Cao Cao crosses Wu Dalang

Chapter 467

But he said that Tong Guan won Hangzhou that day. Although he won, all three armies were injured, especially the generals who lost a lot. At the same time, he rested and made people rush on the road at night to urge Qin Feng and Hedong soldiers to come to Hangzhou to join his main force. confluence.

On the next day, when I learned that Xin Xingzong had led his troops to kill and had not returned, he became more worried and sent many scouts to search for him. He secretly resented him for not hearing from him for several days.

Three or four days later, Ma Gong led the Qin Feng army and Ji Jing led the Hedong soldiers to arrive one after another. They reported that Jiangyin, Changshu and other places were all peaceful, and all the rebel guards were beheaded. Tong Guan was overjoyed.

Another day, Tong Guanai led Zhao Tan's troops to Hangzhou. When Tong Guan met him, he talked about the previous battle situation. Zhao Tan heard that the most powerful generals in the army had been defeated one after another, and immediately shouted: "Master, you don't need young generals." As a vanguard, even those incompetent people lost their vigor, if they had used young generals earlier, Fang Qifo, Shibao and the thieves would have been given the leadership for a long time."

Yao Pingzhong, Yang Keshi, Liu Guangshi and others were furious and wanted to throw their old fists at each other. Zhao Tan sneered sneeringly, and Wang Chinsu had some friendship with him, so he hurried forward to persuade him to make peace.

Zhao Tan took the opportunity to invite him to be the vanguard, and Tong Guan twirled the thirteen beards of Ai Ruo Bao, thought for a while, and nodded in response: "Zhao Tan, I know you have extraordinary martial arts skills, but there are also good fighters among the rebels. If you go out to fight, remember not to be careless."

He led Zhao Tan to lead troops to serve as the vanguard. Wang Ting knew that Mingjiao had many brave generals, and he was afraid that he would underestimate the enemy, so he asked to be the deputy vanguard.

Tong Guan left 5000 men to guard Hangzhou, and raised 13 soldiers. With Zhao Tan and Wang Zhi as the vanguard, they attacked Muzhou.

After walking along the road for two days, Xin Xingzong came leading the defeated generals. Zhao Tan stepped forward to follow him. Seeing him in a panic, he immediately taunted him, but Xin Xingzong was not easy to bully. , Xin led three thousand troops and went deep into the enemy's belly. It happened that the anti-thief prince Fang Tianding led one hundred thousand troops to rob Hangzhou. Xin fought with him for three days, defeated dozens of times the stubborn enemy, and captured the enemy chieftain Fang Tianding. Hehe, If you really want to brag in front of Xin, go get Fang La!"

It turned out that Wei Heng and the dead Wu Sheng and Jiang Yin were originally bandits who robbed the stronghold of Tianmu Mountain. They called him "Three Owls of Tianmu" in the southeast area. Later, they voted for Fang La and were sent to guard Dusong Pass. Most of the soldiers under his command have been with him for many years. Although their combat power is not outstanding, they are willing to submit to his three jurisdictions.

Wei Heng half-believingly said: "General Tang, don't harm me. Now they are all frightened birds, and the officers and soldiers will collapse at the first touch."

With a wave of his long knife, he led his troops straight to kill, Wei Heng's defeated soldiers all had their souls killed, it was rare to be able to stop, now dare to confront him?One by one, he was about to flee, Wei Heng's eyes were also darkened, thinking that I would risk my life to write to you, who knew you were thinking such a stupid plan!He yelled sadly: "General Tang, let's play off, let's go!"

This group of southern troops was the defenders of Dusong Pass. They were ordered to withdraw to Muzhou. They were caught off guard by Zhao Tan, and they rushed into chaos in an instant.

Ignoring Wei Heng's astonishment as he spoke, he picked up his horse and walked out. He laughed three times to meet the officers and soldiers who were rushing, and shouted loudly: "Dog officers and soldiers, I have tricked me into defeating the ambush! Today I teach you that a horse can't win!" Live away."

Immediately, in the forest on the left, a big black man stripped naked, wearing a green-faced Zhong Kui mask, wielding two axes in his hands, came out like a whirlwind, and a man with a plain knife behind him led many soldiers shouting to kill, the dense forest Among them, it was impossible to see exactly how many soldiers and horses there were.

Zhao Tan was greedy for meritorious deeds, so he was willing to give up. He tightly bit his tail and killed them. The two sides chased and fled, and soon arrived at the place where Lao Cao and others were, but neither Zhao Tan nor Wei Heng noticed their actions. Every movement is in the eyes of others.

Tang Fengshi sighed: "The 24 Flying Generals were so famous at the beginning, and now there are only eight left alive. How can Tang Mou have the ability to avenge you? I still need to find another expert."

Tang Fengshi was also worried that these defeated soldiers would lose their courage and refused to obey orders, but now they all stopped, and he was overjoyed: "Brother Wei has trained well! He really deserves the name of 'Tianmu Sanxiao'."

They ran away while talking, Tang Fengshi saw that they were running farther and farther, anxious in his heart, suddenly grabbed Wei Heng's bridle, forcibly stopped the horse, and shouted: "I have no grievances or hatred with you, isn't it hurting yourself? Listen Once I return, I will give you a credit."

Tang Fengshi swung his broadsword and shouted: "We Mingjiao heroes, how can we retreat before the battle."

Tang Fengshi shouted: "If I'm not sure, should I run out to die? They don't need to fight, they just need to stand still."

Tang Fengshi turned his lips away, and then expressed his sincerity: "Brother Wei, if you want to survive, you only need to listen to me! And tell your brothers to turn around and fight."

Guo Chong in the Western Jin Dynasty wrote "Five Things about Tiao Liang", which recorded five anecdotes about Zhuge Liang. The third one was the empty city plan to scare Sima Yi away. Zhao Tanpo had read some books, so he said this.

Wei Heng said with a bitter face: "When I win the fight, how could I escape here?"

After saying that, he led his troops to go away proudly, and went to report to Tongguan. Zhao Tan was so angry that he cursed, and then ordered everyone to speed up the march: "Follow me to catch Fang La, and then we will see how this guy sells his mouth."

Therefore, when Wei Heng called to stop, although these soldiers were terrified, they were all obedient and stopped. In this section alone, they were much stronger than many Song soldiers.

While running wildly, a horse suddenly sprang out from the stabbing. Wei Heng was shocked, he raised his spear quickly, and the knight immediately shouted: "Brother Wei, don't you recognize Tang? Where are Wu and Jiang?"

On the next day, when he was marching, he suddenly saw a group of horses emerging from the nearby mountain road. There were more than soldiers, all dressed in the uniform of the Southern Army.

The more he talked, the more complacent he became, and he wished he could swing a feather fan up and down a few times. Fortunately, the big knife he used was also broad, so he turned it upside down and used the knife as a fan, and slapped his face a few times—only the handle was too long. , it is really difficult to be elegant.

Seeing his posturing, Zhao Tan was furious in his heart, and yelled: "Jiaoliang clown, you dare to play these ghost tricks in front of our army, and today I caught you and chopped it into a hundred pieces! All soldiers, kill me!"

Wei Heng couldn't help being sentimental when he heard the words, and said bitterly: "Brothers for more than ten years, Yin and Yang are separated today. I only look at your general Tang's means. If you can avenge my two elder brothers, why not give this life to you."

As if being killed by lightning, Wei Heng was shocked and said, "Why did the Fangzuo envoy tear down the pass?" Then he complained: "In this way, it's because Fang Qifo misled me that I can't escape this time!"

There were 500 people under Wei Heng's command. At this time, there were only a few thousand people left. He knew that Wulong Ridge was ahead, and he thought it would be prudent to rush into the pass.

Tang Fengshi was nicknamed "Death Scholar". Although he had never had a real examination for fame, he had read a few unofficial histories and often boasted that he could speak eloquently. Otherwise, why would Lao Cao send him to stop the defeated army?Hearing that Zhao Tan knew some allusions, he was overjoyed immediately, and said with a smile: "Since you know Zhuge Kongming, you should know that he is proficient in strange arithmetic, but I, a 'killing scholar', is also quite good at this. , I calculated with my fingers, I knew you were coming today, so I ambushing thousands of troops, just waiting for you to come and die."

Dozens of horses rushed straight down the slope, the leader stood on the pedals and shot wildly with his bow. This Wei Heng knew him, but he was the "White Eagle" Bei Yingkui.

The three southern generals fought hard, but they were unable to turn the tide. Wu Sheng was beheaded by Wang Bin, Jiang Yin was killed by Zhao Tan, and the remaining Wei Heng saw that it was not his head, so he ran out of the way.

The officers and soldiers were not stupid. Seeing the enemy fleeing and stopping suddenly, they felt something was wrong, and they all slowed down. At this moment, they were even more surprised when they heard Tang Fengshi's words, and looked around subconsciously—— They are all hills and forests. If there is an ambush, it seems very likely.

Tang Fengshi didn't answer, but hurriedly said: "You want to escape to Wulongling? The pass there has been dismantled by the Fang Zuo envoy. If you expect to go there and stick to it, you will die yourself."

This guy Wei Heng was a bit daring, he gritted his teeth, and shouted: "Stop, stop, the reinforcements have arrived, there is no need to run away!"

Wei Heng was stunned by him for a moment, thinking that this man really had a bit of courage, he was about to turn around and run away, when he suddenly heard a thunderous roar: "The dog officers and soldiers are going crazy, you know that Liangshan heroes are here! "

On the hill on the right, someone also shouted: "Dog officers and soldiers, Mingjiao heroes are also here, and the whole group is here!"

Only then did Wei Heng recognize that he was the "death-killing scholar" among the 24 flying generals, and said happily, "General Tang, why are you here? Both of them were murdered by officers and soldiers, and my younger brother escaped by chance."

Zhao Tan and Wang Ting rushed to the front of the battle, Zhao Tan said angrily: "Don't you fart, his army is clearly passing by temporarily and was intercepted by me, do you have eyes from the front and back? Do you know how to lie down here? You imitate Zhuge Liang's empty city strategy, but this general is not Sima Yi!"

If these ambush soldiers were killed earlier, the officers and soldiers might still be able to resist. However, after Zhao Tan and Tang Fengshi had a dispute, everyone thought that there was no ambush, but many people were killed, and they couldn't help being even more flustered: the rebel said he counted us. Come here, is it true?

But Wang Ting was still calm. Looking at it from both sides, the ambush was only a few hundred people, and he immediately shouted: "Don't make a mess, there are not many enemies, let's form an formation to kill the enemy!"

As soon as he said a word, he suddenly saw a man from the enemy cavalry, wearing a five-color mask on his face, wielding a single sword in his hand, and quickly killed him. Shocked, he cried out, "Oh, it's you again!"

The real one is: flags are waved outside Wulong Ridge, and the setting sun is bathed in blood.Bitter killing sounds shook the ground, stirring up dust and flying around the forest.
