Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Chapter 796: Retreat to the sword pavilion

Chapter 796

After the news of Yan Yan's "surrender" was brought into Jiangzhou City by a hundred prisoners, the guards in the city were naturally in a mess.

Yan Yan is a famous general in Shu, even he surrendered. What else can we hold on?

But Zhang Jai did not give the soldiers in the city a chance to think, but immediately mobilized the army to storm Jiangzhou City.

"kill!"

The Liangzhou Army successively attacked Fuling City and Wagon Village, and their morale was booming. Especially after Ma Teng and Zhang Jai joined forces, their troops exceeded 20,000, and their morale increased greatly. Then they led the army to attack Jiangzhou City, and It is besieged from all sides.

Whoosh whoosh!

Arrows fell like rain, and under the fierce attack of tens of thousands of soldiers of Liangzhou Army, the defenders in Jiangzhou City felt that the pressure increased greatly, and the city was almost about to be captured by the enemy.

That night.

"Lieutenant Lei, this Jiangzhou City can't stay anymore."

"Yes, if this continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on to the next day."

"Lieutenant Lei, retreat!"

Lei Tong nodded helplessly as Lieutenant under the account and Sima were making a big noise, "Three shifts tonight, lead the army to break through."

That night, the night was thick, and the gate of Jiangzhou City opened, and more than two thousand Yizhou troops rushed out of it.

"Don't worry about the Liangzhou army, withdraw quickly!"

Thunder Tong yelled, and more than 2,000 Yizhou troops also knew that the situation was critical. They only took three days of dry food with them, and they killed them lightly.

However, this time the Liangzhou Army was besieged from all sides, and there were numerous barriers everywhere, so the Yizhou Army couldn't kill it urgently. Instead, the Liangzhou Army was awakened in sleep.

"Ma Zhenbei, it seems that the Yizhou army is planning to break through."

Zhangja riding on the horse, said to Ma Teng beside him.

Ma Teng laughed: "Our army is ten times as large as the enemy, and we are fighting hard. If the enemy can break through, wouldn't our army be a joke?"

Zhang Jai nodded approvingly, instead of leading the army to fight, but fighting with Ma Teng, sitting and watching Lei Tong led the Yizhou army in the formation.

"kill!"

Lei Tong led the Yizhou army in the Liangzhou army battlefield, but couldn't kill it anyway. The black-clad and black-clad Liangzhou army was everywhere, just like the tide, the Yizhou army can move. Instead, the space becomes less and less.

Lei Tong looked back and found that there were only less than a thousand soldiers left in the two thousand Yizhou soldiers. The rest of them didn't know if they were killed in the battlefield or were dispersed.

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer fighters under his command, Thunder Copper couldn't help but sighed and threw the spear in his hand to the ground: "Okay, let's drop it!"

Seeing that Thunder Tong dropped the sword in his hand, the Yizhou soldiers behind him also dropped the sword one after another.

As Lei Tong led his army to surrender, Jiangzhou City naturally fell.

Although most of the military horses were captured, many soldiers also escaped, so the news naturally spread.

Jia Mengguan.

"What? Jiangzhou City fell, and General Yan surrendered?"

Zhang Ren looked at the information in front of him with a look of disbelief, and Deng Xian and Leng Bao beside him looked at each other in disbelief.

Jiangzhou City is an important town in Bashu, and General Yan is a famous general in Shu, how is this possible?

"Is this news true?" Zhang Ren still couldn't believe it, so he wanted to make further confirmation.

"It was our sergeant who had escaped from Jiangzhou City who told the news. If the general governor doesn't believe it, just ask him to inquire."

Zhang Ren almost summoned the person to inquire, and then his face was covered with frost. Deng Xian has been with Leng Bao and Zhang Ren for a long time. Seeing his look, I don't know what happened.

"General Governor, Jiangzhou City really fell?"

Zhang Ren nodded slowly: "Probably so."

"Ugh..."

Zhang Ren's face was stern. His previous plan was very clear, which was to stick to Jiameng Pass and defeat the spirit of the Liangzhou Army. The Liangzhou army came from a long way, and it was not easy to transport grain and grass from the plank road, and the loss rate was quite high. The Liangzhou army who entered Yizhou for combat had a total of 60,000 to 70,000 people. The state army will naturally retreat without fighting.

But there is a prerequisite, that is, the way for Liangzhou army to enter Sichuan must be kept. Jiameng Pass and Jiangzhou City belong to the same front. As long as two troops are sent to guard Jiameng Pass and Jiangzhou City respectively, Yizhou will be solid.

However, the loss of Jiangzhou City means that the Liangzhou Army outside Jiangzhou City can take advantage of the situation and attack the back of Jiameng Pass. At that time, Jiameng Pass will be flanked by Liangzhou Army. The main force of will be confined in Jiameng Pass, as if trapped in a quagmire, difficult to extricate themselves.

After thinking about it, Zhang Ren finally made up his mind: "Send the order to the entire army and we will withdraw from Jiameng Pass tonight, but we must plant the grass man and torch on the top of the city, so that Liu Ye will not see that our army has retreated."

"General Governor, is our army really going to retreat?"

Deng Xian said anxiously: "This Jiameng Pass is an important town in Yizhou. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. How to give up to Liu Ye like this?"

"This governor is also helpless."

Zhang Ren explained: "Jiangzhou City has fallen. Liangzhou Army can go northward and directly behind our army at any time. Jia Mengguan will fall into the hands of the enemy sooner or later. It would be better for a strong man to break his wrist!"

Zhang Ren walked to the map and stared at him: "After our army led the army to withdraw from Jiameng Pass, we evacuated all the way south to Jiange to reinforce the city's defenses. The enemy's fronts must be blocked outside the Jiange. Please send people to Jiange to send troops and horses."

Seeing that Zhang Ren had decided, Deng Xian and Leng Bao had no choice but to say yes, and then they went to prepare separately.

That night, the Yizhou Army quietly opened the south gate of Jiameng Pass and withdrew quietly, but the Liangzhou Army did not notice it, and waited until dawn on the next day to see the top of the city. All the Yizhou soldiers had become grass men, so after consulting Liu Ye, they rushed directly into Jiameng Pass. As expected, there was no one to stop them along the way, and they soon occupied Jiameng Pass.

"Wenhe, when do you think Zhang Ren withdrew from Jiameng Pass?"

Liu Ye and Jia Xu were walking on the head of Jia Meng Pass, and he spoke to Jia Xu.

"It should be last night."

"Then why do you see Zhang Ren retreating suddenly?" Liu Ye asked with a smile again.

Jia Xu thought about it for a moment and replied: "It should have been a breakthrough in Ma Zhenbei and Zhang Zhennan. Jiangzhou City was taken down. Zhang Ren is afraid that our army will be attacked back and forth, so he led the army back.

As soon as the words fell, one of the soldiers hurried forward and shouted: "General, great victory! Ma Zhenbei and Zhang Zhennan broke through Jiangzhou City and broke thousands of enemies!"

Liu Ye and Jia Xu smiled at each other, and said, "Jia Wenhe is indeed an exhaustive plan."
