People have two sides, just like the moon. Although every time you look up at night, you may see the bright moon hanging high in the sky, thinking that this is all the changes of the moon, but in fact,
There is another half of the moon that will never be seen by most people.
Fei, the general who conquered the west, went to Langzhong to develop some farming technology, but did not expand the attack area, so the war situation in Sichuan and Shu became quiet for a while.
Fei Qian, the general who conquered the West, did not continue to fight, and the big households in Sichuan and Sichuan did not want to fight. The reason is naturally obvious.
As for the Jingxiang Army, Liu Qi doesn't care. He can fight or not. He doesn't have as strong a desire to expand as Liu Biao. He came to Sichuan and Shu just to prove to his father, Liu Biao, that he is not useless. As for what he wants to achieve
It seems that Liu Qi actually has no strategic goals at all in terms of what the final result will be. He is the kind of person who walks with his eyes closed.
Liu Bei didn't want to fight, and was happy to delay the war. Anyway, as long as the money, food, and soldiers from Chengdu in Sichuan and Sichuan continued to flow, it didn't matter if Liu Bei stayed in Sichuan and Shu for three or four years. He would be busy training soldiers every day, and he would be happy.
The only ones who are anxious are the Sichuan-Shu ruling group headed by Liu Zhang, Pang Xi and others.
Don't worry, this food, grass and money will not only provide for your own troops, but also for the Jingzhou Army. When these two aspects are added together, they will flow out like running water day and night...
The key is that when General Zhengxi entered Sichuan, he did not receive any supplements. But now that the war has stopped and Langzhong seems to have become a temporary trade gathering point, many novel affairs have made the big Sichuan and Sichuan households feel happy.
As a result, the troops stationed in the expedition to the west even received a lot of basic supplies due to trade.
Comparing the two, Liu Zhang and Pang Xi naturally had to be anxious.
When people are in a hurry, they tend to do wrong things.
Some mistakes can be undone, but once they are done, some mistakes are irreversible. I wonder if Liu Zhang and Pang Xi regretted the mistakes they made at that moment?
Sudden battles often take people by surprise.
What makes people even more confused is the battle taking place from within...
In the autumn of the fourth year of Yanping, on September 20th, the battle that broke out that night was a huge, chaotic mess for Liu Zhang and Pang Xi, and perhaps they could not understand it or forget it in their lifetime.
For Liu Zhang, because he was still in Chengdu, he was still unaware of the chaos that broke out in the county. Of course, even if Liu Zhang knew about it first, with his understanding and control of the entire battle situation, he would still be unaware of it.
Nothing can be done.
When people come together, they must go through constant trials and running-in before they can form a unified team. However, as long as there is a little carelessness and some subtle changes during this running-in stage, the team will become
A gang, not even a gang.
The army system, once the number of people is large, is huge and huge. In addition, in reality, it cannot be like a game. A soldier holding a flag is considered an army.
The county was not originally very big, but in order to resist the troops of General Zhengxi, so many soldiers were temporarily gathered. Naturally, it was impossible to gather them all in the city. On the north side facing the attack of the troops of Zhengxi, not only the buildings
They also dug trenches and inserted sharp bamboo sticks to form a semi-permanent fortification.
If we talk about Pang Xi, although this person is unknown in history, he can be regarded as a capable minister to Liu Yan in Sichuan and Sichuan. Although Pang Xi may not be able to join a million soldiers on the battlefield.
At the general level, it is not too difficult to arrange military camp defense. From Guanghan to the county, because he has a better understanding of the geographical location, Pang Xi has a secret sentry point every twenty or thirty miles. These sentry posts
The only function of the points is to provide early warning, and once Zhengxi sends troops, it will be impossible for them to completely avoid being noticed by these sentries.
As long as the sentry sends out a warning, the county soldiers and horses can respond immediately, which naturally eliminates the possibility of being attacked. Unfortunately, the larger the scale of fortifications, the less useful they seem to be in actual combat. Pang Xi worked hard
The defense system that was painstakingly deployed was not able to block the surprise attack by Liu Bei and others, because Liu Bei attacked directly from the rear, and the soldiers in the defensive army camp at the front of the county did not even know that everything had settled until dawn.
Already...
Normally, if all Pang Xi's troops were mobilized, Liu Bei might not be able to do anything. However, on the one hand, there was no movement in Guanghan and there was no warning. Naturally, Pang Xi's soldiers in the county also didn't do anything.
How much caution, on the other hand, the backward communication mode of the command system in the Han Dynasty caused Pang Xi to suffer a complete defeat after losing the opportunity to deliver messages and orders immediately, without any chance of recovery.
If there is an omniscient and omnipotent God's perspective, we can see that on this bloody night in the fourth year of Yanping, Pang Xi's army that was affected by Liu Bei's attack actually only accounted for one-tenth of the entire army, and the vast majority
Pang Xi's soldiers were all in panic and waiting, and they became witnesses of this incident at a loss.
The battle first broke out at the west gate of the county.
After an inexplicable chaos, the west gate of the county slowly opened in the night, kicking off the whole chaos and ringing the death knell of Pang Xi.
Almost at the same time, in Liu Bei's camp outside the city, soldiers holding torches rushed out of the camp like fire dragons, then followed the open west gate, went straight into the county, followed the east-west avenue, and rushed toward the county government office.
Yamen, the focus of Pang Xi's command.
In the mountains outside the city, the awakened wild birds were flying randomly in the air and chirping shrilly, whether they were cursing or singing lamentations.
In the military camp closest to the county were the troops led by Pang Xi's most trusted general, and this captain did not let Pang Xi down. After discovering the inexplicable chaos in the county, he immediately assembled his troops.
, bypassing the north of the city, leading the soldiers towards the blazing west gate of the county city.
In the dim night, the light of the torch flickered.
Pang Xi's captain was looking at the fire at the west city gate and hurried forward when he heard some creepy sounds, "Be careful with bows and arrows!"
Immediately, the soldiers screamed one after another. At this moment, someone discovered that at some point in front, a group of people stood up. The leader held up a long knife. Under the moonlight and firelight,
Shining with cold light.
"kill!"
"kill!"
Without any unnecessary nonsense, both sides shouted loudly at almost the same time, directing their soldiers to fight forward.
In the cold moonlight, the long knife flashed like moonlight, and the severed limbs were like colorful falling petals. The blood sprayed out and rippled in the firelight, creating a magnificent brilliance.
Although Pang Xi's captain was loyal, he did not get much attribute bonus from Guan Yu's sword. In the darkness, the soldiers of both sides fought directly face to face. What is more important is that the soldiers themselves are brave and well-trained, and they are waiting for work.
Guan Yu's side had the upper hand, both in terms of individual soldiers and battle formation layout. Coupled with Guan Yu's personal bravery, in the dark night, the rescue operation of Pang Xi's troops was quickly followed by
When the captain's head fell to the ground, the end was announced.
Guan Yu squinted his eyes, watching the surviving Pang Xi soldiers fleeing for their lives in embarrassment under the cover of the night. He snorted contemptuously, then gathered his queue, and did not chase, but continued to guard outside the west city gate...
Thousands of people, even if they are assembled into a military formation, if there is a war, not everyone will be able to understand the specific progress of the war, let alone the camps scattered in various places in the dark, without orders.
The situation is like this. Many people were awakened by the riots, but not many people knew exactly what happened and what to do.
After all, in the military discipline of the Han Dynasty, the general quality of soldiers was just like that, especially at night, if there was a little restlessness, some lax discipline, or the army before and after the war, or even because of the night wandering of an ordinary soldier
Talking in sleep has led to the collapse of the whole camp and the entire army. Therefore, in the camp, night operations are extremely sensitive and strictly prohibited. Therefore, even if many people saw the county
Changes, but most people can still only wait and watch nervously...
"Liu Bei! Liu Xuande!" At the county government office, Pang Xi climbed on the sentry tower on the courtyard wall, gritting his teeth, "I will treat you well! I never thought that you have the heart of a wolf! The way of heaven is clear, where is the justice of heaven!"
Liu Bei did not show any weakness and shouted back: "The way of heaven is clear. When we slaughtered the people of Sichuan and Shu, why didn't we think about the way of heaven? Where is the law of heaven? When we drove the people of Sichuan and Shu, why didn't we talk about the law of heaven? When I led the troops into Sichuan, I thought
The two families are harmonious and join hands to fight against the enemy, but what does Pang Gong do? He made someone pretend to be my third brother, commit a cruel act, and put the blame on someone! Is this the way of heaven for Mr. Pang?!"
When Pang Xi heard that the secret was revealed by Liu Bei, his heart skipped a beat. He felt a little bit regretful on his face. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly remembered that only Li Hui in Chengdu knew this matter best. If he hadn't leaked it here
Going out means being in Chengdu...
Thinking of this, Pang Xi couldn't help but turn pale.
The soldiers around Pang Xi didn't know what was going on, but seeing Pang Xi's expression change, the already panicked soldiers became even more confused...
"Brother Xuande, what are you talking about with such a treacherous villain?" Wu Ban stood beside Liu Bei, raised his sword, and shouted loudly, "We will hoe the traitors and kill the rebels today! We will win the Pang family."
The first one will be rewarded with ten thousand gold!"
Zhang Fei laughed loudly, as if he wanted to vent all the depression he had felt a few days ago. He drank violently and led his soldiers to storm the gate of the county government office.
The arrows from both sides were like locusts, flying across each other in the night sky. The gate of the county government office suddenly became a place of Shura. However, after all, Pang Xi's direct bodyguard did not carry many arrows. After a while, inside the government office,
The arrows were exhausted, and the soldiers led by Zhang Fei who stormed the front gate became more and more morale, and some even began to climb the walls of the government office.
Although Pang Xi's soldiers within the wall were protected by an extra layer of walls, they looked even weaker. Many of them bared their teeth and screamed hysterically at Zhang Fei's soldiers who were coming to kill them, but they did not respond to them.
forward.
The distance between the two sides was only a pitiful isolation zone, which was quickly breached...
Zhang Fei smiled strangely and rushed into the infantry array assembled by Pang Xi at the main entrance of the government office. Like a crazy pile-driving machine, he danced his long spear, with blood bursting and splashing, and all the depression and aggrievedness were wiped out.
, completely released at this moment.
Pang Xi tried to withdraw from the county government office and regroup his troops in the military camp outside the city. However, this behavior caused the soldiers remaining in the government office to collapse faster. Even Pang Xi himself could not escape far.
Being caught up...
Under the night sky, in the county, firelight hovered, shouts shook the sky, blood and corpses were spread in the streets, and in the darkness of the alleys, there were all the defeated soldiers fleeing under Pang Xi. Of course, there were also some brave Pang Xi.
The Xi soldiers fought hard, but in front of the organized troops of Liu Bei and others, it was almost a one-sided massacre.
The troops directly under Pang Xi who were surrounded in the middle of the street were surrounded and encountered such a sudden attack. In the panic, shaken military morale, and great fear, their combat effectiveness was invisibly reduced by three or four points.
After a little resistance, he was washed away and chopped into pieces amidst panic, hysterical shouts and screams!
Pang Xi's guards surrounded Pang Xi, but these guards still could not give Pang Xi any sense of security. The huge pressure caused them heavy casualties, and Pang Xi was terrified. When Zhang Fei stabbed Pang Xi into
Among the last circle of guards, when he heard the sound of broken bones and tendons ringing in his ears, and felt the flying flesh and blood staining his face, Pang Xi finally howled in victory, lost his fighting spirit, and expressed his willingness
surrender……
As Pang Xi's guard blade fell, Zhang Fei's circling and whistling Changshan finally stopped temporarily. The bright red blood spread on the long street, and then was stepped on under Liu Bei's boots.
"Pang Gong!" Liu Bei still smiled gently, as if it was not him who was yelling at the government office before, "I will not disturb the two masters, but I would like to ask Pang Gong to come to the military camp outside the city!"
Zhang Fei laughed, strode forward, grabbed Pang Xi's neck, like holding a chicken, held it in his hand, and dragged him out, "Don't worry, I won't kill you! Go quickly, go quickly! Someone
You will miss my big brother’s time!”
In the light of the fire, Liu Bei was still smiling. I don't know if it was an illusion. Liu Bei's back seemed to be straighter and his eyes were brighter: "After dawn, I rushed to Chengdu.
So I went to Yuanxiong to help..."
"Don't worry, Mr. Xuande. I dare not not try my best!" Wu Ban quickly agreed.
Liu Bei nodded and looked to the horizon, conquering the west, conquering the west. If you hadn't attacked Sichuan and Shu, and then suddenly stagnated, you might not have had such an opportunity to capture Chengdu...
Is this a blessing or a curse?
Liu Bei thought about it, suddenly laughed, and strode forward. Regardless of good or bad luck, he just wanted to be famous all over the world and win a place!
