Cao Cao first drew out the Yitian Sword and waved it forward. The soldiers behind him all moved forward bravely and rushed towards Zhao Yun.
Suddenly, Zhao Yun sneered, moved his iron spear forward, and fired crossbow arrows from both sides, continuously shooting towards the Wei army. In the darkness, the Wei army could not identify the number of the Chinese army. Seeing that Zhao Yun was on guard, Cao Cao immediately shouted:
: "Return them all to me!"
Zhao Yun stopped when he saw that he was ready, turned around on his horse, and shouted: "Retreat!"
Here Zhao Yun and others quickly got into the darkness. Seeing this, Cao Cao hurriedly led his army to pursue him, thinking that Zhao Yun was courageous. Who knew that after chasing for a while, when they reached the cliff, Zhao Yun and others could no longer be found, as if Zhao Yun and others were like
It's like the world has evaporated.
"Leave a thousand people for me to search until I find the Huaxia Army. It is impossible for the five to six thousand Huaxia Army to disappear without a trace all at once." Cao Cao said because he did not catch Gao Fei and others.
Feeling annoyed and angry, he withdrew his troops.
After Cao Cao and others returned to the camp, Pang Tong was already having people clean up the battlefield. In this battle, a total of more than 6,000 Chinese troops were wiped out, while the Wei army lost more than 8,000 people. It can be said that they were evenly matched.
After entering the Chinese army camp, Cao Cao said regretfully: "I was careless for a moment. I didn't expect that the Chinese army dared to attack the camp at night, resulting in the loss of troops and generals. Now I ask you generals to make corrections as soon as possible and wait until dawn to find the whereabouts of the Chinese army."
, there are so many people, it is impossible for them all to disappear at once, even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, I have to find them."
Suo Xu and others replied in unison: "No!"
Pang Tong asked: "Your Majesty, your troops are very fast, and the 30,000 soldiers and horses left behind are enough to deal with them. Your Majesty should lead the remaining 20,000 soldiers directly to Hanzhong. I believe that the Chinese army does not have many troops in Hanzhong. After taking Hanzhong,
Our army now has a foundation. Firstly, it can block the Chinese troops coming from Qinzhou and Liangzhou, and secondly, it can advance and retreat freely."
After hearing this, Cao Cao nodded and said, "The military advisor is right. I will leave this to Suo Xu. The military advisor will follow me to Hanzhong."
"I obey. Your Majesty, there is one more thing that I need to tell you. Bian Xi, the Minister of Intelligence of the Huaxia Kingdom, has been killed in battle. I don't know how to deal with it?" Pang Tong said.
"Bian Xi? After all, he is also Pi'er's uncle. He was once the uncle of Wei State... Let's bury him well. Without him, the intelligence department of Huaxia State might not be able to operate so fast. This scout leader was also talented and handsome for a while.
, if he could be used by me, how could he end up like this?" Cao Cao sighed, not knowing whether he felt pity for Bian Xi's talent, or was distressed that he had easily believed in Bian Xi in the first place.
Night ends and dawn dawns.
Under the leadership of Yang Teng, Gao Fei arrived at the West Wolf Valley through a secret passage. The valley was very deep. Looking from above, the West Wolf Valley was shrouded in a mist all day long, but at the bottom of the West Wolf Valley, there was something else.
What a view.
Wolf Valley is divided into east and west. The Yang Teng clan lives in the West Wolf Valley, while his younger brother Yang Fei’s clan lives in the East Wolf Valley. People from the Yang family communicate with each other. In the deep and bottomless Wolf Valley, there are scattered
There are about 50,000 to 60,000 Di people living there, all of whom are of the same lineage as Wudu Di people. Since then
After being driven away by Qiang King Cheliji, this group of Di people settled here for almost five years. During these five years, the Di people made the cave their home, hunting creatures near the Wolf Valley, and occasionally running outside of the Wolf Valley.
Looting some food and grass and climbing mountains and ridges were commonplace.
However, the Di people never raise horses because raising horses consumes too much food. The Di people themselves can barely maintain food and clothing, so how can they raise horses? They all raise some animals that are easy to tame in the mountains and live like a primitive tribe.
Although there is a little land at the bottom of the valley, it is impossible to grow crops, so the Di people in Lang Valley have only a single way of life.
After entering the West Wolf Valley, it was already bright. Gao Fei walked in front and looked up at the sky. He saw that the sky was covered with fog and he could not see what was above the sky. There was only a little sunshine at noon.
"Your Majesty, please come in!"
Yang Teng brought Gao Fei to a large house in Wolf Valley. The furnishings inside were very simple. He said to his subordinates with a smile on his face: "Quickly go and inform the tribe that His Majesty the Emperor of China has arrived. Please
Make something delicious."
"Yes, Patriarch." A soldier hurriedly walked towards a corner of the room. He was seen squatting on the ground, knocking the stone on the ground with the weapon in his hand, and making a few hollow dull sounds.
Immediately afterwards, the stone slowly moved away, revealing a long corridor with steps. And Yang Teng's personal soldier went down directly, lit the torch, and disappeared along the corridor.
When Gao Fei entered the West Wolf Valley, he saw nothing except this big house. At this time, he saw that there were other mechanisms in the house, and he couldn't help but be curious about the Di people's lifestyle. From the beginning, Yang
Teng Zai took him into a huge cave on the cliff and walked down the cave for a long, long distance. He felt very strange.
Seeing Gao Fei's curiosity, Yang Teng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, we Di people were forced by the Qiang people and had no choice but to live underground. It took us four and a half years to dig a cave leading from the valley to the top.
, and at the same time at the bottom of the valley for
Just in case, many caves have been dug. Most of the valley floor is made of stone. Under our feet, there is this very deep cave, which extends in all directions and can hide tens of thousands of people. It is connected to the road from Xilang Valley.
East Wolf Valley, please don’t take offense, Your Majesty.”
After hearing this, Gao Fei hurriedly said: "Chief Yang, isn't it very hard for you? In such a difficult environment, on the one hand, you have to dig a cave in the ground, and on the other hand, you have to dig a cave out of the mountain. For such a miraculous cave, you guys
It must have taken a lot of manpower and time.”
Yang Teng sighed and said: "There was originally a road that could go directly to the bottom of the valley. Unfortunately, in order to avoid the pursuit of the Qiang people, we did not hesitate to destroy that road. It was not until a month later that we realized how difficult it was to live at the bottom of the valley. It was surrounded by
The cliffs are so high that many young warriors have tried to climb them.
But none of them succeeded. In the end, we had to give up this stupid idea and resorted to stupid methods. This cost a lot of time and manpower to dig a slope out of the valley. For this reason, we lost 20,000 people in the valley.
In this valley, the death of a large number of young and middle-aged people has also led to the continuous decline of our Di people..."
Gao Fei also sighed after hearing this, but if it weren't for Yang Teng's foolish spirit of moving mountains, I'm afraid they would have been surrounded by Cao Cao today.
While they were talking, Zhao Yun came in from the outside. When he saw Gao Fei, he knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Zilong fell into Cao Cao's treacherous plan by mistake, and now his rescue is too late. I hope your majesty will punish you!"
Gao Fei hurriedly helped Zhao Yun up and said: "You don't have to be like this, I love you. No one can make mistakes without being a sage. Haven't I been raped here by Cao now? My dear, you fell into the abyss and you haven't died yet. I
That's enough. If Aiqing hadn't been in the rear camp today to contain the Wei army's troops and lead the army to cut off the rear, I'm afraid I would have died without a burial place."
After saying that, Gao Fei hugged Zhao Yun, and then his eyes welled up with tears, and he couldn't help but shed tears. This was the first time he shed tears because of a big defeat.
More than 6,000 soldiers of the Chinese Army were in the West Wolf Valley. They heard Gao Fei sobbing loudly in the room. No one knew what the situation was. The generals came to take a look, but saw Gao Fei loose.
Zhao Yun drove away, strode outside, looked around at his subordinates, wiped the tears on his face, and shouted loudly: "Generals of the Chinese Army! I am sorry for you, I have no mercy.
Yes, I can't lead you to kill the enemy, but I was forced to this point by the enemy. If it weren't for Yang Teng, our army would have been buried at the foot of Dingjun Mountain. Since the battle of Dingjun Mountain started, Wuli Deng,
Dian Wu, Bian Xi, Gao Pei, Liu Quan, and Deng Xian were killed one after another, and more than 15,000 troops were lost. These are all my fault. I underestimated Cao Cao and the strength of the Wei army. I am heartbroken..."
"Your Majesty..." At this moment, Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren, Yang Huai, Meng Da and others knelt on the ground one after another. More than 6,000 soldiers all cried bitterly, and the sad voices echoed through the valley, allowing Yang Teng and others to see them.
, everyone was moved by it.
"Your Majesty, we are willing to fight to the death with the Wei army, recapture Dingjun Mountain, and kill the old traitor Cao Cao!" Zhao Yun knelt on the ground and cried.
"We are willing to fight to the death with the Wei army, retake Dingjun Mountain, kill the old traitor Cao Cao, avenge our dead brothers, and show our authority to the emperor!" More than six thousand soldiers shouted in unison.
After hearing this, Yang Teng also felt excited. Although the Chinese army was defeated, they still had confidence. These more than 6,000 soldiers gave him a great shock. He immediately shouted: "Your Majesty, Yang Teng is willing to lead the Di tribe
All the men are driven by the emperor to kill the old traitor Cao Cao!"
When Gao Fei saw this formation, he knew that although the Chinese army was defeated, their backbone was still there, and those who survived were all elites. However, he also knew that he must not mess around. Among the more than 6,000 people now, a large number of
Everyone was injured, and the news of Bian Xi's death was an even greater blow to him. One of his wrong orders caused him to lose his best scout, the old brother who had been following him since he quelled the Yellow Turbans in Hebei.
"The soldiers will win. I must let the old thief Cao Cao pay with his blood. I will avenge the dead soldiers. But now, the Wei army is powerful and our army is too scattered. The reinforcements have not arrived in Hanzhong yet, and they are here."
Recuperate, wait for the opportunity, and then take the Dingjun Mountain by surprise and give the Wei army a heavy blow." Gao Fei said loudly.
