Completely different from the tense scene on the mountain.
At this moment, Zhang He, who was directing his soldiers to charge one after another towards the top of Zoumaling, was not nervous at all.
But not being nervous does not mean that Zhang He will take it lightly.
"Everything is as Gong Yan said. Sure enough, Liu Beijun's Wei Yan is still determined to be a traitor. It seems that Guangshi needs to be on guard to prevent the opponent's surprise attack after everything is done."
Zhang He stood in front of him wearing his silver armor, pointed with his sword, and under his command, the soldiers under him launched the third charge to the top of the mountain this evening.
The first two surprise attacks without warning were due to Zhang He's relaxed and relaxed tactics. With two casualties of less than 500, Zhang He's army greatly reduced Wei Yan's foothold.
Of course, after that, Wei Yanjun organized a decent defense, which blocked Zhang He and prevented Zhang He from annihilating his own side in one fell swoop.
But, that's all.
If the siege continues like this, Wei Yan will undoubtedly be defeated.
Therefore, Zhang He did not intend to leave any room for Wei Yan to breathe.
"At the mountain sun, send another team, concentrate a little, and attack the opponent's rear. We will attack from both sides. We must find a breakthrough before the sky completely darkens!"
Under Zhang He's stern roar, the generals around him reacted quickly, and an army of two thousand people immediately rallied. Not only did they demonstrate their extraordinary discipline, but they also demonstrated their superiority with Wei Yanjun on the top of the mountain.
Completely different kind of high spirits.
One side relies on anger and despair to drive, while the other side relies on momentum and training to determine the outcome. You can tell who is higher and which is lower at a glance.
It can be said that as long as this team successfully touches the rear of Wei Yan's army, the defense line of Wei Yan's army, which is already tired of dealing with the fierce frontal attack, will most likely collapse in an instant.
"General! General Ma Chao sent intelligence, saying that they...such and such..."
Zhang He, who was close to his side, listened to the new military information coming from his subordinates. When he heard the news came from Ma Chao, who was in the lower position, Zhang He was also a little confused.
However, while listening to the news, Zhang He gradually changed from confusion, to shock, to excitement.
"General Ma Chao really said that?"
"It's absolutely true, this is the handwriting of the military advisor, and it also has traces of the Prime Minister's seal and ribbon——"
The soldier nodded heavily and even took out a handwritten letter from Nanzheng City.
After seeing it, Zhang He no longer had any doubts.
But he still has one question:
"But if General Ma Chao really follows this military order... then go to Bencheng..."
"Because I am worried about General Zhang He's doubts, General Ma Chao specially asked me to tell you..."
Another whisper finally dispelled Zhang He's last worry.
Zhang He's eyebrows were filled with joy, he nodded repeatedly, and said with a smile:
"If this plan can be successful... I believe it will be enough to bring a heavy blow to Liu Bei and the others! I will..."
However, before Zhang He finished speaking, an urgent message came from the mountain again:
Liu Bei's reinforcements have arrived.
After hearing the news, Zhang He suddenly frowned and thought for a moment. Without any hesitation, he made a decisive decision:
"Withdraw troops! Let's return to Guangshi! Leave a few troops stationed in the mountain col for support, so there is no need to confront Liu Bei's army!" So under Zhang He's call, Cao's soldiers, who originally planned to attack Wei Yanjun's position on the top of the mountain from both sides, quickly
They retreated as quickly as they came, as if nothing had ever happened. This made many Wei Yanjun soldiers who were about to fight Cao Jun's force to the death as embarrassed as if they had been punched in cotton.
——
Just as Zhang He heard.
The vanguard generals of Liu Bei's army who were on the frontal battlefield led a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses. They set up strongholds along the way to ensure that the next attack route was clear and they all approached Zoumaling.
After scattered contacts with Zhang He's army, Zhang He quickly retreated, leaving Wei Yan, who was fuming and furious at the top of the mountain.
Just like Cao's army retreating quickly, Wei Yan's anger also subsided like the tide.
After calming down and walking out of the tent, when he saw Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and others standing with the battalion of wounded soldiers, Wei Yan trembled all over - as if he was a different person, and he was about to kneel down to the generals.
Listening to Huo Jun's general remarks along the way, there were countless words in the stomach to blame Wei Yan, but seeing Wei Yan's appearance, everyone suddenly didn't know how to speak.
"Everyone... today... if you hadn't saved me today... Wei Yan... would have become a sinner in the army!"
"I...I hate...I hate that I have no ability, but I insist on going my own way, ruining a good situation...Now looking at this battalion of wounded soldiers, the wounds are on their bodies, and the pain is on my heart...I...I deserve to die!"
There was a snap that even Zhang Fei trembled, and Wei Yan slapped him in the face without any hesitation.
This was good, Zhang Fei's remaining anger disappeared.
As someone who had made mistakes before, Zhang Fei suddenly understood Wei Yan's mood very well.
"The article is long..."
So he took a step forward, squatted next to Wei Yan, patted his shoulder, and put on a helpless face:
"We have all heard what General Zhongmiao said about the matter. You disobeyed military orders, killed the captains in the army, and wanted to attack Guangshi - which ultimately led to this situation."
"But I have experienced the same thing before... So maybe people don't understand you, but I... understand very well - you must want to open up the situation for the army, and you have no selfish intentions... In this way, although you are guilty, you are guilty.
There is also a chance to make amends——"
"Today the crisis has been lifted, and we, the vanguard, have had a bad start. Tomorrow, we will regroup and regain our dignity from Cao Jun! The military advisor and eldest brother are not here, so we should help each other! Only in this way can we resist Cao Jun! Only in this way can we be more capable
Complete the military advisor's orders well!"
"Do you think so?"
As if he had found a soulmate, Zhang Fei thought about the incident where he had killed nearly ten thousand soldiers before, and he felt the same for himself and spoke such heartfelt words.
If it weren't for his extremely rough face, I believe these words would have influenced many soldiers.
Maybe it was so rare that Zhang Fei was like this. Zhao Yun and others couldn't find a chance to refute or criticize for a while. Seeing Zhang Fei and Wei Yan hooking their shoulders and looking quite moved, Zhao Yun had no choice but to say something.
:
"That's all for today..."
"Back in the camp, we must discuss as soon as possible how we will act tomorrow - although we are all defeated today, at least we have figured out some details about Cao's army."
Huo Jun, who was so squeezed in the middle by all the big guys, seemed to not know how to express his feelings for a while.
He nodded stiffly, vaguely feeling that something seemed to have been overlooked by them - but... this feeling could not be put into words for a while.
