Guanghan County, south of Guanghan County, Lianyun Plank Road.
Bai Xiaowen led Yuan's army in ambush, waiting for the arrival of Liu Bei's army.
During this period, Bai Xiaowen also explained the reason to his teammates.
"The Art of War says, 'Use the imaginary to make it real, and the real thing to use imaginary', but the principle of using imaginary troops depends on the opponent.
"For example, this time I pretended to attack Zhuge Liang, but my real strategic intention was to lure Liu Bei out of Luocheng.
"Now Liu Bei's army has a military advisor like Xu Shu, who is relatively resourceful. So I set up a false flag camp outside Luocheng and pretended that I had not left yet to conduct strategic deception. When Xu Shu saw that the camp was empty, he would think that my camp was empty.
The real intention was to attack Zhuge Liang, so he would naturally persuade Liu Bei to leave Luocheng and rush to Jiameng Pass to support him.
"If it weren't for Xu Shu, I definitely wouldn't do this. Liu Bei might not be able to see the purpose of my false camp. Wouldn't that be like showing my cute eyes to a blind man? On the contrary, I will make a big splash and break camp under Liu Bei's nose.
March north and ask Liu Bei to raise troops to support Zhuge Liang."
Finally, Bai Xiaowen concluded: "In short, when Liu Bei leaves Luocheng, he must pass through the Lianyun Plank Road. Our army has the advantage in strength and is ambushed, so we can say that we are sure of victory. The only thing we can worry about is Zhuge Liang coming to reinforce, but I also have a backup plan."
Recruit to deal with it.”
Seeing that his two teammates, Li Shuyi and Cecilia, were doubtful, Bai Xiaowen unfolded a geographical map of mountains and rivers.
Zhuge Liang couldn't find it, but Liu Bei could still find it.
Bai Xiaowen checked the positions of Liu Bei, Zhao Yun, and Huang Zhong successively, and found that three red dots were lined up and moving towards the Lianyun Plank Road.
At this moment, Li Shuyi and Cecilia were convinced.
Bai Xiaowen counted the time, released the raven messenger, and gave instructions to Han Xu, who was far away in Zhi County, asking him to raise his troops and enter Jiameng Pass.
Bai Xiaowen issued this order, which was also based on Zhuge Liang's level of intelligence and strategy.
If Liu Bei was ambushed and Zhuge Liang was still unaware of it, he would not be worthy of the title of the first military advisor of the Three Kingdoms, nor would he be worthy of the deified historical image of a wise man and a monster.
Based on Bai Xiaowen's speculation, Zhuge Liang will definitely rush over to rescue Liu Bei. Han Xu will follow up in time and join the battlefield, which can also play a role as a new force.
…
Liu Bei's army was divided into three parts: Huang Zhong and Wei Yan led the first army as the vanguard; Liu Bei led Xu Shu, Jian Yong and others to control the middle army; Zhao Yun cut off the rear.
Of course, Liu Bei's army only had 30,000 men, and the formation was not spread too far. The vanguard, center, and rear were only one or two miles apart.
Xu Shu was beside Liu Bei and looked at the terrain ahead. He saw towering rock teeth, protruding peaks, strange cypresses, and green apes living among them. He was slightly startled and asked, "What kind of land is this?"
A soldier from Chuanzhong said: "This place belongs to Guanghan County, and in front is the Lianyun Plank Road."
Liu Bei asked: "Yuanzhi, what's wrong?"
Xu Shu said: "My lord, I see that the terrain of the Lianyun Plank Road is dangerous. There are mountains on both sides, and the middle aisle can only accommodate a few riders side by side. If Yuan Jun ambushes from both sides, our army will definitely be in danger."
Liu Bei said: "Yuan Xi's real goal should be to attack Kong Ming's reinforcements and recapture the two passes. If he wanted to lure our army into pursuit and then set up an ambush, he would not have set up a suspicious formation in the northern camp of Luocheng and used a false flag."
Xu Shu shook his head and said: "My lord, the truth is the best thing for a military strategist. If our army's reaction is all in Yuan Xi's calculations, then it is very possible that he pretends to attack Kongming and actually comes to gain our army.
"
Liu Bei frowned and said, "What can I do?"
Xu Shu asked for a geographical map of Xichuan from Liu Bei. After reading it, he said: "It is not necessary to walk on the Lianyun Plank Road. Our army can take a detour and go along the Han River and pass through Deyang County."
Liu Bei took the geography map, frowned and said, "If we go this way, we will have to go around three hundred miles."
Xu Shu insisted: "My lord, don't worry about hard work. Now it's more important to be cautious."
Liu Bei nodded and said: "In that case, let's go around the plank road. The terrain in the middle of Shu is so steep."
So Liu Bei's army sent orders from level to level, changing the front army to the rear army and preparing to make a circuitous route.
Suddenly shouts rang out and drums beat loudly. A troop of soldiers and horses rushed up from both sides, each under the banner of "Xiliang Ma Chao" and "Hejian Zhang He", and rushed towards Liu Bei's middle army!
Before the two armies engaged in battle, two rows of crossbowmen stood up on the cliff, and arrows fell one after another.
Liu Bei's army suddenly broke into chaos, and their morale dropped slightly. Fortunately, Liu Bei's army only had Huang Zhong as the vanguard, and Wei Yan's troops entered the Lianyun plank road. The middle army and the rear army were still outside, so they did not fall completely into the trap; otherwise, the morale value would have dropped significantly.
As for the troops of Ma Chao and Zhang He, they originally waited for Liu Bei's army to enter the plank road and cut off the retreat, but now they can only rush out as the vanguard to destroy Liu Bei's formation.
Zhang He has already activated his lord skill to change the formation, and his spearmen formed an arrow formation. The entire army's attack power and movement speed increased by 15%, and they plunged into Liu Bei's middle army.
Ma Chao, on the other hand, was more clean and tidy. He led his cavalry to accelerate halfway, and then launched the Lord Skill to charge into the formation! Thousands of cavalry rushed into Liu Bei's army with a terrifying bloody light.
Huang Zhong and Wei Yan's vanguard army in front were naturally covered and attacked by the Yuan Army's archers commanded by Cecilia. They could only defend passively, causing casualties. Moreover, the terrain inside the plank road was narrow, and Liu Bei's soldiers trampled on each other, making it difficult to
Turn around.
Liu Bei's middle army was attacked by two powerful lord-level generals who had been charging for a long time. It was also in chaos. More powerful generals such as Gao Lan, Han Meng and others appeared and led their troops to slash and kill, shouting to capture Liu Bei alive!
"Yuan Jun is indeed ambushing here!" Liu Bei hurriedly pulled out his double swords and shouted loudly, "You guys fight to the death, there is no way to survive by escaping!"
A clear light spread, and many soldiers in Liu Bei's army regained a certain morale. This was Liu Bei's "Fu Jun" skill taking effect. Many soldiers relied on Liu Bei's banner to form a formation, trying to stop Yuan's army.
Later, Bai Xiaowen's Yan Gong banner appeared, and Cao Hong led his elite soldiers to join the battle.
Bai Xiaowen's commander's cloak "Command Roar" and Raging Claw's Heart of the Wolf active skill were all released in one encounter. Even the precious number of uses of "Iden's Horn" was used here by Bai Xiaowen.
Now is not the time to be stingy with props. If Liu Bei is taken down, Xichuan will be in Bai Xiaowen's palm; the greater significance is that the Sun-Liu alliance will no longer exist!
Bai Xiaowen's mental power is divided into multiple strands, connecting Zhang He, Ma Chao, Gao Lan, Han Meng, Cao Hong and other generals to coordinate the overall situation and dispatch them to attack in different directions, trying to disrupt Liu Bei's army's formation and make it
