Chapter 160 Under the Battle of Yihan

Zhang Ren led his troops out of Baishui Pass and walked out of Baishui Pass for four days. In the early morning of that day, Zhang Ren stood on a hill and looked at Yangping Pass and frowned.

"Zikan, what's wrong?"

Zhang Ren lowered his head and saw that it was Ling Bao, and said, "Along the way, I always feel uneasy. Before coming, General Liu told me that Pang Gong was too dangerous to use his troops this time. If there is a trap ahead, everything will be over.

We arrived at Yangping Pass less than fifteen miles ahead. We could walk in the afternoon at our speed. I saw that the woods were dense, and I wondered if we set up an ambush here. Once our army was defeated and fled here, we could scare away the bandits with ambush."

When Ling Bao heard this, he felt it was reasonable and laughed and said, "I said yesterday I advised you to go to Yangping Pass in one go, but you didn't want to. It turned out that it was just using this abacus."

Then, if you stay, I will go to Yangping Pass, how about it?"

Zhang Ren thought for a while, shook his head and said, "No, if it is really a trap, Yang Ren will definitely lay heavy troops. If your martial arts skills are not as good as mine, I'd better go."

When Ling Bao heard Zhang Ren say this, he was both angry and funny, but not to mention him, even Yan Yan was not the opponent of the crested gun in Zhang Ren's hand.

The King of Guns in Shu was not given by others, but was fought by Zhang Ren one by one.

Zhang Ren immediately divided his troops, leaving Ling Bao, 1,500 men and most of the bows and arrows. In Zhang Ren's words, if he was ambushed, he would have the only life to be shot, and there would be no chance to shoot others.

Then Zhang Ren led his troops to move forward. After noon, Yangping Pass could be seen vaguely in front of him. Zhang Ren observed the surroundings and found that the sound of birds singing in the forests was very small. Looking at the walls of Yangping Pass, he had already seen them, but there were still only a few dozen people, and he immediately thought to himself that it was not good.

"Stop!!" Zhang Ren swung his gun and ordered the team to stop slowly, and then whispered to him, "There is an ambush, let the brothers be ready."

After saying that, Zhang Ren urged him to come forward, rode alone to the gate, shouting, "I am following the order of Liu Envoy, and follow the Peishui Alliance to deliver food. Please inform me and turn on and switch quickly."

Zhang Ren is not an ordinary man. Since there is an ambush in Hanzhong, he must throw the charge of destroying the Peishui Alliance on Zhang Lu. Therefore, he still pretended to be a food delivery team and shouted to close the door.

Yang Ren, who was closed, looked at Zhang Ren and others under the lockdown, and couldn't help but mutter.

There are too few people here. I thought I could kill tens of thousands of people, but only three or four thousand, and I lost it.

Fortunately, my main force in Hanzhong is not here either!

Some food is better than nothing.

"Hahaha, sending food? When was Luofu of Yizhou so strong?" Yang Ren waved his hand and let the ambush archers appear together, and then shouted, "Your Yizhou bribery of Yang Gong has long been told by Yang Master Jun. Today is the time to die! Shoot the arrows!!"

Before Yang Ren could finish his words, Zhang Ren pulled back, and the arrows fell behind him like rain.

"Retreat! Retreat!!"

Before Zhang Renjun could retreat, countless soldiers and horses appeared on the hills on both sides, covering up and killing them.

Zhang Ren was in his hand, and thousands of men were invincible. He single-handedly opened a bloody road and fled with hundreds of soldiers. Yang Ren led his army to chase after him for more than ten miles. Just when Yang Ren was about to chase Zhang Ren, suddenly the sound of drums on both sides was loud, and arrows were falling like rain, but Ling Bao was ambushing here.

"Yang Ren, where can you escape!"

Seeing that Yang Ren's army was in chaos, Zhang Ren would not miss such a good opportunity. He pulled the horse back and killed Yang Ren and shot Yang Ren's helmet to fly to Yangping Pass with his horse's neck.

Zhang Ren didn't chase him, but just asked someone to quickly report Pang Xi.

When Pang Xi learned that Yang Song not only did not turn on and off, but also used a trick to earn his three thousand elite troops. He was so angry that he was furious and ordered a forced attack on Yangping Pass despite opposition from others.

"We have more than 40,000 people. Even if we use people to pile up, we must level up Yangpingguan!"

Pang Xi actually had trouble. He was suppressing his political life here this time. Once he was defeated, he would not have to sit back when he went back, let alone over Zhao Wei.

Yangping Pass is a natural danger. In order to prevent Liu Zhang, Zhang Lu repaired and strengthened it all year round. Yang Ren was prepared for it. How could it be so easy to fight? Pang Xi fought for several days, losing three or four thousand people, but he could not even see the shadow of capturing Yangping Pass. Instead, morale continued to decline and almost fell to freezing point.

Just when Pang Xi didn't know if he should continue to persevere, Liu Zhang's fast horse lifted the siege for him.

"Retreat the troops? Yangping Pass is right in front of you. If Yangping Pass is captured, it is Nan Zheng. How can you withdraw your troops?"

Pang Xi still wants to persevere in terms of face.

"Hanchang is lost..."

"What?"

Pang Xi snatched the letter handed over by the envoy and read it carefully.

It turned out that Yang Song didn't plan to make any big gains in the direction of Yangping Pass.

After all, the terrain of Taurus Road is like this. As long as one side defends it, even if there are only one or two thousand people, you can still move tens of thousands of soldiers.

Moreover, even if Yang Ren performed extremely well, overthrew Pang Xi and occupied Baishui Pass, there were several important places such as Jiameng Pass behind him, and it would take three or five years to conquer them?

Therefore, Yang Song directly asked Yang Ang to lead his army to cross Micang Mountain and take Hanchang.

Hanchang, which is the Bazhong of later generations, occupied this place and could dive toward Dianjiang and seize Pang Xi's retreat.

At the same time, Yang Song also took out the gold, pearls and jade that Pang Xi gave him and handed it to the Yi Wang Pu Hu of Ba County, the leader of the Jin people Du Bian and others, causing the Yi people in Brazil to rebel, and they were about to threaten Dangqu and other places.

To be precise, Yang Ang has led his army to Dangqu, and after passing Dangqu, he will be Dianjiang.

In the letter, Liu Zhang said that Yan Yan from Dianjiang had led his army north, but Yan Yan's troops had been transferred too much for Pang Xi, so it was difficult to win, so Pang Xi asked him to withdraw his troops as soon as possible and return to defend Ba County.

Pang Xi touched his head and felt dizzy. He never expected that he would be cheated so miserably by a fat man.

What about being greedy for money?

What about the incompetent person who promised to be?

Pang Xi did not dare to fight again and withdrew his troops to Baishui Pass overnight. Yang Ren would not make Pang Xi so relaxed. Naturally, he followed and chased him all the way. Fortunately, Zhang Ren cut off the rear, so the army suffered little losses.

But when Pang Xi returned to Baishui Pass and counted it, he lost more than 10,000 troops during the battle. Although Yan Yan defended Dangqu, he also suffered a lot of losses and was unable to recover the lost ground.

This battle can be said to have ended with Liu Zhang's complete failure. Pang Xi returned to Chengdu and claimed his fault. For the purpose of checking and balancing Zhao Wei, Liu Zhang divided Ba County into three, namely Yongning County, Guning County and Ba County, and asked Pang Xi, Zhao Wei and Yan Yan to lead one county each.
