After Shan Banner and the Jin army merged, he ordered Situ Chou to lead 30,000 troops and rush towards the capital in a mighty manner.
Danqi had just wiped out the 15,000 men and horses of the Prince Dynasty and burned his general Wei Ge to death. At this moment, the military strength was gradually rising. Therefore, this battle is also huge and fierce.
Sun Wu arrived at Qianyi in advance and did not advance rashly. Instead, he went around to the rear of Qianyi. He followed only 2,000 people and stationed himself behind Qianyi. He arranged for 6,000 people to ambush in the valleys on both sides.
When the garrison in Qianyi learned that Situ Chou would lead an army to come to the rescue, they also ordered people to go to the valley to check the enemy's situation. After all, they also knew that Li Ran was the most cunning and cunning, and Sun Wu was the best at taking things by surprise.
But the scouts he sent were completely unable to distinguish the enemy's situation in the valley. Only because Sun Wu used another trick to deceive the enemy, he asked the soldiers in the rear to use horses to pull the branches and raise dust, so as to confuse the enemy into thinking that they had a large number of people in the sneak attack on the front city.
Sun Wu's move seemed risky, but in fact it was based on the calculation that the former defender did not dare to act rashly. Because Fan Li also led his troops to Qianyi at almost the same time, Fan Li divided the ten thousand into three groups. Three thousand formed a force approaching the city, two thousand were placed on the left and right of Qianyi, and the rest were all moved to the rear and joined by Sun Wu. The six thousand ambushes gathered in one place.
The ambush set up in the valley amounted to 10,000 people. After Situ Chou learned that Qianyi had been surrounded, he slowed down his march and stopped dozens of miles away from Qianyi.
After discussion, Fan Li and Sun Wu decided to let Chu Dang lead an army to attack Qianyi, with a total of 5,000 people. In fact, this sheep attack did not have much impact on Qianyi.
But it also made the defenders of Qianyi dare not rush out of the city to meet Situ Chou's reinforcements, so they had to defend there tightly.
On the other side, Situ Chou learned the news. Because there was a valley in the middle, he didn't know the situation of Qianyi. He only knew that Qianyi was besieged, and he sent troops this time to attack the prince dynasty, and he was determined to win. . Unexpectedly, he was blocked near Qianyi. How could Situ Chou endure this?
So he immediately ordered ten thousand troops to go to the rescue, but unexpectedly he was ambushed in the valley. Fortunately, Situ Chou was not a reckless person. He had already thought of the possibility of being ambushed, so they were already prepared to retreat at any time.
However, 10,000 of them retreated, but they didn't know that the oriole was behind them again. How could Sun Wu not have second-hand preparations at this time? After the enemy entered the valley, he personally led his troops outside the valley to encircle them.
I saw him taking the lead, standing on the chariot, shouting and charging.
Situ Chou's 10,000-strong army was obviously unprepared for this. How could they have expected that Sun Wu would be so fast and complete the outflanking of their retreat in just a moment. For a time, these ten thousand people rushed out of the valley and trampled on each other, causing heavy losses.
On the other side, Fan Li and Chu Dang attacked the city. Although it was a sheep attack, the rush car still came in handy. After all, Chu Dang was only a man of brute strength and had no knowledge of the art of war. Seeing that there were many casualties among the people guarding the car in front of him, he didn't care. When his brain became hot, he rushed forward.
"No sir! General Sun only asked us to attack, but he never asked us to take this city!"
"Never mind that! Follow me to capture the city gate first!"
So, Chu Dang puffed up his armor and stomach, raised his distinctive Sange Ji and waved it, and rushed under the charging car.
Everyone on his left and right were afraid that Chu Dang would make a mistake if he advanced rashly, so they had no choice but to protect him and rush to the bottom of the city with him, continuing to hold up their shields to cover Chu Dang's collision with the city gate.
"Bang!...Bang!"
There were loud and dull noises, which shocked the hearts of the defenders in the city to the point of splitting their livers and gallbladders. They did not dare to come close to stop them, so they could only keep shooting arrows down on the city wall.
Chu Dang charged for a while, seeing no results, and became a little anxious. But at this moment, the arrow rain actually slowed down a little.
It turned out that the back gate and both sides of Qianyi were attacked by Sun Wu and Fan Li at the same time!
As the first duel between Sun Wu and Situ Chou was successful, Sun Wu saw that the morale of the other side was low, so he immediately ordered his people to shout "Qianyi has been defeated"!
On the other hand, Sun Wu did not continue the pursuit. Instead, he turned around and continued to attack the back gate of Qianyi. At the same time, he sent people disguised as defeated troops to retreat into Qianyi. Spread the news that Situ Chou's army has fled.
Fan Li also made a prompt decision and ordered the soldiers on the flanks to join the siege.
However, this Situ Chou was not an easy person. After learning that his 10,000 men were defeated, he not only did not withdraw his troops immediately, he did not even climb up to wait and see. After hearing the news that Qianyi had been captured, he immediately personally led the remaining 20,000 troops and launched another offensive.
At this time, Sun Wu and Fan Li were cooperating with each other to attack the city from front to back. Unexpectedly, it turned out that Situ Chou was also a man who knew the soldiers. A counterattack came, which made Sun Wu somewhat confused.
Chu Dang was ramming his chariot against the city gate at the front gate. There were soldiers holding up shields to protect him in case any arrows missed and hit Chu Dang. Chu Dang was so powerful that he could hold up several people with one person. Under the repeated collision of the chariot, he fell. The city gate was finally broken open.
As the city gate opened, another stream of water shot out from the city. Chu Dang was accidentally hit by an arrow in his shoulder, but he didn't care. After opening the hole a little wider, he jumped straight in. Holding his Sange halberd, he roared directly into the enemy's formation like a ferocious beast coming out of its cage. .
On the other hand, Sun Wu was attacked from both sides and gradually became unable to resist and became defeated. Sun Wu could not help but shout loudly, trying to revive the morale of the soldiers. However, on this battlefield, the noise is endless, and it is probably difficult to hear what the other party is saying within ten meters, let alone Sun Wu's shouting. Seeing that he was about to face a big defeat, at this moment, the back door actually opened wide!
Sun Wu took a closer look and saw that Chu Dang was coming to help! This guy, he actually fought all the way from the front door to the back door!
When Sun Wu saw this, he was immediately shocked. When the soldiers saw their own people suddenly rushing out of the city, their morale became much more stable amidst the noise.
Then he saw Sun Wu standing on a high place, and the messenger soldiers beside him were waving flags, telling them to withdraw into the city quickly.
Immediately, a group of soldiers poured into the city, and Situ Chou's army followed closely, but Chu Dang was still leading his army to resist the rear. It can be said that one man can hold a barrier and no one can open it. I saw him holding a three-god halberd, one of which was worth ten. Although his body was lost, he was not at all disadvantaged. Seeing this, the enemy army was as if they saw a fierce tiger blocking the road, and they did not dare to stop. Approached rashly.
Chu Dang and Sun Wu fought and retreated, and finally retreated into the city. Fan Li was also cleaning up the city and quickly repaired the front gate.
Sun Wu ordered people to guard the back door. Situ Chou saw that the opponent had taken the front city and his morale was high, but his side had no intention to fight. In desperation, he could only withdraw his troops.
Sun Wu's losses in this battle were really not small. Fortunately, Fan Li and Chu Dang broke through the city in time, otherwise he might have suffered a big loss this time.
Situ Chou gathered the remaining soldiers and generals, but only more than 10,000 people were left. For a moment, I didn't know whether to retreat or to advance. The city of Qianyi was destroyed, and Sun Wu and Fan Li must have many troops. It would be useless to continue fighting here.
Situ Chou also knew that Sun Wu was difficult to deal with. In addition, Dongyu, not far away, was also under their control. After careful consideration, they finally decided to retreat temporarily with only more than 10,000 soldiers.
In this way, after a bloody battle, Sun Wu finally won the victory with no danger due to Chu Dang's "recklessness". And they were able to capture Qianyi, temporarily stabilizing the situation.
The prince was also very happy to receive this battle report. But at this time, the people around him chewed their tongues again, perhaps out of jealousy:
"This Sun Changqing is really a god! It's a pity... He only regards Li Ran as his master, but he doesn't know the truth that 'everyone who leads the land is a king's ministers'. It's a pity."
But I heard Nangong Lao sighing intentionally or unintentionally.
And what he said was so sinister that everyone present could hear what it meant.
The implication is that Sun Wu and Fan Li are still his Li Ran's people after all. Even if Wang Zichao trusted him again, he should not have given away his general power so much.
And how could Wang Zichao not understand? Although he still trusted Li Ran, he couldn't stand the people around him chattering so much.
Therefore, in order to weigh the situation, the prince had no choice but to send Yin Yu to Qianyi, named as a reward, but actually to supervise the army.
After Li Ran learned about this, he also knew that this was the prince's method of checking and balancing. Although I had some grudges in my heart, after thinking about it, I realized that this could be regarded as the art of a king.
What's more, this prince is not Prince Jin after all, so he cannot be honest with him after all.
And now he only hopes that Wang Zichao will not have more misunderstandings and suspicions about him like King Chu Ling did later.
