Liu Bei calmed down and retreated to Leling City with Wang Yanzhang and other generals to temporarily avoid the sharp edge of Shan Xiongxin's armored army!
Seeing Liu Bei's withdrawal, Shan Xiongxin did not continue the pursuit. He stationed his troops in place and encouraged Meng Jiigong to attack Leling and recapture the fallen cities.
Shan Xiongxin no longer continued to lead the army to help him retake the fallen cities. Meng Jiigong was anxious but had no choice but to bite the bullet, gather his soldiers and march towards Leling County.
On the way, in order to successfully capture Leling County, Meng Jiigong made sufficient preparations before the war. He ordered his 20,000 soldiers to prepare their troops and horses, carry grain, grass and baggage, as well as siege equipment such as ladders, battering rams, and well rails. Launched an attack on Leling City.
The war spread again, and a siege broke out in Leling County. In the city, Liu Bei led his subordinates Wang Yanzhang, Wang Yanchao, Wang Yantong, Wang Yansheng and other generals to stand at the crenellations of the city wall and kill the thief soldiers who climbed up!
The siege lasted for two days and one night. The city walls of Leling County were stained red with the blood of soldiers from both sides. Meng Jiigong's soldiers scaled the city wall many times, but they were all intercepted and killed by Liu Bei's generals.
Casualties continued to increase, but they still failed to capture the city in front of them. Meng Jiigong was so angry that he immediately ordered his generals Ma Tong, Shangyi and Meng Kang to command 800 elite troops each to launch offensives from the east gate, north gate and west gate respectively, encircling three and letting one go. They did not seek to completely annihilate Liu Bei, but Please take back this Leling City!
It has to be said that this method is indeed effective. After dispatching three powerful generals, Liu Bei, who was defending Leling City, led his soldiers to withdraw from the south gate and retreat toward Yanci County to the west.
Meng Jiigong successfully entered Leling County. After reorganizing his troops, he forcibly recruited elite soldiers there and then continued to march in the direction where Liu Bei retreated.
In Yanci County, Liu Bei was worried. He stood on the city wall with his hands behind his back, looking up at the billowing dust rising from the horizon in the distance, feeling bitter in his heart.
"The thief is still here"
After several battles, Liu Bei's soldiers were physically and mentally exhausted, and their morale and combat effectiveness were no longer as high and strong as before. If this continues, it will be a problem whether they can return to Pingyuan County alive, let alone expand their territory!
Just when Liu Bei was at a loss what to do, his military advisor Zhou Shu came up with a suggestion. To deal with Meng Jiigong's persistent bandit army, he could use the method of luring the enemy deep into the enemy's territory and climbing up beams and pulling out ladders.
What is the method of luring the enemy deep and climbing up the beam and taking out the ladder? Zhou Shu bluntly said that Meng Jiong currently has a large number of troops and high morale. He holds a grudge against Liu Bei for leading his army to attack his territory, killing his younger brother Meng Xigui and his legitimate son Mengyi, and capturing his wife Ma Saifei alive, so he will definitely continue to pursue him!
As long as he used Meng Jiigong's anger to induce his troops to pursue the border of Pingyuan County, out of the controllable range of Wang Shichong's supporting army Shan Xiongxin's troops, then Liu Bei would not need to worry about anything else and just launch a counterattack.
As for what is the purpose of ascending the beam and taking out the ladder? General Zhang Dingbian is currently on the way to support. Liu Bei, the lord, can write a letter asking General Zhang to lead the army to Leling County in a detour. Taking advantage of the gap between the city defenders who have not yet led the army to deploy defenses, they can seize the city in a blitzkrieg and intercept Meng Jiong's retreat. At the same time, it can also block the support of Shan Xiongxin and his armored army, creating time and space advantages for Liu Bei to destroy Meng Jiigong!
"Master Military Advisor, this plan is very clever, but it is not as good as Xuande. First\./issued\./updated\./new`..mobile.version"
Without further ado, Liu Bei immediately arranged for his soldiers to collect supplies in the city, appease the people, and prepare to abandon the city and retreat, exchanging space for space, to make full preparations for the subsequent destruction of Meng Jiigong.
When Meng Jiong led his troops to the city of Yanci, they saw a disheveled female corpse hanging high on the city gate. There was no doubt that this person was none other than Meng Jiong's wife Ma Saifei!
"Liu Xuande, I will eat your blood, eat your flesh, bruise your bones and scatter your ashes in order to avenge the murder of your wife, son and brother."
That Ma Saifei was good at martial arts and was good at wielding two Xiuluan knives and had 24 hidden "magic knives". They were the bargaining chips that Wang Yanzhang managed to capture alive.
As the wife of Meng Jiong, she was arrogant, domineering and arrogant. She took the lives of countless innocent people at her hands. Death is not a pity!
Now that Ma Saifei died on the battlefield, it was considered a worthy death, and he had exerted his greatest value for Liu Beijun.
Meng Jiigong, who looked like a madman, was crying with blood and was extremely angry, but he was laughing. He raised his arms and shouted, leading all the soldiers under his command to the direction of Pingyuan County.
It would not be enough to vent the resentment in his heart without killing Liu Bei.
Meng Jiigong led his troops to Pingyuan County in a hurry. Little did he know that Leling County behind it had been captured by Zhang Dingbian's men, completely cutting off his retreat to Shan Xiongxin for help.
When Meng Jiong arrived at the border of Pingyuan County, he saw that Liu Bei, Wang Yanzhang and other generals had already prepared their battles and were ready to fight and defeat the enemy!
"Liu Bei's son, suffer death."
When Meng Jiong saw Liu Bei opposite him, he was so excited that he was so angry that his eyes were split. He immediately picked up the weapon hanging on the back of the horse under his crotch, commanded his 30,000 soldiers to form an arrow formation, and attacked Liu Bei's army. go.
Seeing the bandits of Wu Yangyang coming towards them, Liu Bei, Wang Yanzhang and other generals were not afraid at all. They calmly and calmly dispatched their soldiers to form the Crane Wing Formation, preparing to outflank them on the left and right!
The flying crane spreads its wings and is both offensive and defensive; the general is in the center and surrounded by heavy troops.
This formation is led by Liu Bei, who sits in the middle and rear of the formation and can dispatch generals to fight against the thieves at any time. The two tiger generals, Wang Yanzhang and Wang Yantong, were in charge of the formation wings on both sides, with the intention of first killing the enemy generals and then surrounding and annihilating the rebel army.
The powder keg of war was instantly ignited. Meng Jiong commanded his troops and plunged straight into Liu Bei's Crane Wing formation like a sharp knife. He originally thought that Liu Bei could be captured alive in a quick battle, but it backfired. His soldiers fell into Liu Bei's Crane Wing formation. After forming the formation, it was like stepping into a quagmire, making it difficult to display one's strength, and the casualty rate was instantly increased.
In the battlefield, Ma Tong, a general under Meng Jiigong, was shot in the head by the oncoming Wang Yanzhang and fell off his horse to death!
Shangyi was hit in the back by Wang Yansheng's two-foot-long magic weapon. He fell off his horse and vomited blood and fainted. He was trampled to death by the rebel horse.
Jiang Shanhe and Meng Kang originally wanted to lead the army to join Meng Jiong, but Liu Bei's army was as powerful as a tiger and did not give them a chance...
The rebel general Jiang Shanhe died in the rebellion, and Meng Kang, the "jade flag pole", was captured alive by Wang Yansheng, tied up and escorted to Liu Bei.
As the war came to an end, Liu Bei's army defeated the greater number with less force. They killed 20,000 men under Meng Jiigong and captured 10,000. They killed 28 of his generals and captured one alive. They won a complete victory.
The leader of the thieves, Meng Jiigong, knew that the situation was over, so he took out the sword from his waist, stood in the middle of the rebel army, and committed suicide!
At this point, Qingzhou Baiyu King Gao Tansheng and Song Yi King Meng Jiigong fell, and Liu Bei's power expanded to three times its original size.
After cleaning the battlefield and gathering the surrendering troops, Liu Bei personally recruited the defeated general Meng Kang and Meng Jiigong's military advisor Bai Shun to join his command.
"Ding! Liu Bei of Qingzhou destroyed two countries in a row, killed Baiyu Wang Gao Tansheng and Song Yi Wang Meng Jiigong, triggering the system's random balancing mechanism..."
The cold mechanical sound of the system sounded again, which made Yuan Shu, who was still rushing to rescue Yuzhou, frown. How many days had it been since the balance was triggered by the last destruction of the Southern Kingdom? Is this system open to balance again? What a piece of junk!
