The mountain pass west of Junduxing.
Lao Cao's 5,000 men and horses fired a burst of arrows and stones. Taking advantage of the enemy's chaos, he lit all the torches prepared in advance.
He knew that the Jin soldiers were best at fighting hard, and if they saw that they were outnumbered, they might have to fight bravely. Even if they won, the losses would be heavy, so he ordered each soldier to prepare four or five torches, which they would light together when needed, and hold one to hold. Charge and kill, and scatter the rest on the ground, thinking they are suspicious soldiers.
Some officials couldn't help but ask, could it be that Cao Cao, the old man, had the uncanny ability to predict that the Jin soldiers would withdraw at night? If it were daytime, wouldn't this torch be useless?
This is why Lao Cao wrote to Hu Sanniang, asking her to send generals Xiang and Li to attack when the Jin soldiers retreated.
The purpose is to use elite poker players to show off one's own combat power so that the golden soldiers will not dare to stay or camp in the valley.
It's just that people's calculations are not as good as God's calculations. Lao Cao knew that the Jin soldiers could fight hard, but Xiang Chong and Li Gun had no intuitive understanding.
In their experience, once the soldiers and horses are defeated, it is difficult for the gods to save them. Therefore, when they saw the Liao soldiers defeated, they immediately pursued and killed them boldly - a general who is approaching the battle has the right to make arbitrary decisions when the opportunity arises.
Who would have expected that Jin Bing was so brave that he could fight against the odds and suffered a huge loss.
Fortunately, Hu Sanniang was brave and Bao Xu was reckless, and the whole army rushed out. They were frightened and scattered, and they made it to the mountain pass at night.
Lao Cao's five thousand soldiers were divided into two groups and fought out from left to right. In the dark night, they looked like two fire dragons. Tens of thousands of torches were stuck in place, illuminating half of the mountain. When the Jin soldiers saw it, they only said: Tens of thousands of brave soldiers were ambushed here. They became more and more courageous and just ran away.
At that time, Sun Bin reduced the stove to trap and kill Pang Juan. Later, Zhuge used this strategy and added the stove to frighten Sima away. Now Cao Cao used it again and added torches as soldiers. It can be seen that the principle of using troops was originally based on one intention.
I saw that all the way to the left was full of murderous intent. The two leading generals were Du Bo, the "Sai Zhang Fei", and Zhu Tong, the "Beautiful Bearded Man"!
All the way to the right, the sound of killing shook the ground, the first three generals: "Wu Mengde" Wu Zhi, "Thunderbolt Fire" Qin Ming, and "Zhen Sanshan" Huang Xin!
Hey! What a good show!
Some judges may want to challenge the situation: Hey, this is obviously a war, how can you say it is a show?
Look and sing, as the saying goes——
The hasty Thunderbolt struck with his bat,
The red-faced Zhu Tong stabbed him with a spear,
Yellow-faced Huang Xin, short Cao Cao,
The black-faced Du Bo is called Cha Cha~
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
A girl who is good at fighting is so sincere,
The newly surrendered Khitan calls her mother,
If you can run, run!
Running too slow is too slow.
Wanyan Sali drinks tears~
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
"The Crying Man" couldn't hold back his tears. This battle was too painful!
He originally had strong men and horses, with 33,000 troops. He rushed on the starry night and fought hard under the city. The Khitan soldiers lost more than 5,000, and the Jurchen soldiers also lost 40, 500, leaving only 27,000. Now he is hungry, thirsty and dejected. Later, he was frightened by Lao Cao's suspected soldiers, and his combat power collapsed, like a landslide.
Seeing Lao Cao's two soldiers, they were like a pair of big scissors, rushing back and forth, clicking and cutting off large pieces of meat. Sa Lihe couldn't help crying, and while crying, he cursed: "Bitch thieves! Today! It’s not you, it’s me!”
He was also brave. He actually led hundreds of people to turn around and charge into the battle, and bumped into Du Bo. They exchanged ten moves. His courage suddenly disappeared, and he regained the calmness that a famous general should have, and turned around and left.
Let the Khitans die. Now that Emperor Zuo has surrendered, how many Khitans are left?
In this battle, Salihe lost more than 7,000 people, leaving less than 20,000. He only hated his parents for losing two legs. They chased me and ran away.
Cao Cao gathered his men and horses and pursued them slowly and slowly. His troops had rested for a day. Although they had killed a lot, they still had some courage to spare.
Sa Lihe fled in a panic. When he arrived at the place where he crossed the river last night, he saw that the pontoon bridge that had been built before was still there. He made up his mind and quickly ordered the crossing: the Jurchens crossed first, the veterans second, and the new soldiers and horses followed.
Unexpectedly, halfway through the crossing, I heard the sound of a cannon and the cry of killing, which shook the ground.
Sa Li was shocked and looked up. There was a huge fire on the shore. Guan Sheng was riding a curly red rabbit horse, dragging the Qinglong Yanyue Sword backwards, and was the first to kill him.
Six fierce generals on the left and right, lined up with wild goose wings, followed by ten thousand soldiers and horses, came to kill the generals in large numbers.
Sa Lihe was shocked to realize that he had been crying earlier at the mountain pass. Now he was about to cry but had no tears. He howled: "Jurchen warriors, follow me to break through!"
Not to mention the newly surrendered Liao troops, he also ignored the 10,000 veteran troops he brought with him, and only led his more than 2,000 Jurchens to fight hard into the diagonal stab.
The Black Wind King Otunzalu was the captain of the ten thousand veterans. Seeing this situation, he did not hesitate and led his men into the head-on collision, hoping to buy time for the general.
The "Ugly Commandery Horse" announced that he wanted to do something good. When he saw an infantry general from the other side, he was as strong as a giant bear. He roared and charged towards him. He opened his bow and fired seven arrows in a row——
Why does he deserve to be a county horse? It was at that time that he defeated the envoys of Liao and Xia in a martial arts competition in front of the emperor, relying on a flurry of arrows.
Who wouldn't applaud when he saw this move of seven consecutive beads?
Unexpectedly, Otunzalu lowered his head, and seven feather arrows hit him one after another and bounced away one after another.
It turns out that this guy wears three layers of armor, an inner layer of bear skin armor, a middle layer of iron armor, and an outer layer of bone armor - but he hunted bears, tigers and ferocious beasts himself, and strung the bones into a strange-looking armor. The arrow hit it, leaving only a white spot.
Xuanzan was furious when he saw it. He changed his knife and Pegasus came to chop him. Otunzalu stood still, raised the giant hammer with both hands, and touched it twice. There was a loud bang, and Xuanzan's knife flew out of his hand.
Xuan Zan didn't expect this golden general to be so powerful. He borrowed the horse power, but Wu Zi lost to him. He endured the soreness in his hands and was about to rein in his horse and run away. Unexpectedly, Otun Zhalu's big hand like a leaf fan reached out and pulled out the lion's belt. His hands pulled Xuan Zan off the horse's back and threw him to the ground.
Xuanzan felt dizzy after being slapped by him, and was still struggling to get up. Then he heard this guy's strange voice and yelled in Chinese: "Southern barbarians, come to Grandpa!"
Holding the sledgehammer upside down in his right hand, he swung the hammer down as if pounding garlic, smashing Xuanzan's head into pieces.
This is exactly——
The black wind monster is more powerful than the bear, and Brother Guan Hao sheds tears.
Appearance has always been underestimated in the battlefield, but the loyal soul has shined on the family lintel.
All the generals praised him and exclaimed in unison. Guan Sheng and Hao Siwen were so sad that they almost fell off their horses.
Shi Bao reacted the fastest, gritted his teeth and snatched it out, then slashed his head with the Wind Splitting Knife.
However, this Otunzalu is more than nine feet tall and weighs more than three hundred kilograms. He is blessed with divine power. If he wants to use delicate moves to deal with it, he has to be in a hurry.
The 80-pound sledgehammer in his hand was swung, and with a clang, Shibao's sword almost fell out of his hand, and he cried out: "What a strong man!"
Guan Sheng endured his grief and gritted his teeth and said: "If he can move mountains, I will make him pay with his life today!" Pegasus came running towards him and slashed with his sword, but Otun Zhalu blocked him.
Shi Wengong and Li Tianrun yelled: "How dare you show off in front of your face!" They both rushed to kill.
With tears streaming down his face, Hao Siwen shouted: "Golden Dog, it's either you or me today!" He slapped his horse, twisted his gun, and killed regardless of life or death.
Sun An was afraid that he would make a mistake, so he stood by him tightly.
When Otunzalu saw him besieging them, he was not surprised but delighted. He swung his big hammer like a windmill and kept shouting: "Come to fight, come to fight, smash them to death one by one."
This powerful golden general, while fighting in evil ways, couldn't help but think about the past more than ten years ago...
At that time, the Jurchens had not yet launched an army. They had been oppressed by the Liao Kingdom all year round. Many tribesmen died of starvation every year. More than ten years ago, there was a snowstorm. The river was frozen to the bottom. The snow in the forest was chest-deep. Let alone hunting, pick some. Even the bark of a tree is hard to bear. He, Otunzalu, is a foreign orphan adopted by the Jurchens and has no parents to care for him. Who can take care of him in times of crisis like this?
He was about to starve to death, but his friend Wanyan came to look for him in the wind and snow with a load of venison in his arms.
Otunzalu was on his deathbed, unable to open his mouth, so Sa Li drank and chewed up the venison, fed him mouth to mouth, and inserted his tongue into his esophagus, thus saving his life.
It was many years later that he heard that in the winter of that year, Sa Lihe was severely punished by his father with hundreds of lashes for repeatedly stealing food from the family, leaving no good piece of meat all over his body.
But this young man, who would burst into tears every time he fell, never mentioned this matter to him.
Sally drink! Go far away!
Otunzalu screamed in his heart, but his expression became more and more ferocious: "Come on, Nanmanzi, I'll smash them all to pieces!"
According to the original time and space, the Black Wind King Otun Zhalu would have been killed by Yue Fei in the Taihang Mountains several years later. Thirty thousand golden soldiers were so frightened that they died in battle that they fled without fighting. (Note 1)
However, today, fighting against six generals alone, where is the chance to wait until Yue Fei comes to kill them?
Don't say that he only has divine power and is not proficient in the use of moves. Even if Lu Bu is reborn, Ma Chao travels, and Guan Sheng encounters these six, he will probably only hate the northwest.
The six generals hated him and killed Xuan Zan, and showed no mercy. The two sides fought for more than ten times. Otunzalu had been slashed three times and stabbed four times. With his strong armor, thick skin and thick flesh, he roared and fought fiercely. .
At this time, Guan Sheng gradually woke up from his grief, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Teacher Shi, Marshal Shi, wait until you intercept the Jin soldiers. Guan will be enough to kill this person!"
Shi Wengong and others also saw through Otun Zhalu's background, and they all thought to themselves: With this guy's martial arts skills, how can it be worth it for the six of us to fight him? So he nodded, spurred his horse and started to leave.
When Otunzalu saw this, he went crazy and suddenly threw his sledgehammer. Shi Bao was caught off guard and hurriedly raised his leg to avoid being hit.
It's just that he avoided his legs. How could the horse behind his crotch avoid it? The hammer hit the horse's belly, and the horse flew several feet away and fell heavily to the ground. Fortunately, Shi Bao jumped down in time and was not injured.
Otun Zhalu threw the hammer, without looking at it, opened his arms and rushed towards Shi Wengong's horse. However, Xue Naoji was extremely spiritual. When he saw a strong man rushing towards him like a wild bear, he turned around nimbly and jumped far away.
Otun Zhalu grabbed the air, turned around and tried to attack Li Tianrun again. Shi Bao rolled towards him and cut off his calf with a sweeping sweep of his knife. Guan Sheng slashed his back with a knife. Otun Zhalu couldn't stand, so he threw himself to the ground.
Li Tianrun and Hao Siwen both fired their spears, each exerting their best efforts, piercing through the armor and muscles, and nailed Otunzalu to the ground.
Guan Sheng jumped off his horse and shouted: "Pay for my brother's life!" The Qinglong Sword slashed blindly.
That white bone armor can resist arrows, but how can it withstand a big knife? Only the sound of breaking was heard, and it quickly turned into a pile of broken bones.
Guan Sheng chopped fifty or sixty times in one breath, almost mincing Otun Zhalu into mincemeat. His hands and feet were cut into several pieces, and his chest was chopped open. His lungs, liver and intestines were all over the ground, and only one head was still intact. .
At this moment, Otunzalu seemed not to notice the pain, staring blankly at the sky, mumbling, turning over and over, and reciting the same sentence.
Guan Sheng took a long breath, relieved the pain in his heart, put away the knife, and said with a cold face: "Let him slowly die of pain! What is he talking about? Is he begging for mercy?"
Sun An dismounted his horse and stepped forward. He knelt down and listened for a moment, then sighed: "It's a Jurchen saying. He said, brother, I, I'm so cold, the Song dog is so fierce, please leave quickly."
Guan Sheng was stunned for a moment, his eyes suddenly complicated.
Li Tianrun's eyes turned red instantly, but he was touched for a moment, thinking of his brother Li Tianyou, who was also chopped to pieces with a knife.
Touched by the scene, he couldn't help but stepped forward and said: "Two soldiers are fighting, and each has his destiny. We take care of our brothers, and they take care of their brothers. That's it. Brother, Brother Hao, please give me your condolences."
Guan Sheng and Hao Siwen nodded silently with tears in their eyes.
Li Tianrun whispered again: "Shall I give him a good time?"
Guan Sheng was silent for a moment and nodded. Li Tianrun breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to kill Otunzalu with his gun.
But Sun An stood up and said, "Don't bother, he's already dead."
Guan Sheng was stunned again, shook his head, raised his sword, mounted his horse, and charged straight into the crowd. His sword was as powerful as the wind, but he shouted loudly: "Those who don't surrender will die, and those who surrender will not be killed."
Behind the golden soldiers was Guishui, and in front of them was the red-eyed Xifeng Army. They had no choice but to throw down their weapons and kneel down to ask for surrender.
Wanyan Salihe came out of the darkness and led more than a thousand remaining Jurchen troops to forcefully fight out and disappeared.
The newly surrendered Liao soldiers who had not yet crossed the river saw that they were defeated, so they turned around and ran away. They could not escape for several miles when they encountered Cao Cao's troops and pressed them up. After a brief charge, they fell to their knees on the ground.
Cao Cao drove the prisoners across the river to join Guan Sheng. When he learned that Xuanzan had been defeated, he was shocked and said: "This brother has extraordinary courage and courage. He will be a great talent who can stand alone in the future. Who would have expected that Xuanzan would be defeated here!"
He gritted his teeth and said, "Have you ever caught the enemy who harmed him?"
Sun An led him to see the corpse of Otun Zhalu, and told him how this man fought to the death. After hearing this, Old Cao couldn't help but admire him: "Well, it may not be a blessing for us warriors to die on the battlefield... restrain ourselves." Xuan Zan's body was asked to be buried in a good cave nearby by Gongsun Sheng. The mountain will be renamed Xuan Zan Mountain in the future so that future generations will remember my brother's achievements."
He glanced at Otunzalu again and said, "This guy is also a brave general. He just packed it up and buried it alive."
Now count the casualties: In this battle, more than 5,000 Jin soldiers were killed and more than 10,000 surrendered. Except for the more than 1,000 Jurchen soldiers who followed Sa Lihe and fought their way out of the encirclement, the entire army was wiped out.
On our side, the battle losses at Wu Sheng Pass have not yet been reported. Guan Sheng's 5,000 soldiers had lost more than 1,000 earlier. In addition to the 5,000 soldiers brought by Shi Wengong and Sun An, they had also been lost in the first battle. More than a thousand, most of them were killed by Jurchen soldiers when they broke through.
The 5,000 soldiers led by Lao Cao himself did not suffer much losses, with only more than 200 casualties because the Jin soldiers were only running around at that time.
After calculating the number of casualties, everyone felt much better. Qin Ming said: "In the past few years, I have only heard that the Jurchens are invincible. I also heard that they defeated the Liao people invincibly. Now when I meet my brother, it is nothing more than that. I will wait. There were more than 2,000 casualties before and after, and more than 30,000 of his troops were destroyed. When word spreads, the whole world will be shaken!"
Cao Cao waved his hands and said: "Don't be arrogant, brothers. Although this battle can be called a great victory, the golden soldiers fell into the trap first. They ran back and forth and were ambushed several times. This is the main reason. If the two armies faced each other, we would I'm afraid it will be difficult for the army to win. What's more, there are more than 30,000 golden soldiers, how many real Jurchen warriors are there?"
After hearing this, everyone thought carefully and couldn't help but smile.
Cao Cao sighed: "If these more than 30,000 people are all Jurchens, and we usually use this strategy, even if we win, we will never be able to kill so many people. I am afraid that our own casualties will be ten times more. Even if he turns defeat into victory, it will be impossible." It’s unknown. Haha, it’s not a lie to be a brother. Jin and Liao have been fighting continuously in these years, don’t the Liao people not use tricks? But how many victories have they achieved? "
After hearing this, everyone's expressions became heavier. Guan Sheng said: "My brother's intention is that he is afraid that we will win because of this and underestimate the Jurchens. After all, the strategy is to add wings to the tiger, and the elite soldiers and brave generals are the tiger itself. Don't worry, brother, because you are watching For the sake of praise, I will never underestimate the enemy."
Seeing that he understood what he meant, Cao Cao nodded repeatedly, and then smiled: "It's good if you know! After all, it's a great victory, so we must celebrate it. I'm going to Pingying Erzhou this time, and I've made a big mistake." With the windfall, we will buy all the pigs and sheep in the city and give them to all the troops to eat. You also have a good rest for a day, and we will discuss the next steps tomorrow."
This is exactly what it is: the veteran Meng Desheng is not arrogant, and the Jurchen is fierce and fierce. If you don't fight for the first time today, you will have to raise your sword again tomorrow.
Note:
"He led his troops to Yibei to attack the enemy. He also fought in the Taihang Mountains, captured dozens of horses, and captured Tuoba Yewu. After several days, he encountered the enemy again. The former minister, riding alone with an iron spear of eight feet, assassinated the enemy commander, King Black Wind. , with the force of 30,000 men, the enemy army was disheartened. ——"Jin Tuo"
