Leaving Tongguan in the west, there is a vast plain.
Huayin lies in the middle and cannot be defended. It can only exist as an outpost of Chang'an to delay attacks from the Central Plains. Zhao Yun moved the people away while he was guarding it, turning Huayin into a military station.
Last year, Liu Bei deployed troops on both the Anding and Longyou fronts and took away most of the troops in Guanzhong, leaving Liu Feng with only 3,000 men in Huayin. Therefore, as soon as there was a big move in Tongguan, Huayin quickly sent an early warning to Chang'an.
Huayin is only fifty miles away from Tongguan, but two to three hundred miles away from Chang'an. Even if the horses run around day and night, Liu Feng cannot wait for the reinforcements from Chang'an to arrive, so he needs to choose to defend the city or retreat.
The small town of Huayin County was destroyed, and the risk of defending was huge. Liu Feng did not have Zhao Yun's intimidation power, so after sending scouts to warn him, he gathered his troops and prepared to retreat when the opportunity came.
Wei general Wang Zhong led the vanguard to arrive first, and Liu Feng set up a formation at the foot of Huayin City.
"Where is Liu Bei's fake man? Come out quickly and die." Wang Zhong shouted in front of the formation with a sword in his hand.
When Liu Feng was watching on the city, he saw that the number of Wei troops was equal to that of the defenders. He originally wanted to weaken the enemy, but he didn't expect that as soon as they met, the opponent actually named him and wanted to fight him. Is there some conspiracy?
In the battle at Dingjun Mountain, Xiahou Yuan fell into a trap and was killed. Liu Feng saw that the opponent had a dark beard and a ferocious appearance. He felt that he was a ruthless character who was not easy to mess with, so he ordered the defenders to launch an attack, hoping to test the strength of the Wei army.
Wang Zhong spat at his horse, muttered something about being a coward, and then commanded the vanguard to passively fight the Han army.
Huayin is positioned as an outpost, and the soldiers left behind are mainly new soldiers. The vanguard unit of Commander Wang Zhong is the elite brought by Xu Huang from Luoyang. The advantages and disadvantages of the two armies can be seen as soon as they fight.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Liu Feng immediately chose to withdraw his troops, saying that it was lucky that he did not defend, otherwise Wei would besiege Huayin, and not a single defender in the city would be able to escape.
Seeing that the Han army retreated just after the battle, Wang Zhong began to despise Zhu Ling and Hao Zhao, thinking that with such weak fighting power, the two of you are still trapped in Tongguan? He deserves not to be reused by His Majesty.
Liu Feng led his army to fight and leave. How could Wang Zhong give up the opportunity to make a weak point? With three thousand vanguards chasing after him like a mad dog, they gradually lost contact with their leader Xu Huang.
The two armies chased for two days on the banks of the Wei River. Liu Feng discovered that Wei General Wang Zhong was a reckless man. He thought that the reinforcements from Chang'an should also set off. If everything went well, they would meet him tomorrow, so he came up with an idea.
The next day, Liu Feng's team continued to flee to Chang'an and ambush two thousand soldiers two miles south of the official road, hiding in weeds in the dry fields.
In spring, everything revives, and the weeds half as tall as a man are very concealable. At this time, Wang Zhong only had Liu Feng in his eyes. He found that the number of deserters had decreased and did not raise any suspicion. After chasing him in the afternoon, he suddenly found that Liu Feng's people had changed direction and were heading towards Backlash from his own direction.
Did Liu Feng lose his mind? Wang Zhong was elated when he saw his 'prey' coming to his door. He immediately took it for granted and was so excited that he couldn't help himself.
There was a sound of horse hooves, and the generals of the two armies were only a stone's throw away. Wang Zhong raised his sword and wanted to take the head, but his face suddenly turned pale with shock. His rough hands suddenly grabbed the horse's reins and controlled the horse to the river beach. He took a detour and ran away to the east without his life.
How did he turn into Zhang Fei, who was clearly a 'boyfriend' Liu Feng? Didn't this person go to conquer Longyou? Why does it appear here? Is Zhang He's information wrong?
Wang Zhong's martial arts skills were ordinary, but fortunately his eyesight was very good. Although he could not see the general's appearance clearly, but the opponent's copper bell-like eyes, black horse, and Zhangba snake spear, these factors were combined together. If not Zhang Fei, he could still who is it?
Wang Zhong reacted quickly and ran just as fast. When he gave the order to retreat, he was already far away from the front-line troops. Those Wei soldiers rushed forward and bumped directly into Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei's troops were all veterans on the battlefield, and they also had the powerful intimidation of the general. They directly crushed the leaderless Wei soldiers, and then destroyed them like a tide to the east. The Wei soldiers passively began to run back.
Zhang Fei has been fighting for so many years, but he has never seen anyone rushing to die like this. After dealing with the defeated soldiers in front of him, he asked the people next to him in great surprise: "Why does that general they escaped just now look familiar to me?"
"It's a little far away, so I didn't see it clearly." Wu Er shook his head gently.
"This man's name seems to be Wang Zhong. The Major General has fought with him several times in the past two days. He once heard him shouting during the pursuit." Liu Feng's personal soldier replied.
Zhang Fei scratched his head, and after a while he remembered: "It turns out that he was sent to Xiaopei by the thief Cao back then. I remember that this thief was particularly fond of eating human flesh. He actually survived to this day and threw it into the Wei River to feed the fish. go."
Wang Zhong fled in panic, and only ran five miles away when he found a group of men and horses approaching from the east. Wang Zhong was overjoyed and said to the people around him: "General Xu is here, maybe he can stop the black guy."
Having just lost an army to Zhang Fei, Wang Zhong was worried about being scolded by Xu Huang for his recklessness, and wanted to use Zhang He's information as an excuse to divert Xu Huang's attention, so he rode to the front to meet the general, and then the reality came again. Hit him in the face.
Why did the 'little pretty boy' Liu Feng appear in the back? Wang Zhong hammered his head. He had no idea what was happening. Could it be that the Han army could fly into the sky and escape?
During the two days of pursuit, Wang Zhong and Liu Feng fought several times. He naively believed that Liu Feng was weak in martial arts. In fact, Liu Feng was worried that his troops were weak and the confrontation between the two armies would cause great damage, so he chose to fight and leave instead of discord. Wei soldiers stalked him.
The timing changed, and Liu Feng's mentality also changed.
Wang Zhong fled back in embarrassment, indicating that he encountered Zhang Fei and chose to entangle the opponent at this time, maybe he could kill the Wei army, so Liu Feng took the initiative to attack with his gun.
Is Liu Feng crazy? Shouldn't he run away when he sees me? Wang Zhong looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief, then raised his knife and confidently stepped forward to meet him.
There is no shame in being unable to defeat Zhang Fei. Killing Liu Bei is just as meritorious as pretending to be a feint. Wang Zhong raised his sword and slashed at Liu Feng's head. Liu Feng easily defused it with his spear, and his forbearing style suddenly became active.
The two sides fought for three rounds, and Wang Zhong became more and more frightened. He thought that this guy was making rapid progress, but he actually felt a little strenuous.
Liu Feng became more courageous as he fought, while Wang Zhong became more and more panicked. During the battle, he saw smoke and dust billowing to the west, and he knew that Zhang Fei's rear army had arrived.
At the moment when Wang Zhong was in a trance, he was stabbed in the chest by Liu Feng. He then fell off his horse and was killed on the spot. The Wei army was attacked from both sides and no one survived.
After the annihilation war ended, Wang Zhong's body was thrown into the Wei River and became food for the fish in the river. When Wang Zhong was young, he had eaten people due to hunger in Guanzhong, but he ended up being buried in the belly of a fish.
Zhang Fei originally had 10,000 elite troops, but when he joined Liu Feng's more than 2,000 troops, they were on par with Xu Huang's troops. In the end, the two armies met fifty miles west of Huayin.
From the moment Xu Huang saw Zhang Fei, he knew that Wang Zhong, the vanguard, was on the decline, and the opponent's troops were no less than his own. It seemed that the raid on Chang'an was empty talk.
