Yu Yi wiped the blood splashed on his face and said, "It's so satisfying!" Only a small number of bandits surrounded the skeleton war horse. When Yu Yi led the Shu army to attack suddenly, the main force deep in the ravine was alarmed, and the bandit leader Came to the scene with all the troops.
Li Yan saw the bandit leader at a glance and reminded Yu Yi: "He is the bandit leader. The Jingshan bandits have been around for a long time and are also very cunning. The bandit leader is also very skilled in martial arts. When we destroyed the troops on the mountain in the early stage, A heavy price was paid.”
When Yu Yi heard that he was highly skilled in martial arts, he immediately became interested. He struck Fang Tian's snake halberd and shouted, "Does anyone dare to challenge me to a duel?"
The man cheered up, and without answering, he rode up to fight. Yu Yi asked the Shu army to light up the fire, and personally fought against the leader of the thieves. The two of them exchanged horses. Yu Yi was very fast and killed him under the horse in just one turn. .
Li Yan led other Shu troops to take advantage of the situation to cover up the enemy, and the enemy was immediately defeated. By dawn, the victory or defeat was determined. The rebel army was dead, surrendered, and injured. It was not systematic. In addition, the group was leaderless and was finally completely wiped out by the Shu army.
Li Yan participated in the whole battle. This was his first time to kill the new emperor Yu Yi at close range. He did not expect that the other party had superior martial arts and outstanding strategy. He immediately felt admiration and felt infinitely bright about the future of Xi Shu.
When he returned, Li Yan prepared to hold a banquet to introduce his beautiful sister to Yu Yi, forming an in-law family and bringing them closer. However, Yu Yi insisted on leaving. He thought that the matter of the skeleton war horse had delayed a lot of time, and he was afraid that Huang Shumin had already Take action, hurry up.
Li Yan had no choice but to watch him leave.
Near Tianshui, Jiang Wei led a group of men and horses to Jicheng. The men and horses in front were spread out. The Shu general at the head was Wei Yan. The two handed over their horses and fought for several rounds. Wei Yan pretended to be unable to fight and escaped. After Jiang Wei entered the city, He closed it, led his troops to guard it, went to see his mother, and did not go out to fight. Zhao Yun let Liang Hu go and entered the city of Gui.
Kongming sent people to Nan'an County to summon Xiahou Mao and asked, "Are you afraid of death?"
He replied: "I hope the Prime Minister will spare my life!"
Kong Ming said: "Now Jiang Wei of Tianshui County is guarding Jicheng. He sent someone with a letter to say that as long as the prince consort agrees, I will surrender immediately. I will give you a chance now and spare your life, as long as you agree to recruit An Jiang." dimension."
When Xia Houmao heard that there was such a good thing, he quickly replied: "I am willing to pay the penalty and make meritorious service."
Kong Ming gave him his clothes and horses, and let him go without letting anyone follow him.
Naturally, Xiahou Mao would not go to recruit Jiang Wei. After leaving the camp, he was about to find a way to leave, but he didn't know the way. As he was walking, he suddenly encountered some people running around.
Xia Houmao asked the reason and replied: "We are all common people in Ji County. Now Jiang Wei has dedicated the city to Zhuge Liang and has surrendered to Shu. Wei Yan, the general of Shu, has used his horse to rob the property. We have no choice but to run away from home." , went to Shanggui."
Xiahou Mao asked again: "So who is the prefect of Tianshui now?"
He replied: "The governor of Tianshui City is Governor Ma."
After Xia Houmao heard about it, he rode towards Tianshui and met several groups of people on the way, who all told him this.
When they arrived at Tianshui, the soldiers on the city wall recognized Xiahou Mao and opened the door to welcome him. Ma Zun was very surprised and asked about the situation. Xiahou Mao told Jiang Wei's story and what the people said.
Ma Zun sighed: "I didn't expect that Jiang Wei asked me for troops and horses in order to surrender to Shu."
Liang Xudao: "No, he must be preparing to save the governor, so he pretended to surrender."
Xia Houmao said: "Now that Jiang Wei has surrendered, so many people have said so, how can it be false?"
While hesitating, it was already the first watch, and the Shu army came to attack the city again. In the light of the fire, he saw Jiang Wei holding his gun and reining in his horse under the city, and shouted: "Please come out and answer Xiahou Dudu!"
Xiahou Mao, Ma Zun and others came to the city wall and saw Jiang Weiyao shouting majestically: "I surrendered for the sake of the Governor. Why did the Governor betray his previous words?"
Xiahou Mao said: "You have been favored by Wei State, why did you surrender to Shu? What did you say before?"
Jiang Wei replied: "You wrote a letter asking me to surrender to Shu. Why did you say that? You wanted to escape, but you trapped me in the Shu army camp. Now that I have surrendered to Shu and been awarded the title of general, where can I go back? The reason for going to Wei State." After saying that, without waiting for the other party's explanation, he led his troops and horses to attack the city, and did not leave until daybreak. It turned out that the man pretending to be Jiang Wei in the middle of the night was Kong Ming's plan, and he sent Jiang Wei to A soldier of similar height and appearance pretends to be Jiang Wei, because in the light of the fire, you can also see the real and the fake.
Kong Ming brought troops and horses to attack Jicheng. There was very little food in the city and the supply of military supplies was insufficient. Jiang Wei was on the city wall and saw the Shu army's large and small vehicles carrying grain and grass into the Shu army's camp. Jiang Wei took three thousand soldiers and horses Go out of the city to rob food.
When the Shu army saw the enemy coming to attack, they all abandoned their grain carts and found a way to leave. Jiang Wei seized the grain carts and prepared to return to the city, but was blocked by a group of people. A group of people blocked the way. The leader of the army blocked the way. The man was Zhang Yi, and the two fought against each other. After a few rounds, Wang Ping arrived with a group of men and horses. They attacked from two sides. Jiang Wei couldn't resist it and could only find a small road back to the city. The city had already been penetrated. The flags of the Shu army were full, and it turned out that they had been attacked by Wei Yan.
Jiang Wei could only fight his way back to Tianshui. He was followed by only a dozen cavalrymen. When Zhang Bao appeared and killed him for a while, Jiang Wei was left alone. He came to the bottom of Tianshui and knocked on the door. When the soldiers on the city saw it, he was Jiang Wei reported in a hurry.
Ma Zundao said: "This must be Jiang Wei who came to trick us into opening the city gate to prepare for the Shu army's attack." So he asked the soldiers to shoot arrows at random. Jiang Wei turned around and saw that the Shu army was approaching, so he could only run up to the city of Gui.
Liang Qian saw Jiang Wei on the city wall and cursed: "How dare you, a rebel, trick me into opening the city gate! I already knew you surrendered to Shu!" So he sent soldiers to shoot random arrows.
Jiang Wei had no way to explain. He looked up to the sky and sighed, with tears in his eyes. He turned his horse and walked towards Chang'an. After walking less than a few miles, he came to a place with big trees and lush forests. He shouted and thousands of soldiers and horses came out. The leading Shu general was Guan Xing, who blocked the way.
Jiang Wei's men were tired and unable to resist, so they turned their horses and left. Suddenly a small car came out of the hillside. The man was wearing a silk scarf, a crane cloak, and a feather fan. It was Kong Ming.
Kong Ming said to Jiang Wei: "Why don't you surrender?"
Jiang Wei thought for a moment. There was Kong Ming in front of him and Guan Xing behind him. He had no way to go and could only dismount and surrender. Kong Ming quickly got off the horse and went to greet him. He took Jiang Wei's hand and said, "Since I left the thatched cottage, I have been looking for many talented people." I want to teach you what I have learned in my life, but I have never met a suitable person. Now that I have met you, my wish can be fulfilled."
Jiang Wei was very happy after hearing this and did not expect to meet the master.
