"Calabash Valley? That shouldn't be able to accommodate many people, right?"
According to Liu Zhang's understanding, anything with the word gourd and valley will not be too big.
It is rare to be able to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
Pang Tong took the time to shake his head.
"No, this Calabash Valley is not a valley in the traditional sense, but a huge plain formed between four mountains. It was named after Calabash Valley because its shape resembles a gourd."
"The Calabash Valley is very vast. Even if our army and the Jingzhou army all attack in, it can be accommodated."
Liu Zhang suddenly realized.
This is not a valley at all. It is simply a vacant space in the middle where the four mountains are not connected together!
With this kind of terrain extending in all directions, even a blockade cannot be achieved without a huge amount of troops.
"Evil comes, Han Sheng!"
Upon hearing Liu Zhang's call, Dian Wei and Huang Zhong rushed over immediately.
"King Qin, what are your orders?"
"Order the soldiers to slow down and suspend pursuit."
"What!"
Dian Wei was puzzled.
The Jingzhou Army is clearly right in front of us, so why delay?
"King Qin, wouldn't the delay allow the big-eared thief to escape?"
Liu Zhang did not explain and issued the order again.
"Execute military orders!"
"As you command!"
Huang Zhong and Dian Wei did not dare to ask any more questions. After accepting the order, they quickly ordered the surrounding generals to convey Liu Zhang's military orders.
The sudden slowdown of an army of hundreds of thousands of people is also a very complicated matter.
If you are not careful, there will be a stampede accident.
Therefore, Liu Zhang led the front army to attack for a while before gradually slowing down.
By the time the army stopped to rest, the outline of Calabash Valley was already in sight.
Not long after, the generals of the Qin army gathered around Liu Zhang.
"King Qin, why don't you continue the pursuit?"
As expected, this is the doubt in almost everyone's mind.
Liu Zhang smiled and explained to everyone.
"Generals, since Lu Xun is resisting Liu Bei at the front, why should I be anxious?"
"Let the soldiers rest for a while and take a breath. Once they have recovered their strength, it will not be too late to enter the bloody battle in the valley!"
Everyone suddenly understood and gave the order again to let the soldiers rest peacefully.
Only Liu Zhang and Pang Tong looked thoughtfully in the direction of Hulu Valley.
After resting for an hour, Liu Zhang ordered the army to be reorganized.
Hundreds of thousands of people lined up one after another, looking very orderly.
Liu Zhang mounted the horse king and turned to face all the soldiers.
"Soldiers, have you rested? Next, a bloody battle will begin!"
"The big-eared thief Liu Bei is in the Calabash Valley ahead. What do you think we should do?"
The soldiers in the front row shouted at the top of their lungs.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The word "kill" is full of indomitable momentum and courage!
Soon, it spread to the central and rear armies.
Maybe these people didn't even hear Liu Zhang's lecture in front of the battle, and they didn't know why they roared the word "kill".
But under the aggravation of emotion, he also roared.
The momentum is no weaker than that of the former army.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The roar reaches the sky!
Liu Zhang was extremely satisfied with this.
With a wave of his hand, he ordered the army to march again.
Only this time, the speed was extremely slow. Liu Zhang personally controlled the speed from the front, as if he was taking a walk.
The Calabash Valley is clearly visible to the naked eye, and we walked for half an hour before arriving at the mouth of the valley.
Liu Zhang did not hesitate and entered the valley immediately.
At this time, Dian Wei stepped forward and blocked Liu Zhang's way.
"King Qin!"
Liu Zhang stopped.
"Evil comes, what's wrong?"
Dian Wei frowned with his thick eyebrows.
"King Qin, according to what Military Advisor Pang said, Lu Xun should be ambushing him in the valley, right?"
Liu Zhang nodded.
"good."
"Then why are there no killing cries in the valley?"
It was so quiet in Calabash Valley, so quiet that even Dian Wei felt something was wrong.
But Liu Zhang didn't pay attention, instead he smiled indifferently.
"Haha, maybe Lu Xun will catch all Liu Bei in one fell swoop!"
"Okay, don't waste time, let's enter the valley quickly."
Dian Wei was a little anxious and wanted to persuade him.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, he was pulled by Huang Zhong beside him.
The meaning is obvious, leave quickly!
In desperation, he had no choice but to follow Liu Zhang into the valley.
After bypassing the foot of the mountain, the Qin army finally entered the interior of Calabash Valley.
You won’t know if you don’t look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.
This is not a valley, it is no different from a large plain.
The mountains on both sides are so far apart that the gap in the middle cannot be called a valley at all.
It is so wide that there is no problem in building a city.
Setting up an ambush in a place like this wouldn't be very effective without a hundred thousand people.
Zongheng is really too big!
It's hard to intercept even if you run around.
After a moment of wonder, Liu Zhang continued to lead the army forward.
In about a quarter of an hour, all the Qin troops entered the valley.
After the army was deployed, it didn't feel crowded at all.
After walking for another quarter of an hour, they finally saw the shadow of the Jingzhou Army ahead.
However, they are not fighting, but are preparing for it!
Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang and others rode their horses and stood in front of the formation.
Behind him, the Jingzhou soldiers were dressed in scattered clothes, but they formed a tight military formation.
The previous defeat was wiped out.
Their eyes met, and the moment he saw Liu Zhang, Liu Bei almost jumped up with excitement.
"Hahahaha, Liu Zhang, you are finally here!"
"not good!"
Dian Wei exclaimed.
At this moment, even he felt something bad.
But Liu Zhang still smiled and looked very relaxed.
"When evil comes, why panic?"
"King Qin, that's not quite right."
It was Liu Bei's army who was clearly ambushed, but now he was ready to wait for the Qin army.
Even a fool can tell something is wrong.
"When evil comes, don't be impatient. Save your strength and prepare to fight later!"
Although he was very puzzled, Dian Wei nodded heavily.
Pick up a pair of halberds and be prepared to fight at any time.
"Liu Zhang, do you have any last words? Say it now. It's too late!"
Liu Beice immediately stepped forward, his face filled with joy.
"Big-eared thief, are you arrogant?"
"a ha ha ha!"
Liu Bei looked up to the sky and laughed again.
"Liu Zhang, aren't you curious, where is Lu Xun?"
Liu Zhang shook his head gently.
"Not curious."
Liu Bei was slightly startled and asked again.
"Aren't you curious why he didn't ambush Gu?"
Liu Zhang shook his head again.
"Not curious."
Liu Bei still didn't give up and continued to ask,
"Liu Zhang, aren't you curious as to why Gu is waiting for you here?"
"Big-eared thief, are you annoyed or not? Gu said, I'm not curious or curious!"
"you...!"
Liu Zhang's impatient look made Liu Bei angry to death.
He cursed Liu Zhang in his heart for not being a human being.
Normal person, who would face this situation and not be curious?
