Chapter 217

Seeing the Xiliang soldiers retreat temporarily, Chen Ren Ke did not think that the pursuit was over. On the contrary, Chen Ren paid more and more attention to the battle. It seems that Lv Bu is not the only commander in chief of the Xiliang soldiers. There is a more intelligent commander behind the Xiliang soldiers. However, the order to withdraw did not mean that he gave up the pursuit of Chen Ren, but temporarily avoided the Shandao camp with high morale, and only followed him far away. I believe that this Xiliang soldier would never come to pursue him with such an army. There must be other troops who did not catch up on the road. Maybe they were ambushed in the middle of Qishan.

Thinking of this, Chen Ren could not help but take a cold breath. Fortunately, he felt something wrong and stopped the team from entering Qishan in time. Otherwise, once in the Qi Mountain, Lu Bu would take the army and drive Chen Ren to the trap they had set before. At that time, he was afraid that Chen Ren and the 50000 mountain sword camp would all be here. Chen Ren secretly cheered for the makers of the enemy's plan. It was really a poison! But for the news from Yanzhou, Jia Xu, a poison man, had turned to Cao Cao. Chen Ren would have thought that this was Jia Xu's strategy for Dong min.

Li Ru! Chen Ren can't think of another person around Dong Min who can come up with such a vicious scheme. It seems that he has underestimated this man before. Chen Ren directly stopped the soldiers of Shandao camp who wanted to pursue him and ordered them to retreat slowly. Sure enough, those who had just withdrawn from Xiliang followed closely. Chen Ren's cold hum, also ignore, although the terrain of this intersection is good, but after all, not suitable for long-term garrison. It's OK that both sides were soldiers just now. If we change cavalry or even a wave of archers, Shandao camp will lose a lot. Therefore, Chen Ren had to find a high ground to defend the enemy's attack.

Such places may be difficult to find in Jiangdong, but they are everywhere in Hanzhong. Chen Ren completely ignored the Xiliang soldiers who were closely behind him. He drove southeast along the Han River, while observing whether there was suitable terrain around.

After walking for about an hour or two, Chen Ren finally found a small mountain. On the back of the mountain are three steep cliffs, only the west side is a narrow passage. As soon as he saw the mountain, Chen Ren's eyes lit up immediately. It can be regarded as a natural defensive bunker! Chen Ren quickly issued a military order, the soldiers of Shandao camp ran to the mountain.

The Xiliang soldiers who followed him obviously didn't expect this kind of change to happen suddenly. Suddenly, there was a riot and they were completely at a loss. After a long time, this hastily followed up, but it was too late. Under the command of Chen Ren, the soldiers of Shandao camp quickly set up their positions by the mountain road. Although Shandao camp did not prepare bows and arrows, it was lucky that there were many large stones on the mountain. The Xiliang soldiers who wanted to follow up the mountain were attacked by the stones left by the Shandao camp, and they were beaten to pieces one by one. The commander of the Xiliang army seemed to see that he could not rush up at all, so he immediately issued an order to stop the attack on the mountain.

Chen Ren looked at the Xiliang soldiers who had begun to retreat on the mountain road. He was very lucky to find such a good place to stay before dark. As long as he had this natural protection, Chen Ren was confident of resisting the enemy's attack. The battle of Yuzhang in those years was one of Chen Ren's famous battles. In terms of defensive tactics, Chen Ren thought that he was the best in the world.

After carefully arranging the defensive positions, Chen Ren ordered the remaining soldiers to prepare defensive equipment. Although there are many stones on this mountain, they will be used up one day. Chen Ren does not believe that the other side will let go of himself so much that he will face a more violent attack tomorrow. Fortunately, there were not only stones on the top of the mountain, but also a thick forest, which provided a lot of raw materials for Chen Ren to continue his defense.

At this time, at the foot of the mountain, due to the failure to attack the peak, Xiliang soldiers began to set up camp at the foot of the mountain. Before nightfall, as Chen Ren had expected, three groups of troops had entered the built camp, and the Xiliang army at the foot of the mountain had accumulated to more than 100000 people.

In the big tent in the center of Xiliang camp, there are several people sitting there, but the one sitting at the top is no one else. It is Dong Min who is in charge of Chang'an and takes the son of heaven to command the princes! I'm afraid even Chen Ren didn't expect that Dong min would leave Chang'an and personally participate in the plan to intercept him.

Sitting by Dong min's side, it was Dong min's most valued military adviser, Li Ru, the first wise man of the Xiliang army. At the bottom of the table are four generals, Yang Feng, fan Hou, Li Min, and Guo Si. It seems that in order to defeat Chen Ren, Dong Min has put his own strength to the bottom of the box.

Although all of them sat down according to their priorities, they did not speak. A sergeant suddenly came in and saluted them. Then he came to Li Ru and whispered in his ear. Li Ru frowned, then nodded and waved to the sergeant to step down.

Dong min turned his head and asked Li Ru, "what's up? Will you come first or not? "

Li Ru shook his head and said, "the red rabbit horse was killed by Chen Ren this time. Wen Hou is very sad. Now he is burying the red rabbit horse outside the camp."

"Pooh A laugh came from one side. Li Ru and Dong min frowned and looked at each other. They saw that Li Min and Guo Si had ironic smiles on their faces. Li Min said, "isn't it a horse? Do you need this? If you die, you can have a roast horse meat! They're buried! Ridiculous One side of Guo Si also nodded, as if not to eat a delicious horse meat and feel sorry.Dong Min said with a gloomy face: "General Li! General Guo! This red rabbit horse is the king of horses in the world. It was a gift given to Fengxian by the second elder brother! This horse is no match for an ordinary horse

Seeing Dong min seems to be a little angry, the two quickly changed their faces and solemnly clasped their fists at Dong min. Dong min also ignored the two men and said to the crowd, "since we can't get there first, let's start first! Military division, the Dongwu army has already gone up the mountain. What should we do next? "

Li Ru stroked his beard and said in a deep voice: "Chen Ren is the most vigilant general I have ever seen in my life. Although Chen Ren's suspicion was aroused by Zhang Wei's early attack, it was also because of Chen Ren's vigilance that he withdrew from the city in time to escape from the heaven. This time, at the mouth of Naqi Valley, Chen Ren's judgment of changing ahead of time made our previous plan fail! "

Li Zhen and Guo Si sat down with disdain and dissatisfaction on their faces. It seemed that they were not happy with Li Ru's elevation of the enemy, while Yang Feng and fan Hou on the other side could not help thinking of the previous battle of Hanguguan. Yang Feng nodded his head and said, "the military master is right. No matter how we line up and arrange our troops under Hangu pass that day, Chen Ren can always take the lead to respond. Although Chen Ren's commander looks ordinary, it always makes us step into the trap he has already arranged, and even leads us by the nose. "

"Hum!" Guo Si gave a cold hum and said, "prime minister! At the end of the day, he will not believe this evil. Tomorrow, some general will take his men and horses to attack the mountain and take down the head of Chen Ren and come back! "

Yang Feng took a contemptuous look at Guo Si, and with Guo Si's ability, what else did he say to take Chen Ren's head? I'm afraid that Chen Ren will stab him in the horse. As early as when Dong Zhuo was alive, Yang Feng and fan Hou were at odds with Li Li and Guo Si and divided into two factions in the Xiliang army. Although both Yang Feng and fan Hou were new generals and had unstable foundation in the Xiliang army, they were supported by Li Ru, so they were able to compete with the two veteran soldiers in the Xiliang army, Li Zhen and Guo Si.

For Guo Si's request for war, Li Zhen naturally supported 100% of the time, while Yang Feng and fan Hou were silent with the intention of watching Guo Si make a fool of himself. However, Li Ru could not watch Guo Si die, which would only make the morale of Lu Bu fall again and again. Li Ru immediately said: "General Guo should not despise Chen Ren. Chen Ren can be called the first general in the world, and he has not been defeated for so many years. This is not without reason. A general should not be a prime minister but a prime minister

Unfortunately, Guo Si has confirmed that Li Ru is on the side of Yang Feng and fan Hou. In Guo Si's opinion, Li Ru's persuasion is not willing to let him do meritorious deeds. Guo Si coldly hummed, "this is not the right thing to say! Even if Chen Ren was able to fight again, could he be worth thousands of troops alone? He only has less than 20000 men under his command, but our army has a hundred thousand elite! Tomorrow, I'll send all the 100000 people out there, and I'm afraid he'll play with any young doll When he said the last sentence, Guo Si also glanced at Yang Feng with his eyes. The word "doll" was accentuated in his mouth. It is self-evident that the meaning of pointing at mulberry and cursing locust trees is self-evident.

"Hum!" Yang Feng didn't understand Guo Si's meaning, but Dong min sat there, and he was not easy to get angry, so he had to snore coldly.

Li Ru pressed his forehead with a headache. He supported Yang Feng and fan Hou, but he didn't mean to fight against Li and Guo Si. He simply thought that they had generals. Who would have thought that he would offend Li Feng and Guo Si. As a result, the relationship between the two men and him was so tense that they could not listen to his opinions. Li Ru raised his head and looked at Dong min. now only Dong min could suppress them.

Dong min did not fail to live up to Li Ru's expectations and said to Guo Si, "General Guo! Although Chen Ren was young, he had made brilliant achievements in the war, and his army of Dongwu was also very powerful. It's really not that simple and can be dealt with. We must not act rashly. Everything is better according to the military division's arrangement. "
