Chapter 124 Meng Huo

But Xue Bing rode his horse out of Meng Huo's main camp and met Zhang He. Yu Jin and his two men led dozens of troops to come. So he stood still. When the two men approached, they said: "What are the results of the two generals? Have they captured the generals of the barbarian army?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang He smiled bitterly, "I only saw the barbarian soldiers in this battle, but I didn't see half of the general." Yu Jin looked at Zhang He and thought to himself, "It seems that I'm not unlucky, Zhang He is just like me."

"So he shook his head at Xue Bing and said lightly, "I haven't seen half a barbarian general." After that, the two of them turned their eyes to Xue Bing, but they meant to ask who he had captured?

When Xue Bing saw the two of them looking at him together, she had to sigh. When the two of them saw Xue Bing's appearance, they knew that he had never captured the general.

The three of them looked at each other, sighed again, and only heard Xue Bing say, "Although they defeated the barbarian army now, all their generals fled. As long as Meng Huo climbed the high ground and called out, those barbarian soldiers and generals will be attached to their command. But this battle will continue to fight."

Zhang Heze said: "At worst, you can defeat him for a while. I was surrounded by him in the city for a long time, and I didn't feel angry until today. Thanks to General Xue and General Yu and the help of him, otherwise I would have to explain this to you."

Yu Jinze said: "It's too early to say this now. Now that the barbarians are defeated, it's better to chase and kill them. Maybe they can still capture Meng Huo."

Zhang He also said: "Even if Meng Huo cannot be captured, we can still conceal it and kill it and take back all the cities of Xichang and others."

When Xue Bing heard the words of the two, he nodded and said, "What the two generals said is so true. We will immediately lead our troops to chase after you. Even if we can't catch Meng Huo, we can still capture some southern barbarian generals." However, he expected that Xichang must have asked Zhuge Liang to take it.

Therefore, the matter of regaining Xichang was not mentioned.

After the three of them finished their plan, they integrated their troops and then left a thousand and some wounded soldiers back to the city to garrison. The three of them led a total of five thousand soldiers and chased them southwards.

The army rushed south and found some fleeing barbarians along the way, but they did not find a leading general. Most of the deserters were just in groups of three or three, and they were not in a team.

Xue Bing glanced around casually and saw that the barbarian soldiers had no intention of resisting at all, so he was too lazy to care about them.

As they headed south, all three of them were in front, for fear that the other two men would find the barbarian general first. However, the three generals ran from Yuezhi County for several days, but they did not catch a single barbarian general.

Until the army reached Xichang, the three of them led their troops to look at the Han army flags on the top of the city in a daze. Only Xue Bing looked at it for a moment and then said lightly: "Military Zhuge went south to attack Xichang."

Zhang He looked around. Hearing Xue Bing's soft words, he turned around and asked, "Is General Xue said that the person who captured this city was the Military Advisor Zhuge?"

Xue Bing smiled bitterly and said, "Not a military advisor, who can steal this city secretly?"

Yu Jin continued to look forward and suddenly pointed in front of him and said loudly: "The city gate is open!" As soon as this said, Xue Bing and Zhang Heju looked forward. The gate of Xichang City slowly opened, and a group of people ran out, and then scattered to both sides, leaving the people separated.

A four-wheeler was slowly pushed out. Who was the person sitting in the car? Next to the four-wheeler, it was Pang De and Zhang Yi.

When Xue Bing and others saw Zhuge Liang personally leading the army out to greet him, they hurriedly slapped the horses and led the troops to the front, and then got off the horses and said to Zhuge Liang: "The last general is to meet the military advisor!" At this time, all three of them were generals, just talking about the position of the court.

But it was above Zhuge Liang, so there was no need to kneel down.

Zhuge Liang gently waved the feather fan and said to Xue Bing with a smile: "Why did Zihan come so late? I only said that with Zihan's ability, he could break Menghuo's land in a few days in the morning."

Upon hearing this, Xue Bing had to smile bitterly and replied: "The road is difficult to move, and the army cannot find a way among the mountains, so it has been delayed for several days."

Zhuge Liang was a little stuck. He said, "The road is difficult to move. There is no detailed map for reference. I think Zihan suffered a lot along the way!"

Xue Bing said: "Fortunately I found the right path. I finally rushed to the city of Yuezhi."

After hearing this, Zhuge Liang nodded, and then saw Zhang He, Yu Jin and Xue Bing, all of whom were covered in dust, especially Xue Bing's silver armor, which was covered in dust, and under the dust, there was a vague dry blood stain.

Just by looking at it this way, we knew that the three of us had worked hard all the way and had killed them without resting. Then we said, "The three generals have worked hard all the way, let's go to the city with Liang, and then have a good rest."

Everyone then turned into the city. During this period, Zhang He asked Zhuge Liang, "Since the military advisor has attacked this city a long time ago, has Meng Huo ever caught it?" As soon as these words came out, Zhang Yi and Pang Degu looked strange. Zhang He was puzzled, so he looked at Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang shook his fan and replied with a smile: "Meng Huo was defeated by several generals for a while, and led some troops to escape. He was conquered by General Zhang Yi and General Pang De, but he had already captured."

Zhang He was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "Since you have captured the Barbarian King, the south can be settled! Have the military advisor thought about how to deal with this person? He must let him know the power of the Han Dynasty so that he dare not rebel again."

Zhuge Liang waited until Zhang He finished speaking, and then he chuckled and said, "Then Meng Huo had already asked me to release him."

Zhang He and Yu Jin both stood there in a daze when they heard this, widened their eyes and looked in disbelief. "Let them go?" Then they stood there, but forgot to continue moving forward.

Xue Bing shook his head beside him and said to himself: "It turns out that he has let go. Could it be that Zhuge Liang really plan to take a seven-capture and seven-pinning?" He looked up at Zhuge Liang and saw him shaking his feather fan lightly, looking like he was in his chest.

Xue Bing just saw that he had already had a solution, so he turned around and continued to look inside the city...

But a few days ago, Meng Huo was attacked by Xue Bing at night, and then the two front camps on the left and right were also attacked by Yu Jin and Zhang and He.

The soldiers on both sides did not obey the orders, and the army fled in scattered and knew that there was no chance of winning the battle, so they led some of their personal soldiers to flee south.

After traveling straight for several days, he was about to reach the city of Xichang. Meng Huo had not had any contact with Xichang for several days, but hesitated in his heart, not knowing whether he should go to Xichang or not.

But while he was thinking, he suddenly heard a cannon sound on the left and right. Pang De on the left and Zhang Yi on the right. There were soldiers and horses on both sides rushing out.

Meng Huo and his personal guards fled for several days and had no strength to resist. They were easily captured by the second generals and tied up and brought back to Xichang to see Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang arranged a matter of things and waited for Meng Huo to come, and then he left his bondage. Then he gave it to wine and food. He asked: "Now the King of Hanzhong is in charge of the two rivers, and the people under his rule are happy. Why did the Duke rebel?"

Meng Huo said: "The land in the south is originally the land of our tribe. Now I lead the troops and horses to restore the land of our tribe, how can I get the word "reversal?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Now my army is heading south and defeating the Duke's troops. Can the Duke be convinced?"

Meng Huo said: "Take tricks and attack at night. If our army is not prepared, how can we accept it?"

Zhuge Liang was not angry when he heard this, so he said, "I want to let you go now. If I defeat me again, can I accept it?"

Meng Huo said: "If you let me go back, recruit troops and fight with you. If you are defeated again, you will be convinced!" Zhuge Liang then let Meng Huo go and his troops leave...

The next day, Zhuge Liang invited Xue Bing to the General Office to discuss matters. After Xue Bing arrived, the generals rushed to the hall one after another.

When Zhuge Liang saw that the people had arrived, he said, "Now Meng Huo is not convinced and wants to fight again with our army. In order to make him return, I dare not rebel again, so I sent him away. Now the spy returns, saying that Meng Huo abandoned Luzhou City.

He rushed to Huichuan, recruited all kinds of barbarian soldiers, and called back all the barbarian generals, hoping to fight our army to a decisive battle here."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang He stood up and said, "The general of the Immortals fought with the barbarians many times and knew him very well. Now that he has stationed in Huichuan, the Immortals are willing to lead a army and capture Meng Huo. He presented it to the military advisor's tent."

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "General Zhang He is willing to leave. Liang agreed to it. Is it enough to assign three thousand elite soldiers to you?"

Zhang He didn't mind the lack of soldiers. He answered: "The barbarian soldiers have little combat power, and three thousand elite soldiers are enough!" After saying that, he stepped forward, received the order of the general, headed straight out, ordered troops and prepared horses.

Zhuge Liang saw Zhang He leaving and smiled and said, "Now the Barbarian King has been defeated for a while, so he must be more cautious. General Zhang He may not be able to win." After saying that, he ordered, "I would like to lead three thousand soldiers to support him."

If General Zhang wins, he will not come out. If he is defeated, he will lead his troops to rescue him. "When Yu Jin heard this, he also took the order to go.

When Pang De saw the two generals come out, he asked, "Since the military advisor knew that Meng Huo must have been on guard, why did he even let the two generals go?"

Zhuge Liang said: "Now Meng Huo abandoned Luzhou, but asked me to do useless work in the previous preparations. After garrisoning the army in Huichuan, I still didn't know what it intended, so I took General Zhang and He to test it.

"After speaking, he took the map and looked at it carefully. But when he saw that the river was close to Lushui, he said to the generals: "I originally sent Ma Zhong to lead the army to camp on the east side of Luzhou, and just waited for Meng Huo to fight our army to lead the troops out.

But I didn't expect that Meng Huo actually abandoned Luzhou and stationed troops in Huichuan."

Zhang Yi said: "But Meng Huo discovered General Ma Zhong's troops?"

Zhuge Liang said: "Otherwise, it seems that General Xue, General Meng Huo, killed too miserably, and could not gather enough troops for a while, so he continued to retreat in order to gain more time.

"After saying that, he glanced at Xue Bing, and saw that he was not squinting and looked calm, as if he was not doing anything.

Seeing that Xue Bing had no reaction, Zhuge Liang continued, "Now that Meng Huo retreated to Huichuan, the soldiers and food supplies can all be used to follow the Lu River. Moreover, to the east of Lu River, there are Jianning and other places. These counties are still under the occupation of the Barbarian King. Our army must be wary of the barbarian army coming suddenly from the side.

"When he said this, he looked at Xue Bing again. Seeing that he still looked like an old monk entering a state of meditation, Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "I need to ask General Xue to run up and lead his troops to camp between Huichuan and Lushui to prevent the enemy from coming from the east.

"After saying that, he looked at Xue Bing with a smile on his face.

When Xue Bing saw Zhuge Liang looking at him from time to time, he knew that he was making up for his own ideas. But he didn't say anything and just sat there obediently. Anyway, Zhuge Liang didn't call him, so he would not take the initiative to take on the job.

He now understood that the Nanzhong area was not only difficult to walk on the road, but also full of wild animals. It was not a place suitable for war, especially not his temper, so he was not as anxious as before.

However, Zhuge Liang seemed to be trying to make him mention it a few times, and when he saw that he didn't respond, he directly called his name. As a result, Xue Bing could not help but responded, and said, "The military advisor is in charge of the order."

When Zhuge Liang saw Xue Bing respond, he said, "General Xue led three thousand troops and horses to camp here.

I have already inquired about the local people that there is only one way to Huichuan here. If the barbarian army wants to cross the water and attack our flanks, they can only come from this. General Xue only needs to lead his troops here, which can stop his 100,000 troops."

Xue Bing looked at it and saw that Zhuge Liang's map was newly drawn. It was these days, so he found the local people and asked them carefully for a while, and a picture was made.

When Zhuge Liang saw this, he knew that Xue Bing was holding a simple picture made before going south, so he said, "General Xue is leaving here, so he can leave with this picture, so that he can tell the road." After that, he took the picture and handed it to Xue Bing.
