Liu Zhang guarded Jiameng Pass with Yang Huaizhen, and personally led 40,000 troops to lead Zhang Ren, Yan Yan, Wei Yan, Wu Ban and other generals to kill Ben Hanzhong, Hanzhong Zhang Lu was in a hurry, and urgently ordered his younger brother Zhang Wei to lead Yang Ang, Yang Ren, Yang Bai and other generals out of Micang Road, Yang Ren and Yang Bai 20,000 people guarded Baishui Pass, and Zhang Wei took Yang Ang with a total of 30,000 troops to guard Tiandang Mountain.

Tiandang Mountain, Baishui Pass is the two major gateways of Hanzhong, the danger is abnormal, it can be said that a husband is a pass and ten thousand people are not open, Liu Zhang adopted Fa Zheng's suggestion, avoid the strong and weak, with Yan Yan and Leng Bao rate 10,000 soldiers to Tun Tiandang Mountain West Siege, since the lead of 30,000 soldiers and horses in Baishui Pass fifteen miles down the village.

The water of the Bailong River is rushing endlessly, and the Baishui Guan Tong is located between the dangerous mountains and bad waters, the high mountains are majestic, and the mountains and rivers are picturesque.

Liu Zhang took Fa Zheng Wei Yan to the slope of the mountain in front of the pass, immediately on the top of the mountain, looking at it, Fa Zheng said worriedly: "Such a terrain, if you get 5,000 soldiers, 100,000 troops will not want to cross the thunder pool, now the enemy is strong and I am weak, it is not easy to take the pass." ”

Wei Yan chuckled lightly and said disdainfully: "The pass is a good pass, but I don't know how the people guarding the pass are, there are no flaws in the pass, but the people guarding the pass have flaws." ”

Liu Zhang said with a smile: "General Wei is arrogant, but he has a good strategy to break the enemy. ”

Wei Yan looked at the banner in front of the pass, and said loudly: "Look at me fighting him first for a while." ”

On the day of the erection, Wei Yan led 5,000 soldiers to the front of the pass, beating the drum to challenge, and the guards of Baishui Pass would not be able to escape, so that for three days, the guards of Baishui Pass were slightly sluggish.

On the fourth day, the guard Yang Bai finally couldn't hold it back, and was about to lead the army to kill, and another guard Yang Ren rushed up with several horsemen and intercepted Yang Bai at the city gate.

"Brother Bai, but you want to lead the army?" Yang Bai, Yang Ren, and Yang Ang are from the same Yang clan in Hanzhong, and according to their generation, the two are brothers, but Yang Bai was born in the lineage, and Yang Ren and Yang Ang are from the side branches.

"So what?" Yang Bai's eyes slanted, and he glanced at Yang Ren with the corner of his eye.

"General Zhang Wei divided the troops and waited for us, and repeatedly told us not to go to war easily, we should guard the pass, Liu Zhang's army is coming from afar, and it is difficult to transport grain, and the army will inevitably retreat after a long time."

"Nonsense." Yang Bai reprimanded: "I think that the original general fought with Pang Xi several times, even if the soldiers were few and far behind, it was rare to be defeated, but now our army is more than Liu Zhang, but we have to guard the pass, what a nest, the war is changing rapidly, how can I be bound by what General Zhang said ten days ago." ”

After Yang Bai finished speaking, he was about to lead the army out of the customs, Yang Ren said quickly: "At the beginning, Pang Xi did not come to attack, but bluffed, and now Liu Zhang has done his best to raise the army in Shuzhong, although there are few soldiers, but the soldiers are brave and brave, watching Fucheng and Brazil World War II, Liu Zhang is a small number of people, and it must not be taken lightly." ”

Yang Bai grabbed the horse's head and shouted coldly: "Yang Ren, are you afraid that I will make great achievements alone?" ”

Yang Bai's face was angry, Yang Ren was stunned for a while, although Yang Bai's position was the same as his own, he was born noble, and his brother was Yang Song, one of the leaders of the Yang clan, Zhang Lu's confidant and strategist, was powerful, and he had nothing to do with Yang Bai, so he could only watch Yang Bai lead the army out of the customs, Yang Ren sighed, and went to carefully arrange the customs defense.

Wei Yan was overjoyed when he saw that there was an enemy general coming out of the customs, and he raised his sword and shouted: "Wu Na thief general, can you dare to fight with Yiyang Wei Yan?" ”

Yang Bai snorted coldly and slapped his horse out: "That Yiyang child, watch me Yang Bai behead you." ”

"Speak wildly."

Wei Yan raised his sword and jumped on the horse, the two horses intersected, Wei Yan cut off Yang Bai's big knife with a knife, Yang Bai was shocked, and ran away, Wei Yan shouted: "Where to go." Wei Yanqing took out a hard bow behind his back, and an arrow shot out, hitting Yang Bai in the back, and Yang Bai fled with his horse.

Wei Yan's knife was raised, five thousand soldiers covered up together, Yang Bai returned to the camp in pain, resentful, relying on many soldiers, and greeted Wei Yan, at this time he suddenly heard the sound of drums, and suddenly killed two standard military horses in the jungle on both sides, one was Wu Ban, the other was Gao Pei, surrounded on three sides, and the Hanzhong soldiers were already slack, and they were besieged, and they were quickly defeated, and they retreated to Baishui Pass together.

Wei Yan, Wu Ban, and Gao Pei pursued closely and killed in front of Baishui Pass, Yang Bai urgently ordered the city gate guards to put down the drawbridge switch, but there was no answer, Yang Ren walked to the pass with a knife.

"Yang Ren, speed switch, do you want me to die in front of the pass?" Yang Bai shouted anxiously and angrily.

Yang Ren shouted: "Brother Bai, at this time, the Sichuan army will inevitably cover up, so I have to wronged you." ”

"How can it be?" Yang Bai was furious: "Yang Ren, have you eaten leopard gall? My brother is the first strategist under Shijun (Zhang Lu), if you dare to harm me, be careful that there is no place to be buried when you die. ”

"In order to protect the foundation of the teacher, what if I Yang Ren dies without a place to be buried?"

"You." Yang Bai's mouth spit blood, coupled with an arrow in the back, rolled off the horse at once, the Hanzhong soldiers were in a mess in front of the pass, Wei Yan and other generals killed together, slashed and killed, the Hanzhong soldiers were killed and wounded everywhere, the Sichuan army took advantage of the situation to tackle the key problems, but Yang Ren was tightly guarded, and he couldn't go down for a long time, so he had to retreat.

"The last general is ashamed that he failed to take the Baishui Pass, please punish the lord." Wei Yan, Wu Ban, and Gao Pei knelt down to plead guilty.

Liu Zhang waved his hand and said: "The three generals are hard, Baishui Pass is dangerous, how can it be easily taken, today General Wei beheaded Yang Bai, folded nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Hanzhong Army, and won the first victory. ”

"If it weren't for Yang Renxiao'er's refusal to accept the defeated soldiers into the city, we would have almost succeeded." Gao Pei stood up and said unwillingly.

Liu Zhang smiled and said: "Guanbaishui Pass is tightly guarded, and there is a calm judgment, this Yang Ren is a general, is it possible that those with the word 'Ren' in their names are all good generals?" ”

"Hahaha." The generals laughed together, and Zhang Ren's face on the side was calm and waveless, but there was also a little smile between his eyebrows.

At this moment, a soldier came to report urgently: "Lord, it's not good, General Yan Yan was defeated by the enemy general Zhang Wei in front of Tiandang Mountain, and his troops were lost. ”

"What?" Liu Zhang said angrily: "How did he Yan Yan lead the army, when he divided the troops, Mr. Fa repeatedly told him to put up more banners, contain the defenders of Tiandang Mountain, and not go to war, why did he Yan Yan disobey?" ”

The soldier said: "It was General Leng Bao who couldn't stand Yang Ang's insults, went out of the camp to meet the enemy, and was besieged by Yang Ang's army. ”

"Smack." Liu Zhang slapped his palm on the case: "Leng Bao has courage and no strategy, General Wei finally won a battle at Baishui Pass, and it was all destroyed by this reckless man, and he ordered Leng Bao to be stripped of all his powers, demoted to a foot pawn, and stood by for the crime." ”

"Yes."

After the soldiers withdrew from the camp, Fa Zheng stepped forward and said: "Lord, I think the defeat of Yan Yan and Leng Bao is not a bad thing, we can use it to turn defeat into victory." ”

"Oh?" Liu Zhang frowned: "How to turn defeat into victory?" ”

"Hide from the world." Fa Zheng slowly spit out four words.

"Say specific." Liu Zhang said impatiently.

Fa Zheng smiled and said: "Now the situation of the enemy and us, our side takes Baishui Pass as the real and Tiandang Mountain as the void, Yan Yan and Leng Bud are defeated, which has exposed the weakness of our army, and the many banners are useless, and General Wei defeated the Hanzhong army and beheaded Yang Bai, and our army in front of Baishui Pass is magnificent.

On the other hand, the Hanzhong Army, the defenders of Baishui Pass watched Yang Bai's nearly 10,000 troops annihilated in front of Baishui Pass, morale was low, and soldiers were scarce, and Zhang Wei of Tiandang Mountain had just won a big victory, and he must be proud, and he knew that Yan Yan's camp was empty, and the defense of Tiandang Mountain was bound to be lax, why didn't we adjust the direction of attack and abandon Baishui Pass and attack Tiandang Mountain? ”

Liu Zhang frowned and said: "I'm afraid that it's not appropriate, even if the defense of Tiandang Mountain is lax, Zhang Wei is not a mediocre general, and the 30,000 army is not something we can overcome with strength." ”

"Yes." Gao Pei also said: "Mr. Fa said that the morale of Baishui Pass is low and the soldiers are scarce, so we might as well attack Baishui Pass." ”

Fa Zheng smiled: "Since General Gao Pei thinks that we should attack Baishui Pass, then my plan to hide from the sky and cross the sea is half of the success." ”
