Chapter 159: Reversal
From Jiangge to Jiangyou, it is a journey of three or four days, but Fu Yi doubled the road, and it only took two and a half days to arrive at Jiangyou.
When he arrived in Jiangyou, Fu Yan was stunned, and it was not Jiangyou's guard Ma Miao who welcomed him into the city, but his two sons Fu Zhi and Fu Zhao. Listening to Fu Zhi and Fu Zhao's detailed description, Fu Yan learned that Ma Miao's treason was beheaded by Liu Yin, and the matter had been reported to the imperial court.
As for Liu Yin, he had already left Jiangyou four days ago and was currently engaged with the Wei army at Jingjun Mountain.
"Why didn't you two bring Jiangyou's defenders to Jingjun Mountain with Wen Xuan, with his strength of eight or nine hundred people, can he withstand the tens of thousands of Wei troops?" Fu Yan questioned his two sons.
Fu Zhi and Fu Zhao said with a look of grievance: "We also want to go to Jingjun Mountain with our brother-in-law, but he doesn't allow us to go, so we have to defend Jiangyou Pass." ”
"How's the battle going over there?"
"The news came back a day ago, the battle at Jingjun Mountain was very fierce, and the casualties of our army and the Wei army were quite large, and a batch of grain and crossbow arrows were sent from Jiangyou, and there will be the latest news until tomorrow."
Fu Yan naturally couldn't wait for the new news to come, and after a short stop in Jiangyou, he immediately led his army to Qingchuankou, preparing to go to Jingjun Mountain on foot.
As soon as he arrived at Qingchuankou, Fu Yan saw Liu Yin and his party from a distance, his heart tightened, it was because Jingjun Mountain was lost, and when he saw Liu Yin, Fu Yan was slightly relieved, and finally he was not late, and it was not difficult to regain the lost position. If Liu Yin really has any accidents. He really regretted it for the rest of his life.
"Wenxuan. It's okay if you're okay, it doesn't matter if Jingjun Mountain is lost, now we will retreat to Jiangyou, rely on the pass, and block Deng Ai is not a problem. I will ask the general for help, as long as the reinforcements arrive, Deng Ai will be destroyed under the Jiangyou City. ”
Liu Yin looked at the bottom of the mountain and said, "How many people did my father-in-law bring this time?" ”
"Three thousand centaurs."
Liu Yin smiled. said: "That's enough to destroy Deng Ai, why send reinforcements." ”
Fu Yan couldn't help but be stunned, and said in surprise: "Didn't you say that Deng Ai brought 30,000 elites this time, how could 3,000 men and horses fight with them?" ”
Liu Yin smiled and said: "Deng Ai's 30,000 soldiers and horses are true, but at this time, more than ninety percent of them have been wiped out by me, and there are only one or two thousand people left, and my father-in-law's three thousand people are enough to clean him up." ”
"Kill ninety percent?" Fu Yan's mouth was wide enough to swallow an egg, and he was dumbfounded: "Didn't you only bring less than a thousand people, how is this possible?" ”
Deng Ai's combat power Fu Yi is very clear, and he has been fighting with him in Longxi for many years. Deng Ai is an extremely formidable opponent in terms of his ability to govern the army and march to fight. Even if the Shu army has 100,000 troops, it is by no means easy to eat Deng Ai's 30,000 horses, so as soon as Fu Yi heard that Deng Ai's army was here, he immediately had the idea of retreating, 3,000 people could not defeat Deng Ai's 30,000 army no matter what, only retreat to Jiangyou and use the pass, maybe there is still the possibility of holding each other.
Now Liu Yin actually said that he had defeated more than ninety percent of Deng Ai's men, that is, Deng Ai's army had lost more than 20,000, Fu Yan pinched himself fiercely, and his heart hurt, he realized that it was not in a dream, but he couldn't imagine how Liu Yin could do this.
Liu Yin pulled him to stand at the highest place of the Qingchuan Pass, from here, condescending, unobstructed, sure enough, you can see that the Wei army is chasing in this direction, the number is sparse, it seems, it is really only one or two thousand people.
"Father-in-law, the details will be presented later, at this moment Deng Ai's chasing troops have arrived, he does not know that our reinforcements have arrived, so the whole army can immediately counterattack and catch him off guard." Qingchuankou is low on both sides and high in the middle, Liu Yin is standing on the horn mouth at this time, the situation on both sides can be seen clearly, the Wei army is still two or three miles away at the moment, and it does not know that the reinforcements of the Shu army have arrived, and it is struggling to attack Qingchuankou, if you counterattack at this time, the Wei army will be unprepared.
As soon as Fu Yan saw that the military situation was urgent, he didn't care about what to say, and immediately handed over the command of the army to Liu Yin, who took full command.
Liu Yin also took it as a deed, and immediately commanded the Shu army to assemble the formation and launch a counterattack.
Fu Yan's 3,000 men and horses were the troops that withdrew after the fall of Yang'an Pass, and the defeat of Yang'an Pass made it difficult for these soldiers to hold their heads up in the Sword Pavilion army, and they had been longing for a chance to take revenge and prove themselves. There are many Shu troops in the Sword Pavilion, they naturally can't get a fight, this time they rushed to Jiangyou, everyone held their breath in their hearts, and when they saw the Wei soldiers at this time, they were all red-eyed, eager to be ashamed. Liu Yin gave an order, and the Shu army shouted and rushed down like a bamboo.
The Wei army fought hard again and again, and chased dozens of miles of mountain roads, and at this moment it really came to the end of the strong crossbow, but there were only more than 100 people left to bully Liu Yin, so they chased and killed them with their lives. Seeing that Liu Yin stayed at the mouth of Qingchuan, the Wei soldiers were all vying for the lead, all wanting to grab the first credit, but as soon as they climbed halfway up the mountain, they heard the rumbling of war drums on the mountain, and the sound of killing shook the sky, and they didn't know where to gush out of the Shu soldiers who couldn't do it, swallowing like a tiger, unstoppable, and rushing down from the top of the mountain all the way.
In order to guard against Liu Yin's terrible weapons, although the Wei soldiers pursued all the way, they were in groups of threes and threes, and there was no neat formation at all.
The entire offensive and defensive situation was immediately reversed, and the Wei army fled and collapsed.
Deng Ai was originally in the rear army, the rout in front of him was defeated and retreated, and his position was also rushed, Deng Ai was furious, pulled his sword to kill the deserters, Deng Zhong fled back and reported to him: "Father, the big thing is not good, the reinforcements of the Shu army have arrived, and our army can't resist the enemy!" ”
Deng Ai stood on a high place, saw the brigade of the Shu army, couldn't help but turn pale, and sighed: "I can't imagine that this Yinping Trail has become the burial place of my Deng Ai!" Providence? ”
"Father, withdraw quickly, if you don't leave, the Shu army will attack." Deng Zhong said eagerly.
Deng Ai looked at the few remaining remnants, and said with a wry smile: "If there is really a way to retreat, my father must not attack the mountain knowing that he can't do it, and now, the defeat has been decided, and you and my father and son may have no hope of returning to Longxi." ”
"There is no endless road, no matter what, first escape the catastrophe in front of you." Deng Zhongqiang pulled Deng Ai to retreat, at this time, the chasing soldiers of the Shu army came very fast, and they had besieged them in the core, Deng Zhong rushed left and right, protecting Deng Ai desperately to fight a bloody road, looking at the direction of Jingjun Mountain.
