Pang Xi had no sleep all night, tossing and turning thinking about whether to fight or defend, just like when Liu Yan and Ma Teng attacked Chang'an, escorted the son of the Liu family into Shu, Jia Long rebelled, Zhao Wei rebelled, these life-and-death choices Pang Xi chose the right one, and this time, can he choose the right one?

guard, maybe the bamboo basket was empty, and even Zhang Lu crossed the river and demolished the bridge. In battle, the army may be defeated and killed, and with Liu Zhang's tyranny, there will be a disaster of extermination.

The crescent moon was west, and the morning light was faint, Pang Xi finally felt sleepy, but then he heard a knock on the door, and Pang Xi yelled impatiently: "What's so urgent, get down." ”

"General." The voice of the commander of the pro-soldiers came from outside: "There is news from Jiameng Pass, Jiameng Pass is lost." ”

"What?" As if receiving a heavy hammer, Pang Xi jumped up from the bed, opened the door, and shouted: "How is it possible, there are thousands of guards in Jiameng Pass, and the danger is abnormal, Liu Zhang has no siege equipment at all, will they not be able to fly?" ”

The commander of the pro-soldiers stood aside, and a defeated soldier of Jiamengguan knelt on the ground, and said with sincere fear: "General, it was the rebels of Baling Pass who took Jiameng Pass, and they, they have the seal of General Pang Ming in their hands, and General He didn't know that Baling had been lost, so he opened the city gate......"

The defeated soldiers couldn't say any more, and Pang Xi said sharply: "What about Yanren, I want to chop him to pieces." ”

"General He has died in battle." The defeated soldier replied with Sereno.

Pang Xi staggered back a few steps, his face changed sharply, and he muttered: "It's over, it's over, Jia Mengguan is lost, Zhang Lu can't enter Xichuan, and when the Chengdu army arrives, Brazil will fall, and I am in danger." ”

Seeing that Pang Xi was panicked, the commander of the pro-army stepped forward and said: "General, I don't think it is necessary, although Jiameng Pass is lost, there are not many troops, and they are all surrendered troops, Zhang Lu has a full 60,000 army, and he will be able to conquer it quickly." ”

"What if you can't conquer it?"

The sudden defeat made Pang Xi think of Jia Long at the beginning, Qu Tian's words were infinitely magnified in his heart, and he said to himself in a loud voice, he couldn't wait for Liu Zhang's reinforcements to arrive in Chengdu, absolutely not.

"Order, the generals will deliberate, go out of the city today to meet Liu Zhang."

The Brazilian generals gathered in the big tent with murderous spirit, these generals are also the old foundation of the Dongzhou soldiers, although they are not as elite as the Dongzhou soldiers trained by Liu Yan, but they are also brave, the reason why they lost more than Zhang Lu won was because Pang Xi did not want to win.

"Liu Zhang has no way, perverse, cruel Zhongliang, we have to fight today, you listen, today's battle, our army is three times that of Liu Zhang, there is no doubt about victory, all generals must move forward bravely, after defeating the enemy, pursue with all their might, until Liu Zhang is killed, but those who retreat will be beheaded."

"Yes." The generals agreed.

Pang Xi saw that Deng Zhi was silent, and seemed to disapprove of going to war, and now he couldn't care so much, so he preached: "Deng Zhi is cowardly, which is not conducive to war, so he ordered the exile of Xichong Duwei." ”

"The last general will obey the command." Deng Zhi didn't say anything, and walked out of the sword without looking back.

Pang Xi took Qu Tian and other generals out of the hall, many civil officials on the stone stairs outside rushed over, when the first civil official was about to speak, Pang Xi remembered Qu Tian's words last night, and hated these speculative people even more, pulled out his sword and said angrily: "The battle order of this general has been issued, and those who disturb the hearts of our army will be killed." ”

The civil servants could no longer utter a word.

The weather was gloomy, the sun was shining through the clouds, there was no temperature at all, and the earth was cool.

On the field, the two armies faced each other, and there was silence, with only the occasional snort of war horses. Pang Xi stepped out of the horse and shouted at Liu Zhang: "Lord Zhou Mu, I, Pang Xi, am loyal to the Liu family, when I was the first lord, I protected several sons to enter Shu, and then participated in the pacification of Ma Xiang and Jia Long's rebellion, and helped the Lord to ascend to the throne of Yizhou, and guarded Brazil for several years. ”

Liu Zhang sat firmly on the horse's head, looked at the Pang Xi army opposite with cold eyes, and said to the good man next to him: "Good general, I don't want to talk nonsense with the surname Pang, you say." ”

"Yes." He agreed so much, and came out with a sledgehammer, letting out an earth-shattering roar: "Wuna traitor, my family doesn't want to talk nonsense with you, if you are loyal, get off the horse and see you immediately." ”

It was so powerful that the Brazilian army's heart jumped suddenly, Pang Xi also felt a pain in his eardrums, snorted coldly, and shouted: "Lord Zhou Mu, everyone in the world is watching, it's not that I Pang Xi wants to rebel, but I have to rebel, you Jiangzhou slaughtered scholars, and the four imperial examinees acted perversely, and I will admonish each other with force today." ”

Pang Xi pulled out his sword and raised his head to the sky: "Set things right, kill." ”

"Kill."

The Brazilian army swarmed out, Fa Zheng watched the Brazilian army rush, and said to Liu Zhang: "Lord, from my point of view, there are many Brazilian troops, but the two wings are weak, we can divide the army into three ways, all the way to the center, two ways to attack its flanks, it will be broken." ”

Liu Zhang shook his head and said to Zhang Ren in a deep voice: "Divide two thousand soldiers to protect the two wings, and the rest of the army will enter the Chinese army in Brazil, the target, Pang Xi." ”

"Yes."

Zhang Renlang agreed, raised his spear, and shouted at the whole army: "Brothers, have you seen Pang Xi's Daxu?" Whoever cuts down Pang Xi's Daxu will be rewarded with 100 gold, and the official will be promoted to the third level, and the person who kills Pang Xi will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and the marquis will be worshiped and killed. ”

"Kill."

The shouting of the mountain and the tsunami, the sound shook the sky, the two armies collided together, people turned their horses on their backs, the sky and the earth changed color, Pang Xi's target was Liu Zhang, Liu Zhang's goal was Pang Xi, the two Chinese armies were the elite of Shu, not afraid of death, Zhang Ren took the lead in rushing into the enemy formation, the tip of the gun was over, and there was a bloody light.

Pang Xi was surrounded by his own soldiers, watching the battle situation nervously, his hand tightly clenched the hilt of the sword, and Qu Tian on the side said with relief: "Lord, Liu Zhang is beyond his strength, and he rushes at our army with thousands of troops, and he kills himself. ”

"But." Pang Xi looked at the fierce battle formation in the field, and frowned: "But our army has not been able to move forward." ”

Qu Tian said with a smile: "That's just temporary, the two armies are staggered, they consume each other, our army is more numerous than the enemy, and in the end our army will win, not to mention, we don't have to wait until that time, lord, you see, although the two armies are deadlocked, our two wings are greatly advantageous, and we will soon be able to break through the enemy army and rush into Liu Zhang's Chinese army camp." ”

Pang Xi took a look, it was indeed as Qu Tian said, Pang Xi had nearly 20,000 troops on both wings, and the other party was only a thousand, although it was an elite, but it was only a grasshopper shaking a tree, and then looking at Liu Zhang's own formation, there were only a few hundred cavalry and less than a thousand guards, once surrounded, there was no life, and he couldn't help but nodded.

The two armies fought for nearly an hour, Zhang Ren's two wings faced the onslaught of tens of thousands of troops, and gradually could not support it, and there were signs of collapse, Fa Zheng looked a little anxious, and said to Liu Zhang: "Lord, our escort forces are weak, or retreat to the mountains first, otherwise the enemy will be killed, and the lord will be in danger." ”

Liu Zhang pressed the hilt of his sword tightly, and said while observing the battle: "The fierce battle is in full swing, if I move, the army's morale will be in chaos, and I must not retreat." ”

"But ......"

Liu Zhang raised his hand to stop Fa Zheng from speaking, and asked the flag soldier on the side: "Are your hands sore?" ”

"Not sour."

"It's good if it's not sour." Liu Zhang said in a deep voice: "I want you to hold this handsome flag high for two hours, there are only two situations where this flag can fall, one is that you die, and the other is that I die, understand?" ”

The soldier straightened his chest and raised his head, and said loudly, "Understood." ”

Liu Zhang nodded, and said to Fa Zheng on the side: "Now let's test the ability of the thousand elite soldiers that Zhang Ren selected for me." ”;
