Chapter 295

Deng Xian shook his head and advised: "The trail up the mountain must be dangerous. If Liu Bei defends with heavy troops, there is no point for us to go out. Why don't we ask the county for help?"

"We've just been fighting for half a day, and the defenders are closed and there is no damage. What reason do you have to ask for help? General Deng just makes a big noise, and if the situation is wrong, he immediately retreats to the pass. If the uphill path is heavily guarded, I will not fight recklessly. In short, You can't sit still." Ling Bao's eyes were firm.

"Well then, I'd better send people to the county seat to inform them of the situation here. I'll try my best to make the camp robbery louder at night, so that General Ling will be safer." Deng Xian analyzed.

Ling Bao raised her fist and touched Deng Xian, "I wish us good luck."

"Heaven will take care of us." Deng Xian nodded.

The two made up their minds and each chose a good player to prepare for the night battle.

At three o'clock in Xu time, Deng Xian led [-] elite troops out of Mianzhu Pass and slowly marched from the main road to Liu Bei's camp, while Ling Bao led [-] elite troops to walk close to the foot of the mountain on the left.

I don't know why Liu Bei retreated five miles to the village after the battle in the morning, which happened to leave enough room for Deng Xian's soldiers and horses to operate.

In order not to expose the target in advance, Deng Xian ordered people to be pulled forward and backward by ropes, and slowly advanced in the dark night, and did not light the torches until half a mile away from the camp, and made the soldiers shout loudly, startling countless birds in the valley for a while .

A group of men and horses rushed out of Liu Bei's army camp upon hearing the sound, and the leader with a red face and long beard was General Wei Yan, who looked extremely tall against the firelight with a big knife in his hand.

"Don't dare to go out to fight during the day, but come at night to be a mouse to eat, Liu Zhang's people are so timid?" Wei Yan snorted coldly holding a knife.

"Kill me." Deng Xian yelled and let the former army charge forward. Although he had never fought against Wei Yan, he knew that he was not easy to mess with from his appearance.

"Coolless waste." Wei Yan took the lead.

The galloping horse galloped and the flames illuminated the cold light of the broadsword, and he slashed from left to right as if he had entered nowhere.

The hundreds of soldiers Deng Xian sent were not enough to kill Wei Yan's soldiers. Seeing that the situation was not good, he led the army to retreat, but the direction of retreat seemed very strange.

Two thousand infantrymen went to lure Wei Yan to retreat to the southwest, while Deng Xian's three hundred cavalry broke away from the formation, ran around the right side of the camp and threw torches, so the cavalry came out of the camp to chase and intercept them.

Deng Xian made such a fuss, and Liu Bei's camp was full of hustle and bustle. Judging from the scale of the fire, it attracted a lot of attention.

Seeing that the goal of attacking east and west was achieved, Deng Xian led the 300 people to gallop on horseback. At this time, he couldn't care about Ling Bao. He had to rush back to Mianzhu Pass as soon as possible, after all, it was too dangerous outside the pass.

Wei Yan pursued calmly in the dark, and the [-] infantry originally used to restrain them quickly dispersed. After Deng Xian's cavalry arrived, they only gathered a few hundred people. The men and horses blocked the way back to the pass.

"Is it Deng Xian who is here?" the general asked in a deep voice in the dark night.

Seeing that the opponent's troops were not many, Deng Xian still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. At least he was much more calm than facing Wei Yan. He urged him to come forward and cursed: "Where is the rebellion? Knowing the name of the master? Don't retreat quickly, otherwise I want you to look good."

The man was startled when he heard that, and then he shouted angrily: "Bastard, who do you think I am?"

Two attendants were lighting him up with torches. Deng Xian took a closer look and found that it was his uncle Meng Da. He stammered, "Uncle."

"Bastard, why don't you dismount and surrender?" Meng Da frowned.

Deng Xian bit the bullet and refused: "My uncle betrayed my old master. How can my nephew be in the same boat."

"You" Meng Da was speechless.

Meng Da thought that there was going to be a big fight between his nephew and uncle, but Deng Xian led three hundred cavalry to flee in the opposite direction, leaving the infantry in place.

Deng Xian did this out of helplessness. His family members are all in Chengdu now, and he might implicate his wife and children if he surrendered to the enemy. The killing of Zhang Song's family is still vivid in his memory.

Facing the cavalry coming and going like the wind, Meng Da ignored Deng Xian. He wanted to surrender the thousand or so Shu soldiers in front of him. They had completely lost their fighting spirit under Wei Yan's chasing just now, and everyone's eyes were blank at this moment.

Deng Xian ran aimlessly, and met Wei Yan who was chasing him before he had gone far.

In the situation of losing ground, Deng Xian sighed that the heavens did not care, and he raised his spear to go straight to Wei Yan.

Seeing the other party rushing towards him, Wei Yan couldn't believe his eyes. This guy looks young, why doesn't he have a good brain?Making such an unwise choice between Mengda and himself.

Wei Yan slapped the horse's buttocks and went towards him. When the two of them approached, Deng Xian took advantage of the situation to stab.

In the dark night, Wei Yan's gaze was like a torch. He didn't wave the big knife in his hand for a long time, but nimbly fell forward obliquely, and took advantage of the situation to grab the handle of the opponent's gun.

Deng Xian's face turned pale with fright, and he fought back with both hands, but the handle of the gun seemed to grow in Wei Yan's palm.

"Hahaha, overestimate your own capabilities." Wei Yan laughed.

"You..." Deng Xian couldn't break free with all his strength.

Wei Yan suddenly increased his strength and dragged Deng Xian off the horse like a chicken.

Looking at the raised knife in Wei Yan's hand, Deng Xian's three souls and seven souls were frightened away.

"Wen Chang, save people under the sword." Meng Da shouted as he rode his horse and waved a torch.

Fortunately, the sound came just in time, Wei Yan's knife point had just stopped at Deng Xian's neck, but the plucking cold wind made him drenched in fright.

"Bastard, you still don't want to surrender? How can you save your wife and children without your neck and head?" Meng Da yelled sharply.

"I, I would like to surrender to General Zuo." Deng Xian avoided Wei Yan's blade backwards.

Wei Yan retracted the knife and stroked his long beard, "Fortunately, Zidu shouted in time, otherwise my knife would have drunk blood."

Meng Da clasped his fists in gratitude: "Thank you, Wen Chang, for keeping your hand. This is my unworthy nephew. Now let him take us to capture Mianzhuguan, so that he can do a good job."

Wei Yan nodded: "Shan, this is in line with the strategist's strategy, and there is no need to play the role of a defeated army who is fleeing."

"Are you willing to sacrifice?" Meng Da asked with a frown.

"Naturally. I surrender sincerely," Deng Xian replied with his head bowed.

The defenders of Mianzhu Pass saw the scuffle just now, they didn't dare to open the closed door at first, but everyone recognized Deng Xian.

Deng Xian walked to the front of the pass and easily opened the city gate, and Liu Bei won the last pass of entering Shu at a very small price.

After winning the pass, Wei Yan led troops to garrison, while Meng Da led Deng Xian to the camp to meet Liu Bei.

"You're quite courageous, kid. After losing so badly in Fucheng, you still dare to take the initiative to rob our camp." Meng Da sneered speechlessly on the road.

Deng Xianxiao said embarrassingly: "This is all General Ling's plan to attract General Zuo's attention so that he can sneak attack on the high ground west of Mianzhu Pass. Let's report it quickly to avoid any delay."

Meng Da laughed: "Mianzhu Pass has already been taken, and Ling Bao, the highland in the west, went to sneak attack at will, but all of this is under the control of the military advisers, and the highland was originally the bait."

Deng Xian sighed: "I also doubted it at first, but the highland poses too much threat to Mianzhu Pass, so I have to risk it to destroy it."

"This is the strategist's conspiracy. The conspiracy can be broken, but the conspiracy cannot be broken." Meng Da said proudly.
