Jiang Wei walked around his camp, and looked around at the encampment; it was late so everything was pretty dark, the only light coming from the fires which were lit around the camp. As he moved from tent to tent he would listen to the men who wearing sitting around, most of which were older then he was. He was amazed at the incredible diversity amount his men. Some men would be talking about family life, and how great a member of there family was. Others would be talking about plans to make it big after the war, to get land, to start a business. Everyone was talking as if they where filled with hope and trying to avoid thinking of the negative possibilities of the next day. To Jiang Wei, this was a learning experience that he knew he had to make sure not to forget. It made him more determined to win, and bring about a land where the people would be able to life lives of great hope.
Jiang Wei walked to his own tent after awhile, when he got back to his tent, he found Pang De, and Ma Dai sitting in it, looking as thought they were waiting on him.
"Gentlemen, it is good to know that you make it here," Wei said to the two commanders.
"Well thanks nothing of it, now that Lord Ma serves Lord Qian we do as well, so what is the plan for tomorrow, my scouts tell me Lu Xun is planning at open attack on the north plans, I have a feeling that it is going to be a fire attack," Pang De said with confidence.
"Well this is going to be a unique plan, first we are match out and face up with Lu Xun," Jiang Wei said before being intrupted.
"But sir, Xun's forces outnumber ours 2 to1 are you sure that is such a good idea," Dai asked with concern in his tone.
"Yes, this will work it is our best hope, well know we are going to let Xun hit us in the middle, and we will fall back in the middle, but at the same time we will in encircle his forces by flanking him with our elite troops, this will put his army right in the middle of our army, and we will then crush in on his army," Wei said with confidence, "Pang De, you will lead a unit from the left flank, and Zhang Fei is leading a unit from the right flank, Ma Dai you are to help me hold the center."
"Fine, I have to say this is quite the interesting plan, I just hope it does not backfire on us," Pang De said before leaving with Ma Dai.
"I know it will work it must work," Wei said to himself as they left.
The next day, the sun was up in a perfectly blue sky, there was not single cloud in the sky, and it was for once not really hot or cold, it seemed that it was going to be a heck of a day to fight a battle, and it was fitting for a battle as big as this one. Wei then marched his men north to a massive grass plain. On the plain the grassy swayed from side to side, and soon he knew from the loud sounds coming closer, that Xun and his army were getting near.
"Men, this is the battle of our lives, I wish I could protect you all, but if we are to fight, let us know that we are going to fight with honor on our side," Wei yelled out, signaling Fei, and De to get into position.
Not to long after the small speech, a line of men in red come towards marching them stepping loudly as the walked. Wei held his trident up in preparation for the coming attack. When the army of red got to within 100 yards they broke formation and ran, this did surprise Wei a bit. Wei held his men into place ordering them to raise their spears up and hit the incoming army head on, Jiang Wei quickly made work of the first person to come to him, turning to help those around him fight off foes, he in constant motion swing his spear around parrying attacks and attacking in on people. As was figure his men where pushed back, at this point a single arrow was fired off, and De, and Fei encircled the enemy. Wei was able to tell because the moment they did the enemy started to panic, being crushed from behind. Wei then saw Lu Xun trying to rally his men forward. When Xun saw Wei, he charged at him thrusting his two swords at Wei. The attack was simple, it seemed Xun underestimated him, and he was not going to live to see past that mistake, Wei dodge the strike and brought his trident down on Xun killing him on the spot. With in seconds the demoralized army gave up, and the battle was over.
After the battle Wei sent of a messenger to Sun Qian, telling him the result. They had won the battle, and killed Xun, it also seemed Lu Meng was also killed along the way, and they only lost 3,000 men to Wu's 35,000/
