Chapter 213: General Purple Lips
Leading this remnant army, Ma Kongming hurried to Wuyuan City, he was afraid that he would be too late and the city would be broken by the enemy.
However, when it was more than eighty miles away from Wuyuan City, there was a sentry horse in front of it, and the enemy army divided its troops into two ways, one blocking the official road leading to Wuyuan City, and the other way to Wuyuan City.
"How many people are blocking the road?" Ma Kongming asked.
"General, there are about 2,000 people."
Ma Kongming looked at Wei Chidan: "Brother Wei Chi, what should you do?" ”
After many days of getting along, Ma Kongming became more and more confident in Wei Chidan's judgment.
Similarly, Wei Chidan also had a certain understanding of Ma Kongming, knowing that he would never sit idly by and watch Wuyuan City be defeated, and would definitely fight with the enemy army blocking the road.
If he is the commander-in-chief, he would prefer to determine whether the enemy army has really divided his troops, and then look for fighters to fight, but Ma Kongming cannot have such patience.
He thought for a long time and said slowly: "Our army has less than 1,200 people, and it is a tired army, if you want to defeat the other party, you can only raid, and the best time is night." ”
"Okay, then choose tonight, attack the enemy's camp tent at night!" Ma Kongming said loudly.
After that, the troops found a good place to camp, and repaired it, and by night, the whole army approached the enemy.
Outside the camp of the column, there were very few soldiers patrolling the camp, which was a good opportunity for a surprise attack.
Ma Kongming was just about to give the order to attack, but Wei Chidan hurriedly grabbed him and said in a low voice: "General, the enemy also has sentry horses, you should know that our army is nearby, it is impossible to be so lax at night, I thought there must be an ambush!" ”
Hearing the ambush, Ma Kongming was shocked, although he was bold, but after that tragic ambush, he didn't dare to be too reckless, his eyes were dead on the enemy's tent and looked at it a few times, and waved his hand: "Withdraw the army!" ”
When the team was a little far away from the enemy's camp, Wei Chidan suddenly spoke again: "General, we might as well sit in a cluster for an hour!" ”
"What do you mean?" Ma Kongming stared at him closely.
Wei Chidan smiled slightly: "The general will know later!" ”
Hu Dahai muttered: "I will pretend to be a ghost." The voice is very low, and he is far less powerful in the team now than Captain Chi Dan, and he can only complain a few words behind his back.
An hour later.
Wei Chidan stood up, looked at the bright moon in the night sky, and said with a smile: "It's time, general, let's go to the raid now!" ”
Ma Kongming didn't ask much, waved his hand and said, "March!" ”
When he arrived at the camp of the other side, he saw that there were many more soldiers patrolling the camp on the other side, Hu Dahai snorted in a low voice: "I didn't fight when I wasn't on guard just now, I have to wait until I was on guard, I really can't think about it, old Hu." ”
"You pig brain doesn't have to think about anything, just listen to orders." Qi Zhen said lightly: "Brother Ma and I just need to understand the mystery." ”
"Brother Wei Chi, can you attack?" Ma Kongming was a little impatient.
"That's it!" Wei Chidan said with a smile.
Ma Kongming didn't hesitate any longer, turned over on his horse, and shouted: "Brothers, rush! ”
The team soon stormed the enemy camp and fought with the patrol soldiers.
At this moment, a large group of men and horses suddenly rushed out of the enemy's camp tent, and at the same time, the sound of rushing and killing was heard from the rear.
Ma Kongming was shocked and looked at Wei Chidan: "What's going on?" ”
Wei Chidan's face was as pale as paper, he stood for a long time, and said with a wry smile:
"We were tricked, they knew we were coming back for a night attack, and they deliberately put on a slack defense to lure us into attacking. Later, they put on the appearance of strengthening the defense, which made us think that they had given up the ambush, which was also a plan to lure the enemy. ”
At this moment, a purple-lipped general in the enemy army rode out of the team and said with a smile: "I thought you would attack the first time, but I didn't expect to be able to detect the trap, I want to praise you two, but unfortunately, you still fell for it." ”
Ma Kongming glared at the general angrily and roared angrily: "Fight with them." His body was like an arrow off the string, rushing towards Xie Yuchen.
Xie Yuchen waved his hand slightly, and several huge arrows suddenly shot out behind him, the speed was extremely fast, Ma Kongming's body rotated in the air, dodged the arrows, and rushed towards Xie Yuchen again.
Xie Yuchen frowned, behind him, a rain of arrows shot out one after another, there were crossbow arrows shot by giant crossbows, and there were ordinary bows and arrows, but none of them could hit Ma Kongming.
Seeing Ma Kongming dodging the bow and arrows while approaching him, General Xie's eyes froze, he really couldn't imagine that there was such a character in the world who could dodge such a dense bow and arrow.
He slowly rode his horse behind him, and gradually disappeared into the crowd, and Ma Kongming looked out and could no longer find his figure.
The whole unit was like a dumpling, and the soldiers fell one by one under the attack of the enemy, Ma Kongming's eyes were red, as if he was about to breathe fire, but he was helpless.
Wei Chidan's heart was full of self-blame, and he was tormented, so he could only fight hard and vent his anger.
Suddenly, an arrow whistled through his shoulder, and an enemy at his side slashed at his leg, and when he saw the next knife in his neck, he swung his spear in his hand with all his might, trying to block it, but it was too late.
At this moment, one person grabbed him by the collar and retreated, saving his life, Wei Chidan turned his eyes and saw that the person who saved him was Ma Kongming.
At this moment, even he was injured, and two arrows were lost in his body, and Wei Chidan said sadly: "General, I'm sorry, it's all my fault for being thoughtless!" ”
Ma Kongming shook his head: "No, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't be alive now, it seems that everyone is going to die here today." ”
"Brother Ma, you can take us to break through!" Hu Dahai said eagerly, and he also had a few more wounds on his body.
"Brother Hu, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't do it." Ma Kongming smiled bitterly.
He has killed countless people in his life, and he has long thought that there is nothing wrong with dying with his brothers, but it is a pity that he will let the sixth sister be widowed and disappoint Lord Lu.
On the periphery of the encirclement, General Xie was looking at the moonlight and was silent, and Vice General Wang beside him looked at the rebels who were still struggling to resist, and said in surprise: "I really didn't expect them to last so long." ”
Another general sneered: "There are less than five hundred people, and I can't hold out for long." ”
At this moment, a cavalryman galloped in the distance, he was covered in blood, as if after a vicious fight, General Xie frowned, only to see the cavalry turn over and dismount, arched his hand and said: "General, the troops attacking Wuyuan City in front are trapped in the city by the rebels, please go to the rescue quickly." ”
"Bastard, the other party only has 500 city defense soldiers, why are you trapped in the city, what are you kidding?" Vice Admiral Wang was furious.
Before the cavalryman could explain, he heard General Xie ask, "Does the enemy have reinforcements?" ”
He nodded again and again: "Yes, the enemy army is by no means more than the city defenders!" ”
Xie Yuchen's eyes were cold, and he said coldly: "What's going on, tell me in detail." ”
"Yes." The cavalry nodded, and said with palpitations: "Our army-"
As soon as he spoke, he was interrupted by General Xie: "On the way, give the order, immediately march the whole army to Wuyuan City!" ”
"General, this rebel army has not been completely wiped out!" Vice Admiral Wang was surprised.
"Leave them alone, these people can't pose a threat to us anymore." General Xie said lightly.
With his order, the team began to withdraw from the battle in an orderly manner, and after forming a formation, they headed towards Wuyuan City.
Seeing the enemy retreating, Ma Kongming thrust the big knife into the ground, he had countless wounds all over his body, if he were an ordinary person, he would have died a long time ago.
He habitually looked at Wei Chidan and asked, "Brother Wei Chi, what's wrong with them?" ”
Wei Chidan took a few breaths, "Judging from the direction they are going, it should be what happened to their troops attacking Wuyuan City, so ...... So hurried over. ”
"What? Are those city guards so powerful? Hu Dahai shouted, his cry revealing the joy of the rest of his life.
Wei Chidan said angrily: "Of course it's not the reason for the city defenses, it must be that there are reinforcements in Wuyuan." ”
Hearing the word reinforcements, everyone was a little excited, and Qi Zhen asked, "I don't know where the reinforcements came from." ”
Hu Dahai said with a smile: "It must be the reinforcements from the Kaihua side, they are the closest." ”
Wei Chidan didn't say anything, although he proposed to send someone to Kaihua for help, but he felt that Kaihua had a great chance of sending reinforcements over, because they also had to face 5,000 Anhua troops.
At this time, he saw Ma Kongming frowning and asked, "General, what's wrong?" ”
Ma Kongming said in a deep voice: "We can't rest yet, we have to rush to Wuyuan City as soon as possible, maybe we can help anything." ”
Hu Dahai hissed: "Brother Ma, look at the brothers, everyone has reached the limit, and they don't have the strength to fight anymore!" ”
Ma Kongming glanced at his soldiers, hesitated in his heart, and at this moment, a horse rushed in the distance, judging from the military uniform, it was the Hui'an army.
Ma Kongming asked the cavalryman to come over, and the cavalryman arched his hand after he walked in, handed over a note and said, "This is what my general handed over to General Ma." ”
As soon as Ma Kongming took it, before he had time to ask, the cavalryman turned over and went straight to his horse.
Hu Dahai exclaimed: "Who is his general?" ”
Ma Kongming shook his head, spread out the note and looked at it, and was silent for a long time after reading it.
Qi Zhen stepped forward and asked, "General, what's wrong?" ”
