Chapter 139: Ma Dai plans to retreat from Song Jian

As Ma Chao led his troops into the city, he quickly asked Ding Zhen to take him to Xicheng Tower.

At this time, because the problem of insufficient troops under Ma Dai's command became more and more prominent, the soldiers of the Song Jianbu were gradually encroaching on the control of the city tower.

Ma Dai was very anxious when he saw this, because he had no backhand, and he now pinned all his hopes on the army coming from the north gate.

Seeing that Song Jianbu's soldiers were about to completely seize control of the city gate, Ma Chao finally led his troops to kill.

When Ma Chao saw that Song Jianbu was pressing on Ma Dai's subordinates step by step, he shouted loudly and brandished the tiger's head Zhan golden gun and killed the city tower.

Seeing Ma Chao ascending the city, the two thousand knights under his command also immediately dismounted and climbed the city tower on foot.

Besides, after Ma Chao landed in the city, he brandished the tiger's head Zhan golden gun and screamed and killed.

In the face of Ma Chao, who was blocking and killing people and killing Buddhas, Song Jian's people, who had already established their advantages, were once again timid, after all, the tiger head Zhan golden gun in Ma Chao's hand was next to both injuries and death.

When Ma Dai saw Ma Chao coming to help, he immediately cheered up and began to command the soldiers to go all out to force Song Jianbu, who had climbed the city tower.

With Ma Chao's strong point, Ma Dai began to lay out a counterattack around Ma Chao.

After the soldiers of Song Jianbu went through the ghost-like fight of Ma Chao, these soldiers finally lost their courage and began to retreat.

Seeing this situation, Ma Dai also commanded the soldiers to counterattack comprehensively.

In the end, Song Jianbu's soldiers were repulsed again.

When Song Jian, who was fighting outside the city, found that the men and horses of his headquarters had retreated, he hurriedly sent a team to stop the rout of the defeated army, because he had 7,000 troops to join, and it would be a loss of face to flee back like this.

After stopping the rout of the defeated army, Song Jian personally beat drums and cheered to increase the morale of the soldiers.

When the defeated soldiers saw that their lord himself beat the drums, the morale of the soldiers rose again.

Immediately, the soldiers of Song Jianbu began to sacrifice their lives to fight in the city.

When Ma Dai found out that the soldiers of Song Jianbu had plucked up the courage to climb the city tower again, he was immediately surprised and said: "I didn't expect that this soldier under Song Jian's command still has the courage to fight." ”

After Ma Chao, who was fighting on the side, heard Ma Dai's exclamation, he immediately shouted: "Cousin, don't talk nonsense, how can we retreat from the enemy next?" ”

Seeing that Ma Chao still had the strength to talk to him while fighting, Ma Dai also quickly sorted out his mood and then replied loudly: "Meng Qi, you let the soldiers listen to my command, it is not good for us to continue to fight in such a chaotic battle, after all, we are not superior in numbers." ”

"No problem!"

As Ma Chao's subordinates obeyed Ma Dai's command, Song Jian's offensive gradually calmed down.

After a whole day of fighting, when Song Jian found that Di Dao was actually guarded again, his whole body was about to explode, after all, he had already been exhausted, if he couldn't even conquer Di Dao who was seriously lacking in garrison strength, Song Jian himself felt ashamed.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Song Jian reluctantly ordered Mingjin.

Seeing Song Jianbu retreat from the city tower like a tide, Ma Dai suddenly leaned on the spear and gasped, because it took him a lot of energy to defend Di Dao for many days, which was overloaded for him who was not too old.

When Ma Chao saw Ma Dai's situation, the lively Ma Chao immediately rushed to Ma Dai's side and cared: "Cousin, are you okay?" ”

"Meng Qi, I'm fine, the main thing is that it took too much energy to defend the city continuously, fortunately you rushed back, otherwise Di Dao would have fallen into the hands of Song Jian today."

"Don't talk about it, I'll help you go to rest first!"

After Ma Dai agreed to come down, Ma Chao immediately helped Ma Dai to the room on the upper floor of the city to rest.

At this time, Ma Dai said to Ma Chao: "Meng Qi, how many soldiers and horses did you bring back this time?" ”

"My father asked me to bring 2,000 fine horsemen, and today they are all on the city tower."

"What? Two thousand! ”

"Cousin, are you too much?"

"Many? How could it be, I think it's a little too little, Song Jian's failure to break the city today is purely because Meng Qi's sudden appearance disrupted Song Jian's offensive steps, once Song Jian reacts, I'm afraid that this Di Dao will still not be able to hold on. ”

"Cousin, how can you destroy your own prestige and grow the ambition of others, with my Ma Mengqi here, Song Jian will definitely not be able to break the city."

"Meng Qi, although you are full of confidence, I have to pour cold water on you, Song Jian's army outside the city is at least more than 10,000 people, and the defenders in my city are now less than 3,000 when they are full, 3,000 against 10,000, no matter how you look at it, it is not good for us."

"Cousin, what should we do in your opinion?"

"Meng Qi, if we want to keep Di Dao, we can't be so passive, only by regaining the initiative in our hands can we have hope of keeping Di Dao."

"Cousin, don't go around the bush with me, just tell me what you need to do."

"Meng Qi, the defenders in the city plus your troops are less than 3,000, continue to defend for a few days at most, I intend to attack the camp tonight to turn the tide of the battle."

"Raid on the camp? I like, how to do it. ”

"Meng Qi, tonight, we will divide the army into two parts, one part will be taken away by you to attack the camp, and the other part will be led by me, I want to make Song Jian think that my uncle has returned with his troops, as long as this goal is achieved, Song Jian will definitely be timid and take the initiative to withdraw the army."

"Okay, cousin, just do as you say."

Seeing that Ma Chao approved his plan, Ma Dai immediately began to prepare with Ma Chao.

After nightfall, Ma Chao led a cavalry of 1,500 men and prepared to go.

At the same time, Ma Dai used the remaining 1,000 soldiers to prepare a large number of torches.

When he arrived, Ma Chao immediately went out from the west gate to kill Song Jian's camp.

At this time, Song Jian neglected the precautions of the battalion because of the reinforcements of 7,000 soldiers.

When Ma Chao led his troops to quietly approach Song Jian's camp, he saw that Song Jian's camp was full of dozing soldiers.

After seeing this situation, Ma Chao suddenly thought to himself: "My cousin's wisdom is really good, he actually guessed that Song Jian's camp was negligent in taking precautions. ’

Thinking of this, Ma Chao couldn't wait to lead his troops into the camp.

The soldiers of Song Jianbu, who were negligent in taking precautions, suddenly panicked, because these soldiers never expected that someone would come to steal the camp.

Taking advantage of the unstable foothold of Song Jianbu's soldiers, Ma Chao led his troops to start a long drive.

When Song Jian received the news of the enemy's attack on the camp, he immediately commanded the soldiers to begin to encircle and suppress Ma Chao, who had entered the camp.

After Ma Chao led his troops to rush and kill for a while, his stamina was also a little weak, after all, the battalion of 1,500 elite cavalry to kill tens of thousands of people was still a little difficult.

Seeing that he was about to fall into encirclement, Ma Chao suddenly remembered Ma Dai's instructions.

Immediately after, Ma Chao raised his gun and shouted: "Xiliangjin Ma Chao is here, if you don't want to die, come up to me, my father's army will be killed immediately!" ”

Suddenly hearing Ma Chao's shout, the soldiers of Song Jianbu in the camp suddenly hesitated, and even Song Jian was a little stunned, after all, Ma Chao's name was like thunder.

At this time, countless torches were lit outside the camp at the right time.

Seeing this scene, Song Jian was shocked: "It's not good, Ma Teng is back, all the soldiers listen to the order and withdraw with me!" ”

As soon as the withdrawal order was given, the soldiers of Song Jianbu abandoned the camp and fled.

Seeing this, Ma Chao only pursued a little and stopped, after all, there was no real army behind him.
