Chapter 231: Sima Yi vs Ma Jian (11/12 for the Night)
The rebellion of the Eastern Wu ministers did not come without warning.
The previous crushing defeat suffered by the Wu army was a devastating blow.
Although the loss of personnel was not as heavy as the battle of Yiling in Ji Han in history, this was Sun Quan's third major loss after the fiasco in Hefei and the tragic defeat of Weixu, and the blow to his prestige can be imagined.
Sun Quan's secession status is not legitimate, and this successive defeats are not the return of the destiny.
In the face of a series of failures, Soochow naturally had to find someone to take the blame.
Sun Quan and Bu Qi had already sent this black cauldron to Lu Xun in their hearts,
But there is no way, the loss of Lu Xun's troops in this battle is not large, and because the losses of the Jiangbei faction are too strong, the discourse power of the various ethnic groups in Jiangdong has been greatly improved in comparison.
In this case, many Jiangdong clans have targeted Han Dang and Zhou Tai, who have been killed in battle.
They think that the reason why the battle of Youjiangkou was fought like this is that Han Dang cannot escape the blame-
He was initially unguarded, and Ding Feng, a nobody, almost burned down Baqiu's stockpile.
If it weren't for him, with so much grain in stock, Wu Jun would have consumed Liu Chan to death.
Later, Han Dang's performance in the assault operation was also lackluster,
Although the attack on Nancheng was mainly because Zhou Tai was stupid, Zhou Tai's father and son were hanging, and chasing his wife to spray had no effect.
But Han Dang's son hadn't hung up yet, and Sun Quan actually asked him to keep the trilogy and continue to recruit troops.
This made those Jiangdong clans very unhappy.
They thought that Han Zong must hand over all his troops, and then honestly be a big soldier in the army, or be an idle man in the court.
Fighting a war is such a technical thing, and it is better to leave it to the clan in Jiangdong to do it.
In Jiangdong, where the trilogy is equal to life, handing over one's own trilogy is not to be slaughtered by others.
Han Zong is not stupid, he has always shown an active main battle, to regain the lost territory, and at the same time slowly contact Cao Wei to plan a defection.
This time he heard that Luo Tong was going west to Wuchang, and Han Zong, who was a thief, immediately thought that his conspiracy had been discovered.
Frightened, he hurriedly rewarded the soldiers, took the coffins of his mother and father, and hurried to Jiangbei to join Cao Cao.
As for why Zhai Dan and Jin Zong's two comics also ran away.
Oh, that's a coincidence, isn't it?
Luo Tong never expected this kind of thing to happen,
Hengzhu is now the first stop in the west is Anhuikou, and he has come here, and it would be too much not to sanction Zhai Dan, a traitor.
Luo Tong and Zhu Huan discussed it, and chose to accept Ma Yan's proposal, and first went to Anhui County to make peace with the guard.
Then, hurry up and go north and catch the traitor Zhai Dan!
Zhai Dan is not well-known in Soochow.
Not to mention him, the guard of Anhui County is not famous.
He thought that he was just casually defecting and throwing himself into Cao Wei's warm embrace.
Even if the surrounding Wu Jun received the news, it was too late, and the most he came to chase after him was Shende himself.
But he never expected that as soon as he walked on his front foot, Luo Tong, the governor of the beard, actually personally commanded the army to kill him.
The elite main force of more than 10,000 Wu troops landed quickly and murderously, and chased after them without saying a word!
"Kill Zhai Dan, there will be a reward!"
was beaten by Liu Chan before, and the whole army of Wu Jun held their breath.
If you can't beat Liu Chan or Cao Wei, if you let Zhai Dan run away like this, it is estimated that the younger brothers of the Sun Quan family will all vote one by one in the future.
Luo Tong used his strength to eat milk this time, and he ordered his subordinates to move forward lightly, saying that he would also arrest Zhai Dan back to correct the law.
Zhai Dan, who was going to rest in the stone pavilion for a while, heard that the governor of the beard had come to sanction him in person, and his legs were so frightened that he was weak.
He hurriedly rode back to his horse and ordered his subordinates to throw away everything that should be thrown, and it was important to run first!
"Chase, chase me!"
Luo Tong and Zhu Huan are both from Jiangdong, and their interests in the general direction are absolutely the same.
The two cooperated closely, and there was no touching battle situation in the previous battle of Youjiangkou, and the combat effectiveness of the Wu army increased visibly with the naked eye.
After the poor Ma Tan came ashore, he was assigned a very energetic horse, and he was running so hard all the way that Ma Jian was about to foam at the mouth.
Although he didn't find any magical development for the time being, helping Wu Jun hunt down traitors,
But he believed that there would be an omen in the darkness,
What results can be achieved by his own mission to Soochow this time, it depends on this wave!
After Ma Jian vomited for the third time, he wiped his mouth with the sleeve of his robe painfully, and saw that the Wu soldiers in front of him began to stop slowly, and said in surprise:
"Caught up?"
His voice was hoarse, sounding like a broken gong, and the Wu soldiers next to him didn't understand what was going on, so they scratched their heads and said:
"Could it be that you caught Zhai Dan?"
"Possibly." Ma Tan coughed while hitting the horse forward, and saw that Luo Tong and Zhu Huan both had solemn faces, and said strangely:
"What's going on?"
Zhai Dan...... Stopped! ”
"It's a good thing," Ma Tan blurted out.
But he soon punched himself in the mouth.
"No, how dare he stop?"
Zhai Dan's deserters numbered only a few hundred.
All the way is as anxious as a lost dog, panic like a fish that has slipped through the net, and he doesn't dare to stay in the stone pavilion,
Now he ran all the way to the trailer, and he actually stopped, which means that the front ......
Soon, Wu Jun realized what was happening.
Zhai Dan's hundreds of people didn't know where they got the courage, and suddenly turned around and lined up,
Behind them, a group of tall soldiers appeared in black armor and wearing narrow sleeves and straight sleeves.
Luo Tong's eyes were dark, and he almost thought that he had been ambushed by Liu Chan.
But he soon reacted.
No, it's not the son, it's ...... Wei Jun! (Before Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty, he still wore the uniform of the Han army)
No, how can there be a Wei army here?!
The trailer was thousands of miles away from Lu'an, the stronghold of the Wei army, and it stands to reason that a small Wei army could not appear here.
Seeing the Wei army here, or the Wei army that dares to take the initiative to attack its own side, this shows that it shows ......
"It's not good, it turns out that the thief has long colluded with the Cao thief!
This is to pick up Zhai Dan's escape. ”
Luo Tong, this is wronged Cao Xiu.
He just moved forward step by step, and the pioneer Sima Yi opened the way, but he didn't expect to catch up with Zhai Dan's defection and escape.
Hearing that Zhai Dan had defected, Sima Yi was overjoyed, and said in his heart that this battle was really smooth.
It's all here, and I'll help Zhai Dan solve the problem of how big the chasing army behind him can be.
Sima Yi, who led the army and rushed to the front, said in his heart that this chasing army was at most the poor defenders of Xiande in Anhui County.
He immediately commanded his troops to attack,
The order to attack had just been given, and he was surprised to find ......
Wu Jun didn't flash?
Haha, hahaha, hahaha!
Ma Tan almost burst out laughing.
It turns out that it was so!
It turns out that Wei Jun is hiding here!
My horse is shining, and the opportunity to dominate the battlefield has finally come!
Seeing that Luo Tong and Zhu Huan were so shocked that they couldn't speak, Ma Yan, who was a master of art, hurriedly said loudly:
"Gongxu, quickly, order your subordinates to form a formation to resist!
There are few soldiers in the front of the thief army, and I don't know what we are doing.
Our army waved its flag and shouted, made more doubts, and attacked the heart, and the enemy army was bound to collapse! ”
When they met on a narrow road, they relied on a lot of courage.
The Wu army was already weak when it encountered the army without the protection of water, and it almost dispersed in a hurry just now.
Ma Yan's words woke up Luo Tong,
He picked up a short spear and strode forward, dressed in a curved deep coat to hunt and hunt, quite generous and tragic.
"Sons, Cao's army has invaded our country, and now is the time to defend the country.
I, Luo Tong, am here, swearing not to retreat, and I hope that you will kill the thief side by side with me, and make another meritorious achievement! ”
After all, it's the defenders of the Wet Whisker Dock.
They have fought fiercely with Cao Wei for many years and have rich combat experience, which can not be compared to the bear soldiers led by Zhuge Jin before who were mostly Shanyue.
Seeing Luo Tong standing in front of the formation with a short spear in his hand, the Wu army also rarely entered a state of great morale, and set up a formation to meet the onslaught of Sima Yi's army.
Sima Yi has already noticed that something is wrong on the other side,
But the troops had already begun to charge, and the order to retreat was really difficult to give, so he could only strike desperately.
Although the Wu army that had just landed was a little panicked in the face of the Wei army,
But they immediately discovered that the number of this Wei army was extremely small.
Well, that's right, how many people can come to pick up Zhai Dan?
Zhu Huan calmly commanded his private army to unfold slowly, like a lion who opened a great crime, and Sima Yi was difficult to parry.
Seeing that there were more and more Wu troops, Sima Yi finally understood that he had been subjected to hard stubble.
This is the defenders of Anhui County, this is definitely the main force of the Wu army,
Did I wait for the trick?
"Who is General Wu on the other side?"
Sima Yi grabbed Zhai Dan, who looked innocent, shook it vigorously, and asked angrily.
Zhai Dan was so frightened by Sima Yi's hideous face that he was almost speechless, and he said after a long time:
"Yes...... It is the Governor of the Wet. ”
Sima Yi: ......
