Guan Yu lived up to expectations, decisively led the army forward, put on an extremely strong offensive posture, and broke the troops led by Ma Xiu in Nanda, Xiangwu County.

The young Ma Xiu was not the opponent of Guan Yu, who had experienced a hundred battles, but he did not face Guan Yu squarely, thinking that Guan Yu had killed his brother Ma Tie, and he was bent on avenging his brother, full of desire to fight, and he looked very murderous.

But Guan Yu will only be more ferocious than him.

As soon as they fought, Ma Xiu was overwhelmed by Guan Yu's momentum, and the army he led was not the opponent of the army led by Guan Yu at all.

Guan Yu's military formation was very sharp, and the offensive posture was full, and the battle was for the purpose of attacking at the beginning, supplemented by powerful long-range firepower strikes by the way.

Matthew's army lost more than half of its head-on collision with Guan Yu, and after the official collision, Guan Yu's head was broken and bleeding, and it was defeated after a while.

Guan Yu fled back to Xiangwu County with Ma Xiu's farts and urine, and then swept the surrounding area of Xiangwu County, wantonly destroying military facilities around Xiangwu County, and isolating Xiangwu County.

When Cao Ren arrived, Guan Yu was already preparing for a siege.

Ma Chao lost for a while, panicked in his heart, and was angry, feeling that he had lost his younger brother, it was really painful, so he held back his anxiety and once again did not listen to Ma Teng's order to defend the city, but took the initiative to attack and fight a field battle with Cao Ren and Guan Yu.

Ma Chao seems to have never accepted the lesson, obviously he has never won the battle, but he is willing to give up only when he wants to win the Wei army, as if he wants to prove his combat effectiveness and bravery.

On June 12 of the first year of Jian'an, Ma Chao and Cao Ren fought a fierce battle a few miles south of Xiangwu County.

Ma Chao still uses the housekeeping skills of the Liangzhou soldiers, the army formation and the Wei army are fighting each other, the Wei army is obviously more skilled, although Ma Chao is desperate to put all the elite soldiers around him into the fight against the Wei army, but still can't compete with the Wei army.

Under the command of Guan Yu, the main force of the Wei army pressed forward step by step to suppress the Liangzhou soldiers, and the attack posture far exceeded Ma Chao's expectations, and the military formation of the Liangzhou soldiers gradually became unstable.

In fact, at the beginning, the two armies were evenly matched, Ma Chao was indeed not weak, and his will to fight was also very strong, but the physical fitness of the Liangzhou soldiers could not last long, while the physical fitness of the Wei soldiers was significantly stronger than that of the Liangzhou soldiers.

The Wei sergeant roared and stabbed the spear in his hand, waved the ring head knife in his hand, and moved forward step by step, steadily and steadily, pushing the military formation of the Liangzhou soldiers all the way back.

The Liangzhou soldiers were unable to resist, retreating step by step, and the military formation gradually collapsed until it was irretrievable.

Pang De repeatedly persuaded Ma Chao not to lead troops to fight with the Wei army, Ma Chao did not listen, saying that he wanted to avenge his younger brother, but the result was naturally a fiasco, difficult to clean up, when the whole army retreated, it was still Pang De who desperately pulled Ma Chao to run back, and Ma Chao was able to get out of the battlefield.

After this battle, Ma Chao not only did not avenge his younger brother, but also took the life of his other younger brother Ma Xiu.

It was Guan Yu who did it.

Guan Yu caught Ma Xiu when he broke the Liangzhou military formation, galloped on the horse, chased after him, killed all Ma Xiu's personal soldiers, and then stabbed Ma Xiu under the horse with a spear, killing him, and Ma Chao lost another younger brother.

When Ma Chao fled back to Xiangwu County, when he saw Ma Teng, who had just arrived with his troops, he felt a sense of vicissitudes of life.

When Ma Teng learned that his two sons had fallen to the battlefield, his eyes rolled and he fainted.

Originally, the people brought by Ma Teng were here to help in the war, and if Ma Teng could win, they would have peace of mind, but as soon as they came to Xiangwu County, they learned that Ma Chao had been defeated for a while, and even his younger brother had died.

Not something they can fight against.

And this time Ma Teng also offended Wei Jun miserably, it seems that the honeymoon period between Ma Teng and Guo Peng will be announced to be over in less than half a year.

It's a little too fast.

So the warlords and warlords began to think about the gains and losses of continuing to fight with Ma Teng, but the Qiang people agreed with Ma Teng, and there were not many people who knew Chinese, so they still followed Ma Teng to fight.

However, the current situation is confusing, and I don't know what Cao Ren's situation is, Ma Teng has always said that he was slandered by Han Sui and wanted to plead, but the result of the defense has not been delayed, so that the warlords and warlords do not know how to stand in line, and they are very distressed.

Ma Teng realized that the problem that needed to be solved now was not when Guo Peng ordered Cao Ren to withdraw from the army, but that this battle was just around the corner, and his life had been seriously threatened.

The Wei army outside Xiangwu County was already in formation and ready to attack the city, and he could only resist until Guo Peng's order arrived, or Cao Ren himself realized the problem.

Unfortunately, Marten didn't know that these two options were not available in the first place.

Guo Peng just wanted Cao Ren to kill him.

"Cao Zixiao didn't listen to our defense at all, it is very likely that he was in a hurry to make military merits, so he didn't care about our innocence at all, at the moment, we have no other way to retreat, but to resist to the end and exhaust Cao Zixiao and Han Sui's grain and grass."

Ma Teng found Pang De and ordered the cautious Pang De to lead the troops to defend the city, and then he angrily reprimanded Ma Chao, locked Ma Chao in confinement, and said that he would settle the matter with him after the loss of the army.

Ma Teng was disappointed in Ma Chao and found that this son was useless except for rushing and punching.

Now that the other two sons are dead again, I really can't bear to have an accident with Ma Chao, so I let Pang De temporarily command the army, and let his nephew Ma Dai be Pang De's deputy and be responsible for defending the city.

So from mid-June to July, for almost half a month, Pang De and Ma Dai presided over the defense of the city, stopped the crusading army commanded by Guan Yu outside the city of Xiangwu County, and repelled Guan Yu's more than a dozen sieges, which was considered an achievement.

After that, Guan Yu stopped the siege and waited until the trebuchet arrived.

The trebuchet moved slowly, came relatively slowly, and after the trebuchet troops came, Guan Yu decisively took the trebuchet as the main force of the attack, and the huge stone projectile flew in the air, and then smashed on the city wall of Xiangwu County, causing a great shock to the Liangzhou coalition army.

Han Sui stood in the distance and watched the attack strength of the new counterweight trebuchet, and his heart trembled.

He found that the trebuchets used by the Wei army were different from those used in the Guanzhong battlefield, with a longer range, larger stones, and more accurate heads.

Evolved, this is the evolved version.

Fortunately, he was not an enemy of the Wei army......

Han Sui comforted himself like this.

But Pang De and Ma Dai could not comfort the defenders of the city, and they collapsed under the fierce bombardment of the Wei army, and abandoned the city wall to flee for their lives.

Guan Yu saw the right time and gave an order, the whole army attacked, the Wei army pushed the well and the ladder rushed to the city wall, jumped onto the city wall and fought fiercely with the defenders of the city, the sword saw blood, the sword light and sword shadow on the city wall splashed blood, and countless people lost their lives every minute and every second.

More and more Wei troops poured onto the city wall, the Liangzhou soldiers continued to retreat, Pang De and Ma Dai desperately led the troops to fight, trying to stop the Wei army's attack, but the Wei army's attack was too sharp, although the Liangzhou soldiers were strong, but it was difficult to block the advantage of the Wei army's superior forces and weapons.

The swords of the Liangzhou soldiers and the swords of the Wei army fought against each other, and the swords of the Wei army were intact, and the swords of the Liangzhou soldiers were broken, and of course they were killed by the Wei army.

Even if the Qiang soldiers were relatively strong and more fierce, the Wei army did not fall behind at all when facing them, and fought back and forth with the Qiang soldiers, slowly suppressing the Qiang soldiers.

Under the city wall, the Wei soldiers pushed the crash car and slammed into the city gate fiercely, and the city and the city attacked together, hitting the county seat of Xiangwu to a crumbling state.

At this time, Ma Teng and Ma Chao came out with the Qiang soldiers and other troops to support the defenders of the city gate, trying to save the situation of imminent defeat.
