Chapter Fifty-Nine: Ma Zishui Ambush?
Due to the fact that the Liaodong Army was too strong and the number of people was too large, some Liaodong troops had already attacked the head of Qingcheng City. Qingcheng is about to fall completely!
However, Wang Dali and the rest of the Qingcheng defenders saw that their main general, Hao Zhao, had such courage at a young age, and killed those fierce Liaodong soldiers with one sword and one sword, which made them extremely infected.
Therefore, Wang Dali and the others waved the weapons in their hands, like Hao Zhao, and killed and drove the Liaodong soldiers who had already attacked the head of Qingcheng City.
There is an urge not to drive the soldiers of the Liaodong Army off the city or kill them here!
At the same time, they, including Wang Dali, admired Hao Zhao very much, and they felt that Hao Zhao was worthy of being a young general that their lord Lu Bu particularly valued, and he had the demeanor of becoming a famous general through the ages!
"Kill, kill, kill...... Brothers, drive these Liaodong barbarians out of the city! ”
"Humph! If you dare to go south to offend our Wen County, our lord will not let you go! At that time, our lord will definitely cut off the head of Gongsun Du's old man and kick it as a ball! ”
"For the sake of our lord, and for our own meritorious deeds, wives and sons, brothers, kill! Defeat these Liaodong barbarians! ”
“……”
Infected by the young general Hao Zhao, the defenders of Qingcheng have become extremely strong, all of them are not afraid of death, and the weapons in their hands are like the sickles of death, killing the soldiers of the Liaodong Army who have attacked the head of Qingcheng City.
For a time, the Liaodong Army was defeated and retreated by the defenders of Qingcheng.
Under the leadership of Hao Zhao and Wang Dali, the defenders of Qingcheng exerted extraordinary combat effectiveness, killed the Liaodong army that attacked the city, and turned the danger into safety, so that the Liaodong army that was about to break through the city was defeated in this way, so that Gongsun Kang and Yangyi under the city saw it, and their faces were immediately blue with anger.
Just as they were about to continue a siege battle, a messenger suddenly came from the north.
This messenger is the messenger sent by Xiangping in Liaodong, who brought Gongsun Kang and Yangyi a letter of distress from Gongsun Du!
When Gongsun Kang and Yangyi saw the contents of the bamboo slip clearly, and it was Gongsun Du's handwriting, the words were full of urgency, which made Gongsun Kang and Yangyi's faces suddenly pale!
If Liaodong Xiangping is broken by the army led by Lu Bu, the end of their small family in Xiangping City can be imagined, even if they break through Qingcheng now, what is the use?!
So, Gongsun Kang and Yangyi glanced at each other, and had a thought in their hearts, that is, to quickly lead the army back to rescue Xiangping and drive Lu Bu and them out of Liaodong.
Of course, Gongsun Kang and Yangyi are not stupid people, they will not just withdraw their troops and let Hao Zhao and Wang Dali in Qingcheng lead the army out to kill them by surprise!
In this way, they have not yet gone back to rescue Xiangping in Liaodong, and they will be defeated by the Qingcheng defenders who have so many fewer troops, so how can they go back to rescue the lost rear?
So, Gongsun Kang and Yang Yi hurriedly collected their troops, and when it was the dead of night, they quietly pulled out the camp and quickly went north with the Liaodong Army that was going south.
It was not until early the next morning that the defenders of Qingcheng found that the Liaodong military camp outside the city had become empty, which made the defenders of Liaodong breathe a sigh of relief.
Because, seeing that there is nothing to do, the Liaodong Army has withdrawn!
Although they defeated the siege of the Liaodong Army again and again, they boasted of losses in terms of numbers after all, and they still understood the truth of 'defending for a long time, they would lose if they defended for a long time', and they would one day be attacked by the Liaodong Army, and when the time came, their outcome could be imagined!
At the head of Qingcheng City, Hao Zhao and Wang Dali stood together, looking at the empty Liaodong military camp, which made their eyes light up.
Now that the Liaodong Army has left overnight, there is no need to think about it, it must be that their lord Lu Bu has led the army to besiege Xiangping in Liaodong, and the news has been successfully passed on to the chief generals and deputy generals of the Liaodong Army in the south, Gongsun Kang and Yangyi.
However, in order to avoid the Liaodong army using conspiracy, it was to lure them out of the city or let them relax their vigilance, and then defeat them in one fell swoop and break through the Qingcheng that they were difficult to break.
So, Hao Zhao and Wang Dali hurriedly sent scouts to see if the Liaodong Army, which had originally gone south, was now rushing back to Xiangping to rescue.
When the news of the scouts came back, it was found that the Liaodong Army had really gone back to rescue Xiangping, so Hao Zhao and Wang Dali immediately led the Qingcheng defenders out of the city, and then followed the route left by the Liaodong Army.
Now, the Liaodong Army has gone back to rescue Xiangping, and it is useless for them to defend Qingcheng with so many troops, it is better to attack and destroy the Liaodong Army that went back to rescue with Lu Bu and them, and then, occupy Lelang County!
Besides, this was also an order given to them by Lu Bu, and they had to obey it!
Of course, for Qingcheng, the first line of defense in Wenjun in the south, they still have to defend it!
Therefore, they also left a thousand elite troops stationed in Qingcheng, closing the gates of the Quartet in case of emergency!
For Hao Zhao and Wang Dali, the Qingcheng defenders were hanging far behind them, and they were also discovered by the scouts of the Liaodong Army and passed back the news to Gongsun Kang and Yangyi.
However, they knew that they had no choice but to let the Qingcheng defenders led by Hao Zhao and Wang Dali hang far behind them.
Of course, they also want to ambush halfway and destroy the Qingcheng defenders led by Hao Zhao and Wang Dali in one fell swoop, but the most important thing for them now is to go back to rescue Xiangping.
They don't want that!
What's more, as long as you rescue Xiangping in Liaodong and stabilize the rear, are you afraid that you won't be able to deal with the enemy army that is alone in the depths?
To rescue the Liaodong Army, which was anxious to rescue Xiangping, the speed of the march was extremely fast, and it soon went north from outside Qingcheng City to the south bank of Mazi Water.
Gongsun Kang and Yang Yi looked at the Ma Zi water in front of them, which made them not in the mood to appreciate the magnificence of such mountains and rivers now, but on the contrary, they all looked solemn.
Because, they knew that Lu Bu had a navy that could sail across the sea, and it would naturally not be a problem for sailing in Mazi Water!
Along the way, they all went north unharmed, and now the army of Lu Bu, who has the upper hand, Gongsun Kang and Yangyi do not believe that Lu Bu will not lead the army to ambush them in the middle of the road, and this Ma Zishui is the best place to ambush them.
When they are halfway across the horse, if the navy under Lu Bu's tent comes out again, then they will suffer!
However, Xiangping still has to be saved, even if Ma Zishui has ambushes!
So, Gongsun Kang and Yangyi hurriedly sent a large number of scouts to rummage the upper and lower reaches of Ma Zishui to see if there was any Lu Bu's army ambushing them here.
At that time, it is not too late to lead the army across the Mazi River according to the actual situation!
