Chapter Twenty-Eight: Liaonan County

The Han army camp was full of flames, and the earth was like day. After clearing the battlefield, the sky is already clear. Nearly 10,000 people were burned to death and wounded, more than 30,000 people were captured, and the rest were killed and wounded. Zhang Fei frowned and looked at the Ma Han captives outside the camp, and asked Xu Shu: "Military advisor, this Ma Han barbarian is really not beaten, so many prisoners, it is also a problem to send them to Liaodong?" "It's okay, General Wen Qian is expected to arrive at noon, send two thousand cavalry, follow General Wei Mao's grain and grass soldiers, and return to Liaodong." "The combat strength of the grain and grass soldiers is worrying, and if so many people make trouble on the road, it may be difficult to stop it." "Hehe, General Yide, don't worry, on the road, let Ma Hanshi's pawn be half full, can you make a mess?" "Hahaha, Yuan Zhi, you guys have a lot of ideas for being a military advisor, this method is good, I can rest assured."

At noon, Le Jin led the troops to arrive, and he was overjoyed to hear that Zhang Fei had broken 70,000 enemies in two days. Rectify the army, wait for Wei Mao to escort the grain and grass to come, rest for a day, send 2,000 cavalry, carry more arrows, escort 30,000 prisoners, and return to Liaodong with 10,000 grain and grass soldiers.

Le Jin led a thousand cavalry and Xu Shu Zhang Fei around the city of consolation, slowly turned around, and saw that above the city, the soldiers and horses were dense, and they were waiting for the battle, and they were quite worried. Xu Shu said: "There are still 60,000 or 70,000 troops outside the city, and when attacking the city, we will prevent him from attacking my back road, so I will break through the land outside the city first." Le Jin nodded, "I heard that King Ben Han was recruiting more than 100,000 people to come, and there were nearly 200,000 people in the city. If you attack our army with the soldiers and horses in the city, how can you stop it? "I don't know if King Chenhan also recruits people, if Chenhan arrives, he may be able to use it." "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, I said you two, grind and chirp, and raise the army to kill it." Zhang Fei said impatiently. "General Yide, my army only has 40,000 horses, how can I fight with more than 200,000 horses? If you hurt 1,000 enemies, you will lose 800 yourself, and if the enemy is wounded, we can't afford to hurt us. Lejin said slowly. Well, that's right. Zhang Fei grinned. The big victory the day before yesterday was our calculation first, and now that the Ma and Han people have suffered this big loss, they must be strictly guarded, if the two armies fight, the victory is very small. Xu Shu said. Zhang Fei scratched his scalp, twisted his body on the horse, and said with a smile: "Grandma, in this way, this battle is not easy to fight." ”

When Su Maji heard the news of the defeat, he was depressed and borrowed wine to drown his sorrows, and then the general who defended the city came to report, "King, the Han army commander will peep into my Malaysia Han Chengchi arrangement, whether to send soldiers and horses to kill them." Although Su Maji drank a lot, his mind was still sober, and he said: "Since you dare to come and peep into my city, there must be arrangements, don't fall for the tricks of the Han army again, let him go." Guard the city to prevent the Han army from stealing the city. Wotai looked at Su Maji's drunken appearance, and looked down on one hundred and twenty people in his heart, and secretly said in his heart, I have more than 200,000 troops, and the Han army is only 30,000 or 40,000 people. Wotai returned to the city and said very sternly to the generals guarding the city: "The king has an order, strictly guard the city, and do not go to war without authorization." Among the guards, a young general shouted: "General, the Han army has only 1,000 people, and the last general will have 2,000 men and horses, and they can be captured." "Wotai looked at it, it turned out to be Su Maji's nephew Zhao Jiu, secretly said, provoked him, let Zhao Jiu fight, it was my credit for the victory, and if he lost, he didn't know, would King Su Maji kill his nephew? So he said: "We Malaysia and Han were defeated by the Han army, and the king was afraid of being killed by the Han army, so let us guard the city." Remember, you shall not go to war without permission. The Han army laughs, let's let them laugh. After saying that, he turned around and left. Zhao dove shouted angrily, this kid usually relies on his own bravery, and he is a close relative of the king, how can anyone put it in his eyes, hearing the words of Wotai, he was furious, jumped off the city, lit up two thousand guards, opened the city gate, and killed Le Jin and his party. Wotai didn't go far, and when he saw Zhao Gu killing out of the city, he smiled secretly in his heart, lying on the city, watching Zhao Gu do something.

When Le Jin saw that there were men and horses killed, he ordered a thousand cavalry to slowly march towards Dazhai. When Zhao Jiu saw Le Jin retreating, he thought he was cowardly, and led more than 2,000 people, screaming and killing him. Seeing that they had caught up, Le Jin gave an order, and the cavalry took off their crossbows, mounted arrows, and saw that Zhaojiu's men and horses entered the firing range, and with a wave of their hands, a thousand arrows were like a shower, and they pounced on Zhaojiu's army. The omen held a rudimentary shield to cover it, and when he turned his head to look, there were about six or seven hundred people who had been hit by arrows behind him. Zhao Jiu was furious, hit the horse and rushed, Le Jin pulled out his saber and rushed out first, Zhang Fei shouted loudly, and also galloped forward. Zhao Jiu met Le Jin, deceived Le Jin with a short saber, and stabbed the spear in his hand to Le Jin, Le Jin sneered, the saber slashed straight down, Zhao Jiu's gun barrel was a knife and two sections, so frightened that Zhao Jiu hit the horse and left, Le Jin opened his bow and arrow, shot at Zhao Jiu, and hit the shoulder. At this time, a thousand cavalry entered the battle circle, and only killed the Zhaojiu personal guards crying for their fathers and mothers, only hating their parents for giving birth to two legs for themselves, spreading their feet, and fleeing back to the city. Seeing that Zhaojiu was defeated, Wotai hurriedly opened the city gate and led 5,000 men and horses to respond. When Le Jin saw the arrival of the brigade, Mingjin collected his troops and returned to Dazhai.

For a few days, the scouts came to report that Benhan and Chenhan had soldiers and horses coming and went down to the village outside the consolation city. Ma Han and Ben Han were hostile to the Chenhan people, and set up the Chenhan camp in front of the Han army camp, the meaning is obvious, let the Chenhan people be cannon fodder first.

Xu Shu heard that the Chenhan people were camping in front, called the Chenhan guide, and said: "Liu Junshou once said that the Chenhan people are the remnants of the Great Qin, and we are all in the same vein as Yan and Huang. I don't know if you are willing to go deep into the camp of Chenhan, say anti-Chenhan, and fight against the Mahan and Benhan coalition forces. Several Chenhan guides hesitated and said: "Master Strategist, it is the Mahan people who lead the Chenhan army, and if you want Chenhan to rebel, you must first get rid of the Mahan leader." Xu Shu said with a smile: "This army division has long expected that you will be like this after entering the Chenhan camp. Guide Chenhan was overjoyed and nodded in agreement.

After nightfall, the deputy generals Li Cheng and Ma Yuan led 5,000 men and horses to raid the Chenhan camp. The Chenhan camp was well defended, the patrol soldiers were constantly coming and going, and the torches on the wall were high, shining like the day. Li Cheng and Ma Yuan came to the front and ordered dozens of soldiers to shoot at the torches on the wall. Dozens of people were good in the army, arrows were everywhere, and torches were extinguished. Li Cheng and Ma Yuan shouted, 5,000 men and horses rushed to the wall, the patrol soldiers shouted Jin to warn, Li Cheng and Ma Yuan had already thrown out the rope and pulled down the wall by horsepower, and the army roared into the Chenhan camp.

Under the command of Ma Han, the Chenhan people had already lined up their formations, and Li Cheng and Ma Yuan rushed to kill for a while, but when they saw that they could not win, they withdrew from the battlefield. Several Chenhan guides had already infiltrated the Chenhan camp.
