Chapter 1188: Dead End
At this time, Ma Chao still didn't know that the situation was so bad now. Let's say that Cherrigi escaped and fled to Nan'an with Yueji and Yadan. After completing the regrouping of troops, Ma Chao was about to take advantage of the emptiness in Longxi to send troops to attack. Suddenly, someone came to report, and several Qiang people came to ask for a meeting, saying something important to report. When Ma Chao heard this, he raised his eyebrows, thinking that his Ma clan had always had a deep friendship with the Qiang people, and these Qiang people must have come to meet each other. Ma Chao was in need of employment at the moment, so he summoned him in. Cheriji took Yue Ji and Yadan into the palace to visit, Ma Chao saw that although the three of them were disgraced and embarrassed, they had their own style, and they knew that they were not idle people at a glance. When Ma Chao saw the three of them, he was already a little happy in his heart, and asked in a deep voice.
"Three heroes, I don't know what is the matter here!?"
Cherrigi's face changed, and he suddenly knelt down and bowed.
"Please take revenge on my brothers who died in vain!!"
When Ma Chao heard this, his expression was shocked, and he cast his eyes at Kuai Liang. Kuailiang understood, and asked Cherrigi what he said. Cherrigi then told him about the past. Ma Chao's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he shuddered even more, as if he had fallen into an ice cave. Wen Han is like a god, as if his every move was predicted first. At present, Wen Han is stabilizing the chaos in Longxi with lightning speed, so that Ma Chao's original calculation will be difficult to achieve. Ma Chao was shocked and angry, and asked Kuai Liang urgently.
"Wen Bufan has arrived in Longxi, if our army wants to attack again, it is no longer difficult to ascend to the sky, what should be the plan now!?"
Kuai Liang's face was calm, his eyes were shining, and he thought for a while, and then he gave up.
"General Ma, don't be impatient. Now the situation is critical, and if we are in chaos, we will be in danger. Since Longxi is difficult to take, in my opinion, I should quickly withdraw the army, rush back to Tianshui, and then attack it with strange soldiers, echoing with my wife's 20,000 soldiers and horses. Tianshui can be broken. Even when we waited for the troops to be stationed in Tianshui, they were slowly entangled with the Tang thieves. When the army division pacified Xichuan, he will definitely send troops to attack Dongchuan quickly, so that the Tang thieves can't take care of each other. In this way, our army will have an opportunity! ”
Kuai Liang was in danger and did another trick. Ma Chao was overjoyed when he heard this, and laughed again and again. In His Royal Highness, Cherrigi also listened to it very well, and was amazed by Kuailiang's wisdom. Only Yadan had a calm face, as if he had his own thoughts.
Ma Chao then ordered the generals to wait for the next morning, and then they went to Tianshui to kill. At the same time, he also sent Cheriji as the captain, Yueji as the tooth keeper, and Yadan as the horse archer.
That night, Cheriji returned to the post station with Yueji, Yadan and others to rest. Suddenly, Yadan whispered to Cheriji and Yueji with a calm face.
"Lord, there is no room left here. Otherwise, you will be killed! ”
When Cherrigi heard this, his face suddenly changed. Yadan has never spoken or acted cautiously, and if he was not eighty or ninety percent sure, he would not speak like this. Yue Ji was also shocked, and he didn't seem to be able to react for a while. Today, I can clearly hear that the Han man named Kuai Liang said a clever plan, if it is as he said, how can there be a disaster of death? At this time, Cherrigie's eyes widened and he hurriedly asked.
"Yadan, what are you talking about!?"
Yadan narrowed his eyes and leaned over to whisper in their ears.
"I think Ma Mengqi seems to be unscrupulous and obedient to that good word. But the Han man named Kuailiang is just a vain person! This is extraordinary to Longxi, and sooner or later it will be attacked. If we abandon Nan'an, Wen Bufan will definitely expect our army to kill Nan'an, and he will naturally cover up the killing. If it is instantaneous, our army can quickly break through Tianshui City with Tianshui's soldiers and horses, and defend the city, or it may be able to resist Wen Bufan's 40,000 army. But if our army falls into a stalemate, and Wen Bufan attacks from behind, our army will be wiped out! What's more, I heard that Zhao Zilong, the ** Shenlong general, has rushed to Tianshui, and Tianshui is guarded by Li You. I'm afraid that in the meantime, Tianshui ** has discovered the clue and defeated Ma Mengqi's soldiers and horses left in Tianshui! If this is the case, our army will become a turtle in an urn! In my opinion, there are many dangers in this, and it is really unwise for us to wait for it! ”
Cherrigi listened to this, and suddenly his face was gloomy and groaned. Cherrigi is not a foolish person, and Yadan's analysis has seen through the hidden dangers of the moment. When Yue Ji, who was on the side, heard this, he suddenly had a seizure and shouted angrily.
"That's the case, I'll tell General Ma as soon as possible!"
When Yadan heard this, he hurriedly made a silent gesture and said in a panic.
"You horseman, how can you be so reckless! Ma Mengqi has always been over-eyed, arrogant and stubborn, I am soft-spoken, how can he listen to me. What if we are punished for the crime of disturbing the morale of the army!? ”
When Yue Ji heard this, his huge eyes widened, and he was about to speak to refute. Cherrigi waved his hand and said in a deep voice.
What Yadan said is very true. I don't think this Ma Mengqi is a Ming Jun, why should I serve him to death, when we march tomorrow, we will wait to wait and see the situation and flee. ”
Cherrigi said this, and Yueji immediately stopped his mouth. So the three of them had made an agreement, and they went to rest until the morrow.
The next morning, the sun rose. Ma Chao gave an order, led the troops out of the city, and looked at the sky and water to kill quickly. Not long after Ma Chao left, just at noon, Wen Han happened to lead his troops to Nan'an City. Wen Han saw that there was not a single soldier of the barbarian army in the city, and he expected that Ma Chao had already jumped away, and the thunder was furious, and the troops of the Swift Sect galloped to cover up and attack.
However, it was said that the horse had surpassed the head of the Nan'an boundary and would go to Tianshui County, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the troops would rest. Ma Chao was resting in the tent, and suddenly a soldier came to report in a hurry, Mrs. Yan Zhurong was not far away, and she was rushing to the camp with the scouts in the army. When Ma Chao heard this, his color suddenly changed, and he didn't care about why his wife came here, so he hurriedly rushed out of the tent to see. At this time, Mrs. Zhurong also happened to see Ma Chao, and cried about the past. Ma Chao heard that Li You and Zhao Yun broke the 20,000 soldiers and horses of their own army, and the 20,000 soldiers and horses were completely damaged, and only his wife escaped, or Li You deliberately let go and let her report the news. Ma Chao was so angry that he roared as hard as he could, and he fainted in anger. Suddenly, exclamations and urgent screams erupted, and the barbarians from all over the world rushed to visit, and there was a great chaos in the village.
Mrs. Zhurong was so frightened that she hurriedly taught the sergeant to help her into the bed in the tent. Half-ringing, Ma Chao woke up leisurely. But when he heard that Cherrigi and the others had fled in a panic just now. When Kuai Liang heard this, his face changed greatly, thinking that Cheriji was a ** spy, and hurriedly said.
"Not good! Those three Qiang people must be meticulous, if they let him and others escape, there will be endless troubles!! The general can quickly send people to pursue him, and be sure to capture those three people!! ”
As soon as Kuailiang's words fell, suddenly there was a burst of earth-shaking shouts of killing outside the village. I saw that behind the barbarian army village, a group of Tang soldiers and horses came to kill all over the mountains. The sound of drums shook the earth, and the Tang soldiers were murderous, like a tiger descending from the mountain, and I don't know how many people and horses flocked to the barbarian army's village. The barbarian village grass was created and erected, and it was a village shed and antlers. The Tang soldiers fought bravely, and the barbarians were panicked because Ma Chao had fainted before, and when they saw so many Tang soldiers killing at this time, they were suddenly frightened and panicked. Ma Chao rushed out of the camp, and saw that countless Tang soldiers had entered the village, killing everywhere, killing the soldiers and horses in a mess, like a landslide. The horse shouted loudly, hurriedly raised his gun on the horse, and rushed to kill the horse to defend against foreign enemies. The Tang soldiers fought bravely, seeing that the barbarians were losing and retreating, and suddenly a general came out of the crowd, silver armor and silver spears, handsome and majestic, like a man like a wild lion, it was Ma Chao. Ma Chao's flying spear slammed and clashed, and Tang Bing was caught off guard for a while. At this time, outside the village, a group of people and horses rushed over, and the general who led the army was Wen Han. It turned out that Pang Tong had a warning earlier, saying that Ma Chao was not far away, and the soldiers were fast, so they should pursue as soon as possible. So Wen Han urged the three armies to advance quickly, and hurried in the starry night, until the barbarian army Dazhai was a few miles away, and later heard that the scouts came to report, and the barbarian army Dazhai was lax, and then I didn't know what happened, and the soldiers were in chaos. Wen Han made a quick decision, and then taught the three armies to rush and kill and attack the barbarian village.
At this time, Han saw Ma Chao rushing to kill, although one person and one horse, he had the monstrous power of thousands of troops and horses, and he was invincible. Wen Han's face was cold, and his eyes shimmered. Pang Tong beside him, with a faint smile on his extremely ugly face, and his bright and blazing eyes made his ugly face even more brilliant. I just listened to Pang Tong and said to Wen Han unhurriedly.
"The horse thief is heroic, and there is no general in our army at the moment. The lord can do so and so. ”
When Wen Han heard this, his eyes froze and he bowed slightly. Suddenly, Wen Han soared on his horse, stepped on the clouds and rushed out, like a hurricane rushing to the rest of the walled gate.
"Ma Mengqi!! But I still know Lonely!! ”
Wen Han shouted loudly, like thunder exploding. Ma Chao, who was rushing to kill, suddenly heard this shout, and suddenly his face changed, his face was full of cruelty and hideousness, and a pair of lion-eyed anger and hatred burst out, and in a blink of an eye, he saw Wen Han. How could Ma Chao not recognize this person, it was he who led the soldiers and horses to invade Xiliang, which caused the Ma family to be ruined, the power collapsed, and they fell into the lost dogs. The person Ma Chao hates the most in his life is this person!!
"Whoa!! Wen! No!! Every!!! Accept your life!! ”
In an instant, Ma Chao seemed to have lost his mind, and he rushed straight at Wen Han with a spear. Ma Chao was furious and ferocious, like a rampaging lion, killing a group of people on their backs, and no one could stop them. Wen Han was not afraid, and when he saw Ma Chao's sudden attack approaching, he left the horse. Ma Chao rushed forward suddenly, and there was no way to go forward, not to kill Wen Han, to stab the enemy, and never give up!
Fortunately, Wen Han was fast and rushed back into the formation. Ma Chao followed closely to kill. At this moment, under Pang Tong's order, the crossbowmen on both wings suddenly fired arrows, and Ma Chao's mind was all on Wen Han, and he didn't expect it for a while, and the arrow rain came wildly. Ma Chao hurriedly dialed the brocade silver lion tooth gun to resist the random arrows. A wave of arrows fell, Pang Tong's smile was even more victorious, and he issued another military order, and the sword and shield hands and pikemen in the center of the front shouted in unison, surging and rushing. Ma Chao was caught off guard and rushed desperately, but he couldn't break through, but he was killed and retreated. Wen Han returned to the formation and glanced at Pang Tong. Wen Han understood and shouted.
"Ma Mengqi, you don't know what you can do, you have repeatedly risked the power of loneliness, now you have become a tiger in the trap, why don't you quickly get off the horse and surrender, look at the face of Ma Gong, you can survive in the world!!"
Ma Chao respected Ma Teng the most in his life, and when he heard it, he was murderous, and his whole handsome face was as hideous as a ghost.
