Ma Chao stabbed Yan Xing in the chest with a shot, but Yan Xing was completely unmoved as if he didn't feel pain, and the big knife was still slashing at Ma Chao's head. He didn't care about his own life or death, but he also wanted to pull Ma Chao together.

Ma Chao drew his big gun tightly, but found that his big gun was stuck by Yan Xing's ribs and armor. Yan Xing's eyes shot a strange light at this time, as if he saw Ma Chao die under his own knife. But at this moment, Ma Chao made a move that Yan Xing didn't expect at all, he saw that the big gun couldn't be drawn, so he let go of the big gun with his hand.

Yan Xing only cared about wrestling with Ma Chao, he didn't expect Ma Chao to let go at all, his body almost fell off the horse's back one by one, and the big knife in his hand also changed direction, and Ma Chao successfully dodged it. Ma Chao slammed the horse, the war horse rushed forward in pain, his body passed by Yan Xing's side, and at this moment, Ma Chao pulled out the sword at his waist, and the sword flashed Yan Xingdou's big head and was cut off by Ma Chao.

Li Kan on the side, seeing Ma Chao kill Yan Xing, he was extremely frightened, completely ignoring Ma Chao but he had no weapons, turned his horse and fled. Ma Chao turned around and picked up the big gun and pulled it out of Yan Xing's headless corpse.

When Ma Chao turned around, Li Kan had already run into the crowd. Ma Chao didn't think too much about waving his gun and chased after him, but at this time a miserable scream sounded, but it was Ma Dai who stabbed and ended up playing with the horse who fought against him.

Ma Chao turned his head, Li Kanjin ran out of the city through the crowd on his horse, Yang Qiu outside the city was directing the men and horses to fight with the Qiang people, Cheng Gongying was behind him to check and fill in the gaps, and they broke up all the Qiang attacks for a while.

At this moment, Li Kan ran out, and he shouted at the two: "Retreat, Ma Chao is in the city!" If you don't leave, you won't be able to leave! After speaking, he took his men and ran in the direction of Tianshui City first.

Yang Qiu and Cheng Gongying glanced at each other, and immediately led people to retreat together with him. As for Yan Xing and Ma Play, no one cares about their lives or deaths at all.

The three of them ran out for more than thirty miles with the men and horses in one go, and then stopped. The count of the number of people found that there were a full 18,000 missing. Except for those trapped in the city, most of them were killed or captured by the Qiang.

Yang Qiu and Li Kan looked at Cheng Gongying together, waiting for him to come up with an idea. Cheng Gongying looked at the two of them and the remnants of the defeated generals behind them, sighed and said, "Go back!" With Ma Chao guarding here, we can't break through this Wudu City at all, let alone aid Hanzhong. Let's go back together and ask the lord for his guilt! ”

Yang Qiu and Li Kan also sighed, and then the three of them returned to Jincheng along the same route with 12,000 men and horses. When he came out, there were four generals, 30,000 horses, and the morale was high. When he returned, there were only two generals left, 12,000 men, not to mention the morale, which was almost gone.

Not to mention that they retreated, but after Ma Chao stabbed Yan Xing, he took his head and worshiped the tragic death of the Ma family outside the city, and Ma Dai also brought the head of the horse to play. After the worship, Ma Chao said clearly: "Next time, I will definitely bring Han Sui's head and worship all the relatives again." ”

This battle directly disrupted the deployment of Cao's army, Cao Cao was furious after learning the news, if it weren't for Yecheng couldn't get out, he would have wanted to go to Hanzhong to meet Han Fei for a while. At this time, Sima Yi, who came from Xu Du, offered a plan: "Lord, Liu Bei has become a leader, and it may be difficult to compete with us close to him, so it is better to unite with Dongwu!" ”

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes after hearing this: "Gu and that Sun Quan have fought many bloody battles to seize Jingzhou, I'm afraid he won't agree to an alliance with Gu!" ”

Sima Yi said with a smile: "As the so-called lips are dead and the teeth are cold, if Sun Quan is a person who understands, he will definitely not look at Liu Bei's family dominantly, and now it seems that only by restricting Liu Bei can he have further possibilities." So his subordinates thought that he would not refuse the alliance. ”

Cao Cao listened to Sima Yi's analysis and felt that what he said was reasonable, so he wrote a handwritten letter and handed it to Sima Yi to order him to immediately set off for Eastern Wu to sign an alliance with Na Sun Quan to attack Liu Bei together.

For insurance, Sima Yi made a detour to Jingzhou and rushed to Chaisang City, the capital of Eastern Wu. That's half a month. During this period, Han Fei continued to use troops against Hanzhong City, and the large camp outside the city was broken by Liu Beijun's general Zhao Yun, and Hao Zhao fled back to the city with the remaining more than 5,000 people, so that Hanzhong City was surrounded by Liu Beijun. Cao Ren in the city was helpless, so he had to write a letter again for help.

Cao Cao soon received Cao Ren's letter, so he sent his godson Cao Zhen with 20,000 men to support. Cao Zhen led the troops alone for the first time, and he was careful to investigate every place before moving forward, so it took nearly a month for the team to arrive near Hanzhong City.

At this time, Sima Yi also rushed to the capital of Eastern Wu and met Sun Quan. Sun Quan was also very jealous of Liu Bei's army, and he had almost no other requirements, so he directly agreed to Cao Cao's proposal, and the two sides formed an alliance to deal with Liu Beijun.

After Sima Yi watched Sun Quan sign his name, he took the letter of alliance that belonged to him in his hand. He read that there was no problem, so he took his leave and returned to Xudu. Soon after Sima Yi left, Sun Quan personally led his troops straight to Jianye City, he wanted to take back this place and completely drive Liu Beijun back to the north of the Yangtze River.

As soon as Sun Quan made a move here, Liu Beijun soon learned the news. He finally decided to drive the expedition in person, but there was no way for Han Fei to be tripped under Hanzhong City, while Guan Yu was left in Yecheng to continue to confront Cao Cao's army.

Liu Bei led a large army to Jianye City, obviously he planned to have a good fight with Sun Quan here. When Sun Quan heard this, he immediately sent the general Huang Zhong to lead people to kill Jianye City, and at the same time, Zhou Yu's army rushed to Jianye City by water.

The battle under Jianye City was about to break out, and Liu Bei was also a little excited at this time. This is his first royal expedition after becoming the king of Qi, so this time Liu Bei has to play a show.

As Liu Beijun and Sun Quanjun both arrived at the predetermined location, both sides sent small groups of troops to fight a few battles under the city in the past two days. Basically, they won and lost each other, but Liu Bei and Zhou Yu were not in a hurry to make a move. Liu Bei basically came to delay time, and Zhou Yu also got Sun Quan's order to wait for Cao's army to attack and fight Liu Bei, and then let Zhou Yu lead the army to attack Jianye City.

Zhou Yu was deeply convinced by Sun Quan's words, and he decided that he must wait for Cao Jun's side to launch first. After Cao Cao knew that Sun Quan had signed the alliance, he suddenly felt that his opportunity to counterattack had come. In this way, he dispatched troops from Yecheng and fought with Guan Yu twice. As a result, both times ended in a draw, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel more jealous of his Liu Beilai, how many fierce generals and commanders under his command.
