However, it was said that Sima Yi learned that Ma Chao's light cavalry suddenly went east, and he thought that they were going to recapture Luoyang in the opposite direction and counterattack behind their own back, but Ma Chao did not appear outside Luoyang City at all, and realized that people's intentions were not so simple, and it was likely that they wanted to smuggle into the street pavilion, and they suddenly became anxious. Vertex updates are the fastest

When the Jieting defenders came to the news that Ma Chao had gone east, they understood that because Cao Zhen's whole army was pressed to Tianshui, and he transferred 10,000 from the Chang'an defenders, Zhang led 10,000 troops deep into Chencang's old road, at this time, only Guo Huai's 10,000 people were left, and Chang'an's 10,000 defenders were left, and there were basically no other decent troops.

No wonder after the Ge thief defeated Cao Xiu last time, he gave up Linwei and did not attack, it turned out that he wanted to lure the Guanzhong army to Longyou, this time, when they arrived in Guanzhong, they would definitely not be like last time, just scare and scare people.

If Guanzhong is lost, what is the point of them staying in this Longyou place?

This right place, compared with Guanzhong, is more important and which is lighter, and it is clear at a glance.

If you say that you lost Guanzhong in order to save Longyou, it is really the legendary one who picked up sesame seeds and lost watermelons, which is a big loss!

What's more, I haven't picked up this sesame seed yet.

It's just that the enemy is too bold to use troops like this! It's completely unreasonable, and it's even used to go deep again and again!

No, no, no, since the enemy has calculated so far, it is definitely not only Ma Chao's light cavalry that can reach Guanzhong.

Ma Chao has already gone away, and it is impossible to catch up and intercept again, and the only thing that can be counted on now is that Zhang Zaicang Road can rely on the ground to stop the enemy's Hanzhong army, and the light army of Meridian Valley and Fu Luo Road can burn down the plank road as soon as possible to prevent the enemy's reinforcements from entering Guanzhong.

The question is, even if you understand this now, what should you do when you have to give up Longyou and return to Baoguanzhong? How do you talk to Cao Zhen?

That Ma Chao just broke through from his own defense line!

I still persuaded Cao Zhen to be cautious.

The more Sima Yi thought about it, the more he was afraid, if Guanzhong was lost, with Liu Bei's appeal, after recapturing Xijing, the people who responded to him in the world would not be able to count, and when the time came, he was afraid that there would be many people in Luoyang, the eastern capital, who would take the opportunity to cause trouble.

Thinking about it again, if you lose the pass because of your carelessness, you can't afford this sin.

He can't wait to slap himself eighty times in a row now, and he wants to endure it for half his life, but he has to say more words at this juncture, and he was instructed by others to come to Longyou to defend against the enemy, and as a result, he got into such a big trouble.

Could it be that those guys took the opportunity to point at me and saw that this was something to be messed with?

He hates Xiahou Ba to death now, it's all this guy, he has to chase it, and as a result, his remaining 3,000 cavalry are almost ruined, otherwise, sending them to follow Ma Chao to harass him can also delay the offensive of others.

Forget it, the stakes are very high, we must quickly let Cao Zhen divide the army back to Guanzhong, help Guo Huai and them to defend against the enemy, and also quickly call Zhang back, let him guard the Sanguan tightly, and stop the army of Shu Han and Hanzhong.

Yes, Xiahou Ba, just put the responsibility on Xiahou Ba, anyway, their Xiahou family and the Cao family are one, if you don't go to Xiahou Ba, it will be difficult to investigate my Sima Yi.

Without further ado, Sima Yi decided to call Xiahou Ba to talk immediately.

Xiahou Bazheng was ambushed by Ma Chao, although the loss of soldiers was only more than 1,000 people, but the war horses and food were robbed a lot, and he was frustrated at the moment, and when he heard that Sima Yi was looking for him, he came in with a face full of shame.

Sima Yi knew that the Cao family and the Xiahou family were particularly cunning except for a few people in Cao Cao, but most of the rest of the people were straightforward men, what Xiahou Xiahou Yuan Xiahou Shang Cao Xiu Cao Zhen Cao Zhang Cao Zhi were all rectums, temperamental, and easy to deal with.

He didn't open his mouth to blame Xiahou Ba, but as soon as he saw people coming in, his face was full of sadness, sighing, and his expression was sad.

"Zhongquan!" Sima Yi couldn't wait for the old tears, and he really spilled a few tears.

"Your Excellency!" Xiahou Ba saw that people were so sad, thinking that it was because of the defeat, which was caused by his own stubbornness.

Sima Yi wiped his face and choked up: "It's over, we all deserve to die." Ma Chaohe, he, he has bypassed us and run to Guanzhong. We just want to chase now, and there are no cavalry to send! ”

Xiahou Ba was shocked and felt breathless, but he still held on to a trace of luck: "My lord, with so many people like them, it is impossible for them to dare to go deep into the Guanzhong alone, right?" ”

What kind of people, didn't your subordinates say that there are tens of thousands of riders? Seeing that Xiahou Ba didn't know the serious consequences, Sima Yi had to remind again: "Zhongquan, don't you know that that time, the leading general was quickly rushed to the rear by Ma Chao because of the defeat in the first battle with the enemy, which led to the defeat of our army Longyou?" ”

Xiahou Ba no longer argued, what people said was a lesson in front of him, in this way, he despised the enemy and followed in the footsteps of Cao Xiu.

"My lord, what should I do now?" Xiahou Ba was in a hurry.

"Alas!" Sima Yi sighed, "I don't know what to do. Now, Long You is the general of Zhengxi who is in charge of the armies, so let's go and ask him for instructions. I'm worried that if this horse runs to Guanzhong, there will be people and horses in Hanzhong who will sneak around to Guanzhong to assist him. You know, now in Guanzhong, we don't have any people left. If Chang'an is lost, and Ma Chao runs over from our side, can we afford this crime? ”

Yes? Will someone in Hanzhong smuggle to Guanzhong to pick up Ma Chao? Xiahou Ba didn't think about it so much, but if it was true, he attacked rashly and let Ma Chao go, causing Cao Pi to lose Chang'an, he really had no face, and he might not have the life to go home to see people, so he hurriedly said to Sima Yi: "Yes, then let's go and tell General Zhengxi and ask him to make a decision quickly." You can rest assured, it was my Xiahouba who repeatedly asked to fight, and I am willing to bear the responsibility for my impulsiveness! ”

The two immediately went south to Jicheng to meet Cao Zhen.

Cao Zhen was almost killed by a brick that night, and now one shoulder has not been swollen, and that arm can't move at all.

"You, you, didn't you still advise me not to attack lightly? How did you make such a mistake? He pointed at Sima Yi, a little incredulous.

Sima Yi hurriedly turned his gaze to Xiahou Ba, hoping that he would come out quickly to confess his guilt.

Xiahou Ba was embarrassed, he was very embarrassed to speak, and he was aggrieved for a while before kneeling down and pleading guilty to Cao Zhen: "It's all because I attacked without authorization, which led to Ma Chao's ambush and was taken advantage of by him to win the east."
