Although he was very unwilling, after seeing Liu He's army coming, Ma Chao had no choice but to announce his retreat, but after his army withdrew more than ten miles away, he found that although the enemy soldiers shouted and killed, he never found that half of the enemy soldiers had caught up.

"Virtuous nephew, it seems that we are in the middle of the plan, this time it is not Liu He's main army that comes to support, but it should be a small force, but there is a smart person in this small force, under the banner of Liu He, deliberately creating momentum, making us think that Liu He's main army came to help and scared us away, so as to achieve his goal of smoothly entering the city to support." Han Sui slowly came to Ma Chao and said softly.

"Until now, the little nephew has just woken up from a dream, alas, I really didn't expect that we were deceived by a nobody, and I didn't expect that Liu He's subordinates were all shameless people who only knew how to deceive people, since this is the case, then we immediately led the army to kill back, no matter what the price is, we will also break the city of Lintao, and kill all the troops and people in the city, hum, those troops should be killed, but the untouchables in the city should also be killed, if it weren't for their help, it is estimated that this city would have been taken by us a long time ago." Ma Chao gritted his teeth hatefully and said loudly.

But he saw Han Sui waving his hand and said: "Now that the soldiers are tired, let's set up camp here first, rest for a night, and wait until early tomorrow morning to attack the city." ”

"It's okay, it's up to my uncle." Ma Chao saw that it was getting late, the soldiers had been fighting hard for a day, and the grain of rice had not entered, it was indeed very hard, and if he fought immediately now, it would indeed be a little difficult, so he nodded and agreed to Han Sui's suggestion.

So the army set up camp on the spot, rested, and only waited for dawn the next day to launch a general attack on Lintao City.

Han Sui's judgment was not wrong, this time it was indeed only a small number of people who assisted Yang Fu, and this was the 3,000 soldiers led by Tianshui Taishou Wang Yi.

In fact, according to the previous agreement, Wang Yi should have been transferred to Chang'an, but because the people were struggling to stay, Wang Yi couldn't bear it, so he wrote to Liu He, asking to go back a year later.

However, I didn't expect that not long after, Wang Yi heard the news that Ma Chao and Han Sui led the army to attack Lintao, although Lintao belonged to Longxi County and did not belong to the jurisdiction of her Tianshui County, but NetEase deeply understood the truth of Chen's death, and also knew that whether it was Lintao or Tianshui, it was the territory of her lord Liu He, and they must not be allowed to invade wantonly, especially Han Sui and Ma Chao, who have left a notorious reputation in the local area.

So as soon as he received the news, Wang Yi scattered his family property, recruited soldiers, and urgently assisted Lintao City.

But after all, she is only a civil official, and has not been awarded a military position, plus Tianshui County after a series of battles, now the economy is withering, the labor force is seriously insufficient, and there are very few soldiers who join the army, after his repeated persuasion, there are some relatively wealthy families with relatively rich labor force to enlist in the army, and this is mostly a relatively surplus labor force, in fact, most of them refer to families with two male families, and such families generally after someone enlists in the army, only an elderly father is left to become the only male labor force

This is also due to the fact that Wang Yi enjoys a very high reputation here, otherwise even these centaurs would not be able to recruit them.

And these 3,000 men and horses only rushed to the front line after three or five days of emergency training, so they could only barely ride horses.

Because of this, Wang Yi knew that with her little men and horses was not enough to pose any threat to Ma Chao, but would cause death, so she had an idea, sent troops to urgently catch up with Liu He's Da Min, and went to support under the banner of Liu He, and ordered the sergeant to tie a branch behind the horse, and run quickly on the road, with the huge smoke and dust rolled out by the horse, the enemy mistakenly thought that a large number of soldiers and horses came to support.

Wang Yi's approach really deceived Han Sui and Ma Chao, and they had already become frightened birds, and fled without a fight, until Wang Yi's army entered the city, Han Sui finally reacted, but it was too late at this time, I believe that if you kill back at this time, the other party must be prepared, and it can be said that the gains outweigh the losses, so Han Sui decided to wait for the next day to attack.

Early the next morning, Ma Chao and Han Sui led the army to launch another onslaught on Lintao City, and this time the offensive was completely different from the past, the soldiers were all in a frenzy, mainly because during the siege, Ma Chao gave an order, whoever was the first to climb the city wall, gave the marquis of Guannei, and at the same time, after breaking the city, the soldiers were allowed to loot freely for three days, whether it was jade silk or women, no matter how much they grabbed, all belonged to the robber.

After hearing such an order, the soldiers naturally looked like crazy tigers, and their morale and combat strength were rising rapidly.

However, at this time, the pressure in the city was much lighter than yesterday, and this was naturally the ancient time of the three thousand soldiers brought by Wang Yi to participate in the exhibition.

Although these soldiers have not received systematic training and their combat experience is very lacking, but under Yang Fu's skill bonus, their combat effectiveness is not much worse than the elite under Ma Chao's command, and in a desperate state, they are even stronger than Ma Chao's elite, coupled with the cooperation of the soldiers under Yang Fu's command, the current Lintao City is like a very difficult to gnaw but with an attractive aroma of meat and bones.

But after all, these 3,000 people are new recruits, and their combat effectiveness is enough, but they are not rich in combat experience, and in just two hours of siege warfare, Wang Yi's 3,000 soldiers lost nearly 1,000 people, accounting for more than half of the total number of casualties today.

"Haha, the losses of the thieves today are quite small, and we will continue tomorrow and strive to take Lintao City in one go." The current Ma Chao can be described as high-spirited and proud, and he believes that if he comes again tomorrow, this Lintao City will definitely be captured by him.

However, at this moment, only the rumbling sound of horses' hooves could be heard in the distance, followed by flags covering the sky, earth-shattering shouts of killing, and the smoke and dust that were rolled up.......

"Hmph, I've played this once, I didn't expect the other party to still play this kind of trick, if I let you into the city today, I won't be surnamed Ma! Send the order to go down and kill the other party's reinforcements, this time no matter what, to capture the sneaky person behind you! When Ma Chao saw the other party's "reinforcements", he immediately felt angry and immediately ordered the army to chase after him.
