Chapter 580: Revenge Plan

An autumn rain fell, the heat disappeared, everything was depressed, spring went to autumn, and the mountains and rivers were still the same.

In a private house in the east of Xiuwu City, Sima Yi sat under the plane tree, guarding the lonely grave alone, and his hair was white.

A change in his mood has changed greatly, the hot-blooded young man who was once full of ambition and determined to save the country is dead at the moment, and his blood is cold!

I think he was also born in a eunuch family, subdued Confucianism, had a prominent reputation, hated Dong Zhuo deeply, secretly hated Cao Cao, sighed for the decline of the court, and ran for the people to cry out, how could he embark on such a desperate road?

I can't help but think of the time when I pretended to be sick and was broken by the maid, and my wife Zhang Chunhua killed the two without hesitation, but she still couldn't escape Cao Cao's coercion, and embarked on a career for the clan, but unexpectedly she also harmed the clansmen.

Shouchun came to prominence in the first war, and Chang'an fought only to serve the country, but he never thought that there would be such consequences......

"You're just a pawn on the board!"

Sima Yi suddenly remembered that after Shouchun was dismissed, when he visited his teacher Hu Zhao at his home, he said that he was persuaded to stop in moderation.

But at that time, he was young and vigorous, he had just tasted the sweetness of leading troops, and he felt that he had the ability to strategize and control the world, and he only wanted to realize his ambitions, and he didn't take it to heart.

At this time, when I thought about it again, I suddenly woke up like a dream, and muttered: "I really used it by Cao Cao?" ”

A drop of water fell, hitting his forehead, the cold touch brought him back to his senses, the autumn wind rose, and the fallen leaves drifted away.

Sima Yi got up slowly, patted the yellow leaves on his clothes, his eyes became deep, the past could not be traced, he had no choice.

The autumn rain was blowing in his face, wetting his hair, cold and depressed, Sima Yi strode on the empty street, his eyes were full of murder, as if those dead leaves were frightened by this.

Cao Xiu was bored in the mansion, looking at the foggy city tower in a daze, when suddenly a person flashed in at the door, drifting in with a cold wind, and couldn't help but shudder.

"Strategist?" Cao Xiu was stunned for a moment, slowly got up on the table, shook his head and sighed: "In the past, Wu Zixu passed the Zhao Pass, and he was white overnight. ”

Sima Yi didn't care, walked straight to the front of the case, hugged his fists and said: "Ma Chao comes to fight every day, our army can't hold out, and he will bully me and dare not send troops. Tonight you can take advantage of the looting of the village, and you will win it all. ”

Cao Xiu was stunned: "It's raining, how to send troops?" ”

Sima Yi said: "The general also thinks that it is not possible to send troops, and if you send troops at this time, you can attack it unprepared." ”

"Zhongda Takami!" Cao Xiu got up suddenly, and said in a deep voice: "Ma Chao has a grudge with the military advisor today, Liu Qi insults the people of my clan, and tonight he can kill Ma Chao, capture Zhang Ren, and exchange hostages." ”

Sima Yi nodded slightly, and said: "The general divided his troops to attack the left and right camps, I burned the camp from the east, at this time the camp tent was damp, once it burned, it would be filled with smoke, and the drums and shouts all around, and the thieves would make trouble with each other and leave without a fight." Send another army to ambush the main road of shooting dogs, then Zhang Ren can be captured! ”

"Don't worry, the military advisor will personally arrest Zhang Ren." Cao Xiu was overjoyed and asked Sima Yi to prepare first, and ordered the generals to raise their accounts.

After this period of time, Cao Xiu respected and pitied Sima Yi, respected him for his dedication to his duties, and pitied him for losing his flesh and blood, and he couldn't help but help without Sima Yi proposing the matter of the army.

In the evening, the rain had stopped, and Cao Xiu ordered the generals Zhang Pu and Xue Qiao to lead troops to blair in the left and right camps, and led 5,000 troops from Niu Jin to ambush in the direction of shooting dogs.

In the early autumn, the weather was dry and dry, only some drizzle fell during the day, only the ground was wet, and it did not affect the march, and at night the moon and stars were scarce, Sima Yi took 3,000 soldiers, prepared firearms and sulfur, and prepared to attack the camp from the east gate.

After the third watch, Sima Yi led the troops out of the city, ordered the deputy general to go to the east gate, and led 500 troops to lurk outside the southwest gate.

The Wei army approached the gate of the camp, and the soldiers lit the fire together, and when the Han army found out about the movement, the archers had been preparing for a long time, and the fire arrows had fallen from the sky and fell into the camp together.

Taking advantage of the fact that the defenders beat drums to warn and the men and horses were in turmoil, the Wei army rushed to the front with torches, set fire everywhere, and burned countless arrow towers and camp tents.

Zhang Ren and Ma Chao in the camp heard the news and immediately led the troops to resist, but the fire at the gate of the camp burned, and the firewood and grass that were wet by the rain rose green smoke, which filled the east gate, and was blown by the night wind, so they couldn't distinguish the scenery at all, and they couldn't enter the army.

Ma Chao rushed over, covered his mouth and nose and scolded: "This must be Sima Dog Thief, he didn't dare to fight with someone, and he used tricks to sneak attack." ”

Zhang Ren was about to send someone to put out the fire, when he suddenly heard the drums outside the north and south camps, shouting and killing, and said helplessly: "The enemy army is menacing, the men and horses are panicked, and you can't fight hard." ”

"If I don't kill Sima Yi, I will not give up!" Ma Chao was furious and led 500 elite soldiers to rush through the fireworks to find Sima Yi.

At this time, Sima Yi had already taken advantage of the chaos to sneak into the camp, which was the place where the Han army hoarded grain and grass, taking advantage of the chaos to kill and disperse the defenders, the Wei army rushed to the forage room and set it on fire.

Zhang Renzheng led people to prepare to transport grain, and when he saw the fire, he knew that the general trend had gone, and ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops and lead the defeated army Wang Yewang to retreat.

Halfway through, suddenly shouts arose on both sides, and the ambush soldiers were killed, and the arrows were fired in unison, shooting down countless Han troops.

Zhang Ren was hit by an arrow in the arm and shouted, "Formation!" ”

A person blocked the road at the intersection in front of him, and shouted in a deep voice: "Zhang Ren, surrender and don't kill!" ”

"Hahaha, a certain dignified general, how can he surrender to Cao Thief?" Zhang Ren was not afraid of danger, and he shot at Cao Xiu.

Cao Xiu was furious and urged Ma to behead Zhang Ren, although Zhang Ren was hit by an arrow in the arm, his strength was not bad, and he fought with Cao Xiu for more than ten years.

But Niu Jin led the ambush soldiers to rush left and right, in recent years, the Wei army suffered many losses, morale was low, but the soldiers also held their breath, and after Sima Yi's training, they all wanted to take revenge and shame, and at this time they gained momentum, and they all struggled forward.

The Han army retreated in a hurry, the armor and weapons were incomplete, and in the face of the wolf-like Wei army, they couldn't resist at all, and they were killed on their backs.

Zhang Pu led the soldiers in the rear to chase and kill, and the Han army that followed them scattered in all directions, Zhang Ren was gradually besieged by the Wei army on the grass beach, and the surrounding soldiers gradually decreased, and the wounds on his arm flared up, and he gradually felt overwhelmed.

Cao Xiu saw that Zhang Ren's marksmanship was out of order, and shouted: "Zhang Ren, don't you want to be arrested?" ”

He didn't want to kill Zhang Ren, let alone make him surrender, so he made several moves and left his strength, ordering the soldiers to just surround him from a distance, and Zhang bowed and arrows to prevent him from escaping.

Cao Xiu's idea is very simple, he just wants to exchange the hostages for a general, whether it is Cao Ren or Xiahou Yuan, even if it is Cao Zhang, it is more useful than persuading Zhang to appoint him.

Although Zhang Ren was already at a disadvantage, his momentum was not weak at all, and he laughed and said: "Don't you hear about Xichuan, but there are decapitated generals, and there are no generals?" ”

"General Niu, shoot his mount!" At this time, Cao Xiu couldn't take care of much, and it was important to arrest people first.

"Shoot the arrows!" Niu Jin gave an order, and dozens of crossbow arrows moved in unison, shooting at Zhang Ren's war horse one after another.
