Chapter 586: Blood Debt and Blood Repayment
The Xiliang army rushed to the front of the camp on horseback, the front army released arrows, and the rear army immediately dragged sandbags, filled the trench outside the camp, and rushed into the camp.
Outside the camp, there was a fire everywhere, there was a sound of shouting and killing, the cavalry front team entered the camp, and was chasing the fleeing Wei army, when suddenly the horse lost its front hooves, the men and horses fell, and rolled into a ball.
It turned out that on the corridors of those camps, there were traps dug in the horses, and only a few passages could be passed, and the Wei army walked every day, familiar with the roads, and seemed to be in a panic, but in fact they avoided the pits.
The first batch of men and horses of the Xiliang army all fell, and the war horses could not struggle, so the soldiers fell off their horses and continued to rush forward with knives and guns.
Ma Chao led the army into the camp, ordered people to set fire everywhere, the front army opened the way, broke through many obstacles, and went straight to the Chinese army, but the Wei army was killed and scattered.
There was a great chaos in the Wei army camp, although the Xiliang army suffered a lot of casualties, but it could not be stopped at all, and advanced layer by layer, the Wei army was defeated and retreated, and the Chinese army was surrounded after more than half an hour.
Cao Xiu was walking towards the east gate, but was intercepted by Ma Dai's troops, Niu Jin told that there were no soldiers at the north gate, and took the remnants of the army to protect Sima Yi and went north.
Ma Chao saw the banner in the crowd and shouted: "Shuai is Sima Yi!" ”
When the Xiliang army heard the sound, they all rushed over, Cao Xiu was shocked, ordered people to throw away the flag, and galloped out of the north gate.
Ma Chao's horse was extremely fast, followed by a big gun, several cavalrymen screamed and fell off their horses, Cao Xiu knew that he was not Ma Chao's opponent, and turned his horse to the east.
Sima Yi glanced back at Ma Chao who was chasing, and continued to run northward, the Wei army couldn't care about each other, and ran separately, only hundreds of people followed behind Sima Yi.
"It's done!" Ma Chao was overjoyed and shouted to Ma Dai: "Brother Xian went to chase Cao Xiu, and he should be a thief." ”
"Brother, be careful!" Ma Dai called out loudly, and Ma Chao had already walked away.
was commanding the soldiers and horses to chase and kill the Wei army, chasing Cao Xiu, Pang De also led the troops to arrive, Ma Dai was not at ease, let Pang De answer Ma Chao, and led the troops to attack and repair the martial arts.
Ma Chao led more than 100 horsemen, chased and killed Sima Yi from behind, and saw how to catch up, and suddenly the Wei army left a hundred people to block the way, and the arrows were fired in unison, and the men and horses fell countless times.
Ma Chao was furious, raised his gun and stepped forward, killing more than ten people, and the rest of the Wei army was also killed by the Xiliang army, and continued to chase forward, and chased again, but he didn't realize that the east had been bright.
"Sima Xiu go!" Ma Chao shouted, put away the tiger head gun, took out his bow and arrows, and released the arrows forward.
The arrow flew out, and a Wei army fell in response, Ma Chao opened the bow left and right, and there was no false shot, and the last Wei army kept screaming and fell to the ground, so frightened that he fell to the horse and ran left and right.
Ma Chao used up a pot of arrows, and asked his soldiers to throw the quiver and continue to release the arrows, Sima Yi saw that the situation was not good, so he had to release the prepared trick in advance, and shouted: "Smoke!" ”
I saw dozens of Wei soldiers take down a bamboo tube from behind them, light it on horseback, and leave it at the end to shake it above their heads, and puffs of green smoke drifted backwards along the morning wind.
The cavalry in the front row was chasing after them on horseback, and when they smelled the smoke, they coughed violently, and it was not long before they fell down their horses with a pop and rolled in the grass unconscious.
Suddenly, the front row of cavalry fell like a rolling gourd, and the ground was full of Xiliang cavalry, and the rear army was in a hurry, trampling on it, and there were countless casualties.
Ma Chao was furious, hurriedly pulled his robe to cover his mouth and nose, led the soldiers to the side to get out of the smoke, and looked back, this time he lost more than 100 people, and regardless of whether those soldiers lived or died, he divided his troops to outflank him from the left and right.
The morning sun rose, the two groups of men and horses chased back and forth, the war horses galloped wildly, the dust was flying, although Ma Chao was fast, but he did not dare to approach the Wei army on horseback, and constantly urged the soldiers to chase closely, this time Sima Yi must not be allowed to escape.
I saw Ma Chao riding on the grass alone, commanding the Xiliang army to chase after him, and shouted while releasing arrows: "It's Sima Yi who wears a blue robe." ”
Although Sima Yi estimated that the Xiliang army was brave, he didn't expect them to be even more powerful than he imagined, these cavalry who ran on the desert grassland all the year round were like fish in water in this open land, where were the newly trained recruits comparable.
Before arriving at the ambush place, the Xiliang army chased after him again, heard Ma Chao's shouting, and hurriedly took off his robe, Ma Chao's archery was extremely accurate, and he didn't dare to be careless.
Ma Chao shot two arrows, but was blocked by the Wei army, and shouted: "The golden helmet is Sima Yi!" ”
Sima Yi turned his head to look, Ma Chao and his horse were approaching, and he was already advancing with the Wei army, and he was holding his bow and arrows, and hurriedly took off his helmet and threw it away.
Ma Chao shot an arrow, and one of the Wei soldiers fell to the ground, and when he saw Sima Yi's beard turned white, he was stunned for a moment, and laughed: "Sima old thief, you also tasted the murder of your relatives?" ”
Sima Yi gritted his teeth, did not answer, urged the horse to gallop, and the col in front of him was the ambush place, first let him be rampant for a while, and then it was the time for revenge.
"The old thief with the beard is Sima Yi, kill!" Ma Chao ran out of arrows in his hand, threw away the longbow, and picked up the gun and rushed straight at the Wei army.
"Shoot the arrows!" Sima Yi broke off his drink, and at this time, his hair bun had also been scattered, and his white hair was flying, like a demon.
The Wei army fired arrows in unison, Ma Chao danced his gun to block it, and the horse entered the Wei army, knocking over several people one after another, at this time the two armies were in a scuffle, and the archers were unable to release their arrows.
More than ten people stopped Ma Chao from fighting, but in the blink of an eye, all of them had fallen, and the Xiliang army behind them caught up and chased forward again.
The Wei army was killed by Ma Chao alone, and when he saw the army behind him chasing after him, he was so frightened that he avoided both sides and fled for his life, and there were fewer and fewer soldiers around Sima Yi.
Ma Chao looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, but at this time, he didn't chase him closely, like a cat catching a mouse, let Wei Jun escape, and laughed: "Sima Yi, today is your death!" ”
The Xiliang army has gradually dispersed the formation, such as a fan-shaped outflanking forward, this is the hunting formation, shouting and driving, while gathering, waiting for it to flee in panic, exhausted strength, can only be slaughtered.
At this time, the Wei army saw that the Xiliang army did not kill them, and they scattered and fled for their lives, leaving only Sima Yi and a few followers, just like the prey they were chasing, but it was only the last struggle.
Sima Yi looked back, the soldiers had all fled, and the horse overtook and chased closer, and he was suddenly frightened, and he panicked and rode into the mountain col.
Ma Chao followed closely and shouted, "Sima Yixiu is leaving!" ”
The Xiliang army rushed in, all rushed into the valley, and chased two or three miles on the winding mountain road, the road was rugged and narrow, and the horses could not cross, and the pursuers got closer.
Sima Yi was so frightened that he rolled off his saddle and dismounted, almost unsteady on his feet, and stumbled into the mountains and forests.
Ma Chao chased his horse to the intersection, raised his gun to kill all the entourage behind, and abandoned his horse to chase into the mountains and forests, and the Xiliang army dismounted one after another to chase.
At this moment, I suddenly heard someone shouting in mid-air: "Rest the wounded military division, release the arrows!" ”
Arrows were fired from the hillside, countless soldiers fell, and the horses were so frightened that they hid at the bottom of the cliffs, while the archers aimed at their horses and shot their mounts to death.
Sima Yi in front of him drilled out of the dense forest and sneered on the half-slope: "Ma Chaoxiaoer, you have my plan!" ”
"Retreat, kill out!" Ma Chao gritted his teeth, there were ambushes on the mountain, and the cavalry was not allowed to enter, so he had no choice but to retreat.
As soon as the words fell, I saw a team of ambush soldiers pouring out of the mouth of the valley, blocking the way, and a general raised a knife and shouted: "Ma Chao, Hebei Xian Yufan is here, come and die!" ”
