Ma Chao was irritable, and suddenly caught a glimpse of two thinner people standing under the handsome banner and among the enemy soldiers, looking at him on the horse tremblingly, Ma Chao handed over the silver gun to Ma Dai to hold, and he stretched out his hands to catch the two thinner enemy soldiers, and asked: "Where are Han Wenyue and Cheng Gong Boying?" ”

The two shook their heads nervously, but they couldn't say a whole sentence.

Ma Chao saw that the two of them were so nervous that they couldn't speak, and he was impatient, so he threw the two of them heavily on the ground. The two men got up from the ground, and as soon as they smoked, they ran into the enemy line and disappeared.

Ma Dai handed Ma Chao the silver spear and said, "Brother, if you are encircled, it will be over sooner or later, not to mention that these enemy soldiers are always firing cold arrows, which is very dangerous." I can't find Han Sui and Cheng Gongying left and right, so it's better to quit! ”

Ma Chao said: "Okay, you go and cut down Han Sui's handsome flag, let's go." ”

Ma Dai answered, and then he waved his gun and knocked over the handsome flag, took the handsome flag, and threw it at the enemy formation, killing several unlucky ghosts, and in this way, frightened the enemy formation into a separate way. Ma Chao and Ma Dai followed this road, fought into the enemy formation, and soon came to the Great Wall of Camels. At this section of the Great Wall of Camels, more than a dozen camels have died and fallen to the ground. Ma Chao and Ma Dai's war horses are unique BMW horses, and the two jumped up and jumped out of the Great Wall of Camels.

The two people who were picked up by Ma Chao were Han Sui and Cheng Gongying. After Ma Chao and Ma Dai broke out of the encirclement and jumped out of the Great Wall of Camels, the two breathed a sigh of relief, but they were still trembling. It wasn't until they couldn't see Ma Chao and Ma Dai that the two dared to take off their clothes and put on their clothes and armor again. And their soldiers dared to let go of their trembling hands and no longer hold their swords and guns.

As Ma Chao and Ma Dai returned safely from the enemy formation, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry erupted in enthusiastic cheers.

"The two brothers are really ten thousand enemies, rushing into the enemy formation, the enemy soldiers are obviously ten thousand times more than the two brothers, but they only hold weapons, and they dare not get close to the two brothers by half a step!" Zhang Xiu said enviously.

Yan Xing also said: "The most ridiculous thing is that the enemy soldiers are so frightened that their hands holding the bow and crossbow tremble, and they can't even shoot two of them with an arrow!" ”

Cheriji also smiled: "It can be seen that what our Qiang people say is true, the young master is really powerful!" ”

Ma Chao and Ma Dai smiled: "It's just that the enemy soldiers are weak and can be bullied." ”

Ju Yi asked: "Since General Dai has cut down the enemy's marshal banner, have you ever met Han Sui and Cheng Gongying?" ”

Ma Dai shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that the two of them are very frightened, probably dressed up as soldiers, sneaking into the enemy group, in the dark night, it is difficult to identify." ”

Jia Xu also said: "It should be so, otherwise Han Sui and Cheng Gongying will never disappear into the enemy formation out of thin air." ”

When Ma Chao heard this, he was surprised: "Are you saying that the two of them must be dressed as ordinary soldiers?" ”

Jia Xu said: "It must be so." ”

Ma Chao remembered the two enemy soldiers he had captured and released just now, and said, "Fang Caiwu captured two enemy soldiers, and those two were very thin and short. ”

Jia Xu was slightly surprised and said, "After this battle, Han Sui lost 5,000 horsemen, and only 20,000 horsemen remained. Han Sui valued the 20,000 cavalry that had been retained from the Battle of Caohan, and would order the new pawns to rush to the front. Therefore, the remaining 20,000 horsemen must be the remaining 20,000 horsemen in the battle of Caohan. Those 20,000 horsemen were the elite of Han Sui's army, all of them were tall and powerful, and there were no thin and short people. ”

Ma Chao said in surprise: "You mean, the two people I caught under the Shuai Banner may be Han Sui and Cheng Gongying?" ”

Jia Xu said firmly: "Those who are under the banner of Shuai must be Han Sui's personal guards." The pro-guards are more elite, and it is impossible for Han Sui to choose thin and short people to be pro-soldiers. Therefore, those two must be Han Sui and Cheng Gongying! ”

Ma Dai also said: "Yes, brother, think about it, my two brothers will soon rush under the banner of Shuai, and they will definitely not have much time to flee to the deeper and farther enemy formation. They are most likely to lie dormant under the banner. ”

When Ma Chao heard this, he regretted it. Han Sui and Cheng Gongying were right under his nose, he didn't even recognize the two, it was too dark this night, and he didn't bring a torch. If there is a torch, or if he has better eyesight, he will be able to solve all problems completely tonight.

Jia Xu said: "But the young master doesn't have to regret it too much, our army defeated Han Sui's army again tonight, and Han Sui tried to break the siege again, and there is not much chance." ”

Ma Chao sighed and said, "Okay, since our army has achieved the goal of preventing Han Sui's army from breaking through, this is enough." Han Sui's army failed to break through the siege twice, and its morale must be low, and he did not dare to risk breaking through the siege again. Zhang Xiu! ”

"The last general!"

"You will take 10,000 horsemen to watch Han Suijun."

"Yes!"

Ma Chao took the rest of the people to the camp to repair.

………………………………………………

The next day, Ma Chao first inspected the camel fortress of the Han Sui army, and found that Han Sui actually collected the corpses of the Han Sui soldiers and horses on the battlefield overnight, and used them to strengthen the camel Great Wall that was very damaged last night. With thousands of corpses and more horses, the Great Wall of Camels was made taller and thicker. After the pile of corpses, the cavalry of Han Sui's army withstood the stench of corpses and held on nervously.

Ma Chao knew that in order to delay the time of complete defeat, Han Sui had gone completely crazy. Otherwise, he would never have been so miserable as to use corpses as material for his camp. You must know that these corpses belong to his own soldiers. This method is effective, but it is very inferior.

Ma Chao was even more disdainful, because corpses would always rot, and using corpses to surround the camp would sooner or later infect the soldiers of Han Suijun. Maybe before the water was drunk and died of thirst, the soldiers of Han Suijun had to die of illness first.

Ma Chao decided to continue to hold on, anyway, there will always be a moment when Han Sui can't stand it. At that time, in addition to surrendering, Han Sui had only the only way to kill himself.

Ma Chao returned to the camp from the front of the battle, and when he went to the camp tent, he saw that Jia Xu was standing in front of the map, carefully studying the map, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Ma Chao said to himself: "Wenhe, Han Wenyue uses corpses as a siege, have you seen it?" ”

Jia Xu looked at the map quietly, and did not turn to face Ma Chao, saying, "I see." Young master, do you know what this means? ”

Ma Chao said: "Of course I know. Han Sui was already at the end of his rope, otherwise he would not have made such a decision, because he really had no choice. The two carefully prepared routs fell into failure, and if they did not break out again, the fresh water would be drunk, and they could only drink horse blood; After drinking the horse's blood, everything is over. ”

Jia Xu was still looking at the map, and Ma Chaofang felt that Jia Xu was a little abnormal, because he looked directly at the Western Regions next to Liangzhou on the map, and he didn't look at the land west of Hexi.

Jia Xu looked at the map directly, without even looking away. He said lightly: "Han Sui also knows this, but he is always unwilling to surrender. Who? Because it was the young master who was going to surrender, he didn't want to surrender. ”

Ma Chao said confidently: "I'm afraid that right now, Han Sui is fighting fiercely in his heart, and he is struggling with whether to surrender." I think he will probably surrender, except after surrendering, his second choice is to kill himself; The third is to lead the army to make a final breakout, and after defeat, he is beheaded. I can't think of any other option for him. ”

Jia Xu suddenly said thoughtlessly: "Then what if, Han Sui has a fourth choice?" ”

Ma Chao was surprised and said, "The fourth? So what's the choice? ”

Jia Xu slowly turned around and faced Ma Chao with an elusive smile on his face, which made Ma Chao feel a little panicked.

Jia Xu said leisurely: "His fourth choice is not to surrender!" ”

Ma Chao was confused when he heard it, and said, "Don't surrender? Why? Can he still turn defeat into victory? ”

Jia Xu still had that elusive smile on his face, and said, "Turning defeat into victory? No way. ”

Ma Chao was even more confused when he heard it, and said in surprise: "Then what do you mean?" ”

Jia Xu said with a smile: "If the subordinates say that the subordinates can make Han Sui not surrender to the young master, but he can make contributions to the young master and dedicate a large piece of territory, will the young master believe it?" ”

Ma Chao looked confused and said, "Where is this?" What exactly do you mean? And where is the territory? I don't understand a word of you. ”

"Territory? This is it! Jia Xu pointed at his hand and poked the map with his finger.

Ma Chao looked over, "Western Regions? What's going on in the Western Regions? ”

Seeing that Ma Chao was still confused and puzzled, the smile on Jia Xu's face became more and more unpredictable and unfathomable.

…………………………………………

On this side, Han Sui sat on the steps of the Chinese army's marshal flag. Han Sui sniffed the rancid smell wafting in the air, and after enduring it for a long time, he finally couldn't help retching.

Cheng Gongying hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up and get some water for the lord!" ”

Zhang Heng handed over a leather bag, Cheng Gongying twisted the cork, and handed it to Han Sui.

Han Sui picked up the skin bag and blew it on his mouth, but he didn't drink half a mouthful of water, and no matter how much he sucked it, he couldn't drink half a drop of water. Han Sui lifted the skin bag and shook it twice, only then did a drop of water fall from the mouth of the skin, drip into the desert under his feet, evaporate, and disappear.

Han Sui sighed and threw away the skin bag helplessly. When he raised his head to look, Han Sui saw that many soldiers were looking at him who had just drunk the water, swallowing their saliva. All the soldiers, all of whom were scorched, withered, and weak, had not drunk water for a whole day.

This made Han Sui even more desperate, and his head hung even lower.

"Is there any water? Bring it to the lord? Cheng Gongying shouted anxiously.

Zhang Heng looked helpless and said: "Sir, there is really no water, just that half of the water, or the last general made up a few skins to save it." ”

Cheng Gongying said dissatisfiedly: "There are still skins on so many corpses, don't you know how to get them?" ”
