For this attack on Wudu County, Ma Chao has already made a plan in his heart.

The primary goal is to rely on the suddenness of the attack and the mixed information of truth and falsehood to undermine the enemy's morale and psychology.

The best result is like Hechi County, which makes the other party surrender on its own initiative without bloodshed.

In fact, if Wudu Taishou was not this Yang Fu, he was afraid that he would be suddenly attacked by the Han army at this time, and then heard the news of Liu Bei's large-scale northern expedition, perhaps it would have fallen like a river pond at this time.

It's a pity that Yang Fu is not only a hard bone, but also has a mortal enmity with him Ma Chao, and now it is absolutely impossible to surrender.

Ma Chao can order the next group of people who are ready to step forward and continue to bang on the door.

The Han infantry was ordered to continue to climb the city walls and put pressure on the defenders in other directions.

But he didn't know how long it would take for the enemy's gates to crash open, or what was going on behind them.

The hatred for Yang Fu did not blind the eyes of the current Han hussar general, although he wanted to rush into the city now to break Yang Fu's body into pieces, but he didn't want to exchange it for a crushing victory.

"The population of the Han Dynasty is limited, and if you want to pry the behemoth of Cao Wei, you have to be careful with your calculations. Even if you are not afraid of death, you must die in a place where there is enough value. ”

- This is what the prince said when he was chatting with him, and Ma Chao thought it was true.

Xia Zhi, and even the entire Wudu, have not been placed in the eyes of Ma Chao who conquered the northwest again.

This is not the end of his battle, he wants to use a beautiful victory to let the entire Great Northwest know that Ma Mengqi is back!

Following.

Ma Chao's army is in a large battalion.

"Thou shalt lead thy troops to besiege the city here, and send men from all directions to take turns guarding it day and night, and thou shalt not let a man go."

In the Han army tent, Ma Chao admonished his marching Sima.

"Yes, please rest assured, the subordinates know."

"Don't attack the city without permission before I return, if the siege force is greatly damaged, you must ask!" Ma Chao said emphatically.

Marching Sima clenched his fists and bowed his head: "Yes, the subordinates will definitely act cautiously." ”

Ma Chao arranged the affairs of the army, and left the main infantry to continue the siege, while he led his own soldiers and 100 horsemen to leave the camp with a swagger.

Regarding Ma Chao's move to leave the camp with his own soldiers, Yang Fu and other defenders all saw it, but he had nothing to do about it.

With this little bit of men and horses under his command and his martial arts, wanting to sneak out of the city is purely to send him to death.

On the first day of the siege, although the defenders under his command did not suffer any actual casualties, the dangerous defensive process on his side still dealt a big blow to the momentum of the defenders.

And not everyone wants to live and die with Yang Fu in general.

If it weren't for Ma Chao's true notoriety, and Taishou had an enmity with him, he would probably be slaughtered after breaking the city, and some people would already want to surrender.

"Make the king ......" Yang Fu's Wudu said worriedly, "Today, if Ma Chao is a little tempted, we will almost ......break the city."

"Huh?" Yang Fu's blood-red eyes narrowed, "You want to surrender that thief?!" ”

Don't drive glanced at Yang Fu's tightly clenched hilt, his heart sank, and he smiled bitterly: "Ma Chao has always been notorious, can I make a living if I surrender him?" ”

Yang Fu saw that he didn't seem to want to surrender, so he calmed down a lot, and his hand holding the sword relaxed slightly.

"Envoy, there is Yinping in the west of Wudu, and there is Qishan Fort in the north, so it is impossible for Ma Chao to come alone. I'm afraid that what he said before is true......"

Yang Fu stared at him with both eyes and said lightly: "So what?" ”

"Hey." Wudu Bei took two steps forward and said sincerely, "Envoy, I am a dignified man, I always have the ambition to serve the country, even if I die today, what are I afraid of?" How could you vote for that shameless man! ”

Yang Fu's expression eased completely, let go of his hand, and sighed lightly: "Alas, it's a pity that not everyone thinks like you and me." ”

He also knew the pessimism that permeated the corporal stroke.

Don't be busy: "The current morale is low, and it is because the soldiers think that the reinforcements have been cut off. We are trapped in the city, and we know nothing about the outside world, and the soldiers will not be able to hold on for long without hope.

"Why don't I send someone out of the city at night, as soon as I come to investigate the current situation, if what Ma Chao said is not true, I can move in time to rescue the soldiers! Even if you bring back real news, it will definitely boost morale. ”

When Yang Fu heard this, he was also a little moved.

Don't see his hesitant expression, his face sank and he said: "If the rescue is really cut off, both directions have fallen...... If you go out of the city to investigate and return, you can also trick the soldiers into saying that help is coming, so that they will wait with us to defend it!

"Even if Sheyang Pavilion Marquis (Guo Huai) is blocked and desperately insisted, it may not be impossible to drag General Zhang to Guanzhong to rush to reinforcements!"

Yang Fu said movingly: "What Mr. said is very true, Yang Fu was furious, but he almost missed a big thing...... But there are Han soldiers outside, who is worthy of this position? ”

Don't drive your fists and say: "Don't drive the king to make me a martial capital, I am often grateful for the kindness of the king, and I can't repay it." I am willing to lead more than ten people who dare to die, take advantage of the night to go out of the city, and this will definitely kill the siege and live up to the king! ”

"Sir!" Yang Fu held his hands emotionally, "Take care!" ”

"Take care of you, and wait here for good news. Certain...... Go too! Don't just get up and leave, your back is resolute, and you seem to see death as if you are home.

On that day, he picked more than a dozen brave soldiers, each of whom picked a fast horse, and prepared ten days of dry food.

When the sun set and the night was getting thicker, the group opened the door slightly under Yang Fu's moving gaze and sneaked out while the night was dark.

After Nawudu drove out of the city, he turned to the northwest with his people and rushed at full speed!

As long as you bypass the Han army camp in front of you, you can go from the path to Qishan, even if Qishan Fort is really surrounded by the main force of the Han army, you can continue to go north along the path.

Bypassing Qishan Fort and turning northeast, it will be safe to reach Shangtai City!

Galloping at full speed at night can be much more dangerous than driving on the road at night in later generations.

The torches in their hands couldn't shine too far, but they couldn't take care of that much at this time, and it was important to flee for their lives before the Han army found out.

"Hey, you old man wants to defend it so much, then you can die by yourself, I haven't lived enough!"

Wudu Beijia, who rode out of the city, showed a disdainful sneer on his face, whipped the horse, and let out a low shout: "Drive!" ”

He is still young and strong, even if his wife and children in the city are lost, he has food and money, but he is worried about not having a wife and a beautiful concubine? When the time comes, it's time to regenerate.

You have a grudge against that Ma Chao, and I don't, why should I pay you to die together?

Loyalty...... Compared with his own life, loyalty is a fart!

The madman will go back again.

Woo –

However, at this moment, a horn sounded.

Then many torches were lit up in the Han army camp, and the camp was like daylight!

"The enemy has broken through! Meet the enemy, meet the enemy! ”

As the shouts sounded, the soldiers in the barracks who were waiting for the day immediately rushed out with weapons in hand.

After Ma Chao left, his marching army divided the soldiers into three groups according to the order.

The group with the smallest number of people took turns to be on duty for the night, and some of the soldiers could sleep, but they needed to keep their hands and armor on their bodies.

Most of the rest of the soldiers were able to sleep peacefully, and the three groups rotated daily to improve their reaction speed to deal with the situation.

The torches of Wudu Beijia and others were extremely conspicuous in the dark night, and they were discovered by the Han army on duty not long after leaving the city.

It's just that this black light is blinding, and the Han army doesn't know how many men and horses have come out of the city, for fear that there will be a mistake, the marching Sima immediately ordered to intercept, encircle and suppress!

Even ordered someone to push out the crossbow, this thing has a long enough range, and it is ten arrows scattered, if you are lucky, it should be able to cause a lot of damage to the enemy "brigade" that kills it.

The crossbow bolt was hurriedly loaded, and the Han army fired it in the direction of the torch movement without saying a word!

They even adjusted the angle and direction based on their previous experience to make predictions.

Wei Yan and Ma Chao's Hanzhong Army, although not as elite as the Red Star Army, are both good at leading troops, and the quality of the soldiers is definitely not bad.

Bang ——!

Several crossbows roared and shot out of the specially made thick crossbow arrows, and dozens of crossbow arrows flew into the darkness at once.

In the distance, there seemed to be the sound of people shouting and neighing.

The marching Sima did not dare to be careless, and immediately ordered the troops to outflank and encircle and suppress, and two more rounds of shooting were carried out on the way.

He was afraid of the enemy's plan to attack the east and west, so he ordered the camps in other directions to be stationed in place.

Anyway, even if the enemy army pours out, as long as it doesn't even rush out with the people, it will only be hundreds of soldiers, and in the field, these people are enough to deal with.

As a result, when the overly cautious marching Sima led the soldiers forward to investigate, the scene in front of him made him speechless.

In this area surrounded by Han troops, there were only less than thirty corpses scattered around...... Half of them were horses.

Some of the horses, which had not been shot by the repeater, but had been shot by the arrows of ordinary bows and arrows, were still lying on the ground neighing in pain because of their sturdy physique.

As for the dozen or so people...... All of them were hit by several arrows, and they were cold.

The most unlucky thing is that Na Wudu is not driving, at this time his head was opened, half of his head was missing, and his face was no longer recognizable...... Apparently unlucky, he took the head and took the crossbow with an arrow.

Now, he really never had to go back......
