Sima Yi's cunning was indeed beyond Ma Yan's imagination, but he still forgot one thing.

When a manager leaves his troops, he will be incomparably vulnerable. Especially in a place like Hongnong-gun, where the mountains and forests are not well developed.

As a result, Sima Yile was extremely sad and ran into a beast.

Fortunately, this is a lone wolf, and Sima Yi escaped with difficulty after losing half his life. In the end, there were fifty or sixty people, and Sima Yi could only learn from Zhang He to climb the mountain and escape by himself.

At the same time, Ma Jian also caught up with Cao Wei's rout. On a narrow mountain road, the Han army broke the Wei army, and the Wei soldiers were captured by thousands.

But Ma Jian searched all the captives and found Sima Yi himself.

Later, Deng Fan's side also sent back the news, and after he beheaded the fake Sima Yi and defeated the Wei army, Sima Yi was also not found.

In other words, following the pursuit three years ago, Ma Jian once again let this old thief run away.

"! None of the generals of the Pseudo-Wei gang can fight, but their talent for escaping is different from ordinary people! Ma Jian was so angry that this was the second time Sima Yi had run!

Although there must be eight or nine enemy generals who slipped away from Ma Tan's hands, only Sima Yi ran away to make Ma Tan the most angry. Especially since I chased and killed you like this, and I can let you, an old artist, run away, which is the most unbearable thing for Ma Yan.

"The next time anyone sees Sima Yi, they must be killed!" Ma Jian was angry and gave an order to the whole army.

"Repeatedly, twice, repeatedly! The next time we meet, it must be Sima Yi's death! ”

"General, let's ...... next" Deng Fan scratched his head and cautiously asked about the next deployment.

Although they failed to stop all the Wei troops, most of the soldiers and horses had already broken and scattered in Hongnong County. The maximum number of troops that Guo Huai, Sima Zhao and others can take away is 10,000 people, and it is estimated that there will be no more than a few thousand people left when they reach Kanto.

Tongguan, Pubanjin, Hongnong County and other places were all occupied by the Han army. So far, the entrance to Guanzhong has been completely blocked by the Han army, and the strategic goal has been basically completed.

And Cao Shuang still has 30,000 people blocked in Pubanjin in the north, which is rotten meat in the pot, and the wings are also flying south. So it seems that the gains of this battle are still quite large, and it is time to stop.

However, Ma Jian shook his head, immediately vetoed Deng Fan's idea, and directly issued an order,

"It is advisable to chase the poor bravely, and not to sell the name of the overlord! If you don't take the opportunity to chase and kill at this moment and let the Wei army retreat to the Kwantung region safely, it will be a problem for the future Eastern Crusade! ”

"The whole army assembled, return to Hongnong to rest for a day, and continue to pursue eastward with me! By the way, inform Shu Ji and ask him to come to the meeting with my headquarters cavalry as soon as possible and pursue with the army! ”

"Be sure to break through the entire Hundred and Two Qin Pass before the Wei army escapes to Kwantung, and push the battle line to Hangu!"

"If we're lucky, maybe we can go outside Luoyang City to have a look."

The mountain road from Hongnong-gun to Hangu is the North Kui Road, which is a key communication line between Kanchu and Kanto.

This road runs side by side with the Yellow River, and all the way is a gallop road built from the Qin Dynasty onwards, and the traffic is not difficult.

The only thing that gave the Han army a headache was the pass along the way from Hongnong to Hangu. This piece of passes, known as the Hundred and Second Qin Passes, are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and if you want to gnaw down one by one, you can't catch up with the Wei army.

However, at this time, Yang Zhun volunteered and told Ma Jian that there were many guardsmen along the way who had a relationship with their Yang family. As long as he brings his Yang family's documents, many places will surrender without a fight.

At this point, Ma Jian began to march east with 3,000 cavalry and 2,000 foot soldiers. Along the way, he encountered more than ten passes, and most of them surrendered under the face of the Yang family.

Some of those who did not surrender were also killed by internal chaos when the Han army launched an attack. In the end, Ma Tan asked, and it was all the handiwork of the Yang family.

Although the smooth progress of this series made Ma Jian somewhat satisfied, he had a new understanding of the heritage of the Yang family and even the entire super-large family.

In Yizhou, the strongest family he met was just a group of plucked clans of the local faction. It wasn't until he came to Guanzhong and met the Yang family that Ma Jian understood how amazing the influence of the super-large family was.

Even if the Yang family has experienced the suppression of three generations of the Cao family and has basically been excluded from the Jiuqing sequence, it still has a huge influence at the grassroots level. Even where he can't control it, there are also a large number of family diehards, waiting to die for the family.

"These oversized families also have to have a new way to deal with them, and they can't just cut off ......" Ma Jian touched his chin and thought with a frown.

The Yang family must not be moved, he represents the investment of the entire Guanzhong clan. When Dahan is short of people everywhere, Ma Jian must also be a little more restrained.

However, Ma Tan still began to think about it, and then how to deal with those Kanto clans when he hit the Kanto. After all, as a family that has developed since the Eastern Han Dynasty and has lived to the present, they are no worse than the Yang family.

Under their many years of operation, Kanto is really called the local soil emperor.

At that time, when the Han army went east, the disposal of the Kwantung clan would become a key issue. What to do with these people, Ma Jian has already begun to think about it.

In this way, under the power of the Yang family's face, the one hundred and second Qin Guan was gnawed down almost without using soldiers. Ma Tan marched wildly along the way, and finally caught up with the Wei army near Hangu!

However, although they had already chased here, the Wei army still did not let down their vigilance. After seeing the Han army chasing and killing, Guo Huai, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly led his troops to the top.

These Guanzhong generals have long been familiar with Ma Yan's character. Especially Guo Huai, he knows very well that he can't stop Ma Jian from a long distance, and he can catch up with you thousands of miles if he wants to smoke you.

When he saw that the Guanzhong army did not cause a riot, Ma Jian was a little surprised. However, after reacting, Ma Jian strengthened his belief that he must not let these Guanzhong soldiers leave.

Otherwise, how could he suddenly attack in the future?

For a time, the Han army and the Wei army broke out again in Hangu.

At the same time, in Luoyang City, Cao Rui was seeing a doctor in the palace. The bombardment of continuous bad news in the past few years has made Cao Rui suffer from a headwind, and the severity is no worse than that of his grandfather.

"Your Majesty, your head wind is not too serious, it is okay to recuperate." After diagnosing and prescribing medicine to Cao Rui, the imperial doctor carefully instructed him.

"Recuperation? Now that the situation in Great Wei is so difficult, how can I still have the conditions to recuperate. Cao Rui smiled bitterly and said with a gentle wave of his hand to the imperial doctor.

"During this time, there was a battle report every two days, and each time it was a big defeat. In the face of this kind of battle, I don't have the mood to recuperate at all. ”

Just as he was talking, there was a sudden commotion outside the palace, and several guards hurriedly entered.

"Your Majesty! Something big happened, the Shu army sent out of the valley, and the Shu general Ma Tan led the troops to Heyin. ”

"You see, how can I recuperate in such a situation, especially since this horse has already hit the river...... Wait? Where did Ma Tan hit? ”
