Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 373 Pursuit

Although there is only one word difference between retreat and retreat, the outcome is completely different.

Guo Shijun later succeeded Xia Houyuan in Hanzhong and wiped the slate of the war in the west. He naturally understood this.

But Liu Bei's army was on the side and might attack him at the next moment, so he really didn't dare to delay.

Shanggui and Ji County are connected by a river, and there is no danger to defend between them. Instead of the whole army being wiped out, it would be better for the strong men to have their arms cut off.

The best choice at this time is of course to leave a few soldiers in the rear to block the attack, while the others take the opportunity to escape.

Jiang Wei's troops don't have many cavalry. If they can deal with it in this way, the losses can be controlled within an acceptable range...

But among these improvised teams, which of the lagging behind would be willing to be the scapegoat?

"The Shu army is chasing after--"

"Liu Bei is coming to kill——!"

"We have many people, we can fight!"

"Damn it, can you beat the hell out of me?!"

"..."

The soldiers at the end of the team received Guo Huai's order to retreat, and saw Jiang Wei leading his army to kill them fiercely. No one had any intention of forming a formation to stop the enemy.

What's more, there were many civilians in the rear team who were responsible for escorting food, grass and baggage. In panic, they rushed into the team first, shouting words that shook the morale of the army...

Even if some people had different ideas, they were drowned in the chaos after being coerced by the large army, and they did not dare to stop and organize a counterattack.

The generals ran faster than the soldiers, those with horses whipped wildly, and those without horses abandoned their helmets... They were crowded and trampled, and the howling and screaming could not be heard.

Originally, I just abandoned the camp and the stove, but now I have abandoned all the luggage and food.

Some people with a quick mind originally thought that flags, armor, food, grass and baggage were all military achievements, and they should be able to lure the enemy to pick them up, buy themselves time, and create a glimmer of hope.

Who would have thought that the 500 Red Star troops at the front had already become accustomed to ignoring these trophies due to different methods of calculating their military merits, and had no desire to even take a look at them.

As for the other Han soldiers... their heads are much more valuable than picking up this thing?

Jiang Wei, who was leading the way, was holding the lance in his hand, accurately picking and killing the Wei soldiers in front of him. The northwest horse, which had already picked up speed, knocked the cold body away and tore apart the crowd.

The wind blowing in the face carried splashes of blood, and before the nose could smell it, the smell of blood was left behind.

"Don't leave, ordinary man! Uncle Jiang of Tianshui is coming!"

He had seen the prince's transformation of Ji County during these days, and later heard that this happened almost everywhere he went, no matter whether it was Nanzhong or the three eastern counties.

Break the old order and establish new rules.

What was not thorough in Liu Chan's eyes, and could even be called a small compromise with the times, was already a huge change in Jiang Wei's eyes.

Although the Jiang family is also a well-known family in Tianshui, they are not considered to be upper class after all.

In his opinion, what Liu Chan is doing here is narrowing the gap between the upper class and ordinary surnames, and then narrowing the gap between ordinary surnames and ordinary families.

The narrowing of the gap also means that replacement will become possible.

The resources obtained through this method can also benefit the common people.

Jiang Wei was convinced of this.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion had profoundly exposed the consequences of excessive oppression of the common people, and he was happy to see the reshuffle of different levels of groups.

The arrival of the prince was like a fresh and biting wind, blowing away the rotten stench.

"Non-mainstream" families like Jiang Wei, and even good family members, once again saw the hope of rising.

Although Jiang Wei surrendered to Liu Chan at the beginning, in his mind, he did not completely equate the current Shu Han with his "ideal former strong man".

He also needed to observe what Liu Han looked like inside, who was cloaked in a reputation for benevolence and virtue.

Now he sees it. Under the series of measures taken by Prince Liu Chan, there seems to be a plan that has not yet been revealed in its entirety and that he can no longer guess.

But he could feel from the conversation with the prince that these measures now seemed to be just the preparation.

The prince's ideal man was indeed different from what he thought. It would be a brand new man.

However, it was also worthy of Jiang Wei's bloody battle.

When he stabbed with the spear, he no longer felt as confused as when he was in Cao Wei. His thoughts were clear and his moves were natural and flowing.

While he was charging to kill, he suddenly saw a general's flag in front of him, with the word "horse" written on it.

Jiang Wei suddenly realized that he seemed to have been killed too deeply, and there were only a dozen Red Star warriors riding horses to follow him.

But seeing these people following him into the enemy army without any fear, of course, these people had never seen any battles when they followed Liu Chan.

Seeing this, Jiang Wei suddenly felt heroic.

I heard that the prince, who was surrounded by tens of thousands of troops, could easily defeat the enemy generals single-handedly.

Now that I am only chasing deserters, but I dare not kill generals and seize the flag, if the news reaches the ears of the prince in the future, won't I be ridiculed?

Thinking of this, Jiang Wei accelerated forward again, overturned several soldiers and shouted loudly: "The thief will leave! Leave your head behind!"

The person under the Chinese character "horse" is wearing a helmet, and looking at his back, he seems a little familiar.

Jiang Wei's loud shout made the man look back in horror. His trademark three-stroke beard immediately made him recognize the old acquaintance in front of him.

Isn't this Ma Zun, the prefect of Tianshui County who thought he was a traitor when he fled eastward, and then abandoned him like a pair of shoes?

"Ah!" Ma Zun obviously recognized Jiang Wei who was chasing after him at a glance. He exclaimed, hit his horse and ran away.

His intestines are now blue with regret.

If he had known this day, he might as well have taken Jiang Wei with him at that time, so as not to cause this kid to cause any big trouble.

It's great now, I'm really a traitor!

Not only did he surrender, but he also led a group of wolf-like soldiers to hunt him down.

Who knows what he was thinking when he farted in his belly button.

Ma Zun is not bad at dismounting, but it is a pity that the Sheriff has not been on the battlefield for many years, and his riding skills have long been rusty.

This whip whipped the horse, and it jumped forward. Ma Zun pulled the reins and leaned back.

Just as he was about to lift it up, he was dragged down again...

How could Jiang Wei miss this opportunity? He immediately galloped in pursuit, stabbing out his guns one after another, killing the Wei army until they were defeated and no one dared to move forward.

The defeated army in front of him suddenly split like waves, Jiang Wei rode his horse straight towards Ma Zun!

"Hmph, you usually make disrespectful remarks. Now that you are following me, are you trying to take someone's head and offer it to Liu Bei?"

Jiang Wei's father died to save the old eunuch. He grew up in Tianshui and then served in the county.

Although he did have some complaints against Cao Pi for usurping the Han Dynasty, he had never done anything to disgrace Tianshui County before.

Jiang Wei still clearly remembers the look on his face when Sheriff Ma Zun held his head high and looked at him with disdain. He said these words in a strange way, as well as his grief and anger at that time.

puff!

The spear came out of his chest, then withdrew again. Ma Zun screamed, and blood gurgled out.

Jiang Wei's men kept moving, putting away their guns and drawing knives. Before Ma Zun could fall off his horse, he galloped after him, cut off his head with one knife, tied it to the horse's neck, and drove away...

He did not humiliate Ma Zun, and even gave him a pleasant surprise.

Only people who feel aggrieved and resentful would do that, and to Jiang Wei today, Ma Zun is just "the first level".

He even felt a little emotional that if it weren't for Ma Zun, he might not have made the decision to surrender to the Han.

"Drive! Follow me and kill the enemy——!"

Jiang Wei raised his red-stained spear high, the sky was bright and the rising sun illuminated him as if he were wearing golden armor.
