Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, just want to die

Chapter 568: What Shu thieves, that’s the King of Han Dynasty
Originally, Sun Li hadn't played against Ma Su for three years, so he still hadn't gotten over it. As a result, when his subordinates reminded him, Sun Li suddenly remembered the risks of joining the party.

"I warned you before that you need to warn the Shangdang to be on high alert. Have you implemented it?"

With Sun Li looking as fearful of Shu as a tiger, several new generals who joined him looked a little helpless. They could only try their best to explain to Sun Li that they had followed his orders 100%.

"There are still 2,000 defenders in Shangdang, and there are also 3,000 elite soldiers in Huguan next door. Moreover, there are powerful tribes in the city to cooperate, so it can be said to be impregnable."

"And we have emphasized before that there may be a surprise attack by the Shu army, so we have asked them to be on high alert for twelve hours. Any enemies that seem to be out of place must be on high alert when they approach."

"So even if part of the Shu army goes around, it's impossible to achieve anything!"

After hearing the detailed explanations from the generals, Sun Li breathed a sigh of relief. But he was still very nervous. After all, Ma Su had won every battle since his debut!
At least so far, no one has been able to break the myth of his invincibility.

Sun Li was really afraid of being beaten, so he wanted to do everything, for fear of making any omissions.

"Oh... no, I still feel uneasy. I have to go to the party to see for myself!" The more Sun Li thought about it, the more he felt guilty. After repeatedly confirming that there were no big problems on the front line, Sun Li stood up and said.

If the front is defeated, these troops under his command can still retreat to Huguan. Although the losses are heavy, the entire army will not be annihilated. But if Shangdang is gone, they may all become prisoners of the Shu army.

Therefore, although the front line is important, in comparison, joining the party is still more important.

"You, sit here on my behalf. No matter what the Shu people do, you must hold on! I will personally return to Changzi County to prevent the rear from being attacked." Sun Li pondered for a while, then pointed at one of his old generals and ordered .

This old general had come back alive from Guanzhong together, and he had seen Ma Su's fighting power that was like a killing god. So by arranging an old subordinate to take charge here, Sun Li felt a little more relieved.

After ordering his old subordinates to take charge of all important affairs in Gu Yuan, Sun Li personally led more than a hundred people and ran straight to the rear along the avenue. While retreating, he had to pray that nothing would happen to the Shangdang before he went back.

Sun Li's prayer may have paid off, because at the same time, Ma Di and his vanguard camp had lost their way in the mountains and forests. After wandering around for a long time, we finally successfully entered the Shangdang Basin under the guidance of a woodcutter.

Ma Di, who got lost, was obviously not as fast as Sun Li, who took the main road to return. If nothing unexpected happened, Sun Li would have returned to the headquarters first, and then personally directed the Wei army to surprise Ma Su at the top of the city.

Late that night, in Changzi County, Shangdang County Office,
"It's midnight, and we still have to patrol here. It's really torturous!" An officer from a wealthy family held a torch and cursed while inspecting the soldiers' posts at the top of the city.

"How long will this damn war last? Do they have to die in the capital of Guizhou before they are willing to stop?"

"We are not qualified to say anything about this. It's all the orders from above. What else can we do except follow orders." The fellow villager next to him shrugged and said helplessly.

"You two, you are not patrolling seriously, what are you whispering to each other!" At this time, a senior officer suddenly appeared like a ghost, looked at the two of them and scolded them.

"Hey... Master!" The two tribesmen were shocked, and after seeing clearly, they quickly saluted.

"How many times have I told you, when on patrol, you must show your duty!"

"Uh... Colonel Zhang!"

This time, the officer's expression softened after he was called the right one, and then he patted the two of them on the shoulders.

"Okay, you two, stop complaining. There is nothing we can do about this war. But as long as we patrol and prepare carefully, it is possible to end the war early."

"Oh……"

"No, I'm serious." The captain waved his hand and said to the two of them.

"General Sun told us before he left that this time the Shu bandits' general Ma Di is likely to bypass the front line and come to Zhangzi County for a sneak attack. And he is the core of the Western Shu army. Without him, the Shu bandits' tribe will be abolished. Lost half of it!”

"So you all patrol carefully. If there is anything wrong, take action immediately. Kill first and interrogate later! As long as the leader of the thief, Ma Su, is killed, our army of Wei Dynasty can regain the lost territory with overwhelming force."

"Even if there is a war by then, it won't be in Bingzhou, and we can all go home!" They were powerful local soldiers who were recruited by the imperial court to defend the city. If the war hadn't spread to their hometowns, it would be impossible for these rural soldiers to be willing to accept such a call.

Even if I accept it now, I still feel very resentful. Now that they heard that there was a chance to end the war early, everyone regained their spirits.

But at this moment, one of the officers suddenly asked,
"By the way, Lieutenant Colonel, do you still remember how General Sun described the Shu army's surprise attack?"

"Ah? He comes and goes like the wind, moves quickly, is fierce and murderous... Why do you ask this?"

"Look over there, it seems like the Sichuan bandits are coming!" As he said this, the officer pointed his hand and saw a group of figures holding torches from the north running towards here at an extremely fast speed!

"Holy shit! If you talk about Shu thieves, Shu thieves are here! Be alert! Send the archers up!" Suddenly, the captain lost his composure and yelled hastily.

Ma Di, who was rumored to be a murderer before, is now really here!
Because of the advance warning, a large number of wealthy tribes had already moved to the city wall in advance. After hearing the warning, all the rural soldiers immediately picked up their weapons and rushed to the city.

At the same time, outside Changzi County, Sun Li and a hundred personal guards worked hard and finally ran back. When he saw the Wei army flag flying above the city of Changzi County from a distance, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Shangdang is still safe, fortunately!"

Before Sun Li could finish breathing, he saw a large number of soldiers and horses suddenly pouring out of the city.

He felt very satisfied with this. It seemed that he had worried too much. The Shangdang defenders were still very vigilant. If you continue to maintain this spirit, Ma Su will definitely be shot into a hedgehog when he comes!

However, before Sun Li could finish his emotion, he saw the defenders on top of the city raising their bows and arrows and aiming at him!

"Wait! I seem to have forgotten something!"

At this time, Sun Li suddenly remembered that he had not notified him in advance of returning to the party. And it's late at night, which means the defenders in the city don't even know he's back!
"Wait! Don't shoot the arrow! I am Sun..."

"The Shu thieves are shouting! Fire arrows quickly!!"

Unfortunately, before Sun Li could finish his words, the extremely nervous tribe of wealthy people had already fired their arrows. In just an instant, countless arrows poured down, quickly heading towards Sun Li!

At the last moment when he was overwhelmed by the rain of arrows, Sun Li only had time to shout out his last words.

"grass!"

The rain of arrows in Changzi County lasted for a long time, and the defenders only stopped after confirming that all the comers were shot to death.

Then, when they went out of the city at dawn to confirm the victory, the whole place was eerily silent.

"Colonel Captain..."

"Don't call me a lieutenant. I am the head of your family, not a lieutenant of the Wei Kingdom."

"Master, we seem to have killed the wrong person."

"I'm not blind! I can see!" The wealthy family head almost broke his teeth.

Your damned dignified General Zhenxi doesn't lead the troops on the front line honestly, why does he come back alone late at night! !

"Then how should we deal with the Shu thieves next..."

"What Shu thief! Wherever there is a Shu thief, that is our Han Dynasty's Master Wang! Go and get ready, we Shangdang Han people need to welcome Master Wang!"
