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

Chapter 631 You don’t want to die

At this time, Sima Yi was still relieved that he had stubbornly blocked Ma Di's offensive. In particular, the current Han army does not seem to be as ferocious as it was in attacking the city in Kansai, and the momentum of the attack is not as fierce.

If the Han army could maintain this level of offensive, Sima Yi believed that he could hold on until reinforcements arrived.

"Speaking of which, where did Guanqiu Jian and Yang Hu go? Didn't they come back from Xiangping a month ago?" Sima Yi turned to look at his confidants and asked softly.

Sima Yi's confidant was not a personal guard, but also a director of the school affairs office. Facing Sima Yi's question, he immediately cupped his hands and replied,
"Envoy, it is reported that the Liaodong Army has passed Yijing and will arrive in Nanpi soon. In ten days at the latest, 30,000 Liaodong Army can enter the battlefield."

"Very good, what about Qingzhou's army?"

"There is no news yet. It seems that Shizhong Cao suppressed our transfer order and prevented the Qingzhou Army from participating in the war."

"Oh..." Sima Yi nodded expressionlessly, not commenting on this.

"That's it, be on alert and prepare to defend the city as much as possible. As long as he can hold on until the Liaodong Army arrives, Ma Su will have no choice but to face his first major defeat in history!"

Although he said this, Sima Yi actually didn't have much confidence in guarding Linqiu...or he didn't even have much interest.

Several crossbow arrows struck a dozen steps in front of Ma Su with great accuracy. Several soldiers were shot before they could dodge, and their blood even splashed on Ma Su's face.

Sure enough, Sima Yi soon saw that familiar figure in front of the Han army's formation. Thousands of Han soldiers defended Ma Su with high morale and marched towards the head of Linqiu City in an orderly manner!
Why can you tell it's Ma Su at a glance? Because this guy never hides his identity. Even if he was the first to attack the city in person, he was still wearing white clothes and armor, and he looked like a coquettish person who was trying to sell out the enemy.

This resulted in that although he caught the Shu army by surprise, there were currently too few troops to mobilize. There are only four thousand defenders in Linqiu. Even if they can be defended, the gains outweigh the losses.

"It's broken! Where is Ma Di's flag?" Sima Yi looked at the direction of the Han army's central army and immediately discovered the clue.

"Give me the aiming point. I won't take it lightly if I accidentally injure the other party!"

The next day, the Han army launched another offensive against Linqiu. But this time, before the attack came, Sima Yi felt his right eyelid twitch wildly.

Sima Yi came to Linqiu this time alone. With the Shu army's intelligence network, it was impossible for him to keep it a secret even with a little force.

Sima Yi also had a plan for the situation where Ma Di personally climbed up first. After pondering for a moment, he immediately turned around and ordered.

So now, although Sima Yi is shouting loud slogans, he actually has a new plan.

This incident shocked Ma Zhong, and he quickly pulled Ma Su to try to escape.

"Shijun avoids arrows! Wei Jun is on the crossbow!"

Since he was planning the selling price, Sima Yi would naturally not engage in any enmity. His plan was to use the bed crossbow to scare Ma Su away.

"Get on the crossbow! Aim in front of the general in white armor and shoot! Be sure to let him know that we can shoot him."

Ma Di had been flying the flag of the Chinese Army a while ago, but now it suddenly disappeared! Based on Sima Yi's rich experience in fighting against Ma Su in Kansai, he basically understood what this meant.

Soon, Wei Jun's bed crossbow was moved up, and veterans started to take aim. After some calibration, several crossbow arrows flew down and landed in front of Ma Su!
"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"

"Damn it! Ma Su is coming for me!"

"Afraid of shit!"

Ma Su shook off Ma Zhong out of complete conditioned reflex, then subconsciously took off his helmet and threw it to the ground.

"How can I be afraid of the Wei army as a great general of the Han Dynasty? What's more, the old thief Sima doesn't dare to attack me, so there is nothing to be afraid of!" "The whole army continues to move forward, Linqiu City must be captured today!"

After saying that, Ma Su retreated instead of advancing. With his head held high, he personally stepped forward and pushed the ladder forward.

Ma Su refused to retreat and gave the Han soldiers who were attacking the city a huge bonus. All the soldiers knew that the general of the dynasty had once again climbed with them first after many years.

This kind of morale bonus is even much higher than that in Kansai in the past. After all, Ma Su was not a general at that time.

For a time, the morale of thousands of Han soldiers was high, and they all imitated Ma Di and pushed forward without fear of death.

Unlike the high morale of the Han army, Sima Yi could not be defeated by Ma Su.

No...you don't want your life!

He fired the crossbow arrows in front of Ma Su, and the warning was extremely obvious. As a result, Ma Su not only did not retreat, but moved forward even more joyfully!
Is this because you're afraid that he won't be able to shoot to death?
"Keep shooting arrows! Deter him!" Sima Yi narrowed his eyes, already having a bad premonition in his heart.

Under his deployment, the Wei army in Linqiu began to fire arrows at the Han army continuously. There were constant arrows falling around Ma Su, but they did not scare Ma Su at all.

On the contrary, Ma Su became more and more intimidating and reckless. Faced with the rain of arrows, he wanted to take off all his armor and go into battle naked.

Looking at this posture, Sima Yi suspected that this bastard was just here to seek death.

"Young Ma Su, you are really not afraid of me doing it, are you? You're the one who sells the goods like this!" Sima Yi was so angry that his teeth itched, and Ma Su looked so coquettish that he really wanted to order him to be shot to death.

"Lieutenant, why should we take action?" a confidant asked at the right time.

"Don't move! Let Ma Su come up!" Sima Yi waved his hand and said without hesitation.

Regarding Sima Yi's attitude, his confidants couldn't help but roll their eyes. I don’t blame the other party for being fearless. Taiwei, you have such an attitude of sitting on the fence. If Ma Su is afraid, there is something wrong with him.

However, Sima Yi didn't care about this, but looked at the massive Han army outside the city and murmured to himself,

"Speaking of which, such a long time should be enough..."

At the same time, the Han army also pushed the ladder to the wall. With Ma Su taking the lead, countless Han soldiers attacked the city and launched a fierce attack on the head of Linqiu City.

"Anyone who stands in my way will die!" Ma Di took the lead on the top of the city and swung his gun to knock the Wei soldiers in front of him to the ground.

Subsequently, the Han army followed Ma Di and rushed to the top of the city, and started a fierce battle with the Wei soldiers who came for support.

After reaching the top of the city, Ma Su quickly discovered something was wrong. Because most of the soldiers he fought against were not regular soldiers of the Wei army wearing armor, but were rural soldiers from Xianglinqiu.

However, these rural soldiers were not afraid of death and launched a counterattack against the Han army without fear of casualties. It was precisely because of the stubborn resistance of the local soldiers that even if the Han army climbed to the top of the city, they still could not move forward.

"It seems that there is still a long way to go to govern Guandong." Ma Di couldn't help but sigh slightly as he looked at this scene.

The fact that the Kanto clan was able to gather so many private soldiers and achieve a symbiotic bond with the tenant farmers showed that the government's control over the local area was greatly reduced.

If the imperial court still had control over local areas, how could these local right-wingers be able to gather so many private soldiers?
