Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 545
Outside the tent door, Liang Xing, Li Kan, and Candidate barged in yelling.As soon as they entered the big tent, they saw Ma Chao with a livid face, and the three immediately drew out their swords: "Ma Chao! Are you trying to murder the lord!"

Han Sui's face changed drastically. "Don't talk nonsense, put away your weapons, how decent it is!"

"My lord, Ma Chao's camp has gathered people and will surprise us at any time. He broke into your tent to murder you. Fortunately, we arrived in time..."

It's not a single mind at all, misunderstandings add misunderstandings, knots that can't be solved.With the weapon out of its sheath, how could Ma Chao hold his hand. "Old thief, don't think that no one knows about the good deeds you did in Jincheng..."

Taking advantage of other people's stunned effort, Ma Chao has already made a move, and with a cold light, Liang Xing has been hit by the sword.The candidate, Li Kan, retreated to protect Han Sui, and Han Sui shouted: "Where are the guards! Take Ma Chao down."

Ma Chao made another move, but was stopped by Candidate and Li Kan's swords, but this move was a false move, Ma Chao rushed past several people, opened the big tent with his sword, and when the guards rushed in, Ma Chao had already got out.

"Candidate, Li Kan, you two immediately lead your troops to encircle and suppress Ma Chao. I will send someone to invite Cao Cao, and my army will arrive soon!"

Candidates, Li Kan dispatched troops and generals.Han Sui ordered that the whole army withdraw immediately and retreat westward.

Ma Chao, candidates and others fought all night, and Cao Cao watched the excitement all night behind the ice wall.Candidates and Li Kan struggled to stop Ma Chao, only waiting for Han Sui and Cao Cao to rescue them, but nothing came. They were killed by Ma Chao and Pang De respectively.Ma Chao ordered Ma Dai to recruit the two men, and went to look for Han Sui himself, only then did he learn that Han Sui's army had retreated.

It was only at this time that Ma Chao realized that maybe he had really fallen into Cao Cao's trick, otherwise Han Sui would not have attacked him but retreated instead.

At this time, I heard the sound of drums in the direction of Cao Ying. Cao Chun's tiger and leopard cavalry rushed out first, and went straight to the Xiliang cavalry. After that, Zhang Liao, Zhu Ling, Li Dian, Le Jin, Cao Hong, Han Hao, and Zhao Yan were divided into seven. Way out.

The scuffle in Xiliang was already exhausted overnight, and they didn't take any precautions. They were immediately dispersed by tiger and leopard cavalry.Cao Jun followed closely behind.

On the way to retreat, Han Sui recruited Ma Wan and Yang Qiu who were stationed outside Chang'an City, and ordered them to cut off their heirs.Xiahou Dun retreated Xiliang's soldiers and horses. It was expected that Cao Cao's army had arrived, and he immediately led the army out of the city. Ma Wan and Yang Qiu were defeated.

Ma Chao and his men retreated to rescue Ma Wan and continued to flee westward, but Yang Qiu disappeared.Passing through Lantian, he was intercepted by Liu Mingxiong who was hiding in the Qinling Mountains. Ma Chao did not dare to stay, so he defeated Liu Mingxiong and went inside.

Chang'an is safe, and Cao Cao is overjoyed.He rewarded Xia Houyuan and Liu Mingxiong heavily, and sent Liu Mingxiong to continue to take over the old troops, strictly guard the main roads in the Qinling Mountains, capture the remnants of Xiliang, and personally lead the army to cross the Wei River again and approach Huaili.

"My lord, a letter from Mr. Cao Pi." Cheng Yu came to see Cao Cao in a panic. "Yuan Shao's former subordinates, Su Bo and Tian Yin, conspired against Hejian, and they have gathered more than ten thousand people!"

"Let Zihuan strictly guard the capital of Ye. Then order Hu Wuhuan Zhonglang to punish Yan Rou, and then send someone to Xianbei to order Shan Yukebi to lead three thousand cavalry to help the battle." Cao Cao didn't pay attention to the chaos of thousands of people. , rebellions occurred from time to time in various places, but this time it was relatively large, and his information was all in the northwest. "By the way, tell Zihuan again that Ma Teng is useless."

"Brother, what a happy event." Xia Houyuan and Xun You walked in with smiles. "Jincheng prefect Yan Xing sent someone to deliver a letter, and he is willing to surrender to the lord."

Xun You said: "Han Sui and Ma Chao got back together again, but they have nowhere to go, so this is the right time to hit them!"

"God help me too!" Cao Cao rejoiced, as long as Han Sui and Ma Chao were surrounded and wiped out in Huaili, the situation in the northwest would be basically stable.

"The trapped beast is still fighting, there are still tens of thousands of people in Xiliang, my lord must not be careless."

"Hehe, although they have a lot of people and lack of food and grass, we just need to trap them here, the weather is freezing, there will be chaos within a month, and when the time comes to attack them, why worry about the horses not dying and Han Sui not capturing. "

Cao Jun's morale was high, and he was only waiting for the final general attack on the Xiliang tribe.They were so proud that no one thought that Su Bo and Tian Yin were just a little spark, and their backyard would immediately catch fire.

In July, Zhou Cang was already ready for the expedition, and Yu Yi brought back Xu Sheng's secret letter, reporting that he had found a suitable landing point.Therefore, Zhou Cang released countless smoke bombs in a dazzled manner.

At the end of August, people from all walks of life had secretly gathered in Jinzhou and Donglai.Duan Muling took the initiative to fight, so Zhou Cang appointed Duan Muling as the head of the independent battalion, thus liberating Lu Xun.At the same time, Zhou Cang ordered that Lu Xun be the commander in chief for this battle.Gan Ning was a little unconvinced at the beginning, but was soon moved by Lu Xun's talent and humility. It was rare that Lu Xun's understanding of water warfare was not inferior to his own. Lu Xun also had the saber awarded by Zhou Cang, so Gan Ning had to follow.

Zhou Cang borrowed Mu Nan from Duan Muling and sent him to the northwest. Zhou Cang gave him two tasks: one was to spy on the situation in the northwest, and the other was to search for cotton seeds with Zhang Lu.He told Mu Nan not to rush back, if there is no cotton in the northwest, he can continue to search west.

In September, Lu Xun and others arrived in Donglai.Chen Dao of Jinzhou sent someone to deliver a letter, and Yuan Mai agreed to proclaim himself a former general and governor of Youzhou, and Xun Chen led Yuan Shao's former subordinates Su Bo and Tian Yin to raise troops in Hejian.After Xu Shu arrived in Jinzhou, after some conversations, Chen Dao thought that Xu Shu was more talented than himself and was not suitable for serving in the military. He was willing to give up the position of general to Xu Shu, and he only wanted to be a general.

Lu Xun admired Chen Dao's move. As the first general to follow Zhou Cang, the meritorious generals who had experienced the recovery of Xuzhou, the Battle of Runan, the Battle of Guandu, and the Battle of Liaodong were able to take the initiative to let the virtuous. How many people can do it?So Lu Xun sent someone to report to Zhou Cang, and at the same time agreed to Chen Dao's request.And what Chen Dao's actions moved the most was Gan Ning, the little bit of dissatisfaction he still had had disappeared.

Although the Chief of Staff had repeatedly deduced before departure, Lu Xun still thought about it for three days before replying to Chen Dao:
One, the twelfth of October.Su Bo and Tian Yin raised troops in Hejian to attract the troops and attention of Jizhou and Youzhou.

Two, October twenty.In the name of Yuan Mai, it was spread to Youzhou and Jizhou. On that day, Guan Hai and Liang Guang each led [-] cavalrymen from the Liaoxi Corridor to the south, and quickly attacked the Wuhuan tribes. Xu Shu, Chen Dao, Wang Ji, and Liu Zhi led three battalions to attack Youzhou. Right Beiping.

Three, October 22.Gan Ning, Xu Sheng, and Ding Feng landed in Jizhou as pioneers, and Ding Feng seized Nanpi.Gan Ning and Xu Sheng led two battalions southward to attack Liyang and occupy the gate of Hebei.He led Zhuge Dan and Duanmu Ling into Nanpi.

Fourth, Zhuge Dan went south, and after taking Liyang, Zhuge Dan and Xu Sheng stationed there.Gan Ning returned to the army and went north to attack Handan.He and Ding Feng and the independent battalion went west to Yedu.
