Three Kingdoms: I ran for my life all the way, but was forced to become the master of this world!

Chapter 263

"Big brother, this is a crossbow!" exclaimed Ma Dai.

"Even a crossbow?" Ma Chao was also taken aback, how could this Han army have a crossbow! Looking carefully, I saw the Han soldiers, while rushing forward, firing crossbow arrows, obviously the strange thing in his hand was a crossbow.

Those crossbowmen of the Western Liang Army did not have time to put their arrows on the strings, so they were shot. In front of the Great Array, Hou Xuan and Yang Qiu were already dead and wounded.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Ma Chao's mouth, and then he shouted, "Withdraw!" Pound

seemed to have been ready to withdraw his troops for a long time, and the Western Liang army quickly left the battlefield.

"Yuan Jian, this horse is running too fast, shall we chase or not?" asked Zhou Cang.

"No need to chase, General Deng gave us an order to take the street pavilion, Ma Chao only had that few soldiers and horses left, he couldn't stay in Longxi!" Liao Hua shook his head.

There were no casualties among the Han army, but there were too many corpses here, and the battlefield was cleared until night.

Deng Ai led an army of 10,000 people through Xiaoguan, and after Beidi County, he came to Tianshui. But I didn't expect that Ma Play Yang Qiu was stationed in Anding, and if he attacked, it would inevitably alarm Zhao Jian of Tianshui and Du Raid of Jieting, and even if he took Anding, it would be difficult to capture Tianshui Jieting, because the defenders of these two places were five thousand.

When the news of the great victory of Chencheng came, Deng Ai immediately thought of a strategy, so he asked people to spread rumors to Longxi and Longyou, saying that the Han army had captured Chen Cang, the back road of the Cao army had been broken, and Han Sui of Jincheng was ready to send troops to attack Tianshui and Jieting.

After Ma Chao learned the situation, he immediately joined forces with Cheng Yin, Hou Xuan, Yang Qiu, and Ma Play to send troops, because Tianshui used to belong to their Ma family, how could he let it be given to Han Sui?

Ma Chao and others fought a fierce battle with Zhao Jian and Du Zhao, but they didn't know that the praying mantis was catching cicadas, and after Huang Que was behind, Deng Ai took Tianshui and Street Pavilion without bloodshed. Although Ma Chao returned to Longxi at this time, he only had more than 3,000 soldiers and horses left. Moreover, Anding and Longyou have also become empty cities, which is extremely beneficial to Deng Ai.

Deng Ai asked people to hurry up and send the battle report of Tianshui to the lord Liu Jun, and at the same time, Ling Liao Hua led 3,000 soldiers and horses to garrison Tianshui, and he led Zhou Cang and the rest of the army to Longxi.

In Longxi Taishou Mansion, Ma Chao summoned Ma Dai, Pang De, Yang Fu, Jiang Xu and others to discuss countermeasures.

"Deng Ai led his army to attack Longxi, do you have a way to retreat from the enemy?" asked Ma Chao with a gloomy face.

"General, Deng Ai has seven thousand soldiers and horses, and the combat power is very strong, we only have three thousand soldiers and horses!

"Bo Yi, Hugh wants to grow the morale of others and destroy his own prestige!" Ma Chao's voice was very cold.

"What Bo Yi said is not to destroy his own prestige, but the truth!" Yang Fu was extremely dissatisfied with Ma Chao's behavior, the battle of the street pavilion, although they were calculated by Deng Ai, but Ma Chao obviously borrowed a knife to kill, so that Cheng Yin, Yang Qiu, Hou Xuan, Ma Play and others died in battle, "Longxi can't hold it at all, and now there are only two roads in front of us, either withdraw or surrender!"

Yang Fu, do you want to surrender Liu Jun, well, I'll cut off your head first!"

Ma Chao drew the sword at his waist.

"Ma Chao, do you still want to borrow a knife to kill?" Yang Fu did not have the slightest fear on his face.

"Big brother..." Ma Dai hurriedly stopped Ma Chao, "Big brother, the great enemy is now, how can we have internal strife first?

"General, no matter what? We can't hold Longxi, so we have to make plans early. Pound also advised.

Ma Chao returned the sword to its sheath.

"How far is Deng Ai's army from Longxi?"

"About eighty miles, but the march is not fast, and it will be outside the city at noon tomorrow!" said Pound.

"All the generals go down, get ready to defend the city!" Ma Chao knew that there would be no result in any further discussion.

"No!" In

the evening, Ma Chao called Pound and Ma Dai to his camp.

"Bo Zhan, Ling Ming, in this form, do you two have a brilliant plan?"

"Big brother, this battle to dominate the world is not a martial hero, Lü Bu is invincible in the

world, and in the end..."

"Lü Bupifu, how can you compare with me!" Ma Chao interrupted Ma Dai's words, "My ancestor was General Fubo, and in this troubled world, it is the time when heroes use force, how can I send people under the fence and do nothing!"

"Since the general wants to dominate the world, then we will withdraw to the Wudu Yinping, and if Liang Xing and Li Kan can stop the Han army, we will temporarily stand there and look for another opportunity." If you can't stop it, you will first attach to Yizhou Liu Zhang. Pound thought about it and said.

"Ling Ming's words are reasonable, the eldest brother should make a decision immediately!" Ma Dai agreed with Pound's view.

"Okay, then we'll take the soldiers, horses, grain and grass tonight and leave Longxi!" "

General, what about Yang Fu and Jiang Xu?"

"They are not the same heart as us, it is not beautiful to bring them, kill them all!" Ma Chao gritted his teeth and said coldly.

"Big brother can't!" Ma Dai immediately objected, "In Tianshui, General Jiang Jiao fought to defend the city, Jiang Xu was the nephew of General Jiang Yan, and Jiang Wei, the son of General Jiang, was only a teenager, if the eldest brother killed them, he would lose the hearts of the people, how could he dominate the world in the future?"

Ma Chao left Longxi overnight, and the next day, when the Han army reached the city, Yang Fu and Jiang Xu surrendered directly to Deng Ai.

Deng Ai is very happy, now not only Longxi, Longyou is also an empty city, and there are no generals under Deng Ai. Yang Fu and Jiang Xu were both wise generals, and their surrender at this time was also sincere, and Deng Ai sent someone to send a letter to the lord Liu Jun while directly appointing them.

Yang Fu led 3,000 soldiers and horses to garrison Longyou, while Jiang Xu led 2,000 soldiers and horses to return to Anding, and became horns with Tianshui Liaohua to prevent Han Sui in Jincheng. Deng Ai led the remaining 2,000 soldiers and horses to garrison Longxi.

"Lord, Shizai's war report has arrived, and he has already taken Tianshui Street Pavilion!" Fa Zheng held a war report in his hand and ran into Liu Jun's marshal tent excitedly.

"Shizai has succeeded, good, good!" Liu Jun seemed to be leisurely on the surface recently, but he thought about Deng Ai's situation all the time.

Liangzhou was desolate and chaotic, and the Taishou in various places were divided one after another, and the Western Qiang, Xianbei and other foreign tribes were also unstable, and it was dangerous to go deep alone.

"Lord, Tianshui, Chen Cang is completely isolated, and the grain and grass in the city will also be destroyed, it is estimated that Hao Zhao should also make a decision. Fa Zheng said to Liu Jun, "However, there are too few soldiers, and now we can detour to Jieting and march into Xiliang."

"Xiaozhi means that the army is divided into two ways, one way to continue to confront Hao Zhao at Chen Cang, and the other to march all the way to Western Liang.

"Yes!" Fa Zheng nodded, "We will sweep away the entire Western Liang with lightning speed!"
