Chapter 350: Capture Sima

,,,,,,,,,,,,

Generally, few people use river water to protect the camp when the army is stationed. On the one hand, the camp mainly chooses to be in a high place, condescending, and easy to defend. Secondly, the project of digging river channels is relatively large. If it is stationed temporarily, there is no need for this.

Zhao Yan has been stationed in the camp for a long time and built solid walls. So in order to be like a city, he specially directed the moat in Anlu County and formed a guarding river more than 10 meters wide around the camp. With the strong and tall walls, the camp is easy to defend but difficult to attack, just like a city.

If tinctures were not seen before tincture oil, such a camp was indeed very distinctive, but after the Jiangxia army took the lead in using tincture oil, such a moat actually laid a great hidden danger.

Just as the Jiangxia army's heavy trencher shot huge fireballs into the Cao army's camp, the Jiangxia army dumped thousands of barrels of tincture oil into the waterway outside the Huying River. The tincture oil quickly spread in the Daying. In just half an hour, the Huying River outside the Daying River gradually covered a layer of pungent tincture oil.

At this moment, a huge fireball hit the wall and bounced back into the river. Half of the fireball was still burning in the water, and instantly ignited the tincture oil connected to the waterway, and a fire burned rapidly on the water surface.

The fire spread rapidly, burning from the waterway into the Guying River, like dominoes being pushed down, and like two fire dragons swimming in the water, finally converging in the northwest of the Daying, forming a spectacular fire ring that surrounded the Daying.

The fire was raging and the smoke was rolling on the water. The Cao army soldiers in the camp began to panic. This was the first time that many soldiers saw the water burning. This wonder of the blending of water and fire was even more shocking than the fireball, and even more shattering morale.

Soon, the burning of the water surface began to bring about a series of serious consequences. First, the wall on the east was lit, and many oil barrels thrown from the city were hitting the wall. The turbulent oil flowed over the wall made of wood and soil, causing a raging fire to ignite a section of the wall on the east that was about a few miles long.

The second is that thick smoke filled the camp, and the choking smoke made people unable to breathe. At this time, the soldiers could no longer care about the fireballs and oil barrels whistling from the city. The fireballs rush around the camp, knocking groups of soldiers over, the oil barrels shattered, and the tincture oil flowed all over the ground. They were then ignited by Mars, forming a sea of ​​fire.

The fire began to spread rapidly in the military camp, with soldiers crying, cursing, and desperate shouts. More than 25,000 Cao's soldiers fled in the camp with their lives, instinctively trying to find a safe place.

At this moment, the sound of war drums outside the camp began to rumble, and the five thousand Jiangxia troops began to attack the Cao army camp, with internal and external troubles and morale collapsed, which made the Cao army fall into despair.

Zhao Yan was sweating profusely. The severe situation had already made him anxious. He had never experienced a war of tinea oil. Fire could actually burn in the water, which was beyond his common sense.

"Don't panic, gather and prepare to break through"

He shouted with great silence, but there was chaos around him. No one listened to his orders anymore except for several personal soldiers. At this time, a personal military marquis rushed forward and shouted: "Chief, the gate of Ximen Camp has been opened, General Yu Jin and General Zang Ba have led their troops to break through."

Zhao Yan was shocked and couldn't help but curse: "These two bastards dare to run away without permission, I must kill them."

Even though he cursed like this, he felt unconfidence. He sighed and Zhao Yan asked again: "How many soldiers have escaped?"

“More than half”

The Hou of the Personal Guard said anxiously: "The Jiangxia army has broken through the Nanying Wall, and it will be too late if he doesn't leave."

Helplessly, Zhao Yan had to say angrily: "Send all soldiers to break through"

He turned over and ran westward, but just after running a few steps, he tied the reins and asked, "Who has seen Sima Yi?"

"He has been with General Yu Jin at night, and I don't know if he escapes." A soldier replied in the darkness.

"It's really him urging him on the back"

Zhao Yan cursed and urged the horse to run towards the Western Camp. The soldiers followed him, and their figures were soon covered by thick smoke.

In the camp, the Cao army had completely collapsed and each was looking for escape. As Yu Jin and Zang Ba led their soldiers to escape from the Xiying camp, the entire Cao army soldiers seemed to have found an escape exit, and tens of thousands of people rushed towards the Xiying gate.

In fact, Zhao Yan's concerns are reasonable. Tens of thousands of Jiangxia troops could not allow Cao's army to escape. They had already set up nets outside the military camp and were waiting to capture the escaped Cao's army.

Just two miles outside Xidaying, Liu Jing personally led 10,000 Jiangxia troops to form a Yanyue formation, waiting for Cao's army to fall into a trap. Liu Jing rode on the war horse, holding a Fangtian painting halberd in his hand, and stared coldly at the fire camp two miles away.

His original purpose in this battle was to defeat Cao's army, regain Anlu County, and enhance the information that Sun Quan defeated Cao's army, which also made Sun Quan realize that it would be a foolish decision to break an alliance with him.

But at this time, he had a new idea, and Liu Jing immediately ordered the left and right, "If you pass on my order, you will be rewarded with 5,000 taels of money if you capture Sima Yi."

...........

Sima Yi realized that the situation was hopeless when the fireball appeared. He immediately made a decision to escape from the camp, but Li Yan had issued a death order and no one was allowed to leave the camp without authorization.

Sima Yi knew that leaving the camp would inevitably become an excuse for Li Yan to criticize him in front of Cao Cao. For this reason, he put on a makeup to a Cao army soldier, wore ordinary armor, and hid near the Beidaying with more than a dozen of his followers.

Sima Yi was very clear about the situation in front of him. There would inevitably be heavy troops from Jiangxia outside the Xiying, and only by escaping from the north towards Runan could he escape from the predicament.

The fire was blazing in the Huying River, and thick smoke filled the camp. The fireballs and turbulent oil barrels kept chaotic in the Cao army camp. The panic spread rapidly, and the fighting spirit had completely collapsed. Everyone was looking for a chance to escape.

Thousands of soldiers gathered in front of the Beiying Gate, shouting loudly to open the camp gate. The famous Cao army soldiers guarded the north gate. They held battle knives in their hands, lined up, staring at the large group of soldiers who were trying to attack the camp gate.

He waved a long sword for a burly toothed general and shouted loudly: "The head coach has an order, and he is good at going out of the camp to discuss killing. Who dares to attack the camp? I will be the first to kill him."

Although thousands of soldiers were in a state of enthusiasm, no one dared to take the lead in attacking. At this time, Sima Yi, who was hiding in the crowd, pointed at the tooth general and whispered to a follower: "Shoot him with a crossbow arrow."

His entourage immediately raised his crossbow and aimed at the officer Wei. He heard a light sound of a crossbow machine. A crossbow arrow broke out of the string and shot towards Weiya like lightning. Yajiang was shouting loudly. He never dreamed that someone would attack. In the blink of an eye, the arrow shot to Yajiang. He could not dodge and was shot by an arrow in front of him. He screamed and fell to the ground.

The defenders were in chaos, and Sima Yi took the opportunity to shout, "If you don't go out, you will be burned to death, rush out."

The crowd was in high spirits, and the scene suddenly lost control. Thousands of soldiers rushed towards the camp gate. Several soldiers who tried to stop were dismembered by the scattered sword. The gate was knocked open, the suspension bridge was lowered, and the northern camp gate opened wide. Thousands of Cao troops rushed out and fled towards the lifeless black.

The chief general of Jiangxia Army who surrounded and suppressed the Beiying Gate was the general Gan Ning. He led 5,000 soldiers to set up a pocket two miles away from the Beiying Gate. At this time, a soldier pointed to the direction of the Beiying Gate and said loudly: "General Gan, the enemy has come out."

Under the half-light and half-dark moonlight, there were dense soldiers of Cao's army running for no time in the wilderness. Many people screamed and fell heavily to the ground. They stepped on the trapped horse pit and were pierced by sharp bamboo sticks hidden in the pit.

At this time, many Cao army soldiers discovered the enemy's surroundings in front of them, and shouted in fear. Gan Ning waved his short halberd and ordered: "Those who surrender are exempt from death, and those who dare to resist are killed regardless."

Five thousand Jiangxia soldiers pulled out a large fan-shaped net long and surrounded the running Cao army soldiers, "the surrendered people are exempted from death."

"Drop your weapons and kneel down"

The Jiangxia soldiers kept shouting and screaming from the black, and the screaming screams of the murdered soldiers came. Countless Cao soldiers were desperate and knelt down and surrendered. Sima Yi was also mixed in the crowd, but he rode a horse. In the chaos, he was separated from his followers.

At this time, he heard many Jiangxia soldiers shouting loudly for surrendering soldiers: "Is Sima Yi here?" He was shocked and desperately whipped the war horses and ran northeastward.

"Stop" Jiang Xia soldiers discovered him, and several arrows roared at him, shot over his head. Suddenly, more than twenty Jiang Xia soldiers appeared in front of him, holding spears in their hands and aimed at him. If they rushed forward, his war horse would be pierced by the spear.

Sima Yi hurriedly turned his horse's head and tried to escape from the east. Unexpectedly, his war horse neighed and fell heavily. It stepped on a trap of horse trap. The bamboo stick pierced the horse's hooves. The front leg of the war horse was broken. Sima Yi was also overturned to the ground. One leg was pressed tightly by the war horse. He cursed in a low voice and struggled to get up, but the tips of several sharp spears stabbed towards his chest and throat with the sound of wind.

Sima shouted in shock, "I am Sima Yi."

The spear tip stopped in front of his chest and throat, and a Shi asked in a trembling voice: "You are really Sima Yi."

Sima Yi sighed, threw away his helmet, and said to several Jiangxia soldiers: "What's the point of fake? I'm Sima Yi, the chief clerk."

Several Jiangxia soldiers cheered and rushed up at the same time, pressing him tightly to the ground, shouting anxiously: "I caught it."

"No, I'm obviously holding him down first."

At this time, Shi Chang rushed forward, grabbed a few soldiers, punched each of them hard, and scolded: "His grandma, what's the point of fighting for this? Everyone has a share of the bounty, let me ask first."

Shi Chang piled up smiles again, and helped Sima Yi up and said with a smile: "These are all rough people, which scares the teacher. As long as he doesn't do anything randomly, I will definitely treat him kindly."

Sima Yi had probably heard a clue and asked, "Catch me, how much bounty will there be?"

A soldier blurted out, "Five thousand taels of gold"

Shi Chang turned around and slapped him over, scolding fiercely: "I'll talk nonsense again, I'll slap you to death."

He patted Sima Yi's dust on his body again, and smiled with his face, "Actually, it's only a little reward."

Sima Yi already understood and was surprised that he was worth 5,000 taels of gold. Since that's the case...
