Chapter 756 Hanzhong is in crisis
Ma Chao came to the woods and saw cold lights flashing in the shadows of the forest. When he looked closely, he saw Ma Yunlu was dancing a dragon-riding spear quickly. His moves were extremely ruthless. Ma Yunlu was like a violent rouge horse, and like an angry fire phoenix. Ma Chao's eyes showed a look of surprise. Without disturbing, he stood not far away and watched quietly. Suddenly, Ma Yunlu jumped up and raised the dragon-riding spear in his right hand.
He pierced straight towards a big banyan tree in front of him, and the whispered in his mouth was like a phoenix sound! In the lightning, the dragon rider and gun clicked through the big banyan tree, which was breathtaking! Ma Yunlu fell to the ground, and the sharp momentum just now disappeared instantly. Then he heard the sound of applause coming from the side, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look, and then he found that his elder brother Ma Chao had arrived not far away.
Ma Yunlu's face immediately showed a smile, and rushed forward quickly, shouting, "Brother!" Ma Chao smiled slightly, exclaiming, "Yunlu's martial arts are even more superb! No wonder Ma Xiu and Ma Tie are not your opponent! There are many female generals in the world, but I think no one can match you!" Ma Yunlu smiled and said, "Brother has been awarded!" Then he asked, "Brother comes to find me, are there any matters to ask my younger sister to do?" Ma Chao nodded with a smile and said, "Otherwise
It's not a big deal, it's just for the sake of precautions. I just received the news that General Yan Liang's team had passed Hanzhong and was expected to arrive in two days. Xu Yuanzhi's intention was that just in case, I would send you to lead a cavalry to pick up General Yan Liang." Ma Yunlu nodded and clasped his fists and said, "My little sister understands, let's prepare now!" Then he turned around and pulled out her dragon cavalry spear, ran to his rouge horse, and jumped up to ride his horse back to the camp.
Ma Chao looked at the girl's hot appearance and couldn't help but think of what her elder brother was worried about before, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried. After all, this girl is really old, but she has no intention of getting married. The elder brother tried to match her and Zhao Yun before, but she was furious. What exactly did this girl think? Could it be that she doesn't like martial artists, but literati?
As soon as he thought of this, Ma Chao suddenly remembered something that happened not long ago. Not long ago, he came back from the military camp outside, but he didn't see Ma Yunlu who should have been home long ago. After asking Ma Yunlu's female soldier, he found out that she had gone to the restaurant to listen to music. Ma Chao was curious for the first time when he heard about this, so he asked the female soldier to take him there. When he came to the restaurant, he saw Ma Yunlu listening to the singer singing the songs made by the elder brother, looking intoxicated. From this point of view, this girl probably likes scholars. As soon as he thought of this, Ma Chao had an idea in his heart and smiled slightly.
It is said that the two brothers Mi Zhu and Mi Fang led an army of 40,000 to the south from Sanguan, not far west of Chencang, and headed south through Chencang Mountain. After a few days, they finally arrived near Dingjun Mountain. A large army marched between these deep ditches and ridges, as if they were completely submerged. A little further apart could not be found at all.
After a long journey, the army was already trapped and exhausted. Mi Zhu ordered the army to rest for a while. Mi Zhu climbed a higher place and looked around, but saw cliffs around him thrust the sky, and he seemed to be in a huge jar. Mi Zhu couldn't help but feel a sense of boundlessness in his heart, and he was as small as an ant.
Mi Fang took the clean water and dried food and walked to Mi Zhu's side, handed it over, and said, "Brother, eat some." Mi Zhu took the clean water and dried food and said, "This Dingjun Mountain is dozens of miles away from Jiameng Pass and only a few dozen miles away from Hanzhong." Mi Fang nodded and said, "Brother is right. However, if you want to go to Hanzhong, you must pass through Jigu. If there are Qin troops guarding Jigu, our army cannot break Jigu."
Mi Zhu smiled slightly and said, "Don't you think Qin's army thinks the same way?" Mi Fang was stunned and didn't understand what his brother meant for a moment. Mi Zhu's eyes flashed with a strange spirit, and said, "The military strategy is 'unexpected, attack him without preparation'. Now is the time." Then he said to Mi Fang: "Send the order immediately, don't rest the army. Go immediately and raid eastward to capture Hanzhong!" Mi Fang was shocked. Mi Zhu has always been cautious, but this time he has to take a dangerous move. However, it is quite dangerous for a cautious person like him to suddenly use such a dangerous move. Although the Qin army is in Jigu
After thousands of defenders were placed, relying on the steep terrain, the army of Mi Zhu's troops would be impossible to break in a short period of time. Once the war situation was delayed, reinforcements from Qin army would arrive, and Mi Zhu's troops would fall into danger at that time. However, they were afraid that the Qin army guarding Jigu thought they were safe and negligent and were taken advantage of by Mi Zhu to take advantage of the situation. Once this happens, Hanzhong, with empty troops, will probably not be protected. If Hanzhong is captured by Mi Zhu, the entire battle situation will be reversed sharply. Although the Qin army cannot be said to be wiped out, the important city of Hanzhong behind them will be destroyed, so they can only retreat immediately and abandon the road of Hanzhong.
The 40,000 army led by Mi Zhu turned east on Dingjun Mountain and went straight to Jigu along the steep mountain road. In the middle of the night that day, the army advanced to Jigu. The Jigu defenders were unprepared, and the army led by Mi Zhu caught them off guard. When the defenders understood that they had come, Liu Bei's army had already swarmed in. Although the Jigu defenders fought back desperately, the situation was gone at this moment and they were powerless to make the situation come back.
Mi Zhu captured Jigu in one fell swoop, and was very excited. He didn't bother to rest and immediately led the main force to attack Hanzhong.
Wei Yan was awakened by the rapid knock on the door. He quickly got up and ran to the door to open the door. As soon as the door opened, he saw an officer anxiously saying, "No, General! Jigu, Jigu is lost!" Wei Yan was shocked and couldn't help but shout, "How is this possible?!" The officer said anxiously: "It was the officers and soldiers who escaped from Jigu's defeat, it should be true!" Wei Yan's mind instantly turned countless thoughts. The officer said, "We have only five thousand defenders in our city, and they are all new troops who have never been to the battlefield! We are afraid that the opponent's tens of thousands of elite soldiers are afraid that we can't defend it!"
Wei Yan looked at him and asked coldly, "Do you want to escape?" The officer did not answer, but he didn't need to answer when he looked like he was.
Wei Yan said firmly: "As a soldier, how can we fight in danger? Our mission is to guard Hanzhong. If Hanzhong is not protected, what will we look like to meet the lord?" Then he said resolutely: "The city is there, the city is there and the city is dead!" The officer couldn't help but feel shocked, and his eyes could not resist the expression of shame.
Wei Yan said: "Immediately, the entire army will gather together! Send someone else to call Xu Hong for me!" The officer Yingnuo and ran down quickly.
Not long after, Xu Hong came hurriedly. When he saw Wei Yan, he immediately bowed his fists and greeted him: "General." Xu Hong, who had read the previous article, should still have some impression of him. Yes, he is a local celebrity. He originally defected to Liu Bei and then helped Ailang regain the guy who helped Ailang regain Hanzhong. The wind blows both sides and is good at dancing! Ailang still appointed him as the prefect of Hanzhong for his contributions. As the parent official in Hanzhong, he can be said to be of high power!
Wei Yan replied with a bow and said, "Sir, an urgent matter has happened. Jiguan has fallen, and tens of thousands of troops led by Mi Zhu are on the way to Hanzhong..." Xu Hong suddenly heard this and was shocked and shouted at a loss: "This, how could this, how could this be..."
Wei Yan smiled and said, "Sir, don't panic..." Seeing Wei Yan's confident look, Xu Hong's panic was relieved, and he hurriedly asked, "Do you have a clever plan?" Wei Yan had some ideas, but he was not sure if he could defeat Mi Zhu and save Hanzhong. However, in front of Xu Hong, he pretended to be confident in his chest and Zhizhu. Wei Yan whispered to Xu Hong. Xu Hong looked shocked and said, "This, this..." Seeing him hesitated, Wei Yan smiled and said, "If sir, I won't force this matter. But if Hanzhong is not guaranteed, what are the faces of us to meet the lord?" Then he half-joking and half-seriously said, "Maybe the sir, have you planned to return to Liu Bei's command again?"
Xu Hong hurriedly said, "General is joking! The officials are loyal to the King of Qin, how can they go to Qin?" Then he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I'm afraid there will be no good results if I defect to Liu Bei now!" After a pause, he showed a determined look on his face, nodded and said, "Okay! There is nothing I can do about it now! Just do what the general wants!" Then he clasped his fists at Wei Yan and quickly walked out. Wei Yan thought for a moment, went out immediately, ready to rush to the military camp.
It is said that Mi Zhu broke through Jigu in one fell swoop, and did not dare to rest for a moment to avoid the enemy in Hanzhong being prepared. He immediately went out of Jigu and rushed to Hanzhong. Tens of thousands of troops marched in the wilderness, with a sound of panting. The officers and soldiers were very tired, but at this moment they were fighting for time, and Mi Zhu didn't dare to delay for a moment!
Before we knew it, the sun had risen from the east, the night quickly subsided, and a magnificent city suddenly appeared among the steep mountains and rivers! Hanzhong, here!
Mi Zhu was so happy that he immediately rushed to the city and launched a fierce attack on the Xicheng Gate. Although Liu Bei's officers and soldiers were very tired, they were all fierce in battles after all. They immediately rushed to the city. The offensive was like a tide and killing sound like thunder, and they kept hitting the city wall in front of them like storm! Qin's officers and soldiers relied on the city wall to throw rolling stones and fire arrows. However, the opponent's offensive not only did not weaken at all, but instead became stronger and more fierce! Not long after, Liu Bei's army had rushed to the city from many places, and a fierce bloody battle broke out on the city wall! Qin's officers and soldiers fought to the death, but they could not resist the opponent's boundless tide of soldiers. The entire city wall was in danger!
