Han Shimou

Chapter 577 Fortunately, I fell out of Mapo

"Eh. It was me who underestimated Zhao Zilong. If I had listened to your opinion and rushed to Yongshou and joined the strength of the two armies, the Xiliang army would have attacked half of the cities and counties in Xinping long ago!"

After all, Ma Chao stopped his anger. After the color changed, he sighed and blamed himself.

"Brother, winning or losing is a common thing in the army. Xinping has a maximum of 30,000 troops, and Zhao Zilong is the only good fighter. Zhao Zilong was guarding Sanshui, so the pressure on his father's army to attack Yongshou was far greater than that of Sanshui. And there is Pang Lingming, a tough general around his father. At this time, Yongshou University may have been captured by his father! I will rush there at this time and meet my father's army in time. It won't take many days to capture Yilu again.

After that, the Xiliang army came to besiege and kill Sanshui again. At that time, the army would have no worries about soldiers and food, and his brother and Pang Lingming joined hands. Even if Zhao Zilong had great ability, he could not stop the two peerless generals! At this point, there is no doubt that the three waters will be broken. I hope my brother will make a quick decision and decide to withdraw the military as soon as possible!"

Ma Xiu first comforted Ma Chao, and then analyzed with him. As Ma Chao listened, his tense face also relaxed. Ma Chao must look pale and nod his head.

"What the second brother said is reasonable. Pass the order and order all the people to pack up and retreat at night!"

"The last general is waiting for the order!"

Ma Xiu and Ma Tie were overjoyed. Now they were ordered to leave. The two went out of the account and made their own notices and arrangements.

Time passed little by little, and soon night came. A group of civilian troops waited for a secret investigation outside the Ma military camp. One of the scouts in the team saw that the Ma army had a lot of movement and showed signs of wanting to withdraw. He asked the generals of the team whether they wanted to go back to the city to report it. The scout captain laughed and said that the scout was nervous and didn't pay attention to it.

With the passage of hours, the night is getting darker and darker, and it is updated at night. Suddenly, there was a series of noisy sounds in Ma Junyingzhai. In this noisy sound, there were footsteps, the sound of soldiers shaking, the sound of flags and so on.

"It's not good! This Xiliang army is really going to retreat!"

The Wenjun scout general heard that his color changed on the spot and exclaimed.

"Ah! General Zhao arranged for the soldiers and horses in the city to come for a sneak attack. If he led the army to come, he found that the Ma's military camp had gone empty. Once the blame comes down, you and I will all be beheaded!"

A scolder's face was full of creep, and then he said again.

"This has nothing to do with me. I told the general earlier that the Western Liang army showed signs of withdrawal. It's just that the general turned a deaf ear."

First of all, the scout who first discovered Ma Jun's vision quickly got rid of it. The scout general had a cold look. He was originally a mountain thief. Later, he heard that he was a soldier under the command of Wen Han. He had a rich salary and a very high salary. The promotion system was based on talent and military merit, so he defected to the army under the command of Wen Han. However, as the old saying goes, it is difficult to change its nature. When the scout general saw that he had committed a great crime, he was likely to be be beheaded. Suddenly, he became thieves again. Suddenly, he took out a steel knife from his waist and suddenly cut off the scout. As soon as the blade passed, the head of the scout flew up, and warm blood sprinkled on the surrounding scout's face.

The scout general suddenly died in pain, which scared the scouts in his team to change their faces.

"I have a very precious life. I won't do it!" Whoever wants to live and live a happy life will fall into the grass with me. I promise that you will follow me and eat spicy food in the future. I will take you to taste all kinds of women!"

The scout general said with a cold face. This scout general is quite a little forceful. The scouts in the team are usually afraid of him, but this deserter is a big crime. If he is caught, he will definitely die. None of the scouts in the team dared to speak. The scout general saw it, snorted coldly, turned his head back and left.

"Well, the twisted melon is not sweet, and I won't force you to wait. You have committed a great crime. With the character of General Zhao, you will be severely punished! Whether it's dead or alive, it's up to you. I'll go!"

The scout general patted the horse and took the road away. After watching for a while, several scouts followed, or because of the threat of life, the whole scouts finally left with the scout general and became deserters.

The Ma army had begun to retreat, but at this time, Zhao Yun in Sanshui still did not know. At the third watch, Zhao Yun hurriedly led the army to the Ma military camp. As soon as he arrived at the gate of the camp, Zhao Yun saw that the camp was empty and messy, and even the ghosts of a Ma army soldier did not disappear. Suddenly, his face changed greatly and he immediately ordered the soldiers to search for the inspection of the Ma military camp tonight. The scout generals of the village came to question. Unexpectedly, the soldiers told him that the scouts had not returned to the city since they left the city at night. The army had just set out and did not report it.

"Wad!!! The incompetent person has ruined my overall situation!!!"

As soon as Zhao Yun heard it, he immediately guessed a lot. This general must have been a careless dereliction of duty and fled for fear of crime. Although Zhao Yun was furious, he couldn't take care of more and quickly made the soldiers catch up.

By the way, Ma Chao led the retreat, and the army rushed outside the falling slope. Ma Chao suddenly jumped and called a soldier from Xinping and asked where it was. The Xinping soldier told Ma Chao that this is the falling horse slope of three rivers and twenty miles. The terrain here is bumpy, and there are hilly slopes everywhere. If you ride a horse, it is very easy to fall off the horse, so it is named the fall horse slope.

As soon as Ma Chao heard the name of Luo Ma Po, he immediately frowned. His surname is Ma, but his name here is Luo Ma Po. This head was extremely ominous. Ma Chao thought for a while and suddenly sent a team of scouts to inquire around.

"Brother, the army is retreating, but why did it suddenly stop?"

Ma Xiu was in command of the rear army. Seeing that the front army suddenly stopped, he hurried to see the situation. Ma Chao answered with a calm face.

"This place is called Luomapo. I think this name is ominous. It is suspected that there is an ambush, so I ordered the scouts to inquire first."

"Hahaha. My brother is really worried. Zhao Zilong doesn't know about our withdrawal, how can it be!!!"

While Ma Xiu was smiling, there was a shout of killing for a moment. In the night, he faintly saw countless figures rushing out of the falling slope. Most of the team sent by Ma Chao was killed and injured, and only a few of the scouts rushed back.

"Ambush, there is an ambush!!! Er!!!"

One of the horse army scouts was shouting, and suddenly a series of arrows broke through the void, and the horse army scouts were shot down one after another!

"There is really an ambush!!!"

Ma Xiu turned pale with fear on the spot and cried out of his voice. Ma Chao ignored him and hurriedly ordered the army to take a detour and escape. The ambush army in Luo Mapo chased all the way, but they were far away from Ma Chao's Xiliang army, and the force was only more than 5,000, so they had to give up the chase. Let the Xiliang army escape.

The reason why Ma Chao escaped was that the scout general was careless and negligent. If it was Zhao Yun, the scout general's morning newspaper, Zhao Yun led troops to attack Ma's military camp. The Xiliang army was bound to flee in chaos. At that time, the soldiers of the Xiliang army were only about running for their lives, and there was no need to send scouts to explore first. When the deserters of the Xiliang Army hurriedly fell into the slope and were ambushed, they would inevitably suffer heavy casualties. Finally, when Zhao Yun's pursuers came and attacked back and forth, perhaps even if Ma Chao had extraordinary martial arts skills, he would also hate it.

However, tonight's layout is carefully planned by Xilong, and there will be only one ambush. Xilong acted cautiously. Once the layout, it must be a series of killing moves, just like the layout in the north. Han Sui can be said to have been ambushed in a row. In the end, the soldiers and horses were almost exhausted, and he was powerless to return to heaven!

However, everything can be expected. Xilong cautiously believes that there may be a possibility of 20 to 30% of the enemy generals attacking Sanshui at that time, and they can escape from the fallen slope. Therefore, he was on the only way to withdraw from the border of Sanshui, and the Black Fire Forest set up an ambush. At that time, Xilong believed that even if the enemy generals could escape from Luo Mapo, the remaining soldiers around him would never exceed 3,000, and they were all defeated soldiers. In this way, when they fled into the black fire forest, they were ambushed again, and there was no reason to live!

It is said that Ma Chao led the army to escape for a while. Seeing that the pursuers in the rear did not come, the soldiers stopped and reorganized.

"Brother, you are really expected to be like a god. If it hadn't been for your caution, I'm afraid that the army would be hit hard at this time!"

Ma Xiu gasped for a while. After swallowing a few mouthfuls of saliva, he sighed and praised with a little admiration. Ma Chao's face was still cold. The wave of ambush just now made him sweat coldly, and he really couldn't figure out why Zhao Yun knew in advance that he would retreat tonight.

It will take at least a day for the ambush to do ambush in Luo Mapo. Even if he has a lot of movement in the camp tonight, he was inquired by the scouts of the Wen army and learned that Zhao Yun did not have enough time to arrange this ambush!

Ma Chao was puzzled. How could he expect that Han Sui and Ma Teng joined hands to attack Beidi and Xinping? It was simply Wen Han who seduced them.

And Xilong's wisdom is extraordinary. He has arranged for Zhao Yun to ambush under the Langya Valley, and first seize the grain and grass of the enemy's army in Sanshui. In this way, the enemy's grain and grass are in short supply, and Zhao Zilong is guarded in Sanshui. The enemy's strong attack Sanshui, and the army's heart must be turbulent. Therefore, he also ordered Zhao Yun to watch the right time, sneak up on his camp, and force him to withdraw and flee. Then he was ambushed under the Fallen Horse Slope and the black fire forest, so that he could definitely annihilate all the enemy troops attacking Sanshui!

This time can be said to be a coincidence. Zhao Yun saw that the morale of Ma Chao's army was low, and the two ambush had just finished ambush, so he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to attack Ma's camp tonight. And Ma Chao saw the unfavorable situation and decided to withdraw his troops.

These factors coincide, and we can only sigh that the battlefield is changing so fast, which is really unpredictable.

Ma Chao's heart beat wildly. Suddenly, he felt that the land of Sanshui was full of strange killing. After the whole army, he led all the troops to accelerate the evacuation. Ma Chao led the army to fly. When he was about to reach the black fire forest, Ma Chao suddenly stopped the horses again. At this time, a strange strange wind brushed, and the black fire forest was gusts of wind, and the leaves in the dense forest swayed, like black flames under the rendering of the night. That's why the Black Fire Forest got its name.

Ma Chao squinted at the lion's eye and suddenly had a thrilling feeling. Perhaps it was because the ambush just now made him nervous.
