Chapter 60 War Eastern Wu and Southern Han Yang Wei Drive Cao Wei Zhongyuan Unification (21)
Sima Yi was relieved to hear that Ma Chao was defeated and did not die, because this was consistent with his previous inference. If the soldiers say that Ma Chao's whole army is destroyed, Sima Yi will feel cheated instead. In Sima Yi's opinion, Ma Chao must have been attacked and burned by Cao Xiu when he ambushed him. As a result, Ma Chao returned to the army and found that the camp was burned and the army was in chaos, and it was also possible to retreat.
Sun Quan saw that Sima Yi came forward to ask questions, but the soldiers did not open the gate, so he also immediately asked, "Your governor returned to this place, so why don't you open the gate to welcome him?"
The garrison at the head of the city explained according to Pang Tong's words: "The army was still far away before, and we didn't know if it was the governor. When I got closer, I saw that it was the flag of the two armies, and I didn't dare to open the city rashly. Please don't blame this general.
Seeing that the defenders at the head of the city did not know Sun Quan and were still guarding him, he couldn't help smiling and saying, "This is King Wu. Don't be rude. Open the city quickly!"
The garrison heard that Sun Quan, the king of Wu, was moved. His left hand reached behind his back and stretched out two fingers and made a gesture, which means that Sun Quan and Sima Yi were both under the city. But he said, "Don't blame the governor! The villain doesn't know His Majesty the King of Wu and is most afraid of Ma Chao's fraudulent city. The talented little man has ordered someone to return to the lord, and General Wen Lie will arrive later. After the general arrives, the villain will open the city and plead guilty with the governor.
It is not easy to blame Sima Yi when he sees that the soldiers are so careful. After all, it is wartime, and there is no big mistake to be careful, and Sima Yi estimates that there is no general in the city, and the soldiers dare not open the city privately. Sima Yi didn't say anything, but Cao Chun and Cao Zhen couldn't help it. They were also Cao's generals and didn't need to give Cao Xiu face, so Cao Zhen came forward and said, "I'm Cao Zidan. If you open the gate quickly, even General Wen Lie will not be blamed here."
Ma Superman Ma is guarding the city. Where did you invite Cao Xiu? Just now, to prevent Sima Yi from entering the city, it was just a pretentious plan and pretended to be more realistic. At this time, Cao Zhen happened to have a step down. So the head of the city said, "Since General Zidan is in charge, I will open the city when I wait." After saying that, he ordered people to put down the suspension bridge and open the gate.
Sima Yi frowned when he saw the opening of the garrison. In terms of official positions, Sima Yi was naturally higher than Cao Zhen. The garrison did not listen to his general's order but listened to Cao Zhen's orders, which made Sima Yi feel a little ashamed. However, Sima Yi did not expect that there would be fraud in the city. He just thought that Cao Zhen was a close relative of Cao and could never surrender against the master, so it was natural for the city leaders to suspect themselves but not doubt Cao Zhen.
Soon the gate opened, and Sun Quan and Sima Yi wanted to lead the troops into the city. As soon as the army was about to enter the city, they saw a fast horse approaching in the distance and shouted as they ran, "Don't enter the city!" Yecheng has been acquired by Ma Chao!"
Sun Quan and Sima Yi were stunned when they heard the sound, but there was no overreaction at that time. After all, the identity of the visitors was still unknown, and they didn't know whether what they said was true or false.
Ma Chao, Ma Dai, Pang De and Pang Tong hid at the head of the city. They wanted to lure Sun Quan and Sima Yi into the city first, then pushed down the rolling stone to block the gate, intercept the army outside the city, and then shot Sun Quan and Sima Yi in the city. But I didn't expect someone to remind me. Sun Quan and Sima Yi were difficult to distinguish between true and false. Ma Chao and others naturally knew that what the man said was true, so Ma Chao raised the flag, and the city was ambushed with tens of thousands of arrows.
"Ah~" "It's not good~" "I'm waiting for a plan!" Retire quickly!" ...Sun Quan and Sima Yi knew that it was not good as soon as they saw the city soldiers pointing the crossbow at the city and hurriedly retreated. Xie Jun and the tiger and leopard horse also reacted as soon as possible, surrounding the commanders of the two armies at the core.
Most of the ambush soldiers in the city were aimed at Sun Quan and Sima Yi, but the guards beside them were also the most. The strong bow and hard crossbow basically shot all the annoyance army and the tiger and leopard horse. People shouted that the horses were hissing one after another, but Sun Quan and Sima Yi took the opportunity to go far.
Ma Chao was anxious to see that the two were going to run and shouted, "Where is Sun Quan going!" After saying that, he shot Sun Quan's left arm and shot Sun Quan off the horse.
In Ma Chao's view, Sun Quan, the king of the State of Wu, is more valuable than Sima Yi, the governor of the State of Wei. Ma Dai and Pang De also had general thoughts. Seeing that Sun Quan was not dead, they also released arrows at Sun Quan and wanted to keep Sun Quan.
Zhou Tai saw Sun Quan fall and rush forward, blocking Ma Dai and Pang De's arrows with his body to save Sun Quan and walk away. When Ma Chao and the three of them saw that Sun Quan had been rescued, they couldn't help but say that it was a pity. When they wanted to shoot Sima Yi again, they found that Sima Yi had already gone far away, and there were only more than 1,000 Wu and Wei soldiers left in the city.
Ma Chao looked at the retreating Wu and Wei armies and punched the city and said angrily, "Who is that? It's a bad thing for me, and I can't wait to do it all."
Pang Tong also feels very sorry that his IQ is not weaker than Zhuge Liang, but he does not have Zhuge Liang's indifferent temperament. He always wants to prove himself, so he also hates it. However, some opportunities were missed or missed. Before, everyone only wanted to shoot Sun Quan and Sima Yi in the city, and did not think about chasing them. At this time, it was too late to transfer troops to chase them. Although Pang Tong hated and knew that regret was useless, he could only comfort Ma Chao and said, "Although he failed to leave Sun Quan and Sima Yi this time, he also lost all the elite soldiers under his command, which can be regarded as a help of two people. If there is a next time, I will definitely capture these two people.
Ma Chao also understood that there was no regret selling medicine in the world, so he had to wait for Nanye for the time being. Although this plan failed, it was also a victory. As soon as Ma Chao was angry, he rewarded the three armies.
Sun Quan and Sima Yi ran away in shock and scared, and then disranged their horses to heal their wounds. Sun Quan's arm injury was not serious, but Zhou Tai's back arrow was quite deep, and he needed to rest for a while before he could fight. Although Sima Yi was not hit by an arrow on the side of the Wei army, Cao Zhen was hit by an arrow on his leg. Fortunately, it was not serious.
Sima Yi called the person who reported the news to the front and asked, "Who are you?" Why did you come to report this?
Previously, the man replied, "The villain was carefully made by General Wen Lie. He was sent by the general to inquire about the military situation. When he saw that the governor wanted to enter the city, he issued a warning."
It turned out that Cao Pi did not go far after his defeat, but waited for Sima Yi's soldiers to come and sent Ting Ma to inquire and contact him. When the detective horse rushed to Ye City, he saw Sun Quan and Sima Yi enter the city, and then he made a statement to remind them to save their lives.
After listening to the cause and effect, Sima Yi couldn't help sighing and said, "Feng Zhu's plan is better than me." After saying that, he took Sun Quan to see Cao Pi, the lord of Wei.
However, it was said that Nan Ye led troops to pursue the Wu and Wei armies. As soon as Sun Quan and Sima Yi left, Nan Ye's back foot arrived. When he came under the wall, he was shocked to see that the ground outside the city was full of scorched earth, and there was no sign of Ma Chao at all. However, when everyone looked at the head of the city, they were overjoyed. Ye City had changed its flag and became the South Han City.
When the soldiers in the city saw Nan Ye's soldiers arrived, someone had already informed Ma Chao, and the generals in the city would leave the city together and welcome Nanye into the city. After a greeting from both sides, Nanye knew that it was Pang Tong who designed the city. He couldn't help but be overjoyed and rewarded the generals under his command.
Pang Tong has already found out that Cao Pi's people and horses are not far from the city, and also sent people to save Sun Quan and Sima Yi, which ruined his big deal, so he said to Nan Ye: "Now that the Eastern Wu has been settled, only the two states of Cao Wei have not been determined. The national division should send troops as soon as possible and kill Sun Quan and Cao Pi to unify the world. This is a blessing for all the people!"
Nan Ye's strong army has this intention, not to mention that he has captured Ye City now, even if he wants to get along well with Cao Pi. Nan Ye nodded and said, "What Shiyuan said is extremely true! I'm about to send troops to fight against Cao Pi and Sun Quan. Who else would like to go with me?
The generals were eager to go there, which made Nan Ye a little embarrassed and couldn't help looking at Guo Jia, Jia Xu and Pang Tong. Among the three, Jia Xu is the most tactful and does not offend the generals, but Guo Jia doesn't care about everyone's views. He just cares for the country and said to Nan Ye: "General Gan and Taishi Generals command the navy should not be separated for a long time and return to suppress the sea. Ye City is a must keep the land. In my opinion, we should keep heavy soldiers and the governor's army should have food and grass.
Nan Ye used Gan Ning and Tai Shi Ci to attack Qing and Xu Erzhou across the sea. Now they have reached Ye City, and the second general has already exceeded the task, so Nan Ye ordered them to return to the army. Jia Xu, Zhang Xi and Ma Dai were ordered to guard Yecheng, and the rest of the generals sent troops to pursue Sun Quan and Cao Pi again.
Sun Quanye's arrow in Yecheng injured the general Zhou Tai, and there were few generals left, so he had the intention of retreating from Sanhan and Gaoguli. Therefore, as soon as I saw Cao Pi, I asked Cao Pi to resign and said, "Nan Ye's soldiers are brave, and I have lost my foundation. I want to retreat from Sanhan, and then fight with Nanye. Please ask the king of Wei to borrow the way with me.
Cao Pi is not stupid at all. He knows that Sun Quan can't come back, and his own soldiers and horses are by no means enemies of Nanye. The final result can only be to retreat to Xianbei and Wuhuan like Sun Quan. So he said to Sun Quan, "Your Majesty, why did you say this? Your Majesty is the king of a country, and I am your majesty's minister. Jizhou and Youzhou are also your majesty's land. How can you say that your foundation has been lost? Your Majesty, please work together with me to fight against the enemy, and don't let the people of the world feel cold.
Sun Quan was shocked when he heard the words. Theoretically, after Cao Pi abdicate and became king, he did first surrender to Liu Bei and then to himself. But in fact, the two do not belong to each other, but only an equal alliance. Now that Cao Pi has moved this master out of the relationship in the face of a strong enemy, Sun Quan really has nothing to say.
When Lu Su saw Sun Quan's embarrassment, he said, " Since the king of Wei recognizes my lord as the king, he should know that your order cannot be violated. Your Majesty's intention is to order the king of Wei to lead the army to guard Erzhou to prevent Nanye, and come back to help after his Majesty retreats to Sanhan to rectify the soldiers and horses.
Sima Yi heard that Lu Su's argument was so powerful, so he said, "There is a father's kindness and son's filial piety, and the emperor's benevolence and minister are loyal. Nan Ye sent troops to attack His Majesty's land, which had nothing to do with the king of Wei, but the king of Wei sent troops to help. Now that Nanye's soldiers have come, won't it be chilling for your majesty to leave? If your majesty really wants to leave, don't blame me for teaching Nanye.
Sun Quan's face turned green when he heard the words. Cao Pi's greatest advantage at this time was that he returned the throne and became king. He could respect Liu Bei and Sun Quan as emperors, and naturally Liu Yi of the Southern Han Dynasty as emperors. If Cao Pi really joined forces with Nan Ye, Sun Quan would not even have a way to live.
Lu Su was also shocked, but he didn't expect Sima Yi to make a direct threat, which made him feel reasonable and unclear. Lv Meng was born as a general. Although his eloquence is not as good as Lu Su, he has a blood. At that time, he got up and pulled out his sword and said angrily, "You dare to be a thief! Look, I'll kill you!"
