Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Cao Cao assassinated Dong, and I was abandoned

"Longbowmen, get ready, let's fire three rounds first!"

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Countless rockets shot directly into the city, which amazed Jiang. The range exceeded three hundred steps. What a fucking joke.

"General, look what that is?"

Jiang Jiong looked in the direction the soldiers were pointing at, and suddenly his legs went limp.

Wei Jun's siege crossbow.

"Let the soldiers leave the city gate!"

Wei Jun's siege crossbow was simply irresistible, no matter how many people stood behind the door, it would be useless.

Rather than sacrifice in vain, it is better to let them withdraw.

Dian Wei shouted: "Siege crossbow, aim at the city tower for me, let them see the power first!"

"boom!"

With a whoosh, a huge arrow rushed directly at the position where Jiang Jiong was, and Jiang Jiong was so frightened that he fell to the ground in a hurry.

"Whoa!"

Under the impact of the huge arrow, the city tower was directly smashed into pieces.

The soldiers on the city wall were scared to death. If this attack force hits people, can they still have a good place?

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"Wei Jun is a demon, we can't beat them at all!"

Jiang Jiong was horrified when he heard the complaints from the soldiers. His soldiers' morale was gone, and they couldn't defend Xi County at all.

"withdraw!"

Chapter 527

"Report to the three generals, there are traps at the west, south, and north gates, and you can't get out."

Jiang Jiong felt cold, how could there be a trap?

These Wei soldiers are so shameless that they dig traps outside their city.

"Come out with me through the east gate."

Jiang Jiong led the soldiers, went out of the east gate, and went straight to the siege equipment of the Wei army.

There are not many soldiers there, only a few hundred people are protecting them. Today, they will destroy their siege equipment first. Even if they can't kill them, they can still defend for a while.

Seeing Jiang Jiong's army getting closer and closer, Xu Chu and Dian Wei were all smiles, "Tie Futu, rush over to me, and then block their city gate, don't let him go back to the city."

Rumble!

More than 500 swarthy cavalry, with four or five horses, rushed towards Jiang Jiong's front army.

Jiang Jiong looked horrified, they had never seen this kind of cavalry before, what exactly is this.

The iron chains are connected together, and it is not so easy to rush over.

Has Wei Jun's cavalry equipment reached this point?

Before Jiang Jiong could think of a countermeasure, Tiefutu had already arrived in front of his army.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

The crossbow in Tie Futu's hand shot randomly at the cavalry in front, and Jiang Jiong's face turned black.

Jiang Jiong watched these iron Buddhas forcefully tore a hole from his army, but he was helpless.

The armor was too hard to be pierced by his weapons, let alone the soldiers' weapons.

"follow me!"

Jiang Jiong no longer paid attention to the Tiefutu behind him, but rushed towards the weakest point of Wei Jun.

"Lao Dian, you left and right, see who kills more."

"it is good!"

The two sides fought in this wilderness for nearly an hour, basically killing each other unilaterally.

Jiang Jiong saw that his soldiers had no ability to resist and could not rush out, so he had to lead the soldiers to surrender directly.

"My lord, the enemy general Jiang Jiong has been captured alive by two generals."

Cao Shuo nodded, and ordered: "Bring the men, and notify the other armies to take down the entire Hanyang County."

"promise!"

Jiang Jiong was arrested, and the dragons in Hanyang County had no leader. These soldiers would not resist desperately.

Looking at Jiang Jiong who was tied up by five flowers, Cao Shuo smiled and said, "I really like General Jiang's bravery. I wonder if you would like to join our country Wei?"

Jiang Jiong said very stubbornly: "I am from Xiliang, and I will never seek refuge in Wei Guo. If I want to kill, I will kill it."

"You died like this, have you ever thought about your wife and children? Have you ever thought about your mother?"

"The king will take good care of them for me."

Jiang Jiong looked at Cao Shuo with displeasure, but he didn't expect that he would use his family to blackmail him.

"Ma Teng can't protect himself, but he doesn't have the strength to protect your family. However, after you die, when I capture Xiliang, I will take good care of your wife and children."

"You..." Jiang Jiong was furious.

"General, go at ease!"

Cao Shuo waved his hand, Dian Wei grabbed Jiang Jiong and dragged him out.

"Cao Shuo, you must die!"

Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, this Jiang Jiong is Ma Teng's loyal subordinate. If Ma Teng is not arrested, he will not join us."

"Then let him see how Ma Teng was defeated by our army."

Hanyang County was completely captured in less than three days. Ma Chao, who was defending at Di Dao, was horrified when he received the news.

Wei Jun's actions were too fast, and he didn't even have a chance to rescue them. Hanyang County fell into Wei's hands, so they would be alone in Longxi County.

"Reporting to Major General, the king's army has withdrawn to the west of the Yellow River, and the king asked the major general to abandon Longxi County and stick to Jincheng County."

Ma Chao was shocked, "What about Anding County and Beidi County?"

"It has been breached by Wei's generals Huang Zhong, Yan Xing, Gongsun Zan and others. My lord was forced to withdraw to the west of the Yellow River. Major General please withdraw as soon as possible."

Ma Chao hesitated. Although he really wanted to fight Cao Shuo, the current situation did not allow it. Hanyang County and Anding County were lost. If he did not return to Jincheng County, he would be besieged by Cao Shuo's army. Longxi County.

Looking at the newly built Dazhai, Ma Chao sighed, "Withdraw the troops!"

"Report, Cao Shuo's army has come to the north of Di Dao!"

Ma Chao raised his eyelids.

Do you want to take advantage of Cao Shuo's unstable foothold and sneak attack for a while?

However, when Ma Chao hadn't decided whether to sneak attack, Fazheng led the army to his army.

Ma Chao hurriedly asked, "Second Brother, why are you here?"

"I'm afraid that my brother will be impulsive and fight Wei Jun recklessly."

Fazheng was afraid that Ma Chao would lose his soldiers and horses here again. Xiliang had a small population and couldn't stand Ma Chao's troubles.

Ma Chao said depressedly: "Cao Shuo's army has arrived here, it would be a pity if we didn't take the opportunity to attack."

Fazheng persuaded: "Even if we succeed in the sneak attack, given the difference in strength between the two sides, it is impossible for us to repel the opponent, and even the loss will be greater than theirs."

"Could it be that we don't resist because of the huge gap in strength between the two sides?"

"Brother misunderstood, we have to try our best to slow down Cao Shuo's progress, Cao Shuo's army is about to attack, we just need to resist for a while, and then when the enemy invades the camp, burn down the stronghold and let them know Our Xiliang army is powerful."

Ma Chao narrowed his eyes. If this was the case, he might be able to burn many Wei soldiers to death.

"Hurry up and prepare dry firewood. Fill the entire camp with me. I want to make Wei Jun peel off his skin."

Ji Ling, who was organizing his men to attack the camp, realized that the Xiliang army's attack power was too weak, so he led [-] soldiers desperately and rushed in.

"The enemy has withdrawn, chase after me!"

Ji Ling yelled, and rushed into the camp first.

Guo Jia, who was watching the battle from a distance, felt a little worried when he saw that Ji Ling had entered the camp so quickly.

It stands to reason that the camp defended by Ma Chao himself should not have been captured so quickly.

Moreover, none of their soldiers saw Ma Chao.

"No, hurry up and inform Ji Ling, be careful of the other party's ambush!"

Guo Jia's military order had just been delivered, and when Ji Ling was about to withdraw, the dry firewood in Dazhai was suddenly ignited.

The raging fire spread instantly, and Ji Ling was horrified as he looked at the surrounding fire.

"Quick, get out of the camp."

"Enemy general, take your life!"

Just as Ji Ling was retreating, Ma Chao suddenly led an army in. The back road was blocked by fire, and the front road was ambushed again. Ji Ling hesitated for a moment, and directly led more than 2000 soldiers, rushing towards Ma Chao's army .

The soldiers led by Ji Ling were all infantry. Although they were well equipped, they were poor in mobility. The two sides fought for almost half an hour, and more than 2000 soldiers were all worn to death by Ma Chao.

Ji Ling was also exhausted, so Ma Chao took advantage of Ji Ling's inattention and shot him in the waist.

"Tie me up!"

Jiang Jiong is still in Cao Shuo's hands, and he wants to use Ji Ling to trade with Cao Shuo.

Chapter 528

Ma Chao led the army and withdrew to Heguan on the bank of the Yellow River in Longxi County, and asked the soldiers to stop and have a rest.

Fazheng hurriedly came to Ma Chao and said, "In the previous stop, our army suffered a total of nearly 2 casualties."

"what?"

Ma Chao was only concerned with withdrawing his troops before, and did not go to count the soldiers.

Unexpectedly, Ji Ling's 2 soldiers could kill [-] of him.

He and Fazheng had a total of only [-] troops, and they lost nearly [-]% in this one stop.

"When I was guarding the camp, I did a little statistics. There were more than 5000 casualties. The main reason was that when Ji Ling was besieged and killed, the opponent's soldiers fought to the death, and the loss was so great."

Ma Chao wiped off a cold sweat. When Ji Ling was besieged and killed, there were only two thousand people on the other side, and their fighting strength was almost ten times that of theirs.

And the opponent is infantry, they are cavalry.

If they encountered the Xuanjia Army, how much would they lose?

"How many people in Longxi County have not been transferred?"

"Nearly [-]% of them have been transferred, and there are still some who are unwilling to leave."

"Cao Shuo's army is coming soon, we must speed up, this Jiangguan may be able to resist for a while, but once the Wei army's siege equipment arrives, we must retreat to Hexi."

Fazheng asked his soldiers to build fortifications on the other side of the river while preparing boats for crossing the river.

"Leader General Qi, the commander of Shaoqiang, Ohe Shaoge, and Mo Zhesai and Fatong led fifty thousand Qiang people to come to support our army."

Ma Chao was overjoyed. With the help of the Qiang people, it would be much easier for them to defend Jincheng County.

"Let them come to see me in the big tent!"

"Reporting to Major General, Ehe Shaoge said that they are willing to present the head of General Cao Jun!"

Fazheng asked in horror, "Where are they?"

"Go to Di Dao to attack Wei Jun."

"No, send someone to call them back!"

Fazheng and Ma Chao looked depressed. These Qiang soldiers had no experience in fighting the Wei army, and they didn't know how terrifying the Wei army was.
