Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 1216: Attack on the city

However, facing the elite enemy scouts, Ma Chao did not dare to send scouts to the battlefield easily. There were not many Xiliang cavalry under his command. If they were seriously damaged on the battlefield, they would not be able to face the enemy after Didao. The enemy will be more passive.

As long as he withstands the enemy for ten days, Ma Chao will withdraw from Zhangxian and face Lu Bu at Didao.

Ma Chao also considered that the enemy would attack Didao. At this time, Didao's status was prominent. Ma Chao even sent Ma Wan to guard Didao. Ma Wan's character was quite cautious, and there were two thousand troops in Didao City. , if handled properly, the enemy would be hard-pressed to do anything. As for the enemy sending a large number of troops to raid Didao, Ma Chao was not afraid. Once the number of enemy troops outside the city was greatly reduced, he would choose to take action.

The enemy's army is large in number. All it takes is cutting off the enemy's food and grass to prevent them from seeing each other. The importance of food and grass to an army can be imagined. If the food and grass are not available, even if Lu Bu has great abilities, he can only Able to retreat from Longxi.

Longxi and Yizhou were close. After Ma Chao planned to repel the enemy, he joined forces with Liu Zhang in Yizhou. No matter how stupid Liu Zhang was, he would have dealt with the situation after seeing the situation in Liangzhou and Chang'an.

Two days later, the moat was filled in for the coalition forces outside the city. Ma Chao, who had been observing the number of enemy troops outside the city, secretly felt relieved when he saw that they did not decrease too much.

Let's say that Zhao Yun led his cavalry to stay in hiding during the day and night. Three days later, they arrived in a dense forest outside Didao City. In order to ensure the success of the sneak attack on Didao, he even disguised himself as an ordinary citizen to explore the news in the city.

Although the war in Zhang County affected Didao to a certain extent, there were still many people and businessmen coming and going at the city gate.

Zhao Yun took a look at the city in front of him, and a solemn look flashed across his expression. The defenders on the city behaved quite rigorously, and the soldiers at the city gate even organized the common people and merchants to enter and leave the city in an orderly manner.

"Why are you going to the city?" After seeing Zhao Yun, the soldiers guarding the city gate stepped forward and asked.

Zhao Yun's appearance was extraordinary, and this soldier confirmed that he had not seen Zhao Yun in recent times.

"General, I am from Shouyang County. I heard that the enemy was attacking Zhangxian County, so I went to the city to seek refuge with my relatives and friends. I hope the general can be accommodating," Zhao Yundao said.

The soldiers nodded. The war in Zhang County had a great impact on the entire Longxi. Many people from other cities rushed to Didao to take refuge.

"I wonder who in the city you are seeking refuge with?" the soldier asked.

However, as soon as the soldier finished his words, there was no follow-up. He felt the heavy weight in his hands, and his face suddenly glowed with joy.

"It seems that you are not a vicious person. Once you arrive in the city, please do not walk around at will. You are not allowed to go out at night. Otherwise, you will be directly killed as a trick." Apparently there are many soldiers guarding the city. Do something like this.

Zhao Yun cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, General, for informing me."

After entering the city, Zhao Yun could clearly feel the panic on the faces of the people walking on the streets. Although he was walking on the streets, Lu Bu was always paying attention to the direction of the city wall.

The war in Zhangxian County caused many people to rush to Didao. They blended in with the crowd and did not look out of place.

The defenders on the city wall seemed to be well-defended, but in Zhao Yun's opinion, this was not the case. From the occasional movements of these soldiers, it can be seen that the reason why they maintained this posture was due to strict orders. The soldiers on the city wall He even looked back at the people in the city from time to time. The armor worn by the soldiers also looked a bit tattered.

After making a plan in his mind, Zhao Yun quietly left the city.

The next day, the city gate of Didao was still open as usual. Since the city gate had just been opened, congestion soon appeared at the city gate. People who were eager to leave the city and people who were eager to enter the city seemed a little busy for a while.

, and the soldiers at the city gate were obviously used to this kind of situation, and did not scold them. They made things difficult for the businessmen and people passing by from time to time, and got some specific benefits.

The soldiers were extremely poor. They had no military pay. When the war started, they were the ones at the forefront. The food in the army would not be three meals a day like the army under Lu Bu's command. They could only have three meals a day.

Speaking of barely filling their stomachs, under such circumstances, one can imagine how they will implement the strict orders from above.

In the eyes of the city's defenders, the most comfortable thing is to guard the city gate. At the end of the day, the benefits they get are enough to let them enjoy themselves in the city's restaurants.

After Zhao Yun received the news from the city gate, a sneer appeared on his lips, and with an order, the flying cavalry charged towards Didao.

There is no doubt that Ma Wan, who was guarding Didao, was cautious. However, he did not have enough cavalry and could not understand the situation outside the city in a timely manner. Although Ma Chao reminded him, Ma Wan did not think that the enemy would attack at this time.

Appears in Didao.

Of course, Ma Wan had extremely strict requirements for the defenders in the city. He even went to the city wall many times to inspect soldiers who were not responsible and killed them on the spot. Under such a deterrent, the soldiers performed relatively conscientiously.

The unique sound of the cavalry charge alerted the defenders on the city.

A general's expression changed drastically and he shouted: "It's the cavalry, close the city gate quickly!"

However, the city gate was in a congested state at this time, and cavalry were coming, which added to the panic. The people and merchants leaving the city ran towards the city gate at an extremely fast speed.

The soldiers guarding the city gate drew their swords and killed several civilians one after another, but still could not stop the panic at the city gate, and their faces suddenly turned pale.

With the speed of the cavalry, they quickly approached the city gate, and the defenders did not even have time to retract the drawbridge.

"It's a flying cavalry!" A general said in horror after seeing the flag of this cavalry clearly.

The soldiers on the city looked frightened when they heard this. They had heard of the flying cavalry's reputation.

"Kill!" Zhao Yun took the lead and killed towards the city gate.

Facing ordinary people, Fei Qi did not hold back at all. They knew that this was a contest with the defenders. Although ordinary people caused the chaos at the city gate to a great extent, if the people were allowed to

If this continues, it will be difficult for them to attack the city. After all, there are two thousand defenders in the city. Once they react, it will not be easy to break through the city.

When Ma Wan heard the news from the west of the city, his expression changed drastically. He did not expect that enemy troops would actually attack Didao at this time.

"Command the sergeants of the army to rush to the west of the city and drive the enemy troops out of the city!" Ma Wan immediately ordered.

The army in the city has not stopped training since Ma Dai arrived. This situation made many soldiers complain, but they knew that they could not compete with Ma Dai and could only obey orders.
