Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Sima Yi's cunning was indeed beyond Ma Di's imagination, but he still forgot one thing.

A manager is extremely vulnerable when he leaves his team. Especially in a place like Hongnong County where mountainous forests are poorly developed.

As a result, Sima Yi was so happy that he became sad and ran into a wild beast.

Fortunately, this was a lone wolf, and Sima Yi managed to escape after losing half his life. Finally, there were only fifty or sixty people left, and Sima Yi could only imitate Zhang He and climb the mountain to escape.

At the same time, Ma Di also caught up with Cao Wei's defeated troops. On a narrow mountain road, the Han army defeated the Wei army, and thousands of Wei soldiers were captured.

But Ma Su searched all the prisoners and was surprised to find Sima Yi himself.

Later, news came back from Deng Fan that after his formation killed the fake Sima Yi and defeated the Wei army, Sima Yi was also not found.

In other words, after chasing him three years ago, Ma Di once again let this old thief escape.

"Fuck! None of the generals in the Puppet Wei group can fight, but their talent for escaping is different from ordinary people!" Ma Su was so angry about this. This was already the second time Sima Yi ran away!

Although there were eight or nine enemy generals who escaped from Ma Su's hands, it was Sima Yi's escape that made Ma Su the most angry. Especially when I chase you like this and still let you, an old artist, run away, this is the most unbearable thing for Ma Su.

"Next time anyone sees Sima Yi, they must be killed!" Ma Su was angry and issued an order to the entire army.

"Not again, not again! The next time we meet, it must be on the day of Sima Yi's death!"

"General, let's go next..." Deng Fan scratched his head and carefully asked about the next deployment.

Although they failed to stop all the Wei troops, most of the troops were scattered in Hongnong County. The maximum number of troops that Guo Huai, Sima Zhao and others can take away is 10,000, and by the time they reach Guandong, there will probably be no more than a few thousand left.

Tongguan, Pubanjin, Hongnong County and other places were all occupied by the Han army. So far, the entrance to Guanzhong has been completely blocked by the Han army, and the strategic goal has been basically completed.

Moreover, Cao Shuang still had 30,000 people trapped in Pubanjin in the north. This was meat that rotted in the pot, and even if it had wings it could fly south. So from this point of view, the gains from this battle are still quite large, and it is time to stop.

However, Ma Di shook his head, immediately rejected Deng Fan's idea, and issued an order directly,

"It is better to use your remaining courage to pursue the poor bandits, and not to pretend to be the overlord! If we do not take the opportunity to pursue them now and allow the Wei army to retreat safely to Guandong, it will cause trouble for the future Eastern Expedition!"

"Assemble the entire army and return to Hongnong to rest for a day and follow me to continue the pursuit eastward! By the way, notify Shu Ji and ask him to bring my cavalry to join us as soon as possible and follow the army in pursuit!"

"Be sure to break through the entire Baierqin Pass before the Wei army escapes to Guandong, and push the battle line to Hangu!"

"If we're lucky, maybe we can take a look outside Luoyang City."

The mountain road from Hongnong County to Hangu is the Weihan North Road, which is an important transportation line connecting Guanzhong and Guandong.

This road goes hand in hand with the Yellow River. It is full of galloping roads built since the Qin Dynasty, so transportation is not difficult.

The only headache for the Han army was the passes along the way from Hongnong to Hangu. The numerous passes known as the Hundred and Er Qin Pass are each easy to defend and difficult to attack. If you try to gnaw them down one by one, you will not be able to catch up with the Wei army.

However, at this time, Yang Zhun came forward and told Ma Su that there were many pass guards along the way who were related to their Yang family. As long as he brings documents from the Yang family, many places will surrender without a fight.

Under this, Ma Su began to march eastward with 3,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry. Along the way, we encountered more than ten passes, and most of them opened their doors and surrendered in the name of the Yang family.

Some of those who did not surrender were killed by internal rebellion when the Han army launched an attack. Finally, when Ma Di asked, it was all the work of the Yang family.

Although the smooth progress of this series made Ma Su somewhat satisfied, he also gained a new understanding of the heritage of the Yang family and even the entire super-large family.

In Yizhou, the strongest family he met was just a bunch of plucked wealthy locals. It wasn't until he came to Guanzhong and met the Yang family that Ma Su realized how amazing the influence of the super-large family was.

Even though the Yang family has experienced suppression from three generations of the Cao family and has been basically excluded from the rank of Jiuqing, it still has a huge influence at the grassroots level. Even in places he couldn't control, there were still a large number of die-hard family loyalists waiting to sacrifice their lives for the family.

"These super-large aristocratic families have to find new ways to deal with them. They can't just cut them down..." Ma Di touched his chin and frowned as he thought.

The Yang family must not be moved. He represents the investment of the entire Guanzhong family. When the Han Dynasty was short of people everywhere, Ma Di had to restrain himself.

However, Ma Di still began to think about how to deal with the big Kantong clan after they hit Kantong. After all, as a wealthy family that started in the Eastern Han Dynasty and has lived till now, they are no worse than the Yang family.

Under their many years of management, Kanto is truly called the local emperor.

When the Han army goes eastward, dealing with the great clans in Guandong will become a key issue. Ma Su had already begun to think about how to deal with this group of people.

Baier Qinguan was destroyed by the Yang family's face power with almost no fighting. Ma Di marched quickly all the way and finally caught up with the Wei army near Hangu!

However, even though they had already chased them here, Wei Jun still did not let down his guard. After seeing the Han army chasing them, Guo Huai, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly led his troops to attack.

These generals in Guanzhong have long been familiar with Ma Su's character. Especially Guo Huai, he knows very well that Ma Su cannot be stopped from a distance. If he wants to beat you, he can chase you thousands of miles away.

Ma Su was a little surprised when he saw that the Guanzhong Army did not cause a commotion. However, after reacting, Ma Di strengthened his belief and must not let this group of Guanzhong troops leave.

Otherwise, how could he make sudden attacks in the future?

For a time, war broke out again between the Han army and the Wei army in Hangu.

At the same time, in Luoyang City, Cao Rui was seeing a doctor in the palace. The continuous bombardment of bad news in the past few years has given Cao Rui a headache, which is no worse than that of his grandfather.

"Your Majesty, your headache is not too serious. You can recover after taking a good rest." After the imperial doctor diagnosed and prescribed medicine for Cao Rui, he carefully told him.

"Recuperate? The current situation in the Wei Dynasty is so difficult, how can I still have the conditions to recuperate." Cao Rui smiled bitterly, waved to the imperial doctor gently and said.

"During this period, there are battle reports every two days, and each time it is a huge defeat. Faced with this kind of battle situation, I am not in the mood to rest at all."

While he was talking, there was a sudden noise outside the palace, and several guards rushed in.

"Your Majesty! Something big has happened. The Shu army has left Hangu, and Shu general Ma Su has led his troops to Heyin."

"Look, how can I rest in such a situation, especially since Ma Di has already hit the river...Wait a minute? Where did Ma Su hit?"
