Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 499 You are only a little stronger than me

After half a month of confrontation between the Wu army and the Han army, Ma Di finally arrived on the battlefield with reinforcements. After entering Yidao City, Ma Su met Xiang Chong for the first time.

"I have met the Crown Prince and Tutor!" General Zhennan Xiang Chong bowed his hands to Ma Di and greeted him respectfully. Ma Di waved his hand and asked straight to the point.

"Ju Wei, how is the war going now? How fierce is Soochow's offensive?"

"It's not violent, but the Wu army has blocked all the roads outside Yi Dao." Xiang Chong pondered for a while, and then reported to Ma Su.

"If we simply confront Yidao, the Wu army will never be able to break into Yidao City in this life. But because Soochow's navy is so powerful this time, in order to block the river, I have to station the main force here."

"Now Soochow has blocked all the roads, and Wuling County is now isolated and helpless. There is a shortage of troops there, I'm afraid..."

In order to prevent the Soochow Navy from sneaking across the Yangtze River, Xiang Chong gathered most of his troops here. Although Wuling's terrain is dangerous, its military strength is tight, and the main combat force is only the Wuling barbarians.

"It doesn't matter! It's just a bunch of rats. I will rescue Wu Ling." Ma Su didn't care at all and just waved his hand to reassure Xiang Chong. After all, he knew the combat power of the Soochow Army, but that level was really hard to take seriously.

"Speaking of which, how many troops did the Crown Prince bring this time?" After reporting to Xiang Chong, he then asked Ma Su.

"Three thousand elite troops, and three thousand navy recruits." Ma Di also spoke directly.

"So many? Then this battle is settled!" Xiang Chong was shocked and made up his mind, no longer a little panicked.

The Xiang family has a very good relationship with Ma Su, and Xiang Chong also knows Ma Su relatively well. He knew very well how much of a wasteland this big Han hussar general was. He was a man who would not lead more soldiers if he could spare one soldier.

So when he asked Chengdu for help, he was already prepared that Ma Su would not bring too many reinforcements. Even in his opinion, it was normal for Ma Su to ride alone.

Unexpectedly, the Hussars General also brought 6,000 people. This support was not unimportant. In Xiang Chong's view, this battle can already seal the victory.

"You can't say that, after all, I'm just a civil servant." Ma Di waved his hands with a smile and said something modestly, but after looking at the map, Ma Di suddenly thought of something.

Lu Xun personally guarded outside Yi Dao, and the person responsible for the attack on Wuling was probably Ding Feng. And now it is said that Lu Xun is deeply affected by rumors, and only a few veterans still trust him.

In this case...

There was a smile on Ma Di's lips, and he had an idea that could give Lu Xun a fatal blow.

"Send an order to Ma Zhong and ask him to take a few of his servants and meet the Soochow rats with me for a while!"

At this moment, Lu Xun was deploying troops in the camp and exploring the movements of the Han army. So far everything is normal, the Han army has not received much support.

Ding Feng's side was also unstoppable and had already reached Linyuan City. Shu general Xing Daorong held the base high and refused to fight, while Ding Feng was trying to attack the enemy.

So far, everything went well, and Lu Xun breathed a sigh of relief. But before he could relax, the sentry outside rushed back and reported to him urgently.

"Captain! The gate of Yidao City suddenly opened wide, and a group of Shu troops came out under Ma Su's banner!"

"What! Ma Su came so fast!" Lu Xun was shocked. He stood up with a "chang" and ordered hurriedly.

"The entire army is on alert. Each battalion is on high fortification without fighting. They set up antlers and dig trenches. They rely on the Yangtze River water fortification to be on guard. No matter what happens, they are not allowed to leave the camp without permission to provide support!"

Regarding Ma Su, Lu Xun was almost 120% vigilant. Just hearing Ma Su's name made Lu Xun nervous and wanted to withdraw his troops immediately.

However, after giving the order, Lu Xun asked the sentry again,

"How many people did Ma Su bring? Are there more than a thousand soldiers and horses? Are they all cavalry?"

"Uh... No, Ma Su only brought a few followers. It seems that he is not here to fight at all." The sentry was silent for a moment, and then cautiously said to Lu Xun.

"Only a few cavalry?" Lu Xun was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that he had overreacted. He couldn't help but shook his head, and then his eyes showed some doubts.

"What is Ma Di's plan? Could it be that he can break through our military camp with just a few people now?"

"That's all, let's go take a look."

Lu Xun then led the people to the camp, climbed up and looked, and sure enough he saw Ma Di coming with a few people in a swagger.

Ma Su still only brought four or five people with him this time. Except for Ma Zhong, the external sniper, everything else remained the same. The only key change... is that Ma Su and his gang have all replaced their horses with extremely slick white horses, and they all look good.

In fact, since the Han Dynasty expanded its sphere of influence into the north, the Han army has never been short of horses. Especially Ma Su, after his beloved horse was shot to death by Sima Yi, he directly replaced all his followers with thousands of horses, for fear that he would not be able to catch up with the enemy during the war.

"I am the General of the Hussars of the Han Dynasty, the Prince's Tutor, and the Marquis of Wu'an, Ma Su!" Ma Su led several people to the vicinity of the Soochow camp openly and openly, and shouted arrogantly while exploring Soochow's deployment.

"Now that the Emperor of the Han Dynasty has moved his capital to Chang'an, the destiny of the Han Dynasty lies with the Han Dynasty. And the Sun Quan you are loyal to is now just a commoner in the Han Dynasty and has no right to rule Yangzhou and Jingzhou."

"Now everyone in Jiangdong is in danger, and there are dozens of officials who have expressed their loyalty to the emperor. There are even many Yangzhou officials who have written to express Sun Quan's crimes and ask the emperor to remove him from office."

"Today, our Han army has been ordered by the emperor to take back Jingzhou with the destiny of heaven. If you don't want to go against heaven and strike with five thunders, then surrender as soon as possible and don't make a mistake!"

After Ma Di said these words, Lu Xun didn't feel any disturbance in his heart. He just ordered all the ministries to guard carefully, not to fight at the high base, and allowed Ma Di to insult him.

Anyway, you, Ma Su, are telling the truth. As long as I don’t go out, you can’t do anything.

But before Lu Xun's order could be conveyed, he suddenly heard a voice from his camp.

"How brave! I, Han Cong, will accept your head!"

Then the gate of Dongwu camp suddenly opened wide, and a young general led dozens of cavalry straight towards Ma Di. This move frightened Lu Xun, and his first reaction was to order the camp gate to be closed quickly.

When he saw a stupid young man from Soochow rushing over, Ma Su was also stunned. After some hesitation, Ma Su quickly rejected the idea of ​​killing him like this.

But don't scare Soochow, it's better to hold back.

"Ma Zhong!"

"Okay, General! Look at me!"

After receiving Ma Su's hint, Ma Su quickly led his troops to retreat. Han Cong was indeed fooled and led his troops to pursue him.

Ma Su's horses are all the best Xiliang horses, and Soochow can't add them at all. Ma Zhong also took this opportunity to draw his bow and arrow, turned his head and aimed at the Soochow cavalry and began to charge forward.

As a marksman, Ma Zhong's accuracy is naturally undeniable. After the two sides fought for a while, more than a dozen people were shot off their horses by Ma Zhong.

Seeing that it was almost done, Ma Di quickly led his men to turn around and fight back. The Soochow cavalry was penetrated almost instantly and was unable to withstand the counterattack of the Han cavalry.

As for Han Cong, he was defeated by Ma Su in about ten rounds. In the end, he left in embarrassment alone, but he still didn't forget to yell at Ma Su before leaving.

"Lao Deng, you are only a little stronger than me. Wait until I go back and ask someone to kill you again!"
