Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

The battlefield situation at this time was generally somewhat biased in favor of the Wei army.

Because of Sima Division's several years of military training, the Wei army had regained its strength. The main body of the Han army is from the eastern part of the Guan Dynasty, and its combat power is not as strong as the Guanzhong army, so it is difficult to suppress the Wei army.

If nothing unexpected happens, Master Sima feels that he will not suffer any losses if the fight continues like this. But when he saw the envoy sent by the heavy cavalry commander, his brows suddenly jumped.

It's broken, I have an ominous premonition...

"General! The Shu army also sent out armored cavalry to intercept them. They have a large number of people and their tactics are much better than ours. We suffered heavy losses!"

The envoy rushed to Sima Shi and reported breathlessly.

"The commander has decided to lead the troops to evacuate. Let me report to you that the armored horses of the Shu army are about to enter the battlefield!"

As soon as these words came out, Master Sima's face suddenly darkened. Then he immediately turned his head and shouted to the general,

"Quick! According to my previous deployment, the entire army will retreat from the battle! Give up all the units that cannot leave the battlefield and retreat to the camp as quickly as possible!"

Sima Division also knew very well how strong the combat effectiveness of heavy cavalry was. If Ma Di were allowed to enter with heavy cavalry, the Wei army would probably be doomed.

Fortunately, Sima Division had already planned for this and had deployed a retreat plan for the generals before the war. So when Master Sima ordered the gold medal, the Wei army did not panic too much, but slowly began to retreat.

Seeing the Wei army retreating, Liu Yin, Jiang Wei and others were overjoyed and immediately led their troops to the battlefield in an attempt to expand their advantage. However, the orderly retreat of the Wei army did not give the Han army any opportunity to take advantage of it. Any soldiers who left the battle formation would be abandoned by them without hesitation.

Under such a cruel retreat method, Cao Wei's main force gradually withdrew from the battlefield. And Longwu Yicong was unable to catch up and expand his advantage due to the heavy armor and huge physical exertion.

Ma Su was also a little unwilling to accept this situation. It was a pity that because the horses were weak and Long Wuyi could not catch up, he could only watch the Wei army retreat.

If this continues, it should be a certainty that the main force of the Wei army will successfully withdraw to the camp and stall for time. Master Sima breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this situation, feeling that he had successfully delayed it.

However, just when Master Sima felt relieved and could even see his own camp, smoke and dust suddenly rose again on the western skyline!

Accompanying this burst of smoke were naturally the cavalry of the Han army! The technical charge of thousands of Han cavalry made the ground tremble.

And what trembled with the earth was Master Sima's heart!

"The Shu army actually made a false shot? Or did they send people to cross the Yellow River from somewhere else?" Master Sima looked at the mighty Han cavalry with a terrible expression on his face.

How could he not see that this was the Han army's back-up plan. In other words, Ma Su may not have planned to beat him to death openly from the beginning, and his understanding of Ma Su was obviously not enough.

"Damn old man! He's too old to die, so cunning!"

Of course, what he didn't know was that Ma Su was actually more confused than him.

"What's going on? Whose general is this? I don't seem to remember that I ordered a backup plan, right?"

"General, these seem to be... the troops of General Zhengbei..."

Shuji's person? It seems like this guy is disobeying military orders again... Huh? Why should I say it again?

"Forget it, these people can always do something good for me." Ma Di was silent for a while, and finally couldn't help laughing.

General Ji Han, who started his career by disobeying military orders, trained all his cronies to be stupid.

Master Sima's calculation was not wrong, and Ma Di himself really had no intention of preparing a backup plan. But... the current situation of the Han army, sometimes Ma Di's words are not so easy to use.

Therefore, the Han general's self-assertion finally shattered Sima Shi's hopes. When a group charge of thousands of cavalry arrived, the Wei army, whose sides were completely exposed, had no power to resist.

The defeat that Master Sima had been trying so hard to avoid, finally failed to escape...

The only thing that made Master Sima feel somewhat relieved was that the camp was already in sight. With advance preparation, the outcome of a complete defeat of the Wei army was avoided.

In the end, the 40,000 Wei troops managed to hide in the camp after losing nearly half of them with the support of the rear army. Sima Shi made a rough calculation and found that this warrior lost more than 20,000 soldiers, and most of the elite troops were lost.

This was still the result of preparation in advance. If he had not been prepared to retreat, Sima Division would not dare to think how much he would lose.

Closer to home, although this loss was expected, it was also outside of Sima Division's deployment. With only this small amount of troops left, Sima Division estimated that the attack could be delayed for another ten days at most.

If he doesn't withdraw after ten days, I'm afraid he won't be able to leave.

"What's going on over there in Yecheng? Zhao is so slow!"

Faced with such an embarrassing situation, Master Sima could hardly contain his anger. If it weren't for the fact that the front line couldn't be moved away, he really planned to personally go to Yecheng and kill those wealthy families who were holding them back.

However, just when Master Sima was in embarrassment, his bodyguard suddenly came in and reported that an urgent letter had been delivered from Yecheng.

Urgent letter! When he heard this word, Master Sima couldn't help but feel his heart twitch.

Could it be that something happened to Yecheng as well?

Late at night a few days ago,

In the Yecheng Palace, Cao Fang was waiting anxiously for something. Behind him, under the dragon bed, lay the corpses of several maids. It can be seen from the wounds on their bodies that someone smashed them to death with a jade seal!

Cao Fang paced around the house anxiously, looking out the window from time to time, waiting for the hero in his heart.

In the middle of the night, Cao Fang finally heard footsteps outside. He hurriedly went to meet him, and when he saw the leader, Cao Lin, the King of Donghai, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty! We are here to protect you!" Cao Lin saluted Cao Fang with dozens of attendants.

"No need to be polite! If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been kidnapped by Sima thieves to Liaodong!" Cao Fang nodded with relief, and hurriedly helped Cao Lin up.

"Your Majesty, this..." Cao Lin hesitated when he saw the bodies of the maids and eunuchs after Cao Fang's death.

"They are Sima Zhao's people, and I have already dealt with them." Cao Fang shook his head gently and said directly.

"Let's go! While the Sima family is busy moving the capital, quickly escort me south to surrender... to Uncle Ba."

For Cao Fang, it is obviously better to surrender to Han than to be held hostage in Liaodong. After all, if he surrenders to Ji Han, he will be humiliated at most, and he will definitely receive the treatment he deserves.

But if he goes to Liaodong...I am afraid that as an emperor, he will live worse than a county magistrate!
