Chapter 795: The Battle of Bowang (2)

Tai Shi Ci was raising his gun to kill, and suddenly heard the sound of hooves in the distance like thunder in his ears, and he was overjoyed, and immediately knew that it should be his own reinforcements arriving. He stabbed to death a Cao soldier who was in the way, raised his gun and shouted: "Reinforcements are coming, sons, kill with me!" At this time, the Han army also heard the movement from far and near, and its morale was greatly boosted, and its tired body seemed to be re-energized. Then he danced his sword and spear again, and pounced on him with a roar.

At this moment, a rain of arrows shot out, flying towards Tai Shici like a storm. While the guards around Tai Shi Ci raised their shields in time, they snatched them out and blocked in front of Tai Shi Ci. This is the case, Tai Shici couldn't dodge, and in his left arm and shoulder socket, he was also hit by an arrow.

After being hit by the arrow, Tai Shici's body shook, his legs firmly clamped the horse's belly, and he stabilized his balance, but his right hand still held on to the spear and did not give up. Tai Shi Ci was furious, suddenly raised his head, looked at Cao Jun in front of him, and shouted: "Guts rats, who dares to fight me?" Cao Jun hesitated.

Xiahou Yuan saw it in a high place, his face sank like water, and he ordered: "Tai Shici has been injured, break through it quickly, and then break through." If you can't catch it, you can't entangle it, and you can repel it. ”

The drums of Cao's army to launch a general attack sounded. Cao Jun, who was like a tide, listened to the sound of drums, and pounced on him wave after wave. Tai Shici was surrounded by his own soldiers and retreated. The general was seriously wounded and could no longer be allowed to rush to the front line. Tai Shi Ci looked back and saw the flags fluttering a few miles away, and his heart was completely steady. He said to the left and right: "Drag Cao Jun to death, don't let Xiahou Yuan escape." ”

At this time, the Han army and the Cao army have been completely strangled together, you have me, I have you. As far as the eye can see, there are shouts and fights all around. Cao Jun was bent on leaving, and Han Jun was bent on staying. Both sides did their best. In the end, Xiahou Yuan led the elite to break through the siege and quickly marched towards Wancheng.

Tai Shici wanted to stop it, but he had more than enough heart but not enough strength. The troops on his side were insufficient, and he was entangled by the broken Cao army. At this moment, I suddenly heard a loud shout: "Ziyi is panicking, Zhang Fei is also coming!" ”

Zhang Fei led the cavalry and finally arrived. He slapped his horse and raised his spear, and was about to charge into battle, Tai Shi Ci saw it, and hurriedly shouted: "Yide, don't take care of me, go and chase Xiahou Yuan quickly!" ”

Zhang Fei listened, looked up, and saw in the distance, a Cao army was withdrawing, Zhang Fei saw it, and immediately understood, Xiahou Yuan was leaving. No, you must not let Xiahou Yuan enter Wancheng.

Even if all the Cao troops here are killed, if Xiahou Yuan is let into Wancheng alone, the Nanyang war will definitely be in a stalemate. So Zhang Fei reined in his horse, pointed the tip of his spear, and led people to chase Xiahou Yuan.

General Cao here saw that the reinforcements of the Han army went to chase his own general, where was he willing to do it, and he divided a team of troops to snipe Zhang Fei. The battlefield was in chaos. At this moment, another drum was heard, and another army came out in front. It's none other than Ma Chao.

However, it was said that Ma Chao and Xiahou Yuan were at war, and Zhongji was defeated. After retreating, he looked at his subordinates and folded them in half. Ma Chao was not calm at once. He fought like this battle, firstly, he couldn't save face, and secondly, he didn't know how to deal with Zhang Feitai Shici. He is not Liu Bei's descendant, and he wanted to make meritorious contributions, but he lost his troops and lost face. How could he swallow this breath.

At this time, the chief secretary of the army suggested to him: "General, why don't you turn to Luyang, gather soldiers and horses, and attack Luyang again?" If you can break Luyang, it will also be a great achievement. ”

Ma Chao thought about it for a long time, and then said, "You said that Xiahou Yuan went back in a hurry, what did he want to do?" ”

The main bookkeeper said in his heart that this still needs to be asked, isn't this clear that he wants to go back to Wancheng to preside over the overall situation. Just as he was about to answer, he saw Ma Chao and said: "He wants to go back to Wancheng, but I don't like him." ”

Ma Chao said: "Whatever the enemy insists, we must oppose; Whatever the enemy opposes, we must persevere. Thinking about this truth, General Zhang and General Taishi are also clear. In this case, there must be soldiers and horses blocking the way. Walk! Rectify the people and horses, and then chase Xiahou. I don't believe it, I can't break Xiahou Yuan by attacking back and forth! ”

After resting for a day and night, Ma Chao led more than 3,000 people and horses to chase after him. But it came just in time, and met Tai Shici and Cao Jun leading his troops to kill together.

Ma Chao was overjoyed, this was a good time for him to make meritorious contributions, so he jumped on the horse and raised his gun, shouting: "Ma Chao is here!" ”

As soon as the words fell, he rushed in with the song. Tai Shici didn't know which way it was before, but when he looked at it, he saw that it was Ma Chao, and couldn't help laughing: "God help our army!" ”

Cao Jun left Xiahou Yuan first, and just now he sent a group of troops and horses to harass Zhang Fei, and at this time the troops were no longer dominant. The Han army added another new force to come in, and the pressure on the Cao army suddenly increased.

Ma Chao took the lead, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, the big gun shook, several spear flowers flew down, Cao Jun touched one by one, either dead or injured, and immediately screamed again and again.

Seeing this, Tai Shici immediately commanded the troops to start a full-scale counterattack. The two Han armies fought one after the other, pressing the Cao army. Cao's army was defeated and retreated. Seeing that the situation was not good, the deputy general of Cao Jun didn't know where the general had arrived, and he could no longer stay here, so he should break through first. Then he ordered the army to change formation and shrink, and began to move closer to him, and then formed a circle and fought and walked.

The Han army looked at it, and now you want to get out of the battle after fighting for a long time, this is to run. Don't! There were few people before, and I already let you run away, and now I must not let you run away again.

Tai Shici and Ma Chao shook their spirits, fought and killed, and after killing through the enemy formation, they turned back and only rushed the Cao army's large array to pieces. Ma Chao swept his eyes around, and found that the generals of the Cao army gathered a group of songs and wanted to leave, and shouted: "Where is the horseman going!" ”

With a roar, the horse rushed there. The Cao army stopped along the way was stabbed to the ground by Ma Chao, and the rest saw that Ma Chao was unstoppable and scattered. Ma Chao only danced the big gun to the point of water, and fired the whistling arrows, and there were elite horsemen behind him to resist the sneak attack from the side. He galloped and faced General Cao, and after only a few battles, General Cao was defeated and left. As soon as he turned the horse's head, Ma Chao slapped the horse over, and as soon as he sent the gun forward, he stabbed Cao Jiang in the heart.

Cao Jiang died, and the rest of the people couldn't get away if they wanted to, so they had to abandon their weapons and surrender.

Tai Shi Ci chased after him, grabbed Ma Chao and said, "Meng Qi, quickly go and help Yide chase Xiahou Yuan, and leave this place to me." Ma Chao listened, so he followed the direction pointed by Tai Shici and led the army away. Tai Shi Ci stayed behind to clean up the battlefield.

Tai Shici looked at the Cao army all over the ground, and said in his heart, this is also the elite of the Cao army, he and Yide entered Nanyang since they entered Nanyang, and fought many battles, and lost a lot of soldiers and horses under their command, but now they have landed.

So he said loudly: "Although you work for the Cao family, the Cao family is also a Hanchen. You and others are also Han soldiers. How unfortunate it is to be fratricidal today! Those who are willing to serve in the army can stand on the left side, and I will treat them equally; If you don't want to, I will return the travel expenses, and I will not pursue them when I return home. However, if you still vote for the Cao clan after leaving, the next time we meet on the battlefield, it is no wonder that our Han army will not be merciful. ”

With that, most of the people silently walked to the left. In these troubled times, it is natural for soldiers to eat food. The Han army is strong, and it is the king's division, of course everyone knows how to choose.

The rest of the small half of the people, some of them were lightly or seriously injured and could not move, and some of them were tired of fighting and really wanted to go home. Of course, it is inevitable that there will be some diehards of the Cao family in it. Of course, Tai Shi Ci doesn't care. He can't kill all these people, and it's troublesome to screen them one by one, since he doesn't want to stay, then leave quickly. so as not to affect the purity of his troops.
