Leaving Bowangpo, Ma Chaojun received a certain amount of supplies in Wancheng, which was still Fang Yunjun's sphere of influence.

After leaving the wounded in Wancheng and replenishing a batch of grain and grass, Ma Chao directly led the army to continue south. On their way south, the initial target for the real battle was actually Shinno Castle.

Xinye is the place where Liu Xiu, the Guangwu Emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, raised his troops, and it can also be regarded as the place of Longxing in the Eastern Han Dynasty. During the Three Kingdoms period, Liu Bei went to seek refuge with Liu Biao, and was sent to be stationed in Xinye City.

It's just that it is not Cao Cao's army that wants to attack Xinye at this moment, but Ma Chao's army; The defending side was not Liu Beijun, but Cao Cao's army.

Considering that Ma Chao will also take refuge in Liu Bei in the official history, he will become one of the most prestigious 'Five Tiger Divine Generals' in later generations. In this way, it is a bit of a reversal of offense and defense, and what makes people laugh and cry is that Ma Chao was really burned in Bowangpo before.

Ma Chao went all the way south, but he didn't find any trace of Cao Jun, and he was even more annoyed.

Originally, he was young and vigorous, and he suffered from that nest before, and it was when he had nowhere to vent. If Cao Jun fought with him for 300 rounds, then maybe all the anger would be gone. But in this way, there was no trace of Cao Jun for a long time, but it made people angry and had nowhere to vent, and after accumulating like this, the whole person became very bad.

He Ma Chao is indeed a rare god general, and he is only about fifteen years old this year, and he is already a congenital general. But it is precisely because it is the rebellious period of fifteen years old, and teenagers at this time are often more easily provoked, and they will get angry for no reason.

Generally speaking, fifteen years old is about the time when you are in the second year of junior high school, and according to later generations, this time is the period of the second year of middle school. The onset of puberty can lead him to have many unrealistic ideas. They will also behave in a way that is not in line with reality.

True. The men of this era were precocious. But the youthful spirit will not be completely worn out because of this.

Cao Cao is already forty-five years old this year, and his eldest son Cao Ang is already in his twenties, so he naturally knows what kind of virtue a young man is. So there was a targeted fire to burn Bowangpo, but the effect was outstanding.

Now it is a targeted reduction of troops, and he does not fight with Ma Chao head-on, and he suddenly remembers Ma Chao's shouting.

Finally, the two sides still met! At that time, Cao Cao was on the way south to Xinye. On a hillside, they drank and played with Xu Chu and others, and even played music for them.

On the hillsides on both sides, it was quiet and quiet, and there was no one, but there was a banner, with five big characters on the book, 'Ma Chao gave the first place', Ma Chao looked at it with the help of a telescope, and suddenly shouted angrily.

Then he took off the strong bow on his back and shot the banner down with one arrow.

It doesn't matter if the banner is shot down. As if to signal, a large number of logs and rolling stones suddenly slid down the hillside in two places. Smashed directly into their army. Cao Cao had used this trick in Bowangpo before, but he didn't expect that the soldiers would not get tired of cheating, so he actually used this trick here again.

Fortunately, this time Pang De and Ma Dai were prepared and did not let Cao Cao succeed. Ma Chao directly blasted these messy things away, and then planned to pursue Cao Cao, but the family had disappeared without a trace.

Ma Chao, who was out of breath, was really speechless, and could only scold Cao Cao for being despicable and shameless, but he always felt that there was no way to vent the resentment in his heart. It took another two hours for the army to clear the road before they were able to set off, and it was already evening when they arrived at Shinno Castle.

The spies came to report at this time, Xinye City was empty, and Cao Jun was nowhere to be seen! Ma Chao didn't believe it, so he sent more people to investigate, and the result was the same as reported by the spies before, so he led the army into the city to check.

Shinno Castle, which used to be quite prosperous, is now a completely ghost town, empty and empty. According to the testimony of the vanguard, all the houses here have been emptied, except for some furniture, and almost everything of value has been taken.

Not to mention the enemy army here, even the common people may not have one. The whole of Shinno Castle is now a paradise for wild dogs and rats, but if they can't find food, they will have to leave Shinno Castle in the end.

"Can you see Cao Jun around Xinye City?" Ma Chao asked again.

"There is no trace of Cao Jun within a radius of ten miles." The scouts reported.

"Why don't you expand to fifty miles?" Ma Chao asked again.

"The three gates of the southwest and north are fine, and the east gate is ten miles away from the Baishui River, if you want to explore the road further, you must cross the river. However, Cao Jun seems to have been prepared, and no ferry boat was found near the riverbank! The spy replied in embarrassment.

"Forget it, tonight shift alert, the army rests on the spot!" Ma Chao was a little relieved when he heard this.

Thinking that it was getting late, and the most important thing was that the soldiers who were marching and dealing with the rolling stones and logs were very tired today, I planned to rest here for the night.

"Those Cao Jun are all gutless bandits, and they don't even dare to fight in a dignified manner!" After arranging the defense issue, Ma Chao came directly to Pang De and Ma Dai, and said in a somewhat complaining tone.

"Cao Cao is good at using treacherous tricks, and the general must not be guarded against!" Pound thought for a moment and kindly reminded him.

"No one else is here, how can I use it?" Ma Chao disagreed.

He also ignored two points, one was that they hurriedly entered the city to check, and they had not really taken over the defense. There were no soldiers on the walls to take over the defenses, which meant that they didn't look up at the rooftops; After all, there was no such thing as flying away from the sky in ancient times, so the ancients were not very accustomed to paying attention to the direction of the sky.

As for the other one, it's underground! If you give him enough time to investigate, he may not be able to find it, but the problem is still the same, that is, the time they have entered the city is too short, and many things have not yet been able to unfold!

And Cao Cao will not allow them to conduct an in-depth investigation at all! Everything was in his plan, and Ma Chao and they arrived in Xinye City after nightfall, which made his plan even more perfect.

At this time, a large number of soldiers came out of the secret cellars prepared by the large families, and quickly began to set fires. Since most of the buildings were made of wood, and the roof was stacked with a lot of thatch and oil, the fire spread rapidly.

And not just in the city. Even the three gates were quickly set on fire. The fire formed a wall of fire. Directly blocked the way out. There were also many enemy arsonists who kept throwing grenades at Ma Chaojun, which exerted 200% power in this narrow environment, killing and injuring many soldiers in an instant.

"General, now the three gates of the east, west and south have been on fire, and most of the buildings have been burned, but the fire on the east gate is relatively small! Checkmate. Time is running out, let's break through! The spies came to report in a panic.

Looking at the situation now, everyone knows that the other party deliberately gave up the east gate in order to break through for them. It's just that so far, Ma Chao has no choice, just because if they don't break through, then the only result is to be burned alive!

The army quickly broke through to the east gate, and soon came to the edge of the white water.

At this time, Cao's troops, who had been in ambush for a long time, began to rush towards Ma Chao's scattered troops. Launched an attack directly on the rear army of Ma Chao's army. Ma Chao was helpless and instinctively wanted to cross the river. Then regroup on the other side of the river and deal with it again.

Tens of thousands of troops quickly crossed the river, and before that, 5,000 soldiers were either burned to death or killed by the Cao army that followed.

Thankfully, the water level in the Whitewater River is not very high, that is, to the extent of the horse's chest. Not to mention cavalry, even if the infantry has to cross the river, it is not a problem.

But he didn't want the army to cross the river halfway, only to hear a rumbling sound, a huge stream of white water swept upstream, which frightened the group of northern men. Most of them can't swim, including Ma Chao, Pang De and Ma Dai.

It turned out that Cao Jun had been in the upper reaches of the Baishui River for a long time, blocking the river with sandbags, and at this moment, taking advantage of the other party's crossing of the river, he directly broke the temporary dam, and suddenly the river poured out, directly drowning Ma Chaojun.

Most of the horses were swept away by the flood, and the soldiers were also swept to pieces, and there was no way to form a formation.

There were no soldiers who crossed the river, and they were also frightened at the moment, and there were no generals, they could only meet under the command of middle and low-level officers, but Xu Chu and Yue Xi, two innate martial artists, blasted a bloody road with nirvana, and at the same time, Cao Jun threw it violently with a grenade without money, which made Ma Chaojun almost fall into a situation of being beaten passively.

As for the scattered soldiers who were washed away by the flood, some of them returned to the shore, and at this moment their equipment had almost been washed away by the flood, and they could not even fight without defense.

Some of them came to the other side of the river, but they didn't want Cao Cao's headquarters to suddenly kill them, so they directly surrounded them.

"Cao thief, do you dare to fight with a certain one?" Ma Chao and the three of them were relatively far ahead, and with good riding skills, they went ashore first, and when they saw Cao Cao killed, they suddenly turned red in their eyes, and directly raised their guns to kill Cao Cao.

"Ma Chao'er, don't drink milk at home, why do you go into battle to send him to death?" Cao Cao laughed, and really killed him directly.

Both sides are innate generals, but compared to experience and force, Cao Cao almost completely defeated Ma Chao. Ma Chao even used a nirvana today, but he has not yet been recuperated, and his strength can only be exerted less than fifty percent.

The two sides staggered, and Ma Chao's yellow sand Wanli barely had an effect, but it was Cao Cao's sword nirvana 'Reverse Me Must Kill' that played a miraculous feat, sweeping Ma Chao directly off the horse. Immediately, some soldiers tied Ma Chao with iron cables.

"Surrender, otherwise Ma Chao will definitely die!" After capturing Ma Chao, Cao Cao pointed at Pang De and Ma Dai with the Heavenly Sword to threaten.

"Leave me alone, kill Cao Cao!" Ma Chao jumped in the back, but he didn't want Cao Ren to gagged his mouth with a rag.

"We surrender......" Pound and Ma Dai glanced at each other, and they both saw the bitterness in each other's eyes.

Now that the army has been slaughtered, what's the use of continuing to resist? Especially Ma Chao is still the eldest son of the Ma family, and he is the son of the Ma family with the greatest expectations, no matter what, he can't have an accident!

The army surrendered, and more than 8,000 people became prisoners of Cao's army.

"Lord, this big victory, the Central Plains of Beiding is just around the corner!" The generals of the Cao army suddenly jumped up, and even they seemed to have confidence again, planning to have a real decisive battle with Fang Yun or something.

"Everyone listen to me......" Cao Cao shook his head and spoke slowly. (To be continued.) )

PS: The burning of Xinye actually did not appear in the official history, which can be regarded as Luo Guanzhong's hindsight behavior. However, in this time and space, Cao Cao used it. It's not that Ma Chao is incompetent, but he is really too young, according to Baidu's results, he was only fifteen years old at the time, and it was the time of the second year of middle school. It's not strange to make a mistake, or it's okay to make a mistake, it's not a good thing to rise too quickly.
