Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 408 The troops enter Guanzhong

In just one night, 100,000 Han troops directly defeated Sima Yi's troops in front.

Instead, they not only attacked in the east and attacked in the west, but in the end they launched an extremely insulting two-sided attack, which completely defeated the Wei army's defense line in front of Sima Yi. Sima Yi arranged the support idea designed for more than half a month, but in the end it became a joke.

Sima Yi, look what you have protected!

With the two-sided attack of Beiying and the fall of Wugong, the Wei army collapsed across the board. The Han army took advantage of the victory and pursued it for more than a hundred miles. In the end, Zhuge Liang was afraid that the pursuit would be too deep and he would be ambushed, so he ordered his troops to retreat, and Sima Yi stopped his decline.

The Battle of Sanfu allowed Sima Yi to finally see the fact that the comprehensive combat effectiveness of the Shu army had surpassed that of the Wei army.

Originally, it was one hundred thousand against one hundred thousand, and the Wei army still had some geographical advantages. As a result, the Shu army broke their camp with such force, and Sima Yi was even more frightened by such fighting power.

"In just a few years, the Shu army has not only expanded its military strength at a very rapid rate, but its combat power has also become so amazing?" Sima Yi stroked his beard, his expression a little uncertain.

The development speed of Shu Han was completely beyond his expectation and exceeded Sima Yi's cognition. At least let Sima Yi replace Zhuge Liang or Ma Di, which he couldn't do.

"Captain! What should we do next? Why not withdraw to Chang'an and defend it!" At this time, Guo Huai stood up and asked for instructions very simply.

He had been frightened by the Shu army. Not only Ma Su, but also other generals and troops could not resist him. If he was stationed in Weibei again, Ma Di might rush to the military tent that night to talk to him.

"It's a pity that so many people in Weibei will fall into the hands of the Shu army..." After hearing what Guo Huai, the number one general in the northwest, said, Sima Yi estimated that the experience of this army was shattered by the opponent, so he could only sigh. He took a breath and said.

The three assistants in Guanzhong failed to stop the Shu army's offensive, and Sima Yi's plan to move all the people in Weibei southward also went bankrupt. With so many people in Zhuge Liang's hands, the pressure he will face may be even greater...

However, it was obvious that the current situation no longer allowed Sima Yi to hesitate. Sima Yi sent people to inform Chen Tai to stop relocation and withdraw to his base, while he led his troops south to cross the Weishui River.

Because Sima Yi had already deployed his retreat route and the pontoon bridge along the Weishui River had been built long ago, Sima Yi's army quickly returned to Weinan. By the time the Han cavalry caught up, most of the Wei army had already crossed the river.

Since then, the entire northern Guanzhong and thousands of miles of land north of the Wei River have been surrendered.

On the other side, after defeating Sima Yi, Zhuge Liang was not in a hurry to pursue.

The Sanfu line in Guanzhong has been occupied by the Han army, and there is no place further east that can be defended. Zhuge Liang was convinced that with Sima Yi's talent, he would not be stupid enough to stay in Weibei and continue to resist.

As long as Sima Yi takes the initiative to withdraw, the Han army can easily occupy half of Guanzhong and gain a population of more than 100,000. Then we can use this as a basis to slowly encroach on Weinan.

So there is no rush to draw Sima Yi at this moment. Before that, Zhuge Liang needs to go back to draw Ma Su!

After deploying a large army to station in Guanzhong Sanfu, and then determining a step-by-step strategy. Zhuge Liang personally came to Wu Gong with a feather duster, saying that he wanted to hear the glorious achievements of the cavalry general in person.

So that day in the entire Han army camp in Weinan, all the generals from the military level up dropped their work and went to watch the Prime Minister beat the Prince and Tutor.

After all, your majesty’s father-in-law beats the prince’s father-in-law. This kind of fun cannot be experienced once in a thousand years...

After spanking Ma Su and listening to Ma Su's fart-like promise as always, Zhuge Liang had no choice but to drive Ma Su away.

"Bo Miao? Why didn't you hold him back?" Zhuge Liang looked at Deng Zhi who was looking embarrassed, shook his head slightly and asked helplessly.

"Ma Su doesn't take his own safety at heart, don't you know? If he dies, how can the Northern Expedition continue?"

Deng Zhi was specially sent by him to supervise the army, specifically to keep an eye on Ma Su. Unexpectedly, even after sending so many people, Ma Su didn't notice and let him attack the city first.

Although Ma Di's siege was unexpected, Zhuge Liang still found it difficult to accept it.

As long as one Ma Su is alive, he is comparable to an army of 100,000. With such a risk, if something happens one day, how can the Northern Expedition continue?

"Prime Minister! This is someone's fault!" Deng Zhi lowered his head in apology with a plaintive look on his face.

"But... the Crown Prince is too strong, I can't hold him back!"

After hearing Deng Zhi's detailed report, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He suddenly found that he had been sending supervisory troops, completely ignoring whether these people could hold Ma Su.

Although this boy started out as a civil servant, his strength was not inferior to that of a military commander. Sending an old comrade like Deng Zhi was indeed a bit lacking in consideration.

Why don't you consider tying that rope?

"Prime Minister! The Wei army has withdrawn to Weinan!"

Just as Zhuge Liang was thinking about it, Ma Dai, who was sent to pursue the Wei army from the front line, came back and reported the results to Zhuge Liang.

"The last general was incompetent. When he caught up with the Wei army, most of it had already crossed the Wei River. A certain enemy defeated his rear troops, but failed to make any big gains."

"It doesn't matter. Sima Yi's behavior is more stable. It's normal that you can't seize the opportunity." Zhuge Liang didn't care about this and waved his hand gently.

"Just force the Wei army away and make them give up the Guanzhong Plain in Weibei."

"By the way, where did Ma Youchang go?"

"Prime Minister, he said that he would go back to the military tent to reflect on his mistakes and reflect..."

"Tell him to stop pretending and lead troops to capture the counties in Weibei. If he fails to capture Guanzhong in time, he will pack up and return to Chengdu to work for Fei Yi!"

When the Wei army withdrew to Weinan and began to set up defenses using the Wei River as a defense line, the Han army also began to move out.

With Ma Su as the vanguard, one hundred thousand Han troops began to march westward, attacking the Weibei Plain that had been abandoned by Sima Yi.

The Han army marched along the main road, attacking cities and territories along the way. Wherever they went, they watched the wind fall.

In particular, most of the local wealthy families have had enough of the oppression of Cao Wei and have been waiting for Shu Han for a long time. Everyone put pots of food on the side of the road to welcome Master Wang to the north of Guanzhong.

In just half a month, a large area of ​​territory west of the Xinghe River surrendered to the Shu Han. Ma Di led his troops all the way to Chiyang, and then encountered Chen Tai leading the Wei army to block the way, temporarily halting his progress.

Zhuge Liang also led his army to Huaili County and camped on the banks of the Weishui River, across the rivers in Chang'an.

Since then, the battle for Guanzhong has officially entered a fierce moment.
