Chapter 225 Zhuge Liang joins the battlefield
Ma Su basically never fought against Cao Wei's regular army, and even if he did, it was only a small number.
Ma Di did not actually fight against the elite Wei army, which caused him to seriously misjudge the Wei army's combat power. He believed that the Wei army's combat power would be comparable to that of the famous northwest general Hao Zhao.
In fact, neither Wang Shuang nor Hao Zhao led front-line troops. The Guanzhong Legion, which is truly capable of conquering and fighting, has always been deployed in northern Xinjiang to guard against the northern barbarians.
This time they collided rashly, and Ma Su felt something was wrong as soon as they met.
The major fortresses can no longer be destroyed in a single rush at night as before. On the contrary, the Wei troops in each camp did not need to greet them, and quickly took up their weapons to defend themselves.
This gave Ma Su only time to break through the fourth camp and kill hundreds of people before he could no longer move. Blocked by the camp, Ma Su could not withstand the attack even if he tried his best.
This feeling surprised Ma Su, but he soon stopped caring.
You are so scared, I will fight with you today. Even if your camp is made in China, I have to turn it upside down for you!
Unless you kill me today, I will stay here today and never leave!
"Soldiers! Follow me and shoot! Even if you can't rush in, it won't make things easier for the Wei people!" Ma Di waved his hand and led his soldiers and horses to quickly shuttle between the camps, constantly shouting and shooting.
In ancient times, if a battalion had 1,000 people stationed in it, 30,000 people would need to set up more than 30 camps. The various fortresses take care of each other, but they are not completely connected. There are always gaps in the middle.
Ma Di penetrated these joints and crushed anyone who dared to resist. More than a thousand veterans who were good at riding, shooting and throwing followed Ma Su, constantly causing trouble for the Wei army.
"Chen Tai is dead! Whoever surrenders will avoid death!"
"Chen Tai is dead! Whoever surrenders will avoid death!"
"Chen Tai is dead! Whoever surrenders will avoid death!"
The Han cavalry rushed around while shouting constantly in an attempt to shake the morale of the Wei army. As long as there is a commotion in a camp, Long Wuyi will quickly surround it and break it.
But it's a pity that Ma Su's little calculation was very loud, but Wei Jun didn't care about him at all. After receiving the attitude of their generals to stay still, the various fortresses also settled down and stood firm.
The general didn't even panic. He didn't react except that he was annoyed by the noise. What did he have to fear?

Just when the Wei army was in full swing, each battalion stood firm without fighting, preparing to drive Ma Su away. In the Baoxie Road, a large army slowly came out of the Qinling Mountains.
The leading general is Chen Shiye, and the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army is "Zhuge, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, the Marquis of Wuxiang"
After more than ten days of marching, the prime minister finally left Hanzhong with 20,000 Shu troops.
"General! Ahead is the exit of Baoxie Road. There are two roads to take." Chen Shi was in the middle army and reported to Zhuge Liang on horseback who was still sitting on the four-wheeled vehicle.
"To the east, you can go straight down the Wei River to martial arts, threatening Chang'an. To the west, you can follow the mountain road to Wuzhangyuan, threatening the Weishui water channel and the three assistants in Guanzhong!"
"Don't worry about the direction of martial arts, the whole army will go straight to Wuzhangyuan!" Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan with a very serious expression.
"We are here to pick up Ma Di, the general of the auxiliary country. We cannot take risks easily."
"I estimate that with You Chang's character, when he leaves the Ziwu Valley, he will definitely attack the three auxiliaries in Guanzhong and cut off the enemy's food routes. Our army will be stationed at Wuzhangyuan, and we will send a messenger to find Ma Su and find a way to get him back."
This time Zhuge Liang went to Baoxie Road, there is a high probability that it will be written in the history books as Zhuge Liang's second Northern Expedition. However, in the conscience of heaven and earth, the prime minister had only one purpose in going out to the praise lane this time, and that was to take Ma Su back.
Ma Su, Ma Su, why do you keep giving me so much work!
But just when Prime Minister Zhuge had a headache, the scouts in front suddenly came back to report.
"General, there is a large Wei army stationed at the place where Wu Zhang was! But now the Wei army camp is in chaos, and it seems that someone is attacking the camp!"
"The original Wei army in Wuzhang?" Zhuge Liang's expression changed and he immediately thought of the worst case scenario.
If the Wei army had been prepared, this would have been a battle with unknown outcome...
But soon, Zhuge Liang reacted and grasped another important point.
"Wait, someone is attacking the Wei army camp?"
"It seems that...someone saw the Wei army's camp in flames from a distance, and the sound of fighting was loud."
"Could it be that General Ma had already guessed that we would come out of Baoxie Road, so he planned to lead troops to meet the Wei army in advance?" Chen Shi was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously.
Hearing Chen Shi's words, Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed with a complicated look.
If that's the case, then... that guy Ma Su took my reaction into account, right?
"Immediately send people to explore the nearby mountains to see if there is an ambush! If it is confirmed that the Wei army has no ambush, immediately send troops to attack Wuzhangyuan!" Zhuge Liang only hesitated for a moment, and quickly issued the order, preparing to attack the Wei army in Wuzhangyuan.

When the main force of the Shu army came out along the Baoxian Road, Ma Di had already charged and killed countless people in the Wei army camp.
Long Wuyi has been fighting for so many years and is already a master of hundreds of battles. But even so, when the army rushed to kill the three tong drums, the Wei army still remained unmoved, which already explained the problem.
They are not experienced babies, and they cannot be defeated by you alone.
However, Ma Su was not in a hurry, and instead continued to fight in the Wei camp with his troops and horses. Even though the Wei army had begun to prepare in an orderly manner to cut off his retreat, Ma Di did not retreat.
"Young Ma Di is so arrogant! You've come to this point and still want to take credit!" Chen Tai was lying on the bed and snorted disdainfully when he heard the report.
"Solve it yourself! We can't let Ma Di run away!"
"only!"
Chen Tai's immobility gave the Wei army the freedom to encircle him. The Wei army began to move up and down, intending to surround Ma Di.
Just when the army was preparing to encircle, suddenly there was a burst of war drums outside!
This incident immediately caused the expression of Lieutenant Wei on the periphery to change, and he felt that something was wrong.
The vanguard cavalry of the Shu army rushed to kill the three-tong drum, and theoretically they were already weak. But at this time, you told me, there are still troops outside the Shu Army?
Before they could react, there was a sudden loud shout outside. Countless Shu army officers and soldiers came out of the darkness as if falling from the sky!
The pioneer general, Chen Shiye!
Thanks to Ma Su, the scouts sent by Chen Tai to investigate Baoxie Road were blocked outside. But Chen Tai had been lying still, so that he didn't even notice that the Shu army had arrived!
The Wei army officers originally thought that this was just an ordinary night attack. However, when a large number of Shu soldiers suddenly appeared from the periphery, shouting to join the battlefield, they found that something seemed a little wrong.
In the darkness, I don't know how many Shu troops there are. I only know that enemy troops are constantly coming out.
The Wei army is in chaos! A large number of soldiers began to panic!
"Oops! We're ambushed!"
