Chapter 370 Who is the prey?
Ma Su suddenly led his troops from the inner city and launched a central attack directly on the Wu army!
At this time, the Wu army led by Zhuge Zhi was no more than 10,000 people, and it was originally intended to keep an eye on the Han army in the city. Normally speaking, it is not a big problem to guard thousands of Han troops with 10,000 Wu troops.
However, because of Ma Su's existence, all this is no longer true.
Because he was used to seeing strong winds and waves with the elite Wei army, Ma Di felt unusually smooth when he attacked the Soochow army. This group of Jiangdong soldiers were beaten by Zhang Liao, but in the end they still had no anti-cavalry experience.
Ma Su led more than a hundred veterans to clash in the Wu army formation, as if there was no one in the desert. After the more than 10,000 Wu troops were suddenly attacked at night and the front army was broken through, they immediately fell into chaos. Many officers once again found a familiar feeling.
The next step should be... to run away!
"What's going on! The Shu army rushed out?" Zhuge Zhi was already lying down, but when he heard a sudden commotion outside, he quickly got up and left the camp. Seeing the chaos in the army, Zhuge Zhi frowned and immediately summoned his soldiers to quell the chaos.
However, at this time, some troops fled and reported to Zhuge Zhi,
"General! The Shu army has come out!"
"It's Ma Di! The ghost general of Western Shu, Ma Di, is here!"
"General, mount your horse quickly! Ma Di has already come to kill you!"
"What the hell! Ma Su? Ma Su is still in Yingchuan now. He can't fly over!" Zhuge Zhi frowned and cursed angrily. At the same time, he put on his armor and prepared to mount his horse.
"This looks like the Shu army in the city has run out of supplies and is preparing for a last-ditch trick! Watch me get on my horse and kill that impostor to stabilize the morale of the army!"
Because of his habitual thinking, Zhuge Zhi was certain that Ma Di was being held back by the Wei army in Yingchuan at this moment. This must be what the Shu army shouted in order to break out of the encirclement. How could Ma Di appear so easily?
If Ma Di was in Xiangyang, they would not be able to break in from the beginning!
With this thought, Zhuge Zhi personally mounted his horse and went out with his own soldiers to kill the impostor himself.
At this moment, Ma Su had led thousands of Han troops to charge left and right, and the Wu army's formation was almost overwhelmed. The Han army burned the camp and killed everyone on sight. Under assaults from all sides, the Wu army was defeated step by step.
Ma Su took the lead, charging and killing dozens of people along the way. But what’s interesting is that even so, Soochow’s self-trampling is not serious. The Wu soldiers scattered and fled at a speed that even Ma Su could not catch up with.
It seems that I have been practicing in Hefei for many years...
"Bold Shu thief! How dare you fight me!" Zhuge Zhi came on horseback. When he saw a white-robed general in front of him clashing, he immediately shouted and chased after him.
As long as this fake Ma Su is killed, everything will be fine!
Zhuge Zhi thought so, and the two met head-on. Ma Su almost subconsciously shot Zhuge off his horse.
While passing by the wrong horse, Zhuge Zhi suddenly saw Ma Su's face clearly through the faint moonlight, and his eyes widened immediately.
"Fuck! It's really him!"
After just one fight, Zhuge Zhi lost his fighting spirit. After all, he suddenly found Ma Su opposite him on the battlefield. What a scary ghost story it was!
Fortunately, because of his poor equestrian skills and strength, Ma Su did not notice that he was the general of Soochow, and only regarded him as a cavalry general. As a result, Zhuge Zhi escaped with his life, and then the Soochow general had no choice but to abandon his helmet and armor, ride a horse and lead his own soldiers, abandoning his troops and ran away.
Ma Su's reputation is so scary that even ten thousand soldiers and horses are no match for him. Zhuge Zhi was afraid that he would run away too late, so he was left behind by Ma Di.
For a time, the Soochow troops and horses in Xiangyang City were in chaos. After the commander and a large number of mid-level and senior officers ran away, the defeat was inevitable. A large number of soldiers were extremely skilled and began to surrender to the Han army in an organized manner. Ma Su won a complete victory for a while!
At the same time, outside Fancheng, Xiang Chong also assembled an army of nearly 20,000 people and went out of the city to face Lu Xun.
Lu Xun had actually expected to attack Xiang Chonghui and had already prepared for it. However, in Lu Xun's plan, the Shu army that was supposed to be demoralized and ready for a last-ditch effort did not exist at all. What greeted him was the elite Han army led by Xiang Chong, who had been holding back for more than half a month.
As a result, despite being prepared and prepared, 30,000 Wu troops fought for an hour and were finally defeated by less than 20,000 Han troops. Ding Feng lost the battle and had to retreat with Lu Xun to Xiangyang.
Ding Feng felt very embarrassed about this, while Lu Xun waved his hands and said he was used to it.
What a big deal. Isn't it normal that Soochow can't beat 30,000 against 20,000?
Isn’t this much better than one hundred thousand against eight hundred?
Anyway, Xiangyang is in their own hands, and the navy is Soochow's strength. As long as Xiangyang is withdrawn and defended, Nanjun will still belong to Soochow.
However, while Lu Xun was calm, he also had a doubt.
Obviously, Xiang Chong's soldiers were not affected by his attack, and their morale was still high. But since the Shu army was able to defeat the Wu army, why did Xiang Chong huddle in Fancheng for so long?
Lu Xun was keenly aware that there seemed to be a problem, but it seemed that it was too late.
Before he could think about it, he saw the flames of Xiangyang Port shooting into the sky from a distance! The Dongwu ships anchored in Xiangyang Port burned with raging fire!
"Wait! What's going on in Xiangyang?" Lu Xun was shocked when he saw this situation. He quickly stopped the army and looked at Xiangyang, his face slightly changed.
At this moment, the former army came to report, and General Zhuge Zhi fled with only a few personal guards. Hearing this, Lu Xun felt dizzy instantly and almost fell off his horse.
How could he not see that something was wrong with Xiangyang! Zhuge Zhi led more than 10,000 troops to besiege the inner city of Xiangyang with thousands of people. Theoretically, it would not be a complete defeat.
As a result, only a few people escaped, and even the boats were now burned. So far, there is only one person who can do this...
"Captain! We have fallen into a trap! Ma Di himself is in Xiangyang City!"
Zhuge Zhi was brought up and fell to the ground crying. The sound of crying made the last luck in Lu Xun's heart disappear.
That's right, Ma Di has been hiding in Xiangyang for a long time and has been watching their actions. The white-clothed river crossing was so smooth before, and it was progressing so smoothly, but it was a trap from the beginning!
At this moment, Lu Xun found that he was suddenly facing a huge crisis.
Ma Di from Xiangyang showed up, defeated Zhuge Zhi, and burned most of their ships with fire. Fancheng and the others were not able to capture it either, and an army of more than 30,000 people was blocked in this small place.
Originally, they came to attack the Shu Han Dynasty and teamed up with Cao Weibao to surround Ma Su. As a result, they were surrounded by the Shu army!
Who is the prey? At this time, Lu Xun finally saw it clearly!
"Ma Su!!"
