Chapter 431 Is that the end? Maybe not
Chapter 431 Is this the end...? Maybe not
Although Xinpi was very wary of Ma Su, he had repeatedly overestimated Ma Su's technical and tactical level. But it's obvious that even so, Ma Su can still give him a big job.
Surrounded by tens of thousands of Wei troops, it has three floors inside and three floors outside, stretching for several miles. At any time, in this situation, the defense line must be closed and stand firm as much as possible to wait for reinforcements.
Only to delay the time longer and wait for reinforcements to arrive is what a normal person would think.
But Xinpi never expected that Ma Su, as a veteran general in the battlefield, would choose to counterattack in this situation! With his troops completely at a disadvantage, Ma Di brazenly led his troops to launch a counterattack.
Because it was completely unexpected, and because no one could withstand Ma Su's attack, the Wei army's vanguard was crushed and a hole was torn open. The Han army effortlessly broke through the blockade of the Wei army's vanguard, and under the leadership of Ma Di, headed straight for Xinpi's commander's flag!
They want a decapitation operation!
Just do what you say, Ma Di's decisiveness once again gave the Han army an excellent opportunity. Nine hundred elite soldiers fought almost with their lives, killing hundreds of Wei troops and directly penetrated Wei Jun's defense line. In just a quarter of an hour, the Wei army's frontline commander's flag was already in sight.
"Holy shit! Ma Di is coming for me?" Xinpi saw the sudden change in the situation on the front line. In the blink of an eye, Ma Di was already close at hand. Xinpi's face suddenly changed.
"Run!"
Although he seemed to be more than ten years older than Ma Su, Xinpi was not stupid enough to use his advisor's body to fight against the victorious Ma Su. So facing Ma Di, who was charging all the way towards him, Xin Pi ordered a retreat without saying a word.
But at this time, it was no longer so easy for Xinpi to run away.
In order to quickly surround the Han army, the Wei army basically pressed forward. In order to prevent Ma Su from breaking out, the Wei army surrounded them layer by layer like spreading pancakes.
The advantage of this is that if Ma Su wants to break through and rushes out layer by layer, his speed and endurance will be weakened. But the downside is that when Simpi himself wanted to run away with his own soldiers, he found that his own troops were everywhere, and they moved extremely slowly.
Seeing Ma Su close at hand, Xinpi made a decision quickly after hesitating for a moment.
Throwing down the commander's flag and personal soldiers, he forcibly broke out of the crowd on horseback.
Anyway, it’s not just him who is the handsome flag, Wang Ji’s handsome flag also has appeal. Although the fall of his commander's flag would cause chaos for the Wei army for a period of time, Xinpi still felt that his life was more important than it.
So, Ma Su, if you go to cut down the handsome flag, you can't come to cut me down!
However, Simpi's luck soon came to nothing. Xin Pi appeared as soon as he turned his head. Ma Su divided some people to cut down the commander's flag, and then chased after him himself.
Ma Su passed through the pass and beheaded the generals along the way. Because of his rapid movement, the soldiers of the Wei army were unable to coordinate the encirclement.
"Old man Xin! How dare you dismount and fight!" Even though he was trapped in the thousands of Wei troops, Ma Di still insisted on chasing Xin Bida.
"Haha, I don't dare!"
But Xinpi was not stupid either. He just glanced at him and fled at full speed on his horse. Facing the siege of the Wei army, Ma Di was unable to do anything to Xin Pi for a while.
Xinpi's situation at this time was as if a fighter had provoked Dou Emperor to chase him, but he was not panicked at all, because Dou Emperor's horse was not as fast as him...
Under the current circumstances, Xinpi would obviously have the advantage if he continued to delay. As long as the Han army's physical strength is almost exhausted, sooner or later they will be overwhelmed by tens of thousands of Wei troops.
Thinking of this, Ma Su frowned slightly and quickly made a decision.
"Ma Youchang, if you want to catch up with me, you have to..." Xinpi felt that he was getting farther and farther away from Ma Su, and he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. Immediately he was about to mock Ma Su, but before he finished speaking, Xinpi felt a chill in his heart!
A sharp spear point suddenly emerged from his chest, and the tip of the spear was still stained with blood.
"What...what..." Xinpi turned his head with difficulty and glanced at the distance between him and Ma Su in disbelief.
At a distance of nearly thirty or forty steps, Ma Su forcefully threw his double-headed gun and killed him?
What kind of overlord is alive!
Xinpi was not as good as his eyes until his death, and he actually experienced Yan Liang's treatment before he died.
He was attacked by the enemy general and died in his own army!
"Huh...this is enough!" Ma Di watched Xinpi fall from a distance, and breathed a sigh of relief before he could even close his eyes before he died.
Although it was indeed risky to carry out a beheading operation in a sudden attack, Ma Su did win the bet. In the end, Xinpi failed to escape from his pursuit and was killed directly in the formation.
It is enough to die here now. It is impossible for the Wei army without its commander to support Chang'an.
From the beginning, Ma Su did not prioritize delaying time to survive. What he has to do is to maximize the damage to the Wei army. The more risks he takes, the better. Death on the spot is the best choice.
With such a purpose in mind, Ma Di finally caught Xin Pi off guard.
However, that’s about it!
Ma Su put his hand on his sword, but found a feeling of weakness all over his body. Only then did he realize that his injuries seemed to have almost reached the point where Weinan was about to fight, and the number of soldiers behind him had been reduced by more than half.
Charged all the way through the Wei army's thousands of troops, Ma Di couldn't dodge all the attacks even if he dodged to the max. Coupled with Ma Su's relentless pursuit, there were scars all over his body.
"It seems like it's over here?" Ma Di looked at the Wei army that was getting closer and closer, and shook his head slightly.
"Is it over here? Ma Su?" On the other side, Wang Ji also looked closely in Ma Su's direction and couldn't help but murmured.
He had watched Ma Su chase Xin Pi just now. But he pretended not to see anything. It was not until Xinpi was killed that he urgently gathered an army and surrounded Ma Su again.
At this moment, Ma Su was at the end of his strength in his eyes, and there were only less than two hundred guards left around him. Perhaps all it takes is one final blow and Ma Su is completely doomed.
"This famous general from Xishu is really scary. He has reached this point. He almost stood out in the battle between trapped beasts." Wang Ji wiped the sweat from his forehead, but found that the palms of his hands were also soaked with sweat due to nervousness.
"But it's finally time to end!"
Both sides of the battlefield, regardless of Ma Su and Wang Ji, breathed a sigh of relief. If the battle ends at this point, it will basically be a happy outcome for both sides.
Unfortunately, sometimes things are not that simple.
Is this the end of it...? Maybe not.
Just when Wang Ji was deploying his army to surround Ma Su, he suddenly heard a commotion in the rear army. He didn't pay much attention at first, just thinking it was caused by the soldiers' fear.
But he soon realized something was wrong, as the commotion in the rear began to become more and more apparent. Not only were the soldiers shouting in fear, but there were also extremely obvious sounds of fighting!
"Aren't they friendly forces? What do they want to do?!"
"The reinforcements coming from Hongnong are rebels! They are attacking us!"
"We have rebels among us! Go call the general!"
