When everything was ready, Ma Chao took the lead in leading three thousand green dragon riders wearing Shu army uniforms to set off, and his goal was directly at Yangping Pass, which was not far away.Not long after Ma Chao traveled, Ma Dai also began to lead the remaining 5,000 soldiers and horses from the barracks.It's just that the five thousand soldiers and horses led by Ma Chao are all wearing the military uniforms of Zhao Junqing's dragoons from beginning to end, and they have been following behind Ma Chao's army.This time, Ma Dai is playing the role of a hunter, and Ma Chao is a disguised fox, waiting to deceive the enemy's trust.It is not far from the camp to Yangping Pass, and the distance between the two sides is at most more than forty miles.If you run quickly, it will take less than an hour, which is also the arrangement of the Shu army.At the beginning, the Yi was worried that there would be Zhao Jun's men and horses coming to attack Yangping Pass, so they deliberately separated the soldiers and horses, and a large part of them was guarded in Yangping Pass.The other part of the men and horses drove to the outside of Yangping Pass, forty miles away to set up a camp and garrison them.When the time comes, the two sides will form a horn force, and if someone comes to attack either side, they will be able to immediately send troops to give a flanking attack and jointly destroy the enemy.And the most important point is that this camp outside the gate is very secretive, and Yi is convinced that almost no one can easily detect it, but it is still discovered by Ma Chao.Before entering the field of vision of the defenders of Yangping Pass, Ma Chao had been moving forward at a normal marching speed, no matter what, he had to maintain and have enough physical strength and energy at this moment.And Ma Dai led the army and kept a distance of several miles from it, so as to avoid the discovery of enemy outposts.At this moment, the sergeant who was suddenly guarding the gate tower of Yangping Pass saw a large number of people suddenly appear in front of him, and everyone was immediately surprised, and the general in charge of the foreman patrol immediately changed loudly: "Look, everyone, there seems to be a large group of people coming in front, hurry up and inform the general and the lord."
Report the situation here to them, go quickly, this is an urgent military situation. ”After this call, all the people on the city gate tower had already discovered those people, and the whole atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense.Since the Shu army occupied the entire Hanzhong, plus the later Wei army temporarily settled, its soldiers and horses suddenly became much stronger.Even if there are Zhao army's men and horses rampant in Liangzhou, they have not been so close to the Shu army's men and horses to fight, usually that is, after the two sides found the target when the two sides were patrolling, they gathered nearby people and horses to fight.Therefore, these soldiers defending the city live in peace and contentment every day, and they are not worried about any crisis.Like today, it is the first time that a large group of people suddenly appeared, and I would like to ask these worried people how not to be nervous.Just when everyone was surprised, someone suddenly reminded them: "My lord, look, those people and horses look like the clothes of our army, could it be that these people are our soldiers?"
Especially the clothes on their bodies, although they are all in tatters, and some of them are covered with blood, but it can still be clearly seen that these people are all the men and horses of their own Shu army, these people are hidden in the nearby mountains and forests, and the people and horses in the reinforcement camp are why these people are not good to carry in the camp, but they came here, and they are still like this one by one, so it looks like what kind of war has been suffered."
What's going on, what's the emergency?"
just as everyone on the city gate tower was panicking, a familiar roar was suddenly heard.Everyone followed the prestige, it was Zhang Bao, the general of Yangping Guan, who guarded the city.The soldier who was in charge of the foreman immediately reported to Zhang Bao: "General Hui, this time I and the others found that there was a large group of soldiers and horses approaching outside.Moreover, these horses were all dressed strangely, as if they had been subjected to some kind of war, either their clothes were tattered, or they were covered in blood, and they were gradually approaching the city gate tower at this moment. ”After hearing the other party's words, Zhang Bao was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help blurting out: "There is actually such a thing" Immediately, Zhang Bao personally approached the city gate tower, looked at the situation in the distance, and saw a large number of people and horses approaching here with all their might.Judging from this number alone, a few are about two or three thousand.Just when Zhang Bao and the others were curious, they suddenly heard that among the people and horses below, someone opened his mouth and shouted loudly: "Open the city gate quickly, let us in, we are the men and horses in the forest, this time we accidentally encountered the surprise attack of the Zhao army, and many brothers have been killed and injured."
Now those Zhao troops are chasing here with all their might, hurry up and open the city gate and let us in. ”With the coaxing of this person, all of a sudden, the people around responded one after another, and for a while, the entire shout spread almost all over the entire radius.In the face of the begging for mercy from the people below, Zhang Bao did not move at all, and the whole person was surprisingly calm.In the face of this situation, Zhang Bao did not dare to be careless, and he was not completely sure whether the people below wearing the uniforms of Army B were the men and horses of Army B.If these people were those Zhao Jun dressed in disguise, once he let them enter the city, the consequences would be unimaginable.Just when Zhang Bao was nervous, suddenly the sergeant next to him panicked at Zhang Bao again: "General, look, there is a large group of people behind them, which is coming, and there seem to be more people and horses than them."
Looking at them one by one, they are still murderous, wearing Zhao Jun's clothes, obviously they should be Zhao Jun's people. ”This time, Zhang Bao was completely blinded, could it be that this time it was really the camp of Army B and was besieged by the enemy.And those sergeants who ran at the front, could it really be the men and horses of Army B, who were being pursued by the Zhao army at the moment.Seeing Zhang Bao's impassivity, a sergeant couldn't help but stand up and ask anxiously at Zhang Bao: "General, what should we do, do we really want to kill those brothers who are being hunted down?"
But he didn't want Zhang Bao, and after facing the reminders of the sergeants beside him, he still said calmly: "No, we can't be sure yet, whether those people are our brothers or not."
Although we see that those people are being pursued by the Zhao army behind, we still have to be cautious so as not to fall for the tricks of the Zhao army. ”Seeing that Zhang Bao didn't have any movement, the Shu soldiers and horses who were being chased and killed downstairs under the city gate immediately shouted loudly at the city gate: "What are the people on the city tower doing, hurry up and open the city gate and let us in, if we don't open the city gate, we will be killed by those Zhao soldiers." ”Hearing the shouts of the sergeants below, the Shu soldiers on the tower of the city gate couldn't bear it anymore, and at that moment, someone couldn't help but say to Zhang Bao again: "General, these people are our brothers, and they are thousands of people."
If the general didn't ask about this, then these brothers would have died tragically at the hands of the enemy.General, quickly open the city gate and let them in, if you open the city gate at this moment, it should be too late, if it is a little later, those Zhao army's men and horses will be approaching. ”A sergeant beside Zhang Bao said again: "That's right, general, these are all brothers who are the same as our siblings."
If the general doesn't care about these brothers, if it spreads, how should the world treat our Shu army?
”"General, do you really want to die and not save our brethren?"
when one person speaks, it immediately resonates with the others.Perhaps in response to Zhang Bao's thinking, Ma Dai, who was responsible for playing the role of chasing and killing, suddenly led everyone at this time and shouted at the soldiers and horses at the front door: "Kill, kill all those Shu troops, and leave no one behind." ”As soon as Ma Dai's voice fell, thousands of people and horses cheered in unison, and they couldn't help but shout to the sky, spreading all over the radius of a hundred miles, and even Zhang Bao and other generals on the gate of Yangping Pass were also trembling.In the end, Zhang Bao couldn't help it, and shouted at the sergeant guarding the city gate: "Quickly open the city gate tower and let the brothers in." ”After Zhang Bao gave a military order, the sergeants below did not dare to have any hesitation, and hurriedly opened the city gate.With a "creak" sound, the heavy gate was opened, and the Shu army guarding the city gate hurriedly avoided the side and welcomed the men and horses outside.But when the men and horses outside the city rushed into the city, with a flash of cold light, the defenders didn't even have time to snort, and fell to the ground with a stream of blood spraying out.The other Shu troops behind did not react at all, and they were all killed by swords."
Oh no, these people are not our people, they are enemy troops, they are coming into the city, run" That's right, this team deceived the trust of Zhang Bao and others, opened the city gate and rushed in, it was the three thousand green dragon iron horsemen led by Ma Chao.As soon as he entered the city, Ma Chao did not hesitate to raise the sword in his hand, and killed all the defenders at the city gate in one fell swoop.Few fish slipped through the net, and after reacting, they immediately spread their feet and shouted loudly while running for their lives.In just an instant, everyone's shouts reached Zhang Bao's ears on the city gate, and Zhang Bao's heart suddenly chuckled.I didn't expect that this time I was careless, and I actually let these enemy troops enter the city, Zhang Bao couldn't help biting his silver teeth, holding a Zhangba snake spear and raising his arms to all the soldiers on the city gate tower and shouted: "Everyone hurry up and follow me down to seize the city gate, as long as the upper city gate is closed, we will have a chance to block the enemy army." ”That is to say, Zhang Bao took the lead in rushing down the city gate tower with a blade in his hand, thinking that the chaotic crowd below rushed away.In Zhang Bao's view, the most important thing at this moment is to kill the enemy troops near the city gate, temporarily close the city gate, and kill those enemy troops who ran in while guarding the city gate, slowly regain stability, and will inevitably be able to return to the previous normal
