Three Kingdoms: Wolong's brother-in-law, tricking Liu Bei into seizing Jingzhou

Chapter 484: The most powerful general of Qin! Is Cao Cao, a hero of his lifetime, really going to p

The iron cavalry rolled in and rushed into the Qin army with the force of thunder.

The Han cavalry arrived too suddenly, and the Qin army had no time to form a battle formation, let alone withstand the charge from the cavalry.

What's more, the Qin army was in a state of panic and had lost all morale. They were only thinking about escaping and had no fighting power at all.

With such military morale and will, even if they formed a military formation, they would not be able to resist the aggressive Han cavalry.

In an instant, forty to fifty thousand Qin soldiers were cut into countless pieces by the Han cavalry and scattered.

The massacre begins.

Thousands of Qin soldiers, like paper, were knocked to the ground by the Han cavalry and ruthlessly chopped into pieces by the Han army's swords.

Ghosts are howling and wolves are howling, the fields are stained with blood!
Ma Chao, who was in the chaos of the army, was so bloodthirsty that he rushed towards Cao Cao and killed him madly.

He raised his gun and swung it down, and all the Qin soldiers who blocked his way were chopped into pieces like ants.

"Cao thief, accept your death——"

Ma Chao's eyes turned bloodshot and he let out an extremely angry roar.

A few dozen steps away.

Cao Cao, who was in a panic, suddenly heard a familiar whistle in the noise, which made his scalp numb.

Suddenly looking up, I saw a familiar figure, like a god of death, breaking through the blood mist and rushing towards me.

"Horse...horse?"

Cao Cao screamed in shock and almost dropped the whip in his hand.

Who else could it be but Ma Chao, the blood-vengeful man who came like a killing god?

But Cao Cao now no longer has any hatred, only endless fear.

"Am I going to die at the hands of this horse today?"

Seeing Ma Chao coming like the wind and unstoppable, Cao Cao was shocked and confused.

Now the entire army has been cut off by the Han army, and it is basically impossible to continue fleeing westwards.

These nearly 50,000 Qin troops were about to be completely annihilated by the Han army.

The key point is that Ma Chao was charging towards him like a mad dog, clearly intending to take his head amidst thousands of troops.

I am afraid that before the 50,000 Qin troops are defeated, I will die at the hands of Ma Chao!

"Your Majesty, don't panic. You still have me, Dian Wei!"

"Zhang Song, protect His Majesty. I will stop this traitor!"

At the critical moment, Dian Wei stepped forward, rode his horse and waved his spear to meet Ma Chao.

A hint of surprise suddenly flashed across Cao Cao's eyes, which were originally filled with despair.

He was so panicked that he forgot that Dian Wei, a brave warrior who could defeat thousands of enemies, was by his side.

Dian Wei’s bravery is enough to resist Ma Chao!
"Ma Chao, the traitor, stop being so arrogant. Dian Wei is here—"

With a wild beast-like roar, Dian Wei urged his horse to gallop, waving double halberds in his hands, and rushed towards Ma Chao.

He went crazy and even the soldiers of his own army who were blocking his way were knocked to the ground without him even blinking.

"Anyone who stands in my way of killing Cao thief must die!"

Ma Chao roared like thunder, kicked his horse hard and pounced forward.

With a silver spear in his hand, filled with hatred for the annihilation of his entire family, he charged towards Dian Wei.

Driven by his loyalty to protect Cao Cao, Dian Wei wielded his two heavy halberds and attacked Ma Chao with great force.

The spear and the halberd collided with a loud bang.

It was as if the sky was collapsing and the earth was splitting.

Two generals who were capable of defeating ten thousand enemies died together.

Although Ma Chao is listed among the Five Tiger Generals, Dian Wei has the style of the evil generals of ancient times. Putting aside his military talent, he can be regarded as the most powerful general of Qin.

The two fought for more than ten rounds in a flash, but they were evenly matched and it was difficult to tell who was the winner. As the two of them were still in a stalemate, the 50,000 Qin troops were in dire straits.

Under the charge of the Han army, which was mainly composed of cavalry, the 50,000 Qin troops were quickly torn apart and fell into the dilemma of fighting each other.

Some of them threw away their armor and weapons and fled with their heads in their hands, while others fled in the direction of Chang'an. Many Qin soldiers from Guanzhong even gave up resistance and knelt down to surrender to the Han army in this unfavorable situation.

After all, for these small pawns, loyalty to someone has nothing to do with position or gains and losses, it's just a matter of making a living.

Previously, Cao Cao occupied Guanzhong, and their wives and children were all in Guanzhong, so it was natural for them to be loyal to Cao Cao.

But now Cao Cao's loss of Chang'an and Guanzhong is a foregone conclusion. Everyone knows that Liu Bei, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, will become the new master of Chang'an and even Guanzhong.

As a native of Guanzhong with his family all in Guanzhong, it was only natural for him to defect to Liu Bei.

Although Cao Cao had Dian Wei to hold back Ma Chao, he was unable to break through the Han army's blockade and continue to flee westward under the escort of the Imperial Guards.

"What should I do, Yongnian? What should I do?"

"Am I really going to die here?"

Cao Cao shouted at Zhang Song in a trembling voice, already filled with sadness and despair.

Zhang Song was also in a state of panic, with sweat pouring down his forehead. Seeing such a dangerous situation, an idea even emerged in his mind:
I am not a loyal minister of Cao Cao, so how can I be buried here with him?
Why not take Cao Cao hostage and then turn around to ask for surrender to Liu Bei? This would be a great achievement and might even earn you an important position in the army of Liu Bei.

With this thought in mind, Zhang Song glanced at Cao Cao with a barely perceptible chill in his eyes.

Just when he was about to put it into practice, his eyes inadvertently glanced towards the north, and suddenly a bright light flashed.

"Your Majesty, we can still go north!"

Zhang Song pulled Cao Cao and pointed north:
"Our army and the Han army are both south of the Wei River. The Han army is doing its best to block our way west to Longxi. Why don't we change our route and head north, straight to the Wei River?"

"As long as we can cross the Wei River, we can leave the Han army behind on the south bank, and we can continue westward along the north bank and retreat to Longxi!"

Zhang Song's words suddenly woke Cao Cao up, and a glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in his eyes, which had been originally filled with despair.

"Change course to the north, retreat to the Wei River, cross the Wei River to the north—"

Cao Cao screamed loudly, turned his horse around and fled.

A group of imperial guards protected Cao Cao and fled north towards the Wei River.

The Qin army, which had not yet collapsed, fled to the north as if it had found a life-saving straw.

At this moment, Dian Wei was still fighting a desperate battle with Ma Chao.

The two have fought for more than a hundred rounds, but it is still difficult to determine the winner.

After a hundred moves, Dian Wei glanced to the side and saw that the Qin army had fled to the north. He immediately guessed Cao Cao's intention.

"Ma Chao, the traitor, I will chop off your head today. If we fight again, I will kill you!"

Dian Wei uttered a cruel word, attacked with a few halberds and forced Ma Chao to retreat, then turned his horse and fled north with the tide.

"How dare you be so arrogant, you bastard? I will chop off your head today!"

Ma Chao cursed loudly, spurred his horse and dragged his spear to chase after him.

At this time, tens of thousands of main forces of the Han army had chased out from the west gate.

The two Han armies joined forces, chasing the Qin army from all directions and rushing towards the south bank of the Wei River.

When Cao Cao and his defeated troops fled to the south bank of the Wei River, they were all dumbfounded.

This place is far away from Chang'an City, there is no ferry, and there is not even a single boat or raft to be seen along the coast.

Even if there are no Han troops blocking the road ahead, how can we escape to the other side without a boat?

Tens of thousands of Qin troops crowded on the south bank of the Wei River, falling into panic, helpless and in a dilemma.

From the southwest, east and three directions, countless Han troops had already swept in, with the intention of encircling and annihilating the Qin army on the shore.

"I, Cao Cao, a hero of my lifetime, am I really going to perish here, at the hands of a mat weaver and shoe seller?"

"The sky has no eyes, the sky has no eyes——"

With nowhere else to go, Cao Cao once again raised his head to the sky and uttered a cry of grief, anger and despair. (End of this chapter)
