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

Cheng Gongying knew better than anyone how strong Ma Chao was.

Who do you think you are? Do you think you are worthy enough to fight with Ma Chao?
escape!
This word popped into Cheng Gongying's mind for the first time.

However, Ma Chao came too fast and was blocked by chaotic troops on all sides. In just a few breaths, he had no time to escape.

We have no choice but to fight.

"Cheng Gongying, you bastard, where are you going to escape to!"

Ma Chao didn't give him a chance to think and started shouting.

A silver spear in his hand, filled with all his hatred, stabbed forward with great force.

"Damn it!"

Cheng Gongying secretly groaned, but had to grit his teeth and use all his strength to swing his sword to block.

The two horses collided with a loud bang.

Two weapons, wrapped in blood mist, struck each other in a flash.

A metallic sound pierced the eardrums.

A howl of pain was heard.

A long sword flew out of his hand.

Under Ma Chao's powerful attack, Cheng Gongying's long sword was knocked out of his hand, blood spurted out of his mouth, and his body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string.

"boom!"

The huge body fell heavily to the ground.

Vulnerable.

Cheng Gongying fell to the ground and hit his body on the ice, causing his head to bleed and several bones in his body to be broken.

"I can't even resist one move?"

Cheng Gongying was filled with horror and felt excruciating pain in his body.

He ignored the physical and mental pain and struggled to get up and escape.

Of course he knew what the consequences would be if he fell into Ma Chao's hands.

Liu Bei might spare his life, but Ma Chao would never let him go.

He doesn't want to die yet.

"Cheng Gongying, do you think you can escape?"

When he struggled to stand up, Ma Chao's towering body like a mountain appeared before him.

The bloody tip of the gun was pressed against his forehead in a playful manner.

Cheng Gongying shuddered, his body became as stiff as ice, and he dared not move at all.

"Meng...Mengqi..."

He uttered two words tremblingly, and there was even a hint of flattery in his expression and tone.

Ma Chao looked down at him and said coldly:
"Cheng Gongying, you turned against me and caused me to be defeated at Weishui and forced to flee Longxi. Did you ever think that one day you would fall into my hands?"

Cheng Gongying's forehead was covered with sweat, he looked ashamed and flustered, and he mumbled, not knowing how to respond.

"When my father defeated Han Sui, he did not kill all of you, Han Sui's former subordinates. It was you who took the initiative to lead your troops to join my father."

"My father made every effort to ensure that you would be appointed as the governor of Jincheng and to guard the rear. This shows how much trust he has in you."

"But when Cao Cao killed my father and brothers, not only did you not help me kill Cao, you also planned and instigated the counties in Longxi to rebel against me, stabbed me in the back, and made me fail at the last moment."

"Cheng Gongying, how can you face my father in your grave?"

Ma Chao gritted his teeth, his eyes burning with anger, as he recounted everything Cheng Gongying had done.

Cheng Gongying was speechless when asked, and became more and more ashamed and panicked. He lowered his head, not daring to meet Ma Chao's gaze.

"This sneak attack on my northern granary must have been your doing."

"How ridiculous that you overestimate your own abilities and actually show off in front of Prime Minister Xiao. Do you think your petty tricks can escape his keen eyes?"

Before killing someone, Ma Chao also wanted to destroy their heart and expose the truth that Cheng Gongying's plan was exposed.

Cheng Gongying suddenly raised his head with a look of surprise.

"As for the plan to attack Chencang, I heard that you also proposed it to Cao Cao. Unfortunately, in the eyes of Prime Minister Xiao, you are still just a clown."

"Cheng Gongying, you think that just because you can outwit me, Ma Chao, you can outwit the emperor and Prime Minister Xiao?"

"Today, you are being too clever and have ended up killing yourself by my gun!"

Cheng Gongying's legs went weak and he fell to his knees.

The cruel truth became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

"My plans were all discovered by Xiao Fang..."

"Is this the wisdom of the Strategy Sage?" "How ridiculous that I overestimated my own abilities and even dared to compete with the Strategy Sage in wisdom. I am really arrogant and ridiculous, so ridiculous..."

Cheng Gongying muttered to himself, his soul seemed to be pulled out, and his eyes were dull.

"I tell you this so that you can die clearly."

"Cheng Gongying, today I will use your head to pay tribute to my father's spirit in heaven!"

Ma Chao was too disdainful to talk to him any more. He raised the bloody spear high in his hand, ready to take his life.

Cheng Gongying, who was in a state of disarray, suddenly came to mind, and the fear of death swept over his whole body.

"Ma Mengqi, General Ma, please listen to my explanation. I actually had my own reasons back then. Please listen to my explanation..."

He knelt in front of Ma Chao and begged in a hoarse and trembling voice, still holding on to a glimmer of hope.

Ma Chao's eyes were as cold as iron, and he said sternly:
"If you want to explain, go to hell and explain to my father and see if he is willing to forgive you!"

The bloody spear chopped down angrily.

"Crack!"

Cheng Gongying's head fell off with a sound.

A huge human head rolled to the ground, and the headless body fell to the ground with a bang, spurting blood.

After killing another enemy, Ma Chao let out a long sigh, feeling refreshed.

Then he hung up Cheng Gongying's head and looked around.

More than 2,000 Qin cavalrymen were killed and wounded, and less than a hundred escaped.

The northern bank of the Wei River was stained with blood, and the corpses of the Qin army were scattered all over the ground.

The 15,000 attacking Qin soldiers were almost wiped out!

"Yu Jin, after this battle, I wonder how you can defend Jicheng!"

Ma Chao looked towards Jicheng on the south bank, smiled coldly, and shouted:
"Hurry up and report the victory to His Majesty, saying that we have completely wiped out the enemy who attacked the granary camp!"

...

The north gate of Jicheng.

Yu Jin was standing on the city wall, looking into the distance towards the Han camp on the north bank, excitement burning in his eyes.

The Qin army guards along the city line were all surprised and talked about it, and their morale was greatly boosted.

I saw the Han camp on the north bank, with flames blazing, seeming to light up the night sky.

The fire meant that Cheng Gongying and Zhao Ang's sneak attack was successful, and the fire burned all the 300,000 hu of food and fodder of the Han army.

This means that if Cheng Gongying's plan succeeds, Liu Bei will have to withdraw his troops to the north in three days at most due to lack of food and grass. This means...

The more Yu Jin thought about it, the more proud and excited he became, and he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Before we knew it, the east was starting to grow white and the sky was gradually getting brighter.

Yu Jin estimated that Cheng Gongying and Zhao Ang would soon return with their victorious army, and immediately ordered preparations for a celebration banquet.

Yu Jin also went from the north gate to the west gate, ready to welcome the return of Cheng Gongying and Zhao Ang.

"General, troops are approaching!"

The guard beside him was sharp-eyed and pointed outside the city and shouted.

Yu Jin was alerted and looked carefully, and sure enough, he saw a cloud of dust rolling in from outside the west gate.

There is no doubt that the surprise attack will bring back victorious troops.

"Pass the order down. Quickly open the city gates and lower the drawbridge. I will personally go out of the city to welcome their triumphant return!"

Yu Jin laughed and gave the order.

He immediately went down the city and stood outside the city gate, with a smile on his face, waiting for the return of the 15,000 soldiers.

However, as he waited, the smile on Yu Jin's face gradually disappeared, and he began to realize that something was wrong.

It was not the 15,000-man army that returned.

There seemed to be only a hundred or so cavalrymen.

Moreover, their flags were in disarray, their weapons and armor were abandoned, and they were all like frightened birds.

This is not a return of victory, it is clearly a return of miserable defeat!

Yu Jin's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he gradually became panicked, his heart in his throat.

Finally, hundreds of defeated soldiers came in panic.

Zhao Ang dismounted from his horse, half-knelt in front of Yu Jin, and cried out in a tearful voice:

"General Yu, we have been defeated. Our entire army has been annihilated in this battle. Our entire army has been annihilated." (End of this chapter)
