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

Inside the left camp of the Qin army.

At this moment, it is very busy.

Xiahou Yuan was commanding the Qin soldiers to continuously strengthen the fortifications.

Although two layers of deer horns had been built, Xiahou Yuan was still not too reassured and still ordered the soldiers to build two more layers.

There is no way, the man on the top of the mountain is Ma Chao, the King of Xiliang.

He hated Ma Chao for killing countless descendants of his Cao and Xiahou families, and hated him so much that he wanted to cut Ma Chao into pieces with his own hands.

But he cannot underestimate Ma Chao's strength.

If the camp is not strong enough, and Ma Chao's army attacks from a high position, what should we do?
Therefore, since setting up camp, Xiahou Yuan did not dare to delay and ordered the soldiers to continuously build and reinforce the camp.

While urging, he kept glancing towards Dingjun Mountain.

On the mountain, the flags of the Han army were looming, but there was no sign of the Han army.

He had no idea what Ma Chao's intentions were.

"Ma Chao, you bastard, if you have the guts, just stay on the top of the mountain and don't come down. I wonder how long you can hide!"

"When you run out of food and grass, won't you have to come down the mountain and fight me to the death?"

"Then it will be time to avenge the nephews of the Cao and Xiahou families~~"

Xiahou Yuan raised a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth and gritted his teeth secretly.

Just as he was thinking to himself, a horseman came galloping in and headed straight for the left camp.

The messenger dismounted and knelt at Xiahou Yuan's feet.

"Report to the Cavalry General!"

The messenger shouted breathlessly:
"The Han army suddenly came down the mountain and launched a fierce attack on our right camp. General Lei is almost unable to resist. I request General Hussar to send troops to support us as soon as possible!"

Hearing this, Xiahou Yuan's face changed drastically.

He suddenly raised his head and looked toward the top of Dingjun Mountain.

Ma Chao's move was totally beyond his expectations.

According to Yan Pu's calculations, Ma Chao would definitely station his troops on the top of the mountain and hold his ground without fighting, in the hope of luring out his main force and nailing it down on the Dingjun Mountain line.

At this time.

Liu Bei in Guanxi will lead the main force of the Han army to take advantage of the opportunity to launch an attack on Yangping Pass.

But he never expected that Ma Chao did not play by the rules. As soon as he led his troops to the city gate, he immediately went down the mountain to attack the right camp!

Ma Chao, is he crazy?

While Xiahou Yuan was surprised and suspicious, a hint of excitement suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Ma Chao arrived at the right time.

I'll deliver it to you myself, so that he won't have to attack me to the top of the mountain.

Now Ma Chao is leading his entire army to attack the right camp. If he leads the troops of the left camp to attack at this time, he can catch the enemy by surprise, attack from both inside and outside, and annihilate Ma Chao's main force in one fell swoop!

The danger at Dingjun Mountain was thus resolved.

Maybe, he could kill Ma Chao in one battle and avenge the dead children of the Cao and Xiahou families!

In an instant, Xiahou Yuan's rage for revenge was ignited.

"Zhang Yi, listen to my orders. I order you to lead 3,000 soldiers to guard the left camp and continue to build the camp. Do not act rashly!"

"I will personally lead 8,000 main forces to rush to the right camp immediately and defeat that bastard Ma Chao!"

Xiahou Yuan gave the order, mounted his horse, and was about to leave the camp with his sword in hand.

"Wait a minute, General Hussar!"

Zhang Yi was startled and hurried forward to stop Xiahou Yuan.

"The strategy Yan Zimiao gave us is to hold the left and right camps without fighting and trap Ma Chao to death on Dingjun Mountain."

"Now the general has rashly gone out to rescue the right camp. Isn't this a change of strategy?"

Xiahou Yuan rolled his eyes at him and snorted coldly:
"As a general, you should be able to adapt to changing circumstances. How can you be rigid and inflexible?"

"If I don't go to rescue the right camp, what should I do if it is breached by Ma Chao?"

Zhang Yi was speechless.

After a pause, Zhang Yi could only continue:

"General Xiahou, you are the leader of the entire army. How can you lead the army into battle so easily? If there is a mistake, won't our army be in danger?"

"Let me lead the army to rescue the right camp!" Zhang Yi also had good intentions and wanted to rescue the right camp on behalf of Xiahou Yuan.

After all, Xiahou Yuan is the commander of the three armies. If he fails, not only will their left and right camps collapse, but Yangping Pass will also be lost.

The entire Han army will collapse and eventually be destroyed.

Xiahou Yuan raised a hint of contempt at the corner of his mouth and snorted coldly:
"Who is Ma Chao? He is a brave man who can defeat ten thousand enemies. Many of our Cao family's heroes and our Qin generals have died at the hands of Ma Chao."

"Except for me personally, who can resist Ma Chao? Can you?"

Zhang Yi was speechless.

It was clear from Xiahou Yuan's words that he looked down on him and believed that he was no match for Ma Chao.

If he goes to fight, not only will he fail to save the right camp, but he might even go to his death.

Looking at the entire Qin State, only Xiahou Yuan can compete with Ma Chao!
Zhang Yi remained silent and said nothing to persuade him.

He was very clear about his own capabilities, and if he met Ma Chao, he would be dead.

Under the current situation, only Xiahou Yuan can take action personally.

After subduing Zhang Yi, Xiahou Yuan no longer hesitated and immediately led more than 7,000 Qin troops out of the left camp and rushed towards the right camp along the northern slope of Dingjun Mountain.

...

At the top of Dingjun Mountain, Ma Chao and Pang Tong stood side by side.

The two men's eyes were as sharp as blades, always fixed on the foot of the mountain, observing the Qin army's every move.

The terrain of Dingjun Mountain is quite special.

The three southwestern and eastern sides of the mountain are all relatively steep, except for the northern side which is a gentle slope that stretches down from the top of the mountain.

Between the foot of the mountain and the Mian River is a narrow plain that can be used by soldiers and horses to pass through.

Xiao Fang's secret plan kept appearing in Ma Chao and Pang Tong's minds.

Xiao Fang calculated in his secret plan that when the Qin army's right camp was attacked, Xiahou Yuan of the left camp would personally lead the army along the narrow plain at the foot of the mountain to rescue the right camp.

In other words, Xiahou Yuan would pass by in front of the north slope, right under their noses.

This is the opportunity.

When Xiahou Yuan was running all the way and focusing on heading to the right camp, they would rush down from the top of the mountain along the north slope and defeat Xiahou Yuan in one fell swoop.

at this time.

From the direction of the Qin army's right camp, the sound of killing rang out like thunder and reached the top of the mountain.

Dust and fog rose above the enemy camp, blocking out the sky and the sun.

It was obvious that Guo Huai was commanding 4,000 soldiers, pretending to be an army of 10,000, and was launching a fierce attack on Lei Tong's right camp.

just.

Guo Huai's offensive had lasted for half an hour, but Xiahou Yuan still did not appear in front of the north slope.

Ma Chao clenched his fists and began to feel anxious.

"Mengqi, the Prime Minister has made every possible plan. Since he has predicted that Xiahou Yuan will come to rescue his right camp in person, he must be right."

"Hold on, let's wait a moment."

Pang Tong saw Ma Chao's anxiety and comforted him with a smile.

Ma Chao's heart was shocked, and he suddenly came to his senses.

"Yes, since I have known the Prime Minister, he has never made a mistake once, and he will definitely not make a mistake this time."

"In that case, what should I worry about?"

Ma Chao murmured with emotion and calmed down again.

at this time.

Pang Tong's eyes focused and he pointed to the mountain ahead:
"Mengqi, look, the Prime Minister is indeed as good as a god, Xiahou Yuan is here!"

Ma Chao's spirits perked up, and he looked carefully, only to see thousands of soldiers and horses hurriedly passing by along the north slope.

A large "Xiahou" flag is clearly visible.

In an instant, Ma Chao's eyes widened and his fighting spirit burned.

"Xiahou has fallen into the trap. Soldiers, listen to my orders!"

Ma Chao jumped onto his horse, brandished his spear and shouted:
"Follow me and rush down Dingjun Mountain to kill all the Qin troops!"

"I want to kill Xiahou Yuan——" (End of this chapter)
