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

Ma Chao took the lead, like a killing god, riding his horse and holding his spear, and rushed down the north slope first.

Behind him, the six thousand Han soldiers who were ambushed in the depression on the back of the mountain also shouted like thunder and rushed down after Ma Chao with the force of the sky collapsing and the earth splitting.

They were all over the mountains and plains, rushing straight towards the Qin army.

And at this time.

On the plain in front of the north slope, Xiahou Yuan was urging his 7,000 soldiers to rush towards the right camp regardless of everything.

He was very worried about Lei Tong.

In other words, he looked down on most of the generals in Shu and did not trust any of them.

However, his Qin State lost the north and retreated all the way to Yizhou. Those northern generals were killed or injured, and there were only a few left.

With no one else available, they could only rely on Shu generals like Lei Tong to guard their Qin State.

However, Xiahou Yuan had deep distrust in their abilities.

At this moment, he was just worried that Lei Tong's ability was limited and he could not withstand the fierce attack of the Han army. By the time his reinforcements arrived, the right camp would have been breached.

At that time, the Han army had occupied the right camp and was waiting for the enemy to tire themselves out. What should they do?

"Quick, faster!"

The more Xiahou Yuan thought about it, the more anxious he became. He had no choice but to shout orders repeatedly, urging his Qin soldiers to run as fast as they could.

Finally, dust and fog came into view ahead, and the right camp was almost approaching.

Faintly, the Qin flag could still be seen, indicating that the right camp had not yet been lost.

Xiahou Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, picked up his sword, took a deep breath, and planned to motivate his soldiers.

"Daqin soldiers——"

The words remained unspoken.

Suddenly, a deafening roar of killing rang in my ears.

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

Xiahou Yuan's heart trembled, and he looked to the right in the direction of the sound.

He took a deep breath, his expression frozen in shock for a moment.

On the northern slope of Dingjun Mountain on the right, countless Han soldiers were seen rushing down all over the mountain like a flood that had broken through a dam.

The "Horse" flag fluttered brightly under the setting sun.

Ma Chao rushed down the mountain!
Xiahou Yuan's expression suddenly changed, as if he had seen a ghost.

According to Lei Tong's intelligence, shouldn't Ma Chao be leading the main force of the Han army and attacking his right camp at this time?

This also means that there will be only a few Han troops left on Dingjun Mountain.

But where did these tens of thousands of Han troops coming towards us come from?
Are you dazzled?
Xiahou Yuan rubbed his eyes violently and looked again in disbelief.

He was not dazzled. The soldiers swooping down from all over the mountains and plains were indeed the Han army.

The number is at least tens of thousands!
This means that the Han army coming towards them is the real Ma Chao’s entire army!

"Could it be that……"

Thousands of thoughts flashed through Xiahou Yuan's mind in an instant, and he suddenly came to his senses.

Fell into a trap.

The Han army's fierce attack on Lei Tong's right camp was just a bait!
The Han army that is attacking the right camp at this moment is definitely not Ma Chao's main force, but must be just a small part of the Han army bluffing.

Ma Chao's real intention was to lure him to lead his troops to rescue.

Ma Chao led the main force and waited in ambush, waiting for him to pass by the north slope when he came to support the right camp.

At this time, Ma Chao led a large army to attack suddenly, and killed him by surprise from a high position!
This is Ma Chao’s plan!
Xiahou Yuan figured out everything and suddenly shuddered. A terrifying name popped up in his mind:

Xiao Fang.

This plan must be the work of Xiao Fang!

For a moment, Xiahou Yuan was in a state of panic.

In the blink of an eye when he was distracted, the Qin soldiers on both sides were frightened to death by the Han army's divine soldiers descending from the sky.

Before the Han army arrived, the Qin army was already in chaos.

Xiahou Yuan suddenly woke up and shouted anxiously:
"Quick, the whole army will form a battle array to resist the Han dogs——"

Under the order, the Qin army hastily formed a battle array. It was too late.

The narrow terrain in front of the north slope became a fatal loophole for the Qin army at this time.

Because the land was narrow, the Qin army could only march in a long line with a great distance between the head and the tail.

In such a rush, the front and rear could not take care of each other and there was no time to form a formation in time.

While the Qin troops were still crowding together, the Han troops on the hillside swooped down like thunder and crashed into the enemy group.

The sound of smashing, screaming, and neighing of horses...

It rang out in an instant, a sound that swallowed up everything between heaven and earth.

Countless Qin soldiers, like paper-mache soldiers, were knocked to the ground in large numbers by the Han army and crushed to pieces.

The Han army had the advantage of a sudden attack, outnumbered the Qin army, and caught the Qin army off guard.

In this situation, how could the Qin army, with its 7,000 soldiers demoralized and unable to form a battle array, resist?
With just one attack, the Qin army was torn to pieces and cut into countless pieces like a long snake.

collapse!

The 7,000 Qin troops collapsed completely.

Xiahou looked at the soldiers fleeing around him, gritting his teeth, his face full of hatred and anger.

Of course he knew that he had lost the battle.

And it still failed miserably.

If the 7,000-strong army was intercepted and killed, I'm afraid the entire army would be annihilated.

The key point is that the losses were not just these 7,000 soldiers.

Later, Ma Chao took advantage of the victory to attack the right camp, and Lei Tong's 7,000 soldiers and horses would undoubtedly be defeated.

In other words, if he lost this battle, he would lose at least 14,000 soldiers.

In this way, he will no longer have the troops to retake Dingjun Mountain!

The shortage of military forces is the biggest weakness of the Qin State.

At that time, he could only allow Ma Chao to occupy Dingjun Mountain, cross the Mian River to the north to cut off his food supply, or go east to threaten Nanzheng, and he would be powerless to stop him.

Hanzhong is in danger!

No, these seven thousand soldiers must be protected!

Thinking of this, Xiahou Yuan did not dare to fight anymore and could only shout:
"All troops, listen to my order. Retreat to the left camp. Retreat—"

late.

Just when Xiahou Yuan had just ordered a retreat.

On the hillside, a streak of white light was coming towards him with the force of the earth collapsing.

"Xia Houyuan!"

"Ma Chao is here, leave your life behind——"

A thunderous roar made Xiahou Yuan's scalp numb.

His body was shocked and he turned around quickly, only to see Ma Chao rushing towards him like a god from heaven.

“Ma…Ma Chao?”

Xiahou Yuan was shocked and tried to raise his sword to block in a hurry.

Half a beat slower.

Ma Chao was already speeding up and taking advantage of his swooping position, his speed was so fast that he had no time to react.

Before he could wield his sword, Ma Chao, riding a horse, had already appeared from nowhere.

The silver spear in his hand, with the power to destroy the world and the hatred to exterminate his entire family, stabbed towards Xiahou Yuan's chest.

"puff!"

A shot came like lightning and pierced Xiahou Yuan's chest.

With a scream, Xiahou Yuan spurted blood wildly. Driven by the momentum, his huge figure flew into the air, but was stabbed off his horse and into the air.

"boom!"

The bloody body fell to the ground with a thud. (End of this chapter)
