The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1010 Inescapable death ([-])

Half an hour after Wei Yan's order was conveyed, all the troops under Wei Yan's command began to pull out the camp. After more than an hour, the camp that was originally built on the flat ground had been completely cleaned up.

Therefore, all the horses under Wei Yan's command retreated towards the periphery as quickly as possible.Their actions seemed to be in a hurry, and many things were just thrown away hastily before they had time to clean up.It seemed that Wei Yan's large army was actually just defeated and retreated from the battlefield.

As for why Wei Yan withdrew his army in such a hasty way, but said that he would use it to deal with Sima Zhao's hidden assassins, it seemed rather puzzling.

After Wei Yan's troops retreated hastily for about an hour, it was already midnight of the day.

The news was sent to Sima Zhao's hands as quickly as possible by the rangers under Sima Zhao who were monitoring Jin Ri's actions.And Sima Zhao was also desperate at this time. He actually led a group of men himself, and by night, he had already touched seven or eight miles away from Wei Yan's original military camp.

This actually shows that, on the one hand, Sima Zhao is very confident in the possibility of the success of his plan to design the Jin brothers to assassinate Wei Yan;

On the other hand, it is enough to show that Sima Zhao is now at the end of the road.All the passages to the north are still guarded by Gai Meng's cavalry, so it is impossible for Sima Zhao to choose the direction to escape from Yongzhou.He selected Wei Yan's army to be responsible for any of the three directions of east, west and south.

As long as he can get out of Wei Yan's encirclement first, even if the sky is not high enough to let the birds fly, as long as he can buy him a little time to breathe.Either he can cross the Yellow River from the west, go out of the Great Wall, and then go around the grassland and enter Bingzhou;
Or, he would go east and enter Chang'an Sanfu, then pass through Lantian County, enter Jingzhou through Qingni Pass, and then look for opportunities in Jingzhou to return to Cao Wei's territory.

The above two paths are the most likely to take shape.And the mountainous area to the north of Feng Yi County, which is the closest to Jinyang, is actually the most dangerous passage that was excluded by Sima Zhao.

Therefore, this is why Sima Zhao did not appear further north at this time, but suddenly appeared around Wei Yan's original military camp.

After Sima Zhao got the report that Wei Yan's men retreated hastily, before they even had time to take away a lot of supplies, he immediately became extremely excited.

Sima Zhao couldn't help looking up at the bright moon and the starry sky. The night was really peaceful, but his heart was now turbulent. He couldn't help but let out a long breath, opened his arms and said with a smile: "Jin Ri The assassination of Wei Yan was successful! Even if Wei Yan didn't die, he was probably seriously injured, otherwise his army wouldn't have retreated in such a hasty way!"

Then, Sima Zhao couldn't help but because the trick he devised was so brilliant, it was really worth it to lose two insignificant rivers and lakes, and almost certainly get rid of Wei Yan.

Sima Zhao thought of what he was proud of, and couldn't help laughing out loud to himself.

After laughing enough, Sima Zhao began to think about it. Next, he wanted to go east and enter Jingzhou, or go north and go back to Bingzhou directly from the grassland outside the Great Wall.

After thinking about it for a while, Sima Zhao felt that if he went to Jingzhou, it would be a territory that the Shu Han had operated for a long time, and the defenses in all aspects were very tight.

But the problem is that if Sima Zhao walks on the grassland, the grassland seems to be even more unsafe for the Han people.Once attacked by the Xianbei people, they have almost no chance of escaping.The best result is to be robbed, and then everyone becomes Han slaves; the worst result, of course, is to be killed by the Xianbei people.

After thinking for himself, Sima Zhao felt that it would be safer to go to Jingzhou. After all, the grassland was too chaotic, and all kinds of dangers were everywhere.And to go west, even if Jingzhou is not accessible, he can even enter Yangzhou, and even go to Jiaozhou, and then hire a sea boat and go north!

After the countermeasures had been drawn up, Sima Zhao gave the order to set off for the rangers who were left with only a dozen people.

Immediately following the darkness, this group of people quickly launched their actions.

But the actions of Sima Zhao's men were soon discovered by Wei Yan's scouts who were secretly lurking around.After all, with the rapid retreat of Wei Yan's troops, the surrounding area has long been turned into a no-man's land. People who can walk around this area at this time naturally become the objects of attention of Wei Yan's scouts.

The scout immediately reported the information to Wei Yan.

Wei Yan was actually very calm, and didn't let the army chase him all at once.Instead, the scouts must keep a close eye on Nahuo's whereabouts no matter what, and just don't let him escape the surveillance range.

Then, Wei Yan divided the army into two parts, and began to take other roads at the fastest speed and head eastward at the fastest speed.

Taking advantage of their familiarity with the local terrain and roads, Wei Yan's men took a shortcut and quickly rushed ahead of Sima Zhao and the others.

Then, Wei Yan ordered the army to stop and quickly set up an ambush circle in the area.

In fact, setting up such an ambush circle is too easy for Wei Yan.

The reason is very simple, Wei Yan now has nearly 1 people in his hands.Using 1 people to ambush a dozen people, they no longer need to find the most favorable terrain to hide as they did when marching and fighting.

Even if they are on flat ground, they only need to open a huge opening in the direction Sima Zhao and the others came from, but in other directions, they only need to form an army formation to form a huge pocket, and Sima Zhao can't see anyone.

After Sima Zhao entered, the army immediately closed the opening.

At that time, they will use 1 people to deal with Sima Zhao's dozen or so people, and compress them in the middle at once. Even if Sima Zhao has the power to reach the sky, he will not be able to escape at all, let alone break through.

Those rivers and lakes under Sima Zhao's hands, no matter how vigorous they are, facing Wei Yan's tens of thousands of horses, if they still have the courage to draw their swords, even if they are powerful, don't really expect to still have the desire to break through in their minds. crazy idea.

And Wei Yan did the same.He deployed his army at the fastest speed and surrounded an area with a radius of several miles.

A dozen of Sima Zhao's men entered Wei Yan's encirclement in a daze.When they knew that Wei Yan's troops were rapidly compressing from all directions towards the center, they suddenly realized that the enemy had already been waiting for them to fall into a trap.

Poor Sima Zhao was so insidious and cunning that he couldn't escape Wei Yan's killer in the end.

At this time, Wei Yan didn't want to continue playing with Sima Zhao at all, and the army shot random arrows at Sima Zhao and others who were surrounded in Gaixin, and those assassins were almost completely killed.

In the end, only Sima Zhao, who was trembling with fright, was left in the middle protected by those rangers, and was not shot to death by random arrows, but he didn't realize that his arm was actually shot by a random arrow, and the blood was pouring It was gurgling from the wound.

It can be seen how scared Sima Zhao was in his heart at this time.
