Chapter 255 Recapture

Blocking Yang broken?

Ma Chao looked at the soldiers in front of him, but he didn't get angry.

There are only 3,000 people in Duyang, and they are not elite. Without powerful generals, they were defeated by Cao Jun. Ma Chao already had a guess in his mind last night, so he wanted to put all his eggs in one basket and capture and kill Cao Cao. Then everything would be fine. .

"General, withdraw the troops!" The lieutenant general sighed, once the block was broken, there was no way to defend it, so he had to retreat to Wancheng, defend it and let it go.

"Can't withdraw!" Ma Chao was very calm at the moment, as if he had grown up all of a sudden.

He was indeed very calm, and he knew very well that this retreat would not only break his defense line, but more importantly, his retreat would be equivalent to sending Wei Yan and Gao Shun's rear to Cao Cao's hands, and the entire Nanyang front may collapse.

"But our army only brought today's food and grass. If we don't retreat, there is no danger to defend. How can we fight?" The lieutenant general frowned.

The soldiers and horses have not moved, the food and grass go first, there is no food and grass, caught between Cao Cao's two armies, if it continues, once the battle starts, it will be the enemy.

Ma Chao was also thinking about this question, looking at the soldiers who had retreated from Duyang's defeat, he asked, "How many troops were lured by Duyang? Who will lead the army?"

"Back to the general, at least there are thousands of troops, but they were led by Le Jin, the general of the Cao army, who was extremely brave." The defeated soldier said bitterly.

Without siege equipment, and Cao Jun's reinforcements may arrive at any time, let alone the surprise attack just last night, even if there were no siege equipment, it would be impossible to break through Duyang again.

"Gamble!" Ma Chao looked at the corpses all over the ground, and called the lieutenant general: "Lead your troops in a rout and pretend to retreat to Bowang, and I will lead the camp and pretend to be Cao Jun to pursue, and see if I can deceive you." Open the city gate."

It would be best if he could do it naturally, if not, then he would be a bandit and grassroots bandit for a while. In short, he could not retreat, and the one who retreated might be the whole of Nanyang.

In addition, Ma Chao asked someone to go to Biyang to report the situation on Wei Yan's side, so that he could make early plans.

The lieutenant nodded in agreement, turned around and went to make arrangements. It would be best if Du Yang could be recaptured.

There is no need to act, after such a toss last night, although the soldiers regrouped, their morale could not be shaken for a while. Under the command of the deputy general, they retreated to Duyang in a mess, and then walked around the city.

Ma Chao took the soldiers of the trapped camp and put on the armor of Cao Jun, and handed over the rhinoceros leather armor to the lieutenant general. After the two sides separated, they made a look of chasing and fleeing. After arriving in Duyang, the lieutenant walked around the city directly. , Ma Chao came to Duyang City with the trapped camp after changing clothes.

"Kaicheng!" Ma Chao came to the city with a tired face, but his voice was full of enthusiasm.

On the tower, Le Jin had already heard the reports from his subordinates, and came to the top of the city to wait and see. When he saw this group of men and horses approaching, the armor was clearly riding tigers and leopards. Looking at the opponent's appearance, it was obvious that he had gone through a terrible battle, so he didn't think much about it. Immediately ask someone to open the city gate.

"Wait a minute, who are you?" A man on the tower looked over and asked casually.

Ma Chao frowned and raised his head. He had already heard someone opening the gate of the city. At this time, the other party asked a question, but he had no choice but to answer, so as not to be seen by the other party. Suddenly, he said casually, "I am under General Xu Chu's tent."

He knew the name of General Cao Jun, but it was Xu Chu who impressed him the most. After all, apart from Lu Bu, there were not many princes who could fight him back and forth.

Le Jin believed the words a little bit, it was Cao Chun and Xu Chu who ambushed along the way.

But soon, Le Jin realized that something was wrong. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was directly under Cao Chun's elite, and he claimed to be under the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry or Cao Chun's account. How could it be Xu Chu's account?

"Don't open the door!" Le Jin, who had reacted, shouted sharply.

But at this time, a gap had been opened in the city gate. Hearing Le Jin's yelling, Ma Chao didn't say a word, and with a spear in his hand, he had pierced through the gap and blocked the city gate. One step, supporting the city gate, and exerting strength together, at the same time someone shot a loud arrow into the sky.

In a hurry, the city gate was squeezed out of a crack allowing one person to pass through, but immediately began to want to push out again.

In a blink of an eye, Ma Chao strode forward and rushed into the city gate the moment it closed again.

General Cao Jun who was about to close the city gate was about to speak when a cold light came out and wiped the opponent's throat, but it was Ma Chao who drew his sword and beheaded him. , Swing away the weapons of the two Cao Jun who were attacking, and took the opportunity to bump forward, knocking the two away.

The spear swept back and immediately swept away the three Cao Jun soldiers, then drew the gun and used the gun barrel to fly the Cao Jun soldiers who rushed up behind him.

This city gate is obviously not suitable for wide-opening and closing weapons such as long spears, but Ma Chao still suppressed more than a dozen Cao Jun's heads, and without the pressure of these Cao Jun, the soldiers who were trapped in the camp quickly pushed open the city gate. After occupying the gate of the city, they shot at Cao Jun who was rushing indiscriminately, driving these Cao Jun out of the city gate.

At the same time, the lieutenant general in the distance was greeted by the sound of arrows from here, and immediately waved his troops to kill here.

Le Jin attacked the city overnight, and managed to capture the sun only this morning. Now that the city has just been warmed up, the enemy army pretended to be his own and took the gate of the city. How could he want to? He raised the horn and assembled the soldiers of the three armies to fight here, and at the same time personally led people down the city, trying to take back the city gate.

Le Jin's stature is not high, but he is extremely brave, and he is not afraid even in the face of the elite who are trapped in the camp.

But the trapped camp was well equipped, and because they couldn't use it all at once, under Ma Chao's command, ten people formed a row and took turns shooting arrows outside the city gate, but unexpectedly formed an extremely violent arrow net. Mao Yashi couldn't rush in even if he wanted to break through.

The deputy general led the soldiers and horses to rush in, and Ma Chao immediately ordered the deputy general to lead the soldiers of the trapped camp to snatch the city gate up and down, while he himself led the army to kill Cao Jun led by Le Jin.

Le Jin finally had a chance to fight, and without a word, he led the Cao army and collided with the Nanyang army led by Ma Chao.

Cao's army fought endlessly from yesterday to tonight. Although they captured the city, they were exhausted. The Nanyang army marched overnight, and halfway through the army, seven or eight of them were killed by tigers and leopards. Fighting together at this moment, it cannot be said that they are equal opponents, but they are almost the same.

However, the generals of both sides are brave and skilled fighters. Driven by them, they barely gained some morale. Ma Chao slapped his horse and danced his gun, the ghosts who killed Cao Jun cried and howled, and the Nanyang Army who Le Jin also killed also threw away their helmets and armor.

The two quickly noticed each other. In the chaotic army, Ma Chao charged at Le Jin first, but Le Jin had no horse. He grabbed a Nanyang soldier and threw it at Ma Chao. At the same time, he shot at Ma Chao's horse.

Ma Chao saw that the other party had thrown someone over, and the moment he waved his gun away, he caught a glimpse of the obscene shot at his beloved horse, and hurriedly reined in the reins, and the horse stood up, avoiding Le Jin's shot, and the two at the same time The bowl-sized horseshoe stepped on Le Jin's head.

Le Jin shot in the air, retreated quickly, and shot Ma Chao on horseback again.

At this time, the war horse had stopped, and Ma Chao could not rely on the horse's speed, but he didn't need to. When he saw the opponent's spear coming, he flicked his backhand, and pushed again, while blocking the opponent's long spear, he stabbed at Le Jin at the same time.

The cold tip of the spear brushed across the nail leaves on Le Jin's chest, bringing up a stream of sparks and a few broken nail leaves.

Le Jin's chest felt tight and he took two steps back. Ma Chao took advantage of the situation and rode his horse forward to knock him into the air. It flew out and brought down a piece.

When Ma Chao wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue, Le Jin had already rolled into the crowd, and the horseshoes of the horse fell mercilessly. The two soldiers of Cao Jun who had no time to escape were trampled to the chest and abdomen by the horseshoes. Their eyes widened and they screamed. He couldn't even send it out, but his limbs stretched forward stiffly, as if trying to push the horse away.

Ma Chao didn't care about these things. After stabbing Cao Jun who was approaching to death with a single shot, he looked for Le Jin, but there was no trace of him?

However, after Le Jin avoided Ma Chao, he saw that the enemy army had already occupied the city gate. With the continuous Nanyang army rushing in, Cao's army began to show a tendency to be defeated.

Originally, after a night of hard work, I won with great difficulty, but suddenly the city gate was seized again, and Cao's army was scattered in all directions in the city, while the opponent poured in from one city gate. As more and more Nanyang troops poured in, they scattered in all directions. Cao Jun naturally couldn't resist.

Although unwilling, but the general situation is gone, Le Jin can only lead Cao Jun to fight and retreat, and withdraw from the other side of the city gate.

It's done!

As Cao Jun withdrew from Blocking Yang, Ma Chao finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was tricked by Cao Cao, he did not let Cao Cao directly attack Nanyang in the end, and the Nanyang defense line was still there.

For a moment, Ma Chao felt that his heart seemed to be much lighter.

Finally, he lived up to the entrustment of the general.

But when the deputy general reported the current number of defenders in the city, Ma Chao couldn't laugh.

The camp of 600 traps did not have much loss, but the number of ordinary soldiers was less than 6,000 at this time.

When he came, it was 12,000. In just a few days, not only was he trapped in the camp, he suffered the biggest loss in history, but also lost most of the soldiers Gao Shun gave him, and his relaxed mood suddenly became heavier.

"General, I'm lucky to be able to take back Duyang." The deputy general looked at Ma Chao's appearance and probably knew what the other party was thinking, and sighed.

To be honest, he didn't expect Duyang to be recaptured, and Cao Jun probably didn't expect that Ma Chao would want to recapture Duyang at this time. It was because of this slack that Ma Chao took advantage of the loophole. Ma Chao's performance after the defeat was quite impressive.

Recapturing Duyang, not to mention making amends, but at least Nanyang was saved.

The most important thing is that the current Ma Chao feels more secure than before, and he looks like a general.

"Inventory the materials in the treasury, clean the battlefield, and let the soldiers take turns defending the city." Ma Chao did not relax. This is the time when the soldiers are most vulnerable, so for the next two days, he will personally defend the city without sleep until After the morale stabilized, I was relieved to rest...
