Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Wuzhangyuan is a highland plain located south of the Weishui River. This plain is one of the few suitable campsites in the Qinling Mountains.

Chen Tai had heard of Ma Su's deeds and knew that this guy always liked to attack camps. Therefore, he would station himself on the south bank of the Wei River whenever he had the opportunity. Even if he was stationed on the north bank, he would try his best to guard against enemy night attacks.

The 30,000 Wei troops have neat banners, strict military discipline, and are basically elite. Even if Ma Su comes to attack the camp, Chen Tai is confident that he can play tricks with him.

Just kidding, if you come to attack my camp, there’s no guarantee who will die first!

After passing Wuzhangyuan, it happened to be dusk, so Chen Tai chose to station here. In this way, the soldiers do not need to be on guard for a long time at night, and they can arrive at Wu Gong in one go tomorrow.

Once he reached martial arts, he no longer had to worry about being attacked again, and could start implementing the plan to encircle and suppress Ma Su.

However, at this time, he did not know that Ma Su had defeated Xiahou Ba, so he was not sufficiently vigilant about his family's banner!

The entire Wei army ascended to Wuzhangyuan, quickly set up camp to rest, and built military tents and marching camps to station themselves. Thirty thousand Wei troops rested at Wuzhangyuan, preparing to set out again tomorrow morning.

Chen Tai also knew that this was the Baoxie Road, so he sent a troop of soldiers and horses to guard the Baoxie Plank Road while stationed there. Once there is any sign of a large army passing through the mountains, an alert will be reported immediately.

In general, although it was nothing major, Chen Tai still did a good job in vigilance.

However, this night was a little different. Just like that time at the street pavilion, it was late and there was no moon.

It was very dark all night, and it was absolutely impossible to see. Wuzhangyuan is relatively desolate, except for a small piece of plains and mountains.

At three o'clock in the middle of the night, the Wei army sentries stationed on the periphery began to doze off. The entire Wei army was not prepared for what was going to happen next.

"Who is it?" Suddenly, a sentry noticed someone moving nearby and immediately asked on guard.

"One of our own! We are Hu Qi from Beidi County who came to help!" came a sentence with a strong northern accent, and the sentry realized the other party's identity.

"Barbarians from Hebei?" Seeing this, the sentry dropped his guard again. The Qiang and Hu people have been their allies for a long time.

Most of the Han soldiers and horses were Qiang Di people recruited by Longyou, and their accents were different from those of the Hu people in the north. So when they heard the accent from Bingzhou in the north, the sentry thought they were not Han cavalry.

"That's right! We are Yan Jun's subordinates! We were originally ordered to encircle and suppress the horse bandits!" The leading Hu cavalry showed the Wei flag in his hand under the firelight. It was the flag given to the mercenaries by the Wei Dynasty. .

"It's a pity that we were ambushed by the Shu people on the road, and all our troops were defeated. We heard that General Chen was leading his troops here, so we came to join them!"

"I see." The sentry hesitated for a moment, feeling that there was nothing wrong with what he said, and then nodded in belief.

Especially seeing that the flags held by this group of people were obviously dilapidated, and each of them looked like they were defeated. There is also the stereotype of Hu people, which makes him feel that this seems normal.

The leader of the Shu people is named Ma Hechang, and even his own generals are wary of him.

But, just when he was greeting this group of "Wei Huqi", I don't know if he wanted to die, but the sentry soldier suddenly thought of something.

What if they were caught by the Shu people and came to pretend to be traitors?

Thinking of this, the sentry subconsciously wanted to turn around and check his identity again.

But just as he turned his head, he saw a shining sword flash across!

A bloody head flew out, and a careless sentry was killed.

His hesitation and paralysis allowed Ma Su's troops to successfully cross the warning zone. After killing him, Chen Tai's camp is already in sight!

"Do it!" Ma Su ordered fiercely in the dark night.

"Give these northern Wei thieves a bit of a shock to the Han people! Let them know the strength of our strong men!"

When a group of cavalrymen pretending to be defeated troops heard this, they immediately got on their horses in high spirits. The eyes of the thousand cavalry generals who have already been prepared and ready to fight are all shining with bloodthirsty light!

"kill!!"

Facing the nearby camp, it would be useless even if other sentries discovered the problem, it would be too late.

Because the camp was set up too quickly, Chen Tai only arranged two simple antlers at the entrance of the camp. Ma Di quickly pushed him away, and then a thousand cavalry rushed straight into the Wei army camp!

In just a moment, the silent Wei army camp suddenly came to life.

The Han cavalry rushed into the camp gate first, shouting and setting fire to the camp. Push down all the braziers when you encounter them, and light them with torches when you encounter tents.

As soon as many Wei soldiers came out of their tents, they were greeted by a shining sword light.

Or just a sharp gun tip...

The Wei army was in chaos for a while. Before they could react, Ma Di set fire to several camps and fled in a circle.

The only good news is that because of the rush to march, Chen Tai's soldiers all slept with their armor on. Although Ma Su's sudden cavalry was brave, he failed to expand the results.

Hearing the commotion outside, Chen Tai suddenly sat up from the bed.

"Someone came to attack the camp?" Chen Tai's face was a little ugly. He did not expect that the martial arts was about to happen and the camp was attacked on the last night.

When word spread about this, Chen Tai's face probably didn't look very good.

"What exactly happened?" Chen Tai looked solemn and quickly pulled over his general to ask about the situation.

"General, the Shu people's cavalry used the banner of our army, which prevented the sentry from giving a timely warning." Chen Tai's general reported, but he was not too panicked.

They were elites and had never seen any big winds or waves. A thousand people attacking the camp could not disturb them.

In fact, this was exactly the case. After Ma Su successfully attacked and defeated several Wei army camps, his progress was quickly delayed. After a large number of Wei troops reacted, they quickly began to defend the camp, giving Ma Su no chance to fight.

They have been guarding northern Xinjiang all year round and have gained experience in fighting Hu Qi. Ma Di wants to use the same tactics he used to deal with the Yongzhou Army to deal with them, which is still a bit whimsical.

"So that's it, Ma Di'er is really cunning!" Chen Tai then nodded and made a quick judgment based on the report and the noise outside.

Ma Su rushed to the camp and drummed, but most of the camps outside were not in chaos. From this point, it can be seen that Ma Su did not plan for a long time, and his military strength was about to be exhausted.

So Chen Tai made his own choice,

Lie down and stay still to calm the minds of the troops!

"In this case, I will continue to rest first, and you can just take care of Ma Di."

However, at the same time that Chen Tai made his decision, the sentry at Baoxie Road also rushed back. They brought important military reports, but they were dumbfounded as soon as they entered the camp gate.

Didn't the Shu army just appear on Baoxie Road? Why did Shu troops appear in their own camp?
