Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 259 The Wei army retreated

"Zhao defeated?"

Master Sima looked at the soldiers who came to report and narrowed his eyes. However, he was not surprised at all. On the contrary, he even felt that it was good that Sima Zhao could last for so long.

His younger brother Sima Zhao had never fought in a war, so he did not know how to march and use troops. And what he faced was Ma Su, the ace of the Shu Han Dynasty. It was indeed remarkable that he could persist until now.

"What a pity. It seems that Zhuge Liang has already seen through our plan." Master Sima shook his head and said softly.

"Little general, now that Zhiyang has been captured by the Shu army, we are afraid that we have to withdraw from Wuwei as soon as possible." Fei Yao was a little panicked. Judging from the current situation, they were afraid that they would be surrounded soon.

There is plenty of food in Jincheng, but it cannot last for long. If the Shu army cuts off their retreat, they may be doomed.

It is better to break out of the encirclement as soon as possible while the Shu army has not encircled them yet.

However, facing Fei Yao's proposal, Master Sima shook his head and said lightly.

"General Fei, I am withdrawing from Wuwei, and you need to lead the troops to Xiping County."

"What?" Fei Yao's expression suddenly changed, and his brows suddenly wrinkled.

"Once Jincheng County falls, Xiping County will be an isolated and helpless place. Does General Sima want to kill Fei?"

"The general misunderstood, this is not to ask the general to die." Master Sima shook his head, still as calm as water, he calmly took out a letter and handed it to Fei Yao.

"My father has instigated rebellion against the Shenlang Qiang and Shaodang Qiang tribes in the south of Xiping County. These two Qiang tribes have promised to send troops and are willing to fight with the Wei Dynasty to attack the Shu army."

"General Fei has great prestige in the army, and he can be of great use if he is good at fighting. My father hopes that the general will lead five thousand troops to command the Qiang tribe and attack the Shu army from the side."

"Don't worry, General Fei, this trip will never let you die!"

Master Sima's calm reply left Fei Yao speechless. After holding it for a long time, he snorted and snatched the letter from Master Sima's hand and took a look at it.

"It's best like this." Fei Yao said in silence after reading the letter from Sima Yi.

The Shaodang Qiang tribe and the Shenlang Qiang tribe have sent nearly 20,000 Qiang soldiers in total, and the army has entered Xiping County. But the foreign soldiers and horses could not do without their own generals, so Sima Yi asked Fei Yao to lead the Qiang soldiers.

Fei Yao was very dissatisfied with this appointment. But seeing the look in Sima Master's eyes and the way Sima Yi dealt with his disobedient subordinates, Fei Yao could only swallow his anger and continue.

But he was even more resentful towards Sima Yi and his son.

After seeing Fei Yao leave, Master Sima's eyes suddenly narrowed, with a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

Zhuge Liang led his army to besiege Jincheng for more than half a month, but failed to break through. Finally, after Ma Di cut off the Wei army's return route, Sima Shi and Fei Yao led the army to abandon the city and flee.

After Fei Yao escaped from Jincheng with five thousand troops, he went straight to Xiping County. Sima Division led the remaining four thousand soldiers and horses northward, preparing to withdraw from Wuwei and join forces with Sima Yi.

However, it was not easy for Sima Division to evacuate, because there were three thousand cavalry of Ma Su in front of him to intercept him.

When he learned that the famous Sima Division had withdrawn with 4,000 troops, Ma Di suddenly became excited.

"Master Sima, the one-eyed war god, I will capture him alive!" Ma Su made up his mind in just a few breaths.

Master Sima is the key figure in the Sima family's ability to successfully exchange housing funds for the Cao family. His value is not just Sima Yi's son, he is a talent in his own right.

What are you waiting for? Even if he is not captured alive, he cannot be allowed to continue leading the troops, otherwise it will definitely be a disaster for the big man.

After making up his mind, Ma Di immediately led three thousand cavalry and headed south to meet them.

Sima Division led four thousand troops, including more than two thousand cavalry. These were all big fish. After Sima Zhao presented Ma Di with two thousand cavalry prisoners, Ma Di also took a fancy to Sima Division's tribe.

Ma Di led three thousand cavalry to charge along the road, and met Sima Division's troops more than ten miles south of Zhiyang. From afar, Ma Su saw Sima Division's commanding flag looming in the middle of the Wei army.

"Sima Division! Take your life!" Ma Su took a look at Sima Division's flag and led his cavalry in a sudden attack.

However, the sudden appearance of the Shu army did not cause the Wei army to be confused. Thousands of Cao Wei infantry quickly organized their troops to prepare for war. Before Ma Di rushed forward, Sima Division had already completed the reorganization of the military formation.

From this point we can see the difference between Sima Shi and Sima Zhao.

If it had been Sima Zhao, the Wei army would have been in chaos before Ma Di arrived.

But... that's about it.

When Wei and Shu took over, Ma Su rushed in facing the spears and shields of the Wei army. The soldiers of the Wei army standing in front of Ma Su were knocked over directly, and the Wei army's formation was torn apart instantly.

The seemingly impregnable military formation was like paper in front of Ma Di. The Shu army quickly broke through the defense line and attacked Sima Division's banner.

"kill!!"

The Wei army in front was neatly cut apart like a wave of water, and Ma Di took the lead and rushed to the banner of the Wei army commander. And there, a young general was already neatly dressed and waiting for him.

"Death to this old man!" Seeing Ma Di coming to kill him, Master Sima also drew his gun and charged back.

Master Sima is only in his twenties this year, and Ma Su is forty. He is indeed qualified to call Ma Su an old man.

It's just that Ma Su has always been full of energy, and he doesn't look like a 40-year-old veteran.

Ma Su and Sima Shi passed by on the wrong horse, and with the clang of metal collision, their hands went numb at the same time.

"Sima Yi's stupid son is not bad at all!" Ma Di was a little surprised. Sima Shi's strength was even better than his.

Huh? Why should I be surprised? Isn't it supposed to be?

"Old man, you're not bad either!" Master Sima rolled his eyes and looked at Ma Di with an unwavering expression, as if he wanted to see through this famous general in Shu.

But he was obviously disappointed, because Ma Su didn't give him a chance and shot him again.

Master Sima was not a parallel import, and his martial arts skills were not comparable to those of the two hundred and fifty that Ma Su had encountered before. Ma Su led his cavalry to entangle with Sima Division, and they fought for half an hour without deciding the outcome.

However, the Wei army obviously could not sustain such a high-intensity battle like Sima Division, and its morale began to decline rapidly. On the contrary, the group of cavalry under Ma Su became more and more brave as they fought, and the more they killed, the more excited they became.

Just when Ma Su and Sima Shi were about to engage in the fiftieth round of battle, Sima Shi suddenly dodged Ma Su's spear with a feint, and fled on horseback. The whole set of movements was so smooth that Ma Su didn't even react.

"Old man, let me go for a while today. You won't be so lucky next time." Master Sima cursed Ma Su, and turned around and ran away with his bodyguard.

"What's going on? Did Master Sima abandon all his troops?" Seeing this scene, Ma Di felt a little surprised, but soon he suddenly thought of something, turned around and glanced at the size of the Wei army, and his expression changed instantly.

"Fuck! I've been cheated on!"
