Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 346 I can’t beat him without Ma Di

At this moment, if Wang Ling wanted to win a quick battle, then dividing his troops and besieging the Shu army would be the best option. After all, the Wei army had five times the number of soldiers and horses as the Shu army, so it was very easy to encircle them from all sides.

But obviously, unless Wang Ling wanted to see Ma Su leading his cavalry to defeat the Wei army, he would never dare to choose this.

Ma Di dares to divide his troops, but he can really defeat you if he divides his troops. If you, Wang Ling, divide your troops again...will Ma Su's three thousand light cavalry be vegetarians?

Since Wang Ling did not dare to divide his troops, he could only mobilize his entire army and attack Dingying with superior force. It seems that there are only 2,000 people guarding the city. Except for the support of 2,000 Shu troops on the mountain a few miles away, there is basically no big threat.

"Quickly build siege equipment and besiege Dingying City in a few days!" Wang Ling pondered for a while and made the same choice as Zhang He did when he besieged Jieting.

Although the opponent's troops were surrounded by troops, they were not large in number. As long as the army breaks Dingying City, everything will be fine.

Now Wang Ling can only comfort himself like this...

In a few days, Wang Ling quickly built siege equipment, and then an army of 40,000 pressed forward. Thousands of soldiers and horses were used to resist the 2,000 Shu troops on the Western Mountain, and thousands more soldiers and horses were used to protect the baggage, and then 30,000 soldiers and horses were pressed forward.

Of course, Wang Ling was still wary of the Shu army's cavalry, and had built many chariots and antlers early in preparation. Once the Han cavalry appeared, Wang Ling immediately gathered his troops and horses, relying on his antlers and chariots to resist.

Everything was ready, Wang Ling felt that it was almost safe, so he climbed up cautiously.

Thirty thousand Wei troops surrounded them on all sides and launched a fierce attack on the city head. A large number of siege equipment was brought up and the attack on the city head began.

Dingying was responsible for guarding Jufu, a good seedling discovered and promoted by Zhuge Liang. This time I traveled with Ma Su and was entrusted with an important task by Ma Su.

Facing the offensive launched by Wang Ling, Jufu was not in a hurry and ordered all the soldiers to lie down at the top of the city without ordering anyone not to take the lead.

The Wei army's siege troops approached the city head cautiously, but they were not counterattacked by the Shu army. Then some people began to become bolder, and all the Wei soldiers moved much faster.

It was not until the ladder was almost erected on the top of the city that the Han army's soldiers and horses stood up in unison at Jufu's order and launched a surprise attack on the Wei army.

Relying on the power of the continuous crossbow, countless arrows and crossbow arrows poured out, falling like locusts on the Wei army's formation. The Wei army was caught off guard and many of their troops were shot dead, and their charge into formation briefly caused a riot.

Taking advantage of this gap, Jufu quickly directed the Han army to change, brought out countless rockets and kerosene, and began to set fire to the Wei army's siege equipment.

The flaming oil quickly poured down, fell under the city, and quickly ignited a raging fire. The wooden siege equipment leaning against the city was immediately engulfed in flames, burning together with the nearby soldiers.

"help me!"

"Fire! Put out the fire quickly! The ladder is going to be burned!"

"Xisha! Who brought the fine sand! Put out the fire quickly!"

The Wei army's formation was instantly disrupted by the flames, and the connection between the front and back immediately became chaotic.

Regarding kerosene, the Wei army had a precautionary measure, which was to throw fine sand to cover the flames.

However, because the Shu army was covered by arrows at close range, the Wei army's formation was temporarily confused and the fire was not extinguished in time. The siege equipment has been transported up. Although it has not yet been set up on the top of the city, it is already very close.

As a result, before the Wei army was ready, a large number of siege equipment was drowned in the fire.

Lacking siege equipment, the Wei army began to want to withdraw, but at this time Jufu ordered the Han army to fire with all their strength. A large number of Wei soldiers were shot and killed in the chaos of retreat, and the losses were extremely heavy.

"What's going on? There are still experts in Xishu? Is Wang Ping here too?" Wang Ling couldn't help but feel a little stunned when he saw such a mess.

Zhuge Liang is not here, Ma Di is not here, and even Wang Ping, who is known as the best defender in Xishu, is not here. Why haven't I fought yet?

Isn’t it said in Xishu that a fire in Yiling burned all the talents? Why do I feel now that I, Da Wei, am the one who really lacks talents?

Jufu's performance gave Wang Ling a big surprise, making him realize that it seemed that without Ma Su, the Shu army would not be so easy to attack.

"Your Majesty, next we should..."

"Continue to attack!" Wang Ling frowned, pondered for a moment and then quickly issued the order.

"I don't believe it. I can't beat him without Ma Su in the city?"

After the great Taiyuan Wang family, am I so shameless? !

The first round of attack was repelled by Jufu's showmanship. The Wei army retreated and reorganized, and launched the second round of attack again.

Siege battles generally involve fighting for endurance, and there are still few people like Ma Su who can complete several rounds of attacks in one battle and get there first.

Facing the Wei army's successive offensives, Jufu calmly commanded the two thousand Shu army to resist.

As a direct descendant of Fei Ma Su, Jufu basically relied on his own hard work to reach his current position. His ability is absolutely excellent. With him in charge, Wei Jun's idea of ​​quickly taking Dingying will basically come to nothing.

The Wei army took turns to attack the city of Dingying, but was repelled by the Shu army time and time again. Wang Ling watched helplessly as his 30,000 soldiers and horses attacked in turn, only to be blocked again and again by 2,000 Shu troops in a small city.

This made Wang Ling even more unacceptable. How could an unknown young general from Xishu be so powerful? And we, the Wei Dynasty, have the vastness of the world and the wealth of the Central Plains, but we are reduced to letting an old man in his sixties take over?

Who is the big country?

At this moment, Wang Ling couldn't understand all this, and he didn't know that the decline of talents was inevitable from the moment Cao Wei's ninth-level system was launched.

In fact, the more famous generals in Shu Han, such as Jiang Wei, Zhang Yi, Liu Yin and others, would not be able to hold high positions in Cao Wei's life. This is also the reason why although Cao Wei has a great family and a great business, there are fewer and fewer capable talents.

However, Wang Ling didn't understand this, he just felt a little unconvinced.

Then the Wei army began to attack Dingying City in turn, and a large number of siege equipment poured out. The two sides besieged Dingying for two days, but Wang Ling was still unable to do anything about Dingying.

On the third day of fighting between the two sides, Wang Ling personally rushed to the front army to command the troops and horses, encouraging the soldiers to move forward bravely.

However, it didn't seem to work. Not only did it fail to boost the morale of the soldiers, but it also allowed the Shu army to discover that the Wei army was on top.

The two sides fought until the afternoon, but Wang Ling still failed to make any achievements. When he was planning to withdraw his troops again, a sudden army suddenly appeared.

"Your Majesty! Smoke and dust suddenly rose from the rear of our army! The cavalry from Xishu is coming!" A scout rushed back and reported to Wang Linghui.

"What?" Wang Ling's heart skipped a beat. He turned around and saw smoke and dust rising behind his house.

Ma Su led his three thousand cavalry to kill!

"Damn it! This bastard Ma Su really knows how to choose the right time! The whole army retreated to the camp and defended it with the antlers of the chariot as a barrier!"
