Chapter 226 Being kept in the dark

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Cao Ruizhi led his army to Jinyang. In the past few days, he hardly stopped for a day and sent troops to attack Jinyang City every day.

Just——

There are more than 20,000 Han troops in Jinyang City at the moment. Under the leadership of Wei Yan in the past few days, although the Wei army has been attacking fiercely, they have not been able to break it.

However, the Wei army lost a lot of troops.

As the saying goes, if you kill one thousand enemies, you will lose eight hundred.

The Han army relied on a solid city to hold on. If the Wei army wanted to attack the city, it would have to pay a high price. Cao Rui had more than 50,000 troops when he first arrived in Jinyang. After several consecutive attacks on the city in the past few days, he now had only More than 30,000 people descended.

Now——

Cao Rui especially needs soldiers and horses, many, many soldiers and horses.

Fortunately, Sima Division led his troops to help in time.

If the previous days were followed, after breakfast, the Wei army would launch another attack on Jinyang, but today, Cao Rui changed his mind.

After the Wei army had breakfast, the entire army stayed in the camp.

Cao Rui is waiting.

He would wait until Sima Division's reinforcements arrived, and then re-plan how to attack Jinyang City.

"Go and have a look!" Cao Rui waited for a while and seemed a little anxious: "Go and see if Master Sima has arrived."

"No!"

The guard immediately ran out and came to the camp gate to watch.

"General Sima hasn't arrived yet?"

The guard looked around and then asked the camp gate guard.

The guards at the gate of the camp all shook their heads to express that they had not seen a single soldier.

The guard seemed a little disappointed and was about to turn around and go back to report to Cao Rui. Just when he was about to turn around, there was suddenly a rapid sound of horse hooves.

"Coming!"

"Coming...General Sima has arrived...General Sima must have arrived."

The guard roared excitedly, then raised his eyes and looked into the distance, only to see a cavalry looming in the distance, rushing towards this direction covered with dust.

"Just wait and see...I'll report it to Your Majesty!"

The guard immediately trotted back to the central military tent.

But the guards at the gate of the camp were a little nervous. Although they had received news that Sima Division would lead reinforcements, they were not sure that the cavalry in the distance was Sima Division's cavalry before seeing Sima Division.< /p>

Now we are on the battlefield.

"Close the village gate!"

A guard hurriedly ordered: "Wait until we are sure it is General Sima...it will not be too late to open the village gate then!"

As soon as the guard finished speaking, several guards in front of the village gate immediately closed the village gate. At the same time, the soldiers responsible for guarding the village gate immediately stood ready and stared at the cavalry in the distance.

"Drive!"

"Drive!"

The speed of the cavalry is very fast, almost as fast as a cup of tea. The cavalry team that was still vaguely visible before can now be seen clearly by the guards in front of the village gate.

"It's General Sima!"

"It's General Sima!"

A guard pointed at the flag of the incoming army and the uniforms of the cavalry. He was very sure that this cavalry was the reinforcements led by Sima Division.

Because——

In front of the cavalry team, there was an eye-catching flag with two big characters written on it - Sima.

However, although they were sure that the incoming troops were reinforcements, the camp gate guards did not open the camp gate immediately, but continued to wait for the incoming troops to approach.

Not long after, the cavalry came to the village gate.

"Please report quickly!" Before the cavalry arrived at the gate of the village, a middle-aged general raised his hands at the gate and said: "We are the subordinates of General Sima, and we have been ordered to come to your Majesty's aid."

"May I ask the general's name..." the guard at the camp gate asked kindly, "I might as well go and explain it to His Majesty."

"Captain Wende of the Cavalry——" the middle-aged general said loudly.

Wende?

The guards in front of the village gate have all heard of this name.

Wende, whose courtesy name was Zhongxin, was Wenqin's cousin. He had followed the general Sima Yi on his expedition to Wuguan and became the cavalry captain.

After confirming the identity of the general, the guard cupped his hands and said: "General Wen, please wait a moment... I will go to your Majesty for instructions now!"

In fact, there was no need for him to ask for instructions, because the guards at the Zhongjun tent had already gone in in advance to tell Cao Rui that General Sima had arrived.

So when the guard at the camp gate ran in not far away, the guard at the central military tent shouted to him: "Your Majesty has orders to send a message to the general to enter the tent."

"No!"

The guard immediately turned back and signaled the guard guarding the village gate to open the gate and let Wende enter the tent to see him.

Zhiqua——

As the village gate slowly opened, Wende and his cavalry, who had been quiet and submissive before, suddenly roared: "Kill!"

"Kill!"

Thousands of cavalry suddenly rushed towards the camp, shocking the guards in front of the camp. Before they could react, the cavalry had already rushed through the camp.

"They are Han troops!"

"They are Han troops!"

"Quickly stop them!"

"Hold them off..."

Suddenly, the Wei army's camp was in chaos. They thought they were waiting for reinforcements from the Sima Division, but they thought that this cavalry was actually a fake Han army. As soon as the gate of the camp was opened, they started killing like crazy.

Come in.

As for the cavalry general named Wende, he was naturally not Wenqin's cousin Wende. He was Zhao Tong, the eldest son of the famous Han general Zhao Yun.

Zhao Tongtong took the lead and went straight to the Zhongjun tent. His goal was very clear, which was to go to the Zhongjun tent to capture Cao Wei Emperor Cao Rui.

As the saying goes, to catch the thief first, catch the king.

As long as Cao Rui is captured or killed, there will be no need to fight this battle again.

However, the gate of the village was still a certain distance from the Chinese army's tent. The Wei army saw that the original reinforcements suddenly turned into enemy troops. Although they were a little panicked, they still blocked the Han army led by Zhao Tong on the spot.

"Kill!"

"Capture Cao Rui alive!"

Zhao Tong shouted loudly while galloping.

"Block!"

"Quickly block it!"

A group of Wei troops immediately rushed forward. Naturally, they would not let Zhao lead his army into the Chinese army's tent. They needed to protect the safety of their emperor Cao Rui.

Just——can they stop it?

...

As more and more Wei troops rushed out, Zhao Tong not only did not panic, but instead aroused his murderous intention.

What's more, the Han cavalry led by Zhao Tong was well prepared, but the Wei soldiers rushed to fight. Therefore, even if a lot of Wei troops rushed out, they were unable to resist the menacing Han cavalry.

Inside the Chinese military tent.

It has been learned that the reinforcements coming from Sima Division are the Han cavalry led by Zhao Tong. Cao Rui is in a panic, and the guards are even more confused.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, leave quickly!"

"Quick, quick, quick!"

"..."

Supported by a group of guards, Cao Rui rushed out of the central military tent before he could even put on his clothes. Then he rode a war horse and hurried eastward.

At this time, Zhao Tong had already killed the generals and saw a group of people running out of the central military tent, as well as the man surrounded by the guards.

"The one riding the white horse is Cao Rui."

"Kill Cao Rui!"

"Kill Cao Rui!"

The Han cavalry suddenly screamed and killed. They all stared at Cao Rui who was running wildly in front of them. They didn't care at all about the Wei troops rushing around. They just urged their horses to gallop forward to catch up with Cao Rui who was running away.< /p>

"Stop them!"

"Stop them!"

Although the generals of the Wei army kept shouting, it was difficult for the soldiers to resist. As soon as they rushed forward, they were greeted by the sabers of the Han army.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

In an instant, people in the Wei army's camp suddenly fell on their backs, and shouts of killing were heard everywhere.
