Seeing Ma Chao, the killer, charging towards him, Liang Xing didn't dare to resist, so he turned around and ran directly into the military formation.
As soon as Liang Xing ran away, Candidate and Zhang Heng did not hesitate to turn around and run away. Ma Wan on the side also shot Ma Wan with Xu Huang, forcing Ma Teng away and withdrew into the military formation.
As soon as several generals withdrew, the situation reversed instantly. Originally, they bullied the many and had high morale, but now that Cheng Yi was killed and Liang Xingcandied and several others were defeated, their morale hit rock bottom.
Ma Chao's side, with the courage to kill the enemy, directly chased Liang Xing and others into the formation, while Ma Jiajun's morale was like a rainbow, following closely behind, as if it was not them who were short of people now, but the candidate Liang Xing.
Make a difference.
Liang Xing and the others don't care about morale now. If they continue to fight with Ma Chao, they may die suddenly on the spot. They also want to surrender to Yuan Shu and become rich men and starve to death.
The battle in the city took a turn, and Ma Chao's army rushed into Liang Xing's side without fear of death. Liang Xing and his coalition forces were now at a disadvantage.
They each fought on their own, hoping that others could resist Ma Chao so that they could retreat safely. However, the more this happened, the more obvious their tendency to retreat became.
The disorganized coalition forces could only tremble under the iron hooves of Ma Chao's army, without any resistance.
Just as Ma Chao and the others were killing everyone, Yuan Shu's army outside the city finally arrived outside Cangsong City.
"Lord, Zilong and the others are already in place."
Xun You directly reported Zhao Yun's situation to Yuan Shu.
"Siege the city and don't let any enemy go."
Yuan Shu had nothing more to say and directly ordered the army to attack the city.
"Dong dong dong."
"Dong dong dong."
"Dong dong dong."
Hundreds of war drums were beating together, and the thundering sound was like a muffled thunder, resounding throughout the pines.
Ma Chao and Ma Teng were about to fight when they suddenly heard the continuous sound of drums and couldn't help but be startled.
"what sound?"
Ma Chao shot away the three soldiers in front of him and frowned.
"The war drums outside the city are not good. Yuan Shu smelled them and led his army to kill them."
Compared to Ma Chao's doubts, Ma Teng's heart trembled. At this point, the sound of war drums came from outside the city. It was obvious that Yuan Shu had discovered the changes in the city and led his men to kill him.
"Father, what should we do?"
Hearing that it was Yuan Shu who came to kill him, Ma Chao, who was as powerful as Ma Chao, felt a chill in his heart. You must know that Zhao Yun alone is not a match for him, not to mention that Yuan Shu has more than one Zhao Yun, Gao Lan, Wen Chou, Dian Wei and Han Sui.
None of Yan Xing in the tent is a fool.
Regardless of the fact that he is now killing everyone and is invincible, if the opponents were not those trash candidates, but Yuan Shu's elite soldiers, he would not dare to be so unscrupulous even if he had a hundred courages.
"what to do?
Stop the pursuit, immediately lead the people to evacuate Cangsong, and return to Guzang to defend."
The current situation no longer allows them to continue killing. If Yuan Shu breaks the city, then all of his troops will probably be buried here. This is not what he wants.
So now the only thing he can do is to escape and return to Guzang, where he has been operating for many years, has a deep foundation, and the city has strong walls, which allows him to resist for a while longer.
"good."
Hearing Ma Teng's words, Ma Chao was relieved, because he knew that if he wanted to fight against Yuan Shu with his own few troops, it would be like a mantis trying to use his arm as a chariot, and a fly trying to shake a tree.
Without hesitation, Ma Jiajun, led by Ma Chao and Ma Teng, ran towards the north gate and returned to Guzang through the north gate.
As soon as Ma Teng retreated, the pressure on Liang Xing and the others immediately disappeared, and they finally had time to breathe.
"Why did Ma Teng suddenly retreat?"
After gathering their troops and horses, Liang Xing and others were immediately confused. They didn't understand why Ma Teng suddenly retreated when he was killing well.
"Listen, what is this sound?"
Originally, they were being hunted, so why did they have to think about anything else? But now it suddenly became quiet, and they also heard the rumble of war drums outside the city.
"War drums?
War drums outside the city?
It was Yuan Shu who came to kill him, no wonder Ma Teng and the others did not dare to continue the pursuit."
Ma Wan immediately reacted. It was Yuan Shu who smelled the smell and led his men to kill him. No wonder Ma Teng was so frightened that he stopped chasing and must have run away.
"Hahahaha, I'll wait until heaven dies. Old Ma Teng, you too will have this day."
The candidate couldn't help but laugh loudly when he heard Ma Wan's words. After all, they were really beaten badly by Ma Teng just now. If Yuan Shu hadn't come, he suspected that he might be killed in Cangsong City.
"So what do we do now?"
Zhang Heng glanced at the three of them and couldn't help feeling depressed. If they could defeat Ma Teng in this battle and deliver Cangsong City to Yuan Shu, then it would be somewhat useful in Yuan Shu's eyes. But looking at his miserable state now,
It’s so bad.
"What else can we do? Gather our troops and horses and open the south gate to welcome Yuan Shu into the city."
Liang Xing was also extremely depressed. Who knew that Ma Chao was such a tough guy? They couldn't defeat him one against five, and even Cheng Yi was shot to death. They were completely embarrassed this time.
"Well, that's all it can do."
The other three people also nodded, then gathered their troops and headed for the south gate, because Yuan Shu's camp was to the south of Cangsong City. If he wanted to attack, the main force would definitely gather at the south gate.
The army marched all the way to the south gate, and there were not many soldiers and horses at the south gate. When they saw Liang Xing and others coming, they immediately put down their weapons and surrendered without any hesitation.
"Put down the drawbridge and open the city gate."
Liang Xing ignored these people and directly ordered the city gate to be opened.
"promise."
After hearing Liang Xing's order, the soldiers responsible for guarding the gate did not dare to hesitate and hurriedly lowered the suspension bridge outside the city, and then the city gate, which weighed as much as a thousand kilograms, slowly opened.
"Lord, the city gate is open."
Seeing the gate of Cangsong City open, Xun You's eyes were extremely bright. Even in the middle of the night, he could still feel the piercing gaze.
"It seems that the war in the city should have an outcome. Let's wait and see."
Although the city gate was open, Yuan Shu was not in a hurry. He could really afford to wait under the current situation.
"promise."
Xun You nodded to Yuan Shu. There was really no need to be too impatient in the current situation. Anyway, the entire Cangsong City was already surrounded by him. It was just time, it didn't matter.
When Yuan Shu did not come in, Liang Xing and others looked at each other. Without hesitation, the four of them jumped over the suspension bridge and arrived in front of Yuan Shu's army.
Seeing someone coming out, Yuan Shu also gave a slight signal, and then took Dian Wei and Wen Chou to take a step forward and came to the front of the army.
"In front of you is Master Yuan Zhoumu."
It was dark at night, and Liang Xing and others couldn't see clearly the appearance of the person coming, so they could only speak loudly and ask.
