Chapter 924 Hope is still there!

Chen Gong saw the Shu army coming from behind and was worried about gains and losses again.

The Shu army won, Zhang Xiu defended Wancheng, and the people were safe.

However, Liu Bei's defeat was undoubtedly a huge blow to the Han army. Among the choices between the two, Chen Gong felt torment and pain in his heart, but in the end he would undoubtedly choose Liu Bei and help Liu Bei. This was a decision he had to make.

choice, because he is Liu Bei's adviser and must support Liu Bei.

War is like walking on human bones.

Chen Gong took a deep breath and said: "My lord, the Shu army is here, you can give the order."

Liu Bei said in a deep voice: "Ma Chao lives in the military camp, eats from me, drinks from me, and everything is provided to him by me. It's time for him to contribute to me. Ma Chao wants to defeat me with the help of my power.

Wang Can, he also has to fight in battle." There was a lot of resentment in his tone.

At first Ma Chao abandoned Han Sui and wanted to go to the Central Plains.

But checkpoints were set up in places east of Chang'an to capture him, so Ma Chao changed his direction.

Ma Chao drove east from Qingni Pass south of Chang'an, bypassed Nanyang County, and then prepared to go north to defect to Cao Cao or Yuan Shao, but he was met by Liu Bei's men on the way. Seeing Ma Chao's extraordinary martial arts, Liu Bei wanted to recruit Ma Chao, but Ma Chao did not

Yes. In Ma Chao's eyes, Liu Bei's power is not strong, and he lives in a crack. Ma Chao is unwilling to surrender to Liu Bei.

What Ma Chao values ​​​​is not a person's benevolence and morality, but strength.

Liu Bei has benevolence and morality, but does not have enough strength, so Ma Chao cannot become Liu Bei's general.

Liu Bei had no choice but to entertain Ma Chao.

It just so happened that Liu Bei was about to attack Nanyang County at this time. Chen Gong thought that Wang Can would come. When Ma Chao found out, he immediately volunteered and wanted to use Liu Bei's power to kill Wang Can. Therefore, Ma Chao stayed in Liu Bei's military camp, but Ma Chao had no intention of surrendering to Liu Bei.

, and finally wanted to leave Liu Bei and go north to join other princes.

Ma Chao was obsessed with leaving, and Liu Bei was certainly in a bad mood.

Therefore, Liu Bei had resentment towards Ma Chao.

Liu Bei's eyes turned cold and he ordered: "Send an order for Ma Chao to lead six thousand soldiers to resist the Shu army."

Chen Gong said: "Isn't six thousand soldiers a little small to resist Wang Can's army?"

Liu Bei stared at Chen Gong and said: "Gongtai, Ma Chao's task is only to hold off Wang Can's soldiers, and our most important thing is to capture Wancheng, otherwise we will be caught between Wang Can and Zhang Xiu, which will be very dangerous.

We must quickly capture Wancheng, then rely on the defense of the city wall to hold Wancheng, and then wait for Runan to send another army, or to lobby other princes to attack Wang Can."

Chen Gong cupped his hands and said: "My lord is wise!"

Liu Bei waved his hand and said: "Give me the order!"

Suddenly, a soldier quickly conveyed Liu Bei's order.

After receiving the order, Ma Chao and Ma Xiu led their troops to fight out.

Lu Meng, Dian Wei, Zhou Cang and others led five thousand soldiers to attack. They were about to reach the rear of Liu Bei's camp, but they found a group of soldiers suddenly coming out of Liu Bei's rear.

Looking around, the men leading the troops were actually Ma Chao and Ma Xiu.

After Lu Meng saw Ma Chao, his eyes suddenly widened with excitement.

Dian Wei was also very excited.

He waved the halberds in his hands vigorously, constantly urging the war horse under his crotch to run faster, and shouted loudly: "Ma, your grandpa Jia Dian is here, prepare to die!"

The soldiers of the two armies worked hard, and in the blink of an eye a melee began.

Dian Wei rode on horseback and charged at him like a savage beast, killing all the Han troops in his path.

After Ma Chao saw Lu Meng, it could be said that he was extremely jealous of his enemies. He had found out clearly that Ma Teng was killed by Lu Meng. Youdao said that father and mother are irreconcilable. As a son of man, how could he not take revenge? Ma Chao gritted his teeth.

, the prancing horse raised his spear and the tiger-headed golden spear and headed towards the direction of Lu Meng, hoping to kill Lu Meng.

However, Dian Wei appeared on the way and quickly stopped Ma Chao.

Ma Chao remembered Dian Wei clearly.

It's the black guy in front of me, call him "horse".

Regardless of what Ma Chao was thinking, Dian Wei directly picked up the iron halberd in his hand and smashed it at Ma Chao. The two iron halberds flashed through the air, like streaks in the sky, which were very dazzling.

Ma Chao and Zhao Yun had fought several times, but they were never defeated by Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun was steadily suppressing him. Now he suddenly fought against Dian Wei, and he felt endless pressure, which was difficult to deal with. Dian Wei's iron halberd was fast,

It is very powerful, and its moves are deadly. After being hit by the iron halberd, it will either kill or be injured. It is very vicious. Ma Chao is already very desperate, but Dian Wei is even more desperate.

Comparing the two, Ma Chao's momentum immediately dropped a bit.

However, Ma Chao was able to protect himself and was not immediately killed by Dian Wei.

On the other side, Huang Xu and Matthew competed.

When Ma Xiu saw Huang Xu carrying a ten-foot-long sword with a sharp edge and a cold light, he felt that Huang Xu's martial arts was extraordinary. Based on this idea, Ma Xiu adopted a usual group fight strategy and led a group of men.

The soldiers fought with Huang Xu, while he stood beside him on horseback, stabbing out from time to time without any danger.

The Han soldiers were very desperate when killing.

If they don't fight hard, they can't go to the city to snatch women and money, so they must risk their lives to fight.

Once Wancheng is breached, the attacking soldiers can rush in and loot without restraint, but they still have to resist the Shu army here. Isn't this just watching the women and money slip away? The soldiers were very fierce in order to seize the time,

Each and every one of them was like a thirsty man who had taken aphrodisiacs and turned completely into a madman, fighting desperately.

It would be difficult for Huang Xu to carry out such a killing.

Fortunately, five thousand Shu soldiers came to kill him, which could relieve him some pressure.

Furthermore, Lu Meng also led his troops into the Han army, like a sharp sword, very powerful.

Ma Chao and Ma Xiu led 6,000 Han troops and 5,000 Shu troops to fight. The battle between the two sides was in full swing, but it could not affect the situation on the city tower, nor could it affect Liu Bei's army attacking the city.

On the city tower, it was already in danger.

Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu were covered in blood and very tired.

Fortunately, the two of them were well prepared, otherwise Wancheng would have fallen long ago. When Zhang Xiu saw the flag of the Shu army flying in the air outside the city, he shouted: "Soldiers, reinforcements are coming. Guard Wancheng, hold on."

Wancheng." After the voice fell, the defenders on the city tower also saw the dark Shu army rushing outside the city, and they were overjoyed.

The Shu army is really here!

When the soldiers guarding the city confirmed the news, they were in high spirits and very excited.

The soldiers guarding the city suddenly regained their second youth, cheered up, and enthusiastically killed the enemy. When Zhang Xiu's voice rang out from the tower, it was a moderate blow to the Han army.

The Han army thought they could break into the city and rob it, but with the arrival of the Shu army, their plan was likely to fail.

When Zhang Fei saw Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ren, he shouted: "The Han army will win, follow me and kill them."

He held the Zhangba snake spear and rushed forward.

The snake spear flashed across the air quickly, like a ghostly lightning. All the city defenders who were touched by the snake spear were killed by Zhang Fei, and no one survived.

When Zhang Xiu saw Zhang Fei coming to kill him, a solemn look appeared on his face.

He and Zhang Ren teamed up to fight Zhang Fei, but they were still overwhelmed by Zhang Fei's momentum and found it difficult to attack with all their strength.

Zhang Ren reacted quickly and shouted: "Spear soldiers, kill the enemy!" On the city tower, there were some small formations of spear soldiers, with spears nearly ten feet long and densely grouped together, which was very powerful.

Seeing the spearmen coming, Zhang Ren said again: "Brother, let's join the spearmen and hold Zhang Fei down."

"good!"

Zhang Xiu agreed and quickly joined the spearmen.

Zhang Ren and Zhang Ren, one on the left and one on the right, were like two divine needles that stabilized the sea, which stabilized the spearmen. All the spearmen quickly thrust out their spears. Even though Zhang Fei could disperse the spearmen, Zhang Fei

Ren and Zhang Xiu supported him, they were like two nails hammered into it, firmly holding the spearmen in place and preventing Zhang Fei from succeeding.

Zhang Fei was unable to eliminate Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu, and became even more irritable.

He yelled and yelled, but it still didn't work.

The situation on the city tower began to change little by little as the Shu army came to attack, and the Han army's offensive also declined little by little, losing its original momentum.

In fact, the reason why Lu Meng led his troops to kill was not because of the number of people.

On the one hand, he wanted to attract the attention of Liu Bei's soldiers and relieve the pressure on Wancheng; on the other hand, he wanted to boost the morale of the army and encourage the soldiers defending the city to resist desperately. As long as they continued to resist, they would win. This also told the defenders

The soldiers of Shu have already arrived. As long as they wait a little longer, they will win.

Hope is not dashed yet!
