Chapter 331 The highest treatment for being beaten by Zhang Zhaoma (9,000-character chapter)(2/2)
In the camp of the Western Liang army in Weinan, all the fortifications were facing the west side to guard against the enemy from Chen Cang, and the traps were blocked and the red antlers and thorns, and even the perforations in the Wanglou were all facing west.
Guan Yu's troops landed around the back and turned back from the east to fight, and all of these fortifications were useless. Everyone was just a fair position war.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the village wall was hit by fire and broke through several places, and obstacles and traps were roughly swept out of two roads. Then Zhao Yun's five thousand cavalry rushed in directly.
Originally, Lei Xu had more soldiers in Weinan Camp than Guan Yu, and while fighting, the Xiliang Army also organized a cavalry to retaliate, which once put a lot of pressure on Guan Yu.
But when Guan Yu broke through the wall and let Zhao Yun in, the battlefield south of the Wei River and west of the Wugong River lost all suspense.
The two Sima, the other Sima of the Western Liang Cavalry, who led the team to retaliate, did not even leave their names. They hedge against Zhao Yun, and were stabbed by a single shot when they met.
Zhao Yun's iron cavalry was in a wedge formation, flocking and charging, killing Lei Xu's soldiers, corpses, and thousands of people were driven into the Wei River and drowned. More large troops fled eastwards and were stabbed by Zhao Yun's back. In the end, they almost stopped three times and two. The remaining people jumped into the Wugong water and swam across the river to escape. It was entirely up to Zhao Yun's cavalry to ride their horses across the river, so they temporarily escaped.
Lei Xu himself took off his armor and wore pajamas and swam through Wugong Water to escape. He didn't want the camps and brothers west of Wugong Water. Wugong Water was much narrower than the Wei River, and it was only about ten feet wide in spring, so there were still many Western Liang soldiers who swam there.
After Lei Xu gained a foothold on the east bank, he saw that he had nearly 10,000 troops on the west bank, and only two or three thousand escaped the river. He quickly drew out his sword and shouted that the whole team would encourage military discipline:
"Everyone keep it steady! Don't panic! Zhao Yun's cavalry cannot abandon their horses and swim across the river. We cannot be in chaos now. Keep the coast of Wugong Water and kill some of the Zhao Yun cavalry whom you are lucky enough to swim over. We will be safe! There are still five or six thousand brothers in the camp at the foot of Mazhong Mountain. We can still stabilize the confrontation across the river!"
Lei Xu shouted, but he was actually trembling with cold, but after he said this, the Xiliang soldiers stabilized their position.
Isn’t it just that nearly 10,000 main players were all given to the West Coast for free! There are 6,000 people in the camp that monitored Ma Chao on the east coast! They can still defend!
...
Unfortunately, Lei Xu and the fantasies of Xiliang soldiers were soon shattered.
After Zhao Yun led the cavalry to the edge of the Wugong water, he was indeed not reckless enough to let the cavalry dismount and swim across the river to chase. But Zhao Yun immediately turned the gun and rushed south along the Wugong water-
On the south of Zhao Yun, there is also the Baoxie Road intersection on the Wugong Water shore, and Lei Xu's camp and Guanxiao Wall. The Guanxiao wall is used to block the exits of Wugong Water and Baoxie Plank Road. Jia Xu's arrangement last year was to prevent Fa Zheng and Xu Huang's troops from occasionally coming out to "draw grass valley" to supplement military rations and plunder the surrounding areas of Mei County.
There is no doubt that this fortification is a typical example of "defending the south but not the north". All pits, deer antlers, and horses are facing south. The battlements of the city walls are also facing south. Fa Zheng is guarding against it. Because under normal circumstances, the north side is its own camp, so there is no need to defend against it.
But Lei Xu ran away and gave up his brothers and fled to the east bank of Wugongshui, so the backs of the Xiliang soldiers who blocked the wall of Baoxie Road, were completely abandoned.
Zhao Yun could directly stab them, but the result was just like when Guan Yu stabbed Beiyuan Weiqiao Village half an hour ago. Hundreds of soldiers on the wall were shot to death by Zhao Yun's cavalry, or Zhao Yun personally led his soldiers to rush up from the steps of the wall, and all were killed.
As soon as the guards were killed and the door was closed, Zhao Yun was ready to welcome Fa Zheng to join him - he removed the enemy troops blocking Fa Zheng's exit, so wouldn't Fa Zheng join him?
However, what surprised Zhao Yun was that when Wugong Pass closed and opened, the troops that rushed out of the Wuzhangyuan Camp area to the south were not led by Fa Zheng or Xu Huang, but a tall and strong black man wearing heavy black armor.
Zhao Yun couldn't see clearly from a distance in the darkness and dared not recognize him. He rode his horse within five steps before he recognized it as Zhang Fei.
According to Liu Bei's instructions before the war, Zhang Fei and Wang Ping did have to lead 20,000 troops to go to Baoxia Road to help the battle, but Zhang Fei himself also arrived.
Zhang Fei excitedly patted Zhao Yun's shoulder armor and said, "Zilong, it's a good place! I, Old Zhang, arrived two days ago, and my elder brother didn't know. My elder brother still gave Xiaozhi a reply to him and asked him to cooperate. Since I'm here, of course I came here myself.
Don't worry! Lei Xu couldn't stand steadily on the east bank of Wugongshui. At least we still have dozens of rafts and boats here. In winter, Xiaozhi was idle and had someone cut trees and built some small boats in the Qinling Mountains, just to communicate with Ma Chao in the critical moment. Now it is just for crossing the river to pursue."
(Note: Ma Chao is only 18 years old this year, so Ma Teng has not given him a name, so his colleagues can only call him his name)
Zhang Fei said, taking dozens of small boats with his soldiers, asking Zhao Yun to patrol and shoot in the northern section of the Wugong Water front to suppress Lei Xu, and attract attention. Then Zhang Fei took his infantry and crossed the river and landed directly from the north of the camp wall where Lei Xu surrounded Ma Chao, and was more than a hundred steps away from behind.
Not only were thousands of soldiers landing directly, but more light-armored infantry under Zhang Fei swam across the river.
Lei Xu had no foothold in the chaos, and was highly nervous and guarded against Zhao Yun. He was suddenly attacked by Zhang Fei, a protector in the dark, and gained a foothold in Hedong.
Zhang Fei would not be polite to Lei Xu. Because he was also crossing the river and fighting in the same way as his second brother tonight, it was difficult to pursue Lei Xu.
But he could directly attack the Xiliang Army camp at the foot of Mazuoshan Mountain from behind from behind, and also back-pricked from the side without defense, so Lei Xu's back-pricked camp at the foot of Mazuoshan Mountain was instantly broken through several large holes by back-pricked.
At this moment, Lei Xu had no suspense at all and he was no longer qualified to dream.
Ma Chao, with two thousand cavalrymen, rushed out of the hole opened by Zhang Fei's backstab, rushed down from Mazuo Mountain, and looked down from a high point to Lei Xu.
Although Ma Chao's 5,000 cavalry still has 3,000 people who have not been transported to the front line in Baozhong, the only thing he can use is the two thousand people who spent the winter with him in Mazuka Mountain.
Until now, Lei Xu still had five thousand frightened birds, who were driven away three times in one night and fled three times.
However, the quality gap between soldiers is too obvious.
Lei Xu's soldiers fled from Beiyuan Weiqiao Village to Wuzhangyuan Second Village, and then to Mazhongshan Village. Their physical strength and morale all fell to the extreme. Even if there were 5,000 people in panic, they could withstand Ma Chao?
Ma Chao stood tall and rushed directly to the Wei River along the slope of the Mazhong Mountain slope. The entire battlefield was only seven or eight miles deep. Lei Xu's soldiers wailed all the way, and countless surrendered. In the end, all the rest rushed into the Wei River and drowned as if they were combed.
"Why is my life so bad! I was surrounded by Guan Yu, Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei three times overnight! In the end, Ma Chao was rushed down to the Wei River!" Lei Xu looked at the Ma Chao's gun blade pierced from his chest with jealous resentment, looking at the Ma Chao's gun blade pierced from his chest, and the last thought flashed through his heart with great resentment.
Ma Chao drew out his sword and waved it to cut off Lei Xu's head, then shook his spear and shook Lei Xu's headless body into the Wei River, and was washed away by the surging river water.
Ma Chao also took advantage of the reaction force of the corpse of Lei Xu to pull out his horse's heads and let his horse pull out his hooves from the mud by the Wei River and retreat to the dry, solid and hard ground.
"It's so dangerous. In order to kill this thief, I almost rushed over and fell into the river mud. Although this general was unknown, he was lucky. If he could be killed by Brother Guan, Brother Zhao, and Brother Zhang, and I would probably be able to brag about it if he went to the underworld."
The half of the army generals left by Zhang Ji to Lei Xu, totaling 15,000, plus the few thousand people Wang Fang sent in, were wiped out overnight, to be precise, from the third to the fourth and two o'clock hours, and it was wiped out in ashes overnight.
Either they are killed, drowned or surrendered and captured.

PS: If you don’t want to take apart the battle chapters, just complete the nine thousand words chapter in one go. This update is equivalent to the third update.
Senior Qidian said that if a chapter has too many words, it seems that subscription costs several cents, and readers will feel sorry for the money and go to the stolen board.
I'll try it once. If the subscription scores in this chapter are indeed worse than usual, I'll call it a lesson. In the future, I have to insist on being out of context when encountering this situation.
Chapter completed!
