This is a great battle. Although Sima Lun had a history of almost completely annihilated a battalion of the Shu army, his opponent that time was just a newly formed infantry battalion of the Wei army, and it was completely different from the Wei army troops trapped this time.

The opponent Sima Lun faced this time was Tunqi Camp, one of the three major cavalry of the Wei army. This cavalry swept almost half of the world, invincible and unstoppable, and was the absolute main force of the Wei army.

If Sima Lun could burn the Tunqi Camp in this battle, it would be enough to make him famous all over the world. At the same time, it could inject a dose of heart-boosting medicine into the retreating Shu army, completely reversing the current unfavorable situation.

But regrettably, a sudden heavy rain completely wiped out Simalun's hope. This time, he was really close to success. If he had given him another moment of time, the ending would probably be another.

But unfortunately, the miracle did not happen, or it did happen, but the result was disappointing Simalun.

Is this really God's will?

Sima Lun looked up at the sky, as if he wanted to find the answer from the flying rain, but unfortunately the heaven was speechless and there was only heavy rain.

God's will is like this, and fate is so good. Even if Sima Lun is unwilling to give up, he will not be able to fight God's will. At this moment, he was really a little discouraged and could only order the withdrawal of his troops and go to Ma'anshan.

After the disaster, the Wei army naturally had no idea of ​​continuing to pursue. Although the heavy rain extinguished the fire and saved many Wei soldiers, before the heavy rain came, many Wei soldiers were buried in the sea of ​​fire or died of arrows, and countless war horses were burned to death. In this battle, the Wei army suffered heavy losses.

After such a defeat, the Wei army naturally had no idea of ​​pursuing it again. At this moment, Sima Lun led his army westward and walked extremely calmly.

When we arrived at the meeting place with Bu Xie, it was already sunrise. After a night of rest, Bu Xie's troops recovered from their fatigue and were full of energy.

The BFA also specially ordered the entire army to prepare for battle, because he knew that the Wei army's pursuers were behind him, and Sima Lun was responsible for cutting off the rear and fighting with the Wei army for a night. It must have been too scarce. At this time, they should take over and continue to fight with the Wei army.

But unexpectedly, Sima Lun came back but did not see any figure of Wei Jun. Moreover, Sima Lun's team was neat and did not look like he had just experienced a fierce battle.

Bu Xie couldn't help but feel confused. After listening to Sima Lun's statement, he realized that Sima Lun had an ambush, which severely damaged the Wei army's pursuers.

When Bu Xie heard that Sima Lun suddenly rained heavily when the Wei army was burning in the Dingying Gorge, allowing the Wei army to escape, Bu Xie slapped his thigh in annoyance. What a good opportunity. It was just missed in vain. It was really a blessing for heaven!

Sima Lun took it very calmly. People do not fight against the heavens. Since it is difficult for heaven to violate fate, Sima Lun will not worry about anything anymore. What you miss is ultimately missing. Such an opportunity may only be like this once in your life, and it will never be found again in the future.

However, for Sima Lun, this ambush battle itself is just a blocking battle. As long as he can stop the Wei army from chasing him, he will actually be successful.

It seems that the Wei army has suffered considerable losses and is no longer able to chase after it. At least this withdrawal will be extremely smooth. From this point of view, Sima Lun should be satisfied.

As for whether it can cause severe damage to the Wei army, it is not that important.

After understanding the joint, Simalun became much more calm. After joining the Bu Xies, Simalun did not dare to delay any further and immediately ordered the entire army to set sail and move towards Ma'anshan.

After successfully blocking the Wei army behind him, Sima Lun had nothing to worry about. Even if the Wei army was blocked in front, it would be no longer a problem for Sima Lun.

According to the current situation, the total number of Wei troops that captured Xiling City was only 20,000. Of course, this refers to the infantry and land troops of the Wei army. If the number of the Wei army's naval fleet was added, it would definitely be more than so many, and it might even double.

So this completely cut off Simalun's intention to counterattack Xiling. After all, the Wei army has strong naval support. Even if the Shu army retakes Xiling, it will not be able to defend it at all!

Moreover, with the loss of the defense line of the Qiting Pavilion, a large number of Wei troops will also pour into the vicinity of Xiling. Even if Sima Lun successfully blocked the attack in Dengying Gorge for a while, it would have delayed the Wei army's attack.

But the Wei army would soon emerge from the lessons of failure, regroup and launch a more fierce offensive. Even if Sima Lun could wipe out most of the troops in the Tunqi Camp in Dengying Gorge, the Wei army's attack power was far more than one, and their revenge would probably come even more fiercely.

In fact, Sima Lun and Jiang Wei have the same idea. Since the general situation in Xiling is over, don’t try to struggle dyingly. The most important thing is to be able to successfully evacuate the troops to Ma'anshan and join Jiang Weilu’s confrontation with the troops.

Without the pursuers behind him, Sima Lun didn't have to worry about the interception of the Wei army ahead. The Wei army had only about 20,000 infantry in Xiling, and there were no cavalry troops. The total number of Sima Lun and the Infantry Association was about 30,000 to 40,000. Compared with the Wei army's troops, the Shu army actually had a clear advantage.

What Sima Lun was most worried about was the Wei army's attacks from the front and back. If the Wei army behind him pursued with all his might and insisted on him, and there was another intercepting man in front of him, then this situation would be the most dangerous and unpredictable.

Now the pursuers behind him have been temporarily repelled by Sima Lun. Without any worries, Sima Lun is much more at ease. Even if the Wei army that captured Xiling dared to send troops out to intercept him halfway, Sima Lun is a god blocker to kill gods and Buddha blocks to kill Buddhas. With the power of the Wei army in Xiling, he really didn't take them seriously.

When siege, the Wei army infantry had the support of the catapult cart, so Xiling City fell. However, if the Wei army went deep into the hinterland, if the firepower support of the catapult cart was lacking, the combat effectiveness would be significantly reduced by a large margin.

What's more, does the Wei army need to send troops to garrison the Xiling City just taken down?

In this way, even if the Wei army intercepted the road halfway, it would not be possible to go out in full swing. It would only send a portion of its troops. Such power would be just a mantis arm to block the chariot and would not pose any substantial threat to the Shu army.
