Chapter 1216: : Attack on the city

But in the face of elite enemy scouts, Ma Chao did not dare to send scouts to the battlefield easily. His Xiliang cavalry was running out. If there were serious damages on the battlefield, he would face The enemy will be more passive.

As long as he resists the enemy for ten days, Ma Chao will retreat from Zang County and face Lu Bu in Didao.

Ma Chao also considered that the enemy would raid Di Dao. At this time, Di Dao’s position was significant. Ma Chao dispatched Ma Wan to guard Di Dao. Ma Wan’s character is still more cautious, and there are 2,000 troops in Di Dao city. If you deal with it properly, the enemy can't do anything. As for the enemy sending a large number of troops to attack Di Dao, Ma Chao is not afraid. Once the number of enemy troops outside the city decreases significantly, he will choose to take action.

There are a large number of enemy troops, and it is only necessary to cut off the enemy’s food and grass, so that the enemy can not look at each other from the beginning to the end. Grain and grass can be imagined for the status of an army. Able to retreat from Longxi.

Longxi was close to Yizhou. After Ma Chao planned to repel the enemy, he joined forces with Liu Zhang of Yizhou. No matter how stupid Liu Zhang was, he would respond to the situation in Liangzhou and Chang'an.

Two days later, the moat was filled for the coalition forces outside the city, and Ma Chao, who was always observing the number of enemy forces outside the city, was relieved secretly, seeing that it had not decreased too much.

Let’s say that Zhao Yun led the cavalry out at night. Three days later, he went to a dense forest outside Di Dao City. In order to ensure the success of the sneak attack on Di Dao, he even pretended to be ordinary people and probed the news in the city.

Although the war in Zang County affected Di Dao to a certain extent, there are still many people and businessmen who come and go at the gate of the city.

Zhao Yun glanced at the city in front of him, and a dignified expression flashed across his expression. The defenders on the city were still more rigorous, and the soldiers at the city gate organized the ordinary merchants to enter and exit the city in an orderly manner.

"What's going on in the city?" The soldier guarding the city gate stepped forward and asked after seeing Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun's appearance is extraordinary, and this soldier is sure that he has not seen Zhao Yun in the recent period.

"General, I am from Shouyang County in Xia. I heard that the enemy is attacking Zang County, so I went to the city to seek refuge with relatives and friends. I also hope that the general can be accommodating." Zhao Yun said.

The soldiers nodded, and the war in Zang County had a big impact on the entire Longxi. Most of the people in other cities rushed to Didao to take refuge.

"I don't know who you are looking for in the city?" the soldier asked.

However, just after the soldier's words fell, there was no more text. He felt the heavy weight in his hand, and his face immediately beamed with joy.

"You are not an extremely vicious person. After you arrive in the city, don't walk around at will. At night, you can't go out. Otherwise, you will be treated as a meticulous killer." Do something like this.

Zhao Yun arched his hands and said, "Thank you, General, for letting me know."

After entering the city, Zhao Yun could obviously feel the panic among the people walking on the street. Although he was walking on the street, Lu Bu was always paying attention to the direction of the city wall.

The war in Zang County caused many people to rush to Didao and mix in the crowd, but it didn't seem abrupt.

The defenders on the wall seem to be tightly guarded, but it is not the case in Zhao Yun's eyes. From the occasional movements of these soldiers, it can be seen that the reason why they maintain this posture is because of the strict orders, the soldiers on the wall From time to time, he looked back at the people in the city, and the armor worn by the soldiers also appeared to be a bit tattered.

After having a plan in mind, Zhao Yun quietly left the city.

The next day, Di Dao’s city gate was still open as usual. As the city gate was just opened, there was soon congestion at the gate. The people eager to leave the city and those eager to enter the city seemed a bit bustling for a while. , And the soldiers at the gate of the city are obviously familiar with this situation, and they did not scold them. From time to time, they embarrassed the past merchants and ordinary people and got some concrete benefits.

The soldiers were extremely miserable. They had no military pay. When the war started, they were the ones who charged at the forefront. The meals in the army would not maintain three meals a day like the army under Lu Bu did. Speaking of barely filling their stomachs, under such circumstances, how they will implement the above strict orders can be imagined.

In the eyes of the city's defenders, there is nothing more comfortable than guarding the city gates. The benefits they get in one day are enough to make them chic in the city's restaurants.

After Zhao Yun received the news from the city gate, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. With an order, Feiqi charged towards Di Dao.

Guarding Didao’s horse play is undoubtedly cautious. However, the cavalry under his command is insufficient and cannot understand the situation outside the city in time. Although Ma Chao reminded him, Ma Wan does not think that the enemy will be at this time. Appeared in Di Dao.

Of course, Ma Wan had extremely strict requirements for the defenders in the city, and even went to the city wall many times to investigate the soldiers who had not done their duties and beheaded on the spot. Under such deterrence, the soldiers acted. It's quite conscientious.

The peculiar sound of the cavalry when they charged, alarmed the defenders on the city.

A general changed his complexion and shouted: "It's a cavalryman, quickly close the city gate!"

However, at this time the city gate was in a state of congestion, and cavalry came to kill, adding a trace of panic. The people and businessmen who left the city ran towards the city gate at a very fast speed.

The soldiers guarding the city gate drew their swords and killed several people one after another. They still couldn't stop the panic at the city gate, and their complexion suddenly turned pale.

At the speed of the cavalry, they quickly approached the gate, and the defenders did not even have time to put the suspension bridge away.

"It's a flying cavalry!" a general said in horror after seeing the cavalry banner.

The soldiers in the city showed fear when they heard the words, and they had heard of the fame of Feiqi.

"Kill!" Zhao Yun took the lead and killed the city gate.

Facing ordinary people, Feiqi did not keep the slightest hand. They knew that this was a contest with the defenders. Although ordinary people caused chaos at the city gate to a great extent, if the people were left alone If they continue like this, it will be difficult for them to attack the city. After all, there are two thousand defenders in the city. Once they react, it is not easy to break the city.

Ma Wan's expression changed drastically when he heard the news from the west of the city. He didn't expect that the enemy would actually attack Di Dao at this time.

"Sergeant, sergeant, rush to the west of the city, and must drive the enemy out of the city!" Ma Wan ordered immediately.

The army in the city has not stopped training since Ma Dai arrived. This situation has caused many soldiers to complain, but they know that they can't compete with the horses and can only follow the orders.
