    "Stubborn! What nonsense! Come on, who will help me capture this traitor!"

    Wen Han became furious, pointed at Cheng Gongying from a distance and shouted sharply. Zhao Yunting shot his horse and responded with a spear. The jade lion flew like the wind in the night light and flew towards Cheng Gongying.  Cheng Gongying did not show any panic and turned around. Zhao Yun pursued him. When Cheng Gongying was about to enter the formation, he calmly gave an order. In front of the formation, the swordsmen and shieldmen squatted down, and there were tens of thousands of crossbowmen hidden behind them.

    "Shoot him with random arrows."

    Cheng Gongying rode his horse into the formation. Hearing the sound of horse hooves behind him getting closer, he gave another order.  Suddenly thousands of arrows burst out like thunder, covering a flat surface, and rushed towards Zhao Yun like a wave. Yun did not expect that Cheng Gongying would have such an ambush in the formation, so he hurriedly hit the silver gentian spear, and the wave of arrows burst out.  Pounced past, the gentian bright silver gun flew non-stop, so fast that there was no trace. Only the sound of countless metal collisions was heard, which was dense, fast and violent, making people feel frightened.

    Wenhan's face was as dark as water dripping from his face, and he cursed himself for being impulsive and insane. If it had been any other first-rate general who had gone after him this time, he would have died under this ambush!

    Even though Zhao Yun¡¯s martial arts were extraordinary, under the violent attack of thousands of arrows, his soldiers were hit by arrows in several places, but luckily Zhao Yun avoided them in time and these arrows failed to cause much damage.

    After a wave of arrows passed, the soldiers in the Xiliang formation thought that Zhao Yun would definitely die when they saw thousands of arrows being fired.  But seeing that the offensive had passed and Zhao Yun still stood tall, the Xiliang formation was in shock.

    Cheng Gongying frowned, and his fear of Zhao Yun suddenly increased a lot, so he became determined to kill Zhao Yun.  Cheng Gongying's order sounded again, and Xiliang's tens of thousands of crossbowmen fired thousands of arrows again.  Wenhan was afraid that Zhao Yun might be at fault, so he urgently called Guan Yu to rescue him.  Guan Yu had already had this intention. The red rabbit horse moved and turned into red thunder and flew away. He rushed to Zhao Yun's side. The two peerless weapons, Qinglong Yanyue Sword and Gendan Bright Silver Spear, danced wildly, hitting the flying arrows randomly, and managed to block the first shot.  After the second wave of thousands of arrows, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun looked at each other and wanted to charge at the same time into the formation.

    Cheng Gongying was full of murderous intent and quickly ordered his crossbowmen to fire randomly, causing the arrows to overturn and fly.  Guan Yu and Zhao Yun charged for a while, but the arrows were so dense and turbulent that it was difficult to move forward.  At this moment, Cheng Gongying called the soldiers to hand over a five-stone bow. He looked at Ma Dai and the two rode forward. Cheng Gongying stretched the bow and shot at Zhao Yun. Ma Dai drew the bow in a round shape and shot at Guan Yu.  The arrows flew away instantly, like two rays of lightning, shooting away in the sea of ??arrows.

    Guan Yu and Zhao Yun were blocking the wave of arrows, when they suddenly heard the sound of two storms, and the crisis suddenly arose. They all looked at concentration, gathered their spirits, and blocked the threatening arrow hidden in the sea of ??arrows.  Long Yanyue's sword struck the ground, and Ma Dai's arrow was so powerful that it blocked the Qinglong Yanyue sword for a while. At the same time, dozens of arrows rushed towards him. Guan Yu let out a mighty roar, and the Qinglong Yanyue sword swept forward fiercely.  Breaking the arrows, and then smashing dozens of arrows that came towards him.  On the other side, Zhao Yun raised his spear and pointed at Cheng Gongying's arrow. This arrow was so powerful that it even surpassed Ma Dai's arrow by a few points. Zhao Yun was a little startled when he saw more arrows coming from all around, and he smashed it with all his strength.  Take the arrow from the spear tip, quickly light up the gentian and brighten the silver spear, and all the arrows will be shattered.

    Guan Yu and Zhao Yun were in danger. Wen Han was in front of the battle and saw it in horror. He immediately ordered the soldiers to summon them back with gold.  As soon as the trumpet sounded, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun both showed their unwillingness and retreated angrily.

    Ma Dai and Cheng Gongying shot several more arrows in succession, trying to take advantage of the situation to kill the two of them, but neither succeeded.  Seeing that Guan Yu and Zhao Yun were about to escape from the shooting range, Ma Dai thought that these two people were the pillars of Wen Han's army, so he said anxiously to Cheng Gongying.

    "Military strategist, if one of these two people can be killed, the military spirit of the thieves will definitely be turbulent! Why don't strategist ask the army to kill them all!"

    Cheng Gongying put down his bow at this time, shook his head calmly, and spoke calmly.

    "After today's observation, it is true that these two people are as rumored. Their martial arts have reached the realm of extraordinary saints. They can be killed by more than just the strength of the soldiers. If they act rashly, it will only be counterproductive and cause more unnecessary casualties."

    "The implication of the military advisor's words is that as long as these two people are still in the formation of the civilian army, our army will be helpless!"

    Ma Dai's face turned anxious and he drank unwillingly. He only hated that he could not defeat the two of them without the power to break the sky or the sea.  Cheng Gongying was still calm, his eyes were locked on Guan Yu and Zhao Yun, and there was murderous intention hidden in his indifferent words.

    "No. If you want to deal with these two peerless tiger generals, you have to use the Xiliang Jinshi. Bozhan does not need to be impatient. When the Jinshi arrives, and there is an opportunity like today, he will definitely be able to defeat one of them! Then our army will  You can take advantage of the situation and attack and defeat the Wen thieves!"

    When Cheng Gongying mentioned someone, Ma Dai suddenly lost his anxiety and woke up.  Wen Bufan's army has two peerless tiger generals, Yun Chang and Zhao Zilong. There are also Xiliang Jinshi and Ma Mengqi in the Xiliang army.  The martial arts of the three are all at the level of transcendence and sainthood, and they are comparable to each other. If one person can be put into danger first, it is not impossible for the other person to kill that person.

    Ma Dai was convinced that when Cheng Gongying saw that the Wen army had retreated and did not pursue him, he immediately went to remonstrate with Ma Dai and withdraw his troops.city.  Ma Dai obeyed and ordered the soldiers of various ministries to lead the army back to Pingxiang.

    Wen Han withdrew his troops and returned to the camp, his eyes narrowing continuously. He remembered that due to his recklessness today, two of his generals were in danger, and his heart tightened. Then he remembered that Zhang Liao had also been defeated and lost at the hands of Cheng Gongying before.  Pingxiang City, couldn't help but sigh.

    "Cheng Gongying is very scheming. You must be cautious when fighting against him in the future."

    "Why do you need to be like this, third brother? We just suffered a slight defeat today. We will fight again tomorrow. We must be careful. With the sharpness of our soldiers and the courage of Zilong and I, the Xiliang army will not be able to fight back!"

    Guan Yu came out proudly, his red and phoenix eyes filled with murderous intent. Yun Yun on the side also had a look of dissatisfaction. Remembering that he was killed in such a mess by the Xiliang army today, his heart was full of karma.

    Wenhan secretly saw that Guan Yu and Zhao Yun were both generals after all, so their vision was inevitably limited.  Wenhan suddenly thought of someone, and his face looked a little lonely.

    Since Xilong is no longer with Wenhan, Wenhan has made repeated mistakes, causing the current situation to reach a deadlock.  Wen Han suddenly had a feeling that if Xi Longfei was recuperating due to illness and joined him in the campaign in Liangzhou, perhaps his troops would have entered Nan'an and approached Ma Chao's base camp, Longxi Didao!

    ¡°When ambition and talent are separated from me, it¡¯s like losing both arms, and it¡¯s hard to find strength!¡±

    Wenhan sighed, and suddenly a soldier came to report. Li You, the military advisor who was offering wine, had already rushed outside the camp.  Wenhan's face lit up, as if he had found another source of sustenance, and he rushed outside the tent.

    Wen Han led two generals, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun, to meet Li You.  Li You saw Wenhan rushing to greet him and quickly dismounted his horse to pay his respects.  Wen Han said that he was not polite. Li You saw that Wen Han's face was slightly flustered, and he already guessed that the recent battle situation was unfavorable.  So, after reciting the ceremony, Wen Han led everyone to enter the account. Li You just sat down and asked about the recent war situation.  Wen Han looked serious and told them one by one.

    After Li You listened, his deep eyes penetrated into Wen Han's eyes and he smiled.

    "My lord is a man of great talent and strategy, and has made countless brilliance in his life. He defeated barbarians, fought against the Yellow Turbans, conquered the east of Hedong, leveled Bingzhou, and Anyongzhou. There were nearly hundreds of battles, big and small, and he was completely victorious. Today, I suffered a slight defeat, but because of my lack of caution, my lord  There is no need to worry too much. I believe that with my lord¡¯s ability, I can conquer Liangzhou and gain the foundation of conquering the world!¡±

    Li You suddenly mentioned the past, Wen Han's eyes narrowed, and countless scenes of battlefields in the past flashed through his mind. The scene of thousands of horses galloping on the battlefield shocked Wen Han's spirit.  Gradually, Wenhan's brows relaxed, his face was no longer tense, and his trademark smile appeared at the corner of his mouth again.

    "Haha! Ma's son can only be helped by being stubborn, how can he turn into a dragon and soar in an instant! All our soldiers are brave and strong, and all our officers and men are heroes. Who in the world can compete with me! Pass my order, soldiers from all villages  Rest for a night, recharge your batteries, and prepare for tomorrow¡¯s battle!¡±

    Wenhan stood up laughing, and Li You said something to make him more sharp.  Li You, Guan Yu, and Zhao Yun looked at each other and smiled, each holding his hands and accepting the order.

    At the same time, Ma Chao led his army to arrive, and a hundred thousand troops poured into the land of Pingxiang. They were so densely packed that the soldiers on the city saw that the sky and the earth within their sight were covered with thousands of troops, including 40,000 Xiliang soldiers.  , the 60,000 Qiang soldiers were divided into two groups, one led by Ma Chao and the other led by Beigong Jiyu.

    Pingxiang City is not large and can only accommodate about 200,000 people. Previously, the Xiliang Army had already entered 50,000 people, and the city was already crowded.  When Ma Chao saw that Pingxiang could not accommodate him, he ordered Beigong Jiyu to build a stronghold on the top of a hill ten miles outside the city. First, he could share the pressure on Pingxiang, and secondly, he could form a rivalry with Pingxiang City and support each other.

    One hundred thousand troops have been marching for days, and both the Xiliang army and the Xiqiang soldiers are exhausted. After hearing Ma Chao's arrangement, Beigong Jiyu had many complaints in his heart, but he dared not speak out. After accepting the order with resentment, he  Then he led 60,000 Hu troops and rushed to the head of the city ten miles outside the city to build a stronghold.

    When Cheng Gongying heard that the army was arriving, he quickly led his generals out of the city to meet them. Cheng Gongying came to the city gate and suddenly saw the Qiang soldiers retreating. He immediately frowned and asked Ma Chao.  Ma Chao explained the previous arrangements, and Cheng Gongying's face suddenly changed and he spoke quickly.

    "After all, the Qiang people are a foreign race, and they are very wary of Han people like us. If we hadn't always been on good terms with the Qiang people, and we encountered Wen Bufan raising his troops to attack, how could Beigong Jiyu have surrendered?  All the soldiers of the clan are here to help. General Ma should treat the Qiang people more kindly and get rid of their wariness, so that the Qiang people can work together with us and the Xiliang army to fight against the enemy.

    General Ma¡¯s actions today will definitely make the Qiang people complain a lot.  I also hope that General Ma will call him back to the city and occupy it. As for the camp outside the city, Cheng will lead 40,000 Xiliang soldiers to camp there!  "

    "Hey! The Qiang people are just barbarians, why should they be treated so seriously? What's more, all the Xiliang soldiers are my fellow Han brothers. If I follow the advice of the military advisor, wouldn't I become a person who likes foreigners and hates his own people?"

    "But!"

    Cheng Gongying wanted to persuade him again, but Ma Chao waved his hand and interrupted Cheng Gongying's words.He ordered in a suspicious tone.

    "Military advisor, don't say any more! Brothers have been traveling for days and are bumpy all the way. We are all exhausted. We need to enter the city first and make arrangements. You and I will discuss it later!"
