    Chapter 163 "The situation becomes tense"

    Seeing Pang Tong's action, Liu Jia immediately thought of a sentence: "Let go of the road and occupy both sides."  *When Ma Chao's army rushed into the encirclement of Cao Jun, weren't there as many enemies as there were enemies?

    Pang Tong said: "There are only two ways to go for this. One is to immediately order General Ma Chao to stop the pursuit. The other is to send a large army to follow immediately to prevent Wang Shuang and those 'stragglers' from cutting off General Ma Chao's retreat."

    Liu Jia quickly said: "That's it. How can we let General Ma Chao get our orders now? It may be difficult for our messengers and detective horses to break through the blocking line set by Wang Shuang."

    "If a single person cannot do it, we will send a large army there." Pang Tong said, "Let General Wei Yan and General Ma Dai leave immediately. Our large army will set off later."

    ? It is said that it is immediate, but in fact it takes several hours of preparation time.  As for the large army's movement, it took longer. It was not until two days after the 10,000 light infantry led by Wei Yan and Ma Dai set off that the large army led by Liu Jia set off.  With Zhao Yun as the vanguard and Huang Zhong as the rear, they advanced along the rear of Wei Yan's army.  However, the distance between the two armies was not shortened, but actually lengthened: because the speed of the light infantry was obviously faster than that of the large army, and Wei Yan and the others had an important and urgent mission: to notify Ma Chao's army to stop, and to  Wei Yan's army retreated slowly under the response.

    But Cao Cao was definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp. When Liu Jia's army finally gathered the troops and set off from Long County, Wang Shuang's troops also began to rush towards Wei Mi City according to the secret plan that Cao Cao had formulated before.  Wang Shuangdi's mission was to capture the city of Hemi with few defenders as soon as possible.  Cut off the retreat of Ma Chao's army and block Wei Yan's rescue.  If Liu Jia's army arrives, Wang Shuang will have to hold on for a while to wait for the arrival of the army led by Cao Cao.

    Wei Yan, who received the report of the horse exploration, naturally knew Wang Shuang's obvious strategic intention. While sending people to report to Liu Jia, he urged the soldiers to speed up their advance. He wanted to rush to the city before Wang Shuang's troops occupied the city of Yumi, and help Ma Chao leave Di Na.  A thousand soldiers guarded this city.  Everyone knew that as long as these ten thousand infantry entered the city.  It is impossible for Wang Shuang's 20,000 troops to capture the city of Wei Mi in a short period of time. It is estimated that even if he adds 20,000 more troops, it will be difficult to achieve success in the short period.  Now Wang Shuang's troops and Wei Yan's troops are about the same distance from Wei Mi City.  In the end, whoever reaches the foot of Yumi City first will depend on whose troops march faster.

    However, precisely because Wei Yan's speed increased, he got further and further away from Liu Jia's troops.

    Wang Shuang naturally did not dare to neglect. He walked in front of the team and personally supervised the battle to speed up the march of the troops. At the same time, he ordered the stragglers who had not yet completely gathered up to fight independently and harass Wei Yan's troops as much as possible.

    In this way, it would be somewhat difficult for Wei Yan's troops to continue to maintain the previous speed.

    No, the Wei Yan army marching on the road heard passionate curses from the left front of the team:

    "Yizhou soldiers from the southern barbarian land. Do you dare to fight with us?"

    "Your Ma Chao's troops are surrounded by us, you should surrender too!"

    "Go!"

    ¡­¡­

    There were not many of them, with more than a thousand at most, and sometimes hundreds of people dared to call for formation from a distance. Although these Cao soldiers did not dare to rush in, Wei Yan and the others did not dare to take it lightly, because although these guys did not dare to charge at themselves now,  of the main force, but do not drive them away.  It is not impossible for these guys to hang out behind or sneak attack the grain and grass troops, it can be said to be certain.

    Although Wei Yan and Ma Dai took turns to go into battle, they killed the clamoring Cao troops.  But these Cao soldiers seemed to be well prepared. When they saw Wei Yan coming in a menacing manner, they immediately ran away desperately, leaving the Yizhou soldiers to capture only a few soldiers to vent the bad breath in their chests.

    The speed of Wei Yan's army naturally began to slow down.

    ¡­¡­

    When Cao Cao stared at the map with interest and looked at the positions of Ma Chao's cavalry, Wei Yan's light infantry, and Liu Jia's nearly 200,000 troops, he smiled: "Haha. Liu Jia, who has never suffered a loss.  , now I will cut off a large piece of meat. As long as you dare to take a few steps forward, I will get a few big bites of meat to eat. "

    Jia Xu next to him also smiled and said: "Although Liu Jia and the others have seen that we are luring the enemy deeper, there is nothing he can do now unless they can fly."

    Cao Cao asked: "Would you like to take a risk and bring in Liu Jiadi's large army to deal with it together?"

    Jia Xu shook his head and said: "No, we don't have such strong strength. If too many people come in, our encirclement will not be able to surround them. Maybe they will rescue Ma Chao's 20,000 troops."

    Cao Cao had no choice but to suppress it.The grand goal in your heart.

    but.  Xun Yu, who was standing next to him, interjected: "Although we don't have the strength to destroy Liu Jia's large army, we still have a chance to include Wei Yan's troops and eat them."

    Cao Cao was overjoyed.  He quickly asked: "How to pack it?"

    Xun Yu pointed at the map and said: "Liu Jia's large army is now more than two and a half days away from Wei Yan's army. Although they have been harassed by our deliberately dispersed soldiers, their speed has slowed down, allowing Liu Jia to get closer, but  We still have a chance"

    On the second day after Cao Cao and the others re-arranged their battle arrangements, the harassment experienced by Wei Yan's army suddenly decreased, or even disappeared, and their progress returned to the speed before the start.  They slowly began to distance themselves from Liu Jia's troops behind them.

    However, the effect of Cao Jun's harassment was still very obvious, and Wei Yan's troops began to lag behind Wang Shuang's troops.  Wei Yan, who was lagging behind, had nothing to worry about, because he was sure that the thousand defenders could withstand Wang Shuang's troops in attacking the city in a short period of time. Attacking the city was not a field battle. You couldn't start killing with just a shout. You had to prepare first.  Siege machinery.  Even if Wei Mi City was surrounded by Wang Shuang's troops who arrived first, Wei Yan was confident that he and Ma Dai could break through Wang Shuang's obstruction and open a hole to allow 10,000 troops to rush into the city.  The only doubt in my mind is why Cao Jun gave up harassing him?

    Just when Wei Yan and Wang Shuang were competing to see who could reach the foot of Yumi City first, Ma Chao finally received Liu Jiafa's countless orders: stop advancing and return to Yumi City to wait for the arrival of the army.

    After receiving this order, Ma Chao looked angry. If he hadn't thought that Liu Jia had been victorious in every battle since his debut, Ma Chao would have ignored this confusing order.

    Ma Chao, who was reining in the white horse, glanced at the blurry black shadow at the end of his eyes and felt very unwilling.  The shadow is Yongxian City, which is not guarded by many Cao troops.  According to Tan Ma's report, Yongxian City is now almost an empty city. As long as the more than 10,000 cavalry charge again, this city will belong to him just like Wei Mi City.

    "How can Cao's army, which has lost its armor and armor, still be able to counterattack? Now that Chang'an is in chaos, it can't be so fast, right? Stabilizing the morale of hundreds of thousands of troops is not a simple matter, and it is definitely not an easy task.  Something that can be done in a short period of time. Should you move forward or follow orders?" Ma Chao hesitated.
