474 Capture Chang'an 2

Li You said: "Mr. Yuanhao, why don't you be ambitious to others? What opponents in our army have never met? Will Ma Chao's soldiers be stronger than Xianbei and Xiongnu Iron Cavalry?"

After hearing this, Zhao Yunlong said, "No regrets, you can't underestimate the opponents in the world. I heard from my elder brother about the situation in Xiliang. Xiliang is not only very brave, but his subordinates are even more difficult to deal with. This person is braver than Ma Chao, but he is calm when fighting, not easy to be excited, and even more difficult to deal with. There are also several of Ma Chao's brothers, Ma Dai, Ma Tie, and Ma Xiu, who are all excellent cavalry generals and are very knowledgeable about cavalry battle formations."

After hearing this, Li You said, "General Zilong, don't worry, I'm just talking. I have been following my lord for many years and have been taught by my lord. How dare I be careless? As for our army's attack on the city of Chang'an? There will be no problem. The explosives in our army's hands are not vegetarians."

Tian Feng thought for a while and said, "Zilong, it is not a big problem for our army to only capture Chang'an City, but it is indeed a bit difficult to destroy as many soldiers as possible in Ma Chao's soldiers. It is better for our army to dispatch a partial army to the north and raid Anding, so as to prepare for our army's future attack on Shicheng, Jincheng, Tianshui and other places. Besides, as long as our army quickly captures Anding City, the retreat of Ma Chao's army will be cut off. Then there will be pursuers behind him and large troops blocked him in front of him. There will probably not be too many soldiers who can escape back to Wuwei."

After hearing this, Zhao Yun immediately said, "Li You, General Zhang Yan and the other generals, I will give you five thousand violent bears and fifteen thousand flying bears. I will advance towards Anding immediately and raid Anding City with the fastest speed. Only success is allowed, not failure is allowed."

Li You and Zhang Yan replied loudly, "God of the General."

Tian Feng instructed again: "Two generals, remember when you encounter Ma Chao time, don't fight alone, play the role of our army's snipers, and play the role of team combat."

Li You and Zhang Yan said, "Don't worry, Mr. Yuan Hao, we understand." After that, the two turned around and ordered their troops.

After Li You and Zhang Yan left, Tian Feng continued: "Zilong, Fengyi City is very close to Chang'an. It is estimated that Ma Chao is now strengthening the defense and just waiting for our army to attack the city. We might as well rest for two days and let Li You and Zhang Yan eat An Ding first. Then our army does not have to fight Ma Chao to raid Chang'an City at night, so that Ma Chao can be caught off guard. However, the walls of Chang'an are tall and thick, so we must put more explosives in use."

Zhao Yun said: "Don't worry, Mr. Yuanhao, just follow his words."

Then Zhao Yun sent a large number of scouts to conduct detailed reconnaissance around Chang'an City, killing the detectives sent by Ma Chao as much as possible, so that Ma Chao in Chang'an City could not receive any information. The information that could be received was deliberately released by Zhao Yun's scouts.

Ma Chao in Chang'an City was also depressed. Zhao Yun's army had arrived in Fengyi City for several days, but there was no movement. Even a tentative attack had gone for a long time, which made Ma Chao not sure what Zhao Yun meant? What did he want to do? Although he had also studied Pang De and Ma Dai, there was no result and he could not figure out the reason. He had to strengthen his defense and did not dare to easily lead troops out of the city to fight Zhao Yun's army. He was still a little afraid of Zhao Yun's army. After all, the reputation of the Big Bear Army was too famous.

Seeing that Ma Chao would not go out of the city to fight, Zhao Yun immediately sent troops to receive the small towns such as Gaoling, Jingyang, and Chiyang around Chang'an City, and only Chang'an City did not take action.

Ma Chao and others in the city saw that Zhao Yun's army had no intention of attacking Chang'an, but they just accepted the small city, and they felt very uncomfortable. After all, it was hard to whistle and could not be defended for a long time with a Chang'an city. In their hearts, they wanted to send troops to attack the small city that Zhao Yun received, but that felt like they were trapped in Zhao Yun and worried about being ambushed.

Pang De said: "Young Master, it is not a solution for our army to defend Chang'an City. I will still let me lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to tentatively attack to see what conspiracies Zhao Yun has so that our army can defend the next step. Even if it fails, our army will only lose 5,000 soldiers and horses, which will not affect our army's strength."

As soon as Pang De led 5,000 troops out of Chang'an City, Zhao Yun received a report from the scouts. Zhao Yun immediately studied the combat plan of ambushing Pang De with Tian Feng. They wanted to keep 5,000 troops, but the key was to capture Pang De alive. Such a general would allow him to escape again.

Pang De led 5,000 troops across the Wei River. He was worried that he would be blocked by Zhao Yun's army when crossing the river. It would be smooth and smooth. What kind of enemy troops would be there? Pang De's army had just walked more than ten miles and heard the noise of gongs and drums. The army was ambushed. The five thousand troops were shot and killed by crossbow archers ambushed in the woods by Zhao Yun.

When Pang De knew that he had put the egg on, he immediately ordered his soldiers to retreat quickly, but it was too late. Zhao Yun would let them go, and his retreat was cut off by Zhao Yun's army. In just a moment, Zhao Yun's army was surrounded by Zhao Yun's army. More than a thousand soldiers and horses were shot and killed, and now there were only about four thousand soldiers and horses following him.

Zhao Yun from afar said loudly: "General Pang De, dismount and surrender, otherwise you and thousands of soldiers and horses would be shot into hornet's nests? You wouldn't let so many of your personal soldiers die with you! There are wives, children and young people in their family waiting for them to go home."

Pang De looked up and found that Zhao Yun's army was several times higher than him, and the crossbow arrows in his hand were aimed at his troops. As long as Zhao Yun gave the order, he would really be dead without a burial place. He would not be afraid of death, but his soldiers would also die with him. What should the wife, children and young people in their family do?

Seeing the expectation in the eyes of his soldiers, Pang De had to shout: "General Zhao Yun, you can give up your resistance and surrender, but I have a condition. If you promise me, you will get off the horse and surrender, otherwise I will fight to death."

Zhao Yun said: "What conditions do General Pang De have? Just tell me if I can agree?"

Pang De said: "If I want me to surrender, General Zhao must let my soldiers go home to reunite with his family, and I will just surrender and not surrender."

After hearing this, Zhao Yun thought, as long as you get off the horse and surrender, I will leave the surrender to my elder brother to do it. I can take care of so much, and then laughed and said, "General Pang De, as long as you get off the horse and surrender, I will immediately send food to your soldiers and let them go home immediately. Of course, if you are willing to join our army and meet the soldiers' requirements, I cannot drive them away."

After hearing this, Pang De smiled bitterly and ordered helplessly to put down his weapons for his soldiers. He also threw down his weapons and waited for Zhao Yun's army to accept them.

Of course, Zhao Yun would not make a mistake and immediately asked his subordinates to distribute ten days of food and super-large silver coins to Pang De's soldiers. He walked to Pang De's side, picked up the weapons, handed them to Pang De's hands, and took Pang De's hand back to the camp.

After returning to Fengyi City, Zhao Yun put a feast for Pang De. Generals such as Tian Feng, Lu Mine, and Lu Xiang were also accompanied. Everyone was persuading Pang De in the banquet, hoping to subdue him. But Pang De didn't say a word, just lowered his head to drink and ignored him. This made Zhao Yun and the others feel helpless, and it also verified that Pang De was not easy to subdue. In the end, there was no way to send someone to send Pang De back to Jinyang and let Lu Ning worry. He would still focus his energy on the attacking battle in Chang'an City.

In Chang'an City, Ma Chao also received a report of the capture of Pang De's army. He was very atmospheric inside, but he also knew that as long as his army left the city, he would be ambushed by Zhao Yun's army. Zhao Yun was luring himself. If he led his troops out of the city, he would not get any advantage. He had to give up and devote all his energy to defending the city, and let his soldiers strengthen patrol and closely monitor Zhao Yun's army's every move.

Zhao Yun did not give Ma Chao more time to improve the defensive system. The next night, Zhao Yun led the army to secretly dispatch. The pioneer scouts completely wiped out all the detectives sent by Ma Chao.

Zhao Yun's 60,000 troops arrived at Chang'an City at the fourth update. Zhao Yun immediately sent three groups of engineers to sneak under the city walls in the east, south and north directions of Chang'an City, placed the explosives, connected the firing line, and slowly led the firing line to hundreds of meters away, waiting for Zhao Yun's order.

At this time, the city was very quiet, and it was the time when people were sleeping the most. And just when people were in a quiet night, when people couldn't see their fingers, the nightmare of Ma Chao and his army came, and they would be massacred by the Big Bear Army. At this time, Ma Chao and his soldiers were still in their dreams, and they knew that the bad luck would come.

After receiving Zhao Yun's order, the engineer immediately ignited the fire-driving sutra. In the darkness, the sparkling fire-driving sutra made a weak sound and quickly ran under the Chang'an city wall. If he didn't know this thing, he would be heading into the city like a ghost fire, making people feel creepy.

When the flashing fire line ran under the Chang'an city wall, the soldiers patrolling the city wall were frightened and screamed. They didn't know what it was, but they thought it was a ghost fire. Especially the faint sound of squeaking death, it scared the soldiers guarding the city wall and their legs were trembling constantly.

With the rumbling sound, it was like the thunder god getting angry. Thunder broke out in Chang'an City. The deafening loud noise scared everyone in the sleeping dreams. Everyone was panicked and didn't know what happened. Why did the thunder god show their power?

The extremely strong Chang'an City Wall also collapsed a long section with the loud noise. The soldiers guarding the city standing on the city wall were affected. Some soldiers were buried, and the soldiers guarding the city who were not buried were also frightened and frightened. They were all frightened by the things in front of them, stunned, and stood motionless on the city wall, as if they suddenly became stupid.

With the collapse of the Chang'an city wall, Zhao Yun led 20,000 troops into the city from the north gate, Lu Mine led 10,000 troops into the city from the east gate, and Lu Xiang led 10,000 troops into the city from the south gate. When the three armies entered the city, the soldiers guarding the city who were standing on the city wall were not clear about it, and they didn't know what happened. Many soldiers were still standing when they were killed, and they didn't even know how to die. It was a bit unfair to die. It was probably that the King of Hell would accept some more stupid ghosts.

Ma Chao and Ma Dai were also awakened by the huge thunder sound. They all got up immediately and were about to go out to ask what was going on? As soon as Ma Chao walked out of the bedroom, he met his personal soldiers running over in a panic and ran into Ma Chao, almost knocking Ma Chao over.

Ma Chao said angrily: "What happened? What kind of discipline is that you are so panicked."

The personal soldiers said in a terrified state: "Young master, Zhao Yun's army is coming into the city!"

After hearing this, Ma Chao cursed loudly: "You are talking nonsense. How could Zhao Yun's army come into the city in Fengyi City? Could it be that he fell from the sky?"

At this time, Ma Dai also arrived and immediately said, "Brother, Zhao Yun's army has really entered the city from the east, south and north directions. The soldiers under our command are in chaos. Many of the soldiers have not yet got up. Even the fast-moving soldiers have found weapons and cannot find armor, and they can't find weapons when they find war horses and cannot find weapons. They are all running for their lives now."

Ma Chao was shocked after hearing this, and after a moment, he said, "What's going on? Why would Zhao Yun come into the city without any sound? Could it be that the Big Bear Army really fly?"

Ma Dai said: "Brother, nothing is useful now. It's better to organize the soldiers to escape as soon as possible. If you hesitate, you will probably not even have a chance to escape."

Of course, Ma Chao knew that he was sneaked into the city by the enemy and found out that he could not fight this battle. The soldiers in his sleep had no time to prepare, and there were many who had not even got up. How could they meet the enemy? Even when they got up, the soldiers were thrown away and had nothing in their hands. Can they face the enemy with empty hands?

Ma Chao had no choice but to lead the organized soldiers to flee to the west gate. He did not dare to resist anymore, knowing that resistance would mean losing more soldiers. After leaving the city, Ma Chao, Ma Dai and his 30,000 or 40,000 troops who escaped from the thirty or forty thousand troops did not dare to stay, like a stray dog ​​fleeing westward.

Of course, Zhao Yun in the city was also leading the army to chase Ma Chao's remnants and defeated generals, but the city was full of enemy soldiers kneeling down and surrendering, blocking the speed of the army's advance. Although some scattered soldiers and roaming along the way, the army led by Ma Chao and Ma Dai still did not catch up.

Just as Ma Chao and Ma Dai brothers led the defeated army to escape, deafening gongs and drums sounded from the jungle of the Second Company, and countless crossbow archers rushed out from the woods, and shot and killed the defeated army of Ma Chao and Ma Dai on the road with their crossbows.

The crossbow arrows ran towards him like raindrops. Some of the soldiers under Ma Chao's men had not even found their armor. Even if they were found, they were too busy to wear them. Now they could not resist such a brutal rain of arrows. Only the soldiers under Ma Chao's men cried and cried, and the soldiers were running around. In this case, even the emperor would not have any effect. After all, everyone knows that if they want to save their lives, they must escape, otherwise the waiting will be death.
