Chapter 52 Stealing chickens and eating rice

The horse at the entrance of the Yan army was dragged to the ground, and the soldiers on the watchtower were also shot to death. The remaining Yan army dropped their weapons and ran away.

Sima's army rushed into Yan camp, and 20,000 troops advanced in unison, surging like a tide. The Wei army each held torches and threw them out and landed on the tents of Yan camp.

The camp tent was lit in an instant, and the entire Yan camp was trapped in the sea of ​​fire.

The scattered Yan army fled to death, and Sima Shi ordered that no living entries be left and that all sieges would be surrounded and killed.

The Wei army archers each held long bows, wrapped arrows wrapped in linen cloth, ignited with torches, and the feathered arrows turned into meteors in the night sky, shooting on the camp tent, and the flames spread instantly.

Nearly a thousand tents of all sizes caught fire at the same time.

Sima Shi looked at him with a sneer. He saw only one or two people running out of each camp, and he couldn't help but be shocked and suspicious: "It's all on fire, why are there only one or two people coming out? Could it be that Chengdu is drunk?"

Immediately stepped forward, rushed into the nearby tent, lifted up the curtain, and saw that there was no one in the tent, only six or seven scarecrow branches of the same height were tied there, or hung a piece of leather armor, and his face changed color: "No, I'm trapped!"

The candlelight was lit in the tent, reflecting the scarecrow's shadow on the cloth tent. From the outside, it looked like seven or eight people standing there drinking. In fact, just two soldiers were squatting inside, shouting and singing double acts, creating a trick of seven or eight people drinking in the tent.

Sima Shi knew that he had been trapped, and there were only more than a thousand soldiers in the Yan army camp who were confused. He walked out of the camp and shouted anxiously: "If you withdraw your troops, you should not stay here for a long time."

As soon as he spoke, he heard a sound of cannons and gongs and drums. The Yan army came from all directions. Yang Zuo, Bei Yan and Lunzhi each led an army, and countless feather arrows shot from the east, south and west.

Sima Shi was shocked. Seeing the feather arrows falling all over the sky, he hurriedly raised his shield to block them. Seven or eight close-knit soldiers were desperately protecting his vitality and shouted in unison: "Pioneer, go from the north quickly, we are ambushing!"

Yang Zuo rode his horse and took up his sword, and killed more than a dozen Wei troops in one breath. Bei Yan marched together. The Wei army was blocked in the Yan camp and could not advance or retreat. He could only escape from the north. He didn't know how many people the Yan army had hidden here. He was shocked and fled to the north.

Sima was so angry that he slapped his thighs, gritted his teeth, and rode his horse to escape north.

When the Wei army saw that the vanguards had left, they hurriedly followed.

When Yang Zuo saw Sima Shi's intention to escape, he immediately led his army to rush forward. The two Yan and Wei armies fought together. He swung a big sword and slashed Sima Shi's back, with a fierce castration.

Sima Shi heard the sound of wind behind him, and he tweaked his spear back without looking back. With a loud "clang" sound, Yang Zuo felt the tiger's mouth shake violently, and couldn't help but be surprised and thought to himself: "This guy is amazing too."

Sima Shi turned his horse's head and stabbed Yang Zuo with a long spear. The latter resisted desperately. Bei Yan also came from behind and took Sima Shi directly. The battle situation suddenly turned into two-for-one.

The three of them fought like a lantern. Yang Zuo and Bei Yan were not opponents of Sima Shi, but the Yan army had the upper hand and the Wei army was dispersed, and their morale was extremely strong. Sima Shi was frightened and had the idea of ​​escaping. The battle was so hard that he was unable to do so.

The three of them fought for less than fifty rounds, and it was only a turn that two horses could pass by one. Three people and three cavalry rushed left and right in the chaos, and became more and more courageous as they fell.

Gongsun Xiu deliberately surrounded the triangle of southeast and west, leaving only the north to give Sima Shi the opportunity to escape. The military strategy says that there are ten surrounds, and the forces of both sides are equal, so they cannot be surrounded. Surrounding death means fighting to the death, leaving a glimmer of life for him to escape, and then he can follow behind and pursue, which is a famous saying that can be scattered but not blocked.

The Wei army was defeated and fled in all directions, and the formation was already in chaos. In a hurry, it could not form an effective formation to resist and defend, and they all looked north.

Seeing that more and more Yan troops were surrounding him, Sima Shi sighed in his heart: "My life will be over this time."

Yang Zuo slashed from behind with a knife. Sima Shi was exhausted from placing Bei Yan on the front and could not free his hands to block this fatal blow.

Suddenly, a man rode his horse to usher in. He shot away the big knife that Yang Zuo fell, and only spit out a word, shouting: "Go."

Sima Shi didn't even want to look back at this time. He shook off the spear and stabbed Bei Yan in the left arm with one shot. He took advantage of the situation and grabbed the horse's belly and ran to the north to escape.

Yang Zuo looked at the person who rescued Sima Shi and saw that under the faint moonlight, this person was about forty years old and had a very mediocre appearance, which was a look that he could forget at a glance.

He stayed for a second, came to his senses, and shouted: "I'll take you down first!"

Although Bei Yan was shot, his injury was not serious. Seeing that Yang Zuo fought with the man without any decision, he immediately pulled out the long sword on his waist, rolled up on the ground, and slashed the man's mount at the back.

The horse neighed and jumped up suddenly. The man on the horse's back was raised high and fell to the ground.

Just as she was about to get up, Yang Zuo pressed his throat with a gun, and the nine schools close to him also surrounded him. Yang Zuo sneered: "You have a lot of courage, hey, speak."

The man closed his eyes and refused to answer, waiting to die.

Yang Zuo shouted: "This man looks like a mute."

The man opened his eyes, stared at him, and said in a speechless manner: "You...you...you...really despicable, Sima Gong--No, won't let you go."

Bei Yan looked at him for a long time before he said it vaguely, and joked: "It's not a mute, he's a stutter."

Yang Zuo nodded and said, "Tie this stutter and go back and interrogate again."

The school knife hand immediately stepped forward, tied the man up and placed it on the horse's back.

Lunzhi rushed forward and smiled, "Continue chasing, they can't escape."

The three of them led their troops and killed them all the way. The brave soldiers of the Wei army passed by were killed. The cowardly soldiers begged to surrender. They chased them for more than a hundred miles. Shimingjin withdrew their troops and returned to Shoushan. They knew that the vanguard of Sima's army had escaped the Liaoshui River, and it would be meaningless to chase them again.

After counting, nearly 5,000 enemies were killed, and about 6,000 prisoners were captured. This battle was a complete victory.

Gongsun Xiu inspected the situation in Yan Camp and ordered the soldiers to put out the fire, quipped: "Look, if we were drunk today, we would have been burned to death by a fire. Sima Shi has always been vicious and tried to loosen our army under the guise of working hard on the army. Now he has compensated his wife and soldiers. He will not say that he will give wine, meat and money, but in the end we will hammer him."

All the generals laughed.

Jia Fan smiled and said, "He might be pounding his chest and stamping his feet at this moment."

Yang Zuo said: "That's natural."

His eyes turned to Gongsun Xiu again, frowned and said, "What should be done with the surrendered soldiers?"

He sneered and laughed: "Support it first, you can't kill it. When Wei State really grants the title of King Yan, Sima Yi evacuated Liaodong, he will return thousands of surrendered soldiers to him."

Yang Zuo smiled and said, "Among the prisoners, there is a guy who is stuttering and stuttering, and if Mo Jiang and Bei Yan were not with him, he would probably not have captured this person alive."

"Speaking stutter?"

Gongsun Xiu's heart couldn't help but jumped suddenly and said with a smile: "Bring it up to see me."
