Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 568 What Shu thieves? That’s the King of the Han Dynasty

Originally, Sun Li hadn't played against Ma Su for three years, so he still hadn't gotten over it. As a result, when his subordinates reminded him, Sun Li suddenly remembered the risks of joining the party.

"I warned you before that you need to warn the Shangdang to be on high alert. Have you implemented it?"

With Sun Li looking as fearful of Shu as a tiger, several new generals who joined him looked a little helpless. They could only try their best to explain to Sun Li that they had followed his orders 100%.

"There are still 2,000 defenders in Shangdang, and there are also 3,000 elite soldiers in Huguan next door. Moreover, there are powerful tribes in the city to cooperate, so it can be said to be impregnable."

"And we have emphasized before that there may be a surprise attack by the Shu army, so we have asked them to be on high alert for twelve hours. Any enemies that seem to be out of place must be on high alert when they approach."

"So even if part of the Shu army goes around, it's impossible to achieve anything!"

After hearing the detailed explanations from the generals, Sun Li breathed a sigh of relief. But he was still very nervous. After all, Ma Su had won every battle since his debut!

At least so far, no one has been able to break the myth of his invincibility.

Sun Li was really afraid of being beaten, so he wanted to do everything for fear of making any omissions.

"Oh... no, I still feel uneasy. I have to go to the party and see for myself!" The more Sun Li thought about it, the more he felt guilty. After repeatedly confirming that there were no big problems on the front line, Sun Li stood up and said.

If the front was defeated, these troops under his command could still retreat to Huguan. Although the losses would be heavy, the entire army would not be annihilated. But if Shangdang is gone, they may all become prisoners of the Shu army.

Therefore, although the front line is important, in comparison, joining the party is still more important.

"You, sit here on my behalf. No matter what the Shu people do, you must hold on! I will personally return to Changzi County to prevent the rear from being attacked." Sun Li pondered for a while, then pointed at one of his old generals and ordered .

This old general had come back alive from Guanzhong together, and he had seen Ma Su's fighting power that was like a killing god. So by arranging an old subordinate to take charge here, Sun Li felt a little more at ease.

After assigning his old subordinates to take charge of all important affairs in Gu Yuan, Sun Li personally led more than a hundred people and ran straight to the rear along the avenue. While retreating, he had to pray that nothing would happen to his superiors before he went back.

Sun Li's prayer may have paid off, because at the same time, Ma Di and his vanguard camp had gotten lost in the mountains and forests. After wandering around for a long time, we finally successfully entered the Shangdang Basin under the guidance of a woodcutter.

Ma Di, who got lost, was obviously not as fast as Sun Li, who took the main road to return. If nothing unexpected happened, Sun Li would have returned to the headquarters first, and then personally commanded the Wei army to surprise Ma Di by the top of the city.

Late that night, in Changzi County, Shangdang County Office,

"It's midnight, and we still have to patrol here. It's really torturous!" An officer from a wealthy family held a torch and cursed while inspecting the soldiers' posts at the top of the city.

"How long will this damn war last? Do they have to die in the capital of Guizhou before they are willing to stop?"

"We are not qualified to say anything about this. It's all the orders from above. What else can we do except follow orders." The fellow villager next to him shrugged and said helplessly.

"You two, you are not patrolling seriously, what are you whispering to each other!" At this time, a senior officer suddenly appeared like a ghost, looked at the two of them and scolded them.

"Hey... Patriarch!" The two tribesmen were shocked, and after seeing clearly, they quickly saluted.

"How many times have I told you, when on patrol, you must show your duty!"

"Uh... Captain Zhang!"

This time, the officer's expression softened after the correct address was given, and then he patted the two of them on the shoulders.

"Okay, you two, stop complaining. There is nothing we can do about this war. But as long as we patrol and prepare carefully, it is possible to end the war early."

"oh……"

"No, I'm serious." The captain waved his hand and said to the two of them.

"General Sun told us before he left that this time the Shu bandits' general Ma Di is likely to bypass the front line and come to Zhangzi County for a sneak attack. And he is the core of the Western Shu army. Without him, the Shu bandits' tribe will be abolished. Lost half of it!”

"So you all patrol carefully. If there is anything wrong, take action immediately. Kill first and then interrogate! As long as the leader of the thief, Ma Di, is killed, our army of Wei Dynasty will be able to regain the lost territory with overwhelming force."

"Even if there is a war by then, it won't be in Bingzhou, and we can all go home!"

They were powerful local soldiers who were recruited by the imperial court to defend the city. If the war hadn't spread to their hometowns, it would be impossible for these rural soldiers to be willing to accept such a call.

Even if I accept it now, I still feel very resentful. Now that they heard that there was a chance to end the war early, everyone regained their spirits.

But at this moment, one of the officers suddenly asked,

"By the way, Lieutenant Colonel, do you still remember how General Sun described the Shu army's surprise attack?"

"Ah? He comes and goes like the wind, moves quickly, is fierce and murderous... Why do you ask this?"

"Look over there, it seems like the Shu thieves are coming!" As he said this, the officer pointed his hand and saw a group of figures holding torches from the north running towards here at an extremely fast speed!

"Fuck! I said Shu thieves, and they are coming! Be alert! Send the archers up!" The lieutenant was not calm at all and shouted hurriedly.

Ma Su, who was rumored to have killed many people before, is really here now!

Because of the early warning, a large number of nobles have moved to the side of the city wall in advance. After hearing the warning, all the soldiers rushed to the top of the city wall as soon as possible.

At the same time, outside the city of Changzi County, Sun Li led a hundred guards to run back without sleep. When he saw the flag of the Wei army flying on the top of the city wall of Changzi County from a distance, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Shangdang is still safe, thank goodness!"

Before Sun Li finished his breath, he saw a large number of soldiers and horses suddenly pouring out of the city wall.

He felt very satisfied with this. It seemed that he was overthinking. The guards of Shangdang were still very vigilant. If he continued to maintain this spirit, Ma Su would definitely be shot into a hedgehog when he came!

However, before Sun Li finished his sigh, he saw the defenders on the top of the city raised their bows and arrows and aimed at him!

"Wait! I seem to have forgotten something!"

At this time, Sun Li suddenly remembered that he had not informed Shangdang in advance. And it was late at night, which meant that the defenders in the city didn't know he was back!

"Wait! Don't shoot! I'm Sun..."

"The Shu thieves are shouting! Shoot your arrows quickly!!"

Poor Sun Li hadn't finished his words yet, and the nervous nobles had already shot their arrows. In just a moment, countless arrows poured down and quickly flooded towards Sun Li!

At the last moment of being drowned by the rain of arrows, Sun Li only had time to shout out his last words.

"Fuck!"

The rain of arrows in Changzi County lasted for a long time, and the defenders stopped only after confirming that all the comers were shot dead.

Then, when they went out of the city to confirm the results of the battle at dawn, the whole scene was terribly silent.

"Captain..."

"Don't call me Captain, I'm your family head, not the captain of Wei."

"Family head, we seem to have killed the wrong person."

"I'm not blind! I can see!" The head of the wealthy family almost bit his teeth to pieces.

You are the dignified General Zhenxi. Why don't you stay at the front line to command troops and come back alone late at night? !

"Then how should we deal with the Shu thieves next..."

"What Shu thieves! Where are the Shu thieves? They are our Han Dynasty's royal division! Go and prepare quickly. We Shangdang Han people need to welcome the royal division!"
