This battle.
Kill until noon.
Ma Shumou could no longer resist.
Han Qinhu sneered and immediately gave the order to withdraw his troops and returned to the camp.
Wu Yun summoned Han Qinhu to withdraw his troops, but did not pursue him, so he returned to Qilin Pass to guard, not to mention it for now.
Let’s talk about the Sui army’s camp.
Han Qinhu had an angry look on his face and sat firmly in the central military tent.
He slapped the table with a heavy palm and shouted loudly: "Come here, bring Uncle Ma to me!"
The words have not yet finished.
Several soldiers outside the tent agreed and immediately brought the already tied up Ma Shumou in and pinned him to the ground.
"Marshal, please spare my life!"
Ma Shumou's face turned pale. He knew that he had nothing to say so he could only beg for mercy.
Han Qinhu sneered and said: "Ma Shumou, Ma Shumou! Fortunately, you are the vanguard of the three armies, why don't you hear the military orders like a mountain? The day before yesterday, you were defeated by Sima Chao at Qilin Pass. I, Commander Nianqin The first time, I let him go gently. Now he has lost his army and harmed the country, and he has also issued a military order. It is impossible to escape the military law! You and I will tie him up and chop him down!"
This shout can be described as decisive.
Ma Shumou shouted hoarsely: "Please, Marshal, have mercy on me! Please Marshal, please have mercy on me!"
Han Qinhu suddenly waved his hand and shouted: "What are you waiting for? I'll kill you as soon as possible!"
Seeing the Marshal in such a state.
The generals in the tent dared to plead for mercy, but they all watched helplessly as a few soldiers dragged Ma Shumou away and took him outside under the commander's flag.
One of them held down Ma Shumou's neck, and the other pulled out the sword from his waist and was about to swing it down, slashing it down.
"Wait!"
However.
Right now.
The sound of a broken drink was like a thunderbolt exploding from the blue sky.
Several soldiers trembled, raised their heads suddenly, and saw a group of soldiers and horses galloping from outside the camp gate.
When Ma Shumou heard the sound, he was like a drowning man seeing a log not far away. He quickly raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound.
But when I saw a troop of soldiers and horses approaching the camp gate quickly.
The leader of this army is very majestic, how can he look like that?
Exactly——
Wearing a phoenix-winged sun helmet,
Wearing chained gold armor,
Wearing a red brocade robe,
Wearing black-soled black combat boots,
Sit down on the yellow flower horse thousands of miles away,
Holding a gold-plated phoenix wing,
He has a golden face and a slight beard, and looks like a god.
If it's not the Tianbao invincible general Yuwen Chengdu, who is it?
"General Yuwen, come and save me! The young general will repay me like a dog and a horse!"
As soon as I saw Yuwen Chengdu leading the grain transport team, he arrived.
Ma Shumou seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and shouted loudly.
Yuwen Chengdu nodded slightly, rode up to Ma Shumou, jumped down, and asked, "How did General Ma end up like this?"
Ma Shumou sighed and told Yuwen Chengdu exactly how he defeated Wu Yunzhao.
Yuwen Chengdu frowned and said: "General Ma, since you have issued a military order, there is nothing I can do if Marshal Han insists on killing you... However, now that you are asking for help, I cannot sit idly by and ignore... Later, I will go to the tent to plead for mercy!"
"General Lao is here! General Lao is here!"
Uncle Ma thanked him profusely, his eyes full of hope.
Yuwen Chengdu nodded, immediately turned around, held his head high and walked straight into the Chinese army tent.
Then.
He cupped his fists with both hands and saluted Han Qinhu: "Marshal Qi, the last general Yuwen Chengdu has been ordered to escort the grain and grass here. I am here today to deliver the order!"
"Hahahaha! You've come a long way from Chengdu, sit down and rest!"
Han Qinhu laughed loudly, waved his hands and said.
Yuwen Chengdu bowed again, and then sat down next to Wang Ke.
Had a cup of tea.
Yuwen Chengdu cleared his throat and asked about the current battle situation.
Han Qinhu sighed and said to Yuwen Chengdu: "That Wu Yunzhao is very powerful. I have fought with him several times and killed countless generals and soldiers. Now I am trapped here, unable to advance or retreat, and I am very anxious."
Yuwen Chengdu nodded and said: "I also know Wu Yunzhao's ability... When we conquered Bei Liao, we were considered brothers of Pao Ze... If the marshal does not give up, wait for the young general to go out tomorrow to capture the rebel, and then we will fight with the generals." Revenge, and secondly, take it out on the marshal!”
"Hahahaha! I have heard that General Yuwen is invincible. If he goes to battle tomorrow, Wu Yunzhao will naturally be defeated... However, this Qilin Pass is dangerous, so general, please be careful."
After hearing what Yuwen Chengdu said, Han Qinhu smiled. Although he praised him, he was a little anxious in his heart.
"Marshal, don't worry! The young general will naturally know! However, the young general has one more thing to ask for, please grant the marshal's permission!"
Yuwen Chengdu nodded, cupped his fists and raised his hands, and said to Han Qinhu.
Han Qinhu said: "But it doesn't matter!"
Yuwen Chengdu said: "When the young general entered the camp just now, he saw the pioneer Ma Shumou tied up outside and was about to interrogate and behead him. I wonder what crime this man has committed?"
"This dog-head! As a vanguard, he has been defeated in many battles. In today's battle, he lost many soldiers and horses. Moreover, he had issued a military order before. Now according to military law, he should be executed!"
Han Qinhu snorted coldly and replied to Yuwen Chengdu.
Yuwen Chengdu said: "Marshal, if you kill the general before breaking through Nanyang, it will be detrimental to the army. Moreover, this Ma Shumou was appointed by Your Majesty and was promoted not long ago. If you kill this person now, I am afraid that he will be killed by Your Majesty." It doesn't look good... Why don't we temporarily forgive the crime of being a vanguard, and when Nanyang is defeated, we can send him to the court together with the rebels to wait for the decision."
Upon hearing this.
Han Qinhu's eyes flickered slightly.
Wang Ke on the side sighed and thought to himself: "Oh! This Uncle Ma can't be killed today."
turn out to be.
This is a plan to force Uncle Ma to be killed.
It was the cooperation between Han Qinhu and Wang Ke.
Some days ago.
Wang Ke used Sima Chao to defeat Ma Shumou, and then pretended to plead for mercy and put Ma Shumou on a high pedestal.
at last.
Wu Yun summoned troops and horses to arrive.
Ma Shumou will definitely take the lead in fighting him.
And with Ma Shumou's martial arts, a hundred of him probably wouldn't be able to defeat Wu Yunzhao.
so.
It was much more logical to kill Ma Shumou at this time.
However, who could have expected that Yuwen Chengdu would suddenly arrive and plead for Uncle Ma's favor.
This Yuwen Chengdu is Yang Guang's confidant, and behind him stands the Yuwen clan.
How could a general like Han Qinhu, with his exquisite skills, easily offend such a powerful official?
then.
He pondered for a moment, then he could only wave his hands and said, "Oh! Since General Yuwen said so, I will spare that dog's life!"
Subsequently.
He ordered his soldiers to take Ma Shumou back.
This was a narrow escape.
Ma Shumou was so frightened that his whole body trembled.
After he came to the tent, he just kowtowed and thanked him.
Han Qinhu said coldly: "For the sake of General Yuwen, I will spare you from the death penalty, but you will inevitably be punished with a life sentence. I will send you to the Military and Political Department to beat you with forty military sticks and take you to the rear camp to take care of the horses!"
"Yes, yes! Thank you Marshal! Thank you General Yuwen!"
Uncle Ma kept kowtowing and kept saying thanks.
"That's all! Get down!"
Han Qinhu snorted coldly and said.
after.
The soldiers on the left and right agreed.
Immediately, Ma Shumou's hands were untied.
Then, a few soldiers directly escorted him to the Military and Political Department, let alone mentioning it for now.
Let’s talk about the next day.
Yuwen Chengdu led the three armies to Qilin Pass and set up camp three miles away from the city.
He raised the banner of "General Yuwen of Tianbao of the Great Sui Dynasty".
Flags flutter in the wind.
The soldiers at the top of the city had seen it a long time ago and immediately reported it to Wu Yunzhao.
