Three Kingdoms: The identity of the financial master behind the scenes was exposed by Cao Cao

Cheng Gongying's roar finally woke up Ma Dai.

If we retreat to the mountains, we can survive for a few days.

If they don't retreat, they will be killed by the Wei army's Modao army.

You have to die sooner or later. It's better to die later than to die early, right?

"Retreat, the entire army retreats to the mountain camp~~"

Ma Dai shouted, turned around and fled up the mountain. finally.

After half of his soldiers were killed or injured, Ma Dai and his remaining soldiers were defeated and finally fled back to the top of the mountain.

The sound of gold ringing sounded, and Cao Yuan ordered the troops to withdraw.

"Prince, why don't we take advantage of the victory to pursue it, attack the cliff in one go, and annihilate the Qin army?"

Cao Ren had not finished killing him.

Cao Yuan sneered and said:"A strong attack on the mountain will cost a lot of soldiers. Why should we attack if we can let Ma Dai die on his own?"

Cao Ren was stunned.

Ma Dai just went down the mountain to break out. Wasn't it because of the defeat that he had to retreat to the mountain?

After suffering such a big loss, how could Ma Dai still have the courage to go down the mountain to die again?

"Send the order and set fire to the mountain around me immediately!"

Cao Yuan waved his hand and shouted.

Cao Ren's eyes flashed, and he suddenly realized.

This is a brilliant move.

There are dense woods on the cliff, and if the fire is set off like this, there will be thick smoke and raging fire.

Ma Dai is still a turtle with his head shrinking, he will definitely They will be smoked to death on the top of the mountain.

Otherwise, they will have no choice but to lead their troops down the mountain again to break out.

"The prince's plan is cruel enough!"

Cao Ren raised his thumb and sighed in admiration.

The order was passed down.

The Wei army soldiers held up torches, lit firewood and set fires on all sides of the cliff.

In the blink of an eye, the entire cliff was shrouded in thick smoke.

On the top of the mountain.

Horses Dai and his remaining defeated generals had just escaped back to the camp and wanted to take a breath.

"General Chenggong, what do you think we should do in this situation?"

Ma Dai had no pride at all, and he only lowered his head and asked Cheng Gongying for advice.

Cheng Gongying sighed:"General Ziyue, if you had listened to my advice and not stationed troops on the mountain, how could we have ended up in this situation!"

Ma Dai's face was full of shame and shame.

At this moment, endless regret surged in his heart.

If he had known this, he would not have been able to fight on paper and pull his troops up the cliff.

If the troops were stationed at the street pavilion, even if the city wall was low, It's short, but there are wells in the city, and the water source will not be cut off. No matter how bad it is, it can last for ten and a half days.

But now, I am trapped on this mountain, the water source is cut off, I can't break out, I can only wait for death.

"General Chenggong, I was wrong"

"But at this point, what’s the point of talking about who is right and who is wrong?"

"You'd better think of a way for us to break out. Ma

Dai said shamelessly.

Cheng Gongying frowned and was silent.

At this moment, a soldier suddenly shouted:"No, there's a fire at the bottom of the mountain!""

Ma Daicheng Gongying's expression suddenly changed. He immediately ran to the camp wall and looked down.

The two of them took a breath of cool air.

They saw the Wei army at the foot of the mountain holding torches high and setting fire along the mountain.

The fire was raging and quickly spread to the top of the mountain, rolling and choking. Thick smoke from people hit his nostrils.

In an instant, the camp on the top of the mountain felt like it was being baked on a hot pot.

The heat wave rolled in, and the pungent smoke also hit his face. Qin, who was already thirsty, couldn't stand it. He was even tortured until his throat smoked, and he was in extreme pain.

"This Cao Yuan is really vicious!"

"He set fire to all sides. This is to force us to go down the mountain again to break out and seek death!"

Cheng Gongying gritted his teeth.

Ma Dai frowned and his fists were almost broken. He was full of grief and anger, but he could do nothing.

"Could it be that I, Ma Dai, really want to be buried on this cliff?"

"I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled~~"

The sad and desperate howls echoed on the top of the mountain.

Sudden.

A flash of light flashed in Cheng Gongying's eyes, and he said anxiously:"General Ziyue, don't despair, we still have a chance to escape."

Ma Dai perked up and looked at Cheng Gongying eagerly.

"Our mountain is surrounded by cliffs on three sides. Although Cao Yuan surrounded the mountain, he focused all his attention on the northern slope."

"Our only plan now is to use ropes immediately to descend from the cliff on the back of the mountain. There is still a glimmer of hope."

Cheng Gongying came up with a plan, but Ma Dai shuddered.

The cliff behind the mountain is full of thousands of blades, almost vertical.

If you want to climb down such a cliff with bare hands, you will almost die.

If you are not careful, It's about to fall down and be smashed into pieces.

"General Ziyue, take the risk, we still have a glimmer of hope."

"If we hesitate any longer, we will be smoked to death here. Cheng

Gongying was so anxious that his voice trembled.

Ma Dai suddenly woke up and stamped his feet:"This is the end of the matter, and this is the only way!""

The order was passed down.

Ropes were immediately lowered from the top of the mountain.

Ma Dai ordered the soldiers to grab the ropes and descend the cliff with bare hands.

The soldiers looked at the cliff in the abyss, and they were all frightened. No one dared to do anything.

"I can do it!"

Ma Dai gritted his teeth and had no choice but to set an example. He grabbed a rope and carefully dropped down.

Cheng Gongying said sternly:"If you want to live, come with me, or wait to be smoked to death by the Wei army."

With that said, Cheng Gongying also grabbed the rope and went down.

The Qin soldiers no longer hesitated, scrambled to grab the rope and fell down the cliff.

Screams came and went, echoing in the night.

Soldiers' feet kept coming. With a slip, they fell into the cliff and fell into a pulp.

They had no choice but to suppress the fear in their hearts and slid down tremblingly.

To the north,

Cao Yuan was drinking a small drink and admiring the raging mountain fire. Waiting for Ma Dai to lead his remaining soldiers to die.

The fire gradually began to weaken, but the Qin army still did not come down the mountain.

Cao Yuan could not help but feel a little suspicious in his eyes.

"Prince, we've been smoking for nearly two hours, why doesn't that guy Ma Dai come down from the mountain to break out?"

Cao Ren said puzzledly.

"Could it be that they were roasted alive on the top of the mountain? Huang

Zhong guessed.

Pang Tong shook his head.："Impossible. Before Ma Dai was smoked to death, he would definitely lead his army down the mountain to break out. How could he sit back and wait to die?"

"That's strange. Why hasn't there been any movement for so long?"

Huang Zhong scratched his forehead, his eyes full of confusion.

Cao Yuan said nothing, sipping the wine, staring at the Qin camp on the top of the mountain.

Suddenly, a light flashed in his eyes

"That's it, I almost didn't expect it……"

Cao Yuan smiled coldly, waved his hand and shouted:"That kid Ma Dai must be trying to escape from the cliff on the back of the mountain. Please speed up your troops to intercept him."
