"There is no room for you to interrupt here, stand down!" Zuo Aoran angrily scolded Liang Xing, and then said: "Our army is short of food and fodder for the follow-up. It is unwise to attack the rebels with too many casualties. This general
I have made up my mind to stop the troops for three days and wait until the next supplies of food and grass arrive before sending troops to attack the rebels!" After saying that, Zuo Aoran walked out of the tent.
How could Bian Zhang not understand the meaning of Zuo Aoran's words? This was a hint to him. Bian Zhang kowtowed repeatedly and said: "Thank you, Lord! Thank you, Lord! Thank you, Lord! Thank you, Lord..."
…
Liangzhou, Gole River Beach.
A Qiang general struggled and rushed to Ma Teng and said sadly: "General, we can't get out. The spearmen of the army are too dense. After a while, they were smashed into sieves. We can't get out at all."
!”
"Also, there are too many archers in the official army. Brothers have no shields and no place to hide!" Another Han general yelled: "General, more than half of the brothers have been killed or injured. If we continue to fight like this, we will be in trouble."
It’s all over!”
"Then you have to keep fighting! If you can't get out, you have to keep charging!" Ma Teng roared angrily and said loudly: "Open your eyes and look, there is cold river water on both sides, behind and in front are Dong Zhuo's thieves
Soldiers, don’t fight! Don’t charge! What else can you do? Tell the brothers, fight, fight with the hell, kill!”
"Abet abet~~"
Another wave of arrows fell mercilessly from the sky, and dozens or hundreds of Liangzhou soldiers fell down with howls.
"Hahaha~~"
As Dong Zhuo's army formed in the rear, Zhao Cen looked up to the sky and smiled. He saw that the charges of the Liangzhou soldiers were blocked by his own troops time and time again, while the archers hiding behind the pike soldiers brought continuous damage to the Liangzhou soldiers. If this continues
If we go down, it won't take long for Ma Teng's rebels to be completely wiped out, and the honor of killing Xiliang's fierce general Ma Teng will soon fall on his head, Zhao Cen.
…
"Uh-huh~"
"Tmd, are you crazy?"
"You Qiang dogs, wow~~"
Several pitiful roars suddenly sounded strangely, and they were close to Zhao Cen's ears. Zhao Cen suddenly turned around, and in the flash of sword light, he saw hundreds of soldiers slashing his own people with their swords. They were in a strict and orderly formation.
There was chaos in an instant, and many archers were caught off guard and fell down with howls.
"What's going on?" Zhao Cen asked sharply: "Damn it, what on earth is going on?"
"General...general...general." A small colonel ran over panting and said sternly: "Hundreds of Qiang dogs, all of whom have no Qiang species in the barbarian village, suddenly switched sides in front of the formation and slashed to kill their own people."
"Damn it!" Zhao Cen said angrily: "Send me an order! Kill all the Qiang dogs that have no Qiang species in the Manling Village. No one will be left alive!"
"Report~~" Zhao Cen's words just faded when another small school hurriedly came over and said quickly: "General, the Qiang dogs who beat drums and Qiang in Dahan Mountain have also rebelled."
"What?" Zhao Cen was startled and turned to look in the other direction. Sure enough, he saw that the right wing of the army was also starting to riot. Farther away, Zhang Jidi's army was also rioting, with fierce shouts of killing and
There were a lot of curses, horses neighing and people boiling, and the situation gradually started to get out of control.
Dong Zhuo's army suddenly killed each other and fell into a melee. Ma Teng's army, who was originally trapped on the river beach and could not fight out, stood idly by and watched. Even Ma Teng was caught off guard. However, after all, Ma Teng was battle-hardened and could be considered a dead man.
Anyone who has been rolling around in the pile can tell at a glance that now is the best time to break out of the encirclement.
"Brothers, when the opportunity comes, kill!" Ma Tenghu roared.
"Kill, kill, kill~~"
In the end, more than a thousand remnants of the remaining soldiers followed Ma Teng and launched the last and fastest offensive against the turbulent Dong Zhuo's army. The arrows fired from Dong Zhuo's army became obviously sparse and scattered. They were originally as dense as a forest.
The spears also became sparse. Ma Teng picked up a spear from the chaos and swept all directions with one move, knocking away three enemy soldiers blocking him. The Liangzhou soldiers behind him rushed up like a tide.
, finally rushed out of the river beach.
"General Ma Teng, go this way~~" A thunderous shout suddenly sounded from the rebellious army.
Ma Teng suddenly raised his head and saw a Qiang marshal leading four to five hundred Qiang warriors among the rebels in front of him. They were struggling to resist the siege of Dong Zhuo's army several times.
Is Jiang Da, the leader of Dahanshanluo and Guqiang, the leader?”
"It's the villain!" The Qiang commander responded: "Fen Xianying, who has no Qiang in the barbarian village, has died in the battle. The villain is about to lose his support. General, leave quickly! General, leave quickly!"
Ma Teng's heart trembled, and he turned around and shouted: "Brothers, retreat!"
The powerful commander of the Qiang tribe led the warriors to get out of the way and allowed Ma Teng's thousand remaining soldiers to pass through. When the last soldier of Ma Teng's army passed through, hundreds of Qiang soldiers quickly gathered around again, barely blocking the pursuit.
When Dong Zhuo's army arrived, the Qiang hero knocked an enemy soldier away with his sword. He turned around and said to Ma Teng: "General, leave quickly. I'll cut off the enemy's rear!"
Ma Teng had no intention of fighting and led more than a thousand remnant troops to retreat to Pengyang in panic. When Ma Teng's remnant army had just disappeared into the vast night, the Qiang marshal and hundreds of elite soldiers from his tribe were at Fan Chou, Hu Zhen and
Zhao Cen's remaining soldiers were attacked from three sides and the entire army was wiped out. More than a thousand Qiang soldiers were all killed in the battle.
Ma Teng's remnant army was running halfway when they suddenly saw bright torches ahead and a cavalry force of more than 200 men approaching fiercely. The two armies collided on the official road. Ma Teng sighed and was about to cheer up and lead his army to fight to the death.
At that moment, I suddenly saw that the commander of this cavalry looked familiar. When I took a closer look by the firelight, I saw that it was Pound!
"Lingming!" Ma Teng was shocked and hissed: "How did you get here?"
"General? He is really a general!" Pang De got off his horse, ran quickly to Ma Teng, knelt down on the ground, and cried bitterly: "General, the last general is incompetent, Pengyang City... is lost!"
"Ah? Peng Yang is lost!" Ma Teng's heart sank and he asked anxiously: "What about Ma Chao, Ma Dai and Ma Xiu?"
"Still in the army," Pound replied.
"Huh~" Ma Teng breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "As long as it's okay, it'll be okay!"
"The general is in trouble, the enemy troops on the Gole River beach are chasing us!"
"There are enemy troops chasing from the direction of Pengyang!"
Just as Ma Teng finished speaking, his soldiers suddenly shouted in panic. Just as the soldiers finished speaking, another soldier shouted. Ma Teng raised his head in surprise and saw stars appearing in the direction of Gole River Beach and Pengyang at the same time.
The little torches are rushing towards this side. Looking at the posture, there must be at least seven or eight thousand cavalry.
Relying on the defection of two Qiang heroes in front of the battle, Ma Teng's more than a thousand remnant soldiers fought their way out of the siege, but they also lost all their horses. The original cavalry now became foot soldiers. Only Pang De's two hundred
With multiple cavalry, how can they resist Dong Zhuo's thousands of tiger and wolf cavalry?
Ma Teng grabbed a mount, quickly got on his horse and said to Pang De, "Ling Ming!"
Pang De straightened his body and said sternly: "The end is here."
"Lead two hundred cavalry to defeat the rear." Ma Teng almost squeezed out these words through his teeth.
Pang De immediately responded without hesitation: "Yes."
"The rest of the brothers, follow me and withdraw!" Ma Teng said.
Ma Teng gave an order, and more than a thousand remaining soldiers fled in panic towards Beidi County in the east. Pound led two hundred cavalry with his horse and sword to stay, barely blocking the middle of the official road. The cold night wind swayed Pang De
De's broken cloak crackled under the night sky. Pound's expression was cold, and there was a look of determination in his eyes.
Pound groaned, and slowly raised the long sword in his hand. Two hundred cavalry lined up behind Pound, and two hundred sharp sabers were slowly unsheathed. Under the dark night sky in front, long dragons dancing on the ground surged forward.
Come, more than 8,000 cavalrymen swoop in from the south and north.
With two hundred against five thousand, this battle is unreasonable! Looking back at the direction where Ma Teng's remnant army was retreating, Pound's mouth suddenly showed a desolate smile. The next moment, the long knife in Pound's hand had already moved forward.
Pressing it down heavily, a loud and clear shout sounded like thunder in the night sky.
"kill!"
Pound grabbed the horse's belly with both legs, and rode ahead, flying forward. Two hundred Liangzhou cavalry galloped their horses and raised their swords, following Pound to the death. The sharp blades of their swords reflected the cold dark night sky, and their desperate killing intent was reflected in every moment.
A Xiliang soldier's heart agitated: Living in troubled times, why should a man cherish his life?
…
In Liangzhou, the sky is already bright.
"Hey~~" Pound stopped his horse and gently turned its head. Not far ahead, the dark enemy cavalry was gathering into a vast sea, like a dark cloud weighing heavily on the horse.
De's heart was so deep that Pound couldn't breathe. In front of the two armies, on the empty official road, the corpses of thousands of men and horses were lying in random directions.
All two hundred cavalry under Pound's command have been killed, and he himself has been seriously injured and exhausted. Pound is a human being after all, and he is also made of flesh and blood. There is also a time when his strength is exhausted! From late night to dawn yesterday, Pound fought
They had been fighting for several hours, and the long sword had already been curled. He snatched the enemy's zanma sword and continued to fight, curling the sword again, and snatching it again... Pang De couldn't remember how many zanma swords he had curled in total, let alone
How many enemy troops were killed in total?
A stream of thick blood slipped from the corner of his forehead and slid into his eyes. Pang couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly, and immediately felt dizzy in front of his eyes. Just when he was charging for the last time, a handsome Qiang man's wolf fang
The stick hit him hard on the forehead, and Pound almost fell off his horse.
In front of Dong Zhuo's army formation, Xu Rong reined in his horse and slowly came out of the formation. His eyes were firmly locked on Pang De, who was covered in blood. His eyes revealed unstoppable admiration and he said loudly: "General Pang De, I respect you as an iron man."
You noble men, who cannot bear to harm each other, why don't you abandon your sword and surrender, and join the service of my lord?"
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Pang De's mouth, he crossed the sword in his hand and said: "Pound understands General Xu's kindness. Please don't say more, General Xu. Please just let your horse come over. Pound can only
It’s just a fight to the death.”
Xu Rong sighed and said: "Okay! As long as General Pang turns around and leaves here, and no longer prevents me from leading the army to pursue Ma Teng's rebels, I will let you go without any trouble.
How about we just pretend it never happened?"
Pound shook his head inconspicuously and said calmly: "It's not impossible to get over, but there is only one way, and that is to step over Pound's body!"
The sky was silent, calm and windless, and inexplicable tragedy and determination stirred up in Pound's tone. Pound tilted his head slightly, looking into the distance where Ma Teng was escaping, with a hint of regret in his eyes: "General, this is
Pound charged into the battle for the last time, and that’s all Pound could do! In the next life, Pound will not yet be able to lead the army and lead the army!"
