Chapter 359 Ma Chao? Why haven't I heard of Lu Bu?
Two days later.
Ma Su rushed to station in Chang'an before the Xiliang army reached the hinterland of Guanzhong, took over the city, and arranged defense affairs.
As soon as his front foot stabilized his position, the Xiliang army's rear foot attacked the city.
Jin Machao, who was only seventeen years old, was galloping in the open space below the city. With a spear in his hand, he shouted loudly toward the city: "I am Ma Chao, Xiliang! People in the city listen, quickly open the city and surrender!"
Otherwise, the city will be destroyed in three seconds, and no chickens or dogs will be left behind!"
As soon as these words came out, the Han soldiers at the top of Chang'an City had a look of fear on their faces.
They are not afraid of Ma Chao. Ma Chao is still an unknown soldier at this stage and is not something to be afraid of. What they are afraid of is the densely packed Xiliang cavalry under Chang'an City that cannot be seen at a glance.
Ma Su stood proudly on the top of the city, his nostrils pointed towards the city and said: "Ma Chao? Why haven't you heard of my bloody-handed man slaughtering Ma Su? He is just an unknown person and has no qualifications to talk to a noble man. He quickly retreated and let Ma Teng come forward to speak!"
"
As soon as these words came out, Ma Chao almost choked and exploded on the spot. His eyes widened instantly, his chest heaved violently, and he waved his weapons and shouted wildly: "The whole army listens to the order, attack the city, attack the city for me!"
He was young and vigorous, believed in his strength, and was arrogant. He hated to see others look down upon him. This time he led 50,000 cavalry to fight for Chang'an. He thought that he should be arrogant and show off his talents as a young general.
He was so majestic, but he didn't expect to be looked down upon by a young man with a younger voice than him as soon as he stepped out.
How can this be tolerated?
fed up!
Ma Su stood at the top of the city, calmly watching the Xiliang cavalry below the city move the siege equipment in a mess like headless flies, howling across the moat, trying to attack the city, as if he was watching a child play house.
This battle was too easy...
Although there is no simulator assistance in this life, Ma Su is absolutely confident in defeating Ma Teng and his son.
After all, he was the one who had fought and won the King's Game in the late Three Kingdoms period. He could handle the bronze and silver games in the early Three Kingdoms period without any pressure.
In Ma Di's opinion, during the hundred years from the end of the Han Dynasty to the end of the Three Kingdoms (184-280), the difficulty of war can be roughly divided into five stages.
The first stage is (184-189), which is the period from the Yellow Turban Uprising to the death of Ling Emperor Liu Hong. The difficulty of the war during this period is approximately equivalent to the Black Iron-Bronze level. If we say one million Yellow Turban troops, one million Black Mountain
The millions of Qingzhou Yellow Turbans are all black iron level opponents, and the 100,000 Xiliang army that wreaked havoc on Liangzhou are probably silver level opponents.
During this period, any silver-level general can be killed indiscriminately. Such as Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, and Lu Zhi. The three of them became the three famous generals by virtue of their achievements in quelling the Yellow Turbans, but these three people themselves have the most strength.
It was only at the silver level. So when they were later sent to Guanzhong to fight against the Xiliang army, their performance was mediocre and they could not win in repeated battles. As a result, the final outcome of the three of them was not very good. When they needed to stand up to resist Dong Zhuo and help him,
During the Han Dynasty, all three of them did nothing.
The second stage is from 189 to 199, which is the ten years when all the heroes rise up and the princes fight. During this period, the difficulty of the war in the world is approximately equivalent to the silver level.
During this period, any general whose strength reached the gold level or above could lead troops to charge without thinking about any strategy, and kill indiscriminately. Such as Sun Ce, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and the heroes of Jiangdong and the heroes of the Central Plains stood opposite them respectively.
, Hebei heroes are probably equivalent to the bronze to silver level.
…
The third stage is from 199 to 207, which is the stage when all the heroes are withering away and the world situation is rapidly reshuffled.
The difficulty of the war at this stage has been increased, which is roughly equivalent to the gold level. The generals' bravery alone is no longer enough to win, so Cao Cao used "burning the black nest", "ambushing from all directions" and "bluffing" when he defeated Yuan Shao.
"; there are also famous scenes such as "differentiating to win over each other and playing hard to get" in the three Yuan Dynasties.
The fourth stage is from 207 to 219, which is the period at the beginning of the establishment of the Three Kingdoms. The difficulty of the war in this stage has risen to the platinum-diamond level. Some of the commanders in the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu, and Wu have reached a very high level.
Level, not only does he know that he can't beat him, but he will wait for the time to change, and he also knows how to push for 41 points and steal the tower.
For example, Liu Bei just borrowed Nan County with nothing, and captured the four counties of Jingnan, thinking that he would make a profit; Sun Quan over there had already captured the entire Jiaozhou and a Jiangxia County, making more money than Liu Bei.
On the other hand, Cao Cao did not make too many concessions. Although he suffered a small loss in Chibi, he backhandedly captured Yongzhou, Liangzhou, and Hanzhong.
For example, when Liu Bei was about to start a war with Cao Cao in Hanzhong, Sun Quan overtly and secretly seized the three counties of Jingnan; when Guan Yu had just established his power in China and planned to pursue and attack Cao Cao, Sun Quan over there stole Jingzhou.
At this stage, the three countries compete to see which side has more high-powered commanders, so unexpected and fatal blows often occur.
The reason why Guan Yu was completely defeated by Lu Meng and Lu Xun was not because his strength did not reach the diamond level, which is the ceiling for commanders at this stage (otherwise, he would not have overwhelmed the Seventh Army and defeated Cao Cao when he wanted to move the capital), but because he was a diamond level commander.
There were four commanders of the same level or even higher (Yu Jin and Cao Ren were probably barely at the platinum-diamond level; Lu Meng and Lu Xun were all commanders at the diamond level or above), and Guan Yu did not receive any help from his friends. In this way, he was defeated.
No wonder.
The fifth stage is from 219 to 280. After nearly forty years of war, most of the commanders of the Three Kingdoms at this time have reached the level of kings. Usually, before a war has even begun, they can already see through their own eyes.
What is the probability of winning or losing?
Speaking of this stage, we have to mention the three outstanding figures of the shining era, Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, and Lu Xun.
Needless to say about the combat effectiveness of the first two, any opponent who makes a slight mistake in front of them will definitely be destroyed. For example, when Sima Yizhi eliminated Meng Da, Gongsun Yuan, Cao Shuang, Wang Ling and others, a thunderous attack was carried out.
Like Zhuge Liang saving the Shu Han from a critical situation, conquering the Southern Barbarians in the south, and suppressing Cao Wei in the north, the weakest country in the Three Kingdoms showed its strongest style, and Sima Yi, the king-level coach who once fought against him, could only avoid fighting.
As for Lu Xun, although he has not fought against Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi, his record is scary enough. First, together with Lu Meng, he beat the Shu Han general Guan Yu as if he were a child; then he killed Liu Bei who came to retaliate, leaving no trace of his armor behind.
.A few years later, he killed Cao Xiu, the general of the Wei State, and fled in embarrassment. He died in depression. Three battles established his reputation as a king.
For thousands of years, people have always had a conjecture about Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong. If the three king-level commanders in the fifth stage come to the troubled times of the first or second stage, that is, the current period of "all heroes rise together", they can
Can't you kill indiscriminately?
Ma Su also had such doubts.
Frankly speaking, before reincarnation, he didn't know the exact answer. Now, he knows.
From his perspective, who had been in the King's Bureau, the 50,000 Xiliang cavalry, led by Ma Teng and his son, who fought all the way to Chang'an City with murderous intent, were just paper tigers that were strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
Therefore, he deliberately used words to provoke Ma Chao to attack the city, and then condescendingly killed the Xiliang army's vigor, creating favorable conditions for the next plan.
