Ma Chao was fighting against Gao Lan. When he heard what his team leader said, he couldn't help but be startled. Then he glanced around. Just as his team leader said, the Ma family cavalry had been beaten back by the Weilu army and was on the verge of collapse.
.
"kill."
Knowing that if he dragged on, the Ma family's cavalry might be eaten by the Weilu army, Ma Chao did not hesitate, shouted loudly, and launched a fierce attack on Gao Lan.
Sensing Ma Chao's offensive, Gao Lan knew that the enemy was impatient, so he quickly fired his gun. He wanted to keep Ma Chao behind, and then cooperate with the Weilu army to annihilate him.
Although Ma Chao was still young, his thoughts were very bright. He immediately understood Gao Lan's thoughts. After two hard shots, he made a sudden leap, jumped off the horse, and then kicked the horse's butt with his foot.
superior.
The war horse was in pain and crashed directly into Gao Lan in front.
Gao Lan was also surprised to see Ma Chao abandoning his war horse in order to escape. You must know that war horses are known as the second life of military commanders, and Ma Chao's war horse is obviously not an ordinary species.
Who.
Ma Chao was willing to give up, but Gao Lan was reluctant. After all, a good horse is hard to find. Now that Ma Chao can no longer catch up, it would be good to win his good horse.
Spotting the momentum of the war horse, Gao Lan jumped up and stepped directly onto the back of Ma Chao's war horse.
Ma Chao's war horse is psychic. When he feels someone riding on him, he starts to struggle. After all, this is not his master.
Feeling the struggle of the war horse, Gao Lan was not used to his bad habits and directly raised his fist and slammed the horse's head.
"Plop,"
There was a loud sound, and the war horse was directly hit by Gao Lan's force and fell to his knees on the ground.
Ma Chao's horse was immediately stunned after being smashed to the ground. What the hell is going on?
"Beast, listen to me, I don't care whose mount you were before, if you dare to struggle from now on, I will beat you until you surrender and take you down."
After Gao Lan finished speaking, he punched out several times in succession. The war horse under his crotch just lay on the ground and did not dare to move, and could not move. Then he sent someone to lead the good horse down, and he continued to chase with the Weilu Army.
kill.
The battle has gone on and there is no longer any suspense. Ma Teng's side has failed and suffered heavy losses. Of the more than 70,000 cavalry, only more than 40,000 can actually return to Cangsong City. In other words, there are more than 20,000 and nearly 30,000 cavalry forever.
was left in the wilderness outside the city,
As Yuan Shu's side had a great advantage, not only in terms of military strength, but also in psychology, the losses were much smaller, with only more than 10,000 cavalry lost.
But Yuan Shu was also very sad about this loss, because most of the more than 10,000 cavalry were his most elite Yingyang Army and Weilu Army.
There is nothing we can do about it. Who can make his troops charge the fastest and kill the hardest?
"My Lord, it seems from this battle that Ma Teng's coalition can still fight. If nothing else, he did not let others take the rear at the critical moment, but sent his son to lead the Ma family cavalry. This Ma Teng is a bit
thing."
Xun You came to Yuan Shu's tent and made a post-war summary of the battle.
"Well, Ma Shoucheng has been in Liangzhou for so many years, so he is certainly not a mediocre person."
Yuan Shu also nodded. If Ma Teng did not let Ma Chao take the back seat in order to preserve his strength in the end, but chose someone else, then the enemy might have collapsed in this battle.
"What's next?"
Xun You looked at Yuan Shu, his eyes flashing with thoughts.
"What do you say next?"
Yuan Shu smiled at Xun You, "What should I do next? You, a great strategist, asked me."
"The fight has been fought. It's time to give Ma Teng some time to digest the results of the defeat. Moreover, Wenyuan is about to launch an attack."
What Xun You meant was that the muscles were already shining, and it was time to wait. After all, he had backup options, so he could lose as little as possible.
"Well, let's talk about it later."
Hearing Xun You's words, Yuan Shu also nodded. He had lost more than 10,000 elite cavalry in one battle. It would be painful to let anyone go.
"promise."
With Yuan Shu's order, the entire camp fell silent, and the same happened in Cangsong City where Ma Teng was located. After this battle, they suffered heavy losses. The more than 70,000 cavalry were cut down by less than half, leaving only more than 40,000.
Fortunately, the remaining coalition forces did not suffer much losses, and they can still share the same hatred.
Time passed day by day. The coalition forces who were stationed in Cangsong City were relieved to see that Yuan Shu's army did not attack the city. They said that the Yuan family's iron army was not only unparalleled in field battles, but they were also able to defeat the city. It was easy for them to avoid fighting.
.
"Father, why do you think Yuan Shu has ceased his activities?
Could it be said that there were heavy losses in the battle that day?”
Although everyone was light-hearted, Ma Chao, a famous general in later generations, was a little frightened. The more silent the enemy became, the more he felt that there might be something fishy going on.
"I don't know, but it would be good for us that Yuan Shu did not take advantage of that day to attack directly. At least it would allow the army to slow down. Otherwise, if he really attacked directly, it is doubtful whether Cangsong City can be defended now."
How could Ma Teng not see what Ma Chao could see? He had a very certain answer in his heart, that is, Yuan Shu must be holding back the evil, but he really had no way of knowing where the evil was.
Waiting is not all bad for them. He now hopes that Yuan Shu can spend a month or two with him. You must know that Yuan Shu has many more soldiers and horses than himself, and the supply line is also long, and the consumption is much greater than himself.
The longer the time, the better it is for him, not to mention the variable Li Jue of Chang'an, he can afford to wait.
"My child understands,"
Ma Chao nodded towards Ma Teng. He didn't know if he really understood it or just understood it on the surface, but it didn't matter. After all, Ma Teng was still there. With his old horse here, he wouldn't let Ma Chao
Died young.
"Well, if you have nothing to do, go out and order the troops not to slack off. They must patrol closely. Once Yuan Shu attacks, he must react as quickly as possible."
"promise."
The area around Cangsong City fell into silence, with only one goshawk hovering in the sky. Both parties were waiting for what they wanted, and they were also waiting, waiting for another war to break out before they could get it.
More flesh and blood.
The war here in Cangsong was suspended, but Zhang Liao was on the verge of mobilizing. It must be said that Wang Ling and Jia Kui still had some military skills. They each led five thousand Dang bandits and arrived at Rile and Fanhe one day in advance.
You must know that it seems easy to go one day in advance, but it is actually very difficult. Not only do they have to rush, but they also have to hide themselves. If the battle in Liangzhou ends this time, Yuan Shu may have two more strong generals under his command.
"Do you want to do it or not?"
Wang Ling, several team leaders and the village chief were lying on a hillock, looking down at the Qiang tribe below.
