After fleeing and reorganizing in the middle of the night, Han Sui finally successfully reunited the retreating Qiang army. For yesterday's day and night of battle, Han Sui could only use the word shame to describe in his heart.
An entire army of 100,000 people was beaten by Ma Chao and Ying Zige's cavalry of around 10,000 men. Not only was Cheng Yin, the vanguard of the army, beheaded by Ma Chao in front of him, but he himself would have been killed if his nephew Han Liang had not led a group of die-hard relatives.
Wei's life-long defense may also fall into Ma Chao's hands.
At this time, after counting the battle losses last night, the anger in Han Sui's heart was rising. After the first battle, not to mention the countless losses of money, food and baggage, only one hundred thousand troops and horses were lost.
The rate actually reached more than 10%. Including Cheng Yin's 10,000 vanguard army, more than 20,000 troops and horses were lost in the previous battle.
In the final analysis, it can be said that the reason for all this lies with Ma Chao.
Let's talk about Cheng Yin's 10,000 vanguard army first. It can be said that it was completely destroyed by Ma Chao, who led 8,000 Ma family cavalry, and then chased Cheng Yin one after another. He took the opportunity to break into Han Sui's main camp and went crazy.
With one shot, he knocked down the camp gate and destroyed half of the defensive walls of the camp. This shocked the minds of countless Han Sui soldiers and caused their morale to plummet.
After that, Pang De, accompanied by Ying Zige, killed a carbine, and his timing was unprecedentedly accurate. Not only did he kill Han Sui's main army in one fell swoop, he also pursued Han Sui like a bloodthirsty maniac.
It made him experience the feeling of having no way to heaven and no door to earth.
In short, Han Sui had completely blamed Ma Chao for everything that had happened before, and he felt Ma Chao's deep hatred for him.
"Lord!" In the Chinese army tent, just when Han Sui closed his eyes and concentrated, trying to control the hatred in his heart, a captain's voice suddenly sounded outside. Listening to this unfamiliar voice, Han Sui couldn't help but tremble slightly.
I was stunned, and it took me a while to realize that Han Liang, the commander of his own soldiers who had been following him for more than ten years, had already disappeared from the scene in order to protect himself during the previous rainy night.
"Come in!" After a moment of silence, Han Suigang shook his head, tried hard to get rid of the random thoughts in his mind, and shouted outside with a cold expression.
"Lord!" It was a Qiang captain who came in. After entering the camp, he bowed respectfully to Han Sui and then said, "Lord, Commander Qu asked the last general to report that all the armies are here.
It has been settled according to the lord's instructions, and everything has been integrated into one, and is no longer dispersed according to tribes."
"Have all the sentries been sent out to explore the horse? Ying Zige, is there any movement over Ma Chao's son?" Nodding, Han Sui's eyes flashed with a hint of fatigue and confusion, then quickly disappeared and asked.
"Don't worry, my lord, the scouts and sentries have all been dispatched. According to the lord's instructions, an additional patrol team of a thousand people was dispatched, divided into hundreds of teams of ten, covering a hundred miles radius of the Weishui camp.
boundary." The captain replied quickly.
"Stabilize your mind first, and then look for an opportunity to fight when your morale is restored!" Han Sui couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction when he heard this. The successive defeats not only filled Han Sui's heart with confusion, but also made him distrustful of Ying Zige's army.
The battle produced a hint of fear.
The person he hates the most at this time has become a nightmare for him and all his soldiers. At this time, he just wants to confront each other peacefully for a while, looking forward to possible changes, such as
Xiliang Iron Cavalry in the direction of Chang'an.
Thoughts were flying, and after a while, Han Sui couldn't help but rub his swollen forehead, waved his hand to signal the captain to leave, then fell down on the soft couch in the tent and fell into a deep sleep.
…………
Next to the original Han Sui camp, after Ying Zige's order was issued, in a short period of time, the Qiang camp after some transformation was transformed into a majestic camp. After the camp was built, Ying Zi
Ge didn't even wait for Ma Chao to come back, he lay down alone in his specially built warm tent, lazily lying on the soft bed specially prepared for him by Wang Yi, and fell into a semi-dormant state.
.
It is said that rainy days are indeed suitable for sleeping, but for Ying Zige, the most comfortable state is just a state of relaxation, where he seems to be awake but not awake, and seems to be asleep but not asleep. In this state, Ying Zige found that he was not only mentally and physically
After getting enough rest, even when I think about problems, I can think about it a few minutes faster than when I am completely awake.
As for Ma Chao Pangde, Ying Zige is not worried at all. A super-class warrior who has entered the third level of the externalized realm of Gang Qi is going to hunt down a bereaved dog with the revenge of killing his father. There is nothing to worry about.
Not to mention that he was closely followed by a first-class general who led thousands of cavalry. In other words, unless Han Sui suddenly transformed into Lu Fengxian, or summoned tens of thousands of troops out of thin air to encircle and kill him, Ma Chao's life would not be saved.
Every question.
Instead of worrying about Ma Chao, Ying Zige might as well take this time to take a good rest to relieve the fatigue of running all night long and think about the next situation. Fortunately, when Guo Jia leads the army to join them, he can be there as soon as possible.
Throw the pot out.
"I am the master, how can I always be in the limelight and steal the credit from Fengxiao and others!" Ying Zige thought.
In the central tent, after Ma Chao returned to the camp, Ying Zige didn't say much to him. He directly sent him back to rest. It wasn't until Guo Jia arrived with his army the next day that he summoned them here together.
In the big tent, looking at Ma Chao with a stern expression and restrained aura, he smiled slightly and asked, "Has Meng Qi's health been restored?"
Ma Chao didn't say anything, but there was a flash of sadness in his eyes that still had traces of bloodshot eyes. Under the gaze of all the civil and military officials, he silently took two steps forward and suddenly knelt down in front of Ying Zige like pushing a golden mountain toppling a jade pillar.
"What does Meng Qi mean by this?!" Ying Zige asked calmly without the slightest surprise.
"Lord!" Ma Chao knelt on the ground, his stern look a bit lonely. "Since his father was killed, Chao has led the army to fight against Han Lao Thief many times. However, he suffered heavy losses every time. Although he relied on his own bravery,
, and also caused some damage to Old Thief Han, but in the end it was a drop in the bucket.
Fortunately, the Lord did not remember Chao's teasing about Beiyuan, and took Yu Chao in, and took tens of thousands of brothers from the Ma family under his command. Later, he led us to defeat the old thief Han Sui again and again, giving Chao a chance to take revenge.
The opportunity, the great kindness, Ma Chao will remember it in his heart, and he will never forget it! I hope that my lord will be honored by Chao!"
