Everyone looked at it, and the person who invited the battle was none other than Xiliang Lion Jinma Chao. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Cao Cao's expression was shocked, as if he saw a little hope from Ma Chao's confident words.

He knew very well that what Ma Chao said was not unreasonable, although the potters attacked Pubanjin successfully, but they must have brought a light army, and the number could not be much, if Ma Chao led 20,000 iron horsemen to recapture it now, it may not be impossible to recapture.

If the main army of 200,000 is transferred from Hongnong to Hedong and successfully crosses the river, then he really has no hope.

After weighing for a while, Cao Cao nodded and wanted to agree, but at this time, Xu Huang suddenly said: "Your Majesty, what Meng Qi said is indeed reasonable, but that pottery thief has a sharp weapon such as a rainstorm crossbow, and even 50,000 Qiang Hu iron horses are not opponents, and Meng Qi's 20,000 Xiliang iron horses are only afraid of ......."

Xu Huang didn't say anything, but the meaning of the words was already clear.

Fifty thousand Qiang riders are not opponents, let alone 20,000 Xiliang iron riders, in front of the rainstorm and crossbows, everything is floating clouds!

Ma Chao smiled proudly, and said proudly: "Although the pottery thief's rainstorm crossbow is powerful, don't forget, the Xiliang iron cavalry trained by my Ma family has a completely different tactic from other Xiliang iron horses, and it specializes in restraining the pottery thief's rainstorm crossbow, otherwise how can I have the confidence to dare to recapture Pubanjin for His Majesty with 20,000 iron horses." ”

As soon as these words came out, Cao Cao's eyes suddenly rose, and suddenly he remembered something, and his eyes suddenly burst into ecstasy.

He didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately patted the case, and said happily: "Okay, with Meng Qi coming out, I still have nothing to worry about, I will allow you Meng Qi to ask, and immediately send troops to recapture Pu Yanjin." ”

"Your Majesty rest assured, within three days, the minister will recapture Pubanjin for His Majesty, if the pottery thief dares to fight arrogantly against the minister, the minister will cut off his head and sacrifice it to His Majesty." Ma Chao hugged his fists, generous and confident.

So, Cao Cao's will was issued, and Ma Chao took his self-confidence, left Tongguan with 20,000 Xiliang iron horses, and went straight to Pubanjin under the starry night.

In this battle, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Cao Cao not only sent Ma Chao to lead the troops, but also ordered the generals Pang De, Yan Yan, and even Xu Chu, one of the commanders of his Imperial Forest Army, to send out, and the four top generals of martial arts were dispatched at the same time to recapture Pubanjin.

The generals were ordered to go on the expedition, Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes stared at the word "Pusaka" on the map, his brows were deep, his eyes were full of hatred, and he muttered: "Tao thief, do you think your trick can succeed so easily, I will never let your army enter my Great Qin land!" ”

……

20,000 Xiliang iron horsemen, all the way to the north, within a few days have arrived at the place of twenty miles southwest of Pubanjin.

Kasakatsu Camp, Imperial Tent.

After the dragon case, the potter drank warm wine and listened to the scout's urgent report:

20,000 Xiliang iron cavalry has been approaching, the forward is approaching Pubanjin, and the commander of the army is Ma Chao, the first general of Xiliang.

"Jin Ma Chao...... "The potter muttered to himself, his thoughts racing, recalling his memories of Ma Chao.

Historically, this is an extremely awesome figure.

In that year, Cao Cao's western expedition to the pass, Ma Chao led 100,000 Xiliang troops to rebel, and the battle of Weishui was to kill Cao Cao until he cut his beard and abandoned his robe, and almost died.

In history, there were only a few princes who could make Cao Cao so embarrassed, and Ma Chao was one of them.

What's more, Ma Chao also brought 20,000 Xiliang Iron Riders.

In terms of quantity alone, the 20,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry are inferior to the original 50,000 Qiang Hu Cavalry, but the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is from the regular army, well-equipped and well-trained, and its combat effectiveness is not inferior to the 50,000 Qiang Hu Cavalry.

"Your Majesty, we have a rainstorm and a crossbow, and 50,000 Qiang riders can be wiped out, not to mention 20,000 Xiliang Iron Riders, tomorrow's battle, so that Ma Chao will also follow in the footsteps of Cheriji!" Luo Cheng said confidently.

Huo Quzhi also said with a curious face: "When the minister was in the state, I heard that His Majesty broke 50,000 Qiang Hu iron cavalry with 5,000 crossbow soldiers, all relying on the power of the rainstorm crossbow, and the minister was also extremely curious about this magical crossbow, just to see its power." ”

"I didn't bring this rainstorm crossbow." The potter shook his head lightly.

At this moment, Huo Quzhi and Luo Cheng were stunned, and they glanced at each other, with doubts in their eyes.

Obviously, they couldn't figure out why the Son of Heaven didn't bring such a sharp weapon against cavalry as the rainstorm repeater crossbow in such a crucial battle.

The potter drank a glass of wine and said lightly: "Cao Cao's 50,000 Qiang Hu Tieqi was wiped out by the rainstorm and crossbows a while ago, and he suffered such a big loss, do you think Cao Cao is stupid, and he will be tripped twice in the same place?" ”

As soon as the potter spoke, he asked Huo Quzhi and Luo Cheng, and the two generals both subconsciously shook their heads.

"If that's the case, then does Your Majesty intend to take a defensive position, hold on to Kasakatsu, and wait for my follow-up army to arrive?" Huo Quzhi asked again.

"What a joke!" The pottery merchant snorted coldly, and the pride on his heroic face suddenly became angry, "My 200,000 army attacked Qin, only Cao Cao's share, how can I defend it, my Great Wei Xiongshi, only attack and attack, and then attack!" ”

The sentence "attack and attack, attack again", the words are arrogant, and they are infected with Huo Quzhi and Luo Chenger's blood.

However, these two generals are not reckless generals, and while their blood is agitated, they still maintain a little calmness in their hearts.

The jade-faced cold spear Qiao Luocheng arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty wants to fight, the minister should accompany Your Majesty to fight to the end, the previous battle to destroy Qianghu, the minister has been deeply impressed by His Majesty's strategy, since His Majesty is determined to fight with Xiliang Iron Cavalry, the minister believes that His Majesty has written a perfect strategy!" ”

The potter smiled, thinking that although this Luo Cheng had followed me for a short time, he knew me very well and knew that I would not fight uncertain battles.

At this time, Huo Quzhi suddenly realized that he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, has a clever plan to break the Xiliang Iron Cavalry?" ”

The pottery merchant smiled secretly, and did not say anything, but asked rhetorically: "Although Ma Chao's Xiliang Iron Cavalry is strong, after all, there are only 20,000, he knows that we have a rainstorm and crossbows, and he dares to come to fight, Cao Cao is still approved, don't you think this is very strange?" ”

The generals in the tent looked shocked, and their eyes invariably showed a little awakening.

Huo Quzhi nodded again and again: "Your Majesty's suspicion is very right, Ma Chao is brave and unscrupulous, don't say it, Cao Cao is extremely treacherous, he will definitely not let Ma Chao come to death in vain." ”

"Yes, but why did Cao Cao let Ma Chao come to fight?" Luo Cheng also said suspiciously.

The potter still didn't break it, but his eyes looked at Yingbu, and asked with a smile: "Yingbu, did you bring those things that I sent to you in advance?" ”

Yingbu, who had been silent, suddenly burst into surprise in his eyes, and hurriedly said: "It turns out that Your Majesty has already thought of a strategy to break the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and those things have been ordered to be mixed in the grain transportation team and transported to Pubanjin together." ”

"That's good." The potter nodded with satisfaction, "Tomorrow's battle, let's bring those things with you." ”

Huo Quzhi and the two listened to the mysterious conversation between the two gentlemen and ministers, and their expressions were full of curiosity.

Luo Cheng couldn't help but ask excitedly: "Your Majesty really has a clever plan to break the enemy, I don't know if I can let the ministers know." ”

The potter still didn't answer, but drank a glass of wine and asked again: "You keep saying that the Xiliang Iron Horse, the Xiliang Iron Horse, then have you ever investigated and understood in advance, is there any difference between the Xiliang Iron Horse under Ma Chao and other Xiliang Iron Horses?" ”

This question immediately stopped the two generals again, and his expression was even more suspicious.

After hesitating for a moment, Huo Quzhi said: "The minister didn't have a careful understanding of the Ma family's Xiliang Iron Cavalry, but Dong Zhuo led the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to cause chaos in the world, judging from the style of the Xiliang Army, it was nothing more than a fierce battle. ”

The potter smiled, smiled meaningfully, and said with emotion: "The art of war, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, can win a hundred battles, no matter when, you can't use past experience to infer the current enemy, otherwise, sooner or later, one day you will suffer a big loss." ”

Huo Quzhi and Luo Cheng's expressions moved, and the two glanced at each other, their eyes were even more dazed, and it was difficult to comprehend the deep meaning of the potter's words for a moment.

The potter didn't say much, drank the last glass of wine, slammed the wine glass on the table, and said: "You don't have to be curious anymore, just endure it for another day, tomorrow you will know what is the difference between Ma Chao's Xiliang Iron Cavalry." ”

When it came to this, Huo Qubing and Luo Cheng's second general were not good to ask again, so they had to press the fox suspicion, and waited for the arrival of tomorrow's battle.

The potter's eyes shot at the wind and snow flying outside the curtain, and the corners of his mouth raised a playful sneer, "Jin Ma Chao, I want to see if your Ma family's iron horse is as different as Zhang Yi's intelligence said......

……

The next day, in the early afternoon.

It had been snowing heavily for several days, and it stopped on this day, and the sky was clear overhead, which was the time for the big battle.

As the saying goes, it's cold before frost and cold after snow, and although the snow has stopped, the temperature is even colder to the bone.

In the afternoon, the 20,000 Great Wei Infantry Cavalry Corps was already lined up on the road to Pubanjin.

Although the sun was blazing overhead, the temperature on the ground was extremely cold, and the cold wind swept the snow and dust on the bare faces of the soldiers, scraping them like knives and making them faintly painful.

In the face of such cold weather, even the iron-blooded soldiers of the Wei army couldn't help but shiver and kept stomping their feet on the snow to maintain their body temperature.

Under the imperial banner of the word "Wei", the potter immediately crossed the knife, standing majestically like a golden iron tower, and the eagle eyes stared at the southwest direction.

A moment later, I saw that on the southern avenue, flying snow and dust covered the sky, like a rolling blizzard, hitting this side.

In the snowstorm, I faintly saw a black figure, rolling like an angry wave, one after another battle flags were hunting and flying in the snow, and the ground under my feet was also trembling.

"Ma Chao, are you finally here......" The potter clenched the sword in his hand, and there was only fierce and domineering confidence in his eagle eyes.

The nerves of the soldiers of the three armies immediately tensed, as if they had forgotten the cold for a while, and their fearless eyes shot at the oncoming blizzard.

Everyone knows that the famous Xiliang Tie has arrived.
