Chapter Ninety-Three: Ma Chao Kills the General
Heshou's subordinates are not nobodies, and regardless of the size of the regime, he is no different from Ma Yue, who is in and out of the prime minister.
Song established the country as the head of the river and placed hundreds of officials, which was Song Jian's henchman, and he was also outstanding in Wen Taowu. In that year, the rebels were in civil strife, and they had led 700 cavalry to protect the Song brothers in the melee in Jincheng to kill a bloody road, and were pursued by thousands of cavalry to Heguan, leading 300 cavalry to counterattack the enemy formation, and more than 100 enemy troops were invincible, and the mountain village blocked the pursuit of the enemy army for 35 days, and was called the crown of the warriors of the river head. Later, the head of the river was the prime minister of the river, and at the beginning of his tenure, the governor of the hundred officials built a lot of construction in the head of the river, led the people to build ditches, explore pastures, and made the head of the river prosperous in a few years.
If it weren't for the crisis of the situation, as talented as he had been, Song Jian would never send him to the front of the battle to fight with others. Just because I didn't expect Ma Yue, a young general known as the major general of Liangzhou, to be so brave, I thought that Ma Chao was just a good boy who would only burn villages and slaughter the people with a great name.
The morale of the army is scattered, and they are still fighting fart!
Song Jian wanted to defeat Ma Yue in all aspects and teach him to lose convincingly, only in this way could he quickly receive Ma Yue's territory, and not have to waste time in the endless rebellion and crisis after receiving the territory, and be able to directly face the possible attack of Han Sui and the inevitable counterinsurgency of the Eastern Han Dynasty, which are the best choices.
Song Jian's heart was also raised with the battle between the two on the battlefield. He is not like Ma Yue, he can never fail without any support, he can only move forward to seek survival in the cracks of Liangzhou after years of war, he knows that as long as he loses, it will be over. So he is more cautious than Ma Yue in facing every battle, he has won so many difficult battles, this time should not be an exception, I, Song Jian, will definitely win.
Certain!
On the battlefield under the watchful eye, Ma Chao raised his long front and walked around the horse in half a circle, with his back to Song Jian's horse, staring closely at the lonely Hu knight a hundred steps away, although he had never heard anyone say that he had been named the general of the river head at this time, but the moment of the battle had already made his heart that was restless because of the enemy general being cold, and the faint pain of the tiger's mouth always reminded him that this Hu man was not easy to deal with.
Since the age of sixteen, Ma Chao followed his father Ma Teng to fight against thieves and fought dozens of battles, and the opponents he experienced met on the battlefield only one end, and the head of the person who blocked him was in a different place, and the defender of the city was destroyed.
This Hu man is the first time he has encountered an opponent of equal strength.
The stalemate between the two made the Ma army shout and slacken, Ma Chao secretly said that it was not good, and took the lead in breaking the deadlock and rushed up with a spear, the iron armor that had been down in the sunlight was very dazzling, and the sharp long-handled ring knife flashed with cold light, Ma Chao Although he was young, he had a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers, although the opponent was slightly stronger than him in martial arts, but Ma Chao was also not a local chicken and a dog, an iron spear wheel smashed and picked thorns, and for a time it was pressed down to the point that he could not fight back.
"The major general is mighty!"
"Long live the Great Han!"
This time, the wrong horse lasted for half a pillar of incense, the two sides came and went, Ma Chao's previous momentum was steadily suppressed, and he even flew out with a spear on the top of his head, and he was only a little short of assassinating him. However, it has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he hit the horse and ran to the formation, Ma Chao did not spare people, chased after him fiercely, and smashed a spear on the right shoulder, and the powerful mixed iron spear smashed down the shoulder armor, where Ma Chao's huge force was a little iron armor piece that could be blocked, and when he landed on his shoulder, he was a blur of flesh and blood.
Ma Chao's gaze crossed the down, looked at the Song Jianjun formation a hundred steps away, his cold gaze stayed on the face of Song Jian who was looking across the horse for a moment, his body had already driven the horse to the side of the lower body, only half of the horse's body was behind, his hands held the iron spear above his head, and with a roar in his throat, he slammed the iron spear in his palm to the back of the heart.
Ma Chao, who grew up in a cool place, never knew the word compassion on the battlefield, nor did he know what love for talent. Ma Chao's spear is to teach such a rebel general who opposed his uncle to die on the spot!
At the moment when the iron spear was added to the body and was about to die, it was as if he had eyes on his back, and his right hand pressed down his body while swinging the knife, Ma Chao used all his strength to pounce on a spear, and then his eyes suddenly widened, he saw that the lower ring knife was waved on the right side of his body, and his left arm then slashed over, and his body twisted and pressed to the side, and his left hand held the ring knife and swung towards him!
Suddenly, all the cold hairs on Ma Chao's back exploded, and his spear, which had been exhausted, was still wearing in the hair that had been scattered under his cape, what could he use to block this strange knife?
In a hurry, Ma Chao had to knock the horse's leg with his feet, and the horse man under the crotch stood up and stopped the momentum, which made the blade pass by by a fraction of a second, and watched the enemy general drag the knife away with an almost half-crippled shoulder.
Then, when the horse's front hooves landed again, Ma Chao felt his lower back sink, and then he heard the horse's wail and fell off the horse, rolling on the spot to avoid the risk of the horse's body falling and pressing on his body.
The dust was agitated, and the people in the outer army formation could only see the iron spear that had dodged Ma Chao when they were pursuing, and then turned around and ordered Ma Chao to stop the horse, and then even the people and horses fell to the ground, and then they were covered by the wild sand rolled up by the gale, and no one could see whether Ma Chao was dead or alive!
The sound of the sonic drums that shook the sky was sudden, the shirtless Ma Zong didn't say a word, left the two drumsticks, drew out the ring knife and ran out of the horse and galloped towards the front of the formation, Guan Yu changed his face at the moment when he had dragged the knife, patted the horse and rushed into the battlefield, the rest of the generals were all average, Ma Yue threw the horsewhip mount and spread the hooves and galloped towards the front of the formation, turned around and waved his arm to give the formation order, Lin Lijing immediately gave the order, the middle sergeant and pawn split like a tide, the front army foot archers slowly advanced forward, and the left and right flank cavalry advanced first, Several generals followed the main duke, and behind them was the elite horse army led by Guo Yan Xing, which was a mixture of the Flying Bear Army and the Armored Army, and also followed the commander at full speed at this time.
The order to change the formation to advance was issued in place in a few breaths, and the entire front of the formation was split, revealing the elite iron cavalry hidden in the formation, like a hideous giant beast with a bloody mouth. When the cavalry on both sides saw the banner, it would be a moment in the evening, and the herald's shouting would be delayed
Song Jian was blinded by Ma Yue's actions, although he was also blocked by Ma Chao's view of the dust overturned by the mount, but he could guess that he had gained a slight advantage from looking at the situation, and the young general named Ma Mengqi had fallen from his horse. Normally, the end of the fight is to wave the army to cover up and kill, which is good, but that is the winning side, how can Ma Yue be so reckless and brave and courageous, and when he sees that the brave general is lost, the whole army will be pressed?
Song Jian is complaining that Ma Yue is too rogue, because the situation of the fighting generals is changing rapidly, Fang Cai has been picked up first, and then his shoulder is seriously injured, and the horse is about to run back to the military formation, where can Song Jian still think of waving the army to cover up the killing, and immediately ordered to send several brave generals to ride forward to meet the order, and at the same time ordered the army to prepare to retreat.
Therefore, although the enemy's fierce general had fallen at this time, Song Jian could no longer order the whole army to charge against Ma Yue.
Seven cavalry brave generals have supervised the hundred cavalry to grab the down, the Chinese army has slowly retreated, the flank only listened to the order, if at this time to change the order of the whole army to charge will cause the Chinese army to advance the flank retreat, although his strength is twice that of Ma Yue, but if the Chinese army and the flank are broken into three, he does not dare to hedge with the momentum of the Han army!
What's more, at this time, the military Bi in the forward rush was blocked by the hundred cavalry that had been snatched down, and the momentum was swallowed up and divided by the torrent of iron cavalry on the opposite side.
Between the lightning and flint, Song Jian could only secretly drink hatred, blaming Ma Yue for missing the opportunity this time.
Ma Yue led the crowd from the horse to the small steps to start galloping slowly, and in the process of accelerating, he saw the dust of the battlefield in front of him disperse with a gust of wind, and the figure of Ma Chao stood up with a spear in the blur, and a spear close to the foot was behind him, bowing his body to make the appearance of wanting to attack, but his left arm raised his hand and turned his back to the formation, facing the number of brave generals sent by Song Jian dozens of steps away.
As if hearing the hooves of his own cavalry behind him, Ma Yue heard Ma Chao shouting.
"Don't come here! Everyone, don't come forward! Ma Chao fell off the horse, his long hair fluttered in the wind, and the horizontal spear was facing several brave riders under the command of Song Jian, who was galloping, and shouted angrily: "No one has to come up, I Ma Mengqi can be alone, and one person can overturn them all!" ”
Guan Yu stopped at a distance of thirty steps from Ma Chao, looking at this young Liangzhou major general who left no room for boxing, he saw that the child had grown into a real martial artist, and his figure without hesitation seemed to shine with a thousand lights. Guan Yu didn't know whether to help Ma Chao now or just fulfill him.
Guan Yu couldn't hear the sound of horses' hooves galloping behind him, he saw Ma Yue supervising most of the Chinese army riders stationed on the spot, and the entire army formation was ready to charge but stopped on the spot, the formation maintained a semi-encircled shape, watching them fight in a battle formation, and the young general who watched them fight and kill five horsemen in a row let out a one-to-many shout. Ma Yue looked at Ma Chao's figure and whispered an order, the war drums sounded again, the flag was waved left and right, and for a time on the battlefield, only the footsteps of the soldiers and horses adjusting the formation and the uneasy sound of the horses stopping.
Ma Zong was shirtless in front of the battle, and watched Ma Chao run against the enemy horse, and shouted with all his strength: "Big nephew, kill the enemy general!" ”
There was no need for Ma Zong to say more, Ma Chao raised his head and ran quickly against the galloping war horse, and the dust brought up by the soles of his feet was not weaker than the horse opposite, only to hear him shout while running: "Enemy general!" ”
Before the words fell, the enemy cavalry had rushed to the front, and the brave general immediately stabbed at Ma Chao with a spear, and there were six horsemen galloping behind him, each with a fierce face, not only to save the defeated one, but also to slash the martial horse Chao on the spot.
At the last moment, Ma Chao's galloping body suddenly jumped sideways to dodge a shot, the iron spear swept off the front hooves of the enemy horse, the force was not exhausted and suddenly retreated, the iron spear was diagonally inserted on the yellow sand, and the face was a horse hit the spearhead, even the man and the horse penetrated on the iron spear, the horse walked two steps quickly and rolled on the ground to avoid a horse slash, and threw out the weapon left behind by the dead enemy.
“…… Raised by my Ma Meng! ”
The voice never stopped, Ma Chaofei kicked on the horse on the horse, jumped up and fell the galloping horse, holding the pocket of the enemy rider with both hands and slammed it to the ground, and in the blink of an eye, he killed another horse.
Panting and pulling out the mixed iron spear, looking at the three horsemen who were left to run away from the desert, Ma Chao raised his hand and gathered the scattered pigtails, and roared with the spear: "The enemy will be beheaded by my Ma Mengqi!" Assault of the whole army! ”
Liangzhou Ma Mengqi, Rongqiu beheaded nine generals!
