Chapter 47: The Battle of Qishui
It is said that the battle of the Liangguo Qingji coalition army against Xuzhou was the prince's supervising army. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
But Ma Qing didn't think so, he came to the battlefield to make a contribution. Although he had never been involved in any war, the old men in the family were all about war.
The Ma people have a belligerent factor in their blood.
The iron triangle of the three brothers is also missing, and Jiang Wei is valued by Cheng Li and handles official documents in the Prime Minister's Mansion all day long, and embarks on the road of the ruling minister. And he and Dong Yu led the two people's pro-army to the battlefield.
"Brother, in the past, we always felt that the old man in the family was more cowardly than the other, but now that we are on the battlefield, I don't think it's like that." Dong Yu stretched a pair of big feet to hang aside, and in the distance, two personal soldiers were carefully wiping the iron shoes that were wet when crossing the river. Scratching the back of his neck that was a little itchy, he said: "I heard that my father will be a subordinate of the Yuan family, and he finally became a small soldier and horse, and after fighting with the Qiang people, he fought with the Han people......
"Okay, the elders of my own family have been talking endlessly, and their ears are calloused, so don't talk about it." Ma Qing waved his hand, lay on the ground with his arms on his pillow, looked at the black top of the military tent and sighed before he said with emotion: "It's really different......"
Ma Qing has a lot of things on his mind now, an hour ago he had just finished the first battle he had experienced in this life...... With Dong Yu's commander, the two pro-troops made a detour to the rear of the Xuzhou army, broke through to the center of the enemy army, broke the archer line that was retreating to the rear, and laid a small victory.
Since he was a child, he had been exposed to so many things about war that he had long regarded combat as a daily routine, and never thought that the word was originally very heavy.
Arrows flew in the ears, robes fell beside him, and the enemy army was bursting with guns...... All these pictures, which were originally only in the story, are really shown in his life.
Cold and unforgiving.
It's not like his uncle's tales of heroism and capture the flag, his mind is dizzy and his breath is heavy, the truth is that he has no idea at all but charge, and he can't tell his army how to defend themselves in the melee.
Thanks to the five hundred horses that Ma Yu exchanged for him, with the same armament, his personal soldiers only fell more than 30 horses, but the elite on Dong Yu's side suffered more than 100 casualties.
I know that a lot of times it is the same thing as hearsay, and even if I study in the best academy in the world for six years, I can't beat the enemy's swords, guns, and spears.
In the past, these young people took the life and death of the old people too lightly.
"I heard the second uncle say that thirty years ago, the world belonged to the emperor, and the next three or five years the world belonged to Zhang Jiao and Han Sui, and then it became Yuan's...... At that time, your father and my father were just pawns. Ma Qing pillowed his arm, and under his arm was the Great Liang Arc Knife that had been sheathed, and said with great admiration: "Ma Qianjun, just like them." β
Ma Qing, who had always been above the top, suddenly felt a little pity, but he didn't know very well what it was.
It was probably because he wanted to really take a look at the fights of his father Ma Yue, who was out of the ordinary...... How heroic? What a glorious battle that was won or lost.
"All of them are ancient, and the current emperor is still your father's protΓ©gΓ©, haha! My father said that since the first time the Liangzhou Army went out of Longguan to fight, the world has entered the Ma Yue era. Dong Yu was extremely optimistic about the future situation of Liangguo, and sneered with his feet crossed: "If Sun Jian had been born in Sanfu, he would have been destroyed by your father a long time ago, mainly to blame the pattern of the world rather than Sun Jian being too strong...... General Yuan was unlucky and ran into Liangzhou at that time, otherwise who could force him to hate? β
Ma Qing sat up suddenly, opened his mouth but didn't speak, which frightened the leisurely Dong Yu, and hurriedly asked him, "What's wrong with my brother?" β
"It's nothing, I just think, I think it's ......" Ma Qing said with a bitter face: "The weight on my shoulders is so big." β
My father worked hard for half his life and changed his fate...... How many people in Liangzhou have a higher starting point than their father? Uncle Cheng used to be in charge of a tribe of thousands of people, and now he can only manage the soldiers and horses of four or five counties, and the tribe is ten times larger than before. In the past, the four surnames of Hanyang, when they were older, went against their father's old brothers, and helped the kingdom burn down the ancestral house of the family, arrogant to the end, but now they are just three declining surnames, and the Yan family was directly removed by Uncle Ma's fire.
My father was poor and white, and only my uncle was around to help, and he walked outside the state gate at the same age as he is now, and he guarded Xiao Pass and Luoyang as an official to quell the chaos everywhere, and now the land of nine thousand miles from east to west is in his hands, and hundreds of thousands of sons and daughters obey the order...... As the eldest son, as long as he does not die in the future, he will inherit the throne no matter what, not to mention conquering a bigger world, how can he defend these lands in the face of such strong enemies?
"What's not heavy? The old man on the back road will definitely arrange it for us, and we will just do it as a son. Dong Yu said and laughed, groped around the couch, took out a small bottle and said to Ma Qing: "Hehe, I also brought a pot of good wine when I came, how about it, let's drink it at night?" β
"No way!" Ma Qing looked at the pot of wine and replied categorically, waved his hand and said: "Alcohol is not allowed in the army, this is an iron law......" said and softened again, "When I go back to Longdu, call a few brothers and uncle's brothers, as well as all our pro-soldiers, let's drink outside Longdu for three days!" β
Just when these two noble sons of the Liang Kingdom made the decision to feast in Longdu, there was a sudden commotion outside the tent, the sound of war drums, the sound of bull horns, and the neighing of people and horses broke out in an instant.
In the sound of the collision of iron shoes, Ma Qing's personal soldier Junhou quickly opened the curtain and shouted urgently: "King Xiaoliang, Major General, the enemy army raided the camp, under the banner of Chen, most of them were Guangling Chen Qi's men and horses!" β
Ma Qing couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, the station of their troops and horses was located north of Kaiyang, which was already in the back position of the Chinese army, so he hurriedly turned over and stood up and asked, "General Xu is defeated?" Otherwise, how could the enemy have touched here! Beat the drums and gather troops to kill them! β
"The subordinates are gathering troops, and the soldiers and horses are already guarding the camp gate, ah!" As the military marquis was talking, there was a volley of arrows behind him, and a stray arrow shot into the armor behind him, and the general Hou staggered suddenly, hurriedly retreated into the tent and said: "The enemy army is several times larger than me, but I am afraid that I will not be able to rush out, will I wait for the formation to defend or protect you to break out first?" β
There are only more than 1,000 people in the battalion, several times more than himself, indicating that there are at least 35,000 men and horses on the banner, Ma Qing suddenly heard such a difference in strength, and his heart was panicked, and he was short of breath and didn't know what to say, but when he heard the breakthrough behind, he couldn't help asking: "Breakthrough?" β
"Brother, it's just running for your life!"
"Run away!" Ma Qing reacted suddenly, drew his knife and shouted angrily: "They surrounded Lao Tzu's camp to kill Lao Tzu's people, and now they still want Lao Tzu to escape with his tail between his legs?" Bah! β
Holding a knife and dragging the military marquis, Ma Qing picked up a shield from the tent door, walked out of the military tent, braved the rain of arrows like locusts, and shouted angrily: "Brothers, take out the majesty of your generals who follow the horses to play and set foot on the twenty-seven countries, defend the camp for me, and kill them all!" β
In this endangered situation, both Ma Qing and Dong Yu were mentally brave and brave than anyone else.
Because they are facing not only survival pressure, but also a certain degree of blood pressure.
They are the sons of generals, where do they dare to run away on the battlefield?
Ma Qing's legs were weak, but he still rushed into the camp with a knife in the rain of arrows; Dong blunt's feet were still bare, but he also followed Ma Qing out with his neck stalked.
Want to drink? Let's live it!
Like a rain of locust arrows, Ma Qing rushed out of the camp tent and saw the dismounted cavalry covering the camp gate fifty steps away was desperately resisting by relying on the deer, but the enemy was obviously prepared, not only blocking the camp gate with heavy troops, but also people on the wooden fence around the camp were setting up wooden supports outside, and the archers were stepping on it to hit the battalion.
This method is only used when besieging a camp that cannot be captured for a long time with heavy troops, otherwise there is not enough time to build fortifications...... The enemy's commander is very accurate in judging the battle situation.
Although small in number, the Covered Army was very well armed, and in addition to the 1,000 personal guards of the two men, there were 500 horsemen, who were responsible for pulling the heavy horses of the Covered Army on the march.
The high combat effectiveness of King Liang's armor is also the reason why Ma Qing dares to defend the camp.
"Ah Dut, you lead people to defend the north gate, you don't have to go into battle in person, but you have to boost morale!" Ma Qing raised his sword in one hand and protected him with a shield in the other, and shouted to his military marquis: "You go with me to the south gate and defend the enemy!" β
The prince of Liang and the son of the most powerful general of Liang Guo supervised the battle, which greatly boosted the morale of these Liang generals who worshipped the king of Liang as a god, and the shouts of killing rose up, and the armored army at the gate of the camp actually relied on the courage of the moment to push the enemy back more than ten steps, and the military marquis hurriedly stopped and shouted to stabilize the formation.
As he walked, Ma Qing observed the direction and tactics of the enemy's attack, and loudly ordered a small number of soldiers with bows and crossbows to organize a defensive line inside the camp gate and shoot at the enemy archers who climbed the wooden fence...... The armored army that relied on the camp gate to defend the deer was wearing the heavy armor of the Liang Kingdom with good protection, and those soldiers equipped with the standard equipment of the Han army were difficult to break through their defense line despite their bravery, and the heavy armor army caused continuous casualties to the enemy standing outside the wall with a strong crossbow and strong bow.
As long as you kill them, this battle will still be fought!
Ma Qing stuck his beloved Liang Guo arc knife diagonally into the ground, and held a Liang Guo soldier's standard hard bow to stand in the archer array, and one hundred and ten warriors who had followed the horse to play rampant in the Western Regions and Ma Qing shot at the enemy army with their heads exposed at the head of the wooden fence wall, although there were not many arrows, and the strong bow power of the Liang Kingdom's heavy bow also caused the shooting frequency to be not fast, but these soldiers who had been in battle for a long time and trained hard shot very accurately.
Three arrows will defeat two enemies!
"Brothers, this battle will be written directly by King Liang, and the battle of Qishui will be written by the historians of Liangguo, and they are all heroes, repel them!"
