Chapter 120: Soldiers Descend on the City
Fighting for the world has never been a game, and on the back of these four words is the bloody world. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
In the common people, even those who are eager to win the championship are difficult to resist the unkindness of fate.
At this point, does hatred still matter?
Even if there is a grudge, Cao Cao doesn't know who to go to. His eldest son Cao Ang died, so should he kill Ma Yue, the commander of the entire Liang Kingdom, or Ma Dai, who led the army, or should he kill the specific executioner?
After all, it is all a confused account, and personal life and death are not worth the same as the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty.
He has so much hatred, but how many soldiers in the imperial court soldiers and horses died without a father and brother under the iron hooves of the people of Liangguo? How many Liangzhou Iron Cavalry brothers who did not have a robe were added by the imperial court ring knife?
There are no fairy tales in this world, no one can get good results without hard work, and even after so many people have given their whole or even their own lives, they still can't get good results, is this fair?
Fair of course!
Because some people give more, the premise of fairness and reasonableness in this world is that hard work may not have results...... It doesn't care whether the people who work hard have results or not, because that's the job of luck, and the world is only responsible for reinventing those who don't work hard.
Half is fate, half luck.
People's lives have to be fought by themselves, but luck really needs to be decided by God.
Just like the saying that spreads in every village in Liangzhou, there is always luck in heaven, and people in Liangzhou must believe in heaven.
At noon on the second day, the large formations of the two armies of Cao Ma each advanced three miles, advancing the front line until the front armies of both sides could see each other's flags.
Ma Yue's army far surpassed Cao Cao's soldiers and horses, and when the Liangguo army marched forward with the order, Cao Cao could only do everything possible to keep changing the formation.
Ma Yue's army was divided into five formations, he was in the middle of the front army, that is, the front formation facing Cao Cao's soldiers and horses, and to his left was the Xiliang large array composed of tens of thousands of Qiang soldiers, and the commander of that formation was Jincheng Han Sui. On the right, there is the military formation belonging to his most outstanding nephew, Ma Dai Ma Bozhan.
The military formation of Han Sui and Ma Dai was like Ma Yue's left and right flanks, like the two giant Ao of a scorpion, reaching out far away to surround Cao Cao's soldiers and horses on three sides.
And behind Cao Cao, is Luoyang City.
Cao Cao's army was outnumbered, and could only lean on the outside of the west gate of Luoyang in a huge semi-ring shape, with the outermost sergeants holding huge shields and spears, and behind them were sword and axe hands, but the formation after this was extremely loose.
Because that was the position of Cao Cao's tiger and leopard riding.
The commander of the tiger and leopard cavalry has always been Cao Chun, who was once the Huangmen squire of the first emperor, but now he has become a close general of the Cao family.
Only this time, the 16,000 Haws and Leopards were no longer under their command, but were assigned to the commanders.
Cao's army only has 100,000 soldiers and horses, and these soldiers and horses are enough to be commanded by Cao Cao, and there is no need for so many generals...... How many generals did he have? Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Cao Shuang, Cao Xiu, Cao Chun, Cao Zhang, Zhang He, Yu Ban, Le Jin, Xia Hou's family is also full of loyalty, plus Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, and Ji Ling under Liu Bei.
Fierce generals!
And now, these thunderous generals are hiding in the military formation with a thousand-man team of tigers and leopards.
As the saying goes, the law of war is to win with the right match.
This large array of strict formations is Cao Cao's Zheng, and the tiger and leopard cavalry led by more than ten battlefield generals is Cao Cao's Zheng.
Now that the enemy army has been overwhelmed, Cao Cao, who is under Luoyang City, has no danger to rely on, if this one is defeated, he will have to withdraw directly into Luoyang City.
The outcome of this war was actually not very important to Cao Cao at this time.
After meeting Ma Yue yesterday, he thought very clearly, it didn't seem to matter who would rule the huge empire in the future...... Why did Ma Yue call themselves Liangguo after conquering so many states? Because they live better, better than under the Han flag.
A bigger territory, a richer life, a greater military might, and a more human-like ruler.
If he wins, the Liang King of Rongma's half-life will get the nickname, which is of course a good thing, and the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty will be preserved by himself, and it is possible that he will prosper.
If he loses, the Doomsday Dynasty will cease to exist, but the world will live a better life.
It's all good results.
It's all ...... What a result!
But he must fight this one, he is Hanchen, and the Han family does not live up to him.
Cao Mengde, the eunuch is ugly, the people of the world have never treated him well, he can bear anyone in the world, but he ...... Can't live up to the world!
Do people also have cheap ones?
"Beat the drums, wait for battle!"
The flags were waved, and the thunderous war drums and military music were played, and the drums beat fast and urgently, just like the steps of the Liangguo army to move forward.
Ma Yue stood on the railing of the chariot in the army, pointed forward, and Yang Aruo, who was riding the horse behind him, rode out silently, and drew the Zhongxing sword given by the emperor before standing and the battle, and swung it forward.
No one made a sound, and tens of thousands of people stepped forward in unison.
"Boom!"
Closed on three sides, slowly pressed on...... This is like the ten-sided ambush that Gaozu besieged the overlord Hai.
This was not a close battle at all, hundreds of thousands of people were 100,000 horses on the outskirts of Luoyang City...... Five against ten, if all are good enough, they may win; 100 against 1,000 may win, but 100,000 against 400,000, can you win?
The entire battlefield was filled with the people of Liangguo, and the soldiers of Cao Ying could not even use the tactics used for ambush, concealment, and surprise soldiers.
Everywhere is the enemy, where else can they be ambushed?
Even the grass and trees have been trampled off, where else can they go?
Cao Cao smiled bitterly and continued to ride his horse in the formation to make his subordinates stabilize their positions.
On the city wall of Luoyang, the emperor led hundreds of officials to look westward, their faces were white, and a few of the only remaining old ministers of the first emperor looked at the Liangguo army array, looking at the sky and closing their eyes.
In fact, the impression of Ma Yue in these people's hearts is still stuck in the end of thirty years ago, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Ma Yue stood behind the first emperor with a halberd, and his body was as powerful and vicious as a god...... It's just that at that time, with such a low official rank and background, who would be the main one to him?
Later, it was not their turn to be unthinkable, everyone wanted to stay away from this guy, and at that time people said that they really shouldn't let a low-born person be in power, he didn't understand the rules of the court at all!
So he was squeezed out and returned to a wild place in Liangzhou, accompanied by the Yellow Sand Desert.
Today, do they remember?
Do they regret it?
Ma Dai rode out of his horse, smacked his horse in front of the two armies, pointed at the Cao battalion general provocatively with a spear in one hand and a defiantly pointed at the general, tilting his head and whistling.
The 20,000 foot soldiers on the right side opened as if splitting water, and the 10,000 strong crossbowmen opened their strings and ran forward.
Ma Dai had a happy smile on his face, when this battle was won, if he could, he would give King Ming Liang and demolish this dog's Luoyang City!
Many times people think that with their own prestige and fame, their children and grandchildren will not be harmed elsewhere.
In fact, people never thought that sometimes because of the prestige of their elders, children will be determined to inherit the glory of their ancestors and never bow their heads in places far from home.
And then take more damage than the average person.
Ma Dai didn't like the feeling that Luoyang gave him, even though the city had allowed him to grow up.
But it also made him feel like an orphan, the empty auxiliary general's mansion, so many springs, summers, autumns and winters, and the feelings of orphans were earlier than in the sixteen years of Jian'an.
On this road to hegemony, how much has Ma paid?
Just like Ma Yue thought, just like Ma Zong once said Ma Yue.
A Ma clan, standing alone in Luoyang City against the world.
A Ma clan stood alone in front of the Luoyang camp and endured cold arrows.
A Ma clan, alone rushed to the Tongguan camp and suffered the sword.
But now, a Ma clan, with tens of thousands of Ma Shi standing behind him, pulling a bow and crossbow...... Do you see?
In this city, Ma Dai's younger brother was killed, and this arrow was released for Ma Xiu.
Ma Dai pointed his right hand at the sky, and then swung it out violently on his horse.
With the sound of thousands of strong crossbows collapsing, crossbow arrows ...... Cover the sky!
Twenty-eight years ago, Han Yue left this city, dissatisfied with the Han Dynasty's disregard for Liangzhou, and from then on, he went west, vowing that if he was alone, he would never return to this city full of Han glory.
That year, he took one last look back at the bustling city, and walked through Tongguan without looking back.
Since then, there has been no Han covenant in the world, only Xiqiang anti-thief Han Sui.
He once loved this empire very much, but he could make people change, so that he rebelled for 30 years in the second half of his life to add bricks and tiles to the cause of overthrowing the Han Dynasty.
How do you know that now he is back, with thousands of troops.
"March, one to attack the city, one to attack the right flank of the Cao army, go my boys, the Han Dynasty will be destroyed in this dynasty!"
The Qiang people let out a deafening whistle, and in the terrifying strange screams, those Qiang horses wearing iron armor galloped wildly, and the dust rolled up was terrifying.
Ma Yue hadn't looked at this city carefully for many years, how much did he miss it?
He once confronted a scholar on the Xuanwu Road and endured the addition of a sword.
I also had a hangover in the attic of Liangfu, watching the eaves and teeth peck high all night.
He even walked through the long streets of Luoyang with the guqin on his back after drinking, standing at the head of the city and playing the strings all night.
This city has too many memories for him, he has slept in the palace and also in the Huangmen Temple Prison.
When he raised his eyes to look at the city, in those unclear faces, he wanted to search for the figure of the little emperor...... But he hadn't seen the little emperor for too long, and he couldn't remember what he looked like at all.
"Attack, attack, attack." Ma Yue's hand slapped three times on the wheel, his fingers crossed Cao Cao's stacked array, pointed to the west gate of Luoyang City, and shouted: "Attack it!" ”
At this time, how to fight and who to fight are already only issues for the following generals to consider, and there are actually only two things that His Royal Highness King Liang needs to consider.
If you don't fight, where to fight!
Ma Yue decided, fight, and fight towards the city gate of Luoyang!
The canisters of fire oil blasted out of the catapults whistled out with flames whistling out of their heads, smashing towards Cao Cao's military formation.
