Chapter 888 [Fierce Battle]
"I want to see King Yan!" Dian Wei was already tired and sweating, his flesh and blood body could not break through the encirclement of this hundred heavily armed elite soldiers, just knocked down one, and the other rushed up, not because he was incompetent, but because his fists could not break the steel armor at all, even if the soldiers fell, they would not be able to cause much damage, and they could fight again if they got up.
"General Dian, save your strength, my lord will not see you. However, don't worry, my lord said that when he saw you, he let you go, so please bear with me for a while. Wen Chou shouted at Dian Wei, who was trapped in the heart of the camp.
Dian Wei looked around, no longer silent, and when he regained his strength, he suddenly exerted his strength, ran forward quickly, and when he was about to approach a soldier in the front row, he suddenly jumped up, soared into the air, and rolled a few times in the air, as soon as he landed, a hundred soldiers immediately rushed over from all directions, and did not attack, but simply trapped him.
"You ...... What do you want me to do? Dian Wei was completely speechless, he had tried all the methods he could think of, and as soon as he moved, the hundred soldiers followed him and besieged him again.
He was very impressed by the body of these hundred soldiers, wearing heavy armor, and being able to run so fast and react so sensitively.
He was about to be driven crazy, sat on the ground, gasped for breath, and after a while, he said to Wen Chou: "I'm hungry......"
After hearing this, Wen Chou laughed and said: "General Dian, this is good, this camp is specially set up for you, and there are five hundred such heavily armed soldiers in the barracks, who take turns watching you every day." You just give up the plan to escape, wait here quietly, as soon as the time comes, my lord's guild will take the initiative to release you. โ
Dian Wei sneered and didn't make any answer, in his opinion. Only when you have eaten enough can you have the strength to try other methods.
"Cook for General Dian!" As soon as Wen Chou's voice fell, he left here, leaving a personal entourage to take care of Dian Wei.
When Wen Chou returned to the Chinese army, he happened to meet Lin Nan coming back with the soldiers, and when he saw Lin Nan's disgraced face, most of the rest of the soldiers were covered with blood, his brows furrowed, and he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "My lord." What's going on? โ
Lin Nan jumped off the horse, tore off the cloak he was wearing, and threw it directly to Wen Chou, with his hands behind his back, his brows tightly locked, and walked into the camp without saying a word.
It was the first time for Wen Chou to see Lin Nan so silent, and he was puzzled, and glanced at Wei Yan, Pang De, Chen Dao, and Guan Hai, the four generals who came back with Lin Nan. asked, "Four generals, what's wrong with the lord?" โ
Wei Yan, Pang De, and Guan Hai looked at each other for a while. He just shook his head vigorously, didn't say anything, and began to return to the camp with his subordinates, while Chen Zhi, who was close to Wen Chou, turned over and dismounted, hugged his fists at Wen Chou and said, "General Wen, the lord has an order." All the generals and colonels of the five battalions were summoned to the big tent of the Chinese army to discuss matters, and General Wen was also asked to convey the other four battalions on his behalf. โ
Since the Yan army crossed the Yellow River, the 100,000 soldiers and horses have been divided into five battalions, each with 10,000 cavalry. They were handed over to the five tiger generals. When he went to see the Son of Heaven today, Lin Nan only used 3,000 cavalry from the Chinese army battalion, and the other four battalions of soldiers and horses stayed in the garrison to guard the camp.
On the way to meet the Son of Heaven, Lin Nan left 2,000 of the cavalry in the dense forest just in case, and he only took Wei Yan, Pang De, Chen Dao, Guan Hai and 1,000 cavalry.
After Wen Chou heard Chen Dao's words, he felt the severity of the situation, since crossing the Yellow River, Lin Nan had never convened all the generals and schools. Without saying a word, he immediately ordered someone to pass the order, and at the same time ordered someone to arrange the periphery of the Chinese army's big tent.
Half an hour later, there were more than 100 officials above the rank of captain of the Yan military academy gathered in the camp of the Chinese army, everyone stood neatly in the open space in front of the big tent of the Chinese army, Lin Nanduan sat on a temporary point general platform, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Tai Shici, Gan Ning, Wen Chou, the five tiger generals sat in the first column, Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Wei Yan, Pang De, Chen Dao, Wen Ping, Chu Yan, Lu Heng, Wu Lideng, and Badun Ten people who were ranked in the eighteen hussars sat in the second column, and the rest of the generals' troops, And all the military captains stood behind these fifteen people, Xun You, Guo Jia, Xu You, and Sima Lang stood behind Lin Nan, and the infantry cavalry lined up in turn, and the lineup was unprecedentedly strong.
Lin Nan sat on the platform, looked around, and immediately said aloud: "Now Ma Teng, Ma Chao's father and son are bullying today's son who is young and ignorant, playing with the authority of the Han Dynasty, and wanting to usurp the throne. Therefore, I decided to issue a document calling on all the heroes of the world to jointly crusade against the national thieves and welcome back the Son of Heaven in order to return my Han Dynasty. โ
"Mighty! Mighty! Mighty! All the soldiers in the audience cheered, raised their weapons in their hands, and shouted loudly.
"Where is Chen Kongzhang?" Lin Nan stood up and shouted loudly.
When Chen Lin heard Lin Nan shouting at him, he hurriedly ran up from the back of the general's platform, bowed and bowed, "What does the lord command?" โ
"Immediately draft a proclamation, calling on all the heroes of the world to jointly crusade against Ma Teng's father and son, vowing to recapture the Son of Heaven and uphold the dynasty!"
"No!"
As soon as the voice fell, Lin Nan's personal soldiers immediately took up the pen and ink that had been prepared, Chen Lin wrote hard in public, and in just a moment, he wrote more than 2,000 words in a free way, and read out in public: "Liang Wang Ma Teng, Qin King Ma Chao, his father and son are wolf bรจi for adultery, bewitching the Son of Heaven, and arbitrarily killing the ministers of the court......
Lin Nan listened to Chen Lin reading out the text, he only felt his heart surging when he listened, his fists clenched, and he couldn't wait to immediately punch Ma Teng and Ma Chao to death. He noticed that all the soldiers in the audience had a look of righteous indignation on their faces, and they were so angry that they didn't wait for Chen Lin to finish reading it, and immediately shouted loudly: "Get rid of the national thieves and return me to the ......."
He had to admire Chen Lin's writing, a simple one or two thousand words played a demagogic role, far better than what he said with his mouth. At the same time, he also admired Chen Lin's quick thinking, and he wrote an essay against Ma Teng and Ma Chao in such a short period of time, which was far sharper than the essay written by Ma Teng two years ago to crusade against him.
"Get rid of the thieves. Return my ...... to Chaogang"
Chen Lin was still reading, but his voice seemed to be inaudible, except for the overwhelming slogan of "Eliminate the national thieves and return my dynasty", there was no other sound in the wilderness.
Lin Nan walked to Chen Lin's side and said loudly, "Don't read it yet." It's already working. โ
Chen Lin was sweating profusely and had a dry mouth at this time, and after hearing Lin Nan's words, he stopped reading and slowly retreated.
Lin Nan raised his arms and motioned for all the soldiers to calm down, and only when there was silence did he shout: "Huang Zhong, Chen Dao, Chu Yan!" โ
"The last general!" Huang Zhong, Chen Dao, and Chu Yan stood up at the same time and replied together.
"Order you and the other three to lead the left battalion to ride 20,000 steps to the west, and approach the Tiger Pass. Along the way, they went forward in secret, and when they arrived outside the Tiger Prison, they gave me a book and waited for my orders. Huang Zhong is the main general, and Chen Zhi and Chu Yan are the deputy generals. โ
Huang Zhong, Chen Dao, and Chu Yan replied at the same time: "No! โ
"Gan Ning, Wen Ping, and Lu Heng, order the three of you to lead the 20,000 cavalry of the vanguard battalion to advance forward and set off at night. Thirty miles away from the Xiliang Soldier Battalion, he put more horses to reject, more horse pits, and more bows and crossbows. Be sure to set up a strong camp overnight! โ
"No!"
"Tai Shici, Wu Li Deng, Bao Dun, and you led the right battalion of 20,000 cavalry to the east for thirty miles, built a high wall, and blocked the road of the Wei army's westward advance, and you will also be stationed on the spot, if you encounter the Wei army. Don't have any scruples, shoot them all, and don't let one go. โ
"No!"
"Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Zhang He. You and the other three lead the rear camp to ride 20,000 steps, and act together with Gan Ning, Wen Ping, and Lu Heng tonight to cover them to set up a camp. If they encounter an enemy, they will flank them with the vanguard battalion. โ
"No!"
"Wen Chou, Wei Yan, Guan Hai, you and the other three will lead me to guard the Chinese army camp together."
"No!"
"Report-" A scout stretched out his voice and galloped quickly, with a small red flag planted behind the scout, and no one dared to stop him wherever he passed, no matter who it was, he made way for the scout to go straight to the open space outside the Chinese army's tent.
Lin Nan stood on the Dianjiang platform and watched it clearly, and saw a small red flag fluttering, and a cloud of smoke and dust rose from the place where he passed, so he hurriedly got off the Dianjiang platform, and shouted loudly: "Get out of the way!" โ
At the sound of an order, all the generals present got out of the way, only to see the scout gallop quickly to Lin Nan's side, reined in the horse, and the whole person almost fell off the horse, and after the horse stood firm, the scout rolled the saddle and dismounted, knelt on one knee on the ground, panting and clenched his fists and said: "Lord Qiqi, the Xiliang soldiers are suddenly coming, and they are fighting with the vanguard battalion, our army was caught off guard, and lost more than 1,000 soldiers on the board, and the thief captain Su Fei is leading the crowd to resist desperately......"
"Look, my lord, smoke is rising from the pioneer camp!" Wen Chou pointed in the direction of the front camp and shouted loudly.
"Report-" Another expedited scout with a small red flag behind his back galloped quickly in front of Lin Nan, and before he could get off his horse, he shouted loudly, "The left battalion was suddenly attacked by the Xiliang soldiers......
"Report-" Before everyone here could react, another expedited scout galloped quickly, and before the person could run to him, he shouted loudly, "Lord Qi, the right battalion was suddenly attacked by a large number of Xiliang soldiers......
At the same time, billowing smoke rose from the sky above the left and right battalions at the same time, and then three more scouts came one after another, respectively reporting the news of the fire in the front, left, and right battalions.
A series of bad news came, which caught everyone present a little off guard, but fortunately, these people were usually well-trained elite soldiers, and they were only slightly taken aback, and then immediately recovered and asked for their lives together: "Lord! We are willing to fight to the death with the Xiliang soldiers! โ
Lin Nan frowned, he never expected that the Xiliang soldiers would come so quickly.
"Lord, the Xiliang soldiers suddenly attacked the three large battalions of our army, it seems that it was premeditated, and now our army is already in a passive position, the combat effectiveness of the Xiliang soldiers is not inferior to our army, in this passive situation, if you fight hard, it will only increase the casualties, it is better to temporarily retreat for twenty miles, and after some rectification, you can fight with the Xiliang soldiers." Xun Yu hurriedly came to Lin Nan's side and said.
Lin Nan immediately made a decision, and said loudly: "The order goes down, the whole army retreats thirty miles, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, and Zhang He lead the rear battalion to ride 20,000 cavalry to cover the retreat of the army. Wen Chou, Wei Yan, Guan Hai. Each led a thousand cavalry of the Chinese army to rescue the front, left, and right battalions! โ
"No!"
As soon as the order was issued, Wen Chou, Wei Yan, and Guan Hai each went to order a thousand light cavalry to rush to the front camp, the left camp, and the right camp, and the rest of the generals scattered in a hurry, and went to the original camp with each other, and commanded their subordinates to retreat.
Lin Nan led the Chinese soldiers to evacuate backwards in the stars and the moon, while Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, and Zhang He returned to the rear camp for defense.
At this moment. In the vanguard camp of the Yan army, Ma Chao with three thousand veiled and iron-clad ghost cavalry was arbitrarily rushing left and right in the camp, and Su Fei, the captain of Xuanyi of the Yan army, was commanding the soldiers to resist, and the left and right sides of the vanguard camp were already on fire.
Su Fei led five hundred shield soldiers, and all the shields were in front of him, forming a solid wall, leaving a gap in the middle that could only allow two people to walk side by side, which was used to accept the soldiers who retreated in front of the wall, and behind them were a thousand archers who were constantly shooting.
"Killโkill me all. Not a single one to stay! Ma Chao held a blood-gold spear all over his body, the head of the spear was divided into three, like a burning flame, flexible and light, everywhere he went, the color of the gun and the enemy's blood fused together, and his eyes were full of anger when he was killed. There were still a few drops of blood hanging from his grinning mouth, and he was constantly screaming at his subordinates.
Su Fei saw Ma Chao's brave appearance. He couldn't help but feel a trace of fear in his heart, he had never seen such a person, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, calmed down, and shouted: "Anyone who retreats from the latter without permission will be killed!" โ
When the last person of the Yan army to retreat from the front of the village passed the temporary phalanx arranged by Su Fei. The entire phalanx formed a steel wall, relying on the gate of Yuanmen, blocked there, and the wooden fence near the gate was placed with a lot of horses and antlers to prevent the attack of the Xiliang soldiers. The crossbowmen hid behind the wooden fence and fired at the Xiliang soldiers in front, while the archers were behind the shield men, firing their bows and firing arrows into the dense crowd.
Ma Chao led the elite soldiers who were personally trained, because they often came and went without a trace, and with white cloaks and veils, they looked a bit like ghosts in the dark night, so they were called ghost troops.
There are not many ghost troops, only 30,000 people, but every soldier is like a real ghost, always rushing to the front when fighting, and he is obedient to Ma Chao's words.
As soon as Ma Chao gave the order, the ghost cavalry that rushed into the camp did not rush up, but gathered in the open space some distance away from the gate, standing far away from the crossbowman's range.
The ghost cavalry was neatly arranged in several rows, Ma Chao was already red, standing at the front of the line, and seeing that there were almost two thousand people gathered in the gate, he sneered and secretly shouted: "Don't measure yourself!" โ
As soon as the words fell, he took the lead and rushed over, and the ghost cavalry behind him grabbed the body of the spear in his hand and rushed over with Ma Chao.
"Attention! The enemy is coming, release the arrows! Su Fei saw a large number of cavalry rushing over under the leadership of Ma Chao, so he immediately shouted.
"Whoosh ......"
The crossbow arrows shot parallel to the front, specifically shooting the horses, while the archers' arrows went over their heads, and they fired indiscriminately, and with the cooperation of nearly a thousand crossbowmen, the ghost cavalry rushed to the front and immediately one or two hundred people and horses died under the random arrows, Rao was so, but it still did not block the way of the ghost cavalry.
As soon as the arrows were fired, the ghost cavalry rushed over, except for the crossbowmen with repeaters who could shoot quickly, the archers had basically lost their effectiveness, and they abandoned their bows and arrows one after another, picked up the repeating crossbow machine, and shot at the ghost cavalry.
Although the range of the repeating crossbow was short, it was quite powerful, and the small crossbow machine immediately erupted crossbow arrows like locusts, and shot down the horses under the seat of more than 200 ghost cavalrymen in parallel, causing more than 200 ghost cavalry to fall from their horses. However, these cavalrymen did not feel any fear, but rushed forward with impunity.
Ma Chao took the lead, first used the Earth Fire Xuanlu Gun in his hand to remove the arrow, and then took out a shuttle gun about half a meter long from the rucksack on the horse's back, and quickly threw it.
"Poof!"
With a muffled sound, the shuttle gun pierced directly into the throat of a soldier next to Su Fei, and the soldier didn't even have time to scream, a hard object was inserted in his neck, and he fell to the ground and died.
"Plug the gap!" Su Fei was also stunned, he didn't see how the shuttle gun was thrown at all, and blood splattered his face. It made the fear in his heart increase even more.
The gap was blocked, and all the arrows in the arrow magazine in the crossbowman's crossbow machine had been shot, and when the Yan soldiers were taking out new arrow box equipment, an unexpected scene appeared.
The ghost cavalry quickly approached, followed Ma Chao and galloped to a position about eight meters away from the gate, and all the cavalry held the spears in their hands. Raised high above his head, he threw the spear in his hand with all his might.
Su Fei and everyone were stunned, looking at the spear flying in the air, before they had time to dodge, the tip of the spear was quickly inserted into their bodies.
"Wow!"
Su Fei screamed, spitting blood, and there were three spears stuck in his chest, and the three spears all passed through his chest, along with the other shield soldiers who were blocking the front. They fell backwards.
"Kill!"
When the spear pierced the body of the Yan soldier, the horse's hooves also stepped in, and the defense line composed of shield soldiers suddenly disappeared without a trace, and the ghost cavalry drove the horse to step on the corpse of the Yan soldier, bent down and pulled out the spear inserted into the body of the Yan soldier, and continued to rush forward.
"Boom!"
Ma Chao and the ghost cavalry rushed into the unprotected crowd. The impact of the horses immediately knocked away many Yan cavalry, and Ma Chao and the ghost cavalry stabbed the rest of the Yan soldiers with their spears. Like a hungry wolf that has entered a flock of sheep, killing wantonly, one after another Yan soldiers were lost under the iron hooves of Ma Chao and the ghost cavalry.
When Wen Chou and Gan Ning rode horses from the Chinese army with a thousand cavalry to feel the vanguard camp, the huge camp had been occupied by the Xiliang soldiers, and the fires on the left and right sides continued to spread to the middle, and the cavalry drove the war horses and quickly moved back with bags of food. It avoided the loss of food being burned by fire or being robbed by the Xiliang soldiers.
"General Gan! General Moon! Wang Wei rode a war horse with a bag of grain in front of him and met Gan Ning and Wen Chou.
Gan Ning saw that Wang Wei's face was blackened by thick smoke, while the cavalry and many infantry were rushing to transport food. Then he asked, "What about Su Fei?" โ
As Gan Ning's general, Wang Wei is still competent, at least some generals, when the Xiliang soldiers suddenly attacked the camp and set it on fire, Wang Wei's first thought was food, he led all the cavalry to start rescuing the granary, and transported bags of grain out.
In order to cover Wang Wei, Su Fei led 4,000 infantry to resist the Xiliang soldiers, and judged the situation and asked the remaining 6,000 infantry to follow Wang Wei to grab the grain and retreat backwards, so that Wang Wei could safely transport the grain out of the granary that was about to be spread by the fire without being harassed.
Wang Wei glanced back at the camp, the billowing smoke covered a qiฤ, and he couldn't see anything anymore, shook his head, and said: "General Gan, Su Fei led the crowd to resist Ma Chao, and he is still in the camp, and he doesn't know ...... life or death at this time."
Gan Ning and Su Fei are good friends, after hearing this, his face was cold, and he hurriedly said: "Wang Wei, you quickly lead the soldiers to retreat, and someone will answer you later, I will go to find Su Fei." โ
"Wait......" Wen Chou grabbed Gan Ning's arm, his eyes stared at the billowing smoke in the camp, like an animal in danger, and became very alert, "Someone came out of the smoke!" โ
After Gan Ning heard this, he hurriedly looked towards the middle of the camp, but saw that what emerged from the billowing smoke was not Su Fei and Yan soldiers, but a murderous ghost cavalry, they were covered in blood, as if they had just been soaked in the blood swamp, and the person at the head was none other than Ma Chao, the king of Qin.
"Ma Chao is here, General Gan and Captain Wang, please quickly lead the soldiers and horses of the pioneer battalion to retreat!" With years of battlefield experience, Wen Chou was sure that Su Fei was killed, he frowned and shouted seriously.
"But Su Fei ......" Gan Ning also sensed a hint of ominousness, and only halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped, his pupils began to dilate, and the whole person stayed there.
Wang Wei rarely saw Gan Ning like this, seeing this expression, he hurriedly turned his head to look over, but saw that there was a human head hanging from the neck of the war horse under the seat that Ma Chao was riding, and that human head was Su Fei's.
"Captain Wang, please quickly escort your general out of here, and I will defend myself against the pursuing soldiers!" When Wen Chou saw Ma Chao coming, he immediately roared in a low voice, and there was irresistible power in the roar.
"No!"
Wang Wei rode his horse in front of Gan Ning, hugged his fists and said, "General, please leave quickly......"
"I'm going to kill him...... I'm going to kill him...... I'm going to kill Ma Chao. Avenge Su Fei! Gan Ning was furious, completely angry, and pulled out the Ugin Great Ring Knife from his back, wanting to ride out.
"Bang!"
At this moment, Wen Chou suddenly made a move and knocked Gan Ning unconscious with one palm. A long-lost killing intent also appeared on his face, and he said to Wang Wei: "Take him away!" โ
"No!"
Wang Wei stretched out his long arm, hugged Gan Ning by the waist, put him on his horseback, and left here with a loud shout, retreating with more than 100 cavalry who had just come out of the camp to rescue food.
The vanguard camp had completely fallen, and the raging fire spat out a merciless tongue of fire that engulfed the huge camp. In the flames and smoke, Ma Chao galloped out of the camp with more than 3,000 ghost cavalry, and suddenly saw Wen Chou and others waiting in front of him.
Wen Chou had already lined up his posture and lined up with a thousand light horsemen under his subordinates, blocking Ma Chao's way forward.
Ma Chao reined in the horses and looked at the soldiers led by Wen Chou from a distance. He glanced at the leader Wen Chou and his subordinates, his face was calm and unafraid. It's not like Su Fei, who was killed in the barracks just now, no one has arrived. Cowardice comes first.
"Who is leading the troops in front?" Ma Chao didn't know Wen Chou, so he turned his head and asked the people around him.
"Wen Chou, one of the five tiger generals of the Yan Kingdom!" Zhang Xiu was by Ma Chao's side, when he guarded the letter valley pass, he had seen Wen Chou's majestic appearance many times, but it was a pity that his uncle Zhang Ji was too afraid of Wen Chou at that time, so he only defended and did not attack. It's because he has never fought against Wen Chou.
"Wen Chou? Is it the famous Jizhou general who first followed Yuan Shao and then voted for Lu Bu, and is as famous as Yan Liang? There was a hint of respect in Ma Chao's eyes.
"That's the man."
The former met Zhao Yun, the head of the Five Tiger Generals, but unfortunately he didn't compete, and this time he met Wen Chou. Be sure to be higher and lower with one. "Ma Chao's old mistake has been made again, and when he encounters the rumored master, he always wants to challenge it. When he defeats the other party, he gets great pleasure in his heart and makes him feel a sense of fulfillment. To put it bluntly, he is a brave and ruthless person, and no one is convinced.
"King, this is a surprise attack, striving for a quick victory, the 30,000 ghost army has all been put into battle, and His Royal Highness King Liang is still waiting for the king's good news in the camp. If the news that the king had repelled the Yan army of 100,000 with 30,000 men spread, it would be far more admired by the people of the world than defeating a Wen Chou. Please think twice! Qian Hu has been following Ma Chao's side for a long time, knowing Ma Chao's character and temper, just like Ma Chao's mistake of fighting alone, it is estimated that he will miss the opportunity to chase Lin Nan.
After hearing this, Ma Chao turned his head to look at Qian Hu and asked, "What you said was told by the military advisor, right?" โ
Qian Hu didn't deny it, but admitted it directly, and said: "The military advisor is worried about the king, so he specially asked the last general to remind the king by his side, and ask the king to calm his anger if he is offended." โ
"Send two people to sue Suo Xu and Wang Shuang, let them fight quickly, attack left and right, and start to move closer to the middle with me, chasing and killing Lin Nan!" Ma Chao's face suddenly became hideous, and he said coldly.
When Qian Hu heard Ma Chao's words, he already knew that Ma Chao had no intention of single-handing Wen Chou, so he immediately called two relatives and ordered him to convey the order.
Zhang Xiu observed the number of Wen Chou and the surrounding terrain, and said to Ma Chao: "King, my uncle was killed by Wen Chou, I want to avenge my uncle, and ask the king for permission." โ
"Not allowed!" Ma Chao said very sternly, "You and Qian Hu each took a thousand cavalry to return to Wen Chou's flank, and cooperated with me to launch an attack, this time not only to hunt down Lin Nan, but also to fight the five tiger generals who are famous in Yan Kingdom, so that everyone in the world knows that only I, Ma Chao, am the strongest." โ
Zhang Xiu didn't dare to disobey, although she had a lot of reluctance in her heart, she had to agree.
Ma Chao took two steps forward, moved his spear forward, and asked, "Are you Wen Chou?" โ
"You're Ma Chao?" Wen Chou looked at Ma Chao and asked rhetorically.
Ma Chao laughed and said: "It's interesting, I dare to learn from this king." However, this king is in a good mood today, so I won't worry about you. You were originally Yuan Shao's subordinate, Yuan Shao was defeated, you followed Lu Bu again, Lu Bu was defeated, and you followed Lin Nan. Now, my heavenly soldiers have suddenly arrived, Lin Nan himself is difficult to protect, and he is about to be defeated, why don't you follow me in the future, this king promises to let you eat fragrant and drink spicy food, which is ten or a hundred times better than what you have lived in Yan Kingdom. โ
After hearing this. felt that Ma Chao's words were very tempting, if it was before, he might have planned for his future way out, but since Lu Bu was defeated and surrendered to Lin Nan again, although he was ranked among the Five Tiger generals in Yan Kingdom, he was actually not supported by many people. After all, he killed a lot of Yan soldiers, which he couldn't make up for.
In Yan State, in order to quell this discrimination, Lin Nan had no choice but to transfer Wen Chou to Saiwai and be responsible for building a new city. Within two years, Wen Chou never returned to Jicheng. Although Wen Chou lived a relatively hard life outside the Saiwai and did not enjoy any blessings, his daughter has become a member of the Women's Army and the main general, which makes him happy.
He lives. It was for his daughter, and at the same time, he could also feel the pressure on Lin Nan, so he had no complaints about Lin Nan, some were just grateful, after all, as a general, he could still rank him among the five tigers, and even overshadow other people who had followed Lin Nan for a long time, which was already the greatest honor for him.
Wen Chou slowly remembered the past. Now he has entered middle age and is also a father. The desert, grassland, horse grazing, and sheep herding made him feel as if he had found his belonging, and he felt that he belonged to that land......
Ma Chao looked thoughtful when he saw Wen Chou. Then he asked, "How is it, how are you thinking about it?" If you come to this king, this king will promote you to be the general of Zhenbei. โ
"I advise you to talk less nonsense, it is impossible for me to surrender, I came to stop you. If you have any ability, just use it. Wen Chou snorted coldly, shook his spirits, and made his final decision.
Ma Chao originally had a happy face, in his opinion, if Wen Chou's heart was unmoved, he would not have thought about it for so long, but he didn't know that his words only evoked Wen Chou's memories and strengthened his beliefs.
He put away his fake smile, revealing his originally hideous face, his face was covered with blood, he couldn't wait to kill the once famous Jizhou general in front of him with his own hands, sneered, and roared in a low voice: "It's up to you?" Can you stop me? โ
"I haven't fought before, and everything is unknown, so let the horse come! As long as I'm here, you don't want to go over! Wen Chou said solemnly.
"Hahaha...... In this case, then this king can only step over your corpse and let you know that this king is invincible in the world! โ
As soon as the words fell, Ma Chao clenched the Earth Fire Xuanlu Spear in his hand, and suddenly rode out of his horse, and the ghost cavalry behind him was like a part of Ma Chao's body, and galloped out, however, just less than three meters away, Zhang Xiu and Qian Hu each led a thousand cavalry to the left and right, and the three forces, like a three-pronged sharp knife, rushed straight to the thousand cavalry led by Wen Chou.
Wen Chou clenched the spear in his hand, although he did not fight in the past two years, his martial arts did not fall at all, from time to time he would learn martial arts with his subordinates, and at the same time guide his subordinates' generals to ride and martial arts, in the lack of guiding others, he also gained a certain amount of experience, making up for his previous shortcomings, it can be said that his current martial arts, compared with two years ago, are more skilled.
He saw that the ghost cavalry was divided into three teams in an instant, thinking that Ma Chao wanted to take part of his troops to duel with him, and divided the other two groups of cavalry to cross over from the side, and secretly shouted in his heart that it was not good, and immediately divided the cavalry into three, and handed them over to the two military commanders with good martial arts under his subordinates, and went to stop the cavalry led by Zhang Xiu and Qian Hu.
Ma Chao was rushing forward with his subordinates, and when he saw Wen Chou suddenly divide the troops into three, infinite joy immediately surged in his heart, and he secretly shouted: "Wen Chou is nothing more than that!" โ
There are three kinds of people in this world, one is who knows a lot of art of war, and will always imagine the pros and cons of arranging troops before fighting, and then after thinking maturely, choose a method that can minimize casualties, this kind of person is called the art of war; The second type of person is that he does not know any art of war, but when he moves to war, he is particularly daring to rush and dare to fight, and makes his own judgment in the form of the battlefield, and often the judgment he makes is correct, and he often defeats the opponent by surprise, this kind of person is called a person who can fight; The third type of people are those who know both the art of war and the ability to fight.
The reason why these three kinds of people are listed is because Ma Chao and Wen Chou are both one of them, and they also have a common similarity, that is, they don't know any art of war, but they are very good at fighting.
Wen Chou has been in battle for a long time, has seen a lot of things, and has rich experience, so he is often able to make his own correct judgments when fighting. Although Ma Chao was young, he often participated in the war against the Qiang people, quelled the rebellions in Guanzhong and Liangzhou, and often won more with less, but his judgment was correct in the rapidly changing battlefield.
Now, these two generals, one big and one small, meet on the same battlefield, but their judgments on the battlefield are completely different.
However, wrong judgment will lead people into the boundless abyss.
Wen Chou divided the troops into three, and led four hundred cavalry to meet Ma Chao, just rushed to a place less than ten meters away from Ma Chao, he unexpectedly found that Ma Chao took out a shuttle spear, and the strange thing is that all the cavalry behind Ma Chao raised the spear and made a throwing state.
Sharp, he immediately discovered the difference between the Ma Chao Legion, and while secretly screaming in his heart, he hurriedly opened his mouth and shouted: "Disperse!" Spread out! Spread out ......"
As soon as the voice was shouted, there were many sounds in the air that broke through the air, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw many spears stabbing at him. He gasped, hurriedly swung the spear in his hand, and with the help of his exquisite marksmanship, he swept away all the spears that stabbed him, and escaped the catastrophe.
However, the rest of the people were not so lucky, they were suddenly pierced through the body by spears, and the huge inertia slammed the cavalry on horseback, and the flesh and blood trampled by the cavalry running behind were blurred.
In just such a confrontation, half of the four hundred cavalry led by Wen Chou had died, and the two cavalry that went to meet Zhang Xiu and Qian Hu also encountered the same situation, but the casualties were worse than those on Wen Chou's side, and almost all of them were killed.
Wen Chou didn't have time to think about anything else, he felt a fierce force pressing towards him, as soon as he turned around, he saw that Ma Chao had rushed to him, and was holding up the Earth Fire Xuanlu Gun in his hand to assassinate himself continuously, the blood-gold tip of the gun kept flashing, and the shadow of the gun was ethereal in front of Wen Chou, real and empty, virtual and real, making people unable to see where the real tip of the gun was.
However, Wen Chou is not in vain, and he is also a master of using guns, frowning, condensing all his eyes, staring at the tip of Ma Chao's gun. At that moment, it seemed to be completely slowed down, he saw the whole process of Ma Chao's spear tip floating up and down, and also saw the vital point of Ma Chao's spear attack, and immediately raised the spear and forcefully pushed away Ma Chao's first attack.
"Zheng!"
With a loud bang, Wen Chou only felt that the tiger's mouth of his hands was numb, and at the same time, his gun was trembling, and with that loud noise, there was a "buzzing" buzzing sound when the gun hit the metal.
The two war horses flashed by, Wen Chou did not slack off at all, the gun picked a line, and then all the enemies who came over were killed by him with one shot, and the method of shooting was also very fast.
After Ma Chao killed one or two cavalrymen, he couldn't see any enemies, he glanced back at Wen Chou, and after seeing Wen Chou's way of making moves, he couldn't help but sigh: "Quick! Permit! Vicious! Wen Chou's marksmanship is excellent, no wonder he saw through my killing moves just now. โ
After a cavalry hedge, there were not many of the 200 cavalry led by Wen Chou, only a few more than 30 horsemen, and the rest were all killed in the impact, and the ghost cavalry had no spears in time, and the saber hanging from the waist became their most powerful weapon, which made it play a great role in close combat.
