There is a way to chase the poor, but in fact, most wars are pursued, and the vast majority of casualties are generated in the pursuit.

Cao Cao's several great victories were produced in the pursuit, and after the sneak attack on Wuchao, he defeated Yuan Shao's main force, pursued and captured 70,000 Yuan soldiers, and then killed them; The battle with Ma Chao was also defeated first and then won, and then chased all the way to revenge the hatred of cutting the beard; Changbanpo chased all the way, chasing Liu Bei's wife and children all behind......

If the enemy's formation is complete and the retreat is orderly, then the pursuit is more risky, but it is a fool not to pursue it if it is scattered like now, and at the same time there is no support from soldiers and food.

Therefore, Fei Qian thought about it for a while, and then ordered Ma Yan to explain some matters, and let him lead the team to pursue, while he took the foot soldiers, collected the prisoners, cleaned up the battlefield, and entered the original camp of Niu Fu.

So Niu Fu and the others were completely sad.

As soon as he stopped in shock and was about to take a rest, gather his troops and make some adjustments, Ma Yan's cavalry appeared with a roar, holding their sabers high, and killed them quickly, and the Xiliang soldiers who had just put their feet on the ground from their horses were so frightened that they immediately grabbed the reins, turned over on their horses, and continued to escape......

Ma Yan did not intercept at all, but launched an attack on those soldiers who were still standing still and resisting, these hot-headed guys were not many in the first place, and then there were fewer and fewer.

These soldiers who dared to resist gave great psychological comfort to those who fled, and it didn't matter if they couldn't outrun Mayan's pursuers, as long as they ran ahead of those fools......

After repeating the same process many times, as soon as Ma Yan's battle flag appeared, it had become a conditioned reflex for the Xiliang soldiers to run on their horses, they couldn't arouse their fighting spirit anymore, they only knew how to run, and continued to run forward, as long as they outran the last group of teammates, they could survive for a while.

Hedong came all the way from Shaanxi and Tianjin, how much grain and grass did Niu Fu Xiliang soldiers rob before, and now they are hated by Hedong people, and now they have the opportunity to jump out and fight the water dogs, not only what Wang Yi is very willing to do, but even the rural Haoyou who was robbed by the Xiliang soldiers along the way and had been robbed by the Xiliang soldiers in the small dock fort are also willing to come out to pick up some cheap, as a result, Ma Yan found that although he divided the army into three parts and continued to pursue, it seems that the strength of each part of the army does not know when it has become huge.

The passion that Chinese people can burst out when they see the word free is in the same vein regardless of ancient and modern.

What's more, the Xiliang cavalry is simply a mobile vault!

Niu Fu, as Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, has really got a lot of good goods, whether it is a war horse, a war armor, or a war knife, they are all good goods, if a cavalryman is caught and stripped of his head up and down, at least he can be exchanged for a year's rations for a family of three ordinary people.

In addition, this area has also been affected by the fierce customs of the people of Bingzhou, seeing the exhausted and panicked Xiliang cavalry, there are some farmers who seem to be so honest and honest forever, and they also stared at the back of the head of the Xiliang cavalry who only cared about drinking water and begging for food......

So Ma Yan's pursuit team became larger and larger, and the number of people was increasing, and the smoke and dust excited by people stepping on horses were like a yellow dragon along the official road, rushing over with teeth and claws, so frightened that the Xiliang soldiers couldn't tell whether there were more people with war knives or more people with dung forks among those chasing soldiers, and they only knew how to flee from the wind.

Ma Yan's three troops took turns to attack, pursuing from sunrise to sunset, and they didn't stop at all along the way, seeing that the sky was really dark, Ma Yan gradually gathered his troops and began to slowly retreat to Anyi.

Niu Fu's personal guards also suffered a lot of losses in the pursuit, some died in order to allow Niu Fu to escape smoothly, some were separated in the process of escaping, and now there are only about a dozen people left by Niu Fu's side.

Hearing the sound of the noisy pursuing troops in the far rear, these Niu Fu's personal guards were relieved, and then found a deserted grass hut on the side of the road, and helped Niu Fu, who was already a little confused, to sit down......

In the morning, there were nearly 10,000 troops, and now there are about a dozen left around in the evening, this kind of ups and downs in life really hit Niu Fu enough, and he has not completely recovered until now.

Why did you lose?

When sending the Xiliang cavalry to attack, Niu Fu thought that the fruit of victory had been pinched into his hands, but how could this sweet fruit of victory turn into a bubble of horse manure in a blink of an eye......

I can't figure it out, Niu Fu sat in a daze.

But the guards can't accompany Niu Fu in a daze, from sunrise to eat early breasts to now, seven or eight hours have passed, and they have long been hungry with their chests and backs, two or three guards got together, picked up firewood, set up the suggested stove, and then there was a little embarrassment, no pot, no grain and grass, what should I do?

At this moment, suddenly there was a chaotic sound of horses' hooves on the road, and Niu Fu's personal guard was frightened, and hurriedly kicked out the small bonfire that had just been lit, and then ran to the grass hut......

"Not a chaser! Not a chaser! "The sharp-eyed guards have already recognized it, and the leader is Hu Chi'er.

There weren't many Hu Qi's horses left who were following Hu Chi'er, there were only about twenty, and when they saw Niu Fu's personal guards, they all turned over and dismounted, and stopped.

"Is there anything to eat?" Almost at the same time, people on both sides asked the same words.

Hu Chi'er gritted his teeth, and then said to his subordinates: "Kill a horse......

Otherwise, what else?

There is no village in front of here, there is no shop in the back, where will you find food in the wilderness for a while? Although there is a shallow stream next to it, there are no fish and shrimp, do you expect to drink water to quench hunger?

Survive and live.

Hu Chi'er heard the mourning of the horses in front of him, frowned and turned his head, and asked, "What about the general?" ”

The guards led Hu Chi'er to Niu Fu and said, "General...... General, Captain Hu is here. ”

Niu Fu's unfocused eyes gradually gathered, and then the flesh on his face suddenly jumped up, and suddenly stood up and knocked Hu Chi'er to the ground with a punch, and then shouted while punching and kicking: "It's all because of you!" It's all because of you! ”

People who refuse to admit defeat always hope to find an excuse, and seeing Hu Chi'er appear in front of him, Niu Fu seems to have found the best outlet to bear this defeat......

The guards hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him, and then separated Niu Fu from Hu Chi'er, and comforted Hu Chi'er: "The general just lost his heart for a while...... It's good to wait for Shaanjin...... "There are still Xiliang's troops on the ground in Hongnong, and no matter how bad it is, there are Li Dao and other troops sent to attack Luoyang."

Hu Chi'er wiped the nosebleed that was beaten by Niu Fu, and was silent for a while when he heard the words, then nodded and said, "...... I know, it's okay, it's okay......"
