At the end of the fifth watch, Ma Chao and Ma Dai converged, and at this moment Ma Chao was organizing a pursuit, and the camp was also organizing people to put out the fire.

Ma Dai's troops marched tirelessly, and although their morale was strong at this time, they were lacking in men and horses.

The infantry is tired, resting on the spot for a period of time and being able to fight; War horses tend to be severely overdrawn and not easy to recover, or die suddenly from overdraft.

Ma Dai gulped down fried corn, waiting for Ma Chao's decision.

Someone has been sent to pursue, only to pursue the defeated Li Xu and Li Zhen, but there are other Wei troops to deal with.

Just as Guan Yu's private army's Dangkou army is thirty miles to the south, if there is no support and solidarity with the attacked Chinese army Ma Liang tonight, the Dangkou army will not go out of the camp to participate in the battle before sunrise and dawn.

It's not a good relationship, who dares to come to save you at night?

Sending troops to rescue at night violates the principle of using troops...... If the goal of rescue is significant, this principle can be ignored.

For example, Tian Xin and Ma Chao are all existences that must be rescued, and the priority is higher than that of normal military law.

Ma Liang is the protector, and the guard is Ma Chao's Chinese military camp, as usual, if it is attacked, the surrounding camps will also send small units to support and test to find out the situation.

How can there be such a disregard?

Ma Chao couldn't confirm the attitude of the Dangkou army, and was still waiting, while the foot riders who returned with Ma Dai accelerated their meals and prepared to participate in the next round of pursuit.

The night attack battle is like this, the sneak attack of a small group of troops is okay, and the retreat is convenient; The more troops participated, the higher the cost of retreat.

The Dangkou army did not participate in the pursuit, and at this moment pursued the Wei army with a newly victorious tired army...... Some hang.

"Don't stop the teacher, besiege the teacher, don't chase the poor, this method of using soldiers."

At this moment, in the barracks of the Dangkou Army, Zhou Cang picked up a volume of "The Art of War and Military Disputes" that he visited on his desk, handed it to Ma Kang, who came to supervise, and said: "Zhao Gong is brave and good at fighting, and he has long been afraid of the attack of the thief army. The walls of the Chinese military camp are solid and wide, and the thieves can not break through quickly. I think it was Mr. Shuchang who filtered it, and the left guard would never be in danger. ”

Ma Kang has never experienced such a dangerous night battle, and wherever the night attack team of the Wei army, which is already fortified and clear, can still set fire to it, shining on the bright and brilliant north, and the red flames soar to the sky.

Looking at it from afar, it seems that the former camp where Ma Chao is located has been engulfed in flames.

At this time, the Dangkou army had already sounded the morning drum of the three links, and the officers and men of the whole army had finished eating, and they were eating after a full meal, waiting for the sunrise to go out of the camp to pursue.

The pursuit is definitely to be pursued, but it must not be pursued at night.

Zhou Cang did not send troops, and Ma Kang was helpless, so he rushed to the Duliao army on the side, which was the station of the Duliao general Xiahoulan.

As the permanent border army of Wuyuan County, General Duliao was originally a standing member of the Han Dynasty, a famous general, and a bigwig of the border army, and now he has many honors.

Just like Zhao Lei, the general of Lou Chuan, he was also transferred to General Fubo at the same level, just because General Fubo is a famous general, and the honor is extraordinary.

Xiahoulan's headquarters had also completed the war preparations, but refused to send troops, and also refused to send a small team to investigate the information of Ma Liangzhong's military camp and Ma Chaoqian's battalion.

As an old general, Xiahou Lan is confident: "The thief came by night, and he didn't know my intentions, so he was suspicious and uncertain." If I send an army to investigate, I will be detected by thieves. The thieves retreat quickly, and if I pursue slowly, the labor army will be in vain, and the quick pursuit will suffer from it. ”

"What's more, the Chinese military camp is stable today, and it is difficult for thieves to break it quickly."

"The person I am worried about is the front camp where Zhao Gong is located. The thief in front of me fled north, and had the power to flank Zhao Gong's front camp. ”

"Therefore, our army is hanging still, but it is conducive to the invasion of Zhao Gong's defense of the thief army."

Xia Houlan spoke, and Ma Kang and Dong Hui were speechless.

The front army is Guan Yu's front army, Guan Yu does not supervise, and it is all up to the generals of each battalion to play on their own.

After Pan Jun left, the front army did not set up a new escort army and a supervising army, which was really unnecessary.

At present, the armies of the former army do not need heavyweight escorts to coordinate contradictions and deal with personnel work; Now the generals of the former army are responsible to Guan Yu.

At two o'clock, after Ma Kang and Ma Liang collected, the knights of the left army galloped on the east bank of the safe Lishui to transmit the message.

At this moment, there is only a moment left before sunrise, and now if you pursue the Wei army ambush, behind the ass is exactly this part of the Wei army that attacked the camp of the Chinese army, and this part of the Wei army will definitely burst out with far more enthusiasm than usual in order to retreat to its own position and go home.

But if you don't chase ...... It's too late to chase, what can be done now is to quickly deploy defenses and intercept the Wei army that attacked the Chinese army camp.

Before the capture of the middle and high-ranking military officials of the Wei army, now I don't know that the commander of the Wei army who invaded the camp of the Ma Liang Zhong army is Le Qi.

No matter who the commander of this part of the Wei army is, this Wei army can fight for twenty miles at night, and it must be the elite unit of the Wei army.

Blocking such an elite army that is determined to go home, its counterattack is very ferocious, if it can't suppress the opponent's attack, your own blocking array will definitely be crushed.

The terrain here is gentle, there are no passes, roads can be blocked, and there are roads almost everywhere.

Blockade, your own casualties are definitely not small.

If you block it, how do you block it?

Concentrate your forces? Then the other party is divided into pieces, the goal of breaking through is clear, the army is scattered to break through, just run towards the north, and I am not afraid that it will be difficult to reunite after the army is scattered.

And here is only three or four miles away from the Wankou defense line, if you are entangled and fighting, the Wei army can reach the army at any time, so that you can suffer the enemy on your back.

If the army is scattered...... Like an open fishing net, he wanted to eat all of this Wei army, not only because he was not resistant to the impact and was easy to be washed away, but he was even more afraid that Wei Jun would be attacked before and after.

If at this time, any unit of the Kou Army and the Du Liao Army took the initiative to pursue, it would definitely be another kind of dispatch, that is, their own side would flank, encircle, and swallow this elite force of the Wei Army!

As long as it drags on until sunrise, the Beifu soldiers will have no excuse for delay, and they will definitely send troops to fight.

At that time, no matter how many troops the Wei army sent, after leaving the fortifications, it was not enough for him and Tian Xin to fight!

It's hateful, but Zhou Cang and Xia Houlan don't cooperate.

Do you want Ma Liang to lead the Chinese army battalion to pursue the remaining troops?

It's too late, the siege equipment in the Chinese military camp is the most important, far more important than swallowing the three or five thousand troops of the Wei army.

There are still many battles to be attacked, and the Wankou defense line is just an appetizer.

If the siege equipment was set on fire by a small elite detachment of the Wei army, then ...... Ma Liang's head has to be moved, and it is not negotiable.

After thinking about it repeatedly and finding out the key points, Ma Chaoqi's teeth itched, and he pulled out the meteor sword and slashed at the fence in front of him, and the sword body was all submerged.

He tried to draw the sword, but the hilt of the sword did not move, Ma Chao grabbed the hilt and shook it from side to side a few times to pull out the sword, but after a crisp sound, he pulled out half of the meteor sword.

On one side, Ma Dai was stunned, and the other military officials all looked different and were mostly uneasy.

Ma Chao looked at the broken meteor sword in a daze, and thought of the white rainbow sword he gave to Tian Xin and the second-developed divine horse Mengdo, his heart was congested, and he raised his arm and raised the broken sword and threw it towards the fence.

With a bang, the broken sword was nailed to the log of the fence.

At this time, more than 100 Beifu rangers were divided into several groups and marched forward, avoiding the possible ambush points of the Wei army, playing scattered sparse torches, and throwing arrows on horses.

Le Qi was withdrawing his troops, and seeing the sparse torches coming from the west, he didn't need to give an order, and the officials who were gradually gathering in his department were speeding up and running in no particular order.

Zhang Liao watched the battle in the middle of the night, and couldn't help but sigh at this time: "I underestimated this person, I thought that the eagle was brave and thirsty for killing, and he was a peerless and brave person, and he was ordinary." I don't want to use soldiers calmly, and I don't see sharpness. ”

"Marquis of Jinyang, this must be caused by Pang Shiheng's strategy and persuasion."

Wu Zhou took the lead in getting up and comforted Zhang Liao: "Pang Shiheng is a master of Lumen Mountain, and his talent is no less than that of his brother Pang Shiyuan. Meng Gongwei, Cui Zhouping, and Xu Yuanzhi all have praise, and they should not be taken lightly. ”

After a slight pause, Wu Zhou said: "If the enemy army can be defeated in this battle, and his morale is depressed, he may be able to lobby this person with the peace of the world." ”

The core military officials of the opposing side, this kind of thing is not something that Zhang Liao can participate in, but he bowed his head slightly, stretched out his arms and signaled: "Sir, go, let the servants pick up the mess." ”
