Chapter 159: Race Against Time
Zhang Feng put on his underwear and said softly: "You actually followed General Ben, I will not disappoint you, you sleep a little longer, and after General Ben saves General Ma Teng and quells the rebellion in Liangzhou, I will come to pick you up." ”
Lu Pheasant whispered softly: "The concubine understands! ”
Gentle Township is a hero's mound, Zhang Feng understands, and Lu Pheasant also understands.
The color was already bright, Zhang Feng sorted out his clothes and armor, held the dragon city halberd, stepped on the snow and kicked the black horse, led the eight hundred black armor army, and the five thousand most elite soldiers of the thirty-six Qiang, and went straight to Beidi County.
In order to speed up the speed and prevent Ma Teng from encountering accidents, Zhang Feng led the cavalry of the 800 Black Armor Army first, and the soldiers of the 36 Qiang were led by Ulu due to the lack of war horses, and slowly followed.
Northland.
After a long period of hasty escape, Ma Teng's remnants finally fled to Lianxian County.
Ma Teng wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked the soldiers beside him, "Where is this?" ”
A soldier who was familiar with the north stepped forward and replied, "General, Lian County is not far ahead. ”
"Have you ever sent someone to spy on the enemy situation in Lian County?"
Ma Teng's heart sank when he heard this, and he instinctively asked: "How many officers and soldiers are guarding Lian County?" ”
At present, Ma Teng's Liangzhou army has become a frightened bird, and there are only more than 1,000 troops left, and the horses have been lost, and there are few left, and they can no longer withstand the attacks of the official army.
If there were a large number of officers and soldiers guarding the city of Lianxian County, it would have been better to make a detour early and march to Dingbian Mountain to find shelter in the Thirty-six Qiang.
The soldier replied: "Back to the general, there are only more than one county guards in the city."
"Oh? There are only more than 100 county soldiers! ”
Ma Teng's expression suddenly moved when he heard this, and he looked back at the remnants of the army under his command, only to see that the soldiers were all hungry and worried, and they needed to find a place to rest and have a full meal.
Thinking of this, Ma Teng did not hesitate anymore, and said loudly: "Brothers, there is Lian County in front, everyone will fight Lian County in one go, and then have a full meal in the city and rest for a few ......."
"Report ......"
Before Ma Teng finished speaking, he was interrupted by the mournful howl of the probe horse, Ma Teng and more than a thousand remnants of the soldiers turned back in shock, only to see a piece of dust rising on the official road behind, and a fast horse was galloping, which was the probe horse sent out by Ma Teng.
"The general is not good, Dong Zhuo's cavalry has caught up!"
"Ahh Catching up so quickly? ”
Ma Teng's expression was gloomy when he heard this, and it was completely finished.
"General, look, cavalry, a large group of cavalry!"
Ma Teng was looking sad when suddenly the sharp-eyed soldiers shouted miserably, Ma Teng looked up in shock, and saw that the vast horizon in front of him had rolled up smoke and dust, and a faint black line was floating from the horizon, and suddenly, this black line had spread to the two wings, and it became obvious.
"Run, run!"
Ma Teng's heart was awe-struck, and he shouted loudly: "Brothers, hurry up and flee into Lianxian County, and use the city wall of Lianxian County to resist Dong Zhuo's cavalry, quickly!" ”
In fact, without Ma Teng's order, these more than 1,000 remnants of the army had already galloped forward like wild horses on the reins, even faster than the usual sprint speed when chasing the enemy army, but regrettably, while desperately fleeing for their lives, they also abandoned the weapons and armor on which they depended.
"General, not good!"
When Ma Teng was galloping on his horse, a soldier suddenly shouted at his side: "There are also cavalry ahead!" ”
"Huh?"
Ma Teng was taken aback, raised his head hurriedly, and sure enough, he saw that the direction of Lianxian County was also rolled up with smoke and dust, and in the smoke and dust that covered the sun, there was also a black cavalry that was sweeping towards the southwest, forming a two-sided attack with the official and army chasing soldiers behind him, and firmly blocking Ma Teng's remnants in the middle.
"General, we are surrounded!"
"There's no escape."
"It's over, it's all over!"
More than 1,000 remnants of the army were in a hurry, gathered around Ma Teng and didn't know what to do, there were interceptions in front and chasing soldiers in the back, and they were in a dilemma.
Ma Teng looked forward, sighed loudly, and said gloomily: "I don't want my Ma Teng Hero I, I will die here, alas, ......"
"Father!"
Ma Chao struggled to sit up from a broken carriage and said to Ma Teng, "Father can quickly lead the cavalry to break through, and the child is willing to stay behind and ......fight to the death."
"Silly boy."
Ma Teng sighed, turned over and dismounted to Ma Chao's side, stretched out his hand to support Ma Chao's head and said, "How can my father leave you and the soldiers of the three armies to escape alone?" So far, there is only one way to fight to the death with Dong Zhuo's thief army. ”
At this moment, Ma Teng faced the more than 1,000 remnants of the soldiers with a sad expression, and said quickly: "Brothers, the left and right are dead, it is better to fight with Dong Zhuo, a dog thief!" ”
"Fight!"
As the so-called trapped beasts are still fighting, these more than 1,000 remnants of the soldiers were forced to a dead end, but on the contrary, they stimulated high morale, Ma Teng gave an order, and began to line up, ready to fight to the death with the cavalry of the east and west.
……
"Report! Ten miles ahead, the whereabouts of the Ma Teng rebels were discovered. ”
"Report! The Ma Teng rebels are rushing towards Lian County. ”
"Report! The Maten rebels had given up fleeing and were in formation. ”
When the last news came back, Xu Rong's army was already approaching Ma Teng's remnants less than three miles, and Xu Rong and the generals around him had clearly seen the remnants of Ma Teng's army.
Xu Rong raised his whip and pointed to the front and laughed: "Ma Teng is going to be trapped and fighting." ”
"With more than 1,000 remnants of the defeated generals, you also want to trap the beast and fight? It's just self-defeating. ”
"It seems that the general will soon be able to exterminate the Ma Teng rebels and achieve a miraculous feat."
"As soon as Ma Teng dies, looking at Liangzhou, who else can resist our army? The capture of the ten counties of Liangzhou can be described as a probe for the ears of things. ”
Xu Rong's voice fell, and the generals around him responded with laughter.
"Huh?"
Xu Rong suddenly let out a sigh of surprise, pointed to the billowing smoke and dust in front of him, and asked the generals beside him, "Which cavalry is ahead?" Could it be that General Li Xuan has already attacked the Shandan Army Horse Farm and led his division back to help? ”
General Hu Zhen stared for a moment, shook his head and said, "No, it's not like General Li Xu's army." ”
Xu Rong said in a condensed voice: "Could it be the Liangzhou cavalry?" ”
"Not like that."
Hu Zhen said: "After the fall of Yan Xing, in addition to Ma Teng's rebels, where are there such powerful cavalry in the ten counties of Liangzhou?" ”
"Hmm!"
Xu Rong said in a condensed voice: "No matter which cavalry it is, at least one thing is certain, they can't be the lord's army." ”
Hu Zhen said: "General Mingjian." ”
"The whole army obeys the order!"
Xu Rong leisurely raised the long knife in his hand and said quickly: "Unfold in a sprint formation!" Get ready to attack! ”
Xu Rong gave an order, and the eight thousand cavalry behind him slowly spread out towards the two wings, setting up a charging formation that was several miles wide.
