Chapter 281: The Poison Warrior of the Three-Front Combat (4)
Ma Chao saw that the general trend of his side was gone, and he no longer had the intention of fighting, so he rode away after a false shot
Ma Chao's escape made Xiahou Yuan really relieved
Fang Cai's battle is really dangerous and abnormal, Ma Chao's attack moves are fierce, every shot wants to kill himself, and being able to hold on to his hands for fifty rounds is already Xiahou Yuan's biggest limit, after fifty rounds, Xiahou Yuan's hands are extremely sore, even the spear is a little unstable, and the strength of his whole body has been exhausted, if Ma Chao does not retreat within the three combinations, I am afraid that he will die in his hands
But fortunately, Ma Chao saw that the situation was not good, and in a panic, he did not realize that he had actually exhausted his strength and fled early, otherwise he would have really died on the battlefield
Although Ma Chao ran away, the opponent's 10,000 Liangzhou cavalry killed at least 7,000, and the remaining 3,000 either surrendered or fled
On our side, the shield soldiers lost about 2,500 people, and about 400 tigers and leopards were killed in battle
Being able to annihilate the opponent's cavalry team of 10,000 people at the cost of less than 3,000 people, I have to say that the results of this battle are quite good
"Hehe, Ma Teng's 10,000 cavalry has been annihilated, presumably he must be in a lot of pain at this time," Xiahou Yuan laughed heartily in Cao Jun's big tent
Although Liangzhou is a place where horses are produced, it is still quite difficult to assemble 10,000 cavalry
Losing so many cavalry at once, if Ma Teng's character is a little softer, maybe he can cry directly
In this regard, Xiahou Yuan is very gloating, who told you that you have nothing to do with us, you can't get along with us, and you insist on sending troops to attack Chang'an, since you have become an enemy, then your pain and sorrow are naturally our happiness and joy
Although Jia Xu's face on the side was still gloomy, there was also a smile on the corner of his mouth
The destruction of the Liangzhou cavalry was originally nothing he expected, but Jia Xu, who was able to achieve such an achievement, as the initiator of everything, still had a faint sense of pride in his heart
But Jia Xu's plan has only just begun
It can be said that the elimination of this Liangzhou cavalry is only the first link in Jia Xu's series of plans, and the elimination of the Liangzhou cavalry is only the beginning of everything, and it is far from over
However, Jia Xu is confident that as long as his plan goes well, then the final victory in the Battle of Chang'an will be within reach for Cao Jun
After whispering to Xiahou Yuan and telling the other party the specific thoughts in his heart in detail, he saw that Xiahou Yuan's eyes were also bright, obviously recognizing and appreciating Jia Xu's plan
Looking at Ma Chao, who was like a defeated rooster in front of him, Ma Teng's heart churned with a burst of bitterness and depression
10,000 cavalry, just like that, the whole army was wiped out, you must know that it was 10,000 Liangzhou iron cavalry, it was the elite cavalry of Liangzhou
Yesterday, he was full of pride, looking forward to his cavalry being able to annihilate Cao's reinforcements, and then take Chang'an City in one go
I never thought that the cavalry that would return a day later would be less than a hundred
Unlike cavalry, training and training 10,000 cavalry requires a lot of military expenses alone, but now it only took half a day to lose everything
Such a heavy loss made Ma Teng almost want to go away
"Son, son," Ma Teng pointed at Ma Chao and scolded loudly: "Didn't you promise to annihilate the other party when you received the order, how did you fight like this now, almost all the cavalry under your command are dead, how can you still have the face to come back to see me?"
As the chief general of the Liangzhou cavalry, the defeated black cauldron was naturally carried by Ma Chao, and in Ma Teng's view, the destruction of the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry was caused by Ma Chao's improper command
If it weren't for Ma Chao being his son, Ma Teng might have directly dragged him down and killed him
"Shou Cheng's matter has come to this point, it's useless to be angry, it's better to think about the next countermeasures," Han Sui on the side saw that Ma Teng was angry, so he opened his mouth to persuade
Han Sui is also a famous wise man in Xiliang, he can see it quite clearly, and Ma Chao really doesn't have much responsibility for this defeat
The idea of using cavalry to annihilate the Cao army's reinforcements is good, but what is unexpected is that the Cao army's elite tiger and leopard cavalry is also hidden in the reinforcements, and there are capable people in the Cao army to help, all the combat arrangements are extremely appropriate, it can be said that they are waiting for their own cavalry to die, in the face of such an ingenious layout, no matter which other general is replaced, I am afraid that there will only be the same fate
Of course, although Han Sui persuaded Ma Teng to calm his anger, he did not intend to tell the other party his analysis and let the Liangzhou cavalry attack is Ma Teng's idea, so strictly speaking, the failure of this battle is still Ma Teng's responsibility, because of his thoughtlessness, if Han Sui explained to Ma Teng in detail, the reason is tantamount to a slap in the face, although he and Ma Teng are righteous brothers, but it is just because of the union of interests, there is no deep moral feeling between each other, if it really slaps the other party's face, this may offend the other party, Han Sui is shrewd, everything is only for himself, and now the relationship with Ma Teng is stiff, it is not good for him, of course he is not willing to do this kind of offending people
