Chapter 17: Heavy losses

At night, the cold wind was biting, but Su Dingfang's department was in full swing, and he lured a large number of Qianghu out of Shanwucheng.

After the red light in Ma Chao's eyes rushed out of the city, he immediately ordered: "Ambush!" ”

A bang sounded, and on the left and right sides of the road, hundreds of Han soldiers suddenly came out, and the Qianghu leader shouted: "Not good! We've been ambushed! ”

"Han people are the most hateful!"

"If you have the ability, fight me to the death!"

When Su Dingfang heard this, his eyes flashed, and he shouted: "Okay! I have your request! ”

After that, he took the lead, rushed out of the military formation, waved the Zhuguo lance in his hand, and killed the leader of Qianghu.

This Qianghu leader is 2 meters tall, burly and majestic, even with Su Dingfang's height of 1.85 meters, he is a head shorter in front of him.

The leader of Qianghu rode on the tall war horse, condescending, looked down at Su Dingfang who was rushing to kill, pulled out his war knife, and sneered: "I don't know whether to live or die!" ”

The two generals quickly exchanged blows, and the power of the big knife from the 2-meter giant shook Su Dingfang's tiger's mouth.

He pulled back the horse's head and stabbed it back, but was blocked by the leader, who laughed: "Just Han people, why don't you worry about it, eat me with a knife!" ”

The big knife fell in the air, and he swung several knives in an instant, and the knife went straight to the vital point of Su Dingfang's body, and he had to barely block the enemy's attack, unable to fight back.

"Not good!"

Ma Chao, who turned on the thermal imaging, saw a huge green dot and a huge red dot fighting together, but the huge green dot was obviously unable to bear it, and was forced to retreat constantly.

Good guy, although Su Dingfang was young at this time, only 20 years old, his force value was 80, but he could not stop the enemy's offensive.

"I have to save him!"

Jia Xu stopped: "Meng Qi, how can you save it?" You rush over now, it's nothing more than sending an extra head! ”

"There it is!"

Ma Chao slapped his head and gave the order: "Attack the city quickly!" ”

A large number of Qianghu in Shanwu City have been seduced out by Su Dingfang, and even the leader of the other party has been hooked out, and now the defenders in the city are not Ma Chaojun's opponents at all, and they have broken through the city in less than half an hour.

As soon as Shanwu City was taken, Ma Chao immediately led the army out of the city and went straight to Su Dingfang, Qianghu was flanked from front to back, and most of the casualties were killed.

At this time, Su Dingfang had been beaten and had no way to retreat, and all the soldiers around him had been killed, which showed the strength of the enemy.

Su Dingfang gritted his teeth: "Su was full of enthusiasm and wanted to serve the country, but I didn't expect that the first battle would be my death taboo!" ”

"Even so, I will kill the enemy and give my part!"

Su Dingfang's whole body flickered, and Ma Chao, who was still in the distance, was a spirit, and his eyes were pierced by the light: "Ah, my eyes, who is it, blind my eyes?" ”

[System prompt: Su Dingfang fought to the death, force value +1]

Then, Su Dingfang roared: "It's like a bamboo!" ”

His whole person burst into a dazzling light again, and before the enemy leader could react, he was shot down by a lance!

The leader was just about to stand up and continue to attack, when Su Dingfang pierced the leader's chest like a god.

"Uh, ahhh——!hhh

The leader screamed, Su Dingfang rotated the big lance in his hand, and the leader's whole person was divided into several pieces of flesh and blood, and the blood was splashed and sprinkled all over Su Dingfang's body.

Under the blood rain, Su Dingfang seemed to be a demon crawling out of the endless abyss, he raised his head and roared: "Who dares to be my enemy?!" ”

Wild, bloody, and violent, it intimidates all the soldiers on both sides.

In this battle, although Ma Chaojun killed more than 4,000 Qianghu, the 2,000 elite cavalry actually killed and injured more than 500, which can be said to be a tragic victory.

Moreover, Su Dingfang was stabbed several times, and the knife wounds were like the roots of an old tree, entangled around Su Dingfang's body, and he had passed out.

In the past few days, when Ma Chaojun was resting, he learned from the pain and carefully studied Su Dingfang's personal information, Su Dingfang can only activate the King of Talent and Conquest when he leads the army to fight against foreign races.

So, under what circumstances can it be called a leading battle?

Obviously, it was Su Dingfang who led the army to fight alone, that is, he had to be a commander.

If the night attack on Shanwucheng a while ago was not commanded by Ma Chao, but by Su Dingfang, then with the 10 force points brought to him by his talent, he would have 90 force points, which was enough to fight the Qianghu leader alone.

But it was Ma Chao who was in command, so Su Dingfang was not the enemy's opponent and was almost killed.

Thinking of this, Ma Chao had palpitations, that Qianghu leader, the force value seemed to be no less than 95.

Such a character, put in the Eastern Han Dynasty and the opposition, isn't it a fierce general?

Ma Chao narrowed his eyes and secretly analyzed: "It seems that the strength of the Hu people is a bit beyond my estimates, perhaps, even if there is no later Eight Kings Rebellion, the Western Jin Dynasty in history will not be able to resist the invasion of the Hu people!" ”

"However, it is also possible that the talent and stunt blessing of the Qianghu leader will make him so strong, but the person is dead, and there is no point in saying this."

It is more likely that Dingxiang County has fallen, so it is only natural that there is a general-level leader of the Qianghu tribe here.

"Report!"

The scout came to report: "Ma Teng's army is divided into two routes, Lu Bu's troops are killing in all directions in Xihe County, killing Qianghu everywhere, and Ma Teng and Pang De's troops are driving the remnants of Qianghu out of the Great Wall." ”

Jia Xu happened to come in at this time, listened to the battle report, and said: "Qianghu is still gathering troops, and it can be said that the morale of the Qianghu army has been greatly weakened by a burst of Lu Bu's troops. ”

"Yes, but Lu Bu doesn't have a few days to jump, and there are more and more Qianghu troops gathered in Xihe County, and he can only fight and retreat."

Ma Chao continued: "Master Jia, my father's road, it is possible to join forces with Dong Zhuojun all the way, or it is possible to go alone to attack Beidi County, and we will speed up the march." ”

Jia Xu asked, "How is Dingfang's injury?" ”

At this time, Su Dingfang walked out of it and moved his muscles and bones: "It's okay, as long as you don't hurt the bones inside, it doesn't matter if you have flesh injuries." ”

"That's for the best."

Ma Chao nodded, spread out the map, and said: "Now, our army has completely captured Dingxiang County, and killed the Qianghu general stationed in Dingxiang County. ”

His finger traced the marching route on the map: "This is the marching route of Zhang Liaobu, he should have almost arrived at Wuyuan County by this time." ”

Another marching route was drawn: "This one is the marching route of Sima Cuo's department, we captured Dingxiang County with a blitzkrieg, and it was better and faster than the original plan, and we were able to quickly go to support Zhang Liao's department." ”

Jia Xu said: "Yes, this time we stormed Dingxiang County, although we lost more than 500 elites, but the results were quite fruitful, and we took the enemy by surprise, and we occupied the initiative in time." ”

He then said, "Meng Qi, you should send an order to the scout, tell him to go quickly to Sima Cuo's headquarters, summon him back, and join our army in Wuyuan County. ”

"Good!"

Ma Chao laughed: "We have almost rested in the past few days, and we have obtained a large amount of food hoarded by Qianghu in the city, and we will take them away and go to Wuyuan County!" ”

Wuyuan County is far larger than Dingxiang County, with a total of 9 county seats, namely Jiuyuan, Heyin, Linwo, Wuyuan, Yiliang, Chengyi, Xi'anyang, Wudu, and Manbai.

The Gohara County seat is Jiuyuan County.

Originally, north of Dingxiang County, was Yunzhong County, but it was already scattered, and Ma Chao could only make a choice and take Wuyuan County first.

Taiwei Duan Cheng, one of the three Ming Dynasty in Liangzhou, once wrote a book, mentioning that the border of more than 2,000 miles was eroded by the Hu people, among which Yunzhong County and Wuyuan County in Bingzhou have gradually fallen into the hands of foreign tribes such as the Xiongnu, which is very harmful, but the Eastern Han Dynasty court has not recovered the lost territory.

As a result, in the last years of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, the five counties of Dingxiang, Yunzhong, Wuyuan, Shuofang, and Shangjun in Bingzhou all fell.

Therefore, in the 183 merger of states, Yunzhong County did not need to save it at all, because Yunzhong County was the closest to the Hu people's territory.

In history, Yuan Shao once appointed his nephew Gao Gan to lead the state assassin history, and Gao Gan actually controlled the area, leaving only one Shangdang County, and all other counties in the state have been lost.

Not much to say, Ma Chao was leading the army to Wuyuan County at this time, and before the army arrived, he heard the earth-shattering shouts of killing.

Ma Chao immediately turned on the thermal imaging, representing a huge green dot of our army's general, who was besieged by countless red light clusters.

"It's not good, go and rescue Wenyuan!"

1,500 elite cavalry went straight into the battlefield, led by Su Dingfang alone.

At this time, his talent, King of Conquest, was activated, with Force +10 and Commander +10, increasing to 91 and 100 respectively, and increasing his marching speed by 50%.

Su Dingfang roared: "Charge into battle!" ”

The stunt was activated, and the 1,500 elite cavalry emitted the same light as Su Dingfang, overlooking the battlefield, like a sharp knife, directly penetrating the enemy formation!

The enemy army was cut in two, and the head and tail could not be taken care of!

Zhang Liao saw that there was a gap in the enemy army, and immediately led the army to kill it and joined forces with Su Dingfang's department.

Zhang Liao hugged his fists and said: "Brother Dingfang, thank you for your timely help!" ”

"There is no need for this, we will do things for the young master, even if we are in danger, we must move forward!"

"Okay, that's right, then let's kill it!"

The two generals combined, and the combat effectiveness was off the charts, and finally led the army out of the enemy position, the enemy Mingjin retreated, and the enemy army retreated to the military camp outside Jiuyuan County.

In this battle, Zhang Liaobu lost more than 800 cavalry, and Su Dingfang's division lost more than 200 cavalry again, with heavy losses.

The second general, who was covered in blood, went to meet Ma Chao, Zhang Liao bowed his head and said in a muffled voice: "Liao has the trust of the young master, and he has lost more than 800 cavalry, so he is willing to be punished!" ”

Ma Chao hurriedly helped Zhang Liao up: "Wen Yuan laughed, you are my general, I am reluctant to punish you, not only will I not be punished, but I will also be rewarded!" ”
