Chapter 1057: Lack of Time
"Zhang Liao's 20,000 troops are trapped in Anyi, Li Chi's 3,000 elites are wiped out, Zhang Liao invites 10,000 siege reinforcements?!" Ma Chao angrily threw the information in his hand on the desk, and repeated the contents of the military newspaper in disbelief.
In fact, after receiving three points of good news in a row, and suddenly receiving Zhang Liao's report asking for help, it was indeed very frustrating. At present, Pang De's army has recovered all of Hanoi County, and has already set up a suspicious array in the suburbs of Gongxian County to confuse Yuan Shao; Zhao Yun's army drove straight in, like a bamboo, and recovered Xihe County, and after the army was completed, he could return to Jinyang to converge; And Tian Yu did a good job, a banquet, talking about the situation in northern Xinjiang, so that Zhao Bao, the Taishou of Bingzhou, felt his love for the people and loyalty, and returned the city of Taiyuan to the Ma family.
In addition, there was a military report earlier, saying that Zhang Yan had been prepared, and he would be able to cooperate with the Ma family's army and attack Leping in a surprise manner. With such a victory, Zhang Liao actually came to a military report asking for reinforcements, which really made Ma Chao a little depressed - but it was just depressed. Moreover, this depression is not to blame Zhang Liao.
"Who is the county guard of Hedong?" After Ma Chao gasped, he picked up the military newspaper and read it carefully.
Xun You's face was not as vivid as Ma Chao's, and after listening to Ma Chao's inquiry, he stepped forward and said, "Han Hao, Han Yuanhei." ”
"Han Hao? He is not Cao ......." Ma Chao said this, and immediately stopped talking, but a wave of doubt rose in his mind.
Han Hao was Cao Wei's military general in history. At first, he followed Wang Kuang, the Taishou of Hanoi County, and later when Cao Cao welcomed the Son of Heaven, he accepted Han Hao as Xiahoudun's deputy general. This person is loyal and strategic, and his intelligence is enough to Suibian, and Tongtian Yu is generally a general who guards the border in the later period of Cao Wei.
At this time, a little stronger than Tian Yu is that this person also has a political vision and is one of Cao Cao's advocates of Tuntian. And one of the most famous things in history is that Xiahoudun was held hostage by several mutinous soldiers, and Han Hao used thunderbolts to solve the incident and intimidate the mutinous soldiers, which was appreciated by Cao Cao. And because of his words to intimidate the rebels, Cao Cao took the method of 'all those who have hostages, they should be attacked together, regardless of quality', as a principle of action promulgated to the whole army. This is a crude approach, but it eliminates many problems.
Ma Jiajun's military regulations also have this article. It was completely Ma Chao's inspiration from Han Hao. However, even though Han Hao is not bad, there are still many doubts in the battle of Xie Liang.
"Gongda, the military newspaper said that when Li Chi attacked Xie Liang, he was attacked without warning. In this way, the attackers had already seen through the Ma family's intentions and ambushed the canyon in advance. Ma Chao's good-looking eyebrows furrowed tightly, he didn't believe that Han Hao would have such a strategic vision and could see through Zhang Liao's thoughts.
"My lord, this matter can be explained. What is important at the moment is this ......." Xun You spread his hand at this time, revealing a steel-nailed crossbow arrow. Seeing that Ma Chao was puzzled, Xun You added: "This was brought back by Li Chi at the risk of death, and it was shot by the Yuan family who attacked the canyon." ”
"What?!" At this time, Ma Chao no longer frowned, but stood up suddenly. He took the steel nail crossbow arrow in Xun You's hand, and his face was extremely gloomy: "This is really not our Ma family's steel nail crossbow arrow, which shows that it is not our Ma family's arsenal that has been stolen, but Yuan Shao has already researched a strong crossbow similar to the Yuan Rong crossbow Fortunately, this strong crossbow cannot be shot continuously." ”
"Why is the lord so sure?" Xun You was very curious, these things all looked the same in the eyes of a layman.
"Do you know, when the Yuanrong crossbow was developed, I stayed with Zheng Hun all day. The arc of the bow and the length of the arrow must match, otherwise the aim will become very poor. The Ma family's steel nail crossbow arrows are all one foot three inches long, and this crossbow arrow is one foot five inches long. At the same time, because it is heavy and the tail is ridged, it cannot be fired at the same time, but it is certain that this crossbow arrow is much stronger than our Ma Jiayuan Rong crossbow. ”
Xun Yu was silent, and Ma Chao's heart was also quite heavy: the reason why the Ma family's army could sweep away the iron cavalry of other princes was entirely because the Ma family's equipment and weapons were in an absolutely overwhelming position in this era. Its investment in technology is the highest among all princes, and the strategy of 'strengthening the army with science and technology' allows Ma Jiajun to surpass any opponent in technology.
However, the appearance of this crossbow arrow and Cao Jun's thunderbolt made Ma Chao suddenly realize that this era had been matured in advance by those of them who traveled through it. Although this result was expected, Ma Chao never expected that this day would come so soon.
He didn't bring much technology from the afterlife. And the wisdom of the ancients is unimaginable. Even in every battle, Ma Chao tried his best to hide these new weapons of his. But today, it seems that the Ma family's dream of dominating the Han with more than 100,000 elite soldiers has begun to be shattered.
"Let Wei Yan lead 15,000 siege infantry to aid Zhang Liao, be sure to capture Anyi as soon as possible, and bring Han Hao to see me." Ma Chao ordered that he allocate an additional 5,000 siege infantry, just to know if Han Hao had reported this invention to Yuan Shao's entire army.
"Lord!" Just as Xun You was receiving the order and leaving, the ugly brother walked into the big tent with a strange expression: "Lord, Cao Cao has really withdrawn his troops!" ”
"Really withdrawn?" Although he was a little distracted by the steel nail crossbow arrows, after Ma Chao heard the news of Brother Chou, he immediately came to the cowhide square map, pointed to Wei Jun and asked: "Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are at war, how did Cao Cao get out?" ”
"Presumably, it should be a strong man who broke his wrist, right?" Xun You couldn't leave at this time, and as soon as Ma Chao finished asking, he said the countermeasures he had thought of.
"Yes, that's what it looks like." The ugly brother glanced at Xun You, and was not much surprised that Xun You could guess this, and explained: "Cao Cao replenished 20,000 troops that day as for the forbidden camp, and Yu Ban led his 10,000 soldiers to lurk in the woods on the south side late at night......."
"10,000 soldiers and horses is a drop in the bucket for an army of 400,000, even if you want to surprise attack and stop the enemy, it will not help." Ma Chao frowned again, he couldn't figure out what trick Cao Cao was playing.
"Yu Ban's 10,000 army did not move at all that night, and when it was, Cao Cao's army withdrew, and 20,000 soldiers suddenly became outcasts. In less than half an hour, Yuan's army broke through the camp. After that, the Yuan family attacked on a large scale and successfully recovered Wei County and Yangping County. Later, when Cao Cao's army was pursued at the crossing of the Yellow River, Yu Ban's 10,000 troops came out lightly, relying on the familiarity with the camp on the periphery of Yecheng, and several sneak attacks and harassment. On the front line, Zhang He first received the harassment report from the rear, and then fell into Cao Cao's ambush plan, and was beaten to the ground, causing Cao's army to successfully cross the Yellow River and retreat to Guandu. ”
"This really has the consistent demeanor of the Cao family, ruthless, pre-plotting, serial, and finally netting out." Ma Chao sighed after hearing this, and couldn't help but ask Brother Xiang again: "In addition to the loss of 20,000 soldiers and Yuan Shao's recapture of the empty cities of Wei County and Yangping County, is Yuan Shao's loss of soldiers greater than that of Cao Cao?" ”
"Yes, this time, just by surprise, he burned three camps on the outskirts of Yecheng, killed thousands of people, and captured He Mao and more than a dozen other generals. In the battle of ambushing Zhang He, more than 13,000 Yuan troops were killed, and no less than 30,000 were defeated. ”
After Ma Chao heard this, he couldn't help but feel cold again: this time Yuan Cao fought in a big battle, it seems that Yuan Shao took back his homeland and drove Cao Cao back to the north of the Yellow River. But in fact, Cao Cao discarded 20,000 soldiers and horses, but in exchange for the defeat of Yuan's 50,000 army. In addition to getting some false fame, Yuan Shao didn't get half of the benefits. On the contrary, Cao Cao hid from the sky and the sea, and the ghost schemes were endless, and his prestige was even greater than before. Ma Chao couldn't help but wonder, did Yuan Jun, who was celebrating in Yecheng at this time, really win?
"Gongda, let Huang Zhong and Wei Yan both go to Anyi and bring 20,000 siege infantry." Ma Chao increased the weight again, and Leng Yi said: "Let the two of them tell Zhang Liao that we are not short of soldiers and horses now, what we lack is time.......
