Chapter 588: Tricking the Horse
Although Ma Chao is brave, Zhang Liao is not afraid, but there is still a queen in his army, and he can't go on a business trip, he can't let go of his hands and feet to fight here, and he can only quickly leave the battlefield. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhang Liao quickly glanced at the battlefield, and instantly understood the situation in front of him in his mind, the cavalry that came was about two thousand, divided into two roads, in addition to Ma Chao in the lead, there was also a cavalry of Han Sui, slightly behind Ma Chao, rushing behind.
Seeing Ma Chao coming over with hundreds of horsemen's momentum, Zhang Liao suddenly shouted: "I heard that Ma Teng has a tiger Ma Chao, a young hero, brave and good at fighting, but he dares to fight with a certain battle, compare with each other!"
Queen Fu Shou heard that Zhang Liao was going to fight Ma Chao alone, and couldn't help but be anxious, and said in a low voice: "Xiaoyu, the general should not take risks in person......
Diao Chan said in a low voice: "The soldiers are not tired of deceit, and the general is very ...... on the battlefield The wise cannot believe his words. ”
Ma Chao, who was rushing over there, heard that Zhang Liao actually knew him, and he was going to fight him alone, so he immediately reined in his horse, led the cavalry to stop thirty steps away, and said sharply: "A certain is Ma Chao, and Zhang Liao is on the other side, and he is about to ......compare himself with you."
"Good!" Zhang Liao waved his hand: "Shoot!"
Thirty steps were within the range of the crossbow arrows, and the cavalry that stopped was a group of targets, and with Zhang Liao's order, the guards who had already wound up immediately fired their crossbows and shot over!
Arrows rained down on Ma Chao and the cavalry that followed him.
"Quickly dodge!" Ma Chao was shocked, and hurriedly turned his horse to avoid the block, Pang De on his side saw the opportunity faster, and waved his knife to block several crossbow arrows for Ma Chao, both of them were top masters, and the crossbow arrows that were shot in the past were blocked by all of them.
However, Ma Chao escaped, but the war horse under him was not so lucky, he was hit by several arrows, flipped to the ground, and threw Ma Chao, who was blocking arrows, down.
The hundreds of cavalry on Ma Chao's side suffered heavy losses, and with their stagnation, most of the cavalry behind them were forced to stop, and the advantage of running was lost, which was no different from Zhang Liao's side.
"Zhang Liao!" Ma Chao jumped up from the ground in embarrassment, pointed his spear at Zhang Liao, with a sinister face, and scolded: "Shameless child......"
Zhang Liao smiled and waved his hand again: "Zhongtun stays behind, and the front and back and left and right four tuns charge!" Hello with crossbow arrows! ”
"Kill!"
The guards shouted in unison, except for the hundred people who stayed behind, all the rest rushed towards Ma Chao, and the crossbow arrows slashed their heads and covered their faces.
"Retreat!" When Ma Chao saw the crossbow arrows coming again, his face changed greatly, and he hurriedly led the soldiers to retreat, and even Yan Xing, who rushed over with him, had to retreat.
The battle situation reversed, and Zhang Liao chased and killed Ma Chao.
This time, Ma Chao brought all elite cavalry, but their rush was stopped by Zhang Liao's deception, losing their advantage, and the power of the crossbow was too against the sky, wave after wave did not stop, not giving Ma Chao any chance to counterattack, so that Ma Chao and others had no choice but to retreat again and again, extremely aggrieved, and nearly half of the cavalry was lost in dozens of steps.
Ma Chao was extremely angry in his heart, and wanted to turn back and recoil, but instead he was hit by an arrow, was in the leg, almost fell, and was hurriedly snatched away by Pang De next to him.
Eight waves of crossbow arrows were released, Zhang Liao saw that Ma Chao was hit by the arrow, and the enemy had no offensive momentum, so he immediately ordered the guards to return to the army, and laughed loudly: "Haha, how dare the pony come back?" ”
I didn't want Ma Chao to ignore the injury, snatched a horse and turned over, reined in the horse, pointed the spear at Zhang Liao again, his handsome face was blue, and when he saw Zhang Liao returning to the army, he shouted: "Their crossbow arrows have been exhausted, kill them, and swear to kill Zhang Liao!"
The remaining hundreds of horsemen beside him were all excited when they saw that the young general was still so fierce when he was injured, and they all rode back one after another, and even recoiled again, shouting: "Swear to kill Zhang Liao!"
Zhang Liao took his guards to speed up the return to the army, and seeing that Ma Chao was chasing after him again, he shouted unceremoniously: "Turn back, shoot up!"
Airplanes!
Another wave of crossbow arrows was sent out, Zhang Liao has always advocated leaving hole cards, and two of the ten crossbow arrows of the pro-guard battalion were left, which came in handy again at this time, and Ma Chao's cavalry lost dozens of horses.
"Kill, fight to the death!" I didn't want Ma Chao to be angry, regardless of the casualties, and rushed over with arrows.
"Arrows! Shoot the horse! Zhang Liao ordered again.
The last wave of crossbow arrows from the guard battalion was fired, and dozens of enemy cavalry fell, and those cavalry were a little confused, but Ma Chao gritted his teeth and did not retreat, and took the lead and rushed straight over.
The cavalry behind him, along with Han Sui's cavalry, also rushed over.
Stunned and afraid of the horizontal, horizontal afraid of not dying, Zhang Liao has always been very horizontal on the battlefield, but at this time he met the horizontal to the point of not dying, he couldn't help frowning, he didn't expect Ma Chao to be so fierce, at this time, the guard's crossbow and ten arrows were empty, and it was extremely troublesome to load the arrow again, and it was too late to load it again.
Although he killed nearly half of Ma Chao's cavalry with his repeater crossbow design, Ma Chao plus Han Sui's soldiers and horses still had about 1,500 cavalry, and his strength was still at a disadvantage of three to one.
The terrain in this area is open, which is favorable to the galloping of cavalry, and is not suitable for defense, and then the valley road narrows hundreds of paces to the east, where defense can minimize the advantage of cavalry and the gap in strength.
"Quickly retreat to the valley mouth!" Zhang Liao drank loudly and led the guards to quickly gallop towards the narrow valley pass.
When he was running back, Zhang Liao ordered in a low voice: "Zhongtun guards the Zhonggong and quickly enters the valley, the front and rear two tuns are equipped with crossbows, and the left and right tuns are scattered and marched, ready for battle, and listen to orders at any time!" ”
Ma Chao saw that Zhang Liao really had no arrows, and couldn't help but be shocked, leading the cavalry to chase directly, and shouted again: "Chase!" Leave the sect and leave Zhang Liao! ”
Zhang Liao's personal guards were divided into three groups in the retreat, a wave of 100 people guarding the queen in front, a wave in the middle, and the rest of the waves followed Zhang Liao behind, while fleeing, while looking back from time to time at the enemy cavalry that was about to chase behind him, his expression seemed to be very nervous.
Seeing that Ma Chao's cavalry was about to catch up with Zhang Liao's guards, and the spear was about to stab them, Zhang Liao suddenly shouted: "Return to the horse pistol!" ”
Brush!
The two hundred guards brushed sideways in their hands, dodging the blades stabbed by the enemy cavalry, and the spears in their hands stabbed back suddenly, as if they had been tempered by thousands of strokes, which was a trick that the cavalry in Zhang Liao's army must practice to return to the horse pistol, and the soldiers who could enter the guard battalion returned to the horse pistol even more sophisticated.
Retreating directly is not Zhang Liao's style at all, and it is also the most stupid choice to turn around and flee under the pursuit of the cavalry.
Sure enough, Ma Chao's cavalry was unguarded, and they couldn't hold the momentum of the forward gallop at all, and nearly 100 horsemen died directly under the return horse gun, and dozens of horsemen were seriously injured.
It was Zhang Liao who greeted Ma Chao, Zhang Liao used a hook and sickle, and did not return the horse pistol, but chopped off Ma Chao's war horse head with a knife.
Zhang Liao didn't expect the return saber to kill Ma Chao, his goal was the war horse, this war horse was not Ma Chao's original war horse at all, it was not good to run in, how could he dodge, Ma Chao rolled to the ground again.
"Zhang Liao'er!" Ma Chao fell off the war horse twice in a row, which was an unprecedented shame, and he was extremely angry in his heart, but he didn't have time to scold angrily, Zhang Liao's hook and sickle had already slashed at him who fell to the ground.
The knives and knives are all at the point, either the neck and chest, or the arms and arms, and the suppressed Ma Chao rolls over and over again, but he can't get up.
Several guards around Ma Chao stepped forward to help, but they were all killed by Zhang Liao, and Ma Chao's situation was extremely dangerous for a while.
