How can a target who has been used as bait be like a dangerous poisonous snake, testing its faith?

And after it bites the target, it looks for another target?

This action of the striker of the trouble-relieving soldiers also made Sima Guanning puzzled.

Could it be that they ran to bite Zhaoguan and retreated eastward, just to make a turnaround run? This is absolutely impossible.

Guan Ning only groaned and reminded, "General, Hengjiangjin and Danglikou are not under our control. If they go east, they can go to these two places in the southeast, and they can go to Fuling Duwei in the northeast......"

Zhang Liao listened and said coldly, "Yes, you must not give Ma Zhong any chance!" I'm going to intercept him right away! ”

"Now?" Guan Ning was surprised, and then pointed to the camp in front of him, "The soldiers and horses ambushed here by the Relief Soldiers are about to be surrounded and annihilated, so it's a pity to leave now?" ”

Zhang Liao said lightly, "It's just that the defense has been broken." Their attrition is still bearable. The Relief Battalion is also a force of nearly 3,000 people, and the soldiers are not much different from us. Zhang Meng's lieutenant battalion lost, and the other party was already more than us. We are now only relying on the sharpness of the cavalry and the strength of the weapons to outwit them. If you really want to eat these people in front of you, the loss will be not small. ”

Then the anger in his eyes burned, "The most important thing now is not to let Ma Zhong, a bastard, escape!" ”

Guan Ning listened, and didn't dare to say anything about the division of troops.

There were still two cavalry battalions left on their side, with a total of more than 600 cavalry and 1,23 war horses.

If you really want to divide the troops, those trouble-relieving soldiers who are suppressed in the ruins and dare not move may really dare to rush out and lose a fight to the death.

You must know that after Zhang Meng's battalion was completely annihilated, all their war horses were also taken away by the troublesome soldiers, and now they don't know the team that can fight on horseback.

There was not enough cavalry to deter, and the Relief Battalion would have already stormed out to destroy these siege equipment.

Guan Ning regretted it a little at this time, the four infantry battalions were left to Zhang De, and he knew that he should leave one to deal with the current situation.

His four infantry battalions set up a siege posture and the forward of the Annoying Battalion fought against each other, but the defense was broken in three or two strokes on the opposite side, and he directly threw away his belongings and ran away. Although Zhang De's infantry battalion launched a pursuit, it was left behind by the other party and ate all the way, and now it can only chase all the way.

But if Zhang Liao's two cavalry battalions could maneuver and intercept the advance led by Ma Zhong himself, the situation would be completely different.

Even if they failed to defeat them in one fell swoop in the field battle, after joining up with Zhang De's infantry battalion, it would be enough to eat that part of the strong.

Then the two combined troops, and then turned back and hit those stumps like frightened birds, which was naturally easy.

Guan Ning was planning for Zhang Liao, so he heard Zhang Liao shouting, "Bring the map." ”

Guan Ning hurriedly took out the map and presented it.

Zhang Liao waved his hand and spread it on his horse, and then became a little heavier, "Ma Zhong will definitely come here!" ”

Guan Ning leaned in to take a look, slightly surprised, "This is not where they camped before. ”

Zhang Liao sneered, "Hmph, Lu Bu and I were also prodigal soldiers back then, and we know the hard work of accumulating family wealth little by little. You see this Ma Zhong uses soldiers, every time he is cunning, and he doesn't dare to invest all his family resources at once. I can't know his mentality best! ”

"If I'm not mistaken, it's very likely that he went to join up with the previous soldiers and horses, and concentrate the remaining forces to save the Nanban battalion and the elite soldiers of the violent death soldiers here. How could he be willing to give up these belongings here. ”

Guan Ning came to his senses when he heard this, "General, if you say this, we can actually wait here for him to come to his rescue." At the same time, he quickly informed Zhang De and asked his infantry to follow up, so that we could completely encircle without attacking, and concentrate all our efforts to strangle Ma Zhong's near and far. ”

Zhang Liao listened to it and groaned, "What you said also makes sense." However, our current forces are slightly weaker. If we really want to fight, although I am confident that I can easily defeat them, I am afraid that the troublesome soldiers will build a camp and fight a hard battle with us.

Even if we are here at any cost, even if they grind to death, what will happen to Hefei? We don't have the time or the energy to do that.

What's more, Ma Zhong was able to go to Zhaoguan, lure Zhang De away, and destroy our riding cooperation, which shows that he actually understands the importance of Zhaoguan to us. He can go and come back, but he may not come and go. If you really want to be blocked by him, when Sun Quan's army enters Chaohu Lake from the mouth of the water, then it will be too late for us to do anything. ”

Guan Ning already understood Zhang Liao's words, and he also began to face up to how difficult this annoying army was.

Although the wolf cavalry in Bingzhou is powerful in the field, the combat effectiveness of the annoying soldiers is not so weak.

After the destruction of Zhang Meng's battalion, the strikers of the Relief Battalion, which captured war horses and replenished mobility, could leave Zhang De's infantry battalion behind.

Although their thunderbolts were fierce and terrifying, the supply of projectiles was not so easy.

With these more than 600 cavalry alone, the effort required to collect and carry stones was not much easier than fighting a battle.

Although the wolf ride in Bingzhou is a fast knife, this time it encountered hob meat.

Guan Ning's gaze wandered across the map, and soon his eyes lit up, and he understood Zhang Liao's intentions.

"For now, if you want to deal with them completely, you only need to interrupt this interlocking offensive and disrupt their rhythm. Then we should do everything we can to prevent Ma Zhong and the rest of his army from converging. ”

Zhang Liao glanced at Guan Ning with satisfaction, and then called his own soldiers, "Go and bring those scouts we have captured." ”

The soldiers did not dare to delay, and soon escorted a few prisoners covered in bruises.

These captives had been completely repaired and convinced, and they looked at Zhang Liao with fear one by one.

Zhang Liao looked at them coldly and asked, "A few of you, think about it, the three battalion heads that Ma Zhong left behind to deal with the Liyang Army are all there." Draw the map to Ben General, and if you draw it badly, you will cut it on the spot! ”

When the captives heard this, they were all horrified and said, "The little ones don't dare to hide it, and they must draw it truthfully." ”

The captives were unbound and pushed into the mud one by one, and they did not dare to raise their heads, trembling and sketching on the ground with stones.

The scouts of this era didn't know anything about scale, but they only roughly understood the direction and distance.

They scribbled their paintings, but they looked like they.

Guan Ning personally got off the horse and asked one by one, and there was nothing wrong with what he said, but there were some gaps in the expression of distance and proximity.

Guan Ning was frightened again, and seeing that there was no more to gain, he went to Zhang Liao and pointed roughly on the map.

Zhang Liao looked at the map for a while, and couldn't help but sneer on his face, "Okay, no matter where you flee from these two places, it's a dead end." ”
