Chapter 241: The Soldiers Are Forced to Conquer

"Quick!! Stop the thief, don't let him hurt the eldest son!! A member of the Xiliang generals shouted loudly, and some of the die-hard people of the Dong family immediately rushed to stop them.

"Wow~~!! Death to those who stand in my way~!! Ma Zongheng held the dragon blade in his hand, his fierce eyes were round, his mouth opened and roared, the thunder in the sky shook, and in an instant, he beheaded several generals in a row, which can be described as invincible and fierce, and the generals who went to stop him were forced to retreat and become a mess. Dong Huang has long lost his initial majesty, and he is so frightened that his soul is about to fly away, and he is busy riding a horse to escape. Ma Zongheng killed all the way, unstoppable, Zhang Liao led troops to support the left and right, and the Xiliang soldiers could not be killed.

The terrible sound of hooves, like around his ears, Dong Huang couldn't help but tremble, only to feel that the person chasing behind him was not a person at all, but a hungry ghost, who wanted to devour everything in the world and had a gluttonous appetite!!

"Release the arrow, release the arrow quickly, and never let that murderer get close to the eldest prince!!" A Xiliang general was so anxious that his eyebrows were like fire, how could he take care of so much, and when he shouted, the surrounding soldiers and crossbowmen reacted one after another, and they were busy pulling their bows and crossbows to shoot towards the horses. Ma Zongheng's face was shocked, but he also felt that Chiwu was fighting viciously, and he was a little tired, and Ma Zongheng looked at Chiwu like a brother of flesh and blood, and he didn't want it to be damaged, so he was busy holding the horse, flying dragon blades, and forming a blade field, cutting the arrows one by one. The terrible screams rose one after another, but many Xiliang soldiers were accidentally injured by stray arrows, and at this time, they saw a cold arrow shooting towards Ma Zongheng from the back oblique stab, and Ma Zongheng seemed to be attracted by the random arrows in front of him, and he was about to be shot.

"The thief doesn't think about my lord!!" At the last moment, Zhang Liao arrived from behind and cut through the cold arrow with a halberd.

However, Ma Zongheng didn't seem to appreciate it, although his face was full of blood and sweat, he still looked leisurely and calm, and said lightly: "Wenyuan, you're late again." ”

When Zhang Liao heard this, he was angry, and secretly thought that he would have to change to a peerless treasure horse in the future!

At the same time, the sound of killing suddenly broke out in the rear, and Xiliang's troops were defeated like a mountain, but they heard the roar of Pang De from above.

"Lord, the thief ambush has been killed by us, the grain team is fine, and the red ghost is here to help in the battle~~!!"

Pound's loud voice shouted, and the soldiers in the horses and all the troops raised their arms and shouted. Ma Zongheng frowned, and when he saw Dong Huang who had fled away, he said, "This red ghost is also slow!" ”

When Zhang Liao heard this, he was slightly stunned, looking at Ma Zongheng's natural look, he couldn't help but secretly think: "Could it be that the lord never worried that the grain team would be robbed by thieves from the beginning?" ”

So, as Pang De and Hu Che'er's troops arrived one after another, the Xiliang army had lost its fighting spirit, Dong Huang urgently ordered the withdrawal of troops, Ma Zongheng and others fought fiercely, and after only covering up for a while, they also retreated.

Two hours later, at sunset and dusk, Ma Zongheng learned from the scouts who came back to report that Hengwukou was not far ahead. The terrain of Hengwukou is steep, and the passage is narrow, and if you want to lead to the east of the river, you must first pass through this Hengwukou.

Therefore, it is not difficult to see that this Hengwukou is a place where soldiers must fight, it is said that there have been wars here for many years, there are unjust souls of the dead within a radius of more than ten miles, and the surrounding land is dyed blood red, and when it comes to night, the remnant sun shines down, like a blood-colored hell, it is a great murderous place.

Ma Zongheng had heard of the murderous name of Hengwukou before he came, and he also expected that Li Ru would also see the importance of this place, and he would definitely order people to camp here, so he ordered people to clean up the battlefield while letting the soldiers camp not far from the mountain, by the river.

That night, inside the tent. After a day of fierce fighting, Ma Zongheng was discussing with the generals.

"The Xiliang ambush has come out, and as long as you pass this Hengwukou, the place behind you will be a plain land, so you don't have to worry about it anymore." Thinking of his own lord coming so nonsense today, Gao Ran was still afraid for a while, but now his army is deep in the hinterland of the enemy, but if his own lord suffers any damage, the army will definitely suffer an unimaginable blow, so that the Xiliang soldiers can take the opportunity to encircle and suppress, and the consequences can be imagined.

"Having said that, Li Ru is resourceful, and he has to be cautious." When Zhang Liao heard this, his face turned pale, and he said with a steady look.

"Hey! Just a weak Confucian student, afraid of a bird! As long as the lord says a word, the red ghost will take the head of Li Ru for you! Pound stared, with fluffy hair and shaking his head, like a lion showing off his might.

Ma Zongheng subconsciously touched his chin, thought for a while, and said: "Wenyuan is right, this Li Wenyou is not an ordinary person. And I don't know if it's here. Red Devil, don't underestimate these strategists, otherwise once you are entangled by them, sooner or later you will suffer a big loss! ”

When Pang De heard this, he opened his mouth, but he didn't dare to collide with Ma Zongheng, and then he saw Ma Zongheng suddenly staring at him, and said with a smile: "Hehe, don't worry, my lord, I just remember!" Moreover, Jiguan is the barrier of Luoyang, and now that Yuan Benchu is leading the army to attack, then Li Wenyou may have gone to Jiguan to command. ”

"It's better to be like this, I don't want to see you lose all the way and run back to cry and cry for your mother." Ma Zongheng also smiled and said with a bit of provocation.

"If the lord really thinks like this, the red ghost won't follow it~! Lao Zhang has made great contributions repeatedly, don't fight with me, this horizontal black mouth will be taken down by my red ghost! Sure enough, Pound was furious, looking like he had to go. Zhang Liao didn't want to fight for merit, so he didn't want to. As for Gao Yan, who is cunning by nature, he is also happy to let this drudgery fall on others.

"Hey! Red Devil, don't forget to have me~! At this time, Hu Che'er also stared, full of fighting spirit. It turned out that Hu Che'er saw Pang De and Zhang Liao, two young people, fighting before the war, and in recent years, they have repeatedly performed miraculous feats, and their military positions have been promoted higher and higher, and he has done more logistics things, and seeing the newcomers making meritorious contributions and becoming famous, he is naturally uncomfortable in his old heart.

Seeing Hu Che'er so excited, Ma Zongheng couldn't help but be slightly stunned, so he shook his head and smiled, knowing Hu Che'er's thoughts, and said: "If that's the case, then let the red ghost be your deputy general, and the two of you will capture this Hengwukou together." But you two can remember that you must not fight for merit and corruption, which will damage the unity of the army, otherwise you will be severely punished! Red Devil, although our army has always spoken with strength, but in terms of qualifications, Lao Hu followed me two years earlier than you after all, you have to be more respectful and not offended! ”

When Hu Che'er heard this, he immediately smiled on his face, and said secretly: "The lord is still humane, remember to protect me, the old man, this time I will definitely make a great contribution, and I can't live up to the lord's heart!" ”

On the other side, when Pound heard this, he responded a little dejectedly. So, the horse made a transfer at a high speed. Hu Che'er and Pang De each led the army order. When the allocation was finished, the people dispersed to rest.

The next day, Ma Zongheng heard that the spies had reported that the Xiliang soldiers had indeed camped on Hengwukou, and Dong Huang's remnants had withdrawn there, and after several explorations in the surrounding area, they found that the enemy's strength was about 8,000 people.

"It seems that this Hengwukou is guarded by that Dong Huang, no wonder he was able to make arrangements so quickly yesterday." Ma Zongheng touched his chin, and at this time he was immediately on top of a mountain, just in time to look at Hengwukou in the distance.

"My lord, you see that the mountains around Hengwukou are steep, and it is easy to be ambushed when you go, and the thieves are camped on the valley, but if our army comes to attack, they can attack them with random arrows on the valley. Moreover, the gap path is narrow and difficult to walk, and when passing by, thieves can also fall rocks to attack it, and it is really difficult to capture this horizontal black mouth! "The precipitousness of Hengwukou, even Zhang Liao, who is known as a general, can't help but change color.

Ma Zongheng heard the meaning of Zhang Liao's words, and said, "Do you mean to give up on capturing this Hengwukou?" ”

"No, Liao means that the lord doesn't have to rush to attack, it's better to recharge his energy first and find another opportunity." Zhang Liao's face changed slightly, and he said.

"Although Hengwukou is dangerous, but the thieves have not been defeated for a long time, and the army's heart is not stable, if you don't attack at this time, wait for it to restore its morale, and then try to break it, it will be difficult to reach the sky! The so-called opportunity cannot be lost, and it will never come again. Ma Zongheng's face was still calm, looking at Hengwukou, and said lightly.

Zhang Liao was obedient and anxious, but when he saw Ma's eyes shining, he knew that he had already made up his mind, so he had to give up.

But he said that he had made up his mind under Ma Zongheng to take Hengwukou urgently. Let's go back to yesterday at dusk.

It is said that Dong Huang retreated to Hengwukou in defeat, and his breath was not yet smooth, but someone had already greeted him under the gorge.

I saw that under the slanting sun, the hundreds of cavalry, each wearing heavy armor, the black heavy armor carved with the appearance of a jackal and a tiger, each of them is burly and strong, powerful and powerful, at a glance you know that it is one in a hundred elites.

"Black Jackal Tiger! Could it be that Li Ru is here, he is like a god, could he have expected that I would lose to that little pony thief! Dong Huang's face changed, and he couldn't help but feel a little more angry on his face. It is said that this black jackal tiger is an elite army under Dong Zhuo's command that is even more powerful than the Take-off Bear Army and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and each of the soldiers has a martial arts of ten, and it is said that the generals of the army are even more enemies of 100 people. This force is specially used to protect Dong Zhuo and the extremely important people under his command. Even Dong Huang's identity cannot be matched. As far as Dong Huang knows, this black jackal tiger is divided into three parts, one is by Dong Zhuo's side, one is by Li Ru's side, and the last one is in Yicheng, guarding the Dong family.

With the rise of the North-South Coalition Army, the situation in Luoyang is now chaotic, so it is impossible for Dong Zhuo to come to Hedong, and he has always attached great importance to his family, and it is impossible to transfer another Black Jackal Tiger from Yicheng.

It is said that Li Ru married Dong Zhuo's second daughter, that is, Dong Huang's cousin, so Li Ru is also Dong Huang's brother-in-law. However, the relationship between the two is not very close. After all, Li Ru is deeply favored by Dong Zhuo and is the brainchild of the Xiliang Army. Whether it is fame, status or qualifications, Dong Huang is more than a step behind Li Ru. If Li Ru has the heart to compete with Dong Huang in the future, I am afraid that Dong Huang will lose his momentum in an instant.

Dong Huang is also well aware of this principle, so he has always been very jealous of Li Ru. Now, I thought that Li Ru deliberately came to see his jokes!

"The eldest prince, the military advisor has been waiting in the tent for a long time, and I also ask the eldest prince to move to the throne." A black jackal general's general rushed to the horse, but when he saw that he was tall and mighty, his eyes were terrifying, and his face was expressionless, he looked even more imposing. The generals behind Dong Huang were all shocked, although they were not angry, but they did not dare to offend.

It can be known that every black jackal tiger is a diehard loyalist of the Dong family, and he has won Dong Zhuo's trust, and he can even be said to be a cronie, and he can become the general of the black jackal, which means that he has the strength of a hundred invincible people!

"Okay, I got it. Wait for me, General. Proud as Dong Huang, but he didn't dare to offend the general of the black jackal, and after seeing that he should be right, he turned his head and ordered the generals behind him.
