Chapter 524: Fierce Battle

On the bank of the Fushui River, located in the middle of Beidi County and Tianshui, Ma Chao received a military order that day, leading six thousand iron cavalry east to intercept Gao Shun's new army, Ma Chao is really blessed, with a mere teenage age in Xiliang has few opponents, Xiliang Ma Jiajun greatly admired Ma Chao, this time Ma Chao thought that six thousand iron cavalry intercepted Gao Shun 50,000 recruits who had not been on the battlefield but to capture, but he was wrong after all, and Zhang Baogao was strictly forbidden to take a look at Gao Shun. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Woo woo~~"

"Knock knock~~"

The fierce war drums resounded in the sky, in the desolate to suffocating horn sound, the flags that could almost cover the sky and the sun surged out from the Gaoshun army camp like a tide, under the guidance of countless flags, a team of soldiers and armor of the yellow turban soldiers Hao Hao opened out, the dark iron armor and bright red robes almost wanted to cover the dust in the sky~~

5,000 heavy infantry slowly advanced with large shields in their hands, and 5,000 heavy shields were connected into a solid shield wall, and each heavy armored infantryman's eyes showed strong self-confidence, and they firmly believed that no matter how brave and good the cavalry was, they could not destroy the solid shield wall. Even though they have never been on the real battlefield, they still have strong self-confidence, all because the leader of this army is Gao Shun.

Five thousand pikemen followed the heavy infantry formation with special horse-repellent spears up to three feet long, 5,000 spears stood solemnly like a forest, piercing the sky, and then 5,000 longbowmen, the archers looked cold, and their eyes showed contempt for everything, although they had hardly shot too many enemies, but this indifferent expression was like a veteran who had harvested countless lives~

Behind the archer formation, there is the main formation of Gao Shun, the general of the Yellow Turban Army.

Under the banner of hunting and fluttering, Gao Shun's swarthy iron armor and blood-red robe, under the escort of the left and right Sima, rode forward slowly, and the rising sun shone on the tassel fluttering in the wind at the top of Gao Shun's iron helmet, showing off a poignant bright red, as if the blood splashed on the battlefield~~ Under the iron helmet, Gao Shun's resolute face became extremely cold.

Battlefield, that's the taste of the battlefield!

Gao Shun took a deep breath, and his flat eyes suddenly became sharper than ever! Some people~~ are born for war, his life will only be meaningful in endless conquest and killing, once he leaves the battlefield and is far away from killing, he will become at a loss and mentally exhausted~~ Gao Shun is such a person!

Finally, there are five thousand iron horses, one color of dark iron armor, one color of blood-red battle robes, and one color of steel knives that shimmer with cold light! This is a well-trained and well-equipped elite cavalry, the cavalry is divided into two armies, the left and right wings, respectively, to protect the left and right flanks of the Yellow Turban Army, so as to prevent Ma Chao from launching a surprise attack from both flanks.

An army of 20,000 gathered into a stream of iron rolling forward.

In front of the Yellow Turban Army, a few miles away, the more spectacular Xiliang Ma Family Army Iron Cavalry is like a vast ocean, swept in~~ The frantic sound of horse hooves is about to step through the earth, and the far horizon is only vast, except for gray, or gray, that ~~ is the color of the leather armor on the Ma Family Iron Horse.

In the endless hustle and bustle, Gao Shun leisurely raised his right arm.

"The general has an order, line up ~~"

"The general has an order, line up ~~"

"The general has an order, line up ~~"

In the terrible long howl, dozens of cavalry heralds followed by Gao Shun galloped in all directions, quickly conveying Gao Shun's military orders, and suddenly, the surging Yellow Turban Army stopped advancing, and five thousand heavy armored infantry quickly spread out to the two wings, followed by five thousand pikemen striding forward from the gaps in the heavy infantry, forming a horse rejection formation that was enough to discourage all the cavalry!

"Boom~~"

Five thousand heavy infantry and five thousand pikemen slammed the big shields and spears in their hands on the grass, making a continuous loud noise, and in the deafening sound, the five thousand archers began to line up coldly, and the longbow, which was almost as tall as a person, had been removed from their backs, and the quiver that was diagonally behind their shoulders was also untied and placed on the outside of the right leg within reach~~

Distance~~

In front of the Ma family's army, Ma Chao's expression was indifferent, but his heart was colder and colder, and he didn't know why the army in front of him made Ma Chao feel a little strange.

This army was not quite the same as any army that Ma Chao had come into contact with before.

The Qiang army on the frontier is a group of wild beasts, cruel and murderous, but simple-minded and tactically dull, and it is not too difficult to deal with; And the army led by the generals under Dong Zhuo of the former Xiliang Army is a group of wolves, a group of wolves that can tear everything apart.

And at this moment, the army in front of him gave Ma Chao the feeling that this was a real army!

This army does not have the murderous aura of veterans, indicating that this is a new soldier, but it has stricter discipline and a more neat appearance. This made Ma Chao feel faintly uneasy in his heart.

However, at this time, he couldn't think about it anymore, Ma Chao's eyes leisurely skimmed a ruthless color that did not match his age, and suddenly raised his right arm, and the surging Ma cavalry behind him began to slow down, and slowly spread out to the two wings~~ The moving horse heads gradually lined up in a neat queue, the fluttering mane gradually stopped, the sharp scimitar was out of the sheath, and the bloodthirsty wolves had shown their hideous fangs~~

The icy aura of slaughter permeated in front of the two armies.

In the suffocating waiting, a fierce general Ma suddenly stepped out of the formation, raised the steel gun in his hand to the top of his head, and raised his head and howled: "Charge~~"

"Roar~~"

In the overwhelming response, a thousand horsemen rode forward slowly, lined up behind the general, and suddenly, the general waved the steel gun in his hand forward, and then galloped out of the horse, galloping towards the Gaoshun army, behind this strong man, a thousand horsemen swore to follow each other ~~

"Huh!?"

Gao Shun's eyebrows tightened suddenly, and he actually only sent a thousand cavalry to charge, what did the enemy want to do? Could it be that he wants to kill himself! Just these 1,000 cavalry can't withstand the two salvos of the Yellow Turban Army's longbowmen, can they still break the Yellow Turban Army's formation!? If so, then it can only be said that Ma Chao is wishful thinking.

。。。。。。

In the formation of the Ma family army in the distance, a bloodthirsty sneer bloomed at the corner of Ma Chao's mouth, the suicidal charge of the Ma family army, of course, it is impossible to wear down the will of the Yellow Turban Army, let alone disintegrate the military heart of the Yellow Turban Army, its only use is to test, to test the accuracy of the archers of this army in front of him, the coordination ability of this army's combat, only knowing oneself and knowing that the other side can win a hundred battles, this way of Ma Chao's warfare. With the mobility of the cavalry of the Xiliang Ma Army, as long as they want to run, even if they are veterans of a hundred battles, they don't want to keep them~

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

Rongshan Village.

Under the faint starry sky, bonfires were lit in the open wilderness, and soldiers lay beside them. In addition to the soldiers who were on vigil, Xiahoudun's 10,000-strong army hurried away continuously, already exhausted, and had quietly fallen asleep at this time. In this hot summer, no one wants to stay in a stuffy tent.

In the middle of the campsite, Xiahoudun was pillowing the back of his head, looking up at the starry sky in a daze.

Although Xiahoudun did not feel that it was appropriate, but at this time, after several years of battlefield killing, Xiahoudun was no longer the stunned young man he once was, and he knew the importance of Hangu Pass to the battlefield pattern of Kanto and Guanxi, but Xiahoudun did not understand why Cao Cao had to start a war with Zhang Bao at this time. Even if Zhang Bao occupied Hangu Pass, he only needed to move an army to firmly occupy the favorable terrain to prevent it from coming east, and then take the opportunity to subdue Lu Bu and rectify the rule of officials, and three years later, Xiahoudun would definitely have the confidence to crush the Yellow Turban Army.

However, although Xiahoudun did not understand Cao Cao's military orders, he still strictly implemented them.

"Dada~~"

When Xiahoudun was thinking about it, he was suddenly awakened by a rapid sound of horses' hooves, sat up in shock, and rode a fast horse that had gone straight to the Chinese army. Suddenly, the rider had already rushed to Xiahoudun, rolled the saddle and dismounted, and said quickly: "General, horse thief, the patrol has been attacked by horse thieves. ”

"Well, horse thief?" Xiahou frowned lightly and asked in a deep voice, "How many people are there?" ”

"There are more than 100 rides."

"More than 100 rides?"

Xiahoudun's eyebrows became more and more frowned, this place has always been infested by horse thieves, this matter is not surprising, but the horse thieves attack the official army patrol is a little abnormal! Under normal circumstances, horse thieves will only attack passing caravans, or ride and plunder defenseless villages, and rarely take the initiative to provoke the official army, and it is even more unique for a horse thief team of more than 100 people to dare to provoke the official army.

Xiahoudun shouted: "Xiahoulan~ Where is it?" ”

The deputy general, Xia Houlan, immediately stepped forward and said sharply: "The last general!" ”

"The last general commands!"

The adjutant general Xia Houlan clenched his fists and took the order, turned around and walked away, and in less than a moment, Xia Houlan gathered five hundred cavalry and swept towards the vast and dark wilderness in front of him, and soon, the sound of tidal hooves gradually faded away and became inaudible.

。。。。。。

The burning bonfires were extinguished one after another, the eastern sky was also exposed to the white belly of the fish, and there was silence in the wilderness, and all the Cao soldiers were still immersed in sleep.

"Heh~~Yawn~~"

Outside the campsite.

A soldier on the night vigil yawned lazily, put the spear in his armpit, walked a few steps to a bush of wild grass, unbuttoned his crotch and peed, and while he was deuriating, the soldier instinctively glanced at the wilderness bathed in the morning light ahead, and out of the corner of his eye, he faintly saw a dark shadow.

The soldier didn't pay attention at first, but after nearly two breaths, he suddenly rose from the spot.

"Riding ~~ cavalry?"

"It looks like it's my own!"

The soldier felt a chill behind him, and hurriedly summoned several other soldiers who were keeping vigil with him, and the colonel, who was sleeping, was also awakened by the panicked shouts of the soldiers, and quickly turned over and sat up to the outer edge of the camp to inspect what was going on. Through the thin light of dawn, I saw a group of black cavalry approaching silently in front of me.

"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and warn!" The little school roared hoarsely, "Blow the trumpet, hurry up and blow the trumpet, hurry~~"

"Woo woo woo~~"

The next moment, the roaring sound of the horn rushed into the sky, and the soldiers of the Cao Army who were sleeping woke up from their sleep one after another, and hurriedly began to assemble under the reprimand of the general, setting up a messy and noisy formation. Escorted by dozens of cavalry soldiers, Xiahoudun hurried over.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and the soldiers of Cao Jun, who had just woken up from their sleep, saw the most terrifying scene in their lives! Many of them could never forget what they saw this morning, even for the rest of their lives, and the horrific scene became a nightmare that haunted them for the rest of their lives.

In the thin morning light, five hundred "cavalry" slowly approached.

There are no fluttering flags, no hideous weapons, no shouts of soldiers and the noise of the battlefield, only hideous iron armor wrapped in the corpses of soldiers, and blood pouring down! A full five hundred soldiers, all of whom had their heads cut off and turned into five hundred headless horsemen, lined up in a scattered cavalry formation, riding their horses and marching slowly.

"Oh my God, what the hell?"

"Oh my God, headless cavalry?"

"Damn, it can't be a ghost soldier, right?"

Cao Jun's military formation suddenly began to be chaotic.

Cold fear spread in the hearts of the soldiers like poisonous weeds, and everyone looked at each other in panic.

"Oh hiss~~" The deputy general behind Su Li Xiahoudun gasped and said in a mouthful of cold air, "This~~ What's going on?" ”

Xiahoudun only felt that his eyes were dark, and he almost fell headlong, and only after a while did he grit his teeth and say: "Xiahoulan has already died in battle, and these five hundred headless cavalry are only afraid that they are the five hundred soldiers who pursued the horse thief last night." ”

"What?" The adjutant general was stunned when he heard this, and immediately lost his voice, "This is impossible!" ”

"Big brother!"

The adjutant general's voice fell, and there was already a terrible howl around him, Xiahou Ming pulled his legs and rushed towards the cavalry at the front of the five hundred headless cavalry, Xiahou Lan and Xiahou Ming are brothers, even if Xiahou Lan loses his head, Xiahou Ming can still identify him through the armor on Xia Houlan's body.

"Woo woo~~"

At this time, the distant horizon suddenly sounded the sound of a continuous horn, and the battle-hardened Xiahou Xuan's face changed dramatically in an instant, and he said quickly: "It's not good, the enemy is attacking!" Array, circular defensive array, turn the grain and grass carts sideways to form an outer wall, fast~~"

"Woo~~"

"Woo~~"

"Woo~~"

When the terrified Cao army turned the grain and grass carts sideways, and the end to each other formed a defensive formation, ghostly cavalry appeared from the four directions at the same time.

However, there are not many people, and there are only more than 100 riders in each direction.

As a result, there was an extremely strange scene in Rongshan Village, less than 500 cavalry were divided into four teams, and they put on a posture of swallowing 10,000 Cao Jun troops in one bite, and crushed them violently from the four directions of southeast, south, northwest, and northwest. And the whole 10,000 Cao army was huddled together in the wilderness, panicking all day long.
