Chapter 198: Fierce Battle
Lingzuka Mountain connects the Yellow River branches, dividing Wudu and Hanyang counties. Although this mountain is not large, although the mountain range is not long, it is also quite steep. And there is only one passage in the mountain, but it is a place where soldiers must fight.
Ma Chao set up the camp on the slope of the middle section of the mountain road, firmly guarding the danger, and with only more than 10,000 people, he turned away the 200,000 troops of Yan Xing and the other three-person coalition army, and did not enter an inch at all.
Yan Xing, Li Dao, and Guo Yan couldn't attack it, so they had to find another way. After discussing for a long time, he finally had to coerce the hunters in the mountains to act as guides, take people on the trail, outflank the past, and prepare to surprise from both sides, breaking through Ma Chao's camp in one fell swoop, and capturing and killing Ma Chao.
However, although Ma Chao is usually impulsive, at this critical time, he is very calm and calm for his father Ma Teng and the future of the Ma family. When the thought turned, he hid all the possibilities in his chest, and he had a plan in his heart.
Ma Chao called the deputy general of the guard, carefully instructed him to defend the cottage carefully, and he took 5,000 people to walk to the camp for two minutes, carefully investigated the terrain, and hid in a densely wooded place.
Although Ma Chao was not sure that Yan Xing and the others would find a trail to outflank from the rear. But there is nothing wrong with being careful, and at this critical time, no point can be ignored.
Ma Chao stood quietly beside a big tree with a big gun, his expression was calm, his eyes were shining, staring ahead without blinking, his ears seemed to be pricked up, and he looked engrossed.
Time passed slowly, and suddenly, some noise came from afar!
"Silence!"
Ma Chao looked back and drank solemnly, and suddenly the whole army was silent, and the five thousand soldiers immediately cheered up and clenched the blades in their hands.
At this time, the camp was being violently attacked by Li Dao Guo Yan's army!
Batches of soldiers like moths to the fire, desperately poured up the slope, under the camp, there have been built densely packed corpses of different deaths, blood flowing down the slope, there is a murmuring sound!
However, even with such a heavy loss, Li Dao Guo Yan didn't seem to feel the slightest distress, and every time he withdrew the next batch, he replaced it with another batch, and the whole thing was endless.
"Reported, I'm running out of arrows!"
When the adjutant general heard this, his face became even more solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Tell the people behind to hurry up to make arrows, order the army, and release boulders and rolling logs!" ”
"Whoa!"
Another wave of enemy troops rushed up, but instead of arrows from the sky, they were greeted by a row of huge logs with two people hugging each other!
Thundered
Although the rough rolling wood is not equipped with iron nails, the huge weight and the condescending terrain make it no less lethal than the arrow array, and its deterrent power is greater!
In the face of this huge rolling log, the enemy soldiers screamed and roared and retreated, and those who ran slowly were directly crushed to pieces, and some were even crushed into minced meat!
The cold light in Ma Chao's eyes flickered, and he quietly looked at the people and horses who came out of the mountains and forests opposite, and sneered in his heart!
"Yan Xing, this is your death date!"
Ma Chao thought silently in his heart, but he still didn't give an order.
He wanted to see how many people Yan Xing had brought this time, so that he could formulate corresponding countermeasures so that he could catch them all!
Fifty, a hundred, a thousand
"About 3,000 people!"
Ma Chao couldn't stop laughing in his heart.
Three thousand, the whole sent to die!
"The whole army is ready!"
Ma Chao let out a low snort, and the army behind him moved in unison. Ma Chao stared closely at the approaching Yan Xing army, silently calculating the best charging distance in his heart.
Yan Xing's army walked outside the woods where Ma Chao was, the front army in the army
"Kill!"
Ma Chao shouted violently, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, shaking the entire woods trembling. He was agile and vigorous, and with a few fierce charges, he slaughtered out of the woods and entered Yan Xingzhong's army.
The five thousand troops behind him followed, like a torrent, ran over the woods, and rushed out after him!
Pieces of swords and spears flickered rapidly, and Yan Xing's army was suddenly cut in half!
In an instant, the unprepared Yan marching army was in chaos!
"Ma Chao!"
Yan Xing shouted and shouted, trying in vain to stabilize the morale of the army, and when he turned around, he saw his old enemy Ma Chao at a glance!
"Yan Xing!"
Ma Chao saw that the army was like a wolf and a tiger, and had already cut Yan Xingjun into two sections, and was already in absolute upper hand, so he immediately turned around, and rushed forward under his feet, a big gun was made by him like the Yangtze River, and the shadow of the gun poured down, all the way through, there was no enemy, only a corpse was left.
"Yan Xing, this is where you are buried!"
Ma Chao picked up a few soldiers with one shot, and approached the front army at a very fast speed, Yan Xing, right in front of him.
"Ma Chao Xiao'er, don't think that your martial arts are world-famous, how can I, Yan Xing, be afraid of you!?"
Yan Xing held a spear in his hand and shouted angrily, and the surrounding soldiers hurriedly divided a passage, and Yan Xing rushed up to meet Ma Chao.
"Die!"
Yan Xing kicked his feet, flew up, shook the spear in his palm, and smashed it down on Ma Chao's head!
He kicked out two small pits in the hard ground, and the screeching sound of spears piercing the air made the soldiers around them feel dazzled and deaf, and their heads seemed to explode!
"Hey, good time!"
Ma Chao didn't need to dodge, his body squatted slightly, the barrel of the gun in his palm shook, and the tail of the gun swept away several soldiers who rushed up, the tip of the gun flickered, and went straight to Yan Xing!
"Dangchang!"
I only heard a clear sound, but I saw the fire flickering.
Ma Chao's spear vibrate, and when it touched Yan Xing's spear, it immediately swung away, but the gun path did not change, but it still went straight to Yan Xing's throat!
Yan Xing's face changed, he pulled his spear, drew half a circle in the air, and opened the horse's long spear, and then followed this force, turned over and withdrew a few meters, and fell to the ground.
Ma Chao has the upper hand with one blow, how can he give his opponent a chance to breathe?
Immediately slip your feet and follow up at the same time!
At the moment when Yan Xing landed, Ma Chao's big gun also arrived!
"Dangchang!"
Yan Xing didn't have time to make a move, so he had to continue to block, but he was shocked back a few steps.
Ma Chao was unforgiving, followed up step by step, shot after shot, and with just one stabbing trick, he forced Yan Xing to have no power to fight back!
Yan Xing made a few moves, and his arms were shocked to the point of numbness, and in the face of Ma Chao's indomitable momentum, he was already timid in his heart.
He was not Ma Chao's opponent in the first place, but now that he is cowardly, how can he resist it?
After only two combinations, Yan Xing was pierced through the arm by Ma Chao with a shot!
"Yan Xing, die!"
Ma Chao let out a long roar, the big gun flashed, and in an instant, he crossed the space, and he was about to stab Yan Xingli under the gun.
Faced with this shot that couldn't be avoided at all, boundless fear rose in Yan Xing's heart, and in the face of Ma Chao's cold gaze, the crazy color in Yan Xing's eyes flashed, and he gritted his teeth and shouted, he didn't care about the big gun that was stabbed in the chest, but he threw the spear in his hand by himself!
"If you want to die, I will also pull you to die with you!"
"How daring!"
Ma Chao glared angrily, the big gun move in his right hand did not change at all, his feet moved slightly, his whole body suddenly deviated, flashed the spear that came from the lightning, and then slapped the spear out with a wave of his palm, and smashed several soldiers.
At the same time, only a pop was heard, and Yan Xing was pierced in the chest by Ma Chao's shot!
Yan Xing's eyes widened, and he looked at Ma Chao for a moment, the divine light in his eyes gradually dissipated, and then he tilted his head and died.
Ma Chao withdrew his spear, stepped forward, grabbed Yan Xing's head, twisted it slightly, and unscrewed it hard!
"Yan Xing is dead, why don't you give up your weapons and surrender!?"
Ma Chao raised Yan Xing's head high, and at the same time stepped into the scattered military formation with a gun, and the big guns were vertical and horizontal, killing wantonly!
Seeing that they had lost nearly 10,000 people, they had not yet entered the cottage, and they couldn't help but feel anxious.
"What did Yan Xing do with that kid? Didn't Orion say that it would only take an hour and a half? ”
Originally, according to Orion's words, it only took an hour and a half for Yan Xing's department to outflank him. Now that the hour has passed, there has been no movement, and Li Guo and the others are suspicious while scolding.
"Did something happen?"
The two of them looked at the fierce battle of Ma Chao's camp from afar, and were thinking about whether to collect the troops and recuperate first, and then make plans. Unexpectedly, at this time, there was a burst of laughter in the camp, and then a black thing flew out of the village, spanning a distance of hundreds of meters, and landed in front of Li Dao and Guo Yan!
"Yan Xing!?"
The two of them looked at the dead head, screamed, and retreated.
"Yan Xing has been killed by me, Li Dao Guo Yan, you two thieves have the ability to come forward and fight General Ben!?"
Ma Chao's loud voice resounded through the mountain road, and Li Dao and Guo Yan's faces turned pale and they didn't dare to answer.
When the two of them were in Yongzhou, they had a lot of battles with Yan Xing, how could they not know Yan Xing's martial arts? The two of them joined forces, but they just saw that they were undefeated against Yan Xing. And now listening to Ma Chao's breath, it seems that he can easily kill Yan Xing without any effort, how can the two of them be opponents when they step forward?
However, if the enemy general provokes in front of the battle, if he does not respond, where is the face? Morale will inevitably drop greatly, Guo Yan was about to answer, but was stopped by Li Wei.
"Hey, the courage of the horseman, don't do it!" Li Wei said in a low voice: "Even if Yan Xing is dead, there are still tens of thousands of troops without a master."
Guo Yan was stunned and laughed.
Compared with a little face, the tens of thousands of troops are more valuable. Anyway, Ma Chao didn't dare to go out of the village to fight head-on.
When Li Dao and Guo Yan retreated, Ma Chao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Don't look at him leading the army to defeat Yan Xing, beheading 3,000, and the army in the village also repelled more than a dozen fierce attacks by Li Dao Guo Yan's army, but they were already the end of the strong crossbow.
Not only were the soldiers very tired, but even the supplies in the village were almost exhausted.
If Li Dao Guo Yan still attacks and does not retreat, it will not take half an hour, he will definitely be defeated by Dazhai and end in a fiasco!
Seeing Li Guo and the others retreating, Ma Chao took a long breath and ordered the army to be divided into two batches, one group to cut down trees behind the village and make supplies, and the other group to seize the time to rest and recover their strength.
"You should also go and rest," Ma Chao patted the shoulder of the deputy general of the guard, and said: "Yan Xing is dead, the army has no owner, and the meat that is put in his mouth, how can Li and Guo Yan not eat it?" If you want to come to the day, there will be no war, first take care of your physical strength, and next time you will have a good time! ”
The lieutenant said a sigh and turned to leave.
Ma Chao looked at the gradually sinking sky, and calculated that it was approaching the unitary hour. That is, according to the calculations, half of the time has passed. There will be no more fighting tonight, but when Guo Yan and Li Dao subdue the remnants of Yan Xing, Ming will definitely face a more brutal attack.
"It's noon tomorrow!"
Ma Chao's expression was firm, and he turned around and strode away.
