When the Battle of Xiliang kicked off, the Wei general Pang De also led a large army from Chang'an all the way south, and then walked out of the Guanzhong Pass and Dasanguan, and marched towards Wudu County.

Wudu County is relatively desolate, there are not many official roads, and most of the roads to the south are mountain roads, and on this rugged mountain road, this large army of Wei and Qiang people united to form a long dragon.

"Cheng Ho, map!"

The main general, Pound, suddenly shouted to stop the team behind him, and then drank to a lieutenant next to him.

"In!"

Cheng He is about thirty years old, they are not tall, but they are very strong, he is a native of Xiliang, and he is also one of the best confidants under Pound's command, he took out a marching map from the cylinder and spread it out in front of Pound.

"Here we are, less than fifty miles from the river?"

Pang De looked at a position on the march map, and his eyes burst with a gleam: "Cheng He, you pass on my military order, let all the troops immediately speed up the march, before sunset, I will arrive in Hechi City!" ”

"Yes!"

The generals received orders and began to urge all the troops under their command to step up the march.

"General Ling Ming, the terrain is a little rugged now, and the speed of this march is already very difficult, why do you suddenly want to speed up the march?" At this time, a strong and brave middle-aged Qiang man came up immediately, looked at Pang De with a little unkind eyes and asked.

"Dian Tu, if we have already entered the Wudu, no better than Guanzhong, we will soon expose the traces of the army and let the Wu army find out, so we must step up the march, cross the river pool is to argue, the northwest is Qishan, our task is to take Qishan!"

Pang De looked at the first strong man of the Baima Qiang tribe, and he was also the Qiang man he had the deepest friendship with in the Qiang tribe, and analyzed in a deep voice.

The total strength of his army is about 55,000 soldiers, but the Wei soldiers occupy a small proportion, less than 10,000 soldiers, and the rest are Qiang warriors, and the Qiang people are xenophobic and only obey the leadership of the Qiang people.

In fact, the real commander of this army is Dian Tu.

Pound must rely on the Dian Tu to control this army for his own use.

"Okay, it's okay for you to let us speed up the march, but after we take Qishan, we must rest for three days before we can enter the battle, and my warriors are not iron-clad!"

Dian Tu thought about it and said in a deep voice.

The communication between the Baima Qiang tribe and the Wei people is too deep, and now they are inseparable, he is willing to fight for Pang De, one is that they had a friendship before, and the other is that the grain and grass of the Wei people can make the Qiang people live a good life.

"No problem!"

Pound heard this, smiled, and nodded in agreement.

He didn't know now that the tide of the battle in Xiliang had begun to turn around, and no one told him that according to the previous plot between them, his task was to hold Qishan and intercept the retreat of the Wu army, not to take the initiative.

Therefore, as long as the army takes Qishan, the Qiang army wants to rest for a few days, and if it really reaches the step where the Wu army pounces, they can't help it.

――――――――――――――――――――――――

Xiliang.

The situation in the battle at Jieting suddenly became a little weird, the Ninth Army of the Wu Army was holding on to Longshan and waiting for reinforcements, surrounded by the Wei army overlapping at the bottom of the mountain, but the northern flank of the Wei army was about to move with the Xianbei army led by Pang Tong.

The Wei army wanted to besiege and consume the Ninth Army, and was unwilling to start a major war easily, and Pang Tong did not dare to act rashly in the face of the heavy forces of the Wei army, so the situation got a little calm.

"How many days can the Wu army on Longshan be able to support it?" On the city wall of the north city of Jieting, Ma Chao carried his hands behind his back, and his eyes were cold.

"One day!"

Fu Zhi stood behind him, and when he heard this, he calculated in his heart: "I estimate that they have enough food and grass, but the water source has been cut off by us, and they can support them for a day at most!" ”

"One day?"

Ma Chao turned his head, looked at the southwest direction, looked at the terrain near Longshan, and his eyes burst out with an unstoppable light: "Do you think they will jump off the wall in a hurry?" ”

"It's useless to jump!"

Fu Zhi sneered, and said confidently: "We have Xiliang Iron Cavalry waiting at the bottom of the mountain, if they choose to go down the mountain to break through, we will not meet the battle and let them go directly, in this city, where do they jump, it is estimated that they will be beaten by my Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and then shot as a target one by one!" ”

Cavalry is the advantage.

Even if Wu Jun breaks through, can he run more than four legs on two legs?

They had enough time and space to kill the Wu army that broke through one by one in the street pavilion town.

"Kill them first, and then turn back to deal with the Xianbei army!"

Ma Chao nodded, and smashed directly on the city wall, with a touch of coldness on his expression, the previous Xianbei army raid made him a two-member general, he was not angry at this tone, if it weren't for the Wu army on Longshan, he would now be ready to lead a heavy army north to defeat the Xianbei army.

"General, we can't relax yet, although we can change the situation of the battle in one day, but it is also easy to change, now it depends on whether God goes with us or not!"

Fu Zhi was a little worried, and said, "I want to send Cao Zhang's soldiers and horses out to guard against the south wing of the Street Pavilion!" ”

"The south wing of the street pavilion? Do you still think that the Wu army has an ambush on the southern flank? ”

"Hmm!"

Frustrated nodded: "If the Wu army deliberately sets up a situation, only tens of thousands of Xianbei soldiers and horses, we can't help it, there must be ambushes, Xianbei is in the north, if there are ambushes, it must be in the south, I am worried that we may not be able to maintain this situation on this day, tens of thousands of Xianbei troops in the north flank have already held most of our main force, if there is an ambush of the Wu army on the south flank, we will face a front and rear attack!" ”

"Good!"

Ma Chao thought about it, he still recognized the caution of the frustration, and he said in a deep voice: "You go to Cao Zhang's military camp in person, after all, he is the prince of the dynasty, His Royal Highness King Peng, and he is not under my jurisdiction, my military order may not work, you try to convince him as much as possible!" ”

"Yes!"

Fu Zhu nodded, left the north city of Jieting, and with hundreds of guards, rode his horse towards the southwest direction, at the foot of Longshan Cao Zhang's military camp.

"Bo Zhan, this atmosphere makes me feel a little uneasy!"

Ma Chao rubbed his temples with both hands, looking at the clear sky, I don't know why, I always felt that there was a dark cloud in the clouds, he couldn't help but said faintly: "Maybe I'm right, Wu Jun really has ambush soldiers waiting for me!" ”

"Then plan ahead!"

Ma Dai was like an ordinary guard, standing next to him with a straight body, and when he heard Ma Chao's words, he suddenly said: "Take Chen Cang as our retreat first!" ”

"Chen Cang?"

Ma Chao's eyes lit up, this is the gateway to Guanzhong, if you can mention the arrangement, maybe it will be a life-saving grass in the future: "You are right, you really need to take precautions, but now the troops are very tight, and the north and south are opening up battlefields, where will I transfer troops and horses to seize Chencang!" ”

"Big brother, as long as you give me 5,000 soldiers and horses, I will definitely guard the last retreat for you!" Ma Dai said suddenly.

"Five thousand soldiers?"

Ma Chao thought about it for a while, and said with some worry: "Wouldn't it be too risky, once the Wu army is one step ahead of me and storms Chencang, you only have five thousand soldiers and horses, wouldn't it be very dangerous." ”

"Big brother, you have no available soldiers now, squeeze out 5,000 soldiers and horses, you can still deal with the battle situation, if you squeeze out more soldiers and horses, you will face the Xianbei army and the Wu army to fight back together!"

"I'm worried about you!"

"Big brother, please rest assured, my Ma Dai only has one breath left, and he will definitely stick to the only way for big brother to retreat!" Ma Dai said firmly.

"So far, my brother can only listen to you once!"

Ma Chao pondered for a long time before agreeing, allocating five thousand elites to him and asking him to rush to Chencang.

――――――――――――――

To the southeast of the street pavilion, thirty miles away, a group of mountains lingers, quietly.

At the foot of the mountain, a large army quietly rested here, they did not set up camp, nor did they set up a banner for several miles, but under the surging crowds for several miles, there was a momentum that was three miles away.

"Commander, there's a street pavilion ahead!"

Xu Shu said in return.

"Has Ma Chao's situation been clarified?"

Ju Yi stood on horseback, his tiger eyes were like a leader, and the breath of his body was like a tiger descending from the mountain, and a strong fighting spirit involuntarily infected countless generals around him.

"Jin Yiwei has figured it out!" Xu Shu nodded, and said in a deep voice: "The Northern Wolf Guard is divided into three parts, one is again, against the Xianbei army holding Pang Tong, one is in the street pavilion, and the other is at the foot of Longshan Mountain, encircling my ninth army!" ”

"How's the Ninth Army doing?"

"The situation is not optimistic!" Xu Shu hurriedly said: "We must rescue them as soon as possible, I am afraid that if this continues, they will be surrounded and killed on the Dragon Mountain, as far as I know, their water source has been cut off!" ”

"Detailed map of the street pavilion!" Ju Yi jumped off his horse and let out a low shout.

"In!"

Lu Xun, the deputy general of staff, personally stepped forward and spread out a detailed map of the street pavilion within a radius of several miles sent by the Jinyi Guard, and every street and every exit was clearly marked.

"Longshan is in the southwest, if we want to attack it, we have to face the Jieting army!" Ju Yi looked at it for half an hour, and his brows couldn't help frowning: "I'm not afraid of fighting, I'm afraid that there won't be enough time, Ma Chao's ability, with an elite army, with Jieting Town, it's no problem for him to support for a few days!" ”

"Ming Xiu plank road, dark Chen Cang!"

Xu Shu's eyes flashed with a gleam: "Commander, you lead the troops to attack head-on, and I personally lead a cavalry to rush in from the west, and kill at the foot of Longshan, so that they can withdraw from the street pavilion, and then step by step, annihilate Ma Chao's department in one fell swoop!" ”

"When will you do it?"

"The sooner the better!" Xu Shu said.

Ju Yi raised his head, and saw that the slanting sun had begun to set in the west, so he made a decision: "Now that it is almost dark, the moon is dark and the wind is high and the night kills, just tonight, in the dark, the soldiers are divided into two roads, marching to the street pavilion, and when it is time to do it, we will do it together, Xu Shu, the west road will be handed over to you and handed over to you, you lead the cavalry to the west, you must meet the Ninth Army to break out of the encirclement, and the second army, the third army, and the fourth army will attack with me, storm the street pavilion, Shaye, your fifth army will not move!" ”

"No!"

When the generals heard this, their movements suddenly became vigorous and resolute, and they hurried down to prepare. (To be continued.) )
