On the north bank of the river, Ma Teng looked up to the sky and snorted: "Fight to the death and never retreat~~"

"Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

The surviving 8,000 Qiang soldiers responded with three calls.

Because these Qiang people live in an extremely harsh natural environment, they have an unimaginable tolerance for death, and the Qiang people have admired martial arts since ancient times, believing that only the souls killed in battle can be contained by the gods, plus the Ma family has a great appeal among the Qiang people, and after Ma Yue entered the main Liangzhou, the prestige of the Ma family was pushed to the peak.

Therefore, Ma Teng ascended to the top and shouted, so that these Qiang soldiers could gather in Jingcong.

Compared with the 8,000 Qiang soldiers, the remaining more than 10,000 Beidi Tuntian soldiers are much inferior, after all, this is only a slightly trained peasant army, and the equipment on the body is not the same as the Qiang soldiers.

……

Yuan Shao Zhongjun.

In the fierce and loud horn sound, Yuan Shao rode forward under the support of the generals Zhang He, Ju Yi, Chun Yuqiong and the strategist Xun Chen, Gao Gan, and Tian Feng, at this time Yuan Shao was wearing gold armor and looked high-spirited, until now the middle route coalition army has not captured Hangu Pass (the news of the spread of the plague has not yet come), but the northern route coalition army under his personal command is about to kick the old camp of the horse butcher Hetao!

Moreover, Yuan Shao believed that once the Hetao was captured, it would trigger a chain reaction, and the horse butcher's unstable rule in the Guan and Liang regions would collapse! The horse butcher really shouldn't have personally led the division south to Jing and Yang at this time, under the premise of a stable rear, this may be a good strategy to deal with the crusade of the Kwantung coalition army, but now that the rear foundation is not stable, it has become the most fatal mistake!

"Are the trapped beasts still fighting? Hmph, Ma Teng's technique stops this ear! Taking a deep breath, Yuan Shaolang said, "Pass the order, let Gongsun Zan and Zhang Yan attack the left and right flanks of Ma Teng's army, Ju Yi led 8,000 Xiandeng battalions as the vanguard, Zhang He led 5,000 light cavalry to escort the formation, and the three armies fired together to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop." ”

"My lord." Tian Feng suddenly said in a condensed voice, "It seems that Ma Tengjun attacked first. ”

"Huh?"

Yuan Shao Huoran raised his head, and saw that Ma Teng's army had been divided into three, each with five or six thousand people facing the Youzhou army and the Montenegrin army arrayed on the left and right flanks, and another seven or eight thousand people rushed straight towards Yuan Shao's Jizhou army.

"You dare to take the initiative? It's just looking for death! Yuan Shao snorted and shouted, "Where is Ju Yi?" ”

Ju Yi took a step forward and said sharply: "The end will be." ”

Yuan Shao said: "Take the lead in the camp and attack and defeat the enemy!" ”

"Yes!" Ju Yi suddenly agreed, and immediately stepped forward, raised the spear in his hand and slammed it into the air, and said sharply, "Brothers who went to the camp first, come with so~~"

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

The battalion commander of the Eight Thousand Xiandeng snorted three times and followed Ju Yi and surged forward behind him.

"Boom~~"

In the tidal footsteps, Ma Teng led eight thousand Qiang soldiers to rush like a storm, and suddenly the two armies were only a stone's throw away, and the corners of Ju Yi's mouth suddenly bloomed with a trace of cold murderous intent, and he raised his gun again to tease the sky, and said sharply: "Crossbow Arrowmen ~~ Attack~~"

Ju Yi gave an order, and the advance of the eight thousand first-ascended dead soldiers came to an abrupt halt.

"Boom!"

In the chaotic footsteps, two thousand crossbowmen quickly rushed forward over the hoplites and pikemen, and set up a shooting formation in front of the formation, and suddenly, two thousand pairs of indifferent eyes were already focused on the tip of Ju Yi's spear held high in the sky, just waiting for Ju Yi's iron spear to swing down, these cold-blooded killers would not hesitate to detain the crossbow machine.

"Attack!"

Ju Yi howled violently, raised his spear to the sky and swung it fiercely, and in an instant, thousands of sharp crossbow arrows were as dense as locusts, and they shot towards the eight thousand Qiang soldiers led by Ma Teng, and the sharp arrows pierced the void and let out a terrible scream, threatening to shatter the eardrums of the soldiers of the two armies.

"The whole army stops advancing!" Ma Teng struggled to raise his long knife, looked up to the sky and snorted, "Shield soldiers~~ array!" ”

"Ahh

"Bang~~"

Two thousand shield soldiers quickly rushed forward, the shoulder of the shield on the ground heavily, suddenly made a loud noise, suddenly, a solid shield wall has risen out of thin air, firmly protect the eight thousand Qiang soldiers behind the shield wall, in an instant, dense as locusts of crossbow arrows have been shot up, everywhere on the huge and solid shield.

"Sigh Rhythm ~~"

Ma Teng's mount hit several crossbows, wailed and fell to the ground, Ma Teng flipped backwards in the air, brandished a long knife and shot down more than a dozen crossbow arrows shot at him, and finally fell heavily behind the shield wall, crushing the two Qiang soldiers on their horses, Ma Teng turned over and got up, looked down at the Qiang soldiers who were pressed under him, and suddenly laughed for no reason.

"Hahaha~~"

The nearby Qiang soldiers also laughed loudly, and for a while, the loud laughter echoed with the sound of crossbow arrows shooting on the shields, and the ensemble played into a strange battlefield concerto. Before boarding the camp first, Ju Yi's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, the enemy army was really surprisingly tenacious, and he could still laugh when he was dying!

"Wow~~"

Ju Yi raised his spear and pulled it back, and the two thousand crossbow soldiers immediately began to turn around and retreat, and suddenly, Ju Yi's spear was drawn forward, and in the sound of the trumpet, another two thousand soldiers who had ascended to the front of the battle began to swing out a scattering formation, but this time, these soldiers were no longer holding a giant crossbow, but a longbow!

"How~~ Attack!"

Ju Yi gave an order, two thousand longbowmen held bows and arrows, and a full two thousand sharp wolf's tooth arrows swept into the air in an instant, intertwined into a dense rain of arrows in the sky, and roared down towards Ma Teng's Qiang soldiers, and at this time, Ma Teng's Qiang soldiers were hiding behind the shield wall and laughing, and the atmosphere on the battlefield was scorching.

"Xiuxiu~~"

The terrible sound of breaking the air woke Ma Teng up, and he looked up to the sky, only to see a dark cloud sweeping in, Ma Teng was taken aback, and suddenly roared hoarsely: "Brothers, damn it, change the formation, change the formation~~ Raise the shield, raise the shield!" Fast~~"

The Qiang soldiers changed formations one after another, putting away their shields and raising them above their heads, but it was still too late.

Before the shield could be connected to a thick top wall, a dense rain of arrows had already roared down, and the endless howl of misery resounded in an instant, and hundreds of Qiang soldiers fell in an instant, falling in a pool of blood.

……

Before the Tiger Prison Pass.

"Boom~~"

When Yuan Shu and his entourage were marching towards the tiger prison, they suddenly heard the sound of thunderous iron hooves behind them, and looked back in shock, only to see hundreds of cavalry covering and killing like a whirlwind and clouds.

"Not good!" Yuan Shu gasped and lost his voice, "Cao Jun has caught up!" ”

Sun Jian's eyes flashed with a trace of coldness, and said to Yuan Shu: "Don't panic, the last general has already laid an ambush in the dense forests on both sides, if Xiahoudun dares to chase after him, he will definitely teach him to come and go!" ”

"Oh?" Yuan Shu was relieved when he heard this, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and said in a low voice, "If it weren't for Wentai, the surname of this great Sima would be dead." ”

Sun Jian said: "Jian is carried by the big Sima, and he should serve the big Sima." ”

"Huh." Yuan Shu was overjoyed when he heard this, and said happily, "Wentai is loyal and righteous, and he already knows everything." ”

"Phew!" At this time, Xiahou was close to each other, and shouted, "Da Sima stays!" ”

Sun Jian rode the horse horizontal knife (not the ancient ingot treasure knife, the treasure knife had been given to Sun Ce) protected Yuan Shu behind him, and shouted: "Xiahoudun, what do you want?" ”

Seeing Sun Jian's murderous spirit blocking the way, Xiahou showed an awe-inspiring look in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "The last general is on the order of the prime minister, and I hereby respectfully invite Da Sima to return to Luoyang, Da Sima is the commander of the coalition forces, as the so-called three armies cannot be said without a commander, how can Da Sima say goodbye without saying goodbye?" ”

Sun Jian replied coldly: "Da Sima has an urgent matter to return to Xudu, so there is no need to resign to the prime minister, right?" ”

When Xiahoudun was about to give the order to forcibly keep people, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly found a line of frightened birds flying in the dense forest on the right side of the official road. When he looked back again, although Yuan Shu and his party were only accompanied by dozens of personal soldiers, they did not look frightened, and their hearts became more and more clear.

"General Yuanrang!" The young general, Cao Chunze, leaned forward and said in a low voice, "There may be ambushes in the dense forests on both sides. ”

"Hmm." Xiahoudun nodded awe-inspiringly, and said in a deep voice, "Order the whole army, don't act rashly." ”

Seeing that Cao Jun did not move, Sun Jian snorted coldly, turned around and protected Yuan Shu to the Tiger Prison with a move, Xiahou was helpless, and could only watch Yuan Shu disappear on the mountain road.

……

Battlefield in the clouds.

"Rack the knife!"

Ma Teng roared, his expression grim.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

The three Qiang soldiers responded violently, respectively standing, half-squatting and kneeling posture to hold the steel knife in their hands out of their chests, and instantly set up a knife ladder three steps apart, gradually rising, Ma Teng raised his head to the sky and roared, stepped on the knife ladder with three feet, raised the knife and rose into the air, and then carried the momentum of Mount Tai to the top, a knife straight to the head of Ju Yi.

"Huh?"

Ju Yi's eyes contracted in an instant, and he instinctively slashed his gun.

"Suffer death!"

Ma Teng's expression was terrible, the green tendons on his forehead were about to burst, and suddenly, the long knife that was slashed hard had been heavily slashed on Ju Yi's iron spear, only to hear a loud bang, Ju Yi suddenly felt that his arms were sore, and the mount under his crotch couldn't bear such a violent pressure, and collapsed to the ground with a wail.

"Boom!"

Ju Yi was thumped to the ground.

"Roar!"

Ma Teng swung his knife and slashed again.

Ju Yi struggled to roll sideways, the sharp blade almost cut against his cheek, the bone-chilling cold almost suffocated Ju Yi, between the lightning and the fire, Ma Teng's long knife slammed down, before Ju Yi turned over and got up, he slashed sideways again, Ju Yi couldn't dodge and could only watch the cold blade cut to his neck like lightning.

"Protect the General!"

A terrible scream sounded in Ju Yi's ears, and the figure flashed, and the two pro-soldiers had already pounced on them, and they actually blocked Ju Yi with their bodies, it was obvious that these two pro-soldiers did not seek to kill the enemy, but only to be able to block this killing knife for Ju Yi! Poof, two crisp sounds, blood splashed, and the two pro-soldiers were cut into four in an instant.

But Ju Yi finally bounced up, and slammed the iron spear to the ground, under the weight of the body, the extremely strong iron spear bent into a bow in an instant, and then curved outward, and bounced Ju Yi's heavy body back to the shield wall formed by the first dead man's shield, Ma Teng pulled back the long knife from the two first dead soldiers, and when he looked back, Ju Yi's figure had already disappeared without a trace.

"Roar~"

Ma Teng Huoran looked back, the black pressure of the Qiang soldiers had swept like a tide, howling, waving steel knives and kneading their bodies to the shield wall, the body covered with iron armor slammed into the solid oar shield, making an incessant impact sound, and the strong oar shield array of the first camp began to tremble in an instant, as if the embankment before the embankment was broken, crumbling.

"Puff~~"

Seeing that the shield wall was about to collapse, countless sharp spears stabbed out from the gap in the middle of the giant shield like poisonous snakes, and in an instant, hundreds of Qiang soldiers who climbed on the shield wall were stabbed into hedgehogs.

"Damn!"

Ma Teng's steel teeth clenched, watching the heroic Qiang soldiers fall in rows around him, looking back in shock, more than 10,000 Beidi Tuntian soldiers had collapsed, Gongsun Zhan's Youzhou army and Zhang Yan's Black Mountain army were like wolves covering the flanks and rear of their own army, and in front of them, the defense of the first camp was as immobile as a rock.

"General, the rear army has collapsed, and the enemy army is covering from three directions!"

"General, the shield array of the first camp is too strong, and the brothers can't break through it at all!"

"General, we are already surrounded!"

"General......

Ma Teng's expression was hideous, and his eyes gradually revealed a crazy intention to die.

……

Jizhou Chinese Army.

"I really didn't expect it." Tian Feng said angrily, "Ma Teng's army has become so tenacious under the siege of beasts, and it can beat General Ju Yi's first camp so embarrassed, amazing!" ”

Chun Yuqiong said: "How did Gongsun Zan and Zhang Yan do it, it took so long to defeat Ma Teng's rear army!" ”

"The momentum of the encirclement has been completed, the defeat of Ma Teng's army has been decided, and no matter how tenacious it is, it will not be able to turn the sky over!" Yuan Shao let out a long sigh of relief, turned his gaze to Tian Feng, and asked worriedly, "The 20,000 Liangzhou troops who crossed the river and retreated south are very worrying." If these 20,000 people are allowed to escape back to Meiji, I am afraid that it will take a lot of trouble. ”

Tian Feng said in a condensed voice: "Jiang Qi and Han Meng are both battlefield generals, so they will not make mistakes. ”

……

On the desolate Hetao Great Plains, 20,000 Beidi Tuntian soldiers were retreating south in panic.

Taking advantage of the interval between the marches, Fa Zheng ordered someone to call more than a dozen generals and colonels who led the army to him, these generals are all veterans of a hundred battles drawn from the Gao Shun camp, although they do not obey Fa Zheng, but this is Ma Teng's military order, and they can only obey! Gao Shunzhi's army has always been known for its strict discipline, and the punishment for soldiers who disobey military orders is extremely severe.

"Generals, you are young and knowledgeable, and in terms of qualifications and prestige, it is really not enough to lead an army of 20,000!" Fa Zheng rushed to everyone, and said without being arrogant or humble, "However, since this is General Shoucheng's military order, I can only reluctantly become the commander for a while, and I hope that the generals will focus on the overall situation and help each other!" ”

The generals clasped their fists and said, "I am willing to obey Mr.'s orders." ”

"Hmm." Fa Zheng nodded, and said in a deep voice, "Tian Feng, the military advisor of the Jizhou Army, is known for his resourcefulness, and since our army has fallen into his calculations in this vicious battle in the clouds, there is no need for us to withdraw to Meiji in peace and quiet, and there will be ambushes on the way to the south!" And ~~ The ambush must still be the elite of the Jizhou army. ”

Dozens of Liangzhou generals all changed their expressions when they heard this, if things were really as Fa Zheng expected, it would be extremely tricky.

"Since Mr. has already anticipated Tian Feng's plan, he must have a countermeasure in his heart!" A junior colonel said in a deep voice, "You just give the order, and we will do as you say!" ”

"If the army retreats all the way south, it will be difficult to escape!" Fa Zheng said in a deep voice, "I think that our army should divide into ten routes and withdraw to Meiji separately!" The ancients said that the division of troops in battle is a taboo for soldiers, the enemy army is the elite of a hundred battles, and the general who leads the troops must also be a veteran general on the battlefield, and will never think that our army dares to divide troops in battle, only in this way, our military has a glimmer of life. ”

The generals said in unison: "Follow the orders of the gentleman." ”

……

Xinfeng Port.

After several months of long-distance voyages, the fleet of Li Su, Chen Hu and Zhang Bao finally arrived at Xinfeng Port, accompanied by hundreds of thousands of stones, grains and grass, countless baggage, and hundreds of Jing and Yangshi tribes, nearly 2,000 people! Jia Xu urgently ordered Chang'an to be too law-abiding to greet him.

……

The Great Plains of the Hetao.

The depression is overgrown with artemisia grass, and the five thousand elite soldiers led by Jiang Qi, the fierce general of Jizhou, are quietly ambushed in it, the land of the Hetao Plain is fertile, the field is long and the wind is long, and tens of thousands of troops can hide without a trace, and Jiang Qi's three thousand men and horses are hidden in it, and there is not even a shadow.

"Report~~" In the hurried footsteps, a personal soldier ran to Jiang Qi through the dense grass and said quickly, "General, come~~ It's coming!" ”

"Good! Damn Liangzhou Earth Dog is finally here! Jiang Qi's eyes showed murderous intent in his eyes, Huo Ran stood up and shouted loudly, "Order, let the brothers cheer up and prepare to fight!" ”

"Report~~" Jiang Qi's voice fell, and another pro-soldier rushed over, and said urgently, "General! ”

Jiang Qi put the iron helmet heavily on his head and said sharply: "Speak! ”

The pro-soldier gasped violently twice, and said hurriedly: "Five miles to the east, I found the Liangzhou army rout!" ”

"What?" Jiang Qi's face changed, and he asked urgently, "How many people are there?" ”

The pro-soldier said: "Two or three thousand." ”

"Two or three thousand?" Jiang Qi pondered for a moment, and hurriedly said to the original soldier, "How many soldiers are fleeing here?" ”

The pro-soldier said: "It's also two or three thousand!" ”

"Damn!" Jiang Qi clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "These Liangzhou native dogs are really cunning, they actually came up with a way to escape!" Now, even if we can intercept one or two of the routed troops, the rest of the routed troops will be able to successfully escape back to Meiji, and in this way, the task assigned by the military division will not be completed! ”

"General!" A member of the Ya General hurriedly ran to Jiang Qi and said loudly, "The Liangzhou rout has come over, kill or not?" ”

"Kill! Of course kill! Jiang Qi said sharply, "Order, the whole army will attack!" ”

……

Battlefield in the clouds.

"Poof~~"

Ma Teng's majestic body slammed, and a biting cold spread from the vest to the limbs like spider silk, and the strength of his body receded like a tide. Lowering his head with some difficulty, Ma Tenghuo Ran found that the tip of the spear was leaking out of his left chest, and there were red blood beads sliding down the blade.

Slowly turning around, the figure of a Jizhou general came into view.

Ma Teng slowly stretched out his hand, pointing at the Jizhou general, and the Jizhou general said coldly: "A certain ~~ Zhang He in the river is also!" ”

"Zhang~~He!" Ma Tenggan pointed at Zhang He and said word by word, "I~~er~~ Ma Chao can't spare you~~Uh~~"

When the words fell, Ma Teng fell to the ground and died in an instant.
