Pang Tong suggested that Cao Cao must not transfer Xiahoudun's 50,000 troops into Xiangyang unless he had to do so, even if the war was tight, Xiahoudun's soldiers and horses could not be moved easily, just to guard against Ganning. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Cao Cao thought so, and when he thought of the current situation, Zhuge Liang's name couldn't help but flash in his mind.

Cao Cao sighed lightly, "If Zhuge Liang had led his troops from Bajun to attack Chen Qi, the current situation would have been clear, and we would not have fallen into such an embarrassing situation." ”

Pang Tong shook his head, "Zhuge Liang will never obey the orders of the lord, he sent troops to Tongguan, Shi Yuan had already expected it, and now, he may have already handed over to the frustrated master, but the frustrated professor is not an idle person." The battle of Tongguan is bound to be fierce, and I am afraid that the time for holding each other will not be too short. ”

Although Pang Tong is as famous as Zhuge Liang, he does not underestimate the heroes of the world, and Pang Tong still has a high evaluation of his talent.

However, the balance of victory and defeat, in Pang Tong's view, sooner or later will turn to Zhuge Liang's side, as long as Zhuge Liang successfully takes Tongguan, Chen Jiao's side, will inevitably panic, once the troops are divided to help, the siege of Jingxiang will also be solved.

After listening to Pang Tong's explanation, Cao Cao nodded again and again, now, he thought the same as Pang Tong, he hoped that Zhuge Liang's side could divide the victory and defeat as soon as possible, and Zhuge Liang, like Cao Cao, also wanted Cao Cao's side to fight more fiercely with Chen Qi.

If people are not for themselves, God knows how to destroy them!

When Ma Chao led the troops to the bottom of Tongguan City, on the upper floor of Tongguan City, he had already expected that the bows and crossbows were ready, and the 20,000 soldiers were ready to fight, and they were extremely well prepared.

Ma Chao wanted to sneak attack Tongguan with lightning speed, just like a punch on cotton, it was too powerful, Ma Chao circled Tongguan, gritting his teeth anxiously, for fear of being ridiculed, and suffering from no other way, Ma Chao had to order the siege, which is also the simplest, most direct way, and the same stupid way.

Ma Chao attacked the city, frustrated and calm, the righteous army was well prepared, for a while, random arrows were fired, rolling wood smashed angrily, although Ma Chao attacked fiercely, but he could not take Tongguan.

On the contrary, the long-term attack not only suffered heavy casualties, but also made Ma Chao's mood more impatient.

After a day of fierce fighting, Ma Chao stopped attacking the city, let the soldiers bury the pot to cook, the cooking smoke just rose, suddenly, the sound of killing behind him shook the sky, with the help of the dim moonlight, Ma Chao fixed his eyes, the dust in the distance, the yellow turban danced, all came, all the cavalry of the yellow turban, like the wind and clouds, went straight to Ma Chao's camp to kill, at the same time, frustrated also ordered people to open the city gate and kill out of the city.

Frustrated, he left 10,000 cavalry outside the city in advance, and the horse gritted his teeth and stomped his feet angrily, not caring about eating, so he had to pick up his gun and mount his horse.

However, after a day of fierce fighting, these Xichuan soldiers, without food in their stomachs, exhausted, hungry and hungry, and weak, were attacked by the rebels in front and back, and the battle situation can be imagined.

The iron cavalry roared, the sound of killing shook the sky, and the cavalry of the righteous army, like a flood beast, rushed to the front quickly, and these cavalry, the speed did not decrease, and crashed into the Xichuan soldiers.

Only one charged, Xichuan soldiers suddenly screamed in the sky, many people were directly knocked to the ground, and before they could get up from the ground, they were ruthlessly trampled on by the big horses' hooves.

Click......

The sound of broken bones couldn't stop ringing, some of the chests were trampled flat, some of the hands and feet were trampled off, some even the heads were trampled to pieces, the iron cavalry of the righteous army, ruthlessly rushed in the camp of the Xichuan soldiers, leaving dead bodies all over the ground behind them, even if the horse was super brave, it could not block the onslaught of the 10,000 cavalry, a wave did not stop, these cavalry turned their horses' heads, and covered up again.

Crushed repeatedly, coupled with the life-threatening spears in the hands of the cavalry roaring out, the Xichuan soldiers shouted that the heavens should not be, the earth was not spiritual, the wolves who were killed howled and the ghosts howled, miserable, crying, shouting, running desperately, kneeling and begging for mercy... Faced with the naked crushing of the rebels, the Xichuan soldiers were like fish on the board, and they could only wait sadly for the judgment of fate.

The cavalry of the righteous army went back and forth to cover and kill, and the frustration led people to clear the remnants of Xichuan who tried to escape, and the two groups of people cooperated tacitly, both offensive and defensive, although Ma Chao fought desperately, and was brave and difficult to defeat, but the Xichuan soldiers had already been chaotic, the military spirit collapsed, and the morale was low, and Ma Chao's courage alone could not reverse the fiasco.

Even Ma Chao, repeatedly fighting, was also injured, stunned by the righteous army to besiege up, several times to kill, can not break through, however, the casualties of the righteous army, not a few, Ma Chao superb marksmanship, like mowing grass, gunfire everywhere, blood splashed, all the way to the horse to kill, in the crowd set off a bloody storm.

Huang Zhong came a little late, and when he led his troops to Tongguan City, Ma Chao's soldiers were already very few left.

Ma Chao was covered in blood, completely red-eyed, and Frustrated Confuc was still standing on the city tower leisurely, Huang Zhong led the troops to arrive in time, Frustrated Confusing's face fell on Huang Zhong's body, and there was a slight change.

"Huang Zhong? Zhuge Liang, who was really clever, actually sent two people. ”

Fu Zhi sighed softly, if it was just Ma Chao all the way, Fu Zhi would definitely be able to eat all these people.

Huang Zhong rode his horse and danced the knife like a whirlwind into the crowd of the rebels, the old general's silver hair fluttered, the big knife danced wildly, the mountain chopping knife in his hand, Huo Huo was windy, the cold light was dazzling, and the blade was over, it seemed that even the surrounding air flow and temperature were strangely cooled down.

A rebel, before he could make any response, the bright blade had already slashed down on his neck, poof... The sharp blade quickly slashed through the rebel's neck, bringing a bloody sword, and immediately, a bloody human head flew out of the air.

More than a dozen rebels raised their guns and stabbed Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong smiled indifferently, stared at the tiger, one-handed wheel knife, the guns in the hands of these soldiers, with a violent impact sound, were not knocked off, they were cut off, everyone exclaimed, Huang Zhong urged the horse to rush to the front, stopped the waist and slashed horizontally, and several rebels were cut in half.

The cavalry of the rebel army roared and rushed towards Huang Zhong's horse, rolling up a stream of dust and sand.

Huang Zhong smiled slightly, and rushed forward with a shake of the silk reins, as soon as the battle began, the cavalry of the righteous army suffered heavy losses, Huang Zhong's big knife flew up and down, these cavalry were not only scattered by Huang Zhong in an instant, but after the sound of horses' hooves, there were more than a dozen dead corpses on the ground.

Huang Zhong was old and strong, and lived up to the courage of Lian Po back then, and the Xichuan soldiers behind him were also highly moraled.

Huang Zhong did not rush to attack the city, but immediately counted the number of people and set up camp to stand by.

Ma Chao was ashamed of his shamelessness, after the first battle, the more than 10,000 people he brought were almost wiped out, but Huang Zhong didn't care, and even comforted Ma Chao, "Meng Qi, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, don't care, come to the Japanese battlefield to face off, kill the enemy and break the city, as long as you take Tongguan, why not wash away today's shame!"
