Chapter Twenty-Four: The Invincible Horseman Ma Chao
readx;
Chengdu is a huge city with 300,000 people, and no city in the world can accommodate such a population except for Nanzheng. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAt this time, Chengdu has been expanded for the fourth time, and the old city wall has become a scenic line, and even a place for people to enjoy the shade. There are still gates on the old walls, but the huge gates have not been closed for many years.
Walking through the streets of Chengdu, you can find a lot of strangely dressed people, coming out of their mouths with words that you will never understand. They are Yi people, some from Xiqiang, some from Qingcheng, and some from Nanban. Here, countless foreigners come and go as usual.
Chen Dao, the third general of Great Qin, stood on the wall of the Chengdu Governor's Mansion, and behind him stood two comfortable young men. One person has a small posture, and the other person is sharp and naïve. One of these two people is Chen Bin, the son of Qin Shi, who has been trained for a long time, and the other is Chen Zhi's son, Chen Wei.
The second brother Chen Ze had a son who died in his early years, and then gave birth to two daughters, and only had a younger son a few years ago, which is considered to be an old son, and the Chen family can only show three people now, Chen Bin, Chen Ding, and Chen Wei.
Chen to: "The world." A windbreaker, looking back at Chen Bin: "Bin'er, the eldest brother gave Du Wei the history of Yizhou, and ordered Shu to send 20,000 soldiers and horses, 10,000 to Jingzhou, and 10,000 to Hanzhong." It seems that we have to start in advance, and time is running out. ”
Chen Bin was young and old, nodded, and said: "At the beginning, I was in Hanzhong, because the world is in Hanzhong." When I came to Shuzhong, I learned that under the governance of my uncle, Chengdu was so strong, and my uncle worked hard. ”
Chen Zhi was praised by Chen Bin so much, but he didn't see any joy, over the years, Chen Zhi had heard too much. Chen Dao: "For 20 years, my brother has been using the power of Hanzhong to conquer the east and the west. In order to preserve the power of Shuzhong, in order to be able to hit with one blow at a critical time. Now, it's time for Shu Zhong to contribute. There is Lord Liu Hua in the south, and you General Wu Yi are guarding it, and Du Wei is leading the history of Yizhou Thorn, so you can rest assured that you can go out of Shu. ”
Chen Wei behind him was very excited to hear it, Chen Bin and Chen Ding, the two elder brothers, had already left traces on the battlefield, which made him envious all the time by his father's side. Chen Zhi glared back, and he didn't need to look at his son's to know it. Chen Wei was startled and hurriedly retracted.
Chen Bin looked funny and secretly made a gesture to Chen Wei.
Chen Bin: "Uncle, do you want you to leave now?" In the future—"
Chen Zhi smiled: "Bin'er, you think about things, you are becoming more and more thoughtful, good, good, this is good." I know what you want to say, are you worried that if I leave, can the soldiers and horses who have been trained in Shuzhong for many years be summoned to contribute to Hanzhong? You are wrong, Shuzhong is not a Chen to influence, the local county lieutenants and even generals, as long as Hanzhong comes with an order, Chengdu can do it no matter who is in charge. ”
Chen Bin nodded, he also found out in the past few days that Chen Zhi did not establish a worship of Chen Zhi in Shu, but mainly based on Daqin, Chen Zhi did not buy anyone's heart, everything is Daqin, Daqin, Daqin. This made Chen Bin admire this third uncle so much, as a local governor, he was able to do this.
Chen Zhi said, "Ten days later, we will set off. ”
The chaos of Eastern Wu, the smoke of Hebei. Ma Chao eyed the two counties of Xiliang in Great Qin, and the king of Qin ordered that Shuzhong secretly dispatched 20,000 people out of Shu, one to guard against Jingzhou, according to the rebellion of Eastern Wu, and 10,000 to Hanzhong. Before the soldiers and horses in Shuzhong arrived, Chen Lin ordered to send 5,000 soldiers and horses from Hanzhong to Tianshui and 5,000 soldiers and horses to Longxi. The strength of the two counties instantly reached 40,000.
The mobilization of Daqin's troops and horses sent at least 10,000 regular troops to Xiliang, which could not be concealed from Ma Chao in any case. Ma Chao has completely been firmly rooted in Chen Cang, the military focus of Liu Bei, and Ma Chao still has no intention of going south to Chang'an. At this time, Liu Bei would not be bored to trouble Ma Chao, and the two families were actually safe.
Ma Chao and Pang De, I saw that Pang De was analyzing: "The two counties of Longxi and Tianshui together have less people than Nanzheng Yicheng. Now the deployment of Great Qin's troops can be clearly seen that as long as the strength of the Qin army is in the four strongholds of Sanguan, Tianshui, Didao, and Yicheng. In addition to these four strongholds, there are only some small counties that are not critical, which is of little significance. ”
"Coupled with the 10,000 horses that are now coming north, the Qin army is north of Yangping Pass, north of Qishan, there are at least 40,000 soldiers and horses, and the old bone Cheng Gongying is in charge of the western front, plus Di Dao has a little defense, it is difficult to break through. On the eastern front, Hao Zhao was originally young and sharp, but now he has added a Zhang Wenyuan, especially this Zhang Wenyuan, who was also a member of the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry, and has a good understanding of our army's cavalry tactics. ”
Pang De just commented on it, but this sentence made Ma Chao angry, in front of Ma Chao, who dared to say that he was powerful in the cavalry. Damn, Ma Chao was very angry, and that arrogant heart kept jumping up.
Cold-eyed: "Ling Ming can have a way to send a certain 10,000-iron horse to the south bank of Weishui?" ”
Pang De was shocked, looked up, and was shocked in his heart, this, his eyes were so murderous. Pang De: "Major General, this, we still have a good arrangement from scratch, Qin Jun-"
"Is there a way?" Ma Chao's tone was even worse. Pang De: "Our army now only needs to support the wind on the eastern front, and on the Chencang side, there are 26,000 soldiers and horses, and the iron cavalry only has 10,000 under the command of the major general, and there are 2,000 in a certain one." Although General Zuo Ma Dai had 20,000 soldiers and horses in Jincheng, it was really difficult to fight, and it was okay for defense. ”
"If the young general crosses the river, it is not impossible, the huge and long Weishui, but the Qin army can't hold it, as long as there is a day, but the logging and shipbuilding on the spot can cross the river. It's just that crossing the river is easy to do, but after crossing the river, it is difficult. The Qin army blockaded the logistics of our army, and the army crossing the river was only afraid that it would run out of food, and the army would be chaotic in no more than five days. ”
Ma Chao shouted: "Okay, it's good to be able to cross the river." Hmph, bother me with logistics? Before, Hao Zhao divided hundreds of cavalry to cross the river to mess with me, which taught him how to deal with him. Today, he also wants to let Qin Jun try this locust-like transit method, Ling Ming, you guard Chencang, and Ma Tie guards Fufeng. Hmph, a certain 10,000 iron cavalry will be divided into a hundred shares, and they will run, burn, rob, and kill in his Tianshui and Longxi, and they will see how long the Qin army can last. ”
Pang De was shocked: "Major General, this, I am only afraid that the people of Tianshui and Longxi will be against our army in the future-"
Ma Chao: "How many people are there in the two places?" He left the military tent without looking back. Leaving the stunned Pang De, there are 100,000 people in the two counties, which is indeed not much, but this kind of tactic is only afraid that it will not be popular with the people. Back then, Yuan Shao's subordinates suggested that Cao * be dealt with in this way, because even Yuan Shao felt that he was too lacking in virtue and did not do anything, so that Cao * had a chance to defeat Yuan Shao. If Yuan Shao also wanted to be like Ma Chao today, Cao * would definitely not be able to last two years.
The horse crossed the river, 10,000 iron horsemen, no longer respect the order, in the two counties until Yangping Pass, when the crowd is gone, when the widow is attacked, when the grain is robbed, all that can be burned will be burned, and all that can be destroyed will be destroyed. Coupled with the elite of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, the Qin army in the two counties was busy fighting fires every day, but it did not have much effect.
In half a month, the Qin army that was scattered and killed was as high as 1,400 people, not even the people. Zhang Liao had no choice but to come to Yicheng overnight to discuss with Cheng Gongying, and Cheng Gongying said: "Without cavalry, everything is empty talk." "Cavalry, how easy it is to say, Daqin is gone except for the wolf horse. The cavalry of Xiliang and Xiliang combined was less than 2,000, and they were still scattered and unorganized.
Zhang Liao gritted his teeth, and Lao Tzu personally went out. So, the two counties barely gathered a thousand cavalry, and Zhang Liao set out. Unexpectedly, this news was known by Ma Chao, a thousand cavalry, that's a big guy. Ma Chao beckoned, gathered twice as many people as Zhang Liao, more than 2,000 people, and looked for Zhang Liao.
Zhang Liao was so frightened that he hurriedly sent troops to the army, but people didn't pay attention to you at all, run, keep running, you go and chase it.
Zhang Liao hurriedly sent troops to see Weishui to death, cutting off Ma Chao's grain route, but later Fei Yi had already counted the things that Ma Chao robbed in the countryside, and what we didn't pay attention to in the early stage, which was enough for people to eat for a while. And so it failed again.
Fight with all your might, and if people don't fight you, they will disturb your peace. The cavalry fought, but they couldn't beat it. Block, you can't block people in the short term.
Hao Zhao then suggested: "General, it's better to attack Chen Cang." ”
