Chapter 463: Skillfully summoning the defeated army
In the Meridian Valley, the combined forces of Hanzhong and Bazhou were ambushed by Yuan's army and immediately panicked.
At that time, Ma Chao led thousands of iron horsemen to attack from the front, and on both sides of the mountain road, there were Pang De to send fireballs, messing up the hearts of his army.
Zhang Lu and the seven surnamed Yi Wang Puhu, the leaders of the ethnic minorities Yuan Yue, and Du Hao were guarding the Chinese army, and they couldn't help but be shocked when they heard this riot.
However, Du Hao, the leader of the ethnic minority, turned pale with fright, his teeth creaked and chattered, and he hurriedly turned around and asked Zhang Ludao: "Department teacher?" Didn't you say that Yuan Jun is currently fighting against Yan Xing in Guanzhong, and he has no time to look south, how can there be ambushes in this Meridian Valley? ”
Zhang Lu took a deep breath and sighed with emotion: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable...... This is something that this Heavenly Master has never thought of! Yuan Jun is really talented, and there are many tricks, and even such a perfect plan of this Heavenly Master has been seen through by them, and it seems that this battle cannot be fought...... Withdraw, withdraw! ”
“…………”
And just in this waiting, Wang Ping of the former army has already fought with Ma Chao!
Yuan Shang intended to rein in the Hanzhong Army and the Bazhou Army this time, and did not want to create more killings, but to achieve this goal, the first and most important thing is to deter the enemy, so the first military order he gave to Ma Chao was very simple, that is, as soon as Fang fought each other, he must capture the vanguard general of the other party.
Although the killing can also achieve the goal of demoralizing the enemy, it is easy to cause the grief of the three armies, and it is also easy for them to feel too helpless.
But capturing the enemy general alive is different, not to mention that it is much more difficult to capture than to kill, and this can make the enemy fearless to the greatest extent, and mastering the enemy general can make the enemy himself unable to figure out the next move, but it gives them a kind of hope for life in the subtle way. The generals seem to be dead but not dead, so that they want to pay back, they can't fight if they want to, and they are helpless if they want to run.
Therefore, it is very important to capture the vanguard of the enemy army, and Wang Ping, the general of Bazhou.
As soon as Ma Chao entered the enemy formation, regardless of anything else, he raised his gun and rode straight to Wang Ping.
Wang Ping was commanding his soldiers to resist, and suddenly saw a general in a brocade robe and white armor rushing towards him. Before he arrived, the surging momentum hit with the strong wind and hit his face head-on, which immediately made Wang Ping feel suffocated.
Before the battle was fought, Wang Ping could judge that this general, who was covered in a yard white, was by no means an idle person.
The two horses intersected, Wang Ping was not afraid, and indulged the war knife in his hand. Give it your all, and hit it with one blow.
"Choking ——!"
The swords and guns clashed, and the crisp roar that burst out in the air in an instant was deafening. The eardrums of the surrounding soldiers suddenly buzzed.
Wang Ping's body was crooked, and he almost fell.
Before he could calm down, Ma Chao's spear had already changed angles and swept out. A sweep of thousands of troops followed.
Wang Ping was so shocked that he didn't have time to fight back, so he had to lift his waist. Flat on his back to dodge the gunshot, as soon as he reined in his horse, he was about to retreat.
There is no way, the two moves are fighting, the judgment is made, the opponent is too strong, and he can't win at all.
Why didn't Nai Ma Chao give him a chance, the spear turned into a split, and smashed it again, not giving Wang Ping a chance to escape.
Wang Ping reluctantly raised the handle of the knife, and the sound of "bang" shook his arms numb.
Wang Ping grinned bitterly: "The arm strength of this white-robed general is so strong!" ”
Surprised, Ma Chao's spear has been swept like a storm, Wang Ping, who only hits, is in a hurry, overwhelmed, if it is not for Ma Chao's intention to capture alive, I am afraid that after three or five rounds, Wang Ping will have been stabbed under the horse, and his life will be whimpered.
Rao is like this, ten rounds away, he heard Ma Chao break his drink, the spear swept hard, and suddenly swept away the war knife in Wang Ping's hand, and then stretched out his left hand, grabbed Wang Ping, and directly grabbed his arm, clamped hard, and ran back to Wang Ping.
Poor Bazhou seven surnamed Yi Wang under the command of the general, but like a little chicken, let Ma Chao sandwich under the armpit, and led away in a gray way!
As soon as Wang Ping was captured alive, the rout of the Hanba army was even worse!
On the mountain stacks on both sides, Pang De kept celebrities and fireballs, although the fire was not big enough to burn people to death, but the smoky smell and dazzling fire hit the morale of the Hanba army hard, coupled with the loud scolding of the sergeant on Shanzhan Road and the galloping back and forth of the oncoming horse Chao's iron horse, the critical line in the heart of the Hanba sergeant seemed to have collapsed.
The vanguard general was captured like a chicken cub, and the back road was blocked by Ma Xiu, Ma Tie and others with rolling logs, what other fighting spirit does the Hanba army have to compete with the Yuan army?
Zhang Lu and Pu Hu, Yuan Yue, and Du Hao, who were hiding in the Chinese army, couldn't bear it anymore after learning that the vanguard general Wang Ping was captured alive, and these high-ranking people in Dongchuan could only rush to the front army in person, commanding the soldiers, wanting to save a trace of morale, and see if they could take the last breath and imitate the 'battle of the backwater' to see if they could kill a way out.
The problem is that the first user of the battle of the back is Han Xin, and the middle one is Chen Yu, and the two are not on the same level! Naturally, there is no problem in winning the war.
And now, Zhang Lu, Yuan Yue, Du Hao and others are at most rookies who have just applied for a new number in making it convenient for fraud, and Yuan Shang, who has been fighting against Cao Cao all the year round, is obviously a boss with a level of 99+, which is clear at a glance.
As soon as Zhang Lu and the others arrived at the front army, before they could command, they heard a fierce drum sound, and most of the soldiers and horses of the Yuan army had already rushed from Zikou, cooperating with Pang De's ambush army on the mountain, and shouted loudly at the Hanba coalition army together.
"Surrender or kill!"
"Surrender or kill!"
"Surrender or kill!"
“…………”
The vanguard generals were captured, the earth-shattering drums, wanton shouts, the hooves of the iron horses running back and forth, and the smoke and fog of the fireballs in the field, a series of blows completely disintegrated the fighting spirit of the Han-Pakistan coalition army.
In the middle of the Yuan army, the soldiers and horses dodged a road, and Yuan Shang rode a horse and led the soldiers under his command to suddenly come out.
Yuan Shang held the horsewhip in his hand, and a pair of long eyes scanned the soldiers in the field back and forth, and then turned his head and glanced at Zhong Xuan beside him.
Zhong Xuan comprehended, stepped forward in two steps, and shouted at Zhang Lujun.
"Zicha, Han Zhen Minzhong Lang will be Zhang Lu, and Hanning will be divided. In response to the rebellion of Yan, the private soldiers entered the customs, his crime was very serious, and the crime was unforgivable, but he remembered that he had been sitting in Hanzhong for many years, accepting the displaced people, preaching good teaching, benefiting the people, the treasury was full, and he had meritorious deeds. Remembering his old honors, he doesn't remember his sins! Now the great Sima general Yuan, on behalf of the monarch to conquer, the Quartet rebelled, in charge of the military power of the world, now in the name of the Son of Heaven, to take over the armaments of Hanzhong and Bazhou, for the Son of Heaven to control the strategy, obey. They are all regarded as Wang Jun, and they are not guilty! However, those who disobey and disrespect will be regarded as disobedient and killed on the spot. And even the nine clans! No toleration! ”
With the arrangements in the field that were enough to disintegrate the fighting spirit of the Hanba coalition army, Zhong Xuan's words shook everyone.
People's hearts are eager to live, and if they are not forced to the last step, no one is willing to embark on the road of blame and death.
Moreover, Zhong Xuan's shout just now specifically mentioned the name of General Yuan Shangda, Sima Da. This is in charge of the military power in the world, Niu Er, the military attache of the imperial court, regardless of how far Yuan Shang and Liu Xie have quarreled. But at present, he is holding the official position given by the Son of Heaven, and he is like the sword of the Son of Heaven outside, and he is like the Son of Heaven, commanding the kings of the world.
The Son of Heaven, the imperial court, these heavy names pressed on the hearts of the Han-Pakistan coalition army at the end of the road, which made them respect and shame, and they couldn't face it.
After a long silence.
"Smack!"
A soldier of the Bazhou ethnic minority threw down the weapon in his hand, then looked around blankly, ran towards the opposite side, and then faced the Yuan army's Sen Sen Changge and Lin Lie's bow and arrow and squatted down in the middle of the road, waiting for it to fall.
When one person did it, everyone imitated it, and when he was young, he saw that the ethnic minority soldiers in Bazhou followed the example of their predecessors and ran towards the opposite side.
The seventh surnamed Yi Wang Pu Hu was shocked, he ordered the soldiers to stop, and at the same time brandished the war knife in his hand and slashed two soldiers, but the more this is the case, the higher the running rate of the soldiers, everyone is not stupid, no one will stay with you to be buried in this situation.
The people of the ethnic minorities in Bazhou have gone a lot, but Zhang Lu in Hanzhong has moved less, just because each of these soldiers is a believer in Wudoumi Taoism, they follow the department teacher Zhang Lu, and believe in Lao Tzu Wuwei for many years, although they are also afraid of death, but they are also afraid that after surrendering to the Yuan army, their faith will be suppressed and will be stifled.
The power of faith is sometimes very powerful.
Others may not know this point, but Yuan Shang knows very well that the binding power of the doctrine is powerful in people's hearts, and sometimes even exceeds life and death.
But obviously, the teachings of the Wudoumi Sect, which advocates Lao Tzu's inaction, are not yet perfect in terms of demagogy, and the clues can be seen from the hesitation of these ghost clans one by one not to work for Zhang Lu, so there are gaps to be found.
Thinking of this, he saw Yuan Shang slowly beating his horse and shouting at the other side.
"Yuan hereby promises, but all the soldiers who surrender, or the people under my rule, will follow the ancient Han law and will not be sealed and abandon the reason of faith! Not only that, but under the rule of Yuan, there will also be a great revival of Taoist families, as long as it does not involve evil deeds and worship, they will be opened, and all states and counties will set up Taoist private schools to spread doctrines, and all branches and departments are allowed to form factions. ”
After saying that, he saw Yuan Shang wave his hand and said, "Please Dao Ancestor!" ”
After that, I saw eight soldiers carrying a huge statue of the god, striding towards the field, the clay statue was none other than the body of the Taoist ancestor Lao Tzu carved by Yuan Shang's skilled craftsmen for several days, with a solemn face and a similar figure.
As soon as the statue moved out, but seeing Zhang Lu's ghost stroke, some people already knelt down in twos and threes.
"Dao Ancestor!"
"It's Dao Ancestor!"
"Quick! Meet Dao Zu! Fast! ”
"Kneel down and kowtow to Daozu!"
“……”
When Zhang Lu saw it, he was immediately shocked, and beads of sweat on his face fell down his cheeks.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! Yuan Shang...... Shameless thief! In order to disintegrate the military spirit of this Heavenly Master, even the statue of Dao Ancestor was moved out, and the means were simply inferior...... Alas...... This Heavenly Master is on fire again...... Immeasurable your uncle, if you move the liver fire, you will move the liver fire! Yuan thief, this Heavenly Master greets your whole family on behalf of Dao Ancestor! (To be continued......)
