Chapter 585 Ma Chao returns to his position
It's just that right now, without the assistance of the war horse, Maxim's tall figure and long arms are useless, but he has become the best live target, with such a huge body, when Ma Chao rushes over, he doesn't even need to aim politely, he can stab the gun at his body.
"Woo yes." There are more and more wounds on his body, and Maxim is also furious. It is true that he is tall and has more blood on his body than ordinary people, but if he keeps bleeding, he thinks he won't be able to last long.
Knowing that if it continued, he was afraid that his life would be thrown here, Maxim thought of escaping, but without the help of a healthy horse, Ma Chao could catch up at any time and give him a shot.
Unable to escape and escape, unable to fight and beat, at this moment Maxim was so depressed that he couldn't let out the depression in his heart, so naturally there was only a loud roar.
The roar of a giant beast resounded through the battlefield, causing many people to tremble after hearing it, and that voice was filled with anger, fierceness, and more of a kind of helplessness.
After hearing the shout, the pace of the Rus' cavalry's attack began to increase significantly, and they also saw that the main general was at a disadvantage, and they wanted to rescue.
In the face of the onslaught of the cavalry of the Rus' Kingdom, the cavalry of the Celestial Empire also quickly formed a defensive formation, and then used the opponent's rapid attack to counterattack.
The more anxious people are, the easier it is to show their flaws, and the Rus cavalry who have already been distracted have already messed up their own positions, and then don't say that they want to save people, it is very good to be able to save themselves.
The soldiers wanted to rescue the commander-in-chief, and Alexander had the same idea, he had begun to abandon his defense and take the initiative to attack, trying to bypass Zhao Yun and save his general Maxim.
Zhao Yun saw Alexander's intentions, how could it be as he wished, the bright silver spear in his hand seemed to be glued to the other party, and in which direction the person went, the gun would fall in which direction, forcing the other party to be flawless.
After a short battle, Zhao Yun saw that Alexander's presence was extraordinary, and he also knew that it was not so easy to defeat the enemy, and the facts also proved that he could become one of the five tiger generals of the Russ powerhouse, and he was by no means an ordinary person.
Even if you can't do anything to the other party for a while, you can still be sure of entanglement. Zhao Yun decided to create an opportunity for Ma Chao.
Alexander failed to attack several times, but was almost injured by Zhao Yun, and had no choice but to be honest again, he now just hopes that Maxim can save himself and break out of the encirclement of the Celestial Empire army.
Save oneself?
Maxim really thought so, but in the face of Ma Chao's attacks again and again, he had already lost such an opportunity, and now he didn't say that he had escaped, but he felt extremely difficult to raise the big knife.
The blood on his body was flowing too fast, Maxim felt that the strength in his body seemed to be overdrawn, his eyesight had also decreased significantly, and the feeling of dizziness was getting heavier and heavier, so heavy that he just wanted to lie on the ground and sleep well.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ma Chao rushed again, and had noticed that Maxim's head was shaking a little at the moment, this time he was fighting with his horse, and the dragoon spear in his hand stabbed downward, and the target place was only his throat.
Maxim can only see Ma Chao's arrival at this moment, and he can't tell the specific location of the other party, so how can he hide from it? With just one shot, he felt a piercing pain, and then a bright stream of blood flew in front of his eyes, and then he fell asleep forever without knowing anything.
One shot in the throat, Maxim died!
Maxim died, and this scene was seen by many of the cavalry of the Rus' country who were trying to storm in from the periphery.
When they saw that the Lord was about to die, they knew that there was no point in impacting, and immediately they turned around and pulled out their horses and fled.
"Kill!" Under the momentum, Ma Chao raised the dragoon spear in his hand high and shouted.
With this shout, the Celestial Empire cavalry began a full-scale counterattack, and for a time the attacker and the defender switched positions.
Seeing the army retreating, Alexander knew that Maxim was afraid that something bad would happen to him, so he immediately drew a circle in front of him with the double sword in his hand, and after blocking the attack of the bright silver spear, he pulled out and fled, and the army in front of him had no morale, and he was afraid that he would not be able to leave if he stayed.
Alexander fled quickly, and by the time Ma Chao arrived on horseback, he had long been gone.
Seeing that the enemy's main general ran away, a trace of loss flashed in Ma Chao's eyes, but when he saw Zhao Yun on the horse, he really hugged his fists very respectfully and said, "Commander Zhao, thank you just now." ”
This thank you is indeed necessary, because if it weren't for Zhao Yun deliberately leaving some cavalry on his periphery, I am afraid that the Rus cavalry would be able to rush up to rescue Maxim, and he would have to admit this situation. Of course, the most important thing is that this time Zhao Yun did not compete with him, which is the reason why Ma Chao wants to say thank you.
"Captain Ma is polite, we are all working for the emperor, as it should be." With a smile on the corner of Zhao Yun's mouth, Yun said lightly.
Regardless of whether Ma Chao hates himself or not, Zhao Yun really doesn't hate each other. If the expectation is good, waiting for the war with the Russ Kingdom, he still has to stay in the north, and Ma Chao should be arranged there because he was born in Xiliang. At that time, the two are not connected to each other, and there will be no interest relationship, even if this is the case, how can there be any hatred?
Or it can be said that Zhao Yun has no selfishness in doing things, so he doesn't care about Ma Chao's hatred. But no matter what, at this moment, he was indeed very open-minded, which made Ma Chao a little ashamed after hearing it.
At least, Ma Chao didn't think that in a different position, he would not have done anything to Maxim just now. There is such a good opportunity for meritorious service, and he will not miss it. Zhao Yun can indeed do it, doesn't this mean that he is not as good as others compared to his heart?
The two had different thoughts in their hearts, but they didn't have much communication. Because the Rus' army withdrew, they were going to return to Zhang Chao to recover their lives.
Zhang Chao was in the tent, he had already returned to the tent from under the high platform, and after seeing Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, the two fierce generals, enter the account, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Okay, very good, you are very brave, and the soldiers under the ride are also very brave, award." ”
"Your Majesty." Zhao Yun and Ma Chao both fell to their knees and shouted loudly.
"Well, in view of the fact that General Ma killed the enemy general Maxim, he has made great contributions, and he has been restored to the post of commander of the Dragoon Army, and his former acting commander Ma Dai has been reinstated as deputy commander, is there any doubt?" When Zhang Chao said this, his eyes immediately looked at Ma Dai who was standing in the tent.
"Back to the emperor, there will be no general. Welcome the Captain of the Horse Legion to his place. Ma Dai fell to his knees with a plop, and he knew that his position as the commander of the legion would not last long, and now it seems that this is indeed the case. But he didn't have a sense of loss in his heart, he knew himself too well, and in the face of the fierce army of the Celestial Empire, his strength was really not enough to become a legion commander, and he couldn't control it.
Ma Chao returned to his position, and several other legion commanders and deputy legion commanders also took a deep breath, they were ready, that is, in the next battle, they must perform well and strive to be recognized and rewarded by the emperor.
It's just that these generals really don't know that after today's war, after the Rus State suffered a big loss, they have changed their tactics, and they are no longer trying to pick generals, but to use the situation of the army against the army.
It was General Alexander who made this decision, and today the death of Maxim and yesterday the death of Mordham made him sad.
Judging from the results of these two days, the Celestial Empire Army is indeed capable of producing many people, and the warriors are like clouds. If he continued to fight like this, it was really hard for him to imagine how many generals would be left around him, and without these brave generals, whose orders would the soldiers obey when they started a battle?
Alexander must not be able to fight like this, it is too much of a loss. Next, he will compare the military combat power of the two armies, and he will use soldiers against soldiers to see who is more powerful. At the same time, he also wrote another secret letter about what happened here, and sent it to the Emperor of Great Russ City. For the Heavenly Empire, just a legion will not work at all.
Early the next morning, Zhang Chao ascended the high platform, and several other legion commanders still had expectant expressions on their faces, especially Wen Chou, the deputy commander of the first legion, who had not made a move once, and was even more itchy. Thinking that if he picks a general today, it will be his turn. But who would have thought that this time the Rus Kingdom actually sent a large army of 30,000 to come forward, and at a distance of five miles, they directly set up a formation, and did not come out of a single general.
"I don't want to fight for generals, but I want to compete for the strength of soldiers." Zhang Chao, who was sitting on the high platform, watched this scene with a telescope and couldn't help but smile.
Alexander would have such a decision, which was expected by Zhang Chao. He is raising the strength of five legions of a country, and the other party is just one legion, so if he is a general, how can he be his opponent?
It's just that Zhang Chao never thought it would be so fast, he originally thought that there would be a few more days, but now it seems that the other party reacted quickly. "That's it, even if you want to compete in combat power, then as they wish, Zhong Kang, pass on the four legions."
The battle to compete for the total combat strength of the army began, which made several legion commanders a little disappointed, especially Wen Chou's disappointed look on his face.
There is no chance for personal performance, so they are determined to temper their legionnaires, this is a great opportunity, the two sides face to face you back and forth, and the soldiers who can survive on such a battlefield are the division of a hundred battles.
