Chapter 631: Cooperate with each other from afar, and the tiger is at the end of the road

When Jiang Wei made the decision to continue the march, several lieutenants soon expressed their puzzlement.

What those lieutenants were puzzled about was that even if they continued to march at the moment, judging from the speed of Xu Chu's march known from the intelligence, they were likely to arrive at Tongguan later than Xu Chu.

After all, compared to the light and simple travel of the Wei army, they carried a large amount of baggage, and these baggage was bound to slow down their marching speed.

Seeing that several subordinates were puzzled, Jiang Wei further said his thoughts:

"If you carry a baggage forward, you will let our army be overtaken or even surpassed by the thief army.

Therefore, in order to avoid this from happening, our army should also abandon its baggage and march lightly. ”

When Jiang Wei said his plan, the captains were all shocked.

Ma Chao's task for them was to rush to Tongguan as soon as possible, and if Tongguan had an opportunity, they would take advantage of the situation to attack it.

If there is no opportunity, it is necessary to set up a camp for the follow-up army as soon as possible.

And if they do what Jiang Wei said, then none of the tasks arranged by Ma Chao will be completed.

Jiang Wei has recently made a name for himself in the Han army, but compared with Ma Chao, Jiang Wei is only a fledgling "novice in war" after all.

In addition, Ma Chao's identity and status are there, and now when he learns of Jiang Weixin's order, it is likely to be behind the military order ordered by Ma Chao before, and it is normal for several captains to be suspicious.

It was just the surprise of several lieutenants that did not make Jiang Wei change.

"For the general, the decision should be made.

When our army set off, we did not expect that Xu Chu would decisively abandon the camp and leave.

Now, after our army learns of this situation, if it does not make corresponding adjustments according to the current situation, wouldn't it be no different from the stupid behavior of carving a boat to ask for a sword?

Don't worry, gentlemen, if the hussar general is to blame in the future, I will do my best.

And I expect that the hussar general will definitely want to change the military order at the moment, but the new military order is still far from being delivered. ”

Jiang Wei's words made several lieutenants suspicious, but they saw Jiang Wei's resolute attitude and Jiang Wei's guarantee, so they stopped persuading.

After several lieutenants left, Jiang Weixin's order was quickly conveyed to the whole army.

When they learned that Jiang Wei wanted him to abandon his baggage and rush to Tongguan, the ordinary Han army didn't think there was anything.

Thousands of Han troops faithfully carried out Jiang Weixin's orders as soon as possible.

Soon after, a large number of baggage was decisively abandoned by thousands of Han troops on the march, and after completing this event, the speed of the lightly armed Han army was greatly improved.

At least at this time, the marching speed of the Han army was by no means lower than that of the Wei army commanded by Xu Chu.

Seeing that the marching speed of the whole army had been greatly improved, Jiang Wei's face showed a smile.

The reason why he insisted on continuing to lead the army to Tongguan was that he saw farther than others.

Based on Jiang Wei's wisdom, it is not difficult to deduce that when Ma Chao learned that Xu Chu abandoned the camp and fled, he would definitely lead the elite cavalry to pursue.

Jiang Wei, who is a native of Liangzhou, knows very well how fast the Qiang cavalry will be once they spread out and march happily.

Ma Chao catches up with Xu Chu, it's just a matter of time.

And in this situation, what Jiang Wei had to do was not to let Xu Chu enter Tongguan before Ma Chao caught up with him.

If Xu Chu enters Tongguan, not only will Ma Chao's plan to hunt Xu Chu fail, but it will also invisibly increase the difficulty of attacking Tongguan in the future.

Therefore, what he has to do now is to take advantage of the current distance advantage and lead the army to Tongguan first.

Without baggage, he can't attack the city without hindrance, he can line up outside Tongguan, so that Xu Chu can't enter Tongguan.

In this way, there is no need to delay too much time, and Ma Chao will lead the army to support him.

As for the in-situ blocking proposed by a few lieutenants, there was actually no way to do it.

Because with the current surrounding terrain, there is no way for the Wei army to pass, if you can't line up on the Wei army's only way, even if you have the heart to block it, what's the use?

Since it is impossible to block it on the road it must take, then block it at the place where the Wei army must return!

And under the siege of the two phases, can Xu Chu still have a way to survive in the end?

Unless he is not a tiger marquis, but a bird marquis!

When Jiang Wei's Han army advanced towards Tongguan at a rapid pace, if you look down at the land of Guanwei from the sky, you will find that there are now three armies marching towards Tongguan on the land of Guanwei outside Tongguan.

The army closest to Tongguan was Jiang Wei's one, and the army farthest from Tongguan was the elite cavalry led by Ma Chaotong.

Sandwiched between the two Han armies, it was the Wei army led by Xu Chu who was like a sandwich biscuit.

Xu Chu led the army towards Tongguan while thinking back to the baggage he saw not long ago.

Xu Chu's face was very heavy.

Judging from the banners on the baggage, it is not difficult for Xu Chu to distinguish that the baggage belongs to the Han army.

And Xu Chu also knew before that long before he abandoned the camp, there was a Han army marching towards Tongguan.

But before, whether it was Xu Chu or Jiang Ji, they didn't care too much about that Han army - a large number of baggage with the army, the speed of the march was slow, so what to worry about?

But after knowing that the Han army abandoned the baggage, Xu Chu's face was always very heavy.

Even if Xu Chu couldn't see the intentions of the Han army, how could Jiang Ji not see it?

It's just sad that even if the intentions of the Han army can be seen at the moment, Xu Chu can only lead the remaining Wei army to continue to march towards Tongguan.

As Jiang Wei thought, Tongguan was Xu Chu's way back.

As a beast being hunted, even if he knew that his return was in danger, how could he change direction?

Besides, there is no other direction for him to change at the moment.

Xu Chu can only hope that after he arrives at Tongguan, he can use the help of the defenders of Tongguan to quickly defeat the Han army in front and back.

After nearly two days of rapid marching, Xu Chu, who was riding on a horse, finally faintly saw the majestic outline of Tongguan.

And as he continued to move forward, not only Xu Chu saw it, but even the Wei army behind him gradually saw Tongguan.

After seeing the unusually steep Tongguan standing between the lofty mountains and mountains, some Wei troops couldn't help but start cheering.

In the past two days, in order to boost morale, Xu Chu has been instilling in the Wei army the concept that they will be safe when they return to Tongguan.

The continuous indoctrination in the past two days has long made this concept deeply penetrate into the hearts of every Wei Jun.

At present, Tongguan is not only a pass in their eyes, but the hope of their life!

It's just that this excitement didn't last long, and as thousands of Wei troops crossed a high slope, the sudden scene in their eyes shocked many Wei troops.

At the foot of the high slope, outside Tongguan, there was a Han army of thousands of people, led by a young general, quietly lined up in formation and waiting for them.

Although the Han army did not build a good camp, it can be seen from the strict and orderly formation of the Han army that these thousands of Han troops are rare elite soldiers in the world.

And can they defeat the Han army in front of them at the moment?

This question could not help but arise in the hearts of many Wei soldiers.

When they set out from Tongguan, they were also rare elite soldiers in the world.

But after experiencing the battle of being ambushed by Ma Chao, only about half of their capable soldiers remained.

In addition to this, the malaise in the army's mind is the root cause of their current fear of the Han army.

Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers.

It's just that his own commander will do something to abandon the wounded, as the so-called rabbit dies and the fox is sad, Xu Chu's ruthlessness that day has long made Wei Jun, who followed him, palpitate.

Under the palpitations, how many people will sincerely die for Xu Chu?

Many Wei troops couldn't help but retreat after seeing the Han army that had already been arrayed.

They were wearing weapons around their waists, but at this moment, many Wei soldiers did not have the courage to draw their weapons to fight.

Many of the Wei army's retreats were soon noticed by Xu Chu.

After perceiving this scene, Xu Chu couldn't help but hate it in his heart.

The way of life is ahead, but in this case, they are retreating, and they are all timid and cowering!

If it was in the past, Xu Chu, who had a strong personality, would inevitably kill a few retreating Wei soldiers to vent his anger.

But now Xu Chu needs them to escort him into Tongguan, so Xu Chu can only shout:

"As long as you enter Tongguan, our army can be saved!

There are still thousands of defenders of our army in Tongguan, and they will come out to support us! ”

After Xu Chu's words of encouragement fell into the ears of many Wei troops, they did save the declining military morale of the Wei army to a great extent.

Many Wei troops glanced at Tongguan not far away, and many of them saw that a large number of comrades were gathering on the wall of Tongguan.

After perceiving this, thousands of Wei troops finally stabilized their morale.

Their steps no longer flinched, but followed behind Xu Chu decisively again, and rushed towards Tongguan in unison.

The revival of the military spirit of the Wei army behind him made Xu Chu overjoyed.

Riding on a war horse, he raised the big sword in his hand high, let out a roar, and then immediately killed the Han army in front of him.

Xu Chu's figure is still above Ma Chao.

Riding on a tall horse, he galloped rapidly, like an unstoppable tiger, and instantly killed in front of the Han army.

The Han army, who was in the forefront, hurriedly raised the spear in his hand and stabbed at Xu Chu, but Xu Chu, who had been in the army for many years, already had a lot of experience in the battle array.

His vast experience in warfare combined with his prowess made it easy for him to dodge several spears stabbed at his face.

After dodging the spear, Xu Chu, who reacted quickly, immediately raised the big knife in his hand and slashed towards the body of those spears.

As a standard weapon in the army, although the body of the spear in the hands of the Han army was wooden, it had also been treated with a special process, and the hardness could not be regarded as ordinary wood.

But what was unexpected was that under Xu Chu's vigorous chopping, the bodies of those spears were broken in response.

It's as fragile as tofu.

Xu Chu's vigor shocked the Han army.

Not only that, when the broken gun fell to the ground, Xu Chu raised his knife and fell down, and directly split a Han soldier in front of him in half.

A large amount of blood spewed out from the broken part of the Han army's body, and those blood splashed on Xu Chu's body unexpectedly.

Under the watering of a large amount of blood, the fierce and vicious Xu Chu is like a demon god, extremely arrogant and invincible.

Before the other Han soldiers could react from the shock, Xu Chu took the big knife in his hand and rammed into the array of the Han army.

Whenever the sword light flashed in front of Xu Chu, several Han soldiers would die under Xu Chu's knife, and their deaths were quite tragic.

Xu Chu's bravery, while disrupting the formation of the Han army, also greatly boosted the morale of the Wei army behind him.

The name of "Tiger Hou" is well deserved!

And looking at the Han army in front of him, Xu Chu's eyes were full of disdain.

Now that Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and Ma Chao are not here, then I have no choice but to be invincible!

Unexpectedly, when Xu Chu was staring at the moment, a flash of gunlight struck Xu Chu like a swimming dragon.

When the light of the gun came in front of Xu Chu, a loud shout exploded in Xu Chu's ears:

"Rats! Do you know Tianshui Jiang Boyo! ”

It doesn't matter if you are a tiger or not, today I will only treat you as a rat!
