Hundreds of comrades died under the rain of arrows, although Zhang Ji suppressed his anger against Ma Teng's father and son, he didn't want to give up easily and let go of those Liangzhou rebels.

The hatred of the death of a comrade needs someone to be buried for him.

If he can't do it head-on, he can hit the side and bite at the weak points of their forces.

Subsequently, Zhang Ji led his subordinates and Ma Teng's troops to completely cease down, leaving only one hundred and ten people with torches to open the way in front, and the others followed from the beginning, taking advantage of the moonlight, which had already risen to the middle of the sky, and went the opposite way, diagonally inserting into the back road of the rebels.

At this time, on the south bank of the river, the sound of people was boiling, and the sound of horses' hooves once raced the sound of the big river rushing.

Zhang Ji stood on the edge of the mountain range openly, looking at the mighty grand scene on the river valley plain.

"Although the enemy army is scattered in formation, it is all over the mountains and fields, but it can be closely connected, and no matter where we attack, we will attract enemy troops from all sides." Ma Chao said.

"Then we'll wait here." Zhang Ji said.

Ma Teng asked, "Why wait here if you have no place to start?" ”

"My lord, I think it's probably because the enemy's real goal is us. If they can't find any trace of our army, they will definitely make another plan. Whether they are marching to Jincheng, or scattering their forces to the mountains on the south bank, they are looking for our traces. At that time, we will all have a certain opportunity to take advantage of. Ma Chao guessed and explained.

Zhang Ji didn't speak, and he acquiesced to Ma Chao's statement.

Hundreds of robes lost their lives in vain because of the chaos of Ma Teng's trilogy, so that Zhang Ji had no intention of joking with Ma Chao.

Ma Teng bowed his head slightly, and said: "In this way, I personally led my soldiers and horses to stare at the east, in case the enemy army followed us and came in the dark." Chao'er, you restrain your subordinates, and you must obey General Zhang's orders. ”

To the east was the direction they had just come, and the enemy troops coming from the water route were most likely behind them.

Ma Chao was a little unconvinced, why did he have to obey Zhang Ji's orders.

But looking at the old father's stern eyes, Ma Chao lowered his head a little depressed.

But he is still a little incomprehensible, does the old father really want to sincerely join the imperial court?

"General, look!"

Zhou Mu, who was standing beside Zhang Ji, suddenly let out a loud cry and pointed to the north, which was about ten miles away from them.

In the place close to the south bank of the river, the sound of killing suddenly shook the wilderness, and a dense firelight spread its fiery wings in the sky like locusts, and fell into the enemy line with the cold wind of the night.

That's a flurry of rockets!

"It's my own people." Zhang Ji stood up and said intently.

"It may be that General Xiahou has arrived." Zhou said dumbly.

Zhang Ji showed a relaxed smile on his face and said, "If he doesn't come again, I don't know how this battle will be fought." Labor and management have always thought that I can still fight, but there are too many enemy soldiers, and I can't help it! ”

Zhou smiled bitterly, he felt struggling, "General, do we want to go down now?" ”

"No, wait." Zhang Ji shook his head and said, "Let this kid Xiahou Yuan contain the enemy army first, and when the enemy army closes, we will brush their flanks." It's useless to rush down now, it will only make our army and Xiahou Yuan trapped in the chaos of the enemy army. ”

"Whoa!"

Ma Chao glanced at Zhang Ji and did not speak.

"Hey, how did they go?" Zhou mute suddenly muttered.

Zhang Ji looked at it intently and said, "It seems that this kid Xiahou Yuan is not stupid, and he uses the same tactics as us. Once they retreat, the enemy's forces are huge, and if they fall in love with battle, they will instantly fall into the enemy's crowd tactics. ”

"But the enemy army has many foot soldiers, and our army and Xiahou Yuan are all cavalry, this is our advantage. We can run, run on them, fight as we go. The enemy advances and I retreat, and the enemy retreats and I advance, consuming them and exhausting the dogs. ”

"Look, look, isn't the enemy's military formation chaotic!"

Zhang Ji pointed to the battle on the plain of the river valley that could only be judged by the light of fire, and laughed loudly.

Xiahou Yuan's troops couldn't retreat for a mile, and suddenly killed a horse pistol and tore out of the enemy's military formation.

This move caught the rebels off guard, and the military formation, which was already neat and not very close, scattered in an instant.

Xiahou Yuan's brilliant battle made Zhang Jiyu's mood lift.

He pointed to the battle at the bottom of the mountain and said, "Surely you have never seen this trick, have you ever seen a farmer milling grain?" ”

"You see, the enemy army is scattered in numerous handfuls, and it is like the dishonest grain. In this case, in addition to watching them scatter and flee, you have to form this fan-like military formation and crush them. ”

"But this style of play is also suitable for this kind of open field, which cannot be used at all on a narrow battlefield."

Zhou listened with a serious expression, and nodded again and again, "General, in a narrow battlefield, it seems that the enemy army can't run around like this......"

Zhang Ji was stunned for a moment, and then scolded in a low voice, "Rabbit cub, you're smart, aren't you?" Watch! ”

"Oh, it's a good ......" Zhou responded in a low voice.

He hadn't touched the military book and couldn't read a few words, but he could understand this style of play.

"Xiahou Yuan, this kid can be regarded as having played the pulling battle clearly." Zhang Ji clasped his hands with some excitement, "Look, the enemy advances and I retreat, detours, attacks its wings, and cuts vertically and horizontally." ”

“啧啧，厉害啊，两翼纵横斜切，在敌军收拢兵力之时，送他几轮箭雨，又迅速后撤。”

"The enemy gave up and closed the imperial guard, and immediately repeated the old trick again, this general on the back of the rebel army has definitely been defeated by Xiahou Yuan now, and he can't understand this battle."

Ma Chao listened to Zhang Ji's excited battlefield explanation, and then looked at the court cavalry below that was constantly changing formations.

Suddenly, he had a new understanding of war.

This battle is indeed about to be beaten out by Xiahou Yuan.

But this style of play is by no means something that ordinary people can play.

Not to mention anything else, just the order and prohibition of the ministry can stump a large group of generals.

In battle, it is not easy to let the soldiers order and prohibit, and order the command to be like an arm and a finger, pointing where to fight.

Obviously, this cavalry of the imperial court was also well-trained.

Even the combat quality far exceeds that of Zhang Ji's trilogy.

"I think it's time for us to send troops." Ma Chao's heart was also a little hot.

The battle that took place on the south bank of the Great River at this moment was undoubtedly a feast of battle.

Such a silky and happy cavalry rode and slashed, if he couldn't participate in it himself, Ma Chao felt a little regretful.

"Wait." Zhang Ji shook his head and rejected Ma Chao's proposal, "The enemy army has already surrounded you, and Xiahou Yuan will face an enemy army several times larger than himself." Next, even if his tactics are played clearly, they will definitely not be so easy, we must be prepared to do this again on the enemy's skin swallow. ”

He looked at Ma Chao, "Restrain your troops in advance, even if you can't point where to fight, but you must not run around." What happened before, I don't want to see it a second time. ”

"You don't need General Zhang to bother, I will explain it to them clearly!" Ma Chao's tone was a little hard.

"I hope so!" Zhang Ji snorted lightly.

Xiahou Yuan was too happy behind the enemy, and soon attracted all the enemy troops.

Even the enemy troops on the waterway went up the river and leaned over.

A huge encirclement was rapidly closing towards the location of Xiahou Yuan's army.

But just as the encirclement was about to take shape, in the northeast of the enemy's army, another army suddenly came out.

"Gan Lin Niang, Xiahou Miaocai, you don't treat labor and management as people!" Zhang Ji bared his teeth and came out with a classic greeting, "You obviously know that labor and management are on the battlefield, but you still hide ambush soldiers, don't believe me?" ”

The slaughter of the troops and horses in the northeast also frightened Ma Chao.

They appeared so suddenly, as if they were in the midst of the enemy's formation, and suddenly appeared in the sky.

"General Zhang, can I take the liberty of asking, how many soldiers and horses did the imperial court use this time?" Ma Chao couldn't help asking.

He was a little curious now.

And there is a ridiculous illusion, always feeling that the imperial court seems to be hiding countless soldiers and horses around.

"Just two, it's just to destroy Han Sui, how many soldiers and horses do you need to use?" Zhang Ji said.

The corners of Ma Chao's mouth twitched slightly.

Straight thief, I believe you are evil!

"Then let's continue to watch?" He asked angrily.

"Look, look, don't worry." Zhang Ji, who was already preparing to send troops, sat down steadily.
