Chapter 69: The Battle
After thinking about it, Ma Chao turned back to the morale of the troops and said, "Listen to the whole army, we will engage the rebels later, and you will follow me." I will lead you to smash the Chinese army into Gongying, and it will be crushed with one blow. ”
"Yes!" All the parts responded loudly.
Ma Chao also said: "The left and right flanks of the rebels will also attack our army from the left and right flanks at that time, but as long as our army rushes fast enough, we can rush into Cheng Gongying's Chinese army before the left and right flanks form a flank." Even if the left and right flanks really flank him, don't care about him, even if our army dies in battle, we must crush and kill Cheng Gongying's Chinese army! Do you understand? ”
"Understood!" The tribesmen shouted loudly.
Ma Chao said: "Okay, blow the horn, this is the charge, since Cheng Gongying underestimated our army's 2,000 horsemen, then let Cheng Gongying taste our power!" ”
"Yes!" The trilogy responded loudly.
Then, a sergeant blew the horn, and the low sound of the horn "woo woo" rang out in the four fields.
Ma Chao gritted his teeth, sandwiched Xiaobai's abdomen between his legs, Xiaobai raised his front hooves high, hissed loudly, and then his hind hooves exerted force, like a spring bounced out, and galloped towards Cheng Gongying.
The subordinates screamed one after another, patted the horse's buttocks with the back of the knife, and galloped away with the horse. Two thousand horsemen swept through the wilderness, and smoke flew from the earth.
Cheng Gongying saw that Ma Chao was still so arrogant even when he only had two thousand horsemen, and he hadn't even ordered the charge, Ma Chao dared to rush over first, and immediately waved the order flag and ordered the three armies to charge.
Thirty thousand horsemen rushed to the sound of horses' hooves like thunder, and the earth shook like mountains. In the smoke and dust, 30,000 horses are hidden in it, and there are countless of them, which can be called huge.
Ma Chao's eyes were firmly fixed on Cheng Gongying's Chinese army, and he even wanted to capture Cheng Gongying, the resourceful mastermind, in this battle.
In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two armies that were rushing in the opposite direction was only two miles. Cheng Gongying looked left and right, and ordered Yan Xing and Liang Xing to lead the left and right flanks to overtake the Chinese army, and flank him before Ma Chao led his troops to attack his Chinese army.
With an order, the left and right flanks quickly accelerated from both sides of the central army, and two torrents rushed towards Ma Chao. Ma Chao Khan has come down, and if he really lets the rebels flank him attack his weak flanks, he will definitely be defeated. Even if it doesn't matter, it won't help to focus only on the Chinese army. Ma Chao thought that for the sake of today's plan, he could only accelerate and rush over before the momentum of the pinch attack was completed.
Ma Chao turned around and shouted, "Speed up!" Hasten! ”
The tribes are two thousand flying horses, and the crotches are all rare good horses. However, the three armies of the rebels are all ordinary war horses, and their speed is naturally not as fast as Ma Chao's troops.
In order to maintain horsepower, Ma Chao never dared to let the trilogy urge the war horse, but now it is time to use the war horse. The tribal tribes slapped the buttocks of the war horses one after another, and the war horses were in pain, and finally exerted all the strength of their bodies, and the speed of the two thousand flying horses increased sharply.
Yan Xingzhi's left flank and Liang Xingzhi's right flank, like two trains rushing from two directions, saw that the two armies were about to crush Ma Chao's troops. With this acceleration, Ma Chao just rushed over a distance and escaped from the two armies.
Yan Xing and Liang Xing pounced and almost collided together. Without the left and right wings, Cheng Gongying's Chinese army appeared in front of Ma Chao.
In just the blink of an eye, Ma Chao rushed over with one of his first shots, stabbed down one of the Chinese army's horses, and two thousand flying horses also crashed in. Some of the flying horsemen are holding a ring-headed knife in one hand, a prancing horse raising a knife, and when they run past the rebel soldiers, they swing their knives over, and with the help of the potential energy of fast horses, they can cut off the rebel soldiers with one sword, or cut off half of the rebel soldiers' heads with a single sword;
Some are long soldiers holding long guns, spears, lances and other long soldiers with both hands, these sergeants are all fans of Ma Chao, and they all learn Ma Chao's movements, and use long soldiers to sweep down the rebel soldiers and dismount, or shoot straight out and stab the rebel soldiers, or when they see that the rebel soldiers also use long soldiers, they shake their wrists and drive the long soldiers in their hands to beat the enemy's long soldiers to the side, and stab the rebel soldiers in the exposed chest;
Some of them have the ability to gallop and shoot the enemy by passing past the rebel soldiers, first dodging a knife from the rebel soldiers, and then pulling their bows and arrows to shoot the enemy, or seeing from afar that the enemy is rushing towards them, they will first release the arrows and shoot down the enemy.
In this engagement between the two armies, Ma Chaojun defeated the rebels. As for the rebels, because the war horse they ride is not as fast as the horse super flying horse, they often just raise the ring head knife in their hands, and the flying horse rushes over first to give a knife with the help of the speed of the war horse under the crotch.
The hedge of cavalry is not like the battle of infantry. Due to the mobility and speed of the cavalry, once the two cavalry are hedged, it is necessary to lay out the formation loosely, just like the infantry is thin. In this way, it is convenient to rush out from behind the enemy's position after hedging. The two armies rushed against each other and rushed out of each other's formations, and the process was a fight.
Ma Chao's silver spear flew in all directions, knocking over, and piercing the rebels who rushed past him one after another, but he didn't see Cheng Gongying.
It wasn't until he led his troops out of the Chinese army that he saw that the ground where the two armies had just fought was already covered with corpses, and hundreds of war horses with dead masters were silently grazing with their heads bowed on the side. There were more than 3,000 corpses on the ground, mostly of rebel soldiers. There are very few of Ma Chaojun.
Ma Chao raised the corners of his mouth slightly proudly, and the ten pavilions went to the three pavilions, which was already a relatively big loss. Ma Chao looked at the messy Chinese army from afar, and Cheng Gongying was among them. Although he was not able to capture or capture him alive, Ma Chao was already thankful for the Chinese army that could defeat him, because even if it was only Cheng Gongying's Chinese army that was fighting, it was five times his strength.
Cheng Gongying also saw the corpses in the fluttering dust, most of them were his parts, and he regretted and angered in his heart. He decided that this time he must gather the strength of the three armies to surround Ma Chao.
Cheng Gongying ordered, and the three armies charged Ma Chaojun again. This time, the goal of the three armies is no longer to flank the attack, but to cooperate with the Chinese army on the left and right flanks to encircle and kill Ma Chao on three sides.
Ma Chao saw that Cheng Gongying ordered the three rebel armies to rush in three ways again, and seemed to be unwilling, and he wanted to play the trick of flanking left and right. Ma Chao was a little lighter than the enemy, galloped on his horse, and led his troops to fearlessly rush towards the rebels again.
As Ma Chao expected, this time the two armies of Yan Xing and Liang Xing still attacked him from the left and right, and Ma Chao's troops charged quickly, easily making the two armies pounce.
Ma Chao was about to repeat his old tricks and attack Cheng Gongying's Chinese army again, but found that the two armies of Yan Xing and Liang Xing were closely catching up behind him. It turned out that they were not flanking, but outflanking, going around behind his troops, and then surrounding him.
On this side, Cheng Gongying suddenly ordered the Chinese army to fire 10,000 arrows, and immediately shot down hundreds of flying horses, and even Xiaobai was hit by an arrow.
