The matter of taking sides is a matter of standing in line. In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, in order to protect Zhu Lu, Empress Lu deliberately handed over the northern and southern armies to Lu Lu and Lu Chan before his death. These northern and southern armies were not only the Su guards of the capital, but also the standing army and field army with the largest number in the Han Empire. As long as there is the military power of the southern army and the northern army, they can basically control the capital and the imperial court; To control the imperial court is to control the whole world.

The ministers loyal to the Han family launched an operation against Zhu Lu, and Zhou Bo and Chen Ping sent Li Ji to trick Lu into handing over the military power; The minister in charge of the emperor's Fujie was also loyal to the Han family, and when Zhou Bo entered the northern army camp, he falsely claimed that the emperor had an order and the Taiwei was in charge of the army. Zhou Bo was able to go straight to the barracks of the Northern Army and said to the soldiers: Those who are for the Liu family are on the left, and those who are for the Lu family are on the right. The soldiers were all on the left. As a result, the Lu clan was quickly wiped out.

This thrilling struggle was widely spread, and Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty commemorated Zhou Bo's killing of Zhulu, and every year on that night he would go out of the palace to parade and rejoice with the people, and over time it became the Lantern Festival. Therefore, everyone present understands what it means to be left and right.

Han Sui didn't look at the changes in the next part of his command at all. Under the city of Caohan, there was a sudden dead silence. After a brief silence, Han Sui's soldiers lowered their heads and unarmed, rolled up their sleeves, and raised their exposed arms. Han Sui looked over, and as far as the eye could see, it was all left-handed!

That's charisma! Although Han Sui has been defeated again and again, he always has the spirit of not admitting defeat and not fearing death. Although the soldiers all knew that following Han Sui, the future and fate were much worse than following Ma Chao. But so what?! They are willing to follow such a king, even if it is ill-fated, what is it?

All the soldiers looked at Han Sui steadfastly, quietly waiting for his order. Han Sui's eyes moistened, this time it was not a politician's performance, but a true expression. Han Sui said: "Okay! You are all good soldiers of the old man, if you fight the sky like this, the old man will not be destroyed, and the old man will be rich and noble with you! ”

"Yui!"

"Obey!" Han Sui shouted.

The trilogy is solemn.

Han Sui said: "Dismount and fight, kill 300 horses, and exhaust the horse corpses into a base; The long soldier is in the front, the front and the left and right, the crossbowman is in the back, and the short soldier is in the middle! ”

"Yui!"

About 20,000 people dismounted one after another, and the long chaotic battle made these Xiliang soldiers skillful. Quickly transformed from cavalry to infantry formation, and the soldiers, armed with horses, spears, spears, guns, and long guns, rushed in front of the formation without hesitation, and mercilessly cut down 300 horses, piling up the carcasses of the horses as a barrier; Most crossbowmen choose crossbows that can fire three shots in a row, usually one person shoots crossbow arrows, and the other fills the former with feather arrows; Soldiers with swords, ring-headed knives, axes, hammers, and other short soldiers stood in the center of the formation. Yan Xing, Cheng Gongying, Zhang Heng, and Ma Play are each in charge of a soldier and horse, and Han Sui is in the middle and controls the overall situation.

A strict phalanx, relying on the walls of the city of Zaohan, was thus formed. Pang De's troops rushed in, the four hooves of the war horse stepped on the yellow sand and flew flying, Han Sui's soldiers could clearly see that Ma Chao's soldiers were rampant and cheerful on the horseback, waving ring-headed knives and spears. Everyone subconsciously clenched their weapons.

Ma Chao also saw the changes in Han Sui's department, and said with a smile: "Han Sui is really still the Han Sui I know, and he has never disappointed me." Brother Xiu, it seems that your wish has been disappointed. ”

Zhang Xiu said dissatisfiedly: "This Han Sui is really tough, and he dares to resist stubbornly when he is dying!" ”

Duan Xuan said contemptuously: "No matter how stubborn he resists, he is always just a useless struggle." ”

Ma Chao nodded and said with a smile: "Not bad." But I still admire him. He is an admirable adversary. ”

Zhang Xiu and Duan Xuan nodded in admiration.

After Pang De saw it, he turned back to the ministry and said, "Han Sui can't do his best, we have to teach him a good lesson!" ”

"Roar! Roar! The trilogue shouted feverishly in response.

The iron rider flew fast like a meteor, and was about to cross between the two loess valleys. At this time, something happened suddenly.

Suddenly, a scout rushed from the east of the city, panting and said, "Oh no, lord. From the direction of Jincheng came a convoy, led by a thin scribe and a plump scribe. When I asked them what they were here for, the two scribes said they had come to reward the army on behalf of the nearby fathers, and that the thirty or so carriages were full of wine and grain. I let him in and let them lead the convoy to the rear. Who knew that they actually drove to the battlefield with the convoy......"

"What?!" When Ma Chao heard this, he was shocked and angry. Who knows what kind of variables this sudden convoy will cause on the battlefield.

"Why didn't you search the convoy?!" Zhang Xiu said angrily.

"I asked for a search, but the two scribes refused to let me, saying that the wine was made in clay pots, and that I was afraid that I would break the jugs with a knife...... I was afraid that my father's heart would support the army, so I didn't insist anymore...... Please, the Lord rebuke..."

Ma Chao wanted to draw a knife and kill this person. But thinking that there are too many people in the army recently, it can be said that there are many people coming, and it is normal for this scout to be negligent. And it's night.

Ma Chao said sternly: "Go to the military discipline officer to get thirty military sticks!" If you make such a low-level mistake again in the future, you will kill yourself! ”

"Thank you, Lord! Thank you, Lord! The scout said happily and quickly withdrew.

Ma Chao was very worried, an inexplicable convoy suddenly appeared at this critical moment, it would not have an impact on the destruction of Han Sui, right?

Zhang Xiu said: "Brother, don't worry, there are only more than 30 carriages on the left and right, and Pang De has 10,000 horses." ”

"Yes, Pound won't even be able to swing thirty carriages, don't worry, lord." Duan Xuan also comforted.

Ma Chao suddenly remembered something and exclaimed: "Not good! He's going to block the road! ”

Ma Chao looked up, and there were two loess ridges in front of the Pound Department in front of him.

Zhang Xiu also reacted, and said in surprise: "Brother is saying that those two scribes want to seal a small pass formed by the two loess passes?!" ”

Ma Chao lowered his head and sighed. This scribe must have planned it a long time ago, and he was also familiar with the terrain of the city. It seems that he is determined to succeed.

Duan Xuan said: "Young master, why don't you quickly send a herald to remind Pang De?" ”

"It's too late." Ma Chao sighed.

Duan Xuan looked at it, yes, Pound was already a few miles away from them. By the time the herald passed, the scribe must have blocked the pass with a wagon.

The flat land between the two loess valleys is as wide as 100 steps, and the loess valleys are only two or three zhang high. It is a bit far-fetched to say that it is a small pass, more like a double que erected on the flat ground. Pound was about to kill when the neighing of horses suddenly sounded from behind the loess ridge on the right. Pound ordered the troops to stop with some vigilance, in case it was an ambush arranged by Han Sui.

But it was a galloping carriage that rushed out, and Pound was stunned. This was followed by the second, third, and fourth......

As soon as dozens of carriages drove into the middle of the pass, the coachman immediately stopped his horses.

But in the blink of an eye, the spacious little pass was filled with carriages, and there was not half a gap.
