Chapter 203: The siege is blocked

The military marquis was already frightened by this, but Du Bo was unwilling and shouted: "Stab again!" ”

The remaining more than a hundred spears stabbed at Ma Chao in the center at the same time, and with a swing of Ma Chao's long sword, he cut off dozens of spears and opened the rest of the spears that had survived. The strength was so great that even two or three enemy cavalrymen with weak strength fell off their horses because their spears were swept away. The rest of the cavalry looked at the wooden pole that had lost its spearhead and was dumbfounded.

This time, Ma Chao was no longer at the mercy of others, and rushed to the military marquis with his horse, wanting to cut off the head of the military marquis. In front of the marquis were dozens of cavalrymen, their spears still had spearheads, but as soon as they saw Ma Chao coming, they threw their spears one after another, turned around and ran. The cavalry ran wildly, the situation was chaotic, and countless war horses were crowded together, and it was difficult for Ma Chao to rush over and kill the military marquis. The military marquis also knew that Ma Chao was coming to take off his head, so he hurriedly fled.

Ma Chao saw that the loot that was about to be purchased was flying, and in front of him was a large group of enemy cavalry who were screaming in fear.

The military marquis commanded 500 people, which is already considered a high official position, so he carries an iron crown. As soon as the "broken city" flew, it directly pierced through the iron gaunt, and then cut into the head of the military marquis, and the sword had already pierced through the military marquis's face until the sword grid was blocked by the iron gauntlet. In other words, the entire "broken city" passed through the iron gauntlet, and a large section of the face was pierced. Sharp as it is.

Seeing that the military marquis was hit, the iron helmet was shattered, and then his whole body trembled, and he flipped forward weakly and got off the horse, Ma Chao was very satisfied, this "broken city" was really a sword.

Seeing the tragic death of the military marquis, the cavalry he organized scattered in a hurry and fled in all directions. At this time, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry also killed the enemy in the center, and a sergeant diligently jumped off the horse and pulled out the "broken city" for Ma Chao.

When Ma Chao looked again, Zhang Heng didn't know where to hide, and there were two or three sergeants struggling to cut down the banner behind Zhang Heng. The generals were nowhere to be found, the banners were cut down, and all the cavalry of the Han Sui army who entered the camp flocked to the gate of the village like crazy, so they trampled on each other and died, uncountable.

Ma Chao saw that the enemy army was crowded at the gate of the village, so he ordered the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to stop killing, so that when the enemy cavalry successfully escaped from the camp, he could also go out of the camp to pursue without hindrance.

Sure enough, after the Xiliang Iron Cavalry stopped, the enemy cavalry quickly ran out of the camp. Ma Chao led the iron cavalry in pursuit, and after catching up, he killed hundreds of cavalry, and the enemy cavalry gradually disappeared into the darkness, and Ma Chao ordered the troops to be collected into the camp.

Ma Dai was still waiting for an ambush, and Ma Chao was much more relieved, so he ordered the army to rest and recuperate, and calculated the casualties. In this ambush, Han Suijun threw down 3,400 corpses, and Xiliang Tie could not kill more than 500 horsemen, and the casualty ratio was almost six to one, and he won a great victory.

However, this is not the end, when he finally escaped from the terrible Xiliang military camp, Zhang Heng dared to take off the armor of an ordinary soldier he had snatched and put on his own armor again.

A little bit of men and horses, but lost most of them, and some people took advantage of the chaos to escape, Zhang Heng was very depressed, and led his troops to rush back to Anmi City miserably.

Just when they came to the city of Anmi, the remnants of the defeated army had just called open the gate of the city of Anmi, and countless torches were suddenly raised on the left and right, and Ma Dai stood up and shouted: "Zhang Heng, I have been waiting here for a long time on the order of my brother!" ”

Zhang Heng was shocked, Ma Dai immediately led the army to rush to Zhang Heng's remnants of the defeated generals, and the troops who had already suffered a heavy defeat had no intention of fighting at all, and blindly rushed to the gate of Anmi City. Zhang Heng also hurriedly rushed to the city gate.

At this time, Zhang Heng suddenly remembered Han Sui's entrustment to him, and shouted to the city wall while escaping: "Hurry up and release the arrow!" Hurry up and release the arrows! ”

At this time, Ma Dai's army had already rushed into Zhang Heng's army, and the two armies were mixed.

The defenders looked at each other, did not dare to release the arrows, and replied: "General, there are also soldiers of our army below!" ”

Zhang Heng was furious, if he didn't release the arrow, Anmi City would repeat the mistakes of Leyun City.

Zhang Heng shouted: "If the second and third sons don't release the arrows, we will deal with it by military law!" ”

As soon as they heard this, the defenders on the city wall released arrows one after another, and the rain of arrows shot the soldiers of the two armies under the city so that people fell on their backs, and many people were shot, screaming and falling off their horses.

Zhang Heng knew that the rain of arrows could not stop the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, who was not afraid of death, and as soon as he rushed into the city gate, he immediately ordered: "Close the city gate!" ”

“???” The defenders all looked at each other, still worried that there were still their own people outside the city.

Zhang Heng whipped his horsewhip and scolded: "Idiot, I told you to close it later, just close it quickly!" Fast! ”

The defenders then pushed the two gates, closed them, and then lowered the bolts.

Outside the city, Ma Dai swung his sword and flew an arrow, and saw that although the enemy cavalry was shot down by his own people, some of his own horses were also shot dead. Moreover, the city gate was closed, completely ignoring the fact that there were more than 1,000 enemy cavalry outside the city gate and did not enter the city, and he was disappointed. At this time, Anmi City cannot be captured.

Ma Dai ordered a retreat to avoid the rain of arrows.

The enemy cavalry who were locked outside the city gate frantically slapped at the city gate, hoping that Zhang Heng would open the city gate and let them in. But Zhang Heng was still afraid that Xiliang Tieqi would follow in, and he would not open the door if he died.

Ma Dai waited in the distance, knowing that these abandoned enemy cavalry had no other choice in the end.

Sure enough, seeing that Zhang Heng refused to open the city gate, and the city was still shooting arrows, the 1,000 and hundreds of enemy cavalry finally had no choice but to throw their weapons and come to Ma Dai to ask for containment.

Ma Dai saw that Anmi City had no chance to be captured, so he had to lead the soldiers back to the camp.

Ma Chao finally learned that Anmi City was not captured, but he was not too frustrated.

Ma Dai was very frustrated and said: "Brother, it's all the younger brother who is not doing things well, if the younger brother is faster, maybe he will have rushed into Anmi City and captured Anmy City." ”

Ma Chao shook his head and said, "It's not your fault. Han Sui has already taken precautions, even if you really rush into Anmi City, the city will be a well-prepared enemy army, and you will not be able to capture the city at that time, and you will lose many soldiers under the narrow city gate, which is not the result I want. ”

"Alas, even so, if you fail to capture Anmi City tonight, it will be difficult in the future."

Ma Chao smiled: "Who said that?" Tonight, there are nearly 4,000 horsemen who were lost in this battle, and you have surrendered 1,000 people, so presumably there are only 4,000 men and horses stationed in Anmi City at this time. In this way, is it not easy to attack? ”

Ma Dai was a little more excited and said, "What my brother said is true. ”

Ma Chao said: "Besides, Han Sui is a scheming person, I didn't think that I would be able to pull out one of his cities on the first day." Brother Dai must be mentally prepared, maybe this war will last for a long time. Our successful ambush tonight is already a big victory, and it further depresses Han Sui's morale. Losing morale, what else will Han Sui use to resist me? ”
