Chapter 67 Retreat all the way
Feng Ye had already released Hai Dongqing, and there were only two ways to support Chang'an's army, one was Ma Teng and Han Sui from Xiliang. The other way is Yizhou Mu Liu Yan.
These two groups of people, it is worth paying attention to the two of Xiliang Ma Teng and Han Sui, these two people raised an army of 100,000 troops, and they are the people who pose the greatest threat to Feng Ye.
Xiliang is relatively desolate and sparsely populated, and the reason why Ma Teng and Han Sui have so many troops is because they have a lot of Qiang people under their command.
"Tai Shici, you take the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry to guard Chang'an City, send more detective cavalry, and can't let half a grain of grain be transported into Chang'an City. Feng Ye ordered.
"The last general commanded. Tai Shi Ci said with a fist salute.
"Other generals, follow me to stop Ma Teng and Han Sui. Feng Ye said decisively.
"Lord, after leaving General Taishi behind, we only have 20,000 Youzhou Turf cavalry, and it is too dangerous to attack Ma Teng Han Sui's 100,000 army, it is better to let the last general take people to conquer Ma Teng Han Sui and the two, and the lord will lead people to blockade Chang'an City." Hua Xiong persuaded him.
Feng Ye waved his hand and said, "Needless to say, I have made up my mind." Liangzhou is barren, and the Western Liang Iron Cavalry trained by the imperial court before is under Dong Zhuo's command. In the hands of Ma Teng Han Sui, even if there is a Xiliang Iron Horse, there will not be many of them. They can't afford it.
Don't look at the so-called 100,000 army to the outside world, in fact, most of them are Qiang people, and it would be good to have 20,000 or 30,000 under their own command. So it seems that the army of 100,000 is menacing, but in fact it is just a paper tiger. ”
Don't look at Feng Ye's mouth, General Ma Teng Han Sui's army belittled for a while, but he still attached great importance to it in his heart, and the reason why he said that was just to boost morale.
Secretly, he had already sent a message to Zhao Yun Feiying, asking Zhao Yun to attack Ma Teng Han Sui's army first, Zhao Yun had already wreaked havoc on the land of Sanfu a month ago, and he was very experienced in doing this kind of thing now.
Raid the states and counties along the way, and steal grain and grass. It was precisely because of Zhao Yun making trouble here that Cao Cao was unable to bring all the grain from all over the country into Chang'an City. Although there is a certain amount of grain reserves in Chang'an City, it will certainly not be so abundant.
The speed of the white horse's righteousness and guerrilla warfare is really a headache. Now the headache is Ma Teng and Han Sui, and their 100,000 troops originally came to support the imperial court with confidence.
Before, they had also heard how powerful the White Horse Yicong under Feng Ye was. But it was never taken to heart. No matter how powerful they think, it's just the same as Xiliang Tieqi.
They have been fighting with foreign races for many years in the land of Xiliang, and they have never been afraid of anyone. What's more, now that they have an army of 100,000 under their command, they are even more complacent.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he left Liangzhou, he was beaten on the head by Zhao Yun with Bai Ma Yicong.
"Report, my lord, there is a cavalry in front of you, all on white horses, about 10,000 horses. The scout reported.
Ma Teng said to Han Sui: "Brother Wen Yue, all white horses should be the white horse righteous servants under the command of Feng Ye's traitors. Known as the first cavalry in the world, on the grassland outside the Saiwai, the Hu people killed were cold.
Wait for me to meet him, see what he is capable of, and dare to be the first in the world in front of my Xiliang Iron Rider. ”
"Brother Xian, let's go, wait for me to watch the enemy formation for you, and see how Brother Xian defeats the White Horse Yicong. Han Sui said with a smile.
Ma Teng looked at the white horse on the opposite side, everyone had white helmets and white armor, and the white tall war horse under his crotch was a head taller than the average war horse.
Compared to his war horse, he is as short as a donkey. Behind him is still a snow-white coat. This equipment is really heroic.
With such equipment and such a war horse, even he, the enemy army, looked at this equipment and yearned for it, if it was so equipped, how good would it be to be under his command?
"Charge with me, let those embroidered pillows on the opposite side, and see how powerful I am waiting for Xiliang Tie to ride. Ma Teng shouted to boost morale.
Following Ma Teng's side, the one who charged at the front was the only 10,000 Xiliang iron cavalry under Ma Teng's command, and the one who followed the Xiliang iron cavalry behind was the Qiang cavalry he recruited.
Zhao Yun looked at the cavalry on the opposite side who were charging over, although the number of the other party was several times that of the white horse Yicong, but he did not have the slightest worry.
He has seen a lot of this situation in the years of conquest of the grasslands, and he has defeated more cavalry charges than this.
"Where righteousness goes, life and death go hand in hand! The sky can be learned, and the white horse is the proof!" Zhao Yun shouted loudly and took the lead in leaping out of the horse, followed by the white horse Yicong. Just when the two armies were about to fight, Bai Mayi was greeted with a rain of arrows.
Suddenly, many Xiliang iron horsemen who were charging forward were shot off their horses, and it would be better if they were killed by an arrow, but the worst thing was that those who were only slightly injured, but were shot off their horses, were trampled to death by the large army that followed.
Ma Teng was also under the desperate cover of the guards, so he was not injured. He looked at the white horse on the opposite side hatefully, thinking that the two armies would meet immediately, and it would be the time for revenge.
Unexpectedly, just when the two armies were about to meet, Bai Ma Yicong suddenly split into two, like a separate wave of water, and moved to both sides, and at the same time, the bow and arrow in his hand did not stop, shooting one by one Xiliang iron cavalry off the horse.
Ma Tenghe had encountered such an opponent before, and he did not fight him head-on at all, but only shot arrows around them. The arrows were still extremely accurate, and in just one moment, his Xiliang Iron Cavalry lost nearly one-fifth.
I wanted to catch up with the other party and fight in close combat, but I found that I couldn't catch up with the other party, the tall white war horse was running too fast, and these damn white horse servants could still shoot arrows while running.
Although the accuracy rate is not high, the other party has not lost a single loss, and there are people on his side who are constantly falling off the horse. Ma Teng had the intention of retreating, but found that Bai Ma Yicong had already caught up with him.
Chasing, can't catch up, hit, can't hit. Run, can't run away. On the contrary, he was constantly mounted and shot by Bai Ma Yicong, and lost a large number of soldiers. If it continues like this, I'm afraid that it won't be long before morale collapses.
Ma Teng has been fighting for many years, and he has never encountered such a difficult opponent.
"Quick, hurry up and get back to camp. Let those Qiang people break off. Ma Teng yelled. Xiliang Tieqi is the elite of his subordinates, and without these subordinates, his position is unstable. The Qiang people were only hired for money, so naturally they were dead friends and poor people.
It's time for this kind of escape, after the family is broken, no one is stupid, naturally no one will follow Ma Teng's orders and rush to escape for their lives one by one.
The mounts of Xiliang Tieqi are all selected good horses, which are far faster than ordinary horses. When charging, Xiliang Tie rode the fastest, and when he escaped, he still ran faster than others.
In fact, these people are still lagging behind and becoming the shield of Xiliang Iron Cavalry. Pursued by Hakumayi from the Ouroboros. All of a sudden, I don't know how many people died.
Zhao Yun didn't break into the camp, just put an arrow outside the camp and chose to leave. Storming the camp will inevitably bring losses, and it is not necessary. The enemy could not retreat, just as he went to attack the grain road.
The others did not have Feng Ye's spatial supernatural powers, and the grain and grass that the army could carry were limited, so they could only rely on the continuous transportation from the rear. to be able to feed the army.
With Bai Ma Yi from such a fast elite army, Ma Teng and Han Sui were about to die of headaches, and they didn't know how to deal with this fast-moving cavalry.
In the past, when they fought with other people, they relied on speed to bully others. Now it's hard to be suppressed by people in terms of speed in turn. In order to protect the grain routes, they could only send a large number of troops to escort them along the way.
But he was still harassed by the white horse servants every day, and he was dying every day, and his morale was declining day by day. From the day he met Bai Ma Yicong, Ma Teng Han Sui's 100,000 army could not move forward, and could only close the gate every day and guard it tightly.
When Feng Ye rushed over with the Youzhou Raid, he saw such a situation. To say that Ma Teng and Han Sui were originally anti-thieves, they were recruited by the imperial court for a few years.
The arrival of Feng Ye's army made the already low morale of Ma Teng Han Sui's troops even lower. It's just that a white horse has no way to do it, and now that the enemy's large army has rushed over, what hope do they have?
I'm afraid that even escaping has become a luxury, "Why don't we make peace with Feng Ye." As long as he lets you and me return to Liangzhou, we will not be enemies of him. He shouldn't have time to take care of us now. Han then came up with an idea.
"Now let's retreat, and when Feng Ye defeats the alliance of princes, I'm afraid that we will have to change the dynasty.
At that time, what can you and I do? It is even less of an opponent, it is better to take advantage of the current alliance of princes, there is still a glimmer of life. Ma Teng retorted.
Han Sui put away the contempt for Wufu in his heart, just glanced at Ma Teng and said, "If Feng Ye can really defeat the coalition army and change the dynasty, of course we have to surrender to the past." That shows that Feng Ye has achieved the general trend, and we are not opponents at all. ”
"Since you have to surrender sooner or later, why don't you surrender early?
Han Sui endured it again, and said with a smile: "What if Feng Ye is only a strong outsider and is defeated by the coalition forces?" So now let's just retreat to Xiliang first, preserve our strength, and then wait and see."
As long as we have strength in our hands, no matter who is the final winner, we will not be treated badly. ”
When Han Sui said this, Ma Teng also reacted, and said in agreement: "Then withdraw the troops, but you need to send someone to Feng Ye to make peace first, if we withdraw the troops now and are pursued by the tail, the loss will be too great." ”
When Feng Ye received Ma Teng and Han Sui's request for peace, Feng Ye was also a little puzzled, how could these two people surrender as soon as they saw him with an army of 100,000?
When Zhao Yun came back from the attack on the grain road, Feng Ye knew that Ma Teng and Han Sui had been beaten head-on by Zhao Yun, and the spirit that was about to run rampant in the world was gone.
