Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 2301: Scouts vs. Fire Cavalry, Death of the General
"Generals, Ma Yuan and Dou Xian are both famous generals of the Jin army, and the Golden Fire Cavalry are the elite cavalry!"

"It's not his fault that my brother is unable to win quickly!" Kublai Khan explained for Tolui.

Although they were rivals, and because of their different political views, the two sides often fought in the court. In this relationship, they did not actually get along harmoniously.

However, it must be said that Kublai Khan was a man with great vision and a sense of the overall situation. He did not add insult to injury again, nor did he belittle Tolui in front of these two important Yuan and Mongolian generals.

"Ma Yuan, Dou Xian, these are old friends!" After hearing these two names, Murong Ke and Murong Chui nodded in understanding.

These two people are indeed old friends, but they are not their old friends, but Yuan Meng's old friends. Although they have never fought with these two people, many people in Yuan Meng have fought with them.

Dou Xian, there is no need to talk about his previous resume. The battle with Liu Yuan alone has already explained everything. After that, Tuolei took action himself and gained the upper hand and won a small victory. Moreover, he still had the advantage of home court.

Ma Yuan, when he was in Liangzhou, had already intimidated the Qiang and Hu people. When Su Dingfang conquered the Qiang, some of them were conquered by the Jin army, some fled to the plateau, and a small part fled north to the Yuan and Mongolian states.

After that, Ma Yuan was stationed in Hezhou and Bingzhou for a long time, and he was definitely an old acquaintance of the Yuan Mongols today.

The Golden Fire Cavalry is even more familiar to everyone!

This cavalry is actually not very famous in the Han Dynasty. It is far less famous than cavalry such as the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the Three Thousand Battalion.

Of course, it is not famous among the Han people. After all, this cavalry has never attacked the Han forces.

However, they have always been active on the battlefield with the Yuan and Mongolian armies, and they are also the main force in the battle with the Yuan and Mongolian armies. Among the many Jin armies, this unit is the number one enemy of the Yuan and Mongolian armies.

This army is comparable to the Qiexue.

"Ma Yuan and Dou Xian have arrived with their troops. However, only Ma Yuan's troops, with 3,000 entering Yumen Pass and 7,000 entering Dunhuang. Dou Xian's Golden Fire Cavalry are stationed outside, like a sharp blade piercing one's back." Kublai Khan explained the battle situation on the front line to Murong Ke and Murong Chui.

Although Yumen Pass is important, its importance is actually even greater than that of Dunhuang.

However, cavalry is not suitable for defending the city. Otherwise, why didn't the Golden Fire Cavalry enter the city?
The current Golden Fire Cavalry is said to have 10,000 people, but in fact there are less than 8,000 left! In the battle of Xianmei City, the Golden Fire Cavalry was forced to defend the city, and these gaps were lost in that battle.

The reason why more troops are tilted towards Dunhuang is also due to logistical pressure!

Twenty thousand cavalrymen, that's not twenty thousand mouths, that's sixty thousand mouths.

Moreover, the pressure from those 40,000 mouths is not comparable to the pressure on logistics caused by the previous 20,000 mouths.

Although Yumen Pass stores a certain amount of food and supplies, it is still not as good as Dunhuang City. Therefore, if too many troops are sent there, it would not be a good thing.

In fact, even within Dunhuang, a batch of food and supplies originally shipped to Xizhou happened to be here, but with so many mouths to feed, the logistical pressure on them, who were isolated and without help, was not small. Therefore, for them who could not communicate with the outside world, this reinforcement was a good thing, but the problems they faced still existed.

If the blockade of the outside world cannot be broken for a long time, the supplies in the city will be consumed even at a slow rate.

"During this period, my brother fought with Dou Xian many times, although his military strength was greater than his, and even the Tanma Red Army did not count casualties. However, he lost 3,000 soldiers, but only killed and wounded 2,000 Golden Fire Cavalry!" Kublai Khan continued.

When Temujin attacked Xianmei, Tolui was responsible for leading tens of thousands of troops to sweep Liangxi, but the progress was slow. Even under his command, some Yuan Mongolian generals suffered losses one after another at the hands of Ji Gao.

Although he was not the direct commander, he was the chief coach at that time and those generals were nominally under his command. If the battle was lost, he had to take some of the blame.

As a result, he was scolded again and again by Temujin, and finally, he had to resort to the tactic of driving the people to attack the city.

It was also because of the Battle of Liangxi that although it seemed that a lot of territory had been occupied, Tolui's performance was not satisfactory, which made Tolui so crazy and used the elite Tanma Red Army and the elite Golden Fire Cavalry to fight to the death.

However, although the Tanma Red Army was considered the elite of the Yuan Mongols, it had only barely stepped into this threshold. Compared with the Golden Fire Cavalry, there was still some distance between them. Even with their numerical advantage, their casualties were still greater than those of the Golden Fire Cavalry.

However, Tuolei relied on the soldiers he had available and didn't care about this. He could afford this loss.

Dou Xian certainly didn't want to play this game with him, but at the beginning, Tolui, unable to catch the Golden Fire Cavalry's flaws, directly ordered Wang Xiaojie's head to be handed over, and spread the news that Jia Fu would be publicly executed.

Dou Xian had no choice but to try to rescue the fake Jia Fu after carefully confirming the deployment of various Yuan and Mongolian troops several times.

However, although both were open schemes, Dou Xian's methods were obviously superior to Li Ling's. He made a feint and forced Torre to reveal his true colors in advance. He did not completely follow the opponent's thinking, but instead started a war prematurely.

It was in this battle that Dou Xian saw clearly the other party's intention. This bastard wanted to exchange his life with him. After killing them all, he could boldly attack Dunhuang and Yumen Pass to achieve the goal of supporting the Yuan and Mongolian troops in Xizhou to enter Liangzhou. Compared with achieving this strategic condition, it was worthwhile to pay a little loss in the process.

After seeing this clearly, even if Tolui threatened him with Jia Fu again, he would not be able to really jump out.

Are you kidding me?
Even if Jia Fu had some backing, he wouldn't risk the entire battlefield collapsing to save him!

If the entire battlefield collapses because of him, then he will never be able to atone for his sins even if he dies a hundred times!

Didn't Jia Fu have a father who was a minister? Didn't Dou Xian have a backer?
No matter what, he is still a relative by marriage, no matter how insignificant he is, he is still a relative by marriage.

It would be fine if he just watched someone die without helping, but the problem was that he was not watching someone die without helping, but had sufficient reasons. Even if something unexpected happened to Jia Fu later, it would not be his fault.

With or without a background, if you encounter the same problem, there may be exactly these two answers!
