Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1266

When the road meets, the brave wins.

The people in Xiliang have all come out of the slaughter and have never lacked courage on the battlefield, so the moment they encountered each other, the morale of both sides was rapidly inflated.

The murderous aura spread throughout the audience.

"Zhang Boluan, today, I'm going to behead you!" Ma Chao took the lead, full of arrogance, and the tiger-headed golden spear in his hand stirred up a murderous spear.

"Ma Mengqi, let's see whose head falls first!"

The majestic spear king of the north, why not be afraid of a horse, Zhang Xiu's killing intent is also very obvious.

The small stone river in the middle is only half a leg deep, so it can't hinder the steps between the two sides. At this moment, a big battle broke out instantly.

The two main generals fought first.

This is not a general.

It's just soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals.

In terms of strength, the Longxi Army is struggling.

Because the main force of the Longxi vanguard is only three thousand sons, while the northern army has a full five thousand soldiers and horses.

Not enough elites from Longxi, but the Northern Army was almost bloodied by Huang Zhong last year, and now it has not recovered its absolute combat effectiveness, and its troops are all made up of new young men.

"Ma Mengqi, give way, and I'll give you a way to survive!" Zhang Xiu killed fiercely, his Hundred Birds and Phoenix marksmanship has already been passed down by Tong Yuan, and it is even better than his elder brother Zhang Ren. After being killed, he played at a super level.

"you think too much!"

Ma Chao said coldly, Ma Chao's marksmanship is a bit complicated, but there is one essence, that is fierceness, the coherence between the attacking moves, and the moves are all desperate.

This kind of fighting move consumes a lot of strength, but the effect is not bad, it can fully suppress the enemy's momentum.

In fact, no matter in terms of cultivation or marksmanship, Ma Chao is not as good as Zhang Xiu.

They are also the younger generation of Xiliang.

Zhang Xiu is much more experienced than Ma Chao. Ma Chao is just a teenager now, not even a youth, and there is still a lot of room for development in the future.

But Ma Chao's fierce style of play can make up for this.

"Today, I have to keep your head!" Ma Chao roared, and the breath in his body showed no sign of slack at all, but became more condensed: "Cut!"

His spear was like a shooting star, a golden light streaked across the void, piercing through the void and hitting Zhang Xiu's chest.

"Don't be ashamed!"

Zhang Xiu is not an ordinary person. Facing Ma Chao's tactics, he fights steadily. As long as Ma Chao's energy is dragged down, he can control Ma Chao in turn.

In terms of real strength, the difference between the two is only half a catty and eight liang, so when they fight, it is not so quick to win or lose.

But the outcome of the battlefield is revealed.

The [-] troops of the North Land have a great advantage after all. Even if the [-] soldiers in Longxi make up for their elite strength, they are actually not comparable to the North Land Army in other aspects, such as weapons, battle armor, and battle formations. of.

If the Longxi Army could equip the Shangmu Army with equipment, it would be able to easily defeat the Beidi Army in this battle.

Now, it has begun to be at a disadvantage.

This small stone stream has already been stained with blood, like a river of blood...

"General, the casualties are too great!"

The lieutenant couldn't bear it any longer, and gave a loud shout.

"withdraw!"

Ma Chao backhanded a shot, forcing Zhang Xiu back, and reined in his horse and turned around.

This is just a tentative campaign.

No need to work hard.

If there are too many casualties, it is inevitable to withdraw.

"withdraw!"

The Longxi Army quickly withdrew from the battlefield.

"General, do you want to chase?" Several military princes of the Northern Army came up and asked Zhang Xiu.

"Don't chase after the poor!"

Zhang Xiu shook his head.

He didn't have the guts to pursue at this time.

It's better to be still than to move.

As long as the Longxi Army is temporarily repelled, the rest will be much easier to do!
………………

This side of the battlefield is somewhat spacious, and the transmission of news is also a little slow. The news of the battle between the Longxi Army and the Northern Army is only limited to this area.

Neither the Shaodang Qiang nor the Mujun have received any news about this for the time being.

Now Burning Dang Qiang is gathering soldiers and horses.

The dozen or so leaders headed by Ma Feng not only gathered soldiers and horses from more than a dozen tribes, but soldiers and horses from the outer tribes gradually began to accumulate.

But it has just begun to gather troops and horses, and the bad news has already come.

"Report to the leader, I burned the nine major tribes in the southeast of my tribe, and they have been pulled out by the Han people. The Han people burned my tribe's company camp, slaughtered my tribe's warriors, killed my tribe's people, and turned my tribe's pasture land into a piece of scorched earth. , This is to cut off our vitality!"

"I request everyone to send troops to the door and avenge us!"

The bad news came from the southeast, and the channel for the news to come back was brought by the tribesmen who escaped from the tribe.

Mu Jun moved too fast.

In less than a day, Shaodang Jiubu was unplugged, and at such a speed, it was like a strong hurricane blowing by, leaving Shaodang with no chance to react.

They had just sent troops to resist, but the nine tribes in the southeast were gone.

This dealt a blow to the chiefs of Shaodang Ministry.

"An eye for an eye!"

"Blood for blood!"

"We are not cowards when we burn the clan. Warriors, take up your swords and seek justice for our people!"

"Expell the Han people from our homeland!"

At this moment, the burning department is extremely united.

Especially in the face of the invasion of the Han people, this is a question of the survival of the tribe. Even if the leader of Shaodang is not there, no leader dares to provoke civil strife at this time.

The stage of life and death is naturally the most united time.

"So fast?"

Li Ru, who was burning the Ministry, was also taken aback when he heard the news. He expected that the Mu army would attack, but he never expected that the Mu army would attack so quickly.

"not good!"

Li Ru is a smart person, he can imagine that the Mu army was only in a confrontational situation, and the sudden dispatch of troops, which is a lore, must have a reason.

There is only one reason, the outcome of the Jishishan battlefield has already been decided.

Mu Jun is not just about worry-free.

There has even been assistance from the Qiang army.

In this way, not to mention the Qiang battlefield, even the entire Xiliang battlefield, no one could stop the Mu army.

"I can't stay here any longer!"

Li Ru stomped a little.

The speed of the Mu army made him a little uneasy. Once the Mu army had completed the encirclement of the entire Burning Department one day earlier, the Northern Army would not be able to leave.

Losing the Northwest is justified.

But if he can't take the Northern Army out, he's going to get nothing. How can he go back to face the new master, how can the Youzhou formation gain a foothold.

Therefore, he had to let the Northern Army break through.

The Qiang people were in chaos at this time, and they couldn't take care of him anymore. He also had chess pieces in the Burning Department.

Now is the time to use it.

That night Li Ru was silent, rode a fast horse, left the old nest of the Shaodang Department in Dayuzhong, and headed northeast, with the purpose of meeting Zhang Xiu.

..............................

When the Qiang tribe was fighting fiercely, the battlefield in Xiliang was also moving, and a big battle was carried out simultaneously.

Pang Ziying went north.

Without Ma Chao's resistance, how could Longxi be able to stop Pang Ziying.

Pang De personally led the army into Hanyang.

It took only two days for the soldiers to come to Jicheng.

He is not Ma Chao.

Even if Ma Chao has resentment or even hatred towards Ma Teng, he will not do anything to Ma Teng, but he is different, he will, and he has already paid back what he owed Ma Teng.

He is now a shepherd.

As a principled general, he couldn't think about it.

And let alone how loyal he is to the Mu family, no one can be ruthless than grass and trees, Mu Jing's respect for him has already opened his heart, at least he will not betray the Mu family during his service.

"The walls of Jicheng are high and thick, and we are short of troops. How can we fight?" Camping under the city, Pang De summoned all the generals and asked for countermeasures.

The Pangzi Battalion is not weak.

But in terms of siege, it is indeed insufficient.

Jicheng is still the Hanyang County city. This city can be regarded as a main city in the northwest. Indeed, there are few cities with such high walls and thick walls in the northwest.

So he was a little troubled about the attack on this city.

Not without confidence.

As the saying goes, if a raging soldier is a raging soldier, the raging raging will be a pot. Now Ma Teng is rumored to be unable to get up at all, and Ma Chao is not there. Among the Longxi Army, there are not many who can look like him.

Moreover, the man who led the army was actually Matthew, who he looked down upon, so he was even more confident.

But even if it is defeated, Pang Ziying will suffer a lot.

After all, the Longxi Army is the Longxi Army after all.

Even if Ma Chao took away most of the elite, there are still a lot of soldiers and elites left, and when they display their combat effectiveness, they can fight to the death.

"Surround but not attack!"

Cheng Gongying made a suggestion and said: "Lord Captain, we are currently attacking, which is not conducive to our own conditions. We only need to besiege, not attack, and we are shaking the city every day. The first one who can't stand it is definitely not us, but us." It's in the city!"

"This plan is very good!"

Pound accepted the ruse.

"Tap Tat Tat!!!"

The sound of horseshoes began to ring around the city. Although there are not many Pangzi camps, with all the horses added up, it is still possible to make up a thousand. There are thousands of horses, and the momentum they make is amazing. Really not small.

"Damn!"

"Damn Pound!"

In the past few days, Ma Xiu has become a bit of an heir to the Ma family. Ma Chao finally got out of the way, but he has not yet gained a firm foothold, and was suddenly besieged again.

Frustrated, he wanted to die.

Being besieged for the first time already made him unhappy, but he was not strong enough to dare to confront Ma Chao head-on.

Besieged for the second time.

He couldn't help it.

But when he saw the leader of the army, he faltered again.

In Ma's house, he was only afraid of two people.

One is Ma Chao and the other is Pound.

Whether it is Ma Chao or Pound, they are all determined by martial arts, and the talent for leading soldiers is even more extreme. He is young, but he can be known as a young hero in Liangzhou.

"The trend is over!"

Jia Xu still wants to struggle.

But the news has already come from the rear that the main force of the Mu army is heading straight to Tongguan, and the only troops of the Cao army stationed at Hulaoguan, there is no hope at all if they want to go south and west.

But the current situation in Xiliang couldn't be more obvious.

Ma Chao's betrayal made Xiliang lose all possibility.

It is already a general trend for the Mu clan to move into Xiliang.

"withdraw!"

Jia Xu could only make such a decision.

He is the same as Li Ru.

It is acceptable to lose Xiliang, but he cannot accept nothing. He wants to take Ma Teng and Ma Xiu away anyway. In this way, not only will there be a means to check and balance Ma Chao, but also a reason to counterattack Xiliang in the future.

…………

Sometimes plans are worse than change.

Many of Xiliang's military forces were already on the table, but after all, there were some soldiers and horses that were somewhat overlooked.

For example, Yan Xing.

Han Sui died in battle, and most of the soldiers were captured, including generals like Cheng Gongying. In the end, they either surrendered, died in battle, or struggled in the prison of the Mu army.

There are very few who can escape.

Yan Xing is one of them.

At the beginning when Han Sui blocked Mujing, the army was defeated. When fleeing, the soldiers split into two groups. Yan Xing lured the enemy, but escaped from the sky, while Han Sui took a detour, but he fell into the hands of Mu Jun .

So in the end, Han Sui died in battle, but Yan Xing escaped.

After Yan Xing escaped, he went through the fall of Chang'an, the defeat of Dong Zhuo, the bloody battle in Guanzhong, and finally fled to the west as a remnant of Xiliang soldiers.

He is very low key.

He only had [-] remaining soldiers and horses. He established himself in some unintentional areas between Xiliang and Guanzhong, near the grasslands to the north, and did business with the Huns, barely surviving.

After a year of rest and recuperation, he has now recovered his strength.

Naturally, I don't want to be so depressed all my life.

There is no hope for Xiliang, so he has no choice about joining Zhang Xiu or the Ma family. His choice is the Central Plains. He seeks refuge with one of the princes and achieves a great cause. This is his wish.

It also gave him a chance.

Liu Bei and Cao Cao settled down in Xiliang one after another. As one of the three northern princes, Yuan Shao had no choice but to send someone to fish in troubled waters, even if he looked down on these Xiliang barbarians.

The person Yuan Shao sent was named Feng Ji.

Fengji is a counselor.

A native of Nanyang, he followed the Yuan family in his early years, and later thought that Yuan Gonglu was not a hero, so he went north to join Yuan Shao, who was still young at that time, and now he is also regarded as Yuan Shao's adviser, second only to Jushou Tian Feng's counselor, and won Yuan Shao's trust.

Yuan's reaction was slow.

The Jizhou army controlled the Hanoi and Henan areas. After the defeat in the Battle of Guanzhong, they got back some sweetness, and they were in charge of half the sky in Guanzhong in name.

So he didn't care much about Xiliang.

But as the news of Xiliang continued to spread back, Yuan Shao didn't pay much attention to it, but his actions were too slow, and the forces in Xiliang were almost drawn over.

In the end, Fengji could only find Yan Xing's head.

Yan Xing can fight, and although his troops are not all strong, they can be regarded as having combat effectiveness. They are not those mobs. As long as they play well, not to mention gaining an advantage in Xiliang, they can at least disrupt the situation.

"Mr. Feng, the scouts reported just now that the Mu army has gone north and besieged Jicheng!"

Yan Xing has a bit of respect for this scholar. On the one hand, he is not an ordinary man, and he will not have any grudges against so-called scholars. In addition, he has few ways to go now. It is rare that Yuan Shao is willing to recruit him. He will not commit suicide road.

"So fast?"

Feng Ji has been waiting for news these days, and couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that the overall situation in Xiliang is a foregone conclusion!"

When the Mujun went north, many things have already been reconciled.

For example, the results of the Jishishan battlefield.

For example, the wishful thinking of the princes of Xiliang.

This is all on the surface.

"General Yan, you and Clan Mu don't share the same hatred, now I give you a chance, do you dare to fight?" Feng Ji's idea is also very simple, just disrupt the situation and make a voice that belongs to Hebei.

"dare!"

In Yan Xing's eyes, strands of blood crawled up.

Han Sui, as he said, is not an ordinary lord, but a father.

This is revenge for killing his father.
