Xiliang Iron Cavalry

After the Xiliang cavalry and Ma Teng's infantry were integrated, the number reached 800, and the thousand infantry who faced the enemy were more than enough to fight. What worried Jia Rong most was the pursuers from Wuwei City. He underestimated Geng Bi's thorough pursuit. His own determination also underestimated Cheng Qiu.

For several days, these infantrymen have been following the Xiliang army, and the distance has gradually increased, but Cheng Qiujun, like brown sugar, has been chasing Jia Rong tightly. There were many wounded in the battle, so the marching speed should not be too fast. Cheng Qiu was only two hours away from the main army, which meant that the 1000 people had to be defeated within two hours, and then continue to march after resting.

Just as Jia Rong was thinking about how to defeat the enemy, Tan Ma came to report again, and an enemy team of more than a thousand people appeared on the left.

Jia Rong immediately realized that something was wrong. The sudden appearance of two enemy troops was no accident. He underestimated the resourcefulness of the ancients. Since Geng Bi planned to eradicate himself, he must have had a deep plan.

Maybe Geng Bi had already deployed many enemy troops on his way back to Jincheng, just waiting for him to enter the net. There were enemy troops in front of him and pursuers behind him. Jia Rong was calm on the surface, but panicked inside.

"Go to investigate again, find out the details of the two enemy troops, and let the brothers carefully inquire about the situation in the surrounding ten miles, so there is no room for loss." Jia Rong ordered.

The scout clasped his fists and rode away as promised.

Jiang Yu said: "General, these two armies are nothing to worry about."

Jia Rong nodded and said, "Where are Cheng Qiu's pursuers behind us? As long as these enemy troops hold back our army's pace, when the pursuers arrive, they will attack back and forth, and our army will be in danger."

Jiang Yu's expression tightened, and he bowed: "The general leads the army to go first, and the humble officer leads a few soldiers to stop the rear."

Ma Teng also clasped his fists and said: "The humble official is willing to lead the troops of the headquarters to meet the enemy."

During the past two days of getting along, Ma Teng found that in the Xiliang Army, he did not feel depressed at all as in the Gengbi Army. On the contrary, the soldiers and generals got along in harmony, helping each other and competing with each other. There were Qiang and Han people in the Xiliang Army. The news, he must feel incredible.

There is one thing in common in the army, whether it is an ordinary soldier or a general, Ma Teng has an unimaginable enthusiasm for military exploits. From their mouths, Ma Teng also learned that whether it is an ordinary soldier or a general in the Xiliang Army It is necessary to rely on military exploits to step up step by step, otherwise it will cause Pao Ze to look down upon him.

Jia Rong shook his head and said, "That's not right, Mr. Geng Bi must have plotted against me for a long time, and the way back to Jincheng might already be full of enemy troops."

Now Jiang Yu panicked, and said anxiously: "Then what should I do?" Ma Teng's face changed after hearing that.

Jia Rong sneered, "Geng Bi, Geng Bi, it's not so easy to take my life."

"Teach Geng Bi a small lesson first, order that all soldiers prepare to meet the enemy." Jia Rong gritted his teeth and said, being plotted repeatedly, the anger can be imagined.

Jiang Yu Ma Teng clasped his fists as he promised, and drove his horse away.

Looking at the rough map in his hand, Jia Rong's eyes became more determined. This map was drawn by Xianlian Pavilion with a lot of manpower and material resources. The map includes Liangzhou and Bingzhou. The level of detail of the map is in Jia Rong's opinion. It's just average, but there are very few maps that can reach this level in the whole big man.

On the map, Jincheng is particularly conspicuous. In his heart, Jia Rong still wants to return to Jincheng.

After the news of the whole army meeting the enemy spread, all the soldiers immediately made preparations for the battle. Ma Teng went to boost the morale of the troops in person. This was the first time Ma Teng had fought the enemy since he joined Jia Rong. He didn't want to be in full view Under the embarrassment.

Jia Rong took a look at these so-called enemy troops, but couldn't bring up any fighting spirit. The enemy was too weak, and he had several ways to quickly defeat the enemy.

Compared with the Xiliang Army, it is not an exaggeration to describe this army as an army of beggars. The clothes are ragged, there are people of all ages and children, and they are uneven. What is even more ridiculous is that even the flag in the army has a hole rotten and flutters in the wind. , people can't help laughing.

Even Jia Rong didn't expect that watching the enemy's dress up became the best way to boost morale.

The two armies met each other, and a general walked out of the enemy's formation and shouted: "I am Yu Liang, the captain of Tuci County, and I have been ordered to capture you and other rebels. If you surrender, this captain will protect you in front of the county magistrate." Fate, if it is not the case, I will make you and the others decapitated."

Jia Rong smiled nonchalantly, "Does Captain Yu know who I am?"

Yu Liang raised his voice an octave, and said loudly: "You and the others are rebels in the troubled village. Seeing my army coming, why don't you surrender!"

As soon as the words fell, the soldiers behind Jia Rong laughed loudly.

Yu Liang's expression changed again and again. In fact, when he saw these soldiers, he had already retreated. From the faint blood stains on the soldiers on the other side, it could be seen that Yu Liang himself was not very talented, and he could be a full-time county lieutenant. With the usual flattery and bribes, he has come to the present step by step, and he is smooth and shrewd.

Yu Liang was thinking of defeating the enemy without fighting, and he cut down the morale of the opponent with a few words. This is what is said in the military books. Unexpectedly, painting a tiger is not a dog, and attracting the ridicule of the opponent improves the morale of the opponent. In fact, Yu Liang doesn't understand. What is morale? I only know that it is useful on the battlefield.

Jia Rong pouted at Zhang Zhi, Zhang Zhi understood, patted his horse and stepped forward, and said loudly: "The one behind me is the prefect Jia Rong Jia. When I see the prefect, don't hurry up and come to greet him."

Yu Liang couldn't help shivering. In Liangzhou, he might not have heard of Geng Bi, but he had to know about Jia Rong. Han Sui was such a formidable character that he was completely helpless when Jia Rong beat him.

Sensing the movement of the soldiers behind him, Yu Liang yelled: "Don't talk nonsense, the rebels dare to use the banner of the imperial court order, and the army obeys the order and prepares to meet the enemy."

What Yu Liang said made the soldiers of Tuci feel more at ease. If the person facing him was really Jia Rong, they would probably turn around and leave in fright. Their little county soldiers can fight.

For some reason, seeing the other party's own words moved, Yu Liang actually believed that the general who was questioning just now was Jia Rong, but Jia Rong's situation was not optimistic. I couldn't help but look tired on their faces, especially Jia Rong, whose left arm was somehow wrapped in white cloth, and the blood was faintly visible.

Thinking of Geng Bi's death order to himself, Yu Liang couldn't help but smile wryly, and stopped this deserter at all costs, why did Yu Liang not want to run away.

Jia Rong also wanted to let the opponent run away without fighting. I didn't expect Yu Liang to be very smart. He couldn't stand in front of the camp and explain vigorously that he was the prefect of Jincheng. The best way is to scare the enemy and then explain. for maximum effect.

"Jiang Yu and Ma Teng, each of you will lead 200 troops, one from the left and the other from the right to attack Yu Liang!" With injuries on his body, Jia Rong had no choice but to order the two of them to charge forward.

"No!" The two clasped their fists in unison, looking at each other provocatively.Yu Liang was not a fool. After seeing the gap between the two armies, he immediately ordered the whole army to defend and huddle together to minimize the lethality of the cavalry to the camp. His purpose was simple, to drag Jia Rong's army down.

In private, Ma Teng and Jiang Yu are considered brothers, but they are completely different on the battlefield. Brothers still know how to settle accounts, let alone the Xiliang Army, where military achievements are extremely important. Even if Jiang Yu agrees, the cavalry under his command will not would agree.

Ma Teng led [-] infantry to attack from the left, and Jiang Yu led [-] cavalry to attack from the right. It can be said that Jiang Yu took advantage of it. On a wide battlefield, a cavalry can easily kill several times his own infantry. The effect of infantry against infantry is very poor.

Ma Teng was very helpless about this. He also had war horses, but let a group of infantry fight on the horses.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yu Liang immediately hid among the soldiers and shouted loudly: "Get ready to meet the enemy, spearmen and shield soldiers step forward, and archers get ready."

When the spearmen and archers Yu Liang was talking about walked to the front of the camp, the Xiliang army laughed again and again. What are they called spearmen and shield soldiers? A small round wooden shield is probably very difficult to block arrows. The long spear in the soldier's hand hadn't been polished for some time, and there was a little rust on it.

Yu Liang blushed, and encouraged him again: "Everyone, don't be afraid, our reinforcements will be here soon, and General Cheng will arrive with tens of thousands of horses in no time."

"Killing an enemy will reward you with money twice, and beheading an enemy general will reward you with a hundred guns and you will be promoted to three ranks." Yu Liang shouted, pointing at Jia Rong who was not far away.

Money is also useful on the battlefield. Yu Liang's words mobilized the soldiers' fighting spirit to the greatest extent. Driven by money, the soldiers' eyes gradually changed from erratic to firm.

The charge of the cavalry was not what the beggar infantry in front of them could resist. A shower of arrows took away the lives of dozens of soldiers. The shields were useless under the sharp bows and arrows. I don't know how long these shields have been stored in the arsenal. Jiang Yu even doubted whether the swords and guns in the hands of these soldiers could kill people.

The Tuci county soldiers shot back a shower of arrows, but the sparse arrows did not have much effect. In addition, all the Xiliang cavalry were skilled in riding, so it was easy to dodge such unskilled flying arrows.

Seeing that his own archers had little effect, Yu Liang squeezed between the soldiers again after changing his expression, as if this would increase his sense of security.

As the distance gets closer, the speed of the cavalry increases, and the power of the cavalry is also strengthened to the greatest extent. The long spears in the hands of the Xiliang cavalry have become the reminders in the eyes of the soldiers. One shot can even penetrate two soldiers. Soldiers The tragic death caused the soldiers in the rear to change color.

After going back and forth like this, the soldiers in front kept shrinking back, and the soldiers in the back didn't even want to step forward. You pushed me and yelled.

Yu Liang raised the bargaining chip to kill the enemy again and stabilized the flustered situation, but still no one was willing to step forward. After seeing the combat effectiveness of the cavalry, they lost confidence in the weapons in their hands.

However, under the stimulation of money, these soldiers still supported hard, and the densely packed infantry really blocked the cavalry from advancing.
