Three Kingdoms New Malaysia Super League

Chapter 33 The only choice
The vast grasslands are endless.

Whether playing a mouse being chased by a cat or a cat teasing a mouse.This grassland can be regarded as an impeccable venue.

Three days later, Yan Xing no longer had the relaxed and proud expression he had at the beginning, and had already begun to divide his troops.

These three days were the three days when Yan Xing was hit hard.Before meeting Yan Xing, Ma Chao's five thousand fine riders were two riders per person.It was obvious that the Qiang people had already predicted that they would take revenge, and they had prepared a rogue posture in advance to escape.In the next three days, Ma Chao sometimes divided his troops to disturb Yan Xing's judgment, sometimes harassed in small groups in the middle of the night, and sometimes assumed a decisive battle posture, but turned around and fled when Yan Xing charged.

The only siege was when Ma Chao was marching after the first rain, when Yan Xing followed the horseshoe prints and chased him.

At that time, Yan Xing's tens of thousands of troops actually completely surrounded Ma Chao's troops. The east, west, and south sides clamored to cover up and kill them, while the north deliberately remained silent.According to Yan Xing's many years of experience, Ma Chao, who was only 15 years old, definitely broke through to the north, but Ma Chao seemed to have seen through Yan Xing's strategy at a glance, so he led [-] cavalry forcibly from the relatively weak defense of Heishuiqiang. Kill a bloody path and escape from Ascension.That time, Yan Xing wished he could cut off the head of the leader of Heishuiqiang!
The next few times, as the weather gradually cleared up, the trail was no longer easy to follow.Ma Chao also seemed to gradually become smarter and bolder. Not only did his whereabouts become more and more elusive, he even harassed and provoked Yan Xing's army more than once.

Ma Chao is like a mouse that has taken aphrodisiacs, it seizes the opportunity to bite the cat hard, and then flees thousands of miles before the cat reacts, making the cat even more angry but helpless.

Finally, today, Yan Xing had given up his plan to kill Ma Chao with a large army and planned to divide his troops to intercept Ma Chao.Of course, Yan Xing's division of troops was also very cautious. He divided the troops into four teams, and each team had more than four times the number of Ma Chao.In Yan Xing's view, no matter how cunning Ma Chao is, as long as he is entangled by one of them, and then the three troops quickly surround him from all over, Ma Chao will definitely be unable to escape!
"Three leaders, Ma Chao is as cunning as a fox, and there are many tribes that protect Ma Chao on the grassland. We are divided into four groups, remember not to fight alone, and always keep in touch by scouting horses. Once Ma Chao is found, immediately notify the other three to come. Siege!"

"Promise!" In these three days, Yan Xing was not completely fruitless, at least, after these three days, the leaders of the three Qiang tribes fully recognized Yan Xing's military skills.At this time Yan Xing ordered, but none of the three rebelled.

At this time, Ma Chao, who was hundreds of miles away, was also not at ease.

The previous heavy rain made it impossible for Ma Chao to eliminate his traces. Although Ma Chao successfully broke through that time, he also lost more than a thousand people. Afterwards, Yan Xing, who became angry from embarrassment, forced and doubled his actions day and night, making Ma Chao Exhausted.If Ma Chao hadn't inherited the cavalry skills of Xiliang Zhijin in history, coupled with his boldness and carefulness, he would have "when the enemy advances, we retreat; 'The essence of this sixteen-character guerrilla warfare is performed so well, I am afraid that I have not known how many times I have died in the siege of the army.

But even so, Ma Chao couldn't hold on to such a war of attrition, not to mention Yan Xing's home court advantage, which could facilitate supply.Just say that the gap in numbers made it impossible for Ma Chao to see the possibility of winning.

Therefore, when the scout reported the news ahead, Ma Chao felt a little relieved.

"Young master, five miles ahead, to the east is our road back to the Han land, and to the west is the camp of the Huangyang Qiang tribe. And within a hundred miles, no trace of the enemy has been found yet." The scout had already I haven't drank a drop of water for more than half a day, and many blisters have already formed on my chapped lips.However, although his expression was exhausted and haggard, there was still a raging fighting spirit flashing in his eyes.

"Well, very good, there is still some water here, you should drink it first." Ma Chao reached out and untied his sheepskin bag, and handed it to the scout.

"Young master, I'm not thirsty..." The scout didn't take Ma Chao's water bag, and replied obviously lying.

"If I tell you to drink, you can drink it. This time we are dealing with the Iron Qiang League, it is up to you to find out where you are, regardless of your life and death. If you don't drink water, how can you serve as our eyes!" Ma Chao feigned anger, hoarse at this time Saying these words, the throat also hurt like a knife.After all, he hadn't drank water for two days.

The scout just took the water bag, and after taking a sip, he handed the water bag to Ma Chao: "Young master, drink some to moisten your throat."

Ma Chao could clearly see that there was a kind of no regret in the scout's eyes that "a soldier dies for his confidant".Feeling grateful, Ma Chao also took a sip of water, and slowly let the coolness slide down his throat, before discussing with Pang De beside him: "Ling Ming, in your opinion, we should how to choose?"

"Young master, there is no trace of the enemy within a hundred miles at this moment, which means that the enemy will not catch up with us for at least a day. It is the right time to return to Handi and go straight to Fufeng." Pang De was also tired at this time, and his face was also covered In the past few days, the new wind on the grassland has been carved again, making Pound even more ruthless and resolute.Hearing Ma Chao's question at this time, he expressed his opinion without any hesitation.

"Then what if I decide to march west?" Ma Chao asked with a cunning smile on his face.

"The West? The West is the Huangyang and Qiang tribe!" Pang De was immediately shocked by Ma Chao's question, and shouted regardless of the pain in his throat.

"You all think going north is a dead end?" Ma Chao asked again.

"Yeah." Pound nodded back.

"That's right!" Ma Chao slapped his palms together, and said in a hey voice: "I expect Yan Xing will think so too. If there is no trace of Yan Xing in a hundred miles away, it doesn't mean that Yan Xing is not in the Han land hundreds of miles away." Waiting for us on the road!"

"Pound."

"exist."

"I order you to lead 2000 people to ambush near the Huangyang Qiang tribe. When our army attacks and kills the Huangyang Qiang tribe, lead the army to cover up and kill them."

"No!" Pound didn't understand Ma Chao's intention at this time?I just feel that my young master is really a military genius, and he dares to do it recklessly if he takes such a slanted way!
"The rest of you, follow me to the west, and rest on the spot before dark."

It's a big gamble!
What Ma Chao gambled on was that Yan Xing was smart and ruthless enough!

Through these few days of fighting, Ma Chao has deeply learned Yan Xing's abilities, and gradually understood some of Yan Xing's personality traits.

At the beginning, Yan Xing set up a strategy of encircling three and missing one, and it can be seen that Yan Xing is a very scheming general.Although Yan Xing was not sure of his position at this time, he would most likely wait on the road back to Handi.And if Ma Chao chooses to go east, not to mention that Yan Xing will definitely let Yan Xing wait for work.Just say that he escaped back to Fufeng by chance, what should he do after that?Let Yan Xing lead [-] troops to Fufeng County?
No, that was definitely not the result Ma Chao wanted!
Now that I have captured Fufeng County, I must ensure that Fufeng County will stay away from the flames of war from now on, and let the people of Fufeng County believe that the Ma family in Xiliang has the ability to protect Fufeng County from being poisoned by war. Step by step to display their own development plans.

Therefore, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, I tend to go to the mountains of tigers.This is Ma Chao's only choice!
