The God of War in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 388 Zhao Hao Steals Food
On the official road from Jiujiang to Yuzhang, a team of grain transporters walked in an orderly manner.

And the leader of this army is Ma Teng.Ma Teng was sent by Chen Ran to escort the food and grass.

Naturally, the delivery of grain and grass was far from Ma Teng's own goal, but he obeyed Chen Ran's order to escort the grain and grass.

He also knows very well that what he is good at is cavalry. Now Chen Ran has all kinds of troops under his command, but there is no cavalry, so he can only be a hero and has no use for him.

However, he did not have any dissatisfaction with Chen Ran because of this. He knew very well that Chen Ran did not have cavalry now, but he was restricted by Yangzhou's geography and other conditions. Naturally, he would still have a chance in the future.

So when Chen Ran asked him to escort the grain and grass, he was also honest and conscientious, and did not dare to take it lightly.

"The road here is narrow and inconvenient to pass through. Please inform and strengthen your vigilance. Don't give the enemy an opportunity." Ma Teng looked around the road. The road here is quite narrow, and he was inexplicably worried.

The guard in his heart became more and more intense, and he led the army to continue to escort the grain and grass.

Suddenly, on both sides of the road, two rows of black shadows suddenly appeared. They were wearing rattan armor, holding the rattan shield and a machete in their hands, and they came to kill Ma Teng and the others.

"Enemy attack, prepare to fight!" Ma Teng's eyes were fixed, and his heart became extremely nervous, but Ma Teng was not a fool, although he suddenly met the enemy, he did not panic because of it.

He kept his eyes on these enemies without hesitation, and even if he ordered one person to ride his horse forward to ask for help, he naturally couldn't retreat. He escorted the food and grass, which was half a month's food for the army. If there was no food and grass, the army might collapse before fighting. up.

Therefore, he must fight to the death here, not to mention that there is food and no one will die, but at the very least, he cannot retreat easily until the last moment.

Seeing that the people who asked for help broke out of the encirclement before the enemy army formed an encirclement circle, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and concentrated his energy on these encircled enemies again.

He had never seen or heard of the rattan armor these people were wearing, unlike Yuzhang Shanyue, Ma Teng didn't know the details, but he could see the fierce fighting spirit of this army.

He didn't dare to take it lightly at all, he was already holding the spear tightly in his hand, the sharp edge of the spear was slightly cold.

"Are you the grain transportation team of the Han army?" Ma Teng was on guard, when suddenly he saw a person in the surrounding crowd turn his voice.

This person is also wearing rattan armor, but what is different is his appearance, which is obviously the appearance of Han people. These Shanyue people are similar to Han people, but the difference can be discerned faintly.

Ma Teng's expression turned cold, and he heard, "Are you Han?"

The man nodded quite complacently and said: "Yes, I used to be a Han, but today, I am Zhao Hao, the leader of Jingshou, and you are surrounded, if you continue to resist, you will surely die, surrender quickly, so as not to die! "

Ma Teng looked at Zhao Hao with murderous intent in his eyes, not expecting that this person was so brazen, he smiled instead of anger, and shouted: "Who do you think you are? You traitors and thieves, everyone can punish you, You still want to wait for me to surrender, and today I will definitely fight to the death!"

Hearing the word traitor, Zhao Hao couldn't help but change his face. He glared at Ma Teng and shouted: "You are so arrogant, well, today is your death day. Where are the rattan armored soldiers? Kill me!"

Ma Teng did not show any urgency, but calmly ordered: "All officers and men obey the order and form an array around the grain carts to intercept the enemy."

Ma Teng knew very well that there were not a few enemy troops surrounded from all directions. If it was hard steel, they would have absolutely no chance of winning.

Moreover, they still have grain carts, unable to deploy them.The best way now is to rely on food and grass to fight a defensive war.

Ma Teng has already observed that these enemies are all rattan armored swords and shields, and there are no archers. They rely on food and grass to form an effective defense. The enemy has no long-range output and cannot really cause damage to them.

After receiving Ma Teng's order, the [-] troops moved quickly. After rigorous training, they were shocked when they saw so many enemy troops encircling them, but they did not receive much impact.

The army turned their backs to the grain carts and formed a square formation to block the enemy.I saw that the rattan armored soldiers got Zhao Hao's order and killed them directly. Although they were out of formation and even a little chaotic, they seemed to kill them without the slightest consideration.

Ma Teng frowned, shot out suddenly, and shouted: "Fight!"

The direction of the spear was to stab at a rattan armor, and the force was not small. However, to Ma Teng's surprise, the spear pierced only on the rattan armor, leaving a little trace, a little No damage was done either.

Ma Teng's pupils shrank slightly, he seemed to know the reason why Zhao Hao was so confident just now, this rattan armor soldier really should not be underestimated.

He glanced slightly, and saw that other Han troops were also attacking the enemy. Unexpectedly, none of them could harm these enemies. The rattan armor on their bodies was of great defense.

Ma Teng came back to his senses again, he knew that this time, he might be in some trouble, so he suddenly raised his spear, and shot at the neck of the person in front of him, with lightning speed.

The rattan armored soldier wanted to raise his rattan shield to stop him, but he didn't care about Ma Teng's speed, so he was directly pierced through his throat. Without saying a word, he stared wide-eyed and fell to the ground dead.

Seizing the opportunity and beheading the rattan armored soldier with one blow, Ma Teng finally heaved a sigh of relief. Although the rattan armor is strong, it is not invulnerable, it can still be killed, so that is enough.

Ma Teng shouted loudly again: "Attack the enemy's weak defense, don't attack the armor directly."

After receiving Ma Teng's order, many soldiers also started to act, using long spears to attack the enemy's throat and other places.

However, Ma Teng's strength is no better than ordinary people, and his speed is far faster. How can these soldiers compare?These rattan armored soldiers defended and blocked with rattan shields in their hands. Although the other soldiers tried their best to attack, they couldn't really hurt the rattan armored soldiers.

Zhao Hao was shocked when he saw Ma Teng beheading a person easily and speaking out loudly again, but he was greatly relieved when he saw the next scene.

Although these rattan armored soldiers seldom went to battle, they had been trained for a long time, and they were handy in using various defensive methods. If Ma Teng was not too strong, how could they be killed easily.

Seeing this, Zhao Hao no longer worried, no matter how strong Ma Teng was, would he be able to beat fifty thousand rattan armored soldiers?At this moment, these thousands of Han troops were completely regarded as prey by him.

Zhao Hao said with a sinister smile: "Today is the time for you to die, kill!"

At this moment, the rattan armor soldiers were really launching the offensive. They moved flexibly, relying on the strength of the rattan armor and rattan shields, they easily approached the Han army and attacked and killed the Han army.

Ma Teng glared and shouted: "Listen to the orders, all the officers and men, one army of five, one ten of ten, unite for defense, and wait for reinforcements."

The army's fighting spirit was not weakened, so they replied in unison: "Yes!"
