The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 27 Zhang Liao's suggestions
"Since 'Gust of Wind' is here, let's stay!"

At this moment, a long laugh came, and immediately saw a group of nearly a hundred people pouring out from various houses, rushing straight behind him, and Wei Tao was the one in the lead.

"Mr. Zhao Xiang has done a good job. After this time, he will definitely be rewarded a lot!"

"Bastard!"

Hearing Wei Tao's call, the third master didn't hesitate at all. With a loud shout, he drew his sword and swung at Zhao Yi who was beside him.

Then Zhao Yi was just a commoner, and he couldn't react to such a change, and he was cut into two pieces with a single knife.

"Turn to meet the enemy! Turn to meet the enemy quickly!"

After beheading Zhao Yi with a single blow, the third master immediately shouted orders desperately.

Can't help but the three masters are not in a hurry.

You must know that the biggest threat to cavalry is that they are unstoppable when they run. Once they stop, the power of cavalry will at least be reduced by half.

So once it comes to siege battles, it is often necessary to rely on infantry.

Now that everyone is crowded here, being attacked from the rear, there is not enough distance for the cavalry to start sprinting, so it is just a lamb to be slaughtered.

It's a pity, although the third master is already considered a decision, but you must know that this is Mayi City.

Mayi City was originally not big, and was blocked by many horse riders, and there was not much room for it. How could it be so easy to turn the horse's head around to meet the enemy?
At this moment, Wei Tao smiled coldly, and swung the hand he just raised suddenly.

Immediately, I saw a cold light shooting from a high speed, the target was the third leader who was directing many horse bandits!
"laugh!"

"what……"

The third leader was also careless, he underestimated Wei Tao from the very beginning, and he didn't expect that someone would set up an arrow in the back, and he was immediately pierced by an arrow!
If you look carefully, isn't this the arrow they sent not long ago?
"You're asking for your own death!"

Wei Tao couldn't help but sneered coldly in his heart, if the other party hadn't offered him a good bow and arrow, he might not be able to shoot and kill the leader in one fell swoop.

"kill!"

With a loud shout, the spear is like a dragon swimming, and it can pierce a horse bandit in one fell swoop.

"kill!"

Seeing Wei Tao taking the lead, all the sergeants shouted loudly and attacked and killed them one after another.

Originally, all the horse bandits were crowded into a group, and the rotation remained the same. The leader of the third family was easily shot and killed on the spot, and without a host, all the horse bandits were in a mess.

Then Wei Tao attacked and killed several people in a row, and all the horse bandits were in a panic.

"Those who dismount and surrender will not be killed!"

"Those who dismount and surrender will not be killed! Those who dismount and surrender will not be killed!"

At this moment, Wei Tao shouted again, although they were all horse bandits, Wei Tao didn't mean to wipe them all out here.

This time there were also two hundred horse bandits who attacked Mayi. Once they really fought, Wei Tao would also suffer heavy losses.

At this moment, we can see that Wei Tao's "capture the thief first and capture the king" is powerful. If the third leader who was the leader of the opponent hadn't been shot and killed directly, the opponent would not have panicked to this point.

Under such panic, many horse bandits really dismounted and surrendered after hearing Wei Tao's words.

Although some fierce people not only did not surrender, but desperately stopped them, but Wei Tao's strength is not weak, the spear in his hand moved continuously, and instantly cut him off the horse, and soon made all the horse bandits no longer dare to resist .

Once the weapons were removed, even the horse bandits would be greatly reduced in power. At this time, Zhang Liao came from afar.

It was Wei Tao who ordered Zhang Liao to hold his bow and secretly looked for an opportunity to shoot and kill his leader.

"Wen Yuan, the matter here is left to you. Firstly, these people will be detained separately, and in addition, all the horses will be taken care of."

Wei Tao immediately ordered to go on.

"promise."

I have to say that this time was indeed extremely thrilling, and it was only at this time that Wei Tao had the opportunity to examine his own situation.

Although the horse bandits were caught off guard, after some inspection, it was found that more than a dozen people died, and half of the rest were injured. At least five or six of them would not be able to go to the battlefield again.

This time, the strength in Wei Tao's hands was reduced by about a quarter.

But in the same way, there were more than 200 horse bandits attacking, and Wei Tao captured more than 150 people this time, which can be regarded as the victory of the weak over the strong.

"Master, this time the horse bandits have been severely injured by us, I'm afraid they won't let it go. If the horse bandits make a comeback, in Mayi, a place where there is no danger to defend, they may not be able to resist at all."

At this time, Wang He looked around to see if there was no one around, and persuaded Wei Tao again.

"With the ferocious nature of the horse bandits, I'm afraid it's not surprising that the entire city of Mayi will be slaughtered. The next decision cannot be based on any method."

"Uncle Wang wants me to quit Mayi?"

Wei Tao didn't feel any embarrassment for saying this to Wang He, or had any opinion on Wang He.

He knew that Wang He was doing it for his own good.

In fact, Wang He has always been disapproving of Wei Tao's going to Mayi. Such border areas are too dangerous. Even if Wei Tao wants to become an official, he doesn't have to take such risks.

At the same time, Wei Tao also understood that this time was actually just luck.

If it weren't for Zhang Liao's extraordinary ability, he would have killed the third leader of the opponent with one arrow, and these horse bandits were not well trained during the day, and they would be in chaos.

Otherwise, according to Wei Tao's approach, even if he can win, I'm afraid it will be a miserable victory in the end.

So Wei Tao was silent for a while.

At this moment, Zhang Liao stepped in, with a somewhat uncontrollable joy on his face.

"Wen Yuan, what's the good news?"

"This time I really caught my lord. The horse bandit 'Gust of Wind' is indeed preparing to deal with General Gao Shun, so this time the troops are divided into two groups. One is to destroy us, and the other is to ambush General Gao."

Zhang Liao obviously got the information from the captured horse bandits.

"According to their plan, they want to intimidate us, let us ask General Gao for help, and then send people to destroy us, and then pretend to be our army, join in when the two armies are fighting, and directly attack the Bingzhou Army, so that General Gao The troops were in disarray and won in one fell swoop."

"This is a good plan. Could it be the guy who was shot by Wen Yuan with an arrow?"

Wei Tao nodded. Although the plan was simple, even if Gao Shun was prepared, the sudden addition of such a force with unknown enemies and friends during the battle between the two armies was enough to cause confusion in Gao Shun's army.

"That's not true. That guy is the third leader of 'Gust of Wind', and he is quite smart. In addition, it is said that there is a second leader among the gangsters, but he is a brave and unscrupulous person."

Zhang Liao obviously learned a lot from those captives.

"This matter must have been done by the leader of 'Gust of Wind'. Obviously, the leader is not an ordinary person."

"Wen Yuan has a plan?"

Wei Tao smiled at this time, he could feel that Zhang Liao seemed a little relaxed at this time.

"That's right. I've heard it said that the leader of the 'Gust of Wind' has led people to ambush General Gao in an ambush at Yanmen Pass, some distance away from Mayi. I'm afraid that 'Gust of Wind' didn't expect us to be able to do so easily. Annihilate this group of people, if we directly raid their cottage at this time, we will surely achieve great success."

Hearing Wei Tao's question, Zhang Liao turned serious and spoke seriously.

"The horse bandits are always just horse bandits, just mobs. Once the back road is taken, they must be in a panic and want to take back the stronghold. At that time, as long as we communicate with General Gao Shun in time, we will be able to attack Mayi!"

Wei Tao nodded, indeed.

"But now we don't have many troops in our hands. Not to mention how many people are defending the cottage, can we take it down? Even if we take it down, how can we defend it?"

It was at this time that Wang He spoke.

Although Wang He's energy is not weak, but after all, he is over fifty years old, and he has a bit more stability.

"I also asked about this. In fact, the 'Gust of Wind' horse bandits said that there were more than a thousand people, but there were more than 3000 people. Except for the thousand horse bandits, the rest should be old and weak women and children. .”

At this moment Zhang Liao said again, Wei Tao and Wang He were not surprised by this.

"According to my estimate, in addition to the 200 people on our way, General Gao Shun, even if it is an ambush, may have to bring 700 people. If this is the case, there will be only 200 people left in the camp. If we Pretending to be a horse bandit, attacking those who are unprepared, things can be done."

"But the strength in our hands is insufficient."

Although Wang He has a bit of a mentality of seeking stability and peace, he is still a man of courage, otherwise he would not be willing to come here with Wei Tao.

"Wen Yuan wants to subdue those horse bandits?"

Before Zhang Liao opened his mouth, Wei Tao already understood what he meant. In fact, the reason why he surrendered those horse bandits was that he didn't want to cause more damage, and Wei Tao might not have such an idea.

"Even if you don't ask those gangsters to be loyal immediately, it would be too much to let them attack and kill the cottage immediately."

"My lord doesn't know, those people are gangsters. To gangsters, they are very cruel gangsters to their own people. Whether they are captured or killed, everything that belongs to them will belong to the remaining people segmentation."

Zhang Liao shook his head slightly.

"So it's fine if they are not captured. Even if they are rescued now, the more than 100 people will not be able to keep their wealth, or even be killed directly. This is the 'rule' of the gangsters."

Wei Tao moved slightly, and immediately understood what Zhang Liao meant.

"It means that if it can be successful, and I am willing to forgive their crimes, and promise to divide it up, it must be able to let them do their best, right?"

"I believe they must be willing to attack the horse bandits with all their strength."

Zhang Liao straightened his expression and spoke seriously.

"At least I can tell that at least most people have this idea. As for the small number of people, it can be used as a warning and deterrence. The combination of grace and power should be able to control these gangsters."
