The last three kingdoms

Chapter 712
Ma Gelong sent envoys to seek peace with Peng Hu, expressing his willingness to lead his troops to surrender to Lu Shuihu.

In this regard, among the senior officials inside Lu Shuihu, two different opinions have formed. One is to consider conditionally accepting the surrender of Malan Qiang and merging the forces of Malan Qiang into Lu Shui Hu; On the contrary, if you think that Ma Gelong cannot be trusted, and now he is in poverty, he will be a disaster in the future, so it is better to kill him now to avoid future troubles.

Moreover, the factions that advocate the refusal to surrender account for the vast majority. They are all generals who have just experienced a bloody battle with the Malan Qiang people. They have great hatred for the Malan Qiang people, and they are very surprised by Ma Gelong's sudden surrender. , and would not think that Ma Gelong had any sincerity, and returning to Lu Shuihu was just a stopgap measure. After the Shu army retreated in the future, it would be difficult to guarantee that Ma Gelong would not turn against the water again.

Lu Shui Hu Wang Peng Hu naturally saw farther than these generals under his command. The Shu army ran a long distance and destroyed the old nest of the Malan and Qiang people in one fell swoop. It is obvious that the Han people are serious this time. The method was nothing more than sending troops out to intimidate them, and they never went deep into the Hudi, and the confrontation between the two sides was limited to some small frictions.

Combined with the fact that the Shu army had wiped out the Xiongnu Hao San's tribe in Suyi, Peng Hu believed that Liu Yin's attitude towards the rebellion of the Huns was zero tolerance this time, and he used heavy punches to strike out with only one purpose, to kill the rebellious tribes of the Huns. Uprooted and wiped out.

Thinking of this episode, Peng Hu couldn't help feeling a little apprehensive. He had heard that Liu Yin was a ruthless character, capable of running thousands of miles, and captured Guanlong and Yongliang from the mighty Cao Wei.It stands to reason that such a person should not be provoked, but Peng Hu was quite moved when he saw the turmoil of the Zhuhu uprising, so he was moved to be self-reliant. Looking at it now, maybe this was a mistake , and this mistake is likely to bring Lu Shuihu the difficulty of exterminating the genocide.

Liu Yin killed Hao San and took away Ma Lanqiang's lair, so who will be his next target?
The answer seems obvious. After Liu Yin's army entered Xinping, there was no force that could stop him from entering Anding County.Peng Hu doesn't care about Magron's life or death. After all, the two sides have had deep grievances for so many years. This time Magron took the initiative to attack Xichuan. Thousands of paragraphs to relieve the hatred in my heart.

If Peng Hu refuses to accept Magron's attachment now, Magron will undoubtedly die, but after Magron's defeat, isn't his fate exactly what Peng Hu will follow?

To fight against Liu Yin, Peng Hu must mobilize all the forces he can mobilize, so Ma Gelong is undoubtedly a force that can be borrowed, and Peng Hu has no reason not to extend a helping hand to Ma Gelong.

There is a Chinese idiom that is well used, that is, "the lips are dead and the teeth are cold". Ma Gelong is the lips, and Peng Hu is the teeth. If the lips are gone, only the teeth are left, but they can't stop the cold wind.

So Peng Hu thought again and again, and decided to reject all opinions and accept Ma Gelong's attachment, and the two sides joined hands to fight against Liu Yin.

Bleak ┄┄┄┄┄┄
On the third day after Fu set fire to Mount Malan, Liu Yin also led the main force of the army to Qi County, and solved the rebellion in Xinping County so smoothly, which was somewhat beyond Liu Yin's expectations. Obviously, this was Malan Qiang The result of the tie-up with Lu Shuihu.

However, the news from Anding County made Liu Yin a little disappointed. Ma Lanqiang and Lu Shuihu did not continue to fight, but quickly made peace. Obviously, the strong attack of the Shu army made them aware of the crisis. With the coming of the enemy, let us temporarily put aside our previous suspicions and fight against the enemy together.

Although there were some surprises, this did not stop Liu Yin's progress in the slightest. After staying in Qi County for a while, Liu Yin led his army to march westward along the Jinghe River Valley, pointing directly at Linjing, the prefecture of Anding County.

Peng Hu couldn't attack Linjing, and now Liu Yin's reinforcements came on a large scale. As a last resort, he gave up his plan to besiege Linjing, retreated to Jingyang, relied on Lu Shuihu's old territory, and prepared to fight a protracted war with the Shu army.

Of course, the Shu army will not stop fighting just because they regained Linjing. Although it has already entered the winter and the sky is freezing, in order to completely solve the hidden dangers in the northwest, Liu Yin decided to overcome the difficulties. A heavy blow with Malanqiang solved the Northwest frontier problem once and for all.

Luo Xian's Right Army Corps brought the three cavalry troops of Qinglong, Baihu and Xuanwu in this western expedition. The two armies of Suzaku and Qilin stayed in Feng Yi's garrison. Taking Jingyang head-on, he led the two armies of the Central Army, the Tiger Riding and the Tiger Stepping, to detour from the flanks, and started the final decisive battle with Peng Hu.

In order to defend Jingyang, Peng Hu also mobilized almost all of Lu Shuihu's troops, and the cavalry of the Shu army marched in huge numbers, fighting with Lu Shuihu's army in the Jingyang River Valley.

This is a big contest between the cavalry of both sides. Although the Shu army has an advantage in equipment, Lu Shuihu relied on the large number of people, and the two sides were involved in a large-scale melee. There were casualties, and the outcome was hard to tell for a while.

At this time, Fu Zhu and Gao Yuan led the Tiger Cavalry Army and Tiger Infantry Army to join the battle group from the left and right flanks, and the situation on the battlefield changed suddenly.

The tiger cavalry army was like a sharp knife, piercing the vital points of Lu Shuihu's army, and the sharp attack was quickly broken through the defense line of Lushuihu's army, killing Lu Shuihu's army, throwing away their helmets and armor, and they were in a panic.

But the tiger infantry army is like a blunt knife. Although it is not as sharp as the tiger cavalry army, the oppressive style of play with its neat formation and step by step has seriously impacted the formation of Lu Shuihu people.

Under the strong impact of the internal and external cooperation of the Shu army, the formation of the Lushui Hu people was in chaos, and they gradually became exhausted.

At this time, Ma Gelong led the Malan Qiang people to kill them, and launched an anti-siege operation against the Shu army.The joining of the Malan Qiang people greatly reduced the pressure on the Lushui Hu people, and they began to launch a frenzied counterattack.

The advantage of the Shu army lies in the overall strength, excellent equipment, and neat formation, while the advantages of the Lushui Hu people and the Malan Qiang people lie in their bravery and fruitfulness, and their individual combat capabilities. The battle has been fiercely fought from early morning to dusk, the killing is very dark, but it is difficult to distinguish the winner.

Seeing that it was getting late, Liu Yin had no choice but to order Mingjin to withdraw his troops. Seeing this, Peng Hu also ordered his troops to retreat.
