Lu Bu’s Life Simulator
Vol 3 Chapter 254: tragic
Ma Chao's life was actually very smooth. His only setback was that he faced people like Lu Bu, but Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and Dian Wei were not enemies.
From the very beginning, Lu Bu was more optimistic about Ma Chao, so he didn't think about killing him. Although he was hostile, as an opponent, Ma Chao at that time was not qualified.
Before that, he fought with the Qiang people and the Hu people, all of which were very popular, but after returning to Lu Bu, he followed Nanyang, and then fought with the Jingzhou army, although he was also used in the water battle. It was a loss, but in general, the enemies Ma Chao encountered were not as good as him.
It cannot be said that he is weak. After arriving in Nanyang, Ma Chao has learned a lot from the trapping camp. Now, whether he is arranging troops or facing the enemy in a decisive battle, he has done a good job.
But it is precisely because of this that Ma Chao has never encountered real adversity.
What is adversity?
It is when you feel that everything is not going well, and when everything goes against your expectations, it is adversity, and the attitude of facing adversity is the time to determine a person's ultimate achievement.
What Ma Chao is facing now can be regarded as adversity. Cao Cao is different from any opponent he has encountered in the past. Even if he has been beaten by Ma Chao three times in a row, he has no temper, but Cao Cao is a person who is very good at facing adversity. He can adjust quickly. Your own state of mind is not controlled by your emotions.
In the case of losing the first battle, he was able to quickly determine where Ma Chao's weakness was and deal with it. Even if he hid Cao's possessions in Tibet not long ago, Ma Chao still felt very uncomfortable. The depression in his heart made him a little at a loss.
It is not difficult to fight against the wind within the scope of his ability, but when he encounters a problem beyond his ability, Ma Chao is a little panicked now.
The life and death of the soldiers of the three armies lay on him, and the safety of Nanyang lay on him. He must make a correct judgment when Cao Cao has already seized the opportunity to save Duyang and even Nanyang.
Moreover, I had previously guessed that there would be ambushes on the way. Although the battle of Cao Ying was considered a success, Ma Chao was heartbroken by the casualties of the camp, and he was also a little confused. He didn’t know what to do next to resolve the situation. This is the Good times and bad times are bad, and there will be casualties in good times, but it won't mess up your hands and feet, and in times of adversity there will be changes.
It was still in the initial stage, Ma Chao felt that it was difficult to make a choice, at least he could judge the situation, and there was no need to continue defending the county at this moment. The best time to aid Duyang.
As for the ambush, although Ma Chao didn't know what to do at the moment, he obviously didn't care too much about the ambush. After all, Cao Jun was like that, so when the tiger and leopard cavalry suddenly rushed out and directly disrupted the three armies, Ma Chao's reaction was Half a beat.
After all, in the impression, Cao Jun's concept of being vulnerable has taken root in his heart, but he did not expect Cao Jun to have such an elite division.
Tiger and Leopard Cavalry's road to becoming an army is actually similar to that of the trap camp.
Not to mention, the two armors on the tiger and leopard cavalry are equally astonishing in defense. Although it may not be as good as the rhino leather armor, it is not easy for ordinary swords and spears to break the defense.
There is no continuous crossbow, but the horse-cutting sword combined with the impact of the warhorse is equally astonishing.
Horses are also equipped with horse armor, which is rare in today's world. Even in Lu Bu's army, only the generals' horses can wear armor. Such a cavalry, the power of the charge alone is enough to break through most formations.
Ma Chao's contempt for Cao Jun's ambush cost him a great price, and the retreating army was almost cut in half.
"Fall into the camp, form a formation to meet the enemy!" Ma Chao rode on horseback, and in the darkness, he only vaguely saw a cavalry surging past, cutting the army into two sections, but the specific situation was not clear.
The regular army was already in chaos, and he couldn't deal with it at once. Ma Chao could only assemble the trap camp that was easiest to assemble.
This decision is undoubtedly correct. At this time, it is really difficult to preserve everything.
When the fallen camp quickly formed, but new problems emerged.
The battlefield is not forbidden. The trapped camp can react quickly with its super military discipline, but ordinary troops do not have this ability. When they see the gathering here, they will instinctively rush here, and Cao Jun seems to have seen the opportunity. , I wanted to use these ordinary sergeants to break the trapped camp, so I did not rush to attack the trapped camp immediately, but drove the defeated army to attack the enemy.
Ma Chao naturally also saw this scene, and shouted sharply: "The rest of the soldiers, quickly retreat to the two wings to regroup!"
But at this time, the army was already in chaos, and the night was dark and windy. Even if these soldiers heard the order, under the emotion of fear, they would instinctively run here first.
Seeing his own soldiers rushing towards this side, if you let the other side rush over like this, you will be unlucky if you fall into the camp.
Ma Chao gritted his teeth and shouted: "Three arrows in a row!"
The trapped camp didn't answer, but in the sound of Ji Kuo's tugging, the Nanyang Army gathered here fell in pieces. The **** aura and the death of Paoze finally made these defeated troops regain some sense of reason. Of course, it really drove them. Doing what Ma Chao said was still a threat of death.
Cao Chun saw that the enemy army had cleared the siege, but he didn't care. After picking a direction, he suddenly waved his troops and rushed out. The goal was to point directly at this untroubled army. He naturally recognized it when he was in the camp. It was this army that killed Cao Cao by cutting off his beard and discarding his robes, and showed off his might in Yexian city, but unfortunately Cao Cao didn't let the tiger and leopard ride, which made Cao Chun a little bit worried.
Today, everyone can finally have a real contest.
rumbling~
In the thunderous sound of horses' hoofs, the earth seemed to be unable to withstand the power of the galloping horses, and trembled uncontrollably. Ma Chao sat on the horse's back, and vaguely, he could see the enemy cavalry rushing towards this side under the moonlight. , This time, he was facing the tiger and leopard riding, and the sense of oppression that came upon him reminded Ma Chao of the first time he faced the trapped camp.
This is obviously an elite, and the number is more than the trap camp.
But... if you just want to defeat yourself like this, then you will be too underestimated to fall into the camp.
"Crossbow arrows shoot in the air!" In the darkness, Ma Chao couldn't judge the distance between the two sides, so he could only rely on feeling.
Following his order, the sound of the crossbow machine beating can be heard incessantly, the crossbow arrows burst out of the air, and the screams of the horses in front and the screams of the soldiers are incessant.
Ma Chao estimated that the arrows in the crossbow box shot into the air, and shouted: "Reject the horse formation!"
With a loud shout, the trapped camp quickly put the spear in front of them.
"Boom~"
"Pfft~"
"Bang~"
The sound of horse hooves came from far to near, and slammed into the protruding spear. The spear pierced the war horse, and some pierced it together with the tiger and leopard cavalry soldiers on the horse's back, but the huge impact However, the force knocked many soldiers into the camp.
The rhinoceros leather armor obviously couldn't defend against this kind of heavy blow. Hearing the dull muffled sound, Ma Chao's heart was bleeding, but he also knew that he couldn't mess up at this moment. Scalp killed.
Tiger and Leopard Riding's momentum was finally blocked by the trapped camp, and no one knows how many people died.
However, the tiger and leopard riders that stopped were obviously not as brave as they were in the camp, and gradually fell into a disadvantage, and the casualties continued to increase.
Cao Chun instinctively wanted to withdraw and then reorganize the offensive, but where would Ma Chao give him this opportunity, he shouted: "Change the crossbow box and shoot!"
The replacement of the crossbow box is not difficult, but the retreat of the tiger and the leopard has left the trapping camp behind.
In an instant, a large number of crossbow arrows flew out, and the tiger and leopard cavalry was killed in a rout, and quickly fled away. In the dark, Ma Chao did not dare to chase, but just let the trapped camp continue to line up on alert, and he quickly drove the horses. When he arrived at the chaotic army, which had been gradually reorganized, he found the lieutenant, and shouted sharply, "Let all the soldiers be stationed on the spot until dawn!"
At this time, it is not far from the dawn, no matter how urgent it is, it cannot be rushed blindly, and it is very likely that it will be ambushed again.
"Here!" The lieutenant agreed, not daring to neglect.
After Ma Chao arranged the chaos, he came back again. The sky had already lit up with a hint of fish belly white, and his sight could gradually see the surroundings.
The corpses of war horses and Cao Jun were everywhere, but there were also many corpses of his own soldiers. What worried Ma Chao was the corpses of the trap camp. The rhinoceros leather armor was easy to recognize. This time, the casualties of the trap camp were not small.
Ma Chao asked people to bring the bodies of the soldiers who were trapped in the camp with him. He didn't want these soldiers to be exposed to the wilderness.
"General, you can't bring it. I'm waiting for the rescue now. I didn't even bring the food and grass, but I brought these corpses. How can I rescue them quickly?" The lieutenant persuaded.
"But..." Ma Chao looked at the corpses who had been with each other day and night, and his heart felt uncomfortably tight.
"Someone~www.readwn.com~ Remove the armor and weapons of these soldiers!" The lieutenant shouted.
"..." Ma Chao frowned and looked at the lieutenant, but in the end he was speechless. He knew it was right, but he couldn't accept it emotionally.
"The general is the commander-in-chief of the first army, and he is in the safety of Nanyang, so don't act arrogantly!" The lieutenant said solemnly.
Ma Chao finally nodded silently.
Only in this battle, more than 300 soldiers were killed in the camp, but when the 9,000 soldiers brought out from the county were assembled again, there were only more than 6,000 left, and the corpses of tigers and leopards found on the battlefield were only more than 800 people. .
To be able to compete with the trap camp, the tiger and leopard riding is enough to be proud, but in Ma Chao's view, it is still a disadvantage. If it is daytime, if the terrain is changed, the tiger and leopard riding may not be able to get close to them.
It's a pity that things in this world are not if, and if you change the battlefield, Tiger and Leopard Riders may not really rush into the camp. Many things happen and they happen.
However, what made Ma Chao even more uncomfortable was the news brought by the defeated soldiers who escaped from Duyang...
