Three Kingdoms: The rebellious son of the Cao family married the queen at the beginning

Ma Chao led the army and withdrew to Heguan on the bank of the Yellow River in Longxi County, and asked the soldiers to stop and have a rest.

Fazheng hurriedly came to Ma Chao and said, "In the previous stop, our army suffered a total of nearly 2 casualties."

"what?"

Ma Chao was only concerned with withdrawing his troops before, and did not go to count the soldiers.

Unexpectedly, Ji Ling's 2 soldiers could kill [-] of him.

He and Fazheng had a total of only [-] troops, and they lost nearly [-]% in this one stop.

"When I was guarding the camp, I did a little statistics. There were more than 5000 casualties. The main reason was that when Ji Ling was besieged and killed, the opponent's soldiers fought to the death, and the loss was so great."

Ma Chao wiped off a cold sweat. When Ji Ling was besieged and killed, there were only two thousand people on the other side, and their fighting strength was almost ten times that of theirs.

And the opponent is infantry, they are cavalry.

If they encountered the Xuanjia Army, how much would they lose?
"How many people in Longxi County have not been transferred?"

"Nearly [-]% of them have been transferred, and there are still some who are unwilling to leave."

"Cao Shuo's army is coming soon, we must speed up, this Jiangguan may be able to resist for a while, but once the Wei army's siege equipment arrives, we must retreat to Hexi."

Fazheng asked his soldiers to build fortifications on the other side of the river while preparing boats for crossing the river.

"Leader General Qi, the commander of Shaoqiang, Ohe Shaoge, and Mo Zhesai and Fatong led fifty thousand Qiang people to come to support our army."

Ma Chao was overjoyed. With the help of the Qiang people, it would be much easier for them to defend Jincheng County.

"Let them come to see me in the big tent!"

"Reporting to Major General, Ehe Shaoge said that they are willing to present the head of General Cao Jun!"

Fazheng asked in horror, "Where are they?"

"Go to Di Dao to attack Wei Jun."

"No, send someone to call them back!"

Fazheng and Ma Chao looked depressed. These Qiang soldiers had no experience in fighting the Wei army, and they didn't know how terrifying the Wei army was.

If there is no protection, the only way to defeat the Wei army is to have ten times the strength of the enemy.

This group of Qiang people rushed up in one go, isn't it training for the opponent?
However, before Fazheng's military order was sent to the army of Ehe, they were already defeated.

After the fire at Di Dao was extinguished, Cao Shuo was furious when he heard that Ji Ling had been arrested, and only less than 1000 of his [-] soldiers remained.

He dispatched Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Gongsun Zan, and Gongsun Yue to lead an army of [-] Xuanjia troops to pursue Ma Chao.

When passing through Longsang City, they met the Qiang army outside the city. Without saying a word, the four of them led more than 1 cavalry each, and directly entered the Qiang lineup of Ehe Shaoge.

The two sides fought for less than half an hour, when the two generals of Ehe's fire were blocked, Fatong and Fatong were beheaded by Dianwei and Xu Chu.

Seeing that his side had suffered heavy losses, Ehe Shaoge led his army to retreat.

Under the leadership of four fierce generals, the Xuanjia Army only lost less than 1000 people, while the opponent lost nearly 3 people.

Dian Wei looked at the corpses left by the Qiang people and said, "Gather all the arrows, rest for an hour, and then follow me to pursue them."

Although the loss of the Xuanjia army was small, they were tired, and killing people was also very tiring.

And the weight of their equipment is not low, and the horses also need to rest.

Ehe Shaoge led more than 2 Qiang cavalry to Heguan. Ma Chao was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

After losing [-] soldiers, they still haven't repelled the opponent. What's even more exasperating is that two leaders were involved.

If this battle continues like this, they simply surrender.

Fazheng said: "Before the opponent's army arrives, let the soldiers build up the camp on the other side of the river as soon as possible, and prepare more bows and arrows to prevent the opponent from crossing the river."

When the sun was about to set, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Gongsun Zan, and Gongsun Yue led an army to Heguan. At this time, Ma Chao had already crossed the Yellow River.

Heguan was also burned by them, and the surrounding trees were cut down.

This surprised the four of them.

The four of them deliberated, retreated fifty miles, and stationed overnight in Baishi, Daxia, and Fanghan counties. The next day, the soldiers were sent to cut down trees and prepare to cross the river.

"Your Majesty, I found out the name of that female general."

Zhao Yu said excitedly, she spent three days, soft and hard, plus coercion and temptation, and finally completed the task.

"what is it call?"

"Wang Yi!"

"Ok?"

Cao Shuo looked surprised, she didn't look like a widow, didn't she have a family yet?
Are you so fierce without a family?He went to defend the city with a sword.

"Your Majesty, have you heard of her?"

"No, I'm just surprised that a girl will go to the battlefield."

Zhao Yu's face darkened, and he said, "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this? Do you think I'm burdensome? Tomorrow I will lead the army to charge into battle."

"Xiao Yu, I can't run out of generals now, so I don't need you to fight the enemy."

"I'm not young now, only two years younger than you, don't call me Xiaoyu anymore."

"What's that called?"

"heavy rain!"

"Do you still want to dig river channels?"

In the early morning of the next day, the two men who were still dredging the river suddenly received a report from the soldiers.

"Report to Your Majesty, it's snowing!"

Cao Shuo was startled, how could it be snowing here?
This is about half a month earlier than in previous years.

Cao Shuo had a bad feeling that if it snowed, his plan to catch Ma Teng would come to nothing.

I don't know where Lu Bu's army has fought, and there is no battle report yet.

Ma Teng has already retreated to Wuwei County, if he is trapped in Wuwei, he will be in trouble.

"Notify all armies that they must reach the bank of the Yellow River and build a camp on the east bank of the Yellow River before the road is blocked by heavy snow."

"promise!"

Cao Shuo got up in a hurry, and then summoned several of his advisers to discuss with them how to deal with the sudden weather.

Guo Jia suggested: "Your Majesty, our army's food and grass need to be sent to the troops in advance. The roads in Liangzhou are rough and difficult. Once there is a heavy snowstorm, the supply of food and grass may be delayed."

Xi Zhicai said: "There is still some grain in Hanzhong, which is enough for us to last for a month. We can mobilize grain and grass from Hanzhong first."

Cao Shuo nodded and said, "The grain and grass in Hanzhong will be transported to Longxi County and Hanyang County first to ensure the supply of grain and grass here. In addition, Chang'an in Yongzhou will transport the grain and grass for a year to Beidi County."

"promise!"

"Send out all the scouts and ask them to guard the surrounding forests, lest wild beasts come out of the mountains and hurt our soldiers, and the Qiang people are also very good at fighting in the mountains and forests to prevent them from sneaking attacks."

A heavy snow fell and fell for nearly half a month. Fortunately, the army's food and grass were in supply.

"vomit!"

Zhao Yu, who was eating with Cao Shuo, suddenly felt his stomach tumbling.

Cao Shuo's eyes darkened, which was a sign of happiness.

"Damn heavy snow..."
