I use martial arts to train soldiers in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 174
Jia Xu agreed with Xu Huang's strategy, then turned to Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun and said, "General Xu Huang's method! Although the casualties are the most, it is the fastest and most effective. General Zhao Yun's method is the most feasible. General Zhang Liao's method , although protracted, but the most stable."

Jia Xu comforted Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun a little, and then said: "My lord asked us to come and recover Xiliang, and we originally planned to make a quick decision to facilitate our army's next plan. Therefore, we have to do it as quickly as possible." Take down the entire Xiliang at a high speed. Tomorrow, I will fight against Ma Teng and Han Sui. After three days, I will fight to the death. All the generals go down and get ready!"

"like!"

The next day, Zhao Yun sent someone to send a letter of decisive battle to Ma Teng and Han Sui in the city, agreeing that after three days, the armies of both sides will fight to the death.

Ma Chao and Ma Yunlu, who were just about to go out of the city to find Zhao Yun to "single out", were called back by Ma Teng.

In the meeting hall, Ma Teng sat on it thinking about something.

"Father, why did you ask me and my brother to come back?" Ma Yunlu said coquettishly to Ma Teng above.

Ma Teng, who was in deep thought, was awakened, then looked at Ma Yunlu, and said with a smile: "It's Yunlu! You don't want to go out of the city these two days. Zhao Yun, who was opposite, just sent a letter of war, and agreed that after three days , The general will fight to the death. I have just sent someone to inform Han Wenyue to come to discuss countermeasures, and you will join in later."

"Ah! A fight to the death?" Ma Yunlu yelled in horror.

"Yes! The two armies set up formations and fought each other until one side lost." Ma Teng said quickly, not noticing his daughter's strangeness at all.

Even Ma Chao, who was on the side, noticed the worry in his sister's words, and knew what he was worried about.He reached out and patted his sister's shoulder lightly, gave him a firm look, and nodded.

Ma Chao turned to Ma Teng above, and said, "My lord, why did the Bingzhou Army ask us to fight to the death? Is there any secret behind this?"

"It's not clear yet, let's talk about it when the Hanwen appointment arrives! Don't run around, and join us later."

An hour later, Han Sui brought his son-in-law, Yan Xing, and his eight generals to Ma Teng's meeting hall.

Ma Teng stepped forward enthusiastically, and excitedly said to Han Sui, "Brother, you're here. I haven't seen you for a long time, and my brother is still full of energy as always."

"Haha, the second brother is the same. I don't know that the second brother hastily called me here. I wonder if there is any important matter to discuss?" Han Sui said politely to Ma Teng first, and then got straight to the point.

"Brother, please take your seat first, and I will tell you in detail." Ma Teng first invited Han Sui to the main seat, and then said:
"Brother like this, the Bingzhou army on the opposite side sent a battle post, agreeing that after three days, the two armies will form a battle to the death. I wonder what your brother thinks about this?"

"Oh, why did the Bingzhou army on the opposite side suddenly send us a battle post, wanting to fight to the death with us? Didn't they fight against Ma Chao and Yun Lu every day before? Could it be because the reinforcements arrived?" Han Sui pointed at Ma Teng asked like a machine gun.

Ma Teng avoided the previous two questions, and replied to Han Sui: "The Bingzhou army on the opposite side indeed came to reinforce them two days ago, with about 12 to [-] troops. Including Zhao Yun's troops, Bingzhou has assembled a total of about [-] troops. There are about [-] horses. Among them, there are only [-] cavalry and [-] infantry."

"Well! The strength of the Bingzhou army is comparable to ours. It is simply wishful thinking to attack the city and regain Xiliang. So they can only make a bad move and fight to the death with my army. As long as we win in the decisive battle, we can quickly Take back Xiliang." Han Sui analyzed the situation on both sides.

"What do you mean, big brother, not to fight them?" Ma Teng asked Han Sui.

"No! Promise them a decisive battle. If you don't agree to them, I don't think the Bingzhou Army will come and attack our city. Our long-term confrontation will consume a lot of food and grass for both sides. But we expand the territory too fast, and the reserves of food and grass are insufficient. , the longer it drags on, the worse it will be for us.”

"Brother, what do you think we have a chance of winning in a decisive battle with the Bingzhou Army?" Ma Teng asked again.

"Fifty percent!" Han Sui spit out two words slowly.

"Is there a [-]% chance of winning? You can give it a go, success or failure depends on it." Ma Teng murmured.

"Yes! Success or failure depends on one action." Han Sui said with emphasis.

"That's good, brother! I'll write back to the Bingzhou Army outside the city, promising them a decisive battle in three days' time."

"Okay! Then we will go down for three days and have a good rest, but we must also be prepared for the Bingzhou Army to turn back and attack the city suddenly."

At the same time, in the Bingzhou army camp outside the city, Jia Xu was still asking the generals: "Generals, let's fight against Ma Teng and Han Sui's Xiliang Army. There is an [-]% chance of winning. As a general, we must strictly follow the plan when the time comes, and the success or failure of regaining Xiliang is all in one fell swoop."

Time passed quickly, and three days later came in a blink of an eye.

Outside Yunwu City, more than [-] troops gathered here.The figures are full of figures and the flags are flying.

The men and horses on both sides spread out, with cavalry in the middle.Most of the left and right wings are infantry, and there are only more than [-] cavalry.

Obviously, both sides are determined to break through the enemy from the front.

The formation of the Bingzhou Army is that Cheng Lian leads [-] infantry on the left.On the right wing, Fan Chou led [-] infantry and [-] cavalry.

As for the Chinese army, Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, and Xu Huang commanded [-] cavalry at the same time, Hua Xiong and Hao Meng commanded [-] infantry, and [-] cavalry were behind.

As the horns of both sides sounded, the drummers behind the Chinese army beat the drums rhythmically.

The attack drum sounded, and the soldiers on both sides suddenly shouted "Kill!" They rushed to the opposite side at the same time.

With Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, and Zhao Yun as arrows, the Bingzhou army led the tiger and leopard cavalry to rush towards the opposite side in a conical formation.

However, the Xiliang army charged towards the Bingzhou army with Pang De and another general, the arrow, without showing any weakness.

Although the two armies were separated by thousands of steps, in just a short breath of more than ten breaths, the troops of the two sides were already clearly visible.

"Spear throw!"

Xu Huang simply shouted, and the more than twenty personal guards around him also shouted at the same time after hearing the commander's order:
"Throw the spear! Throw the spear! Throw the spear!"

More than a dozen personal guards shouted at the same time, and after the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry behind them heard it, they all pulled out the three short spears on their backs and quickly threw them into the sky.

Seeing the short spears thrown from the sky, Pang De and another Xiliang general shrank their eyes sharply. They concentrated on watching the short spears falling from the sky, and then with superb martial arts, they pulled out one by one on the side.

However, the Xiliang cavalry who charged behind them were not so lucky.The short spears thrown by the Bingzhou army were all dead.This is different from the rain of arrows, the short spears thrown here have extremely strong penetrating power.Many of them were penetrated by both men and horses at the same time, and there was also a short spear that penetrated 2 to 3 Xiliang cavalry at the same time.

Good guy, before they even made contact, the Xiliang cavalry were thrown spears by the Bingzhou army, killing them and turning them on their backs.

After throwing the spears, the Xiliang soldiers ushered in the tiger and leopard cavalry charge.

The Xiliang army is all frontier soldiers who have fought against foreign races all year round. Most of them are light cavalry. Where have they fought against such well-equipped heavy cavalry?

Xu Huang aimed at the general opposite, and hit Pang De with a heavy ax head-on.Pang De also slashed at Xu Huang's face with a heavy knife.The weapons of the two met in the air with a loud bang.

However, Pang De still underestimated Xu Huang's strength. Xu Huang's ax hit his tiger's mouth numb, and he also leaned back slightly on the horse's back.The two staggered past, and both rushed towards the opponent's cavalry camp.

Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun also launched an attack on another general from Xiliang on the opposite side at the same time.The two teamed up to hope that they could kill a general on the opposite side in the first round, thus damaging the morale of the enemy army.

However, this general from Xiliang was not of the same generation.In the combination of Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun, they successfully escaped.Although he was accidentally stabbed in the waist by Zhao Yun and suffered a slight injury, it did not affect his combat effectiveness at all.

After the leading generals of the two armies fought, they all rushed to the opposing cavalry camp at the same time.After a while, the cavalry from both sides charged past.

The [-] cavalry of the Xiliang Army charged together, and lost tens of thousands of people in just one short confrontation.Pang De, the leader, and the other general from Xiliang both had wounds of various sizes on their bodies.

As for the Bingzhou Army, although tiger and leopard cavalry led the battle, they still lost more than 3000 cavalry.The battle loss ratio was 3 to 1, and the state army won a small victory.
