The Three Kingdoms

"Your Majesty, the Flame Legion is expected to complete training by the end of March, prepare for battle in April, and be ready to attack in May!"

He Qi said: "Destroy Cao Wei's navy in Laizhou Bay first, and then take Qingzhou!"

"Zhou Tai?" Sun Quan turned his head and looked at Zhou Tai.

"Your Majesty, I have already discussed with Commander He. I will personally lead the No.20 Seventh Army from the South China Sea back to the East China Sea, and as the main force, capture Laizhou Bay!" Zhou Tai replied.

The Battle of Qingzhou will become a focus of this year's campaign.

So both He Qi and Zhou Tai are very concerned about this, and this battle will be the beginning of the decisive battle between the two countries.

"Ju Yi, Zhou Yu!"

Sun Quan looked at the two of them: "On behalf of the Military Aircraft Department, you personally preside over this battle, and you have strictly controlled the battle plans of the two armies, making this battle the opening of this year!"

"promise!"

The two nodded, looked at each other, and there was a sharp fighting intent in their expressions.To be continued.

[Text Chapter [-] Spring War I]

Yanmen Pass, the pass of the Great Wall, is steep and difficult to attack. Throughout the ages, it has been an important pass for the Central Plains to prevent grassland nomads from going south.

Today, a pass here has become an important strategic landmark for the confrontation between Wu and Wei.

On the city wall of the pass, one of Cao Wei's black dragon battle flags fluttered in the wind, hunting and hunting. On the other battle flags, there was a big horse character written on it, which caught people's eyes. occupy.

"Is there any news about the defensive deployment of Yinguan City?" In the camp of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, the newly appointed Great Wei Hussar General Ma Chao sat in the barracks, looking at Yanmen County Asked about the terrain sand table.

After taking down Yanmen Pass, the next one is naturally Yanmen County City, Yinguan City.

As long as they can successfully take down the city of Y Hall, Wei Jun will be able to completely drive Wu Jun out of the territory of Bingzhou and dominate Bingzhou.

"General Ma, according to the information detected by our ghost soldiers, it is the No. 17 Army of the Blood Wolf Army newly organized by Wu Jun that guards Yanmen County. He is a mighty general, but one of the three divisions under the No.17 Army has been disabled by us, and he actually only has two divisions in his hands!"

One of the captains of the ghost soldiers stood up and reported to Ma Chao in detail: "The second division under the No. And the land of Jiuyuan, defend the northern border."

"The land of Nine Plains in the Clouds is above the north?"

Hearing this, Ma Chao stared at the terrain on the sand table and suddenly became sharper: "That is to say, I will send troops to attack the city of Y Hall at this time, and their other division will not be able to return to rescue in a short time!"

"According to the information obtained by our ghost soldiers, even if they leave camp and go south now, it will take at least five days to return to Yanmen!"

"Okay, a certain family understands!"

Ma Chao pondered for a while, and waved to the generals: "Li Kan and Zhang Heng stay, you all go down first, although we won the battle of Yanmenguan, but the casualties are not small, you should do your best to appease morale !"

"promise!"

All the generals nodded and filed out, leaving the camp of the Chinese army.

The originally lively camp suddenly became quiet.In the quiet tent, Ma Chao's tall figure was still standing beside the sand table, staring at the core city of Yanmen County.

"I want to take this opportunity to take down the Y Hall City and expand the results of the battle!" After a long while, Ma Chao said word by word.

"General. We had nearly [-] casualties in the battle of Yanmen Pass. Now there are not many soldiers who have recovered their combat effectiveness. The strength of a division of the Wu army can range from tens of thousands to more than [-]. We were able to raid Yanmen Pass before. It was because of suddenness. They have no defenses, and the defenses already in the Y Pavilion City, if they attack by force, it will be difficult to fight!"

General Li Kan of Xiliang heard the words and hurriedly said a thousand reminders.

Since the Wei army in Liangzhou withdrew to Luoyang, the eight generals under Ma Chao's command also had their own assignments.Li Kan and Zhang Heng's return to Ma Chao's command can be regarded as Cao Cao's sweet date for Ma Chao.

"How much combat power do we have?"

With the two great Xiliang warriors under his command, Ma Chao's life will be easier, he looked at Zhang Heng and asked.

"We only have [-] Xiliang iron cavalry now, and they are all cavalry. If we attack the city by force, the casualties will inevitably be too large, and we may not be able to take it down." Zhang Heng replied.

"Haven't You Weiwei's troops marched north?"

Ma Chao frowned.

Guarding Bingzhou is Youwuwei, one of the twelve guards of the Wei army. This is a large corps of [-] elite Wei army.

"They're still in Taiyuan!" Zhang Heng said, "And so far they have no intention of moving north!"

"What does Cao Hong mean by this?"

Ma Chao's eyes suddenly turned cold: "The imperial decree ordered me to attack. Well, I will attack. Yanmen, which I finally took down now, is just in time to pursue the victory. But he chose to stand still!"

"General, I'm afraid this is not Cao Hong's intention, and he doesn't have the guts, but someone in the court wants to..."

Li Kanruo said pointedly.

"Li Kan, what you mean is that this is His Majesty's will!"

Ma Chao's face became more and more ugly.He understood what Li Kan pointed out, but he was a little unwilling to believe it: "Is your majesty trying to consume my Xiliang cavalry? It shouldn't be. Xiliang cavalry is now Cao Wei's soldiers and horses. He has no reason." Consume your own elite, unless he still doesn't trust me!"

"The Xiliang iron cavalry is extremely powerful in combat, and in Bingzhou this place is like a fish in water. It is comparable to the tiger and leopard cavalry, the most elite cavalry of the Cao army, but they are not subject to court restraints. They are only subject to military orders from you alone. General, do you think your majesty will?" Don't worry?"

Li Kan said quietly.

"Only when the Xiliang iron cavalry is disabled, the general will fight for Cao Wei with all his heart!"

Zhang Heng added a sentence.

"Crack!"

There was a chill in Ma Chao's eyes, and the breath in his body was circulating, and his expression was cold under the burning anger.

"To this day, it seems that they don't dare to completely trust a certain family after all!" Ma Chao gritted his teeth, and there was a gloom in his eyes: "Are they afraid of a certain family, or are they afraid of the power of the Ma family? "

"General, Sima Yi and Pang De took down General Ma Dai!" Li Kan said suddenly.

"A certain family knows this!"

Hearing this, Ma Chao's expression suddenly became a little lonely. He sighed, and there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes: "Earlier, Yunxi wrote a letter saying that she vowed to die and refused to join Wei, and even wanted to sever brother and sister relations with me. I know , she has already defected to Soochow, and there is a certain connection between Ma Dai and her. She intends to raise troops in Wudu, and she will be taken down sooner or later. Now they still care about my Ma Chao's face, but they just imprisoned him and did not kill him !"

"But?"

Zhang Heng gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, a little unwilling.

When did they Xiliang generals end up in a situation where their fate could only be controlled by them.

"Don't discuss this matter again!"

Ma Chao's eyes were deep, his hands were behind his back, and he said word by word: "We made a choice from the beginning, and there is no second chance. Either Cao Wei wins the world and I wait for success, or Dongwu punishes my nine Ma clans!"

"General, what should we do now!" Li Kan asked in a low voice, "Should we still attack Yanmen?"
