Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Chapter 288: Dark crossing Weishui

In the middle army tent, Zhang Jaw walked in with a heavy face.

When Liu Ye saw Zhang Jai's appearance, he couldn't help asking, "Jianyi, how many casualties did you have today?"

"Six hundred dead in battle and three hundred casualties. Counting the losses in the previous few days, our army has almost lost nearly three thousand elite soldiers!" Zhang jaw looked ugly, "Master, when will Ma Chao attack Tongguan? If this continues, the feint will soon become the main attack."

Hearing Zhang Jaw's complaint, Liu Ye couldn't help but smile, and calmly said: "Just stay safe and not irritable. Today's work is hard, let's go down to freshen up, rest early, and beware of enemy forces attacking the camp at night.

Zhang Jai said dullly: "Here." After that, he walked back with a gloomy face.

When Zhang Jai had just walked out of the camp, Liu Ye immediately said solemnly: "Wenhe, how many days has Mengqi left?"

Jia Xu heard Liu Ye's inquiry, and said in a hurry: "General, Lieutenant Ma led three thousand cavalry, received the general's order from Wuwei, and sent troops from Wuwei without stopping. It should be these few days."

Liu Ye nodded: "Well, continue to siege the city these few days, keep an eye on the movements of Tongguan, and pay such a large amount of damage, you must not give it for nothing.

Although 30,000 troops were brought with great fanfare this time, 20,000 of them were civilians, mainly to deter enemy troops in the direction of Tongguan. It is impossible for the civilians to attack the city. Not to mention the heavy losses, it is very likely that The enemy detected it.

In the past few days, nearly 3,000 soldiers were injured and killed, of which 1,700 were damaged. The rest were seriously injured and unable to fight. These people crawled out of the **** sea in the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the Battle of Liangzhou. Elite, Liu Ye was also quite heartbroken.

Jia Xu nodded, but didn't think much in his heart. Those who make big things don't stick to the trivial. If you attack Tongguan, you may not be successful at the expense of tens of thousands of soldiers. Now that he has implemented a strategy, the loss of only 1,700 people is already very good.

Niu Fu just started to face the elite Liangzhou soldiers, and he was quite at a loss for a while, but with the tall and deep city defense of Tongguan, after several waves of offensives of the Liangzhou soldiers were blocked in succession, Niu Fu was finally relieved, and even repelled the Zhangja organization. After a fierce attack, a banquet was held.

At this time, Weishui.

In the darkness, an iron rider quietly moved from the side of Weishui River, people strangled their mouths, and their horses bristled, so there was not much sound.

"Gaohui, you lead a small team to try the depth of the tributaries here, and prepare to cross the river."

A small group of cavalry responded. The speaker was a young general, dressed in silver armor, a lion head ghost helmet, and a Sirius gun in his hand. His face was slightly juvenile and heroic. It was among the Pingding Qiang people. The limelight Ma Chao.

After receiving Liu Ye’s secret order, in order to prevent Dong Jun’s spies and Xizuo from finding out the movement of soldiers and horses, Liu Ye did not mobilize soldiers and horses from Chang'an or Yongzhou, but went the other way. He secretly ordered Ma Chao to lead three thousand troops from Wuwei. , Bring enough dry food to travel long distances.

After a while, the little officer Gao Hui reported: "Captain Ma, the water here is shallow, suitable for our army to cross the river."

Ma Chao nodded, his gestures and feet exuded a steadiness that didn't match his age.

"The whole army crosses the river and kills Ben Tongguan!"

At this time, it was the shallow water period. The Weishui as a big river in Guanzhong also had a small flow, and Ma Chao deliberately selected an invisible tributary of the Weishui. Therefore, it was easy for three thousand horses to ride through the Weishui.

The horse slammed into the water, struggling with four hooves, and carrying the owner on his back to the opposite bank. After a short while, the first batch of Liangzhou cavalry finally got on the opposite shore, and the horse leaped four hooves and flew out. The water droplets on his body were refreshed.

In less than two quarters of an hour, Ma Chao couldn't help but smile.

"Enter!"

Three thousand cavalry responded, followed behind Ma Chao, merged themselves into this torrent, became a member of this invincible group, rushing forward.

The night is the best amulet for the cavalry. Under the full rush, the tall city wall of Tongguan was quickly exposed to Ma Chao.

Reaching out his hand and gently pulling down the iron cover of the lion head ghost face helmet, only a pair of cold eyes were revealed. Ma Chao raised the Sirius gun in his hand high and pointed at Tongguan.

"Break through Tongguan and catch Niu Fu alive!"

Three thousand iron horses shouted in unison.

"Break through Tongguan and catch Niu Fu alive!"

The sound of shouting and killing shocked the earth and shook the fields. The three thousand horses rolled forward like a torrent of steel. The heavy horseshoes hit the ground hard, as if a warhammer hit the ground. shine.

Ma Chao rushed to the city of Tongguan first, and the left and right shots were as fast as lightning, and he killed two soldiers, Sergeant Dong Zhuo, and leaped into Tongguan.

Three thousand cavalry rushed into Tongguan in a rush, and the patrol Sergeant Dong Zhuo was shocked when he saw it.

"The enemy has entered Tongguan, everyone, run away."

"Oh my god, how did they get in? It's the heavenly soldiers, it's the heavenly soldiers."

Sergeant Dong Zhuo in Tongguan was in chaos. The Liangzhou cavalry was condensed into a single charge. Hundreds of people were killed and injured. However, there were also some low-level officers and warriors in the army. He shouted and gathered to himself.

"Liangzhou soldiers go to death!"

A member of Dong Jun, who has a big waist and a round waist, opened his eyes wide, and raised his saber with both arms, as soon as he saw a Liangzhou cavalry company and his horse split in half.

when!

The lance of the Sirius spear came suddenly, parrying the knife, and then, like an antelope hanging its horns, it suddenly pierced out from a weird angle. That Dong Jun was shocked, covered his neck, and slowly fell, the blood fell from Overflow in five fingers.

Ma Chao sneered: "Huh, it's vulnerable!"

At this time, soldiers ran to the Niufu Hall.

"Niu Zhonglang! It's not good, the enemy has entered Tongguan!"

A blood-stained Dong Zhuojun knelt in the hall, full of panic.

Niu Fu was furious, and stepped forward and grabbed his collar: "What did you say? Liangzhou soldiers are clearly outside the pass, how could they have entered Tongguan? Is it possible that the enemy army has grown wings and flew over Tongguan?"

"Little and little people don't know, but there are indeed many Xiliang cavalry in the city, and everyone is fighting desperately with the enemy."

Liu Zhi got up and said, "It shouldn't be too late. Someone first mobilizes soldiers and horses to attack the enemy in the city. Please come as soon as possible."

Niu Fu nodded and said yes, Liu Zhi immediately stood up and hurried forward to mobilize troops.

"Damn, if you lose Tongguan, this head can't be kept." Niu Fu didn't dare to think too much, hurriedly ordered the soldiers to gather, and then drove out with his spear.
