Chapter 1277

On the bank of the Yangtze River more than ten miles north of Stone Mountain, more than 1,000 cavalry officers and soldiers are repairing, the armor on Ma Ke's body is scattered and blood-stained robes, but there is still a smug sneer on his face, Tu Yuan looked at his long knife with a curled blade: "The little overseer's Pu knife is extremely sharp, I have to get it for him sooner or later!" Jia Waixiong smiled bitterly and exhaled: "The green sparrow on his waist is sharper and sharpens iron like clay" Tu Yuan smiled: "Don't cheat, it's a royal treasure knife, and if you steal it, you will kill your head."

"Haha, you're planning to steal the little overseer's knife!" Jia Waixiong's words caused everyone to laugh, and Lao Jiu next to him had a grass in his mouth, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "Brothers can still laugh after eating such a big deflated, I admire it!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone quieted down, Tu Yuan and Jia Waixiong looked slightly embarrassed, and they coughed lightly and wanted to say something, but they didn't hold back and didn't say anything.

The battle just now was a tough battle for them!

Tu Yuan they because of the terrain is not familiar with the terrain too light the enemy rushed towards the stone bandit army camp, but found that the stone everywhere is very unfavorable to horse warfare, want to withdraw but too late, Yuan Sanzhong dispatched foot soldiers to trap it, and the horse who is still fighting on the periphery can not see death without saving, leading the troops to frantically solve the siege but was bitten by Wang Yien, although the border army is good at fighting, but they are all exhausted, and the quick battle can still be easy, once it falls into the glue war, it will lack stamina, and the best horse war is trapped by the terrain, and it will immediately fall into danger.

Seeing that something was wrong, Ma Ke ordered a quick retreat, but it was not so easy to rush out surrounded by nearly 10,000 thieves.

But it's not that hard!

After all, the 3rd Battalion of Dongchang and the border army of Ma Ke are not only good at horse warfare, they are still pawns when they get off the horse, and they still kill you ghosts and wolves...... It's just that without the advantage of horse warfare, they injured the enemy by 1,000 and suffered 800 self-losses! By the time they broke out of the encirclement, they had lost five or six hundred men! The rest are even more injured!

"Victory or defeat is a difficult thing for soldiers, not to mention that we are not defeated this time, and this few have killed more than 2,000 enemies!" Ma Ke got up and swept everyone, with a faint sneer on his face: "The most important thing is that we have not retreated to the Shun'an River now, and we can open the way for reinforcements in the rear at any time, and the thief army will not dare to chase and can't catch up!" And we can sneak attack them at any time, and even go to Tongling City at any time, at least tonight, the thief army can't help us."

Hearing him say this, everyone's depressed mood disappeared a little, and they all echoed, but no, the thief army was also frightened by our killing, not to mention chasing us, this will still be worried about preventing us from sneak attack.

"But what if the thieves really chase after them?" Lao Jiu always likes to spoil the fun, but Ma Ke pouted when he heard it: "Do you dare to chase after it?" Lao Jiu snorted and stopped talking, and Ma Ke said: "Even if he chases, let's do it with him again, if you don't want to do it, just walk back and forth along the Yangtze River, riding a horse is easier than walking!" The crowd laughed again.

Ma Ke then ordered all the troops to repair on the spot, but not to light fires, and to go around the Yangtze River to the northeast when it was almost dawn tomorrow, so as not to be blocked by the bandit army Shun'an River and block their back road, and they could also be prepared to receive reinforcements from the rear.

In the middle of the night, in the camp of the thief army in the east of Tongling City, Bai Wang looked at the flickering candlelight with a gloomy face in the handsome tent, and listened to Wang Yien explain the battle just now: "The officers and soldiers are all cavalry, and they suddenly killed me and Yuan Laosan to lure them into the stone mountain to make them lose their advantage in horse warfare...... After nearly half an hour of fighting, the officers and men suffered heavy losses and broke through the siege in embarrassment......"

Wang Yien is not only thirsty for killing but also very eloquent, sometimes downplaying his own injuries, and sometimes showing how brave and witty he is without a trace...... All in all, he had just won a battle and routed the reinforcements of the officers and soldiers!

But Bai Wang didn't think so, why did the officers and soldiers take the initiative to attack when they knew that they did not have any advantage in their troops and were tired? Are you stupid? And no matter how awesome Wang Yien said about himself, nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses couldn't keep more than 1,000 officers and soldiers...... The gap in combat power is not half a star, and it is also under the premise that the opponent has just finished a battle.

How can the gap in combat power be so big? Bai Wang actually had a trace of horror in his heart, in the past, he beat Zuo Liangyu to be successful, and the invincibility made him have a kind of officers and soldiers who were just so fluttering, when he was surprised to hear that Li Zicheng was defeated in the north, he didn't quite understand at the time, how powerful the little eunuch could be, how awesome the soldiers and horses under his command could be, and now he was just in contact, and his nose and face were swollen like a rock, and after that, he ......

If they are all such good soldiers, they are afraid of themselves...... Bai Wang didn't dare to think about it, shook his head vigorously, and asked Wang Yien: "Where have the officers and soldiers retreated?" ”

Wang Yien shook his head and didn't know: "When the officers and soldiers retreated, it was already dark on the banks of the Zhengbei River, but the spies under his subordinates found their small groups of men and horses in the west and east, and they didn't light fires and smeared and ran around, and they couldn't determine where their main force was."

"Don't be careless" Bai Wang frowned and walked to the door of the tent and looked up at the dark night sky: "It escaped into the night, so in addition to not wanting to be chased by you, the Bu Suspicious Array can make a surprise attack on us at any time?" ”

"So the big marshal means......" Wang Yien got up and followed Bai Wang to the outside: "Gather all the troops to pull the net to hunt and drive it across the Shun'an River, and then establish a defensive line......"

"No!" Bai Wang interrupted him: "Let's attack the city!" ”

What? Wang Yien was stunned for a moment!

"If it is not bad, the reason why the more than 1,000 officers and soldiers took the initiative to attack despite the fatigue of the soldiers must be to give reinforcements to the rear to seize the defense line of the Shun'an River, and they are worried that we will occupy the river bank and set up a defense line to block them, while Wu Sangui is a lonely city at our mercy...... From this, it was also determined that its reinforcements had not yet arrived, so ......" Bai Wang sneered: "Let's go the other way, ignore the riverbank defense line, and attack the city immediately!" ”

"Why does the marshal want to go the other way, as long as we block the Shun'an River, it will not be easy for the officers and soldiers to come over, there is time ...... at that time" Wang Yien was interrupted by Bai Wang before he finished speaking: "First of all, the Shun'an River is thirty miles away from here, the battle line is too long, and it consumes a lot of troops. Second, if we go to block the Shun'an River at this time, the officers and soldiers who don't know where they are will come out to attack, they are all elite iron horses, coming and going like the wind, which will make us suffer great losses and will not let us get our wish, so consumed until tomorrow, maybe the army of officers and soldiers is also coming, but we may not be blocked by the riverbank defense line, the city has not had time to attack, and nothing has been done! ”

Wang Yien suddenly realized that the officers and soldiers were hiding in the shadows, just to prevent their own side from going to the Shun'an River to establish a defensive line, and it was very likely that they would ambush nearby at any time to sneak attack, but if they sent a group of soldiers and horses to pretend to go north to block the river bank to contain it, this side will attack the city with all its might, and tens of thousands of people from the small Tongling City will rush up, and the city can be broken in an hour at most!

"! That's it! Dry it now! Wang Yien became excited, and kept patting Bai Wang's ass: "Yuan Sanzhong is shameless and claims that he is not even worthy of giving the handsome a handsome, and the handsome's trick is thirty-six miles...... Surprise, right! ”

Bai Wang laughed: "That's right, the sound is right, and the darkness is right!" ”

Just do it, the two discussed a little and immediately started a war action, and ordered Yuan Sanzhong to lead 2,000 troops to the Shun'an River in the northeast to attract the attention of officers and soldiers, and this side will attack with all their might, Wang Yien is responsible for the flank attack at the south gate, and Bai Wang personally sits in the main attack in Dongcheng!
