Chapter 376: Liangzhou Arms Burn Rattan Armor (continued)
It's not, no one else will say it, just talk about that Cui An, as long as he talks about capturing his own people alive, he must be more active than anyone else. But no, these people are not so much planted in the hands of the Liangzhou army, but in fact they are planted in the hands of Cui An.
Meng Shu thought to himself, don't be captured alive by Cui An tonight, otherwise......
He really didn't want to do this anymore, and said in his heart that there were so many people on his side, even if the vine armor soldiers had been burned so much, but weren't there other people on his side? Is this a vegetarian?
Ma Chao naturally didn't let them go, and when he saw that the other party had already withdrawn from the valley, Ma Chao also made a quick decision, "The whole army is pursuing!" ”
"Kill!"
……――
At this time, he really can't care about any fire, at least at this moment, Ma Chao knows in his heart that if he doesn't hurry up to pursue, then he will lose a great opportunity to cause heavy casualties to the enemy. Of course, this time is not without risks, but compared to the gains, Ma Chao thinks it is worth it.
And he doesn't know the soldiers on his side, at this time, they are indeed gearing up and eager to try, but they are just waiting to kill the enemy, and then vent the hatred in their hearts, after all, they were really aggrieved before. Therefore, if you, the lord, don't let them do this, then the loss will be on your own side.
So Ma Chao made a quick decision. You must hurry up and pursue, as for saying that your own side will also suffer some casualties, there is no way. There's no way to get the best of both worlds these days. You can not lose much, and you can kill the other party. Therefore, Ma Chao naturally understands, therefore, he knows that at this moment, he has to give up one head. Either you estimate your own casualties. Instead of chasing, watching Meng Shou and them escape, like that. Naturally, there will be no casualties on your side.
So if you don't care about your own casualties, as long as you grasp your own side and let the other side suffer heavy casualties, then at this time. I can only chase after it with men and horses. And Ma Chao obviously chose the latter without hesitation. This is indeed in line with his character, and it is also what the soldiers of the Liangzhou Army want the most now. If Ma Chao really didn't let them pursue, they would all be suffocated. After all, just by setting fire, it is indeed impossible to alleviate the resentment in the hearts of the officers and soldiers of the Liangzhou Army, which must be vented with real knives and guns.
So just like that, Ma Chao directly chased after his own soldiers. In his opinion, the current situation is "the opportunity cannot be lost, and the loss will not come again". This rattan armor soldier was set up by his own side tonight. Will you have such a chance in the future, and can you still have it? It's really hard to say.
If you want to talk about the vulture bone, maybe it is "once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well rope", so this vine armor soldier suffered heavy losses after being burned tonight, so tomorrow, this vine armor soldier may never appear again. Then the rattan armor is not coming out, what chance does this side have?
So I can only take advantage of this opportunity to fight directly with Meng Shu and the people of the vulture bones, so it's better-
To say that after the previous fire, the current one's own people are not necessarily less than the other side's people, maybe more, this is not necessarily. Moreover, in addition, Meng Huo's vulture bones and their vine armor soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and their own combat power was stronger than theirs, so of course Ma Chao knew that as long as he caught up, then the one who had the advantage would definitely be his own.
Therefore, he didn't have to mobilize his morale, he just shouted a roar, and all the soldiers followed him, and directly ran to the fleeing Meng Huoyinkeng cave soldiers, the vine armor soldiers of the vulture bones, and the ordinary soldiers of the Ugo country.
They looked at each other as if they had seen an enemy who had killed their father. This may be an exaggeration, but if you really talk about it, it's pretty much the same. After all, the unhappiness and resentment in their hearts, plus those negative feelings, are actually only known to themselves. Even Ma Chao knows it, and he understands it, but he only knows his own business, and his feelings in other people's hearts are still worse after all. After all, I am myself, not someone else.
Therefore, with the order of his lord, the soldiers of the Liangzhou army were like a floodgate open, heading straight for the enemy! ――
This night should be the bad luck of Meng Shu and Wutu Gu, although they may not be captured alive by the Liangzhou army, but their soldiers, it must be heavy casualties. It's not impossible, but it's going to happen. And when the two of them knew that Ma Chao led the troops to chase over, they had such a thought, and said in their hearts that tonight, it was completely planted! Don't say anything, you lose, and it's a big defeat, a fiasco!
Even if they really don't want to admit it, in their hearts, they all think so. They don't want to admit it, it's not that they can't afford to lose, the main thing is that it's still hard to accept it.
After all, the contrast between this time and the previous time is too great. If he was complacent and high-spirited before, he was waiting to destroy Ma Chao's Liangzhou army, and even capture Ma Chao alive. So at this moment, Meng Shu and the vulture bones, that is the defeated rooster and the frosted eggplant, are really wilted, and the previous love is high, it is indeed a stark contrast. This is really a bit interesting, and the contrast is really too great.
But if they still had this and that idea before, now they only have two thoughts, the first is to run quickly, hurry back to the silver pit cave in Sanjiang City, and don't be captured alive, this is more important than anything else. The second is that your own side will not suffer heavy losses, now that the rattan armor soldiers have been burned so much, if this own people and horses suffer heavy losses, what else can they do to fight against the Liangzhou army!
But maybe the first idea can be realized, but it's nothing. But the second idea of the two of them basically couldn't be realized, if it weren't for their heavy losses, why would Ma Chao take some risks, and then lead the troops to pursue, and chase after them. Honestly, that's not what it is. For him, this opportunity must be seized, otherwise there will be no more. This is given by God, as the so-called "providence takes it, but suffers from it"!
So in Ma Chao's case, this pursuit is necessary and inevitable, even if you can't catch Meng Shu and the vulture bones, but as long as they suffer heavy casualties, then their own side will be victorious, and their goal will be achieved, isn't it?
Meng Shu slapped the war horse fiercely at this time, and then shouted at the back: "Quick, everyone retreat, the Liangzhou army is catching up!" Let's work hard, let's go back to Sanjiang City sooner! ”
Meng Shu shouted, that does have a certain effect, and this is not only because he is the master of the Silver Pit Cave, but also because he is the barbarian king of this area. The main thing is that he said this to the heart of the soldier. Whether it was for the soldiers of his own Silver Pit Cave, or for the vine armor soldiers who were remnants of the vultures, including those foot soldiers, they actually wanted to return to the Silver Pit Cave in Sanjiang City as soon as possible. They are not stupid, they all understand that as long as they enter Sanjiang City, as soon as the gate of Sanjiang City is closed, then almost no one can enter.
Ma Chao Liangzhou soldiers and horses still have tens of thousands, but if you really want to talk about it, you want to open the gate of Sanjiang City with those tens of thousands, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a pipe dream. After all, things like King Mulu can only be a few after all. So now that there is no Mulu King, Ma Chaoliangzhou Army doesn't know when it will really break the walled gate of Sanjiang City. But the premise is that your own men and horses can return to the city smoothly, and the casualties are not too large, at least there must be men and horses who can defend Sanjiang City.
As a result, this idea was quite good, but in the end, the soldiers of the silver pit and the remnants of the vine armor soldiers, including those foot soldiers of the Ugo Kingdom, finally let Ma Chao Liangzhou Army catch up.
It's no wonder that's the case, after all, in the hearts of the soldiers of the Liangzhou Army, almost everyone is holding their breath, if they don't catch up with them, they can't fight with them, and they can't vent, because everyone is selling their strength, just to catch up with them, and then fight with them to eliminate the hatred in their hearts.
And whether it is the soldiers of this silver pit, or the remnants of the rattan armor soldiers and those foot soldiers of the Ugo Kingdom, speaking of their previous bodies, they are indeed inferior to the Liangzhou army. Because they came from afar, the Liangzhou army had rested for a long time before, and it could be regarded as waiting for work, so who had the advantage, there was no need to say more.
