Ma Chao was very humane, or he was more helpless, so that the soldiers rested. And as the saying goes, "the emperor is not bad for hungry soldiers", Ma Chao of course it is impossible for him to let the soldiers be too tired, that will not be beneficial to his own side. So only after everyone has rested, can we talk about tackling key problems.

At this point, in Jia Meng Pass, "Report to the general, the Liangzhou army outside the pass has been stationed, and there is no action!" ”

After hearing this, Ling Bao nodded, "Okay, pay close attention to the enemy's movements, if the enemy army has any changes, you must notify me in advance!" ”

"No!"

"Alright, let's go down!" Ling Bao waved his hand to the soldier and said.

The soldier took the order and left, and after the soldier left, Ling Bao gently stroked the short hair of his chin that was not too long, and said to himself with a smile: "Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi, I have long wanted to meet you, and the Liangzhou army under you!" I'm going to have a good look at it now, which is stronger or weaker than the rumored and powerful Liangzhou Army and my Yizhou Army? Hum! ”

As he spoke, Ling Bao's eyes suddenly opened at this time, and two cold lights were released from his eyes, which showed his incomparable determination to fight with the Liangzhou army-

And Ma Chao let the Liangzhou army rest for two days under Jiameng Pass, and then started the battle in accordance with the rules of the rivers and lakes, of course, before the war, everything was ready, and the siege equipment such as the ladder that should be built has also been built. At this time, it was still the first time to swear an oath, and then with Ma Chao's order, the army attacked Jiameng Pass.

This time, Ma Chao asked Wu Anguo to lead the team and led the Liangzhou sergeants to tackle key problems. Although Cui An is extremely brave, Ma Chao also knows it. One is that he is not very suitable for leading troops to attack the city, and the other is that Cui An also does not like to siege the city. His favorite thing is battlefield fighting, whether it is heads-up or fighting with soldiers, it is his favorite.

And Wu Anguo naturally has nothing to do with this, because in his opinion, this is the lord's value and trust in himself. The lord didn't bring himself with him during the last battle of Hanzhong, and he thought that the lord couldn't bring himself to Yizhou this time, but he didn't expect that the lord still didn't forget himself and brought himself with him. To say that Ma Dai and Mi Fang both let their lords stay. I didn't expect that I asked my lord to bring it over, and I must behave well and live up to my lord's trust in me.

So when he thought of this, Wu Anguo's heart was extremely happy, so he felt that his whole body had inexhaustible strength. I just want to fight with the guards of Jia Mengguan for a while, so I can vent well. To say that Wu Anguo is not a militant like Cui An and Zhang Fei. But it's not a particularly stable master. Therefore, when his arms and legs are about to rust, he can go up and lead the soldiers to tackle the key problems, and he naturally has to take advantage of this opportunity.

Looking at the Liangzhou sergeant who attacked under the pass, Ling Bao smiled slightly, and then said loudly to the guard guard: "Release!" ”

So, Jia Meng closed it like arrows. The arrows were all shot at the attacking Liangzhou soldiers under the pass. Wu Anguo looked at it like this, good guy, the Yizhou Army is really rich, so many arrows. There is definitely no such strength in ordinary places. In fact, what he thought was indeed right, Yizhou produced a lot of grain, and it was indeed strong. What's more, Shangjiameng Pass hasn't been at war for a long time, so there are naturally a lot of family backgrounds, and this round of 1,800 arrows is not a big deal for them at all.

However, at this time, the arrows that kept coming down from the gate, this Liangzhou sergeant was unlucky when he encountered it, and it was okay to react quickly, after all, holding a shield could block the rain of arrows falling from the gate, but the slow reaction was directly shot, and the most reluctant was either dead or injured.

But don't look at the rain of arrows in the Yizhou army, there are indeed a lot of them, but they can't just shoot like this all the time, so in the air, the Liangzhou army is soldiers have slowly come to the front of Jiameng Pass, and Wu Anguo is commanding everyone to set up a ladder and start attacking the city at this time.

If you want to talk about Wu Anguo and Ma Dai, the two of them are still a little different. In the case of Ma Dai, he was more of a leader than to command, but to take the lead himself, and he climbed the ladder to be the first to climb the pass, and then started a fierce battle with the guards. However, Wu Anguo is different, although he actually wants to do so, but he also knows that his bigger task is actually to command the soldiers to attack the city, if the soldiers can climb the Jiameng Pass, it is the most beneficial for his side, not to go up alone.

So he first commanded the soldiers to set up the ladder, and after the soldiers were ready to climb the ladder, he climbed the ladder.

Ma Chao watched the battle from behind, nodded at this, and said in his heart that Wu Anguo really took care of the overall situation than Bo Zhan. Of course, Ma Chao doesn't think that Ma Dai doesn't understand the overall situation, it can only be said that the two think differently, Wu Anguo thinks more than his own brother. In contrast, Ma Dai really didn't manage many soldiers, and he patronized himself when he attacked the city, but Ma Chao knew that Wu Anguo would not be like this. You must know that the battlefield of Ludao is not a battle for you alone, so of course Ma Chao admires Wu Anguo's style. As for Ma Dai's words, Ma Chao knew that he still had to practice, and he was indeed not as experienced as Wu Anguo.

At this time, Wu Anguo was holding a shield in his left hand, holding it on his head, defending against the fragments on the gate, while his right hand held the ladder and climbed up quickly. Of course, he also carried a ring-headed knife behind him, Wu Anguo could actually be the same as Ma Dai, holding a shield in one hand, holding a knife in the other, and using both hands, but in that case, it would naturally have a great impact on climbing the ladder and reaction speed, so he didn't do it. But Wu Anguo's speed on the cloud ladder is indeed faster than Ma Dai's, mainly because he has rich battlefield experience, even if he doesn't practice much, but he can see more than Ma Dai.

Wu Anguo saw that the soldier next to him was hit on the head by a stone, and his brain suddenly burst out, and he fell directly down the ladder. And there are countless soldiers who have been hit by rolling wooden stones, shot by arrows, and splashed with oil. However, Wu Anguo has seen a lot, and these have not affected him anymore, and he continues to climb the ladder, preparing to climb the pass with his soldiers.

At this time, the Ling Bud on the pass has been commanding the soldiers to defend, especially against Wu Anguo, the rolling wood and stone on the pass are really like not wanting money, and the Liangzhou soldiers have suffered heavy losses so far. Moreover, the guards of Jiameng Pass directly came to the attack of the Liangzhou Army fundamentally. It was directly aimed at the attack of the cloud ladder, so some soldiers picked up a lot of cloud ladders, and as a result, the cloud ladder of the Liangzhou army fell down directly, and if they tackled the key problems, they had to be erected again.

Ma Chaoxin said that he was really a mistake, the soldiers of the Yizhou Army guarding Jiameng Pass have a lot of experience, and they are also powerful, they can provoke the ladder. I knew that I should have asked someone to make a ladder car, not this simple ladder. It's okay to have a ladder like this across the moat. But when you meet other people's experienced and powerful soldiers, it's still not enough to see.

The ladder car is the lower wheel, and it is the ladder erected on the car, and the soldiers do not need to carry it, just push it directly to the city or close it. The ladder truck is also more expensive than the simple ladder. It's more time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it has to be admitted. It's compared to a simple ladder. It's not easy for people to destroy. And as long as you push the ladder cart under the city or close it, you can board it to attack the city, and it is difficult for the opponent's guards to destroy it.

Ma Chao hurriedly passed down the military order at this time, and asked the craftsmen in the army to hurry up to build a ladder car, and the simple ladder now seems to be no longer possible, because there is no advantage in dealing with others. On the contrary, it has become a disadvantage for one's own side.

So Ma Chao hurriedly ordered, if he didn't give the order again, he might not lose much.

"Mingjin retreats!"

"Ding Ding Ding Ding...... Dingdingding......"

As soon as Wu Anguo heard Ming Jin's voice, he quickly commanded the soldiers who attacked the key positions to retreat. He wanted to keep climbing the ladder. But I also had to retreat, military law is like a mountain, and as a general, I have to obey military orders.

The first attack was mainly a temptation, and Ma Chao saw it almost in the back, so he let the soldier Mingjin. If you don't pay for it, you won't necessarily lose much. From this simple battle, Ma Chao drew several conclusions, first, the combat power of the Yizhou army is very strong, stronger than the ghost pawns in Hanzhong, and the defense is even more experienced, which is not easy to deal with. Second, it is that the ladder of oneself made a mistake, causing losses to one's side, but fortunately it was discovered earlier, otherwise the consequences may be unimaginable. The third is that if it goes on like this, Jia Mengguan will be attacked so strongly, and he may not be able to attack it for a few months.

Thinking of this, Ma Chao looked at Jia Xu next to him, and said in his heart that he had made a mistake in the ladder, and Jia Xu, the old fox, didn't tell himself what was wrong, whether he didn't pay attention to it, or for some other reason.

Jia Xu looked at his lord looking at him, and he vaguely knew what his lord thought. He said in his heart at this time, he didn't want to say so much, some things have to be seen by the lord yourself, seeing is believing, seeing is believing-

Ma Chao, Chen Zhi and others have returned to the big tent, generally speaking, according to the rules of Ma Chao's Liangzhou army, at least after the first retreat, Ma Chao's side has to gather everyone to the big tent to discuss. Even if they express their opinions, they all talk about their views on the enemy and their own side, or if they have any good strategies and ideas, and so on.

After seeing everyone, Ma Chao first reviewed himself: "Today, it was my mistake, the simple ladder really didn't play a big role for the guards of the Yizhou Army, so I can't escape the blame for today's disadvantage!" ”

"Lord ......"

Chen Zhigang wanted to say something, but Ma Chao waved his hand, "Needless to say, I, Ma Mengqi, am not a person who knows mistakes but does not admit them." Don't think that just because I'm your lord, I shouldn't admit my mistake! No, although I am a good manager, but a mistake is a mistake, there is nothing that cannot be said! The ancients said, 'A general is incompetent, exhausting a thousand troops', and now it is the mistake of a commander like me, which has caused a lot of casualties among the soldiers, so everyone must take this as a warning! In the future, when leading troops to fight, you must be careful and cautious in all affairs, or I will be a lesson for you! ”

"No!" Several people agreed in unison.

Of course, Ma Chao's words are not just admitting his mistakes, he is mainly still, the first is to let his subordinates understand that he can recognize his mistakes, and the second is to let his subordinates take a look, and when they lead an army to fight alone in the future, don't be like yourself, there will be similar mistakes, and then it can be said that it is unforgivable. Isn't it obvious that this "lesson from the past" is not obvious enough, and if you can't learn a lesson, then it will be a disaster after all.

In fact, in the hearts of Chen Zhi and several people, his lord is indeed good. is a person who can recognize mistakes, admit mistakes and correct mistakes, not to mention far away, but at least in this matter. They also knew that the lord of the Dao had already ordered someone to build a ladder truck, at least once the ladder car was built, then there would be no problem with the ladder.

And in the hearts of everyone, this first breakthrough ended with such a result, although everyone was also unwilling to do this, but now it can only be like this, there is no other good way. (To be continued......)
