Chapter 415: The Enemy Meets
Ma Chao got the help of Beigong Yan and successfully took Longxi County.
In less than ten days, Ma Chao connected Kenan, the second county of Longxi.
Next, as long as Ma Chao blocked the reinforcements from Liangzhou in Longxi, Zhang Fei took Guangwei and stabilized, and then the Jieting blocked the reinforcements from Wei's Guanzhong, Yan Han could digest the Yongliang land west of Liupan Mountain.
In the main hall, Beigong Yan suggested to Ma Chao: "Uncle, Xiangwu is close to Nan'an County, and there are still a large number of cities in the west.
Xiangwu is too far to the east, and now it should quickly occupy the city to the west, so as not to let the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou penetrate deep into Longxi, otherwise Longxi can only occupy a small half. ”
Ma Chao looked at the map, and after a deep sigh, he said: "My nephew's words are good, Xiangwu is too far east, if you resist Liangzhou reinforcements in Xiangwu, it will be too passive." Although Liangzhou only had 10,000 regular troops called by Xiahou on the surface, each county could easily recruit 20,000 or 30,000 horses.
If they arrive in Xiangwu, then Longxi is equivalent to not taking it, and Di Dao City is close to Jincheng, and it is the former Han Dynasty Longxi Zhi Office, the city is strong, can be defended, I want to march to Di Dao, in Di Dao to resist Liangzhou reinforcements! ”
The meaning of Beigong Yan and Ma Chao is to keep the enemy out of the country.
Ma Chao asked Beigong Yan: "Nephew, there are a lot of soldiers and horses in Liangzhou, I have to bring a considerable number of troops to Di Dao, this Xiangwu, you may help me defend it?" ”
For Beigong Yan, Ma Chao trusts him very much, but what he trusts is Beigong Yan's identity, loyalty, not ability, and Ma Chao is not clear about Beigong Yan's ability.
As soon as Beigong Yan heard this, he knew that Ma Chao was planning to leave Xiangwu to him to guard.
Beigong Yan immediately said: "Uncle rest assured, my father's martial arts, although I didn't understand it, I also learned a lot of things, and I have also gained the heart of the army in Longxi all these years." Moreover, the uncle is famous, and most of these soldiers are Qiang people, as long as the uncle gives an order, he can fight for the Han Dynasty.
As for the powerful and officials in the city, as soon as my uncle arrived, he wanted to surrender to his uncle. ”
Ma Chao smiled: "Okay! I was relieved to have a nephew. Since this is the case, my nephew will guard Xiangwu, and my soldiers and horses will rest for one night, and tomorrow I will lead my troops to Didao. ”
Ma Chao's prestige in Yongliang is too high, even if these soldiers are allowed to rebel, they will not dare to rebel, not to mention that Beigong Yan, the son of Ma Chao's world friend, will help guard the town.
In the early morning of the next day, Ma Chao led his troops to Didao.
On the other side, Liangzhou Jincheng.
Yuzhong is the seat of Jincheng, and in later generations, it is very close to the famous Lanzhou.
And Yuzhong to the south, but one hundred and fifty miles is Di Dao.
Xu Miao, the assassin of Liangzhou stationed in Jincheng, discussed with Xiahou Cheng, the governor of Liangzhou, and decided to let Xiahou Cheng lead 10,000 troops to support Xiangwu first, and Xu Miao was responsible for summoning the county soldiers from various counties in Liangzhou as backup.
Xiahou said that when he was still on the road, Ma Chao arrived at Di Dao first.
At this moment, Xiahou said that he was still in Guguan City, thirty miles north of Di Dao.
Xiahou said that he had just arrived in Guguan City and was about to rest for a night before sending troops, when he received a report from the scout: the banner of the Han Dynasty had been hung at the head of Di Dao City.
Xiahou said that when he heard the news, his face suddenly sank, and he said in a low voice: "Longxi is too guarded by You Chu is a capable minister, there are thousands of defenders in the city, and even if Ma Chao is famous, he will not be able to stop it for even ten days."
Could it be that You Chu surrendered to Ma Chao, or did Ma Chao worry that we would arrive with reinforcements, so he divided his troops to occupy Di Dao and resist our army? ”
A member of the army who had a good relationship with You Chu said: "I know that You Chu is too guarded, and he will never surrender, I think Ma Chao is afraid that our army will come to support, so he divided his troops to occupy Di Dao and block our army." ”
"Not bad!" After listening to the analysis of joining the army, Xiahou nodded and said: "We must not be stopped here by Ma Chao, if Zhuge Liang takes Longyou and blocks the reinforcements in Guanzhong, then Liangzhou will also fall, so we must support Longyou as soon as possible."
If Ma Chao is divided into troops, I think his strength should only be about 5,000 people, and our army has 10,000 people, don't be afraid of Ma Chao, pass the order, let the brothers eat and drink enough tonight, and early tomorrow morning, raise troops to attack Di Dao! ”
"No!" The generals will take the command.
In the early morning of the next day, Xiahou said that he would lead his troops to Di Dao to challenge Ma Chao.
Xiahou said that he led the soldiers and horses to arrive at the city of Didao, and the soldiers and horses set up a formation under the city, Xiahou said that he urged the horses to come, and pointed the spear in his hand at the city and shouted: "Ma Chao, dare to come out and fight with me?" ”
Ma Chao didn't show up, but Pang De came to the city, looked at Xiahou under the city, and said with a light smile on Pang De's face: "Who should I be, it turned out to be a defeated general." ”
"Pound Piff!" Looking at Pang De, Xiahou suddenly showed a gritted teeth.
When Cao Cao attacked Hanzhong, Xiahou Yuan was responsible for attacking Yangping Pass, and it was Pang De who was responsible for guarding Yangping Pass.
Xiahou said that he followed Xiahou Yuan on the expedition, but was defeated by Pound, when Pound slashed him in the back, almost killing him, and now the scar is still on his back, every time it rains on a cloudy day, the wound is numb and itchy, all of this is brought by Pound!
"Pound Piff, dare to go out of the city and die!" Xiahou said that his eyes were suddenly red, and he looked at Pang De at the head of the city, and a shocking roar sounded in his mouth.
"Since you are looking for death, I will fulfill you!" Pang De chuckled, got down to the city, and immediately saw the city gate coming, Pang De urged the horse out, and shot towards Xiahou with a long knife in his hand.
Ma Chao stood in a corner of the city and watched quietly.
If it were ten years ago, Ma Chao would definitely take the lead and go out in person.
But now, Ma Chao is nearly fifty years old, and many things are downplayed.
And Ma Chao is also self-aware, as a general, he should not attract too much attention, and it is not good to make too many contributions, and it is easy to bring danger to himself.
Therefore, Ma Chao handed over the task of facing Xiahou to Pang De.
The so-called enemies met, and their eyes were red, and the moment Pound rode out of the city, Xiahou said that he urged the good horse under his crotch, and went straight to Pound with a spear in his hand to kill.
When the horses intersected, the spear was like an evil dragon out of the sea, like thunder, and stabbed straight at Pound's chest.
Xiahou's martial arts are the leaders of the new generation of Cao Wei's clan, and he was almost killed by Pang De because of his lack of experience, but now that he has been practicing for so many years, Xiahou's martial arts have also matured.
A shot struck, Pound experienced and sideways dodged, waiting for the wrong horse, the tiger's waist twisted back, and the machete in his hand carried the momentum of Mount Tai's pressure, and cut at Xiahou Cheng's back, Pound used this trick to cut Xiahou Cheng.
