378. Chapter 378: Shock

With 500 cavalry, defeating 10,000 elite cavalry, this kind of record is like a myth. However, the victory of this war, but there are many flukes in it, which cannot be replicated.

If it weren't for Wang Chengxin's doubts and stopped the charging Wolf Qiang soldiers, I'm afraid they wouldn't have messed up.

If the leader of the Wolf Qiang is not so face-loving, he will turn around and flee after Zhang Liao kills him, no matter how brave and good Zhang Liao is, it is impossible to kill the leader of the Wolf Qiang among the ten thousand troops.

What's more, Zhang Liao's killing of the leader of the Wolf Qiang was also a very fluke. If it weren't for the fact that he first drank loudly to shock the mind of the leader of the Wolf Qiang, and then with a thunderous blow, he quickly killed the leader of the Wolf Qiang.

With the bravery of the leader of the Wolf Qiang, it is not difficult to fight Zhang Liao for more than ten rounds to ensure that he does not die.

At that time, when the Wolf Qiang cavalry completely completed the encirclement, Zhang Liao and them became the turtles in the urn.

On the other hand, that is, the character of the Wolf Qiang people, they are the kind of people who worship warriors and bully the weak and fear the hard. Otherwise, even if the leader died, they would not necessarily be defeated by Zhang Liao and the others.

It can be said that the victory of this war has too many coincidences in it.

However, this victory, although somewhat fluke, always belongs to those who are prepared.

If it weren't for Zhang Liao's courage, he dared to charge into battle with 500 cavalry; If it weren't for Zhang Liao's eyes like a torch, he could quickly grasp the fighter; If it weren't for Zhang Liao's extraordinary courage and ability to take the rank of general among the ten thousand armies, this war would definitely not have been won.

Since ancient times, kings have been defeated. The winner, that's the legend; The loser can only be a foil for the winner.

"Kill!"

Zhang Liao was like a madman, and he took the lead in chasing and killing the Wolf Qiang cavalry. The hundreds of soldiers behind him also followed closely behind Zhang Liao, killing the enemy soldiers who were caught up by them.

At this time, in the hearts of these proud soldiers, they were completely convinced by Zhang Liao. If they experience war again in the future, as long as Zhang Liao does not retreat, they will definitely not retreat.

The prestige of the generals among the soldiers is not based on boasting, but by virtue of their ability, real swords and real guns.

Being able to follow a talented general who can lead everyone to victory is the best destination for the soldiers.

"Kill!"

Yu Poison led two thousand foot soldiers, and he couldn't catch up with the cavalry in front of him no matter what. However, many wolf cavalry were knocked off their horses, and at this time they became the target of these foot soldiers.

Although their speed couldn't keep up, the shouts that resounded through the world could also cause huge psychological pressure on Wang Cheng and others.

Otherwise, even if the leader of the wolf and qiang is dead. If Wang Cheng led the remaining wolf cavalry to turn around and fight to the death, Zhang Liao and the men and horses under his command would not be able to resist no matter what.

Although Yu Poison and others were not able to directly participate in this battle, they also indirectly strengthened Zhang Liao's momentum.

The sound of shouting and killing resounded throughout the land, and Zhang Liao struggled to kill a wolf cavalryman, and chased forward again.

"You must kill Wang Cheng, if you let him escape back to the city, it will definitely be extremely difficult to conquer Sanguan."

Zhang Liao had no doubt that Wang Cheng, who had suffered a defeat, would definitely not have the courage to go out of the city again after escaping back to Sanguan.

If he couldn't avoid the battle by virtue of the danger of scattering the pass, unless Chen Xu mobilized a large army to come, he would definitely not be able to take this level.

Zhang Liao, who knew the stakes well, naturally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to leave Wang Cheng behind.

The weather was still sunny and dry, with no signs of rain. Wang Fang stood on the city wall, his face a little ugly.

Since Wang Cheng borrowed it to join the wolf cavalry, he has not been shy about Wang Fang. This time, Wang Cheng led the troops to the battle, and did not bring Wang Fang with him.

Not only that, Wang Fang, who has always been the second-in-command of Sanguan, was actually deprived of military power this time, and could only be reduced to a dispensable general.

And the temporary guard of Sanguan is also a henchman of Wang Cheng. Fortunately, the king still has many cronies, and there are also some generals in the city who are friendly with the king.

It is precisely because of this that Wang Cheng did not dare to persecute too much, and Wang Fang was still qualified to stand on the city wall.

"The general is not good, the front army is defeated, and the lord is just being hunted down by the Chen army!"

The temporary guard of Sanguan was standing on the city wall and napping when he suddenly heard an urgent shout.

He opened his eyes suddenly, stepped forward and picked up the collar of the person who spoke, and said in disbelief: "This is absolutely impossible, the lord led 10,000 wolf cavalry to fight, and the thief army only had less than 3,000 men, how could he defeat the lord?" ”

The scout's face turned red, and he said: "It's true, the leader of the Wolf Qiang was killed, the Wolf Cavalry was defeated, the thief army took advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, and our army was defeated!" ”

Releasing his hand grasping the scout's collar, the temporary guard of Sanguan said to himself, "How is this good? How good is that? ”

When Wang Fang heard the scout's words, his heart moved, and he hurriedly stepped forward and said to the temporary guard of Sanguan: "The lord's army was defeated and hunted down, why didn't the general lead the army to rescue the lord?" ”

"In this way, the general has a life-saving grace for the lord, and he will definitely be more respected by the lord in the future."

When the temporary guard of Sanguan heard this, his eyes lit up, and then he said hesitantly: "The lord asked me to guard Sanguan, and I must not leave my post without permission." I rashly led my troops to the rescue, if the thieves took the opportunity to attack the city, what should I do? ”

Wang Fang shook his head and said, "The thieves only have 3,000 soldiers and horses, and they are fighting with the lord, how can they have extra troops to attack Sanguan?" ”

"What's more, the Sanguan City is tall, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The general only needs to leave 500 soldiers and horses, and even if there are thieves and soldiers, I can ensure that the pass is not lost. ”

The temporary guard of Sanguan was a little moved, but he glanced at Wang Fang, but he was silent.

How could he not know about the dirty affair between these two brothers? Although Wang Fangnai is Wang Cheng's brother, the relationship between the two has always been bad.

He had to worry about what would happen if Wang Fang rebelled after leaving Sanguan.

As if knowing the worries of the temporary guards of Sanguan, Wang Fang hurriedly said: "Although usually, I have many disagreements with my brother, but now I am waiting for both glory and loss. ”

"If the city is broken, what good will it do me? What's more, my brother and I are related by blood after all, and I will not betray my brother in the face of the world's condemnation no matter what. ”

The temporary guard of Sanguan moved in his heart, and secretly thought: "General Wang Fang is right, no matter how bad the relationship between the two is, they have a blood relationship after all." ”

"Based on this alone, as long as General Wang Fang doesn't want to be scolded by the world, he will not betray the lord at this time."

Thinking of this, the temporary guard of Sanguan no longer hesitated, and immediately ordered a thousand men and horses, and prepared to rescue Wang Cheng.

Wang Fang admonished again: "The thief army only has 3,000 men and horses, and even if our army is defeated, the number of people will far exceed that of the thief army. The general might as well bring more soldiers and horses out of the city to rescue the lord, so that defeat can not be turned into victory. ”

The eyes of the temporary guard of Sanguan lit up, and he thought: "General Wang Fang is right, there are not many soldiers and horses in the thief army, even if the lord is defeated for a while, if I bring more men and horses to the rescue, it may not be impossible to turn defeat into victory." ”

"In this way, not only did I save the lord, but I also made a great contribution."

Thinking of this, the temporary guard of Sanguan no longer hesitated, ordered 2,500 men and horses, and went out of the city to meet Wang Cheng.

However, it was said that the wolf cavalry was frightened by Zhang Liao and fled in all directions. Wang Cheng didn't dare to turn back at all along the way, but just galloped wildly, hoping to escape back to Sanguan as soon as possible.

He was running away when he suddenly heard a drum and dust in front of him.

Wang Cheng was shocked in his heart, and secretly complained: "Could it be that there is an ambush of thieves in front?" It's really heaven and I'm dead! ”

"The last general will bring troops to the rescue, don't worry, lord!"

When Wang Chengzheng's heart was like ashes, he suddenly heard a loud shout. He fixed his eyes and found that the person who came was his subordinate, and his face looked a little better.

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, his face changed sharply and he said sharply, "Who let you out of the city?" ”

The temporary guard of Sanguan said with a little weakness: "It's the lord's brother, General Wangfang!" ”

Wang Cheng's face was extremely pale, and he said loudly: "March at full speed and rush back to Sanguan!" ”

The temporary guard of Sanguan is ambitious to defeat Zhang Liao and make a miraculous achievement. But Wang Cheng's attitude made him feel like a basin of cold water was poured on his head.

At this time, he didn't dare to express his opinions at all, so he could only follow Wang Cheng silently.

Along the way, Wang Cheng finally asked the ins and outs of the matter.

After hearing the general's words, Wang Chengcai secretly thought in his heart: "I hope he is really like what he said." ”

The steep and high Sanguan city wall can be seen from afar. Wang Cheng took his own 2,500 soldiers and horses, as well as some of the Wolf and Qiang people, and came to the city of Sanguan.

At this time, Wang Cheng was complicated in his heart. He didn't know if the king would rebel.

The temporary guard of Sanguan already knew Wang Cheng's worries, slapped his horse forward, and shouted loudly to the defenders in the city: "The lord has returned, why don't you open the city gate quickly and welcome the lord into the city?" ”

Wang Fang on the city wall, after seeing that it was indeed Wang Cheng and the others, hurriedly shouted: "Wait a minute, lord, I will let people open the city gate!" ”

"Crunch, crunch!"

Wang Cheng looked at the slowly opening city gate, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

"It seems that Wang Fang still cares about me and him as blood relatives, in this case, I can't be too harsh on him in the future."

"Kill!"

Wang Cheng was thinking about things when he suddenly heard the sound of shouting and killing behind him. He was shocked in his heart, knowing that Zhang Liao had already led his troops to kill him.

"Into town! Town! ”

Wang Cheng shouted, and didn't care about the thousand-pound gate that had not been completely pulled up, so he rushed to the city first. And the rest of the people ran after him into the city.

"Bang dang!"

However, as soon as Wang Cheng rushed into the city, the thousand-pound gate was lowered. There were many soldiers who didn't have time to run over, and they were directly pressed into meat sauce by the thousand-pound giant gate.
