Chapter 855: Guan Ma Meets
Chapter 860
It's not even a battle, it's just a simple clean-up operation. Under the leadership of Guan Yu, 500 cavalry from Liangzhou charged the Rong soldiers. Break through from the middle, then scatter and separate, chasing down the fleeing Rong with small forces.
The Rong people's unparalleled riding skills in the world, and the elusive archery skills are useless at all. All that awaits them is death, death, non-stop death.
The battle came and went quickly, and after a short time, the Rong were defeated. The Liangzhou cavalry began to clean up the battlefield, scavenging the dry food on the corpses, bringing back the ownerless war horses, and collecting quivers.
Zhang Mang looked at this scene, he was knowledgeable after all. Seeing that these people are clean in their hands and feet, everyone performs their own duties, fast and not chaotic, but they can save physical strength to the greatest extent.
This made Zhang Mang understand that this team of people is not only amazing in combat. There is also a clear division of labor inside. If it weren't for the day-to-day training, it would never have been to this extent.
He stood there, with only one sentence in his heart: If he is worthy of being a bandit, he is fast to grab things.
Guan Yuquan came to Zhang Mang on the horse, and looked at him coldly on the horse.
Zhang Mang hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted: "Jizhou Zhang Mang, thank you General Guan for your rescue." ”
"We want to do something, now is the time to hire people, are you willing to listen to my command?"
"This ......" Zhang Mang hesitated for a moment, of course he admired Guan Yu's martial arts. can follow Guan Yu to do things, which is equivalent to taking refuge in Cheng Dalei in Liangzhou and betraying the original master.
The word betrayal is always uncomfortable.
Seeing Zhang Mang's hesitant expression, Guan Yu left and turned his horse's head, gathering the soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield together, intending to leave.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Mang was completely stunned. Of course, betrayal is uncomfortable, but if you don't take refuge in Guan Yu, you are likely to die in this realm. Compared to death, discomfort is nothing. So it's not that he's unwilling, just a little reserved. As long as Guan Yu flickered a few words, he was ready to swear allegiance.
Unexpectedly, Guan Yu didn't have the idea of grinding with him at all, and turned around and left.
"General Guan, General Guan......" Zhang Mang smiled on his face: "Is everything negotiable?" ”
More than 100 people led by Zhang Mang joined the team. Liu Bei led people to clean and bandage the wounds of the wounded soldiers. In this case, Liu Bei's personal martial arts are actually not mentionable, and the only thing that can be used is his medical skills.
Everyone must leave quickly, and their whereabouts have been revealed. If the Rong tribe who fled just now lured a large group of people over, everyone would easily fall into the encirclement of the Rong tribe.
Under the leadership of Guan Yu, everyone began to retreat and transfer. Along the way, he encountered several waves of emperors who were chased and killed by the Rong people, Guan Yu led the army to defeat the Rong people, recruited people, and the team expanded little by little.
Zhang Mang has been fighting with the army, he can become a general of the army, in fact, his martial arts are passable. At the beginning, the team he led did not dare to make direct contact with the Rong tribe at all, and could only do some peripheral spy work. But gradually, Zhang Mang found that some things had become different. His soldiers were bold and began to pursue the fleeing Rong tribe, and the casualties became smaller and smaller. Slowly, he dared to charge against the Rong clan. Later, they were already able to ride with the five hundred horsemen in Liangzhou, and when they saw the Rong tribe, they shouted and screamed, as if they saw a big girl without clothes.
They had almost forgotten that once upon a time on this battlefield, the Rong were the real masters. When the word Rong is mentioned, some people will subconsciously tremble.
It is true that the Rong people have unparalleled riding skills and excellent archery skills, but this is not the main factor that determines victory or defeat. The main reason is still morale. Where does the morale come from? It comes from one victory after another.
They are no longer weak and can be bullied, and the Rong are not invincible.
This defeated army, which was once chased by the Rong tribe and fled frantically, is building its own faith.
Three days later, Guan Yu had gathered 2,000 men. These people are all emperors who have gathered together in three days. Under the command of Guan Yu, they confronted small forces of the Rong tribe, learning to fight in battle and fighting in death. In this way, the speed of growth is fast, and now everyone is exhausted, but there is an invincible will in the body.
However, there are also big difficulties, and the food and grass of 2,000 people is the primary problem. And once the team expands, the speed of the march will naturally be slowed down, and it will no longer be as elusive as it once was.
Today, everyone is hidden in a mountain col to discuss the next step.
"Second brother, we are afraid that we have been targeted by the Rong clan now, and if we go out to act, we will be easily targeted by the Rong clan. Naturally, we can escape, but we are afraid that these brothers who have just gathered will not be able to withstand the attack of the Rong clan. Zhang Fei leaned over and said.
Guan Yu nodded: "The next step is to no longer act like before, now that we have manpower, it's time to do a few big things." ”
Zhang Fei's eyes lit up, and Shan Xiongxin, Shi Wengong and others were also elated.
"Does the second brother already have a plan?" Zhang Fei said excitedly.
"Nope. Guan Yu replied crisply.
"Uh......" Zhang Fei and the others were speechless for a while.
In fact, it is not convenient for Guan Yu to do things now. Now the men and horses under his command, together with the original people from Liangzhou, have a total of 2,000 people. This number is not too much, but it is not too much. It is not enough to attack the fortress of the Rong tribe, nor can it fight guerrilla warfare like before.
"Newspaper. At this moment, a junior colonel rushed over: "General Qiqiguan, there is a team going up the mountain at the bottom of the mountain, it is estimated that there are seven or eight hundred people. ”
"What is the origin, is it the Rong tribe?" Guan Yu was shocked, everyone is invisible in the mountains and forests, if they collide with the Rong tribe, there is not much room for maneuver here, and it will be a bloody battle when they encounter the Rong tribe.
"It's not the Rong clan, it should be the emperor. ”
"All on alert, ready for battle. ”
Guan Yu gave an order, since it is not the Rong clan. However, knowing the face but not the heart, in the face of a defeated emperor, we must still be vigilant.
Ma Chao led the remnants of the defeated army and retreated all the way to this place. I had planned to hide in the mountains for a few days to see how the situation changed. Unexpectedly, he collided with Guan Yu and his gang who were hiding in the mountain, and the two sides were a hundred steps apart, each of them was tense and refused to relax.
"Jingzhou Ma Mengqi, dare to ask Your Excellency where the sacred is and how to call it?" Ma Mengqi shouted from afar through the barren grass.
Everyone doesn't recognize Ma Chao, and Ma Chao doesn't recognize everyone. Each other is only known for not having met. Everyone has heard of the names of Ma Chao and Ma Meng.
Before Guan Yu could answer, Zhang Fei took the lead in taking a step and said: "We are the people of Liangzhou Cheng's family, Your Excellency might as well follow us and do things for Cheng's family." ”
Ma Chao didn't listen to this, and when he heard that they were from Liangzhou, the three corpse gods suddenly jumped violently, and the five spirits soared into the air.
