Chapter 288 Unexplained defeat
"The subordinates dare not! The wife was appointed as the captain of the cavalry by the lord himself, and asked the subordinates to let the wife take charge of the cavalry in the city once there is trouble in Chang'an. This is enough to prove the lord's trust in the wife." Seeing that Ma Yunlu had said this, Zhong Yao knew that if he stopped him, he would make a misunderstanding. He quickly handed over the cavalry's military power to Ma Yunlu, ordered people to open the city gate, and let Ma Yunlu lead his army out of the city to fight.
After a while, the city gate was wide open, and even so, the soldiers who were sieging the city still had no reaction and stood there in amazement.
In fact, it cannot be said that these soldiers did not respond, but they did not see the city gate being opened. Their eyes were all obsessed with the beauties on the top of the city, and were intoxicated by Zhao Ji's piano sound.
It was not until Ma Yunlu led his army to arrive and the sound of killings came out that all the soldiers reacted and resisted in panic.
However, this was only when they realized that their combat power was not as good as before. The spear that was sharp that could pierce the triple armor was now unable to penetrate even a single level under their full sprint. The armor they wore seemed to be made of paper, and was easily pierced by the opponent's weapons, and then died with an incredible look on their faces.
"How could this happen?" Not only ordinary soldiers, but even Ma and Han Sui felt a little unbelievable when they saw this scene. Why could the enemy soldiers easily pierce the armor of the soldiers under his command? Why did the soldiers under his command still unable to penetrate the armor of the opponent with their strength?
Although there were not many casualties on our side, such a huge gap in strength hit the morale of the army the most. Many soldiers were desperate when they saw this scene. Although they were not sure, they figured out the reasons themselves, thinking that the enemy soldiers were favored by God, so they looked like they were like copper tendons and iron bones. The soldiers on our side were obviously punished by God, which made them unable to use them and the armor on their bodies did not work.
In this way, the soldiers naturally had no intention of fighting and fled in all directions. Whether it was Ma, Han Sui, or the Western Liang warlords under Han Sui, no matter how prestige they had among the soldiers on weekdays, they could not restrain the soldiers' defection.
They have lost their nests and can't bear the consequences of failure, because from then on they will be homeless, almost like a betrayal dog.
"Don't escape, come back for me!" Ma Wan watched the soldiers under her command run away in scattered ways, and was furious in her heart. She regarded Ma Yunlu as the culprit of all this, and immediately stepped forward, trying to kill Ma Yunlu and stabilize the situation.
At this time, he no longer felt pity for his good health, nor did he care about the brother-sister relationship between Ma and Ma Yunlu, but only wanted to kill the enemy general and stabilize his own situation.
However, unexpectedly, Ma Wan came to Ma Yunlu, and was stabbed to death by the opponent in just one round.
"Ah..." Ma Wan's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe it until she died. He was killed like this.
"Ahhhh... kill my brother and take your life." Just as Ma Wan died, Ma Wan's companion Li Kan rushed forward, holding a big knife in his hand, trying to kill Ma Yunlu with one knife.
However, Li Kan's martial arts and Ma Wan were just a match between him and Ma Yunlu, and he was not a match for Ma Yunlu at all. He was also taken away by Ma Yunlu in just one round.
With the death of Ma Wan and Li Kan, all the soldiers under their command fled in scattered, which made the army even more disintegrated.
However, Ma did not retreat with the army. He led his soldiers and waited silently for the girl Ma Yunlu. From the battle just now, he could clearly see that his sister's martial arts skills were so high that she might no longer be inferior to him. He was very shocked. He didn't know why Liu He had such a method. In addition, he wanted to understand why his 100,000 army was defeated like this.
As a result, after just a rush of five thousand cavalry, the 100,000 army retreated strangely. If this matter is told, no one will believe it, but the facts are in front of us, and it is impossible not to believe it.
"Yunlu, tell me why I was defeated so much? I have an army of 100,000 under my command, and you, even if the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, are probably less than 30,000, right? Why can those women from Liu He stand at the top of the city immediately change our army like this?" Ma came to Ma Yunlu and asked loudly.
But when Ma Yunlu said coldly, "You have done so many unrighteous things that have angered God. God has surrendered you and made you defeat you. What else can you say? Ma, you forced your father to death, it is simply worse than beasts. Today I will kill you and avenge your father!"
After Ma Yunlu finished speaking, he stepped forward and dribbled his gun and grabbed the horse.
Although Ma's martial arts are better than Ma Yunlu, he indirectly killed his father and finally felt guilty and did not take the battle. He took a feint and fled with a move.
Since there is a famous horse under the horse seat, Ma Yunlu couldn't catch up with him at all, so he chased him for a while and had to return in a depressed manner.
Ma and Han Sui led the defeated generals and fled back to Youfufeng in a panic. This time they came with great pleasure and returned with great success. They were proud to win Chang'an, but they did not expect that they would be defeated so easily. The 100,000 army was dispersed. Although they later gathered their troops and calculated that there were still 70,000 to 80,000 people left, the morale of the army was dispersed and their morale decreased, and they had become a group of mobs. It was almost impossible to restore the morale of the army in a short period of time.
Fortunately, Chang'an has few soldiers, so Ma Yunlu dared not pursue them rashly, otherwise they would not be able to even protect these teams.
"Meng Qi, what's going on? Why did we lose this battle so in a daze? Is it really like they said that Liu He is the destiny of heaven, and we can't offend it?"
Han Sui remembered the sudden change in the sky when he was besieging Chang'an last time. He was very nervous. If he was just fighting wits and courage, he would still have some confidence. If it was involved in the favor of God, he would really have no idea. Although the will of God seems illusory, once it is really alive, it is something that cannot be explained.
Ma was also in a state of confusion at this time. For the sake of power, he actually ignored his biological father, but ended up being defeated. Can God arrange all this? Or was the dead father angry and deliberately gave himself such a big defeat to punish himself for his evil deeds that not only did he refuse to save him, but instead killed his father alive?
"This is all Han Sui's proposition and kills my father. Otherwise, he might not have experienced this big defeat. I regret listening to him at the beginning. Otherwise, I would probably be Liu He's guest now, and I'm not going to be a prisoner like now..."
