Chapter 90: Cavalry Battle
According to historical records, Ma Teng's entry into Beijing did not return, which caused a deep hatred between Ma Chao and Cao Cao.
Zhou Yang originally planned to stop all this from happening, at least he could not let Ma Yunlu hate him.
But can he really control the future?
"Just as Zhou Taishou's words!" Ma Teng said decisively.
Zhou Yang never expected that Ma Teng would trust someone so much, and he was very moved.
At the same time, a cavalry hurriedly ran over in the distance and said that the Qin and Hu army were found in front of him.
Ma Teng said: "Previous prefect Zhou is indeed not wrong."
Zhou Yang said strangely: "I have ordered General Li Dian to station troops in Xinping City. Even if Zhi Yuanduo comes to intercept General Ma immediately, he will not be able to arrive in Qinchuan so soon!"
Ma Teng asked calmly: "How many enemies are there?"
The quick horse replied: "I can't see clearly, but I came from all directions, with a huge momentum, maybe tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands."
Ma Teng said: "Try again!"
Ma Xiu said: "Father, I'll inform my elder brother immediately."
Ma Teng asked: "Do you want him to come for support, or don't come for support?"
Ma Xiu glanced at Zhou Yang, but replied: "Of course I came to support me. I don't know how many enemies there are. Besides, why did the enemy come out as soon as Zhou Taishou came?"
Zhou Yang was also puzzled by this and said angrily: "Since the enemy has come in advance, I am willing to live and die with General Ma and never leave."
Ma Xiu said again: "I am not at ease because it's like this. After all, it's hard to guard against internal thieves!"
Zhou Yang finally said angrily: "Leave you and say I brought Qin Hu's army. If you don't leave, you will say that it is hard to defend against the internal thieves. Now I come to help General Ma fight against the thieves together, and become Zhi Yuanduo's accomplice."
Ma Xiu wanted to speak again, but was stopped by Ma Teng and said in a deep voice: "Premier Zhou is an enemy or a friend, and it will be announced soon; Xiu'er doesn't have to run back to Wuwei and call you brother. Just the 6,000 cavalry in our hands, any army in the world must pay a heavy price if they want to fight head-on."
After a while, Ma Tie ran back and said, "My father, everything is ready, just wait for the Qin Hu cavalry to arrive."
Ma Teng snorted coldly: "Just teach Zhiyuan to taste the true power of the Western Liang cavalry!"
Zhou Yang had seen the Western Liang cavalry in Dong Zhuo's hands. His brave combat was the best in the world.
But Ma Teng said this to him. Could it be that Ma Teng's Xiliang cavalry is more powerful than Dong Zhuo's?
When Dong Zhuo was in peace, he fought with the Qiang people all year round. Even worse, he destroyed Xianling Qiang before he became a bloody feud with Peng Yiyuan, Su Chen and others.
But Ma Teng is different. He and Han Sui are friends of the Qiang people. Even if they fight, they are to reach a common agreement and not to the extent of aristocratic hatred.
Some people even have half of the Qiang people's blood in Ma Teng, and they have lived with Qiang people for many years with their father.
This made Zhou Yang very curious and wanted to see how powerful the Xiliang cavalry in Ma Teng was.
Ma Teng slapped his horse back into the military formation, with the left and right horse iron, and the six thousand Xiliang cavalry set up a cone formation, preparing to use their sharp edge to fight the enemy.
Zhou Yang was also riding a Red Rabbit Horse, and the tiger roared the iron spear behind him, but was pushed to the side by intentionally or unintentionally, as if he was saying to him, "Don't rely too close to my father", which made him feel very embarrassed.
At the same time, this was also the first time he was on the battlefield, confronting the enemy head-on.
In the past, Xu Rong, Xu Huang, Le Jin, Li Dian and others were leading troops to fight, and at most he sat in the tent leader and participated in the discussion.
The most intense time when Dong Zhuo attacked Luoyang, he just stood on the city.
The real defeat of Dong Zhuo's army was the joint efforts of Sun Jian and Liu Bei, and the group of generals such as Xu Rong broke up and attacked, and finally forced Dong Zhuo to send Li Su to discuss peace.
Zhou Yang also killed the enemy in the chaos army, but just wanted to fight with Su Chen alongside each other when he was rushing through the two passes, and he was unable to say that he led his troops to fight.
But this time, on the wilderness plain of Qinchuan, we were waiting for the same brave Qin Hu cavalry to come.
Once both parties meet, it will be a result that is about to break out.
This feeling made him excited, and was more influenced by Ma Teng.
Ma Teng sat firmly on the horse, waiting for the arrival of the enemy without changing his face. His tall and majestic figure at this time made the soldiers feel absolutely trustworthy like Mount Tai.
Zhou Yang knew that this was charm.
A true general must have the so-called charm of military personnel, so that soldiers can charge for him and are willing to die on the battlefield for the general.
Ma Teng has such charm. Even Zhou Yang couldn't resist trying to charge forward and kill the enemy, regardless of the significance of this battle.
"Here!" Ma Xiu and Ma Tie said in unison.
I saw the army with no boundaries in the distance, rushing out of the flying dust and slowly surrounding it from all directions.
The opponent's cavalry were scattered and there was no formation.
It seems that they are fighting free guerrilla forms and fighting on their own.
Zhou Yang once heard Xu Rong say that this style of playing requires everyone to have the ability to fight independently, but the team is not strong.
Unlike Ma Teng, who sets up a cone array like he does, all three corners can be used as charge points.
The enemy was getting closer, but Ma Teng remained motionless, his voice was muted and powerful: "Everyone keeps calm."
Zhou Yang was shocked by the enemy's chaotic sound of horse hooves, but Ma Teng's words were like sedatives, making people full of confidence in him.
Until the two sides were only a few hundred meters away, Ma Teng ordered again: "Ma Shu, the horse is iron, lead the two wings to kill each other, and the central army remains unmoved."
Zhou Yang felt very surprised. Could it be that Ma Teng planned to attack the enemy by relying on this road?
With the current situation, this effect is simply impossible. No matter how fast and fast the Western Liang cavalry is, it is impossible to form a siege before the two armies hedge.
Moreover, the only thing that these Qin and Hu cavalry fight with dispersed formation is that they are least afraid of being besieged.
If Ma Teng sticks to the formation, or simply dismounts and attacks with a spear to fight a defensive counterattack, it can kill the enemy's aura.
Zhou Yang was completely unable to understand Ma Teng's combat method, but he also knew that leading troops to fight was his weakness. In addition, his current status was special, so he didn't dare to speak casually.
"The central army is concentrated." Ma Teng ordered his orders and drew his sword. "I believe that the prefect Zhou has nothing to do with the Qin and Hu people. Please follow me to fight!"
"I understand!" Zhou Yang replied.
At this time, the shouts of Qin Hu cavalry were approaching, with only more than 2,000 people, but because of the scattered combat, the lineup seemed to be larger than the 6,000 Xiliang cavalry.
When fighting in plains, we can only rely on soldiers' combat and formation confrontation, and there is no magic trick at all.
As long as either side is at a disadvantage, it is difficult to reverse the situation.
Although Zhou Yang had never really experienced this kind of confrontation between the two armies, he often listened to Xu Rong, Xu Huang and the others in the military camp.
Now the tiger roaring spear in his hand and the long-boiled blood in his body are already ready to move.
"kill!"
With Ma Teng's decisive shout, the Xiliang cavalry began to start slowly, gradually speeded up, and prepared to fight with the Qin Hu cavalry as a collision.
But Ma Teng's order just now was to "concentrate the central army", so the entire Xiliang cavalry was like a long snake, cutting into the middle of the enemy army.
Such a result will only be surrounded by the enemy left and right, while Ma Xiu and Ma Tie's left and right wings will not work at all.
Finally, the second when Zhou Yang's ears stopped instantly, the blood dyed the entire sky red.
Everything in front of me was rendered with a layer of blood red, and my mind was blank.
No thoughts, no unnecessary thoughts.
Only the tiger roaring spear that kept drilling into the flesh and blood could make Zhou Yang feel that there were living human walls falling one by one in front of him.
I had no feeling of how many swords I had been cut on my body.
There is no pain in real battle, only loneliness.
Apart from fighting constantly until you fall down, you can't see the end.
Zhou Yang's eyes were already covered with red silk and blood, but he could feel the tiger's roaring iron spear exuding infinite power like a living creature shaking his spirit.
Suddenly, a cannon sounded from left to right.
The scattered Qin Hu army began to retreat, and the flesh and blood in front of Zhou Yang was gradually becoming clearer.
What exactly happened?
While breathing, the Xiliang cavalry, which had always maintained its formation, also stopped.
Each cavalry was like a devil emerging from hell, looking at the Qin Hu cavalry who was leaving without expression.
At some point, Ma Teng returned to Zhou Yang's side, but the armor on his shoulder was split in half at this time.
Zhou Yang said in surprise: "General Ma is injured?"
Ma Teng tore off his battle suit, revealing a deep trench-like blood mark, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that the prefect Zhou is right. Whether it is our whereabouts, fighting style, or the quality of soldiers, they are all within the absolute control of the enemy."
Zhou Yang said: "According to the information, Zhiyuanduo should not fight us head-on. At most, it is just to fight guerrilla warfare to attract the support of General Ma Chao."
Ma Teng snorted coldly: "If this army was really a Qin Hu people, it would not have fought with us head-on."
Zhou Yang was shocked and immediately guessed what he said. He couldn't help asking: "General Ma said that this cavalry is not a Qin Hu cavalry?"
Ma Teng said: "No one knows Han Sui better than me, nor does he know me better than Han Sui."
Zhou Yang said in surprise: "General Ma said that these cavalry were just pretended by Han Sui, but why did he do this?"
Ma Teng did not answer directly. Maybe he himself didn't know the reason, but continued to give his order: "Back."
As the snake-like cavalry of Xiliang retreated, the enemies ahead rushed over again.
But Ma Teng did not re-emphasize his life to fight, but continued to let everyone back down.
The two thousand Western Liang cavalry led by Ma Xiu came from the west, replaced Ma Teng's vanguard, and began to fight against the enemy pretending to be Qin Hu cavalry.
Ma Teng's army was able to breathe, and Zhou Yang finally understood this way of fighting.
But anyone knows that the people who know this kind of combat method best are Ma Teng and Han Sui. It seems that Han Sui not only intends to swallow Ma Teng's territory, but also intends to wipe out all of them.
