Chapter 726: A Great War Is Inevitable
Zhao Yun said slowly: "I didn't mean to target you, this general, I just made sense! In addition to Yongliang, there are thirty-six countries in the Western Regions. The big man is dying, and his control over the countries in the Western Regions has obviously weakened. In the future, there will be wars."
"If you make corrections at this time, it may be too late, but if you remain silent in Xiliang Xiaoqi's humble self-confidence, then you will always be an enhanced version of the sharp knife battalion, not a real commander, a general who can guard one side! "
"On this point, from the fact that His Highness sent this commander here to support you, you should be able to feel that when Yangping Pass is captured, our two armies will definitely attack Shuzhong in two ways, and we will know when the time comes."
"Zhao Yun, don't think that just because you are one of the five marshals, you can teach this general. We have no direct subordinate relationship!"
Ma Chao was so angry that he exploded on the spot, and responded angrily.
Zhao Yun was not angry at all, just smiled lightly, reined in his horse and moved forward slowly: "Let's go! Yangping Pass is broken!"
Looking at Zhao Yun's breezy back, Ma Chao gritted his steel teeth, furious.
Pang Tong took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly: "Meng Qi, don't blame me for talking too much. If it weren't for your soldiers and horses being the closest to Hanzhong, you can provide effective support, and you may be able to attack Xichuan. You don't need Xiliang Xiaoqi at all."
Ma Chao was stunned: "Military Master, why..."
Pang Tong took a sip of his wine: "Meng Qi, Yongliang will face a big battle sooner or later, listen to Zilong's persuasion, with your ability, it is not impossible to be promoted to marshal, otherwise you will only be a member of the twelve tigers for the rest of your life."
After finishing speaking, Pang Tong pinched the horse's belly with one leg, and the horse moved forward slowly: "Zilong, wait for me."
Ma Chao frowned!
In fact, after this battle, he also realized this problem.
Although Xiliang Xiaoqi is powerful, but its limitations are too strong. It is not good at attacking fortifications, not good at mountainous terrain, not good at water combat, even in infantry combat, it is not as good as real infantry.
yes!
As Zhao Yun said, his Xiliang Xiaoqi is at best an enhanced version of the Sharp Sword Battalion!
However, for Night Breeze, who already has the Sharp Knife Battalion, he doesn't need the enhanced version, what he needs is the real commander-in-chief!
At this moment, Ma Chao suddenly remembered the conversation between Jia Xu and himself.
"Meng Qi, what we have to face in the future may not be as simple as Qiang Hu."
"Wenhe, what do you mean?"
"Your Highness wants to reopen the Silk Road, but although the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions are still states in name, they have not paid tribute for many years. In their eyes, there is no big man like us. Your Highness will be in power in the future. These problems will have to be faced sooner or later. "
"Thirty-six countries in the Western Regions? With me Xiliang Xiaoqi here, why be afraid of it!"
At that time, Jia Xu just smiled lightly and didn't respond.
At this moment, Ma Chao finally understood that the faint smile was not a compliment, but had a different meaning.
Ma Chao clenched his fists and looked towards the direction of Yangping Pass, muttering in his heart: "Damn it! I, Ma Chao, will never let His Highness down!"
drive!
Urging the war horse, Ma Chao followed slowly and entered Yangping Pass.
Let's say that Wu Lan led the army to fight and retreat, and gradually left Yangping Pass.
But he was bitten to death by Ma Dai and Pei Yuanshao.
Wu Lan gritted her teeth and irritated her feet, beckoning and ordering: "Brothers, go into the mountains!"
Old routine!
How could Ma Dai and Pei Yuanshao give up this easy-to-get military exploit? They didn't think about it at all, and immediately greeted: "Chasing!"
The army rushed into the forest and disappeared immediately.
Ma Dai and Pei Yuanshao were shocked. The mountains and forests were not only rugged, but also had a steep slope. It was too difficult to attack and pursue, and it was easy to be killed by others!
But at this moment.
Suddenly an elite army appeared in the forest, it was the Tiger Roaring Battalion led by Wei Yan.
As soon as this group of people appeared, they immediately attracted the attention of Ma Dai and Pei Yuanshao.
They walked like flying, wading through mountains and rivers, like walking on flat ground, slashing left and right with steel knives in their palms, cutting off all the vines in front of them.
That speed is much worse than their infantry on the plains!
Ma Dai's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes widened for a moment: "This...is it impossible, the speed is so fast?"
Pei Yuanshao was also in a daze, but he was relieved immediately, and he let out a long breath: "The Tiger Roaring Camp really deserves to be the Tiger Roaring Camp, we have nothing to do this time, just wait and see."
In the jungle, a voice came out: "Tiger roars in the mountains and forests, hunt and kill freely!"
Although Ma Dai and Pei Yuanshao didn't understand what this meant, they could be sure that this was a method of warfare used by their Tiger Roaring Camp.
Mountain warfare is different from plain warfare.
It is impossible for ordinary tactics to be effective. This set of tactics was summed up by Wei Yan when he faced Shanyue.
For the kind of bandits who have been entrenched in the mountains all year round, they have a strong hunting effect, not to mention these Shu troops who just smelled into the mountains temporarily.
Not for a while.
There were wailing sounds in the forest.
Tiger roars in the forest!
Free hunting!
Compared with Shanyue, which is entrenched in Jiangdong, this group of Shu army is in fact completely incomparable.
One is the bandits entrenched in the mountains and fighting against the government and army all the year round. They are familiar with the mountains and can even hear the breathing of the mountains.
Wei Yan's Tiger Roaring Battalion really needed to put in a lot of effort to deal with this group of people. Once upon a time, the Tiger Roaring Battalion's battle damage even reached half. Later, through continuous accumulation of experience, the battle situation was gradually turned around.
But now?
This group of people experienced a defeat first, and their will to fight was completely destroyed.
To put it bluntly, this is a group of defeated troops who lost their souls and fled in despair.
Even if they fled into the mountains while taking advantage of the chaos, there was no organization and discipline, and they fled in all directions.
Free hunting!
It's a massacre to eliminate such a group of rogues!
Every three people in the Tiger Roaring Battalion formed a team nearby, and massacred the scattered and fleeing thieves!
Even if there are fifteen or sixteen people on the other side, they have nothing to fear.
After all, this group of Tiger Roaring Battalion are all well-trained super soldiers. Danyang elite soldiers are the top infantry soldiers in the world.
Whoosh!
scoff!
A group of Shu soldiers rushed into the forest, ran for two miles, and finally couldn't stand it any longer.
They were either sitting on the ground, or leaning against a tree, or leaning on each other, panting heavily.
"This group of people... is... really amazing. I've never... never seen this kind of ladder."
"Wouldn't the car crashing be more...more powerful? We filled the city gate with stones, so we smashed into pieces?"
"Fortunately, we escaped quickly, otherwise we would all die there!"
"This time the thieves are too well prepared, I...I faintly...have a vague feeling of uneasiness, maybe they have prepared an ambush in the mountains and forests!"
