Chapter 442: Seemingly Invincible, Wei Army is Defeated(1/2)
The situation on the battlefield is always ever-changing, Jiang Wei understood this.
But he couldn't understand why the military morale of thousands of Qiang and Di soldiers immediately became turbulent the moment Ma Chao appeared.
Judging from the various response strategies Jiang Wei made after hearing that Ma Chao led his army into Wudu, Jiang Wei is indeed smart.
Including his decisive attack strategy after encountering the Liangzhou Army today, it can also be seen that Jiang Wei's judgment of the situation is accurate.
It's just that Jiang Wei, who is as bold as a fighter, has forgotten that not everyone in the world is as bold as him.
During the period when Ma Chao led the army across Guanzhong, Jiang Wei mostly heard about Ma Chao's heroic deeds. Learning about Ma Chao's deeds from other people's narratives inevitably made Jiang Wei feel that Ma Chao's deeds were exaggerated.
But the thousands of Qiang and Di people were different. Once upon a time, they were all summoned by Ma Chao to join his "Army to Defeat Cao."
Who among the Qiang and Di people in Guanxi has never seen Ma Chao's bravery?
It doesn't matter if Cao Cao can't compete with him, and it doesn't matter if Wei's army is hard to match. They have all been defeated and escaped due to Ma Chao's bravery.
"If the horse doesn't die, I won't have a burial place."
"Hold Erhua from occupying the Hewei River, drive the Qiang and Hu, and march eastwards with high energy and ambition, seemingly invincible."
"Super trustworthy and brave, Bu is very popular with Qiang and Hu Xin, and Xizhou is afraid of them."
"The Di and the Qiang lead the people in submission, and the Mao worship the righteousness. They believe in the Northern Territory, and they are mighty and powerful."
...
Comments were made by either Ma Chao's enemies or Ma Chao's allies, but no matter who made comments about Ma Chao, they could not avoid talking about Ma Chao's reputation in Kansai.
These people who evaluate Ma Chao are all heroes of the world. Could their evaluation be wrong?
It’s unmistakable, Ma Chao quickly proved it with his strength.
After sweeping away the several Wei soldiers blocking him, Ma Chao did not stop his movements.
Ma Chao continued to drive his horse forward, although because the area he was in was the core of the battle between the two armies, he could not fully utilize the mobility of his horse.
But this did not give Ma Chao any hesitation.
If there is no space around you, clear out a space yourself.
Ma Chao thought so and did so.
It's not that the Wei army, under the command of Jiang Wei, wanted to use their spears to block Ma Chao's advance.
But before the spears in the hands of the Wei soldiers could touch Ma Chao, they were already severely knocked away by the spears in Ma Chao's hands.
As a world-famous cavalry commander at that time, Ma Chao's weapon was modified from the Ma Chao. It was longer and heavier than the standard spear in the army.
Such a weapon places great demands on the strength of the user, and even an average powerful person usually cannot use such a weapon for too long.
But now it’s Ma Chao who’s using it!
Although heavier and longer spears place great demands on the user, if the user can perfectly meet these requirements, then this original shackle will be transformed into a huge advantage for the user on the battlefield.
Because the power exerted by such a spear on the battlefield is by no means comparable to that of ordinary weapons.
Many Wei soldiers quickly proved this with their own flesh and blood.
Whether they were lieutenant generals wearing iron armor or ordinary soldiers wrapped in cloth armor, the moment their bodies were hit by the spear in Ma Chao's hand, a huge bloody hole would be left on their bodies.
I don't know if Ma Chao wanted to deliberately deepen the fear in Wei Jun's heart. He did not use the conventional spear to kill the enemy. He almost used the spear in his hand as a long knife.
How is the long knife used?
Just sweeping and slashing.
As Ma Chao continued to advance, it was no longer the Wei soldiers who fell one by one, but several Wei soldiers who were swept away by the spear in Ma Chao's hand.
Moreover, many Wei soldiers had their heads cut off by the double-edged spear in Ma Chao's hand.
So after Ma Chao entered the forest of gunfire between the two armies, a frightening scene continued to unfold.
The blood of many Wei soldiers was mixed with flesh foam, forming a frightening blood mist that was constantly floating in front of the two armies.
In the center of the large blood mist, a large vacuum area was quickly artificially formed.
The person who caused this frightening blood mist was not an elite army, but a tiger general with white hair and a majestic body.
In front of the tiger general is a hill piled up with corpses of Wei soldiers.
The bloody smell was so thick that it was almost indistinguishable, like waves of poisonous mist that kept drifting into Wei Jun's nose, and turned into a trace of fear that began to haunt Wei Jun's heart.
At this moment, where is the Wei army around the Shenwei Tian general?
At this moment, which Wei army is not afraid of Ma Chao's bravery?
Such bravery cannot be achieved by mortal generals. Only heavenly generals can do it.
What does it mean to be "seemingly invincible wherever the sharp edge reaches"? This is it!
Until the end, any Wei Jun look at Ma Chao was full of fear.
When Jiang Wei saw this, he immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.
He misjudged Ma Chao's bravery from the beginning.
When the legend turned into reality before his eyes, Jiang Wei was shocked no less than an ordinary soldier.
But Jiang Wei also knew that Ma Chao's ability to suppress the entire Wei army's formation was due to more than just his own strength.
After Ma Chao appeared in front of the two armies, the Qiang and Di soldiers, who accounted for the majority of the Wei army, began to retreat intentionally.
After all, no matter how high Ma Chao's prestige was among the Qiang and Di people, it would be an exaggeration to say that his prestige alone could directly scare away thousands of Qiang and Di people.
However, what Ma Chao wanted was not to achieve this effect. What he wanted was to use his personal prestige among the Qiang and Di people to disturb their military morale to the greatest extent and gradually lose their fighting spirit.
This would directly cut off Jiang Wei's major support.
Regarding the retreat of the Qiang and Di people, Jiang Wei could not stop it even with the support of the powerful.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Even the Qiang and Di people's retreat was acquiesced by the strong end.
The foreign races in this world are all afraid of those who are powerful and despise virtue. It is extremely difficult to make them grateful.
But once they are afraid of something or someone, this fear may remain in their hearts for a lifetime and interfere with their fighting spirit to a great extent.
After most of the Qiang and Di people had no intention of fighting, the only thing Jiang Wei could rely on was his own three thousand Wei troops.
But don't forget, there are thousands of Liangzhou troops on the opposite side constantly entangled with the Wei army led by him.
Therefore, the current battlefield situation has evolved into three thousand Liangzhou troops led by Ma Chao and three thousand Wei troops led by Jiang Wei, fighting continuously on the battlefield.
When the apparent strength becomes equal, the effect of the combination of the world's strongest army and the world's tiger is unimaginable to ordinary people.
Anyway, it is enough to defeat the current Wei army under Jiang Wei.
It was precisely because Jiang Wei realized this that he felt anxious.
According to the development of this situation on the battlefield, the Wei army will eventually be defeated.
Under the anxiety in his heart, the bold Jiang Wei's first thought was not to retreat. Under the surprised eyes of the powerful leader, he jumped out of the Wei army's array with a spear and a horse, and jumped directly to Ma Chao's side.
In front of the battle.
Ma Chao was about to go all out, and with his current peak momentum, he broke through the Wei army's front array in one fell swoop.
Unexpectedly, just as he was riding his horse forward, a young general jumped out from the Wei army's formation, raised his spear and leaped on his horse, shouting at him:
"Ma Chao, you see Tianshui Jiang Weihu!"
Jiang Wei's shouting suddenly attracted Ma Chao's full attention.
Ma Chao was stunned for a moment by Jiang Wei's sudden appearance.
Because for a long time, no one dared to be alone with him in front of him.
It’s true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers!
But after Ma Chao was stunned for a moment, a cold look immediately appeared on his face, and he drove the horse under his crotch and rushed towards Jiang Wei in front of him.
The surrounding space has been cleared by Ma Chao, and now he can use some of the speed of his horse.
However, Jiang Wei was not at all afraid of Ma Chao's charge.
He raised the spear in his hand, and just when Ma Chao's spear was about to touch his heart, he blocked Ma Chao's powerful and heavy blow.
Although he blocked Ma Chao's fatal blow, Ma Chao's strength was too great. Under Ma Chao's impact, Jiang Wei, who was sitting on the horse, became unstable and was about to fall off the horse.
Fortunately, Jiang Wei didn't let this happen with his superb riding skills.
But the sharp pain from the tiger's mouth in his hand still made Jiang Wei's brows furrow.
After Ma Chao failed to hit the target, he immediately turned around on his horse and faced Jiang Wei again.
Jiang Wei was able to block his blow, which made Ma Chao think more highly of Jiang Wei.
Now in the eyes of Ma Chao, Jiang Wei is worthy of the reputation of being both civil and military.
So Ma Chao immediately drove his horse and charged towards Jiang Wei again.
After personally testing Ma Chao's strength, Jiang Wei's brows furrowed even more when facing Ma Chao's charge again, but he showed no sign of fear.
Firstly, Jiang Wei's temperament is like this, and secondly, he knows that if he escapes now because he is afraid of Ma Chao, not to mention that the Wei army behind him will be defeated, I am afraid that he himself will die here.
