"General, don't pursue the poor enemy. Although the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry suffered a lot of losses, they still have strength..."
A few miles away from Xuanwei City, Ma Chao was leading less than two thousand cavalry in pursuit of Cao Hong. Beside Ma Chao, Pang De said with a worried look.
"You stay to reorganize your troops and come back later. You must not let Cao Hong escape." Ma Chao glared at Cao Hong with red eyes, and then nodded. Although he was extremely angry in his heart, he still had a trace of reason. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry
Not easy to deal with.
"General, be careful, the last general will arrive soon."
Pang De hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement. Even though he had just rushed back, he knew that the situation in Xuanwei City was extremely bad.
As he spoke, Pang Deji turned his horse's head and headed towards Xuanwei City.
Outside Xuanwei City, thousands of abandoned tigers and leopards had been killed. The land stretching for several miles outside Xuanwei City was dyed brown with blood, and countless broken limbs were scattered on the battlefield.
, the war horses that had lost their masters stood there restlessly pawing their hooves.
The Feilong Guard and Feihu Guard have also regrouped beside the battlefield, and the Liangzhou soldiers and horses scattered on the battlefield have gradually gathered under Ma Dai's organization.
Worried about Ma Chao, who chased him out alone, Ma Dai did not dare to stop for a moment, and immediately led his troops to Zhao Yun.
"Thank you, General Zhao, for your help. Now that the Major General is chasing the enemy alone, the future is unclear, so I would like to ask the two generals for help."
"It doesn't matter, the military adviser has already made a plan. Cao Hong and the tiger and leopard cavalry can't get out of Liangzhou." Zhao Yun smiled and said, the biggest possibility for Cao Hong to lose in this battle was to flee to Wuwei City and join forces with Han Sui to defend the city.
At this time, Fazheng and others should have occupied Wuwei City, and Cao Hong's going there would be tantamount to throwing himself into a trap.
Although he didn't know why Zhao Yun was so confident, Ma Dai didn't dare to be careless at all: "The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are strong. Although they lost this battle, they still have some strength. If they are allowed to escape, they will find another opportunity.
It’s a bit difficult, so I’d like to ask the two generals to help the young general.”
"Well, General Ma is right. Although Cao Hong is no match for the military advisor, we cannot let him go carelessly. We will follow closely behind him and pursue him in tandem."
After taking a look at Wang Yi and seeing that Wang Yi had no objection, they immediately led their cavalry and chased after him.
Ma Dai left hundreds of people to guard Xuanwei City, and he led the remaining thousands of people to pursue him. Zhao Yun was not dissatisfied with Ma Dai's actions. Liangzhou will be the land of Jingzhou sooner or later. As for when he can take over the power
In Liangzhou, it still depends on the wishes of Ma Chao and the military advisor, so we can't act too hastily.
"It's General Pang." They had just walked not far away when they saw a fast horse coming in front of them. When they looked closely, they saw that it was Pang De.
"General Pang, what's wrong with the young general?" Seeing Pang De approaching, Ma Dai hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"The Major General only led less than 2,000 men to pursue Cao Hong. I was afraid that the Major General might make a mistake, so I came back to dispatch reinforcements." Pang De cupped his hands and said without politeness: "Since you are all here, I will catch up quickly and capture those people."
The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry will catch them all in one fell swoop.”
Everyone nodded and sped up to catch up.
……………………………………………………………………
In Wuwei City, Jingzhou soldiers and horses had completely wiped out the remaining soldiers and horses in the city. Teams of soldiers and horses were mobilized back and forth to consolidate the defense of Wuwei City.
"General, military advisor, and Ma Teng fought against the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry outside Xuanwei City. Although Ma Chao arrived, Ma Teng still died. Now Feilong Guard and Feihu Guard are joining forces with Ma Chao to encircle the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry have been defeated.
Lu, please ask the military advisor to make a decision as soon as possible."
"Oh, so fast?" On the city tower, Fazheng and Zhang Zha both looked shocked and speechless. How could the world-famous Tiger and Leopard Cavalry be defeated like this in such a short period of time?
"In order to avenge his father, Ma Chao and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were both injured. His 10,000 cavalrymen were reduced to less than 5,000."
"Hiss!" Fazheng and Zhangzha even took a breath of cold air. This Ma Chao was so fierce. No wonder even the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry suffered a loss.
After being tossed around like this by Ma Chao, and with the support from the Flying Dragon Guard and the Flying Tiger Guard, how could the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry remain invincible?
"Do you know the casualties of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry?" He opened his jaw and looked at the scout in silence for a moment and asked.
"The war was not over when my subordinates left. I think there will be news back soon."
While several people were talking, a scout rushed over: "Report to General, nearly half of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were killed and wounded. Cao Hong led the remaining Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to come to Wuwei City."
"More than half of the damage?" Fazheng and Zhang Jiahe both expressed surprise. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is Cao Cao's trump card and his most elite troops. The more casualties the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry have, the more beneficial it will be for Jingzhou.
.
"Military advisor, I want to take a chance. I wonder what the advisor thinks?"
His eyes flickered with his jaw open, and he suddenly gritted his teeth and faced Fa Zhengdao. Although he was entrusted with important tasks by Liu Qi when he first arrived in Jingzhou, after all, taking up important positions in Wuji has caused dissatisfaction among some people. The reason why no one came out to accuse him is
Because Liu Qi's prestige is too high, if he has no merit in this battle, he will definitely arouse dissatisfaction from some people, and may even implicate the Jizhou generals who came with them.
"Oh, I wonder what the general wants?" Fazheng frowned. Although he also wanted to make meritorious deeds, he had to act cautiously.
He waved the scouts to retreat, opened his jaw and whispered to Fa Zheng: "I will lead Cao Hong into the city, set up an ambush in the city, and wipe out Cao Hong's tiger and leopard cavalry here."
"What?" Fazheng was shocked. If the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry rushed into the city, how could they be blocked by the soldiers and horses in the city. However, thinking of the crossbows that were delivered together, Fazheng hesitated a little.
However, compared to the original plan, this plan was undoubtedly a bit risky. Originally, their plan was to pursue Zhao Yun and others, but they instead stayed in the front to defend the city and stop the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
Coupled with the Flying Tiger Army that followed, some important cities in Liangzhou did not have to worry about the threat of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. In just two days, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry without food and grass would definitely be defeated.
Although it may not be possible to kill Cao Hong, it can still be regarded as a great achievement. Therefore, Fazheng was a little hesitant about the idea of opening his jaw.
"Military advisor, if Hubaoqi is defeated this time, Zilong and others will definitely pursue him. With Ma Chao's character, he will definitely fight to the death with Hubaoqi. We only need to block Hubaoqi near the city gate, and wait for Zilong
Once the people arrive, the tiger and leopard cavalry will be unable to fly without their wings." He opened his jaw and said with gleaming eyes.
Fazheng waved his hand to interrupt the opening of his jaw. Fazheng frowned and his thoughts changed rapidly. After a while, he finally said: "Okay, just do as the general said. However, just in case, outside of this door, the other doors are closed."
If we want to block it, even if we can't stop the tiger and leopard knight, we will still let the tiger and leopard knight die here."
Zhang Jaw's heart trembled. If he blocked the other gates, wouldn't he block them in the city as well? This method is really ruthless. However, thinking of the power of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, Zhang Jaw did not dare to take risks and nodded.
Turn around and go to arrange it.
"For your information, General, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are still half an hour away from here."
"General, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are still a quarter of an hour away."
……………………
On top of the city tower, Fazheng and Zhang Jia arranged the soldiers and horses in the city behind the west gate, and then sat on the city tower waiting for news about the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
"Here we come." Feeling the slight trembling of the city wall beneath him, he opened his jaw and opened his eyes suddenly, revealing his murderous intent.
"Yeah." Fazheng also nodded.
Immediately, the city gate opened, and two young generals dressed as Cao soldiers quickly left the city and headed towards the direction where the sound came from.
In the distance, Cao Hong was leading more than 10,000 tiger and leopard knights in a gallop. A few miles after he got up, another group of cavalry was chasing after him.
"General, Wuwei City is ahead of us. As long as we enter Wuwei City, everything will be fine." Beside Cao Hong, a deputy general looked at Wuwei City in the distance and said with joy.
"Yes." Looking at the approaching Wuwei City, Cao Hong also breathed a sigh of relief, but his face was still as gloomy as water. More than half of the tiger and leopard cavalry were lost, which can be considered a heavy loss.
Although Ma Teng was killed and Han Sui was forced to land, nearly half of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were lost, which really made Cao Hong's heart bleed. He was one of the closest people to Cao Cao and one of the top leaders of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
Since Xu Chu's death, he can be said to be the only one among the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
He is very clear about the harsh training of tiger and leopard cavalry. Cao Cao now has many soldiers and horses, but he only has less than 50,000 tiger and leopard cavalry. This time, he lost nearly 10,000 people. It can be imagined that after returning to Xudu
, what kind of criticism he will receive.
Looking back, he glanced coldly at Ma Chao, who was chasing after him. Cao Hong smiled coldly in his heart, as long as today passed, he would cut this Ma Chao into pieces.
"Speed up and rush to Wuwei."
Taking a breath, Cao Hong ordered that the most important thing now is to protect the more than 10,000 tiger and leopard knights behind him. If even these 10,000 people are lost, it will definitely be a significant impact on Cao Cao's strength.
blow.
"No." The order was issued immediately, and the speed of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry suddenly increased a lot.
"Damn it, speed up and intercept them. I won't let them escape into Wuwei City." Ma Chao was extremely angry. Although the horses in Liangzhou were excellent, the horses ridden by the tiger and leopard were equally excellent, and even faintly surpassed theirs.
The horses were better, so although they kept chasing along the way, they could only watch the tigers and leopards galloping in front of them.
A few miles behind Ma Chao, Feilongwei and Feihuwei were running equally fast.
"General Zhao, this is not far from Wuwei City. Cao Hong is very likely to escape into Wuwei City. We must stop him before he enters Wuwei City."
Ma Dai said anxiously to Zhao Yun that he didn't care about Han Sui's troops and horses in Wuwei City. What he cared about was that the tiger and leopard cavalry fled into the city and defended the city. Then their pursuit would be in vain.
Ma Teng's revenge is also difficult to avenge.
"Speed up." Zhao Yun ordered with a flash of his eyes.
Wuwei City has fallen into the hands of Jingzhou, Zhao Yun has no intention of telling Ma Dai, and he also wants to severely damage the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry again under Wuwei City.
If they want to enter Wuwei City, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry will definitely have a short pause outside Wuwei City. This pause is when the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry will be severely damaged.
Following Zhao Yun's order, the speed of Feilong Guard and Feihu Guard suddenly increased a lot, and they galloped towards Wuwei City.
