Chapter 72 The father is not kind, the son is not filial
"Report to Marshal, Chief of Staff! Traces of the Ma Jia Army have been found. Currently, there are about 40,000 Ma Jia Army. They are 60 kilometers north of Ma Qin. They are expected to arrive in Ma Qin around four o'clock this afternoon!" the scout reported back to Ma Qin.
.
"Yes! We understand. You can go down first!" Cai Yun waved his hand. The scout saluted and left the military tent.
"Chief of Staff, it seems the war is about to begin! Where is the Fourth Brigade now?" Wang Yuze asked.
"The fourth brigade will arrive tomorrow. However, I don't think it is necessary for them to join us from the beginning. They can serve as a surprise force and attack at the most critical moment to defeat the enemy!" Cai Yun said
.
"Yeah! I think so too. When our Ma Jiajun is exhausted, the troops of the fourth brigade will fight out from the rear of the Ma Jiajun, and we should be able to seal the victory!" Wang Yuze also said.
"Order all troops to enter the city! Although the wall of Maqin City is not high, the Ma Jia Army has no cannons and cannot break through. In terms of our firepower, they cannot attack the city at all. If they continue to stay outside the city, the Ma Jia Army will
If there is a sneak attack at night, we will not be able to defend ourselves!" Cai Yun said. Although he should have full control over the battle against the Ma Jiajun this time. But many times, Cai Yun will still ask Wang Yuze for advice, which can be regarded as his approval.
Wang Yuze’s identity as a young marshal!
"Let's enter the city! Night fighting is our weakness. There is no need to use our own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strong points." Wang Yuze nodded. At night, the firepower of the Western Sichuan Army cannot be fully utilized, which is very dangerous when the troops are at a disadvantage.
The disadvantage is that the collapsed west wall of Maqin City has been repaired. Although it is not very strong, it is enough to provide protection for the Western Sichuan Army at night.
Soldiers from the 10th and 11th brigades of the Western Sichuan Army entered Maqin City in an orderly manner. Although many houses were destroyed, the streets have been cleared and traffic will not be affected. There are not enough houses to live in, so the soldiers can
Living in a tent also doesn’t mean sleeping outdoors.
A little after four o'clock in the afternoon, a rumbling thunderous sound came from the north of Maqin City. This was the sound produced by the sound of the hoofbeats of the horses' hooves coming together as a large group of cavalry galloped on the grassland.
Wang Yuze, Cai Yun, and the generals of the 10th and 11th Brigades of Western Sichuan came to the city wall to the north of Maqin City. At this time, rows of heavy machine guns and mortars had been set up on the city wall. If
If the Ma Jiajun took the risk to attack the city, they would undoubtedly suffer a bloody blow in the face of the powerful firepower of the Western Sichuan Army.
When tens of thousands of people gather together, it can give people the feeling of a sea of people. Now about 40,000 horsemen of the Ma Jiajun have gathered under Maqin City, directly forming a black ocean. The flags are like a forest, and the sabers are like snow. It is very
It was spectacular, and at the same time, it made the atmosphere before the war more and more depressing, almost making people breathless. Anyone facing tens of thousands of enemies would probably feel this way.
"If the Western Sichuan Army in the city is not a coward, come and fight with us!" A loud voice sounded from the Ma Jiajun team. Then, the Ma Jiajun soldiers shouted one after another. Suddenly, an overwhelming momentum formed.
.
Everyone in the Western Sichuan Army changed their colors, and there was even some commotion.
"Fire!" Cai Yun ordered immediately after seeing this.
The 10th Brigade of the Western Sichuan Army built an artillery position in Maqin City. A total of 32 Type 82 infantry cannons were placed, and the shelling immediately began. Amidst the sound of shelling, one shell after another roared towards the people outside the city.
Ma Jiajun. Amidst the violent explosions, Ma Jiajun soldiers were thrown off their horses one by one, and the flying shrapnel reaped life. The arrogant Ma Jiajun cried for their fathers and retreated one after another.
Suddenly, the pressure caused by the Ma Jiajun was swept away, and the soldiers of the Western Sichuan Army in the city burst out laughing. What's the use of having more people? Aren't we just like chickens and dogs in front of our Western Sichuan Army?
The Ma Jiajun soldiers had withdrawn from the artillery firing range of the Western Sichuan Army, and the commotion stopped. At this time, a road separated from the Ma Jiajun cavalry, and more than a dozen people rode out from it. The leader was surprisingly captured by the Western Sichuan Army in the Dongqing ditch.
Ma Haiyan, whose army was defeated. At this time, Ma Haiyan was no longer depressed as before, and looked in high spirits. Although his hair and beard were gray, he looked very majestic. On both sides of him, Ma Guoliang
and Ma Fulu, two juniors. Behind the three are the senior generals of the Ma Jiajun.
"Listen to me, the Western Sichuan Army across the way. You wantonly attacked our Qinghai and slaughtered the people under our Ma Jiajun rule. You really deserve death. Exit Maqin City and Qinghai immediately, otherwise I will march tens of thousands of Ma Jiajun soldiers.
Pingma Qin City, kill you all!" Ma Haiyan shouted angrily. In line with his voice, the tens of thousands of Ma Jiajun soldiers behind him all shouted for kill, with an astonishing momentum.
"Hmph! Ma Haiyan, stop talking so much nonsense. If you have the guts, just attack the city! I want to see how many people from your Ma family army come to die!" Cai Yun also responded. However, although his voice was not very loud,
, but after it was transmitted through a simple speaker, Ma Jiajun on the other side could hear it clearly.
"Cowards, if you are men, go out of the city and fight us in an upright manner!" Ma Haiyan shouted again. For an old man in his sixties, it was indeed a bit difficult for him to shout so loudly.
"Of course we will leave the city to fight, but not now. Don't worry, I won't let you wait!" Cai Yun responded.
"That's not right, Lao Zhou, why do you see a person on the city wall who looks so familiar? It seems to be the eldest young master!" Gu Hongqiang suddenly said in surprise.
"What? Let me take a look!" Zhou He quickly took the telescope and looked towards the city. He immediately spotted Ma Qi standing next to Cai Yun. Although Ma Qi had already cut off his braid and put on the military uniform of the Western Sichuan Army
, but the appearance will not change.
"What's going on? Why did the eldest young master put on the uniform of the Western Sichuan Army? Did he join the Western Sichuan Army?" Zhou He said in shock. He couldn't believe this fact at all. As the successor of the Qingma Army,
The latter's Ma Qi actually became a member of the Western Sichuan Army.
The conversation between Gu Hongqiang and Zhou He attracted the attention of Ma Guoliang and Ma Fulu, who also used their telescopes to carefully observe the top of Maqin City. Sure enough, they easily saw Cai Yun standing next to him.
Ma Qi. Their expressions were a bit unsightly.
"Uncle, look at the city wall, who is that there?" Ma Guoliang pointed at the city wall and said to Ma Haiyan.
"What's wrong?" Ma Haiyan looked at the telescope in confusion. Elderly people have a little blurred vision. However, when Ma Qi's face appeared in his eyes, Ma Haiyan was stunned.
"Ma Qi, why are you there? Are you wearing the clothes of the Western Sichuan Army? Where are your braids? Did they force you?" Ma Haiyan asked angrily.
"Father, please wake up. The Manchu Qing Dynasty is declining, and the future world belongs to Western Sichuan. The Ma Jiajun will eventually be wiped out if they separatize one side. I am now the commander of the 11th Brigade of the Western Sichuan Army. I
I advise my father to return to Western Sichuan with me!" Ma Qi said loudly. Since there is no turning back, it is better to use this opportunity to show his focus to Western Sichuan. Therefore, Ma Qi stood on the city wall unabashedly.
Facing Ma Jiajun calmly.
"What? The eldest young man of the Qing Ma Army has defected to the Western Sichuan Army?" The Ma's Army outside the city suddenly became noisy. The eldest young man of the Qing Ma Army has defected to the Western Sichuan Army. This is nothing short of shocking news!
Both Ma Guoliang and Ma Fulu looked a little ugly. The three Ma Jiajun families were in the same boat, and now the heir of the Qingma Army actually defected to the Western Sichuan Army. What a deal!
"You traitor, you dare to betray the imperial court and consider a thief as your father. I don't have a son like you, so I will kill you!" Ma Haiyan was furious.
"Hmph! Father, the poison of tigers can't even eat its seeds! After I was caught by the Western Sichuan Army, you didn't care about it? Is this what a father should do? Now I can see it clearly. Ma Jiajun simply doesn't care.
There is no hope, only by joining Western Sichuan can we have a future!" Ma Qi said loudly.
