Chapter 1006 Thoughts Outside the Siege

Zhang Yang looked down from the deep city wall with a gloomy face, and the bodies of dozens of Ma soldiers lay horizontally at the foot of the city. The equipment of these war dead is good, with leather armor, weapons, spears and shields. However, Zhang Yang still frowned: the costumes of these soldiers are very different from those of the Central Plains. They tied their knees and elbows respectively, only protecting the key parts of their bodies. Moreover, he has a thick beard, a deep face and a high nose, and knows a lot about tactics.

Zhang Yang has never seen these arms. What's more strange is that Ma Chao doesn't seem to care about this combat power at all. In one day and one night, this army has launched more than a dozen attacks back and forth. Every time, Huai County was a little overstretched, but it was shallow, teasing Huai County like a cat and a mouse.

Zhang Yang looked up and looked into the distance. Ma Jun's camp covered the sky and the earth, and the banners were flaming and powerful. On all four sides of Huai County, they were all surrounded by the Ma legion and firmly controlled the four-way channels of Huai County. They were calm and awe-inspiring. The arrogance of the county is overflowing with words.

What can Zhang Yang do about these? The scout who should be sent to ask for help had already been sent before the Ma family was besieged. He, a combatable soldier in the hands of Hanoi, was less than 20,000, and only more than 50,000 residents of Huai County were included. At this time, there were 100,000 people in the Ma army that surrounded the county. In addition, I heard that there are 300,000 troops stationed in Wen County, and they can reach Huai County on the first day.

With the power of Ma Jiajun, you can push the city down with a gentle push. As soon as Huai County fell, the Ma Chao Army could continue to spread on the north bank of the Yellow River, gather into an irresistible defense line, and fight a decisive battle with Yuan Gong in the vast plains. But strangely, Ma Chao on the opposite side seemed to be absent-minded. Except for yesterday's intention to test the resistance of the defenders, the main force has been motionless.

Zhang Yang shook his head, and suddenly his expression moved, and the sound of a strong horn came from his ear. The whole Ma family's large military camp seemed to be a wake-up trapped dragon. After turning over the smoke and dust, several teams slowly walked out of the camp with neat steps. The banner covered the sky, and the soldiers looked at it from the head of the city. The army of the Ma family seemed to be a cave ant coming out of the nest, and it could not be seen at the edge.

When Zhang Yang's heart was in such a situation yesterday, his heart had been hanging in mid-air, causing him not close his eyes at all last night. At this time, when he saw such a military situation, he felt that he really couldn't resist: "The whole army is ready to defeat the invading enemy, and the Yuan family's army can come to help on the same day!"

Luckily, Huai County is not a lonely city, and there is also a large army outside to look forward to. But sadly, the army for the examination has not moved for a long time. Zhang Yang doesn't know whether the Yuan family has given up Huai County and wants to fight against the Ma family again.

"Kill!"

Zhang Yang saw Ma Chao's right hand shaking gently in the distance, as if he had thrown down a few copper plates. However, this is the action. Two thousand of those aliens shouted and rushed up again yesterday...

Zhang Yang no longer had a sense of nonsense. He shouted and encouraged the morale of the soldiers in the city. In addition, he finally said, "Send my order and mobilize the people in the city to defend the city!"

At the same moment, Ma Chao* was quite touched on the red rabbit horse: since Lv Bu handed over the red rabbit to Ma Chao, he has been out of line with other war horses for many days, and after the contact in March, the red rabbit also seems to understand Lv Bu's intention. He gradually accepted Ma Chao, the new owner. When he tried to ride again yesterday, Red Rabbit was a little resistant at first, but then his eyes were shining and he acquiesced to the identity of Ma Chao's new owner.

Of course, such a result was that Elephant Dragon Xiaohei bit the Red Rabbit fiercely. The good horse family that Ma Chao carefully wanted to promote, but because of his third party, completely plunged the two horses into the Cold War period.

"Yan Liang should also arrive in Huai County soon, right?" Ma Chao gently brushed the red mane of the red rabbit and asked Yang Xiu beside him.

"When you return to the Lord, you can approach the battlefield in the afternoon. It seems that tomorrow should be the day of the decisive battle against Huai County. Yang Xiu took a look at the memo and replied.

After hearing the news, he didn't say anything more. He just sighed and said a little out of the topic: "When will the 22nd Army be killed..."

The large-scale legion battle was not without it at the end of the Han Dynasty. But the trigger event is very low, and the two sides will not start such a decisive battle unless the revenge or the time is ripe. Generally speaking, both sides defend their own fronts and attack each other. In less than a year and a half, they can't win or lose at all.

During the battle of Xingyang's revenge, Gao Gan was forced to fight. But after the great defeat, the two families tried their best to avoid such a large-scale hard defense. First of all, there is really no technical content. Second, it's also because of the simplest truth that it's a pity to lose all.

The two families have inexhaustible forces in each other's hands, and naturally they will gradually advance. Especially for Yuan Jun, after their great defeat, they already knew that Yuan Jiajun's combat strength was not the same level as Ma Jiajun's at all, and naturally they did not dare to act rashly. In addition, they still fight at home, and can rely on strict guard to consume Ma Chao's military food. When the Ma family's army is exhausted, they will fight again.

Therefore, Ma Chao knew that even if Yan Liangzhen came to rescue Huai County this time, he would only shake a shot and see if the fighter could be used. At the same time, he used such a move to let Zhang Yang, the governor of Hanoi, consume the last trace of vitality of Hanoi County and hold it until he killed the Ma army. After all, the 100,000 troops of the Ma family besieged a small city, and Yan Liang had no power to return to heaven.

But for Ma Chao, he had to plan Yan Liang as a support army. In the away battle, Ma's soldiers' food could not be effectively guaranteed. Only under the huge rule behind us can we continue to deliver military food to the front line. Such a long and exhausting war of national power is not Ma Chao's original intention. Therefore, he should only seize any opportunity to swallow the living power of the Yuan family and let the balance of victory gradually tilt towards Ma Chao.

At present, everything is going well: the main force of the high-level cadres was defeated, the Yuan family's grain and grass was robbed, and Huai County was also blurted out. As long as the Ma family plays a few more victories, when Yuan Shao's main force really wants to fight against the Ma family, Ma Chao shrinks the defense line, lays heavy troops in Huai County, and returns to Chang'an: Ma Chao is not that kind of fool to work for Cao Cao.

War, sometimes a step back, is the biggest attack. At least, when he has to pay a great price, Ma Chao would rather withdraw from the puzzle, play some tricks behind the scenes, slowly bury the nail, and wait for the other party to make a major mistake, and then hit it with thunder!

He is hostile to the Yuan family, the Cao family and even the whole Han Dynasty. What he needs is this kind of relaxed wisdom. As for the hatred between Duanmu Ruoyu and the general of the Ma family, it really needs to be decided and then moved.

After Ma Chao calmed down in the past two days, he completely cleared his mind.

"Dezu, how many reinforcements do you think Yan Liang can bring this time?" Ma Chao looked at the retreating Parthia mercenaries in front of him and waved slightly again, signaling another wave of teams to attack again: the trial has not yet sent troops, and Ma Chao can't directly capture the bait of Huai County with all his strength. But at the same time, it will create the illusion that the Ma army is in a hurry to attack each other, so that they can only sacrifice these alien cannon fodder arms that work hard for money - who let this 30,000 army pay the full amount in advance, they should pay back their money to their money.

"My subordinates are short-sighted, but if I were Yan Liang, 20,000 of my subordinates would be enough to give Zhang Yang hope. If there are more, I'm afraid it will be heartbreaking."

Ma Chao nodded, and his expectation was also this number. But thinking of the Ma Jiajun who had ambushed on the road from Wuzhi to Huai County in advance, Ma Chao couldn't help sighing: "There are too few... The 30,000 Ma troops under the raid were enough to swallow 50,000 Yuan troops. Why is that person so annoying?
