Xiaoguangong

Chapter 225 Dilemma
At the end of the war, although Han Sui was not reconciled, he could only announce his withdrawal in a dejected manner.

In the bleak night wind, Han Sui's army was full of painful screams and wails. Those Liangzhou good horses were leisurely chewing the hay, seeing the pain and unwillingness of these people in front of them, and for a moment they didn't know what happened.

Han Sui had not suffered such a defeat for a long time.

They dispatched more troops than Ma Chao today. A total of 5000 people went out to fight, and more than 3000 people successfully entered the city.

The military adviser Cheng Gongying personally commanded, and Yan Xing also killed the tower. He really wanted to make a big splash at the south gate that was not covered by ice. the way.

But now everything has exceeded previous expectations.

Han Sui's elite soldiers suffered more than [-] casualties, and a large number of corpses were thrown into the city one by one. No one dared to risk their lives to collect the corpses of their comrades-in-arms. The scene was very cold and frightening.

They saw the strong fighting will of the defenders. Yunshan personally faced Han Sui, and his subordinates fought desperately. If the fight continued, their casualties would be astonishing, far exceeding their combat gains.

War is about cost.

Even if Chang'an is broken, so what if the slaughter is to vent to the soldiers?

They raised their troops this time to occupy Guanzhong, and then wait for an opportunity to sweep the Central Plains and plunder the Huahua World in the Central Plains.

I didn't expect to encounter such a thing in Chang'an.

Liang Xing was killed in battle, and Cheng Yima Wan was captured. These can still be said to be a group of arrogant and rampant fish.

But today, Han Sui tried his best to attack the city and failed, but instead suffered huge losses. If he continues to fight, maybe his soldiers and horses will be swallowed by others, and finally...

"Ma Chao is here! Ma Chao is here!"

A burst of exclamation from Han Sui's army interrupted Han Sui's meditation.

He came back to his senses and asked quickly:

"How many soldiers and horses are here?"

"ten people!"

"Huh, please come in Mengqi."

For a while, Han Sui thought that Ma Chao was here to take advantage of the situation and rob him.

Liangzhou soldiers, how can everyone have any etiquette, justice, integrity and shame? They are all talking about swords, guns and fists. When Ma Teng and Li Jue fought, Han Sui came all the way from Jincheng to persuade the fight. After arriving, they started beating Li Jue together. something is wrong.

If he and Ma Teng talked about a little bit of shame, they wouldn't be in today's situation, and he wouldn't even be called Han Sui...

Han Sui and Ma Teng were originally just a group of princes who came and went like the wind. Relying on Li Jue and Guo Si to enter Guanzhong, they followed the principle of grabbing as much as they could. The name of the Han court, this name was issued by Li Jue and Guo Si in the past.

This time, most of the people under Han Sui's tent were unwilling to join forces with his old enemy Ma Chao, and if they wanted to do it, they did it by themselves.

Looking at Han Sui, he didn't think that the tens of thousands of people under him could do anything better than Cao Cao's thousands of troops.

It was a rare opportunity to seize the opportunity of Cao Jun's defeat in Chibi and no achievements in Jingzhou for a long time. Han Sui was also obsessed with ghosts, thinking that he and Ma Chao could completely put aside all old grievances.

But when he really met Ma Chao, Han Sui realized that things like grievances and grievances cannot be put aside with a single sentence.

What he and his subordinates fear the most is still the Jinyi General.

Ma Chao clearly felt the hostility towards him from the generals of Han Sui's army.

His face remained unchanged, and he went straight to Han Sui's Chinese army tent.

Han Sui came out of the tent to greet him. Seeing Ma Chao covered in blood, he hurriedly asked:
"How is Meng Qi injured?"

"It's not a problem. It's all the enemy's blood." Ma Chao said, making a gesture of invitation, and walked into the tent with Han Sui, while Yan Xing followed, standing behind Han Sui to protect him.

In the past, Ma Chao and Yan Xing, the deadly rivals, would inevitably meet their eyes, but now neither of them is in the mood.

Ma Chao directly cut to the point, and said politely:

"Our army attacked the city today and suffered heavy losses.

I personally went to the city to fight, and found that Cao Jun's fighting spirit in the city was amazing, and everyone was brave and not afraid of death. They are really powerful soldiers in the world.

I don't know what's going on with my uncle? "

Han Sui turned his eyes to Yan Xing with a gloomy face.

"Yanming went to the city himself, and he couldn't win."

"Oh." Ma Chao also cast a questioning look.

Yan Xing had no choice but to bite the bullet and said:
"The soldiers under Yunshan's command are really powerful. We have been fighting for many years, and we have hardly seen such strong soldiers.

In my opinion, the pawns under Yunshan's command... can be compared to the king's division back then. "

Back then when the Han army was the strongest, it had good equipment, sufficient logistics, many rewards, and high culture, and the most terrifying thing was that the Han army was mainly engaged in foreign wars at that time. When they heard that they were going to conquer the Huns and the barbarians, everyone really shined in their eyes. Whoever falls behind is the grandson.

But the world has been in turmoil for many years, and the elite soldiers in the Sansuke Land have long been swept away by rounds of wars, and everyone has long been numb to war.

At any rate, Ma Chao had always regarded himself as a Guanzhong person before, and it stands to reason that they shouldn't resist him so desperately.

But Yan Xing also said that there are many Guanzhong soldiers in the army, and they are all desperate, and they are not afraid of death.

Among the rebels, there are many diehard loyalists of Ma Chao and Han Sui, but most of them are pursuing the huge wealth brought by rewards and plunder, and many people are coerced or simply come to join in the fun. If they continue to attack City, when it comes to the final moment of competition, the rebels will definitely pull their hips.

"The city cannot be attacked." Ma Chao made a judgment, "Our army has been at a stalemate since the beginning of the dispatch of troops. Please also ask the governor to clearly distinguish rewards and punishments, so as to reassure the generals."

Han Sui's temples twitched violently, and he could already hear Ma Chao's implication.

After fighting like this, he suddenly stopped fighting, and he had to give an explanation to his subordinate Erlang.

The Guanzhong Allied Forces are a loose alliance. When there are benefits, they will naturally rush forward.

In this battle, Han Sui hadn't considered attacking Chang'an at all before. It was the best strategy to block Guanzhong first, and then slowly besiege it.

This strategy was indeed successful at the beginning. Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan were really afraid of the overwhelming enemy and escaped directly.

Unexpectedly, there are really tough guys in this world who take the initiative to be surrounded, relying on the strong city of Chang'an to resolutely refuse to surrender, and Han Sui jumped left and right tactically, and was unwilling to be captured by Ma Chengyi, so he summoned Ma Chao to support him. became the present scene.

Ma Chao is now blatantly asking Han Sui to take over, but Han Sui's face is naturally livid, and he doesn't know what to say for a while.

Yan Xing couldn't stand listening, and shouted angrily:
"Even if the governor is [-]% wrong, is it true that the general is not even [-]% wrong?
Three sides of Chang'an are frozen, only the side where the governor is located is safe, why the general refuses to concentrate his forces, instead..."

"Don't talk about it." Han Sui waved his hand in annoyance, "Meng Qi... how about this, I, Han Sui, are willing to bear all the crimes in this battle, how will Meng Qi say to fight the next battle? I will listen to Meng Qi's orders That's right."

"Don't dare to order. But our army came here in a hurry under the order of the governor of the capital, and it was too late to enter Huayin.

The soldiers worked hard all the way, and were killed again. I also asked the governor to give some rewards to reassure people's hearts. "

Han Sui's face became more and more ugly, but he finally smiled.

"Okay. The sergeants suffered heavy casualties, and I can't bear it.

All the savings in the army are used to reward the generals, and they will fight hard in the future. "

Ma Chao nodded, and said seriously:
"Most of the thieves were born in Jingzhou, foot combat and water combat are certainly brilliant, but horse combat may not be possible.

Now they are besieging the city with ice on three sides, binding themselves in a cocoon, obviously not daring to leave the city, our army besieged the place with [-] soldiers and horses, preventing them from going out, and after we have eliminated the Cao bandits, we can gather a large army to wipe them out, how about that? "

This is back to Han Sui's previous tactics.

If he knew this earlier, Han Sui might as well not bother.

He snorted:
"Thieves can kill Liang Xing in the midst of a chaotic army, the method of horse warfare may not be too weak.

Three thousand soldiers and horses... If the thieves broke out and attacked the rear of our army, I'm afraid it would be very bad. "

"Then how many soldiers and horses do you think uncle will use?"

"Ten thousand!" Han Sui said, "At least ten thousand elite soldiers are needed. Don't let the thieves cut off our food supply. Our military has a way to win."

1 people...

Where can Ma Chao and Han Sui get 1 people now, or [-] elite soldiers?
Transfer all the elite soldiers away, what will they use to fight Cao Jun when Cao Jun comes again?

It can't be beaten, and it can't be surrounded. This feeling really needs to be as high as possible. Both Han Sui and Ma Chao are cursing in their hearts where this monster came from.

Only Yan Xing looked sad, thinking of Guan Ping's words when he retreated, he felt more and more melancholy.
