Chapter 109: Fighting Lingling
When Ma Chao climbed to the top of the mountain, it was already dark and he could vaguely see the entire scenery of Longshan.
Ma Chao looked down from the platform and saw that the peaks and rocks of Longshan were rising and the valleys were sinking; the color of the mountain was reddish-brown due to geothermal oxidation, and the shape of the mountain was tilted eastward due to extrusion. The movement of the earth's crust made the strange peaks and rocks here appear in various shapes.
, some reach straight into the sky, some stretch for miles, some hang like screens, some stand proudly, some stand gracefully... As far as the landscape of Longshan is concerned, most of it is similar to the gods, which seems to be more enjoyable.
Ma Chao looked to his right and sighed: "Cousin, you see that our right hand is Xiongguan Pass. Chen Sheng and Zhang Hu, who were appointed by Liu Biao, are stationed here with 50,000 troops and horses. Those 50,000
Soldiers and horses are Liu Biao’s last remaining strength
Rui. Not to mention that the pass is majestic, and it is even more bizarre. If our army were to attack by force, we would have to pay a heavy price. Since we have climbed over Longshan, we can bypass this pass and directly attack Lingling City.
."
"Brother, you are really far-sighted. If other generals and marquises were there, they would probably have to attack one village and one city at a time."
"No, cousin, this is what the Marquis meant. The Marquis seems to have a keen sense of military insight. We are the same age, but I found that the Marquis' grasp of the entire war process is far beyond that of you and me.
The difference is not one verse or two, but our generation can never surpass it."
"Brother, we have to go down the mountain now. After we go down the mountain, we have to cross a swamp before we can reach Lingling City."
"Lingling City has gathered all of Liu Biao's last troops. We must have the most ferocious battle to fight. It is estimated that of our 20,000 troops, there will only be 2,000 left. The whole army sets off."
After Ma Chao led all his men and horses down Longshan, he began to count the men and horses. The counting officer reported to Ma Chao that he had lost a total of twenty-one cavalry, thirty horses, and eleven infantry.
Ma Chao gave an order: "Where are the scouts?" "The general is here."
"Now you lead five scouts to test it out. In addition, you can explore the road ahead."
The scout was about to go down, and Ma Chao hurriedly called out: "What's your name?"
"The last general is Pound."
"Okay, if you can complete the mission this time, I will appoint you as adjutant."
"Thank you, General. I will leave now."
Pound then led five scouts, wearing light clothes, and began to march quickly.
They moved forward, testing the road ahead with the long knives in their hands, and placing landmarks on the road they walked.
However, from time to time, a scout would gently step onto the place where he had just tested his sword. As soon as his foot stepped on it, he began to sink. However, the scout could not stand up, because once they stood up, they would often be attacked by the enemy on the opposite side.
Discover.
So the scout struggled hard, but the more he struggled, the deeper his body sank in. The scout next to him turned around and threw a hook to the trapped scout. The two of them were pulling the hooks to each other, and the person trapped in it
Still sinking in regardless, the people on the shore gradually moved in the direction of the sinking.
At this time, Pound was watching from behind and one of the people started to fall into it after eating, but the other person also began to face falling into the swamp.
Pang De threw the knife out without hesitation and cut the rope directly.
The man finally drowned in the swamp, while the other man, under Pound's eyes, threw off the rope and continued moving forward.
These scouts continued to move forward without looking back, because they remembered the spirit Pound had given them to implement their spirit and unite as one, everything would be conducive to the completion of our mission.
Therefore, when a teammate is in danger, he should rush forward to rescue him without any scruples. In addition, once a teammate drags down the entire team, he should not hesitate to kill his own teammate. This is Pound's method of running an army.
Suddenly a burst of crossbow arrows came. All the scouts thought they had been discovered and prepared to fight back. However, Pang De keenly felt that the burst of crossbow arrows were fired in a disorderly manner, rather than in a prepared and organized manner.
Pang De waved his hand and told everyone not to rush forward and to continue moving forward.
But there were five hundred soldiers in the small woods opposite. Among them, there were only thirty or forty crossbowmen at the front, and the rest were infantry. They were leaning against the trees one after another, lazily leaning against the trees. Some of them were
Various foods were being cooked, and some people were actually having fun with women in the tent.
Ma Chao and Ma Dai slowly looked at the woods opposite.
Ma Dai asked softly: "I don't know when the war will start?" "The war has already started. From the time our first batch of scouts passed by, our war has already started."
"Brother, let's attack."
