The hot-blooded and belligerent personalities of several people quickly infected Ma Chao, Ma Tie, and Ma Dai, and they repeatedly made sure that the four of them did not plan to rest too much.As long as you eat and drink enough tonight and sleep well, you will be ready to set off on the army, and Ma Chao has nothing to say.Immediately stood up and said to everyone: "Since you are all ready this time, then I, Ma Chao, will no longer be polite, in order to take the hinterland of Hanzhong and open a smooth continent for Your Majesty, tomorrow our brothers will join forces to march into the army."
It's just that I don't know, can you brothers be ready" Zhang Ren, Liu Xuan, Deng Xian, and Ling Bao four generals, plus Ma Tie and Ma Dai, as soon as they saw Ma Chao's words, coupled with Ma Chao's expression, these six people immediately became particularly serious and cautious, and said in unison: "We will listen to the general's orders." ”I saw that Ma Chao immediately issued an order to the commander-in-chief: "General Liu Xuan, tomorrow you will lead 5,000 men and horses to attack the enemy's camp tent on the northwest side of Hanzhong County; General Deng Xian, tomorrow you will lead 5,000 men and horses to attack the first military camp tent on the southwest side of Hanzhong County; General Lingbao, tomorrow you will lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to attack the enemy's camp tent on the northeast side.When the time comes, the three of you will each lead the troops and horses, and you must attack the enemy camp at the same time, and you must not let the three enemy camps have any chance to contact each other. ”After Ma Chao issued the first general order, Liu Bi, Ling Bao, and Deng Xian hurriedly said in unison: "Please rest assured, general, I and other brothers will lead the soldiers and horses to attack the enemy's three camps with all their might, and will never let any enemy escape." ”Seeing that the other three generals had already received the tasks assigned by Ma Chao, the remaining Zhang Ren couldn't help but look at Ma Chao and said eagerly: "General Ma Chao and Liu Bi have already had the task of entering the army, why is it only me Zhang Ren who doesn't" In Zhang Ren's opinion, this time Ma Chao was in a hurry to attack other important places in Hanzhong, so he forgot about himself.Looking at Zhang Ren's eager look, Ma Chao couldn't help laughing, and then opened his mouth to comfort: "General Zhang Ren doesn't have to be so nervous, this time General Zhang Ren personally led the army and came to help me Ma Chao, how can I Ma Chao be placed outside the door of General Yu."
This time, His Majesty personally led the troops and supervised the battle of the three large army camps outside the city of Hanzhong County, Deng Xian, Liu Bi, and Ling Bao, so that he had the opportunity to completely capture the entire enemy army. ”"But even so, it does not mean that we have finished our work, the purpose of the three generals attacking the three enemy camps at the same time is to be able to attack at the same time and stop all the enemy reinforcements from the three enemy camps in one fell swoop.In order to help our other soldiers to attack Hanzhong County smoothly, but Hanzhong County is a very hard bone, with the strength of my Ma Chao, it is difficult to gnaw down.Therefore, Ma Chao needs General Zhang Ren to be able to attack Hanzhong County with me. ”After hearing Ma Chao's words, Zhang Ren couldn't help but be surprised, and couldn't help asking: "Oh, attack Hanzhong County" You must know that Hanzhong County is not more important than other important places, but an important place in Hanzhong, which can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack.Attacking Hanzhong County will be a tough battle, and whether or not we can successfully win this battle depends not only on the number of troops, but also on the need for the commander's mind and sufficient courage.At that moment, Zhang Ren couldn't help but ask Ma Chao again and said: "Please General Ma Chao instruct, what should I Zhang Ren do is how to cooperate with General Ma Chao and attack Hanzhong County" I only heard Ma Chao say to Zhang Ren: "General Zhang Ren led 10,000 soldiers and horses, and Ma Tie and Ma Dai divided into three routes of soldiers and horses to jointly attack the city gate of Hanzhong County."
Although Hanzhong County is easy to defend and difficult to attack, I want the three of you to lure the enemy from the outside world and completely attract the attention of the enemy, or you don't have to fight too head-on for this, which will only aggravate the casualties and losses of our army.You only need to do your best to assist my Ma Chao, and when the time comes, my Ma Chao will take the opportunity to give the enemy a fierce blow in the back, and he will definitely be able to take Hanzhong County in one fell swoop. ”As soon as Ma Chao's voice fell, Zhang Ren immediately stepped forward and asked: "That Hanzhong County can be said to be surrounded by mountains and rivers, and it is famous for many natural dangers. ”After speaking, Ma Chao looked at everyone and showed a hint of mystery, and then spoke: "Although the land of Hanzhong County is famous for its mountains and rivers, it is famous for occupying natural dangers, and there are many soldiers and horses in it, so it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.This time, Ma Chao asked you to send troops to attack several garrisons outside of Hanzhong County, plus to attract the troops of Hanzhong County, in order to allow Ma Chao to lead his troops over the mountains and mountains and enter Hanzhong County from a dangerous place.When the time comes, if you attract the troops of Hanzhong County, presumably Ma Chao will be able to enter from the dangerous place, and when the time comes, with the soldiers and horses outside the city, the inside and outside should take the opportunity to occupy the city gate of Hanzhong County, and open the city gate to welcome the army into the city. ”As soon as Liu Bi heard about it, he couldn't help but show a hint of surprise and said: "What General Ma Chao is not joking, you must know that the natural danger of Hanzhong County is a dangerous place with mountains and high grounds, and there are torrents and rapids, and it is difficult for ordinary people to cross this obstacle."
This is also the reason why the Wei army occupied Hanzhong County and the Shu army were in opposition to each other, even if the Shu army's men and horses were brave and attacked Hanzhong County for several months, they failed to take this place.This time, Wei surrendered to the Shu army, and Hanzhong County fell into the hands of the Shu army, and the Shu army began to show off its power with the help of this place, and it has been Hengshan according to this. ”Ling Bao on the side also hurriedly stood up and bowed to Ma Chao: "As early as before, when the Wei army and the Shu army were competing for Hanzhong, the Shu army launched surprise attacks on the Wei army many times because they wanted to conquer this natural danger.However, no matter how many people the Shu army sacrificed and how many times it failed, it failed to win the heavenly danger, and finally ended in failure.This time, General Ma Chao wants to conquer the world again and enter Hanzhong County, it is too dangerous. ”At this moment, Ma Chao's brother Ma Tie couldn't help but wonder: "Yes, big brother, it is too dangerous to enter Hanzhong County from a dangerous place.It's not even easy for people to walk there, not to mention that the war horses don't go right away, and the heavy troops can't be transported, does the general plan to rely on a few long soldiers in his hands to fight the enemy on foot" Ma Chao immediately said: "Turning over mountains and wading through rivers, it is naturally impossible to ride war horses and carry baggage, Ma Chao only needs to carry his usual weapons."
As for the siege baggage and equipment, Ma Chao's task this time is to be responsible for infiltrating the city and doing the internal and external cooperation, so there is no need for these.I'll leave all those things to you to attract the enemy outside the city, and as for those horses, as long as we successfully infiltrate the city, we will have a chance to capture the enemy's horses. ”"Presumably, the Shu army in the city, when defending the city, are all fighting on foot, those war horses will definitely stay in the stables, and the first task for Ma Chao to lead the soldiers and horses into the city is to seize the war horses and destroy the stables.Although it is inconvenient to conduct horse warfare in that city, with the bravery of our people, as long as there are war horses and long soldiers, we can give full play to certain advantages, and it is not a problem to take the gate of Hanzhong County. ”After hearing this, Zhang Ren couldn't help but show a hint of admiration at Ma Chao, and immediately arched his hand at Ma Chao and said: "This kind of battle is really too dangerous, and the general must be careful." ”Ma Dai, who was on the side of this matter, suddenly stood up in public, and said to Ma Chao: "The general is the commander of an army, and his identity is noble.I, Ma Dai, am bound to complete the general's task, take the city gate of Hanzhong County at all costs, and open the city gate to welcome our soldiers into the city. ”Hearing Ma Dai's words, Ma Chao couldn't help but nodded, expressing his satisfaction with Ma Dai's actions, but then only listened to Ma Chao's words: "Your heart, Ma Chao naturally understands, but this time the stakes are very high, and it is necessary to gather the morale of the army to break through the natural danger, and this time I have to go to Ma Chao himself." ”After Ma Chao finished speaking, seeing that everyone still wanted to open their mouths to say, Ma Chao hurriedly opened his mouth to stop everyone: "You don't have to say more, this time, my Ma Chao has already made up my mind, you don't have to compete with me." ”Ma Tie reminded worriedly again: "How many men and horses does the general plan to lead this time to trek through mountains and rivers and bravely enter Hanzhong County" Ma Chao immediately said: "Although this mission is difficult and dangerous, we must be careful, otherwise once it is discovered by the enemy, it will be wasted."
Therefore, I plan to only lead 500 athletes this time. ”"What 500 people" After hearing Ma Chao's words, everyone couldn't help but show surprise, no one thought that Ma Chao was carrying out this arduous task this time, and he only led 500 people.If it is said that this time Ma Chao plans to lead people and horses to trek through mountains and rivers and sneak into Hanzhong County, then this time Ma Chao only led 500 people and horses, which is undoubtedly a sheep into the mouth of a tiger and a way to his own death.Zhang Ren was the first to stand up and retorted: "General, five hundred men and horses are really too dangerous, in case they are surrounded by enemy troops, then there will be no life, should the general bring more men and horses" Ma Chao immediately smiled and said: "Leading five hundred men and horses is the same as leading a thousand men and horses in doing this, even if two thousand men and horses are surrounded by the enemy army in Hanzhong County, it is the same death."
In addition, if there are many people, it is difficult to move, and it is easy to be detected by enemy troops.As long as I select 500 elite men this time, I will be able to handle this matter, so you don't have to worry too much, as long as you launch a fierce attack on Hanzhong County from the front and completely attract all the enemy troops in the city, then my Ma Chao will have enough opportunities to do this. ”At that moment, everyone shouted at Ma Chao in unison: "Please rest assured, the general, we will launch an all-out attack on Hanzhong County at all costs, so as to attract the enemy soldiers in Hanzhong County and create more opportunities for the general." ”:
