In Ma Chao's view, a general's bravery and strategy are two indispensable factors that determine the victory of a battle.
A true military commander can make the three armies overcome difficulties with one move, one move, and one move.
A true military general stands between two armies and fights on the side of life and death.
He is the soul of the battle and the source of morale.
A true military general is tireless and ignorant of hard work.
He attacks like lightning and flint and moves like strong winds and waves.
He is the true overlord on the battlefield.
These are factors that cannot be ignored in any battle.
However, the victory of a battle must also have a prerequisite, that is, how to use the least troops and the least losses to achieve the greatest results.
More profoundly, is a battle worth fighting, or in other words, winning?
Whether defeat will help the development of the group in the future, these are not things that a military commander needs to consider, but the responsibility of a mastermind.
Therefore, Liu Bei frequently waved a flag on the battlefield that read "Plain Liu Xuande", but strangely he never achieved anything famous.
In fact, after more than ten years of turbulence, he actually received the following evaluation from the careerist Yuan Shu: "Since the year of Shu's birth, , I don’t know that there is Liu Bei in the world.”
After that, Liu Bei got Zhuge Liang, but he was able to rise up and conquer the small town of Xinye, until he finally decided Yizhou and divided the world into three parts.
This fully illustrates the importance of an excellent planner's strategy.
Similarly, in Ma Chao's view, the current situation is because Fufeng now only has generals and no mastermind: Although there are many thieves, the generals led by Ma Teng will defeat the enemy by force alone, even if they will win in the end. , but it will not be easy to maximize benefits.
"Dai'er, tell your father that in two days, when I can get out of bed and walk, I will go to the city wall to see the battle situation."
After thinking about this, Ma Chao couldn't help but said to Ma Dai.
"Brother, you" Ma Dai hesitated.
After all, Ma Chao's current body is the most important.
"Don't say more.
Since my father has given me the space to fully develop, I can't let my father down."
Ma Chao waved his hand and motioned for Ma Dai to step back.
Although Ma Teng Group seems to have a good start now, Ma Chao still feels sincerely that there are too few people available to Ma Teng.
For example, in the current situation, just when Jia Xu is out and Meng Da is on business, Ma Teng has to rely on his military strength to fight the bandits to the death.
Moreover, Fufeng County will have to vigorously develop its economy and develop in the future, and there are still many things to do in the future.
There were so many that Ma Chao couldn't handle them all by himself.
It seems that no matter what era it is, talents are still needed.
Ma Chao closed his eyes and finally fell asleep.
Three days later, Ma Chao, who was weak inside, climbed onto the wall of Fufeng City with Ma Dai's support.
At this time, it was also the time for the generals to command the soldiers to resist the bandits' attack on the city.
During this period, Ma Chao was only accompanied by Ma Dai.
Although he had climbed the city wall, he did not know the battle situation or the layout, so he did not deliberately give any command.
He didn't even say hello to Ma Teng, Pang De, Brother Chou and other generals.
He just watched quietly, watching how the Fufeng County soldiers resisted the enemy's siege.
Fortunately, in this kind of offensive and defensive battle where the enemy attacks from all directions at the same time, Ma Chao has no way of commanding him.
Although Ma Teng is not an excellent commander, he can still take on the role of general.
It seemed that Ma Teng had already made arrangements for the enemy's siege.
The four generals led their men to guard their posts, and there was also a mobile reserve team, ready to fill in the areas where the offensive was fierce.
The soldiers of Fufeng County who have experienced many wars naturally know how to deal with the enemy's attack.
They are arranged in an orderly manner in units of troops.
The more powerful crossbows give them a longer attack range and greater power.
People say that the crossbow can only be used three times after the enemy enters the range of the enemy.
It has to face the enemy's hand-to-hand combat and cannot be used again.
However, the crossbowmen controlled by these veterans took turns firing at the fastest speed, greatly increasing the number of firings.

When the enemy is outside the shooting range, no soldier will release a crossbow arrow, but when they enter the effective shooting range, the rain of arrows falling from the sky is like locusts, falling from the sky and covering the ground, penetrating the enemy's thin body.
Leather armor to pin the enemy to the ground.
Almost every time they launched, they caused heavy losses to the enemy.
In just the blink of an eye, the outside of Fufeng City turned into a sea of corpses.
The bloodiness of war is fully reflected The power of crossbows, especially the power of machine crossbows controlled by veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time, is unimaginably terrifying.
Facing it, the only option is to retreat and die.
A thousand kilograms of force is hung on an inch of teeth, and the strength of half a finger can be exerted.
It is so wonderful.
Ma Chao watched the veterans skillfully operate the crossbows.
For the first time, he felt the importance of advanced weapons in ancient offensive and defensive battles. gain a clearer understanding.
If the enemy's lineup was so powerful that it would make people frightened, then the current almost one-sided killing attack by the Fufeng County Army's crossbowmen would make people feel cold both physically and mentally.
In the face of the rain of precise crossbow arrows, human life is so fragile.
For a moment, there is only the sound of the crossbow string, the whistling sound of the arrow rain, the dull sound of hitting the body, and the screams of the dying people.
Two hundred steps away from the city, the place has become a dead place.
Ma Chao clearly saw that even though it seemed that there were more than 30,000 enemy troops still launching a turbulent siege, and they seemed to have almost reached the city wall, it took only a few seconds for this short distance of 500 steps.
Paved with the lives of thousands of soldiers However, the thieves still did not back down.
The enemy soldiers who were fearless in death shouted and rushed forward with huge strong shields and stepped on the mountains of corpses.
The 2,000-stone defensive crossbow on the top of the city roared.
The giant arrows could easily pierce giant shields, pierce the bodies of several people, and even people and shields could fly like straw after impact.
However, the city defense crossbow has its blind spots and fatal flaw after all, that is, it cannot kill the enemy at close range.
After the enemy withstood a burst of rain, more than 4,000 bandits successfully rushed to the city.
Their military discipline is in disarray, their morale is ruined, and there is no trace of the elite troops that frightened the soldiers of Fufeng County.
However, these people seem to have sophisticated skills and battlefield intuition honed over many years on the battlefield.
Most of them can easily defeat them.
He ran to the blind spot of the crossbow arrows, escaped the attack of the arrow rain, and arrived at the city gate almost unscathed and took up his positions.
Ma Chao knew that the previous wave of soldiers were probably cannon fodder sent by the bandits, and those who were beginning to appear now were probably the real elite of the bandits.
Ma Chaoyue felt more and more weird as he looked at it, and his beautiful eyebrows were tightly knitted together: Ordinarily, if these thieves were really a ragtag group that Li Kan and Cheng Yin gathered together temporarily, it would be impossible to organize such a raging attack.
It was impossible to fight a siege battle with Ma Teng for such a long time.
Even further thinking, the number of thieves is at least 60,000 to 70,000, and they have been unable to attack Fufeng County for a long time, and their morale should have been exhausted long ago.
Even if morale is not low, the food and fodder should not be able to keep up.
But now it seems that everything is not the case at all.
Ma Chao touched his nose, frowned and defined these thieves
