"Mom, come here once and leave without fighting.
I really can't afford to lose this person.
Is this Longxi County Sheriff a mule or a horse?
I have to pull him out for a walk."
Until the sun began to burn and it was hard to open his eyes, Ma Chao Then he gritted his teeth and said.
"Brother Chou, your subordinates have not been used since Nan'an.
Today, you will take the lead."
Ma Chao turned around and called his generals over, and ordered Brother Chou.
"Nuo" Brother Chou clasped his fists and was extremely excited.
He had the least military achievements along the way.
It is said that his record among other princes would have gone crazy.
In the Ma Jiajun, he only lost 500 people and won a county, but he could only get the last ranking.
Fortunately, the bastards under him also learned their shame and gained courage, and held back their energy along the way.
Meeting such a tough nut to crack at this moment is just the right time for the young master to see that he belongs to the kind of army that fights tough battles.
From this, Brother Chou looked at Ma Chao and couldn't help but nod, feeling grateful, excited, and eager all mixed together.
The expression on his face looked extremely weird, with a hint of ferocity in his smile, and the scar on his face jumped up and down.
At this moment, a discordant voice came from his ears: "Young Master, a certain subordinate has rested for the past few days and is ready to fight.
And there are no casualties in Guangwei County, so he is more suitable for this battle."
Pound does have the demeanor of a general, but the problem is that no one has stipulated that this general cannot ask for a fight. ah Brother Chou didn't wait for Ma Chao to speak, and grabbed Pang De, "Old Pang, we have been together for so many years, I have never asked you, just for this matter, can you let me do it?"
"No, you never asked me.
When you were in the criminal cavalry camp, if you couldn't beat me, you would slap me with sap or make me trip.
Once, I almost lost my life on the battlefield."
"It's not like this.
At that time, we had to eat or drink.
If you don't fight to be the boss, even dogs will bully you."
Brother Chou immediately let go of Pang De's hand and stroked it.
Flat Pound's collar.
He said with a shy face.
"That's enough.
This is the time of the war.
How can you behave appropriately?"
Ma Chao was in a bad mood.
He didn't have a good tone towards the two of them: "A certain person asked Brother Chou to attack the city because his subordinates all have the same virtues as him.
They know that if they can beat them, they will be like mad dogs.
If they can't beat them, they will dodge.
When the gold rings, they will be like rabbits."
Ma Chao told the truth, what kind of people lead what kind of soldiers.
It is said that the character of the general directly affects the character of the troops.
It's not bad at all.
It would indeed be better to let Brother Chou, a more discerning force, attack the city than Pound's group of die-hard troops.
Brother Chou was speechless at the moment, and the young master didn't know if he was praising or derogating, but luckily.
This is the first mission that I absolutely cannot escape.
"Brother Chou, I'll be honest with you this time.
I'll let all the ballistae shoot at Longxi County to test the water first.
Then you charge with all the soldiers equipped with Yuanrong crossbows and large shields.

If you can take that I'll fill up the moat.
How about this battle being your first victory?"
"Nuo" Brother Chou clasped his fists and accepted the order, glanced at Pang De proudly and left.
"Ling Ming, you have your cavalry on standby.
If Longxi County dares to send cavalry to attack Brother Chou's infantry, will you resist me to the death?"
"This subordinate will definitely fulfill his mission."
Pang De also left with fists in his hands.
Ma Dai was left standing aside.
"Ma Dai, you go check the readiness of all the crossbows and be responsible for firing the crossbows.
Even if there is a god in Longxi County, he will follow me to shoot the range."
"Nuo" originally thought that his eldest brother would let him watch the battle, but he didn't want to think that he also had responsibilities, so Ma Dai ran away.
"Chao'er, are you really determined to capture Longxi?"
Jia Xu asked after the deployment was completed.
Ma Chao nodded and stretched out his hand to check the wind direction: Yes, it's just downwind.
"Brother, the ballistae have been prepared."
After a little effort, the fifty ballistae that Ma Chao brought this time were installed in place.
After some guidance from Ma Chao and modification by Zheng Hun and Pu Yuan from the arsenal, this battery of crossbows has a range of more than 300 steps; the seemingly simple sight has greatly improved the accuracy of shooting.
At this time, the mountain-destroying crossbows used on most city walls in the late Han Dynasty had a range of only 200 steps.
With the height of the city walls, they could barely reach 250 degrees.
Taking into account today's wind direction, the Ma Jiajun has an absolute advantage.
What's even better is that after being equipped with leather wheels, the originally cumbersome bed crossbow has become very convenient for marching.
During normal marches, it is carried by mules and horses.
In wartime, only two soldiers can pull it to the front line and assemble it.
Ma Dai shuttled back and forth in the crossbow array, carefully checking whether the crossbows were installed in place and whether the crossbow arrows were sufficient.
After that, he reported to Ma Chao: "Brother, the fifty ballistas are ready.
Please give me the order."
Come on, although I, Tianshui County, like to subdue others without fighting, when there is no other way, I prefer to be a man.
Let me see how tough you are in Longxi County.
Thinking in his heart, Ma Chao spit out two words: "Solley"
With an order, fifty ballistae fired in unison, and the roars that pierced the eardrums sounded together, frightening many war horses.
Ma Chao saw from a distance that the thick crossbow nails actually exploded the bricks and stones of the city.
Countless soldiers who looked at the Ma Jiajun firing their crossbows 300 steps away watched the thick crossbow nails whizzing towards them, and they were too late.
They were trying to avoid it, and with their previous disdain and ridicule, their bodies were shot to pieces, and they fell straight down the city wall like broken kites.
This move was a great one.
Ma Chao clapped his hands and laughed: Not only did they lose their momentum this time, I'm afraid they also took away their courage.
"Swish swish" The second wave of crossbow arrows was fired immediately, and the county soldiers on the Longxi County wall were already frightened, and their reaction was very alert.
After this round of volleys, Ma Chao could no longer see anyone.
However, all the county soldiers were huddled on the narrow city wall, and there were still many county soldiers who had no way to escape.
"Puff" Another unlucky soldier from Longxi County was suddenly hit by a crossbow.
The huge momentum caused the soldier's body to fly up like a kite with its string broken.
When he fell down, his entire chest seemed to have been hollowed out, and his internal organs had long been shaken.
He was so badly beaten that he was shot to death before he even had time to scream.
In an instant, Longxi City turned into a human hell.
"Ah", "Ouch" Many county soldiers whose skin was scratched or shot in the hands and feet were heard crying.
The city walls were full of broken limbs and blood flowing everywhere, just like a scene in the end of the world.

Finally, after the fifth wave of shooting, no one could be seen on the top of the city.
At this moment, tens of thousands of Ma's troops outside the city suddenly cheered in unison, and tens of thousands of voices roared, almost drowning out the sound of the crossbows.
Ma Chao felt strange and hurriedly looked around, only to see two black flags hanging on the tower being hit by a crossbow arrow and falling down.
At this time, all morale belonged to the Xiliang Army.
And Ma Chao was excited and angry: Why doesn’t this ugly brother charge at this time?
"Dong dong dong" Just when Ma Chao was about to get angry, several big drums at the back sounded in unison, and a shrill shout penetrated the heavy cannon and drum beats, which hit his eardrums.
Ma Chao smiled slightly, followed the sound, and sure enough he saw Brother Chou covered with armor. , riding on a bay red horse, barking orders to his soldiers fiercely.
From this point of view, Longxi County is not difficult to defeat.
Ma Chao thought in his heart: In the face of absolute strength, Longxi County's military conspiracies have no place at all.
Next, Ma Chao realized how wrong he was: fighting is not that simple. s: This is the third updated single, where is the leader:
