Chapter 77 Guo Huai’s helplessness
This time Ma Su tried to replicate Gan Ning's feat, but accidentally surpassed the Soochow tiger general.
Gan Ning robbed Boss Cao's camp back then, so killing a circle of people would have little impact on the whole. But this time Ma Su led the vigorous Qiang and Hu cavalry into the head of the unprepared Yongzhou army, basically beating the opponent stupidly.
Although the ending was good, the Wei army in Yongzhou was basically crippled in one wave. But Ma Su still felt a little uncomfortable. After all, I didn't die after thinking about it for a long time.
If this continues, I'm afraid I will really become a hunk from heaven...
"General! Your bravery this time is unparalleled! We were all wrong. You are much braver than Ma Chao back then!" Shu Ji also squeezed in and praised Ma Su without blushing.
Since ancient times, the task of generals who personally lead the charge has basically been to be the leading swordsman. Only when the general can reach the target without being blocked can the guards behind him amplify the victory and tear apart the opponent's front.
As for how many people were killed, that really wasn't the most important thing.
Ma Su is now a qualified general. Every time he charges, there is no military formation that he cannot break into. As long as Ma Di rushes in, the guards behind him can immediately enlarge the gap and completely tear the Wei army's formation to pieces.
Because of this, Qiang and Hu people have endless respect for Ma Su. This general didn't say anything about his affairs. He was really useful and the battle was really won.
This is not much better than that cheater Ma Chao, who brought the Qiang Di Trilogy from Chang'an to Hanzhong. The strategic change along the way cost the lives of many Qiang soldiers, and the benefits were not much gained at all.
"It's nothing. The whole battle didn't make me feel the threat of death." Ma Su shook his head and couldn't help but feel speechless when he thought about his current situation.
It's been more than half a year since I traveled through time, and the most serious injury I suffered was when the fire dragon burned the warehouse. He has fought in more than a dozen battles, big and small, without even winning a prize. He is the king of dodge on the battlefield.
I don’t know if I can be selected to join the list of hardcore ruthless people in the future.
However, Ma Su's calm expression and tone allowed Shu Ji to interpret the true meaning.
This group of Wei people are nothing. I, Ma Su, all fell down before I even exerted my strength. That's it for them, there's no need to be afraid of a bunch of paper tigers.
Our horse general is mighty!
"General, shall we continue guerrilla warfare in Yongzhou next? Or return to Chencang Road?" Shu Ji suppressed the admiration in his heart and asked what to do next.
The Wei army in Yong County was hit by them, and it is estimated that the shadow will not be eliminated in this life. At this time, it is best to pursue the victory and fight several more such battles throughout Yongzhou to expand the psychological shadow area of the Wei people.
This will make everyone in Yongzhou fear you from the bottom of their hearts, and it will be much easier to conquer Yongzhou in the future.
This point can also be referred to Ma Chao, who has been rampant in Kansai for many years. When they attacked Longyou, the entire Longyou army was basically intimidated by its reputation, and few dared to resist.
If Ma Chao hadn't been so stupid in the end that he killed Tianshui after he surrendered, he probably wouldn't have been forced to surrender to Liu Bei in the middle of Shu, and he would have become the local emperor of Longyou no matter what.
However, Ma Su did not intend to do this because it was meaningless.
After this battle, the Wei army in Yongzhou was probably frightened, and this was enough. If he continues to fight here, he will not die. On the contrary, it will affect his original plan to defeat Chencang Road.
Of course, more importantly, Ma Su also killed and surrendered, so it is still impossible to threaten Yongzhou to surrender.
"Our purpose is to eliminate Chencang Road and force the puppet Wei Dynasty to give up the large-scale defense in Chencang. If we go to Yongzhou to guerrilla, we will be at odds with Guo Huai, but it will allow Hao Zhao to build the city with peace of mind." Ma Di shook his head and flatly refused accepted this proposal.
"If Chencang is not destroyed, it will be useless even if Yongzhou is afraid of our military might."
"Order all the troops to rest for a day. Tomorrow we will go south to cross the Qishui River again. We will continue to the Chencang Road!"
"only!"

While Ma Su's side was full of joy, Guo Huai's face was extremely gloomy at this time.
He never expected that Ma Su would do such a big job for him just a few days after he came out.
When he led his troops to prepare for the sweep, Ma Su not only did not run away, but stole his ass right under his nose.
The most important thing is that he actually succeeded in stealing it!
"Nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses were attacked by a thousand Qiang and Di cavalry at night in their camp, and nearly 5,000 people were lost!" Guo Huai's molars were almost broken, his eyes were red with anger, and he wanted to be executed immediately. That useless guard.
"Are you fucking losers! Let Ma Di rush so far and burn Yong County! This really embarrasses my Wei Dynasty's face!!"
"The camp outside the city was attacked, and one of his guards is hiding in the city fearing death. Do you think I won't kill him?!"
"General, General Han thinks that the Shu army has been planning for a long time and the target is the grain in Yong County..."
"Even if he has the help of ghosts and gods, he can't spread the beans into an army. How can we not find out if a large-scale Shu army has stolen it!!"
Guo Huai's face turned black with anger, and he felt like he was about to be pissed to death by the deputy general.
There are only a few ways out for the Shu army, so how many people can get out even if they sneak through them. You have more than 10,000 soldiers stationed in the state, are you still afraid of his few people?
But at the same time, Guo Huai's hatred for Ma Di rose to a new level. This bastard is really good at finding opportunities and his ears are really sensitive.
Not long after he led his troops to catch him, he had already come around behind him and gave him such a big surprise.
A night attack resulted in five thousand casualties and more than half of the soldiers were trampled on each other and burned to death. Such horrific battle losses were a huge blow to the entire northwest theater.
The most important thing is that he has no way to catch Ma Su. Now he must return to Yong County immediately to appease the tribe and stabilize people's hearts.
If chaos breaks out in Yongzhou, the current Chencang City will not be able to stop the Shu army from marching eastward. What's more, it's not just the Shu Han family who have been eyeing Yongzhou, the Qiang and Hu people in the north have also been eyeing this place for a long time.
The northwest defense, which was originally improved, was disrupted by Ma Su in just two months. In front of the other party, his own territory is like Lao Wang's neighbor next door. He can come and go as he pleases, but he can't catch it.
In Guo Huai's impression, the last time something like this happened was said to be Guan Yu Juebei Road in Jingzhou. At that time, he thought that the people in the south were really incompetent and allowed the enemy to sneak in under his nose.
Well now, the same thing happened in his jurisdiction, who can I ask to explain it?
"Send a letter to Hao Zhao and tell him that I can no longer help him destroy the Shu army." Guo Huai pondered for a long time and shook his head helplessly.
"I have to go back and stabilize Yongzhou. From now on, I can only deliver food once a month. He can figure out the rest by himself."
"Yongzhou is sparsely populated, and we have to guard against the Qiang and Hu people in the north. If we continue like this, it is estimated that the west of Xianyang will no longer be owned by the Wei Dynasty."
The management said that the novel needs points to get out of the circle, more comments, and so on. Readers will have time to say a few words, so that Shuzhong will have the illusion that it has taken off on its own!
(Today is too busy, there are only two chapters, five chapters will be released in three days when it is released on Friday!)
