Chapter 176: Cut off beard and abandon robe, Guanqiu Jian version

In this battle, Guanqiu Jian felt a little aggrieved that he had lost.

Although Guan Qiujian is indeed a talent, he figured out the method of fighting skirmishers after only one confrontation with Ma Su. If you give him more time and more opportunities to experience, it is not impossible to open Ma Su's eyes.

But, now that Guanqiu Jian is less than thirty, this is still a time to lead troops into battle. On the opposite side, Ma Su has been fighting with high intensity for more than two years since Jieting.

If a pig leads the troops in high-intensity fighting for two years, he can be considered a veteran as long as he doesn't die. As for Ma Su, who has a quick mind from time to time and has a solid foundation of military skills from his previous life, he can be considered a famous general.

As for Guanqiu Jian, he is still at the stage of talking about military affairs on paper, and he is still green in leading troops in war.

As a result, Guanqiu Jian was defeated outside Zhuyang City by Ma Su and hundreds of cavalrymen.

Ma Di led the Shu army to launch the final charge, and the entire army was at its most intense fighting spirit. Hundreds of cavalry generals were like fruit knives, cutting open the flesh of Wei Jun's peach very smoothly, and then cut the peach core into two halves.

But Guanqiu Jian could only watch helplessly, watching his army being split in two by the Shu army.

What a mess! The Wei army was completely in chaos!

As the Chinese army was defeated, the morale of the troops in the field, whose morale had already been low to the bottom, suddenly collapsed. Countless skirmishing formations dispersed in an instant, and even the commander of the camp took the lead in escaping.

At this moment, the disadvantages of the skirmishing formation were also reflected. He is too scattered. Although it is not easy to collapse, once it collapses, it is really impossible to gather it together.

Even if there are officers at the grassroots level who can barely hold on to their subordinates, they will be immediately dispersed by the neighboring broken troops.

It is impossible to say that there is an organized system when the rebel army is in retreat.

For a time, the Wei army was defeated, and in a chain reaction, the armored soldiers of the Chinese army also began to abandon their helmets, switch sides and flee. But they didn't have the chance to run very far, because Ma Su came back to fight in the blink of an eye.

"General Guanqiu! Run! The Shu army is coming towards us!" Guanqiu Jian's generals were frightened to death when they saw the Shu army rushing towards us. However, because Guan Qiu Jian was a good man, his generals did not disperse, but protected Guan Qiu Jian's retreat.

"General Wei, don't run away! Do you have the guts to fight with me but don't have the guts to leave your name?" Ma Di became more interested when he saw that the enemy general did not disperse after being defeated.

However, Ma Su's call received no response. Guan Qiujian just looked back at him and continued to run away.

Give your name? Although I am young, I am not stupid yet. Anyone who has reported his or her name in front of you, Ma Su, over the years will have his reputation plummeted.

When he saw that General Wei was ignoring him, Ma Su was immediately unhappy. He was beaten to such an extent that he was such a bullshit!

"Generals, listen! Whoever can capture the fake Wei general alive will be rewarded ten thousand yuan!" Ma Di turned his head and ordered fiercely.

"Don't worry about defaulting on the bill, the Prime Minister will reimburse us!"

"General! Who are you going to arrest?" At the mention of this, the cavalry generals below became excited and howled for the general to name them.

"Did you see the man in red robe in front?" Ma Di pointed at Guanqiu Jian among the chaos, and was about to give an order. As a result, Guanqiu Jian's hand moved slightly, and the red robe fell down.

grass! What a decisive move!

"Forget it, let's look at the one with the short beard!... That man!"

"My dear Ma Su, please don't go too far!" Guan Qiujian pulled off the brocade silk wrapped around his neck and said angrily.

"The Shu thieves don't deserve to know the name of General Wei! Get out of here!"

"Haha, General Wei, do you dare to stop and show me some tricks!" Ma Su sneered, and among the thousands of troops, he still chased after Guanqiu Jian.

"Oh, I don't dare!" Guanqiu Jian's expression froze for a moment, then he put away his anger and turned around and continued running.

He definitely wouldn't dare to stop, and Guanqiu Jian wasn't stupid either. No matter how reluctant he was to admit it, he had to admit that Ma Su was indeed more than a little better than him.

No wonder Zhuge Dan, his good friend, dared not take a single step in the face of this man, preferring to have a bad reputation on the street and be a coward. If he had any hope of winning, how could Zhuge Dan, who cherishes feathers, be so cowardly?

The two sides pursued each other for more than ten miles, but in the end Ma Su still failed to catch up.

It's not that Ma Su's debuff has appeared, but that the horse really can't run anymore.

Even though Ma Su and his cavalry were able to compress and defeat the Wei army so easily, the distance they covered was not a small amount. Thanks to Ma Su who spared money to train his own tribe and used all good horses. Otherwise, half of the horses would have to lie down before half of the race.

But even so, Ma Su could not catch up with Guan Qiu Jian. He could only watch helplessly as Guanqiu Jian and his troops turned around in confusion, but he had no strength to use on his side.

Not only that, when we returned to the riverside and counted them, we found that more than 300 horses alone were dead, not counting the loss of cavalry. The Qiang Di veterans who followed Ma Su suffered huge losses in this battle, with nearly 300 people buried on the battlefield.

This was Lao Ma's biggest loss since the Battle of Jieting, and it almost stabbed Ma Su in the heart.

"TMD! Don't let me know what that coward's name is!" Ma Su secretly vowed to retaliate to the person who made him suffer a big loss for the first time.

Of course, Ma Su was not the only one who swore poisonous oaths. Guanqiu Jian also survived the disaster and was extremely angry.

His losses in this battle were so great that Guanqiu Jian began to consider whether he should recruit strong men to join the army.

He has a total of 30,000 soldiers and horses, and 2,000 armored warriors. They are a temporary tribe raised from Yuzhou. But even so, nearly 10,000 soldiers in the field were killed, injured and missing in battle, and half of the soldiers were lost.

With such a huge loss, I am afraid that even if he, Guanqiu Jian, is His Majesty's confidant, he will be severely punished.

"Ma Su! This is my lifelong enemy! He and I are sworn in!" Guan Qiujian gritted his teeth angrily after seeing all the losses.

"General Guanqiu, what should we do next?" all the generals asked.

The losses in this battle were so great that it was definitely impossible for Guanqiu Jian to fight Ma Su again. The question now is where should the defeated soldiers retreat.

"Let's go back to Wancheng first..." After Guanqiu Jian calmed down, he was silent for a long time and made his decision.

"Ma Di likes to take risks at first glance. If he attacks Wancheng again like he did in Xiangyang, Wei Nanyang will be in danger."

This is definitely not because Guanqiu Jian is afraid that his horse will attack the camp thousands of miles away, absolutely not!

Guanqiu Jian was defeated in the first battle and moved thousands of miles to Wancheng without saying a word. But with his departure, Xincheng County is basically an obvious abandonment.

Zhuyang has been lost, how can you still hold on to Xincheng County?

Li Fu, who was waiting hard for Guan Qiujian on the front line of Xincheng County, was in despair, but the reinforcements were delayed in arriving. In the end, after Li Fu figured it out, he directly chose to abandon the army and flee, taking only a few close men with him over the mountains.

But it didn't work very well. He didn't go very far and was captured by Zhang He and his men.

Fangling was broken, and Xincheng County's last barrier against Shangyong was captured.

However, not long after Zhao Yun and Zhang He entered Fangling, they welcomed a person.

Zhuge Liang's former military governor, Zhang Yi, arrived with orders from the prime minister.
