Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Although Ma Teng was shocked by Huang Zhongyi Conghu's rebellion, he did not take it seriously.

He used to work as a military Sima under the former governor's Geng Bi. At that time, Liangzhou soldiers were mostly recruits, and their combat effectiveness was weak due to lack of training. However, now he has 8,000 elite soldiers with strong combat effectiveness and packed a small Huang Zhongyi. Isn't Hu from hand to catch?

Zhou Mu was passing through Yongzhou to capture Chang'an. It was a critical time, and he must not let Zhou Mu be distracted.

"School lieutenant, soon is the city of Hefei." Joining the army Chenggongying rode up from behind and said to Ma Teng.

Ma Teng nodded: "Let's take a rest at Hefan City, fill up the forage, and after a short rest, advance to Deshun City."

"Here."

The eight thousand Liangzhou soldiers heard that they were able to rest when they arrived at the Hefan City. Their morale, which had fallen slightly due to the rapid march, rebounded, and immediately accelerated their march towards Hefan City.

"Report, less than twenty miles ahead, there is an unknown number of enemy troops." A scout rushed back and reported to Ma Teng.

"Continue to march." Ma Teng nodded, but did not stop, but ordered eight thousand Liangzhou soldiers to speed up the march. Since the enemy is so short-sighted, he will simply break the enemy and rest.

Eight thousand Liangzhou soldiers galloped forward, and a Hu Qi rushed forward from a distance. The distance between the two armies became closer and closer, and there were only a few hundred steps left between each other.

Ma Teng held a gun in his hand and shouted: "Stop!"

The slightly noisy footsteps and the sound of horseshoes instantly became quiet. The eight thousand Liangzhou soldiers deserved to be well-trained elites. They were forbidden. Hearing Ma Teng's order, he immediately stopped marching.

"Array."

The eight thousand soldiers stopped abruptly, and then approached each other, forming a dense formation.

Ma Teng glanced at it, and his rich military experience made him see it. The opposite was only four or five thousand horses.

"The swordsmen and spearmen line up, the bows and crossbows are on the strings, the cavalry is on standby!"

Each of the eight thousand Liangzhou soldiers obeyed their orders. The sword and shield players in the front row skillfully raised the large shields and connected them to form a solid shield wall. Above, the crossbowmen in the back row opened their bows and arrows, pointing diagonally to the sky, while the three thousand cavalry in the back row stood still, divided into two parts on the left and right, and stood by at all times.

The four or five thousand Hu Qi on the opposite side saw Ma Tengjun from a distance, and immediately under the leadership of a general Hu, he rushed over in a messy manner.

With the horse galloping, Hu Qi entered the shooting range, and Ma Teng waved his arm without hesitation.

"The enemy reaches one hundred and fifty steps, and the crossbowmen shoot!"

Beng Beng Beng!

Thousands of arrows were ready to be launched, and as the bowstring shook, they immediately let go, tracing an arc in the air, and descending towards Hu Qi's coverage.

The Hu Jiang Jiligulu didn't know what to shout, and the five thousand Huqis who charged in the line immediately raised their arms. They were proficient in riding and shooting, and they were able to block the falling arrows with a circular leather shield.

Hundreds of Hu men fell from the horse, but most of the arrows were blocked by them raising the round leather shield.

Hu Jiang roared with a sullen face, and thousands of Hu riders immediately raised their riding bows skillfully, and on horsebacks, they bent their bows and shot.

"Hold your shield!"

Seeing a piece of arrow covering down, Ma Teng hurriedly called out. The shields in the formation immediately lifted up to block the rain of arrows, but it is inevitable that the angled arrows shot into the gap between the shields. There was a few muffled sounds of Liangzhou soldiers.

Hu Qi has always been good at riding and shooting since he was a child. Therefore, the crossbowmen in the Liangzhou army kept shooting, while the Hu people on the opposite side fought back with shooting.

The two sides each shot a few rounds of arrow rain. Hu Qi saw that he was close, and immediately retracted the bow and took the knife. The long and narrow saber reflected the cold light of the scorching sun, revealing a cold air.

The moving Hu Qijun array slammed into the Liangzhou Army formation. The long and narrow saber and the sharp spear launched a life-and-death contest. The spears pierced Hu Qi's horse, and the saber cut the cold. The head of the state soldier.

Seeing Hu Qi rushing forward, Ma Teng waved his spear immediately, signaling the cavalry on standby to charge immediately, cutting off Hu Qi's back path.

The three thousand cavalry divided into two parts saw Ma Teng's command, and they rushed out without hesitation. The three thousand cavalry rushed out from the left and right wings like two huge scimitars, sharply thrusting into Hu Qi's formation.

The two Liangzhou cavalrymen suddenly entered the enemy's formation, and Hu Qi was shocked. As a result, the front and the left and right enemy forces surrounded him, and Hu Qi almost fell into an encirclement that was difficult to break free.

Ma Teng immediately ordered the army to shrink the front and gather to oppress the enemy.

This Hu Jiang also had some brains. He saw that he was caught in the encirclement, and immediately shouted: "Don't entangle with the Han army, retreat, retreat!"

Thousands of Huqis were all light cavalry, coming and going freely, roaring like the wind, heard the command of the leader, turned around and left without a word, the rear team turned into the front team, although hundreds of horses died in the battle, they managed to escape. Surrounded by Liangzhou soldiers.

"The cavalry chased, the infantry followed, and today we must wipe out this group of Hu Qi."

Two three thousand iron horses were combined into one, biting Hu Qi's buttocks firmly, chasing after the tail. Hu Qi turned his head and shot from time to time, but the three thousand Liangzhou cavalry were not afraid, but chased straight forward with endless troops.

And Ma Teng personally sat in the army, and the five thousand steppers also slowly followed up.

"Brother Shoucheng, our army is now a tired army, don't we need to take a rest?" Cheng Gongying asked with some worry.

Ma Teng waved his hand disapprovingly: "Brother Cheng, Hu Qi is defeated. Now is a good time to completely annihilate the enemy. We must not let it go. Moreover, our army is elite with hundreds of battles, and we fought against Han Sui 100,000 cavalry. What's the point of being able to fight hard and persist?"

Hearing what Ma Teng said, Cheng Gongying couldn't refute for a while, so he nodded.

"kill!"

After a big victory, the exhaustion caused by the Liangzhou soldiers' rush marching suddenly disappeared, and they wanted to catch the Hu Qi in front of them. The two armies ran in front and the other chased after. Hu Qi was terrified. He kept throwing away food and everything along the way. He didn't know how many things were left behind.

tread! As soon as the horse galloped past, the horse under the crotch stepped a flag into the mud, and the thousands of horses that followed did not pay any attention to it. They stepped on the past and stepped on the Huren's flag. Deep into the mud, only one corner was exposed, covered with dust.

The Liangzhou iron cavalry were brave, and they all rushed forward, lest they lose the credit behind others, the shouts are endless. At the beginning, Ma Teng was worried that Hu Qi might be defeated and lure the enemy into deep, so he deliberately divided the army into two.
