Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 1187: Taishi Ci's Response

"Instruct all the generals to come to the Chinese army's tent!" Taishi Ci looked excited. Since he was not sure whether there were Ma Chao's soldiers and horses on the mountains on both sides, he used fire to conduct a thorough investigation.

After receiving Tai Shici's order, all the generals rushed to the Chinese army's tent without any hesitation.

"You are all the most capable generals in the Chang'an Army, but now I have encountered a problem. Some people must already know the terrain of the West Wolf Valley. How can I detect whether there are enemy troops on the mountains on both sides of the West Wolf Valley?

The top priority is that the army of the Marquis of Jin will arrive in five days, and I don’t want the vanguard army to be trapped outside the West Wolf Valley after the Marquis of Jin leads the army."

However, all generals who go to the big tent have a certain status in the vanguard army. Different from ordinary soldiers, they will consider the problem more comprehensively.

"General, in the opinion of my subordinates, you can send more scouts to the mountains on both sides to find out information." A general said.

Taishi Ci shook his head slightly and said: "The West Wolf Valley is extremely difficult to explore. Now I, the general, have thought of a good strategy."

When the generals in the tent heard this, they all straightened their chests with excitement. They were originally generals in the Bingzhou Army. Their desire for merit on the battlefield was naturally beyond the reach of ordinary generals. They were not afraid of the war, but they were afraid of the start of the war.

Without them, just like when the Jingzhou Army attacked Jiguan, there were still many Bingzhou Army left in Chang'an. One can imagine the mood of the generals who were left behind in the Chang'an Army.

"Except for the cavalry and necessary soldiers, the rest of the soldiers should collect dry firewood and strive to gather more dry firewood during lunch." Taishi Ci suddenly ordered.

"Gathering dry firewood?" Some generals did not react to the sudden change. Could it be that gathering dry firewood was what Tai Shici called a good strategy?

"Since the enemy troops have hid in the mountains, I, the general, will use fire to roast them out. The trees on the mountains are not easy to ignite now, but it will be different once we have dry firewood." Taishi Ci said slowly.

The generals in the army talked excitedly after hearing this. They even imagined what the enemy troops in the West Wolf Valley would look like under a fire.

"The soldiers of each department collected dry firewood and counted it among their military merits," Tai Shi said lovingly.

After returning to the various ministries from the Central Army's tent, the soldiers of each ministry began to frantically collect dry firewood. They were involved in military achievements. They did not dare to sacrifice their lives, otherwise even Pao Ze would not agree.

After the news of Taishi Ci's army reached Ma Chao's ears, Ma Chao showed a puzzled look. Taishi Ci was the vanguard of the army. The most important thing at the moment was to find out the road from Chang'an to Xiabian. Judging from the current posture, it was clear

I didn’t want to enter the West Wolf Valley.

Ma Chao was sure that Taishi Ci would not give up the road from Xilang Valley easily, otherwise, the army would need to take a longer detour.

"General, the enemy has been collecting dry firewood for half a day, and is now transporting the dry firewood to Xilang Valley." A general ran over in a hurry.

Ma Chao's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and he said coldly: "What a Taishi Ci, he actually thought of such a despicable method, and ordered the generals of the army to prepare to retreat."

"General, why do you want to withdraw?" The other generals looked puzzled when they heard this.

Ma Chao snorted coldly: "If we don't retreat, just wait and warm up in the West Wolf Valley."

Although the West Wolf Valley stretches for nearly five miles, under a fire, the mountain walls on both sides were barren of grass. The vanguard army could even feel the heat when walking in the valley. As a result, the enemy troops were hidden on both sides of the valley.

It is even more impossible to go sideways. Although it took two days to wait outside the West Wolf Valley, Tai Shici thought it was worth it.

One day later, Taishi Ci led the vanguard army and appeared outside Hechi City.

Among the 5,000 men in the vanguard army, at least 3,000 were soldiers who had recently joined the army. Naturally, many of them had outstanding performance. The generals above the rank of lieutenant colonel were former generals in the Bingzhou Army.

Although the training time was not long, the morale displayed by the Chang'an army was extremely high, especially the orderly pace and formation of the lieutenants and officers, which put a lot of pressure on the defenders of Hechi.

Although Wudu has experienced many wars over the years, it has experienced very few fierce battles. It is reasonable for the defenders to show fear when facing the Chang'an Army with such a neat military appearance.

Ma Chao was furious when he saw that the enemy troops were so arrogant outside the city. He immediately ordered two thousand cavalry to leave the city. These two thousand cavalry were also the strength that Ma Chao relied on. Naturally, he knew what Wudu's army looked like, although there were seven thousand cavalry.

With the rest of the people, it would be difficult to stop the 20,000 Chang'an Army.

The city gates were wide open, and Ma Chao led two thousand cavalry to form a formation outside the city.

After Taishi Ci saw the city gate open, he ordered the soldiers in the army to form their troops. He knew very well what kind of ability Ma Chao had.

Ma Chao rode forward slowly and said: "I am the governor of Wudu, and so is Ma Chao. Whose army is there? Why did the innocent invade the city?"

Seeing Ma Chao appear, Taishi Ci's eyes tightened. It must be said that Ma Chao's appearance was absolutely impeccable. Coupled with his white robe, he looked majestic and chic.

Seeing this, Taishi Ci rode forward on his horse with both halberds in hand and shouted: "Bold Ma Chao, I am Taishi Ci, the general under the command of the Marquis of Jin. You rebels have occupied Wudu. Do you want to resist the general's troops?"

"What great general? I have heard that Lu Bu is a traitor to the Han Dynasty." Ma Chao said disdainfully.

Taishi Ci narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this and said in a cold voice: "I have heard that General Ma is very skilled in martial arts. I wonder if you can give me some advice?"

Ma Chao was secretly happy. His plan was to lead his troops out of the city to anger the enemy general. If the two sides killed the vanguard general of the Chang'an Army in a fierce battle outside the city, it would definitely be a huge encouragement to the defenders inside the city.

What he didn't expect was that before he could mention the matter, Taishi Ci couldn't hold it in anymore. Ma Chao didn't see anger in Taishi Ci's expression, but only dissatisfaction in his tone, so he secretly increased his vigilance.

"I have heard, General Taishi, that General Taishi is one of the Eight Heroic Generals under Lu Bu's command. I, the General, have longed for the reputation of the Eight Heroic Generals for a long time." Ma Chao said cynically.

"Ma Chao, hurry up and die!" Taishi Ci waved the two halberds in his hands and rode his horse towards Taishi Ci.

In the eyes of outsiders, Taishi Ci might have attacked Ma Chao out of anger, but Ma Chao didn't think so. After the three-way fight, Ma Chao's expression was full of solemnity. He felt the power of Taishi Ci's halberd technique, and couldn't help but let him

He remembered Dian Wei who had fought against him.

Dian Wei's double halberd moves focus on wide opening and closing. In comparison, Tai Shi Ci's halberd technique is a bit weak, but it gives people a sense of subtlety.
