Chapter 332
Kubi came to ask for a fight, Guo Kan was unwilling to compete with the Han generals in his heart, so he finally nodded in agreement.Immediately, Guo Kan's expression changed, and he regained the aura that the peerless commander who swept the Western Regions for several months should have. He asked in a deep voice, "Ma Chao, Zhao Yun and [-] cavalry, how many troops and horses did you lead to meet the enemy?"

Kubilai clasped his hands and said, "The general will give me five thousand cavalry from the headquarters, and I will kill every single one of them!"

"Five thousand cavalry?" Guo Kan frowned. Zhao Yun and Ma Chao had eight thousand cavalry. Guo Kan also did a lot of homework before coming here. It's even.

When Lu Bu was in Bingzhou, he was known as a flying general, and his bravery was daunting.Lü Bu led the Bingzhou wolf cavalry, and the alien race in Hetao dared not go south, and the alien race feared Lu Bu like a tiger.It can be said that the combat effectiveness of the Bingzhou wolf cavalry is not weaker than their cavalry, or even stronger.Baima Yicong was able to compete with the Bingzhou wolf cavalry, presumably his combat effectiveness was not much different from that of his own cavalry.

However, Ma Chao's javelin cavalry has a completely different combat style from ordinary cavalry, which is often hard to guard against.Its Roman tactics have been integrated with the Han Dynasty for a hundred years, and the cavalry of the Ma family has also independently developed its own combat method.It's just that the infantry that cooperated with the cavalry has been destroyed. As long as he is prepared against the javelin, in Guo Kan's view, although Ma Chao's [-] cavalry is large, it is not a big threat.

But Kubilai led [-] cavalry to fight, the number was just right in Guo Kan's opinion, and the strength of the two sides was not much different.No matter which side, they will not be defeated, and Ma Chao and Zhao Yun know that they have led their troops to Guzang, and the news that Ma Teng is dead, they will definitely choose to retreat.It is what Guo Kan is happy to see to be able to live in peace,

However, although Guo Kan couldn't bear to fight with Han generals, he paid more attention to Temujin's feelings, and the cavalry under him were all his brothers.It is okay to leave it to Kubilai to command, but there must be no problems!So Guo Kan thought for a moment and said: "Okay, I will give you five thousand cavalry, you will be the chief general, and Master Jebie will be your deputy general, and lead the troops to meet the enemy!"

"Thank you, General, for your trust!" Kubilai said happily.

"But I have a few things to tell you, you must listen carefully!" Guo Kan said in a deep voice.

"General, please speak!"

"Well, Ma Chao and Zhao Yun have a total of [-] cavalry. Among them, the white horse Yi Cong led by Zhao Yun should not be underestimated, and Zhao Yun's bravery is comparable to Lu Bu of Bingzhou back then. You must not show off your bravery and fight with them!"

"Secondly, the javelins under Ma Chao's command are horribly lethal. You should not attack them directly, and avoid their sharp edges when facing the javelins!"

After Guo Kan said these two points, he looked at Kubilai, and Kubilai listened carefully, nodded and said: "I have written it down, general, don't worry!"

"Go, I heard from General Yan Xing earlier that Zhao Yun and others should arrive in Guzang early tomorrow morning, so make preparations in advance!" Guo Kan waved his hands.

"Yes, the last general will leave!" Kubilai gave the order to go out, and Jebe and Kudusi also went out to prepare.Niu Fu and Han Sui naturally didn't want to miss this battle, so they went out with a few others, planning to join in the fun together tomorrow morning.

On the same day Yeyan, on the north bank of the Yellow River, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao led the cavalry across the Yellow River.Travel northward for twenty miles and camp here to rest.Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Pang De, Li Yuanfang, and Xia Houlan sat together, and their expressions were slightly heavy.

Zhao Yun took the lead and said: "Brothers, Yan Xing returned to Guzang and told Han Sui Niu Fu that they had [-] infantry and nearly [-] cavalry under their command. I am afraid that they have already made preparations at this moment. They have set up an ambush and are waiting for us to rescue Ma Teng. It will be a fierce battle then!"

"As the saying goes, don't think about victory, but first think about defeat! I, Zhao Yun, came to Liangzhou with Bai Mayi. In order to rescue Ma Teng, I, Zhao Yun, would have no complaints even if I died in battle. But if our brothers die in vain , How can I be worthy of the emperor, their parents, wives and children? So we have to think of a perfect plan! Leave a way out!"

After hearing this, Pound nodded and looked at Ma Chao and begged in a low voice: "Major General, if you can't do anything tomorrow, please focus on the overall situation. After all, the Lord gave up his own life to let you break out, isn't it just for the sake of Leave these cavalry, leave the fire of the Ma family?"

Ma Chao's face hurt when he heard this, and he nodded lightly and said: "Okay, if I really can't save my father tomorrow, I won't be arrogant. If things change, I will take my brothers to break through!"

Zhao Yun's expression was relieved when he heard this. What he worried most was Ma Chao's youthful temperament and his impulsiveness. If Ma Teng could not be rescued tomorrow, but would be surrounded by his army instead, Ma Chao would be in trouble if he did not retreat.After hearing Ma Chao's words now, Zhao Yun secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Several people sat around and discussed how to deal with tomorrow's big battle. As the saying goes, three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang.The abilities of these five people can be considered extraordinary, and with the collective efforts of the five people, they also came up with a perfect plan.

The next day, when the sky was slightly bright and the earth was still dark, Ma Chao and Zhao Yun led the cavalry to the northwest!However, the cavalry led by him was only [-] cavalry, and Pang De and Xia Houlan did not follow them. It seemed that they had other missions.

At the same time, in Guzang City, Kubilai Jebe also rushed to the southeast with [-] cavalry!According to the city and guard?That's not the character of a Mongolian man. Since Kubi came to ask for a fight, he will lead his sons out to fight, and defeat Zhao Yun and Ma Chao with an upright and upright teacher!
I saw five thousand Mongolian cavalry, each holding a sharp blade. Their weapons were not uniform, some were short knives, and some were spears.But what is very uniform is the war horses, the standard Mongolian horses, they are slightly shorter than the Xiliang war horses, and the war horses have big heads and short necks.

This Mongolian horse can adapt to difficult environments, and its endurance and speed are top-notch!Temujin relied on this kind of war horse to conquer various places.In addition, each cavalryman carried a bow on his body, and immediately hung several large bags made of fur filled with arrows.

At this time, the Mongolian cavalry had just risen. Although it was powerful, its tribe was not rich. Many places had been improved, but its equipment was not very good.There were not many heavy cavalry used by Temujin as the main force in later generations, and most of them were in Temujin's place.

Most of the [-] cavalry were light cavalry, and their main method of combat was to harass and lure the enemy over long distances. They used bows and arrows as their main weapon. The heavy cavalry was only about [-], wearing leather armor, and the main parts of their horses were wrapped with iron sheets.Its main weapon is a spear, with a dagger or a short-handled mace pinned to its waist.Most of the light cavalry only had simple helmets and leather armor.

However, these five thousand cavalry are in the peak of military glory, full of confidence.The fierce aura is daunting, and the actions are consistent, without any slack. It can be predicted that the military discipline of the Mongolian cavalry is not inferior to that of Liu Bian's troops.

However, Kubilai followed Temujin in many battles and victories. Now he has forgotten the importance of tactics and wants to defeat Zhao Yun and Ma Chao head-on with strength. It has to be said that he underestimates the enemy.

The two sides traveled thirty miles each, and at ten minutes in the morning, they met on a narrow road in the wilderness!

The cavalry on both sides were less than three miles away when they heard the sound of horseshoes from the opposite side. On Zhao Yun's side, Zhao Yun and the others looked strange. There are [-] cavalry left, and I'll wait for [-], they suffered a big loss last time, so they won't dare to take the initiative to attack!"

Ma Chao was also puzzled. If he came to use troops, he should set up an ambush under Guzang City, firmly guard the gate of Guzang City, and use the advantage of [-] infantry to deal with his own cavalry.What the hell is this proactive attack?Could it be that Niu Fu Han Sui set off in the middle of the night and brought his infantry to meet him?Aren't you afraid that your father will go out of the city to break through?

With a hint of doubt, Zhao Yun waved his hand, and scouts stepped forward to inspect, but after a while, the flying horse reported back to Zhao Yun: "General, there are about five thousand cavalry ahead, but all of them are foreign cavalry! I can't understand the barbaric language!"

"Foreign race? Could it be that Guo Kan has arrived! Then isn't my father?" Ma Chao's expression changed drastically, and he hurried forward.

"Don't be impulsive!" Zhao Yun changed his face and wanted to call Ma Chao to stop, but Ma Chao was eager to miss his father and had already rushed out.After Zhao Yun thought for a while, he quickly led the cavalry to follow. Last night, several people came up with some ideas. If the opponent was only [-] cavalry, with the same strength, Zhao Yun was not worried that he would not be the opponent.

Kubilai on the opposite side also sent people to inquire, and learned that the cavalry on the opposite side was Ma Chao and Zhao Yun, Kubilai said happily: "It really is Ma Chao and Zhao Yun, come and let me go, today I want to see how many Han cavalrymen are there." Powerful, it defeated the Huns back then!"

But after a while, Ma Chao rushed out with his horse, and bumped into the five thousand Mongolian cavalry who came from the opposite side.

Ma Chao was fearless, and immediately threw his gun in front of the battle and shouted: "Who are you!"

Kubilai rode out on his horse, came out and said, "I am Kubilai, one of the four pioneers under the command of Temujin Chanyu of Mongolia, who are you!"

"A small foreign tribe dares to call itself a country? I am your grandfather Ma Chao. Today I want to see what you, a pioneer general, can do!" Ma Chao shouted in a deep voice.

"Ignorant boy, I want you to go down to accompany your father today, who can take this man down for me!" Because Ma Chao was one step ahead, Li Feisha was extremely fast, and Zhao Yun's brigade was still two miles away, although Kubi would come to listen At the sound of cavalry galloping behind Ma Chao, they did not order the soldiers and horses to cover up and kill, but chose to fight.

Previously, Guo Kan only made himself wary of Zhao Yun's bravery and Ma Chao's cavalry javelins, but he didn't let himself be careful of Ma Chao.From Kubilai's point of view, Ma Chao was just a child who was still immature, and he looked down on him before, so Kubilai chose to fight in the future to promote the military power of Mongolian men.

No sooner had Kubilai finished speaking, Ma Chao's expression changed and he shouted angrily, "What did you say? What's wrong with my father?"

Kubilai didn't answer Ma Chao, and after he died, he rode his horse and rushed out, waving a mace in his hand, and rushed towards Ma Chao.

"Young child, look at me, Kudusi, coming to kill you!" The fierce general turned out to be Kubilai's brother, Kudusi!
It's just that Ma Chao's mind was in a mess at the moment, seeing Kudusi rushing, he still shouted angrily, "What's wrong with my father?"

When Guo Kan came, Guzang City had already run out of ammunition and food on the day Ma Chao broke through. Ma Chao had vaguely guessed what would happen to Ma Teng, but he just didn't dare to think about it.

Seeing Kudusi rushing towards him with a ferocious face, Ma Chao's face was ferocious, his eyes were bloodshot and he shouted: "Ah, I want you to pay for my father's life!"
