?Ma Chao, who learned to endure and wait, finally realized that patience and waiting were the real success. "" When he changed defense with the Canglang Army who had arrived in Shanglu City in secret, Zhang Xiu only said one sentence to Ma Chao: "Canglang Army endured for three months and never attacked Han Sui. Killing his father's great revenge, Meng Qi will go and avenge himself!"

Zhang Xiu and Hu Cheer led their respective troops at the beginning, and were ordered to station in Lingju, the closest to Wuwei Guzang, Jincheng County. The original plan was that after the 10,000 infantry led by Gao Shun arrived at the designated location, they launched an attack on Han Sui. Because the Yizhou army suddenly invaded Wudu and disrupted the original deployment of Guan Yu and Jia Xu, the war on the Western Front was dragged to March of the fourth year of Guangxi.

After Zhao Xing handled a lot of chores in Wohu City, he turned his attention to Xiliang. Considering that Zhang Ren led the team in the Yizhou army that was attacking Wudu, Zhao Xing suggested that Guan Yu exchange Zhang Xiu and Ma Chao, and let Zhang Xiu, who was once the same brother of Zhang Ren, rush to Wudu. At the same time, he sent Ma Chao to Lingju to meet with Pang De, and the Xiliang army was the main force in the attack on Han Sui this time.

In his letter to his elder brother Guan Yu, Zhao Xing also emphasized that the task of attacking Han Sui was handed over to Ma Chao, Tian Yu, Gao Shun, Hu Cheer and others. Guan Yu and Jia Xu must be in charge of the Liang Palace and pay close attention to Huangfu Song's movements in Chang'an to ensure that Liang Kingdom will not be attacked suddenly. Once Huangfu Song has the intention of leading his army to attack Shangjun, Guan Yu can lead the vanguard army to attack Chang'an without asking the Huhu side.

The two armies of Sima Yi and Zhang Ren who were besieging Xiabian City have finally tasted the power of the vanguard army's Chongjian Division. Although there were only 5,000 troops of the Chongjian Division of Xiabian City, the mature and persistent Han Wei and Zhao Hu who were gradually healed, both of them resisted the 50,000 sieges of the Yizhou army several times.

When Zhao Xing appointed Zhao Hu, the brother of his clan, as the prefect of Wudu, his vision was long-term. When Zhao Hu arrived in Wudu, other political achievements might not be prominent, but his ability to build defensive fortifications was beyond his reach. Because of this, Xiabian City, where the capital of Wudu County was located, was built as solid as a rock by Zhao Hu, and the city even stored the bulk war preparation materials specially approved by Zhao Hu from Butler Liu.

With the solid city walls, sufficient supplies, and the rock-solid will of the officers and soldiers of the Heavy Infantry Division, Sima Yi and Zhang Ren could not do anything to Xiabiancheng! Of course, because Ma Chao led the cavalry to station Shanglu City not far from Xiabian, restraining the Yizhou army from the flank, which also led to a certain number of troops in Sima Yi and Zhang Ren's armies being responsible for preventing Ma Chao's sudden sneak attack. The assault of the Jin cavalry was not a joke.

After a period of adaptation, the pair of Ma Chao and Tian Yu, who were stationed in Shanglu City, had good senses. Ma Chao thought that Tian Yu was talented and knew cavalry warfare, and was the best military advisor of the Western Liang Army; Tian Yu felt that Ma Chao was persuaded, brave in fighting, and knew how to love soldiers. As the commander of the Western Liang Army, he could take on great responsibilities.

After entering Shanglu City, these two partners tried every means to make trouble for the Yizhou army. Ma Chao took advantage of the high mobility and strong assault power of the Xiliang army, and often led a commando of about two or three thousand people to live around Jieting, Hechi, and Xiabian city. He took advantage of the mountains near Wudu for easy concealment. He often touched the Yizhou army and slapped the black bricks, strictly followed the principle of running away after fighting, which made Zhang Ren and Sima Yi a little nervous.

Speaking of which, Ma Chao is so strange and changeable nowadays, thanks to Tian Yu's advice and the tactics he learned in the Chouhu Martial Arts Hall. Zhao Xing has a clear definition of this tactic of running away after fighting and annihilation of the enemy by mobile phone, that is, the famous "guerrilla warfare".

The Xiliang Army, which was learning and using guerrilla tactics, suffered a lot in just three months. Sima Yi and Zhang Ren, who were accustomed to fighting mountain wars and attacks, had to withdraw their troops from Xiabian City. Sima Yi stationed his troops into Hechi City, and Zhang Ren stationed his troops into Ju County. Therefore, the battlefield situation in Wudu became a tug-of-war situation where the guards and the Yizhou Army each occupied the city and defended their own truce and temporarily truce.

Han Wei and Zhao Hu, who were defending the city, saw that the Yizhou army finally withdrew, so they hurriedly asked for help from Gaoping. As a result, Zhang Xiu came and left Ma Chao, who had been secretly helping them.

The Canglang Army led by Zhang Xiu had 15,000 people, and the current military advisor was Tian Feng, a strategist who was firmly in front of the Zhaoxing Group. Their arrival played an immeasurable role in alleviating the tension in Wudu.

Tian Feng is worthy of being a first-class military advisor. After meeting Ma Chao and Tian Yu, he inquired in detail about the actions of the Xiliang Army over the past three months and the combat characteristics of the Yizhou Army. Then he suggested that Zhang Xiu continue to harass the Yizhou army stationed in Hechi and Ju County according to the guerrilla tactics used by Ma Chao, so that he could not understand his true intentions.

The Canglang Army led by Zhang Xiu was only higher than that of the Xiliang Army, with a total of 5,000 more people, and was even more like a fish in water in mobile combat. Zhang Xiu often led 5,000 light cavalry to patrol the territory of Wudu, and sometimes ran directly to the city of Ju County to challenge Zhang Ren, which was so angry that his senior brother stood on the top of the city and glared at him.

Several times Sima Yi wanted to ambush Zhang Xiu, but as soon as he led his army out of Hechi City, another mobile unit led by Tian Feng touched behind Sima Yi. Now Sima Yi realized that it was not certain who ambushed him. Tian Feng's old fox was really not easy to arrange troops. Sima Yi, who had been fooled several times, hid in Hechi City and never showed up again, and could not fight by Tian Feng's conspiracy.

Ma Chao, who left Wudu and led his army north, finally met Pang De in Didao City in Longxi County. When they met, they naturally had a bitter remark with red eyes. After seeing Pang De, Ma Chao met his clan brother Ma Dai again. Looking at Ma Dai who was wearing armor in front of him, who was already vaguely as a general, Ma Chao couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the years were ruthless. The brothers who were playing with wooden guns behind him have now grown into pioneer generals.

The prefect of Huawei, stationed in Longxi County, Ma Chao, Pang De, Tian Yu and Ma Dai, invited him to the mansion to host a banquet. After the banquet, Huawei State sent a letter to Ma Chao with a serious look on his face and said: "This letter is ordered by the lord to quickly send Ma to Longxi, and asked me to pass it on to Meng Qi in Longxi. In addition, the lord has an order that General Pang's troops will change weapons and equipment from now on. After completing the reorganization and personnel adjustment, he will go north with General Ma to the lord. The Western Liang army will wipe out Han Sui and his unit within three months to open up the trade route from Liang to the Western Regions!"

Ma Chao and Han Sui immediately stood up to receive the order, full of confidence in the task assigned by Zhao Xing.

After Ma Chao opened the secret letter and read it, he turned to the people in the room and said, "The Grand Tutor has already decided on three strategies to pacify Han. We only need to strictly implement it to easily defeat Wuwei!"

Ma Dai was anxious and asked, "I wonder what three strategies are there?"

Ma Chao replied: "The first strategy is to attack the mind. After we arrived in Wuwei, we called our old subordinates and projected flyers into the city to shake Han Sui's military morale; the second strategy is to alienate. My father had eight generals under his command, and now Liang Xing and the two candidates turned to Han Sui, Ma Wan, and Yang Qiu under General Pang. Although Cheng Yin, Li Kan, Zhang Heng, Cheng Yi and other four people were under Han Sui's tent, they did not necessarily support Han Sui and could implement a disagreement strategy. The third strategy is to cut off food. The supplies in Guzang City are scarce, and the food consumed by the soldiers and the people mainly relies on transportation from the Guanzhong area. As long as we continue to send troops to block Han Sui's logistics supply, there will be chaos in Guzang City within two months!"

Everyone nodded, thinking that the three strategies pointed out by Zhao Xing were feasible. ~ Please come to "《" when it comes to the first release without ads.
