Chapter 2737: Many people do many things
The sky is gradually getting brighter.
?Some people like the dark night and think it is their cover, but there are also people who like the light and think the light is the future.
?Gao Shun rode his horse forward slowly, with the flag behind him, "The Great Han''s Western Region Colonel"!
The red flag fluttered high, like surging blood.
Gao Shun raised his head and looked at the morning sun.
?The sky is clear, as if all the clouds and dust in this area have been deliberately wiped away, leaving a piece of pure land.
Gao Shun''s bodyguard moved closer and said, "General, let me take the lead in this charge!" 』
Lü Bu is getting older, and so is Gao Shun.
Since ancient times, beautiful women are like famous generals, and they are not allowed to grow old in the world.
As beautiful women are like this, so are famous generals.
?Gao Shun is not the same young brave general who was seriously injured back then and was still able to charge ahead. He also has long-standing injuries and hidden dangers. These injuries cannot be fully recovered unconditionally after the war.
Gao Shun''s confidant guards naturally know what kind of pain there is under the scars on Gao Shun''s body.
Gao Shun smiled, shook his spear, and the **** red tassel bloomed, "To kill Han, just fight in front of the formation!" The Han people should stand in the Han world! At a time of such loyalty, I will do my duty! Just follow me! 』
The confidant guards bowed their heads and said, "I will obey the general''s order!" 』
Gao Shun’s eyes were as sharp as an eagle, looking into the distance.
He did not attack blindly, nor did he give up suicidally. He sent scouts to explore the situation of the horse thieves, and learned about the loose arrangement and chaotic leadership of the horse thieves.
Having more people does not necessarily mean you are strong, and having few people does not necessarily mean you are weak.
??When Gao Shun followed Lu Bu, Lu Bu was not the most powerful prince either.
Killing the horse thieves, after confirming the victory of this battle and ensuring that Xihai City will not be invaded, killing the enemy chief in the battle, and then seizing the horse thieves'' horses to obtain additional supplies, this is what Gao Shun feels he can accept happily. result.
Other than that, Gao Shun was unwilling to accept other results.
In order to get this result, of course you have to put in all your efforts!
Gao Shun raised his head slightly, looked at the figure looming in the distance, and immediately raised his arm to signal, "The whole army is ready!" Aiming at that thief! Attack! 』
??The horse thieves were so scattered, but the rear army actually...
Gao Shun and others'' speed gradually increased. They ignored the horse thieves running around the outside and rushed straight towards the erected banner of "Practice for Heaven"!
At this time, the sporadic horse thieves in the distance also spotted Gao Shun''s figure. However, the horse thieves were horse thieves after all. They did not issue a warning immediately, but stood there stupidly, and then ran away in disorder, shouting. It started to move, and after a while it seemed that the horse thief screamed a warning...
?These horse thieves had no idea that Gao Shun would advance so boldly and launch an attack at dawn!
?It was only then that these horse thieves heard the dull sound of horse hooves.
Needless to say, Gao Shun must have led these cavalrymen, putting linen and soft wadding on the horses'' hooves, marching silently in the dark night, until they approached the horse thieves, and saw that their formations were scattered, and they were busy preparing to eat and drink. , launched a raid!
The horse thieves on duty at night slipped back early to catch up on their sleep. The other horse thieves seemed to have not yet opened their sleepy eyes. By the time Gao Shun and others attacked with murderous intent, all the war horses had gradually improved to their best posture. Only when the speed reached those horse thieves did they realize that this group of steel beasts that were charging at them turned out to be the Han army!
?The horse thieves’ shrill cries kept coming and going.
It’s the Han army! 』
‘The Han army is coming! 』
‘Didn’t you say that the Han army has been defeated? 』
『Damn, we were cheated! 』
?Some horse thieves shot arrows at Gao Shun and others in a scattered manner, but the arrows were slanted, just like the weeds on the Gobi Desert, one in the east and one in the west, with no lethality at all.
?A thousand horse thieves often have ten thousand thoughts.
Matthew’s plan actually did not unfold smoothly either. Although Matthew and Taksa have a good idea, it is very difficult to implement it in practice. When Matthew and Taksa wanted to arrange their troops, they discovered that these horse thieves either didn''t understand military formations at all, or they did understand but pretended not to understand.
??When Matthew asked these people to protrude their wings, form an encirclement, and make a more or less decent ambush, many of the horse thief leaders stared at Matthew, and then looked at Matthew blankly or pretending to be blank...
Why were those Hu leaders able to do it?
?Maodun, Tanshihuai, and so and so, why can they gather together the tribes that are also almost scattered and command them like an arm?
Why do all kinds of problems arise when I talk about plans and assign tasks to these horse thieves commanders?
Highlight the two wings?
don''t know.
Map?
can''t read.
Ambush?
I don’t understand either.
Let’s all follow the horse leader anyway!
?Wherever the horse leaders and General Taksa go, we will go!
?As a result, none of the original plans could be realized, and the horse thief was like a bloated fat man, confused and staggering into a ball.
Interception! "Ma Xiu shouted, "Let the third thief, Cheng Datou, intercept it! 』
Matthew''s men panicked and found Thief Lao San and other horse bandit leaders. However, after receiving the order, the horse bandit leaders superficially agreed, but did not move at all.
?No one is a fool, even if the horse thieves can''t read words, maps, or even their own accounts, absolutely everyone of them can understand people''s hearts.
What is "doing justice for heaven"?
??This is just an excuse for Matthew to take the opportunity to reorganize the ranks of these horse thieves in the Western Regions...
If Matthew can really provide some benefits, then these horse thieves don''t care about having another nominal leader, but Matthew obviously doesn''t want to provide any real benefits. He just gives some meat and wine, creating a so-called "walking for heaven" Where can this be the banner?
In later generations, Bald Qiang gave money and guns, and continued to cause troubles openly and covertly, but failed to regain the warlords of China, big and small. Ma Xiu didn''t give anything at this time, and he still thought that these horse thieves could be obedient. possible?
?So, only a few stupid horse thieves really shouted and yelled to intercept Gao Shun, but they were quickly beaten by Gao Shun and others and fell into the flying yellow sand and dust.
?Gao Shun shouted, and the soldiers under his command raised their swords and guns and ran directly into the line of horse thieves. Although most of the people Gao Shun led were not heavy cavalry and did not wear heavy armor, Gao Shun''s men still had excellent armor, sharp blades, and sufficient logistics. Nutrition, it can be said that everyone is strong and sturdy, which is in sharp contrast to the horse thieves.
?Horse hooves are flying and yellow sand is flying.
On both sides of the route where Gao Shun led the men and horses to charge, there were horse thieves running around, shouting and cursing, like a swarm of flies flying around. The momentum was not small, but as long as you could hold back the boredom in your heart, there was actually no problem. How much direct damage.
Gao Shun and others did not have a large number of soldiers, but the cavalry were originally one man and a horse, and looked much larger than the infantry. In addition, the horses instinctively kept a certain distance from each other, and the formation was also larger than that of the infantry. The array looked larger, so when Gao Shun charged over with his men and horses, he naturally gave these horse thieves an unparalleled sense of oppression.
??The memory of being dominated by the Han cavalry commanded by Lu Bu once again resurfaced in the minds of these people...
??These horse thieves, who are not part of the Matthew series in the first place, come because of profit, so how can they risk their lives for the so-called loyalty?
The red tassel on the gun shaft was trembling, and the long quills on the helmet were undulating.
??The gorgeous cavalry pennant was pulled straight by the wind.
The cold light shines on the blade and the tip of the spear!
March! The Han army rides! With his majestic momentum, Gao Shun trampled on the hearts of these horse thieves, proudly announcing to everyone around him that in the Western Regions, there are still Han soldiers who are not afraid of death, tiredness, and fearlessness!
Gao Shun shouted loudly: "Speed ??up!" accelerate! Let the thieves know our power! Meet our Glaives! 』
The soldiers following Gao Shun suddenly shouted in response, full of murderous intent.
As soon as the two sides came into contact, the horse thieves screamed and fell off their horses.
?These horse thieves in the periphery were originally relatively sparse, but now they were swept away by Gao Shun!
?Gao Shun rushed to the front, waving his spear with both hands, forming a huge killing circle. The head of his spear is long and sharp. Even if he is not stabbed, but just touches it, the armor may not be able to withstand it. Not to mention that most of the horse thieves are wearing torn leather robes, and blood will suddenly fly everywhere. The horse thieves were killed and everyone was frightened.
Ma Xiu frantically urged the surrounding horse thieves to come to support him. He had already discovered that Gao Shun''s men and horses were actually not many in number, and the number of horse thieves nearby who came into contact with Gao Shun''s team was five times the number of Gao Shun''s soldiers. Not only that, but he was so taken by Gao Shun''s momentum that he didn''t dare to get close at all!
??But despite Matthew''s repeated urging, the surrounding horse thieves just shouted and did not take action...
The blood spread and looked so gorgeous under the rays of the new sun.
During the impact, Gao Shun and others were not completely unscathed, nor did they lose their strength and energy, but no one said that they were tired, or shouted that they had given enough, and then evacuated at will.
Everyone gritted their teeth silently, stared at the target in front of them, and followed Gao Shun, moving forward step by step!
If there is a thief blocking the road, cut him off!
There is a sword in front of you, cut it off!
As long as Gao Shun is one step ahead, they will follow one step closer and one step further!
The big flag of "Practice for Heaven" was still fluttering leisurely in the wind, as if everything happening around it had nothing to do with it.
Matthew''s face was distorted and his veins were exposed. The horse thieves who were directly under his command were shouting anxiously around him.
"head! what to do? what to do? ! ” Seeing that the situation was not good, Matthew’s men quickly asked in a hurry.
Where is Taxa? Where are they? ! ” Matthew roared, turning his head and looking around, but did not see Taksa and the others. Letting the Kushan people consume the strength of the Han army is undoubtedly the best strategy at the moment.
But the answer from his subordinates was like a bucket of cold water on Matthew''s head, "Chief!" They left last night! 』
"What? Why are you leaving? Damn it, why didn’t you even say hello? ” Matthew opened his mouth in surprise.
Gone?
??He left without even saying hello?
?Of course, if Taksa really says hello to Matthew, he might not be able to leave...
?Taksa is more experienced than Matthew. He saw that these horse thieves could not belong to each other, and at the same time they had no way to coordinate. In addition, after encountering Gao Shun once before, he also understood the power of the Han army, so Taksa ostensibly followed Ma Xiu''s plan, but in fact he On the one hand, it was to continue Matthew''s evidence to add luster to his face. On the other hand, he himself had laid a plan to evacuate early. Anyway, he had already fought the Han army once and achieved "victory". No one can say He is afraid of fighting!
At best, it can only be regarded as a strategic change.
?Taxa left Matthew behind and ran away secretly, leaving Matthew behind with numb claws.
Gao Shun was charging with his men and horses. Although Ma Xiu and other horse thieves were more numerous, they always had problems with their ownership. Matthew himself is not a generational veteran. All his experience comes from being exposed to Ma Teng in the early years, as well as some indirect sharing.
?This kind of experience without actual operation has made Matthew need to implement it now. Many things are beautiful in his mind, but they are lacking in many aspects.
In dealing with some horse thieves, Matthew did not have a good grasp of the balance between lenience and severity. Well, in fact, it goes without saying that Ma Xiu, even in later generations, it will be a very big problem to win over or bribe a local prince or a warlord.
Originally, Matthew was thinking of dragging Taksa on his back, but Taksa was more experienced than Matthew and felt that the momentum was wrong, so he evacuated immediately, and even evacuated secretly at night, leaving Matthew in the cold. !
?Horse thieves themselves are good at fighting badly. The worse they are, the more energetic they are. They can drive hundreds of miles with a favorable wind, but if the wind goes against them...
Just like it is now.
All horse thieves have their own leaders, and each leader has his or her own agenda. Some are trying to steal each other''s way, some are trying to steal the horses, some are trying to get in, some are trying to run away, and some are even trying to take advantage of the situation to avenge themselves. There are all kinds of things. .
??However, Gao Shun''s impact direction is very stable. Anyway, just focus on Matthew''s big attack!
In Gao Shun''s eyes, the only thing he saw was the ridiculous "doing justice for heaven".
Arrows fly from time to time around, and occasionally soldiers and horses are shot. As long as the soldiers are not shot in vital parts, they can basically resist with light arrows, but sometimes the horses are shot in the legs and feet. fall.
No one looked back, everyone followed Gao Shun!
Charge!
It''s just that there aren''t many of them, and it''s difficult to hit a running target. Coupled with the surge of air, arrows from the front are still somewhat lethal, while arrows coming from the side tend to be deflected. , and can''t cause much damage.
Trampled by horse hooves!
Hate with swords and guns!
?Blood stained the dry land of the Gobi Desert.
No matter how much blood it was, the land immediately absorbed it, leaving only some dark red marks on the ground, like evil ghosts that had been thirsty for thousands of years.
Under the sky, Gao Shun''s three hundred men and horses moved at almost full speed from the edge of the horse thief''s camp, pointing straight to the flag position where Ma Xiu was. Along the way, the horse thieves, big and small, could hardly let Gao Shun and others stop. At all, many horse thieves were just clamoring outside, but did not dare to approach at all. Even when Gao Shun was attacking, many horse thieves climbed out of their shelters in the distance, mounted their horses, and spontaneously gathered in twos and threes. But he was still overwhelmed by the momentum of Gao Shun and others and did not dare to move forward!
There is power in numbers, but there is also power in numbers.
?When someone thinks about letting others go first, they often find that others think the same way.
Because Gao Shun and others acted too fiercely, tearing through all the horse thieves'' defenses like lightning and trampling all those blocking the road, whether they were humans or horses, to the ground, this situation made every horse thief around him feel unavoidable. So fearful that even though Matthew repeatedly urged and ordered, not many people were willing to step forward.
The situation began to deteriorate, and Matthew''s expectation gradually changed from surrounding and annihilating Gao Shun''s troops to stopping Gao Shun. Now, in his mind, he seemed to be considering whether to escape!
?Horse thieves themselves have no concept of loyalty. They still have some so-called life-saving loyalty to their leader, but to others...
Anyway, almost no one of the other horse thieves leaders, who usually have a big leader, came to rescue Ma Xiu. Even those who made some moves on the way were either thrown away by Gao Shun and others, or were beaten directly. He ran away, and now it was Matthew who had to face Gao Shun''s charge alone!
head, withdraw! 』
Someone was trying to persuade Matthew.
Matthew looked at the large scroll above his head.
?Who doesn’t know that everything will be fine if you retreat?
But once this flag falls, it may not be able to be erected again!
He can escape with his life today, but what about tomorrow?
?Matthew''s eyes fell on the spear in his hand.
?This spear once belonged to Ma Teng, and later to Ma Chao, but now it fell into his hands.
On the spear, there are mottled marks left by various battles, and there are also dark lines caused by drinking the blood of the enemy.
?Every time Matthew holds this spear, it’s like holding Ma’s inheritance and Ma’s hope!
The Western Regions should not be the end of the Ma clan, and Ma Xiu’s life does not want to be defined as a horse thief!
One day, Ma will return to his hometown!
"Ahhh..." Matthew raised his spear high and howled, "We are not horse thieves!" We are after General Fubo! We are the descendants of the Marquis of the Han Dynasty! Not a horse thief! 』
We will fight! There are only three hundred of them! Three hundred people! "Ma Xiu shouted, pointing at the rushing Gao Shun and others, "We will run away when facing three hundred people! In the future, even thirty people will want to escape! We have already escaped to the Western Region, where else do we want to escape? ! Fight back! attack! 』
?Horse thieves can retreat or escape, but Matthew doesn’t want to become a horse thief!
?Matthew’s dream, his hope, was not to become a horse thief!
?? Could it be that if Ma fell into his hands, he would become a horse thief? !
『Kill! ” Matthew yelled, “Follow me and kill!” We can win! Can win! 』
