Chapter 2126 Secret

Ma Chao was on the hillside, looking down from above and seeing it clearly, especially when Yan Xing chased Wei Xu by the bottom of the slope, he was shocked.

Why did Yan Xing's subordinates all have 5-year-old spears, and they attack with a spear. Everyone knows the principle that one inch long and one inch stronger, but the spear is even more difficult to control. When stabbing from top to bottom, a 5-year-old spear is much more troublesome than a 1-year-old spear.

When Sun Ce asked him to train Yi Congqi to use a spear that was 15 feet long, he tried a lot of effort, but he could not train all Yi Congqi. Only about half of the people could use a spear freely on horseback. This was the most elite Yi Congqi, let alone other cavalrymen.

Yan Xing's subordinates are so concise that everyone can use the spear of five zhang?

Ma Chao was puzzled and secretly thanked. If Yan Xing hadn't thought about his old love and had not taken ruthless measures against him, he would have had a few left in these 200 plots. He was backward and had lived too comfortably in Chang'an in recent years and had not kept up with the development pace of Wu's country. Ma Chao felt regretful. Although he was unwilling to admit it, he was anxious and depressed.

Fortunately, my sister and brother-in-law are still under the command of the King of Wu, so the line has not been broken.

"General, Wei Xu was bitten. I'm afraid he will suffer a great loss. Should we save him?" A group pointed at Wei Xu's battle flag and said, "Yan Xing is about to catch up with him."

Ma Chao glared at the song, raised his hand and wanted to beat him again. The song shrank his neck and held the helmet with both hands. Ma Chao snorted: "Yan Xing has only 200 cavalry, Wei Xu, Zhang Liao's military strength is ten times that of him, and he can still suffer a loss? This is Wei Xu's carelessness for a moment. It won't take long to turn the situation around. At this time, we should take action to save him. Wouldn't it be a joke for him to be incompetent? I won't do such a thankless thing."

The participants were timid, with a puzzled look, but they did not dare to ask more questions.

Sure enough, Wei Xu found that Yan Xing was biting him tightly, and immediately ordered the knights to slow down and ask Zhang Liao for help. The sound of the horns whimpered, and Zhang Liao quickly responded, leading the knights to turn right and intercept Yan Xing horizontally. If Yan Xing was greedy for the results of the battle and followed Wei Xu to slow down, he would be blocked by Zhang Liao, attacked on both sides, surrounded by enemies ten times more than him, and the possibility of breaking through was very small.

Yan Xing made a quick decision and ordered to leave the battlefield. He led the armored cavalry to break the back, raised his spear and killed several knights who were trying to chase him one after another. Before Zhang Liao arrived, he rushed south.

Zhang Liao did not chase him. He looked at Yan Xing's back, frowned, and didn't say anything for a long time. Although the battle lasted not long, the combat power displayed by the Jiangdong Cavalry opened his eyes. If it were only for Yan Xing's troops, it would be fine if the Jiangdong Cavalry had such strength, the emperor had almost no chance of winning, and the longer the delay, the more dangerous it would be.

Before Wei Xu could count the number of people, he took a quick look and knew that there were many casualties. About a hundred people died in battle, and countless injuries were injured. The soldiers were depressed and were so depressed that they could not even raise their heads. This battle was too cowardly, and they were chased and killed by someone, so they didn't even have a chance to resist.

Wei Xu was so angry that he came to the ground and shouted sternly. "General Ma, have you ever fought with Yan Xing?"

Ma Chao sat upright on the horse's back and said lightly: "Of course we fought, but we just fought two matches and before we could decide the outcome, you are here."

"For so long, you'll fight together?"

"Isn't it possible?" Ma Chao asked, "Of course, I also said a few words to him, urging him to abandon the darkness and turn to the light and serve the emperor. But he refused and had to do it. If you didn't come so quickly, maybe I could still capture him alive."

"Capture alive?" Wei Xu glared at Ma Chao and looked at him disdainfully. However, he was not a good debater. Facing Ma Chao's explanation, he knew it was nonsense, but he couldn't find a suitable word to refute. This made him very depressed and felt uncomfortable as if he was holding back his anger.

Zhang Liao rushed over and greeted Ma Chao. He saw the soil on Ma Chao's armor at first sight, but he didn't ask much. Ma Chao is a person with good face, and it would be no good for anyone to tear his face. He briefly asked about the battle with Yan Xing, and said, "General Ma, are the cavalry in Jiangdong so powerful? Everyone fights with a spear, and it's a spear of 1,400 feet."

Ma Chao put away his fake smile and looked solemn. "This is indeed a problem. Maybe it was the priest from the Mu Academy that invented something, and it might be possible to solve this problem. I can't tell what happened now. If all the cavalry in Jiangdong are like this, we should be careful."

Zhang Liao also felt that the situation was serious. This was a problem that he had never thought of before. The armored cavalry was already a headache. How could the Jiangdong cavalry still have unannounced secret weapons? The emperor's little military advantage was almost worth mentioning.

Zhang Liao sent a scout to find out the news from the south. He and Wei Xu and Ma Chao returned to the camp and reported to Lu Bu as soon as possible. When he learned that Wei Xu suffered a loss and lost hundreds of people, Lu Bu's face looked ugly. If it weren't for the important issues mentioned by Zhang Liao, he would have wanted to beat Wei Xu to a whip. Thousands of cavalry were still suffering such a big loss against two hundred cavalry, especially in front of Ma Chao, which was very embarrassing.

"The Jiangdong Cavalry has such good riding skills?" Lu Bu pondered, his eyes flashing.

"June, Liu Lingjun is in charge of the information, he may know something."

Lu Bu looked at Zhang Liao with appreciation. There were many warriors under his command, but not many people with brains like Zhang Liao. This matter is of great importance. If you don’t figure it out, it would be too risky to fight against the Jiangdong cavalry. He then asked Wei Xu if there were any seizures. Wei Xu said that Yan Xing’s personal guard cavalry was very concise. Although some people were dismissed during the melee, they could only move. Most of them were re-run. Only some were killed on the spot, with few people, and only seven or eight people. Wei Xu thought the body was difficult to deal with, so he took off his armor and brought it back.

Wei Xu placed the seized armor in front of Lu Bu. Lu Bu picked up one, looked at it again and again, suddenly pointed to the wide armor skirt and said, "Have you seen this style before?"

Zhang Liao and Wei Xu stared at the armor skirt and looked at it again and again, and felt something was wrong. The armor of the Jiangdong Army was a fine product and was difficult to buy, and the generals of the court rushed to it. Lu Bu had no way to buy it in batches, but they only relied on the rewards of the emperor. They all divided some of them, and the styles of the front and back were different. But the styles of this armor skirt were too strange, obviously too large and too long, and it was inconvenient to wear and walk, and would step on the feet. Zhang Liao picked up the armor and looked carefully and found another problem. These too wide armor skirts were sewn alone, not the original armor. Judging from the marks of the stitches, these armor skirts had just been sewn.

"Could it be... what did they use this to block?" Zhang Liao recalled the scene during the battle and thoughtfully. "Is it a new harness that can help the knight sit more steadily?"
