Chapter 397 ? Ma Chao rides the dark horse

Crossbows are powerful weapons against cavalry. They are powerful and have a long range, and can kill war horses or cavalry. Especially light cavalry without iron armor defense, they will be killed in one blow.

The only troublesome thing is that it is difficult to load arrows again and it is time-consuming and laborious.

Following the crossbow and arrow soldiers in the front row of Zhao Yun's army, clear the magazines.

The cavalry in front of Ma Chao's army screamed and fell to the ground. The cavalry in the rear could not react in time, so they also wanted people to turn over the horses. The cavalry in the reaction quickly bypassed the companions who fell in front and continued to rush towards Zhao Yun's army.

Although the morale of the army is now fluctuating, Ma Chao led the way to inspire morale. Moreover, the cavalry of Ma Teng's army is well-trained and brave.

It will not collapse quickly due to this casualty.

"Kill!!!" They continued to wave the sabers, control Xiongjun's war horse, and roared and continued to move forward.

"Swoosh swosh swosh!!!" The archers of Zhao Yun's army in the second row shot arrows ahead after the crossbow archers.

At this time, the distance between Zhao Yun's army and Ma Chao's army was extremely close. The archers had only time to shoot three rounds of arrows, and the casualties caused to Ma Chao's army were relatively limited.

"kill!!!!"

Seeing that both sides were about to run into each other head-on, Hu Cheer called out the order and lit up his spear in his hand and led his troops to fight in person.

"Kill!!!" Zhao Yun's cavalry waved their sabers and rushed up with Hu Cheer.

With a loud roar, the cavalry quickly collided without any accident.

The cavalry in the front row fell one after another, and their war horses were either brain-like or stumbled, and they were killed one after another.

This is very common in cavalry hedging. The cavalry in the front row had a very high mortality rate. Zhao Yun's army and Ma Chao's army were all experienced many battles. The soldiers who were still alive in the front row were waving their sabers to fight. The cavalry in the back row also waved their sabers and rode their horses to fight with the opponent's cavalry.

A melee began.

But soon, the gap between the two armies emerged.

The cavalry of Zhao Yun's army had a high rate of armor, with as many as 50%.

The cavalry of Ma Chao's army was only 20% wearing iron armor. Moreover, the cavalry of Zhao Yun's army was more trained, and their physiques were significantly stronger and their morale was high.

The food given to the soldiers by the court has always been excellent. I would rather raise less soldiers than deduct the food of the soldiers.

Hu Cheer was brought out by Zhang Xiu, and he led the troops with great rules and was good at raising soldiers.

"Kill!!!" A cavalry of Zhao Yun's army, dressed in iron armor, quickly stood up from the ground, then waved the sabre in his hand, and chopped down a cavalry of Ma Chao's army to the ground. Then, he rolled on the ground and cut off the front feet of a cavalry of Ma Chao's army. The cavalry's horse screamed, and the cavalry on the horse also landed on the ground.

The cavalry of Zhao Yunjun waved his knife ruthlessly and chopped off the cavalry's head. The blood that was sparsely revealed spurted him all over, but his expression was not moving, just blinking.

The cavalry of Zhao Yunjun killed three people in a row, without any trauma on his body. Instead, the saber cut out the gap in his hand.

And this cavalry is only one in ten thousand of the cavalry of Zhao Yun's army.

"Kill!!!" Whether it is a horse-riding cavalry or a fallen cavalry, the Zhao Yun army's cavalry are very brave and good at fighting. They are all professional killers who kill people and can accurately kill humans.

Although Ma Chao's cavalry is also professional, it is a bit worse than Zhao Yun's army.

"Puchi, puchi!!"

At the same time, after the cavalry crossed over, the spearmen who were landing behind began to rush forward. The soldiers in front of them were also wearing iron armor and stabbed the spears and stabbed the cavalry of Ma Chao's army off the horse.

The crossbow archers and archers in the rear also shot out the arrows in their hands and shot Ma Chao's cavalry.

The casualties of Ma Chao's soldiers were very tragic.

This was a rare encounter. Zhang Xiu's six army went out of Chang'an many times and came to the vast land of Liangzhou. However, Ma Teng and Han Sui, who were known for their bravery and good fighting, did not dare to fight with Zhang Xiu at night, but only dared to defend the city or the river.

Only Ma Chao has such courage and does not believe in evil.

The result is obvious. Ma Teng and Han Sui are cunning and do not fight Zhang Xiu's army in a field. They are really scheming.

Ma Chao led the way and killed twenty or thirty Zhao Yun's cavalry, and the iron armor on his body turned red. But he was unable to turn the world back.

He looked at the soldiers who died tragically around him, and his anger burst out even more and more.

"kill!!!"

At this moment, Ma Chao met Hu Cheer. He didn't know Hu Cheer, but guessed that this man must be a general in Zhao Yun's army.

He then developed the desire to turn the tide.

"Kill!" Ma Chao struggled forward and stabbed Hu Cheer with a big gun. However, Hu Cheer recognized Ma Chao. This young man with a brocade must be Ma Chao.

Hu Cheer was only a few years older than Ma Chao, and was also brave and good at fighting, with the best of the whole army. He had never been convinced by Ma Chao, and when he saw this, he even held up his spear to fight.

After only twenty rounds of battle between the two sides, Hu Cheer knew that he was not Ma Chao's opponent. Although he was a little embarrassed, with the help of his personal soldiers, he swung his spear, broke away from the battle with Ma Chao, and retreated into the rear.

"Riege. Don't you dare to fight me to the death?" Ma Chao fired his gun hard and shouted loudly.

Hu Cheer said nothing and was not impulsive.

The Grand Sima said that victory or defeat is common in military affairs, and martial arts may have strengths and weaknesses, but the one who survives is the best.

"Children, don't be rampant." Zhao Yun shouted, rode his horse and rushed out, stabbing Ma Chao with a big gun.

Ma Chao had noticed Zhao Yun a long time ago, but he knew that his martial arts skills were slightly inferior to Zhao Yun. But seeing this, he did not retreat and bravely fired his gun to fight.

"Ding Ding Ding Ding!!" Both sides spears out like dragons, fighting for twenty rounds without a distinction. Ma Chao became more and more excited and was about to decide a life and death with Zhao Yun.

"Today we must separate male and female." Ma Chao's eyes were red and his aura was powerful, which was rare in the world.

But a veteran rushed up and stabbed Zhao Yun with a shot. Then he said to Ma Chao: "Young Master. Our mission is to cut off the back and cover the infantry. Now our troops have suffered serious losses and are far from their original intention. Order to withdraw troops."

When Ma Chao saw this man, he suddenly became clearer. He was Ma Ting, a general of the Ma family. According to his seniority, he had to call him "uncle".

Ma Chao looked around and with the cooperation of Zhao Yun's infantry and cavalry, his cavalry were chopped down in pieces like cabbages that cost money.

Ma Chao was sad and helpless.

"Ah!!!" His eyes turned red again, and there was a flush on Jinxiu's face. He screamed in anger, then pulled his horse away.

"Retreat the troops!!!" Ma Chao ordered and led his troops to run wildly with shame and anger.

"Retreat the troops!!!" Ma Ting also shouted, leading the cavalry to turn their horses and head in another direction.

This encounter was decided by the winner. Although Ma Chao's army had the upper hand and was all cavalry, they were female when they met Zhao Yun's army.

Now it is not the case before. Zhao Yun no longer needs the infantry to cooperate with the cavalry to fight. Now he is hitting the dog in the water.

"The infantry is being repaired here, and there is no need to pursue Yang Fu's infantry. The cavalry will follow me to chop off the cavalry. Kill Ma Chao in the Qiang."

Zhao Yun made a decision in his mind, then fired his big gun, and personally led Hu Cheer and other cavalrymen to abandon the infantry and chase Ma Chao.

The pursuit between the two sides was also extremely tragic.

Although Ma Chao's army paid a huge price and ended in a crushing defeat, they had some training after all. The cavalrymen who fell behind, including Ma Chao himself, were all sheathed with swords and guns. Then they took out the horse's bow and turned around and shot arrows in the back.

At the same time, the Zhao Yun army cavalry in front also bent their bows and shot arrows amid the roaring horse hooves.

The cavalry of both sides were all dismissed. However, the cavalry of Zhao Yun's army was still far lower than that of Ma Chao's cavalry due to the protection of iron armor.

This pursuit will not last too long.

Wearing iron armor also has the disadvantage of wearing iron armor. The physical strength of the war horse cannot keep up and it is difficult to continue running at high speed. Zhao Yun led the way, occasionally swinging his big gun and flying, or avoiding arrows shot from the front.

Zhao Yun stared at Ma Chao in front of him and shouted: "Riding a black horse, the one with a red ribbon tied around the horse's neck is Ma Chao. Those who kill Ma Chao will reward a thousand gold."

The daughter really got rich overnight. Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man. The soldiers' eyes were red and they roared hard to kill.

"kill!!!!!"

Those red eyes stared at Ma Chao one after another.

Although Ma Chao was unworthy of being a tyrant, his heart was trembling. However, he was stubborn and did not act. It was Ma Ting, the veteran next to him, who said to Ma Chao: "Young Master, take off the ribbon on the horse's neck. Now is not the time to be stubborn."

Ma Chao clenched his fists, and blue veins appeared on his forehead, but in the end he unbuttoned the red ribbon on his neck.

Zhao Yun from behind stared at Ma Chao's actions, and saw this and shouted again: "It's Ma Chao who rides a black horse and is wearing a green embroidered robe."

Ma Chao has done it once, and the second time it was much smoother. He immediately untied the rope around his neck and gave the green cloak.

This is already the most obvious feature of Ma Chao. As for those riding dark horses and those wearing iron armor, there are many people in Ma Chao's army.

Although Zhao Yun had good eyesight, he also lost Ma Chao's position among the dark cavalry in front of him. He was helpless and shouted: "Try to pursue and kill Ma Chao's soldiers."

"kill!!!!"

Zhao Yun's cavalry accompanied Zhao Yun's order and roared hard to kill. The two sides launched a fierce pursuit battle in the vast Qiang area.
