Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 673

[Chapter 673]

“Kill!” The

gate of Xiaoguan opened, and the soldiers of the Ma family charged. Many soldiers poured into the gate, rushing towards the Beidi soldiers in Xiaoguan like a tide.

The soldiers of the Ma family were more than twice as many as the soldiers of Beidi.

On the battlefield, they have a numerical advantage.

Seeing Beidi soldiers in the distance, they picked up their rifles and fired.

When they found Beidi soldiers hiding in the corner, they threw a grenade over there.

But even so, it was still unavoidable that some Beidi cavalry used the building to suddenly come close to fight hand-to-hand.

It’s just that even if they encounter such Beidi soldiers, they have no fear.

Picking up their bayonets, they fought with Beidi soldiers.

After this period of training, the soldiers of the Ma family are proficient in bayonet skills, and the soldiers cooperate with each other tacitly.

One soldier stabbed Beidi’s upper body, while the other stabbed his lower body.

Beidi couldn’t dodge, and was killed by the bayonet one after another.

But Beidi people have always been brutal and fierce.

In the hand-to-hand combat, there were also casualties of Ma family soldiers.

It’s just that compared with Beidi, the number is much smaller.

For a long time, what the soldiers of Dasong feared most was Beidi’s cavalry and shooting.

In hand-to-hand combat, although Beidi soldiers have the upper hand, the advantage is not great.

What’s more, during this period of time, the soldiers of the Ma family have received rigorous training, and their food has also improved a lot.

Not only is he very proficient in bayonet techniques, but his physical fitness is also much stronger than before.

The strength is no worse than that of Beidi soldiers who eat meat.

Beidi soldiers became more and more frightened as they fought.

In Da Song’s army, what they fear most are King Yan’s soldiers.

It is said that King Yan’s soldiers were very fierce, whether it was firearms or hand-to-hand combat, their Beidi soldiers could not take advantage of it.

But for Da Song’s powerful army, they are very contemptuous, treating them like chickens and dogs.

But right now, the Ma family army in front of them seems to have been completely reborn.

After the battle, they immediately suffered a big loss.

Originally, they thought they could save the defeat through hand-to-hand combat.

But now, they have completely lost confidence.

As more and more Ma family soldiers poured into the pass, Beidi soldiers were beaten back and forth, shrinking from the south of the city to the north of the city.

Seeing that they could not defend Xiaoguan, they mounted their horses and fled northward one after another.

Half an hour later, the gunfire ceased, and the Ma family soldiers completely occupied Xiaoguan.

At this time, Ma Han came to the north of the city, looked at the Beidi cavalry who disappeared into the sky, and a thick smile appeared on his face.

For him, taking down Xiaoguan was tantamount to cutting off Beidi’s way to enter Qinzhou from land.

In the future, it is only necessary to patrol the banks of the Jin River to prevent Beidi from crossing the river, and Beidi can be completely blocked from Qinzhou and Yongzhou.

While Ma Han captured Xiaoguan, Dianzhang’s attack on Yongzhou was also overwhelming.

There were not many defenders in the cities in Yongzhou. He fought all the way there, like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

After occupying Yongcheng, he immediately sent cavalry to Xiaoguan to report the battle situation to Ma Han.

Five days later, he received an order to leave 3,000 soldiers to guard Yongcheng, patrol the Jin River, and the remaining soldiers and horses went to join Wuguan.

Immediately, he led his troops to the south.

After four days of trekking, he met Ma’s army and Ma Han at the foot of Wuguan.

“I left 30,000 soldiers and horses in Xiaoguan, and left half of the mortars and field artillery there. If Beidi raises troops to capture the pass, they should be able to hold it.”

The two armies met, Ma Han and Dianzhang climbed a raised hillside outside Wuguan, at this time Ma Han said.

Dianzhang nodded, “”With these 30,000 troops, even if Beidi came with an army of 300,000, they would never want to take back Wuguan, and at the end of the day, they thought that Beidi would not send a large army to attack the city stupidly. May forget. ”

Ma Han thinks so, and he thinks so too. It’s

just that he is afraid of everything, so he left 30,000 soldiers and horses.

With these 30,000 soldiers and horses, Qinzhou and Yongzhou are like iron barrels, Beidi Don’t even think about sending troops into the two states.

At the same time, on the way to Wuguan, he sent cavalry back to Sizhou. He

ordered the Sizhou government to send officials to take over the counties of the two states, so as to stabilize Qinzhou and Yongzhou as soon as possible.

In addition, when Qinzhou and Yongzhou fell, a large number of people flooded into Sizhou. Although

some people were moved to Yanzhou by him because of the transaction with King Yan at that time, there were still many people from the two states staying Now ,

they can move these people back to the two states, and let them return to their hometown to resume farming.

Thinking of this, he felt a burst of joy.

The Ma family once controlled the three states and went through hardships, and finally returned to the right track.

His three wishes First, take back Qinzhou and Yongzhou, second, kill Ma Jin, and third, take revenge on Dou Wei.

Two of them have been completed, and now the only thing left is to take revenge on the Dou family.

Looking at the top of the five senses, Ma Jin Han’s eyes narrowed.

He said to Dianzhang: “Nanliang sent 200,000 troops to Qizhou. At present, Nanliang can be said to be empty of troops. As long as Wuguan is taken, they can drive in for a long time. Dianzhang laughed and said, ”

Wuguan has only 30,000 Nanliang soldiers and horses stationed there, so taking it down is easy.”

Ma Han nodded slightly, picked up the binoculars, and looked towards the top of the city .

During this period, Nanliang continued to expand southward, competing with Wu State for the royal territory in the south of the Yangtze River, and its main force was deployed in the south.

Moreover, the current alliance between Nanliang and Beidi made it even less necessary to garrison troops in Wuguan.

After all, even if Beidi became disgusted and attacked Wuguan, these 30,000 people could resist Beidi for a period of time, enough for them to send troops to support.

As for their Ma family, Nan Liang probably wouldn’t pay attention to them.

If the Ma family army wants to attack Wuguan, they must drive Beidi from Qinzhou and Yongzhou.

With their common sense, it is impossible not to have a year or a half.

Maybe it will be wiped out by Beidi.

Therefore, the soldiers and horses of the Ma family suddenly gathered under the city of Wuguan, and the Nanliang guard of Wuguan was quite shocked.

This can be seen from the expression of the Nanliang guard in the telescope.

“Dou Kuang.” Seeing the face of the guard of Wuguan clearly, Ma Han was slightly surprised.

He is naturally no stranger to Dou Kuang, after all, he also spent a period of time in the Imperial College of the capital.

It’s just that as Dou Wei’s eldest son, Dou Kuang was sent to guard Wuguan, which shows that he was left out.

But think about it too.

Dou Wei let the former third prince, now Dou Mu, ascend the throne as emperor.

Naturally, he has a grudge against Dou Wei’s eldest son.

Dou Wei naturally didn’t want any conflict between the two, so it made sense to send him to the Nanliang border.

No matter how you say it, for Nanliang, Wuguan is safe and sound, and the guard of Wuguan is just an idle job.

“Let the soldiers rest for a day, and attack the city tomorrow.” Ma Han gave the order, and he couldn’t wait to take Wuguan.

next day.

The red glow of the morning dyed the earth red.

After a day’s rest, the soldiers of the Ma family regained their vigor.

After eating, they polished their muskets and slung grenades at their waists.

Immediately, they entered their positions under the leadership of the general.
