…
When Qiu Linbei led the army and marched on the land, even Cao Chun and others who were twenty miles away felt something was wrong.
Pang De was very familiar with this situation and understood the information transmitted by the ground vibration.
The shock and shock caused by the large-scale marching cavalry, and the resulting phenomena, all revealed one fact.
The army led by the Qiang people not only did not fear their existence, but was approaching them.
"Zihe, get ready for the fight!" Pang De's face darkened on the spot and he said in a very serious tone.
Among the generals present, he was the only one with more combat experience.
Relying on his own experience of surviving on the battlefield, Pang De also quickly gave tips.
After hearing this, Cao Chun's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he regained his composure.
"Form up! Meet the enemy!" Cao Chun directly conveyed his order loudly.
Although he didn't understand why these Qiang people came to seek death, since these Qiang people dared to do this, he didn't mind helping these Qiang people.
Veterans from the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, showing ample combat experience.
After hearing the relevant orders, he quickly made preparations for the war, adjusted his posture, placed the weapons in a convenient place, and looked into the distance with a serious expression, waiting for the possible war that would happen later.
Compared with the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, who have strict discipline and excellent organizational skills, the soldiers under Ma Chao are relatively poor in organizational skills.
Although they are carefully selected from many Qiang soldiers in terms of physical fitness, it does not mean that they are very good in terms of organizational skills.
In the process of organization, it is relatively chaotic and slow.
Ma Chao, who witnessed this situation with his own eyes, couldn't help but frown, but in the end he could only lower his head and sigh.
The gap in basic quality displayed by this kind of soldiers made Ma Chao clearly understand that many things would be difficult to catch up from the beginning.
Compared to the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry who still had a road ahead, the cavalry under his command had few roads to take.
But seeing this situation, Ma Chao didn't think too much. Anyway, as long as he fights on the battlefield and keeps fighting, even if there is no way, he can still open a way.
Relying on the spear in his hand to create a new world, this is what he should do.
Pang De sighed softly, looked at the long knife in his hand, and began to organize his army.
In such a strange place, fighting head-on with the Qiang cavalry on the battlefield, I have the idea that I am crazy.
Even if the Qiang people were defeated head-on, it would not be of much benefit to them.
This strategy, which is close to actively detonating internal conflicts among the Qiang people, is essentially a way of weakening the Liangzhou Qiang people.
Regardless of whether it was him or Ma Chao, the forces relying on them were Ma Teng and Han Sui after all.
After all, the capital that Ma Teng and Han Sui relied on was the Qiang people.
This strategy seems to have settled the conflict between the Qiang people and the Han people, and solved the problems that may arise between the two ethnic groups.
However, this substantial weakening will also reduce their right to speak in the court.
From this aspect, both the Qiang people and themselves are within the scope of being calculated.
But thinking about it, Pang De also felt that it was quite normal. After all, they had hundreds of thousands of Qiang troops.
Such a large number of troops is also a very powerful military and political force. Even if they communicate in the court, it is a considerable confidence support.
However, such a huge army was a huge unstable factor for Cao Cao or the Emperor of the Han Dynasty.
Even if Cao Cao is not afraid of this, he has the corresponding strength to suppress this huge army.
But there is no room for others to sleep soundly beside the couch, let alone such a huge army.
However, simple weakening cannot appease Ma Teng, Han Sui and others.
It is precisely because of this that Ma Chao and Pang De were included in Cao Chun's troops carrying out the purge from the south.
On the one hand, the process is relatively simple, the requirements for soldiers are not high, and the losses of soldiers will certainly not be serious.
But the achievements along the way will eventually become achievements and will be recorded in detail.
By then, both Cao Chun, who led the army, and Ma Chao and Pang De, who were one of the main forces, would all have legitimate contributions.
At that time, it is justifiable to promote Ma Chao, Pang De and others to appease the mood of Ma Teng, Han Sui and others, which can be regarded as an alternative kind of compensation.
By weakening military strength in exchange for some political rights, or status concessions.
It is precisely because of this that in the actions against the Qiang people.
Ma Teng, Han Sui and others, who were very prestigious among the Qiang people, kept their silence from the beginning. They found a relatively suitable reason and simply stayed behind closed doors, pretending that they had no knowledge.
After Cao Cao finished cleaning up, come on, Ma Teng, Han Sui and others came out to finish.
While gaining people's hearts, it can also be mutually beneficial, allowing everyone to get what they want.
By that time, the world where only the Qiang people were injured would be completely completed.
Ma Chao's understanding of this political consideration is almost zero.
On the contrary, in this respect, what Pound did was more suitable for political considerations.
Due to various reasons, although Pound prepared his army for war, he was not prepared to use all his strength to forcibly kill the Qiang cavalry. Instead, he mainly focused on driving and expelling them.
In this regard, Cao Ang is also very clear.
The reason why he appears here essentially has this aspect in mind.
After all, Ma Chao and Pang De are the best young men among Ma Teng's forces.
If something unexpected happens and Ma Teng is gone, it will be easy to have disagreements with the Cao family.
And as Cao Cao's eldest son, he stays here, which is essentially a guarantee and support for his strength.
No matter how ruthless Cao Cao is, he cannot plot against his eldest son Cao Ang.
Based on this point, as long as an accident occurs or someone dies heroically on the battlefield, it has nothing to do with Cao Cao's men.
How to mediate between factions, use the struggle and power between factions, and reduce the constraints of oneself as much as possible while exerting one's own strength. These are things that Cao Ang himself needs to learn and practice.
Among the Qingliu, famous ministers and generals, Cao Ang understands the importance of the army better?
Especially when the world is uncertain and there is a winner or loser, he naturally knows the importance of generals and soldiers.
Further solidify the power behind him and allow him to firmly sit in this position.
