Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu
Chapter 1020: Ma Chao's withdrawal
"As a brother, I will definitely not hurt Shoucheng. After all, you and I are brothers. If Shoucheng is willing to let the defenders of Hanyang, Longxi and Wudu surrender, Shoucheng will be rich and prosperous in the future." Han Sui said.
Han Sui was well aware of Ma Chao's bravery. If he killed Ma Teng and attracted Ma Chao, the gain would outweigh the losses. Moreover, Ma Chao had considerable prestige among the Qiang people.
"Hmph, what kind of brother? What I hate most is that I became a brother with someone like you." Ma Teng gritted his teeth.
"No matter what Shoucheng says, this general will not give up." After Han Sui finished speaking, he winked at Yan Xing who was standing aside.
Yan Xing pulled out the sword from his waist and stepped forward. Even if the two generals beside Ma Teng resisted desperately, they would not be Yan Xing's opponents. After counting, they were killed by Yan Xing.
The blood was still dripping from the long sword, and Yan Xing turned his attention to Ma Teng. After all, Ma Teng was a famous figure in Liangzhou for a long time. If he was killed like this, there would be great hidden dangers.
"Does Shoucheng still not intend to give up at this time?" Han Sui asked.
After Ma Teng was silent for a long time, he threw his sword to the ground. "Wen Yue did this, but my son Meng Qi will not let Wen Yue go so easily."
Seeing that Ma Teng gave up resistance, Han Sui laughed and said: "With Shoucheng in my hands, why should I be afraid of Ma Chao? Take Shoucheng down to rest. Don't neglect it."
Yan Xing cupped his fists and said, "General Ma, please."
Ma Teng snorted coldly and walked out of the tent.
The personal guards who followed Ma Teng were also controlled by Han Sui at extremely fast speeds.
What happened next was much simpler for Han Sui.
Ma Teng's order was falsely conveyed, and the defenders in the city did not have too many doubts. Han Sui also easily controlled Ji County. Ma Teng had a high prestige in the army. Even after the army entered Ji County, many
The soldiers resisted desperately, but they seemed a little fragile in front of Han Sui's army.
After taking control of Ji County, Han Sui was not in a hurry to expand. The most important thing was to firmly control Hanyang. Ma Teng had governed Hanyang for many years, and the Hanyang family was extremely supportive of Ma Teng.
After Ma Teng entered Ji County, he appeased the aristocratic families in the city. Many aristocratic families had no choice but to acquiesce when they saw that the master of Hanyang had become Han Sui. Han Sui's main task was to disrupt Ma Teng's attack on Chang'an. Not only did he gain Lu Bu's trust,
We can also capture Longxi, why not do it.
Ma Chao, who was waiting for the arrival of Han Sui's army in Meiyang City, was furious after learning about the drastic changes in Hanyang. He was very wary of Han Sui. It was reasonable for Han Sui to send troops to attack Chang'an this time. After all, this was
At that time, Lu Bu was in a weak position and could gain considerable benefits after conquering Chang'an.
What he didn't expect was that what Han Sui wanted was Hanyang. Needless to say, Han Sui had already united with Lu Bu.
"Gather your troops and return to Longguan. I, the general, will let Han Sui's son die without a burial place." Ma Chao gritted his teeth and said that Hanyang had made a mistake. Even if he stayed in the land of Sanfu, he would not be able to achieve much.
.
"My father is currently in the hands of Han Sui. If we lead the troops to Longguan, I'm afraid my father will be in danger." Ma Dai advised. No one expected that the situation that was originally extremely beneficial to the Xiliang army would suddenly be met by two enemies.
This was a setback, and this time it was fatal to the army.
Ma Teng was the prefect of Hanyang, and most of the soldiers under his command were from Hanyang. After learning that Hanyang was lost, the army must have been a little panicked. If they returned to Longguan to fight Han Sui to the death, it would be difficult to succeed.
"If my father is at fault, I will definitely cut Han Sui into pieces." Ma Chao said angrily.
"On this occasion, the main thing is to save my father's life. We might as well give the land of Hanyang to Han Sui and let him let his father go," Ma Dai said.
Ma Chao's expression kept changing. He was so high-spirited when he led the troops to attack Chang'an, but he did not expect to encounter such a situation suddenly. In comparison, the previous surprise attack by the Bingzhou Army was nothing to the large army.
"Anyway, let's go back to Binglong Pass first," Ma Chao said.
The next day, the Xiliang army in Meiyang City began to retreat toward Longguan.
After Taishi Ci, who paid close attention to the situation on the battlefield, received the news, he sent fast horses to convey the news to Chang'an. He was not sure whether this was Ma Chao's conspiracy.
Chang'an, after receiving the news of Ma Chao's retreat, Jushu's face showed a smile. He had received news from Lu Bu before. As long as Han Sui sent troops to help Ma Chao attack Chang'an, it meant that Ma Chao was not far from retreating. Besides, Chang'an
His back-up force was not only Han Sui, but also the army of Anding County.
Compared with Bingzhou at this time, Chang'an's foundation is much worse. Fighting on two fronts will be a great test for the army. If Ma Chao retreats, Chang'an's army will be able to defend Jiguan with all its strength.
"Invite General Taishi Ci to lead the Lieyang Archers to Jiguan." Jushou ordered.
The situation in Jiguan at this time was similar to that of Longguan. Under the Jingzhou Army's attack regardless of casualties, the Jingzhou Army's Thunderbolt Chariots also approached Jiguan. Although there were many broken Thunderbolt Chariots, in this regard, Jingzhou never
They have not stopped building thunder chariots. On the walls of Jiguan, there are densely packed crossbow arrows, which were left behind when Chunnu launched an attack on Jiguan.
These crossbow arrows provided considerable convenience to the soldiers of the Jingzhou Army who were attacking the city. Even if the ladder was knocked down when the soldiers were climbing the city wall, as long as the team responded quickly, they could continue to climb by relying on the crossbow arrows left on the wall.
This method has been used by Bingzhou Army.
After successive fierce battles, the garrison in Jiguan was reduced to more than 5,000 people, and many of the soldiers were injured.
Wei Yan said with a worried look: "General Zhao, if this situation continues, Ji Pass will most likely be broken by the Jingzhou Army."
Zhao Yun said: "No matter what, Ji Pass must be defended. If Ji Pass is lost, the Jingzhou army will be able to march straight in to attack Chang'an, and even Hedong will be caught in the flames of war. Recently, the aristocratic families in Hedong have become a little restless, so inform the people stationed in Hedong.
Generals, please cooperate with the officials. If these aristocratic families continue like this, let them see how they can merge with the state army."
"Here." Wei Yan said, cupping his fists.
Ever since Jiguan fell into the war, the aristocratic families in Hedong have been thinking a lot and secretly jointly raised the price of rice, which panicked the people in Hedong. Fortunately, officials from various places took action in time and did not cause greater turmoil.
As long as the Jingzhou Army breaks through Jiguan, you can imagine what the families who were oppressed under the rule of the Bingzhou Army will do. At this time, holding Jiguan is extremely important for Hedong.
Most of the officials in Hedong were dispatched from Bingzhou. They were always wary of the aristocratic families, and they would not be lenient at all in dealing with the aristocratic families. As long as the evidence was conclusive, the next step would be bloody killings.
