In the early hours of the morning, the night is full-bodied.
The bright moonlight makes the whole Chencang County seem to be shrouded in a cool light.
Outside Chencang County, on the official road.
A team of soldiers, running fast. These soldiers, all in a mess, were out of breath. This group of soldiers, the number of about 300 people, disheveled, hair brown, eyes are covered with blood.
These are the soldiers who escaped.
There are soldiers under Yan Xing.
There are also soldiers under Matthew.
As for Ma Xiu, the leader was Duan Yi, a partial general in Ma Teng's army. Yiduan Yi's official position is not the most important general in Ma Teng's army, but his official position is the largest in the army he escaped from. Duan Yi came to the tower, shouting: "open the gate, open the gate quickly, let us into the city."
The cry awakened the garrison on the upper floor of the city.
Seeing this, the soldiers stationed on the upper floor of the city became nervous one by one. They stretched their torches out of the city and looked at the situation under the city carefully. They dare not open the gate at will for fear of accidents.
But when some soldiers returned, the soldiers in the garrison did not dare to delay and reported to the police quickly.
In a short time, the general stationed at the gate came. When he saw the situation of the city downstairs, he looked at it with some worry. In the distance, he thought in his heart whether it would be deceiving the city.
He had this worry, so he asked, "what's the matter with you?"
Duan Yi said: "let's go into the city. I want to see General Ma. This ambush in futu mountain was destroyed by Zhang Xiu."
Brush!
The general in the city changed greatly.
It's a serious situation.
"Wait!"
The general who was stationed at the gate of the city was also cautious. He took the troops stationed on the top of the city down to the city and lined up in the city to avoid cheating. Then, let the soldiers open the gate and let Duan Yi enter the city.
After Duan Yi and others entered the city, the general stationed at the gate closed the gate.
Duan Yi is familiar with the situation.
He took the men straight to the barracks.
It's late at night, and the gate of the camp is quiet, but there are soldiers stationed. No matter Han Sui or Ma Teng, they have already had an early rest. When Duan Yi's condition is reported to Ma Teng, Ma Teng immediately summons Duan Yi.
Ma Teng's face was rough, but now his simple, honest and rough face was full of worry. He asked: "what a short ambush, it failed. What's going on? "
Duan Yi didn't dare to hide it, and immediately explained: "report back to the general, the second young master led us to ambush on the futu mountain, ready to fight when Zhang Xiu's army arrived at the futu mountain and crossed the road at the foot of the futu mountain."
"At that time, Zhang Xiu came."
"But when Zhang Xiu's army arrived at the entrance to the east of futu mountain, it stopped. At this time, a fire broke out at the foot of the whole futu mountain. "
"In a short time, the whole floating mountain turned into a sea of fire."
In Duan Yi's eyes, a touch of panic appeared, and his face was still a look of lingering fear. He continued: "at that time, Yan Xing and the second son decided not to ambush Zhang Xiu any more and led us down the mountain to break through."
"We just went down the mountain and met Zhang Xiu's obstruction and ambush at the foot of the mountain."
"As for the second young master, because he was not taken down for the time being under the protection of the pro guards, he led us to break through. It's just that there are too many people on the battlefield and the situation is complicated. We are soon dispersed. "
Duan Yi said: "our group of soldiers rushed out, but I don't know whether the second young master finally broke out."
"Son of a bitch!"
Ma Teng heard that and slapped him on the desk.
His eyes were full of anger.
A good ambush turned out to be a reverse ambush, and Zhang Xiu was the one who ambushed him.
It's disgusting!
In particular, Matthew is in a tight encirclement. Matthew is his own son. He is calm and gentle. He is Ma Teng's favorite son. Ma Teng has made preparations to gradually let Ma Xiu take charge of military power.
Now, Matthew doesn't know his life or death.
In case Matthew is killed in the chaos
Think of here, Ma Teng immediately hit a shiver, in the heart incomparable worry.
Ma Teng said, "come on
A soldier enters inside, Ma Teng orders a way: "ask Ma Chao to come to discuss business."
"Here it is
The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.
Just after the soldiers left, a soldier came to report: "general, General Han Sui asked to see you."
"Please
Ma Teng gave an order.
After a while, Han Sui rushed into the camp. At the moment, his cold face was full of dignified expression, and he said, "I've heard about nephew Ma Xiuxian. Yan Xing, under my command, also knows nothing about life and death. "
Ma Teng clenched his fist and said eagerly: "brother, I've sent someone to inform Ma Chao and let him come to discuss business. Next, I'm going to mobilize the army to go to futu mountain to rescue Xiu'er. You, also quickly mobilize the army, with me to save Yan Xing. Time is urgent and cannot be delayed. ""No, I can't!"
Han Sui shook his head and answered.
Han Sui's eyes were full of calm expression. He threw the ground and said in a voice: "brother, according to the description of the soldiers, today's futu mountain has turned into a sea of fire."
"All the soldiers are ambushed, our people, that is sure to lose."
"That's for sure."
"Under this premise, I think there are two results."
"Yanchao will go back to Machang County, and the first soldiers we need to escape are Chen Chao."
"Second, if they are trapped in a tight encirclement and unable to withdraw, it will be in Zhang Xiu's hands by this time. Even if we send troops to futu mountain, it will not help
Han Sui said, "whether we send troops or not now has little influence."
"For us, if we send troops now, it will easily lead to the emptiness of Chencang county. Once we leave, Chencang county is attacked and sunk again, and we have no way to go back, which means that we have been taken out of the rear. "
"It's extremely terrifying."
"I came to you in a hurry to persuade you not to be impulsive."
"Even if Ma Xiu and Yan Xing were defeated, you and I each had more than 10000 elites. It was more than enough to garrison Chencang county. If Zhang Xiu wants to capture Chencang, he can't succeed without thirty or fifty thousand troops. "
Han Sui said: "as long as we delay, Zhang Xiu will retreat."
When Ma Teng heard Han Sui's indifferent words, he immediately became angry and said, "Han Sui, it's your business that you don't rescue Yan Xing. Your heart is as cold as iron. That's your business. If you don't send troops, that's your business. But I, marten, have to help Hugh. That's my son. Something happened to him. I have to go. If you don't send troops, leave. Don't get in the way here. "
Han Sui saw that Ma Teng didn't know what to do, and his expression cooled down. He said, "Ma Teng, you will regret it."
"I don't regret it!"
Ma Teng made a firm answer.
Han Sui's face was full of disdain and regret. Ma Teng, who is so energetic, can hardly achieve great things. But he can't stop Ma Teng, big sleeve a whisk, scold a way: "common son is not enough with it plan!"
He turned and left.
As soon as Han Sui left, Ma Chao followed him.
Ma Chao is tall and straight, his face is like jade crown, his eyes are like meteors, his body is tiger, and his arms are ape, which gives us a very strong feeling. Although Ma Chao is only in his early twenties, he has begun to grow whiskers under his jaw, which makes him feel precocious.
When he entered the camp, he saw Ma Teng, his expression was very flat, and he said, "father, what's the matter?"
Ma Teng said, "immediately mobilize all your cavalry and follow me to mount futu."
Ma Chao said: "why?"
Ma Chao is extremely dissatisfied with Ma Teng's arrangement for Ma Xiu to fight. Because it is clear that Ma Teng wants to let Ma Xiu make contributions so that he can compete with him.
Now Ma Teng let him go to futu mountain without saying a word. It must be something wrong with Ma Xiu.
Ma Teng said: "the ambush of futu mountain was defeated. Your second brother was surrounded by many people. Now, we have to go to the rescue. "
Immediately, Ma Teng said about Duan Yi's report.
"No!"
Ma Chao didn't even think about it and refused.
"Rebellious son, do you really not go?" Ma Teng's face was cold at the moment. Looking at the horse, his arms were blue, and he couldn't help it.
Ma Chao raised his head and said angrily, "why, is father going to do it again? Yes, you can. Anyway, my Ma Chao was born with rough skin and thick meat, which is resistant to beating. Since I was a child, you treated me like this. I'm used to it. "
"You..."
Ma Teng was very angry.
He didn't expect Ma Chao to be so uncooperative at this time.
Ma Chao continued: "everyone knows that father dotes on his second brother. But the current situation, since the second younger brother has been trapped, the biggest possibility is that the second younger brother was won by Zhang Xiu. What's the point of going for help now? It's better to stay in Chencang. "
Ma Teng was so angry that his whole body trembled slightly. He said angrily, "that's your second brother, you bastard!"
"Second brother?"
Ma Chao looked scornful and gritted his teeth: "Ma Xiu always regards himself as his own son. When do you regard Ma Chao as my elder brother? When did my father look me in the eye. All I have now is what I put together and got from the battlefield. What about the second brother? He doesn't need to do anything, just have his father's arrangement. He's your son, just like me. Why is he so lucky? "
"You son of a bitch!"
The horse puffed out.
"Pa!"
The slap was clear and loud, coming from the tent.
Ma Chao's handsome and angular face left a bright red five fingerprints.
Ma Chao gave a sad smile, shrugged and said: "fight, I don't care. Anyway, you are my father. If you want to beat me, I can't say anything. But it's impossible for me to send troops. The four thousand excellent cavalry under Ma Chao's command can't move a soldier or a soldier! ""You..."
Ma Teng was so angry again that he roared, "get out of here, get out of here!"
Ma Chao flicks his big sleeve and turns to leave.
Just Ma Chao left the back, a little more lonely and rickets. He has been trying to show himself since childhood, hoping to get Ma Teng's respect and recognition. The more powerful he is, the more he makes Ma Teng feel embarrassed.
Because he blocked Matthew's way.
Ma Chao's heart is full of resentment.
Ma Teng looked at Ma Chao's back and said: "Ma Chao, if you go out of this camp, you will not be my son."
Ma is in shape.
He turned around and looked at Ma Teng, with a touch of nostalgia in his eyes.
Ma Teng's face brightened.
Did Ma Chao change his mind? Just when Ma Teng's heart was full of hope, he saw that Ma Chao's face was solemn, his hands closed and bowed respectfully to Ma Teng.
Then Ma Chao turned around and left without looking back.
"Son of a bitch!"
Ma Teng's face turned red with anger.
He never thought that Ma Chao would make such an extreme move.
Damn it.
After Ma Teng's anger, he had nothing to do with Ma Chao. Today's Ma Chao is invincible with 4000 elite riders. He is an important force that Ma Teng urgently needs. His strength is very strong, and Ma Teng can't help it.
Moreover, Ma Teng can't really fight with Ma Chao, so he can only let Ma Chao's strength expand. Ma Teng couldn't persuade Ma Chao to send troops, so he had to send orders and mobilize his soldiers to leave Chencang County overnight and go to futu mountain.
