A fire in Xiaoguan had been extinguished, wisps of green smoke were rising from the blackened city gate, and the air was filled with the disgusting smell of barbecue.

A commander who had escaped from the fire in the city was reporting casualties in front of Helian, and a fire broke out in Mayue, burning unprecedentedly vigorously.

"Damn! Hateful! A fire burned down 4,000 of my Xianbei warriors! ”

The elite in Helian's hands was burned to death by thousands, and he was so angry that he raised his horsewhip and slapped it on the face of the commander who reported it, and Helian said angrily: "Ask!" Ask me who the Han army guard is! Grab him, I'm going to eat him alive! ”

"King, Micah will definitely catch this Han army guard for you and crush him to ashes!"

The Lord of the Middle Tribe, Micah, was also furious at this time, and the fire at Xiaoguan not only burned two thousand elites of Helian, but also burned to death two thousand warriors from his own tribe, which made him feel distressed.

Damn, I knew that Lao Tzu would take five thousand slaves out of Xianbei, look at Budugen, this bastard is not distressed at all.

Of course, Budugen is not distressed, at this moment, Budugen is sitting on the ground hooking the corners of his mouth and throwing stones, and it doesn't matter how many people are burned to death. Of the 5,000 people he brought out, 4,000 were his old slaves, and they couldn't be hurt when they died. Only a thousand of the main army did not die at the head of the city, they were hiding in dark corners waiting for their prey to take the bait.

On the contrary, it was Putou, and he looked worried.

It didn't take long for the commander to return to Helian with a blood-red whip print, and his eyebrows lowered and he confided a name.

"Ma Yue, a native of Liangzhou, someone heard this name when the Han reinforcements arrived."

Pu Tou patted Bu Dugen and said seriously: "Remember this name, if you don't die this time, you will definitely be my Xianbei henchman." ”

Bu Dugen threw away the stone, patted his clothes and stood up with a disdainful face, spat on the ground, and said: "Big brother, you are too careful, what is the name of Ma Yue, who is a Taishou at the border of the Han Dynasty, what kind of wind can Lang, the major affairs of their Han Dynasty are not in the hands of those wastes in Luoyang, don't think so much, sooner or later, we Xianbei will step on Luoyang and kill them cleanly!" ”

Turning around, Bu Dugen turned over and got on the horse, and halfway up, Bu Dugen slapped his forehead and scolded: "Big brother, I remember, I have heard the name Ma Yue, but he is from Bingzhou." Fuck, the Han Dynasty called Ma Yue so capable of fighting? ”

Pu Tou was stunned for a moment, reached out and scratched his nose and asked, "When have you ever heard this name, why haven't I heard of it?" ”

Bu Dugen's eyes widened and said, "Do you remember a few years ago, when we fought and merged with the state, just the year you fought Luo County." ”

Pu Tou frowned and said: "I can remember until I die, Luo County let me defeat 8,000 people before I entered the city, and finally a Han Dynasty general came and scattered all my remaining people, is it ......" Pu Tou paused and said: "This Ma Yue is the Han Dynasty general who led the cavalry?" ”

Seeing that his brother was thinking in the wrong direction, Bu Dugen hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Where, Ma Yue has nothing to do with the Han Dynasty general who loves to drink, it's my side, this man named Ma Yue led dozens of people to kill me several teams of scouts, and left his name on the ground, which made me remember, I didn't think that he was still alive after a few years." ”

At this moment, the first horse on the front waved his whip and ordered: "Clear the road in the Kannai for me, rest for one night, and rush into the Northland tomorrow!" ”

Rest, now Ma Yue wants to rest more than anyone else.

This day's life just thinks about him and he feels tired, running from Lingzhou to Xiaoguan for two hours non-stop, fighting with the Xianbei people, setting fire and running back to Lingzhou non-stop.

He was getting tired.

But he could not climb down, and behind him were more than three hundred men, all of whom were almost asleep with their hoes and straddles their horses.

As soon as Yin Shi entered Lingzhou County, Ma Yue summoned Lingzhou military and political officials at all levels to the county magistrate.

"Su County Order, please write a battle report for me and pass it on to Huangfu Taishou, where is Huangfu Taishou now?"

Su Zhenghe thought for a while and replied: "Huangfu Taishou should have received a beacon warning last night, and the starry night should arrive in Fuping tomorrow morning." ”

Ma Yue nodded in a deep voice, Fuping he knew, when he came to Lingzhou to take office, it took five hours to get to Lingzhou.

Ma Yue said: "Zhangxian Cheng can send people to send the war report to Fuping to wait for the emperor to defend too much, Xianbei over the border of 10,000 Kou, the siege was beheaded by 5,000, Cao Hu's army was killed in battle with thousands of defenders, the defenders were difficult to resist being attacked by Xianbei into the pass, leading thousands of enemy troops into the city after sealing the second gate and burning Xiao Pass, Xianbei should now have more than 10,000 soldiers and horses. Arrived in Lingzhou at noon at the earliest, and hoped that the emperor Fu Taishou would send troops to support. ”

Su Zhenghe and Zhang He's eyes widened in surprise: "Ma County Lieutenant burned Xiao Guan?" Isn't that more than 10,000 ranks? ”

When Ma Yue heard this, his body shook.

I, because of me, 10,000 dead?

Ma Yue, who has always been in a state of high mental tension and excitement, never thought that what he did would cause so many people to lose their lives, and at this time, Su Zhenghe's words made Ma Yue shudder.

Taking a deep breath to stabilize his mind, Ma Yue ignored Su Zhenghe and said to Dou Liang, who was resting on the side: "Dou Junhou, in the entire Lingzhou, how many people are still able to fight?" ”

Dou Liang's large and small wounds have been simply bandaged, and at this time, he was kneeling on the side wearing a regular clothes, and when he heard Ma Yue calling him, Dou Liang rubbed his eyebrows and said: "There are still 1,400 people and horses in Lingzhou, and there are still 2,000 sons and daughters who can afford to hold a knife if you count the wounded soldiers." ”

Glancing at Dou Liang, the face of the man who crawled out of the sea of corpses and bones was full of vicissitudes and exhaustion, and Ma Yue asked, "How is the injury of the military candidate?" ”

Dou Liang smiled faintly and said: "There is the county lieutenant Lao who is concerned, it is not in the way, the county lieutenant can rest assured, Dou Liang can still put on armor and go into battle under the Xianbei soldiers in the city." ”

Ma Yue was infected by Dou Liang's bold spirit, and said with a smile: "Haha, Dou Junhou is so bold!" The county order wrote a private letter for me again, and handed it to the emperor too shou, I wanted to resist the enemy under the city of Lingzhou, made enough traps on the road, and tried my best to delay the arrival of the Xianbei army, if the emperor Fu Taishou had arrived, please enter the city, if the Xianbei army arrived early, please ask the emperor to guard the ambush in the south of the city, and Xianbei attacked the city with me inside and outside. ”

Everyone was curious, and Dou Liang said with a smile: "The military is a good courage, and the Xianbei army still has the energy to place traps in the future!" ”

Ma Yue smiled slyly and said, "Don't worry, although there are still more than 10,000 in Xianbei, as long as the Emperor Fu Taishou leads the army to support the enemy and us, there will not be any difference in the number of the two sides." ”

"I want to sleep, but I am afraid that the Xianbei army will come too fast, so when I come back, I ordered Peng Tuo to dig traps every five hundred steps on the road, and there are countless broken horse ditches on the road, with them, it will take at least three hours for the Xianbei army to reach Lingzhou, so as to win a little respite for us."
