"There is naturally a strategy to break the enemy, Ma Yuanjun don't worry, this king has his own way to defeat the Ma family army and protect the people of Tianshui from slaughter," Liu Ping said confidently.

Seeing that Liu Ping said so confidently, Ma Zun's eyes lit up, and he happily came over: "Could it be that the king has already asked Prime Minister Xu Du Cao for help?" Are Cao's reinforcements already on the way? ”

"Reinforcements? I didn't say there were reinforcements. Liu Ping's eyes widened.

"No reinforcements? The king wouldn't just expect the army in front of him to defeat the Ma family's army, right? At this time, the chief secretary Liang Qian said in surprise: "Although he is a scribe, he has also followed Ma Taishou before, recruited village warriors, fought several battles with bandits, and knows a little about military affairs.

If you are not mistaken, the number of enemy troops outside the city is several times that of the king, if there are no reinforcements, how can the king break the enemy? ”

"Presumptuous!" Zhang Liao stood up from behind him and said with a calm face: "The strategy to break the enemy is a military secret, how can you inquire at will?"

The matter of the war has nothing to do with you, and you can wait for you to go back and wait in peace. ”

Zhang Liao is the god of killing in the world, and there are countless people who have died under him, and he naturally has a kind of evil aura on his body, and he can easily scare people away when he speaks with a straight face.

But who would have thought that Liang Qian was not afraid at all, and stepped forward and sneered: "It has nothing to do with us? Go back and wait with peace of mind?

If Ma Teng is allowed to kill him, he will slaughter the people in my city, how can he say that it has nothing to do with us? How else can I wait and wait?

I don't understand, before my horse envoy Jun recruited the village warriors here, although the army is not strong, but it can also protect the people from infringement, why is it that now that the king is here, the people of the city are in danger of being slaughtered? ”

"What do you mean?" Zhang Liao pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword, and said angrily: "Do you think that we brought this matter here?"

What a guts! ”

As he spoke, Cang Langlang let out a loud voice and pulled out his bright long sword.

Although Zhang Liao seems to be loyal, as a military general, how can he be a good-tempered person?

He put the sword on Liang Qian's neck and said sharply: "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, this Tianshui is the Tianshui under the rule of my lord, not a private camp, how can you be allowed to bark here?"

If you dare to say more, I'll cut off your dog's head. ”

Zhang Liao's murderous aura between his gestures made the clerical officials chill.

Taishou Ma Zunzheng was about to step forward to plead, but Liang Qian waved his hand without fear, unhurriedly took out a large handful of bamboo pieces from his arms, held them in his hands, and said loudly: "General Zhang Wenyuan killed me, but it was just a gesture, but you know what this is?"

These are the past two days, I, Qiao Zhuangcheng, have become an ordinary person in Tianshui City, casually asking the people for the answers.

Among the hundreds, more than 90 people felt that there was no chance of winning this battle, and hoped that the king would quickly open the city and surrender.

This represents the surging public opinion of the people, and the whole city is wishing for this, can General Zhang Wenyuan kill all the people in the city? ”

This guy actually ran a poll.

Of course, when the city is besieged, random interviews with the people, and the threat of Ma Teng first, public opinion is naturally one-sided.

For every ordinary person, it doesn't matter who rules Shuicheng on this day, the important thing is that they want to save their lives and let the family live a small life in peace.

At this time, they could not see any hope of victory, and naturally hoped that Liu Ping would open the city to make peace with Ma Teng, so as not to let them suffer from the slaughter of the Ma clan.

"If the whole city rebels, what if the whole city is killed?" Zhang Liao's tone was cold, and these words popped out from between his teeth, which made people shudder to hear.

"The order of the lord, if anyone dares to disobey, there will be no forgiveness!" At the same time, Xu Huang and Zhou Cang also pulled out the long swords at their waists.

In their hearts, although the slaughter of the city is not a good thing, it is not impossible.

Looking at the situation, today's group of scribes are led by Liang Qian, and they have come to force the palace with public opinion, so they will cut off the first bird, and then whoever comes out will cut whom, and the whole city will kill all the people in the city.

At this time, I still listen to the people, and I am used to it!

Zhang Liao smiled evilly, turned his sword sideways, glanced at Liu Ping, and prepared to start killing.

Liu Ping shook his head slightly, glanced at the officials, and said with a grim face: "You think that there are no reinforcements in this battle, and this king has no way out except to surrender in Kaicheng, right?"

Wrong, this king only relied on these soldiers to defeat the Ma family's army, and show it to you. ”

He pointed at Liang Qian again and said, "Put this person in prison for the time being, and see what kind of face he has on the day when my army wins." ”

Liang Qian seemed to have let go, and was not afraid of life and death, but sneered and said: "Okay, I will open my eyes and see how the king wins."

But it probably backfired, and I'm afraid I'll see how the Ma family army breaks through the city.

At that time, the people of Jucheng were killed, and when I got to the Huangquan Road, I asked the king how he had won. ”

"Hold on!"

Liu Ping waved his hand, it's not interesting to be with this kind of person here, just put the facts in front of you when the time comes.

After driving everyone away, Liu Ping said to Zhang Liao: "Let me check privately, whether this Liang Qian is in charge of this matter, and whether there is a mastermind behind it." ”

"Does the lord think that Liang Qian can't do these things alone?" Zhang Liaodao.

"I just think it's strange, Liang Qian's words here are sharp, but until he was arrested, no one stood up to intercede for him, isn't it strange?"

"It seems a little strange for the lord to say this.

It seemed that this Liang Qian was actively seeking death, but his colleagues were watching and were silent.

If it weren't for the perverse behavior of this person, who made everyone angry and angry, I am afraid that this kind of thing would never have happened.

I'm going to look it up. ”

……

These days, the rain has not stopped, and as a result, the water level of the river that flows through Tianshui has skyrocketed.

Tai Shici led the army to secretly build an embankment here for more than ten days.

He now knew that the lord sent him out to rob the grain was just a pretense, and building a dam and attacking it with water was the real purpose of the lord.

It hadn't rained when they first arrived, and the river wasn't wide, so it wasn't difficult to build an embankment to hold back the water.

However, with the continuous rains of the past few days, the water level of the river has risen higher and higher, and the embankment he built has almost become unstoppable, and under the interception of the embankment, a huge lake has appeared, and the lake is still growing.

"Continue to build for me, the higher the better," Tai Shici commanded in the rain and roared loudly: "When the time comes, I will rush all those horses into the river to feed Wang Ba." ”

Cheng Gongying said with a smile: "The general doesn't know, there are not many soldiers in the Xiliang army who know the nature of water, if they are washed into the water, they will drown nine times out of ten, and then the crisis in Tianshui City will be solved."

It's just that the lord seems to favor Ma Chao and wants to accept this person for his own use, if he drowns with him, I'm afraid the lord will blame him when he arrives. ”
