"It's down there!"

Yan Keqiu bowed to Ma Teng again.

Ma Teng grabbed Yan Keqiu's arm, quite nostalgic, and said with emotion: "Back then, Mr. was under the command of the prince to staff the military aircraft, and he talked a lot, so that a certain mouth was suddenly opened, it can be said that if there was no Mr., there would be no Ma Teng now!" ”

"At the beginning, the prince didn't listen to Mr., and his body was wiped out, so he sent troops to find Mr., but he found nothing, and now he meets, but he doesn't want Mr. to be an official under the command of the Duke of Han!"

"Thank you, General, for your concern!" Yan Ke asked.

Ma Teng let go of Yan Keqiu's arm, stopped speaking, and walked a few steps forward before he said, "Since Mr. is here, it seems that the son who is not very successful should be safe and sound!" ”

"The general guessed correctly, the major general is fine, it just restricts freedom!"

Ma Teng's heart was relieved, he returned to his seat, and said to Ma Dai: "Dai'er, go and pour a cup of hot tea for Mr., Sir, please take a seat!" ”

Ma Dai took the order and left.

"What do you mean, sir, please make it clear!"

Yan Keqiu said: "I came today to save the lives of the general's family!" ”

"Haha, save the life of a certain race? Although Mr. is a great talent, he can't just talk about it! What is the fear of a clan's life? ”

After hearing this, Ma Teng laughed.

Yan Keqiu didn't say much, just looked at Ma Teng with a smile, Ma Teng was a little hairy, his laughter gradually stopped, and he asked with a serious face: "What does Mr. mean?" Please also make it clear, don't beat around the bush, it's just a border county martial artist, I'm afraid I can't understand what Mr. said, and it's not good to have any misunderstanding! ”

Yan Keqiu looked at Ma Teng, flicked his cuffs, stroked his beard and asked, "Dare to ask the general, how many soldiers and horses are left in the headquarters now?" ”

"There are still six or seven thousand elite riders left!"

"Haha, don't deceive me, general! If the general believes me, please tell me the truth! Yan Keqiu said with a smile.

Ma Teng said: "There are five thousand left." ”

Yan Keqiu looked up to the sky and sighed, "It seems that the general still doesn't believe me!" Anyway, I won't say any more, and ask the general to let me go. ”

At this time, Ma Teng hurriedly walked to Yan Keqiu's approach, grabbed Yan Keqiu, who wanted to turn around and leave, with his heavy palm, and said apologetically: "Sir, I hope you don't want to be angry!" ”

sighed and said, "Well, it doesn't matter if you tell Mr. truthfully, after all, Chao'er is still in the Han army, so what can you do!" There are only 3,000 soldiers and horses left, many soldiers are still wounded, and more than half of their combat power has been lost. ”

"As I expected, General, you are about to come to disaster!"

Without waiting for Ma Teng to ask, Yan Keqiu said directly: "Dare to ask the general, with the current situation, does the Weizhou coalition army still have a glimmer of hope of defeating our Han army?" ”

"None."

Although Ma Teng was not angry, he also admitted that although the coalition army is still superior to the Han army, the coalition army is not evenly matched, but it only preserves its own strength, and its vision is narrow, how can it defeat the Han army?

"Who among the coalition forces can see that the coalition forces are not enough to defeat the Han army?" Yan Keqiu is asking.

"Han Yue Han Gong should be able to guess, after all, Han Gong is the most famous wise man in Weizhou."

"Since we can't defeat it, what should we do next?"

"Withdrawal?"

"That's right! General, Han Yue is a wise man, but what kind of person is Han Yue, presumably the general army should know better than me, although he seems to be like a generous elder, but his mind is vicious, no one can compare to his right, how did Han Yue start? How many people were killed? How many oaths are like farts in Han Yue's mouth, these generals must still be able to remember! ”

"This"

"If you want to defeat the Han army, there is only one way, that is, to use the familiarity with the terrain of Weizhou, clear the wall, and drag down the grain route of the Han army, and the major general is in our hands, the general you will not withdraw the army, so you will become the abandoned son of Han Yue, and when the general is defeated, how can the only remaining soldiers and horses resist the annexation of Han Yue? The general has a reputation in Weizhou, if he wants to occupy Weizhou, how can he spare the general's life! In the end, the Ma clan will be killed by Han Yue! Annihilation! General, am I right? ”

"That's not the way it is!"

Ma Teng's heart was confused by Yan Keqiu, and he didn't know what to do at all, and at this time, Ma Dai came in with a cup of tea, which also interrupted the conversation between the two, at least so that Ma Teng had time to think.

Yan Keqiu secretly said that it was a pity, there was still one step left, and he could completely defeat Ma Teng's heart, but now that it was like this, it didn't matter if it was one step or not.

Then they leisurely tasted tea.

Yan Keqiu frowned, this tea is not very good!

Ma Teng quietly glanced at Yan Keqiu, and found that Yan Keqiu's brows were tightly locked, and he suddenly panicked in his heart, and finally stopped hesitating, but made a big salute to Yan Keqiu, "As Mr. said, if a certain strength is not good, with his character, he will inevitably have the heart of annexation, please teach me, Mr." ”

Yan Keqiu grabbed Ma Teng's arms with both hands, helped Ma Teng up, and said to Ma Teng: "Now there is an opportunity, I wonder if the general is willing?" ”

"What?"

"Surrender to His Royal Highness the Duke of Han!"

Yan Keqiu looked at Ma Teng, who had an ugly face, of course he knew what Ma Teng thought, but he was not moved, but asked, "General, do you have any other way to go?" ”

"Surrender to His Royal Highness the Duke of Han, the general will not lose the position of the marquis, and even His Royal Highness is willing to guard Weizhou with the general, such preferential treatment, who can compare?"

Yan Keqiu asked step by step, he was a scribe, but Ma Teng, a burly general, had to retreat, and when there was no way to retreat, Ma Teng's shoulders dropped significantly, which was to give up resistance.

"A certain wish to surrender, the name of the Han Gong is like thunder, and a certain letter is believed!"

Ma Teng whispered.

"Great goodness!"

Yan Keqiu walked quickly to the desk, picked up the ink block and grinded it on the inkstone, dipped the brush with thick ink, and handed it to Ma Teng.

Since he was about to surrender, Ma Teng had nothing to say, took the brush, and wrote a surrender letter on the slip.

In just a moment, the ink had not yet dried, and it was held in Yan Keqiu's hand.

So Ma Teng asked Yan Keqiu: "Dare to ask sir, how to save a certain Ma clan?" ”

"That's easy!"

Yan Keqiu said with a smile: "If Han Yue and Li Zhang are eliminated, the Ma clan can be solved." ”

"Sir, please tell me more!"

Yan Keqiu came to Ma Teng's side, whispered a few words to Ma Teng, and then left Ma Teng's camp under the cover of Ma Dai.

Wait for Yan Keqiu to hand over Ma Teng's surrender to Liu De, and Liu De was overjoyed.

Immediately summoned the generals, "Now that Ma Teng has surrendered, it is one step closer to our unification of Weizhou, what should we do next?" ”

Xun You came out and said: "Your Highness, since you have discussed with General Ma, you should strike while the iron is hot, send troops tomorrow, and don't give Han Yue a chance to leave secretly, so that it is beneficial for General Ma to act!" ”

Yan Ke begged: "Your Royal Highness, General Ma hopes that we will put Ma Chao back, he said, with Ma Chao here, the possibility of success is higher." Chen quite agreed, although Ma Chao's martial arts are not top-notch, but they are unmatched in Weizhou, with Ma Chao here, smashing Huanglong and capturing Han Yue, it is almost foolproof. ”

"No!"

Liu Yu stood up and said: "Your Highness, if you put Ma Chao back, how can Ma Teng regret it, Ma Chao is in our hands, then Ma Teng will definitely throw a mouse trap and dare not regret it, we can send a general to replace Ma Chao, and we can also take the head of the enemy general from the army!" ”

"Reasonable, reasonable!"

Many people nodded and praised, what Liu Yu said is reasonable!

Sending a general over must be appropriate to release Ma Chao from the past.

Liu De showed the surrender letter written by Ma Teng in his hand to everyone, and said: "As the so-called suspicious people don't need to be used, there is no doubt about employing people, since Ma Teng has written a surrender letter, even if he wants to regret it, he must consider whether Han Yue still believes in him, and he believes in Ma Teng once, come to someone, and put Ma Chao back." instructed Ma Teng not to expose Ma Chao to others until the critical moment. ”

"Yes!"

Liu Dezai looked around at the generals and said, "You will act according to the plan tomorrow!" ”

"The last general understands!"

Ma Yubo took Yan Keqiu to the camp where Ma Chao was held, surrounded by soldiers with halberds, all of whom were elite halberds in Liu De's hands.

Ma Chao is strong in martial arts, and in order to prevent Ma Chao from escaping, it is normal to be careful.

"Major General!"

Ma Chao was lying lazily on the bed, and when he heard the call, he opened his eyes slightly, glanced at the two people standing in the tent, and then turned over and said, "What? Now it's time for dinner? ”

Yan Keqiu said: "Congratulations to the young general, congratulations to the young general!" ”

Ma Chao: "? ”

What the heck?

Of course, Ma Chao didn't understand where the joy came from, but this did not prevent Ma Chao from watching Yan Keqiu's liveliness on the sidelines, but Yan Keqiu's next sentence made Ma Chao completely unable to sit still.

"General Ma Teng has agreed to surrender to His Royal Highness the Duke of Han, and the young general can go back!"

"What!"

Ma Chao "poofed", stood up, and took two steps forward, Ma Yubo hurriedly protected Yan Keqiu, for fear that Ma Chao would be violent, but obviously Ma Chao didn't, but asked: "Are you using my life as a threat to make my father surrender!" ”

"Major General, what is the specific reason, you can ask General Ma in person, and when the Major General listens, he will understand the truth of the matter, now, General Ma can leave, but there are some things that need to be explained to General Ma, so this general next to me wants to go back with you!" Yan Ke asked.

"Just let me go?"

Ma Chao realized it later, and only then did he react, today's events had a big impact on him.

Ma Yubo bowed his hand to Ma Chao slightly, and said, "Young General, please!" General Ma has already sent your younger brother Ma Dai to answer him, so let's hurry over while it's dark. ”

Ma Chao had no choice but to let go of all the doubts in his heart, and followed Ma Yubo out of the tent, the soldiers had already prepared two war horses, and the two turned over and went directly to Ma Teng's camp.

On the way, Ma Yubo said to Ma Chao: "Young General, my name is Ma Yubo, if you want to talk about it, we are all surnamed Ma, maybe we were a family hundreds of years ago!" ”

"Da Da Da!"

Listening to the sound of horses' hooves, Ma Chao sat on the horse intently, looking ahead, obviously not like taking care of Ma Yubo.

Ma Yubo was not discouraged, but chattered,

I talked a lot about it, I talked a lot about it, from militaristic affairs to my parents, but Ma Chao was so annoyed that I just wanted to go back to the camp quickly and ask my father for an understanding.

Soon, Ma Chao saw his cousin leading a group of cavalry waiting on the side, and after the convergence, he didn't have time to catch up, so he quickly divided into several units and returned to Ma Teng's camp, just in case other heroes were suspicious.

"Father!"

Ma Chao came in a hurry, Ma Teng was also overjoyed to see Ma Chao, took Ma Chao's hand, and said with relief: "It's good if there's nothing to do, it's good if there's nothing to do!" ”

"Father, have you surrendered to Liu Hangong?"

Ma Chao was halfway through speaking, and just remembered that there was a general under the command of Han Gong next to him, so he quickly changed his vocabulary and asked.

As Liu De expected, Ma Teng has already written a letter of surrender, of course it is impossible to repent, if he repents, the letter of surrender in Liu De's hand is evidence, which is enough to make Ma Teng unable to eat and walk around.

"That's right!"

Ma Teng informed Ma Chao of everything that Yan Keqiu analyzed.

Ma Chao's mouth opened wide in surprise, "Father, this Han Yue is so vicious?" At the beginning, he raised his hand with you and Li Zhang and swore an oath! ”

"Alas, there was a reason at the beginning, but Han Yue is indeed ruthless, as long as we are weak, he will attack us like a poisonous snake, at that time, what should our clan in Jincheng do!"

Ma Teng sighed.

"Father, what are we going to do now?"

Ma Chao asked.

"Tomorrow, His Royal Highness the Duke of Han will definitely do his best, and we will cooperate with His Royal Highness the Duke of Han!"

At this time, Ma Teng arched his hand to Ma Yubo and said, "I'm going to bother the general tomorrow!" ”

Ma Yubo hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare, if you really want to talk about it, there will still be a certain danger tomorrow, and please be fully prepared!" ”

"That's for sure!"

After discussing the military, Ma Teng also chatted with Ma Yubo casually, only to learn that Ma Yubo's eldest sister turned out to be Liu De's concubine, and gave birth to Liu De's eldest son.

Ma Teng smiled at this time: "General Ma is also surnamed Ma, maybe our two families were still one family five hundred years ago!" ”

After hearing this, Ma Yubo laughed and nodded again and again, obviously agreeing with Ma Teng.

Ma Chao rolled his eyes angrily.

After talking about this seat, the two got a lot closer.

At dawn on the second day, Han Yue sent his guards over and said to Ma Teng: "General Qiyu, General Han asks the general to go to the big tent of the Chinese army to discuss the military aircraft." ”

Ma Teng nodded, and followed the guards to the Chinese army's tent.

After Han Yue saw Ma Teng, he actually came down in person, grabbed Ma Teng's hand, and greeted him with a few warm greetings.

Han Yue didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "The old man pondered all night, and finally thought of how to defeat the Han army, come on!" Bring me the map."

The map was soon hung up in the account, Han Yue pointed to several cities, and said: "Our advantage over the Han army is that there are many soldiers and horses, so we can divide the troops, stretch the battle line, and force Liu De to divide the troops, so that Liu De's defense line will be full of loopholes, and we can send a group of soldiers and horses to cross the river directly, sneak attack Luanzhou, and force the Han army to retreat."

When Han Yue talked about the rise, he only heard a report from outside the tent!

"Report! Lord! The Han army has gathered a large army to attack! ”

"What !!"
