Just when Ma Chao was full of ambition, he saw Ma Teng leading a group of guards and his followers to the city wall.

Ma Teng's face was solemn, and after he raised his eyes and saw Ma Chao, he said in a deep voice:

"Meng Qi, spread scouts from afar, built camps, and the army was stationed in Huaili, waiting for the arrival of Yizhou people."

Ma Chao also smelled an abnormal aura from his father's words, and he asked in surprise:

"Aren't you going to drive Chang'an in one go?"

You know, two days ago, Ma Teng was still complacent about the fact that his soldiers and horses were closest to Chang'an, and after capturing Huaili, the west of Chang'an was opened, and Chang'an City was also at his fingertips, and their Xiliang cavalry was good at rushing and raiding.

"The spy reported that something happened in Chang'an City, Li Dao, Guo Yan and others were already prepared, and Fan Chou's department also led the army to pull out the camp and rushed to Huaili, and the plan to attack Chang'an was no longer feasible."

After Ma Teng finished speaking, he also slapped the wall buttress unwillingly, stirring up a layer of dust, but Ma Teng didn't care about it, thinking that his plan to enter Chang'an first and control the court fell short, he suddenly scolded and said:

"Ma Yu's group of rotten Confucians in Chang'an City is really more than defeated, not enough to plan, not to mention the big things, and the soldiers and horses under my command are trapped in the right Fufeng, if it is not for the soldiers and horses of the state, I really want to cut them all down with a knife!"

For Ma Yu, Chong Shao, Liu Fan and other personnel defeated to vote, Ma Teng naturally will not have a good face, the original agreement should be outside, but because Ma Yu leaked his whereabouts, which led to the failure of Ma Teng's entire plan to enter Beijing, he also moved all the troops to the right to support the wind in order to attack Chang'an, and the result was naturally that the army fell into a situation where it was impossible to advance or retreat.

"Don't worry, my lord, I will wait for this time to come east, invincible all the way, and the three auxiliary soldiers and horses are bold, so there is no need to worry. Boy, please go to Fan Chou's department! ”

Ma Chao's young temperament, although he heard the leakage of Chang'an's internal affairs, he didn't think so, and took the initiative to ask for help, and led the troops to meet and rescue Fan Chou's department in Huaili.

"The child is arrogant, thinking that if he captures a few cities, he can really dominate the world, Fan Chou was originally a general of Dong Ying, you don't have to be careless, underestimate the heroes of the world!"

Ma Teng listened to Ma Chao's enthusiastic invitation to fight, although he scolded sharply, but his heart was still full of calf licking feelings, his son, not only looks similar to himself, with a thick body and a majestic appearance, but also inherited the brave blood of the Ma family, and he can lead troops to fight since he was a child.

Although he was controlled by Han Sui in Liangzhou and could not dominate alone, his own heirs were much stronger than his fake sons, and over time, his father and son might not be able to ······

Thinking that Han Sui, who was the dominant man in Liangzhou, had no children under his knees, and only had a fake son who could be mediocre, Ma Teng felt a little more proud in his heart.

It's just that at the moment, they can't enter the army. Ma Teng is not worried about Fan Chou's troops, but he has to take care of the combined troops of Li Dao, Guo Yan and others, Li and Guo Suo's troops plus the soldiers and horses requisitioned by Sanfu, the soldiers have exceeded 100,000, and they are still fighting in Guanzhong, and they will not be troubled by grain and grass in a short time.

Li Dao, Guo Yan and others have strong troops, and they undoubtedly have a steady advantage.

Ma Teng could only stop the pace of the march, looking at Chang'an City, which was still within reach not long ago, and sighed, and at the same time pinned his hopes on the arrival of Shudi soldiers and horses.

Just as Ma Teng was thinking about the current predicament, the stubby-eyed Ma Yi stepped up the city wall quickly, and he cautiously leaned over to Ma Teng and whispered:

"Brother, there is news from Longyou, Han Sui led Jincheng and Longxi soldiers and horses, gathered Qiang, Di, and Hu tribes, raised 100,000 troops, passed Longguan, and also came to Guanzhong, he said that he was coming to persuade us and others to fight with Fan Chou."

As soon as Ma Teng heard Ma Yi's words, his eyes instantly widened, his eyes were about to split, and his face seemed to be smiling but not smiling, which was terrifying.

Guanzhong Lu Fat, does Han Sui also want to get a piece of the pie?

···

Zuo Fengyi, Linjin City.

In recent months, first Hedong and Hongnong sent troops to attack Henan, and then Ma Teng, who was on the right side of the wind, suddenly raised troops, invaded Sanfu, flew and rode feathers, and was in a hurry.

Even, there are many fugitives in Guanzhong who have taken refuge in the land of Xihe.

Ganling's life was also comfortable, according to Yan Xing's instructions to cross the river, he extended his grace to appease the Qiang people in Zuo Fengyi's territory, and used money and silk to solicit and bribe the Qianghu tribes such as the Shen clan of Shangjun, the Qiang of all species, and the Hu tribe of Shangjun, plus the salt and iron supplied by Hedong, when he won over Qianghu, it was even smoother.

From last year to the present, many Qianghu tribes have been co-opted by Ganling, and Ganling has also tried his best to implement Yan Xing's strategy of "pampering his rich chieftain and collecting his elite cavalry", recruiting many cavalry of the Qianghu tribe and restricting them in the art of war, so as to expand his own troops.

On the plain field, Ganling led a group of Qianghu cavalry to gallop on horseback, these men who grew up on horseback since childhood were all skilled in horsemanship, and could easily ride their horses through the woods, over the hills and gallop down the high ground, the knights whistled like the wind, outflanked left and right, and drove the alarmed prey unhurriedly to the northern encirclement according to the drums and banners of Ganling.

"All evil, you take a team of cavalry, outflank from the left, stop the prey from fleeing to the west, and drive them due north."

"Shen Rui, you take a team of cavalry, outflank them from the right, stop the prey from escaping to the east, and drive them due north."

"No, no!"

Gan Ling calmly ordered on the back of the galloping horse, and the two Qiang knights beside him, who were wearing left hair and agile skills, responded loudly when they heard the sound, turned the horse's head, beckoned the cavalry of the tribe behind him, and roared to outflank and drive away the prey.

Gan Ling often led the Qianghu cavalry out to hunt, so as to restrain them with the golden drum banner, all to evil, Shen Rui are the children of the Shen clan of Shangjun and the Qiang Hao chieftain of all no species, they have been sent by the clan to follow the garrison of Xihe Ganling for a long time, take the name of the Han people, and can also identify the golden drum banner in the army, and respond in blunt Chinese.

Looking at the roaring and running all the evil and Shen Rui, Gan Ling smiled, then turned his head to look at a rough-looking Feng Yiqiang Hao chief wearing a silver ring next to him and said:

"Master Fu Mengji, you and my righteous servants can be compared later, so that we can also see the cavalry shooting of your Feng Yiqiang people."

"Haha, okay, Zhonglang will have this Yaxing, of course we won't refuse."

As he spoke, Fu Mengji had already turned around and ordered the clansmen he had brought, "Feng Yiqiang's warriors, you have already come to the examination school, raise your bows and arrows, open your eyes, and show them to Zhonglang General!" ”

Gan Ling listened to Fu Mengji's words, smiled faintly, and said to a bearded man with thick hair and a stout physique beside him:

"Wulou Thorn, you come, take our people and try it with Feng Yiqiang's warriors."

"Yes, my lord."

When Fu Mengji heard Gan Ling use Hu to communicate with his subordinates, he was stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief:

"General Zhonglang, I really didn't want you to speak the language of their Hu people."

Gan Ling rolled his gaze, looked at Fu Mengji and said with a smile:

"This is not surprising, just like you Feng Yiqiang migrated and settled in the Han land for a long time, and understood the language and customs of our Han people, I also learned the language of the local Qiang people and Hu people when I was a ranger in Jincheng and other places in the past, and now I have more of these righteous servants under my command, like the Hu people from Shangjun who I just now, so I learned to use the language of their tribe to communicate with them."

"I see, General Zhonglang is really not an ordinary person, at least it is much more interesting than the Han officials and generals I have seen in the past."

Fumunki was amazed, patted the saddle and smiled.

Just as the two rode their horses and laughed and talked, the Qiang Hu Yi servants under the command of Gan Ling had already rushed the prey frightened out of the dense forest and grass into the arc encirclement, and a horn sounded, and the other Yi Cong, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately opened the big net, pulled up the fence, and set up spears, blocking the last escape direction of these prey.

An adult male elk ran in front of him, and when he saw that there were many more people and obstacles in front of him, and there was a rapid shout behind him, he rushed to the fence desperately with his strong horns in a panic.

Just when everyone thought that the panicked elk was about to crash into the fence, the male elk's well-developed leg muscles tensed suddenly, and he kicked his hooves more than a foot away from the fence, and actually jumped in the air, and flew forward quickly with the momentum of the charge.

"What a cunning brute!"

Fumunki flicked his whip in the air with a crisp sound, and said in admiration, but just as he finished speaking, the elk that had leapt over the fence was pierced through its body with a spear that was quickly extended, and a knight who was ready to fight with both arms flicked out, and the beast, which was almost about to jump out of the encirclement, spilled a cloud of blood and fell back from mid-air with a loud bang.

The smoke and dust raised made the other prey that escaped behind them stop one after another, and the shouts of the chase behind were getting closer and closer, and many prey were in a desperate situation, and they couldn't help but let out a mournful wail, but the knights who hunted were not merciful, and each holding a bow and arrow scattered into a fan-shaped array, approaching the desperate prey step by step.

"The hunt has begun!"

As soon as Gan Ling gave an order, the righteous servants around him set out one after another, straddled their horses, held bows and arrows, and rushed towards the panicked prey, and Feng Yiqiang's knights were not far behind, patting their mounts and speeding up to chase over.

For a time, the sound of the bowstring ringing sounded intensively, and the arrows on both sides continued to shoot towards the targeted prey, and the prey that was shot in the vital place was killed instantly, and the wailing of the prey that was still lingering intensified the panic of the other prey, and some roe deer and deer rushed desperately to the fence and the dense net, and the sharp spears of the knights who were waiting for them were killed one by one.

In the meantime, there was a fangs exposed, the grumpy wild bion violently planed, arched, and hit the foundation of the fence, so that a small section of the fence was broken, and the wild bi, who smelled the breath of escape, jumped suddenly, and the front half of his body had broken through the fence, at this time a guard knight hurriedly used a spear to assassinate the wild bi, but although the spear entered the body, the wild bi was rough and thick, and it blocked the vital point stubbornly.

The wound on the body aroused the ferocity of the wild boy, and the knight with the spear was immediately taken off the horse by the momentum of the wild boy, and the fangs of the wild man were also aimed at the knight who fell to the ground, and at this dangerous moment, the knight who had just picked the stag rushed over and stabbed the wild beast in the neck with a short knife, completely ending the rampaging beast.

The knight's bravery immediately attracted the attention and admiration of the distant Fumonki, and it was a long time before Fumonki turned his gaze back to him and turned his attention back to the hunting grounds.

At this moment, in the hunting ground, in the face of the reinforced fence, the prey that has cut off the escape route can only continue to run in the space set up for them, and the knights on both sides occupy one side, do not give in to each other, and use their means to fiercely compete for the final victory glory of this mounted hunt.

Feng Yiqiang's knights rode their horses to chase the prey running around, and the formation became more and more chaotic in the back, and several people shot at the same prey at the same time, while Ganling's righteous servants still hunted according to the banner and horn, cooperating and marching together, forcing the prey that wanted to escape back to the open space in front of them again and again, and then shooting them one by one.

Seeing such a scene, Gan Ling didn't have to wait for the last two sides to count the number of prey, he already knew that his side's righteous servants would win steadily, and the arrows used by the righteous servants were all made by the Hedong Armory Workshop, and he was not afraid that Feng Yiqiang's knights would take over.

He smiled, pointed to a tabernacle that had been laid in advance, and said to Fu Monki, who was staring at the middle of the field:

"Master Fumonki, let's go over there and sit down and drink, and wait for the warriors who will return victorious."

"Eh, okay, Zhonglang will please!"

Fu Mengji paid close attention to the changes in the prey shot by both sides in the field, but when he saw Gan Ling's indifferent attitude, he did not want to show weakness, so he immediately pretended to be careless and confident, and followed Gan Ling to wait in the tent.

By the time the two of them drank in the tent and their faces were red, the comparison on the hunting ground was over.

Ganling laughed in his tent, sent someone to reward his servant, gave everyone the prey on the hunting ground, and invited Fu Mengji to stay and share the tender and delicious roasted venison with him

In the tabernacle, the fire was blazing, and a skinned elk was roasted over the fire, and the knight, who had picked up the stag and stabbed the wild man, took off his armor and wore a leather robe, and roasted the meat himself, turning the venison and applying grease, salt, and spices, and the smell of roasted venison gradually spread in the tent as time went on.

"My righteous servant is called Servant Gulu, his race is Qiuci people, and later mixed with Qianghu, although the Qiuci subject country is no longer there, they still respect the surname of their ancestors."

Gan Ling looked at the servant Gulu who had already begun to cut the venison, and explained with a smile to his husband Mengji.
