Chapter 284: Hu Lai's master
As the general trend of the Xiliang army has gone, most of the remaining remnants of its army in the city have been intercepted and captured by the people and righteous soldiers who counterattacked, and nearly 2,000 people have been captured.
It was early in the morning, the sky was clear, and the sun seemed to be especially bright today. Outside the north gate, Gao Guan, who was impatient and a little crazy, hurried in, looked around, didn't see the person he was looking for, and went to see Chen Shi not far away to appease the people, but his eyes were furious, and he was anxious to get off the horse, and rushed to Chen Shi angrily.
As Master Ma expected, fortunately, General Gao was clever and knew how to take advantage of the situation to cooperate, and finally completed this great feat. Master Ma once said that in the troubled times, generals only know how to use military force, but how many people know the art of war? But General Gao is one of them! When Chen Shi saw Gao Ran coming, he first exclaimed in amazement, and suddenly found that his face was full of anger, only to know that it was not good to scream, but before he could react, Gao Ran had already taken a big stride, grabbed Chen Shi, glared and gritted his teeth, and said angrily: "Where is my crazy lord!? You damn little cub, you really dare to accompany him to go crazy and use 300 cavalry to surprise attack this heavily guarded Anyi City!? ”
As soon as Gao Ran said this, the people who had not yet left all shouted in surprise when they heard it. Although many of them also heard the rumors last night, they all thought it was an exaggeration, but now there are only 300 people, and they feel incredible, and they talk about it all night!
"Master Ma decided to send troops at that time, and said that there is only this opportunity tonight, time waits for no one, and if you miss the opportunity, your achievements will be wasted! How could he have the face to face those sacrificed brothers! Chen Shi is usually decent, but he is also a fierce temper, grabbed Gao Yan's arm and shouted.
As soon as the words fell, both the soldiers and the people of Anyi City around them were in awe. Gao Ran was furious and shouted: "I'm so angry!" I'm going to punch that kid!! ”
While Gao Ran shouted these words, his heart was extremely complicated, thinking that when he was forced to join Ma Zongheng's command, he didn't look down on this milky boy at all, thinking about pretending to surrender first, and then looking for a chance to leave. But later, as the big and small battles continued to Cairo, inadvertently, Ma Zongheng had already stood on his feet. Then, I don't know if it was curiosity, he gave up one opportunity after another to escape, as if he was willing to be driven by it.
Later, he asked himself that the reason why he was like this was because Ma Zongheng had never doubted him. And I don't know when, when he didn't even notice it, Ma Zongheng had regarded him as his sibling, and the tasks assigned to him became more and more heavy.
Gao Ran asked himself if he was not an emotional person, he was born poor, so he was eager to get ahead as soon as possible, enjoy wealth and enjoy superiority since he was a child. It is precisely because of this that he chose Yuan Shao, who was extremely honorable, because he knew that under Yuan Shao's command, he could achieve fame faster.
But when he found that under Ma Zongheng's command, he could get a completely different and wonderful feeling under Yuan Shao's command, and suddenly he understood the true meaning of the sentence that a soldier dies for his confidant.
If you want to talk about this feeling, Gao Ran doesn't know where to start, but in the past, when he was under Yuan Shao, he was always depressed and submissive, Yuan Shao always seemed to be so noble, in front of him, he only obeyed, and constantly obeyed. But under Ma Zongheng's command, he felt more freedom and excitement, and whenever he watched Ma Zongheng's power become more and more huge, he would involuntarily feel happy and happy from the bottom of his heart. Because he can always feel that he is fighting side by side with Ma Zongheng, compared to the master, Ma Zongheng is more like a partner who leads the battle and leads everyone to make contributions!
However, it was said that at this time, on the outer garden pavilion of the Anyi Palace, after Wei Zhongdao listened to Ma Zongheng's understatement, his mood could no longer be described as shocking, more appropriately, he only felt his heart beating and his body was weak.
"General Ma, there are really less than 2,000 reinforcements outside the city?" Wei Zhongdao asked again in disbelief.
"I will never hide my allies, because this is the way to go." Ma Zongheng smiled brightly and replied lightly.
"But if the thief doesn't fall for this false plan, then won't we all be like the people in the urn!?" Wei Zhongdao's eyes couldn't help narrowing, and there was a bit of anger in his eyes, and he asked with a bit of a drunken taste.
"No, I didn't expect that Wei Gongzi would attack so early, and I didn't expect that there was a secret passage in the Wei Mansion leading to the county government. According to Shicai's situation, from the moment when the Wei and Cai families captured the people and righteous soldiers in the county capital, the thieves had lost their will to fight and were doomed to defeat! Even if there are masters who can see through this false plan, they are powerless to return to the sky! These are all the credits of Wei Gongzi! Ma Zongheng said slowly, unhurriedly.
"You! This!! When Wei Zhongdao heard this, he was afraid for a while, and then looked at Ma Zongheng's understatement, but he couldn't help but be angry.
"The so-called way of war, treacherous, is because of the rapid changes on the battlefield. But the reason why I dared to take risks and attack Anyi with 300 horsemen was because there were still loyal and righteous men from the Ruwei and Cai families in the world. Ma Zongheng turned around, his eyes lit up, and he looked at Wei Zhongdao with a smile. When Wei Zhongdao heard this, his face changed continuously, and he suddenly had an indescribable strange feeling in his heart, so he sank and asked again: "You and I have never met, if I, Wei Zhongdao, am a traitor who is greedy for fame and fortune, you are not afraid of death!?" ”
"Hahaha~~!! Human death is lighter than a feather and heavier than Mount Tai!! Die in the service of justice, what a pity to die!? Besides, everyone in the world thinks that I am the best at fighting on the battlefield, but I don't know that I am not only a martial artist but also an outlaw gambler! Luckily, I got it right every time! Ma Zongheng laughed when he heard this, and Wei Zhongdao shook his head and sighed when he heard it, only to feel that he couldn't talk to him at all, and what he was thinking was very understandable.
Hearing Ma Zongheng's laughter, Wei Zhongdao was shocked, and arched his hand: "In any case, General Ma's righteous wind of treating death as if he were at home is indeed commendable courage, and Zhongdao admires it in his heart." If there is any need for the Wei family, although General Ma commanded, the hearts of the people in the city are undecided, and the Wei family also has a little popularity in this Anyi, and is willing to give his strength. ”
"Good!" Ma Zongheng replied with a slight chin in his head. Before leaving, Wei Zhongdao seemed to remember something again, and suddenly asked: "The army in the city is empty, Niu Fu still has 8,000 elite soldiers outside, and those remnants of the fleeing soldiers will definitely report to them, but what if Niu Fu packs up the remnants of the army and comes to attack it?" ”
"Then he is self-defeating! Can't ask for it! When Ma Zongheng heard this, he immediately grinned and smiled. When Wei Zhongdao saw it, his heart was a little weak at first, but for some reason, he was a little looking forward to it, so he replied: "It seems that General Ma has already had a way to deal with it, so Zhongdao doesn't have to worry too much and retreat." ”
Wei Zhongdao bowed his hand again, turned around and was about to take a few steps, when he suddenly saw an angry and vicious man rushing upstairs.
Wei Zhongdao was immediately startled, there were obviously guards downstairs, but he didn't hear the sound of fighting just now.
"Is this man here to kill me!?" This thought couldn't help but flash through Wei Zhongdao's mind, and it was no wonder that Wei Zhongdao thought like this, after all, the Wei family's prestige in Anyi was immeasurable. After last night's charity act, the Wei family has added prestige. In addition, Ma Zongheng's troops are not much, if the Wei family wants to forcibly occupy Anyi, Ma Zongheng may not be able to return to the sky.
"You crazy person, you really don't want to be killed~!! If there are three long and two short, who will Lao Tzu go with!? ”
Suddenly, a roar like thunder exploded, Wei Zhongdao subconsciously hurriedly avoided the side, but saw that the fierce man seemed to not see him, and hurriedly looked at the horse and rushed behind him.
Seeing that the fierce man was about to pounce, Ma Zongheng didn't even turn back. The fierce man shouted, and he raised his fist and was about to hit the horse in the back.
It's just that just a millimeter away from Ma Zongheng's back, his fist suddenly stopped. At this time, he heard Ma Zongheng laugh in a low voice: "Isn't this a win?" We have little capital, and if we don't fight, we are afraid that we will lose all our money. ”
"Ahhhh When the fierce man heard this, he suddenly let out a strange scream, and then something even more weird happened, he actually slammed his fist into his face, and with a 'bang', Wei Zhongdao couldn't help but be frightened, seeing that the fierce man suddenly beat himself to a mouth full of blood, how could he have thought that he had just met a madman, and there was an even more incredible madman!
When he was young, Wei Zhongdao walked out of the gate of the county government with an extremely strange face, and dozens of old and young clansmen of the Wei family outside were busy greeting him.
"Young master, your face is so ugly, could it be that the man surnamed Ma is making things difficult for you!?"
"Young master, I just heard that there are less than 2,000 soldiers and horses entering the city, what the hell is going on!?"
"Young Master...!!"
"Enough, shut up!! Anyway, General Qiē Ma has expected it, although my Wei family can do their part!! Suddenly, Wei Zhongdao, who seemed to be in a state of collapse, suddenly had a seizure, his face was flushed, his eyes were round and wide, where was his usual gentleness and elegance.
The people of the Wei family couldn't help but be startled when they saw this, Wei Zhongdao pushed away the people who were blocking the way, and muttered: "Crazy, all crazy!" ”
The world's good strategists, but the war situation set up is linked one by one, interlocking, putting the enemy to death.
However, he said that Niu Fu, fifty or sixty miles northwest of Anyi, waited until noon, but did not see reinforcements coming, but heard that Pang De had withdrawn his troops last night and seemed to be heading towards Feng Yi. Dong Yu and other generals were all impatient, and came to ask for troops to pursue them several times, but they were all rejected by Niu Fu.
Seeing that it was almost dusk, what Niu Fu was waiting for was not reinforcements, but the remnants of a group of defeated soldiers.
"What!! Anyi was attacked by the Ma family, the Wei and Cai families rebelled, Guo Fan was killed in battle, and Anyi City was captured!!? When you still have the face to see me, you don't want to cut yourself off and give your head to you!? Ushisuke, who blushed, shouted as he screamed as he burst out of the corners of his eyes.
"Governor Dadu, I waited for the Ma family's treacherous tricks, and it is not a pity to die, but I heard that the Ma family's children have less than 2,000 reinforcements, plus the Wei and Cai families, at most there are only a few thousand troops available. At this time, not long after the thieves seized Anyi, the Wei and Cai families probably didn't expect that the Ma family only had this mere number of troops, and they were afraid that they would regret it now! ”
"That's right!! Now if the Metropolitan Governor cleans up the remnants, he can at least gather tens of thousands of troops and return to retake Anyi, which is by no means impossible!! ”
"Please also ask the Metropolitan Governor to let me and others survive my life, and the small one is willing to lead the department to pioneer it, and work hard with the Ma family!!"
But when he saw those Xiliang generals, their faces were full of resentment, and they gritted their teeth and begged. When Niu Fu heard this, he took a deep breath, and his whole face tightened, hideous and terrifying.
"The Governor of the Dadu, that Ma family child is incomparably brave, and now he has Anyi and Gucheng, the matter has come to this, I think it is better to save Feng Yi first, otherwise if it affects the major event of moving the capital to Chang'an, I am afraid that the Taishi will be even more severe!" When Dong Yu heard this, he quickly persuaded. Those defeated generals didn't know about Feng Yi, and when they heard it, they all changed color.
Niu Fu is now a big two, whether to save Feng Yi or attack Anyi, it is really difficult to make up an idea for a while. And there is an indescribable sense of apprehension in his heart, he feels as if he has fallen into an unfathomable trap, whether he can get out of the game next, or fall deeper and deeper, depends on how he decides now!
