Chapter 64: Breaking the Siege (I)

After receiving information from Chang'an City, Ma Chao believed the surrender of the Yin and Zhao families. In order to prevent rumors from leaking, it was not until the day agreed by Ma Chao and the Yin and Zhao families that Ma Chao summoned Liang Xing, Ma Play and other Xiliang people in his camp to discuss and arrange matters related to the attack on Chang'an at night. After everyone figured out what was going on, some people looked solemn and worried; Some people are happy and eager to try; Others were surprised and thoughtful.

Ma Chao sat upright on the throne of the big tent, and after everyone calmed down, he gave orders to everyone in a very stylish manner, like the leader of the alliance. Ma Chao asked everyone to go back and arrange soldiers and horses to prepare for tonight's operation. As for who is the pioneer, Ma Chao did not mention it, everyone knows very well that this kind of beauty difference will definitely be done by Ma Chao himself, and no one will touch this mold. At the same time, the meeting hall of the Chang'an Governance Office was also very lively. Zhong Xuan and Xiahou Yuan also urgently arranged the defense of the city, a large number of materials for defending the city were quietly transported to the city wall, and the domestic slaves recruited from various families at dusk were also deployed.

In the autumn night, there is a little coolness. The war was about to break out, and the entire Chang'an City was shrouded in black clouds, but it was surprisingly quiet. There was no sound but the rustling of flags flying in the wind.

Ma Chao led the soldiers and horses to the west of Chang'an as agreed. With people and horses, tens of thousands of Xiliang troops quietly gathered outside the west of Chang'an. Ma Dai rode his horse to Ma Chao's side and whispered, "Big brother, are we too hasty, less than 100 people stay in the camp, I'm afraid something is wrong." ”

"Cao Jun is only afraid that he will not be able to protect himself tonight, so how can he be unfavorable to me." Ma Chao lifted the spear and gently wiped the head of the spear that was steaming with cold light.

"I don't want to guard against Cao Jun, but some people have to guard against it." Ma Dai was very worried and persuaded Ma Chao.

Ma Chao squinted his eyes, looked at the towering city wall in the distance, and said confidently, "No, tonight's winner is my Xiliang Ma Chao, they won't have a chance." ”

Due to the lack of troops in Chang'an City, Xiahou Yuan brought all cavalry, and only a small number of Cao troops were deployed in the west, and the rest were all domestic slaves of various families. The house slaves gathered together to keep each other warm, and all kinds of weapons were scattered on the ground. When the western guard saw such a scene, his face was full of contempt, and his waist was straight, which was in stark contrast to the house slaves.

"I wonder what General Ma's plan is?" Cheng Yi sat on his war horse and asked in a low voice. This action was initiated by Ma Chao, although the generals of Xiliang did not accept Ma Chao, but at this time they had to respect Ma Chao.

Facing the eyes of everyone, Ma Chao felt fluttering, obviously claiming to be the leader of the Xiliang Alliance, "The three generals Liang Xing, Ma Wan and Cheng Yin led the men and horses of each department to be the vanguard, and the three generals attacked from the west. The three generals, Li Kan, Yang Qiu, and Cheng Yi, surrounded the remaining three sides to prevent Cao's army from attacking our rear camp, and the rest of the troops entered from the west with the general. As soon as Ma Chao said this, everyone was shocked. General Shenweitian, who has always rushed to the front, will give up the merit of breaking Chang'an to others. After hearing this, Liang, Ma, and Cheng were secretly taken aback, but the performance of the three was different. Liang Xing's face was full of anger and dissatisfaction, Ma Yu was a little weak-hearted, and Cheng Yin was very calm.

"Why should we be pioneers?" Liang Xing's voice raised a lot, and his tone was full of dissatisfaction.

The corners of Ma Chao's mouth lifted lightly, revealing a sneer, "Recently, it has been rumored in the army that the three generals have secretly taken refuge in Cao Cao, and the three generals refuse to go, is it really like the rumors, the three generals have surrendered to Cao?" ”

"Ma Chao, you spew blood!" The green tendons on Liang Xing's neck burst out, the atmosphere at the scene was very tense, and the air was full of the smell of gunpowder.

Cheng Yin glanced at everyone present, and everyone had an expression of disinterest. Then he looked at Ma Chao's eyes, "We and Cao Cao are incompatible, how can we surrender to Cao Thief, General Liang is also in a hurry." I also hope that General Ma will focus on the overall situation, and we will receive the order. By the moonlight, Liang Xing and Ma Play saw Cheng Yin's hand move slightly, and the two of them were also very reluctant to accept Ma Chao's order. Knowing that there is a fire pit in front of you, but having to jump, this is the most disgusting.

"It's going to be ugly soon, so let's go to the city wall." Zhong Xuan's face was expressionless, and he stroked his beard lightly, "You must remember to act according to the plan, and you will naturally be indispensable after the matter is completed." ”

"No!" Yin Ke and Zhao Kuan bowed and exited the chamber.

Seeing the two of them go away, Cao Shuang walked out from behind the screen, looked at the backs of the two of them in the distance, and smiled.

"The old man still thinks that they are unreliable, and a group of wine bags and rice bags may not be able to stop the attack of the Xiliang soldiers." Xiahou Yuan, who is not far from Cao Shuang, is very old-fashioned and analyzed, in fact, Xiahou Yuan's worries are not unreasonable, if Yin Ke and Zhao Kuan can't resist the attack of the Xiliang soldiers, and the deception becomes a real surrender, the scene will be uncontrollable at all, in the final analysis, there are still too few troops, and Luoyang's reinforcements are still on the way.

How could Cao Shuang not know about these circumstances, at this time he was more worried than anyone else. But he couldn't show it, and said very calmly, "That's right, so Uncle Ancestor will see you tonight." The safety of Chang'an and our lives are all entrusted to our ancestors. ”

The three of them were speechless, the atmosphere was solemn, Xiahou Yuan didn't say a word, picked up the spear and went out of the city alone.

"If things change, act on the opportunity!" Yin Ke walked in front of Zhao Kuan and whispered.

Zhao Kuan didn't answer, he stopped moving, and looked at Yin Ke's eyes very complicated, as if he was thinking about something.

"Ziyu, what are you thinking?" Yin Ke turned his head and looked at Zhao Kuan, who stopped in place, very puzzled.

"It's just a little worried." Zhao Kuan relieved himself and explained, hurriedly catching up with Yin Ke's pace. The house slaves of their Yin and Zhao families were barely used to see the family nursing home, and they fought against the brave and fierce Xiliang army, hitting stones with eggs, and the ending was clear.

"So, when the time comes, we will act at the opportunity to counterattack Chang'an to help Ma Chao, so as to save our net worth." Yin Ke whispered, cautiously watching the situation around him. Zhao Kuan nodded and went to Xicheng together.

Cao Bing who passed by on the street had a solemn look on his face, and the moonlight sprinkled on the cold ground was very solemn. A woman gently covered her sleeping son and kicked off the quilt, and looked at her husband not far away, her face full of worry. The husband comforted his wife softly, the worry and helplessness on his face pale in his comfort. Outside the city, tens of thousands of Xiliang troops besieged Chang'an City for many days, and Chang'an was in danger. The day of the breakdown is the time of the death of these people. Whether it's to vent anger or reward, slaughtering a city is the best way to replenish the pockets of the soldiers and restore the morale of the army. The white bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles. In this era of human life, the fate of the people is miserable, and they are not in control of their own destiny.
