In October of the second year of the first peace, Cao Cao, the servant Lang, the king of Li of the state, and the Liangzhou assassin Shi Ma Teng formed an alliance, and the Wancheng court became each other's horns, and surrounded Chang'an and other places. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Wangbu poured out 50,000 soldiers of Li Jing, the general of Annan, and set up camp in Shouyang Mountain and other places, stretching for several miles. His subordinates Li Tianyan and Shi Kefa sent criminals to build warships such as warships in the confluence of the three rivers, and everyone in Chang'an was in danger for a while.

And on the vast grassland outside Tongguan, there are also sixty or seventy thousand soldiers and horses lined up, recuperating and waiting for the opportunity to attack the city, this is Cao Cao's troops, and the Li Jing army on the north bank is far away.

Guo Yan has been frowning for the past few days, and his henchmen Wu Xi and Jia Xu who were sent to support stability have also lost contact, and now there are very few people available under him, but fortunately, there are dangerous checkpoints in the southwest region, and Wuguan has 30,000 foot soldiers led by Yang Dingtong to hold on, I think there will be no accidents, Tongguan is dangerous, and it is as famous as Tiger Pass, and Fan Chou personally commands 30,000 soldiers to defend the city, and it can also last until next year, and the heavy snow will cover the mountain, and the coalition army will disperse.

Guo Yan's most worrying thing is naturally Li Jing's department on the north bank of the Yellow River, and the soldiers of Bingzhou are famous, although Li Wang has only been promoted to the state pastor for a short time, but most of his soldiers are carefully selected, and their combat effectiveness must be extraordinary.

"Come on, continue to send people to Xiliang to search for the traces of Jia Xu and Wu Xi, and be sure to bring people back." As soon as Guo Yan's words fell, a few soldiers went down to make arrangements.

Guo Yan's fingers kept tapping on the table, if there was someone who knew this person's habits, he would definitely be able to find his current cramped and uneasy.

Guo Yan smiled bitterly and muttered: "This is already the first wave of people, Jia Wenhe, Jia Wenhe, could it be that you really want to leave Han Sui and Ma Teng in Anding before returning?" ”

What is Jia Xu doing at this time, Guo Xu is not in the mood to eat, but Jia Xu is in a good mood at the moment, as Ma Teng gritted his teeth and advanced, he was getting closer and closer to the pit he had dug, and he was naturally in a good mood.

"Jia Wenhe, do you want to attack with fire again?" Wu Xi knew the general outline of the plan, thinking that he was going to kill the enemy with fire again.

Jia Xu shook his head: "Water and fire are ruthless, the fire attack plan designed by Han Sui before was really helpless, and the water attack plan did not work, the Liangzhou region is not as high and low as the merger state, so the water attack plan will not be effective, and it will alarm the cage in vain." ”

Jia Xu actually admired the wisdom of King Li of the state pastor, and the previous plan of flooding Huguan can be described as a model of water attack, but King Li finally chose to notify the enemy army and evacuate the soldiers and civilians, which made Jia Xu scoff, if he was to control the battle, he would inevitably directly order the dam to be blown up.

In Jia Xu's thoughts, this is the most naked enemy, 100,000 ordinary people and 30,000 or 40,000 thieves, how many innocent soldiers will die on the battlefield, if it is not for the opponent is Zhang Niujiao, if he is a person who acts decisively and has the ambition of a hero, he will inevitably fight back.

However, Jia Xu also knows that King Li is a conspiracy, although there are many unstable factors associated with it, but the things in exchange are now obvious to all, that is, the reputation of the people and the edict of the state pastor.

Wu Xi is still puzzled.

Jia Xu glanced at him, and his gloomy eyes flashed with a cold glow: "Li Yu's subordinates have nearly 100,000 followers, if we also pack up Ma Teng, wouldn't it be cheap Li Yu, Wuwei Zhangye and other places are so vast, naturally we can't give in." ”

Wu Xi knew that Jia Xu was reluctant to talk about the plan, and he swallowed the question on his lips.

The next day, Ma Teng's department successfully entered Gaoping County, which was not far from Linjing County, Anding County.

"Father, why did you let us join forces?"

A handsome young general with a lion helmet and beast belt, white robe and silver armor asked.

"Meng Qi, we are already at a point where there is no way to retreat, and there is no way to advance." Ma Teng's helpless explanation can be regarded as an explanation to his subordinates.

"Why is that?" Ma Chao was puzzled, now that he had not yet fought, Ma Teng would have increased the prestige of others first, if he had been someone else, Ma Chao would have stabbed this person a long time ago.

"When I received the news of Han Sui's death that day, I lost my judgment, now although we have enough grain and grass, but the battle line is too long, and we will inevitably not be able to take care of each other if we continue to march towards stability, and the soldiers, horses, grain and grass are separated, how do you say we will fight this war."

At this time, Pound came out and said: "In this way, we should divide our troops and flank each other, and it will be much easier to rescue." ”

Ma Teng shook his head: "If we had withdrawn earlier, we could have returned to Zhangye safely, but not at this time, we ignored a team, that is where Jia Xu is, before we all mistakenly thought that he and Han Sui just met on a narrow road, but from here there are no soldiers stationed in it, it can be seen that this is Jia Xu's plan to invite you into the urn." ”

"Didn't the cable report say that Jia Xu's department was under the command of Wu Xi, just to reinforce stability?"

Ma Teng rubbed his brows: "I thought the same before, but I know Jia Xu a little bit about people, and combined with all the things here, it seems that he has joined forces with Li Yu, ambushed in the dark, and waited for an opportunity." ”

All the generals were silent, Ma Chao was young and very bloody: "Father, I only need 5,000 cavalry to lure, Jia Xu will definitely not let go of this piece of fat, when Pang Lingming kills from the flank, he will definitely be able to slash him." ”

"No, Jia Xu is vicious, and the schemes he has laid are even more ruthless, how can he do something that is big because of a small loss, Meng Qi can't be impulsive."

"Could it be that we just sit back and wait to be the fresh meat on the board?" Ma Chao was indignant, even if he was not afraid to fight against the Qiang wolf horse, but at this moment he was so timid, it was really infuriating.

Ma Teng tapped his fingers: "I have already sent soldiers to ask for help from Bingzhou, and I think that King Li has already sent troops to the court." ”

Pound hesitated when he heard this: "Calculate the time, the soldiers who asked for help have almost made two trips back and forth, why haven't you heard a reply for a long time." ”

Ma Teng's hearing was full of gloom, if King Li didn't come to the rescue, presumably the Ma family would fall in Anding County.

"King Li is a good person, he dares to risk his life, he will not refuse us, and if Li Yu occupies Liangzhou, it will not be a good thing for him, and he will definitely do his best." He was also a little uncertain when he said: "Ma Dai, you ride alone and take a detour, and then go to the hall." ”

"Yes, father, be careful." Ma Dai turned and left, and with his ability, even if he was discovered by enemy scouts, he could escape alive.

"That's it, let's guard Gaoping County, don't advance or retreat, see what he can do with him."

That being said, but everyone knows that if Li Yu pours 100,000 troops to attack, it will last for ten days and half a month at most.

Two days later, at noon, a scout came to report that Li Yu had personally led a large army to come, and had already pulled up a fence 30 miles away and set up camp.

"Report, outside the south city gate, there is a vanguard army of about 10,000 people knocking on the city and calling for battle."

Ma Teng hurriedly summoned the generals to the top of the city, only to see a large flag raised, on which the word Xu was written.

"I don't know if it's Xu Huang or Xu Rong under Li Yu." Ma Teng muttered secretly.

It is said that King Li's wings are also strong, and Li Rong and Guo Yan have not yet fought each other for various reasons, which directly led to Xu Rong serving under Li Rong after Dong Zhuo's death.

And Xu Huang was similar, he should have returned to Cao Cao when Emperor Xian left, but by mistake he also followed Li Yu to Anding County and served under his account.

"Father, I ask to fight, whether he is Xu Rong or Xu Huang, I will take his head to sacrifice the flag." Ma Chao was impatient on the side, this long time could suffocate him, and the battle with the Qiang people was directly covered up, where did these flowers come from, it was really itchy.

"Meng Qi, have you forgotten my words again?" Ma Teng was helpless, he didn't look down on Ma Chao's martial arts, but now that he can avoid the battle, he can't easily go out of the city, otherwise he will lose all the games if he makes a mistake.

Ma Chao glanced at the vanguard army shouting under the city, and called the soldiers to bring his three-stone treasure carved bow.

It didn't take long for two soldiers to come with bows and arrows, which showed the heaviness of the three-stone bow.

Ma Chao tried the weight, held it with one hand, and the soldiers on the side were speechless, Pang De Ma Xiu and others were not surprised, Jin Ma Chao fought with the Qiang people at the age of ten, and there were countless souls under his hands, and the one-armed giant force was even ashamed of Pang De at the peak of his thirties.

Bending the bow and arrows, a series of movements flowed smoothly, the bowstring was full of the moon, aiming at the banner hundreds of steps away, adjusting the angle, forming a straight line with the general, and suddenly let go of his hand, and the eagle feather arrow flew out, cutting through the void with a thud.
