Chapter 205, the Xiongnu committed Xiliang
"I'm not one of those who like to kill innocents, and if the secret you tell me is of great value, I might consider sparing your men." Lu Zhan's face did not change in the midst of thousands of troops, and he smiled lightly, "But before that, you still tell them to put down their weapons and take fifty steps back." Otherwise, when there are many people around me, I will be scared and tremble. When the time comes, it will not be good if you accidentally cut your neck and injure you. He looked around, and the blade in his hand was about a centimeter away from Mrs. Guo's neck.
"Listen to me, lay down your weapons, and take fifty steps back, quick!" Mrs. Guo sat on the horse and didn't dare to move, for fear that if her neck moved, she would be hit by the sharp knife that was close to her neck.
Those Bai Bojun who wanted to retreat with Mrs. Guo hesitated at this time, looking at each other, as if they wanted to see what to do from the other party's face.
"Are you still not my loyal soldiers? If so, do as I say...... I'm doing it for your own good. Now the situation is not in our favor, this battle will be lost, you give up resistance, disarm and surrender, there is still a way to live, you know? Seeing that no one responded to his order, Mrs. Guo roared angrily.
"...... Uproar"
Before he could finish his sentence, he didn't know who took the lead in dropping the weapon in his hand. With a precedent, the sound of weapons slamming on the ground sounded one after another. Later, it crackled like firecrackers.
"Good, good. If you do this, I will definitely open the net and let you live. Lu Zhan saw that hundreds of Bai Bo troops around him had dropped their weapons, and a demonic smile appeared on his face. "Now I can tell you." Behind the mountain, more than 100,000 troops were coming. If you really resist. I won't say the consequences, and you know it. β
"Ah......h
As soon as these words came out, the discussion of those soldiers of the Baibo Army with empty hands opened, and the sound was noisy, like ten thousand bees flying together, buzzing. Many people scrambled to retreat, not forgetting to look in the direction of the eastβon the official road between the two mountains, the horse infantry was still pouring out like a river, I don't know how many, and there seemed to be no sign of stopping.
"Who are you? Official Residence...... What is the position? "Mrs. Guo who was held hostage by Lu Zhan. Hearing this, he was immediately stunned: There are still hundreds of thousands of troops behind? He asked.
"It doesn't matter who I am, whether you know it or not. All you need to know is that I can mobilize those hundreds of thousands. Lu Zhan said as he urged Mrs. Guo's mount to walk towards Ma Teng, who was rushing this way.
"Are you a thorn or a county guard? But there aren't so many soldiers? Mrs. Guo still couldn't help but ask, looking at the incredible look on his face, it seemed that he had forgotten that he still had a sharp blade around his neck.
"Neither, you'll find out later." Lu Zhan chuckled, and then became serious, "Say, tell that shocking secret of yours." β
"The Xiongnu are going to attack Xiliang this month...... I wonder if this is a secret? Since Mrs. Guo has decided, she will no longer hide it.
"It's a secret, but it's not shocking, is it?" Lu Zhandao.
"What if the Xiongnu and my Baibo army attacked Liangzhou from the north to the south?"
"Hey. What benefits did the Huns give you, and you want to cooperate with them? β
"Hmph, in the eyes of those in power in the imperial court, I, the White Bo Army, are just the remnants of the Yellow Turban. When you get rid of it, then quickly. In the face of life and death, no one will choose death. So when the Huns found me and asked me to fight against Dong Zhuo and attack the Tiger Pass with them in the Central Plains. Work together to take Liangzhou. I said yes without much thought. Mrs. Guo said with great indignation.
"Then what benefits did the Huns give you?" Lu Zhan listened and asked again.
"After taking Liangzhou. The Xiongnu and I divided Liangzhou equally and governed each other. Non-aggression. β
"Aren't you afraid that after you help the Huns conquer Liangzhou, the Huns will regret it? Even wiped out your White Wave Army and swallowed Liangzhou alone? Lu Zhan sneered.
"We swore an oath, forgive them not." Guo Tai frowned and said, "Anyway, my Baibo Army is regarded as an outlier by the imperial court, and it is an object that must be eliminated." Rather than waiting for the imperial court to send troops to attack us again, it is better to cooperate with the Xiongnu to conquer Liangzhou as their own territory, develop their forces, and slow down major events. β
"It seems that your ambition is not small."
The movement here had already been seen by Ma Teng, who was rushing to this side: the Xiliang army had all dropped their weapons and given up resistance. Lu Xian's nephew has made such a great contribution with the strength of one person, which is really heroic.
After rendezvous with Ma Teng, LΓΌ Zhan took off Guo Tai's weapon, then jumped off his horse, and asked Zhang Ji, who came with Ma Teng, to spread the news of Guo Tai's capture, so that the other stubborn Bai Bo troops stopped fighting.
Zhang Ji responded with a lot of iron horsemen and turned around and hurried towards the place where he was still fighting--seeing that Lu Zhan had captured the leader of the enemy army, he also admired the five-body throwing to the ground.
"Mrs. Guo, do you still want to catch me Ma Tenghu?" Ma Teng drove the horse to Mrs. Guo and said in a fierce voice.
"If there's still a chance, I want to, of course." Mrs. Guo glanced at him and said slowly.
"You and I have no grudges and no hatred, but they ambushed my Xiliang army halfway, what is the reason?" Seeing him answer like this, Ma Teng knew that he was a man, and continued to ask.
"As long as I capture you, I can threaten Han Sui, it's as simple as that."
"Then you and the Xiongnu can take Liangzhou more easily and keep it for yourself, right?" Lu Zhan picked a horse casually, turned over, and came to the two of them, and finally understood why he was besieging Ma Teng here.
"What, you actually colluded with the Huns?" When Ma Teng heard this, the fire in his chest "roared", and he quickly ran up, looked at Mrs. Guo angrily, and said angrily, "I originally respected you as a man, but now I have the heart to kill you." With a "clang", he pulled out the big knife that had been sheathed. The jet-black and shiny blade reflected the white clouds in the sky, and there was a faint cold glow flickering.
Ma Teng does not say that he is in Xiliang, even if he has a certain influence in the entire Liangzhou. The main reason is that he and his eldest brother Han Sui made meritorious contributions to defend against the Xiongnu, so that Xiliang and Liangzhou were not trampled by the Huns. Save hundreds of people from the fate of being enslaved by the Huns. For this reason, many loyal soldiers of Ma Teng died at the hands of the Xiongnu......
Seeing him draw a knife, Guo Tai subconsciously touched his hand to his waist, but it was empty, where was the knife-it had been lifted by Lu Zhan. With a sigh in his heart, he puffed up his chest and said with a righteous and awe-inspiring look: "Ma Teng, do you want to bully me into being defenseless?" β
"Collusion with the Huns, betraying the country, damn it!" Ma Teng popped out a sentence from between his teeth and slowly rode towards the other party. It seems that as soon as he gets close, he will wave the sword in his hand and slash at the other party mercilessly.
Pound, who was following him, looked solemn, knowing that this was a prelude to his lord's murder. The surrounding Xiliang army and many of the Bai Bo army also became nervous - some of the Bai Bo army did not want to see their commander being killed, and almost subconsciously bent down and reached out to pick up the weapon that had just been thrown away from the ground.
At this moment, the atmosphere at the scene was tense and depressing...... (To be continued......)
