Chapter 176: Bloody Chang'an

Ma Tie stepped forward and saluted: "Father, I heard that Cao Jun crossed the Weishui and attacked him, robbed the grain and grass and cut off the back road, and came to the rescue. ”

Ma Teng's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he exclaimed: "It's not good......"

Before the words fell, I saw that the grain cart on the road suddenly caught fire, and at this time the night wind was tight, and in a blink of an eye, it spread, and the smoke was billowing out.

"Let's go, go back to Chang'an!" Ma Teng roared and commanded the men and horses to go west.

The camp was noisy with men and horses, corpses everywhere, all of them were killed by the Xiliang army, and there were fires burning along the road, and the fireworks were spread with the east wind, and the people and horses collided indiscriminately.

Ma Teng's father and son rushed out of the fire, all dizzy, coughing, I don't know how many people died in the fire, gathered the remnants of the army and rushed to Chang'an.

When they reached the foot of Lishan Mountain, the cavalry in front fell to the ground one after another, with countless casualties, and Cao's army once again set up an ambush.

Ma Tie wanted to cry without tears, his face turned red with anger, and he yelled: "It's fine when you come......"

The ambush soldiers came out from both sides, and the first general held a big axe, stood in front of the road under the moonlight, and shouted: "Xu Huang is here, why don't you quickly dismount and surrender?" ”

"Kill!" Ma Teng's gaze was resolute and he waved forward.

At this time, only by striving forward, can there be a glimmer of life, if Chang'an is not guaranteed, they are in a dilemma, and they will definitely die.

Ma Tie and Ma Xiu protected the wings and fought with the ambush soldiers, and Ma Teng took Xu Huang directly on his horse.

The two horses were staggered, Ma Teng's spear was shaken away by Xu Huang's big axe, and the two fought on the avenue, and the Xiliang cavalry followed closely behind, rushing towards the Cao soldiers who released the arrows.

The two armies fought chaotically, and Ma Teng resigned his will to die at this time, sacrificing his life to entangle Xu Huang, only hoping that the second son could break through.

Xu Huang saw that Ma Teng was desperate, and the Xiliang army had already formed a formation, and he did not fight them to the death, separated the men and horses, retreated all the way into the mountains, and walked all the way to the river bank.

The Xiliang army opened a bloody road, and after Ma Tie led the army, he went straight to Chang'an, and after a night of scuffle, he didn't realize that the east was already bright.

In the distance, Chang'an City was in sight, and sure enough, he saw many horses parked outside the city, green smoke curling, and was about to bury the pot to make rice, Ma Teng couldn't help but say, and led the cavalry to rush forward.

The Xiliang army was in a desperate situation at this time, all of them were fierce tigers in the mountains, and they were overwhelming, and Cao Jun did not expect the enemy army to come so quickly, and they were killed and scattered in a blink of an eye.

Ma Teng rushed straight to the city, shouted to open the door, and watched the drawbridge slowly lower, and the hanging heart was also put down.

Ma Xiu was covered in blood, and then he breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, Chang'an has not been lost." ”

Ma Teng instructed: "Cao Jun will definitely come again, and quickly send someone to ask Han Sui for help." ”

Ma Xiu sent someone to report to Chen Cang, at this time the drawbridge had also been lowered, the city gate was opened, and Ma Teng led the troops into the city immediately, preparing to defend the city.

Chang'an City is divided into three parts, the west is the imperial palace, the east is the military camp arsenal, the outer city is inhabited by the people, and the Xiliang army is rushed in, crowded in the outer city.

There were several rushes last night, and the people were sleepy and tired, and they all insisted on holding on with their last breath, and when they entered the city at this time, they were instantly demoralized and depressed.

The soldiers who entered the city at the end did not notice that the defenders who had closed the city gate had retreated beforehand.

Ma Teng led his troops into the city, but when he saw that the gate of the inner city was closed, he couldn't help but be furious, and shouted: "Which bastard guards the city and still doesn't open the door?" ”

This feeling is like a farmer who has been busy all day outside, only to come home and find that the lights are blind, the ice pot is cold, and the daughter-in-law is sleeping.

"Hahaha, old thief Ma Teng, wait for the time of death!" As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a loud laugh from the city.

Everyone turned their heads to look, only to see a young scribe standing with his hands in his hands above the city, his moon-white robe fluttering with the morning breeze, and the morning glow reflected his figure, which was even more noble and arrogant.

Squeak Chirp –

The ambush soldiers on the surrounding city walls were exhausted, and Cao Jun bent his bow and arrows, making a scalp-tingling sound, and tens of thousands of arrows were shining coldly.

Ma Teng was shocked, and said in a trembling voice: "You...... Who are you? ”

"I am Hanoi Sima Yiye!" The man smiled coldly and said in a deep voice: "You wait for Xiliang Wufu, you are reckless and strong, since Dong Zhuo has been violent and rebellious, and you are innocent of death, let go of arrows!" ”

"Waitβ€”" Ma Teng was startled and hurriedly raised his hand and shouted.

But seeing that Sima Yi did not hesitate, with a wave of his big hand, the war drum shattered the calm of the morning, and ten thousand arrows poured down like a storm.

On the streets of the outer city, the screams soared into the sky, and the people and horses fell to the ground one after another, struggling and writhing, and in the blink of an eye, corpses were strewn all over the ground, and rivers of blood flowed.

Sima Yi put his hands behind his back, his expression was indifferent, looking at this scene lightly, indifferent to those struggling figures, and there was a trace of excitement hidden in the depths of his eyes.

The rain of arrows continued for a quarter of an hour, and all the bows and arrows prepared by the soldiers were gone, and there was not a single living person in the streets, and the screams disappeared.

As a few sparse arrows fell, Sima Yi raised his hand to signal to stop, and there was silence up and down the east gate, only the sound of the morning breeze blowing the flag.

The Xiliang Army, whether it is a soldier or a war horse, is all full of arrows, and as far as the eye can see, the entire street is densely packed with arrow feathers, like reeds growing by the river.

But in the reeds, there is scarlet blood flowing, along the ditches on both sides, surging out of the city, and the moat of Chang'an has been dyed into a river of blood, which is shocking.

A group of men and horses from the east then arrived, it was Xu Huang, Sima Yi glanced back, and ordered the stunned soldiers: "Within two days, clean up this place." ”

Xu Huang entered from the south gate and was shocked to hear that more than 30,000 Xiliang troops, along with Ma Teng's father and son, were all shot by random arrows at the east gate.

"Is it too much for the military advisor to kill so much?"

Sima Yi said coldly: "If it weren't for the chaos of the Xiliang army, how could there be the wandering of the Son of Heaven, the burning of Luoyang, and the chaos of the world?" ”

Xu Huang said: "That is Dong Zhuo's brutality, conniving at his subordinates, and it has nothing to do with Ma Teng. ”

Sima Yi's eyes were slightly cold: "Eliminate the evil, the general doesn't see the chaos of Li Dao and Guo Yan?" In the Xiliang army, there are still a lot of remnants, and now Ma Teng is opposed, causing the rebellion in Guanzhong, if it is not punished, killing chickens and monkeys, and the disasters are endless! ”

Xu Huang was stunned, his heart was shocked inexplicably, although what Sima Yi said made sense, but in the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of people were killed, it seemed so indifferent, where is this like a Confucian who has never led a soldier?

Sima Yi looked at the rising sun, arched his hand to the east, and said angrily: "I hurt the killer this time, and this is also to avenge those dead Han family loyalists and thousands of innocent people!" ”

Xu Huang was silent and shook his head fiercely, anyway, the person is dead, and the right and wrong of this matter is up to the prime minister.

can win Chang'an, all thanks to Sima Yi's work, this person is young, so decisive in killing, the prime minister really knows people, if he is asked to deal with Liu Qi, then he will relieve his hatred.

Sima Yi said: "Now that Chang'an has been recovered, the defenders of Tongguan are defeated without a fight, so they can order Han Hao and Liu Zhu to take Tongguan and take General Cao to the city to celebrate." ”

Xu Huang nodded, but said worriedly: "Ma Teng's father and son were executed, Han Sui and Ma Chao will definitely raise troops to take revenge, so take precautions as soon as possible." ”

Sima Yi smiled lightly: "I am about to pour out the Xiliang army and wipe it out, and never suffer in the future." ”
