Zhuge Liang subdued Jiang Wei, Ji County surrendered, the army entered Ji County, and Zhuge Liang dispatched troops and horses to pacify Tianshui counties.

But said that Ma Chao led 10,000 troops to seize Nan'an County and Longxi County.

Originally, Ma Chao was responsible for guarding Wudu, Yangping Pass, and there were 30,000 cavalry under his command, but this time Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, 50,000 soldiers and horses out of Qishan, of which 30,000 were cavalry under Ma Chao.

There were 10,000 foot soldiers left behind in Qishan Fort, and in order to fight a quick battle and settle Longyou, Ma Chao, and Zhang Fei as soon as possible, the two people led by Ma Chao and Zhang Fei were all cavalry.

As for Zhuge Liang's remaining 20,000 soldiers and horses, they were 10,000 cavalry and 10,000 foot soldiers.

Tianshui is very close to Nan'an, Ma Chao led his troops day and night, but in two days, he arrived at Nan'an County Governance City.

Nan'an County's name is Yang Ling, but Nan'an is strong and incompetent.

When Ma Chao led his troops to the city, Yang Ling was still drinking and having fun in the palace.

"Taishou, it's a big deal!" An official rushed into Yang Ling's room in a panic.

"What's wrong! Isn't that okay with me? Yang Ling drank a glass of wine and looked at the official with a displeased expression.

The official pointed in the direction outside the city, and said with a panicked face: "Ma Chao is here, Taishou, Ma Chao is here!" ”

Yang Ling looked puzzled and said, "Ma Chao, which Ma Chao?" Scare you like this! ”

"The hussar general of Shu State, Ma Chao, Ma Mengqi!"

"Bang dang!"

Listening to the official's words, the wine glass in Yang Ling's hand fell to the ground involuntarily: "What did you say?" Ma Chaoyuan is in Wudu, how could he come to Nan'an? ”

The official said: "It's really here, and Pang De, Ma Dai, they also brought 10,000 cavalry, just outside the city to call for formation, and name you to go out to meet the battle!" ”

"Oh my god!" Taishou Yang Ling was suddenly so frightened that he sat on the ground.

Against? Take your life to fight!

Ma Chao was one of the most powerful warlords in Liangzhou back then, and his bravery was invincible, and Pang De became famous even earlier than Ma Chao, Ma Teng gradually became stronger with Pang De's bravery, and now the two of them are coming together, who can stop him?

Yang Ling hurriedly said, "Quickly prepare a roster of soldiers for me!" ”

The official hesitated: "There are still 3,000 soldiers and horses in the city, and Ma Chao's command is all cavalry, and he is not good at attacking the city, so don't we resist?" ”

Yang Ling glared at the officials and shouted, "Resist? Do you have to resist with your life? Why don't you go and prepare a roster of soldiers? ”

"No!"

After a while, Yang Ling prepared the roster of soldiers, came to the city, and shouted to Ma Chao under the city: "General Ma, I am willing to open the city and surrender, please spare my life!" ”

Ma Chao shouted: "Kaecheng surrenders, you can avoid death!" ”

Yang Ling breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers: "Open the city quickly, open the city quickly!" ”

Looking at the slowly opening city gate, Ma Dai said with a smile: "Although my brother has been away from Yongliang for ten years, his prestige has not diminished back then!" It seems that we will definitely take the second county one step ahead of General Zhang. ”

Ma Chao sneered: "Yang Ling is a native of Yongliang, and he knows my means, so he doesn't dare to resist." And Longxi Taishou Chu You, an official sent by the Wei court, heard that his ability is good.

Moreover, Longxi is adjacent to Liangzhou Jincheng, and Xiahou said that he and Liangzhou Thorn Shi Xu Miao are both in Jincheng and can help, I think this Chu You is not so easy to surrender. ”

Ma Dai nodded and said, "Hmm! However, when our troops came to the city, there was naturally a way to deal with them, and the big Sima gave us the blueprints for returning the artillery, and Longxi was not equipped with this thing. ”

Nan'an County Shou Yang Ling was afraid of Ma Chao, surrendered directly, Ma Chao settled in Dao City, rested for two days, left Ma Dai to lead a thousand troops to stay in Nan'an, and continued to set off to capture Longxi.

The Longxi Governance Office is located in Xiangwu, only a hundred miles away from the Dao, and the day after Ma Chao took Nan'an, Xiangwu received the news.

Ma Chao attacked, and the city was in an uproar.

The name of the person, the shadow of the tree, Ma Chao's fame is too great, especially in Liangzhou, there is no one who is not afraid of him. And Ma Chao's methods were ruthless, offending him that he had no good fruit to eat, and when he heard the news, many people thought of surrendering.

However, Longxi is too guarded by Chu You, an official sent by the Wei court, not a native of Longxi, his ability is good, and he has never seen Ma Chao, and he is not afraid of Ma Chao.

He gathered the city's Chinese warriors to boost morale.

Chu You said to a group of civil and military officials: "We are valued by the imperial court, guarding the borderlands, and now that the enemy is coming, we should stick to the city and live up to the trust of the imperial court." Eat Junlu, when the monarch is worried, if the enemy comes, he will surrender, and the villain who is greedy for life and afraid of death will not be reused by Shu.

Although Ma Chao is brave, although there are many soldiers and horses, they are all cavalry, not good at attacking the city, there are 3,000 soldiers and horses in my city, and there are 5,000 young and strong people who are gathered, and it is more than enough to defend the city.

And Jincheng is only two hundred miles away, you can send people to report to Liangzhou Xu Taishou and General Xiahou to know, let them send troops to help as soon as possible, and when the reinforcements arrive, Ma Chao will be defeated! ”

After Chu You's words, many people turned a little lighter, and no one was willing to surrender, mainly because they were afraid. Chu You analyzed the situation for them, and if he was able to eliminate his fear, then many people would naturally be relieved of their intention to surrender.

However, there are still some people who are too afraid of Ma Chao, and their fearful looks have not yet recovered.

Chu You said again: "Zhuge Liang has only fifty or sixty thousand soldiers and horses at most, and Guanzhong will soon send reinforcements, and we also have the support of Liangzhou, so don't be afraid."

Now that all parts of the country have surrendered, let's stick to Longxi, and we will definitely get a special reward from the imperial court at that time, if it surrenders, once Zhuge Liang is defeated, you will end up with a wife and a broken wife.

I know that you are afraid of Ma Chao, Ben Jiang is not an unreasonable person, and he will defend it first, if he really can't hold it, Ben Jiang will definitely surrender, how about saving your life? ”

"Thank you Taishou!"

"It's still too reasonable."

Chu You coerced and enticed, and everyone was finally persuaded by Chu You.

And Chu You also had a good idea, he deliberately said that if he couldn't hold it, he would surrender, so as to stabilize people's hearts. But Jincheng's soldiers and horses are not far, they can be reached in ten days at most, he only needs to hold on for ten days, and ten days is not very difficult to defend.

Chu You looked at His Royal Highness, a man in his thirties who was nine feet tall and had a tiger's back, and said, "Captain Beigong, you will be fully responsible for guarding the city!" ”

"No!" The big man gave up his hand, but Chu You didn't notice a fierce light flashing in the eyes of the big man.

Two days later, Ma Chao led his troops to the city of Xiangwu.

Ma Chao urged the horse out, came to the city, looked at the city and shouted: "Where is the city guarded!" ”

Chu You came to the head of the city, looked at Ma Chao under the city and shouted: "Ma Mengqi, this is too much to stay here, what are you doing!" ”

Ma Chao raised his eyebrows, and sure enough, he was right, Chu You had such an attitude, he would definitely not surrender!

Ma Chao shouted: "Chu You, since you know my name, why don't you quickly open the city and surrender!" ”
