Zhang Yang's bloodshot eyes couldn't help but close, but then he shook his head fiercely and shook off the sleepiness in his mind: Ma Jiajun has been attacking for three days in a row, and every time it is continuous, so that the entire Huaixian County cannot rest. Although Zhang Yang had arranged for the regular army and the reserve militia to exchange guards and rest with each other, as the chief general, he did not close his eyes for three consecutive days.

At this time, Zhang Yang's greatest wish was for the reinforcements to arrive as soon as possible and replace him for a good night's sleep. For a few moments, Zhang Yang thought, what's the harm in getting a good night's sleep? When I woke up, even though Huaixian County had changed the banner of the Ma family, so what?

Zhang Yang learned that Ma Jiajun came to expand the territory this time. Along the way, he did not commit any crimes against the people, let alone slaughter the people, but in the middle of the march, he also sent troops to protect the displaced people, and successfully fled to the rule of the Ma family - as long as the Ma family army did not harm the people of Huai County, then what does it really matter if the city is surnamed Yuan and surnamed Ma?

At this moment, such a thought popped into his mind again. But before he could seriously think about it, a long horn sounded, Zhang Yang looked up at the sunrise on the horizon, and couldn't help sighing: Here it is again, every day at sunrise at this time, there will be curling smoke in the camp of the Ma family's army. And after breakfast, tens of thousands of Ma Jiajun will be like sunflowers in the sun, and they will leave the camp on time to stand under Huaixian County.

Looking at Ma Jiajun's arrangement of three meals a day, many soldiers defending the city were envious. For this reason, Zhang Yang also specially changed two meals a day to three meals a day to adapt to Ma Jiajun's rules.

"Hey....... Shaomian is really cranky." Zhang Yang watched the Ma Jiajun under the city calmly arranging the troops, and smiled helplessly. But then, he found that today's formation was a little different from usual.

In the past, Ma Chao would always put the aliens at the front and let them be the main force in the siege. But this time, the phalanx in front was not much thinner than usual, and after them, there were 10,000 Qiang troops. In the end, it turned out to be a huge team of trebuchets and bed crossbows!

The Ma family's siege equipment is the best in the world, and Zhang Yang has already heard of it. Three days before the siege, Zhang Yang thought that when Ma Chao crossed the Yellow River, he would not be able to transport trebuchets and bed crossbows. But now looking at the rows of neat and orderly war weapons under the city, Zhang Yang's heart is cold: yes, Ma Chao's 400,000 army can still cross the Yellow River, how can a hundred sets of equipment not be transported?

It is conceivable that this time Ma Chao is going to have a real general attack, and he will let those alien soldiers storm the city walls and storm the city gates under the cover of trebuchets and bed crossbows. Subsequently, after the gate of Huaixian County was breached, the Qiang cavalry made a big move to attack the outer city, and then, the Ma family army moved on all sides, and the entire Huai County took care of one or the other, and completely fell into the hands of Ma Chao.

It's just that I can't figure it out, why didn't Ma Chao use such a fierce attack method in the first three days? Is it because there is a fear of excessive troop attrition, or is there some other conspiracy?

"General, look!" Zhang Yang's heart had sunk to the bottom at this time. However, at this moment, a guard next to him pointed to the city and said, "Ma Chao is here, it seems that he wants to talk to you!" ”

Zhang Yang looked down, under the canopy of the flag, Ma Chao rode a red horse and slowly walked out surrounded by the generals, and after coming to the city gate thirty paces away, he stopped and said loudly: "General Zhang, would you like to listen to me?!" ”

Zhang Yang stopped the crossbowman who wanted to sneak attack Ma Chao after stopping the battlement, held the female wall, and laughed loudly: "Hussar general, you and I have never met, and now we have our own ambitions, what do you say when you see each other today?" ”

"The general is also a general of the Han Dynasty, and he has been affiliated with the Gong Wei Division for many years, and his loyal heart can show the sun and the moon. Yuan Benchu and my Ma family as an enemy, is the mantis arm as a car, the grasshopper shakes the tree, super long admiration of the general's name, today to see, is to invite the general to join the Ma family, to participate in the great cause! ”

Zhang Yang listened to Ma Chao's bold words, and his face was melancholy and unspeakable. Ma Chao's words were not pretentious, they were completely heartfelt. He doesn't say anything about the Han family, nor does he say anything about justice, in today's troubled times, the bullshit Han family and justice are all bitch's archways. Ma Chao's words are very true, whoever has the biggest fist is the boss, which makes Zhang Yang really admire a hero like Ma Chao.

Therefore, after a moment of silence, Zhang Yang did not reply a word. And Ma Chao also seemed to think of Zhang Yang's concerns, and spoke again: "General Zhang, you also know that the Ma family is trying to expand the territory and benefit the common people this time, and they don't want to kill more. After taking over Huai County, he will definitely not take a stitch from the people and disturb every brick and stone in Lishu. If the general is obsessed, the horsewhip is waved, the jade is burned, and the lives are devastated, how will the general face the people of Huaixian County in the future? ”

Another true love card was played, poking at Zhang Yang's soft underbelly. However, Zhang Yang belongs to the kind of person who is sensible but can't turn a corner, he can see the world clearly, but when the choice comes, he sticks to the old ways. After a few hesitations, Zhang Yang still spoke: "Hussar general, Zhang admires your brightness. It's just that I am deeply favored by Yuan Gong, and I can't repay it. Today, I and the heroes who defended the city are grateful for the kindness of the general, but Zhang can't do it when he defects to the city! I only hope that after the general breaks through the city gate, he will be kind to the people, and the enmity between you and me is not a crime of war, but it can be destroyed by war! ”

"Good!" Ma Chao laughed, and after learning that Zhang Yang would never surrender, he said: "Since this is the case, you and I will fight against each other!" It's just that the general has to think clearly, if I retreat, it will be the beginning of the war! ”

Zhang Yang was speechless, just arched his hand towards Ma Chaoyao.

The corners of Ma Chao's mouth first showed a smile that his plan had succeeded, but after solemnly glancing at Zhang Yang, he also gave up his hand in admiration and left.

On the city wall, a private soldier saw Ma Chao leaving, and hurriedly whispered to the people around him: "Quickly tell the master of the family that the lord has retreated." ”

At the same time, as the general of the reserve army, he also got a message from a soldier, he looked back at the five thousand old troops, and shook the steel knife in his hand: Sima Yi's kid sent this batch of weapons, and it is really a first-class product! Lao Tzu just wanted to see the shocked expression on the enemy's face when he cut off the blade in the enemy's hand!

And at this time, Ma Chao finally returned to the Chinese army. This time, he did not raise his right hand casually as usual, but looked solemn, and slowly raised the coiled dragon and crouching tiger spear in his hand, and only after hearing the breath of the sergeant behind him suck in and inhale with his movements, he swung it down fiercely after the tip of the gun pierced the rising sun!

At the same time, the war drums thundered and the trumpets sounded, filling the ears of the soldiers of the entire battlefield, arousing the beastly nature in their hearts that they longed to release. The mercenaries who had long been ready to attack rushed forward, but the crossbowmen and slingers of the Ma infantry slowly advanced under the cover of the infantry on both wings!

'Peng! With a bang, the first boulder roared and fell on the head of Huaixian County, shattering the chaotic times!

But then, Zhang Yang's face changed, because he suddenly heard a roar that was not from outside the city. Hurriedly walked to the other side of the city wall, but lost his mind and saw that the city was slashed and slashed in the sky, the city was in chaos, the fire rose, some people were shouting, some people were screaming, and the streets were like ant porridge.

On the front, those alien soldiers also attacked under the cover of crossbow arrows and boulders.......

"Ma Chao, Ma Mengqi!" Zhang Yang was furious for a while, and the admiration in his heart just now suddenly dissipated: it turned out that this person was a god in front of a person and a ghost behind him! With such a scheming method, how can you stop it?!

However, what he said just now is false?

Not necessarily.

Zhang Yang suddenly understood that the war was so cruel, one moment he could still pity and persuade each other, and the next moment, he would use all his means to fight and never die!

Why didn't you promise him just now?
