Chapter 983: Ma Teng's old face turned red

With joy, the group quickly returned to the gate of the Qinhou Mansion, and the group got off their horses and stood outside the door.

Update "What's the messenger?" Ma Teng asked the guard in front of the mansion.

"Lord Qi, that person is in the hall." The guard replied.

"Hmm." Ma Teng nodded, and then led the people inside, and soon after, came to the hall.

In the hall, a man dressed as an ordinary soldier was kneeling, his face was very ugly. But. Ma Teng didn't notice it, and after entering the hall, he asked directly, "What's the news in the northwest?" But the Qiang people defeated Zhao Qiyun? ”

Until then, Ma Teng was still convinced of this.

Just because Ma Teng can't see it doesn't mean that others can't see it. At least Zhong Ra saw that this spy's expression was wrong, not only did he not have the joy and sorrow of his own victory, but his face was ugly and he died. It's like a daddy.

Zhong's heart sank, could it be that he had come out of something? But on second thought, it's unlikely. The 200,000 cavalry of the Qiang nationality can almost run rampant in Yongliang, even if it is Ma Teng, Han Sui in his heyday, he does not dare to guarantee that he will be able to defeat the Qiang people.

There will be no problems at all with such a big thing.

Zhong Gao comforted himself in his heart, the reason why he was comforting himself was because he was afraid. I am afraid that if something goes wrong with the Qiang cavalry, the Wei, Liang, and Qin kingdoms in the northwest will become much weaker.

Although there is a strong fortress of tigers and leopards, it is also comparable to the more than 200,000 troops of Chu State, and the biggest possibility is confrontation.

If it can't quickly defeat the Chu State, then the situation in the Central Plains will be greatly unfavorable to the Wei State: the three-way army, Xu Shu, Huang Zhong, and Lu Xun will attack Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Youzhou in an all-round way, how tragic it is:

Therefore, the Qiang people must not fail.

That's why Zhong Zhen comforted himself, because he realized that if the guess was successful. Then the Wei State is really life and death.

is like what Cao Hong said, life and death.

Except for Zhong Zhen, none of the other generals noticed this abnormality. Including Ma Chao. Pang De, Cao Hong, Yan Xing and others couldn't wait to look at this spy, expecting him to say it sooner.

"Lord Qisang, the Qiang army fought with Zhao Qiyun in Wuwei, with tens of thousands of casualties."

Facing the expectant gaze of Ma Teng and his party, the spy felt inexplicable and also felt a lot of pressure, and after hesitating for a while, he said.

"What?"

Ma Teng could barely believe his ears, Qiang? Are they crazy? 200,000 cavalry to attack the city of Wuwei? Cavalry to siege the city?

No matter how capable the cavalry of the Qiang cavalry is, it can only shoot against the archers on the city wall and remain undefeated. Besiege?

How could the cavalry break into the city?

Did it make the cavalry dismount, step on the ladder, and climb the city wall? Are you kidding.

Two hundred thousand cavalry lost tens of thousands. Ma Teng had to believe that the Qiang people really dismounted and attacked the city as cavalry.

A group of miscellaneous people, who also claim to be a strong clan in the northwest. Twenty iron horsemen went south to attack the city, which is that ability.

Dog's Day.

Immediately afterwards, Ma Teng's heart showed great resentment towards the Qiang people. That's because of hope, but it turned into disappointment, and it was a disappointment.

Just now, he and Cao Hong greeted the tiger and leopard cavalry outside the city, 50,000 tiger and leopard cavalry, and the most elite cavalry in the world all gathered in the northwest, it was the time for the husband to be brave.

Coupled with 200,000 Qiang cavalry, nearly 400,000 horse infantry and Chu troops will hunt in Qin. defeated the barbarian Chu State, which was famous through the ages, and then took advantage of the situation to establish a situation where the four kingdoms stood side by side.

Just now, they were discussing this. But at this moment, the Qiang people did such a stupid thing, how could this not make Ma Teng resentful? How to keep Ma Teng from looking down on the Qiang people?

Ma Teng's face turned red, and he didn't know whether he was angry or ashamed. Not only Ma Teng, but also Ma Chao, Cao Hong, Pang De, and Yan Xing.

They also agree with Ma Teng and Cao Hong's views. It is believed that the Qiang must have defeated Zhao Qiyun's cavalry, so that they could defeat the Chu State more smoothly.

But the problem now is that it's all wrong, it's all self-inflicted. The Qiang people were not as strong as they imagined, they attacked the city, and failed magnificently.

Zhao Qiyun's cavalry did not seem to be as weak as expected, they held the city and defeated the Qiang cavalry:

It's really incomprehensible, both sides are cavalry-based armies, one side chooses to defend the city, and the other side chooses to attack the city. Are all these war horses vegetarians?

is angry and ashamed, which is the true portrayal of Ma Teng, Cao Hong and others now. Fortunately, everyone here thinks the same thing and will be wrong.

If there were outsiders present, they would probably have to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Almost all of the people present were stunned:

Only Zhong Zhen alone is quite normal, because he has already been a little mentally prepared just now. Therefore, the impact of this big news on him was not very great.

Although Zhong Zhen was also a bit of a six-god master, after all, he was much better than Ma Teng, and he quickly calmed down. Then, he asked the spy, "What the hell is going on, tell me more about it." ”

Earlier, the spy had been almost frightened. You must know that Ma Teng and the others are all brave and warlike generals, they are angry and anxious, and the momentum they unintentionally reveal is absolutely amazing.

This spy didn't sit on the ground with a fart, which was already extraordinary, but he also used all his willpower to resist, and he was covered in cold sweat, and he almost couldn't hold on.

He didn't know what these big people were angry about and what they were ashamed of. Isn't it the defeat of the Qiang people? At most, it is dignified, and it will not be angry and ashamed.

I really don't understand.

At this time, it happened that Zhong Zhen spoke, blocking the momentum of Ma Teng and the others very well, giving the spies a chance to breathe, he took the opportunity to take a deep breath, and replied respectfully: "The Qiang people did not plan to attack Wuwei at first, but only planned to show off their might near Wuwei, and then go south to attack Jincheng, and after breaking the city, they attacked Kou Feng. But Zhao Qiyun planned to kill the Qiang commander Tuxiong, and although Tuxiong was not fooled, there was still a Qiang warrior who died. Tuxiong was furious, and at this time, Zhao Qiyun retreated to the city gate and opened the city gate to face the battle. Tuxiong took the opportunity to attack, and the result was such a situation. ”

"What? Zhao Qiyun opened the city gate and let 200,000 Wu cavalry attack? The Qiang cavalry hasn't captured it yet? Before Zhong Zhen could speak, Cao Hong exclaimed and said.

With an incredible face, Zhao Qiyun actually took the initiative to open the city gate when his strength was inferior, allowing the Qiang cavalry to attack without fear.

This is already the practice of white idiots.

But the Qiang people haven't captured it yet, which is even more white.

"I'm afraid Zhao Qiyun's purpose is not so simple, he wants to take the opportunity to provoke Tuxiong's anger, and then drag Tuxiong to death in Wuwei to help Jincheng's Fazheng and ensure the safety of Chu's Northern Expedition."

Zhong Jian thought a little deeper, shook his head and said. "What?" Cao Hong's face turned blue all of a sudden, he suddenly turned his head and asked the spy, "What about Tuxiong?" Does he really plan to fight Zhao Qiyun in Wuwei? ”

Cao Hong is almost crazy, the Qiang people failed once, they actually lost their brains, staring at Wuwei, don't they know that the real key is on Xianyang's side.

As long as the defeat of Fa Zheng in Jincheng and Wu Yi in Qinchuan forced Kou Feng to return to Chengdu. Zhao Qiyun's army has become a lone army, and it is too easy to take it without help.

And now the Qiang people are actually Cao Hong is really speechless.

If you're really not afraid of a powerful enemy, you're afraid of friendly forces that eat shit. Cao Hong's heart scolded his mother.

"What is the attitude of Lord Liang? Could it be that he just watched Tu Xiong be confused? Zhong Zhen's face was also very ugly, and he asked.

"Now that the Lianghou forces are very weak, it is better to fight for the influence of the Qiang people." The spy shook his head and said. He had entered the camp of the Qiang tribe and had contact with Han Sui, so he knew so clearly.

"It's really a vertical can't be used, and mediocre people can't be used."

Zhong Zhen sighed when he heard this, and he actually thought of going with Cao Hong. The Qiang people are too stupid to be allies to plot together.

Ma Teng and the others were silent when they heard this, they needed a little time to digest the current situation. Expectations, expectations are good, but the reality is cruel.

They didn't wait for reinforcements from the Qiang tribe, and the soldiers they waited for were this piece of news that made people laugh and cry.

"What now?" After digesting it for a moment, Ma Teng raised his head and looked at Zhong Zhen and asked. Cao Hong, Ma Chao, Yan Xing and others also set their sights on Zhong Zhen.

If you want to say that you are brave and good at fighting, those present are countless times stronger than Zhong Zhen. But if Hafnium is wise, it can't catch up.

"The situation is a little bit worse than expected, but we don't have an advantage. For example, although 200,000 Qiang cavalry were dragged in Xiliang. But look at it from another angle. Zhao Qiyun was also dragged down. The Chu army did not have any cavalry, and we still had 100,000 cavalry and 80,000 foot soldiers. Among them, there are 50,000 tigers and leopards, and the Chu army is only more than 100,000 foot soldiers. Our odds are still very good. ”

The essence in Zhong Xiang's eyes flashed, and he analyzed.

"But at present, Kou Feng is only sitting in Jump County, and he has not attacked Xianyang or Chang'an. Jumping County is close to Xiegu Road, and there is a steady stream of grain from Hanzhong to Jumping County during this period. If he stubbornly defends Yu County, we won't be able to win. ”

Yan Xing hesitated.

"Then let him attack Chang'an."

Zhong Yi's eyes flashed with determination when he heard this, and he said.

"Give up Chang'an? Isn't that too risky? Everyone was taken aback. Among them, Ma Teng said even more silently.

They already understood what Zhong Zhen meant, and let Chang'an go to attract Kou Feng to attack. That way, they'll be able to stop Kou Feng on the way.

Even if the blockade is unsuccessful, as long as Kou Feng's army is sucked into Chang'an, and then closed. It's a lone army. Under the eyes of more than 100,000 iron horsemen, he could only stay in Chang'an alone.

It's a good idea, but it's also too costly.

Changan.

This city is not simple
