Chapter 238 Undercurrent

Ma Teng disguised himself as an ordinary soldier, and together with Pang De, escorted Ma Chao who was seriously injured and unconscious back to the military camp. Now Han Sui is still leading the army to fight. The soldiers guarding the camp naturally dare not ask about Ma Chao's side. However, the news of Ma Chao's serious injury was soon passed back to Han Sui. At the same time, Pang De received Ma Teng's order. After returning to the camp, he immediately ran to the front line and gathered his vests to return to the camp.

"Is Ma Chao seriously injured?" Han Sui's expression became heavy after receiving the news.

"No, and looking at Pang De's appearance, he is also very tired." Yan Xing nodded, frowned and looked at the retreating army and said, "Lord, the Ma family army has been brought back by Pang De. Are we still attacking the city?"

attack?

Han Sui glanced at the city wall, and Huang Zhong, who had already been put on the battlefield and walked up to the female wall, shook his head. Huang Zhong was not there before, and he could not break through. Now that Huang Zhong has returned, how can he attack?

"Get out the troops and return to the camp!" Han Sui sighed, not only sighing that the court had a good general like Huang Zhong, who was both brave and capable, but also the court's excellent military and horses were shocked.

The originally massive siege battle, as Ma Chao fell back into a coma, Cao Cao ended, and only thousands of corpses were left outside Yong County.

"General, the enemy has been defeated. Are you pursuing?" Han De came to Huang Zhong with excitement. This was his first time leading the army alone. Facing several times his own troops, he kept defending until the end. The merits of this battle alone were enough to make him promoted to another level after this battle.

"If you are defeated but not in chaos, you will definitely be attacked by Han Sui at this moment. Our army has few soldiers and should not take risks." Huang Zhong glanced at the opponent's army. Although the Qiang people were chaotic, the Xiliang army, which was responsible for the formation, was not in chaos at all. At this time, he had already decided to break the enemy, and he did not want to cause trouble at this moment.

"Here!" Han De was a little disappointed, but Huang Zhong was the commander of the first army. He had to refuse Huang Zhong's order and had to bow to respond!

On the other hand, after Han Sui returned to the camp, he did not leave and return to his camp, but brought people to visit Ma Chao.

"The power of Huang Zhongduan is, the major general fights with Huang Zhong for the best. Only when the general fights to the death can the major general be rescued." Pang De sighed and bowed, "I can't restrain Huang Zhong, I hope the general will forgive him."

"General Pang doesn't have to do this. Even though Huang Zhong left, there are still generals guarding the city. In this battle, even if General Ma can kill Huang Zhong, our army will probably find it difficult to break the city. We need to make a long-term plan for this matter." Han Sui shook his head and smiled and said, "Since General Ma is seriously injured, he will rest in the camp. The military affairs will still have to worry about General Pang."

Pang De nodded and watched Han Sui and his group leave.

"Lord, why don't you take this opportunity to kill him?" As soon as Han Sui left, Pang De saw Ma Teng, who had been dressed as a personal soldier in the photo account and lowered his head to avoid everyone's eyes.

"Han Sui is so cunning. Although he is here to visit, Yan Xing, Ma Wan and others are all by his side. If we attack at this time and are not prepared enough, if he takes the opportunity to rush out of the military camp, he will become vigilant, and it will ruin a big deal." Ma Teng shook his head. They had just returned to the camp and had no sufficient preparation time. At this moment, they turned against Han Sui. Even if they win, they could not kill Han Sui. Instead, they would make him feel vigilant. If Han Sui ran away, it would be unfavorable.

"Lord is wise." When Pang De heard this, he could only stop his anger immediately. He glanced at Ma Chao, whose IQ was unconscious on the sickbed, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. Huang Zhong's move was too heavy. Until now, Ma Chao has not yet woken up.

On the other hand, Han Sui returned to the military camp and sat in his position with his IQ. Thinking about the siege today, he gradually felt like he was retreating.

Huang Zhong was so difficult to deal with. This battle was originally a quick battle. Who knew that now, Yong County alone would take so much time. With these worlds, the court was enough to make more preparations. Even if it finally broke Yong County at any cost, it would be impossible to continue to march into Guanzhong.

"Father-in-law, are you looking for me?" Yan Xing walked in from outside the door, looked at Han Sui, and asked.

"Yeah." Han Sui nodded, and after pondering for a moment, he looked at Xiang Yan Xing and said, "You go and gather people and horses, tonight...attack Ma Chao's camp."

"Ah?" Yan Xing was stunned to see that you could be like Han Sui. Although he also hated Ma Chao, the two sides were in an alliance now, and he didn't understand why he suddenly took the other side to deal with Ma Chao.

"The power of the court is beyond my expectations." Han Sui did not hide his thoughts about his son-in-law, and pondered: "Now that our army has suffered several setbacks, the Qiang people still feel dissatisfied. Even if they break through Yong County, it will be difficult to make progress. It is better to..."

"Take off Ma Chao's head and ask for merit from the court?" Yan Xing has been following Han Sui for some time, but he can understand his father-in-law's thoughts.

"Yeah." Han Sui nodded and looked at Yan Xing with approval: "When Ma Chao was the leader of the alliance, he left a way out for us. If the situation was not done, Ma Chao would take the blame. We offered Ma Chao's head, withdrew back to Jincheng, and surrendered to the court."

Yan Xing nodded, but he felt a little uncomfortable. He always betrayed his allies. I wonder if one day he would even be sold by his father-in-law.

This thought flashed, and Yan Xing frowned and said, "It's just that, the land of Longxi is probably all the gains from the court. What if the court forces us again?"

Betrayal of Ma Chao is equivalent to giving up the land of Longxi. At that time, Jincheng will be sandwiched between Longxi and Hetao. If the court intends to be unfavorable to them, how can it be stopped by Jincheng?

When Han Sui heard this, he couldn't help but sigh: "The court is gradually regaining its momentum. We are close to the court in Xiliang. It is difficult to protect ourselves. You can ask the court to order to station in Zhangye and control the Western Regions."

"This..." Yan Xing couldn't help but frown when he heard this, "That Zhangye is a barren land. We retreat to Zhangye, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to repent to the Central Plains in this life."

"That may not be." Han Sui smiled and said, "If the power of separatist vassal of the princes has been achieved today, the court will have all the land of Xiliang. If we want to pacify the world, we may not be able to achieve it without ten years of achievements. We can retreat to Zhangye and observe the changes in the world. If the court gains power, we will become a loyal minister once? But if the court is unable to advance eastward, we can accumulate strength in Zhangye and fight back to Xiliang when the court is weak."

"Although it is a barren land, it is connected to the Western Regions countries. If it is managed properly, it may not be a foundation."

"Father-in-law is far-sighted, and Xing admires him." Yan Xing quickly bowed and praised.

In fact, Han Sui originally wanted to join forces with the Xianbei, annex the Hetao, and then join forces to attack Guanzhong. No matter how many powerful generals the court had, it would be difficult to achieve something by relying on the territory of one state.

Unfortunately, Lu Bu entered the grassland, fought south and north, killing the Xianbei people with fear and could not retreat. Not to mention joining forces to attack Guanzhong, even Hetao was difficult to break through, which made Han Sui sigh at the incompetence of the Xianbei. Now that the military defeat with Ma Chao is defeated, he can only seek this way of retreat. After all, Ma Chao is the leader. As long as the court kills the chief evil, he will surrender to the court. Han Sui believes that the current situation of the court is in danger, and he will not be able to conquer himself again.

He took advantage of the time when the imperial court recovered Longxi, and moved the people in Jincheng to Zhangye. At that time, even if the imperial court was willing to pursue the matter, the emperor would be far away and he would have no choice but to do anything to him.

Thinking of this, Han Sui calmed down a little and waved his hand and said, "You go and summon all the generals and order the soldiers of the three armies to have a meal. Take action at the third update tonight."

After saying that, he asked with some concern: "This matter needs to be kept confidential, don't let Pang De see the clues."

"Here!" Yan Xing bowed and agreed, and saw that Han Sui had no other instructions, he hurriedly said goodbye to Han Sui, went to secretly gather the generals, preparing to attack Ma Chao's camp tonight.

On the other side, after Han Sui left, Ma Chao finally woke up quietly. He saw Ma Teng and Pang De discussing matters aside, frowned and said, "Father, why did you knock me out?"

"If it weren't for this, how could Han Sui believe it?" Ma Teng snorted coldly. Ma Chao and Huang Zhong had a big battle, which was exhausted. In addition, he was knocked out by Huang Zhong. When Han Sui saw it, Ma Chao's face turned pale, so naturally there was no flaw. If Ma Chao was asked to pretend, he might not have been able to deceive Han Sui.

"Then Huang Zhong's move is too heavy." Ma Chao sat up, rubbed his still sore neck, and gritted his teeth and said, "He must be taking revenge on me!"

"You?" Ma Teng glanced at Ma Chao, sighed, and looked outside the account.

"I..." Ma Chao was extremely depressed by Ma Teng's expression and said in a depressed manner: "What's wrong with me?"

"If you can last for thirty rounds under General Han Sheng's knife, then say this." Ma Teng shook his head and sighed.

The implication is that Ma Chao can't even survive thirty rounds, so what qualifications do you have to make people hold grudges?

Ma Chao was furious when he heard this, but thinking about the fact that he and Pang De had been beaten by Huang Zhong before, he was unable to fight back, and he suddenly became depressed.

"Things tonight are related to the innocence of my Ma family. Please go and organize some troops quickly. Remember, we must do it secretly, and don't let Han Sui discover the flaws." Ma Teng ignored Ma Chao anymore, but turned his head to look at Pang De and said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, the main attacker will arrange the troops until now." Pang De heard this and hurriedly said together.

"I am relieved to act in Ling Ming." Ma Teng smiled and nodded, signaling Pang De to prepare for the war. After Pang De left, he turned his head to look at Ma Chao.

"Why is my father looking at me like this?" Ma Chao was so uncomfortable that he was staring at him.

"Meng Qi, after this battle, let me go to Chang'an and enter the martial arts lecture hall!" Ma Teng looked at Ma Chao for a long time before sighing.

"Go to Chang'an?" Ma Chao said in surprise: "Who is in charge of Longxi?"

"Hmph!" Ma Teng couldn't help but snorted coldly when he heard this: "This time you made such a huge mistake. It is a blessing that Your Majesty will not hold our Ma family accountable. The land of Longxi should be handed over to the court. You, my father and son will become officials in the future. Don't think of any unrealistic things."

Upon hearing this, Ma Chao was stunned, and silently lowered his head, and after a long time, he whispered: "Father, the child knows that he is wrong."
