Chapter 259 The Xiliang Army Surrounds Chang'an
Ma Chao told Han Sui in detail about the series of arrangements before Zhuge Liang, including Sun Quan's policy of joining the Eastern Conference and Cao Cao's policy of fighting against the Northern Expedition.
Han Sui was a dead guy. After hearing this plan, he immediately clapped his hands and greeted him excitedly.
"Good guy, this person really has the talent of advancing the world. Your courage is when you meet this wise man. The thief can be captured, the hatred and humiliation can be repaid, and the world can be obtained!"
Ma Chao was also said to be so excited that he seemed to really fantasize about one day conquering the Central Plains and unifying the world.
If you can really do that, your father and Jiuquan will definitely be proud of yourself.
He is worthy of his ancestors for many generations!
...
Ma Chao and Han Sui led the mighty Xiliang army north and soon arrived in Chang'an County.
Zhong Yao, the governor of Chang'an County, looked at the mighty Xiliang army and hurriedly asked someone to report to Cao Cao.
Although he was timid, as the prefect of a county, he could only lead troops out of the city to meet the enemy.
Ma Chao was disdainful to fight in person for such a small character blocking the way. He asked the vanguard Ma Dai to lead 15,000 troops to attack.
At first, Zhong Yao had not taken Ma Dai seriously, so he led his troops out to fight Ma Dai.
Ma Dai pretended to be defeated and flew backwards at a very fast speed.
Zhong Yao thought he was indeed brave and kept chasing him.
As a result, in the wilderness, Ma Dai had already ambushed here and fought from all directions.
Zhong Yao was defeated and not only did he lose his troops, but he was almost killed by Ma Dai with his sword.
When Ma Chao saw this situation, he was even more excited and laughed.
"See, Cao's army is just such a waste."
All the generals agreed and followed Ma Chao and laughed loudly.
Although Zhong Yao escaped by chance, he did not dare to come out again after returning to the city.
After Chang'an City, dominated by Ma Chao, he did not launch an attack directly. He was waiting for Han Sui's arrival.
Zhong Yao stood on the city and looked at the situation below, feeling very surprised.
Ma Teng's rebellion had just been put down before, and Ma Chao really had the courage to launch an attack so quickly.
Everyone knows the bravery of the Xiliang Army in the world.
If these brave guys break into the city, what will happen? He can't even think about it.
Fortunately, Chang'an was the supervision place of the Western Han Dynasty after all, with strong city walls and
The trench is dangerous and deep as a support.
Even if Ma Tenghan Sui forcibly attacked the city, he could still defend it for a while.
He only hopes that during this time, Cao Cao's reinforcements will come.
Old Zhong Yao looked like he was going to defend the city.
Ma Chao at the city was suddenly helpless, and after she found Han Sui.
The young and energetic Ma Chao said, "Uncle, in my opinion, we should attack the city quickly!"
Han Sui hurriedly stopped him, "No, even if we attack Chang'an City, it will be a loss-making loss. When Cao Cao's army arrives, what will we use to fight him?"
"So, what should I do?" Ma Chao asked.
Han Sui analyzed: "I predict that there will be a day when the food and grass in Chang'an City will be short. We besieged him for a few days. When there is a famine in the city, our city will be destroyed without attacking!"
Ma Chao suddenly became anxious. He was anxious to seek revenge on Cao Cao and could not wait for a moment.
"Uncle, the revenge of killing my father is irreconcilable. I can't wait for a moment. I just want to kill the Cao thief as soon as possible!"
Looking at Ma Chao's anxious look, Han Sui could only comfort him: "I understand your mood suddenly, but just doing it will only waste your life!"
Seeing that Han Sui was determined not to attack, Ma Chao had no choice but to give up and had to go back.
Ma Chao returned to his tent angrily, pounded the table hard, and drank a few sips of stuffy wine.
When Pang De saw his appearance, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "General, what's wrong?"
Ma Chao said depressedly: "Uncle, he said that Chang'an City is easy to defend but difficult to attack, so we cannot act rashly. He plans to besiege the city in short supply of food!"
Pang De was stunned and couldn't help but say casually: "A group of Chang'an City is going to be besieged until they are short of food. Will it take more than 10 days to go?"
It would be fine if he didn't say it, but Ma Chao became even more popular when he said it.
"Bastard, it's obviously this old guy who is afraid of death!"
Ma Chao's anger immediately scared Pang De. He hurriedly said, "General, be careful!"
"hehe……"
Ma Chao didn't say anything, but he sneered, and even more felt that Han Sui was a timid person.
His father died tragically, and the anger in his heart is still burning, so anyone who hinders his revenge will be held revenge by him.
As a result, on the second day, another news that made Ma Chao feel angry came.
Han then ordered the troops to lead the troops to retreat, and also asked Ma Chao to cut off the rear personally.
Ma Chao was so angry that he almost overturned the table, "If he wants to be greedy for life and death, he can go by himself. Why do you still have to pull me up? I have a bloody revenge and I will not be ordered!"
After hearing Ma Chao's words, the command captain sent by Han Sui was so scared that he dared not speak.
In the land of Xiliang, the strong are respected.
Ma Chao has such strong strength, but he is not a good person to get along with.
This lieutenant was just a person responsible for the order, but it annoyed Ma Chao. Even if the other party killed him with one knife, he would have to be in trouble naturally.
Pang De, who was standing aside, could only look forward to say with a fierce anger when he saw Ma Chao so much, and said, "General, maybe General Han has any ideas. He did it intentionally and not really want to retreat!"
Ma Chao looked at Pang De skeptically.
If this is true, then you might as well listen to him for a try.
Ma Chao still trusts him very much now. The heart-to-heart talks he had with this uncle before his departure came from his heart. He believed that Han Sui had a brotherly relationship with Ma Peng.
The next day, just like Han Sui's military order, Ma Chao led the army to cut off the rear.
The Xiliang Army, the entire army slowly retreated.
Just as he retreated farther and farther, Ma Chao almost suspected that Han Sui was really going to retreat.
Ma Chao complained all the way, "I think this old guy really doesn't have any special strategy. He doesn't really want to retreat, right?"
Ma Chao was just about to go to Han Sui and ask what was going on.
A lieutenant under Han Sui's tent came to pass the order with great speed.
"General Meng Qi, General Han asked me to pass on the order to you, stop retreating, and set up ambush here to wait."
Ma Chao frowned and asked in confusion: "What does this mean?"
The captain who sent the order said again: "The general only said that you only need to wait here. There will definitely be soldiers in Chang'an City. Please lead the army to kill them!"
After hearing the captain's words, Ma Chao's expression immediately became joyful.
He looked at Pang De on the side, "It seems you are right. My uncle is indeed very scheming."
