Outside Chang'an City

Ma Teng and others fled all the way to the gate of the east city before stopping. Everyone was panting and their faces were pale.

Suddenly, something strange flashed across Ma Teng's face, and he turned his head and asked, "Are there any pursuers coming from behind?!"

"Sir, it seems not!" Several scouts looked at each other and then replied in a low voice.

"Huh?" When Han Sui heard this, his expression changed, and he unconsciously stroked his beard and eyebrows and said to himself: "This is strange. If there is an ambush, when our army is scattered and fleeing, we don't pursue it?!"

On the side, Xiahou Dun said: "Maybe the other party is also worried about the general's troops in Chang'an City!"

Han Sui, Ma Teng and others had just brought over ten thousand people, but there were still thirty-six thousand or seven thousand soldiers and horses near Chang'an. What Xiahou Dun said seemed possible, but Han Sui's brows did not relax!

"General Xiahou, I'm afraid your words are wrong!" Han Sui slowly shook his head, stroking his beard and continued, "Wu Zhaohou and even his generals are mostly cunning and steady people. If he hadn't, he would have defeated our army of 60,000 people.

How could you easily set up an ambush?!"

"so..."

Just as Ma Teng was about to speak, suddenly a horse riding Juechen came, and a scout said quickly, "General, I've fallen into a trap!"

Ma Teng, who was interrupted, turned his head displeased and said coldly: "Why did you fall into the trap?!"

The scout said anxiously: "Just now, after the villain saw Zhang Fei and others and nearly a thousand defeated soldiers walking out of the canyon, he turned back and went up the mountain. There were no redundant men and horses on the mountain, only many of them were still tied to the tree trunks.

big drum and shaking drumsticks!”

"What!?" Ma Teng, Han Sui and others were shocked when they heard this. Huoran suddenly woke up and lost his voice. "Doesn't that mean that we were completely scared away just now?!"

"This is bad."

"If we wait for Zhang Fei and others to return to Tongguan, with Zhang Fei's courage and Yan Rou's cooperation, how can Tongguan's natural danger be easily overcome?!"

"This is not the most important thing. If Tongguan cannot be conquered quickly, then Wu Zhaohou will receive the news and use Yanmen to cross Shangjun and go north to cut off our army's retreat, wouldn't it be..."

For a moment, all the nearby generals lost their voices.

"Shut up!" Han Sui blushed and yelled, immediately silencing all the generals in the field. Then he turned to look at the scout and said fiercely: "Is this news true?!"

The scout swallowed and said in a trembling voice: "The villain has searched many places, and the news is absolutely true! Even the official road is blocked by huge rocks!"

After the news was confirmed, Ma Teng couldn't help it anymore and said anxiously: "Han Sui, you must not let Zhang Fei and others leave!"

"I also know that Zhang Fei and others must not be let go!" Han Sui looked regretful, beat his chest and sighed: "But now, the official road has been blocked, even if they move away, they can't catch up.

It’s over!”

"Then what should I do now?!" Ma Teng asked, trembling all over.

"Don't disturb me!" Han Sui shouted and said quickly: "Where is Zhang Heng?!"

"The end is here!"

"I order you to lead five thousand Qingqi and rush to Xianyang to take charge at starry night!"

"The last general takes command!"

"Where is Cheng Yi?"

"The end is here!"

"I order you to lead five thousand Qingqi and go to martial arts on a starry night!"

"The last general takes command!"

Han Sui nodded at the two generals before looking at Ma Teng, clasped his hands around the riding whip and said: "Brother, we are in a remote place, the folk customs are strong, and the Qiang people are everywhere. I don't worry about Marquis Wu Zhao taking salary from the cauldron, but I have to worry about my dear brother!"

"

Seeing that Han Sui was willing to send two generals to help him defend the city, Ma Teng was quite moved. He lost all his resentment, clasped his fists, and shouted in a deep voice:

"Where is the Kingdom?!"

"The end is here!"

"I order you to quickly mobilize 10,000 troops and rush to Xinping. If Wu Zhaohou really raises his troops, if necessary, you can take the initiative to attack him halfway across the river when Wu Zhaohou is crossing the river!"

"The last general takes command!"

Wang Guo's eyes lit up, and he, Zhang Heng, and Cheng Yi were already leading the troops away while holding their fists.

There were originally about 50,000 soldiers left, but now Guo Guo and others have taken away 20,000, and there are more than 30,000 left. As long as they work slowly, Tongguan will be broken. Ma and Teng are confident about this!

"Now that everything has been arranged, our army can rest for a day and slowly march towards Tongguan!" Han Sui took a look at the sky, dismounted, and threw the whip to his cronies: "There is no need to pursue Zhang Fei anymore, that guy is seriously injured. I want to come."

Even if you survive, you won't be able to go to the battlefield again in a short time!

"Brother Xian said it is true!" Ma Teng felt tired after days of attacking the city. Hearing Han Sui's words, he didn't say much. He turned over and dismounted, glanced sideways to the east, and entered the city!

The fire only swept through the main gate, that is, the south gate. As for the east gate, Chi Yu was not affected. Ma Chao reined in his horse and stood outside the city. He felt a tightness in his chest, which was injured by Zhang Fei's snake spear of eight feet!

"Damn it Zhang Fei, the natural dangers of Tongguan cannot stop me from killing you. I will wait for you..."

He reached out and rubbed his stuffy chest, took a deep breath, and then muttering to himself, he reined in his horse and returned to the city!

...

On the way from Chang'an to Tongguan

A team of more than a thousand people were supporting each other and rushing towards Tongguan. Most of them had wounds with visible bones, bloody flesh, broken armor, etc. There were only a few knife and gun wounds on their bodies, which were even considered serious injuries.

Minor injuries.

Zhang Fei was free at this moment and felt a sting all over his body. He didn't dare to ride on the horse, so he could only hold the Zhangba snake spear in his hand, and slowly hurried on with Zhou Wu's support, baring his teeth at the same time.

Grinning, he asked:

"Let me tell you! Why did you, kid, suddenly appear in that valley, and how did you suddenly set up an ambush?!"

Zhou Wuwen said, with a hint of reverence on his face: "As soon as I left the canyon, I encountered the soldiers sent by General Yan Rou. Although there were only a few, they came with General Yan Rou's strategy, so that I

With the cooperation of the generals and others, General Yan Rou is really a mastermind. According to different terrains, he came up with a total of six strategies, and the scare strategy is just the first one!"

"That boy Yan Rou is indeed good!" Zhang Fei heard this and did not refute. He just said with a worried look on his face: "It's just a pity that the lord did not bring back so much gold, silver, wealth and supplies to Dai County, and all of them were still taken away.

I am hiding outside Chang'an City, if Han Sui and others find out, it will be a disaster!"

"In my opinion, the general should worry about himself. With this look, it would be terrible if Han Sui and others catch up!"

Zhou Wu couldn't help but laugh when he heard that Zhang Fei was still worried about the gold, silver and wealth. He knew that although Yun Ye had not brought back the wealth that had been plundered by Dong Zhuo, these days, he sent people every month.

People came and took away part of it, but the rest was not much!

However, when Zhang Fei heard Zhou Wu's words, he was stunned: "Han Sui and others will definitely not be able to pursue them. I, Lao Zhang, can still confirm this. You know..."

For a moment, Zhang Fei became chatty.

...

The night is getting late, inside Tongguan, inside Yan Rou's mansion

Yan Rou had a coat draped over her shoulders and was leaning on the desk to deal with official documents. Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps. Almost without any announcement, Tian Yu pushed the door open and said quickly:

"Yan Rou, Zhang Fei and others are safe, and the news has been sent to Daijun. I am afraid that the lord will receive the news in a few days! What should we do next?!"

"Well!" Yan Rou didn't raise her head when she heard the words, she just snorted and said lightly, "Even if the Lord wants to raise troops, it will be at least more than a month later. We must take the lead and defend Tongguan.

Wait until the lord comes!"

Tian Yu was also too impatient to think about it. Hearing this, his spirit could not help but calm down. He nodded and said, "What you said is true! But I don't need to think about it!"

"No!" At this time, Yan Rou raised her head and shook her head and said: "Now that we are in a weak position, it is normal for you to be like this!" She said with a faint smile: "It's just that we can't be anxious now, we must be more steady.
