Three Kingdoms: I am the Holy Son of the Yellow Turbans, my father is a wise and good teacher

Chapter 220



Inside Ma Teng's camp. "Ma Taishou, cooperating with us is definitely the best choice right now, otherwise your more than 10,000 soldiers will be wiped out!"

After Zhang Jiefu arrived and revealed his identity, he did not get much good looks from Ma Teng. Although there were rumors of Taiping Dao in Liangzhou, Ma Teng felt that no matter what, even if he was acting on orders, he should not have killed so many loyal ministers and generals of the Han Dynasty, otherwise it would not have become the current situation.

So Ma Teng did not have much good feelings for the Ming Dynasty, at most he did not regard it as an enemy.

Ma Teng looked at Zhang Jiefu in front of him and said with disdain: "Humph, my Xiliang warriors are brave and good at fighting. Even if there are only more than 10,000 people, we can destroy Han Sui, the kid. Why should we cooperate with you?"

His tone was firm, and he seemed to be full of confidence in his army.

Zhang Jiefu sighed in his heart, thinking that Ma Teng was really stubborn.

But he also understood that if he could not convince Ma Teng, this mission might not be completed.

So he decided to persuade Ma Teng in another way.

Zhang Jiefu said: "Ma Taishou, do you know that the situation has changed now? Han Sui has now surrendered to Dong, and their military strength is far greater than yours. If you insist on fighting them alone, I'm afraid you won't win!"

After hearing this, Ma Teng showed a hint of surprise on his face, but then he returned to his indifference.

He said: "Although my Xiliang army is not as many as Han Sui, they are all brave men. How can I be afraid of that Han Sui kid? Besides, my son Ma Chao is very skilled in martial arts and will definitely help me defeat the enemy!"

Zhang Jiefu saw that Ma Teng was so persistent and knew that it was useless to persuade him again.

He had no choice but to shake his head helplessly, thinking that this mission might fail.

At this time, Pang Rou on the side stood up to comfort Zhang Jiefu.

Pang Rou said: "Don't worry, envoy, my master is just impulsive. I will persuade him, and I believe he will change his mind." After that, Pang Rou gave Zhang Jiefu a look, indicating that he should leave the tent first.

Zhang Jiefu nodded in understanding, and then followed the people arranged by Pang Rou to rest.

He prayed in his heart, hoping that Pang Rou could persuade Ma Teng to agree to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty.

After all, this mission is related to whether Liangzhou can be taken quickly. If Liangzhou can be taken quickly, Hangu Pass can be taken in advance to trap Dong Zhuo.

"My lord, the situation is different now. The position of the Ming Dynasty is actually the same as yours. Everything is for the Han Dynasty, so it is better to cooperate. But with more than 10,000 of us fighting against Han Sui's 90,000, there is no chance of winning!"

After Zhang Jiefu left, Pang Rou began to persuade Ma Teng to agree to cooperate. With such an obvious gap in military strength, Pang Rou felt that it would be impossible to win unless it was a miracle.

And now the army of the Ming Dynasty is a miracle. If you don't grasp it well, it will be too late to regret it later.

Pang De echoed, "My Lord, cooperation is actually a good thing. At least it can reduce the casualties of our soldiers, and we can also take Liangzhou City and kill Han Sui to avenge our brothers!"

Pang De and Pang Rou began to persuade Ma Teng, but Ma Chao remained silent.

"Alas!" Ma Teng finally sighed heavily, his heart was already shaken.

He knew that what Pang Rou and Pang De said made sense. If they could cooperate with the Ming Dynasty, they would have more power to fight against Han Sui.

But at the same time, he was also worried that cooperation with the Ming Dynasty would bring some unpredictable consequences. Ma Teng was entangled in his heart, and he knew that this decision was related to the fate of the entire Ma family army.

"My Lord, for the lives of the soldiers, please agree!" Pang De and Pang Rou said in unison.

Ma Chao was also touched when he heard this. The lives of more than 10,000 soldiers were now in the hands of his father's decision.

He knew that if he could join forces with the Ming Dynasty, there might be a glimmer of hope.

So, Ma Chao finally couldn't help but say, "Father!"

His eyes were firm and resolute, and he was obviously determined to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty to attack Liangzhou City.

Seeing this, Ma Teng sighed deeply again: "Forget it, since you all think so, then just do it!" At this point, Ma Teng could only choose to compromise helplessly.

After all, the current situation has forced them to make a choice. The possibility of defeating Han Sui and capturing Liangzhou City by himself is really too small. Instead of letting the soldiers die in vain, it is better to cooperate, reduce casualties, and take Liangzhou City and kill Han Sui.

After thinking this through, Ma Teng understood everything at once. It can be said that he has thought everything through. He has indeed fallen into a self-misunderstanding just now..

"My Lord is wise!" At the end, Pang Rou did not forget to flatter Ma Teng's wise decision.

Afterwards, Pang Rou went to find Zhang Jiefu, conveyed the news to him, and agreed with Zhang Jiefu to attack Liangzhou City together tomorrow.

After Zhang Jiefu returned to the camp, he immediately went to Yue Fei to report the results.

After listening, Yue Fei immediately summoned everyone to discuss how to attack the city. After all, he now has only 30,000 Yue Family Army under his command, plus more than 10,000 people under Ma Teng, which is only more than 40,000 people.

There are at least 80,000 to 90,000 Western Liang troops in Liangzhou City, and the gap of two times is indeed difficult to make up.

"Everyone, now our military strength is far behind Han Sui, but the city must be attacked. What good strategies do you have?" Yue Fei looked at the generals and asked.

"Governor, in fact, it is not necessary to capture Liangzhou City in one fell swoop when attacking the city tomorrow. We can weaken the military strength of Liangzhou City first!" Xi Zhicai thought for a while and said.

"Oh? How should we do it?" Yue Fei's eyes lit up and he asked hurriedly.

"Just let Ma Teng continue to besiege Han Sui, and then we will set up some traps and fortifications outside the city to attract Han Sui to come out of the city to fight."

"Once they leave the city, we will use our superior forces to destroy them or drive them back to the city."

"In this way, Han Sui's forces will be constantly consumed, and we can wait for the arrival of the other two armies." Xi Zhicai explained in detail.

Yue Fei listened and nodded slightly to show his agreement. Although this strategy is simple, it is very practical. As long as Han Sui can be trapped, the resistance during the siege can be greatly reduced. Moreover, by constantly consuming Han Sui's forces, we can reduce our losses.

"Okay, then do as you say, but we must also be prepared to deal with various situations. Han Sui is not someone who is so easily trapped, he will definitely try his best to break through." Yue Fei reminded.

"Don't worry, Governor. We have prepared everything. As long as Han Sui dares to leave the city, we will make sure he never comes back." Xi Zhicai said confidently.
