Since ancient times, the borders of the Celestial Dynasty were remote and boundless. The country was strong and the foreign tribes had repeatedly invaded but failed to succeed. However, due to the difficulty of managing the territory, the border areas were often harassed. Because of the distance, it was difficult for the central government to control them. After a long time, they simply let it go. The local people gradually formed militia groups to resist in order to protect themselves. After the change of the country, they became what the Han people called barbarians. At the beginning of the Three Kingdoms, they gathered more powerful forces: Qiang, Yi, Wuhuan, Nanman, and Shanyue.

Among them, the Qiang and Wuhuan faced the Han army, and behind them were nomadic tribes that had yet to establish a country. In order to save their lives, they had accumulated combat strength over a long period of time that was far stronger than the other three tribes. Even women and children could hold weapons to kill the enemy when necessary.

However, although the other three tribes were not as strong as the Qiang and Wuhuan, they were also hated by the various prefectures and counties because they were born to be brave and ruthless.

The Qiang were naturally brave and good at fighting, but they were naturally hospitable. In addition, the officials of the local prefectures (Liangzhou, present-day Xinjiang, Tianshan, Dunhuang, and other places) had always been benevolent and loving, so they had a good integration with the Han people. The officials and the people had become a powerful force.

After Emperor Ling, Liu Hong, ascended the throne, he believed in the words of the Shi Chang Shi and demoted Ma Heng, who had Qiang blood, to the position of provincial governor appointed by the central government. Meng Tuo, nicknamed "Blood Bat", was a wolf with a wicked heart. In order to scrape off the government's grease, he actually took the weapons he wanted to buy from the government as private silver and replaced them with wooden swords and spears. At that time, the Yellow Turban rebels spread to Liangzhou, and their weapons were poor, so they defeated the Yellow Turban rebels more than ten times in a row. With the size of Liangzhou's eight counties, only Xiliang and Wuling were left to resist.

Xiliang City was the head of the eight prefectures of Liangzhou. The prefect Ma Heng was originally the governor of Liangzhou, but was later demoted to the prefect of Luud. A few years ago, Ma Heng was ill and could not get up. He was unable to deal with the internal affairs of the city, so now all the affairs were done by his son Ma Teng. Ma Teng grew eight and a half feet tall, different from ordinary people, and born with divine power, his bravery and good at fighting are famous in Liangzhou. Moreover, because he had half the bloodline of the Qiang people, he often acted as a bridge between the two tribes and won the hearts of the people in Xiliang.

At the end of spring and the beginning of summer, Hu Zheng led 70,000 Yellow Turban soldiers under the name of " Deputy General of Heaven Duke " to Xiliang City. Ma Teng led 20,000 soldiers to hold out and fought more than 20 battles. The situation in Xiliang was getting worse by the day, and it seemed that the city would be broken soon.

"Uncle Jin, how is my father's illness?"

Ma Teng couldn't hide the exhaustion on his face. The fierce battle between the two sides had consumed a lot of energy, but even so, he was still very concerned about the dying Ma Heng.

"Sigh! The doctor could only use the soup to hang your father's last breath…Your father misses you so much and wants to see you…Teng 'er, are you really not going back to take a look?”

Ma Jin was Ma Heng's younger brother and Ma Teng's second uncle. He was currently in charge of patrolling the city.

"Although we won two of the two battles this morning, we also lost more than three thousand brothers…Just now, the vice commander on duty reported that there were only about 8,000 soldiers left to defend the city…You said I could leave this place... Are you going back to see Dad?"

"Which of the soldiers who are on guard now doesn't have someone in their family who cares about them…"

Ma Teng looked at Ma Jin with moist eyes, then at the Yellow Turban Army that was everywhere outside Western Liang City. He remained silent for a long time.

“... Second Uncle, please tell my father that if the Yellow Turban bandits don't retreat, I, Ma Teng... They would always be stationed on the marshal's tower. As the saying goes, if the people are alive, the city will be destroyed!”

Ma Jin wanted to say something but stopped. Suddenly, a messenger fell into the marshal's building like a ferocious wolf pouncing on a tiger. Ma Teng was shocked and hurriedly helped him up.

"Reporting... The west gate was about four hundred paces away... About... More than ten thousand Yellow Turban bandits rushed over…Please make a decision, prefect…"

"Oh no!"

After hearing this, Ma Teng immediately leaped down the city wall. He fell like an arrow and was about to fall into a pile of meat paste. However, Ma Teng pulled out his saber with his right hand and slashed at the ground. With a loud bang, a large pit appeared on the ground. Ma Teng was bounced up by the rebound and ran toward the west gate that was ten feet away.

Ma Teng used all his strength to move towards the west gate. As soon as he reached the top of the city wall, he saw the yellow dust rolling in front of him. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers were charging at them like wolves and tigers. Ma Teng looked back at his generals. Everyone's face was like dust, without any fighting spirit to speak of. Seeing that the Yellow Turban army was approaching the city, Ma Teng had an idea and immediately jumped down. He said to the deputy general beside him," Immediately order a thousand suicide squads to come here and wait for my order to move!”

The Yellow Turban soldiers had just arrived at the city gates and were about to reorganize and attack the city when they saw a man jump down from the city gates as if he was committing suicide. At this moment, the leader was Hu Zheng's left-hand general, Bai Yuan. When Bai Yuan saw that it was Ma Teng, he immediately ordered the rumor to kill Ma Teng with all his might. He even raised his spiked club and rode towards Ma Teng.

Ma Teng swung his saber horizontally and unleashed the force of the saber. The five Yellow Turban soldiers in front of him were immediately beheaded and their blood splattered on the spot. Just as he was about to swipe his saber backward to kill the Yellow Turban soldiers behind him who were about to launch a sneak attack, a whooshing sound suddenly approached from the left. Ma Teng hurriedly slashed to the left. In an instant, the sound of metal clashing was deafening. At this moment, he looked back and realized that Bai Yuan had personally come out to kill them.

The two of them understood that the other party was not an ordinary person, and there was no room for hesitation on the battlefield. Ma Teng decided to abandon Bai Yuan and continue to fight.

Without other masters like Bai Yuan, Ma Teng was like a wild lion or a tiger among a flock of sheep in the Yellow Turban Army. Besides Bai Yuan's attack, no one else could take his second move. Outside the city, corpses littered the ground and wails filled the sky. The Yellow Turban Army's morale seemed to be gradually reduced by Ma Teng's charge. Seeing that the time had come, Ma Teng suddenly leaped into the air, twisted his waist, and stepped on the head of a Yellow Turban soldier. When he was about ten feet in the air, he stirred up his inner strength and roared into the sky.

The Yellow Turban soldiers looked up and saw that Ma Teng was like a god descending. For a moment, they forgot to fight, but then the formation suddenly exploded. It turned out to be the more than 1,000 suicide squads who had just entered the ranks.

These more than a thousand men of sacrifice had received Ma Teng's roar as a signal. At this moment, they charged at the Yellow Turban Army, whose formation had been thrown into disarray. The Yellow Turban Army was instantly killed and fled like rats. No one was willing to listen to Bai Yuan's orders.

Ma Teng understood that this was a chance he couldn't miss. He gathered the power of his saber and struck down at the flustered and flustered Bai Yuan. Bai Yuan hurriedly held his staff with both hands and blocked the saber. However, Ma Teng's Stellar-Piercing Saber Qi was extremely powerful. In addition, the momentum of his attack from top to bottom was far greater than Bai Yuan's. Therefore, although Bai Yuan barely received the saber, his protective true skill was instantly broken by Ma Teng. Bai Yuan's True Technique was broken, and he vomited blood. He could no longer hold the spiked club in his hand, let alone go forward to exchange blows with Ma Teng. At this moment, Ma Teng hurriedly added another slash and ended Bai Yuan's life.

The commander-in-chief was killed, and the Yellow Turban Army was in chaos. For a moment, the army was utterly defeated and the soldiers collapsed like a mountain. Ma Teng immediately cut off Bai Yuan's head and rode around the west gate to summon the Yellow Turban Army to surrender.

Seeing that their commander had killed the enemy leader, the morale of the Western Liang army was boosted even more. They also loudly called on the Yellow Turban army to abandon their weapons and surrender. From then on, the resentment that Western Liang had felt over the past few days was slightly restored.

This battle took a lot of time. Ma Teng felt that he had left the city for too long. Just as he was about to withdraw his troops, a fast horse galloped over and kept shouting,"Governor Ma!" Governor Ma! We've fallen into the Yellow Turban bandits 'trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain. Hu Zheng is currently personally leading an army of 80,000 to attack the east gate. The remaining thousands of soldiers in Western Liang are about to be unable to hold on…"

He had thought that this battle would be too easy, but at this moment, Ma Teng finally understood his opponent's scheme. He unconsciously shouted," Oh no!”
