Mateng and Han Sui led 80,000 cavalrymen, not attacking any counties along the way. They took a detour and charged straight for Chang 'an.
They were discovered before they even reached Xinping.
The scout hurriedly went to report to Niu Fu of Fufeng Commandery.
Niu Fu was shocked and terrified when he heard the news.
After becoming Right Fufeng, he thought that he could stay away from the battlefield and rest easy. In the end, not long after, someone came to attack again.
"There are less than 10,000 soldiers in Fufeng Commandery, including the guards. We can't stop them!”
After much consideration, Niu Fu quickly packed up the gold, silver, and soft goods and quietly escaped from Fufeng County.
It had been less than six hours since he heard the news and escaped.
Instantly, the entire Windraiser fell into chaos.
The county governor had already run away, so he might as well vote.
However, just as everyone in Windfall Commandery was about to surrender, they realized that the enemy troops were not coming for Windfall Commandery at all. It was just a false alarm.
The people from Fufeng County discussed and quickly dispatched soldiers to defend the city.
At the same time, he reported to Chang 'an.
In stark contrast to Fufeng County was Anding County.
County Governor Jiang Xu and the Duke of Duty Jiang Tong quickly responded, leading more than ten thousand troops to personally guard the front line.
Although Han Sui, Ma Teng, and the others did not touch Anding.
However, it was completely different for Dong Luo.
He led 80,000 troops. As soon as he crossed the Wei River, he received reports from Fufeng and Anding counties. The scouts even captured Niu Fu, who was sneaking around.
Dong Luo was furious after learning the whole story.
"Zi Ru, I…"
Niu Fu knew that he had made a huge mistake and wanted to defend himself.
When he saw Dong Luo's eyes, his body trembled and he knelt on the ground, unable to speak.
Dong Luo was so angry that he didn't care that this person was his uncle and whipped him twice in disappointment.
A few of the old generals of Western Liang who had been under Niu Fu, such as Guo Si and Zhang Ji, were gloating.
"Niu Fu, you're useless! Go back to the dock to accompany my Great-Grandma, and don't let me see you in the future!”
Niu Fu immediately knelt down and retreated.
Jia Xu spoke up at this moment," Prime Minister, the plan now is to send a general to guard Fufeng in case Han Sui and Ma Teng find out and occupy Fufeng.”
Dong Luo nodded." Who's willing to go?”
No one spoke. Everyone wanted military merits.
Jia Xu added," Guarding Fufeng can be a surprise attack. When we fight here, we can ambush Han Sui and the others."”
Hearing this, a few of them were tempted.
Dong Luo's gaze locked onto Zhang Ji." General Zhang, please lead 10,000 troops to guard Fufeng and combine them with the original forces of Fufeng. Await your orders!"”
"I accept your orders!"
Zhang Ji immediately stood up, bowed, and left the tent.
After that, Dong Luo sent people to reward Jiang Xu and Jiang Tong of Anding, and asked Li Ru of Chang 'an to choose another candidate to govern Fufeng.
Jiang Tong was also Jiang Wei's father. Dong Luo smiled in his heart.
After that, the army continued to move forward and set up an ambush in Wugong County.
Guo Si led 20,000 troops to Xinping from the north. He built a line of defense to cut off Han Sui and Ma Teng's retreat, blocking them between Wugong and Xinping.
They had received the information that Han Sui and Ma Teng were traveling light and had only brought rations for a month at most.
......
Han Sui and Ma Teng's army had not reacted yet. Their target was only Chang 'an.
As long as they took down Chang 'an, everything would be fine.
Therefore, they each had three horses and only brought 20 days 'worth of food.
Along the way, they had indeed verified their guesses.
Today, while they were resting.
"Report! It is said that the right Fufeng Niu Fu fled, Fufeng County now no one presided over.”
Han Sui laughed." Chang 'an is indeed empty. It scared them so much that they didn't even dare to defend it. We'll come back and take over after we take Chang' an."”
"Report! There was a general from Wugong County leading 5,000 troops out of the city and coming here!”
Ma Teng frowned." It seems like Windfall isn't the only one who discovered us.”
Han Sui took a bite of hard meat." Then kill those five thousand people. We are all cavalry. It is only a day and a half's journey from here to Chang 'an. Little Dong will not be able to react in time."”
Ma Chao immediately raised his spear and stood up." Give me 3,000 cavalrymen. I'll destroy them."”
"Don't be reckless!" Ma Teng glared at him.
Han Sui smiled." Meng Qi is brave, but we can't be reckless. 3,000 is too little. Let's make it 8,000. We must wipe them all out. We have to continue our journey in six hours at most."”
"There's no need for six hours. One is enough!”
Ma Chao was extremely confident.
When he appeared with 8,000 cavalrymen, he saw that there were indeed 5,000 troops in front of him, and they were all infantry. He immediately sneered and led the army to charge over.
These five thousand people were led by Zhang Liao, and he hurriedly ordered his men to get into formation.
Halfway through, Ma Chao saw the might of the enemy's commander and shouted loudly, raising his spear to attack Zhang Liao.
But at this moment, a loud neigh of a horse sounded from behind Zhang Liao's army.
Yuwen Cheng's tall figure appeared and caught Ma Chao in Zhang Liao's place.
Zhang Liao moved his horse to deal with the cavalrymen behind Ma Chao. At the same time, he whistled and the ambushes on both sides appeared.
Ma Chao was shocked when he saw another golden-armored general who was as mighty as a Divine General.
"Who is it?"
"Yuwen Cheng!"
As he spoke, Yuwen Cheng waved his phoenix wings and threw them at Ma Chao.
Ma Chao blocked with his spear.
He instantly felt a force as strong as Mount Tai.
With a bang, Ma Chao's thumb and forefinger exploded, and his body shook violently. His spear broke and his horse broke, and he fell to the ground.
As soon as he landed, he struggled to get up, but a few soldiers held a knife to his neck.
His hands were trembling, and he was powerless to fight, but the shock on his face was still there.
He, who was brave and invincible in Liangzhou and Xiqiang, was actually beaten down in an instant.
"Bring him back!" Yuwen Cheng said lightly.
The 8,000 cavalrymen were attacked from three sides and Ma Chao was captured. They were instantly thrown into chaos and were all defeated.
Elsewhere, Han Sui and Ma Teng, who had just received the report of Ma Chao's defeat and capture, were shocked. They had just stood up when they heard countless shouts and killing cries.
"Not good! Mount your horses and fight the enemy!"
After the two armies fought for a while, Han Sui and Ma Teng lost nearly a thousand men, and they all withdrew.
After all, Dong Luo still wanted to subdue Ma Teng's family.
That night, Han Sui and Ma Teng received bad news.
"Report! Enemy troops have appeared in Xinping and cut off our retreat. There are at least 20,000 of them!”
"Little Dong, you thief, actually tricked me!”
Han Sui knew that he had been tricked. He felt extremely humiliated and immediately cursed.
