He fought with Han Sui and Ma Teng, and finally Ma Teng surrendered and Han Sui died.
Out of the 80,000 men they had brought, more than 30,000 had died.
One-third of them had been shot to death by arrows while following Han Sui across the river, and the rest had surrendered.
As for Ma Teng and the others, just like Dong Luo had said, they were now the losers.
They had the treatment that the defeated deserved.
Therefore, Ma Teng and Ma Chao were locked up in the prison carriage with their hands and feet cuffed.
It had been five days since they surrendered.
"Sigh!"
Ma Teng let out a long sigh.
Ma Chao immediately comforted him," Father, don't worry. Dong Xiangguo probably won't kill us.”
"I know. It's just that I feel so stifled in this prison carriage.”
"You should have surrendered earlier if you were aggrieved. Isn't it your own choice now?”Dong Luo walked over with Yuwen Cheng.
In everyone's eyes, even though Yuwen Cheng was taller and more powerful, when he stood next to Dong Luo, the surrounding aura was suppressed by Dong Luo alone.
No one could surpass Dong Luo in terms of prestige.
Ma Teng raised his head." Dong Xiangguo, where's Han Wenyue?”
"He's dead! The arrows pierced through his heart and he died."
"Then how will Dong Xiangguo deal with us?”Ma Teng knew that the situation was really over.
It was good that Han Sui was dead!
Dong Luo's gaze turned cold." Do you know why I've always wanted to recruit you?”
Ma Teng shook his head." I don't know. Although I'm the descendant of General Fubo, I've also betrayed the imperial court in recent years. I really don't understand why Dong Xiangguo is holding back.”
"Because of your son!" Dong Luo patted Ma Chao's prison carriage." Ma Chao is brave and talented. I cherish talent and want to subdue him!”
"This…"
Ma Teng didn't expect it to be like this.
Ma Chao, on the other hand, became excited. He had a violent personality and was bold and unconstrained, but he still respected those who were stronger than him or who thought highly of him and treated him sincerely.
Ma Chao immediately knelt on one knee in the prison carriage." I am valued by the Prime Minister. I am willing to serve the Prime Minister!”
"Good!" Dong Luo laughed and ordered his men to open the prison carriage.
After Ma Chao came down, he looked a little troubled." Prime Minister, my father…"
"General Ma, what do you think?"
Ma Teng sighed in his heart. He didn't expect Dong Luo to think so highly of Ma Chao.
"If the Prime Minister does not despise me, this one is willing to serve the Prime Minister.”
"Very good, open the prison carriage." Dong Luo immediately smiled.
Ma Teng wasn't actually old. He wasn't even 50 years old. It was just that his family was poor when he was young and he got married late.
"Ma Chao, there's something I need you for right now.”
Han Sui had died, Ma Teng had surrendered, and half of the 80,000-man army had been captured by Dong Luo. It was time to take over the entire Western Liang and the four prefectures west of the river.
Moreover, the Qiang and Han people there were mixed together, and the people were brave and good at fighting. In the future, they would definitely be Dong Luo's blade to pacify the world!
"I'll lead Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Zhang Liao, and Zhang Xiu with twenty thousand each to pacify Longyou, capture Jincheng, Wuwei, and the four prefectures west of the river.”
When Ma Chao heard this, he immediately knelt down and acknowledged the order." Yes, Ma Chao!”
Dong Luo nodded with a smile and then looked at Ma Teng." General Ma, please follow me back to Chang 'an. I will send someone to bring your families to Chang' an."”
"Thank you, Prime Minister." Ma Teng seemed to have accepted this fact.
Since Dong Luo had said so, he might not be treated badly in Chang 'an.
"After everything is done, everyone prepare. We will return in three days!”
After Dong Luo gave his instructions, he pulled Ma Teng and Ma Chao back." Let's go. Tell me about the Xiqiang."”
"Oh? The Prime Minister wants to plot against Xiqiang?"
Dong Luo nodded." Of course, I won't allow anyone to stab me in the back. It's fine if they submit, but if they don't, don't blame me for killing them all."”
Ma Teng immediately detected a trace of coldness in Dong Luo's tone.
"Prime Minister, there are countless Xiqiang tribes, and they are brave and good at fighting.”
Dong Luo smiled and stroked his chin." I was just making a casual remark. The old Prime Minister and the Qiang people have a good relationship. My Dong Clan has some reputation in Longxi. They probably won't rebel against me, right?"
"I don't think so. Dong…Although the old Prime Minister has passed away, Dong Huang is still around. If he is sent, the Qiang people will give him face. Then, the Prime Minister will give some benefits, and the Qiang people will naturally sell their lives for the Prime Minister.”
Ma Teng said as he walked behind Dong Luo.
As he spoke, Ma Teng was shocked.
He realized that Dong Luo's current strength could be considered the number one in the world!
It was because of Dong Zhuo that his reputation among the aristocrats was not very good.
However, he heard that Xun You of Yingchuan had already defected to him, and the famous Cai Yong also wanted to marry him.
" I see. Alright, we'll talk about it when we get back to Chang 'an. But the Qiang people are Qiang people after all. We still have to assimilate them into the Han people. Otherwise, those who are not of our race will definitely have different intentions."”
Dong Luo shook his head slightly as he spoke, then left with his sleeves flung.
Ma Teng looked at Dong Luo's back as he left, and his expression slowly changed.
Perhaps, if my Ma tribe wants to rise again, it will be on this person.
