Chapter 286
"Brother, how could you make such a decision? Wouldn't this put my uncle in danger?" When he heard that Ma Chao was going to lead his army to attack Chang'an, Ma Dai was shocked and quickly dissuaded him.

But Ma Chao said with a smile: "Brother, you don't know. Your uncle is Liu He's father-in-law. With this status, as long as Liu He is not in Chang'an, no one will dare to touch the old man. Besides, this time the soldiers are in Chang'an. , we can take the opportunity to force Chang'an Guard General Zhong Yao to release his father, so that when his father returns to the camp, we will no longer be hindered, wouldn't it be a good thing?"

"If that's the case, it makes sense, but brother, Liu He is actually pretty good. We might as well surrender to him..."

"Shut up!" Ma Chao's face changed immediately when he heard the words, and he shouted sharply: "Ma Dai, do you know why your uncle would rather lose his freedom and go to Chang'an? Isn't it for this inheritance? Now my father has given this inheritance to me. I walk on thin ice every day, only thinking about how to keep and grow this foundation, how can I casually hand over this foundation to others?"

After training Ma Dai, Ma Chao patted Ma Dai on the shoulder lightly, and said, "Brother, you are still young, you can't see through many people and things, and you don't know Liu He's treachery and cunning at all. Don't be fooled by his appearance."

"Brother, I understand." Although Ma Dai still wanted to ask why so many people turned to Liu He like a tide, why couldn't they see Liu He's cunningness, but seeing the anger on Ma Chao's face, he finally didn't If I ask again, I have to bury this doubt in my heart.

Later, Ma Chao and Han Sui announced at the same time that the two sides had formally formed an alliance, with Ma Chao as the commander and Han Sui as the mastermind, commanding a [-]-strong army to go to Chang'an in a mighty manner.

Ma Chao and Han Sui merged into a road with a large number of people and strong morale. Naturally, this road was overwhelming and invincible, and they soon came to Youfufeng.

Zhao Yan, a strategist under Liu He, was in charge of guarding Youfufeng. When he heard that Ma Chao and Han Sui had merged together and were approaching Youfufeng, Zhao Yan knew that there was no chance of winning. Chang'an, and notified the Chang'an guard, Jing Zhaoyin, and Shi Zhongxu, the chief of Sili Xiaowei's mansion, as soon as possible.

In fact, even if you include the various troops led by Governor Zhao Yan, there are only more than [-] soldiers in Chang'an at this time. Even if you add in the private soldiers from all the civil and military mansions under Liu He, there are only more than [-] people. Think about it. It was really difficult to defend Ma Chao's attack of a hundred thousand troops. Fortunately, Liu He also made some preparations for this, so most of the people left behind in Chang'an were elites, plus Qiao Rui, Huang Shao, Gong Du and others. People who can lead troops to fight, although due to limited abilities, do not fight much now, there is still no problem in leading troops to defend the city. Therefore, in this case, everyone was mobilized and stood at the top of the city. Prepare to defend.

"Hey, I haven't fought wars for a long time, but it doesn't mean I won't fight anymore. Let these thieves see how powerful I am today, and I will definitely let them die." Gong Du is now just an ordinary Captain, and he was promoted by his qualifications, but he is really excited now, clapping his hands and saying.

"Haha, what Brother Gong is saying is, don't think that if we don't fight, it means we won't fight. I think I was among the ten thousand armies, and I can still take the head of the general... the personal soldier." Huang Shao His status was similar to Gong's, but he was not far behind, and immediately agreed.

However, Qiao Rui sneered and said, "Hey, Huang Shao, don't brag, it's useless. When you're on the battlefield, see who kills the most bandits." Seeing Gong Du and Huang Shao talking happily, Qiao Rui on the side, Couldn't help but interrupted.

Ever since Erqiao married Liu He, Qiao Rui had found an idle civil servant for himself, and he had long since stopped leading soldiers to fight, but in private he was willing to hang out with these ordinary mid-level and lower-level military officers, so he had no scruples about speaking. After listening to Gong Du and Huang Shao couldn't help but speak.

"Well, old man, we are inferior to you in terms of status and respect, but we may not be inferior to you old man in terms of fighting on the battlefield. Just wait and see, our brothers will definitely not lose to you in this battle."

When Huang Shao heard this, he was completely dissatisfied and immediately started to argue.

Gong Du also nodded, his face full of dissatisfaction.

"Are you not convinced? Boy, as soon as I get on the battlefield, I will let you see what it means to have a sword that never grows old. No, I am not old yet. I am only over forty years old. I am just a middle-aged man. Anyway, no matter what, I I'm a little older than you, but when it comes to combat, you can't keep up."

Qiao Rui laughed loudly, fully clothed, led his subordinates to the top of the city, and then said loudly: "My sons, you are all my veterans. You have been with me for more than ten years. You are a popular drinker on weekdays." It's just spicy, but it takes a thousand days to raise an army, and it takes a while to use it. Today is the time for you to show off. Today, you must show the style of our Runan warriors in front of the world. Don't show your coward and embarrass me!"

"Haha, don't worry, general, we must live up to the name of the elite, let them see the majesty of us veterans!"

All the soldiers laughed, thinking that Qiao Rui had made a promise.

After a short time, only the rumble of horseshoes was heard, and the army led by Ma Chao swept in, and soon surrounded Chang'an City like an iron barrel.

I saw Ma Chao shouting loudly from the top of the wall: "Listen, people on the top of the wall, Liu He was killed by me when he was fighting outside, and now Chang'an has no owner. Can you see my army? Tell me quickly Quickly open the city and surrender to avoid your death, I can tell you that you only have this chance to pray for your life, if you miss it, you will regret it in the future."

At this time, I saw Qiao Rui on the top of the wall scolding loudly: "Hey, Ma Chao, you not only betrayed your trust and colluded with Han Sui to plot my Chang'an, but also fabricated the news that my lord was killed in battle. You are as shameless as you are!" Shameless, stop talking nonsense, I don’t have a single person who is afraid of death, if you have the ability, you can break through the city, kill us all, and want us to surrender, it’s just a dream!”

Ma Chao laughed loudly when he heard this and said, "Who am I? It turns out to be old Qiao Rui. You are here to show your loyalty because your daughter is pretty and able to serve Liu He? But you don't want to think about it." , you can get Liu He's favor, what about other people? Can they also get the same treatment? It's okay if you don't surrender, because you usually get benefits from Liu He, but others don't get any benefits. Now life and death In the lead, why did they sacrifice their lives for you?"

But I saw the soldiers on the top of the city laughing together, and then someone said sarcastically: "How do you know we didn't get any benefits? The benefits we got are far beyond what the soldiers under your command can get."

"That's right, we have received a lot of favors from the lord on weekdays, and now that we are in danger, we naturally have to resist to the end and swear to the death."

"Exactly, we are all good men who will repay our kindness, but unlike some people, when we were hostages in Chang'an, we were considered to have received a lot of favor from our lord, but we didn't expect that we were unfamiliar wolves. Come and bite..."

The soldiers spoke sarcasm one after another, and were so angry that they wanted to vomit blood, they shouted loudly: "Give me an order to attack the city immediately, and after the city is broken, all such lifeless things must be slaughtered!"
