Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In Chiyang and Gaolu, north of Chang'an, and along the northern defense line established along the Jingshui River, the gentry coalition forces here are now also experiencing a fierce attack by Han Sui's army.

    Across the river bank, various long-range weapons of the two armies, including ballistae, heavy crossbows, bows and arrows, were wreaking havoc back and forth. It was also extremely cruel!  Han Suijun repeatedly tried to take advantage of the opportunity to cross the river on wooden rafts, but he was always attacked head-on by the coalition forces.  The ballista, a defensive weapon, has now become the killer of Han Sui's army crossing the river.  Those wooden rafts that were rushed to cross the river would quickly fall apart after being hit by a few shots, turning into pieces of wood drifting on the river.

    Along the river, arrows rained down rapidly, and countless floating corpses of Han Sui's army who crossed the river were left on the river, drifting with the current. Han Sui's army suffered great losses!

    On the high platform by the river bank, Han Sui and his generals were constantly quarreling.

    "General! No way! We can't go on like this. In this kind of terrain, our army will suffer heavy casualties. How can we compete with Ma Teng again? These dead soldiers are the flesh and blood of our army!"

    "Cheng Yin! What are you talking about? If you don't attack hard now, are you waiting for Ma Teng's army to enter Chang'an and surrender before dealing with us? The current situation is that whoever enters Chang'an first is the king. If we wait for the eight armies to join forces, how can we still fight against us?  Can¡¯t you compare to the children of Ma Teng¡¯s family?¡±

    "Youyoubah! These dead soldiers are all our people. You don't feel bad for me, but I still feel bad for you. Is there no other way?"

    "What can you do? Tell me! The Jingshui River stretches for hundreds of miles, and there are enemy patrols everywhere. Where do you cross the river? Do you want to make a big detour and run hundreds of miles upstream?  By then Chang¡¯an will already have the surname Ma for several years!¡±

    ¡­¡­

    A group of people were arguing fiercely, but Han Sui was sitting among them, with a calm expression on his face, playing with a jade Ruyi in his hand.

    Suddenly, a sentry rider came galloping from a distance. When he got close, he dismounted and knelt down and said:

    "General! News came from the south. Yesterday, Ma Teng and Ma Chao's army completely defeated the Huaili Camp of the Allied Forces. They are now marching towards Chang'an day and night!"

    "What?" With a bang, the jade Ruyi in Han Sui's hand fell to the ground. The calmness he had just now disappeared, "Ma Tengjun! Have you already broken through the Huaili defense line?"

    The group of people around were immediately stunned!  The total number of Han Sui's coalition forces in the north reached 60,000, far exceeding the total number of 20,000 Ma Teng's army in the south, but Ma Teng's army broke through first!  what to do?  Do we really want to hand over Chang'an to Ma Teng?  If Ma Teng is allowed to obtain Chang'an City's property and military supplies, and his strength increases, thenthen what's the point of the coalition of tribes here?  A group of people couldn't help but look at Han Sui.

    Han Sui held it tightly in his hands, almost pinching himself to bleed.  He already knew Ma Teng very well after having dealt with him for more than ten years.  He knew that even though Ma Teng was calling him "old brother" and was very respectful, that was not because his prestige among the wealthy families in Xiliang was far greater than Ma Teng's!  You must know that when the two were fighting, Han Sui also killed Ma Teng's wife and son. The hatred between the two was as deep as the sea!

    "If he were allowed to enter Chang'an and become popular, his fate would be the consequences of betrayal and separation in the blink of an eye.  By that time Han Sui no longer dared to think about it any further.

    "Cross the river and march! No matter the cost! Get ahead of Ma Teng's army and take control of Chang'an!"

    Han Sui suddenly stood up, took off all the guise of a celebrity, exposed the veins on his neck, and shouted hysterically.

    Immediately, the entire coalition of Xiliang nobles squirmed quickly, and tens of thousands of people marched loudly. The young commanders in the team who originally lamented the heavy losses had to carry their heads and go into battle in person.  Under the urgent and fierce attack of the 60,000 Xiliang nobles coalition forces on the entire defense line at all costs, they finally broke through the Jingshui River in the afternoon, overwhelming the 10,000 gentry coalition forces on the defense line, and also suffered numerous casualties.

    However, the soldiers of Xiliang who suffered heavy losses had no time to stop and sort out the seizures in detail, so they had to rearrange their uniforms. Han Sui issued an order and hurriedly ordered his army to continue marching all the way south to Chang'an.  And go.

    Ma Teng and Han Sui, with a total of 70,000 to 80,000 troops, formed two huge arrows and quickly surrounded Chang'an from the north and south!

    Along the way, countless fleeing people were overtaken by soldiers from both armies, causing countless human tragedies. The entire area swept by the army left blood flowing like a river!

    One day later, Ma Chao, the vanguard of Ma Teng's army, crossed Fengshui, passed through Xianyang, and arrived outside Chang'an City first!

    At this time, the city of Chang'an was already in a state of panic.

    ¡­¡­

    "Hahaha! ThisIt¡¯s Chang¡¯an!  This is the place that my fathers and I have longed for!  "Ma Chao led Ma Dai, Ma Tiema, Xiu and other brothers, a short distance outside the city of Chang'an. He raised his whip and pointed at the city wall of Chang'an and said with great pride. On the city wall, the frightened city guards watched helplessly.  Seeing this group of cavalry snooping outside, they didn't dare to make any move. They just peeked down from the gaps between the battlements.

    "Is this Chang'an? It's so majestic and majestic. The height of the city wall alone is no less than ten meters high. It is made of giant blue bricks. It is worthy of being the first city in Guanzhong! But! Hey! Some are too dilapidated. Brother!  Is this city really filled with golden beauties that make people never want to leave once they see it?" Ma Tie, Ma Chao's half-brother, looked at his eldest brother with admiration.

    "Yeah! Not bad! Chang'an, there are mountains of jewels and gold, and countless beauties. From now on, they are all ours! Little brother! When we enter the city, brother, I will snatch seventeen or eight women from the noble clans for you.  I¡¯ll make you stay up all night until you can¡¯t stand up again! Hahahahaha!¡±

    Ma Chao laughed wildly on his horse, looking at Chang'an City in front of him, as if he were seeing the most beautiful woman in the world, with passion as hot as fire shooting out of his eyes!

    ¡­¡­

    Behind the crowd, the cavalry scouts explored around Chang'an City, looking for damaged and dilapidated places on the city wall to find the best wall for the next siege.

    And the soldiers of Ma Tengjun, holding swords in their hands, drove away countless crying poor people, and worked overtime to make countless sand bags.  And tomorrow, these sand and earth bags they made with their own hands will become their own soul-locking evil spirits. They will carry them and rush towards the city wall, brave all kinds of attacks on the city wall, and fill them with human lives and sand and earth bags.  The moat opened up a path for the siege troops advancing from behind.

    Farther away, the craftsmen in Ma Teng's army were busy cutting down wood and making things such as ladders and carts.  For use by siege troops.  A large number of soldiers are resting in the camp, and tomorrow morning they will use this simple tool to attack the city by force!

    In the eyes of Ma Teng's soldiers, who are now in great power, the tall and solid Chang'an City is just a fence blocking the way to the most important fortune in life. Step over it and hold everything in your hands!  Endless greed and lust have already completely overwhelmed reason!  (To be continued.
