Chapter 25: The Leader of the Bandits

  Madin is a collateral branch of the Ma family, although in the eyes of the Ma family, the status of the collateral branch is not high. However, Madin has never forgotten that he is a member of the Ma family and takes pride in it. This time, Yang Chengfeng led the Tianlang Army to annihilate the Ma family army, occupy the Ma family pasture, and slaughter all the direct descendants of the Ma family. Madin was furious and decided to take revenge on Yang Chengfeng. To this end, he obtained the support of several nomadic tribes on the Narati grassland with his identity as a member of the Ma family, forming a cavalry corps of 5,000 people to confront Yang Chengfeng's Tianlang Army.

  However, the clever him knew that his 5,000 cavalry were no match for Yang Chengfeng's Tianlang Army, so he sent someone to contact several other tribes on the Narati Grassland and the aristocratic families of Wuwei and Majia who had a good relationship with him, hoping to get their support.

  In Martindale's opinion, with the status of Ma family in Wuwei, the aristocratic families in Wuwei will definitely support him. At that time, it is not impossible to form an army of one million people, as long as he can defeat Yang Chengfeng, he will be the master of the Ma family, and at that time, who in Wuwei dare not listen to his words?

  "Any news from the horse head?" It's been a day, and there's still no word from those powerful tribes that went to Narati Grassland. This made Martindin furious.

  "Yes, sir. There is still no news so far." Ma Tou said cautiously, as someone who grew up with Martin Ding, he was very familiar with Martin Ding's temper and knew what kind of person Martin Ding was. Although Martin Ding was extremely intelligent, he was also extremely arrogant and looked down on others.

  "What's going on? It's been a whole day. How can there be no news? What are these people living on?" Martin shouted.

  Ma Tou looked at Martin Ding for a moment, wanting to speak but hesitating.

  "What did you want to say?" Martin asked.

  "Old master, what if those tribes don't want to unite with us!" Ma Tou was pessimistic about Martindale's decision to rise up in opposition to Yang Chengfeng. Now that Yang Chengfeng had just defeated the Mongols and eliminated the elite forces of the Ma family army, his Heavenly Wolf Army had a strength of 100,000 men, while Martindale's 5,000 ragtag troops were no match for him.

  "What? If it weren't for our Ma family helping them all these years, could they have survived on the Narati Grassland? These ungrateful wretches, just watch me deal with them." Martindale said in anger.

  Ma's head couldn't help but roll his eyes, didn't this old master know that the current Ma family was no longer the Ma family of the past? The Ma family army had been destroyed, the Ma family pasture had been occupied, this was something that had never happened to the Ma family in a thousand years, the prestige of the Ma family had fallen to its lowest point. Which tribe on the Narati grassland wasn't a shrewd person? For them, the Ma family was just an umbrella for protection, once the Ma family collapsed, they could seek another protector.

  "Mahou, pass on my orders, assemble the troops, I want to teach those people a lesson." Martindin turned his head and instructed Mahou.

  "But, sir, we only have 5,000 cavalrymen. If they unite, we might be completely defeated! And by doing this, aren't we just pushing them into Yang Chengfeng's hands?" Ma Tou was not stupid, on the contrary, he was very clever and could clearly see the current situation.

  Martin was taken aback and asked, "What you said is not wrong, each of their tribes has at least 5,000 cavalry. If they unite to come, our forces are not their match at all. What should we do now? Can't just let them be like this? Yang Chengfeng is not a casual person, he won't give us much time to prepare, his Tianlang Army of 100,000 can come and destroy us at any time."

  "Old master, it's actually not difficult to get those tribes to send troops. As long as they understand that Yang Chengfeng is a threat to them in Wuwei, that will be enough." Ma Tou said.

  "What does it mean? Speak clearly."

  "The world is full of people seeking profit, for the tribes on the grasslands, the grasslands and cattle are their most precious things. If someone tries to take away their grasslands and cattle, they will go crazy like wolves on the grasslands and bite them to death. Now that Yang Chengfeng has occupied Majia Pasture, he has taken it as his own, revealing his greed. We just need to spread the news that Yang Chengfeng is not satisfied with the large tracts of grasslands in Majia Pasture and wants to occupy the entire Narati Grassland. Then those tribes on the Narati Grassland will automatically come to us, and at that time, we can use them to form an army of 100,000 elite iron cavalry and fight a decisive battle with Yang Chengfeng." Ma Tou's cold smile.

  "Alright, great idea! I'll leave this matter to you." Martin exclaimed in surprise.

  "In addition, we can also let the several aristocratic families in Wuwei City give Yang Chengfeng trouble, diverting Yang Chengfeng's attention. The original six aristocratic families in Wuwei City were under our Ma family's control, although the main line of the Ma family has been killed now, but with the prestige of the Ma family, we can still let four of the aristocratic families continue to serve our Ma family. And among these four aristocratic families, there are more than 10,000 private soldiers. Hmph, as long as they can create trouble in Wuwei, Yang Chengfeng will definitely suffer heavy losses without preparation. At that time, our 100,000 iron cavalry will divide into two routes to attack the Ma family's pasture and Wuwei, so the entire Wuwei will be under your control, sir." Ma Tou continued to say.

  "Good, good, good, I didn't expect you, Ma Tou, to have such skills." Ma Dingding praised.

  A mysterious smile spread across Ma's face as a figure flashed through his mind.

  ……

  After learning of the rebellion on the Nalat Grassland, Lei Meng hastily arrived at the ranch and asked Yang Chengfeng: "Your Highness, how will you deal with Ma Dingding's rebellion?"

  "Don't worry, Lord Lei, Martin's matter is not worth worrying about." Yang Chengfeng looked up and asked, "Is Lord Lei here specifically for Martin's sake?"

  "No, Your Highness, I still have something important to report to you."

  "What's wrong?" Yang Chengfeng asked.

  "Recently, more than half of the officials in Wuwei have left, and the government office is in a state of semi-paralysis. If this is not resolved, the government office will not be able to function normally." said Lei Meng.

  "What's going on? How can such a situation occur?" Yang Chengfeng exclaimed in shock. This is no small problem, if it's really like Lei Meng said, the entire Wuwei would be in a state of anarchy.

  "Is it...?" Lei Meng glanced at Yang Chengfeng and carefully said: "It's because of the Ma family matter, 70% of the officials in Wuwei have a relationship with the Ma family, so..."
