The 11th Chapter: Cutting Down Five Generals Ma Chao's Fame Shaken, Ma Teng's Cavalry Array Defeated

  Li Kan and Cheng Yi obviously didn't believe Ma Fu's words, the two generals mustered up their courage and went forward together. However, another stunning scene unfolded as Li Kan, Cheng Yi, and Ma Fu were defeated in less than three rounds and went to meet King Yan.

  Han Jie successively lost three generals Li Kan, Cheng Yi and Ma Wan, and was suddenly frightened.

  But just as he hesitated whether to temporarily avoid the edge, Hou Xuan and Zhang Heng had already killed their way towards Ma Fu.

  Na Hou Xuan swung his twin hammers, his eyes filled with bloodshot, vowing to kill Ma Fu to avenge his brother.

  Erna Zhang stared at Ma Fu with his eyes fixed on him, gritting his teeth, and was also full of murderous intent.

  The groom shook his head helplessly, these two guys were obviously here to die.

  The iron hammer flew left and right, the long spear danced up and down, while the groom was calm and composed.

  After accompanying them for a dozen rounds or so, the groom suddenly let out a loud shout, and before he even drew his gun, he had already scared Hou Xuan and Zhang Heng half to death.

  Han Sui feared that Ai would suffer a loss, so he hastily dispatched Liang Xing and Yang Qiu to respond. However, just as the two of them were about to gallop away on horseback, Ma Fu made a fake move with his spear and directly pierced Hou Xuan's heart.

  Zhang Heng saw this and directly jumped up from his horseback, using all his strength to stab the groom.

  The groom suddenly turned his body, pulled back the horse's head, and counter-stabbed with a spear, directly taking Zhang Heng's life.

  Han Sui was frightened and hastily called back Liang Xing and Yang Qiu.

  Cheng Gongying was completely disrupted by the appearance of Ma Chao's cavalry, and he hastily said to Han Sui: "General, don't panic, we must hold our ground! We still have our cavalry array."

  At this time, Han Sui's army was in great disarray, while Ma Teng's army had greatly increased morale, with shouts that were like a continuous mountain range.

  Pongde was also shocked and stunned. He indeed knew that Mahfu's hands were good, but he didn't think his power would be so astonishing.

  Ma Teng still had a worried look on his face and said solemnly to Pang De: "This victory is no different from a great defeat!"

  Pong De comforted him, saying: "General, do not worry too much. I think Ma Chao has no ulterior motives. As long as the general treats him kindly, he will definitely be loyal to the general. Moreover, his relationship with the young general is very close, and it's unlikely that he would turn against us."

  Ma Teng said with a somewhat relaxed tone: "I hope so, I hope so!"

  "Raising a young colt, today I'll let you witness the might of my cavalry formation!" Just as the groom was about to return to the army, Cheng Gongying suddenly rode out of line and, in front of tens of thousands of soldiers, thoroughly humiliated this fierce general.

  The groom turned his head and glanced at the man, only to see that he had a clear face, dragon eyebrows and phoenix eyes, looking quite spirited.

  "What? If I want to leave, even the king of heaven can't stop me. Who are you to try?"

  Cheng Gongying was so despised that he became furious and said: "I, Cheng Gongying, won't let you go, you can forget about leaving this place half a step!"

  "Oh?"

  The groom thought he was just intimidating himself and didn't take it to heart. ?? Tiger leopard riding 11

  But when two teams of cavalry charged towards him with spears and halberds drawn, he finally believed that for the time being, he really couldn't escape.

  Han Sui and Ma Teng first fought, Ma Fu had already seen the ferocity of this cavalry formation. Now let him fight alone against hundreds of elite cavalrymen, which is not an easy task.

  Pang De hastened to say to Ma Teng: "General, shouldn't we send out cavalry to assist Ma Chao?"

  Ma Teng neither assented nor dissented, and this terrifying attitude allowed Pang De to subtly grasp his intentions.

  Xiao Ma Chao also knew that his master was in a precarious situation at this time, and hastily said: "Father, send our elite cavalry to help Master!"

  Ma Teng glared and said: "Don't be reckless, your father has his own ideas. Be careful with your wound, don't move around!"

  Seeing his father suddenly get angry, Xiao Ma Chao had no choice but to pout and continue watching.

  At this time, Ma Fu was surrounded like an iron tube, and the situation was extremely critical. However, he did not become disorganized or lose his footing because of it.

  Taking a deep breath, the horseman shouted to his mount on the bloody road: "The ocean of blood, whether we live or die, depends on you, brother!"

  That blood-curdling scream was quite human-like, echoing through the clouds with several consecutive cries.

  Before the heavy cavalry could compress their activity range, Ma Fu urged his horse to jump and kill one corner. After cutting off several horses, they still didn't see any signs of relaxation.

  "You're asking for trouble!"

  The cavalry fought hard, but the heavy cavalry was like a mountain of waves pressing down on this corner.

  Look at the other side, the groom hurriedly turned the horse's head and killed it directly. However, what he did not expect was that several long spears were directly hooked towards the blood-soaked front legs.

  In this crisis, he exerted himself and jumped out of the way, narrowly avoiding a blow. The groom took advantage of the situation and cut off their heads.

  "Ximen!"

  Only then did Cheng Gongying let out a loud shout, and the western cavalry suddenly increased in number. After a moment of tacit understanding, Ma Fu hastily broke through from the east.

  At first glance, there were fewer cavalrymen on the east side, but as soon as they clashed, the horsemen found that their combat effectiveness had a steadily increasing trend.

  "The North Gate!"

  The groom is in a fierce battle, and that Cheng Gongying issued such an order. He decided not to fall for it this time, charging directly northward, but this seemed to be another trap.

  The northern troops were numerous, and although their combat strength was weak, the coordination between cavalry and infantry was seamless. The horsemen used all their ultimate moves, but only managed to eliminate three to five riders.

  Seeing the north face was difficult to attack, Ma Fu directly came to the south face, at this time Cheng Gong Ying was facing him.

  "Dongmen!"

  It was this crisp and clear voice again, a voice that, although only two words, continued to disturb the coachman's mind.

  "Capture the leader first! Cheng Gongying, today I'll make you look good!"

  The groom suddenly flashed this idea in his mind, he frowned and made a great effort to kill Cheng Gongying.

  The cavalry saw that the situation was unfavorable and hastily gathered towards the south gate. At this time, Cheng Gongying also became stupid, looking at the horseman's hand rising and falling, the bloody scene of flesh and blood flying everywhere, he really felt his liver and gallbladder bursting apart.

  In just a few dozen steps, the horseman could have taken his head off, and Cheng Gongying didn't dare to stay in that place for long, so he hurried back to the army.

  The groom saw the opportunity was ripe and shouted: "If we don't send out troops now, when will we?"

  Na Ma Teng suddenly reacted upon hearing this. Although his heart was filled with conflicting emotions at the moment, this was a rare opportunity that came once in a thousand years.

  Although fatty meat is greasy, it's also mouth-watering just by looking at it.

  No more hesitation, Ma Teng drew his treasured sword and ordered the entire army to charge into battle.

  The cavalry formation was suddenly attacked from the rear and immediately became chaotic. Ma Chao took advantage of the situation to kill Han Shui, who was in the midst of a million soldiers, yet seemed to be in a state of no man's land.

  Han Sui saw Ma Chao's vanguard approaching and hastily sounded the gong to recall his troops, but it was too late. Han Sui's soldiers killed each other in large numbers.

  After a series of fierce battles, Han Sui's army retreated dozens of miles, suffering heavy casualties, and was severely wounded. Ma Teng originally wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue the attack, but suddenly there were soldiers who came to report that Hu Zhi and Yang Ding had taken advantage of Ma Teng's absence to easily seize Wuwei City!

  Niu Chou and Yang Ding were also famous and influential heroes in Liangzhou, who treated their soldiers well and gained the hearts of many. This time they came to fight against Han Sui, Ma Teng had invited them together, but both of them declined with excuses of personal affairs.

  Ma Teng originally thought they were afraid of offending Han Sui, but who would have thought that they had such a sinister plot.

  The old nest has been occupied by others, where does Ma Teng have the heart to continue fighting?

  He had originally wanted to withdraw his troops directly, but he was not willing to let the fruits of victory that he had worked so hard for turn into nothing. So he made a bold decision and left 1,000 soldiers with Ma Fu, ordering them to garrison in Anxi and wait for the Grand Chancellor's army to arrive. He also promised Ma Fu that after he returned to Western Liang and seized Wuwei, he would petition the Emperor to appoint him as the Governor of Anxi.

  It's come to this point, Ma Teng still believes that Dong Zhuo will definitely send a large army.

  Logically speaking, in this battle of pacifying Yi, the first achievement belongs to Ma Chao, but Ma Teng's reward for him is truly insignificant.

  Of course, in order to avoid being criticized for unclear rewards and punishments, Ma Teng specially praised Ma Fu in front of the whole army.

  Looking at Ma Teng's smiling face, Ma Fu felt an extremely strong sense of hatred towards him. As a warrior who had always fought in blood and fire, he was being treated so unfairly for the first time.

  Taking a deep breath, Ma Fu rushed to Ma Teng and laughed: "Thanks to the general's promotion, I'm just a horse keeper, coincidentally became the teacher of General Shao, now Han Xi is defeated, and Hu Zhen and Yang Ding are definitely not the general's opponents. And I've always been casual, indeed not suitable for leading the army or being an official, so let's part ways with the general from now on!"

  Everyone was in an uproar upon hearing this, and Xiao Ma Chao cried even more sorrowfully. He grasped Ma Teng's arm tightly and said, "Father, you absolutely cannot let Shifu leave!"

  Jian Ma Teng did not respond, and Xiao Ma Chao ran in front of Master Ma again, saying: "Master, you can't abandon your disciple and leave, can you?"

  The groom looked at Xiao Ma Chao with a serious face and said, "What's the point of crying for a man? There is no banquet in the world that doesn't disperse! You should be strong, and you will definitely become a pillar of the country in the future."

  The little horse was taken aback at first, but still sobbed incessantly.

  Pang De was also anxious at this time, like an ant on a hot pot. At this moment of using people, regardless of whether Ma Teng trusted Ma Fu or not, Pang De did not want him to leave.

  Ma Teng, who had been silent all along, suddenly walked up to Ma Fu and whispered a sentence in his ear. Ma Fu's heart sank after hearing it, but he didn't respond immediately.

  But Ma Teng seemed very confident and said loudly: "Now the country is in trouble, Xiliang is also a time to use people, please think thrice!"

  Ma Fu's sword eyebrows slightly curved, and he smiled somewhat awkwardly: "Then I'll try to see if I can handle it. If I'm not up to the task, please replace me with someone else immediately, General."

  Ma Teng patted his shoulder and said with a somewhat dazed expression: "You can definitely do it!"

  After Ma Teng carefully selected a thousand soldiers for Ma Chao, he hastily led Pang De and Little Ma Chao to Wuwei.

  Xiao Ma wanted to stay behind, but Ma Teng refused to let him go.

  Looking at these thousand soldiers with no fighting spirit and vitality, Ma Fu was truly speechless.

  However, if he wants to get what he's interested in, this An Yi city, he still has to guard.

  The former governor An Yi was a thorough opportunist. After learning of Ma Teng's defeat by Han Sui, he immediately surrendered to his former master again.

  Without much ado, after Ma Fu led his army to garrison Anyi City, the first thing he did as the acting magistrate of Anyi was to expel the former magistrate of Anyi from the city. He didn't kill him directly because the former magistrate had been kind to the people and left himself a way out.
