The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 582
There was a panic in Wuzhi City. Although Ma Teng sent generals to suppress it, the defenders of Wuzhi City were still restless.

The [-] army was wiped out overnight. Just the day before, the news came that the Yellow Turban Army was retreating steadily. They were gradually regaining their lost ground and preparing to attack Gaoping City.

But in the middle of the night, quite a few rout soldiers began to shout at the gate, begging the defenders of Wuzhi City to let go of the gate.

Then Ma Teng also fled from the north to Wuzhi City in a hurry. The Wuzhi City that arrived with Ma Teng was a broken army that had already broken up and fled first. They met Ma Teng on the road and were gathered again by Ma Teng.

Along the way, Ma Teng also recruited more than [-] people.

With Ma Teng's arrival, everyone has a backbone in their hearts. The defenders of Wuzhi City obeyed the order and opened the city gate, letting Ma Teng and a group of defeated soldiers return to the city.

When the rout entered the city, even if Ma Teng had ordered not to talk about the war, he couldn't stand up to the speculations in everyone's mind, let alone private conversations and rumors.

Because of this, people in Wuzhi City were panic-stricken, and the [-] defenders who stayed behind Wuzhi City could not sleep peacefully. The generals of Wuzhi City also went to meet Ma Teng.

When they heard the news of the disastrous defeat in the Battle of Gaopingchuan from Ma Teng's mouth, the generals, even though they had experienced hundreds of battles, couldn't help but panic.

One hundred thousand troops can't hold back the Yellow Turban Army led by Xu An, how can Wuzhi City, which is guarded by only three thousand people, can survive, even if there are more than one thousand defeated soldiers who fled all the way with Ma Teng, There are only more than [-] people at full count.

But those thousand defeated soldiers had already lost their fighting spirit and all their fighting spirit. Their eyes and faces were full of horror, as if they had seen something terrible.

Some people muttered about demons and sorcery, others muttered about ghosts, strange and strange events, which made people feel chills in their hearts.

According to them, what they faced was not an army of mortals, but an army of ghosts and demons.

The Yellow Turban Army can only maintain their human form when they are suppressed by the sun during the day, but they will turn into beasts or demons at night, with infinite power and terror. The Fu Zhu among the Yellow Turban Army can even use black magic.

It was even rumored that this time the battle of Gaopingchuan was done by Xu An himself, and he attracted the heavenly soldiers and generals to kill the enemy together with the Yellow Turban Army.

The soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army were not afraid of death at all. They were not on the ground, but in the sky. Thousands of heavenly soldiers gathered together like a sea of ​​fire. Neither bows nor swords could harm them.

When the Heavenly Soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army arrived, they were accompanied by ear-piercing screams and howling wind.

I don't know where the rumors started to spread. When Ma Teng found out that the situation was serious, there was no way to suppress it.

Fear spread like a poisonous weed. No one in the Wuzhi City defenders could sit still. Some people even began to gather and approached the mansion where Ma Teng was. A war was imminent.

Ma Chao fell into the enemy's line, and all fifty thousand troops were lost in Gaopingchuan, which already made Ma Teng feel extremely hopeless, and the current changes in Wuzhi City aroused Ma Teng's anger even more.

"Take the sword!"

Ma Teng's eyes were wide open, and he glared at the generals in the government office. Since the generals under his command couldn't suppress them, he would personally suppress them.

He was able to climb up to his current position, and even fight against Han Sui, not because of compromising, not because of some illusory prestige.

Maybe it's because he's been silent for too long, or maybe he's been a general for too long and hasn't personally charged into battle. Many people have forgotten how he got his achievements in the first place.

Looking at the furious Ma Teng, the generals of Wuzhi City once again recalled Ma Teng's power in the past. They all lowered their heads and faced Ma Teng with great respect.

The fear and respect for Ma Teng allowed them to sweep away the rumors and the haze brought about by the defeat.

Ma Teng's ferocious eyes scanned the mansion, and then, holding the sword at his waist, he strode out. Behind him, all the soldiers and generals followed Ma Teng out.

At this time, there was a commotion outside the Wuzhi City Mansion, and a large number of soldiers were besieged outside the mansion, but none of them had the intention of entering the mansion. There were only a hundred or so soldiers guarding the mansion. The Liangzhou soldiers were determined to attack the government, but they couldn't stop them no matter what.

However, although they were terrified, they still retained some rationality. They just stood outside the government office and discussed in a low voice, but the discussions of hundreds of people gathered together, which naturally seemed extremely noisy.

The gate of the government office opened, and all the soldiers outside the government office saw Ma Teng's figure.

"See General."

Scattered voices came out, and a group of soldiers from outside the government office saluted Ma Teng unevenly.

Looking at the soldiers saluting, Ma Teng's expression softened slightly, and most of the anger that had been rising had dissipated.

After calming down, he also knew the reason why these soldiers gathered.

The news of the defeat on the front line could not be concealed at all, and it was finally known by everyone.

The way forward was cut off, and these soldiers were panicked. They came to the government office not to surround him, but to let him lead them to a way out.

The noise stopped, and Ma Teng looked at the bewildered faces outside the government office, feeling a sense of sadness in his heart.

Once the [-] army was wiped out, Beidi County and Anding County were lost, and now only Hanyang County and Wudu County can be relied on.

With only the land of two counties, he can only pull up more than [-] people at most.

But fighting is not just based on numbers. In the first battle of Gao Pingchuan, he buried most of the elite under his command, and now most of the soldiers left behind in the two counties are of ordinary combat strength.

The elites of this battle were completely lost, and those Qiang people who were willing to follow him may also have a different heart...

In the Battle of Gaopingchuan, Han Sui definitely escaped from birth. The main cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army was all directed at him. It is impossible for Han Sui to be left behind by the ordinary cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army.

Ma Teng sneered at Han Sui in many ways, but he had to admire Han Sui's ability to protect himself.

Han Sui is different from him. The [-] cavalry that Han Sui brought this time can only be regarded as the backbone. Han Sui has tens of thousands of troops, and [-] casualties. too deadly.

Han Sui was capricious and broke his promise many times. Beigong Boyu, Li Wenhou, Bian Zhang, Wang Guo and others all died in his hands.

When Chencang was defeated, the kingdom was killed by Han Sui, and most of its power was annexed by Han Sui.

Now that Gao Pingchuan has suffered a disastrous defeat, their defeat was even worse than Chen Cang's. Ma Teng knew very well that Han Sui would never let go of such a golden opportunity. I am afraid that Han Sui has already started plotting secretly...
