Chapter 541 Taiyuan
Malone had a nightmare.

Back to the time when Xuchang farmed fields.

Surrounded by skinny "green cows", and the scene of Sui Shisan desperately stuffing soil into his mouth when he was dying.

Memories and dreams overlapped, breaking out in a cold sweat.

It was the darkest and most miserable experience of his life.

After waking up, the sky is already bright, and the spring breeze brings the unique freshness of the soil.

He couldn't help but look to the west.

Feng Sa's battle deeply shocked the hearts of the world.

Since the rise of Sima Yi, the Sima family has fought north and south, and except for the defeat at the hands of Zhuge Wuhou, all opponents have been destroyed.

Strictly speaking, Sima Shi and Sima Zhao are both Yu Hui who inherited Sima Yi.

Afterwards, Guanqiu Jian and Zhuge Dan were destroyed one after another, Soochow was defeated, Shu was defeated, and the Sima family was in full swing.

Seeing that he was about to take the last step, he did not expect to be defeated by Feng Yi.

The 16 Chinese army was defeated by the [-] Liang army...

As a result, the pattern of the world changed, and the momentum of the Sima family's prosperity was forcibly suppressed.

The struggle between things is almost a foregone conclusion.

With the nightmare of last night, Ma Long had a natural estrangement towards Sima Shi.

The fiasco of his benefactor, Guan Qiujian, made him unable to integrate into the Sima family even more.

The same is true in Bingzhou, Ma Long has been squeezed out by Shi Jian.

Most of the credit he made was replaced by him.

The upward momentum of the Sima family was interrupted, and the next step was to fall.

The people are already in dire straits, and it is foreseeable how miserable the Central Plains will be in the future.

"General, a secret envoy has arrived from the north and has entered the city!" The soldiers came to report.

Ma Long was taken aback. In the past, the secret envoys from the north would wait outside the city if they wanted to see him, but this time his subordinates let him in directly, which shows their thoughts.

This is not surprising.

In the battle of Feng Sa, Sima Zhao was defeated, and no one wanted to meet the Liang army again.

Moreover, the Liang army has continued to infiltrate in the past two years, and storytellers have appeared in Langdiao City. The soldiers are not grass and trees, and they also have love and hatred.

The soldiers who were born at the bottom naturally preferred Yang Zheng who was born at the bottom.

In fact, Ma Long, who came from a poor family, was also partial to Yang Zheng, but Sima Zhao was captured but not killed, which made him unable to bear betrayal, and there was always a hurdle in his heart.

"Bring him to me!" Malone couldn't reverse the turbulent undercurrent in his heart.

Perhaps this is the general trend of the world.

Not long after, a secret envoy dressed in black was brought in.

"I wonder what General Ma is thinking?" Sun Yang lifted his cloak, revealing a pair of shining eyes.

This person is a typical cool person, capable, aggressive, and sharp as a knife, like a wild wolf in the wilderness, after setting his sights on the target, he never gives up.

I haven't seen him for more than half a year, but Sun Yang's momentum has become more restrained.

And this kind of introversion is out of absolute self-confidence!
"You have arranged for two years, and it seems that there is no shortage of someone!" Malone didn't answer directly.

"If you are thirsty for talents, you would rather not take Taiyuan than lose Ma Xiaoxing!" Sun Yang said in a deep voice.

Ma Long looked at Sun Yang in shock.

Sun Yang's face remained unchanged, his eyes were full of sincerity, "With the talents of a general, he will become an important weapon of the country in the future, but it is a pity that the Sima family will never use it. One life, one autumn of grass and trees, the king has the intention of sweeping the world and annexing the eight wildernesses The heart is just when employing people, the world's virtuous and talented, do not ask about their backgrounds, only their talents are promoted, what doubts do you have, the general?"

The tone of a secret envoy is also so domineering.

Shocking, but also frustrating!

Liangzhou is no longer the Liangzhou it used to be.

Although the news of Shu's surrender has not yet come, Ma Long believes that Shu will eventually be acquired by Liangzhou.

"Since this is the case, Long is willing to submit to Liangzhou, but there is only one request. I wonder if Yang Junhou can agree." Ma Long no longer declined.

In fact, he also knew that the iron cavalry of the Liang Army in Yanmen County were really going south in a big way, and the troops in his hands couldn't resist it at all.

And his subordinates were unwilling to resist.

"It's okay, General!"

"In the Shouchun War, General Wen and I had nowhere to go. It was the prime minister who surrendered us regardless of the previous suspicions. Although he is not used for me, I can't confront him with swords. If I return to Liangzhou, I will not fight with the Central Plains. Soldiers fighting!" Ma Long stared at Sun Yang and said.

Sun Yang smiled wryly and said, "The reason why Sima Zhao took you in is to break the morale of Shouchun's army."

Ma Long also knew that his request was a bit harsh, but he really didn't want to fight with his motherland anymore, after all, he was also from the Central Plains, "Even so, after all, I have the grace of life, and I can't repay it, but I will repay it with revenge, and a man can't do it! "

"The general is indeed loyal, I promise the general on behalf of the prince!" Sun Yang said.

The agreement was too easy, but it made Malone a little suspicious, "You can decide such a big matter?"

Sun Yang said with a smile: "Your Majesty has already entrusted Mr. Wei and me with the matter of merging the state, as long as it is for Liangzhou, why not?"

If you don't fight with the Central Plains, you still have Soochow, Mobei, and the Western Regions...

Sun Yang naturally knows the way of doing this.

At this time, Ma Long didn't know Xuanyi Division's status in Liangzhou, let alone Sun Yang, the deputy prime minister of Xuanyi Division, was actually Yang Zheng's disciple.

Yang Zheng's will is Xuan Yisi's will.

Yang Zheng's character is exactly the character of Xuan Yisi.

"As expected of Yang Junhou, Ma Long returned to Liangzhou today!" Ma Long knocked his head three times in the direction of Luoyang to the south, and knelt down on one knee to Sun Yang.

The surrounding guards obviously relaxed.

The wolf tune is attached, and the door to Taiyuan is opened.

Yanmen's five thousand elite cavalry and eight thousand government soldiers went south, and the cities along the way surrendered in anticipation of the wind.

In four or five days, soldiers came to the city of Taiyuan.

Shi Jian, the governor of Bingzhou, thought that the city of Taiyuan was high and deep, with [-] defenders, as well as generals such as Tang Zi, Quan Yi, Wen Hu, etc., and they were safe.

In order to boost morale, he personally boarded the top of the city.

Although the troops of the Liang army were small, their momentum was like a rainbow, and they reached the bank of the moat and lined up.

A fierce air rushed over.

Shi Jian couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

Since he became an official, he hugged Sima's thigh in Luoyang, and he was very prosperous, but he had never led an army in battle.

"Wenhu leads two thousand infantry to fight, and must severely defeat the arrogance of the bandit army!" Shi Jian has also read several military books, and knows that defending the city cannot be defended to death.

Send Wenhu to fight. If he wins, the enemy will retreat and disperse. If he loses, he will beheaded to show the public.

Ma Long had a good relationship with Wenhu before, so his survival is a major hidden danger to Taiyuan City.

These warriors have always been capricious and cannot be trusted.

Two thousand infantry took the initiative to attack more than 1 infantry...

There is no doubt that Shi Jian sent Wen Hu to die.

"The last general takes orders!" Wen Hu cupped his hands and saluted, with a cold light in the corner of his eyes.

Shi Jian pretended to be kind, "General Wen and his son won the world bravely back then, and they can't disappoint me today. The enemy's position is frustrating, and the army in the city is bound to attack. The general doesn't need to worry."

In fact, he has been guarding against these generals.

Including Tang Zi and Quan Yi, all military powers were deprived, and they were only allowed to bring two attendants with them on weekdays, and they were not allowed to contact the old ministry, and they listened to the instructions at any time.

This time Malone surrendered to the enemy, which confirmed his conjecture.

The Taiyuan city gate slowly opened.

As soon as the Wenhu cavalry walked into the urn city, they raised their arms and shouted, "Kill!"

Two thousand soldiers suddenly turned around and rushed into the tower.

The Wengcheng suddenly became chaotic.

More than 800 of the [-] soldiers belonged to the old Wen family, and they were extremely fierce. One guarded the Wengcheng, and the other followed Wenhu to kill the city.

Suddenly a fire broke out in the city, black smoke filled everywhere, and the people fled in all directions.

At the same time, the Liang army outside the city also moved.

The long ladder jumped directly on the moat, and the pawns crossed the river in a row of murderous spirits.

Some cavalry jumped directly from the narrow place.

Shi Jian was taken aback, and when he was at a loss what to do, Tang Zi bowed his hands and bowed, "The matter is urgent, and my subordinates are willing to lead the army to kill Wenhu and dog thieves!"

Shi Jian looked at Tang Zi coldly, but said to Quan Yi who stood by and watched, "Quan Yi obeys the order, quickly lead the army, and kill Wenhu!"

Quan Yi hid for a long time, but unexpectedly found him, looked at Shi Jian, then at Tang Zi, "This subordinate takes orders."

As soon as the people went down, they heard people shouting horses from the city. Quan Yi led an army and fled to the south city instead of supporting the north city. In the blink of an eye, he escaped from the city...

Shi Jian was stunned.

But he was stunned, but the Liang army outside the city was not.

Several Xiaoqi have rushed into the urn city.

Shi Jian looked back at the generals around him, all of them averted their eyes.

Birds of a feather flock together and people are divided into groups. Shi Jian is a celebrity and likes to be praised, and so are his subordinates.

Now there is no one who can use it.

They usually brag about how brave they are, but seeing the aura of the Liang army today, they all fell silent.

"There are more than ten thousand thieves in the area, how dare you be so arrogant? I will kill them with my own hands!" Shi Jian pulled out the gorgeous long sword at his waist, and just poked his head out from the city wall, a crossbow arrow flew past his scalp... …

Shi Jian said "Ouch", and shrank behind the disc in an extremely indecent posture, the courage he had just summoned was lost in an instant.

"Shijun!" The trilogy beside him did not forget to help him.

"Shi Jian dog thief!" Inside the city, Wen Hu roared and killed him.

Wenhu, who is usually docile as a cat, has really become a fierce tiger at this time.

There are cold thieves outside the city, and Wenhu inside the city.

Shi Jian was devastated, and his eyes turned to Tang Zi again.

And Tang Zi was also looking at him with a hint of contempt in his eyes.

But Shi Jian didn't have the time to worry about whether Tang Zi was contemptuous of him at this time, "General Tang, the North City will be handed over to you, and I will accept the East City!"

After leaving a word, he led his men and fled towards the east wall.

Tang Zi shook his head.

"The general can lead us to a bloody battle!" A captain on the city wall cupped his hands.

"Blood battle?" Tang Zi approached step by step, these people were not his subordinates, "How much blood do you have?"

There was a fierce murderous look in his eyes.

Du Wei was stunned, Tang Zi's hands flashed a cold light, blood splattered his face.

"All the troops in the city listen, Shi Jian abandons the city and flees, everyone must not move rashly, and those who do not follow will be killed!"

With a long knife in his hand, and his beard and hair stretched out, Tang Zi has rebelled all his life, and has long since become a professional, extremely skilled.

He didn't say that he surrendered to the enemy, only that Shi Jian abandoned the city, and the morale of the defenders immediately collapsed.

After seeing the bloody ring-shoulders in Tang Zi's hands, the suspicious captains became no longer confused...
