The last three kingdoms

Chapter 717 Escape
Moreover, according to the report from the spies sent by Ma Gelong, when the envoy sent by the Shu Kingdom left this time, there was still a smile on his face, and although Peng Hu did not personally send him out of the camp on Lu Shuihu's side, it was Peng Hu who sent him to leave the camp. An important general under the guard came forward to send the envoy of Shu out of the camp.

All kinds of signs indicated that the Shu people and the Lushuihu people must have reached a certain agreement, which made Magron even more uneasy. I don't know what the situation is, but the situation is clearly clear at this time, Ma Gelong dare not go to Lu Shuihu's camp after being beaten to death, even Peng Hu sent someone to invite him, but Ma Gelong Gron shied away, citing illness.

Going to Lushuihu's camp at this time is likely to fall into a trap and never return. Magron has no reason to take risks, but the feeling of being kept in the dark makes Magron even more frightened.

That night, Magron didn't close his eyes, tossed and turned, and couldn't sleep all night. He kept thinking about this matter, and what made him tangled up was Peng Hu's ambiguous attitude. Ma Lanqiang is as close as a family. He and Ma Gelong are as close as brothers, but on the other hand, they have frequent contacts with the envoys of the Shu Kingdom and have kept in touch. This has to make Ma Gelong suspicious. Who exactly did Peng Hu tell? is the truth.

To be honest, since he surrendered to Lu Shuihu, Ma Gelong has not lived a single day of peace and life. He is always on guard and prudent, just for fear of any mistakes that could cost his own life.

As a long-standing opponent, Ma Gelong still has some understanding of Peng Hu. This time he can accept the surrender of the Malan Qiang people. It does not mean that Peng Hu really took them in out of kindness. Ma Gelong knows very well , It is precisely because they are still valuable that Peng Hu will take him under his command. There is only one purpose, which is to treat them as cannon fodder to resist the attack of the Shu people. Once the Shu army retreats, then The end of the Malan Qiang people can only be a dead dog.

Don't look at Peng Hu shouting one brother at a time, but when it comes time to really turn his face, Peng Hu's face must be turned faster than the book. If he didn't even have such a little self-knowledge, Magron would have died countless times.

Those who stay in their own barracks, at least have the army in hand, can have a guarantee. If they go to Peng Hu's camp at this time, they will really become fish on the chopping board and be slaughtered.

Ma Gelong decided that no matter what happened, he would not leave the Malanqiang camp for the next few days, and now he could only wait and see what happened.

After making up his mind, Magron's tense mood relaxed slightly. He hadn't slept all night, and at this moment, his eyelids were sleepy, and he fell into a deep sleep involuntarily.

But as soon as he fell asleep, he heard Ma Gecheng walking in quickly, and said eagerly: "Brother, wake up, something serious happened—"

Magron immediately lost his drowsiness, turned over and sat up, and asked, "What happened?"

Ma Gecheng reported: "Last night, the Shu army suddenly withdrew."

"What?" Magron's heart tightened, and he asked, "Is the news accurate?"

Ma Gecheng said: "After hearing the news, I immediately took someone to check it out in person. Now the camp of the Shu army is empty. According to the report from the sentry horse, the Shu army has retreated to Linjing."

Ma Gelong's heart sank, and he sat on the couch, speechless for a long time. What he is most worried about now is this matter. The sudden withdrawal of the Shu army must have reached some kind of agreement with the Lushuihu people, otherwise he would have the upper hand How could it be possible for the Shu people to retreat?
Taking a step back, even if the Shu people and the Lushuihu people did not reach any agreement, but the Shu people retreated, the crisis of the Lushuihu people would be resolved. Who can guarantee that Peng Hu will not settle accounts after the fall.

From that point of view, Magron's situation is not good.

"Brother, what should we do now?" Ma Gecheng also knew that the current situation was dangerous, so he asked anxiously.

Ma Gelong put a brocade robe on his body, paced back and forth on the ground with bare feet, thinking silently, although Ma Gecheng was extremely anxious, he could only stare at Ma Gelong. Don't dare to disturb him again.

What is in front of Magron now is indeed a difficult problem. He doesn't dare to go to Peng Hu's camp to ask what happened, but if he waits, it will undoubtedly be a dead end. Magron thought twice, gritted his teeth, Stamping his feet, he said in a bitter voice: "There is no place to stay here, but there is a place to stay. Since Peng Hu can't tolerate us, then let's go to Weibei to vote for Qi Wannian. I don't believe it. The sky is big, and there is no place to stay." Where is my Malan Qiang shelter?"

Ma Gecheng was overjoyed when he heard that, and said: "What elder brother said is very true. Instead of staying here and being bullied by him, we should go to another place. The Qi Wannian tribe of the Di people is much stronger than the Hu people in Lushui. Let's go to Qi Wannian No matter what, it's better than going to Peng Hu."

Indeed, Lu Shuihu is not the only choice for the Malan and Qiang people. Among the Hu people in the north, the most powerful one is the Qi Wannian tribe of the Di people. Just because he dares to openly challenge the Shu people, it is difficult for the other Hu people. The only thing that can be compared is the fact that Ma Gelong was in chaos when he heard the news that the Shu people had attacked Malan Mountain. Without much consideration, he took the initiative to seek refuge with Peng Hu.

But now it seems that this is completely a mistake. It is a ridiculous decision to bet the fate of the entire Malan and Qiang tribe on an enemy tribe. Judging from the current situation, the Shu people and the Lushuihu people are trying to join forces , completely wiped out the Malan Qiang people.

Don't let their plot succeed!
This is what Ma Gelong said bitterly from the bottom of his heart. Now that the matter has come to this point, it is very dangerous to stay in Jingyang, so Ma Gelong decided to lead everyone to join Qi Wannian.

But this matter must be done very confidentially, and the action must be fast, otherwise it will be too late for Lu Shuihu to react.

Ma Gelong immediately ordered Ma Gecheng to go down to prepare, gather the troops of each battalion, only bring light clothes, and discard all the heavy supplies, and even keep the camp tents and other things in good condition, so as to confuse Lu Shuihu people.

Ma Gecheng immediately went to gather troops and horses, and quickly completed the assembly. It stands to reason that the concealment of the action will be higher when it is dark, but Ma Gelong does not want to wait any longer. The genius knows that waiting until dark What would happen next, so Magron immediately ordered to set off after the team was assembled, left the camp at noon, and rushed all the way to the southeast.
