() This is the face of a man who is full of masculinity and is very heroic. His eyes are bright, his face is upright, as if it is being chopped with an axe, and the somewhat messy beard reflects this man's wild and uninhibited temperament.

On the one hand, no matter how you look at it, the man who stuck his head out from the wall is a hero, but Ma Yue was shocked when he saw him.

Just because he recognized this face, he had seen this man in the army that was fighting against the rebellion, and he was very impressed. In that army, except for his father and brother and some generals around him, there were no people that Ma Yue could come into contact with.

There weren't many, but there was only one person who could leave a deep impression on him - Niu Fu, the Han general who let him see him kill Geng Bi with his own eyes!

"Why did he appear here? What is his purpose of coming here? Does he want to protect Lintao, or does he have other ulterior motives?" Suspicion arose in Ma Yue's heart. It wasn't that he was suspicious, but he was.

What this person did before was really unreasonable.

It was he who assassinated the coach, and what followed was a night attack by the Qiang people. Anyone who knew these two points would not be able to help but doubt Niu Fu's intentions. However, Ma Yue thought about it again, and still felt that this

Something is very fishy. If this person really colludes with the Qiang people, it is impossible for him to come to Latao now. He has made great achievements, how could he not be rewarded and come here to take risks in the city controlled by the Han army?

?If it were in Long County, it might still have some value, but Lintao is not an important town.

After understanding this level, Ma Yue's worries became much less. In addition, he was not allowed to hesitate anymore, so Ma Yue immediately raised his head and said loudly: "Is this General Niu Fu Niu in the city?"

?”

"Huh? Who are you, and you actually recognize me?" Niu Fu was about to order everyone to be driven away, but he heard the people below the city shouting his name, so he had to ask carefully. Last night, the rebel army killed

At that time, his troops were the fastest to respond. Because before assassinating Geng Bi, he had made full preparations. Once the matter was exposed, he would lead his men to leave. If he succeeded, he would also lead his troops into Lintao, because only

Only in this way can one's own strength be preserved to the greatest extent. Therefore, the Qiang's raid last night did the least damage to Niu Fu's troops. This is also the key to his dare to defend the city.

"Ma Yue, the son of Sima Ma Teng of the Liangzhou Army, met the general a few days ago during the march." Ma Yue brought out his father's name again. There was no way anyone could tell him that he was just a white man now.

"Son of Ma Teng? Then why didn't I see your father?" Niu Fu seemed to be somewhat convinced.

"Last night the rebels suddenly attacked at night and scattered my army. I have long been separated from my father and the others." Ma Yue smiled bitterly and said, "I hope the general will open the door and let us in for the sake of my father being an official in the same place as you."

city!"

Niu Fu couldn't help but became a little silent. From the bottom of his heart, he still felt a little guilty for the defeat of the army caused by his assassination. It was these implicated people who wanted to enter the city now, so it was really difficult for him to refuse.

However, this matter was related to the survival of Lintao County, and even more related to the further actions of his father-in-law, so he did not dare to make the decision without authorization.

Seeing that he seemed to be moved, but still hesitant, Ma Yue said: "In addition, I also have a message, which is related to whether Lintao can be defended. I hope General Niu will be accommodating. You can also see it, now

Except for me and a few brothers, most of the people under the city are old and weak, women and children, and they are by no means the so-called elites of the Qiang people. If the general is still worried, I only ask that you can bring the people into the city and resettle them. I can't wait.

Half a step from the city gate!"

After pondering again, Niu Fu finally couldn't bear to be cruel and allowed the people to die in the hands of the Qiang people. He waved his hand and said: "Open the city gate and let them in." Then he shouted to the people below the city: "But in order to prevent accidents,

Your brothers will be aggrieved and must put down their weapons and dismount before they can enter the city."

"Okay!" Ma Yue nodded, and then ordered Wang Feng and others to dismount and put down their weapons. Although everyone was reluctant to do so, they still did so because they had a high level of trust in Ma Yue. When the people saw this scene, they

Their hearts were filled with gratitude and excitement, and many people burst into tears, finally escaping for the time being.

Led more than 300 people, Ma Yue and others walked into the Lintao City Gate, which was only a sliver open. On both sides of the corridor, the defenders stared at them, holding bows with arrows in their hands.

, once they make any change, they will be given a head-on blow.

When they passed through the corridor, they saw Niu Fu in armor walking down the city. He stared at Ma Yue with a solemn expression: "Is what you just said true? Is there any military information related to my survival in Lintao now?

Just say."

Ma Yue did not dare to take the big shot, so he told what he had heard and speculated after rescuing the people: "...it is obvious that the Qiang people intend to use our Han people as the vanguard to weaken our army.

Determination to defend the city, and then capture Lintao in one fell swoop."

After hearing this, Niu Fu also frowned. This strategy was indeed vicious. He could also imagine how huge the blow would be to his soldiers if it came true. You must know that 90% of the Xiliang Army's sergeants

The above are all locals who were born and raised in the country. Who wouldn’t be familiar with the country elders?

Is it related? Once it is discovered that these rural elders are being driven towards the city, I am afraid that not many people will dare to kill them with bows and arrows. And if they can’t use their skills and are attacked by the Qiang people, Lintao City’s low level will

It's short, I'm afraid it will be captured by the enemy overnight.

"This... what should we do?" Niu Fu felt very heavy and couldn't help but murmured: "There must be no loss in this city, otherwise all the plans of my father-in-law will be in vain."

Hearing him talking to himself so softly, Ma Yue's heart moved, and he seemed to have caught something. It turned out that Niu Fu was not the one who called the shots, he was just following the instructions of others. In this way, his previous strategy could be changed.

Thinking of this, Ma Yue comforted him: "General Niu, don't worry too much. There is a solution before the incident happens."

"Solve it, how else can we solve this matter?" Niu Fu glared at him: "I think the Qiang people will appear in our Lintao city soon. Can we abandon the city immediately?"

"Abandoning the city is of course impossible, but we can turn passivity into initiative... But the general may not have the final say in this matter!" Ma Yue said, carefully observing the other party's expression, and sure enough he found that Niu Fu had something to say.

"If you have any ideas, please tell me quickly. If it can be done, I will ask others for instructions." Niu Fu was already a little confused, and he actually followed Ma Yue's words and told the truth.

"This..." Ma Yue felt very confident now, and said as if he was in embarrassment: "This matter is important, and I really don't dare to reveal it to others. If the general is willing to introduce you to your Majesty for me, I can work with him.

talk."

"Huh?" After all, Niu Fu is not a completely opinionated person. He was led by Ma Yue just because he was flustered for a moment. Now that he has calmed down, he feels that something is wrong. He said coldly: "What are you doing?

What's your intention? Why do you want to inquire about what's going on in Lintao City? Why do you want to see my lord?"

"I..." Ma Yue couldn't give a valid reason for a while, and was really stunned for a moment.

"Even if things are really as you said, we will handle the matter ourselves and won't bother you anymore." Niu Fu no longer planned to continue the previous topic and waved: "You just stay with them.

From here at the city gate, none of you are allowed to leave here without my permission!" This meant that he was still wary of them.

Ma Yue had no choice but to accept this arrangement with a wry smile. He knew that he was completely unqualified to negotiate any conditions with the other party, otherwise he would not even have the chance to stay here. Although he had said forcefully just now and was willing to leave the protection of the city,

He just wanted them to take in the people, but in fact he didn't want to take risks outside. Because Qiang cavalry would appear there at any time, and the more than thirty of them were exhausted from the continuous battles and were no longer able to fight anymore.

In desperation, Ma Yue and the others had no choice but to stay at the city gate and rest on the ground. But compared to the fear outside the city, it was much better here. At least they didn't have to worry about enemies suddenly appearing at any time.

In his mind, Ma Yue was thinking about how to meet the person in charge here, and at least tell that person about his countermeasures. Otherwise, he was really afraid that even the city would not be able to be saved under the attack of the Qiang people.

, then I will have to experience a narrow escape from death again.

In fact, Ma Yue still had an excuse to persuade Niu Fu to submit, and that was about his assassination of Geng Bi. But after weighing it, he still gave up this theory because he was not sure that he would do anything about it once the other party knew about it.

If he knew everything, would he kill himself in anger to silence him? If that were the case, it would be so unworthy.

"Mr. Ma, what should we do next? I think the Qiang people will come to kill them soon." Wang Feng and the others were also worried and asked quickly.

"Now we have no initiative, we can only take one step at a time." Ma Yue leaned on the city wall, looked up at the blue sky and said: "If the lord of this city is really knowledgeable, he will definitely do it after listening to Niu Fu's report.

He will ask me to go and meet him, and then I will try to convince him. But if that person is not moved at all, there is nothing I can do."

Just as Ma Yue said these words, Niu Fu had already reported the whole matter to his father-in-law and lord Dong Zhuo. The latter then said after pondering for a while: "Go and call the boy who said he has countermeasures.

, I want to see what he can say!"

"But if this person has evil intentions, wouldn't it be too risky for my lord?" Unlike Li Ru, Niu Fu still used to call Dong Zhuo his lord to show respect for him.

"Hmph, what kind of threat can a raw and unfinished boy be? I, Dong Zhuo, dared to confront the Qiang people when I was sixteen years old. Isn't it that I am afraid of him now? Go and call the people." Dong Zhuo spoke.

There was an overwhelming momentum in the room, so Niu Fu didn't dare not listen, so he had to say yes and hurriedly went to find Ma Yue.
