Looking at the steel knife in Hu Yong's hand, Ma Feng knew that his mission to Chang'an was a complete failure. According to Ma Teng's thinking, Li Jue would definitely send troops, but now it backfired. If things continued, Ma Teng
It is possible that you suffered a big loss because the information did not arrive.
So Ma Feng retreated directly back to the inn. Ma Feng knew that he had to find a way to escape no matter what, and reported the news about Li Jue to Ma Teng.
Ma Feng chose to rest before nightfall. He wanted to find a way to escape from the inn and return to Liangzhou in the middle of the night.
The sky was getting dark, and the soldiers outside the post station were getting a little sleepy. Hu Yong said a few words to his men and went to rest, while the others continued to be on duty outside.
At midnight, Ma Feng quietly stood up and glanced at the soldiers outside through the window. He found that the people outside had not relaxed yet, so he chose to continue waiting.
About an hour later, Ma Feng looked over again, and sure enough, the soldiers who were still very dedicated began to stagger around and rest. Then Ma Feng changed his clothes, quietly opened the back door window, and jumped out like a swallow.
.
Looking at the two-meter-high city wall, Ma Feng couldn't help but smile, and then he stepped directly onto the courtyard wall with a small leap.
Ma Feng jumped down slightly, glanced at the two sleeping soldiers, threw off his arms and ran out directly.
"Team leader, Ma Feng ran away."
As soon as Ma Feng started running, he was discovered by people in the room outside the post station and immediately reported it to Hu Yong.
"I knew this guy wouldn't be honest. If I get scolded by the general, I will kill you directly."
It turns out that all this was arranged by Hu Yong. He was defeated by Li Jue, so he wanted to get back at Ma Feng, the instigator. Otherwise, how could his elite soldiers sleep while on duty?
"Team lead, you mean."
When the man heard Hu Yong's words, he immediately made a motion of slitting his throat.
"Kill, the general said, as long as he is dishonest, kill him on the spot."
There was a trace of cruelty in Hu Yong's eyes.
"promise."
Ma Feng ran at great speed, but after running five hundred meters, he realized that he might be wrong, because five soldiers appeared in front of him, with two shields and three bows.
"Ma Feng, where are you going so late?"
Just when Ma Feng was in a daze, a voice sounded from behind him, and Hu Yong also chased after him.
"Sir, I'm a little bored at the inn, so I want to come out for some air. I'll go back right away."
This was obviously a game he had been tricked into. Hu Yong was trying to trick him, so Ma Feng immediately gave in and wanted to return to the inn. As for what happened to Ma Teng, it was no longer his concern. He wanted to save his own life first and then
Only then can this message be spread.
"Haha, now that you're out, don't go back. I'll give you some air."
As Hu Yong spoke, his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"Sir, I don't dare anymore. In fact, I brought a box of gold before I came. It was a gift from General Ma Teng to General Chariot and Cavalry. It was just hidden outside the city. If you are willing to let me live, the gold will be mine."
I will certainly offer it with both hands."
As he spoke, Ma Feng knelt down on the ground, and at the same time, he threw out a chip and a box of gold at the right time, which was enough to move many people.
"Do you think I will believe you?
You are very loyal to Ma Teng, and even under such circumstances, you have to find a way to run out to report the message to him. How could you secretly hide the gold that Ma Teng gave to the cavalry general?
Do you really think I am a fool?"
Hu Yong was not stupid. When he heard Ma Feng's words, he immediately judged that it was just a trick to survive.
"What I told is all true. It's true. There is gold hidden outside the city."
Hearing Hu Yong's words, Ma Feng's face turned dark. He was finished. The other party didn't fall for it at all. If this was the case, he might really be finished.
"Haha, let's accept your nonsense. Ma Feng wants to escape, and he will be killed without mercy on the orders of General Chariot and Cavalry."
Hu Yong gave the order, and the three archers did not hesitate, directly pulled the bowstring, and shot the sharp arrow on the string into Ma Feng's body.
"I hate it so much. Lord. Take care."
Three sharp arrows hit him, and Ma Feng fell directly into a pool of blood. But even if he fell to the ground, he still crawled forward, and his target was in the direction of Xiliang.
Looking at Ma Feng's appearance, Hu Yong felt a burst of contempt. Everything was false and only his own life was the most real.
Slowly walked to Ma Feng, then stepped on him, drew out the steel knife, and chopped off Ma Feng's head.
"Carry the body back."
After doing all this, Hu Yong directly picked up Ma Feng's head and returned to the inn, while the remaining five soldiers picked up Ma Feng's body and returned to the inn together.
The next day, Hu Yong went directly to the Cheqi General's Mansion and told the soldiers outside the door that Ma Feng had been beheaded.
"What?
Ma Feng escaped privately at night and was beheaded by Hu Yong?"
Li Jue was also stunned when he heard the news from the soldiers.
"Well, General, Hu Yong is waiting outside the mansion. You can figure out what to do next."
The soldiers knelt on the ground waiting for Li Jue's answer.
"It's no big deal if he just kills him. If he seeks death, he can't blame others. Hu Yong should let him return to the team and be on standby."
To be honest, it doesn't matter to Li Jue that Ma Feng is so ignorant of current affairs. After all, he is just a messenger of Ma Teng. Now Ma Teng is already in danger, so he will kill him.
"promise."
Hu Yong was relieved after receiving the reply from the soldiers. After all, Ma Feng's identity was also the messenger of a prince. He would kill him if he wanted to. He was also afraid of Li Jue's punishment. He is fine now. It seems that everything is fine.
"Thank you, little brother. I'll treat you to a drink another day."
Now that nothing was wrong, Hu Yong left the Chariot General's Mansion directly and returned to the camp with his soldiers.
Ma Feng's matter disappeared into the air like the wind. In troubled times, no one would care about an unknown person.
The episode in Chang'an ended, but things were raging in Liangzhou. Yuan Shu's army went all the way north, and Ma Teng's troops also went south, and finally completed the intersection outside Cangsong County.
"My lord, Ma Teng's soldiers and horses are stationed in Cangsong, and they should fight a decisive battle with us here."
Xun You took the battle report compiled by the scouts and went directly into Yuan Shu's Chinese army tent.
"oh?
Ma Teng has indeed gone south, how many soldiers and horses does he have there?"
Hearing that Ma Teng did not choose to resist in Guzang, but instead marched out of Cangsong, Yuan Shu also became interested. These were very similar to his judgment before sending out troops, but it did take some courage for Ma Teng to really come out.
"I don't know the specific situation, but I estimate there are at least hundreds of thousands of troops."
Ma Teng's troops and horses are all located in Cangsong County. It is indeed difficult to know their troops and horses, but basically you can get a rough idea by guessing.
"Well, these are not beyond our expectations. How is Wenyuan?"
