Ma Xi is not stupid either. He may not be able to tell others what Ma Chao tells him, otherwise things will get serious.
"Go ahead."
"promise."
Cangsong City was extremely quiet at this moment. There were only soldiers patrolling the road at night, so no problem could be seen.
At midnight, footsteps began to appear in the Fifth Army barracks. One by one, the soldiers found the corps commander, and then followed the corps commander to find the commander, who then found the team leader, and finally gathered under the command of the five generals.
"Do you really want to start it?"
Looking at the soldiers gathered in front of him, Ma Wan finally asked others again, because he felt that doing so was really unethical.
"Ma Wan, now the arrow is on the string and has to be fired. If you are hesitant, then don't blame the brothers for being ruthless."
A trace of cruelty flashed across Liang Xing's face, and he looked at Ma Wan as if he meant that as long as you dare to say no, you will be the first to sacrifice the flag.
"No, Ma Teng and I have nothing to do with each other. If I have any reason to hesitate, just kill him."
Feeling the killing intent in Liang Xing, Ma Wan couldn't help but frown. This guy was so murderous, and he was really speechless.
"Okay, brothers, today for the sake of our wives, children, and children, I will not give up until Ma Teng is defeated, and I will kill you."
Liang Xing waved his hand, and the tens of thousands of troops did not say a word, only their eyes shone with light, and then they rushed out of the camp under the leadership of their respective generals.
They don't know what will happen in the future, but now as long as they can defeat Ma Teng and dedicate Cangsong City to Yuan Shu, they can avoid fighting Yuan Shu and save their own lives.
The gathering of tens of thousands of people was quite an event, and the people arranged by Ma Xi also reported directly back to the military camp where Ma Chao was located.
"General, Ma Wan and others have frequently mobilized soldiers and horses in the camp, and there is a tendency to gather."
After Ma Xi got the news, he immediately came to Ma Chao's barracks.
"What?
At midnight, troops and horses were mobilized. As expected, these people had rebel intentions and beat drums to gather the generals. In addition, you should return to the government office immediately to inform my father."
After hearing the news about Ma Xi, Ma Chao immediately started to stir up trouble and mobilized troops and horses in the middle of the night. This was not because they wanted to leave, but because they wanted to mess with themselves. Otherwise, they could have left during the day and wouldn't have to wait until midnight.
"promise."
The loud sound of drums for gathering generals instantly sounded in Ma Chao's camp, and the rumbling war drums not only resounded throughout the entire military camp, but also throughout Cangsong City in the silent night.
When the troops under Ma Chao heard the sound of the drum, they did not hesitate to wake up their own soldiers and horses, and began to gather in the direction of Ma Chao in teams.
"what sound?"
Ma Teng was very tired today. The departure of the Qiang people had already left him mentally and physically exhausted. Later, the arrival of five generals made him even more heartbroken. As soon as he fell asleep, the general drum in the military camp started beating.
"Sir, it's the gathering drum that's ringing."
Ma Teng had just woken up from his sleep and couldn't hear it clearly, but the guards on duty at the door heard it very clearly.
"What?
Gathering drums?
Could it be that Yuan Shu made a sneak attack at night? He immediately put on my armor, ordered the guards to assemble, and called Ma Chao to reply."
Hearing the sound that was definitely the drum of gathering generals, Ma Teng didn't say anything, he directly pierced his armor and gathered his bodyguards, and at the same time asked his horse to come over.
"Sir, the young master did not go back to his hometown at night and went to rest in the military camp. I guess he ordered the drums to be played."
The personal guards naturally knew Ma Chao's whereabouts. This young master was definitely not a second-generation official, a loser, but an absolute talented general.
"Follow me to the military camp immediately."
Hearing that Ma Chao slept directly in the military camp at night, Ma Teng also nodded, and then rushed to the military camp with his guards, but when he was about to go out, he ran into Ma Xi who rushed over.
"General, Ma Wan and others gathered troops and horses in the middle of the night. The young master thought they were going to rebel, so he sent me to inform you to go to the military camp immediately."
Hearing Ma Xi's words, Ma Teng immediately exploded. These five people were really ignorant white-eyed wolves. They went out in the middle of the night to get his name to be given to Yuan Shu.
"Go to the military camp immediately."
Now that everything was like this, there was nothing to hesitate about. Ma Teng led his men and followed Ma Xi towards Ma Chao's military camp.
Ma Wan and others who had just left the military camp were startled when they heard the drum of gathering resounding throughout the city.
"I said that Ma Teng is not a good bird. He didn't believe us from the beginning. He must have placed spies outside the military camp, so as soon as we started, there was already beating drums and gathering the generals."
A flash of light flashed in the candidate's eyes. Although he said that the launch was a bit unethical, but Ma Teng placed an informant outside his military camp, was it authentic?
Now they are just the second brother laughing at the eldest brother. None of them are good people. Since this is already the case, there is nothing to be embarrassed about.
"kill."
Liang Xing has become the leader of the five people. Now there is nothing to hesitate, just kill them.
"kill."
"kill."
"kill."
The leading generals all roared loudly, as did the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses behind them. They roared together and then charged towards Ma Chao's camp.
"They are here. Young Master, do you think we are guarding the military camp?"
The captain listened to the shouts of killing coming from afar, his eyes filled with anxiety. He must know that they were the ones who suffered the most losses in the battle outside the city.
Now our own side only has more than 20,000 troops and horses, but the opposite side has more than 50,000 troops, double their number. This battle is not easy to fight.
"Guarding the barracks?
Are you still doing this in the face of those losers?
The whole army went out to defeat them."
Contrary to the captain's conservative thoughts, Ma Chao did not think so. He said this not only because he was confident in his own force,
Because although holding the camp will allow them to take advantage of some defensive advantages, it will have negative consequences for the psychology of their own soldiers, and their morale will definitely fall to the bottom.
If Yuan Shu detects what's going on in the city at this time and takes advantage of the situation to attack, Cangsong will be completely doomed.
That's why he decided to set up camp and fight, trying to defeat the enemy as quickly as possible and defend Cangsong, the most advanced base.
"promise."
After hearing Ma Chao's words, the captain had nothing to say and could only nod his head in agreement.
Just when Ma Chao and the others were leaving the camp, Ma Teng also rushed into the military camp.
"General."
"General."
"General."
Seeing Ma Teng arriving, everyone quickly saluted.
"Father."
Ma Chao also rushed to Ma Teng and saluted.
"How is it going?
What are you going to do?"
Looking at Ma Chao, Ma Teng couldn't help but ask.
"I'm not going to defend the camp, I'm going to fight them head-on."
Ma Chao glanced at Ma Teng, with a flash of fighting intent in his eyes.
"Do you know that Ma Wan and others have twice as many soldiers and horses as we do, do you have the confidence to go into battle?"
