Nine hundred and ninth chapter embarrassed recognition
Two days later, the defenders on Chang'an City were replaced, and Ma Teng once again replaced Cao's army on duty.
For three consecutive days of rotation, the pottery merchant just kept letting the soldiers use siege equipment to bombard the city head indiscriminately, keeping the city of Chang'an under high pressure to destroy the opponent's psychology in order to achieve surrender.
The purpose of destroying Chang'an City without attacking it.
At least from the perspective of those who guarded Chang'an City, this was the purpose of the pottery merchants.
The entire city wall has been replaced. At night, near midnight, the sky is dark and everything is silent. Both on the city wall and under the city wall, there is a complete emptiness.
The pottery merchant was leading an army not far away, watching the situation here carefully. He looked at the top of Chang'an City carefully, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart.
Ma Teng said that he would open the city for him tonight, while Han Sui said that he would open the city for him tomorrow night... But these two men didn't know each other's plans, and the pottery merchant was far outside the city. There were many people in this era.
There is no communication equipment, so I wonder if there will be any misunderstanding between them.
In this case, this matter will be more troublesome.
Only now did the pottery know what it meant to be unable to exert one's strength.
He felt helpless, weak, and felt like he couldn't control anything, which made him feel slightly suffocated.
As time passed, I saw torches appearing on the top of the city wall, making several circles back and forth in the air toward the left side that I was facing.
This was the signal Ma Teng had given to open the city when he made the reservation to the pottery merchant.
The pottery merchant looked at it carefully, then nodded and said: "It seems that the signal has arrived. Let's go, send troops! Attack!"
Behind Tao Shang, Guo Jia hurriedly stopped him and said, "Master, you'd better be careful."
The pottery merchant smiled and shook his head: "In this case, Ma Teng will naturally not harm me. Although he is my enemy, he does not have too much hatred towards me, and the general trend of the world has basically
To set the tone, even Cao Cao himself has gone to Hanzhong to hide. Based on this, I think Ma Teng is not stupid enough to insist on being buried for Cao Cao... After all, Cao Cao took it directly from him and Han Sui back then.
No matter how good the relationship is with someone who married the late Emperor, it is impossible for him to do such a stupid thing."
At this moment, he saw Ah Fei running out on horseback, cupping his hands towards the pottery merchant and saying: "Prime Minister, even though you said this, you still have to be careful. The Prime Minister should not take risks personally. The last general will not be talented. He is willing to lead the troops first."
Go explore the way forward for the Prime Minister!"
The pottery merchant looked at Ah Fei in surprise, but saw that his face was full of affirmation, without any arrogance, and he couldn't help but think highly of him in his heart.
"Then I'm sorry for you. Although I guess Ma Teng has no bad intentions, you should be more careful and be more vigilant."
A Fei answered the question of the pottery merchant and immediately led his troops towards the outside of the city.
…
At the same time, Ma Teng secretly issued the torch order to the outside of the city, and then went to the city gate in person, leading his elite soldiers to prepare to open the city.
Although the defense of the city was handed over to the Xiliang Army, the situation at the city gate was still handled by Cao's army, which was under the direct control of Hao Zhao.
When Ma Teng led his troops to the city, he saw a captain walking in front of him, arching his hands in front of him and saying, "General Ma, why are you here?"
Ma Teng looked at the captain up and down and said casually: "Leave the city gate to my men to guard it."
The captain couldn't help being stunned when he heard this: "Ah? You, what did you say?"
Ma Teng raised his head and said: "Tonight, the entire city defense will be guarded by me. The city gates should also be under my unified command and arrangement. This will help with the protection and overall planning of the city... Please arrange yours."
People, please hand over the city gate."
The captain was obviously a little anxious. He hurriedly said: "General Ma, there is no general like General Hao. Please forgive me for not being able to agree."
Ma Teng said with a smile: "Then why don't you just send someone to ask General Hao? I'll hand it over first, and then wait for news from General Hao."
After saying that, Ma Teng winked at the deputy general behind him.
The deputy general led a group of troops forward, but saw the captain saying hurriedly: "No!"
This time, he no longer had a polite expression, but showed a fierce and vigilant expression.
Ma Teng frowned and was thinking about how to persuade him, but he saw Ma Chao suddenly flash out from behind him, kicked the captain away, then pulled out the sword from his waist and said loudly: "Father, follow me
What nonsense is he talking about? Let’s grab the door!”
Seeing that Ma Chao finally took action, Ma Teng sighed helplessly. It was obvious that he didn't want to fall out with Cao Jun in this situation. Unfortunately, he had a son with a hot temper behind him.
Ma Chao has already taken action, so there is nothing we can do.
Ma Teng gritted his teeth: "Grab it!"
A group of soldiers roared forward and began to snatch the city gate from Cao's army.
The Captain Cao who was kicked to the ground by Ma Chao stood up fiercely and shouted loudly: "Ma Teng has rebelled! Ma Teng has rebelled..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw Ma Chao slash with his sword and cut off the captain's head from his neck.
A group of Ma Jiajun swarmed up and began to fight for control of the city gate with Cao Jun who was guarding the city gate.
Seeing that things had become like this, Ma Teng could only break the pot. He walked anxiously and shouted: "Get up quickly! Get up quickly! Seize the city gate! Seize the city!"
Ma Jiajun was well prepared and they captured the city gate very quickly.
Just when he was done, Ma Teng heard the sound of horse hooves behind him.
He hurriedly turned his head and saw Han Sui leading his soldiers.
Ma Teng's expression suddenly changed.
Han Sui glanced back and forth carefully, smiled coldly, and said: "Brother Shoucheng, are you... going to rebel?"
"Hmph!" Ma Teng snorted heavily and said, "Ma is neither a subordinate of Cao Cao nor a subordinate of Zhong Yao, so how can he rebel?"
Han Sui chuckled and said, "So it seems that Brother Shoucheng wants to abandon the dark side and surrender to the imperial court?"
Ma Teng couldn't help but trembled when he heard the words 'abandon the darkness and turn to the light'.
What's the meaning?
From what this guy said, could it be possible that he has also surrendered to the pottery merchant?
Ma Teng looked at Han Sui doubtfully.
But Han Sui sighed and said helplessly: "Brother Shoucheng, you are so fast, you have taken away the credit that should have been mine... I originally planned to do it tomorrow!"
Ma Teng suddenly understood.
It turns out they are all friends!
It almost scared me to death just now.
Ma Teng chuckled and was about to speak when he saw Ma Chao behind him rushing over again after grabbing the city gate!
Ma Chao was extremely fast. He had already passed Ma Teng and rushed straight towards Han Sui!
"Old man, risk your life!"
When Ma Teng saw this, the smile on his face suddenly solidified!
