empire wars

Chapter 69

"A waste, Ma Qingbiao is a waste."

In Jincheng County, Ma Feiteng spent ten days, injured countless soldiers, spent countless resources, and promised countless benefits, and finally captured Jincheng County.

So far, half of the cities in Jincheng County are under his control.

Now Jincheng County has fallen, and the Northern Qiang army is flattening the river, and no one can stop the Northern Qiang cavalry.

However, before he was happy, he received the news of Ma Qingbiao's defeat.

If it were a general defeat, Ma Feiteng would be happy to see it. After all, if Ma Qingbiao were defeated, no one would be able to compete with him for the throne.

What made him angry was that Ma Qingbiao actually lost a full 15 troops during the one-month battle with Mingwu City.

You know, when the city of Wuwei County was captured, no more than [-] troops were invested, and only [-] to [-] people were killed or injured.

For the 15 troops, besides the Ma Qingbiao tribe, there were also reinforcements from many large and small tribes, and most of them were neutral tribes. Because of Ma Qingbiao's various commitments, they participated in the Ming-Wu war.

But now, the reinforcements they sent were completely annihilated.

For the Northern Qiang Ma clan, it was definitely a heavy blow, and it overdrawn the future of the Ma clan. It would not be possible to recover for ten to eight years.

Among the troops going south to fight, Ma Feiteng only had 12 troops at this time.

In the past, if he wanted reinforcements, it would not be a problem to recruit [-] or [-] reinforcements from various tribes.

But now, the resources of each tribe have been exhausted by Ma Qingbiao, and it is even more difficult for him to continue recruiting reinforcements.

This is not the point, but the impact of the annihilation of more than [-] troops. The entire Wuwei County was empty of troops. In just one day, five county-level cities were lost, and even Wuwei City was threatened.

If he didn't send troops to Wuwei City to support, in a few days, the entire Wuwei County Mansion would fall into Qin Yuan's hands.

"Priest, what should we do now?"

Ma Feiteng suppressed his anger and looked at the man in black robes.

"According to the news, the person who is responsible for Ming Wucheng is the third generation of the Qin family, Qin Yuan. I guessed that this person is a Qianlong who strives for world hegemony in troubled times, but now it seems that it is almost the same."

"On the whole, with the power of 15 troops, he wiped out [-] troops and lost less than [-] people. If he didn't use troops like an army, then these [-] troops are stronger elites than my Northern Qiang warriors."

"I can only give you four choices, and each choice is related to the fate of the tribe for hundreds of years in the future."

"Fight, avoid, retreat, surrender!"

For a long time, the priest said quietly.

"What do you mean by that?"

The surrounding tribal leaders changed their expressions one after another, and some people questioned.

Ma Feiteng's expression changed slightly. This Qin Yuan turned out to be Qian Long, not a member of the Tiandao Army as he had guessed before.

No wonder, no wonder Ma Qingbiao lost so badly.

Of course, if there is a force that can wipe out 15 Northern Qiang cavalry and retain its full strength, even if it is not Qianlong, it can rely on this battle to gain luck and be promoted to Qianlong.

"If you fight, you are betting on the fate of the tribe. If you win, you will take away its luck. The tribe will prosper, but if you lose, you will be attacked by the hidden dragon. The tribe will be devastated or even perish.

If you avoid it, give up Wuwei County, focus on Jincheng County, negotiate peace with Qianlong, and strive for non-aggression.

Or retreat, it is to give up the expedition to the south, send Wuwei County and Jincheng County as a condition, retreat to the northern grassland, and not compete with Qin Yuan.

Or surrender, this person is the real Qianlong, maybe he will be able to ascend to the throne in the future, if we surrender to him now, we will conquer the world for him, and in the future we will definitely become kings and marquises, my Ma family will also maintain prosperity for generations, and future generations will enjoy happiness. "

After the priest finished speaking, he silently stroked the scepter in his hand.

"We are warriors of the northern Qiang nationality, and we absolutely cannot surrender to the Han people."

"That's right, no matter what, Ma Qingbiao is also a member of my Ma clan, and we must avenge him."

"Fei Teng, immediately mobilize troops to defeat that Qin Yuan son to demonstrate Ma's majesty."

A group of tribal leaders, commanding generals, said aloud.

When they heard the news, they were surprised the first time, and then thought of revenge.

"Everyone, don't be impatient."

Ma Feiteng's complexion became very ugly, and he was no longer as vigorous as before.

During the period of going south to fight, he won many battles, captured Wuwei County and Jincheng County, and won the support of the king and most of the tribal leaders.

However, these tribal leaders seemed to react too violently when they heard the news of Ma Qingbiao's death in battle. Then they thought that Ma Qingbiao was able to mobilize an army of 15, while his current men only had 12.

"Then according to the priest, how should I choose."

Ma Feiteng said coldly.

At this time, he had always trusted Youjia's priest, and said four choices, except for the first battle, the other three were unacceptable to him.

"You should have an idea in your own mind."

"The priest is tired, go rest first."

Ma Feiteng said in a deep voice.

"If you figure it out, you can come to see me at any time."

The priest sighed softly, left a sentence, and left the hall in a blink of an eye.

The meaning of these words is obvious. As a tribal priest, he doesn't believe in the tribe he belongs to. The same is true for this victorious leader. He doesn't think he will be Qianlong Qinyuan's opponent.

"Since everyone has decided to send troops, let's dispatch [-] troops first, divide them into four groups, and go to Wuwei City for support."

After making some choices, Ma Feiteng made a decision.

The four people hit in a row were all the commanders who had just shouted to send troops. Since they were enthusiastic now, let them take the lead in supporting them.

"What about the leader?"

A commander named Ma Ren asked.

"Tomorrow, I will personally lead the army to fight against Wuwei County and capture Mingwu City. I will definitely kill that Qin family boy."

Ma Feiteng glanced at the person who spoke. He was the commander of one of the four armies he had just selected.

Just a hidden dragon, you want him to be subdued?How could it be possible, I was the true son of heaven, the darling of heaven, from a small tribal warrior to the heir to the throne who controlled an army of [-], how could he surrender, it was impossible in this life.

"Boss, don't you plan to capture the other cities in Jincheng County?"

He was close to the leader of Ma Feiteng's line, and said aloud.

"Send envoys to persuade them to surrender and tell them that if they don't surrender voluntarily, the city will be massacred when the army breaks through."

"Yes!"

Wuwei City.

Qian Hanchong was expressionless, looking ahead with deep eyes.

Anyone who is familiar with Qian Hanchong's character will know that at this moment, this man is burning with anger, and it is best not to offend him.

"Multiple intelligence sources indicate that the leader Ma Qingbiao was indeed defeated. The defeated army only escaped with less than a hundred people, and the remaining army of more than [-] was wiped out."

Below, a clerk said tremblingly.

boom!
Next to him, a Northern Qiang man with a livid face smashed the table beside him to pieces.

"continue."

Qian Hanchong said in a calm tone.

"Tianchang, Xiyong, Shangbei, Xiliang, Beilin, the five cities have already fallen. I am afraid that the enemy army will come to the city tomorrow."

"Young Master Qian Yusheng has news, and he even threatened that if we open the city gate and surrender, we will spare your life."

"Don't even think about it, let me see who dares." The Northern Qiang man shouted angrily, staring straight at Qian Hanchong who was seated above him.

"General Ma, please be safe and don't be impatient. The prefect will not be arrogant."

Qian Han paused for a moment, and then said, "I have sent someone to ask Marshal Ma for help, as long as we guard the city and wait for the reinforcements to arrive."

"Now the enemy may attack the city at any time, and we hope that the general will take on the responsibility of defending the city."

"That's natural."

After the northern Qiang man finished speaking, he glanced at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "If anyone dares to surrender and collude with foreign enemies secretly, this general will destroy the city and send your family to heaven first."

After the Northern Qiang man finished speaking, he looked around, waved his hand, and left.

All the people present were silent.

"Everyone, do your job well and don't overdo it."

It took a long time for Qian Hanchong to break the silence. "The one who threatened Wuwei City this time was the Qin family in Ming Wucheng. The current Patriarch of the Qin family is Qin Yuan. His father died in the last battle in Wuwei City. Everyone is a smart person, so think clearly before doing anything. "

Everyone was shocked. The hatred for killing their father was irreconcilable.

If others surrendered, I am afraid there is still a way to survive, and those of them who took the initiative to collude with the Northern Qiang people have already been tied to the same warship with the Northern Qiang people, and there is no way out.

After some discussion, when everyone left, Qian Hanchong had a gleam in his eyes.

"Who brought the news about Yu Sheng? Bring him to see me."

Northern Qiang royal family.

Jin Gonggun frowned and looked at the news in the letter, thinking for a while.

The entire 11 Northern Qiang army disappeared like this?
Even if there are 11 pigs, even if they catch them for three days and three nights, they will not be able to catch them all.

And according to the above news, this month, the total number of casualties is 15.

There are 15 Northern Qiang cavalry. Even the royal family cannot easily mobilize such a large number of troops.

At this time, Qin Yuan sent people to send news that he wanted to cooperate with them, attack from the north and the south, and launch an attack on the Ma family of the Northern Qiang at the same time.

Jin Gonggun was very moved by this proposal.

However, there was a voice in his heart telling him that this was a conspiracy against the tiger. If after pacifying the Ma family, Qin Yuan's army marched all the way north, could their royal family be able to stop it?

"Forget it, let the king make the decision."

Jin Gonggun put on his clothes and quickly walked towards the king's bedroom.

Although the Jin family belonged to the Northern Qiang royal family, they did not claim the title of emperor, especially the prairie adjacent to the Liehan Dynasty. To be called the emperor was a provocation to the Liehan Emperor, and they would inevitably be encircled and suppressed by the Liehan army. The Jin family has a higher status than other royal families, and they only dare to call themselves kings.

　I wrote it all night, and the three chapters have been published. If I don’t save the manuscript, I’m tired. By the way, I’m asking for a recommendation ticket.
