Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 197 All counties are in chaos

What Ma Su did was really disgusting to the Zhou family. The thieves who had encouraged them drove all the way over to fight with them.

The most important thing is that the Zhou family has to take the next step. After all, even if they run away, the farm can't run away.

This is all their family property, and they are reluctant to throw it away like this.

Zhou's private soldiers all went up to the city wall with weapons and took a defensive posture in the face of more than a thousand bandits. The envoy Wu Lang sent to ask for the loan was also beaten with sticks by the Zhou family.

Wu Lang's confidants told Wu Lang the news, and Wu Lang was confused for a while. After reacting later, he immediately became furious,

"We fought tooth and nail for them. Is it easy to kill thousands of brothers? They didn't even let us pass! Are they worthy of us?"

"Tell those at the back to hold on first, while the brothers in front follow me to attack the city and defeat the Zhou family!"

I can't defeat the Han army, but I can't defeat the farm of a wealthy family like you?

Wu Lang angrily led the thieves to attack the farm, but Ma Di slowed down his pursuit when he saw the thieves so aware.

Let the Zhou family compete with the thieves first. No matter who wins or loses, Ma Su will not lose. If you are lucky and both sides suffer, that would be even better.

However, Ma Di soon discovered that without the pressure of the Han cavalry, the bandits immediately began to be afraid of moving forward. Obviously, they lack the basic motivation to attack the rich clan's territory.

Since he lacked motivation and courage, Ma Su generously gave it to them. Then he led the cavalry and charged at the bandits. Under the pressure of a burst of fighting from behind, the bandits began to fight desperately against the Zhou family's farm.

After all, it is not clear how powerful the Zhou family's private soldiers are, but this group of Han cavalry is certain to be unable to defeat them.

As the thieves climbed up and fought desperately, the private soldiers left by the Zhou family could no longer hold on. Soon some thieves began to climb onto the farm and try to escape.

After all, these troops are used to maintain public order, and they are still stretched thin when encountering such a big scene.

"Master! Get on the crossbow! If you don't get on, we probably won't be able to hold it!" A private soldier of the Zhou family asked Zhou Yun nervously for instructions. He was already sweating profusely in the face of the battle situation.

"You can't mount the military crossbow! That's to climb the pole and hand Ma Su a knife! If Ma Su sees that we have the military crossbow, I'm afraid the Zhou family will be blackmailed!" Zhou Yun gritted his teeth, and after only thinking for a moment, he rejected the military commander's offer. ask.

Han law does not prohibit crossbows, and ordinary people can have hand crossbows or light crossbows at home. But the military crossbow is an exception. This thing is very lethal and expensive to make, and no one is allowed to own it privately.

The crime of hiding a military crossbow is the same as the crime of hiding a mysterious armor. They are both crimes of treason. At this moment, Ma Su is taking hundreds of people out for sightseeing. If you take out the crossbow at this time, aren't you going to die?

Zhou Yun is also a sensible person and is very aware of Ma Su's sinister intentions.

But what Ma Su used was a conspiracy, a strategy that you know but can't do anything about. A large number of thieves who were driven to attack the city climbed up without fear of death. It was difficult for the only private soldiers to stop them.

As the situation became more and more troublesome, and seeing that the farm was about to fall, the Marquis made another request.

"Master, make a decision quickly! If you don't make a decision, the castle will fall!" The military commander was anxious and urged his master to issue orders.

However, in the end, Zhou Yun made a shocking decision after gritting his teeth.

"Remove all the people, clear the road and let the thieves pass! If you lose a little money, just feed it to the dogs, don't let it go!"

"The worst thing about this is that we will be wronged in the face of Ma Su's accountability! If the military crossbow armor is exposed, Ma Su will use it to his advantage and our Zhou family will be doomed!"

There was no other way. Faced with Ma Su's overwhelming power, the Zhou family could only prepare for the worst. Even if the truth must be revealed, it is the lesser of the two.

In the end, the Zhou family chose to give way and sacrificed a lot of finances to let the Wu Lang tribe go. Seeing this scene, Ma Su was also shocked by the Zhou family's generosity. He would rather destroy most of the farm than reveal a key flaw.

"But... these feelings are enough." Ma Su touched his chin and said to himself. Although I am not very satisfied with the results, overall it has achieved the expected goals.

With such a reason, Ma Su was determined to improve the good reputation of the Zhou family for generations.

"Soldiers, follow us! Kill all these bandits! We are going back to the city for dinner!"

"kill!!"

When the bored knight heard that dinner was about to begin, he immediately cheered up. More than a hundred light cavalrymen no longer held back, and caught up with Wu Lang, the leader of the bandit, again like a broken bamboo.

Poor Wu Lang was driven away by Ma Su like a sheep herder for a long time, but in the end he was caught up and killed directly. I don’t know if he regretted his suicide behavior before he died.

After all, not everyone has insurance after death...

Wu Lang was easily killed, and the remaining bandits were completely unable to gather together. A group of thieves broke up and fled in all directions.

Ma Su stopped pursuing this. Apart from capturing large groups of rebels, he didn't care about the little shrimps. It's impossible for him to kill all of these people, but as long as they don't gather together, it only takes a few government officials to capture them and bring them to justice, so they are no longer a threat.

Carrying Wu Lang's head and the nearly three hundred captured bandits, he slowly returned to the foot of Langzhong City.

At this time, the militiamen in the city and Langzhong's commander Zhou Yunquan were shocked by Ma Di's performance and were unable to respond.

After staying in Yizhou for so long, they had rarely encountered such a powerful enemy. Especially with more than a hundred people, he defeated the bandits defending Gaocheng in less than a day.

You must know that when Li Yan suppressed the rebellion of thousands of bandits, it took several days. And Ma Su not only came back in one day, but also drove the thieves back and killed a chicken in front of them.

When Ma Su entered the city, Langzhong ordered Zhou Wen to meet Ma Su. From the beginning to the end, he kept his eyebrows down and did not even dare to raise his head to look at Ma Su.

"The horse makes you mighty..."

"Don't brag yet, where is the dinner for my army?" Ma Di waved his hand, threw Wu Lang's head down, and said with a smile.

"Dinner... is available! It must be available! It will be ready soon!" Listening to Ma Di's gentle voice and thinking about the scene just now, Zhou Wen quickly agreed.

"This is what a local official should look like." Ma Di looked at Zhou Wen's running back and nodded with satisfaction.

"Everyone doesn't take the imperial court seriously, and just relies on his rich background to ignore Chengdu's orders. That's self-inflicted humiliation!"

"Even if there is another rebellion like this, I will not be afraid at all!"

As a result, before Ma Su finished speaking, he saw his own bodyguard rushing over like lightning and shouted loudly.

"General, there is rebellion in Hanshou County!"

Ma Su's smile gradually disappeared, but Liu Yin who followed behind him burst out laughing.

Look at Ma Su’s crow’s mouth...
