Chapter 1210
Chapter 1213 The family lied to Ma Teng
Zhang Yu was about to attack, so he sent someone to spread the news.
The news of Zhang Yu’s burning stronghold will not be long before it will be spread.
The wise Zhao Yun released thousands of people.
The people they had captured before gave them enough food and water, and then released them.
And Zhao Yun and the others went back through the desert from another direction.
The spread of this news was a fatal blow to Ma Teng.
Ma Teng knew that in front of Zhang Yu, he was like a praying man’s arm as a car, not an opponent at all.
But they have reliance, and their reliance is the Roman army.
According to the plan, tens of thousands of Roman troops will come in batches just recently.
The previous fifty thousand troops have already played a great role, this time with tens of thousands, they can easily defend Liangzhou, and then wait for the follow-up army.
Once the army arrives, it can sweep the entire China.
However, things are not that simple.
Zhang Yu’s determination is not something he can shake casually. He led the army, which has already made Ma Teng and his son difficult.
Zhang Yu spread the news.
“Who dares to spread rumors and kill without mercy.”
One morning, Ma Chao was in the barracks and heard Zhang Yu burn the stronghold in the desert.
This is a catastrophe for them.
Without the support of the Roman army, with their current strength, they would not be Zhang Yu’s opponent at all.
Hearing these remarks, Ma Chao was furious.
“Give me to patrol the barracks, who dares to continue spreading rumors, the owl first shows it to the public.”
This Ma Chao was frightened, and ordered his generals to patrol the barracks well.
If this continues to spread, it will be a fatal blow to their morale.
As in the military camp, the entire Liangzhou quickly spread.
The news was astonishing, as if it spread all over Liangzhou with wings in one night.
“The Ma family’s father and son are going to die.”
“Westerners can’t get along, what else do they have.”
“Datang Heavenly Army has been unable to resist.”
“Hahaha, retribution, this Ma family father and son also have a present.”
“It is said that Zhang Yu is cruel. I would rather die in Zhang Yu’s cruelty than give up this wonderful land of China to Westerners.”
“The Ma family father and son are destined to perish.”
The unscrupulous spread of the news among the people, it didn’t take long before it spread to Ma Teng’s surroundings.
Ma Teng’s staff and generals received the news, but Ma Teng did not know it.
It was not until his nephew told Ma Teng.
“Uncle, my nephew received the news two days ago. I thought it was spread by an individual, so I didn’t care about it. After all, Zhang Yu often sent people to spread rumors, but now the whole city is spread, and I’m afraid it’s the same in other places. ”
Ma Teng’s face was gloomy, this was digging his roots, and he couldn’t bear it.
“Check, you will immediately lead your troops to arrest, anyone who dares to spread rumors will arrest all of them.”
Naturally, Ma Teng knew the power of this rumor, so he didn’t dare to take a chance.
Let’s say this is a rumor, let it go, and it will cause great harm.
However, a day later, Ma Teng was furious again.
Catch, you can’t catch it at all.
Not a group of people, let alone a few people, but the whole city is spreading.
“This Ma Teng is crazy, he has arrested hundreds of people in one day.”
“Oh, how can he stop this leisurely crowd.”
“Ma Teng is finished, and he has to go against the trend.”
“Everyone, turn against this rebel against me.”
I don’t know how many people are scolding Ma Teng. He has arrested hundreds of people, but the resistance seems to be even greater.
Several aristocratic families suddenly gathered in secret.
“Let’s go and don’t act rashly at this time and touch Ma Teng’s brow.”
“Yes, it’s just a few people who are up to make trouble at this moment. Ma Teng can bear it. Once we make a move, Ma Teng will panic.”
“Well, we should make a shot at a critical time. Don’t make a shot at this time.”
“Anyway, this Ma Teng will not be able to reach for long.”
Everyone believes that Zhang Yu will soon take action, when Ma Teng and his son will be annihilated, and the Silk Road will be restored.
A few days later, news came from several strongholds in the west.
“Burned, burned.”
“The stronghold was burned, and West Road was cut off.”
“We can’t make it through.”
Those migrant workers who fled back began to spread the news.
In fact, other people have known it for a long time, but it has not been confirmed, and it has been confirmed now.
This is very terrible news.
This news is enough to destroy Ma Teng.
For ten days, even though Ma Teng had been sending someone to suppress him, he couldn’t help it very quickly.
At this time, several families went to find Ma Teng.
“Ma Gong, please deal with it as soon as possible. If we don’t restore the road to the west, we will have no way to survive.”
“Yes, our Di family is willing to contribute, and there is food, as long as Magong resumes the westward journey.”
“Ma Gong, we are willing to send people to help you suppress this rumors. We also ask Magong to send troops to suppress the Quartet.”
“Ma Gong, if Zhang Yu is allowed to occupy this place and pay 70% of his property, his strength will be greatly damaged, and he will not even have the ability to travel westward.”
Several large families came to Ma Teng and cried to Ma Teng.
Ma Teng comforted them repeatedly.
Indeed, these aristocratic families are consistent with him, so far they have not troubled Ma Teng, but have helped Ma Teng several times.
“Don’t worry, you guys, I’ll go to restore the stronghold in the west, and organize a group of people to go there soon.”
“I will send troops immediately, and the surrounding cities will definitely not have mission problems. When I take the world, I will definitely not treat you badly.”
Ma Teng finally persuaded these people away.
After the people left, Ma Teng sat there alone and sighed.
He didn’t doubt them, because these families all performed very well.
He was skeptical at first, but now they have no doubt.
Because if they pay 70% of their property, their strength will be greatly damaged, they will not be able to trade with the West at all, and their financial resources will be cut off.
This trip to the west, if the team is small, it won’t work. If the team is small, you might even lose money.
At the same time, a large number of accompanying persons are needed, and a large amount of resettlement expenses must be paid to these people.
No resettlement fees were paid, who knows if these people can come back when they go out.
So, the family base is small, but it doesn’t work.
Once Zhang Yu seized 70% of their property it was a heavy blow to them.
Therefore, Ma Teng will believe them.
But Ma Teng didn’t know that these people had been bought by Zhang Yu, and even without Zhang Yu’s promise, they would not be in harmony with Ma Teng.
One heart with Ma Teng is simply looking for death.
Ma Teng thought about it alone for a long time. He has been with his army in Wuwei County. This is where he started and an important place in Liangzhou.
“Send someone to organize a team immediately and go to the west.”
“By the way, gather people from several families and let their caravan help with transportation. We must recover as soon as possible, otherwise we will die and have no place to bury.”
What Ma Teng wanted most was to immediately restore the Silk Road so that the Romans could come over.
