Chapter 43 Why did they start fighting among themselves?
Yao Hu didn't understand what Ma Su meant, but he didn't convince Ma Su in the end.
Ma Su made up his mind to personally fight against the Qiang people entering the city. Yao Hu had no choice but to obey orders to protect Li Mu and others.
"Prime Minister, when will your reinforcements arrive?" Yao Hu was anxious, waiting for the reinforcements from the Shu army.
He wrote a letter asking for help on the day Ma Su fell into coma. The time is almost up, right?
Ma Su didn't know what Yao Hu was thinking. At this moment, he just wanted to decide the outcome with the Qiang soldiers as soon as possible.
"Master Fu, I don't know why the Qiang soldiers are gathering towards the south of the city at this time. Even the Qiang people who were looting everywhere are moving that way." This time, the deputy general followed Ma Su. After he detected the movement of the Qiang soldiers, he reported to Ma Su Report.
"So you're saying that the family won't even play a part? Are you planning to join forces with the Qiang soldiers to kill me?"
There was a hint of understanding in Ma Su's eyes, and it seemed that the family was planning to take action with the Qiang people.
It just so happened that I was still worried about whether the Qiang people could send me home. Now that your family has come to an end, I won't worry anymore.
"Don't worry about them. Let's go straight to the city gate and block it first. Don't let the Qiang people escape!" Ma Di waved his hand, and in an instant, the bald head possessed him again.
"They must have some plan when they go to the south of the city. We can't fall into their rhythm. As long as they block the city gate, no matter how many plans they have, they will have to come here to fight us in the end!"
"It just so happens that we blocked the gate and left the Qiang people without any other foreign aid!"
If Wang Ping were here, Wang Ping would have immediately persuaded Ma Di to go to the south of the city for a quick battle. The high mobility and discipline of the Shu army prevented the Qiang and the aristocratic families from joining together. Only by muddying the waters so that the private soldiers of the aristocratic families could not fight side by side with the Qiang soldiers would they still have a chance of winning.
However, there is no Wang Ping here, or even Yao Hu. The one with the highest military ability in the city is Ma Su. So no one questioned Ma Su's decision, and the Shu army rushed all the way to the city gate.
Along the way, Ma Su gained a deeper understanding of the rabble of Qiang soldiers. Faced with the approaching Shu army, their first reaction was not to draw their swords to fight back or retreat, but to shout disorderly everywhere.
Their reaction made Ma Su almost lose his confidence. Is it really possible to put the will to die on such a novice?
But thinking that the aristocratic family would join forces with them, Ma Su felt relieved.
After clearing away the Qiang people on the road, Ma Su finally led the troops to the city gate. When he arrived at the city gate, Ma Di saw at a glance the bodies of dozens of soldiers who were responsible for guarding the city gate.
They all had their necks wiped, and the movements were very cruel, exactly the same as the way Shu soldiers died in the archives room.
"These aristocratic families are so ruthless. If possible, I really want to kill them myself!" Ma Su let out a long sigh. Only when he truly stepped into reality did he realize how weak he was.
The aristocratic family helps the Qiang people deal with the Han people themselves. Perhaps this is the tragedy of internal fighting.
People say that he, Ma Di, is a lunatic, but in fact the family is much crazier than him.
While Ma Su was thinking, he commanded his troops to form a formation on the spot and asked the soldiers to hang his flag. In this way, when the aristocratic family and the Qiang people meet up, they can kill him directly.
The plan worked, no one could stop me from going home this time.
"Look at the time, we should have already met, right?" Ma Su narrowed his eyes and called the deputy general and said.
"Your name is Song Hui, right?"
"Yes, Mr. Fu, I am from Chengdu." Song Hui answered with his hands raised.
"Okay, now go and help me see if the Qiang people and the aristocratic families have become integrated." Ma Su nodded and looked towards the south of the city calmly, his eyes deep.
"If I'm not mistaken, it's almost time now."
Song Hui accepted the order and immediately ran towards the south of the city with a few soldiers. Not long after, Ma Di saw Song Hui running back again, and his expression became a little excited.
"As expected by Lord Chu, the Qiang people and the private soldiers of the aristocratic family have started fighting!" Song Hui was very excited and handed over the report with an excited expression.
"The Lord Fu has a clever plan. Now the Qiang people and the private soldiers of the aristocratic families have become one and the same. It is estimated that there will be no winner in a short time!"
Ma Su: "Huh??"
Wait, why is it different from what I imagined?
…………

Song Hui was right. At this time, the Qiang soldiers had indeed become physically integrated with the private soldiers of the aristocratic families.
Countless brave Qiang warriors armed with crude weapons fought against the well-equipped but small number of aristocratic families. The two sides have been fighting since the moment they met, vowing to kill everyone on the opposite side.
"Leader, aren't we cooperating with them? Why do we have to kill them first now?"
The leader of Xianling Qiang was commanding the tribesmen to surround and annihilate the private soldiers of the family, when his bodyguard asked in confusion.
The aristocratic families opened the city gates for them, and were willing to give them food, weapons and supplies after the project was completed. And the price is just to kill a county guard. This is pie from the sky. Why doesn't the leader of his own family do it?
The leader glanced at them and shook his head helplessly.
"Why are you so stupid? We have been deceived so many times by these big Han people, why don't we have a long memory?"
"These wealthy people say they will give you something when things are done, do you really believe it?"
"Why don't you believe it?" The guard scratched his head and asked simply.
"Fuck! Can't you read some books!" The leader of the Xianling Qiang tribe has the same troubles as the leader of the Dong Qiang tribe. They are always annoyed by the stupidity of the people below them.
Han people's books are good, but after reading them, I have a lot of troubles and sorrows.
The tribal people who don't study are still happy, there is a clear stupidity and innocence.
It's a pity that the tribesmen can be innocent, but he, the leader, cannot be innocent. He is the leader, the leader of the tribe. If he is also innocent and dishonest, the entire Qiang tribe will be doomed.
"Forget it, I can't explain it to you. In short, you just need to know that those aristocratic families are plotting against us." The leader of Xianling Qiang shook his head and said in a deep voice.
"They thought we were still fools and could take the blame for them, so they let us enter the city. Unfortunately, I, the Xianling Qiang people, are not vegetarians. Now that I have entered the city, how can I give up without getting enough benefits!"
"The only pity is that he was too vigilant, and the assassins sent failed to prevent him from fighting with the family. If the Han government and the local wealthy families were at war, the scene would be very beautiful!"
"Chief, the Han soldiers have recaptured the city gate. What should we do?" At this time, a Qiang soldier crawled over and reported to the leader.
"Let him bet. How much of a threat can he pose if he only has a few hundred Han soldiers in full force?" the Qiang soldier leader shrugged and said nonchalantly.
"After I wipe out these despicable big clans, I will go back and kill the fateful county governor. Then we, the Qiang people, will be the biggest winners!"
