Chapter 361

After suppressing the shock in his heart, Ma Teng asked Ma Chao again:

"When will the two of them arrive?"

"Father, according to the Shadow Guards, if there are no accidents, they will be able to join us by noon tomorrow."

Ma Chao replied immediately.

"Since that's the case, you and Ming hurry to clean up the Qiang people in the city, be sure to finish cleaning up today."

"Wait until tomorrow, after the two of them arrive, tell them to rest, and we will set off the day after tomorrow. Che Liji, this scourge, it's time to clean it up!"

After hearing Ma Chao's words, Ma Teng immediately ordered Ma Chao and Pang De.

"Subordinates accept the order!"

Ma Chao and Pang De immediately said solemnly.

With the departure of Ma Chao and Pang De, all the Qiang people in Anyi City ushered in a disaster.

Ma Chao and Pang De did not let a single Qiang person go. That night, the entire Anyi City was flowing with blood, and the scarlet blood dyed the earth red.

Not until the next morning did the commoners in Anyi City dare to go out. Looking at the Xiliang army soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield, their eyes were full of fear.

Those Xiliang army soldiers, after seeing these commoners, also smiled and nodded at them.

Seeing this scene, some of the bolder commoners stepped forward to take a look and found that they were all Qiang people, so they breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fellow villagers, don't be afraid. We are the army of the Imperial Court, here to attack the Qiang people. You don't need to be afraid."

"We are all subjects of the Han Dynasty. His Majesty has long known that you have been bullied by the Qiang people for a long time, so he sent us here to exterminate them!"

"You don't have to be afraid of the Qiang people anymore, because His Majesty has ordered that not a single Qiang person is to be left alive!"

At this time, when seeing these commoners, the officers already arranged by Ma Teng were introducing the situation loudly to these commoners everywhere.

"The Imperial Court has finally sent troops to save us. We don't have to worry anymore!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, His Majesty actually still remembers us!"

"Wuwuwu..."

After hearing the officer's words, these commoners burst into tears. How many years had it been? The Imperial Court finally remembered them.

Many people couldn't help but cry painfully because of the grievances in their hearts.

After a long while, these people stopped crying, knelt down to these armies, and shouted in unison:

"We, the subjects of the Han Dynasty, thank Your Majesty!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Seeing this scene, many soldiers also felt sour in their hearts, and their eye sockets were a bit moist.

After secretly wiping their eyes, they continued to clean the battlefield. After a night of slaughter, there were still many corpses of Qiang people on the streets at this time.

For the Han people living in Anyi City, this cruel scene was the happiest day.

The Qiang tribe, which had bullied them for so long, was finally exterminated, and it was exterminated by their own Han army.

You know, the Qiang people treated them like livestock, and sometimes they didn't even live as well as livestock.

They lived in fear every day, fearing that if they were not careful, they would offend the Qiang people, thereby bringing disaster to themselves and their families.

Now it's good, all the Qiang people in the city were slaughtered, and it was exterminated by their own Han army.

Moreover, these armies of the Han Empire did not commit any crimes against them, and some soldiers even took the initiative to help them.

This made the Han people in Anyi City very approving of Ma Teng's army, and the entire Anyi City was easily controlled by Ma Teng like this.

And Ma Teng also took the opportunity to tell the commoners in the city that they were Liu Bian's army.

Saying that all this was His Majesty's intention, and if they wanted to thank someone, they should also thank His Majesty.

The commoners in the city, after listening to Ma Teng's words, didn't think it was fake and were grateful to Liu Bian one after another.

If Liu Bian knew about this at this time, he would see that his National Fortune Value was increasing rapidly.

Unfortunately, Liu Bian didn't know the news here yet!

Very quickly, under the leadership of Ma Chao and Pang De, the Xiliang army soldiers cleaned up the streets in the city, and the order of Anyi City was gradually recovering.

By noon, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei finally arrived in Anyi City and joined Ma Teng's army.

"Hahaha, Yunchang, Yide, you finally arrived!"

Outside the city gate of Anyi City, at this time, Ma Chao looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in front of him and said excitedly.

"Brother Mengqi, have you been well?"

Guan Yu looked at the excited Ma Chao in front of him and also said to Ma Chao from the bottom of his heart.

"Brother Mengqi, I missed you to death. You don't know, during the time you weren't here, there was no one to spar with me?"

Zhang Fei was different. The moment he saw Ma Chao, his loud voice rang out.

It could be seen that the relationship between the two was still very good back then!

"Yunchang, Yide, this is my father, Wuwei Prefect Ma Teng, this is Pang De, and this is my cousin Ma Dai!"

After Ma Chao finished reminiscing with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he introduced Ma Teng and the others beside him to the two one by one.

"Father, Ming, this is Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang, and Zhang Fei, Zhang Yide, whom I told you about."

After introducing his own people, Ma Chao introduced Guan Yu and the other to Ma Teng and the others.

Everyone introduced each other and walked toward Anyi City together.

After arriving at the main hall of the City Lord's Residence and everyone was seated, Ma Teng said to Guan Yu and the other:

"Two generals, my original plan was for you to rest for a day, and we would set off tomorrow morning."

After Guan Yu and Zhang Fei heard Ma Teng's words, Guan Yu immediately said solemnly to Ma Teng:

"We two brothers will follow the general's arrangements. This is also His Majesty's intention, so the general can arrange as he pleases."

"The mission of our two brothers is to follow the general's command and exterminate the Qiang people in Jincheng Commandery as soon as possible."

After hearing Guan Yu's words, Ma Teng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Guan Yu and the other would rely on their status to put on airs with him.

That would be very difficult for him to handle. Now, Guan Yu's words completely dispelled the concerns in his heart.

Immediately, he also said sincerely to the two: "What are the two generals saying? Since His Majesty sent you here, I still have to ask for your opinions."

"Since the two generals agree, then tonight, I will host a banquet to welcome the two generals."

"By the way, let the soldiers have some fun, and after eating and drinking, we will set off for Linqiang City tomorrow morning!"

After hearing Ma Teng's arrangement, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had no objections and immediately clasped their fists to Ma Teng:

"Then our two brothers will thank the general!"

"Sigh, everyone is working for His Majesty, this is what I should do, the two generals don't need to be so polite!"

Seeing Guan Yu and the other being so polite, Ma Teng also waved his hands repeatedly and said modestly.
