Chapter 362: The Ma Brothers Delivered to the Door
Game, Xiliang, China, Mafu Nei, Long County.
The mansion was as peaceful as ever, with no waves or waves.
Xiao Wen rested for the night. Before dawn the next day, he stretched out and stood up. Then he heard the sound of fighting and fighting coming from outside.
When he opened the door and went out, he saw two young men competing in his yard.
Xiao Wen knows these two people.
They are Ma Chao's second brother Ma Xiu and his third brother Ma Tie.
At this moment, the two men were each holding a long spear, and the tip of the spear was wrapped into a sphere with hemp rope.
Even though the tip of the spear was wrapped in hemp rope and formed into a ball, it still had the most basic lethality.
When the spear was dancing, a roar of wind could be heard, stirring in the ears.
The two men were fighting back and forth, looking somewhat like warriors.
but……
If you two brothers want to fight, then fight, but what do you mean by fighting at the gate of my yard this early in the morning?
Even if you don’t sleep, I will sleep too!
Xiao Wen's mouth twitched and his face turned dark, but he did not speak. He just looked at the two people fighting in the courtyard in front of him.
How to say...
Why do I always feel that these two guys are like male peacocks in court, constantly showing off their feathers?
Xiao Wen was full of regrets, but before he could say anything, he saw Ma Chao walking into the courtyard with a majestic look on his face.
Staring at Ma Xiu and Ma Tie, his face darkened, his body flashed, and he rushed directly into the battlefield.
He made fists with both hands, raised his arms, and slammed down the gun barrels in their hands.
Boom!
Both fists danced, but they fell down at the same time. A muffled sound was heard in the ears, the gun barrel vibrated, and the whole person fell backwards. He took several steps back before releasing the force.
The battlefield that these two people finally formed was suddenly broken open by Ma Chao's two punches.
"You two guys, the space in the back is not big enough for you to practice martial arts. Do you have to go to my lord's yard to compete?"
"Am I usually too tolerant to you?"
Ma Chao shouted sternly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a hint of disdain between his brows.
When his eyes fell on Ma Xiu and Ma Tie, the two men trembled slightly, with fear on their faces. They quickly lowered their heads and shook their heads violently.
Seeing this, Ma Chao snorted coldly and scolded: "Then why are you still standing here? Why don't you go back and let me invite you back?"
"Don't think I don't know what you are thinking, get out of here!"
For a moment, the two brothers, Ma Xiu and Ma Tie, hunched their necks and left in dejection, not daring to stay at all and not even daring to pick up the spear that fell on the ground.
After the two people left, Ma Chao looked at Xiao Wen, the stern look on his face disappeared, and he put on a smile again. He cupped his hands and fists at Xiao Wen and said: "My little brother is ignorant and makes the lord laugh.
"
Xiao Wen smiled and said nothing, just stared at Ma Chao with calm eyes. After a moment of silence, he spoke out:
"I didn't realize it. Although Meng Qi doesn't treat your father well, you still care deeply about your younger brothers and sisters."
Ma Chao grinned lightly, stretched out his hand to scratch his head, and replied: "I raised them all with my own hands, so I have some feelings for them."
"They were competing in my yard just now..." Xiao Wen hesitated, then pointed to the two spears on the ground.
When Ma Chao saw Xiao Wen pointing at the spear, he couldn't help scratching his head, with a look of distress on his face. Then he quietly raised his head, looked at Xiao Wen a few times, and then said:
"Chao dare not hide it from my lord. Young masters like us who come from a family of military commanders all aspire to one day be able to fight on the battlefield."
"But unfortunately the old man at home didn't allow it. He just asked us to practice martial arts hard, but he didn't give us the chance to go to the battlefield."
"It was because of this incident that I ran away from home in anger."
"As for those two brats, they probably heard that I became a general under the lord's command. They were envious and wanted to follow me on the battlefield to kill the enemy, so they showed off in front of the lord. I hope you can accept them."
Ma Chao explained aloud. While explaining, he quietly raised his head and looked at Xiao Wen in the dark, trying to see Xiao Wen's face.
However, when his eyes fell on Xiao Wen, he found that Xiao Wen's face was calm and there was a bit of amusement in the corners of his mouth.
Xiao Wen tilted his head, his eyes fell on Ma Chao, raised his eyebrows slightly, and then said: "So, Meng Qi, what do you think?"
"My lord, just make your own decision. You don't have to consider my face. If your lord thinks that they are worthy of the important task, let them stay. If your lord thinks that they can't hold up the wall, let them be rich children at home."
"
Ma Chao said nonchalantly.
These words came out of his mouth and fell into Xiao Wen's ears, but Xiao Wen immediately fell into silence. He stared at Ma Chao with his eyes for a long time. He looked back for a long time. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he felt that he was in a certain state of mind.
level of collapse.
So, Meng Qi, do you really not care about what you said?
Why did it fall into my ears? You were just "pointing" at me?
"On the battlefield, life or death does not matter. Meng Qi should know this. If they are really allowed to join me and become my soldiers, fighting on the battlefield is the norm for them. If they are not careful, they will die.
Bloodshed is not impossible."
"Master Ma lets you practice martial arts, but doesn't let you go on the battlefield. It should be for your safety. I don't want you to have white-haired people sending black-haired people to you one day."
"Meng Qi, do you really want them to follow me?" Xiao Wen looked at Ma Chao solemnly and asked.
Xiao Wen had seen Ma Xiu and Ma Tie, and their qualifications were not very good. Although they were Ma Chao's younger brothers, the two generals were only at level three, with a maximum level of sixty.
Even if you accept these two people yourself.
With the qualifications of the two of them, they can only stop at level 60. After level 60, they can no longer make any progress.
If a third-level military general were offered to him by someone else, Xiao Wen would definitely accept it without even thinking about it.
After all, who would think there are too many generals?
The more the merrier!
But when facing Ma Tie and Ma Xiu, Xiao Wen fell into hesitation.
Because he knows what he needs to face in the future.
Once the catastrophe comes and virtuality and reality merge, these generals will join him in conquering the catastrophe.
If that time really comes, there will be a bloody battle, not to mention a level 3 general at level 60, even a level 4 or even a level 5 general at level 70 or 80, it is possible that he will die.
It hurts when a white-haired person gives a black-haired person a gift.
Isn't it painful to watch his two younger brothers die like this?
Even Xiao Wen has no way to ensure that he can protect them 100%.
so……
When they join their subordinates, they must be prepared to die on the battlefield!
Ma Chao was stunned for a moment, then nodded sharply.
"Men practice martial arts to protect their families and their country. If they have no weapons and no place to use them, how are they any different from farmers in the mountains?"
"Those of us who rush to the battlefield and fight on the battlefield should put life and death aside!"
After a moment of silence, Ma Chao raised his head, looked at Xiao Wen with burning eyes, and spoke aloud.
Hearing this, Xiao Wen nodded, but did not try to persuade him again. He just looked back, stood with his hands behind his back, and tapped his fingers gently on the back of his hands. The look in his eyes was unusually calm, neither happy nor sad.
"Since Meng Qi has already thought about it, let's give them a chance and let them try it."
"Let them be your personal guards and try the battlefield first. If they can really adapt, I will step in and take them under my command. How about that?"
"Chao, on behalf of my two brothers, thank the lord!" Ma Chao knelt down on one knee and bowed.
Xiao Wen nodded, with a wry smile on his face. When his eyes fell on Ma Chao, he had already guessed what General Ma was thinking.
After sending Ma Chao away, Xiao Wen wrote a letter and then summoned Ma Chao. He then handed the letter to Ma Chao and asked Ma Chao to come out and find someone to send the letter back and deliver it to Xi Zhicai.
This is a letter home to say you are safe.
Of course, in addition to reporting safety, there are other functions, that is, Xiao Wen's arrangements for subsequent events.
Once Han Sui and Ma Teng succeed, the entire situation in Xiliang will inevitably change dramatically.
In the afternoon of the same day, Han Sui came to the outside of Long County with a hundred personal guards, and asked Ma Teng to come to the city to see him. He said that he would host a banquet with all the friendly troops in the evening to discuss how to deal with the imperial army.
Ma Teng happily agreed and said he would attend the appointment tomorrow, and then returned with his bodyguard.
After returning to the mansion, he informed Xiao Wen of what happened.
When Xiao Wen heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.
Even he never thought that Han Sui would be so proactive. Before he could push him, this guy had already taken care of everything, made preparations, entertained guests, and was about to behead him!
It's just that this group of people has made preparations, but they haven't communicated with Huangfu Song yet.
The matter of placing spies and destroying enemy forces from within is not convincing enough just from his own mouth. Huangfu Song must be added to the list!
Therefore, on the night when he learned about this incident, Xiao Wen asked Ma Teng to resign, left Long County alone, and rushed to Huangfu Song's residence.
Even Ma Chao only found out about this after Xiao Wen left.
The reason why Xiao Wen kept it secret from Ma Chao was not because of anything else, but just because Ma Chao's identity was too sensitive.
I have been in Long County these days and have been known to many people.
Leaving alone can minimize the noise.
But if you take Ma Chao away with you, it will not be so easy to cover up the truth.
However, Xiao Wen knew this kind of thing in his heart, but could not say it out loud.
Otherwise, Ma Chao will definitely follow him.
In desperation, he had no choice but to hide it from General Ma.
At night, the moonlight shines brightly, and under the cover of night, one man and one tiger head toward the southeast.
The flying tiger spread its wings and ran with all its strength. The wind roared and rushed toward him. Xiao Wen had a calm expression on his face, neither happy nor sad.
After an all-out attack, around dawn of the second day, the sun rose, the morning light broke, the gentle light fell on the body, and a large camp appeared in Xiao Wen's sight.
This is the residence of Huangfu Song that Xiao Wen investigated before.
When Xiao Wen arrived outside the camp, he did not choose to fly the tiger directly into the camp. Instead, he chose to land and control the flying tiger to crawl outside the camp. The tiger roared and made bursts of roars.
When the tiger roared, it immediately attracted the attention of a group of soldiers guarding the door.
The eyes of these soldiers fell on Xiao Wen, one man and one tiger. However, they all rushed out with long swords in hand and surrounded Xiao Wen, intending to surround and kill Xiao Wen.
