Chapter five hundred and forty-nine how good it is to work for one's own family
(On the last day of June, please vote for the Captain with your remaining monthly votes. After a hard month, the Captain needs your support at the last moment. Thank you)
Calm yet alert, alert yet dignified, Yan Liang admired Ma Dai very much.
This appreciation was the reason why he laughed out loud.
Little did Ma Dai know that the enemy in front of him, instead of being angry at his retort, would actually appreciate him.
After a moment of confusion, Ma Dai shouted in a deep voice: "Since Ma has been captured, it's up to you to kill or cut him up. What's so ridiculous about it?"
Yan Liang stopped laughing wildly, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.
Yan Liang, who has an insight into people's hearts, could naturally tell that although Ma Dai was annoyed at being captured, his hatred for himself was not very strong.
Ma Dai's toughness is just an expression of self-esteem.
Now Ma Yunlu is his concubine, and she is still pregnant with his own flesh and blood. Ma Dai is Ma Yunlu's brother and is quite talented. It would be an advantage if he could take her for his own use.
It was precisely because Yan Liang considered this point that he showed mercy in the previous fight and spared Ma Dai's life.
After laughing, Yan Liang suddenly stood up and walked forward.
Ma Dai stared at Yan Liang approaching, but soon his hostile eyes turned suspicious.
Because, instead of killing him, Yan Liang personally untied him.
"Ma Ziyue, Yunlu will give birth soon. Don't you want to see your nephew with your own eyes?" Yan Liang said lightly.
Yunlu? Nephew?
Ma Dai's heart was shaken, and his expression, which had been generous enough to die, suddenly relaxed.
If Yan Liang hadn't suddenly mentioned it, Ma Dai would have almost forgotten that he, his Ma family, and the man in front of him were actually relatives.
"Yun...Yunlu, is she okay?" After being stunned for a long time, Ma Dai asked in a low voice.
Yan Liang smiled: "As a woman who is an orphan, she doesn't have to worry about food and clothing. She doesn't have to follow your brothers around the world. Of course it's good. Otherwise, how could she have given birth to a son?
.”
Yan Liang's tone also changed a lot, as if he was chatting with his brother-in-law.
When Ma Dai heard this, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and a trace of relief quietly passed over his face.
Although he, Ma Dai, is not Ma Yunlu's brother, he has watched her grow up and has always been the most caring and caring towards this cousin. Hearing that she is living a good life today will certainly make him feel happy.
After these family greetings, the hostility shown by Ma Dai disappeared.
Yan Liang saw the opportunity and said again: "In fact, when you attacked Nanyang, you fell into Cao Cao's trick. Now that you have been defeated, you can feel relieved. This debt can be written off. Ziyue, come over and do it for me.
Fighting alone in the world, it is better to work for your own family than to rely on others."
Do things for your family...
These six words touched Ma Dai deeply and made his heart tremble.
Ma Yunlu was different from Sun Shangxiang. Apart from two fights with the Ma family, Yan Liang did not seize their territory and did not kill his father and brother. There was no deep hatred between them. It was for this reason that Yan Liang could use Ma Dai with confidence.
Ma Dai fell into deep thought. Apparently, Yan Liang's words had shaken his will.
At this time, Yan Liang said again: "Liu Zhang is a weak master. What can you do by following him? Besides, attacking Yizhou alone and destroying Liu Zhang is an irreversible thing. You will never plan to bury Liu Zhang."
Bar."
In these words, Yan Liang also had a threatening tone, which is called giving both kindness and power.
Ma Dai's figure was shaken again, and the wavering look in his eyes became more and more obvious.
Yan Liang didn't push him, he just turned around and poured himself a glass of wine.
Ma Dai's expression changed, his eyes were complicated, his thoughts were racing across rivers and seas, and he was engaged in a fierce ideological struggle.
In fact, in his heart, he was already inclined to submit to Yan Liang, but because of his so-called dignity, he was embarrassed to say it for a moment.
Yan Liang saw through this keenly, and decided to give his brother-in-law a step down.
So, he handed a glass of wine to Ma Dai and said boldly: "Ziyue, if you decide to submit to Gu and become Gu's right-hand man, then drink this cup with Guman."
After saying this, Yan Liang raised his head and drank the glass of wine in one gulp.
Yan Liang can be so "caring" and let Ma Dai express his intention to surrender in such a tactful way, which has already given Ma Yunlu enough face, and his "caring" can only go so far.
If he doesn't surrender again, Yan Liang is ready to fall out.
At this time, Ma Dai did not know that he was standing on the edge of the cliff. Life and death depended on whether he would choose to drink that glass of wine.
Ma Dai stared at the glass of wine and his fate, his eyes surging and his thoughts rolling.
After staring for a long time, the monstrous giant finally calmed down.
A relaxed smile of relief appeared on that young face.
Without any further hesitation, Ma Dai picked up the glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp.
"Good, very good. I have you, Ma Ziyue, so much more powerful than a tiger, haha——" Yan Liang was so happy that she couldn't help laughing.
At this time, Ma Dai suddenly knelt on the ground, cupped his hands and said: "Dai Yuan surrendered to the Great Sima and went through fire and water for the Great Sima. However, Dai still wants to ask the Great Sima for permission."
"Say." Yan Liang waved his hand boldly.
Ma Dai gritted his teeth and said: "The thief Cao took over my home, and Zhang Lu killed my uncle and brother. These two are the great enemies of our Ma family. Dai would like to ask Grand Sima to one day send troops to attack and destroy these two thieves, in order to avenge our Ma family."
avenge."
What Ma Dai asked was exactly what Yan Liangliu expected.
"What's the problem? I promise you." Yan Liang agreed without hesitation and reached out to help Ma Dai up.
Hanzhong, which Zhang Lu occupied, was connected with Jingzhou and Yizhou, and Yan Liang would be destroyed sooner or later.
Not to mention Cao Cao. Today he is one of the three great princes in the world, and he also has the ambition to devour the world. If you don't look for him, he will also look for trouble for you. It is a matter of course to destroy Cao Cao.
Ma Dai's sworn enemy is also Yan Liang's sworn enemy. Now why not do it as a favor?
Ma Dai was overjoyed when he heard Yan Liang's promise, and his gratitude was beyond words.
After Ma Dai was captured and surrendered, Yan Liang was in a good mood, so he ordered a banquet to be held in the military tent to celebrate the addition of a new tiger general.
After a few drinks, Ma Dai stood up and said: "Although Dai has surrendered, my brother Meng Qi is still in Fucheng. If my lord can trust Dai, Dai is willing to go to Fucheng and persuade my brother to come and surrender."
"If that's the case, then it's a big trip to Ziyue. If Meng Qi can come and submit, Yu Gu will have a pillar of strength."
Yan Liang did not doubt Ma Dai at all and immediately agreed to his request.
So not long after nightfall, Ma Dai rode out of the camp alone and went straight to Fucheng.
…
There was already a panic in Fucheng.
The wails of wounded soldiers and the cries of women continued into the night, shrouding the sky above the city. The entire Fucheng seemed to have turned into a ghost town filled with howling ghosts and wolves.
Despair and fear surround the hearts of every Fucheng person and linger for a long time.
Several riders rode Juechen through the empty streets and entered the military camp under the East City. Ma Chao, with a scowl on his face, galloped into the camp.
The remaining Xiliang army, less than five thousand, is now camped here.
"Trash, all rubbish -" Ma Chao cursed loudly and entered the tent angrily.
The generals in the tent who had been waiting for a long time stood up in excitement.
"General, what did they say?" Pound asked.
"Wu Yi, that coward, fell into Yan Thief's trick and issued an order to withdraw his troops, causing our army to be severely defeated. I asked him to question him, but he not only refused to admit it, but also blamed me for forcing a decisive battle with Yan Thief. His grandmother's
, I’m so angry…”
Ma Chao yelled angrily, not only scolding Wu Yi for being cowardly, but also scolding Zhang Ren and other Shu generals who had no responsibility.
Looking at Ma Chao who was full of anger, Pang Tong wanted to persuade him a few words, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them.
After cursing, Ma Chao finally lost some of his anger.
Just as Ma Chao was sipping wine to relieve his anger, the curtain suddenly lifted, and a dusty man walked into the tent.
When Ma Chao, Pang De and others saw clearly the person entering the account, they were stunned for a moment.
The person who entered was none other than Ma Dai.
"Ziyue, you're not..." Ma Chao was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
The fact that Ma Dai was captured by Yan Liang has been proven by Ma Chao from many deserters who witnessed it with his own eyes. He thought that Ma Dai had been killed by Yan Liang at this moment, but he never dreamed that Ma Dai was not only intact, but also appeared miraculously.
In front of your own eyes.
"You all go down first. I have something to talk to my eldest brother." Ma Dai was not in a hurry to explain. He first dismissed all the generals on the left and right, leaving only Pang De, his most confidant, in the tent.
"General Ziyue, how did you escape from Yan Liang?" Pang De asked in surprise.
Ma Dai shook his head: "I didn't escape, but Yan Ziyi took the initiative to let me come back."
After hearing this, Ma Chao and Pang De looked at each other, and their eyes became more and more suspicious.
"Why did Yan Liang let you back?" Ma Chao asked in a deep voice, his tone gradually filled with suspicion.
Ma Dai cupped his hands and said calmly: "Young brother, I don't want to hide it from my elder brother. I have surrendered to Dashima Yan. Now that I have come to Fucheng, I am here to persuade my elder brother to submit to Dashima Yan together with my younger brother."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the big tent instantly fell to freezing point.
Ma Chao and Pang De's faces were filled with surprise in an instant, as if they didn't dare to open their ears.
"Brother, Yan Ziyi is the current hero and is related by marriage to our Ma family. Only by submitting to him can we get rid of this dilemma of being dependent on others and be dependent on everyone, and can we restore the power of the Ma family."
Ma Dai's face was full of sincerity and he analyzed the pros and cons for Ma Chao.
Pang De remained silent and did not express his own opinions. After all, as a general of the Ma family, all he could do was follow orders.
At this time, Ma Chao had recovered from the shock. He finally understood that his cousin not only surrendered to Yan Liang, but also came back as a lobbyist to persuade him to surrender to Yan Liang too.
Facing Ma Dai's analysis of the pros and cons, Ma Chao responded with a sarcastic sneer.
In Ma Chao's eyes, a hint of cold murderous intent flashed in an instant. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
