As the sun sets, waves of floating clouds float, reflecting a fiery red sunset. Under the sunset, a group of soldiers and horses are moving forward slowly and firmly.
Ma Chao rode his horse in the army and slowly advanced with the troops. As the troops' destinations got closer, a trace of tension was oppressing Ma Chao's nerve endings. Ma Chao's thoughts couldn't help but start wandering.
Ma Chao's age is supposed to be a great age for young people to not know the taste of sorrow. However, the turbulent era made Ma Chao end the worry-free years early. Especially in Ma Chao's father Ma Teng, who is loyal to generations
The loyalty and righteousness, regardless of uncle Han Sui's advice, resolutely followed the order of the imperial edict and went to Xudu to congratulate the emperor from the traitor and personally ruled. As the eldest son of the Ma family, Ma Chao had no choice but to take on the burden of the four counties of Xiliang.
.
Ma Chao and his father have been separated for a long time. Therefore, when Li Ru mentioned that Ma Chao was not good at going to the army, it may damage Ma Teng's official position and safety. Ma Chao also had to agree with this and became worried.
On that day, Li Ru said to Ma Chao: "General Ma was successful at a young age, dominated Xiliang, and was powerful in the ten counties of Qiang and Hu. General Ma occupied four of them. Compared with my father-in-law, money, power, etc.
On the one hand, I can't compensate General Ma. However, I heard that before Cao Gong transferred General Ma to the expedition, he promised that if General Ma made great contributions in the war, in addition to letting General Ma share Liu Ming's wealth, General Ma
His father can also be promoted to the court. Now, we have a crushing defeat and we have no hope of Liu Ming's wealth, but General Ma's father, General Ma Teng, will not be hurt by it?"
Ma Chao heard Li Ru mention his father Ma Teng, and he felt sad. Where did Ma Teng do in Cao Cao? Ma Chao had no idea at all. Ma Chao had no idea. Ma Chao had to say randomly: "Governor Li was joking. My father was an official in the court.
, if you eat royal salary and keep your duties, how can you be hurt? Besides, our battle situation is not a fight. Even if I, Ma Chao, will not be punished for this, how could my father be implicated by me?"
"Hehe. General Ma. We are not secretly talking. What does the emperor look like when my father-in-law is in the hands of my father-in-law? What does he look like now in Cao Cao's hands? The Han Dynasty has declined. How could Cao Cao be like when he is in the hands of his father-in-law?
It really takes the emperor seriously. Cao Cao just continued to do the act of my father-in-law holding the emperor and ordering the princes. However, Cao Cao's methods are higher. He casually set up a name and deceived your father. Your father knows
He was an official in the court, and secretly the hostages seized by Cao Cao. You can't you still don't know General Ma until now, right?" Li Ru told the truth without mercy.
How is Ma Teng's condition? How could Ma Chao not understand? He said he would go back, but now he doesn't go back once he goes. It's an individual who knows what happened. Ma Chao said upset: "So what? My father
In order to be loyal, he has been a hostage. What can you do if you do this?"
Li Ru laughed and said, "As long as you understand, it will be easy to deal with General Ma. We are all from Liangzhou, and we are not close to each other, and we are close to each other. Today, Li Ru has caused the general to suffer heavy losses, and I, Li Ru, will pay back today.
The favor of the general.”
"How can I return the Dharma?" Ma Chao asked in confusion.
"Now the war here has been extinguished. You all have to return to your garrison. However, Cao Cao is still fighting against Liu Ming. I will write a letter for the general and recommend the general to Cao Cao to assist Cao Cao in defense. Cao Cao will independently fight against Liu Ming,
His troops will inevitably be short of strength. When the general arrives, Cao Cao will be happy. At that time, the general will tell Cao Cao about his father for many days, thinking about the reunion of family. Cao Cao will definitely feel at ease when he sees the general in his territory and will definitely agree with it.
When General Ma Teng and the general reunite, you can pull out the camp and return overnight. I will send troops to you in Wuguan to help you. You can ensure that the general returns to Xiliang safely." Li Ru suggested to Ma Chao calmly.
Ma Chao was a little confused. Why is Li Ru so good? He was so implicated by himself inadvertently and was ready to risk his confrontation with Cao Cao. Is this impossible?
Ma Chao hesitated and asked Li Ru: "Why did Governor Li treat me well? Today's battlefield affairs are not directed by Governor Li to take such risks."
Li Ru's face did not change color and his heart was not beating, frankly said: "General Ma, I will not hide it from it. If it is just today's business, it is indeed not worth my risk for the general. But now Liu Ming's strength is too strong, my father-in-law
Lord, it’s hard to fight against Liu Ming alone. General Ma is close to me and is a powerful man in Liangzhou. Today I will help General Ma, and the grudges between you and me will be written off from now on. If my family is in trouble in the future, General Ma
I will definitely think about today's love, think of the truth that my lips are dead and my teeth are cold, and I will help my family with all my strength. Moreover, General Ma, the father of General Ma, is in Cao Cao's hands, and General Ma is always a sharp blade in Cao Cao's hands. My family is sandwiched by you
Between the two families, when my family faces Cao Cao, your family is always located in the back of my house, which is really like a ray of light on my back. It makes my family unable to sleep or eat at all times. This is not the case now that my family will help you and remove General Ma.
I have worries. From now on, you and my family are in Liangzhou and are watching and helping each other. Isn’t that good! As long as you and I join forces, the Qiang, Hu and Xiongnu will all be used by me. Why should we fear others in this world?"
Ma Chao was completely dispelled by Li Ru's doubts and was full of passion. At this moment, Ma Chao said to Li Ru: "This time, if I get the help of Governor Li and save my father, I, Ma Chao, will not forget my feelings today. I will definitely be with you.
Establish a family and help each other."
"Young Master, Luyang City is ahead. Are we going to call us as planned?" Pang De asked Ma Chao softly.
Ma Chao's memories were interrupted, and Ma Chao woke up. Success or failure was here. Ma Chao nodded with a twelve-point spirit and said, "Okay. As planned, he said."
Pang De immediately walked out of the forefront and rushed to the front of Luyang City and said loudly: "Listen to the officers and soldiers guarding the city. It is Pang De of Xiliang. We are the troops of Ma Teng, the prefect of Xiliang. Now we are sent by General Dong.
, come to help Prime Minister Cao defend Guandu. Pass here, open the door quickly and make the way out."
Sili is really desolate today. Sili has six counties, nine out of ten rooms and a vast expanse of thousands of miles away. When Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo were in conflict, Cao Cao also set up a camp near Wuguan to prevent Dong Zhuo's surprise attack, but he could beat Cao Cao himself
After forming an alliance with Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao's defense line also shrank. Cao Cao was too lazy to care about the uninhabited areas of Sili, so Luyang City became the first city under Cao Cao to arrive, which Ma Chao and others arrived.
As Pang De shouted, in a short while, golden drums sounded and a team of people rushed out in a mighty manner. The generals led by the heels of iron, bronze armor, and the green congregation horse under the crotch. The big size in the palm
He got the Phoenix Tail Knife. There was a commander-in-chief flag behind him, and the word "Cao" written on it was written on it.
Before Ma Chao and others wondered why they should have received a letter from Li Ru, Cao Cao City did not greet him and others as planned? Instead, they sent a large number of troops. The general on the opposite side rushed out of the formation and shouted loudly: "I am a sir."
The general is Cao Hong, the general under Prime Minister Cao’s account! You and others rebel, don’t talk about it. Li Ru had already informed my prime minister that he had learned that Ma Teng has been killed. You and others are left to listen to the Ma clan.
Later, the imperial court's defeat, and other irrelevant people, quickly dismounted and surrendered. My prime minister, who made great contributions, can spare you and never die!"
"Oh!" Ma Chao, who suddenly heard the bad news of his father, shouted, his eyes turned black, and he fell from the horse with a fall.
Ma Dai quickly rescued with red eyes. Pang De in front of the formation roared: "You are talking nonsense!" He rushed over with a knife.
Cao Hong returned the fight. The two fought together.
Ma Dai slapped for a long time, and Ma Chao woke up slowly and said with a sob: "Dad, I'm sorry for you. I've been hit by Li Ru's trick. I'll definitely use Li Ru's thousands of swords and blades to comfort Dad's spirit in heaven!"
"Brother, let's be sad. We are still on the battlefield now." Ma Chao advised from the side.
When Ma Chao heard this, he immediately jumped up as if he had the help of a god, and flew onto a horse. He killed Cao Hong like a madman. At this time, Ma Chao's eyes were no longer like human eyes. Ma Chao shouted in a series of words:
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
At this time, Cao Hong was in a difficult situation to fight with Pang De. Seeing Ma Chao's shot, he stabbed him in the chest. Cao Hong hurriedly used the gun to block it.
There was only a loud bang. Cao Hong's sword did not completely block Ma Chao's gun. Ma Chao's gun tip was slightly tilted downward. Ma Chao's gun was placed in a flash.
The fish scales and skirt on Cao Hong's thighs didn't work at all. Ma Chao pulled it out casually and 'stooped' and it was a big hole.
Cao Hong groaned in pain and ran away.
At this time, Ma Chao must not be said to be in a state of soberness. Seeing Cao Hong escape, how could Ma Chao agree? Ma Chao then chased after him.
Xu Huang in Cao Hong's formation quickly swung the mountain axe and stepped forward to respond. Cao Hong was Cao Cao's most beloved cousin and saved Cao Cao's life. That would never be possible.
In the midst of lightning, Xu Huang let Cao Hong pass and stop Ma Chao.
Now Ma Chao is absolutely angry. As long as the person in front of him is not his own, there is no difference for Ma Chao, and he will kill them all.
At that moment, Ma Chao was too lazy to say a question. He roared: "Kill!" The shocked lightning shot was already stabbed head-on.
Although Ma Chao's current state is a bit off his state of breaking through martial arts realm, Ma Chao's explosive power and Ma Chao's speed have definitely increased to an astonishing intensity.
In just three rounds, Xu Huang couldn't hold the ball. When the two horses were in the stirrup, they were hit on the back by Ma Chao's backhand. At that time, Xu Huang squirted out a mouthful of blood. Xu Huang used the strength to help the saddle and his head was also
He was defeated towards the formation without any support. Cao Hong's formation quickly flew out to meet Xu Huang.
These two generals are the generals under Cao Hong, Sun Guan and Wu Dun.
Sun Guan's horse was faster, one step ahead of Wu Dun. But this became Sun Guan's death-seeking step. At this time, Ma Chao's eyes were red, and his murderous intent had reached its peak. Seeing Sun Guan approaching, Ma Chao roared angrily: "
Kill!" The big gun in Ma Chao's hand trembled and stabbed him.
The sound of killing was completely blew, just like the substance, and Sun Guan was depressed. Sun Guan's hand slowed down slightly, and the big gun in Ma Chao's hand had already penetrated Sun Guan's chest with a "pop" sound.
.
At this time, Wu Dun also urged him to come immediately. Ma Chao did not pull his big gun out of Sun Guan's chest. He yelled his hands and yin and yang merged. He immediately picked Sun Guan in the air. Ma Chao's
With a big gun swung, Sun Guan immediately performed a flying yaksha, and corpses flew in the air. He smashed Wu Dun straight.
It was the first time Wu Dun experienced this kind of scene. His former colleague suddenly flew towards him with a ferocious face. Wu Dun used weapons to block Sun Guan, and he couldn't put down his weapons to catch Sun Guan. Wu Dun faced him.
Obviously, his simple brain was not enough for this kind of emergencies. He was a little stunned at this critical moment. But it doesn't matter if he was stunned. His horse was still running forward, and Sun Guan's flying corpse in the air was even worse.
Will stay in place, between the earlobes, I heard the "promotion" all of a sudden, the steel helmet on Sun Guan's head was iron, Wu Dun's face was fleshy, Wu Dun's face was suddenly blocked
Wu Dun died of brain spilling.
Ma Chao had no trouble at all, and killed two generals in a row, and chased Cao Hong's formation like a flying horse.
Cao Hong's soldiers were stunned. My God! Is this still a human?
No matter what Cao Hong and other soldiers think, Ma Chao has already entered Cao Hong's formation. Wherever Ma Chao passes, there is no general. The 15-foot-meter-meter-meter-to-meter-to-be-meter-to-be-meter-to-be-meter-to-be-meter-to-be-meter-to-be-meter-to-be-meter-to-be-meter-to-be-meter-to-be-meter-to-be-meter-to-be-meter-to-be-
.
Pang De and Ma Dai saw Ma Chao break into Cao Hong's formation, afraid that Ma Chao would make any mistakes. He quickly commanded the troops to cover up and kill them. Ma Chao's troops roared and quickly advanced forward. They approached Cao Hong's troops
At more than fifty steps, the characteristic of Ma Chao's army, the spear thrower, once again showed his power. The spear flying all over the sky suddenly opened the eyes of Cao Hong's army.
Unfortunately, the price of this vision is too high. Many soldiers under Cao Hong only saw the last glance of the spear flying in the sky, and from then on no longer have to care about what they see.
The successive defeats of the main general and the terrifying massacre of the flying spear made Cao Hong's troops, which were originally an elite force, completely collapsed. Cao Hong's soldiers were rushing to Luyang City without command. What's the matter?
They are all fake. The life that runs is real.
At this time, the army was defeated like a mountain. No one could save the defeat under such circumstances.
At this time, Ma Chao was still killing wildly among Cao Hong's defeated soldiers.
