Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

Chen Yang and the others hurried to the north, only to see how far Ma Chao had gone, leaving only a faint figure behind, and it was too late to chase him now.

Although the people in the shadow watched them flee, there were not many people and their strength was not enough, so they did not chase them ahead of time.

As the night darkened, the attack tonight was coming to an end, and the man Wang Yue caught was indeed the fake Ma Chao.

Since there was no harvest, Chen Yang ordered all troops to withdraw.

"Go back and have a good rest. To win Jincheng tomorrow, this military training will almost be over."

Chen Yang said loudly.

For Chen Yang and the others, the golden city in front of them was already in their pocket, so it was not worth mentioning.

early morning.

Chen Yang ordered again, and the army gathered under the city.

Seeing this, Zhou Shao inside had to stand nervously on the tower, ready to defend at any time.

They seem to have been brainwashed, thinking in their hearts that if they can't defend Jincheng, everyone will die. This is their will to support them to the end.

"Listen to me, the people above. Now Ma Chao has abandoned you and has escaped from Jincheng. If you don't want to die, come out and surrender. Otherwise, we will fight in and none of you will survive."

Wei Yan received Chen Yang's instruction, so he called out about Ma Chao.

Hearing that Ma Chao had escaped, the horse thieves on the tower turned pale with fright. Now that they had no last support, how could they fight?

"No, the general will never give up on us and run away."

Zhou Shao said loudly: "You stay here and guard, I will go find the general."

His words temporarily stabilized everyone's flustered hearts, and then hurriedly walked down the tower.

In fact, he also knew that Ma Chao might not be there, because when he went looking for him last night, he couldn't find anyone.

At first Zhou Shao was comforting himself that it might be inconvenient for Ma Chao to come out, but now that he heard Chen Yang's words, he was more certain in his heart that he was definitely gone.

So what else can they do?

Of course, you have to escape, or you will die here if you stay here.

Zhou Chong went to the bottom of the city tower, pretending to look for Ma Chao, but in fact, he took the property he had looted and a few close people, and went out quietly through the north gate.

He didn't expect that as soon as he left the city, there would be a group of people waiting for him outside, of course they were arranged by Chen Yang in advance.

"Caught it, take it back to the lord!"

Those soldiers rushed over, pressed Zhou Shao to the ground in two or three strokes, tied him up and dragged him back to Chen Yang.

"Forgive me, General Chen, please forgive me!"

Zhou Shao regrets it now, isn't it good to be a bandit honestly?Don't want to be a general.

He doesn't think about anything now, he just hopes to go back to the mountain and continue to be his horse thief.

"Forgive me?"

Chen Yang said with a smile: "Drag him to the city and kill him for other horse thieves to see."

Wei Yan grinned and dragged him forward.

Zhou Shao struggled in a panic, but was kicked by a soldier, and howled like a pig in pain, so he had to calm down.

"The people above have taken care of me!"

Wei Yan said loudly: "Not only Ma Chao escaped, but even this trash abandoned you and escaped. It was a coincidence that we caught him back."

After saying that, he chopped off Zhou Shao's head with a knife, and continued: "Our lord will give you half an hour to think it over carefully, if you don't surrender, we will all die after we kill in!"

"General Zhou, dead!"

The horse thieves on the tower panicked.

"Surrender, I want to surrender, don't kill me!"

"I want to surrender too, I'll go down and open the city gate!"

After several people yelled to surrender, the psychological defenses of all the other horse thieves were smashed to pieces at this moment, and they all yelled to surrender, and no one dared to resist again.

After a while, the city gate opened, and the crowd rushed out. They dropped their weapons and let Chen Yang and the others dispose of them, but they were worried whether Chen Yang would kill them. Killing people at this time is very simple, just throw a few of those firearms It is enough to go in.

"Take control and bring them back to Chang'an when the time comes. Those who can be tamed will be kept, and those who cannot be killed will be killed."

With a simple sentence, Chen Yang controlled the life and death of the remaining 1 bandits. Sometimes he became the lord and had great power in his hands. It was so refreshing.

Then they all entered the city and took back Jincheng again.

Fortunately, before Ma Chao wanted to occupy this place and plan his sphere of influence, he didn't do anything to the people in the city, and everything inside was fine.

"My lord, what should I do next?"

Wei Yan asked.

"Next."

Chen Yang thought for a moment: "I want to go to Liangzhou to have a look, but I don't know if that place is still under our control."

It has been many years since he let Mizhu do business in the Western Regions.

When Cao Ang was there, there were no problems in the northwest. Now that he is gone, there has been turmoil for a while. I don't know if the place can still be stable.

-

Ma Chao escaped from Jincheng and walked into the Hetao area in the north.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he found that there were no pursuers behind.

"Chen Yang, why is it you again!"

Ma Chao wanted to bite Chen Yang into pieces, and thrust the spear in his hand into the ground. Looking up, there were only [-] trustworthy people left around him. It would be as difficult as possible to make a comeback.

The plan to go back to Liangzhou in the northwest is not feasible now. After thinking about it for a long time, I can only continue to go north.

"Who, stand!"

Before they had gone far, thousands of people suddenly appeared in front of them, completely surrounding Ma Chao and the others.

Ma Chao and the others saw that there were too many enemies, so they didn't resist immediately, nor would they just sit and wait for death. They signaled everyone to gather around and watch these sudden people vigilantly.

"Are you soldiers of Jin? Who is the general?"

Ma Chao said loudly, "I want to see your general."

Among the surrounded soldiers, after a moment of hesitation, someone went back to report, and after a while, Wang Ji came.

"It turned out to be Ma Mengqi. After leaving the capital of Shu, several years passed in a blink of an eye."

The general here is naturally Wang Ji, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that we would meet at this time."

Ma Chao asked in surprise, "Wang Boyu?"

Wang Ji waved his hand and said: "It's all gone. If Ma Mengqi doesn't mind, you can go back with me to talk. If you mind, please leave, but you can't continue to go north. You can go west and south. East and north are the same. no."

Ma Chao thought about all kinds of possibilities in his heart, finally nodded and said: "Please Wang Boyu to lead the way!"

When he arrived at the Jin army's barracks, Wang Ji asked, "Meng Qi, how did you become like this? After the death of Zhuge Liang in Nanzhong, there was no news of you. I thought you were too unfortunate."

"It's all Chen Yang's fault!"

Ma Chao cursed angrily, and he was too embarrassed to say anything about his own affairs.

"As I guessed, it was because of Chen Yang."

Wang Ji smiled and said, "I'm here because of Chen Yang. Since we have a common enemy, how about cooperation?"

"How to cooperate?"

"Of course you joined our Great Jin. Seriously, I am clear about your leadership ability. In the past, Zhuge Liang didn't know how to employ people, so I can't use you in the most appropriate place!"
