Han Shimou

Cheng Gongying's face was calm, and he shook his head lightly and said.

"General Ma calm down. Right now, Beigong Jiyu is preparing soldiers and horses for the Xiqiang tribe. In order to deal with the war in Xiliang, Beigong Jiyu has already imposed strict regulations on all tribes not to leave the tribe without authorization. Therefore, it can be seen that this is definitely not what the Qiang people did." for.

If Cheng's guess is correct, there is a high possibility that Wen Bufan ordered his soldiers to pretend to be Qiang people, and he hurt the King of Hanyang, and then blamed the Qiang people.The purpose is to make the Holy Master vent his anger on our side, with the intention of never reconciling.In this way, Wen Bufan can start a war with us without any scruples. "

"What a vicious method! This Wen Bufan has always acted aboveboard, but I didn't expect that he is also a sinister and cunning person!"

Ma Chao reacted to Cheng Gongying's reminder immediately.Seeing this, Cheng Gongying secretly thought that the Mashi lion was still too immature, and it was the autumn of troubled times, if he wanted to save himself, intrigue was inevitable, not to mention the struggle between forces?

"General Ma, it seems that it is impossible to rely on the imperial court to delay the war. But fortunately, Cheng made another plan earlier. Yesterday, Beigong Jiyu sent an urgent report, saying that Ke, the king of the Northern Qiang, Dialing Wushui has promised to send troops to jointly carry out the great cause. Three days ago, a [-] Northern Qiang army set out from Northern Qiang and marched towards Bingzhou, the hinterland of Wenbufan. When Bingzhou was in chaos, Wen Bufan must have been caught off guard. As a result, it was our army who launched a massive attack Great timing!"

As soon as Cheng Gongying's words fell, Ma Chao's lion eyes widened suddenly, and his momentum suddenly increased, and he asked anxiously.

"Military Master, the implication is that our army from Xiliang is ready to march into Guangwei and fight Wen Bufan to the death!"

Cheng Gongying's eyes were shining brightly, and she said with a concentrated voice.

"Under a series of policies from us, and the joint assistance of the wealthy families in various counties, apart from the two counties of Wuwei and Zhangye, which are slightly unstable, the hearts of the people in Tianshui, Nan'an, Longxi, and Jincheng counties have been determined. Each of the wealthy families aroused the anti-enemy hearts of the people in their own villages, and because General Ma opened the granary to relieve the people, reduced taxes and other policies, the popularity of the people increased a lot. The current situation is the time to raise troops.

However, the two counties of Wuwei and Zhangye have been heavily recruited in recent years, so the people complain the most. Before raising troops, General Ma needs to be more careful about the people in these two counties. "

Following Cheng Gongying's analysis, Ma Chao's face was overjoyed, and then he frowned.

"Military commander, the army has already been cautious about opening the granary. If they pump out another ten thousand tons of rations, they may be able to maintain the war with Wen Bufan. Once the rations are in short supply, the army's morale will be in turmoil. The current battle concerns the whole of Liangzhou. Genus, how can we divide the food and grass again, and let the roots of defeat fall!"

"General Ma, Bingzhou is in chaos. With the current Xiliang army of 16 troops, within two months, Wen Bufan will surely be able to defeat [-] troops and drive him out of Liangzhou. With the current food stock in the army, even if the army divides ten thousand The burden is enough to last for more than three months. Wuwei and Zhangye counties are the hinterland behind Liangzhou. If there is a rebellion, we are fighting against Wen Bufan's army on the front line. How can we be invincible?"

Cheng Gongying bowed his hands and moaned in a deep voice.Ma Chao's expression kept changing, didn't he know the truth of Cheng Gongying's words, but not only did he just want to knock Wen Han's army out of Liangzhou and let it go, he also wanted to take advantage of the victory and pursue and capture the entire Yongzhou!

Ma Chao remained silent, Cheng Gongying seemed to see Ma Chao's thoughts, and tried to persuade him again.

"With the chaos in Bingzhou, Wen Bufan will definitely be defeated in Liangzhou. After being hit twice by these two times, it is absolutely impossible to recover the general situation within three years. It will take three years for General Ma to plan for Yongzhou. General Ma, if you want to achieve great things, Why do you need to be in a hurry?"

As soon as Cheng Gongying said, Ma Chao squinted his lion's eyes. This Cheng Gongying's eyes were really vicious. In front of him, Ma Chao seemed to have no place to hide for every thought.

At the same time, Ma Chao's words from the past resurfaced in Ma Chao's mind. At that time, Ma Teng also advised Ma Chao not to rush for quick success, but to give Liangzhou time to recover.Even at that time, Ma Teng suggested that Ma Chao should be first-class for ten years!

Ma Chao's mind was spinning, he had better decide to follow Cheng Gongying's advice first.

"The military adviser's persuasion is very reasonable. According to the military adviser, another [-] dan of grain and grass will be given to subsidize the two counties of Wuwei and Zhangye!"

"General Ma understands righteousness deeply, and it is really a blessing for the people of Liangzhou!"

Cheng Gongying bowed deeply, and felt a little comforted by Ma Chao's obedient attitude to him.Ma Chao is still young, and Cheng Gongying was quite worried about the so-called newborn calf not afraid of tigers. Ma Chao lacks experience, knows no danger, and acts recklessly.But at the moment, it seems that although Ma Chao is young, he has already become a leader several times.

After discussing for a while, Cheng Gongying and Ma Chao made decisions on the most important matters, and then Cheng Gongying withdrew and began to make arrangements.Except for Beigong Jiyu's 14 Qiang soldiers, the [-] army had assembled earlier than Didao, and preparations for supplies and armaments had also been completed.

As for the matter of raising troops to Guangwei, the Xiliang army immediately became turbulent. Ma Chao sent his general Pang De to lead [-] troops from his younger brother Ma Dai as the vanguard, and ordered the prefects of Nan'an and Tianshui to prepare food and grass for supplies.

Pang De and Ma Dai led an army of [-] to rush all the way, and after five days, they rushed to Pingxiang, Guangwei. Pingxiang was guarded by Zhang Liao.Ma Dai, the pioneer in the front of Xiliang Prefecture, led an army of [-], mighty and mighty, all over the mountains and plains.

With a sword, Ma Dai rode his horse out of the battle and ordered the generals in the battle to answer.When Zhang Liao mentioned Fang Tian's painting of a halberd, he galloped his horse like the wind and came out to answer.

"Zhang Wenyuan is here, who are you, Fang Xiaoxiao, please report your name quickly!"

Zhang Liao waved Fang Tian's painted halberd, and his whole body was domineering, awe-inspiring to the Xiliang sergeant.When Ma Dai heard Zhang Liao's name, his heart skipped a beat. Zhang Liao fought in the north and frightened Xiliang.All the famous Xiliang generals who died under his command were famous, and Yan Xing, the 'No. [-] Warrior of Xiliang' was among them.

"It's Ma Zhengxi's Wuping Captain, Ma Dai, Ma Bozhan! Zhang Wenyuan dares to fight!"

Although Ma Dai had lingering fears, how could he retreat in front of the army at this time.Ma Dai took a step forward on his horse and shouted loudly.Zhang Liao's eyes were fixed, but he didn't answer, but his mount rushed up.

The peerless weapon Fang Tian drew a halberd and flew through the air, Zhang Liao rushed to Ma Dai like a blast of wind and fire.Ma Dai hurriedly raised the treasure knife, and with a loud noise, his arms suddenly swelled up.

Zhang Liao was slightly startled, although this Ma Dai is young, but his strength is astonishing, if it is an ordinary first-rate general, he might not be the enemy of this son.But what kind of character Zhang Liao is, Fang Tian's painting halberd suddenly pressed down, and immediately pressed Ma Daibao's sword over.Ma Dai quickly leaned over and avoided Fang Tian's painting of the halberd.

Ma Dai narrowly escaped, and just put away the saber and got up, but Zhang Liao hurriedly raised the halberd, and the halberd swept from behind, Ma Dai was startled into a cold sweat, and raised the saber to block it.With a loud bang, Ma Dai's tiger's mouth shattered, and the precious sword in his hand almost dropped.Zhang Liao smiled coldly, and Fang Tian kept dancing with his halberd, making five consecutive strikes in one fell swoop.Ma Dai resisted desperately, but was killed by Zhang Liao, who was powerless to fight back.

Once the five combo attacks were over, Ma Dai knew that he was not Zhang Liao's enemy and wanted to flee.But how could Zhang Liao do what Ma Dai wished? Fang Tian continued to attack with a halberd, Ma Dai resisted while paying attention to the timing.Seeing that Zhang Liao was about to chop a halberd, Ma Dai swung his horse's head, raised his knife to block it, and fled away.

"Little Ma, it's not a hero who escapes!"

Zhang Liao laughed and scolded behind him, Ma Dai just tried to save his life and escaped into the battle.Seeing this, Zhang Liao hurriedly ordered his soldiers to attack. The Xiliang army was in chaos and fled in a hurry.Zhang Liao led his army to chase after him, and killed Ma Dai's army five miles away. He captured soldiers and countless horses, so he retreated for the time being.

Ma Dai was defeated for a while, losing three thousand soldiers and horses, and the front army was blocked by Zhang Liao.When Ma Dai was restless, a soldier came to report, and Pang De led an army of [-] to arrive.Ma Dai greeted Pound eagerly, saying that he had lost the previous day.When Pang De heard that Ma Dai's opponent was Zhang Wenyuan, his eyes trembled with fighting spirit.

It can be seen that among the soldiers under Ma Teng's command, Ma Dai's martial arts is only inferior to Ma Chao and Pound.Ma Dai also stepped into the ranks of super warriors half a year ago, and comprehended the killer move of Xiangshi.However, Ma Dai is still young, and his own potential is not as enchanting as Ma Chao's, so how can he be Zhang Liao's opponent who will slay Yan Xing.

"Don't worry about Bo Zhan, let's fight against me tomorrow. If I can win against Zhang Wenyuan, you can stand aside. If I can only draw with him, then you can come to help at the right time. Together, we can defeat this man." !"

Regarding Zhang Liao, Pang De didn't dare to trust Zhang Liao, and after giving orders to Ma Dai, he prepared to fight tomorrow.At noon tomorrow, Pang De and Ma Dai led nearly [-] troops to Zhang Liao's stronghold.

Before Pound patted his horse and flew out of the formation, he raised his lion-headed machete, pointed at Zhang Liao who was wearing a rotten silver armor in the formation, and shouted loudly.

"I am under the command of General Zhengxi, Yiwu Zhonglang General Pang Lingming! Does Zhang Wenyuan dare to fight!"

Zhang Liao saw Pang De's red face and beautiful beard, hulking back and majestic appearance, quite similar to Guan Gong, and he immediately thought of Pang Lingming, the heroic general who desperately rescued Ma Teng in the net of Xinping and Li You.

And when Pang De's words fell, Zhang Liao learned that it was this person, his tiger's eyes burst into thunder, and his fighting spirit soared.

"Why don't you dare! Pang Lingming, just watch me, Zhang Wenyuan, take your head off!"

Zhang Liao slapped his horse and raised his halberd to kill Pang De. Pang De also rode his horse and flew to meet him with a sword.At the same time, Ma Dai rushed out and stood not far behind Pound.

Between the flashes of lightning, Fang Tian's painted halberd collided with the lion-headed machete.Zhang Liao's face changed in shock, and he secretly thought that he had a lot of strength.Pang De also frowned, startled by Zhang Liao's strength.

Fang Tian drew the halberd and the lion-headed machete almost at the same time, as if turning into a movie of thunder and light, they collided at high speed, and violent sparks flew out. There are nearly twenty rounds.

Zhang Liao's tiger's eyes were focused all over the place, as if he was playing with great joy, his moves became faster and faster, and more and more fierce.The same was true for Pang De, his fighting spirit was astounding, and he tried his best to overwhelm Zhang Liao.The two killed each other like a match, and all the onlookers were amazed at the high strength of their martial arts.

Another twenties passed.

All of a sudden, Zhang Liao exploded with momentum, as if a strong bloody aura emanated from his body, as if people could see a bloody field full of corpses.Pang De's face changed drastically, and Zhang Liao's outburst of momentum made him feel like he had returned to the battlefield where he fought the 'Unparalleled General' Lu Fengxian two years ago.
