Lu Bu's Ambition

Chapter 1045 The king can gamble!
In the hot summer, even the breeze blowing under the night is full of heat.

Groups of soldiers on the Xiangyang City Wall stared at the dark night carefully, and from time to time a few rockets were fired from the Xiangyang City Wall to illuminate the dark night in the distance.

Holding the battlements with his hands, Ma Chao stared at the dark night in the distance, as if there was a beast hiding in the darkness.

"Big brother!"

When a hoarse but firm voice came, Ma Chao said without shaking his head, "Brother Dai, hurry up and take a break, you will be on duty later."

A familiar voice came, as if returning to the scene in Xiliang, Ma Dai stretched out his hand to wipe the tears from his eyes with a wry smile.

"Brother, Dai would like to honor the order of elder brother."

I saw Ma Dai standing behind Ma Chao, and said in a firm and deep voice. Although Ma Chao didn't turn his head when he heard it, his shoulders were trembling.

Under Ma Dai's invisible perspective, Ma Chao's eyes were red and his shoulders trembled slightly with excitement. He was aggrieved by being excluded but he could bear it.

After all, he didn't follow Liu Bei from the beginning, even if he was looked down upon by Guan Yu, because Guan Yu's martial arts were not inferior to him, and his command was even more subtle. Of course, it's another matter if the cavalry is fighting.

But the saddest and most painful thing for him is that his brothers lost the friendship they had when they were in Xiliang, and the simple estrangement caused estrangement between the brothers for many years.

But what Ma Dai said directly made Ma Chao full of excitement, resisting the tears in his eyes, took a deep breath, Ma Chao said in a strong and calm voice: "In this case, what if the elder brother insists on betraying the Shu Han? Did Brother Dai also follow?"

I don't know how long I suppressed this sentence, but after saying it just now, Ma Chao felt a sense of relief.

After Ma Dai behind him heard this sentence, he nodded firmly and said in a deep voice: "Follow the elder brother's order, I just ask that in the future, I don't want to be an enemy of Shuzhong. kindness."

it is good!
After holding back for a long time, Ma Chao finally uttered a word, and the pressure on his shoulders suddenly decreased.

"Brother, although I have more than ten thousand troops in your hands, there are not many people who can be trusted, and our soldiers and horses have not controlled the city gate at all."

When Ma Dai stood in his position and described the current situation, Ma Chao shook his head lightly, "Sometimes it may not be necessary to destroy the city of Xiangyang to escape and make meritorious deeds."

How could Ma Dai not understand Ma Chao's words, shook his head and said softly: "The food and grass area is guarded by Jiangdong and Hanwang's henchmen. We have no chance of success."

Ma Chao, who turned around slowly, looked at Ma Dai indifferently, and said word by word: "My Jin Ma Chao is not an ungrateful person."

"Even if I betray Shu, I will not be a villain in vain and stab the King of Han in the back."

The calm Ma Chao was full of pride, and this scene made Ma Dai nod his head firmly, clasped his fists with both hands and said in a deep voice, "No!"

swoosh~
Taking big strides, Ma Chao began to patrol the city again, while Ma Dai, who stayed where he was, looked at his elder brother's back quietly, and the corners of his mouth squirmed slightly, making a sound that only he could hear.

"Brother, you are still the world-renowned Jin Machao, I will shame the Ma family."

Turning around, Ma Dai calmly looked at the night in the distance, and softly shouted to the soldiers in the distance: "Get the bow."

crunch ~ crunch ~
The longbow was slowly drawn into the full moon in his hand. Ma Dai squinted his eyes and looked at the dark night in the distance. The arrow head was flickering with fire. Under the sight of everyone, the place where the hand was holding the arrow tail was engraved with a small letter.

hum~
The sound of the arrow piercing the air echoed in my ears, and at that moment the clear writing appeared on the tail of the arrow!
drop!
A simple drop!However, the speed of the arrow coming off the string was too fast, so fast that the writing on the tail could not be seen with the naked eye.

buzz~
After shooting three arrows at the night in the distance, Ma Dai slowly lowered his longbow, pointed at the illuminated place in the distance and shouted: "Give this general a boost, and no enemy is allowed in the place where one arrow is shot. "

promise!
Wearing leather armor, Ma Dai calmly turned around and began to inspect. No one noticed that his junior was already drenched in cold sweat.

It's midnight!

"My lord, urgent military situation!"

Lu Bu, who was resting on the bed, was awakened suddenly, opened his eyes and saw the figures of Jia Xu and Guo Jia in the tent.

In the scorching summer, even at night, Lu Bu was sweating on his forehead, but at this moment, he couldn't care less and asked anxiously, "What's the matter?"

With a smirk, Guo Jia held a burning arrow in both hands and handed it to Lu Bu.

Lu Bu squinted his eyes and looked at the feathered arrow. It was half a feathered arrow, and it was burnt from the traces.

After receiving the feather arrow, his palm slowly touched the feather arrow, Lu Bu frowned, and the seven points of the arrow shaft were obviously wet.

In other words, the second half of the tail of this feather arrow was soaked in water, so it did not burn out.

And the tail of the arrow has already exposed the gap, or it has been opened long ago.

Pulling out the tail, the arrow shaft was obviously empty, revealing half of the silk scarf. After Lu Bu slowly opened it to look at it, a smile appeared on his face.

At this time, after seeing Jia Xu and Guo Jia's joyful expressions, Lu Bu couldn't help but slapped his thigh and laughed loudly: "Haha~ The big thing is done."

At this time, Lu Bu was still a little sleepy, and his brows were raised again and again, which showed his excitement.

"Who else knows about this?"

After the excitement, Lu Bu couldn't help asking a serious question. Guo Jia smiled and shook his head and clasped his hands: "Report to my lord, this feather arrow was discovered by our scouts and did not disassemble without authorization."

"At that time, Wenhe and I were discussing matters in the tent, so apart from the lord, only Wenhe and I knew about it in the army."

After listening, Lu Bu suddenly showed suspicion, hesitantly looked at the silk scarf in his hand, "Wen He, could this be Zhuge Liang's plan?"

Jia Xu frowned and finally shook his head slightly, "It's hard to judge, after all, horses are really not welcome in Sichuan."

After finishing this sentence, Jia Xu slowly cupped his hands, lowered his head and said each word: "It doesn't matter if it's true or not, the king can afford to gamble, and even more so, he can afford to lose, but Jingzhou can't afford to gamble."

Although it was scorching summer, there was a chill in Jia Xu's words.

Guo Jia on one side also nodded firmly. They are no longer the fledgling boys at the beginning of the year. They have learned when to use and when not to use kindness.

Seeing that the two confidantes under his command agreed, Lu Bu's expression froze and he said in a deep voice, "Okay! Then I'll take a bet."

"Feng Xiaoru secretly went to the army with the order of the lonely hand, and ordered Gao Shun to secretly gather the dead soldiers who fell into the battle. In the past few days, he will feed the lonely and wait for the military order of the lonely at any time."

promise!
"Wenhe, you have been keeping a close eye on Xiangyang City these days, and there must be news from Ma'er."

promise!
