Chapter 307 I want five buckets of rice

I want five buckets of rice!
Just five short words hit Ma Dai hard in the heart like five heavy punches, causing Ma Dai's complexion to change drastically.

As we all know, Zhang Lu's Five Dou Rice Religion got its name from the need to pay five Dou rice to join the religion.After so many years of Zhang Lu's painstaking efforts, his congregation spread all over Shu and Yongliang, but his power still remained in this small area of ​​Hanzhong and did not develop much.

But this time it was different, Ma Chao's power had been dealt an unprecedented blow, Zhang Lu really wanted to annex Ma Chao's powerful army for his own use.

After Yang Ang arrived in Ji County, he saw that Ma Chao still had a lot of power, so he kept holding back. But now that Ma Chao's army had clearly shown signs of decline, he had to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"Master is benevolent, as long as everyone in my Five Dou Rice Sect is blessed by Taoist ancestors, they will be invincible." Yang Ang said slowly in a very magnetic voice, his eyes were full of humility and awe, "When I came , Shijun said that Meng Qi and Zhiyue are both people in my way, I think this statement is true, Zhiyue...what do you think?"

Ma Dai knew that if he handed over five buckets of rice, he would become Zhang Lu's subordinates. With Zhang Lu's influence among the congregation, they would only be at the mercy of others in the future.

But if you don't hand over five buckets of rice...

"Let me think about it." Ma Dai sighed, "This matter is very important, I want to tell my brother."

Yang Ang smiled and nodded, then said in a low voice:

"It's better for Zhiyue to decide as soon as possible. I heard from my fellow clan that the people in Ji County have been a little...not stable recently."

Yang Ang's family is Yang Fu, and this person has always had a good relationship with Ma Chao. If he said that people's hearts are not stable, then... it seems that Ji County has a big problem.

"I'll send someone to deliver a letter to my brother as soon as possible, and don't worry about Yang Jijiu."

"Hey, I'm waiting for good news from General Ma."

.

Although Ma Chao had a very unpleasant quarrel with Agui, he also knew that Agui was his important supporter, so he must not tear himself apart with him, and he was even more worried that he would be plotted against by Chang Diao.

He had been staying there to show his relatives, and sent people to inquire about the news from time to time. His subordinates were relieved when they heard that Agui had successfully crossed the river, and hurried back to pass the news to Ma Chao.

When Ma Chao heard that Chang Diao hadn't resisted, he just called Agui over and frowned.

"It's over?"

"Yes!"

"Did that dog thief Chang Diao not send anyone to stop him?"

"That's right." The subordinates said happily, "I heard that King Song and General Agui fought bravely to be the first, but Chang Diao didn't dare to resist, so he could only leave the looted property and run away in the rain!"

"Escape?" Ma Chao pulled over the map and carefully looked at the terrain on it.

Chang Diao came out from Longshan, if he escaped, wouldn't he go back to Longshan again?
"Is there any news about Ling Ming?"

"For the time being, not yet, but general, don't panic. Chang Diaoshu is already a bereaved dog. He already has few soldiers. If he dared to enter Longshan, he was attacked by inside and outside, and he was killed without leaving any behind?"

Ma Chao stood up abruptly, his already serious face was even more gloomy.

"No, go to Xingguo!"

Ma Chao was teased by Chang Diao several times before, convinced that Chang Diao was no ordinary person, this time he quit Xingguo without any resistance, and Ma Chao immediately realized that this was a trap.

Presumably, Agui's temper could not be persuaded by others, so Ma Chao decided to go out in person to bring Agui back!
The generals were very dissatisfied with Ma Chao's inexplicable judgment, and came to persuade Ma Chao to calm down.

Ma Chao looked at the reaction of the crowd, feeling a little sad in his heart.

In the past, what he said was what he said, but after several defeats, his soldiers had already had great doubts about his use of troops, and even came to fight against Ma Chao one after another.

In desperation, Ma Chao could only personally lead a cavalry of less than 2000 people to set off first, and go to the river crossing to see the situation first.

Xianqian was very close to Changli River, so Ma Chao braved the light rain and rushed to the river. In less than an hour, he immediately saw a large number of soldiers, supporting each other in groups, as if they were fleeing from famine. ran over.

"What happened!" Ma Chao had already realized that something was wrong, and his face was a little nervous.

Those defeated soldiers all knew Ma Chao, and hurried forward one after another, saying painfully:
"General Ma, it's not good. The Changli River was flooded. We were cut into two sections. Many people crossed the river at night and were swept into the river!"

"What!" Ma Chao was taken aback, jumped off his horse immediately, grabbed the soldier by the collar, and asked angrily, "What bastards! Who told you to cross the river at night? Are you looking for death!"

"King Song and General Agui both ordered to cross the river, and we dare not refuse.

I seem to have heard people say that Xingguo has a lot of Changdiao's abandoned jewels, so... that's why I crossed the river at night! "

"Crazy! Are you crazy? Are you crazy!"

After days of heavy rain, normal people can imagine that the river will rise.

Agui has lived in Xingguo for a long time, and it's not that he doesn't understand hydrology. He must know that there will be floods during the rainy season. The rain has been so heavy these days, he should have moved long ago, at least let the follow-up troops wait after crossing the river, how can they ask people to cross the river at night!
Ma Chao felt dizzy for a while, but he could understand the crux of the problem.

The profit makes the mind faint!

The profit makes the mind faint!

The Guanzhong Allied Forces were disbanded because of the distribution of interests before, and they were killed to pieces like a joke.

The same is true now.

As long as the coalition forces are united together, there will definitely be conflicts of interests. If these interests cannot be handled well, then...

Ma Chao felt sad.

He can't point the finger at anyone.

Because Ma Chao himself is the one who can't handle the relationship with the coalition forces the most.

His previous operations were astonishing. He killed Ma Teng first, and then turned against Han Sui because of a petty profit. Now his allies are getting fewer and fewer, but his enemies are getting stronger and stronger. Yan's depression accumulated in his heart, making it even more unbearable for him, and he almost vomited blood.

There is still hope!

Maybe, maybe Agui is not dead yet, I...

"Immediately, immediately order the whole army to attack. When the flood recedes, I will immediately go to Xingguo and rescue Agui!"

.

The heavy rain that lasted for ten days finally stopped, the sky cleared up, and streaks of golden light shone through the clouds to the land of Liangzhou. The busy people had no time to appreciate the magnificent scene, and hurried to work in the fields.

And the fighting on this land also began to tell the winner little by little. The chess players who ruled the fate of countless people have gone through fierce competition, and the balance of victory has gradually tilted towards Guan Ping, who represents the big man.

After Xu Huang successfully entered Shangbei, Pang De decided to give up Longshan and go back to meet Ma Chao first, at least he still had hope of keeping Ji County.

But to Pound's helplessness, Guan Ping didn't want to give him this chance.

After the flash flood ended, Guan Ping's army dug up the mountain road blocked by mud and sand, and pursued Pound's rear team with all their strength.

A large number of Pound soldiers had nowhere to go and had to surrender. Guan Ping calmly recruited these soldiers and learned about the current situation in Xiliang through them.

These Liangzhou people were quite hostile to Guan Ping and the others. They faltered and made up all kinds of things to deceive Guan Ping, but Guan Ping was not affected in the slightest.

Because he now has a very knowledgeable person in his hands.

On this expedition, Guan Ping kept Han Jiuer by his side. The woman from the Hu Qiang land looked at these hostile soldiers, couldn't help smiling, and patiently chatted with them in proficient Qiang language.

The villagers are always easy to talk to when they see the villagers. When these Qiang people heard that the woman in front of them was Han Sui's daughter, they immediately showed awe, and Han Jiu'er also skillfully gave them a step down.

"Before, the heroes of Guanzhong raised troops and elected Han Dudu as the leader to jointly fight against Cao thief. Seeing that Chang'an was defeated, the great cause was about to be achieved. Who led the crowd to destroy the good situation and let Cao thief succeed? It was Ma Chao.

Now that Ma Chao is here again, how many lives will he waste in vain?

Dudu Han is old, and he must entrust his affairs to General Yun. General Yun is powerful in Liangzhou, and his skills are far superior to Ma Chao. My family, why don't you want to anyway?Could it be that Ma Chao is so kind, and Dudu Han is not our Liangzhou family? "

No matter what era it is, it is a shameful thing to help outsiders beat your own family. Most of those Liangzhou soldiers were not recruited by force. Although they were captured, it was difficult to accept the reality for a while, let alone turn around and start following Outsiders beat their own family members, so they are quite hostile to Yunshan.

But when they heard that he was Han Sui's son-in-law, and Han Jiu'er said that Han Sui was going to entrust him with the affairs of his death, these people suddenly felt a lot better.

Both Han Sui and Ma Teng were big figures in Liangzhou at that time, and they have always been respected by Liangzhou people.

This time Ma Chao cut off with Han Sui, even Pang De was quite dissatisfied, and many people in the army opposed this matter, complaining repeatedly for Han Sui.

Although Yunshan had a fight with Han Sui before, it is quite normal for Liangzhou warlords to fight each other. Maybe they will make peace soon, reconcile again, and manage Liangzhou well in the future.

Thinking of this, these Liangzhou people stopped being hostile, and began to tell the situation in Pang De's army according to Guan Ping's request.

Hearing that Chang Diao went deep into the rear and attacked Agui of Xingguo in Changlichuan area, Han Jiuer was shocked and paled:

"No, this Agui is the king of Di, with a violent personality and the most vengeful.

He is friendly with the Qiang people, as long as he gives an order, tens of thousands of Qiang people will be killed in an instant, Chang Junshi is in danger now. "

Guan Ping looked at the map carefully and felt that there were three big heads.

Chang Diao wouldn't want to rob and run away from Sichuan, and leave this mess to me, would he? I hope he can escape.

But...

Chang Diao has done more than one or two outrageous things before, and he can end up with quite good results every time. This time is the same, Guan Ping is even full of confidence in him.

"Well, it's not a big problem." Guan Ping slowly put away the map, and said with a serious face, "Mr. Chang will definitely not be trapped by such thieves, um, he must be helping me cut off Pound's retreat.

Pass my general order, set off quickly, we still have a chance to catch Pound! "
