Three Kingdoms: I don’t want to fall in love in troubled times

Chapter 149 Open and honest
"That"

Hearing this, Ma Chao scratched his head and said something that even he didn't believe, "What if Zimao can't beat Yang Qiu?"

At least for now, he still simply wanted to help.

Whether Yang Qiuzun abides by the agreement with his father doesn't matter at all in his heart - or in other words, his father's affairs don't matter at all. He just wants to win the battle gloriously in front of Xu Zimao, and then repay the favor he owed him once. Return it.

You Xu Zimao save my life, I will give you half of Anding County.

This matter was done in a grand and open manner, which was very in line with the Ma family's style of doing things.

But Zi Mao suddenly proposed to go it alone, and Ma Chao's wishful thinking was no longer possible.

It's like that friend you haven't seen for a long time when you were a student suddenly said that you want to get together. Then you quickly combed your hair like an adult and put on a handsome suit. You thought it was a great meeting between successful people, but it turned out that He took you to a dark Internet cafe without hesitation, saying that it had been a long time since graduation, leaving you in formal attire at a loss, looking like a parent who came to arrest his child.

This feeling of trying hard to show off but failing, is really quite powerless.

"Don't worry, I can handle it." Looking at Ma Chao's look, he thought he had really underestimated him. Xu Jiashu tried to persuade him patiently: "There are only two thousand soldiers under Yang Qiu, which is a bit of a threat. After he leaves, he will Without the backbone, it is impossible to defend this half of the county, and perhaps only Linjing County will be a little more difficult."

"I don't mean to look down on Zi Mao." Seeing his misunderstanding, Ma Chao quickly explained: "Look, I brought so many men here just to repay Zi Mao. Wouldn't it be ridiculous to go back in such a dejected manner?"

To put it too much, his life and reputation were given by others.

At least until there is an inevitable conflict of interest between the two parties, there is no intention of becoming an enemy.

Xu Jiashu, who was watching on the sidelines, couldn't help but start to wonder - could I be overthinking?

It has to be said that after what happened to Meng Da, his impression of historical figures gradually became more stereotyped.

After all, if a person can leave a strong impression on future generations, there must be a reason for it.

And Ma Chao was a ruthless character who fought all his life to satisfy his ambition and finally killed all [-] members of his family. No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like the type of person who repays his kindness.

Therefore, Xu Jiashu was mostly on guard against him.

But now it seems that is clearly not the case.

"But Yang Qiu has abided by the agreement with your father. Logically speaking, you shouldn't send troops." Xu Jiashu smiled at Ma Chao in the simulation and said, "And I have a hobby."

Hearing this, Ma Chao was startled, "What's your hobby?"

Xu Jiashu looked into his eyes and said word by word, "I like others to owe me something."

Good guy, is it so straightforward?

This level of openness and honesty shocked Xu Jiashu who was watching - he told Ma Chao clearly that he was unwilling to let him return the favor.

"."

"I just want to help Zi Mao." The young general in silver armor and white robes was silent for a while, then raised his head and asked, "Why do you need to say such things?"

What he wants to say is, why is it necessary to be so raw?
"I can tell that you are a very dangerous person," Xu Jiashu continued in a shocking tone, "Don't get me wrong, danger is not a bad thing, especially to survive in such troubled times, danger is a necessary quality."

Just think about it, for a person who has no ability to hurt others, is his tolerance an act of kindness?

No, this is just another word for incompetence.

Only by having the ability to harm others but actively choosing not to do so can you develop the virtue called "restraint."

Ma Chao shook his head, "I still don't understand."

"Ambition is a good thing, but I don't want to see you swallowed by ambition," Xu Jiashu said lightly, "So I want you to always be in debt to me, so that if one day you destroy yourself, at least I can stand up and stop you. Qualifications."

If another person dared to speak to him like this, Ma Chao's first thought would be how to cut him into minced meat, but Zi Mao said this, so he chose to calm down and think about it first.

"Although I don't understand what Zi Mao means," he considered, "but I am willing to listen to you."

Even though it was a simulation, Xu Jiashu felt an inexplicable sense of guilt - the words were too harsh, he was only a teenager!
The scene changes and it's time to say goodbye.

Ma Yunluo stood next to Xu Jiashu and waved to his brother with a smile, "Remember to pick me up next time~" "." Ma Chao felt a vein popping up on his forehead, "Come home with me!"

"I'm not going back." With everyone in Wushi County behind her, the brown-haired girl arrogantly put her hands on her hips, "Anyway, you will definitely have to fight everywhere, so I might as well stay here and play."

Of course, this is only a superficial reason.

In order to maintain the relationship between her brother and Xu Zimao, the girl does not mind continuing to act as a messenger between the two families.
Well, by the way, I can learn a thing or two from Lu Lingqi here.

Ma Chao looked at everyone for help.

"My sister is smart and cute, and we all like her very much." Her Royal Highness the Princess smiled and said, "There is no harm in staying here as a guest with us."

"That's it!"

Ma Yunluo nodded frequently, almost writing the words "that's right" on his face.

"That being the case," Ma Chao saluted with his spear raised, "I am just a compatriot sister. Please Zi Mao and you guys take good care of me."

"Let's go, let's go." Ma Yunluan jumped over and patted "Li Feisha" on the butt, "Don't miss this good time."

Until Ma Chao's figure disappeared from the sky, Xu Jiashu once again confirmed his thoughts.

You know, although the brother and sister often have quarrels due to their relationship during adolescence, as brothers and sisters from the same mother, among Ma Teng's many children, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are dependent on each other. They can safely leave Ma Yunluo in Wushi. County is enough to explain Ma Chao's attitude.

Although she took the initiative to stay and play, she unintentionally acted like a hostage.

[Ma Chao withdrew to Hanyang County and concentrated on attacking to the west. At the same time, you attacked Jingyang and Linjing counties to the southeast. The momentum was overwhelming. With Ma Yunlu's presence, the relationship between the two families entered the honeymoon period. 】

In other words, even if Xu Jiashu said something that seemed to be repulsive to others, not only did the two of them not become estranged, but they became quite candid.

The legendary Jin Ma Chao has a surprisingly good personality?

Having solved this big problem, Xu Jiashu felt a lot more relaxed and continued reading.

[Soon, news came from Guanzhong that Dong Min was successfully assassinated by Yueqi Colonel Wu Fu. Li Ru was furious and led Han Sui to rush into the city and confront the Northern Army. The two sides were at war.]

Xun Gongda!

Xu Jiashu slapped his thigh - this time he actually got it done!
Regardless of history or previous simulations, the assassination initiated by Xun You ended in failure - mainly because Dong Zhuo's force value was too high.

When he was young, he was a fierce man who could shoot a bow with both hands. There are only a handful of people who can do this in the history books. He also traveled to the Qiang and Di clans single-handedly, made friends with foreign leaders, and gained a great reputation in Liangzhou.You must know that Dong Zhongying does not have an ancestor named Ma Yuan. As a self-made son of a good family, at least the early Dong Zhuo was the template of a young hero, perhaps even better than Ma Chao at this time.

Even the fat Dong Zhuo was not something Wu Fu, a Yueqi captain who had worked his way up from civil service, could kill, so he said he couldn't do it (bushi).
But Dong Min was different. He didn't have a heroic profile like his brother. Now that he died at the hands of Wu Fu, Xu Jiashu was not surprised at all.

This was a duel between the two great counselors Li Ru and Xun You. At least judging from the simulation, Xun You won.

Xun Gong Dasheng had kept a low profile for half his life. When he really took action, no one was prepared for him, so he launched a fatal blow from the dark!
However, the situation in Chang'an City was completely detonated - the top officer of the Northern Army assassinated the Dong family's spokesperson, and there was no possibility of peace talks between the two sides. Expanding, the conflict between the scholars and the Dong family was inevitable. Not public.

Although the scholars only have one force of the Northern Army, their advantage is unity. As long as the three opposing coalition forces have problems, they will have the opportunity to break up and defeat each other.

Xu Jiashu continued to read.

[Wang Yun and Ma Rixi, the main branch of the Ma family in Maoling, wanted to instigate Ma Teng. Ma Teng sent people back to Xiliang and informed Ma Chao to lead troops eastward. Ma Chao was attacking Longxi County, so he refused to listen. 】

Good guy, this guy really doesn't care about his father's life or death.

It belongs to be a filial piety person
[After Ma Yunluo learned the news, he asked you to send troops to help his father. You tell her]

[[-]. Look up and down, "Do you understand what I mean?"]

[[-]. "If your brother isn't going, why should I, an outsider, go?"]

[[-]. "I am about to return to Chang'an and let the world know who I, Xu Zimao, am!"]
