Three Kingdoms New Malaysia Super League

Chapter 1336
Once entering the sheriff's hall, there is a huge sand table.The prelude to the decisive battle of the world has already begun, and it is naturally indispensable for it to be the most indispensable tool for formulating strategies.

However, Ma Chao suddenly realized that the Ma family's sand table was already three feet long and two feet wide.At the beginning, his vision was only limited to Fufeng, but now, on this sand table, there are all the terrains of the fourteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty.

The bigger the field of vision, the more things need to be ignored.But even though the unnecessary terrain of a county and a county has been discarded, the sand table is still densely packed, and the important mountains, rivers, city walls and roads of the states above are clearly visible.

Ma Chao stepped forward to take a closer look, and the other civil and military personnel stood in a circle around the sand table, overlooking the overall situation of the world.Just as Xu Rong was about to explain, Ma Chao signaled that there was no need for it—before he had a comprehensive initial impression, as a leader, he couldn't let other people's opinions be preconceived.

The small wooden figurines of flags on the sand table are full, and the most dense one is naturally the county of Lujiang.Numbers are marked on the small flags, which are the number of troops. The wooden figurines are divided into infantry, cavalry, crossbowmen, and sailors, as well as the names of the leading generals.The illustrations are very detailed. At a glance, Ma Chao has a perceptual understanding of the situation in Lujiang and the world.

"Where has Liu Bei's army gone?" Ma Chao asked Xu Rong without seeing the flag representing Liu Bei's army after scanning the terrain of Xichuan.

"Here." Xu Rong pointed, his face very ugly.

"Liu Bei's main battle force of [-] troops has arrived, and our army only got the information today?!" Ma Chao did have reason to be angry. He was scheduled to be only six days away from Shangyong County in Jingzhou, and it was also a flat road to Jiangling, an important place in Jingzhou, to the east. , the enemy army will approach the border of Jingzhou in a few days, but the own army only learned at this time that it is not an exaggeration to execute the shadow responsible for monitoring Xichuan's actions for such a serious military delay.

However, after Xu Rong's explanation, Ma Chao knew that the shadow was not to blame.There was intelligence earlier that after Liu Bei's army was assembled in Chengdu, it has been dormant in Guanghan.And it is only three days' journey from Guanghan to Yingding, and the efficiency of the shadow of the Ma family can only reach this level if the information transmission time is counted.What's more, even in the era of radio, the battlefield will always be unpredictable and change in a blink of an eye.

"Has Wei Yan from Hanzhong made any moves?"

Xu Rong couldn't answer this question, but Xun You, who was on the side, was already prepared. He stroked his three long beards and replied: "Wei Wenchang has a plan and is good at fighting. Earlier, he used Chen Bingcheng to defend Liu Bei. This time Liu Bei made a big army. Wei Wenchang has already sent a letter to ask the lord if he can start a war and drink Liu Bei."

"Don't reply to his letter for the time being. Wei Yan is bold and Chen Gong is cautious. If the two of them don't reply to the letter, they will naturally follow the trend and stir up some conflicts and disputes to test Liu Bei. They will also be very measured. If the reply is not in time, Liu Bei's army will rush away On the contrary, it will disturb Wei Yan's deployment in Hanzhong." Ma Chao said in his mouth, his eyes turned to the Lujiang battlefield, and he asked again: "Cao Cao has joined forces with Sun Ce?"

"No," Xun You's expression became serious, and he twirled his fingers on his beard without moving, and said, "However, the cooperation between the two families is indeed very tacit. The two armies of Xingba and Wen Zhongye are stretched to the limit, and they already appear to be defeated, if Guo Fengxiao hadn't used tactics several times to cast doubts, I am afraid that my lord would not be able to plan the overall situation so calmly this time."

Ma Chao nodded. He also got some information from Diao Chan about the situation here. Cao Cao used the guise of an alliance to easily move his army into the border of Lujiang River, cleverly avoiding the three major directions of Yingchuan, Luoyang, and Jizhou, which were heavily defended by the Ma family. .As for Sun Ce, he also played a trick to deceive the world: Sun Ce and Sun Quan did not fight against each other. The rumors in Jiangdong disappeared immediately after Cao Cao turned his face and attacked Gan Ning's camp, and Sun Quan took the opportunity to clean up Jiangdong's unruly people again.The seed that Ma Chao planted in Sun Quan's heart seemed to have only sprouted, and hadn't grown to the point of a towering tree.

However, Ma Chao never thought that someone might not be greedy for power, especially Sun Quan, a guy who is extremely good at power.He believed that he had acted too hastily this time. Once Sun Ce's army was defeated, Sun Quan would definitely not support Sun Ce as usual.Even if he thought about it, the confidantes he supported during this period would probably not allow Sun Quan to step down from his high position just like that.

It can be expected that this time is the last piece of trust that Sun Quan of Wu County gave to his respected elder brother.

"From this point of view, the situation is worrisome." Ma Chao frowned. The dense wooden figurines of flags on the sand table gave him a headache: "Now, there are [-] troops from my Ma family outside Xiangyang City. Is it Liu Bei's side, or Lujiang's side?"

"That depends on how big the master's plans are." Sima Yi said, as if the world was already in his chest.

"Annex the world, once and for all!" Ma Chao said immediately, slightly annoyed: "You already know this in your mind, why bother to ask."

Sima Yi didn't take it seriously at all, instead he said with a smile: "My lord also has strategies in his belly, why don't you make it clear at this moment?"

Ma Chao glanced at Sima Yi, then picked up the sand table and set the pole, starting from Liangzhou, pushed Xu Huang, Zhao Yun, and Wei Yan into the Xichuan area; then in Youzhou, Tian Yu's army directly crushed Liaodong; after that, Jizhou Pang De, Yingchuan Gaoshun, and Luoyang Huangzhong Banners were all moved to Yanzhou, Xuzhou, and Yuzhou...

Seeing Ma Chao's moves like this, everyone couldn't help but take a breath. Even though Sima Yi had expected it in his heart, he couldn't help being surprised when he saw that Ma Chao really made the move to start a full-scale war: "My lord has been planning for many years. Is it for this moment?"

Ma Chao nodded: "That's right, this troubled world has lasted long enough, and I can't stand it any longer."

Sima Yi's eyes flashed, and then he was full of pride, pointing Jiang Shandao: "Since this is the case, the [-] troops in the hands of the master are very important. If we can bring the three armies of Cao Cao, Sun Ce, and Liu Bei into our battlefield and fight them decisively, the world will be invincible." It's settled!"

Ma Chao didn't answer with a smile, he didn't have Sima Yi's optimism at all, but his expression was a bit dignified: Why didn't he think of this.It's just that in the current situation, although Cao Cao and Sun Ce joined forces to attack Jiangxia, Liu Bei's army still only hovered outside Jingzhou, and I don't know what their intentions are.If the three families are to reunite smoothly and then fight against them, the Ma family must make some sacrifices.And the more likely result is that the Ma family lost in the final decisive battle, and since then they have lost everything, and suffered heavy losses for several years of hard work.Then the chaos of the world remains, but the distance from the great unification becomes more blurred and longer.

Sima Yi's proposal is not so much a proposal as it is a big gamble.The bargaining chip in Ma Chao's hand is everything of the Ma family, and the bet is that the world will be unified under the Ma family's banner.However, such a gamble is too heavy for Ma Chao, and there are too many unpredictable factors in it. Ma Chao, who has never considered himself a qualified gambler, has been entangled in this for several months.

"My lord, you don't want to gamble?" Hearing Ma Chao's concerns, Pang Tong grinned, "My lord, I'm afraid this matter is out of your hands, you don't want to gamble. But right now, the three of them are clearly the three who are already popular in gambling." The eye-catching gamblers have thrown all the chips in their hands, and they want to settle the game with the lord. If you want to run at this time, I'm afraid you won't be able to."

"how you said that?"

"Look, my lord, Cao and Sun joined forces in Jiangxia, and then went all the way to Xiangyang. Although Liu Bei couldn't bear it, his goal was obviously Xiangyang. The importance of the land of Jingzhou, I don't need to say much, my lord thinks In front of this piece of fat in Xiangyang, the three families will turn around and attack other places of the Ma family?" Pang Tong's stubby fingers circled back and forth on the sand table, and finally stopped the end point of the three families in Xiangyang, and then asked treacherously: "The three families They are all heroes with the ambition to annex the world, and after winning Xiangyang, they will definitely not stand still like short-sighted people, so where does my lord think they will go after that?"

Looking at the direction Pang Tong was pointing at, Ma Chao was shocked all over his body, and blurted out: "It's Chang'an! They will go north to Nanyang, and then attack Chang'an in three ways!"

"That's right!" Pang Tong clapped his hands, and jumped up directly: "They all made it clear that they wanted to fight the lord, so the lord's hesitation made the world look down on you, the Splendid Heavenly General?!"

Ma Chao remained silent. He agreed with Pang Tong's analysis, and he knew that Pang Tong also used aggressive methods against himself.However, there was a bit of flattery in this aggressive method, which made Ma Chao feel a different kind of comfort, and he wanted to speak out about his grand plans.But at this moment, a guard outside the door quickly stepped forward and excitedly announced: "My lord, good news! General Gan has captured Lujiang!"

Ma Chao was overjoyed at first, and then bitter: Can this Gan Ning stop working so hard?Just as you were planning to return to gather strength for a decisive battle, you took down Lujiang again.Throwing it away at this time is really distressing!
