The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 708 Hidden dangers after the fierce battle of 707

Zhang Fei and Ma Chao returned to their camps, and both sides stopped their troops. Today's fierce battle can be described as shocking, weeping ghosts and gods, and even the onlookers were thrilled. Witnessed for the first time.

Ma Chao returned to the camp under Pang De's support. As soon as he entered the big tent, his servants immediately brought up food and drinks for Ma Chao to enjoy.

When Ma Chao and Zhang Fei fought fiercely all day, they only cared about being excited. They finally met such an opponent, and they couldn't bear to leave. After fighting again and again, they were so excited that they even forgot to eat and drink.

When I returned to the barracks, my whole body suddenly felt like a deflated balloon. I was tired, thirsty, and hungry. It turns out that he has already overdrawn his physical strength, but he is only supported by a wave of excitement.

Seeing this situation, Pound was very surprised, thinking that Ma Chao was injured somewhere, he hurriedly supported Ma Chao, and began to check whether Ma Chao was injured.

But Ma Chao was completely intact, without any scars, so Pound asked strangely: "General, what's wrong with you?"

"I think, maybe I was too excited and exhausted all my strength. Now I'm tired and hungry, and I almost don't even have the strength to speak..." Ma Chao glanced at the food on the side, and hurriedly said , "Get me something to eat..."

Pound hurriedly brought all the food and drink to Ma Chao's side, and helped Ma Chao to sit up, but Ma Chao's hands had no strength at all, and he couldn't even lift things. It can be seen that Ma Chao's physical strength was exhausted. so powerful.

In desperation, Pound had no choice but to come to feed Ma Chao himself. Ma Chao ate and drank like a hungry wolf, and then he gained some strength and said to Pound: "For a while at night, I'm afraid I'm powerless..."

"Then don't fight. The general fought that Zhang Fei for a whole day, and he couldn't tell the winner. This is the first time. And that Zhang Fei is also very powerful, and he didn't lose the slightest bit of wind. Being able to be like the general shows that he is not an idler. It seems that the rumor that Zhang Fei is an enemy of ten thousand people is indeed true." Pang De said.

Ma Chao said: "This man's martial arts is so high that I have never seen it before. He is a formidable opponent... However, only such an opponent can make my blood boil, can make me fight hard for a day, and my physical strength is exhausted to this extent... I think , he should be the same as me now, right?"

Just as Ma Chao guessed, as soon as Zhang Fei returned to Jiameng Pass, he immediately fell off his horse and fell heavily to the ground.Such a scene immediately surprised Peng Tuo, Huang Quan, Li Yan, Liu Xian and others, thinking that Zhang Fei was seriously injured.

But it wasn't until everyone carried Zhang Fei into the house and examined it carefully that they realized that Zhang Fei was not injured, but that he was so exhausted that his whole body collapsed, and he couldn't even lift his arms. up.

Thinking about it, Zhang Fei and Ma Chao fought fiercely for a day without eating or drinking. He is an iron man, and his physical strength will be too much, not to mention that Zhang Fei and Ma Chao are just mortals.

Afterwards, everyone brought food and drink to Zhang Fei. After Zhang Fei was full, he took a rest, and after recovering his physical strength for a while, he said to everyone, "Have you made arrangements for the night battle?"

"My lord is already like this, are you still thinking of arranging a night battle?" Huang Quan stopped him, "My lord should take a good rest tonight, and make another plan tomorrow. The lord has also seen Ma Chao's martial arts, and he is very satisfied." It is impossible to take it down in a hurry. What's more, Ma Chao's subordinates still have an army of [-]. If we want to fight recklessly, it will not be good for our army."

"Arranging a night battle, you must not break your promise!" Zhang Fei insisted that he didn't seem to listen to Huang Quan's words.

Huang Quan glanced at Li Yan, Li Yan understood, and immediately said: "My lord, the last general has sent someone to inform the enemy just now, and the night battle has been cancelled..."

"Who gave you the courage..." Zhang Fei wanted to get angry, but his physical strength didn't allow him. He wanted to sit up, but found that it was already very difficult. His voice was not too loud, and he looked extremely exhausted.

Huang Quan said: "My lord, your physical strength is too exhausted. I think that Ma Chao, who is equal to you, will not be much better. If we send someone to tell the other party to cancel the night battle at this time, maybe Ma Chao will accept it..."

Before Huang Quan could finish speaking, Peng Tuo came in from the outside, holding a letter in his hand, and shouted loudly as soon as he entered the door: "My lord, Ma Chao sent someone to shoot the arrow book, and the night battle tonight has been cancelled." , Said that we will have a showdown on the battlefield next time."

"When is the next time?" Zhang Fei asked feebly.

"It wasn't mentioned in the letter!" Peng Tuo said.

After receiving Ma Chao's letter, Zhang Fei finally breathed a sigh of relief, and lay down to rest with peace of mind.

But in fact, Ma Chao didn't send a letter at all, but Peng Tuo sent a letter to Ma Chao, saying that there would be a truce tonight and a showdown next time.

Ma Chao was worried that he would not be able to fight at night, so Zhang Fei offered a step down, so he immediately agreed.

However, after today's battle, both Ma Chao and Zhang Fei were full of praise for each other's martial arts, and they felt a little sympathetic to each other.

The next morning, when Zhang Fei woke up, it was already noon. He was so tired yesterday that he fell asleep so deeply. Although he was able to wake up by himself today, the stamina left by yesterday's martial arts competition was still alive. Zhang Fei only felt that The muscles are a little strained, and when I exert a little force, my arm hurts unbearably.

Thinking about it, I have never fought so hard before. After a fierce battle yesterday, it seems that I have exhausted my physical strength for this month. I am afraid of losing in front of the opponent, and I am also afraid of losing someone on my side.You don't need to work hard, it really doesn't work.

Zhang Fei stretched, jumped off the bed, put on his armor, and opened the door. The guards at the door saw Zhang Fei coming out, and immediately saluted, "See my lord!"

At this time, Peng Tuo, who had been squatting outside the door, came over and said to Zhang Fei: "My lord, the meal is ready, please go to eat quickly, my lord!"

After speaking, Peng Tuo brought Zhang Fei to the hall, and a hearty breakfast appeared in front of Zhang Fei.

After Zhang Fei gobbled it up, he ate his fill, touched his bulging stomach, and suddenly remembered something, and asked hastily, "Peng Tuo, what time is it?"

Peng Tuo replied, "A quarter of noon."

"It's already noon, why did I sleep for so long?" Zhang Fei said to himself.

But when he thought about the physical exhaustion yesterday, he felt relieved, and Zhang Fei continued to ask: "Did Ma Chao send someone to fight today?"

Peng Tuo shook his head and said, "No!"

Zhang Fei touched his arm and pressed his biceps hard. He thought he had a very high physical fitness, but yesterday's battle not only consumed so much energy, but also strained his muscles. Ma Chao is evenly matched with him, so he probably has the same problems as him.

Maybe it was because of this that Ma Chao didn't come to fight. If he didn't rest for three to five days, he might not be able to recover.

While the two were talking, the sound of war drums suddenly came in. Zhang Fei was startled, and hurried out of the hall, and asked outside, "Who is beating the drums?"

At this time, a soldier hurried in from the outside, with a flustered expression on his face. After seeing Zhang Fei, he hurriedly saluted and said, "My lord, Ma Chao is here, and he is fighting in front of the pass again!"

What are you afraid of?At first, Zhang Fei thought that Ma Chao was the same as himself, stretching his muscles too much, but he never expected that Ma Chao would come to fight again at this time. If so, wouldn't it prove that Ma Chao's physical strength was stronger than his own?

"Go out and see!"

Zhang Fei hurriedly asked Peng Tuo to put on a helmet and armor for him, and then, holding a Zhangba snake spear, rode a steed and galloped outside.

When he came to the gate, Zhang Feifei jumped off his horse and threw back the Zhangba Snake Spear in his hand. He was followed by his own soldiers, and he quickly walked up the tower.

The city tower was full of soldiers, Huang Quan, Li Yan, Liu Xian and others were all there. As soon as Zhang Fei climbed the city wall, he went straight to Huang Quan, Li Yan, and Liu Xian, shouting and complaining. Said: "Ma Chao is fighting before the pass, why didn't you inform me?"

"See my lord!" After hearing Zhang Fei's voice, Huang Quan, Li Yan, Liu Xian and others turned around and looked over, but saw that Zhang Fei was already fully clothed and walking very fast, while Peng Tuo was closely following. Behind them, they saluted in unison.

"Free gift!"

Zhang Fei walked to the city wall and looked down the tower. He saw a large army of soldiers walking outside Jiameng Pass. One of them was wearing an iron helmet and holding a big knife. He was riding a tall horse and standing in the front. , but not Ma Chao.

Not Ma Chao?

Seeing such a scene, Zhang Fei also breathed a sigh of relief. Ma Chao didn't come. It seems that Ma Chao should be the same as him, but his muscles were strained, so he didn't dare to come to fight.That also means that Ma Chao is not much better than himself.

"Who is this person?" Zhang Fei looked at the military general in front of the pass. Although he was not Ma Chao, he still asked with concern. You must know that those who have the courage to come to fight are by no means mediocre.

Liu Xiandao: "This man's name is Pang De, he is Ma Chao's general, and he is in the pass, and he is the lord..."

"Ma Chao looks down on people too much. He didn't come by himself, but let a general come to fight! I'll go down and get his head!" Zhang Fei said dissatisfied.

"My lord, you can't kill a chicken with a sledgehammer. Besides, fighting with a general is a disqualification of the lord! The general is willing to go and fetch this person's head and present it to the lord!" Li Yan volunteered.

Zhang Fei was silent for a moment, and felt that it would be better for Li Yan to come forward. It just so happened that he had a muscle strain and was not suitable for the battle.So, he said: "That's fine, but this person dares to fight me, he must be good at martial arts, so be careful!"

"Here!" Li Yan responded with a punch, and then went down the city wall.
