The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 755 754 True and False
At the time of Yezi, everything was developing towards normal. For Ma Chao, this was extremely good luck, because Zhang Fei and Fazheng did not see through his scheme. Although someone was watching them, they He didn't care at all, and had been waiting patiently.

At an instant, there was a cry of an owl outside Jiange Pass. The sound was a little hurried. Ma Chao and others were stationed near the city gate. When they heard this sound, they knew it was time to act.

Ma Chao walked out of the crowd alone, went straight up the tower, first glanced at the night sky in the distance, and then came to Li Yan and Liu Xian who were in charge of guarding the city, cupped his hands respectfully and said: "Two generals, my subordinates A message has been sent to me, it is time to act, kill Pang Tong and Xu Huang, just tonight, I hope the two generals can keep their promises, return our horses and weapons, and let us out of the city!"

Liu Xian already believed in Ma Chao and was very loyal to Zhang Fei's orders, but Li Yan was different. He looked around Ma Chao and felt that this matter was a bit strange, so he asked: "Dare to ask General Ma, are you How do you know it's time?"

Ma Chao stretched out his slender arm, pointed his index finger at the dark night sky in the distance, and said slowly: "Look, there is a light in the distance that flickers on and off. This is the signal my subordinates gave me. This is the signal." It means that all the Qiang people who stayed in the camp of the Han army have all supported me, as long as I have their help, why not take the heads of Pang Tong and Xu Huang?"

Li Yan and Liu Xian looked in the direction Ma Chao pointed. That direction happened to be the place where the Han army was stationed, and it was indeed as Ma Chao said. up.

After Liu Xian saw it, he immediately said to Ma Chao: "My lord has ordered that it is not impossible to give you horses and weapons, but it is necessary for your army to withdraw from Jiange Pass first. Only in this way will we send the horses and weapons you need Return all the weapons, so as not to cause trouble in the pass and hurt the peace."

Ma Chao nodded, and said: "These are all discussed by General Zhang and I. If this is the case, then respect is worse than obedience."

Afterwards, Ma Chao assembled his team, and under the arrangements of Li Yan and Liu Xian, they withdrew from the Jiange one by one. Then Liu Xian also returned all the horses and weapons confiscated to Ma Chao and others to them.After that, the gate of Jiange was closed.

There was a faint smile on the corner of Ma Chao's mouth, and he quickly left the Jiange with Pang De, Ma Dai and other [-] cavalry, took off in the night, and gradually disappeared into the darkness.

On the city wall of the Jiange, Li Yan and Liu Xian were staring closely at Ma Chao's leaving figure, but they didn't notice that Zhang Fei had already appeared beside them.

"Ma Chao is gone?" Zhang Fei spoke quietly next to Li Yan and Liu Xian, which surprised them.

"My lord, Ma Chao has already left with the remnants of his troops. Before he left, he left a message saying that the heads of Pang Tong and Xu Huang must be brought today, and then please prepare a banquet for the lord." Liu Xianyiwu Dozenly repeated to Zhang Fei what Ma Chao said when he left.

Zhang Fei nodded silently, and said: "During this period of time, pay close attention to the enemy's movements, and report to me immediately if there is any disturbance."

"Here!"

After saying these words, Zhang Fei left the city wall, went down the tower, and returned to Guanya to rest.And Liu Xian and Li Yan are closely watching the movement outside the pass.

Half an hour after Ma Chao left Jiange, the Han army camp in the distance suddenly burst into flames, shouting and killing everywhere. Liu Xian, Li Yan and others lay on the city wall, vaguely seeing the chaos in the enemy camp. Kill each other, and the leader is none other than Ma Chao.

But seeing Ma Chao's heroic posture, his spear kept shaking, calling for countless cavalry behind him to rush left and right, taking advantage of the situation to cover up and kill the Han army, while on Ma Chao's side, there were almost all Qiang people in uniform.

Not long after the battle took place, Zhang Fei took Fazheng to the tower again, looking at the chaotic situation in the Han army camp a few miles outside the city, he was very happy.

"Hahaha... It seems that Ma Chao really has two brushes..."

After dawn, the battle outside the Jiange had already ended for an hour. Ma Chao was actively counting the casualties outside the pass, and cleaning the battlefield. Holding two bloody heads and leading a hundred guards, he galloped to Jiange pass, and shouted to Zhang Fei on the pass: "General Zhang, the heads of Pang Tong and Xu Huang have been brought, please General Zhang has a look!"

On the Guancheng of Jiange, Zhang Fei looked at the two bloody heads from a distance, and saw that the hair on the head was fluffy, covering half of the face, and the head was covered with blood, so it was impossible to see what it looked like.

So, Zhang Fei asked Ma Chao to bring the head closer to the city and let him have a closer look. Ma Chao did not refuse, and sent someone to bring the head to the bottom of the city wall. Put the heads of Pang Tong and Xu Huang in the bamboo basket, and then they pulled them up.

After a while, Zhang Fei saw the heads of Pang Tong and Xu Huang at close range, and looked carefully. He couldn't recognize Pang Tong's head because he had never seen Pang Tong before. It seems that they are seven or eight points alike, and it can basically be determined that this person is Xu Huang.

At this time, Zhang Fei had no doubts about Ma Chao, so he laughed loudly and said to Ma Chao: "General Ma is really powerful, he can kill Xu Huang and Pang Tong in such a short period of time, it is really admirable." .Since General Ma has brought the heads of Pang Tong and Xu Huang, then General Ma's goal has been accomplished. May I ask what General Ma is going to do next?"

"Without the shackles of Pang Tong and Xu Huang, I will naturally be able to command the whole army. I brought these Qiang people back from Liangzhou, and I will naturally bring them back to Liangzhou. The relationship between General Zhang and the Han army The war is a matter between you, and I will definitely not intervene at will in the future. General Zhang’s kindness last night, Ma has already reported it. From now on, we will not owe each other, and I hope that we can truly love each other cooperate."

Zhang Fei didn't take much notice of Ma Chao's words, but he had to admit that Ma Chao had indeed helped him out of the current crisis. As soon as Ma Chao's army retreated, he would bring his subordinates to counterattack quickly, thus occupying Hanzhong. The foundation, the development with great concentration, waits for the good opportunity.

At this time, Ma Chao closed his hands towards the Jiange and said, "General Zhang, I am leaving today. As an ally, shouldn't you come out to see me off? Besides, I have something important to talk to you about. I hope General Zhang can do it." Let's go out of town and talk!"
