Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 369
Xiang Yu rode his horse to fight Ma Chao, led more than a thousand people from his headquarters, opened the gate of the village, and rushed straight towards Ma Chao. Ma Chao was overjoyed when he saw the gate of Li Song's barracks opened wide. Wasn't his pretentiousness just to lure out the people inside? World War I.

In order to regain my lost face, I immediately put the front army as the rear team, and the rear team as the vanguard, spread out word by word, waiting for the enemy to arrive, I even thought out my lines, and waited for the enemy general.

Xiang Yu rushed over, and when Ma Chao saw it, his heart trembled. How could it be this guy? Ma Chao couldn't help thinking of the scene at the Xuchang banquet in the past. He was defeated by the guy in front of him with one move. the pain.

Although when I competed with him, I fought one game first, and my physical strength was exhausted. After thinking about it carefully, I was no match even in the heyday.

"Ma Chao, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I didn't expect that when we meet, we will be on this battlefield. You and I are the masters." Xiang Yu stopped the horse, and the horse bowed its head to eat the grass on the ground.

"I'm not familiar with you! There's no need to get close." Ma Chao said.

"It turned out to be so! Then don't talk nonsense, let's do it directly! But I still advise you to surrender, lest I do it." Xiang Yu said.

"Hmph! I, Ma Chao, have conquered Xiliang, so there is no reason for me to surrender without a fight. If you want me to surrender, you have to ask the gun in my hand whether I will agree or not." It's just for the sake of face, so as not to panic the Xiliang army behind him. At this time, Ma Chao is nothing but a strong outsider.

"It turned out to be so! Then what's the point, just start fighting, come on!" After Xiang Yu said, he threw the Tianlong City Breaking Halberd in his hand aside, and landed firmly on the ground. trembling.

Xiang Yu looked at Ma Chao, exuding an aura of disdain for the world, his sharp eyes were like sharp knives, piercing into people's hearts, so frightened that Ma Chao couldn't help but take a step back, Ma Chao was shocked.

"Brother Song! What are they doing? Why don't they do anything!" Li Yuanba asked as he looked at the two people outside the camp who were talking nonsense for a long time without doing anything.

"They're reminiscing about the past!" Li Song said, actually he didn't even know what they were doing, so he just said it in a perfunctory way.

"Ah!" Li Yuanba looked puzzled, did they know each other?I do not know how?Didn't they want to fight?How do you bring up the old days?
"Look! It's about to start!" Zhang He shouted pointing at the two people outside the camp, and immediately woke up the dazed Li Yuanba. About to start the fight, who would have thought that Xiang Yu would throw the Tianlong City Breaking Halberd in his hand away.

"Report! Report to the general, the enemy Gao Lan and Ba Zang led an army to go to Hexi!" Ma Chao was shocked!But he had to bite the bullet and fight. When he was about to fight, it was reported that Li Song had an army and had set up camp in Hexi.

"Today we have something in the army, so it is inconvenient to fight with you. I will fight with you again in the future, and I will definitely kill you." Ma Chao was shocked, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief. How could Xiang Yu be willing to accept the army and return to the stronghold?

Xiang Yu immediately rode his horse to kill him, and shouted: "Don't go, horse! Let me capture you back." Seeing this, Ma Chao hurriedly ordered his soldiers to stop Xiang Yu.

"No! Ma Chao is about to run, don't let him run away! Open the gate of the village and capture the horse alive!" Li Song shouted when he saw that Ma Chao was about to run.

All the generals gathered their troops and horses belatedly, rushed out of the camp, and attacked the Xiliang army. As soon as the two sides came into contact, the Xiliang army was defeated, but Ma Chao fled before they came, failing to catch Ma Chao. The generals had no choice but to strike back and return to camp.

Ma Chao returned to Tongguan to discuss with Han Sui, and said: "Li Songjun secretly crossed the river while our army was unaware, and set up camp in Hexi'an, but the Xiliang army found out about it."

"In this way, our army will be attacked back and forth. After a long time, our army will be finished. What should we do now?"

Li Kan, one of the Xiliang warlords, said: "It's better to cede the land and ask for peace. The two families will stop their troops for the time being. We will discuss after the winter and the flowers bloom in the spring."

At this time, Li Kan and other warlords had already betrayed their hearts, and temporarily persuaded Ma Chao to cede the land to make peace, so that they could secretly pass the song and take refuge in Li Song.

Ma Chao and Han Sui naturally didn't know what these people were thinking. After thinking about it, Han Sui had no other choice, so he agreed, "Li Kanzhi's words are the best, you can try it before making plans."

Ma Chao was hesitant for a while, he didn't want to go back to Liangzhou in such a desperate way, but now the enemy troops are stationed in the direction of Tongguan, south of the Weihe River, and the Xi'an camp near the Weihe River, and he is surrounded by enemies on three sides. There is a catastrophe of extinction, and it is difficult for Ma Chao to make a decision for a while.

Both Yang Qiu and Hou Xuan saw Ma Chao's hesitation, and they looked at each other. Hou Xuan stepped forward to persuade, "Ceding land and seeking peace is just a way to slow down the troops! After the enemy retreats from Hexi, we can rely on Xiliang and go back to Xiliang. When the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, we will slowly map it out, and then we will be in an invincible position."

Yang Qiu and Hou Xuan saw that Ma Chao was a little moved, so they took turns to persuade him to seek peace and avoid the edge for the time being. After talking a lot, they stopped talking and waited for Ma Chao's final conclusion.

"Okay! According to what you said, cede land for peace!" Ma Chao finally had to agree to cede land for peace.

So Han Sui sent Yang Qiu as an envoy, and went straight to Li Song's camp to write a letter, saying that he would cede the land and ask for peace.

"Prime Minister, please punish! We did not catch Ma Chao and let him escape." The generals failed to catch Ma Chao, so they had to go back to the camp to plead guilty!

"I don't blame you for this matter, it's because I didn't think carefully, so please hurry up." Li Song looked at the generals who were kneeling on the ground begging for sin.

"Thank you Prime Minister!" The generals thanked and got up, Li Song signaled everyone to follow him, and went back to the tent of the Chinese army with hands behind their backs, and the generals followed to the tent of the Chinese army.

"Prime Minister! Why did Ma Chao flee back to Tongguan suddenly, but what happened to Tongguan?" the generals asked impatiently, Ma Chao's behavior today was really too strange.

"When the Xiliang army was not looking, I ordered Gao Lan, Ba Zang and others to lead a troop across the Weihe River and set up camp in Xi'an near the Weihe River to cut off the retreat of Ma Chao's Xiliang army."

"Ma Chao probably knew about the Hexi incident at that time, so he hurried back to Tongguan, presumably to discuss with Han Sui and others how to deal with this matter." Li Song said.

Only then did everyone suddenly realize!I finally figured out why Ma Chao fled back to Tongguan in such a panic. It turned out that there was such a story in it.

"Prime Minister! There is something I don't understand! Please ask the Prime Minister to clarify." A general came out, clasping his fists and saluting.

Li Song saw that this person was Wenpin, Li Song smiled and said: "Zhongye, why don't you understand, but it's okay to say!"

"With the strength of our army, it's not difficult to destroy the current Xiliang army, so why bother!" Wen Pin said, not knowing that he didn't understand, even the people in this big tent didn't understand.
