With Zhang Lu in control of the army, he immediately began to prepare for the battle against Wang Kai's army.

At this time, Ma He, who left Nanzheng, came to Chenggu County.

Surprisingly, Ma He actually met his old department in Nanzheng in Chenggu County.

After seeing his old subordinates, Ma He immediately asked him about the changes that happened in Nanzheng.

Coincidentally, Ma He's old department really knew the reason, and he immediately told Ma He about Luo Qing's poisoning of Su Gu.

When he learned that Su Gu was actually poisoned by Luo Qing, who got along day and night, Ma He gritted his teeth and said: "Luo Qing, a traitor seeking glory, if I don't kill him, I, Ma He, will have no shame to face the dead lord." ”

Seeing Ma He say this, his old subordinates immediately continued: "General, we don't have a single soldier now, so how can we talk about avenging the Lord?" ”

"I have a plan in my heart about this matter, and the only one who can resist the Yizhou army is General Wang of Chuyang County, and I can only take revenge if I defect to him."

Seeing that Ma He had given a solution, his old subordinates even agreed.

Immediately after, Ma He took his old department and began to go to Chuyang County.

At this time, Qin Qiong, who led the scouts to Nanzheng, also quickly heard about the changes that had occurred in the city.

Thinking that Nan Zheng had changed hands several times in just a few days, Qin Qiong saw the fighters at a glance, and immediately followed, Qin Qiong immediately sent a scout to rush to Chuyang County to report to Wang Kai, while Qin Qiong himself continued to monitor near Nanzheng County.

As the scouts sent by Qin Qiong returned to Chuyang County, Wang Kai quickly learned from the scouts what Qin Qiong had conveyed.

After some consideration, Wang Kai also felt that it was indeed a good time to send troops to Nanzheng.

Soon, Wang Kai ordered Luo Cheng to quickly gather a large army and prepare to rush to Nanzheng County.

Just when Wang Kai was preparing for the expedition, Ma He came to Chuyang County again to meet Wang Kai.

When Wang Kai learned that Ma He asked to see him, he thought about it and met Ma He.

After Ma He saw Wang Kai, he immediately said to Wang Kai: "General Wang, do you want to send troops to attack the Yizhou army?" ”

Seeing that Ma Yiyi's words were broken, Wang Kai replied suspiciously: "What does Ma Duwei mean by this?" Are you trying to stop me? ”

"No, I, Ma He, came today to defect to General Wang."

"You want to go to me?"

"Exactly!"

"Captain Ma Du is not joking!"

"General Wang, who in the world doesn't know that you are a disciple of General Huangfu, even if I Ma He mixes again, I will not joke about this."

"Oh? Then I want to hear it, I don't know why General Ma wants to defect to me? ”

"General Wang, the ancestor Su Gu was poisoned by Luo Qing, a despicable villain, I want to avenge the ancestor and hate him, but Luo Qing has surrendered to the Yizhou army, and the last general now has no soldiers, if you want to take revenge, you can only use the hands of General Wang, and I hope that General Wang will give me a chance to take revenge."

Hearing this, Wang Kai carefully deliberated on the pros and cons of recruiting Ma He.

When Wang Kai felt that the advantages outweighed the disadvantages, he immediately replied: "Okay, but I have one condition, if I defeat the Yizhou army, you must help me stabilize the people of Hanzhong, and from now on, Hanzhong County will be under the jurisdiction of my Wang Kai." ”

Ma He agreed without thinking about it after hearing this, because after Su Gu's death, Hanzhong County was a group of dragons without a leader.

After receiving Ma He's consent, Wang Kai immediately accepted Ma He with a smile.

With the completion of Luo Cheng's army, Wang Kai immediately led the army towards Nanzheng County.

At the same time, Zhang Lu of Nanzheng also began to strengthen the city wall with the help of Luo Qing.

For a time, there was an atmosphere of tension in Hanzhong County.

After two days of traveling, Wang Kai's army soon came to Nanzheng County to join Qin Qiong.

Immediately after, Wang Kai ordered to camp on the spot.

At this time, Zhang Lu in the city also learned the news of Wang Kaibu's arrival.

Thinking that Wang Kai was a disciple of the famous general Huangfu Song, Zhang Lu couldn't afford to go out of the city for a decisive battle, so he just ordered his soldiers to strengthen the city defense.

After spending the night peacefully, Wang Kai immediately summoned Qin Qiong, Luo Cheng and Ma He.

As the three of them gathered in Wang Kai's main tent, Wang Kai immediately spoke up: "Captain Madu, this Yizhou army is defending the city, do you have a way to help me take the city gate?" ”

"General Wang, the city of Nanzheng County is high and deep, and there is no way for the lower officials."

"This is very difficult, if Zhang Lu has been holding on to the city, it will be difficult for our grain and grass to last."

At this time, Qin Qiong said to Wang Kai: "My lord, the general has a plan in the end. ”

"Uncle Bao, tell me about it."

"Lord, the last general's strategy is very simple, that is, to lure the enemy out of the city, as long as it is not a siege battle, then with our troops, we will definitely be able to defeat the Yizhou army led by Zhang Lu."

"Shubao, I also know that we are stronger in the field, but this Zhang Lu looks like a turtle with a shrunken head, I'm afraid that he won't dare to go out of the city!" Qin Qiong thought about it and suddenly sighed.

At this time, Ma He suddenly remembered something, and he immediately said to Wang Kai: "General Wang, I know how to lure Zhang Lu out of the city. ”

"Captain Ma Du, tell me quickly."

"General Wang, if I remember correctly, Zhang Lu seems to be the third generation of the Heavenly Master Dao, and we can start with the Heavenly Master Dao."

"Heavenly Master Dao? What is this? Luo Cheng interjected.

Seeing Luo Cheng's face full of doubts, Ma He began to explain the origin of the Heavenly Master's Dao.

After listening to Ma He's story, Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng showed a look of sudden realization, while Wang Kai was expressionless, because he had already known about this situation from the history books.

When Ma He saw Wang Kai's expressionless face, he immediately continued: "General Wang, the Heavenly Master Dao has been spreading among the peasants, and its teachings have won the hearts of the people, we only need to forge a Heavenly Master Taoist to smear the Heavenly Master Dao, then Zhang Lu, as the sect leader, will definitely not let it go, as long as he knows that we are smearing the Heavenly Master Dao, Zhang Lu will definitely go out of the city to fight." ”

Hearing this, Wang Kai finally understood, while Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng were a little dazed, because they still couldn't understand.

Wang Kai, who understood it again, immediately said to Ma He: "Ma Duwei, I will leave this errand to you to do, after all, you have lived in Hanzhong for a long time, and only you know how to discredit the Heavenly Master." ”

"The lower officials will not disgrace their mission."

After the arrangement was made, Wang Kai immediately let Ma He leave the barracks.

As Ma He left, Luo Cheng said to Wang Kai very suspiciously: "Lord, isn't this Ma He lying to you, can he let Zhang Lu out of the city by discrediting the Heavenly Master?" ”

"Hahaha! Shixin, Ma He's suggestion is very correct, let's wait for Zhang Lu to go out of the city to find us for a decisive battle! ”

Hearing this, Luo Cheng became even more suspicious.

At this time, Qin Qiong also said out loud: "Lord, the last general doesn't understand the reason very much, can you explain it to us." ”

Seeing Qin Qiong say this, Wang Kai finally began to explain: "Shixin, Shubao, this Heavenly Master Taoist Sect Master's position is like Zhang Lu's throne, do you say that if someone moves his throne, will he not be angry?" ”

"What? Zhang Lu actually established himself as the emperor, this is okay, why didn't the Han court send troops to attack him! ”

Seeing Luo Cheng say this, Wang Kai touched his head and replied speechlessly: "Shixin, I'm just making an analogy, don't be surprised." ”

At this time, Qin Qiong finally understood Ma He's plan a little, and he immediately said to Wang Kai: "Lord, the last general understands a little. ”

"It's good to get it!"

When Luo Cheng heard this, he immediately asked: "Big brother, do you understand like this?" ”

"Shixin, the lord has already made it very clear, don't you still understand?"

Shaking his head, Luo Cheng continued: "I really don't understand! ”

Wang Kai interjected at this time: "If you don't understand, forget it, anyway, we can see the results in a few days." ”

Luo Cheng pouted helplessly when he heard this.
