Ma Chao took Zhao Yun, Guan Hai, Wei Ping and Jia Xu, plus nearly 50,000 soldiers to Chuyang, where Zhang Fei and Mi Fang were stationed.

And Zhang Fei and Mi Fang both led the troops out of the city early to greet Ma Chao and his party, of course, including the latest officials of the Chuyang family who defected to Ma Chao, especially the Chuyang Ling, who was no longer young, was very polite to Ma Chao, cautious, nodding his head and waist, and flattering. Ma Chao said in his heart when he saw it, this is really embarrassing for him, such a large age has to be like this in front of his young juniors, alas, this is power, it is strength. Otherwise, why so many people want to be officials, they have to be big officials, I think this should be a very important reason in the eyes of some people.

And when the guards of Chuyang saw Ma Chao, many people were thinking in their hearts that this Liangzhou Mu Ma Chao Ma Mengqi was really just like the rumors. It's a young and promising, a young hero, and what a character. At this time, many people said in their hearts that this Ma Chao Ma Mengqi is older than others, but this status is very different, and it can't be compared at all.

Ma Chao was invited into the city by everyone like the stars and the moon at this time, and after entering the city, Ma Chao listened to the report of Zhang Fei and Mi Fang on what they had done in the past few days, of course, there were no officials from the Weiyang family at this time, and all the people present were Ma Chao's descendants.

"Tomorrow, our army will enter Nanzheng! Lao Guan, I will leave you with 3,000 soldiers to guard the palace. And the others marched to Nanzheng with me, everyone knows it at this time! ”

The 3,000 soldiers Ma Chao said were pure foot soldiers, and the previous 3,000 cavalry, Ma Chao still had to take them away.

"No!"

Although he was reluctant at this time, his lord had spoken, but he had to listen. Before, the lord's brothers and sisters all let the lord stay in Yangping Pass. Ma Dai didn't say anything, didn't he obediently obey the queen, and Guan Hai didn't think that his relationship with his lord was closer than that of his lord's brother Ma Dai.

As for Zhang Fei and the others, they all hurriedly agreed, Zhang Fei originally thought that he would also be left to guard the city, but he didn't like to do this thing the most. It's not that he almost didn't suffocate him to death in the past few days, but fortunately, he is not bored by himself, and there is a Mi Fang Mi Zifang with him, and he is much more balanced. But this time, it's okay, I can go out again, and I won't be defending the city in this ruined city.

In fact, Ma Chao now has to enter the army earlier. Because judging from the latest information from Yizhou, it is said that Ren Qi and Jia Long have been defeated and retreated by the Yizhou army, and it is estimated that they will not be able to support it for many days. To say that it can be supported for more than half a month, Ma Chao feels that it is the best result. He hoped that Ren Qi and Jia Long could defeat Liu Yan, but it was obviously a pipe dream. Now we can only hope that they can support them for a little longer.

However, Ma Chao also knew in his heart that he Liu Yan was now victorious. So could he still be pressed up by the whole army to encircle and suppress Ren Qi and Jia Long? Ma Chao thinks so. Maybe Liu Yan had already drawn out some of his troops at this time, and he was rushing to Hanzhong, and he might not be able to deal with him. In fact, it should be said that with the character of Liu Yan and Liu Junlang's old fox, it is estimated that Bacheng did this.

Therefore, Ma Chao thought that he wanted to capture Nanzheng before Liu Yan's main reinforcements arrived, and this idea was good. But I guess that's not possible. However, during this period, it is necessary to weaken the enemy as much as possible, and at that time, it may not be impossible to take Hanzhong, and then inflict heavy losses on the Yizhou army. Although there are fewer and fewer soldiers available on his side now, after the baptism of these battles. The soldiers have experience, and they are constantly improving, which is also what Ma Chao is more satisfied with-

On the second day, Ma Chao led his troops to Baozhong. Yes, it was supposed to go to Nanzheng, but Ma Chao had already learned that Gao Pei had led troops into Baozhong, and Anyang's reinforcements had also been stationed in Baozhong, so Ma Chao had to pay attention to this.

Nanzheng has a total of four city gates, east, west, north and south, and Ma Chao was originally preparing to besiege three and besiege three and one. Therefore, what Ma Chao is preparing to besiege is the east gate, west gate and north gate of Nanzheng, and the south gate is vacant. Because Ma Chao and Jia Xu both thought that the reinforcements from Yizhou would come from the south of Nanzheng, and it would not be good if they stationed a team there, so it would be better to vacate the south gate directly.

But in this way, it is necessary to always guard against the praise of Gao Pei. Because of the distance between Baozhong and Nanzheng, this must not be ignored, especially now that Baozhong is also stationed with heavy troops, Ma Chao of course understands what Zhang Lu means, what they mean is to let themselves attack Baozhong first, and then come to manage Nanzheng. And their thoughts are right, they really can't look at such an unstable factor on the side, so they must win it.

Ma Chao didn't want to, saying that the soldiers had rested in the middle of the night, and a group of men and horses came from Baozhong to rob the camp. Otherwise, when he was attacking Nanzheng, and then a group of men and horses came from Bao to attack the rear of his camp, wouldn't it be all a problem. Therefore, Ma Chao also knew that the other party had won this game for the time being, at least this time he could only let the other party lead the way.

He also asked Jia Xu, but Jia Xu made it clear that there are two ways, if you want to solve this matter once and for all, that is, directly attack Baozhong, take Baozhong, and there will be no problem. If you want to solve it temporarily, then you need to send a heavy army, stationed under the city of Baozhong, and watch each other all the time, so that it can be done.

However, Ma Chao disagrees with the latter, in his opinion, at this time, his own men and horses are already less than 50,000, if he sends heavy troops to praise Zhongzhong, then how many men and horses will he have to attack Nanzheng? So it must not work, you must know that Nan Zheng of Zhang Lu and Zhang Gongqi is not counted as others at this time, there are 20,000 ghost pawns, and 5,000 reinforcements from Chenggu, so the men and horses who are attacking the city do not have an advantage in terms of numbers at all-

Nan Zheng, at this time, Zhang Lu had already learned the news of Ma Chaobing's entry into the praise from the scout, and he was happy in his heart.

At this time, he smiled and said to Yan Pu, the strategist next to him: "What Mr. thinks, it is really good, now that he has surpassed Ma and Meng Qi, he has entered the army, and Nan Zheng is worry-free for the time being!" ”

Yan Pu also smiled. said: "Shijun is wise and decisive, let Gao Pei lead the troops into Baozhong, this is simply a stroke of genius!" ”

Yan Pu's words were all sincere, and let Gao Pei take 10,000 Yizhou soldiers into Baozhong, which can be said to be counted in one fell swoop, so his master is indeed a stroke of genius.

Zhang Lu hurriedly said a few words modestly, and then said: "Sir, now we should defend Nanzheng, wait for Liu Yan and Liu Junlang's main reinforcements to arrive, and then defeat Ma Mengqi in one fell swoop!" ”

Yan Pu nodded. It should be said that they all think so. They don't really care about what is in the praise, they just use such a city and his high pei to delay time. All they care about is Nan Zheng, and Nan Zheng is guarded. Then everyone is safe and sound, better than anything else. If Gao Pei is concerned, he has some ability. Or be lucky. Then he can hold Baozhong, or he can resist Ma Mengqi's Liangzhou army for a long time, so even if he is powerful, in fact, this is what he wants to see the most.

But if it's unlucky, or if Gao Pei doesn't have enough skills, people won't be able to destroy the city in a few days. Then there is nothing you can do about it, but it has delayed Ma Mengqi for a few days, hasn't it? So no matter what the situation is, in the eyes of Zhang Lu and his Yan Pu, they will definitely not send a single soldier from Nanzheng to support Baozhong or anything. Because Baozhong has long been abandoned in their eyes. It is impossible for his side to send troops from Nanzheng to support the abandoned city.

For them, it is to hold Nanzheng, so support is not to even think about it. Let's not talk about whether the troops can beat Ma Chao, but it is useless to say that the troops are useless, because in their eyes, Gao Pei in the praise is bound to lose, but it is just that they are using him to delay it, what else. They are not afraid of offending Liu Yan, originally Liu Yan didn't pay attention to Gao Pei, even if he died, Liu Yan wouldn't say anything, he could only secretly scold him in his heart for embarrassing the Yizhou army-

Ma Chao has already led his troops to Baozhong, and there are two city gates in Baozhong, one south and one north. And Ma Chao did not camp at the South Gate, because after all, the south of Baozhong is Nanzheng, although Ma Chao does not think that Nanzheng will send troops, but after all, it is better to take precautions. So Ma Chao directly led his troops to the north gate of Baozhong and stationed in the north of Baozhong.

After stationing down, Ma Chao looked at Baozhong City from afar, as if the one on the head of the city should be Gao Pei from Chengdu.

He looked at Gao Pei from afar, and Gao Pei was also looking at Ma Chao at this time. Gao Pei no longer scolded Zhang Lu and them now, he knew that the Dao was useless, and at this time he was thinking about how to hold on to the praise and the day when his own reinforcements came.

At this time, Ma Chao said to Mi Fang next to him: "Zifang, come forward and call the formation!" ”

"No!"

When Mi Fang heard this, she was happy in her heart, and she was finally able to challenge before going into battle.

In fact, for Ma Chao, whether it is Zhao Yun or Zhang Fei, they are all cattle knives, so do you still need to use a knife to kill a chicken? Gao Pei's martial arts, he also learned about them from intelligence, but he can reach the second-rate level, as for his subordinates, Gao Pei has no martial arts, and people who are not valued by Liu Yan can still be stronger than him?

So Liu Yanwei never reused Gao Pei, just because Gao Pei really doesn't have much ability, this is a fact. Martial arts are not good, and there is basically no strategy, so it is strange that Liu Yan can reuse such a person. The only thing that can be done is to be more loyal, but there are still few loyal ministers and good generals in Yizhou, anyway, it is definitely not worse than him Gao Pei.

As for Mi Fang, Ma Chao also knows that his martial arts are now second-rate and inferior, but he has already touched the edge of the second-rate superior. In other words, Mi Fang is now at the peak of the second-rate inferior, and among the second-rate inferior martial arts, he is the strongest, so it is enough to deal with Gao Pei, but can Gao Pei come out of the praise? Naturally, he won't, but can his men really bear it?

Mi Fang listened to his lord's words, and began to clap his horse and call him into battle, if Mi Zhu was to say, he really wouldn't say anything unpleasant, but Mi Fang and his eldest brother are different, so he can say anything unpleasant. After the end, Gao Pei's eighteenth generation ancestors were all moved out, and at this time, Gao Pei's face was red, green, and black. (To be continued......)
