After the people came out of the forest with the horses, although they were still far away from Ma Chao and them, they still shouted loudly to them: "I heard the name of Fufeng Ma Chao Ma Meng Qi for a long time, and when I saw it today, it was really worthy of the name, and the name was worthy of it!" Hahaha! ”

Ma Chao also laughed, but said in his heart, as for guarding himself like this, he won't do anything to you. Besides, there are three or four thousand men and horses behind you, are they all decorations? As for.

"Hahaha! Your Excellency, could it be Zhang Ren? ”

Ma Chao immediately asked, but he also knew that this person would not be Zhang Ren. But he didn't know who it was.

However, the person who came nodded and replied: "The state pastor is really wise, and Zhang Ren is below!" Now I am here to wait for the state pastor, I want to see the style of the state pastor! Now I have to see the state pastor, what a blessing for three lives! ”

When Ma Chao heard this, he continued to laugh and said, "Your Excellency is talking nonsense here in broad daylight? Your Excellency is really Zhang Ren? Is it really a three-year-old naughty boy in Benzhou? That's ridiculous! ”

When someone heard this, they couldn't laugh anymore at this time, and said that they had a flaw somewhere? Or is it ......

The person who came thought to himself at this time, he Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi had definitely never seen General Zhang, but why did the other party decide that he was not General Zhang. But what he didn't understand didn't think about anymore, so he said directly: "Alas, the state pastor is really as wise as a torch, but he didn't deceive the past!" Yes, it is not General Zhang who is under the account, but under the account of General Zhang, and the surname Liu Mingbi is under the bottom! ”

Ma Chao nodded after hearing this, so he continued, "It turned out to be General Liu. But I don't know what General Liu is doing here? ”

Liu Bi smiled slightly, "Don't you dare to be the state pastor to call the general like this, I just waited for the state pastor's army here on the order of General Zhang, but now that the task has been completed, I will leave!" ”

As he spoke, he bowed his hand to Ma Chao's side, and then said to the Yizhou sergeant behind him: "Let's go!" ”

So the other party retreated in a puff of smoke, and Wu Anguo wanted to lead his troops to chase after him, but Ma Chao quickly stopped him, "Wu An must not be reckless." Don't act rashly! ”

Guo Jia couldn't stop nodding on the side, and he said to Wu Anguo: "Since the other party dares to ambush here, then he must rely on it." And General Wu'an took a good look, the other party was cavalry in addition to archers, although in terms of combat power. Our cavalry is not afraid of their men, but the other side is well prepared. If we rush into the army. I don't think I'll take advantage of anything. And do you know that Zhang Ren really only has these ambush soldiers, in case there are still a few batches of such teams in front of him, then it will be ......"

Speaking of this, Guo Jia shook his head slowly. In fact, there is another aspect he didn't say, that is, although he didn't come from afar, he also came here from Mianzhu. It's been a long march, so the soldiers are a little tired. But the enemy army is obviously waiting for work here, so the other party has an advantage. And their own side is obviously at a disadvantage. So at this time, no matter what the other party's reason was, he didn't move his troops at the end of the year, and retreated directly. In fact, if you think about it carefully, this is actually good for both parties.

Wu Anguo understood this, he nodded, and said in his heart that this is indeed the case, and he is still a little impulsive. If his father-in-law thinks that there is no problem, then he would have arrested the previous one named Liu Bi a long time ago, and he could still be so arrogant. Yes, anyway, in Wu Anguo's eyes, what Liu Bi said before was a manifestation of arrogance, and he just looked unhappy-

And Liu Bi returned to Ruoxian with the Yizhou sergeant, and at this time he was returning to his general Zhang Ren.

"How have I done what I have told you?"

When Zhang Ren saw that Liu Bi was back, he knew that he had completed the task he had assigned to him. However, I have to let Liu Bi explain the specific matters to himself, so that he can be clear.

Liu Bi said: "General Hui, that's ......"

So Liu Bi told Zhang Ren everything that happened after he ambushed the soldiers, and after Zhang Ren listened, he nodded, and then said: "Okay, I already know about this matter, so you can lead the troops back, go down and rest first!" ”

"No! Subordinates retire! ”

After speaking, Liu Bi retreated. As for Zhang Ren, to be honest, he was quite satisfied with Ma Chao's performance at this time.

Yes, letting Liu Bi ambush the soldiers in the middle of the way was actually an act of him Zhang Ren deliberately testing Ma Chao and testing him Ma Mengqi. He didn't think that he could control Ma Chao's army with just a few thousand people, and Zhang Ren was not so arrogant. And he mainly tested Ma Chao in three places, the first is of course the ambush soldiers, if he Ma Mengqi is still careful and careful, he will definitely be able to find the abnormality of the woods. So if he can't even find this first one, then he can only say that he Ma Mengqi is really disappointing.

But fortunately, Ma Chao found out first. As for Zhang Ren, he didn't know that this was Guo Jia's credit, so he just thought that Ma Chao found this.

And the second, it is Liu Bi who pretends to be Zhang Ren. Zhang Renzhi said that Ma Chao had never seen him, so of course he didn't know his appearance, so he deliberately asked Liu Chao to pretend to be himself to see how Ma Chao reacted and whether he could be fooled. If he Ma Chaozhen was deceived and thought that Liu Bi was himself, then he had nothing to worry about. But this, he Ma Mengqi was not deceived, but he was still recognized by him, and he knew that Liu Bi was not himself. So at this point, Zhang Ren is satisfied with him, and this level has passed.

As for the third after the last, that is Ma Chao's attitude towards his ambush. As a result, Ma Chao didn't chase after him, and the two parties were at peace with each other and said goodbye peacefully, which is actually the best result, and everyone is happy, right? And Zhang Ren also thinks that this is the best result, and there is nothing else. He didn't think that his thousands of people could pose much of a threat to Ma Chao, but he also didn't think that the army brought by Ma Chao would wipe out his ambush army.

So no matter what, in short, my own temptation was very successful. And he, Ma Mengqi, is indeed qualified to fight with him as a hostile, and he is looking forward to him at this time, looking forward to the arrival of his Liangzhou army.

This is Zhang Ren, he simply tested Ma Chao's ability. The result was indeed not much different from what he thought, so he was really looking forward to fighting Ma Chao. And now there are less than 30,000 Yizhou sergeants guarding Luo County on his side, and as for Ma Chao's side, he also knows that there are 30,000 horses at most. Therefore, Ma Chao does not have any advantage in terms of strength. So Zhang Ren wanted to see how he could take away such an important county from his hands! If he really has such a ability, then he admires him, he didn't say it!

When Ma Chao led the army to the city of Luoxian, he directly ordered the army to set up camp. Then, of course, I continued to rest, after all, I just came from Mianzhu and arrived in Ruoxian, so it was impossible to go directly to attack the city. Even if it is a temptation, it is impossible to do this, and Ma Chao would never do this under normal circumstances.

At night, of course, it was still strictly guarded against Zhang Ren's army coming to rob the camp. But in this regard, in fact, Ma Chao and Guo Jia both think that Zhang Ren will not act like this, just "prevent problems before they happen", you have to be cautious, don't you.

Sure enough, Zhang Ren didn't do this, he didn't bring a large army to rob the camp at night. In fact, of course, Zhang Ren also knew that Ma Chao's Liangzhou soldiers were tired, but he didn't think that he could destroy the Liangzhou army in one battle, so he didn't want to do this. And what he wanted to do was to hold on to Yuxian, and the last thing was to force Ma Mengqi's Liangzhou army back, so this was actually a victory. Is there anything more stable than this, at least Zhang Ren can't think of it for the time being.

Generally speaking, Zhang Ren did what he felt more sure of, so for the sake of safety, he did not take the army to rob the camp, but closed the gate of Yuxian City tightly, but strictly prevented Ma Chao from attacking the city at night.

This thing that is in other people's places, when it comes to Zhang Renhe, it is all reversed. Because whether it was Yan Yan or Lei Tong and Deng Xian, but after Zhao Yun came with troops on the first day, he went directly to the camp at night. However, Zhang Ren did not do this, he asked the soldiers of the Yizhou army to always be on guard against Ma Chao to attack the city at night. I don't know what to say about Zhang Ren, anyway, he is indeed safe enough to act like this, at least there is nothing wrong with this.

After Ma Chao's army rested for a day, on the second day, Ma Chao let the army continue to rest, because he was indeed bottomless at this time, and his own side did not have an advantage, how could he take this county. This is too difficult, and Guo Jia doesn't have any good ideas. Could it be that you can only attack it? Ma Chao knew that he didn't have many available soldiers in his hands now, so he lost a few less. He was also distressed, it is estimated that if this is the case, even if he arrives in the city of Chengdu, there may be four or five thousand people left to say more.

So, on the second day, Ma Chao continued to let the army rest. On the third day, the fourth day, until the fifth day, Ma Chao's first company let the army rest under the city of Yuxian for more than four days. This is the first time that he has been like this since he sent troops to Yizhou, starting from Jiameng Pass, and until now.

And whether it is Wu Anguo or Guo Jia, they can actually see their lord's worries. So Guo Jia is going to find an opportunity to talk to his lord, if the army has been stationed under the city like this, and there is no action at all, it will really be bad for his side. (To be continued......)
