Ma Chao left again this time, because he knew that the day when Cao Cao issued an edict and the princes jointly discussed Dong was no longer far away. However, if Cao Cao really sent one to himself, then his army would have to make a detour to the place where the princes would meet. So Ma Chao felt that he had to set off earlier, of course, he didn't set off with the Liangzhou army, but prepared to go to Qingzhou, first solved the problem of Guanhai Cottage, and then set off with the recruited soldiers, isn't this a matter of killing two birds with one stone.

If the soldiers don't see blood, it's definitely not good, let alone the people and horses in charge of the Hai cottage. Ma Chao felt that after absorbing the people and horses of Guanhai Cottage, he had to take them directly to participate in a battle like the princes begging for Dong, or they would just occupy the mountain as the king, and then make a small fight, which would not become a big climate at all.

And the people who left with Ma Chao this time are not only Jia Xu, but also Cui An and Zhang Fei, who are strong in martial arts, and Ma Dai, who is also good at martial arts, is a total of five people. As for why he wants to take Ma Dai with him, this is mainly because Ma Dai has just joined Ma Chao's account, and Ma Chao has never seen his own brother, so Ma Chao not only wants to communicate with him more, but also wants to take him to see more people in the world and meet the world for a while.

As for him, Pang De is still in Longxi, and Chen Dao, Wu Anguo and the eighteen sons are also left behind by Ma Chao, after all, there are still a lot of people who are in charge of Hai Cottage at that time. And for Ma Chao, to crusade against him Dong Zhuo, there is really no need for him to be so excited, everyone must go, there is really no need for that. Even if you get to Guan Hai, you have to let a few people go back to Longxian County in the end, and you don't need to go to many people at all, and it's not like this.

Because he knew the result of the most difficult Dao, and of course, he also knew that Dong Zhuo of the Dao did not fight to the end with the princes of the Kwantung region, so it was really a waste of resources to send more people. Of course, Ma Chao's subordinates really want everyone to go, but the number of places is limited, so there is no way to do this. Therefore, after Ma Chao, he only brought a few people, and the others had to stay in Longxian, and it was important to be optimistic about the base camp.

"Are you leaving again this time?"

Mi Zhen hugged Ma Chao's waist behind him, and then asked with her face gently pressed against his back. Because Ma Chao went to Luoyang last year, but fortunately he came back quickly, and Mi Zhen didn't worry too much. But now that my husband is leaving, and it should be farther away, and this time it depends on what my husband means, it seems that he may not be able to come back when.

Ma Chao gently parted her hand, then turned around, took Mi Zhen into his arms domineeringly, touched her face with his hand, and said with a smile: "You know that I don't want to leave you with your husband, but I have to leave!" ”

Mi Zhen nodded lightly, of course she could understand, but she always didn't want to be separated from her husband. So she stood on her tiptoes. pecked Ma Chao's face, "Go early and come back early!" But in the next moment, she was attacked by Ma Chao at once, and then, it became difficult to breathe......

At the gate of Longxian County, Ma Chao and his subordinates who came to say goodbye said goodbye one by one, especially after instructing Chen to them, Ma Chao and the others marched towards Qingzhou. The way was very smooth, and there was no accident to the Guanhai cottage in Qingzhou.

Because Ma Chao went to Qingzhou this time, he didn't inform Guan Hai of them before, of course, Ma Chao still remembered that when he got married, he specially told Guan Hai that he was going to their cottage, if they still remember what they said at the beginning.

"Someone, stop coming, or release the arrow!"

The guards of the cottage saw that Ma Chao and a few people were not passing by, but they were coming towards the cottage, so they stopped talking.

Today's Guanhai cottage is not what it used to be, it is developing rapidly, and there is no need to rob at all, Ma Chao has earned enough money to support them. However, for those rich people who are not benevolent to the rich, Guan Hai Cottage will still make a move, and will never be stingy.

Ma Chao and a few people hurriedly stopped the horse, and then he said with a smile: "Everyone, don't be nervous, don't be nervous!" I am the old man of your cottage owner, I came from afar, and I am here to meet him today! ”

As he spoke, Ma Chao took down the snow drinking knife he was carrying behind him, and the cottage guards thought that Ma Chao was preparing to use force with his weapon at first, but the bowstrings of the archers next to him were pulled apart. Ma Chao looked at it like this, and said in his heart, the precautions are quite strict. But it's really brainless. Can you just hang your spear on your horse, and then you don't use it yourself, and you have to take out your short knife to attack? Isn't this the same as a joke?

"Everyone, don't get me wrong, this knife is a certificate, as long as you give it to your village master, he will know it at a glance!"

As he spoke, Ma Chao held the knife forward, ready to hand it over to the cottage guards. When the cottage guards looked at it, what they said was not necessarily fake, anyway, it was really fake, and then the big boss would know it at a glance. So the guard hurriedly stepped forward to take Ma Chao's snow drinking knife, but he almost didn't hold it steady and fell. Fortunately, the guard's arm strength is not too small, so he is the most reluctant to hold the snow drinking knife with both hands, how did he know that this knife not only looks weird in appearance, but also is so heavy. The guards couldn't stop complaining in their hearts at this time, what kind of people are these, what are they acquaintances of the big bosses? Why is this happening, I almost lost myself as an adult.

After the guard took the snow drinking knife and went up the mountain, after a while, a group of people came down from the mountain, yes, that's right, it was a group of people, all of whom came to greet Ma Chao and his group. The leader is naturally Guan Hai, the big boss of the cottage, and then behind him are Zang Ba, Liao Hua and Wei Ping, and then there is the leader of Guan Hai Cottage, Ma Chao also knows it, and it is Guan Hai's henchmen back then.

Everyone came to Ma Chao and a few people before and after, Guan Hai hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "I don't know if the lord is coming, Hai is far away!" ”

Ma Chao smiled, "Okay, you don't know this, so you don't need to talk about this, let's hurry up the mountain!" ”

"Yes, yes, my lord will follow me up the mountain!"

After Guan Hai finished speaking, the previous guard handed over the snow drinking knife to Ma Chao again, and he now realized that this was the lord mentioned by his big boss. is still so young, it is really "people can't look good"!

Zang Ba and the others also said the same thing, so the group followed Guan Hai to the cottage.

After arriving at the cottage. Guan Hai invited a few people directly to the conference hall, and after everyone sat down, Guan Hai smiled and said, "Don't come to the lord?" ”

"Yes, yes! Come, let me introduce you first, these two Cui An, Cui Fuda, and Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide have all met them. And this is Jia Xu Jia Wenhe of Wuwei, Mr. Wenhe, and this is Fufeng Ma Dai Ma Bozhan! ”

Ma Chao didn't say that Ma Dai was his brother or anything, he felt that it was unnecessary at all, anyway, they would know the Tao sooner or later, and there was no need to say anything about it himself. Then Ma Chao introduced Guan Hai to Jia Xu and them, and after everyone saw each other, Guan Hai said: "Today is finally looking forward to the lord!" ”

Ma Chao nodded, "Yes, that's right, what the old manager said is good!" I should have been here a long time ago, but the time never came, so I didn't come here for a long time! And now, and the time has come, so of course I have to come over right away and take care of everything in the cottage! ”

Zang Ba said: "It's great that the lord is here! Don't hide it from the lord and everyone, we are always looking forward to the lord coming as soon as possible, and then we can all follow the lord to conquer the world together! ”

Wei Ping also echoed on the side, even Liao Hua, who didn't speak much, after listening to the words of a few people, his eyes flashed brightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Although he really hasn't completely identified Ma Chao as the lord, but all these years have passed, and he is not too old, so Liao Hua is actually more mature and understands more than before. If Ma Chao didn't persecute and threaten him back then, then maybe he Liao Hua has already recognized him today. But what happened back then, Liao Hua felt that it was all a shame, so he still couldn't recognize Ma Chao.

In fact, in this matter, whether it is Ma Chao or Guan Hai, they all know some of Liao Hua's thoughts. But there was nothing anyone could do about it, so it became what it is now. But although Liao Hua has not fully recognized Ma Chao, the lord, he will definitely not betray it now, at least he will not do this.

"Yes, it's really made everyone wait for a long time! But today, it's not over, you've been waiting for a long time! ”

Guan Hai continued: "In fact, we can understand the lord, since the lord has never come over before, then he must have his own ideas, so we have been waiting until now." Fortunately, 'hard work pays off', today is finally the lord is looking forward to coming, to know that if the brothers of the road know that the lord of the road is coming, I don't know how happy they should be! ”

After speaking, Guan Hai smiled. He remembered that he dealt with the five heroes of the Zhu family with his lord and the cottage brothers, and now all these years have passed, the five heroes of the Zhu family have all been destroyed, but his cottage is getting bigger and bigger, and all this can be said to be brought by his lord. If there was no lord of his own at the beginning, then his cottage may have been destroyed by the five heroes of the Zhu family a long time ago, and it is not necessarily, how can he still have his own today. Thinking about this, Guan Hai also had to feel a lot of emotion.

Ma Chao smiled and nodded, he knew very well in his heart that the brothers in Guan Hai's mouth were referring to the patriarchs of the cottage at the beginning. Now, after all these years, they still haven't forgotten themselves. At the beginning, everyone fought side by side and destroyed the cottage of the five heroes of the Zhu family together. And Guan Hai also told them that he was their lord, and almost everyone accepted them. But it was the beginning, and I don't know if they can accept it now.

Ma Chao is actually not such a greedy person, as long as half of the people in the cottage can go with him now, he is content. Anyway, half of the people already have nearly 50,000 people, so what is there to be dissatisfied with.

"Alas, it's been so hard for everyone all these years! Super here, thank you very much! ”

Zang Ba hurriedly said: "Why did the lord say this, the ancients said, 'Eat the king's lu, bear the king's worries', we are all under the lord's subordinates, and we should be the lord's worries!" ”

Several other people, except for Liao Hua, also agreed. Ma Chao smiled at this, whether it is Zang Ba, Guan Hai or Wei Ping, or even Liao Hua, who has not yet recognized himself, he can actually be regarded as a talent.

Zang Ba's talent is not in martial arts, but in his strategy, people are quite strategic, not to be underestimated, and the training is not bad, he has his own set.

Guan Hai is that his martial arts are not bad, he was a second-rate and top-class level in his impression back then, so now that so many years have passed, how can he also be a first-class and inferior level. Even if it wasn't, it was definitely not too much. What's more important is that this person has been able to manage the cottage for so many years, and the cottage has always been very calm and safe, which shows that he should indeed have some leadership skills and be able to convince the public.

As for Wei Ping, that's even less to say. He is a talent, good at tracking and discovering, and he is the elite of the scouts, the talent he needs.

The most reluctant, what should he say? Anyway, although Ma Chao knows that he is not good at martial arts, and nothing else seems to be too brilliant, but his longevity, Liao Hua is rare, from the Yellow Turban Rebellion to the late Shu Dynasty, Ma Chao feels that this is his greatest advantage and ability, and no one else can compare to him. It is estimated that when his son takes over him, he will still be able to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions.

"Okay, okay, I'm here today to take you away, so that we can fight side by side and fight on the battlefield!"

"That's great!" Several people said in unison.

Everyone is waiting for this day to look forward to the stars and the moon, and now it is finally "a daughter-in-law who has been boiling up for many years". In fact, everyone's heart is very happy and moved, because his years of hard work have not been in vain, because the lord still remembers himself and did not leave his gang behind, and today the lord is here to take himself and others away. From then on, it can be regarded as "the sea is wide and the fish jumps, and the sky is high and the birds fly".
