Chapter 29: Night Talk

When Cheng Yuanzhi arrived with the remaining 30,000 Yellow Turban Army, he found that there was a large-scale army of officers and soldiers.

"What about Deng Mao? Where is Deng Mao? ”

Cheng Yuanzhi shouted loudly, wanting to find Deng Mao out, but he didn't want to, an arrow feather shot quickly, he was a spirit, his head was biased, and he could dodge a fatal arrow.

Sima Cuo praised: "Good luck." ”

"You!"

Cheng Yuanzhi rode out of the battle and shouted loudly: "You officers and soldiers, who are powerful and prosperous on weekdays, fish and meat people, what kind of righteous men and gentlemen, heroes and heroes are now?" ”

Zhang Xiu was furious and slapped his horse out: "You thief, you are quite arrogant?" Shoot me! ”

When Cheng Yuanzhi heard this, he didn't say much, he shot with a gun, and the two generals exchanged blows at once, Cheng Yuanzhi actually had the ability to block the power of Zhang Xiu's shot!

"Good!"

Ma Chao stroked his palms and laughed: "Zhang Xiu! If you can't get his head within 10 rounds, this general will demote you! Demote you to be a flag officer, and run with the military flag every day! ”

"Hahaha!"

The crazy complaints from Ma Chao, as well as the cascading laughter in the military formation, made Zhang Xiu's face red, and he couldn't wait to shoot Cheng Yuanzhi!

"General, don't talk about 10 combinations, Lao Tzu's next shot will cut off the thief's head and drink and eat!"

After saying that, Zhang Xiu turned the horse's head, and the tip of the tiger's head golden gun suddenly emitted a fiery red light.

The red light was dazzling, and it pierced Ma Chao's eyes again: "Ah, ah, ah! What a flash! It's so bright! Blind my eyes! ”

At this time, Zhang Xiu, who was galloping on a horse, entered the mysterious realm, and his eyes were full of gold in the fire.

A golden phoenix jumped out and snaked on Zhang Xiu's shoulder!

"Hundred birds and phoenixes!"

Firebirds flapped their wings and neighed, all gathered in the tip of the tiger's head golden gun, and stabbed out with one shot!

Burst!

In an instant, a big hole was pierced in Cheng Yuanzhi's chest!

"Uh, ahhh——!hhh

Subsequently, the flames ignited, burning Cheng Yuanzhi to a place of charcoal.

Su Dingfang and the others were dumbfounded, is this still human?

Can you give birth to flames?

Ma Chao coughed dryly: "This is called... It's called... Air friction, you know? ”

The generals were puzzled: "Huh? ”

Jia Xu thought for a while and said, "It's like... Flint for fire? ”

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! That's what it means! ”

Ma Chao is overjoyed, Jia Xu is smart: "When your speed is fast enough to rub the air, you can produce flames." ”

"I see."

Daqu Shuai was killed, and the remaining more than 20,000 Yellow Turban troops could only surrender, Ma Chaole co-opted these thieves, and his heart was overjoyed, these people are the real Yellow Turban Army, and their combat power cannot be underestimated, not the Yellow Turban melon skin that flowed around in the next few years.

When Ma Chao's army approached Zhuo County, the city gate was opened, and the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang went out of the city to greet them: "Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei led 8,000 volunteers from Zhuo County to welcome the imperial army!" ”

Ma Chaoduan sat on the chariot, looked down at Liu Guanzhang and the others, and said: "Zhuoxian volunteers, brave and extraordinary, can kill the Yellow Turban thief in Youzhou, a great achievement, it is better to go out with our army, he will definitely go to the court, reward meritorious deeds, and award you and other officials!" ”

The three brothers were taken aback, they didn't expect that this majestic team of officers and soldiers would take the lead by a milky little kid?

Zhang Fei, who was still lowering his head, whispered: "It's another thing that is shaded by Mengzu, this is too exaggerated, can you come out to make war merits at such a young age?" ”

Guan Yu, who was standing on the side, stabbed him: "Hugh is talking nonsense, beware of being heard by the other party, cut off your head to sacrifice the flag!" ”

Zhang Fei was so frightened by Guan Yu that he shrank and couldn't help touching his head.

Liu Bei was also depressed, but he couldn't show it, so he could only bow his head and say respectfully: "Thank you general, I don't know the general's name?" ”

Ma Chao smiled and said: "My name is Ma Chao, the word Meng Qi, a native of Longxi County, Liangzhou, last year to conquer the northern Qianghu and Hexi Xianbei, and was rewarded for his merits. ”

"I'll rub!"

Zhang Fei was shocked when he heard Ma Chao's series of official positions, and accidentally amplified his voice: "Cowhide, this doll!" ”

"Huh?!"

Su Dingfang, Zhang Liao and others heard it really this time, Zhang Fei actually dared to insult his young master as a "doll?" ”

"Presumptuous!"

Gao Shun, as Ma Chao's personal guard, went out with a gun and pointed the tip of the gun at Zhang Fei: "You black guy, dare to insult the young master?" I don't want to live anymore! ”

Liu Bei was shocked, hurriedly stood forward, stood between Gao Shun and Zhang Fei, blocked Zhang Fei, and said respectfully: "This lord, my third brother is just a pig slaughterer and a wine seller, and he has always spoken without thinking, and he still looks forward to my lordship. ”

Ma Chao opened his mouth to play a round game: "Okay, I look at the three righteous people, they are all temperamental, they speak more straightforwardly, don't get in the way, Gao Shun, there is no need for this." ”

"Humph!"

Since Ma Chao had spoken, Gao Shun could only drive his horse back to the side of the chariot and defend to one side.

Ma Chao grinned: "Three righteous soldiers, don't invite our army into the city to rest?" ”

Zhuo County is the seat of Zhuo County, with a population of 630,000 in 7 counties, which is far from being comparable to Ma Chao's Wuyuan County.

The entire 9 counties in Bingzhou, the current situation is that Ma Chao sits in 6 counties on the border, plus the Qiang people and Xianbei people who have been plundered everywhere, the total population is only 250,000, and Dong Zhuo sits on the best Taiyuan, Shangdang, and Yanmen 3 counties in Bingzhou, with a total population of 570,000.

And a Youzhou Zhuo County, with a population of 630,000, is prosperous and rich, far exceeding the rule of Ma Chao and Dong Zhuo.

After getting used to the bitter cold and miserable conditions of Liangzhou and Bingzhou, and then looking at the prosperity of Zhuo County, Ma Chao's inner jealousy is like a big stove, burning brightly.

Ma Chao's generals are all from Liangzhou and Bingzhou, and they have never seen such a scene, and sure enough, the land of the Central Plains, with its abundant products, is the goal of the Hu people.

In the Zhuo County Taishou Mansion, the Taishou set up a banquet to entertain Ma Chao, Liu Bei and others.

Although Zhang Fei has a bad mouth, he has a straightforward temperament, and he drinks wine in a big bowl and eats meat, which is very appetizing to Ma Chao's generals.

Ma Chao's generals, Su Dingfang, Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun, are all generals who are strict with themselves, although they drank a lot of wine, they were not so drunk that they couldn't walk, and after saying goodbye to Ma Chao, they helped Sima Cuo and Zhang Xiu all the way back.

Jia Xu accompanied Ma Chao, and together with Liu Bei, helped Guan Yu and Zhang Fei back to the house.

After helping the two big men to the bed, Liu Bei was drunk and confessed: "I'm bothering the general, Bei, instead of the two righteous brothers, make amends to the general." ”

"Brother Xuande doesn't need to be polite."

Ma Chao waved his hand, pointed outside, and said, "I'll wait for 3 people, go to the pavilion to sit for a while, and talk for a while?" ”

In the stone pavilion, Ma Chao, Jia Xu, and Liu Bei sat down, Jia Xu poured a cup of tea for the two people, Ma Chao took the lead and said: "If there is chaos today, and the yellow turban thieves are messing up the whole country, Brother Xuande, what do you and the other three brothers want?" ”

Liu Bei replied: "Bei is a descendant of the Han family, so he naturally wants to lead the volunteers to fight the thieves, help the Han family, and set things right." ”

Ma Chao nodded: "That's right, but I mean, what do you want to do after the Yellow Turban Thieves are over?" ”

This son, although he is young, has he already thought so far?

Is he tempting me?

When Liu Bei heard this, his face was bloodless, but fortunately it was in the dark night, and he couldn't see it, and said: "The Yellow Turban Thieves are over, and Bei naturally takes his two righteous brothers back to the township and makes a living. ”

Jia Xu knew what Ma Chao wanted to do, so he said: "Xuande, and your two righteous brothers, obviously have the courage to crown all armies, and they are also bold and ambitious, so why should they be cheap themselves, but they will live for the rest of their lives?" ”

These two masters and servants are not easy to deal with, Liu Bei pretended not to understand: "What does Mr. Wenhe mean?" ”

Jia Xu continued: "It's better for three righteous men to join our army together. As Xuande said before, Kuang Fu Han Room, to be right! ”

"This... This! ”

Liu Bei was taken aback, he didn't know how to answer, and in the house, Zhang Fei suddenly raised his voice: "Bah! The thief is gone! Your Grandpa Zhang is here! Hahahaha! ”

Liu Bei smiled and said, "It must be my third brother, and he also wants to serve the court in his sleep~"

Ma Chao picked up the teacup, slowly took a sip of tea, and smiled without saying a word.

Jia Xu knew that this was no longer the time to continue talking, so he ended this night talk.
