Ma Chao didn't react for a long time, and the lack of food shocked his army's heart, every time the soldiers of the Wen Army called for surrender, many Xiliang soldiers would unconsciously give birth to a strange color, and the number was still increasing. Pang De was everywhere, and when he saw the soldiers like this, he was anxious, and hurriedly went to find Cheng Gongying. Cheng Gongying's face was extremely complicated, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly asked Pang De to accompany him to see Ma Chao.

The shouting and scolding outside the city like a huge wave is still coming. Ma Chaoshi's face continued to twitch, and the fire energy contained in his whole body made the whole person look like a volcano.

Suddenly, a soldier came to report, Cheng Gongying and Pang De came to see him, Ma Chao's eyes suddenly burst with joy, thinking that Cheng Gongying had a powerful plan to turn the tide, and hurriedly sent the two to see him.

After a while, Cheng Gongying and Pang De walked in one after another, Cheng Gongying's expression was extremely solemn, and his brows were sad, which was a clever plan. Ma Chao's heart suddenly cooled, but he still suppressed his urgency, and first asked Cheng Gongying how to solve the urgency in front of him.

"Wen Bufan no longer has to worry about merging states, and he already has Guangwei as a base in Liangzhou, so that he can continue to confront our army and be invincible. On the contrary, our army has never had a strategy to break the enemy, and the current army is short of food, and the army is panicked, but I am afraid that it will be a stalemate with the civilian army again.

General Ma, it is better to cede the land and ask for peace, and give it to Guangwei County. The two families should each strike their troops and survive the winter, and when the harvest is in the autumn of next year, don't make any plans. ”

Cheng Gongying arched, his head bowed down, and his words were filled with endless unwillingness. Ma Chao's eyes widened and he shouted loudly.

"Cheng Gongying!! Cut the land and ask for peace, what is the difference between this and the extraordinary surrender!! He is so humiliated, I would rather die here than destroy the thief!! ”

"General Ma!!"

"I've made up my mind, I'm going to say it again!!"

Ma Chao shouted angrily and retreated into Gongying, and Pang De hesitated beside him, not knowing whether to persuade or not.

"Ling Ming! Nowadays, the army is unstable, you lead a group of soldiers and horses to patrol around, but anyone who hears the talk of surrender will be killed!! ”

At this moment, Ma Chao suddenly turned to Pang De, Ma Chao gave this order, how dare Pang De persuade him, but after accepting the order, he withdrew from the hall.

Wen Han scolded outside the city until dusk, and when he saw the panic of the Xiliang army in the city, his sword eyes shimmered, as if he could illuminate the whole night. Wen Han's move today is based on the plan of the drama talent.

Since the prosperity of Hedong, displaced people from all over the world have flocked in, and many of them have come from Xiliang. From the mouths of these displaced people, after many inquiries and calculations, it is expected that there must not be much grain in Xiliang at this time. Later, I learned from some newcomers that Ma Chao was in various parts of Xiliang and opened granaries. Xi Zhicai immediately guessed that this must be Ma Chao's move to appease the people and stabilize the rear before the war. After thinking about it carefully, it was expected that the Xiliang army would not have much food, and the reason why he still dared to start a war with Wen Han under this circumstance was because of the chaos and annexation of the state according to the Beiqiang disaster, forcing Wen Han to withdraw his troops and return, and then the Xiliang army took advantage of this grand situation to attack.

But things backfired, Ma Chao's wishful thinking was good, but the final result of the state ended with a complete victory for Gao Shun's side. Xi Zhi thought of this, so he designed to teach Wenhan to use the shortage of grain and grass and the results of the battle to attack the Xiliang army at this time, and at the same time use the method of agitation to lead Ma Chao to attack. If Ma Chao was really angry, with the chaos of his army and the low morale at that time, he would definitely be defeated by Wen Han.

It's just a pity that Cheng Gongying saw through Wen Han's radical method and saved the Xiliang army from a catastrophe. However, the drama was calculated, and it was always linked one by one, until it was counted to the end. Today's Wenhan's attack is just a part of the drama talent's plan!

At night, Wen Han led the army to retreat, and when he returned to the camp, Wen Han suddenly called Zhang Liao.

"Wen Yuan, the Xiliang Army is in turmoil nowadays, and it is too busy to take care of itself. You can lead the army away! ”

"The last general commands!"

Zhang Liao had already made preparations. At this time, as soon as Wen Han's order fell, Zhang Liao received the order, stepped out of the tent, called the accompanying Hu Che'er, and the two quickly led the army away from a secret place in the camp.

After that, Shiri Wenhan divided his troops day and night, shouting and scolding under Pingxiang City, Ma Chaoqiang couldn't bear it, but he didn't send troops, and blindly didn't move.

Five or six days later, the food supply of the soldiers in Pingxiang City was urgent, and in order to suppress the turmoil, Pang De killed hundreds of deserters one after another, but the signs of desertion were still not reduced, and the number was increasing sharply every day. At this moment, a scout suddenly came to report.

Yan Wenhan has an army, and he has set up camp in the south of the city. Ma Chao was shocked, and quickly sent someone to call Cheng Gongying to discuss.

"Wen Bufan is cunning and insidious!! He actually took advantage of the false army to go down to the village in the south of the city, and was attacked by the enemy before and after Pingxiang!! In addition, the soldiers' rations are running out, and the army's morale is chaotic!! What can I do!! ”

The Wen army was pressing forward step by step, coupled with the urgent situation of the army, Ma Chao's anger had long been covered by impatience and panic. Ma Chaojun's face was pale and colorless, with a sad face, and it seemed that he was about to collapse.

"The eldest husband can bend and stretch, and in the past, Gaozu was persecuted by the Xiang Dynasty repeatedly, and there were countless shames, but he could endure and swallow it, so he won the world. How can a general be disregarded for a momentary mistake! If the general wants to avoid a catastrophe, he must cede the land and ask for peace. Otherwise, in the current situation, how can our army have the power to return to heaven! ”

Cheng Gongying was concentrating, and every word was solemn, as if he had completely forgotten Ma Chao's thunderous evil state that day, and mentioned the matter of ceding land and asking for peace again.

Maybe Ma Chao was really forced to be helpless, he groaned for a while, and then asked quickly.

"Wen Bufan has so many advantages at the moment, I'm afraid he won't stop there!"

"General, don't panic, even if Wen Bufan has more advantages, there are still 80,000 Xiliang troops in Pingxiang City, if he really forces us to be cornered. 80,000 soldiers, all of whom have the heart of burning jade, fight against it. Even if Wen Bufan can win, it will be a miserable victory, and the remaining troops are more than 20,000, so how can he attack the remaining counties in Liangzhou.

In addition, Cao Mengde and Yuan Benchu have been fighting for nearly a year for a long time, once the winner is decided. In order to take care of the hinterland of the rear and beware of the winner of the two, Wen Bufan must save a large number of troops. It can be seen from all of the above that Wen Bufan is likely to accept the proposal of cession of land and peace! ”

Cheng Gongying counted and analyzed, Ma Chao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard it, at this moment, how could Ma Chao, who is famous in the world, have the arrogance of contempt for the heroes of the world on weekdays.

Although this is the case, the so-called eat a trench, grow a wisdom. Ma Chao has gained a lot of arrogance because of this desperate situation, and at this time, his heart is not as irritable as usual, he only hopes to solve the current crisis, and then, as Cheng Gongying said before, put up with it for a while, and then seek a great cause! It's not terrible to fail, it's terrible to lose the ambition to make a comeback.

"What the military advisor said is reasonable, so for the time being, he will first cut the land and make peace with that extraordinary text. When the harvest is sufficient next autumn, we will regain the lost land and crusade against the thieves! ”

When Ma Chao decided to cede the land and ask for peace, the gloomy color of the lion's eyes faded a lot, and it regained its new brilliance, and the whole person looked much calmer than before. Cheng Gongying secretly praised that as long as he was given more time for this sturdy lion cub to grow, he would be able to grow into a lion who could compete for the world in time!

So Ma Chao sent his younger brother Ma Dai as an envoy and went straight to Wenzhai to write a book, saying that he would ask for peace. Wen Han seemed to have expected it, and with a light smile, he led the crowd out of the camp to meet each other, and he was especially enthusiastic about Ma Dai, without the slightest hostility. Ma Dai was very restrained, and his posture was a little humble. After everyone saluted, Wen Han asked Ma Dai to settle down. Ma Dai knew that he was shouldering a heavy responsibility, so he didn't dare to be lazy, and hurriedly mentioned the matter of ceding land and asking for peace.

Ma Chao wanted to cede a county of Guangwei, hoping to temporarily extinguish the war. When Wen Han heard this, he laughed, as if he was just talking to Ma Dai about common things, and said with a smile.

"Haha. There is no urgency in this matter. You go back to Pingxiang first, and I will repay you in the future. ”

Ma Dai frowned, Wen Han's attitude made it difficult for him to guess, and Cheng Gongying also instructed him before, Wen Han is the best at attacking, and when talking with him, he must not be deeply entangled with him, otherwise it is very easy to mess with himself.

Ma Dai thought about this, and didn't dwell too much, and after giving a salute respectfully, he resigned.

As soon as Ma Dai walked on his front foot, Li You's eyes lit up, and he looked at Wen Han and asked.

"The lord seems to have expected Ma Chao's request for peace, and it is difficult to mention it in the letter of the military advisor."

"Haha, Zhicai is sane, how can it be unexpected?"

"The military advisor is like a god, and he can't be better!"

Li You's face twitched again and again, and with Xi Long's terrifying pushing power, even Li You, the peerless strategist who had assisted Dong Zhuo to win half of the world, had to bow down. I even understood in my heart why Xi Long had left such a heavy root of illness before, and it was unimaginable to scrutinize things step by step, calculating it so accurately and consuming so much energy. If it is like this all year round, even if the wisdom is against the sky, it will definitely reduce the life expectancy!

Calculated that Ma Chao would be forced to make peace, which is also a part of Xilong's plan, and Wen Han's previous move in Pingxiang was a foreshadowing for this ring.

"My lord, what should the military advisor do next?"

Li You's slightly feminine eyes stared, and Xiang Wen Han asked again. Wen Han smiled and asked rhetorically.

"Hehe, what does Zhongwen see?"

Li You's expression sank, his mind was spinning, and he was full of wisdom. Shaoqing, Li You replied.

"Soldiers don't get tired of cheating. What you see, you can fake it, and then use a counter-plot to make Ma and Cheng suspicious, Cheng Gongying is Han Sui's old department after all, and half of the Xiliang army is Han Sui's soldiers in the past. If the two turn against each other, it can be broken with one blow! ”

Wen Han was overjoyed, Li You's plan and Xi Long simply coincided, and he laughed loudly.

"Haha! The world has a high opinion, and there are many coincidences. The strategy of loyalty is exactly the plan in the letter of the military advisor! ”

Xi Long and Li You, two great talents with earth-shattering wisdom, thought of a plan at the same time, how could it not be possible. Wen Han was determined, so he sent someone back to the book.

The book says.

"When I slowly withdraw from the army and retreat, I hope to keep my word and cede it to Guangwei County."

After the letter was transmitted, Wen Han taught to dismantle the walled shed as a means of retiring from the army. Ma Chao got the book, although he was happy, he had doubts in his heart, and quickly found Cheng Gongying to discuss.

"Although Wen Bufan is peaceful, he is treacherous and insidious, and his deceit is unpredictable. If you don't prepare, you will be subject to it. How should we be on guard? ”
