Chapter 179: The Serpent in the Backyard

The Xiliang army defeated the Cao army, and Ma Chao took advantage of the situation to rush and kill and chase after Cao Ang.

"Ahead is Cao Ang, Xiliang Warrior Chong!" Ma Chao shouted. Xiliang Iron Cavalry was extremely fast, and after a while, he rushed to Cao Ang to cover the cavalry, Xiliang rode bravely, and Cao Bing was defeated.

Now Cao Ang has few covering soldiers, and Ma Chao rushes straight and assassinates all the way.

When the left and right generals saw Ma Chao chasing after him, they fled in panic and withdrew Cao Ang.

Ma Chao shouted: "Cao Angxiu is leaving!" ”

Cao Ang fled in a panic all the way, scattered with the soldiers and horses, and fled into a forest, and Ma Chao chased after him.

Ma Chao looked for a machine and stabbed it with a flying gun. The gun was pointed directly at Cao Ang's back, and he was about to hit the middle, when a big knife flew in, "Dang!" "Shoot the gun away, and stick the knife into the tree.

"The lord goes first! I'm here to break off! A fierce general shouted.

Cao Ang looked back and saw that it was Xu Chu who came to the rescue, so he fled on horseback.

Ma Chao saw that the comer was carrying a bear on his back, and his momentum was huge, not like a few people just now, so he drew his sword and cut it off.

Xu Chu blocked the sword, "Keng! The two swung their swords and slashed.

Ma Chao approached and asked, "Who are you?" ”

Xu Chu shouted: "I am the head of the Tiger Guard, Xu Chu!" ”

Ma Chao has heard of this army, and he has also heard of this person, who used to be Cao Cao's personal guard, specializing in protecting his left and right.

"Ahh Xu Chu shouted, swung his sword left and right, Ma Chao dodged, counterattacked and stabbed the sword away, Xu Chu crossed the sword, blocked, "Keng!" "Ma Chao's sword stabbed Xu Chu's sword, Xu Chu blocked it angrily, and Ma Chao couldn't stab it. Collecting the sword and slashing the horse, Xu Chu bounced off the split.

Neither of them can help each other, Xu Chu saw that the lord had escaped, looked for an opportunity, and even cut Ma Chao, Ma Chao dodged, Xu Chu took advantage of this to get out of the battlefield and run away.

Ma Chao couldn't see Cao Ang anymore, and he didn't want to pursue Xu Chu anymore, so he planned to return to the army. Then he dismounted and picked up the spear, and saw the big knife that knocked down his spear on the side, and pulled it out, and the moment he pulled it out, Ma Chao was shocked, "This knife is so heavy!" ”

Tongguan

Cao Ang was ordered to return to the city, relieved a little, and then rewarded Xu Chu again, so he summoned everyone to discuss the matter.

Cao Angyan said: "This Xiliang army is indeed brave, fighting head-on, and it is difficult to win, and now it needs to be done according to Zidan's plan." "No more fighting, hold on to the city.

After that, Ma Chao led troops to the city every day to insult and lure Cao's army into battle. Cao Ang asked the soldiers to hold on, and if there was any disturbance, they should be beheaded.

Ma Chao and Han Sui military camps.

Ma Chao said angrily: "Cao Jun insists on not fighting, and if it drags on any longer, this place can no longer stay, what should I do now?" ”

Han Sui said: "It's better to retreat back to Chang'an first, and then make plans." ”

"I've come here! Uncle, you still let me quit, no! Ma Chao was even more angry, he had already known that although Han Sui had come to help, he had no intention of fighting, if he hadn't won all the way, he would have already divided his troops and retreated.

Pang Deyan said: "I have a plan, I can lead the army to cross the river, secretly cross Pu Hanjin, go to Shouyang Mountain, cut off its grain road, Cao army has no food to enter the city must be difficult to hold for a long time, Cao army will definitely go out of the pass and retreat, I can lead the army to intercept and kill, the lord Ru chased him to help, Cao army will be defeated." ”

Ma Chao was overjoyed when he heard it, "It's exactly what I want, just follow this line!" ”

At this point, Pound led 5,000 elite soldiers across the river.

Xu Du, Cao Zhi Mansion

"If the food and grass are gone, Cao Ang's army will definitely be defeated. If Cao Ang is defeated and retreats, Gongzi Ru can lead troops to rescue, and I have a way to win. Yang Xiu said to Cao Zhi that the battle situation had changed at this time.

Cao Zhi was puzzled: "What if I lead the troops?" What is the difference between his victory and the victory of my help? ”

Yang Xiuyan: "At that time, the lord's own soldiers arrived, Cao Ang will be happy, and he must be commanded by the lord, so that I can make a plan, secretly make a plan to let him die in battle, and then I will help the lord to defeat Xiliang, and no one will accept his achievements." ”

"In this battle, Cao Ang almost led the army in the court, and the lord can also take over it, and then Gongzi Pi is also powerless to fight, although Cao Zhang, who is fighting in the northern Wuhuan, has an army, but he is aggressive and will not compete with the lord."

Cao Zhi smiled, "Dezu is a wonderful strategy, if it is successful, I will not forget today." "However, it may be difficult to cut off the army's food?"

Yang Xiu said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, I have my own way." ”

Xunfu

"Master, Lord Yang Xiu Yang is here to see." Xun Yu of the next person.

Xun Yu was suspicious, he had never had anything to do with Yang Xiu, how could he come to me now. "Let him in, I'll wait for him again."

Yang Xiu said that he would see it in the study. Zuo Yi said: "Lord Shang Shuling, Yang Xiu came to see him, and he was disturbed. ”

Xun Yu asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”

After Yang Xiuli, he returned to his previous state, domineering, "Recently, there are rumors, do you know?" ”

Xun Yu seemed to understand what he said, "What do you mean? ”

Yang Xiu said: "The news of Liwei. ”

Xun Yu smiled, "I don't know where the news came from, how can it be credible?" ”

Yang Xiudao: "It's hard to say, although the foreign tribes in Hebei are chaotic, but we have been operating in several states for many years, and the people have been stable for a long time. The people also recognized what the Cao family did, which could bring them a peaceful life, which was what they respected. ”

"The wars in Jingzhou and Jiangdong were chaotic, and the people were struggling to make a living. Who is the thief in this world, it is clear at a glance. The matter of Liwei will be completed sooner or later. Now the hearts of the new generals of the Cao clan and the Xiahou clan are not as good as their fathers back then, and they are asking for new glory. ”

Xun Yu asked, "So, what do you want to say?" ”

Yang Xiu looked back at the other party and said with a chuckle: "We, the fourth Taiwei of the Yang family, are loyal to the Han family and are the same as the Gongnai. "If Cao Ang wins a big victory in Xiliang, he will definitely take Liangzhou, and then Hanzhong will take it, and the general trend of the world will be determined." Although Liu Bei, Sun Quan and others have a land base, it is difficult to resist them, and the Han family will die after that! ”

"But if Liu Bei becomes a big trend, take Yizhou, occupy Jingxiang, and seize Hanzhong to take Liangzhou, it will become a force of confrontation. In order to deal with Liu Bei, the Son of Heaven will be left behind, and in the name of attacking him, the Han family will also survive. ”

Xun Yu said: "What you said, not a drop of water leaks, is indeed this." So what do you do? ”

Yang Xiu said while walking in the study: "I need the prince to be on my side, get the support of the Son of Heaven, and stabilize Hanchen." ”

Xun Yu said: "You are not afraid that I will expose you." ”

Yang Xiudao: "For the sake of the Han family, you won't, you are the one who supports Ma Teng's army!" ”

Xun Yu asked, "What else can I do?" ”

Yang Xiu said: "The public is responsible for the supply of military supplies for the Cao army, I need food to Tongguan this time, and I will arrive slowly." ”

"That's all." Xun Yu asked.

Yang Xiuzhi smiled: "That's it." ”

Well? Yang Xiu was suddenly attracted by a calligraphy on the desk, "This handwriting Zhong Xiu's aura is not made by Zhong Xuan!" ”

Xun Yu smiled: "This is a guest to send me, I didn't want to accept it, but it's hard to be gracious." ”

Gangneung

Liu Jun is preparing for war, recuperating and recuperating, looking for an opportunity to prepare to enter Sichuan.

Shi Yue was forced to take a job from Liu Bei. Shi Yue refused, on this day when there is no war, what's wrong with you letting me have a good leisurely life? Besides, you let Kong Ming take over this job, why do I want to be together.

Shi Yue looked at the innocent child in front of him, and scribbled on the paper with a brush.

"How old is Adou Boy? I don't even remember. Shi Yue sighed, time passed, and the white horse passed by.

"Did Kong Ming teach you the Analects before? I can't remember it, and I can't teach it well. And how old are you? Do you understand? ”

"Let's teach you math, let's memorize a ninety-nine multiplication table first."
