Chapter 402 Zhang Gongqi surrendered the city
So in less than an hour, Zhang Lu had already made a decisive decision to surrender to Ma Chao. And the others naturally won't say anything at this time, because now they can only surrender, or what else can they do? Fight with Ma Mengqi's Liangzhou army to break the net, but the fish will die anyway, but people's nets may not be broken. And when the time comes, some people may still ridicule, saying that the fish will drown after the worst, and I don't know how many people in the world will see the joke at that time.
Zhang Lu had already sorted out the Daoguan, he took the seal letter of the Hanzhong Taishou, and took a group of subordinates out of the city to surrender. Don't look at him as the Taishou of Hanzhong, it's true, but Zhang Lu usually wears almost all Taoist robes, and rarely wears other clothes.
At this time, there is actually a lot of time before an hour, and Ma Chao, Zhang Fei and Jia Xu are all waiting for Zhang Lu's action. Ma Chao thought about it quite clearly at this time, if he Zhang Gongqi was really stubborn, then he could only release water to flood Nanzheng, and there was no other way. Because Hanzhong himself is bound to win, and the sooner he gets it, the more benefits he will have for himself, that's it. He drowned Nanzheng today, and he will compensate the people well in the future. Who let this be the fastest way to break the city and make Zhang Gongqi surrender. So if you don't use such a big move, what else can you use?
As a result, when he was thinking about this, the soldier came to report: "Report to the lord, at this time, the gate of Nanzheng City is wide open, and a team of people and horses come out of it!" ”
There are also soldiers from Niu Fu who have been collected from Guanhai Cottage, and they are all called the lord by Ma Chao, and they all recognize this lord. Only the soldiers of the Liangzhou Army are still called Ma Chaozhoumu, but they have not come to Hanzhong now. Therefore, for the time being, you can know from the title, which are the soldiers of the veterans of the Liangzhou Army, and which are the soldiers who were incorporated by Ma Chaohou.
Ma Chao also understood. These are their own parts, but the Liangzhou Army is still a big man. As for the slow incorporation of the Liangzhou Army, this is not something that can be completed in one time, so now it is still in a hurry, but it will always succeed in the future.
When Ma Chao heard this, he looked at Jia Xu next to him, and Jia Xu nodded slightly to him, so he said: "Okay, follow me across the Han River, and I will meet Zhang Gongqi and them!" ”
After speaking. Ma Chao wanted to leave, but at this time Jia Xu said: "Slow down!" The so-called 'heart of defense is indispensable', although at this time he Zhang Gongqi is going to sacrifice the city to surrender to our army, but we also have to guard against it! ”
Ma Chao nodded, and said in his heart that what Jia Xu, the old fox, said was good. It's a lot of experience. If Zhang Gongqi really has a small move, he will indeed be more passive on his side.
"Good. What the gentleman said is very true! How to do it! ”
As a result, Zhang Fei next to him listened. immediately opened his loud voice, "Lord, I'm afraid of what he will do!" With my snake spear in hand, I will kill as many as he comes! ”
Ma Chao shook his head at him with a smile, and said in his heart that Zhang Fei was really cute. But if Zhang Lu secretly ambushed countless archers in the city, would you really be able to withstand the rain of arrows? It may not be possible, but Ma Chao still has a way to deal with Zhang Lu.
Everyone crossed the Han River and came to the city of Nanzheng. And Zhang Lu had already taken a group of subordinates out of the city at this time. On Ma Chao's side, in addition to Zhang Fei and Jia Xu, there are dozens of personal guards, just so many people. Ma Chao is not defenseless, but he has his own way.
After seeing Ma Chao and them, Zhang Lu hurriedly stepped forward a few steps forward with the Taishou Yin letter, and then said to Ma Chao: "Zhou Mu, Jinlu is willing to surrender to the Liangzhou Army, and Hanzhong Taishou Yin Xin is here, so I am here to present it!" ”
Ma Chao smiled and nodded, he personally stepped forward to take the letter. After all, Zhang Lu is not only the Taishou of Hanzhong, a prince, but also the Heavenly Master of the Five Doumi Sect, and this identity can never be ignored. The Wudou Rice Sect is not just in Hanzhong, so Ma Chao can't help but pay attention to this. So I have to give him some face, this is a must, isn't this Ma Chao personally taken over. Then he handed the seal letter to Jia Xu next to him and asked him to hold it first.
Then Ma Chao grabbed Zhang Lu's hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Gongqi, let's go into the city!" ”
Although Ma Chao saw Zhang Lu at the head of the city before, the distance was not very close at that time, but Ma Chao could also see that the person standing in front of him was Zhang Lu and Zhang Gongqi himself. Some things do fit out, but some things don't. The so-called "real can't be fake, fake can't be true", that's what happened.
Zhang Lu is not such a simple character as the Hanzhong Taishou of a big man, he is also the Heavenly Master of the Wudoumi Sect, so he naturally has the unique temperament of a cultivator, and as a Heavenly Master, he is naturally stronger than others. However, what Ma Chao didn't know was that Zhang Lu is now more powerful than before, so some of the temperament on his body is actually stronger than before.
And Ma Chao doesn't know much about this, but Jia Xu can see it. So at this time, he said in his heart, Zhang Gongqi is amazing, he shouldn't be too guarded, and he will be a character in the future. Jia Xu's eyes were quite vicious, so he could see that Zhang Lu no longer had the intention of fighting for hegemony, and he was relieved about this.
didn't care about others for the time being, Ma Chao directly grabbed Zhang Lu's hand and entered Nanzheng. Ma Chao He also has some experience, don't look at the weapon is not there, but he is holding him Zhang Lu with one hand, and if the other party has an ambush, he will never dare to act rashly, or the person who will die first is definitely not himself. And Zhang Lu, of course, can see Ma Chao's intentions, but he won't say this. He just smiled, and then entered the city with Ma Chao. Not to mention Zhang Lu's current realm, at this time, he has no ghost in his heart at all, what else can he be afraid of Ma Chao.
And Zhang Lu can look at the face, he is looking at Ma Chao at close range, not to mention, he can't see through Ma Chao, so Zhang Lu was also surprised in his heart. If you want to say that there are only two kinds of people who can't see through now, the first is naturally the person of destiny, and for such a person, he really can't see anything in his current way. And the second is a person outside the sky, no matter how advanced he is, he probably can't see too much of such a person. But no matter which Ma Chao is, it shows that Ma Mengqi is a character. However, he still doesn't know that Ma Chao is actually a combination of these two, so he can't see anything now.
Everyone just came to Taishou Mansion. Zhang Lu invited Ma Chao into the Taishou Mansion, and then everyone sat down, but the difference from usual was that Zhang Lu used to sit on the top seat, and his subordinates also had their own positions. However, now the one sitting in the top seat has been replaced by Ma Chao, and Zhang Lu has become the first on the left. Then after Zhang Fei and Jia Xu sat down, Zhang Lu's subordinates sat down one after another. No way, isn't this just "people under the roof".
After everyone sat down, Zhang Lu introduced Ma Chao, and the first one he pointed to his younger brother Zhang Wei. So he said to Ma Chao: "State pastor, this is my brother Zhang Wei, Zhang Gongze!" ”
Then he was afraid that Zhang Wei would not give Ma Chao face, so he hurriedly said to Zhang Wei: "I haven't seen the state pastor yet!" ”
Zhang Wei was indeed reluctant, but his eldest brother spoke. At least at this time, he still had to listen, so he said: "I've seen the state pastor! ”
Ma Chao nodded slightly at him. It's kind of a greeting. But I said it in my heart. Although this Zhang Wei is Zhang Lu's younger brother, compared to Zhang Lu, it is not a little worse. Especially when there is no city government, everyone is happy and angry, this is good, and his dissatisfaction with himself is directly written on his face. It is indeed not a cause for concern.
In fact, Ma Chao thought simply, if you Zhang Wei really have the ability, then it is normal for you to be like this, and it is even more normal for you to be dissatisfied. The key is that you Zhang Wei don't have any skills. So what else do you want? And I don't know that Lu Dao hides his inner thoughts, so it would be strange if Ma Chao could pay attention to such a person.
And Ma Chao said to Zhang Lu at this time: "Brother Ling seems to be a fierce general!" ”
Zhang Lu just smiled and didn't say anything more, of course he also knew that Ma Chao was polite.
So he pointed to the second person and said, "This is Yang Song of the Nanzheng Yang family, Mr. Yang!" ”
Ma Chao looked at it and said Yang Song? I've heard of it, but it's really the first time I've seen it, but Yang Song quickly stood up, hugged his fists at Ma Chao and smiled: "Yang Song, a man of the end of the micro, has seen the state pastor!" ”
Ma Chaoxin said that this Yang Song seems to be a little different from what he thinks. It seems to remember that this Yang Song is greedy for money, and he has no ability, and he is a traitor or something. Of course, if you look at it like this now, you naturally can't see anything, and if you really want to understand the person, you have to get in touch with it slowly.
In fact, not only Ma Chao paid attention to Zhang Lu's introduction, but Jia Xu was the same, the difference was that Ma Chao came openly, while he was secretly observing. The first Zhang Wei, Jia Xu didn't pay much attention to it. But for Yang Songqi and his people, Jia Xu really sees it in his eyes. Of course, Jia Xu knew that Yang Song was from the Yang clan of Nanzheng, so he naturally cared about him. But what makes him pay more attention is that Yang Song is a person, and Jia Xu's definition of Yang Song is that this person is a smiling tiger, and he can't be wrong at all. Don't look at him talking to his lord with a smile at this time, but his heart is definitely thinking about dealing with his lord.
If you want to say that Yang Song is good at this point, it is enough to deal with ordinary people, but if he wants to deceive Jia Xu, he still has to practice for more than ten years.
"It turned out to be Mr. Yang from Nanzheng, look up for a long time!"
Ma Chao hurriedly said, but this is actually not a lie, he really "admires the name for a long time" to Yang Song and is "like thunder".
When Yang Song heard this, although he didn't believe it, he still showed a flattered look, "The state pastor is really a false praise, Song is ashamed, he is ashamed!" ”
Ma Chao also smiled at this time, didn't say more, and then Zhang Lu introduced Yan Pu again, "This is Mr. Yan Pu of Brazil!" ”
"I've seen the state pastor!"
Yan Pu is not like Zhang Wei, but he is not like Yang Song, he just said very plainly after standing up.
Ma Chao nodded, and said in his heart Yan Pu, it seems that this person seems to be good, he should be a usable person, and hurriedly said, "Sir, please take a seat!" ”
After introducing Yang Bai later, Zhang Lu was finished. And Ma Chaonaturally also introduced Zhang Fei and Jia Xu to everyone, and everyone obviously had a deep impression of Zhang Fei, the fierce general of the Bishui Pass battle against Lu Bu, but they really hadn't heard of Jia Xu and his person.
Ma Chaoxin said, you haven't heard of it, Jia Xu doesn't want this effect from this old fox, the result is at least temporary, anyway, this old fox really got his wish. (To be continued......)
