Chapter 1278: Simon
Liu Xie looked back in amazement, looked at Ma Chao on the high platform, and suddenly had a very strange feeling. It was a strange feeling that was completely unexpected, completely subverting his thinking. It's like a graceful wolf walking through the steel jungle, watching a mouse suddenly transform into the most elegant and powerful totem dragon, and wink at him with disdain.
In Liu Xie's heart, he almost never regarded Ma Chao as an opponent of the same level. In his previous life, he had a handsome sports car and a fashionable and cutting-edge atmosphere, surrounded by white-collar workers and embraced by beautiful women, enjoying the superiority that Ma Chao and others can only imagine in their dreams. He considers himself elegant, dashing, with the symbolic elements of the world's upper class. So, without even knowing it, he took away the goddess that this poor guy had been in love for three years.
That is, this kind of powerful victory that can be decided without even meeting each other, and after knowing the truth, you will enjoy an extremely pleasant sense of accomplishment.
Lucky or unlucky, after crossing into this troubled world, Liu Xie still enjoys the supreme position, causing him to take the illusion and style of his previous life, and as always, he plays with his enterprise development and management in the deep palace.
It's a pity that he didn't expect that under the completely unreasonable force of crossing, the two of them would have the same starting point... No, it can be said that Liu Xie's starting point is much higher than Ma Chao's, he crossed over first, and when he was brilliant, he had the smartest strategist Jia Xu and the most heroic general Lu Bu. At that time, if he grasped the opportunity, he could give Dahan a new life.
But the result? As a result, the smartest strategists and the most heroic generals became Ma Chao's subordinates. And now, he still only has the false name of a 'Son of Heaven', but Ma Chao has become the strongest person in this era. Even! He also found the former goddess and made her stand behind him obediently!
This strong frustrated contrast made Liu Xie really unbearable, he quietly and strangely looked at Ma Chao on the stage, looking at his flowing hair like a knife, his angular and masculine face, and the corners of his mouth as if there was a coldness hanging forever...... He seemed to see the splendid brilliance in front of him, like a sharp sword out of its sheath, gorgeous and sharp, incomparable.
In this troubled era, in this era of only advocating the strong, Liu Xie felt for the first time that he was standing in front of this person, and he was just a foil for this person, a foil with strong and sharp contrasts, and a wordless contrast between winners and losers. For the first time, Liu Xie had to admit that Ma Chao's unpretentious arrogance, natural extravagance and disdain for everything around him at this moment are the hallmarks of a truly strong man in this era.
Failed?
Liu Xie was difficult to accept at all, but he could no longer hide his true emotions, Ma Chao's short and powerful insult seemed to break his lungs: "Idiot? Am I an idiot?! Liu Xie took a step closer to Ma Chao, the corners of his mouth were already difficult to outline a sneer, and he almost said with a sneer: "Ten thousand against four thousand, this battle, anyone with a little mathematical knowledge can see it, you actually call me an idiot?!" ”
"Of course you are an idiot," Ma Chao was very sure of this, and even completely ignored the stunned of all the people present who were deeply influenced by Confucianism in this era, and said in a clear and unambiguous tone: "You have never been on the battlefield, and you don't know anything about the battle of 4,000 against 10,000, who wins or loses." You, the emperor, are just too far away for these Huya Riders and Xiangyang Guards, and I don't believe they will fight for you to the end. And the big ears ride here...... You still know the word "guard", right? ”
Speaking of this, Ma Chao made a statement: "Do you think that fighting a war is a one-on-one mutual cut, and whoever has more people can win?" I'm telling you! These personal guards who get along with Liu Bei day and night can shed the last drop of blood for their lord. And the 10,000 soldiers under your command, before they die, they have to think about why they died in vain! ”
"You?! ...... "It is true that Liu Xie has never personally commanded soldiers, and his arrogance and pride make him take it for granted that these generals can be." However, Ma Chao's words could not completely defeat him: "But ......"
"There's nothing to say, you're an idiot, I naturally have a good reason!" Ma Chao stopped at the moment, and continued categorically: "Indeed, mathematically, you really have a chance to defeat the big-eared cavalry and kill all the enemies who hinder your domination of Jingzhou. Of course, the best case scenario is that you parachute into Jingzhou, waste at least three years, and break out of the chrysalis under the suppression of the Liu family, the Kuai family, the Cai family and other Jingzhou heroes...... But do you think you'll have that time? Not to mention what the Ma family will be like three years later, but after three days, 40,000 Nanyang elites will be able to come to the city! Ma Jiajing's banner refers to, do you think the scattered and broken Xiangyang can be held under your control?! ”
"I, I...... I, I ......" Liu Xie's face turned pale for a while, and Ma Chao's argument completely pierced his weakness. Indeed, he is just a poor worm with the name of the emperor, in front of the majestic Ma family, in the face of the fierce Ma family, he really has no power to fight back!
"Ma Chao, you are committing a rebellion, you are a usurper!!" Liu Xie thought about all the possibilities, and after he couldn't find a reason to stop Ma Chao, he roared unwillingly and angrily: "If you do this, I should punish your whole clan and kill your whole family!" ”
"Then I'll abolish you first, the poor ghost who was brought to the front by Dong Zhuo!!"
Ma Chao blurted out this sentence, and the temperature of the entire lobby suddenly fell into freezing, so cold that everyone felt that the bones began to tremble. Especially Dian Wei and Xu Chu behind Cao Cao, they made a defensive posture. Of course, they will not be wary of the content of the sentence, but they also feel the determination and seriousness of Ma Chao when he said this. Only, only...... This, this kind of rebellious words, can be said in a grand manner?!
But the strange thing is that just after the snow-capped mountain-like cold aura on Ma Chao's body emanated, after people saw the confidence on the corner of Ma Chao's mouth, they suddenly felt that the temperature in the lobby seemed to return to the original temperature. In an instant, they suddenly realized: Indeed, he Ma Chao has such arrogant strength and prestige!
The Son of Heaven in front of him is indeed just a puppet moved out by Dong Zhuo, as Ma Chao said. Now that Dong Zhuo's hat of the thief of the country has been put on, how can the Son of Heaven he drum up be regarded as orthodox? In recent years, the world has not paid attention to this point, it is nothing more than that the prestige of the Han family really has nothing to talk about. But if it is really as Ma Chao said, he has another emperor, and the Son of Heaven who actually controls the six states of Liang, Yong, Si, He, Ji, and Youzhou is compared with the emperor who is currently so bleak that there are only 10,000 soldiers and horses......
Obviously, everyone will choose the emperor who was newly established by Ma Chao. Because, people's hearts are all wonderful, and they all yearn for beauty and strength - there is no sign of revival in today's Han family, so why not break it and stand up? Pursue a court that makes the northern Rong Di bow down to Chen Chen and the majesty of the sky?!
Or is this actually a strategy that Ma Chao has been planning? A strategy that adapts to this troubled world and can calm down this troubled world as quickly as possible? The Ma family has emerged, who doesn't want to be a minister of the dragon, instead of holding a brand with an improper name and bad words, tragically rotting in the loess?
If what Ma Chao said is true, what a joyful thing it should be!
"Horse, super!" As if he was completely struck by lightning, Liu Xie had already fallen into madness: "How dare you do this?!" Don't forget, the edict is still in your hand, if you do this, the knife on Cao's head will disappear immediately! ”
As soon as this sentence came out, even Cao Cao was moved. Although the conversation between the two is a little strange, this does not prevent Cao Cao, the traitorous male, from capturing what he is most concerned about: yes, if Ma Chao establishes a new emperor, the edict will lose its power, and he no longer has to worry about the situation of thousands of people, crowd discussions, and even the rebellion of the counties and counties, the Cao family only needs to recuperate, and can still be an unshakable princely power in this troubled world!
However, after looking at Ma Chao with hopeful eyes, Cao Cao looked at Ma Chao's evil smile that made people want to smash it with a punch, and the raging flame in his heart was immediately hit with a basin of cold water. Then, he really listened to Ma Chao say: "The stupid method of letting the Cao family escape the catastrophe like this, I naturally don't use it now...... You know, Uncle Meng Deshi, you have always been in my heart. ”
The last sentence was said to Cao Cao, although it was a beautiful word, but Cao Cao just smiled politely. Seeing this, Liu Xie finally couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh wildly: "After talking so much nonsense, I can at least win Jingzhou!" Forty thousand Nanyang elites, hmph, I was almost deceived by you. If you really had the wealth, you would have sent 100,000 or 200,000 troops into Xiangyang a long time ago! The development of the Ma family in two years is indeed amazing, but how many days can it support those 40,000 elites to attack Xiangyang?! And I can unite with Liu Biao today, and I can even form an alliance with Sun Ce in Jiangdong, at that time, do you think your Ma family may still enter Xiangyang for half a step?!! ”
"You dare?!" It was not Ma Chao who said this, but Liu Pan, who had been taking care of Liu Biao: "Dog Emperor, my Liu family and the Sun family have been enemies for generations, you dare to form an alliance with Sun Ce, we will serve the Ma family today!" ”
Liu Xie was a fool, at this time, he looked at Ma Chao in disbelief: "You didn't even expect this?" ”
"How is that possible? ......" Ma Chao smiled and waved his hand, looking extremely happy: "It's just that you are an idiot, so you will naturally kill yourself." And I'll tell you that everything I just said was for your fun. Tonight, you can't take Xiangyang at all. That little lion in Jiangdong, let me meet him......"
"You, you talk nonsense!!" Liu Xie suddenly screamed in pain in his heart and lungs, tears flowed down, and his noble and majestic dragon robe trembled, like a rehearsal of the collapse of the Han family: "You can't have any more hole cards!" ”
"Who said that?" The corners of Ma Chao's mouth bent, and his eyes finally stared at Cai Mao, who was silent as air on the side for the first time, and then said softly: "Xiangyang is indeed very lively tonight, there is movement at the north gate and the east gate, why is there no turmoil at the west gate alone?" ……”
