Seeing Deng Yi being taken down, Ma Chao sent everyone to rest.

When Xu Shu and the others knew that Taoyang was also lost, they didn't look too surprised. However, even with a lot of remnants of the soldiers, they came back, but they saw Deng Yi for a long time, and Xu Shu knew that even if Deng Yi was not dead, he was captured alive by the Liangzhou army.

And for this, Xu Shu really thinks it's quite normal, after all, Deng Yi's ability is there, if he really doesn't pay attention, it is really easy to be captured by the Liangzhou army. But he didn't feel anything, but someone couldn't sit still, and that person was Liu Ba. After all, he and Deng Yi both came out of Lingling, so their relationship has always been good, and now that Deng Yi has been captured, Liu Ba is indeed more worried, so he came to Xu Shu on purpose.

"Yuan Zhi, this Deng Yi's situation ......"

Xu Shu smiled, "Don't worry about Zichu, if you want me to see, Ma Chao may not necessarily leave Deng Yi, so maybe he will come back in a few days!" ”――

When Liu Ba heard it, let alone say it, Xu Shu's words were indeed reasonable. And he used to be "concerned and chaotic", but he didn't expect it, but now when he hears Xu Shu say this, he understands. And when Xu Shu saw Liu Ba's sudden realization, he also knew that the other party also understood.

Sure enough, just like Xu Shu said, in less than three days, Deng Yi ran back in a wolf, and it was indeed Ma Chao who put him back. is really not interested in such a third-rate general, Ma Chao really has no interest, rather than staying under his own account, it is better to return it to Liu Bei, isn't it.

As a result, as soon as Deng Yi came back, he pleaded guilty with Xu Shu. However, Xu Shu waved his hand, "General Deng is the general of Taoyang, although the lord asked me to guard the Lingling." However, how to deal with the general is still up to the lord! ”

Deng Yi listened. He knew what Xu Shu meant, and dared to love Xu Shu to push himself to his lord. But now that my lord is not here, it seems that he can be punished later-

But for him, this matter is not good or bad, anyway, Deng Yi thinks that he lost Taoyang, not to mention, and was captured alive by others, which made his lord look at it. Can you still not punish yourself?

So although Deng Yi was not punished by Xu Shu, when he thought of being dealt with by his father-in-law, he looked depressed. When Xu Shu saw it, he persuaded him: "General Deng doesn't have to be like this, the lord wants to come and reward and punish clearly." In the battle of Taoyang, the general is not very wrong, so if you want me to come and see, the lord will not deal with the general too harshly! ”

When Deng Yi heard this, he said in his heart that what Xu Shu said was true or false? Is that really the case? If that's the case, that's fine. But he didn't bother to lie to himself. As for whether he came to comfort himself, Deng Yi felt that this was almost impossible, and he had no friendship with him Xu Shu. The second is not a person who is important to his own master. I don't know that I am guarding Taoyang, there is really no one left, so I went up. And it's because I know Lingling better, so I ......

Because of this, Deng Yi didn't think that Xu Shu was here to comfort himself, but to tell the truth-

After Ma Chao let Deng Yi go, he rested in Taoyang for two days, and then led his troops to Quanling again. This time it was to start a big battle with Xu Shu and them, so it was impossible for Ma Chao not to pay attention to it. After all, he already knew. Cao Ren and Lu Su have already been in Quanling. It looks like I'm just waiting for myself.

In this regard, Ma Chao asked Guo Jia what Cao Ren thought of him. Guo Jia smiled and said to his lord, this Cao Ren and Lu Su, their thoughts are actually similar, it is nothing more than because Liu Bei is not in Lingling, so they want to be lazy somewhat, after all, although they are called reinforcements, but in fact, the allies are allies because they have their own side, but in fact they are still hostile.

Therefore, if they are attacking other places, they will not make any effort, but if they attack Quanling, of course they will contribute. And looking at their posture, they are actually waiting for their side to pass over in Quanling.

Regarding Guo Jia's words, Ma Chao nodded again and again, what he said is indeed reasonable, now that he is leading his troops to Quanling, then the final result is to confront the Yanzhou Army and the Jiangdong Army, but they are all defeated generals under their own side, how can they be brave-

"Mr. Bao, the Liangzhou Army is already less than ten miles away from Quanling!"

"Let's go down and explore!" "No!"

After sending away the Tanma, Xu Shu said to everyone: "Everyone, this Ma Mengqi still brought troops to Quanling, earlier than we expected!" ”

For Xu Shu's words, everyone nodded, indeed, this Ma Chao seems to be trying his best to seize Quanling, which is why he came so quickly. Looks like he's in a hurry? But no matter what, if they dare to come, then if you want to fight, I will fight! Could it be that you are still afraid that your Liangzhou army will not succeed?

Except for Deng Yi and his heart, no one else was really afraid, even if it was Liu Pan, he had nothing to fear from the Liangzhou Army. As for the others, whether it is Wen Chou, Wei Yan, Wen Ping, or Huo Jun, Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao, they are not afraid of anything from the Liangzhou Army.

Xu Shu and Deng Yi are not the same, Deng Yi didn't dare to go to Taoyang City because he was afraid, but Xu Shu couldn't be like that. And even if he is more familiar with the Liangzhou Army, he still has to go to the city to see it.

So he and all the people went up to the city, but there was no Cao Ren and Lu to restrain them. When they learned that the Liangzhou army was coming, they had already left the city, but they didn't dare to block the road that the Liangzhou army had to pass, but it was not far from them, it could be regarded as on the side, and the distance could be less than twenty miles, so the Liangzhou army was caught in it.

For this, Ma Chao is like a mirror in his heart, but people can do whatever they want, and there is nothing you can do. However, as for Ma Chao at this moment, he knows very well that Cao Ren and Lu Su will definitely not dare to act rashly. Both of them are that kind of people, either they don't move, and if they want to move, they will act vigorously, almost killing with one blow.

Even if it is against a team like their own that is stronger than them, they think the same way, just because after all, their own strength is there, so there is indeed a gap with what they think-

Seeing that the Liangzhou army was encamped, Xu Shu nodded slightly, and then said a few simple words to the people next to him, and everyone couldn't help nodding. For them, the time has come to test them. Now that Ma Chao has brought the Liangzhou army to Lingling's office, this Quanling has been lost, which means that Lingling has also been lost. As for those counties, they are not as good as Quanling, so can they still withstand Ma Chao's attack?

But no matter what the result is, since Ma Chao is here with troops today, then he must go all out. Even if you can't resist it in the end, you have to delay them for many days. Because when Ma Chao took Lingling, he let the soldiers guide the county and attack Jiangling, and his lord was there, so ......

And Ma Chao's side is naturally everyone resting and recuperating, preparing for tomorrow's battle. Rest when it's time to rest, check everything you need to check. After all, if something goes wrong with the siege equipment, such as a ladder truck breaking down during the siege, then if something like this happens, it will be really interesting.

In the end, not to mention that the whole world will laugh at it, but at least the Han army, the Yanzhou army and the Jiangdong army, will definitely not let this go.

In addition to ordnance, there are also military rations and the like, which will not be possible if there is a shortage or other problems, so this is actually essential for every pre-war preparation.

Ma Chao, as the head of an army, naturally he would not do such a thing himself, but now Guo Jia and Ma Dai do it. One is responsible for inspecting the grain and grass, and the other, of course, is responsible for inspecting the ordnance. After strict inspection and inspection by the two, it was true that no major problems were found, and as for other small problems, they were solved with a wave of their hands, and it was not a big deal.

Ma Chao, the lord, usually likes to say to his subordinates "prevention is better than prevention", even if it is a small problem, it cannot appear. As long as it is discovered, it must be solved, and it is often said that what is "a thousand miles of embankment, destroyed in an anthill", speaking of which, because of Ma Chao's caution, even his subordinates did not dare to be careless. Therefore, the Liangzhou Army can be said to be really good in this regard.

On the second day, Ma Chao asked Ma Dai to lead his troops to attack Quanling, which was also their first tentative attack on Quanling. However, the Yanzhou Army and the Jiangdong Army did not move at all. (To be continued)
