"You have been in the Huns for two years, and when I met you, you didn't even know how to ride a horse?" In the inner room, Ma Chao sat leisurely on the soft couch, looking at the thin and small Han Gugu standing in front of him, and he really couldn't connect him with the top assassin who assassinated the king of a section in history.

"Returning to the lord, when the Huns were slaves, their subordinates were only ordered to release their horses, and if the slaves dared to ride horses, they would be killed immediately. Later, when his subordinates grew up to the age of thirteen, they once wanted to escape on horseback, but in the vast grassland, they couldn't distinguish the direction at all. As a result, he was captured by the Hun rangers and tied to a long pole and skinned. At this time, the master Wu Anguo traveled to the Xiongnu as a guest, exchanged three horses for the lives of his subordinates, and claimed to be a beggar picked up from the street, in order to make me forget that unbearable memory. It took three years for his subordinates to join the Ma family. ”

Han Gugu's voice was very calm, but under the calm, there was always an extremely depressing pain hidden. When Ma Chao heard this, his body couldn't help but sit up straighter: "No wonder you are so afraid of learning riding in the later stage, it turns out that you still have such an experience." It's just that I don't know, why have you been in the Ma family for so long and haven't shown the slightest bitter hatred for the Huns? ”

"My subordinates didn't want to, it's just that the lord has the lord's plan, and I'm just a little beggar, who has been appreciated by the lord and given the glory of the military position, and I have long been grateful. How can you dare to use your own selfishness to harm the lord and the world? Speaking of this, Han Gugu's tone was difficult to keep calm, and he began to spit, but his strong reason still made him continue: "Now there are no subordinates who talk nonsense, the lord has pacified the Huns, and on the prairie, the slaves were forcibly canceled by the lord, and there are no subordinates who are so hard-working......"

Ma Chao sighed, stepped forward and patted Han Gugu's shoulder with his hand to show comfort. Subsequently, Ma Chao looked at Han Gugu deadly, and suddenly said: "Yes, now there are no slaves in the Qiang, Karasuma, and Xiongnu tribes, but among the states, there is still a tribe that follows such an inhumane system, do you know which one?" ”

"Is it the Tuoba?" Han Gugu was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously replied.

Ma Chao's face turned red suddenly, he couldn't have imagined that the pyramid expansion system he had created for Tuoba would make him lift a stone and hit himself in the foot. But the plan in his heart could not be changed, Ma Chao hardened his face, coughed and said embarrassedly: "This ...... The reason for this is that the Xianbei are getting stronger and stronger, and I have to support the clan to quickly become strong and resist. Especially in the central part of the country, Kebi can use soldiers like a god, dangerous and ruthless, crisscrossing the desert, and gradually becoming a king. Even if Tuoba Ying was restrained by it, he still continued to attack Suli, Mijia, Budugen and other departments, and thousands of Han slaves in his tribe drove them like cattle and sheep, and killed them like grass mustard. Now it is even more connected to the Cao family, and the Hetao area is ready to move......"

Speaking of this, before Ma Chao could say more, Han Gugu directly pulled away his clothes, Ma Chao looked back, and saw that Han Gugu's whole body was full of pain, the most obvious one was on the belly, from the throat to the abdomen, which was a clear proof that he was almost skinned. Although it has been a long time, the long deformed scar still strongly impacts Ma Chao's sight. At this moment, Han Gugu's face was full of indignation, and it was obvious that what Ma Chao said stimulated the deep pain in his heart.

He opened his mind like this and said loudly: "Lord, if you have half a point of use for your subordinates, your subordinates will go to the soup and fight the fire, and they will never give up!" ”

"Well, you don't have to be too angry, a few days ago I wrote a letter to Xianbei Kebineng, asking him to send an envoy to Chang'an to negotiate submission. If he can surrender to the Ma family, you don't have to do this dangerous trick. If Kebi can be obsessed, then ......"

In this troubled era, Ma Chao never believed in such a practice as saluting first and then soldiering. The reason why I wrote to Kebineng was entirely out of political and strategic considerations, and I made an appearance for Budugen, Eastern Xianbei Suli, and Miga. Even, even the assassination has the meaning of warning Gongsun Du of Liaodong.

Of course, if Kebi can get acquainted with this person, there is a 1% chance that the negotiation will be successful, then Ma Chao will do his best. It's just that this possibility ......

After saying this, Ma Chao looked at Han Gugu, whose body trembled slightly, and his nose couldn't help but be sour, although he knew that this behavior was a bit suspicious of provoking Han Gugu, but for the sake of the world, he had to do it, and said at the moment: "If Kebi can be obsessed, I want you to go deep into the state and assassinate Kebineng!" Kebi can not trade with the Ma family, I can only let Li Zihao use some connections to secretly insert you in, you get there, almost no help from the shadows, are you sure you want to do this? ”

Han Gugu kowtowed and bleed: "My lord, the minister is convinced." As long as there are no more people in the world who suffer from slavery, there will be no regrets in the death of subordinates! ”

Looking at Han Gugu's thin figure, Ma Chao felt as if he had done something wrong for a while. But when you think about it, you feel that you have to do it. Before I knew it, I felt some pain in my brain, and I couldn't help but knead my temples with both hands. At the same time, he probably understood why Cao Cao's guy always had a headache: worry, tired......

A pair of Hao hands replaced Ma Chao's hands, the technique was neither light nor heavy, and the gentleness unique to women was like a trickle of clear spring. Ma Chao didn't look back, smelling the familiar body fragrance behind him, he patted his plain hands, and said, "Cicada, is there a situation in Jiangdong again?" ”

"Not bad, but good news." Diao Chan replied: "Guo Shilang saw through Zhou Yu's plan to lure the enemy, and General Gan immediately made a decision and won the first battle. Let Sun Ce see the strength of our Ma family's water army, since then, although the two families have been engaged, it is only an encounter, and it seems that there is no decisive battle for the time being. ”

Ma Chao nodded, he knew that Sun Ce in real history was definitely a genius on the battlefield, if Luo Guanzhong wrote according to real history, he should even write Sun Ce as a character like Lu Bu. After experiencing these two land and water battles, Sun Ce should have a full understanding of the Ma family's strategy and tactics. With the help of Zhou Yu, Lu Su and others, Ma Chao said that it was impossible not to worry.

To deal with people like Sun Ce, the upright tactical strategy can only be a war of attrition. Coupled with the fact that he has a heart like an eagle, if he doesn't clean him up to the point of exhaustion, it is impossible for him to be co-opted and surrendered by Ma Chao.

There is only one way to deal with him.

Discord.

Therefore, Guo Jia deliberately let Gan Ning win the victory, so that the war between the two sides entered a stalemate period. During this period, Guo Jia had to find a way to let Cai Mao show her tail by herself, so that the Cao family would no longer hide behind the scenes. At the same time, he also had to cut off Cai Mao's tail, and he had to resist Sun Ce's really crazy attack......

"It's hard to be filial, but if Jingzhou is changed, I really don't dare to rest assured." After reading the letter handed by Diao Chan, it was Guo Jia's Jingzhou plan written to Ma Chao, that strategy was sharp and bright, one link after another, it was completely Guo Jia's style of praying mantis catching cicadas.

Naturally, this kind of strategy is also dangerous and dangerous. Ma Chao pondered for a moment, and then spoke: "Cai Mao's attitude is related to the victory or defeat of the first battle in Jingzhou, during this time, let all the shadows in Jingzhou directly obey Yu Fengxiao's orders!" ”

"Okay." Diao Chan nodded.

"Is there any movement there Liu Bei?" Ma Chao asked again.

"There is something strange in Yizhou, Liu Xie seems to have been willing to act as a puppet, and he has no intention of competing with Liu Bei for Sichuan and Shu at all."

"Hmph, that guy doesn't care anymore, the majesty and dignity of the Han family, and the son of heaven of the Han Dynasty can't be put in his eyes. I'm afraid that all his pursuits after this moment are hidden behind the scenes, and he is trying his best to defeat me, right? ”

"I'm afraid that's exactly what happened." Diao Chan doesn't know much about Liu Xie, but she knows all the stories between Ma Chao, Liu Xie, and Da Qiao, and she is not surprised that Liu Xie can do such a thing.

"Let Mu Yang and Yuan Hui continue to forbear, their two chess pieces may be related to the direction of the world." Ma Chao pondered, and his brain ached faintly: "Cao Cao, there is no obvious movement yet?" ”

"Nope."

"Sure enough, he is the only one who can calm down......"

Between Liu Bei, Sun Ce, and Cao Cao, Ma Chao was most frightened by Cao Cao. The calmer he became, the more uneasy Ma Chaoyue felt. But no matter how Ma Chao empathizes, he can't think of what tricks Cao Cao will play. At this time, the guards outside the door spread: "Your Highness, the Xianbei envoy has arrived at the Deyang Palace......"

Ma Chao turned around and smiled bitterly, he was already very hands-off. But in such a period, I really want to split myself into several to use.
