Ma Chao rushed to the front, and all the Yizhou troops who stood in front of him were swept to the ground by the halberd in his hand.

Soon, he tore a hole in the enemy array.

If it weren't for the fact that there was no way back, the Yizhou Army front at this time would have collapsed.

The morale of the Yizhou army was rapidly fading, but the Wei army was greatly encouraged, and let out a roar of rage and launched a fierce attack on the enemy army.

Ma Jian stood behind the army with his weapons.

Seeing that the array was loosening, he was also very flustered.

At this moment, a general of the Wei army came out of the battle formation and rushed straight towards Ma Yan.

Seeing that someone was killed, Ma Jian hurriedly shouted: "Block him for me!" ”

It was Ma Chao who rushed out.

Seeing him rushing out of the battle formation with a sea of people, the Yizhou army had long been afraid of him, who dared to come forward to fight?

The guards beside Ma Tan were also frightened and did not dare to step forward.

Ma Chao was about to rush over with his halberd, and the guards saw that there was no way to avoid it, so they all turned their hearts and roared to meet them.

Not to mention them, even if there are a few generals who are ten times more fierce than them, Ma Chao will not pay attention to them at this time.

Rushing towards Ma Tan, Ma Chao roared: "Ma Tan, lend me a head!" ”

His thunderous roar stunned the guards.

Before the guards could react, Ma Chao had already rushed in front of them.

I saw a flash of cold light, and more than a dozen guards were swept over by his halberd.

also expected the guards to be able to stop Ma Chao for a moment, but unexpectedly that they couldn't resist even half a round, Ma Jian suddenly became even more flustered.

Ma Chao was about to rush forward, and there was no way to retreat, so he could only meet him hard.

"Lend me my head, it depends on your ability......" Ma Jian roared, but before he finished his next words, he felt a pain in his chest.

Looking down at his chest, he saw Ma Chao's halberd penetrating through his chest and reaching the pole.

looked at his chest, looked up at Ma Chao again, Ma Yan's legs were weak and he fell.

Ma Chao didn't cut off other people's heads, held the pole of the halberd with both hands, picked him up with force, lifted him high like a banner, and shouted to the soldiers on both sides who were fighting: "Ma Jian is dead, and the Yizhou army still hasn't surrendered?" ”

Hearing Ma Chao's shout, the two sides of the fight stopped one after another.

The soldiers turned their heads to look at Ma Chao, and the Yizhou army was stunned one by one, and they had not recovered from their fear.

The Wei soldiers were greatly encouraged and let out a burst of earth-shattering cheers.

Ma Chao rushed through the battle formation of the Yizhou army, and cut Ma Jian in the middle of the ten thousand troops, and the Yizhou army, which had long been blown up by mines and lost their courage, put down their swords one after another and surrendered to the Wei army led by him.

On Cuiping Mountain, the Wei army strung the surrendered Yizhou army together like grasshoppers with ropes and drove them down the mountain.

Ma Chao walked at the back with a halberd.

As he was about to descend the mountain, he glanced back.

Looking at the top of the mountain, where thousands of Yizhou troops were once stationed, but at this time it was about to become empty, the corners of his mouth slightly pulled up an indifferent smile.

The army crossed the south bank of the Sanjiang estuary, and Fa Zheng led the army all the way forward, and the only thing that would bother them was the enemy troops stationed on Cuiping Mountain.

The enemy army on Cuiping Mountain was destroyed, and Yizhou was at peace from then on.

The rest of the matter depends on how to choose.

Ma Chao broke through Cuiping Mountain, Fa Zheng chased after him for a few days, and after finding Liu Bei's family, he confirmed that Zhuge Liang had gone to Nanban, and he immediately ordered that the army be stationed nearby, and he took Xu Chu back to Chengdu to resume his life.

What happened on the south bank of the Sanjiang estuary, Cao Shuo, who was in Chengdu, already knew everything.

He even knew that Fa Zheng had left the army in the south and returned to Chengdu to recover his life.

In the backyard of the Shu Han Palace, Cao Shuo took Jiang Wei and Lu Xun to walk along the bluestone path.

"Fa Xiaozhi is coming." Cao Shuo said: "He killed Liu Bei's family, the revenge is avenged, Zhuge Liang went to Nanban, he doesn't know whether to move forward or stop, it's time to come back and revenge on me!" ”

"The Nanban has attacked and harassed the Yizhou border many times, and Yizhou has also sent troops and horses to encircle and suppress it, but with little effect." Jiang Wei replied: "Today's Southern Barbarian King Meng Shu is a capable person. This person is brave and brave, and the average fierce general is really not his opponent. ”

"Southern Barbarian King Meng Shu?" Cao Shuo grinned and asked, "Is his wife Mrs. Zhurong?" ”

"Mrs. Zhurong?" Jiang Wei shook his head: "I haven't heard of such a person, I've only heard of Queen Zhurong." ”

"Aren't Meng Shu and Zhu Rong husband and wife?" Cao Shuo was stunned for a moment and asked Jiang Wei.

"How can it be a husband and wife." Jiang Wei replied: "Zhu Rong is the daughter of the old Nanban King, and Meng Shousui is the Nanban King, but he is not liked by the old Wang. The two families often fight each other, and Zhu Rong becomes Meng Huo's wife? I don't think it's possible! ”

Cao Shuo suddenly understood that Meng Shu and Zhu Rong were still young at this time, and they had not reached a marriage contract with each other, let alone become husband and wife.

"Do you think I should continue my crusade against the Nanban?" Cao Shuo said: "The Nanban is entrenched in the south, and we did not have any conflict with them in the past, but now I have Yizhou, and the south is connected to each other where they are resting. As long as the turf is connected, sooner or later there will be conflicts. In my opinion, the time has come for this battle to be fought. ”

"Didn't the lord want to fight the northern people first?" Lu Xun asked, "Did the people ignore it?" ”

"Of course it's not that it's ignored!" Cao Shuo said: "Attacking the Qiang people must involve a lot. The Xiongnu people migrated from the west when they were originally the Xiongnu, and they once existed as Xiongnu subordinates. Now that the people are strong, there is a tendency to get rid of the suzerain. But once we defeat the Xiongnu, the Huns will also be jealous of us, fearing that the army will crusade against the Xiongnu again. In addition to the Xiongnu, we also have to face the Wuhuan, Qiang, and Xianbei tribes. It will take 10 to 20 years to destroy them all. Compared with the north, the southern barbarians are easier to deal with. ”

"The lord is right, it's just that Nanban is not easy to deal with." Jiang Wei said: "The ferocity of the Nanban is secondary, and more importantly, there is a lot of miasma in the jungle in the Nanban region. If you want to find the barbarians and annihilate them, you must pass through these miasma-filled jungles. To defeat the Nanban, we not only need to have complete armaments and sufficient military rations, but more importantly, we also need to have guides. ”

"Wizard?" A slight smile appeared on the corner of Cao Shuo's mouth, and he instructed Deng Zhan: "Take the map of the Nanban in my house." ”

Cao Shuo asked Cao Jun to lead people to draw maps, and later, although Cao Jun no longer traveled in person, his men were persistently drawing.

The Nanban map, Cao Shuo had it a few years ago, but he never had the opportunity to use it.

Deng Zhan went to his residence, and after a while, he retrieved a map of Nanban drawn in sheepskin. 2k reading web
