At this time, Ma Chao had just turned 17 years old, and his martial arts were the champion of the three armies, his handsome appearance, and his extraordinary outfit of lion helmet and beast belt, white robe and silver armor on weekdays, and there was also "undiminished Lu Bu's bravery", so he was named Jin Ma Chao.

And the other young general in the tent is Ma Teng's favorite general, Captain Pang De Pang Lingming. This person is not only extraordinary in martial arts, but also quite intelligent, and he has made great contributions to following Ma Teng's crusade against Qiangdi.

Pang Dewei sat with his hands on his knees, not as domineering as Ma Chao, but a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, showing that he was different.

The charcoal fire was vigorous and crackling, Ma Teng pondered for a while and asked: "Meng Qi and Ling Ming, they are going to attack Chang'an to rescue Your Majesty in the near future, have you ever prepared?" ”

"Father, don't worry, Li Dao and the others can't get into the eyes of the child!" Ma Chao got up and bowed.

A smile appeared on Ma Teng's face, his son was indeed a difficult general, but Ma Teng's heart was slightly worried. Ma Chao has only suffered losses at the hands of Yan Xing since he was a child, but that is all in the past, fortunately, he has Pang De by his side.

Then Ma Teng turned his head and looked at Pound again, but did not speak. At this time, Pang De's face was serious, and after discovering Ma Teng's hot gaze, he got up and said: "Lord, the last general and the soldiers under his command have already prepared, but the last general is ......." ”

Finding Pang De spitting, Ma Teng immediately said: "Ling Ming, you might as well tell what you are worried about, and the three of us can discuss it." ”

"My lord, although the hussar general sent troops to Beidi County and attracted Li Wei's elite, Chang'an City is still high and thick-walled. Although when attacking Chang'an, there will be internal responses, if internal responses fail, they will not be able to take Chang'an in a short time, and what should be done when the time comes? ”

"Ling Ming is too worried, the hussar general's personality is still trustworthy." Ma Teng laughed, then said with a twist of his beard.

Ma Chao, who heard this, glanced at Pang De and did not speak, but the expression on his face was unconcerned.

"What about the thick walls of Chang'an City? The Xiliang Army is already at the end of its strong crossbow! Ma Chao thought to himself.

Pound looked at Ma Chao and didn't say anything, he Pound still knew about his young master, so he saluted Ma Teng again.

"My lord, the art of war is not a victory and a defeat, our army must first consider a retreat, once it is impossible to capture Chang'an in a short period of time, we must plan in advance, so as not to mess up the battle at the end of the day." Pound continued

"Humph!" Ma Chao snorted coldly.

"Ling Ming, my father is a veteran of a hundred battles, experienced in combat, and not afraid of death. Besides, with the help of the righteousness of the Son of Heaven, the Xiliang Army is afraid of him at the end of the crossbow! Ma Chao still couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.

In fact, in the final analysis, Ma Chao is very confident that he can attack Chang'an. When Pang De heard this, he smiled bitterly, Ma Chao's martial arts were outstanding, and he had a high prestige among the Qiang people.

But Ma Chao is very arrogant, his own sense of superiority and martial arts make him despise everything, and he doesn't put anyone in his eyes, even if the Xiliang Army is the end of the strong crossbow, it is not a soft persimmon that anyone can pinch.

"The art of war, the lord can't raise the army in anger, and he won't fight with dismay, lord, attack Chang'an....." Pang De continued to hold his fists and persuade.

"Ling Ming, I would have known that you had good intentions, but this time it was different! The Ma family urgently needs to revive the prestige of their ancestors, and now the young emperor wants to revive the Han family, which is an excellent opportunity. Even the hussar generals wanted to seize the opportunity to go further, but they couldn't reach it for a while because of the long distance! The Ma family has been loyal to the Han family for generations, and Chang'an City must be captured no matter what! Ma Teng understood Pound's painstaking efforts, and then gave his thoughts all out.

For the Ma family, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Reviving the prestige of the ancestors, Ma Teng dreamed of it, and Ma Teng was excited at this moment. In the past, the ancestor Ma Yuan was framed, but he was still loyal to the Han family. Now, if he retreats or sways, then he is not Ma Teng, the descendant of the Ma family.

Hearing Ma Teng's words, Ma Chao looked excited and clenched his fists. It's not that he doesn't understand Pound's words, the commander who leads the troops can't be emotional, however, his own personality determines that this is the case, and it is difficult to control.

After Ma Yuan, the Ma family collapsed, and during this period, countless children of the Ma family tried to recast their glory and revive the prestige of the Ma family, which Ma Chao and Ma Teng never gave up. Now that the opportunity is in front of us, how can you give it up so easily? When Pound heard this, he did not continue to persuade him.

The words of Ma Teng's father and son have been clearly stated, and although Pound is a little disappointed in his heart, he is also full of expectations. The three of them discussed for a while, and Pound took the lead in leaving the tent under the pretext of inspecting the camp.

After Pang De left, Ma Teng looked at Ma Chaoyan and said, "Meng Qi, Ling Ming's words are quite reasonable. For the sake of the Ma family's revival can be desperate, but the Ma family's bloodline will be passed on, therefore, you can't fight hard, if there is no real way to capture Chang'an in a short period of time, you will return to Xiliang with a few brothers, remember not to send troops easily! ”

Ma Teng's words were said after careful consideration, he Ma Teng can work hard for the Ma family, but the bloodline of the Ma family must continue.

"Father, Chao'er is seventeen years old, and the men of the Ma family must take on the responsibilities of the Ma family. The second brother, third brother and others can leave, but Chao'er can't, and Chao'er is willing to carry the burden of the Ma family with his father! Ma Chao said these words without even thinking about it.

At that moment, there was no sound in the whole tent except the crackling sound of the charcoal fire. Ma Teng seems calm on the surface at the moment, but his heart is not shocked. didn't speak, just looked at Ma Chao and laughed.

The atmosphere in Chang'an City became more and more eerie. All kinds of rumors emerged one after another, and Guo Yan had no way to find out, so he was a little panicked for a while, but he still ordered someone to send these situations to Jia Xu quickly, hoping to get Jia Xu's guidance.

Faced with the situation of messages flying all over the sky, Guo Yan also ordered his soldiers to cheer up, and scouts from all walks of life came and went intensively, as long as they detected any disturbances, they would keep coming back.

One by one, the Xiliang soldiers had tense faces and very solemn expressions. Even the penchant for looting on weekdays has decreased a lot, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that the pace of war is approaching step by step.

Who knows when the big war will begin? Will they be able to survive after the war? All of this is unknown, and the tense atmosphere makes the entire Chang'an City a little breathless.

For a few days, there were a lot of scouts dispatched, but very few returned, in such a situation, how could Guo Yan not know what was happening!

"Have the people sent to Hangu Pass come back?" Guo Yan nervously asked about the scouts sent to Jia Xu.

"General Yu, Hangu Pass has not yet returned with the news!" The guards didn't know how to answer, and today Guo Yan was already asking for the tenth time.

"Alas! That's it! It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided! Guo Yan seemed to have figured out a lot, and said with a long sigh.
