Long Cheng hurriedly explained, "Back to the lord, Li Juncheng also values the villain. It's just that this time the intelligence is too important, and Li Juncheng doesn't have any reliable people in the army, so he was selected by the army with the qualifications of a villain. ”

"Hmm." Ma Zhong also has some understanding of this. At the beginning, Li Fei was allowed to take charge of the mature Junzheng team alone, which was in itself to limit his influence in the Junzheng team.

Although there was some suspicion at the time, Li Fei also proved his loyalty in this battle, but after all, it was a good precedent, and Ma Zhong didn't want to change it again.

The consequence of this is that when encountering any key and urgent matters, Li Fei has no available manpower.

Especially with such information related to the life and death of the front battalion, Li Fei's unfamiliarity with his subordinates made him unable to choose any trustworthy characters at all.

Fortunately, there are still a group of figures such as Long Cheng who followed Ma Zhong very early in the army, and Li Fei could only select Long Cheng from among them.

Ma Zhong said with a smile, "Today's matter, you did an excellent job. I can give you two choices, one is to return to the army, I will let Li Fei promote you to the rank of military cao, and you will cooperate well with him. The other is to follow my apprentice Chen Yi to study hard for a few months, come to me as a clerk, and advise me a lot on weekdays. ”

Long Cheng hesitated slightly when he heard this, and then said earnestly, "The villain is willing to stay in the army, and I also want to ask Chen Cangcao to teach me to read and write." ”

Ma Zhong was a little surprised and asked, "Why is this?" ”

Boy, you've clearly triggered the hidden quest.

Lao Tzu is going to appreciate you for a wave.

Such a good hidden plot is in front of you, and you don't accept it.

Long Cheng looked at Ma Zhong respectfully, "It is really disrespectful to use the matter of advising the lord as a flaunt, and even use this as his own goal to find fault with the words and deeds of the lord, and it is not the original intention of the villain." The villain is willing to be in the army and whip those black sheep for the lord. ”

Ma Zhong groaned slightly, and then smiled, "Well, I know, you can go." ”

Long Cheng saw Ma Zhong flipping through the information in his hand, and half of his body knelt down again.

Ma Zhong was surprised, "What? ”

Long Cheng hurriedly replied, "The military intelligence on the front line of the Lord is urgent, if there is any reply, I will bring it back immediately." ”

Ma Zhong looked at the information in his hand carefully, and had a faint headache, with Li Fei's education level, there were even paintings in it, which really made Ma Zhong confused.

He threw it to Long Cheng, "Take a look for yourself." ”

Long Cheng picked it up in confusion and looked at it, immediately closed the information, and said directly, "Since this is the case, then let the villain tell the lord about it." ”

Immediately, Long Chengcheng told Ma Zhong in detail about the situation on the front line.

When Ma Zhong heard that there was no water in the place where Ma Tan had camped at the beginning, his whole heart was cold.

How did the Battle of Jieting lose in the first place, wasn't it because Ma Jian set up the camp on the high ground without water?

Now it's a good thing, also facing Cao Wei's cavalry, Ma Jian made exactly the same mistake.

It's still blindfolded to grab the high ground.

Is the Highlands that good?

If you don't have enough water, you can't keep it.

Fortunately, listening to Long Cheng's retelling, Ma Jian himself realized the problem, and the only regret was that it was too late at that time.

When Long Cheng left, the front camp of the Xie Fu soldiers was rushing to repair the new camp, and at that time, Zhang Meng's forward had not yet arrived, but it was not far away.

Ma Zhong listened to the information told by Long Cheng, and his face became a little serious.

In particular, I heard that Zhang Liao even tried to set up an ambush in Zhaoguan, waiting for himself to block the intersection of Zhaoguan.

Ma Zhong was very sensitive to the slightest problem.

This Zhang Liao doesn't seem to be as unrestrained as he imagined.

With such a cautious temperament, how could he go out and rush to the Jiangdong Army to open up the Wushuang and fight a powerful Xiaoyaojin?

Ma Zhong hesitated, and it was even more difficult to make a decision for a while.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Ma Zhong made up his mind, "Okay, early tomorrow morning, I will lead people to step up the march and make peace with the former camp as soon as possible." ”

Although Ma Zhong's attitude still seemed procrastinating, Long Cheng did not talk nonsense.

His mission is to let Ma Zhong know the emergency military situation on the front line, as for how Ma Zhong decides, in the face of this soul of the troublesome soldiers, Long Cheng does not dare to have the slightest question.

Long Cheng asked cautiously, "Lord, is there any news for the villain to pass back?" The villain can rush over the same night. ”

Ma Zhong listened, thought for a while and said, "It's okay, you just go and ask Ma Yan, I asked him the fourth question, does he have an answer now?" ”

Long Cheng was slightly surprised when he heard this, and after confirming it, he hurriedly beat his horse away.

Ma Zhong looked at Long Cheng's distant figure, and was thinking about it, but Sun Shangxiang's somewhat cold voice came from his ears, "Your subordinates are born and die, but you are hiding here." Don't you feel a little ashamed? ”

Ma Zhong smiled slightly when he heard this, "I have my own plans." ”

Ma Zhong didn't turn his head, and Sun Shangxiang didn't deliberately look at him.

Just listen to Sun Shangxiang's cold voice and continue, "Maybe." If it were me, I wouldn't do it. ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Ma Zhong continued to look at the west, silently planning.

……

As soon as it dawned on the second day, Ma Zhong urged the Shanzi camp to hurry up and get on the road.

Bailichuan wondered in his heart, but hurriedly drove the soldiers forward.

As a result, it was like entering the deep forest for the first time, startling the birds, and suddenly a few scouts on horseback ran out of the roadside, and they slipped away into the distance.

Bailichuan's face showed a hint of anger!

I was touched so close by the enemy's scouts!

He looked back, and he could even see the gate of the camp he had just left.

He shouted, "Come on, take a look around, don't fall into the enemy's ambush." ”

Sun Shangxiang was still in charge of protecting Ma Zhong, but his face was a little colder than before.

As if explaining, Ma Zhong pointed at the scouts and said softly, "See?" The distance of ten miles is nothing to the wolf cavalry of the state with a large number of cavalry. Their scouts could easily see where we were. Therefore, we are here and go to the front camp, and the effect of containing the enemy is not much different. ”

Sun Shangxiang snorted coldly and didn't say much.

Ma Zhong closed his mouth very interestingly.

He was right, the distance of ten miles was not slow for the cavalry team, but what made Ma Zhong a little strange was that he seemed to have left the camp for a long time and did not see the expected cavalry impact!

This made Ma Zhong, who had already made preparations, slightly stunned.

Then Ma Zhong's heart tightened, "Could it be that the attack has reached a critical time in front?" ”

Ma Zhong's originally somewhat calm mentality also tensed.

Regardless of victory or defeat, it is a very acceptable result, and Ma Zhong is also targeted, but if you work hard, you can change the ending, which is undoubtedly the most worrying time.

Ma Zhong had to speak again to urge, "Hurry up!" ”
