What Zhang Lu didn't expect was that Liu Feng entered Yangping Pass ahead of schedule this time, not because he was afraid that he would find out that Liu Feng had sent troops to Jiameng Pass, but because he couldn't bear to see the innocent and tragic death of the sergeants on both sides.

"Why is General Gongqi like this? Isn't this battle not yet enjoyable, and you have to fight with Cao Pi in the battle with real knives and guns before you are willing to give up? Seeing everyone's expressions, Liu Feng smiled softly and spoke.

Zhang Lu knew that he had to make a choice at this time, whether to fight with Cao Pi until the last moment, or demote Liu Feng in order to give him a stable place.

"Since General Ziwei said so, Lu has no reason to allow it, this land in Hanzhong is already connected to Yizhou, lips and teeth depend on each other, Liu Zhang is cowardly and can't defend, but General Ziwei is different, I think Yizhou will be as stable as Mount Tai under the rule of General Ziwei, this Yangpingguan and the 40,000 Hanzhong soldiers under his command will be handed over to General Ziwei today, and the lives of Lu and his generals are all up to General Ziwei!"

Since Hanzhong can't be kept horizontally and vertically, and Liu Feng has already arrived in the pass, then Zhang Lu naturally has to make good use of the step that Liu Feng gave him, otherwise in the end, I am afraid that he will not be able to leave even a whole corpse. Thinking of this, Zhang Lu had no choice but to put down his body, walked to Liu Feng, and then bowed to the ground.

"That's very good, there is still one thing about Feng, I don't know if General Gongqi can be a witness here?" When Liu Feng heard this, he helped Zhang Lu up, looked at Zhang Lu and asked.

"Since this land in Hanzhong has been owned by General Ziwei, the general has orders at this time, and Lu is naturally omnipotent."

Liu Feng saw that Zhang Lu really replied like this, and immediately smiled: "In this way, there is General Lao Gongqi." ”

Then, to everyone's surprise, Liu Feng turned to Ma Chao, who was standing behind everyone at this time, with a somewhat gloomy face.

Ma Chao saw Liu Feng looking at him, his heart sank, in his mind, Liu Feng must have told him about sending someone to meet him secretly a few days ago, and forced him to surrender to Liu Feng.

"Feng as early as a few years ago, I heard the prestige of the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry, and the land of Jingzhou, does not produce war horses, so although Feng is very eager to get an elite cavalry in the past few years, but until today it is not lawless, if not, the land of Yizhou has already arrived in my hands, why wait until today? General Meng Qi is the first fierce general in Liangzhou, Feng is also the name of the general, and he knows that the general in the battle of Tongguan has forced the invincible Cao ** to be extremely embarrassed, if it were not for bad luck, I am afraid that he would have already taken Cao Cao's head, therefore, Feng wanted General Gongqi to be a witness, help Feng Gui persuade General Meng Qi, so that he and Feng together to fight against Cao Cao, so as to avenge the blood revenge of his people! ”

As soon as Liu Feng said this, Ma Chao was a little confused in his heart, according to what Liu Feng said, it was as if he had never had anything to do with Ma Chao, but had only heard of Ma Chao's name, but Zhang Lu was regarded by Liu Feng as the intermediary in this matter.

After thinking about it again, looking at the smile on Liu Feng's cover, Ma Chao finally understood a little that the reason why Liu Feng did this was to let Ma Chao be a general in Liu Feng's army openly.

But in this way, everyone will think that Liu Feng is just at the right time, and they are eager to seek talents, and they will definitely not associate Ma Chao and Liu Feng together.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Zhang Lu hurriedly turned his gaze to Ma Chao, and said: "General Meng Qi is a talented man, and he has buried the general's heroic posture in my Hanzhong, and it is Meng Qi's luck to be fortunate to see General Ziwei this time!" On this land of the Central Plains, except for General Ziwei, I am afraid that no one dares to confront Cao Cao head-on, so no one dares to take in General Meng Qi, only General Ziwei can defeat Cao Cao in a few years and avenge the blood feud for Meng Qi......"

At this time, Zhang Lu, where can he care about whether Ma Chao has already had a relationship with Liu Feng, what he thinks in his heart is to let Liu Feng do everything well in this Yangping Pass, and then repel Cao Pi, only in this way can he save his life.

In Zhang Lu's heart, he also had some calculations when Liu Feng gave the two roads before, but after some careful consideration, Zhang Lu thought that with Cao Pi's 70,000 horses, he could not take away Yangping Pass in Liu Feng's hands, and this time he could not break Yangping Pass, and when Liu Feng connected Hanzhong with Yizhou, Cao Cao would not be able to get such a good opportunity even if he sent more than 100,000 troops to come, and Liu Feng's more than 200,000 troops were enough to defend Yizhou and Hanzhong.

In this way, Zhang Lucai chose Liu Feng between Liu Feng and Cao Pi, since he chose Liu Feng, how could he not do his best to persuade Ma Chao?

Liu Feng saw that Ma Chao still did not say anything after Zhang Lu's persuasion, so he stepped forward and said to Ma Chao: "If General Meng Qi arrives in my Yizhou army, no matter how many sergeants and counties there are in the future, the cavalry in the army will be under the command of the general!" ”

Liu Feng's promise, so that standing on his side Zhang Lu secretly admired in his heart, only in the heart, the gap between him and Liu Feng is already very large, Ma Chao in Hanzhong this more than a few days, although Zhang Lu is very polite to him, but the military power in Hanzhong is still in the hands of Zhang Wei, and it is precisely because of this that the army is negligent in training, there is that there is a big defeat on the battlefield, Zhang Lu only thought at this time, if the responsibility of the army is handed over to Ma Chao, most of today's things will not be so embarrassing.

If Ma Chao really hesitated in his heart before, because he led the army to fight a defeated battle under Liu Feng's prying eyes, he was afraid that even if he was under Liu Feng's command, he would still not be reused as if he was under Zhang Lu, after hearing Liu Feng's promise, Ma Chao had no reason to refuse in his heart.

Since he was determined in his heart, Ma Chao immediately bit his silver teeth, and bowed down to Liu Feng and said: "Thanks to the lord's refusal to give up, Chao is willing to follow the work of dogs and horses under the lord's command, train a group of elite cavalry for the lord, and cut down all the tigers and leopards under Cao Cao's command!" ”

The tiger and leopard riding is the trump card division in the Cao army, Ma Chao fought with him in Tongguan, and he was also amazed by his strength.

After Liu Feng helped Ma Chao up, he didn't give up, but walked to the side of Yan Pu again, and asked softly: "I wonder if Mr. is willing to work with General Meng Qi to create a great cause with Feng?" ”
