But the troubles of Zhang Jaw seemed to have just begun, and at night, some soldiers came to report that there were a large number of deserters in the army. Zhang Jaw couldn't help but be shocked, and soon woke up, after all, a large number of soldiers in his army were people from Hebei, and their countryside was behind them, and they were frightened and fearful of the Ma family army, so they naturally chose to be deserters.

"I see. The other army had already expected that the morale of our army had reached a low point, so they used Rentou Mountain as a deterrent, and then set a three-day period to make our soldiers afraid. In addition, most of the soldiers of our army are ordinary people in Hebei, so it is natural that a large number of deserters will appear. The depth of this attack is really exquisite. And now that Guo Jia is not here, I am afraid that the only one with such skills is Feng Yuantu. He said with a bang, shaking his head.

"That's right! It's that Feng Yuantu, this damn traitor, I regarded him as a confidant back then, how could I have thought that he would betray the master and join the enemy, and now he is helping the Ma family to break through my Jishui Pass!! At this time, seeing the trial mate striding in, at first glance, he couldn't help but open his jaw and be startled. I saw that the judge's hair was messy, the two black bags under his eyes were extremely terrifying, and his face was haggard and pale, as if he was about to die of exhaustion.

"Strategist, you!" Zhang Jaw was frightened and fled, and hurriedly went to support the trial. The judge waved his hand to signal that there was nothing to do, and then sat down on the side with the help of Zhang Jaw.

"Eh, the original situation was bad, but even the generals of our army couldn't hide, and Feng Yuantu's tricks were really exquisite, and it was natural for such a situation to occur. But..."I saw that the judge suddenly sighed, raised his head slightly, and suddenly showed a little ruddy on his extremely haggard face, and his eyes suddenly brightened.

"This battle of Jishuiguan can let me see the real courage of ghosts and gods, as well as the strength of the fierce army under his command, and it is not in vain. Moreover, this ghost and god is by no means only brute force, he knows more about martial arts, whether it is this strategy of dividing troops or this strategy of attacking the heart, he can see the depth of it and allocate it. This so-called, as I often say, although there are counselors who offer plans, but if there is no decisive ruler, no matter how good the strategy, what is the use? The more he spoke, the brighter his eyes became, and even his face showed a bit of hot admiration. Zhang Jaw couldn't help but clench his fists, gritted his teeth secretly, and listened to the interrogation with such a speech, it seemed that he still had the heart to surrender to the Ma family. So Zhang Jaw had already made a quick decision in his heart, if he dared to rebel, he would kill him on the spot!

"Woo Woo!" Suddenly, the judge shouted. Hearing this, Zhang Jaw hurriedly restrained his expression and gave his hand in agreement.

"Come here." The judge beckoned to Zhang Jaw, who was nervous and his eyes narrowed, so he leaned his head over. The judge immediately muttered in a low voice. The jaw suddenly changed color, and his face was full of color.

"Hmph, this trial Zhengnan has the intention to surrender to the Ma family thief, and now he still wants to drag Zhang Junyi along! This time I have done a great job, and I should report it to the Fire Marquis as soon as possible! But he didn't know that at this time, among the guards guarding outside, there was a general named Chen Xiao who was secretly monitoring the situation inside the enemy building.

At the time of the second watch that night, Chen Xiao came to Wen Chou's tent. I saw that the tent was gloomy, and I didn't even light the lights, but I could faintly see two faint lights flickering. At this time, there happened to be a ray of moonlight shining through, and I saw a large and sturdy man sitting on the bed, with a stench of blood mixed with the smell of blood, and his hair was scattered, and people did not look like people and ghosts.

This is the former Hebei's No. 1 fierce general Wen Chou, but who would have thought that he would end up so depressed now?

Chen Xiao couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva and quickly knelt down.

"You said you had something urgent to report, what the hell is it!?" Hoarse and resentful, but a little trembling voice came. When Chen Xiao heard this, how dare he slack off, and hurriedly reported what he saw today to Wen Chou.

Wen Chou listened to it, and he didn't make a sound for a long time, but there was no resentment or murderous aura bursting out of his body, and the silent and gloomy atmosphere was even more frightening. Chen Xiao was already sweating profusely now, and even regretted that he had to report it with too much mouth, for fear that Wen Chou would suddenly lose his mind and go crazy and kill him to vent his anger!

"I see... Stand down..."Wen Chou said lightly, unexpectedly calm, and taught Chen Xiao to retreat. Chen Xiao was instantly relieved, and hurriedly took the order to retreat.

However, it was said that Zhang Jaw seemed to have other arrangements, and did not stop the soldiers from escaping, so those who were timid and fearful fled one after another, and many of those who were caught, Zhang Jaw only imprisoned them, and there was no punishment for the time being.

So overnight, the Hebei army fled five or six hundred soldiers.

The first day is over. Early the next morning, when he came to report, Ma Zongheng heard that Zhang Jaw did not stop the deserters, but instead showed admiration, and said: "This Zhang Junyi is very smart, with the current situation of the Hebei Army, if he strictly stops and kills, it will inevitably cause panic in the Hebei Army, and even a military rebellion." And he didn't stop it, let it go, and even if he was caught, he would not be severely punished, but only imprisoned. When the rest of the soldiers saw it, they were able to take it as a warning, but they were afraid of being caught, so they did not dare to run away lightly. ”

"Hmph, even so. As the situation of the Hebei army deteriorated day by day, it would inevitably collapse after two days. When the time comes, if the lord wants to take it, he will be free to explore it in his pocket! After Feng Ji snorted coldly, his eyes were blazing, and he shouted.

"This time I am fortunate to have Yuantu's advice, otherwise it will take a lot of hard work to break through this Jishui Pass. When the war is over, I will have a great reward! Ma Zongheng said to Feng Ji. Feng Ji was happy, but he didn't dare to be presumptuous, he was busy with a look of panic, and said: "This is all because the lord is brave, and he cowardly the enemy army first, and I just have a little trick from it." ”

However, he said that between Ma Zongheng and Feng Ji's discussion, on the other side, on the Jishui Pass, the trial was with Zhang Jaw watching Ma Jiajun under the pass.

Suddenly, a gust of wind struck, blowing the robes and robes of the two of them were hunting.

"You see, this Ma family army is not only fierce, but also disciplined, with a clear division of labor, no wonder whenever it is killed, the Ma family army is rarely defeated. If you can take a victory from the hands of Ma Jiajun and under the leadership of the ghost god Ma Xi, it will inevitably become a hot topic of conversation among people all over the world in the future. But seeing that the judge's expression was much better, it was like taking off all the burdens at once, and there was even a little bit of chic cutting through the red dust.

When Zhang Jaw heard this, his face looked a little entangled and pathetic, and he said hurriedly: "Strategist, you don't have to be like this. ”

"Hey! Although I judge Zhengnan, although he is greedy for merit and profit, he still has loyalty in his heart, and this may be the only opportunity that can make me correct my name and leave my name in history. The judge waved his hand and said lightly. Zhang opened his mouth, hesitated for a while, and saw such a firm look in the judge's eyes, but in the end he didn't say anything to persuade again.

"Also, you sue the lord for me, but I judge Nan Xiaocai but have no virtue, and I am not suitable for this military division. And that Tian Yuanhao is upright and loyal, intelligent, talented and virtuous, and I don't know how many times better than my Zhengnan Trial. He is the only person who is worthy of being my Hebei Army Division..."As soon as this remark came out, Zhang Jaw couldn't help but feel a little sad. He knew very well that the trial was an extremely arrogant person, and he was never willing to show weakness to his competitor Tian Feng. The two fought for half their lives, and the trial finally took the position of chief strategist from Tian Feng, but in the end, the trial still gave up this position back to Tian Feng.

Zhang Jaw couldn't help but have a little respect for the judge.

The judge looked back at his open jaw and saw that his eyes were full of respect for him, and he couldn't help but smile, and asked again: "By the way, how is the qiē preparation of Yiyi?" ”

Zhang Jaw immediately looked solemn, and replied with his hand: "Back to the military division, I am ready for seven or eight." ”

"Where is the Flame Marquis, have you told him?" The judge suddenly narrowed his eyes, saying that he really didn't have a good impression of Wen Chou, a horseman who only had force and acted impulsively, although Wen Chou also had some experience in strategy, but his fiery personality really made him unbearable. But think about it deeply, Wen Chou is also a poor person, thinking about how majestic he was at the beginning, he was worshiped by all the people in Hebei, and now I am afraid that he is not as good as a lost dog, if he changes to someone who is not strong-willed, I am afraid that he will go crazy a long time ago.

"Commander, I told the Marquis of Flame as you ordered, but he was surprisingly quiet. I'm a little worried, so I'll tell him the truth. Zhang Jaw sank and said with a little worry.

"No, the Flame Marquis has a fiery temper, and if he learns about it, he will definitely stay strong. After many years of vicious battles, there is now a shortage of officers and soldiers in the Hebei Army, and he is a general who can charge into battle and dispatch troops. Therefore, the Hebei army can judge the south without me, but it can't do without you and the Agni Hou to take charge! The judge's eyes were impressive, like two stars, staring at Zhang Jaw tightly, but he also knew that Zhang Jaw had the intention to stay, and this was also said to Zhang Jaw, so he broke the idea of Zhang Jaw early.

Zhang Jaw saw that the judge saw through his thoughts, and his face couldn't help but change, and he was about to speak. The judge waved his hand, turned back, and said: "It is really my luck to be able to die in the sea of fire with such a hero as the ghost god Ma Xi." But if Ma Xi dies, the Ma family army will inevitably be in chaos, but you have to warn the lord that you can't be greedy for merit and quick profit and attack Yanzhou. First stabilize Jizhou, then calm the rebellion in Youzhou, first repel the soldiers and horses of Liu Xizi, and then annihilate the remnants of Gongsun Zhan. As for Cao Cao, he is now conquering Yuan Shu, and I am afraid that it will inevitably lead to a series of fierce battles, so the lord does not have to worry that Cao Cao will come to fight for Yanzhou. ”

Hearing the trial as if he was explaining what was behind him, he couldn't help but have tears in his eyes, and suddenly knelt down on one knee and bowed to the trial with respect.

That night, many soldiers of the Hebei Army were still waiting for the opportunity to escape, but they knew that there was a secret order to the whereabouts of the trial, and the whole army was ordered to withdraw as much as possible. When the soldiers of the Hebei Army heard this, they couldn't help but be happy, packed up overnight, and retreated at night. Zhang Jaw originally wanted to take a dry load and withdraw the armament finally, but at Wen Chou's insistence, he had to lead a cadre of elites to withdraw first. After Wen Chou finished cleaning up his soldiers, he also left around the fourth watch.

The trial stayed awake all night, and waited until Wen Chou left, then he put his mind at ease, and then taught this and this with the remaining henchmen, and then went back to the enemy building to repair a book.

Seeing that the morning sun of the new day was slowly rising again, Ma Zongheng just got up, and learned from Xizuo that after Jishui Pass last night, there seemed to be a lot of movement, as if there were many deserters who fled again. When Ma Zongheng heard this, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice, thinking that after tonight, he would be able to launch an offensive and take this Jishui Pass.

Unconsciously, at dusk, the atmosphere in front of Jishui Pass seemed quite depressing, and at this moment, suddenly a confidant who was judged came to meet him. When Ma Zongheng heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked, and quickly summoned him to see him.

After a while, inside the tiger tent. Ma Zongheng looked at the secret letter in his hand, and couldn't help laughing: "The so-called person who knows the times is Junjie, and he can observe the current situation in the south of the judgement, but he is also a character." You quickly go back and report that tonight's third watch, Ma will go according to the appointment, and after taking the Jishui Pass, there will be a heavy reward!! ”

Ma Zongheng said, and ordered the left and right to give ten taels of gold as a reward, and the fine work was overjoyed, and thanked him and retreated. And as soon as Na Xiaozuo left, Ma Zongheng immediately looked solemn and frowned.

Feng Ji looked at the horse's vertical and horizontal expression, quickly got up, and said, "Lord!" This judge is a villain who is greedy for merit and profit, but he is not a villain who rebels and defects to the enemy. ”
