After a while, I saw three generals come to the tent and said to Jieli Khan: "I have seen the Great Khan, the last general and others did not obey the orders of the Great Khan and entered the army without authorization, which is really a capital crime, but the last general and others also have a heart to serve the country, and ask the Great Khan to forgive the sin, and the last general is willing to kill the enemy to protect the country, and will make meritorious contributions to repay the virtue of the Great Khan." ”

"Keyong, Jingjiao, Zhiyuan, you are late, Ma Chao is brave and difficult, our army lost the battle, even the siege equipment was destroyed by the Han army, Ben Khan is preparing to withdraw his troops." Although Jieli Khan wanted to use the other party, he did not say it directly, but used the method of agitation, trying to make the other party take the initiative to ask for war through this strategy.

Li Keyong, Shi Jingjiao and Liu Zhiyuan are all cunning people, so they naturally understand what is going on when they hear it, knowing that this is a good opportunity for them to be in the limelight, and of course it is also a good opportunity for Jieli Khan to weaken their own strength, Shi Jingjiao and Liu Zhiyuan because there are not many fierce generals available under their command, if they forcibly ask for battle, not only will they not be able to stand out from the limelight, but I am afraid that the only point of vision will also be weakened because of this, so they are just silent and dare not say more.

However, Li Keyong was not afraid, he saluted to Jieli Khan, and said a little proudly: "Don't worry, the Great Khan has thirteen names under the command of the last general, they are proud of their bravery, and they are arrogantly called the Thirteen Taibao, which is really ridiculous, but they do still have some ability, especially my thirteen sons are filial piety, and they have the courage of ten thousand people, Hugh wants to say that it is Ma Chao, even if Liu He is in person, he will definitely not be able to ask for benefits." ”

"Oh? Is this true? Let the filial piety warrior come to see it. Jieli Khan was overjoyed and immediately said.

"No!" Li Ke was proud in his heart, and ordered his soldiers: "Invite the thirteenth prince." ”

After a short time, the tabernacle was opened, and a general walked in and saluted the Khan.

Jieli Khan saw that this person would have a silver helmet and silver armor, a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and he liked it very much in his heart, and let people give him wine and meat, and then said: "Su Wen Cunxiao is born with divine power, and he is brave, and he is enough to be my first Turkic general, but I don't know if I can defeat Ma Chao?" ”

Li Cunxiao sneered slightly when he heard this: "Great Khan, the last general came this time to defeat Ma Chao and establish his prestige, and after defeating Ma Chao, the last general will have to compete with Lu Bu, who is known as the first in the world." ”

"Okay, it's really full of pride, since that's the case, then Ben Khan will send you to lead your troops and horses to Cangsong City to challenge Ma Chao, and Ben Khan will also raise troops to sweep the battle for you, I don't know if you dare to go to Cunxiao?"

"Hehe, what did the Great Khan say? I can't ask for it. Li Cunxiao, with a sneer, said lightly: "This battle will definitely make that Ma Chao the head!" ”

"Good! Then I will appoint you as the vanguard officer, lead the soldiers of the headquarters, and go to Cangsong City to fight, this Ma Chao just won a big victory yesterday, and now he is complacent, he will definitely fight, and it will be up to you to be filial to you when the time comes. ”

Jieli Khan was overjoyed and immediately handed over the vanguard seal to Li Cunxiao and let him fight.

At this time, he saw a general break in from outside the tent and said to Jieli Khan: "Great Khan, you don't need a thirteenth brother at all, the last general can clean up that Ma Chao." ”

"This is ......" Looking at the person who came in, Jieli Khan looked ignorant and asked everyone.

I saw Li Keyong say with a smile: "This is my fourth son, named Cunxin, this son is both wise and brave, and he is also a rare talent." ”

"Oh? It turned out that Ke used your four sons, so good, they really looked like a talent, come to people, and see the reward. ”

Although Jieli Khan rewarded Li Cunxin, he did not use him as a pioneer, firstly, because he had opened his mouth before, so naturally he couldn't take it back, isn't this a slap in the face? The second is that Li Keyong praised Li Cunxiao before, but although Li Cunxin was also full of praise, he did not have the confidence to defeat Ma Chao, how could Jieli Khan not see this?

However, Li Cun's confidence was very dissatisfied, although he was respectful on the surface, he was already very jealous of Li Cunxiao in his heart.

"Hmph, you dare to steal the limelight from me, you are too much, old thirteen, I, Li Cunxin, will never forget this shame! But with your martial arts, you dare to boast that you can defeat Ma Chao, it's really ridiculous, I want to see what kind of expression will you have when you return from defeat? ”

Li Cunxin then said to Jieli Khan: "Great Khan, the so-called brother who fights in the war, the father and son soldiers, the thirteenth brother of my family fights Ma Chao alone, it is really a feat, the last general wants to be strong for him, and sweep the battle for the thirteenth brother, I don't know what the Great Khan wants?" ”

"Since Cunxin is willing to go, then you can go, Ben Khan will send five thousand elite soldiers under my command to go with the little general Cunxin, haha, originally Ben Khan wanted to personally plunder the battle for Cunxiao, but who made you brothers? If you are sure that you will go, you will be more at ease with your filial piety, and it will also be convenient to give full play to your due strength. Jieli Khan is actually worried that Li Cunxiao is bragging, if he really can't beat Ma Chao, wouldn't he be in danger? So as soon as he heard that Li Cunxin was going, he immediately borrowed the donkey from the slope and asked Li Cunxin to go with him.

Li Cunxiao didn't have anything to do with this, he also thought that with his fourth brother there, he would feel a lot more at ease.

So Li Cunxiao and Li Cunxin thanked Jieli Khan together, and then went out of the big tent hand in hand, ordered the soldiers and horses, and went to the city of Cangsong. When he came to the city, Li Cunxiao immediately instructed his own soldiers to go and scold the battle, and tried all kinds of humiliating words.

"Ma Chao listen, the master of my family is an unknown young general, I have heard that you are strong in martial arts, and I have come to learn it, do you dare to come down and fight alone?"

"Shrinking turtle, dare to fight?"

"How about giving you a set of women's clothes? If you put on a woman's clothes, my lord will not be troubled by you. ”

......

Ma Chao at the head of the city listened to the scolding of the soldiers under the city, originally deaf ears, but then the other party scolded more and more ugly, which made Ma Chao very angry, he stood on the head of the city, looked at the city coldly, and found that there was a young general standing in front of the formation, the young general was only seventeen or eighteen years old, but his face was cold and solemn, his face was murderous, and he had a thick horse lance in his hand, which looked thicker than Liu He's.

"Humph! Do you think you're invincible with a huge lance? If you want to fight, I will fulfill you! Listening to the other party's various foul language, Ma Chao was really unbearable, so he picked up the five hundred elite cavalry under his command, rode the Dawan good horse under the seat, picked up the tiger's head and saved the golden gun, and was about to rush out.

At this time, he saw Diao Yue'e coming in a hurry, and said to Ma Chao: "General, don't be impulsive, the enemy army is so fearless, there must be a conspiracy." ”

But seeing Ma Chao smiled: "The so-called eating a trench grows a wisdom, even if they lure the enemy this time, I won't be fooled, at most it is just a lesson to teach the other party a lesson, and hit their morale, and I will definitely not catch up." General Diao can rest assured. ”

Diao Yue'e saw that what Ma Chao said made sense, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Since this is the case, then let Yue'e sweep the battle for the general, but we can say it in advance, the general needs to stop the general's advice, and when it is time to retreat, don't listen." ”

"Okay, General Diao rest assured, Chao will definitely obey the orders of the life-saving father." Ma Chao smiled and joked at Diao Yue'e.
