The liger roared lowly, its claws flickering with cold light dug out several large holes in the ground, a pair of ferocious eyes stared closely at the battlefield in front of it, its huge nose twitched from time to time, smelling the heavy smell of blood, and a trace of longing flashed on the beast's face.

Liu Yuan looked at the battlefield in front of him indifferently, stretched out his hand and patted the neck of the liger beast, the liger beast stiffened, and suddenly stood still.

Two thousand people rushed into the chaotic Li Dao army with Dian Wei, and suddenly fell into the oil pot like a little flame, and in an instant, the battlefield was boiling! The guards crushed through with boundless murderous aura, plowing out bloody ravines and shattering the entire battlefield.

Li Dao was dead, and the army was uncommanded, fighting on its own, and it was in chaos.

It was also the time when the Dian Wei Heavenly Soldiers rushed into battle, frequently performing miraculous skills, no one could stop them, the morale of tens of thousands of troops was completely lost, and the morale of the army was scattered!

I don't know who it is, but I said:

"General Li Dao is dead!"

In an instant, the fairly compact battlefield suddenly scattered like fireworks!

The dense soldiers fled in all directions, and some passed in front of Liu Yuan, and in a panic, they wanted to make a move on Liu Yuan, but they were all torn to pieces by the two claws of the lion and tiger beast!

Liu Yuan stood in a pool of blood and watched like this, and he didn't stop it, and he couldn't stop it.

He has 2,000 men in his hands, how can he capture and hold tens of thousands?

Run, run!

Liu Yuan sighed in his heart and secretly scolded Li Wei for not knowing how to lift. not only lost his surname, but also caused Liu Yuan to lose tens of thousands of troops, damn it!

Ma Xiu Ma Tie led the army to intercept and capture hundreds of people all the way with Jia Xu, and when he arrived at the battlefield, he looked at the fragmented battlefield in amazement, looking at a black shadow like a whirlwind biting a large number of enemy troops chasing and killing, and the shock in his heart was indescribable.

"Is that the only one?"

Matthew muttered uncertainly. It's unbelievable that with just such a few people, tens of thousands of troops were defeated in one fell swoop!

"It's the Lord's Guard!" Jia Xu's face looked very shiny under the light of the torch: "Two, come with me to see the lord!" ”

After Jia Xu finished speaking, he pulled the reins of his horse, led the dark three, and rushed towards a figure standing alone in the firelight. Ma Xiu and Ma Tie glanced at each other, waved their hands to stop the army of more than 10,000 people who were completely shocked, and beat their horses to follow.

Liu Yuan raised his head, and through the light of the fire, he recognized Jia Xu and the others who were rushing here at a glance, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl.

"Lord!"

Jia Xu turned over and dismounted, bowed and bowed. The dark three prostrate on the ground, calling himself the master.

Ma Xiu and Ma Tie hit the horses and walked into the range of Liu Yuan's ten zhang, and they felt a majestic coercion, as if there was a big mountain floating above their heads, and the incomparable depression made the two of them panic.

Even the war horse under the crotch, no matter how much he shouted, didn't dare to take a step forward!

The two had no choice but to turn over and dismount, walk over, and bow with their fists folded:

"Ma Xiu (Ma Tie) meets the King of Yuyang!"

Liu Yuan smiled slightly, as if the snow-capped mountains were melting, all the coercion dissipated, and then there seemed to be a spring breeze blowing, which made people admire.

"Hehe, flat!"

A deep voice sounded, and several people stood flat as if they couldn't help themselves.

"Wenhe, this Xiliang matter, thanks to your dedication, this king should be rewarded!" In front of the Ma family, Liu Yuan was naturally blunt in his words. The word 'planning' is completely ignored.

Liu Yuan didn't say what the reward was, but Jia Xu knew that Liu Yuan's reward would be less? couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said with a smile: "The lord is overpowering the world, and his reputation is spread far and wide in the Western Regions, so he can do it so smoothly." ”

Liu Yuan shook his head and smiled, and asked Jia Xu to get on the horse and stand beside him, and then turned his gaze to the two brothers of the Ma family.

"You're Matthew?" Liu Yuan looked at the young man with a rather calm face, nodded secretly, and then looked at the young man with a somewhat detached expression and smiled: "Then you are Ma Tieluo?" ”

"Exactly." The two of them clasped their fists, as if they didn't hear the word 'planning', and there was joy on their faces. It was as if a glory rose from the heart. A feeling that Liu Yuan could know that their names were glory!

"Not bad!" Liu Yuan smiled indifferently and praised.

The two were even more overjoyed when they heard this.

Liu Yuan bowed slightly, pointed at Siye and said, "Have you seen those routs?" The two of you immediately wave your army, take as many prisoners as you can, and whoever catches more will be rewarded by this king! ”

The two looked at each other, but hesitated.

From the bottom of their hearts, it was a great honor for the two of them to serve their idols. But in terms of rationality, it can't. Because this army is the army of the Ma family, not Liu Yuan's.

Seeing this, Liu Yuan couldn't help but ask Jia Xu with a sideways face: "Didn't Wen He say it?" ”

"Never." Jia Xu shook his head.

Liu Yuan knew that he might have some scruples at that time, nodded his head, didn't think he was angry, turned his face to the two and smiled: "Ma Shoucheng has been attached to this king, and you two are generals under this king's account, and you still don't accept orders!?" ”

The two thought to themselves, as Liu Yuan, they naturally wouldn't lie, where did they dare to hesitate, so they suddenly agreed, hugged their fists and received the order, slowly retreated ten steps, turned around and got on their horses and ran back to the army formation, and then each led a piece to pursue Li Dao's rout.

Liu Yuan saw the two of them walking away, and then looked at Dian Wei, who was shouting in the battlefield at night, shook his head slightly, smiled helplessly, and said to Jia Xu: "Lao Dian followed this king, but he was wronged. ”

Jia Xu was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at Dian Wei, who was killing energetically and shouting wildly, and really agreed with it in his heart, but he said: "It is a great honor for the commander of the Dian and the lord to be close to him, and a few of us can't get it if we want to." However, the commander is indeed a fierce warrior on the battlefield, and his bravery is unmatched! ”

Liu Yuan pointed at Jia Xu and laughed: "You, you!" ”

"Hey, hey." Jia Xu smiled, unimpressed.

"By the way, Wenhe, this king has been thinking about how to settle the Ma family all the way." Liu Yuan finished laughing, stared at Jia Xu and asked, "You give an opinion?" ”

Jia Xu was moved in his heart. This kind of thing is the master's own decision, and he basically does not ask for the opinions of his subordinates. But Liu Yuan is like this, but it shows that he values Jia Xu very much. But who is Jia Xu? We know the mysteries.

immediately said: "The lord can deal with it as he wants, hehe, it's inconvenient to say more." ”

Liu Yuan shook his head helplessly. In his heart, he understood what Jia Xu meant.

He is a person who is good at self-preservation, and he will not participate in the slightest involvement.

Just like this time, if Jia Xu really came up with a suggestion, he would first have to pass Liu Yuan's level. The suggestion is good, but not to mention, if this suggestion doesn't step on Liu Yuan's heart, it won't be good. With Jia Xu's wisdom, it's still okay to make a good suggestion, so this problem doesn't exist. Then move on.

Liu Yuan adopted Jia Xu's suggestion and treated the Ma family as it was.

If the Ma family is prosperous in the future, it will naturally be thanks to Jia Xu. But just like this conservation of energy, if one person soars, there will inevitably be another person who declines, that is to say, Jia Xu will hate that other person.

This is still a long-term consequence.

Looking at it from a recent point of view, no matter where Jia Xu suggested that Liu Yuan place the Ma family in, or merge with the state or Jizhou, it would be to decentralize!

Will Huang Chang be happy?

Tian Feng didn't say it, but will Koji be happy?

Liu Yuan sighed in his heart, but he was a little happy.

It is because Jia Xu is like this, who does not participate in the rights and wrongs of human relations, and all the people centered on Liu Yuan, so that Liu Yuan can rest assured that he will hand over the dark department to him to manage. If it's a different one, it really won't be!

The two of them chatted for a long time, and before they knew it, Dian Wei came back wearing a blood armor, and Ma Xiu and Ma Tie also came back with 8,000 people.

Liu Yuan looked at the sky, it was already three o'clock in the ugly hour, so he said: "Lao Dian, tell me to go down, camp on the spot, have a full meal, rest for two hours, and start at the hour!" ”

Then Liu Yuan turned his face and said: "Ma Xiu and Ma Tie, the two of you have settled the prisoners, let the Huotou army bury the pot and cook, and the army will eat at the end of the ugly time!" ”

"Whoa!"

The three of them were ordered to go down.

Setting up camp, settling prisoners, and burying pots to cook are all very simple things. Because in front of him is Li Daojun's camp, in which tents, grain and grass are ready-made

Guiyi City.

Ma Chao placed the army properly, asked the deputy general to take precautions, and then led more than ten horsemen and guards into Guiyi City.

Ma Teng sat in the main seat, and Ma Chao and Ma Dai sat opposite each other.

Looking at Ma Chao, who is becoming more and more mature, Ma Teng is very relieved. Although Ma Chao was brave and good at fighting in the past, he believed that after this war, Ma Chao would advance to a new level in every aspect!

"Father." Ma Chao raised his handsome face and said, "When the child waved his army through Longxi, he met Jia Xu. Jia Xu told the child that his father had returned to the king of Yuyang. Father, is this true? ”

Ma Teng slowly bowed his head and said, "But it's the truth." ”

Ma Chao was not surprised when he heard this, but he had expected it in his heart, and now he just confirmed it.

"Didn't my father think about being self-reliant?"

Ma Chao asked in a blink of an eye.

"Self-reliance?" Ma Teng laughed and said a little self-deprecatingly: "How can you talk about self-reliance? The land of Xiliang, located in the middle of nowhere, has a small population, and is racially disturbed and internally unstable, which is one of them. Xiliang is surrounded by enemies, there are Zhuhu of the Western Regions in the west, there are heroes of the Central Plains in the east, there are hostile Qiang people in the south, and there is the army of the king of Yuyang in the north. Third, Xiliang is the main road of the Central Plains to communicate with the Western Regions, and it is the node of the Silk Road. ”

"Do you know why Dong Zhuo didn't stand on his own feet in Xiliang, but wanted to be a thief of the country? Because Xiliang doesn't have that condition! It's a bit biased, but it's not wrong. ”

When Ma Chao heard this, he nodded slowly.

"Then why do you have to vote for the King of Yuyang instead of Yuan Shao, the overlord of the Central Plains?" At this time, Ma Dai spoke: "If you vote for Yuan Shao, sealing the king of Xiliang is a nail in the coffin, and it is a matter of nine out of ten." But the king of Yuyang did not make half a promise, which made people feel uneasy! ”

"What's the use of that?" Ma Teng's eyes widened, and he drank: "King Xiliang? It's useless even for Xiliang Emperor! Without strength, no matter how fanciful you talk about it, it's all illusory! Don't look at that Yuan Shao holding the Son of Heaven hostage, hey, as long as the King of Yuyang goes south, he will be the first to be killed! ”

"Our eyes have to see real things, not titles or whatever, titles and whatever, it's completely useless! You can't eat it as a meal, you can't be an army of 100,000, and you can't let Xiliang become a place like the Central Plains! ”

"King Yuyang doesn't make promises, but gives me peace of mind."

Ma Teng said, a smile on his face.

Ma Chao and Ma Dai looked at each other.

"Fool!" Ma Teng scolded with a smile and said, "You think, King Yuyang has never seen me Ma Teng, even some reputations are hearsay!" It is rumored that the king of Yuyang is very talented, and he is not less filial piety, so he will naturally not casually place a position without knowing the specific situation of a person at all! If Jia Xuzhen opened his mouth and promised a position, I would not be at ease, because it did not meet the surname of King Yuyang! ”

"It is precisely because Jia Xu did not give a promise that I feel at ease." Ma Teng smiled: "Do you know, Jia Xu said that the King of Yuyang wants to come over in person!" It can be seen that my Ma family is really valued by the King of Yuyang! ”

When Ma Chao and Ma Dai heard this, they looked at each other and smiled, and their mood was much more relaxed in an instant.
