Chapter 137: Cautious Ma Chao

Zhao Yun hurriedly saluted and said, "Brother, don't be embarrassed, Yun can reflect on himself." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

Li Wang nodded with satisfaction and said, "You go, when I was in Wei County before, Wang Haomin was talking about their boss in my ear every day, and they seem to be looking forward to it recently." ”

Zhao Yun saluted happily and hurried down.

Li Wang lay back, leaned lazily on the seat, and said, "I knew you still had something, and you don't know what you've been thinking all day." ”

Jia Xu laughed, there were only the two of them left, and naturally took the teapot on King Li's table to fill it for himself, and only after drinking a full cup did he say: "I'm not here for the war, but for the lord's family affairs?" ”

"Family matters?" Li Wang's interest was aroused, and he said curiously: "Let's hear it, could it be that Mi'er and the teacher have something to lose?" ”

"It's not at all." Jia Xu waved his hand and said: "Uncle Zhang has discussed with me before, and now Zhen Mi is pregnant with the heir of the lord, but the other wives and concubines have not moved, I am afraid that there will be some resentment. ”

"Resentment?" King Li groaned, he still thought it was too simple before, thinking that the palace fighting scenes in those stories in his previous life would not appear in his life, but with the increase of wives and concubines, each personality is different, and it is inevitable that it will become a faction, and this problem that cannot be solved for thousands of years, how can he have the ability to deal with it, rubbing his brows and not knowing how to reply to Jia Xu.

Jia Xu waited patiently, after all, King Li had already done a good job, and he had set the position of Zhen Mi's wife early, at least no one dared to mess around in the short term.

Li Wang stretched out his finger and knocked on the table, and said, "I don't know what Wenhe and Uncle Wen found?" ”

Jia Xu replied, "Uncle had talked to me before, and he was practicing on his feet... Mrs. Bu is suspected of being favored, and she is originally from a scholar family, so she will inevitably work tricks, but I don't agree. ”

"Oh?" King Li cheered up and said, "I don't know what Wenhe means." ”

Jia Xu continued: "Even if Mrs. Bu is a little favored, but after all, her scheming is not serious, but she looks at the other person......"

"The other one? You mean..."King Li didn't say this person's name after all, rubbed his aching eyebrows, and said: "Forget it, now that the Jizhou War is imminent, I am not in the mood to think about these trivial matters, and I will return to the party in the future, and then I will have a good livelihood with Uncle Zhang." ”

Jia Xu also knew that this matter was not as simple as he imagined, and the reason why he reminded King Li now was to let him prepare early, and according to King Li's wisdom, he must understand the disadvantages of the union of the ladies of the inner court and the soldiers of the outer court.

……

In mid-April, the water was not very turbulent, Ma Chao swam across the river, relying on the cover of the trees to rest for a while, and did not light torches, for fear of alarming the enemy army, but the enemy fire swayed in the sky, obviously showing Ma Chao the way.

Swimming across the river, naturally there were no war horses to ride, everything relied on foot, and the eight hundred soldiers slowed down and lowered their voices to move forward, but they did not startle the flocks of birds.

"Stop." With a wave of his hand, Ma Chao took the lead in stopping, frowned and asked, "Where is this?" ”

A soldier who was familiar with the terrain next to him calculated the footsteps, and then looked at the terrain and said, "This should be the range of Hulu Creek." ”

Ma Chao was puzzled: "Huluxi? Why haven't I heard of it? ”

The soldier explained: "This gourd stream is separated from a tributary of the Yellow River, because of the topography, there are two lakes strung together at the end of the river, hence the name, and the widest part of this stream is more than two zhang, the relatively narrow one is about one zhang, and its shallowest point can not exceed the top of an adult's head, and it is almost twenty miles away from Yangping." ”

Ma Chao nodded, he was born and raised in Liangzhou, in addition to the last time he went to Handan to kidnap Tian Feng, this is the second contact: "Then you look at the direction, right?" ”

The soldier carefully looked at the direction of the stream, and then looked at the fire in the distance, and then said firmly: "Although there is some deviation, it is possible that the enemy army is also stationed outside the city, and there must be Yangping." ”

"En", after getting the answer he wanted, Ma Chao led the army and continued to hurry, even he didn't notice that a group of about 500 people fell a mile behind him.

Silent all the way, Ma Chao led eight hundred soldiers to a wood, on the right is a low hillside, this terrain is extremely familiar, and King Li used the terrain in the past martial arts, the defender camp used to use the terrain, the only extra is the gourd creek that is diagonally inserted.

Ma Chao frowned, motioned for the whole army to stop, and remembered what Chen Zhi said: "This kind of terrain is the easiest to launch a cavalry charge, and the foot soldiers are also easy to ambush in the woods. ”

If it weren't for King Li to arouse Ma Chao's competitiveness, he would definitely not pay attention to it at this moment, and he could rely on his own skills to swagger through the market, and his nerves were tense at this time, and he couldn't help but be cautious.

"Bo Zhan, you lead four hundred soldiers first, and I will lead the remaining soldiers to your palace, go out of this path, and then send the soldiers back to restore your life."

It was rare for Ma Chao to be so cautious, and Ma Dai also remembered the situation of the previous martial arts competition and took the order to leave.

Ma Chao stared at the tiger and looked around, afraid that an enemy army would attack.

About a quarter of an hour (a quarter and fifteen minutes) passed, and one of the soldiers came back to his life, saying that he had successfully arrived.

Ma Chao breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the enemy army is not in ambush, but it's right to think about it, he is here to sneak attack, only a few people know about this matter, how can the enemy know.

While breathing a sigh of relief, Ma Chao beckoned the soldiers behind him and walked forward with his footsteps lowered.

In the darkness, a thousand pairs of eyes were watching the horse get closer, and the hooves of the war horses behind him were wrapped in cloth, and the horse's mouth was also covered with iron rings, and he couldn't make a sound.

"Uncle Wang, as you said, the state army really sent people to visit the camp."

Wang Yin was in a good mood and calculated that it would not be calm tonight, so he discussed with Fang La and ambushed the enemy on this low hillside, but he didn't expect it to be a real gain.

He lowered his voice and said: "Fang Jie, don't care about the enemy army in advance for a while, dare to explore the camp, the enemy's main general must be a strong general, and he will definitely be the queen of the palace, there is naturally him in the rear army, and you have to clean it up, when the front army hears the movement, it will definitely come back to help, and when the time comes, it will be taken together, which just breaks King Li's evil spirit." ”

The feeling of uneasiness permeated his heart, Ma Chao looked left and right irritably, and suddenly saw something, his face changed, and he shouted: "The whole army retreats quickly, there is an ambush." ”

It turned out that the bright moon happened to stop on the low hillside, and a round head was blocking a corner of the crescent moon, which was seen by Ma Chao, and quickly ordered the whole army to retreat, and by the way, it was ignited to remind Ma Dai.
