Chapter 66: The Horse Exceeds the Soldiers

Liu Zhang was still losing his temper, throwing the bamboo slips, brushes, inkstones, and everything that could be dropped on the table to the ground, and scolded while falling: "Waste, all of them are a bunch of waste." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

"The lord is happy, the lord is happy." Liu Zhang was about to drop the teacup to the ground when he suddenly heard someone shouting outside.

Liu Zhang heard it clearly, and immediately became overjoyed, and shouted: "Quickly pass it in." ā€

Just now, the little official trotted in again, and said excitedly: "Prime Minister Cao Cheng has a messenger who came to pay a visit, wanting to help the lord survive this catastrophe." ā€

Liu Zhang was overjoyed and quickly said, "Quickly send the angel in." ā€

......

After Yang Xiu saw Liu Zhang, he arched his hand and said, "Xiu visits Yizhou Mu." ā€

Liu Zhang hurriedly helped Yang Xiu up and said politely to Yang Xiu: "I heard that Prime Minister Cao Cheng wants to help me deal with Liu Bei." ā€

Yang Xiu shook his head and then nodded again.

Liu Zhang didn't understand what he meant, and he was anxious, "What does the angel mean by this, why do you shake your head and nod your head." ā€

"The country of abundance is too far away from the Central Plains, and there is Hanzhong in the middle, and the prime minister wants to help, but he is powerless." Yang Xiu shook his head and sighed as he spoke.

Liu Zhang couldn't sit still immediately when he heard Yang Xiu say this, and he couldn't help him for a long time, so what are you doing here, are you teasing me? Liu Zhang's face immediately fell, and he said to Yang Xiu: "Is this what the angel came to say this?" The tone was much colder than before.

Yang Xiu didn't mind, and continued: "Of course not, although the prime minister can't send troops to help, the prime minister has found someone for you who can send troops to help." ā€

"Who is it?" Liu Zhang hurriedly asked, his eyes staring at Yang Xiu so directly.

"Hanzhong Zhang Lu." Yang Xiu said loudly.

"Heh" Liu Zhang smiled bitterly, "Who should I be, it turned out to be him, doesn't the prime minister know that I have a grudge against it?" Liu Zhang thought that no one expected it to be Zhang Lu, and his heart that had been gas hope was shattered again.

Yang Xiu smiled slightly, and said to Liu Zhang: "Lord Zhou Mu doesn't need to worry too much, the Prime Minister has already persuaded Zhang Lu to send troops, and the next thing is to see the performance of Lord Zhou Mu." ā€

Liu Zhang was so overjoyed that he almost pulled Yang Xiu's collar, but when he thought that this was too reckless, he said calmly: "This is true." But this trembling voice showed that Liu Zhang's heart was not so stable.

"Absolutely."

"Haha, okay, since that's the case, I'll immediately send someone to beg Zhang Lu to send troops."

...

Ma Chao is now feeling very unhappy and irritable. Because Ma Chao received an order to attack Liu Bei, in fact, attacking Liu Bei was nothing, the key was to send troops to attack Liu Bei, and there was Cao Cao's shadow behind the matter, which made Ma Chao a little unhappy. Originally, Ma Chao thought that Zhang Lu and Cao Cao had a feud, Cao Cao couldn't ask Zhang Lu anyway, even if he asked Zhang Lu, he wouldn't agree, just when Yang Xiu first came, Ma Chao also laughed at Cao Cao's delusion. But the result was greatly unexpected by Ma Chao's expectations, not only Zhang Lu was very polite to Yang Xiu, but also promised Cao Cao to send troops to relieve Liu Zhang's siege, which made Ma Chao very unhappy, Ma Chao had a grudge against Cao Cao, and this attack on Liu Bei was not to help Cao Cao, so Ma Chao's boss was reluctant to go, but Zhang Lu's order had been given, and Zhang Lu treated Ma Chao well, so Ma Chao had to obey his fate. Since Ma Chao is a newcomer, Zhang Lu is still not very comfortable with him, it is natural to take a prison shot, Ma Chao also understands, anyway, he has no objection, and naturally he does not take it to heart.

When Ma Chao came to Hanzhong, he was already alone, except for a younger brother Ma Dai, the whole family was dead. But Ma Chao can't be single all the time, and soon, Ma Chao was introduced to marry a girl surnamed Dong. Now, Ma Chao is going out to lead the troops to fight again, looking at his wife in front of him, his stomach is already bulging, and he is both happy and sad. Naturally, I am happy that Ma Chao is going to be a father again, and I am sad that I remember that my former wife and children died tragically. Ma Chao secretly vowed that he would take care of their mother and son in the future.

Ma Chao has experienced a hundred battles, and the so-called truth of knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is naturally familiar with it, and it is Liu Bei who is going to attack. Liu Bei is Xiaoqiang, who has been fighting against Cao Cao for many years and is still immortal, and Ma Chao will naturally not take it lightly. After inquiring into the news, it turned out that Liu Bei's army used a strong crossbow called the Anji repeater, which was extremely lethal, and could be fired continuously, and the destructive power passed through people. Ma Chao snorted coldly, it is right to have a strong crossbow and light horse, I think back then, Ju Yi 800 first ascended to fight Gongsun Zhan 3,000 white horse Yicong, and killed Gongsun Zhan without leaving a piece of armor, but it also depends on who commanded it. Besides, are those people in Yizhou all pigs, although the strong crossbow is strong, it can be restrained by heavy cavalry, Liu Beibing is a major general, how much combat effectiveness can be there, Ma Chao is really moved and ashamed by these guys in Yizhou.

Ma Chao sneered, since those guys in Yizhou are not angry, then let me Ma Chao teach you how to behave!
