As soon as he entered the tent, Fan Jinqiang stepped forward and hugged Wang Baoyu tightly, choked up and said, "Brother, you are finally back!" ”

"Big brother, don't worry too much, I can't die." Wang Baoyu comforted.

"Ma Chao is so dangerous there, how can the eldest brother not be worried, I just hate that the eldest brother didn't protect you that day." Fan Jinqiang still regrets it.

"If it weren't for your protection, I would definitely die in the chaos." Wang Baoyu sighed.

"Boss, why don't you even look at me when you only care about talking to Brother Fan?" The flying cloud rat smiled and leaned over his head, with tears in his eyes, but he stubbornly held his eyelids to prevent the tears from flowing.

"Hehe, cry if you want to!" Wang Baoyu couldn't help but punch the flying cloud rat.

"Manly man, blood and sweat......" Feiyun Rat finally couldn't say it anymore, stepped forward and hugged Wang Baoyu, and whined: "Brother, you really scared me!" ”

The three big men hugged each other and cried happily, and Feiyun Wippled his tears and said, "Boss, if you don't come back, Master and I both want to go to Ma Chao's camp to save you!" ”

"Thank you very much, brothers, it's a good thing you didn't take action, otherwise, we would all be in big trouble." Wang Baoyu patted Feiyun Squirrel's shoulder and said.

The three of them sat down, and Wang Baoyu found that Fan Jinqiang still had strips of cloth wrapped around his hands, and when he asked, he knew that he was inferior to Pang De in the battle that day, and he was shocked by Pang De's big knife, but fortunately, there was no big problem.

And the Feiyun Squirrel was even more miserable, his body was covered with scars, all of which were picked by Xiliang soldiers, but fortunately, he escaped back without danger.

"Hehe, fortunately, there are no scars on my face." Feiyun Rat retracted his sleeves, not wanting Wang Baoyu to look at it again.

Wang Baoyu looked at the two good brothers who followed him from birth to death, his heart fluctuated, and he sighed and said: "The friendship between the two brothers, I, Wang Baoyu, remember it in my heart and never forget it." In the future, let's not fight with them lightly, and it is true to preserve our strength. ”

"Hmph, arrest my brother, I will definitely smash Ma Chao's skull." Fan Jinqiang said angrily.

"Yes, this time it's not fun, next time I will definitely capture Ma Chao!" The flying cloud rat clenched his fist and agreed.

Haha, Wang Baoyu and Fan Jinqiang couldn't help laughing, this cowhide is about to blow through the sky. With the body of a flying cloud mouse, he is not Ma Chao's opponent after practicing for a lifetime.

Feiyun Rat also knew that his words were too big, so he scratched his head and changed his words: "It's really not good, so I'll steal Ma Chao's silver gun first." ”

"Hehe, this sentence is still a little bit, but Ma Chao's silver gun is definitely not just that one, don't worry about it. By the way, two brothers, let's also play some vulgar, these two ingots of gold, one for each person. Wang Baoyu smiled and took out the gold given by Cao Cao from his arms.

Fan Jinqiang and Feiyun Mouse repeatedly refused, so they accepted it, Fan Jinqiang didn't feel anything, he knew Wang Baoyu's temperament and temperament, and he would never treat his brother badly. And Feiyun Rat got such a big ingot of collector's edition gold, and he couldn't close his mouth with joy, and he really felt that he was with the right person.

After a solid night's sleep, the next morning, Cao Cao led everyone to inspect the camp. In the first battle of Xiaolin, the losses of Cao's army were not large, thousands of soldiers and horses were lost, Cao Cao was in danger, and the rest of the generals were also safe and sound, but the mental pressure of losing the war could not be ignored.

Cao Cao set up a total of three camps on the south bank of the Wei River. Xu Huang and Cao Hong in the left village, Zhang He and Xu Chu in the right village, Cao Cao himself led a team of men and horses in the center, and the front of the camp was set up with a fence in the woods to prevent Ma Chao's sneak attack.

In order to encourage the morale of the soldiers, Cao Cao widely disseminated the news of Wang Baoyu's return, but the specific content was an improved version, which became Wang Baoyu's single-handed battle against Ma Chao, all the way out of Ma Chao's camp, and returned along the way.

"Lao Cao, this is too mysterious, who believes it!" Wang Baoyu heard the discussion of the soldiers, and also saw those reverent eyes, and said with a weak heart.

"Hehe, when it's extraordinary, you must use extraordinary measures. The previous battle was lost, and the morale of the present is the first. Cao Cao laughed evilly.

"Then you have to be reliable, if I want to be so powerful, I won't be taken away by Ma Yunlu in the first place."

"It's already a bit restrained, I was going to say that you flew back with wings on your back!"

"Huh? This one is even more! ”

"You are fishing straight in the river, and everyone in the army knows it, so what's wrong with having wings on your back?" Cao Cao disagreed: "I'm just afraid that if I say this, the soldiers will pin their hopes of victory on supernatural powers, so I will say that you kill the enemy to break through the encirclement, so as to inspire the morale of the soldiers." ”

"Okay, so what's next?" Wang Baoyu asked.

"Now that you have returned safely, Lone is not in a hurry to attack Ma Chao, consume his fighting spirit, and wait and see what happens." Cao Cao said proudly, habitually brushing his beard, and grabbed a blank, a little embarrassed.

Wang Baoyu held back a laugh and said, "Even if we don't beat him, he will definitely come to beat us." ”

"I have set up a wooden fence, and it is not easy for Ma Chao to attack."

"Well, won't people light fires?" Wang Baoyu sighed, feeling that the practical significance of this approach was not great.

Cao Cao patted Wang Baoyu on the shoulder and said confidently: "I have thought about it for a long time, but I am afraid that he will not come." He has ordered craftsmen to make more bows and arrows, and when Ma Chao crosses the river, he can intercept and kill them in the river. ”

Wang Baoyu didn't say more, he felt that Ma Chao would not be so stupid. Moreover, Cao Cao's idea was mostly given by Xun You's group, these people are all conservatives, and they have failed again and again, so of course they don't want to attack rashly.

In Wang Baoyu's view, sticking to Tongguan is the best policy, after all, a tall city wall is safer than a wooden fence. But Cao Cao obviously had other intentions in this arrangement, and I don't know if it was because he didn't believe in himself too much and didn't make it clear.

Besides, Ma Chaotan heard that Cao Cao had moved troops to the south bank of the Wei River, fearing that Cao Cao would cross the river into the Guanzhong Plain, so he hurriedly increased part of his troops to the north bank of the Wei River, but still left a lot of troops in Weinan, that is to say, Cao Cao is now in a situation where he is caught between the two directions in the northwest.

Ma Chao approached Han Sui to discuss whether to launch a deadly attack on Cao Cao from both directions. Han Sui's opinion is different from Ma Chao's, he might as well take advantage of the emptiness of Tongguan and take Tongguan first.

Ma Chao was a little worried, Cao Cao would not understand the weight of Tongguan, presumably the troops would not be too small, and Cao Cao's camp was very close to Tongguan, once the army was raised, Cao Cao would inevitably return to the army to rescue.

Han Sui came up with a plan to feint Cao Cao from the north bank, and secretly sent troops here, crossed the mountains and mountains, and went straight to Tongguan.

The successful ambush of Cao Cao in the grove was Han Sui's idea. Ma Chao believed Han Sui's words and secretly deployed, and another big war was about to begin.
