Zhang Xiu gave an order: "Arrest these people who are bewitching the crowd for me." His soldiers swarmed up and pounced on several suspicious people.

Those few people took out their swords and guns, trying to resist stubbornly, and one of them was obviously good at martial arts, and the green steel sword danced vigorously, injuring several soldiers.

Zhang Xiu shouted, raised his gun to join the battle group, and within a few rounds, he picked up the opponent's green steel sword, took advantage of the situation to pounce on the left and right, and pressed the man to the ground.

"These people are Xiliang Ma Chao's spies, sneaking into our Chengdu to cause sabotage", Zhang Xiu shouted.

As soon as these words came out, the congregation that had been in turmoil just now regained their calm.

Afterwards, Liu Xun personally interrogated a few troublemakers, couldn't bear the torture, and several of them were all recruited.

It turned out that they were all gangsters in several gangs, who had been bribed with money and came to make trouble.

As for who the main envoy behind it is, these people can't say why.

However, all kinds of signs show that it is obviously related to the Huang family.

"Hehe, Huang family, just let you jump for a few more days, as my Heavenly Master Sect grows stronger and stronger, it's not so easy for you to make trouble again."

With an order, all the mischievous people were beheaded, accused of being a spy of Xiliang Ma Chao, saying that Ma Chao sent him to Chengdu to spy on the military situation.

"Ma Chao has been training troops for some time now, and it seems that he has the intention of attacking Yizhou. Moreover, Ma Chao's blatant support for Liu Bei's abolition of the emperor has exceeded my bottom line, and it's time to march into Xiliang", Liu Xun secretly thought to himself.

After making up his mind, Xiliang's information continued to be reported to Chengdu Fuzhong.

"What, Han Sui did not die after the defeat, but fled into the Qiang people, and now he is trying to make a comeback."

"Contact Han Sui immediately and join forces to flank Ma Chao", Liu Xun issued an order.

"Bring me Jia Xu's military division, and I will discuss the military situation."

It didn't take long for Jia Xu to arrive.

"The lord is not busy talking about anything first, let Jia Xu guess first, how about it?"

"What does Brother Wen He think I'm looking for you for?"

"If the prediction is not bad, the lord came to me, most likely for Xiliang Ma Chao, right?"

"How so?"

"Now Huainan Yuan Shu has canceled the title of emperor, temporarily attached to the lord, the situation in Jingzhou is complicated, it is difficult to plot in an emergency, Xiliang Ma Chao has always been ambitious, if he does not get rid of Ma Chao, the lord will not be able to sleep and eat."

"Those who know me, Brother Wen and also."

"At present, Han Sui has fled into the territory of the Qiang people, and with the support of the Qiang people, if we want to regain the lost territory, we just want to enter Xiliang, cooperate with Han Sui, and get rid of Ma Chao's henchman."

"The lord's idea is very reasonable, Ma Chao respects the abolished emperor, if we attack, we will definitely ask Liu Bei for help, and the lord can order Huainan Yuan Shu to send troops to attack Liu Bei as a containment."

"Good plan, now that Yuan Yingying is in my hands, I don't have to worry about Yuan Shu being disobedient", Liu Xunxi said.

"In Luoyang, with Pang Tong and Zhao Yun staying behind, it is not a problem, as long as Xiliang is defeated, the strength of the lord will be greatly enhanced, and the day of sweeping the princes is not far away."

Liu Xun immediately ordered, "Someone come, go to Huainan and order Yuan Shu to attack Liu Bei." ”

Huainan Yuan Shu received Liu Xun's order and showed the order to the generals to solicit opinions.

Ji Ning said: "Liu Bei's soldiers are strong and strong, don't underestimate the enemy, don't fall for Liu Xun's tricks, act as a pawn for him." ”

Yuan Shu said: "I also know that Liu Bei is not easy to deal with, if we don't send troops, Liu Xun will find an excuse, and he will come to fight us when he turns around." ”

Tong Yuan said: "Lord, let's pretend to send troops, and secretly agree with Liu Bei not to invade each other." not only coped with Liu Xun, but also preserved his strength. ”

Yuan Shu said: "This strategy is very good, according to Mr. 's words." ”

Liu Xun chose a good day to send troops, and led the army out of Tongguan and attacked Ma Chao.

When the news reached Xiliang, Ma Chao said angrily: "Liu Xun'er, I was about to send troops to fight him, but he came to provoke me first, and sent an order to go down, and the troops went out of Tongguan to meet Liu Xun." ”

Ma Dai said: "Big brother is angry, I have a plan, so that Liu Xun can't take care of each other." ”

"Brother, what's the idea?"

"Since we respect Liu Wei as the emperor, now that Xiliang has something to do, ask Liu Bei for help, how can he sit idly by?"

"As long as Liu Bei sends troops to attack Liu Xun's back road, our two families will join forces, so why worry about not defeating Liu Xun's army."

"That's a good plan, you can give it a try."

"In addition, Yuan Shao of Qingzhou was captured by Liu Xun in Jizhou, why didn't the lord send a person who could speak the Tao to see Yuan Shao and let him raise troops to attack Jizhou. As a result, Liu Xunzong has three heads and six arms, and it is difficult to take care of both the end and the end. ”

"Who wants to go to Qingzhou to see Yuan Shao?" Ma Chao asked.

A person flashed out of the stairs and responded: "My subordinates are willing to go." ”

When Ma Chao looked at it, it was his subordinate Yang Qiu, this person could speak well, and he was relieved to go with him.

After Zhuge Liang took over the Huang family, he used the intelligence network of the Huang family to fly pigeons and pass on books, and he was well informed.

Liu Xun asked Yuan Shu to send troops to attack Liu Bei, and the news that he attacked Ma Chao on his own was grasped by Zhuge Liang for the first time.

He immediately came to see Liu Bei, "Lord, now, Liu Xun sent troops to attack Ma Chao, afraid that we would attack his back road, and ordered Huainan Yuan Shu to attack us, but we have to prepare early." ”

Liu Bei said: "What is the high opinion of the military advisor? ”

Since he was castrated, Liu Bei was disheartened, and only practiced martial arts all day long, waiting for opportunities to take revenge, and relied on Zhuge Liang for everything militarily.

"Don't worry, the lord has a plan, let's make an appointment with Yuan Shu, pretend to fight, and let Yuan Shu retreat to Huainan. Then we took it by surprise and attacked Nanyang and Xiangyang, which can be the outstanding effect of the surprise soldiers. ”

"The military advisor Gao Jian, I have recently achieved the beginning of Xuangong, and I just want to try my edge on the battlefield, so I will take Liu Xun to open the knife", Liu Bei said hatefully.

After Zhuge Liang got Liu Bei's approval, he went to arrange it.

Qingzhou Yuan Shao ushered in Ma Chao's envoy Yang Qiu in the mansion, and after some greetings, Yang Qiu went straight to the point, "Yuan Gong was occupied by Liu Xunque's nest, and now the opportunity has come, and it is time for Yuan Gong to take revenge." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Ma Mengqi is now raising troops to go out of Tongguan to avenge Yuan Gong, and the public can take advantage of the situation to take Jizhou, and he will be ashamed."

"I'm afraid Liu Xun is going to beat Ma Chao, Ma Chao wants me to help him, right?" Yuan Shao is also a scheming person, and he sniffed out Yang Qiu's extraneous voice.

"Lord, I think there is some truth in Yang Qiu's words, even if Ma Chao wants to use us, if we seize the opportunity, we may not be able to take the opportunity to recapture the lost Jizhou", Guo Tujin said.

"The child also thinks that it is a good choice to take the opportunity to send troops to Jizhou", said the youngest son Yuan Shang.

"In this case, let's send troops to Jizhou and take Liu Xun by surprise", Yuan Shao finally made up his mind.

Yuan Shao immediately ordered his troops and horses and killed Benjizhou.

At this time, Liu Xun's soldiers and horses had arrived at Tongguan, and before they had time to get out of Tongguan, Ma Chao's army came to Tongguan to camp first, and there was a tendency to capture Tongguan.

Liu Xun saw the momentum of the Xiliang soldiers on the city tower, and he couldn't help but be secretly frightened.

At this time, it was dusk, and a white horse and silver spear, silver helmet and silver armor were shouting for battle under the city.

The general's eyes looked familiar, and Liu Xun suddenly remembered that the person who came to Luoyang with the caravan from the Western Regions that day was not this person?

It's just that this person put on makeup at that time, and now he appears in his true form.

The white horse general raised his gun and shouted: "Liu Xun, Xiliang Ma Dai is here, and he will not be killed yet." ”

Liu Xun was furious: "Nobody, dare to call out."

Immediately switched out of the city and led the army to set up a position.

Ma Dai shouted: "The coming general is Liu Xun, and he will not let the horse come over and die." ”

Liu Xun smiled contemptuously and said, "You are not my opponent, so let's call Ma Chao." ”

When did Ma Dai suffer this kind of humiliation, and he shot his horse and came to get Liu Xun.

Liu Xun watched carefully, Ma Dai's marksmanship was the Five Elements and Six Elements Gun handed down by Ma Yuan, and he smiled slightly at the moment, and he already had an idea in his heart.

Liu Xun unfolded the Five Elements and Six Combinations marksmanship and fought with Ma Dai.

This time, the moves of the two sides are similar, and it is like a competition between disciples and brothers.

It's just that Ma Dai's five-element six-combination gun has been passed down for several generations, and some of the moves have been lost.

"Why is your martial arts progressing so fast, when did you actually learn my Ma family's Five Elements and Six Combination Spears?" Ma Dai became more and more frightened the more he fought, he once fought Liu Xun in Luoyang.

Although it was only a game, the master's moves can be glimpsed from the subtleties.

At that time, although Liu Xun's martial arts were slightly higher than Ma Dai's, they were not much higher.

In today's battle, Ma Dai is completely unable to show his hands and feet, and the attainment of the five elements and six guns shown by the other party is even higher than him, how can you tell him not to be surprised?

After fighting a few more moves, Ma Dai knew that it was not good, and knew that if he continued to fight like this, he would definitely lose very badly, so he immediately returned to the horse and left.

Liu Xun didn't chase after him, but shouted: "I said it a long time ago, you are not my opponent, let's go back and ask Ma Chao to come in person."

When Ma Dai heard this, he was ashamed and turned his horse back to the battle.

Ma Chao saw this scene early before the battle, and was preparing to fight in person, meeting Liu Xun for a while.

Pang De flashed out of the formation and shouted: "The lord is temporarily in the formation, and the last general will go to meet this Liu Xun." ”

"It's okay, Ling Ming is careful. This Liu Xun doesn't seem to be weak in martial arts, so he must not be careless. ”

"The last general will obey the orders of the lord," Pound said disapprovingly.

Pang De immediately danced a thick-backed machete, beat the horse out of battle, and went straight to Liu Xun.

"Who is coming, Liu Xun will not pick unknown people under the gun", Liu Xun asked.

"In Xia Xiliang Pound, I came to learn the tricks", Pound shouted, rode forward, and cut off the head of the big knife.

"It turned out to be Pang Lingming, who has admired his name for a long time, like thunder", Liu Xun politely said and raised his gun to greet him.

Pound shook his spirits and swung the knife hard, and the knife in his hand swayed with pieces of afterimage, and each knife was booming, like thunder.

In addition, Pang De's tiger roared again and again, like a dragon roaring and a lion roaring, his eyes widened angrily, and the cold light burst out, which increased his intimidating spirit, and it was not easy to resist.

"Your Excellency's Running Thunder Knife Technique really lives up to its reputation, and it is much stronger than that Ma Dai's Five Elements and Six Combination Spears," Liu Xun praised.

Pound listened to it and was very useful.

As everyone knows, in a simple sentence, Liu Xun has provoked the relationship between Xiliang Ma Chao and Pang De.

Before the battle was over, Liu Xun pretended to be invincible, and turned his horse back.

Ma Chao's army chased after him, Zhang Xiu and Zhang He's two armies came out together, and the enemy caught Ma Chao's army and horses, and after a scuffle, Liu Xun collected his army and returned to the city.

Jia Xu said: "Although Xu doesn't understand martial arts, judging from the lord's past performance, he can't beat Pang De today, why did he lose it?" ”
