(Thank you Dameng and Zhao Wuxian for the timely rain in 2014!) The support of UFGW and Daguoguo is also eye-catching! ）

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In fact, to say that this Shi Lian is not an idle person, this person was originally a Peiguo ranger, known for his heroism and bravery, and then voted for Cao Cao, became his guest, and then followed him to raise troops to defeat Dong, and was Cao Cao's confidant. Shi Lian is not well-known, but he is one of the veterans of Cao Cao's group, and the first member of the team to follow Cao Cao.

Similar to Cao Ren, Shi Jian is also a brave general who dares to fight, but as Cao Ren warned him: "If you don't want to die worthless under a terrible cold arrow, it's best to stay a hundred steps away from that person." ”

It was the first time Shi Jian had seen that kind of jealous expression on the face of the fearless Cao Ren, which left a deep impression on him. Therefore, even if he is considered to be weak, he must do a good job of strict protection.

Looking at Shi Jian who was under the protection of the heavy shield, Ma Han squinted and smiled, opened his arms, signaled that there was no hostility, and raised his voice: "Shi Gong Liu, there is no intention to be an enemy of Meng Degong, but Han Yu Gong is a certain elder, and Chen Yuanlong is also an old friend, how can he see that the two Xuzhou celebrities are harmed by Gong Liu." Please keep a line and don't kill them all, I believe that if Meng Degong is here, he will definitely approve of this. ”

Hearing Ma Han say this, Shi Lian breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said: "The dragon has misunderstood, whether it is the lord or I, Shi Lian, we have no intention of harming the second duke, I just want to keep guests as a guest." ”

The Chen father and son over there couldn't help but sneer when they heard this. "Staying"? That's a very elegant way to put it.

Ma Han laughed: "What a coincidence, I also want to stay as a guest, I believe that Han Yugong and Brother Yuanlong are more willing to come to my place as guests." One guest is not bothered by the two masters, Brother Gong Liu, please go back. ”

Shi Jian was furious: "Ma Jinglong, do you think that just a few dozen horsemen can stop my army?" ”

Ma Han's expression did not move, and his eyebrows raised slightly: "Naturally I can't, but I have to save two people." I don't think there's a problem at all, what do you think? ”

Shi Jian grinded his teeth, this guy is too arrogant! It seems that it is really necessary to teach the other party a lesson, and at the same time give Zixiao a bad breath. Shi Jian secretly compared, and with the reinforcements he led, there were nearly 1,000 people in his army. Although there are not many cavalry, only 100 cavalry, it is still possible to entangle the opponent's seventy cavalry for a moment and a half, and then the infantry army will attack the Pengcheng soldiers. It can be taken down in one go. Well, it's worth a try.

Isn't it said that most of the cavalry led by Cao Ren are cavalry, and they are the most elite cavalry of the Cao army, how can he be his general, but there are only 100 cavalry?

How did Cao Ren's cavalry come about? It was formed by him who scattered all his wealth, recruited rangers and high-rollers in the Huai and Si areas, and spent a lot of money to buy a large number of war horses. He used this cavalry to suppress bandits in Huai and Si, galloping across the country for a full year, not only brushing up a lot of experience points. Forging a rare cavalry team in the Central Plains, it has fully established its personal prestige and leadership over this team. Even Cao Cao wanted to command in person, which was not as good as Cao Ren's own command, which was also the reason why Cao Cao appointed Cao Ren as the Sima of other departments and the captain of the line.

Other words. This elite cavalry only obeys the command of Cao Ren himself, even if Shi Jian is also Sima of other departments, even if his name is Shi Lian, he also "calls" this Cao army elite cavalry.

Although there are only 100 horsemen, although I have heard the white wolf ride a hundred people to shoot a straight line. But Shi Jian would never give up his great achievement and retreat because he was afraid of the opponent's dozens of cavalry side attacks. At that moment, the palms waved back, and the four armor soldiers slowly rode to escort Shi Jian backwards, riding alternately to cover each other. The shields are always overlapped, revealing no gaps.

When Ma Han saw it, he didn't know what Shi Jian wanted to do next-this is a disagreement, raising troops against each other!

Now that you're here, don't even think about leaving! Ma Han flipped his hands, his bow and arrows in his palms, and his tongue bloomed with spring thunder: "Shi Gong Liu, the guest left by my Ma Han is not just the second prince of the Chen family!" ”

The bloody bow and iron arrows are as open as the full moon, the rays are locked, and an arrow breaks through the air.

Shi Jian was born as a ranger, and he reacted extremely keenly to sudden attacks, and when he heard the sound of Ma Han's cracked stone piercing gold, he knew that it was not good. Although he didn't believe that Ma Han could break his double leather shield and human shield at all, his instinctive reaction was to avoid it, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, hide first.

Just when Shi Jian overreacted, and the four armor soldiers around him nervously alternately pulled their shields to make a blocking posture, they were surprised to find that the target of this arrow was not them.

That black light flew above their heads, and the fierce wind it brought up made people sweat and hair, and the black light actually pointed directly at the "history" flag in front of the army!

Syllable! The finger-thick iron arrow pierced the thick flagpole at an oblique angle, and the arrow feathered up. Sawdust splashed everywhere, the flagpole burst in the center, and the upper half of the flagpole slowly skewed, clicked and broke under the pressure of its own weight, and toppled over. smashed several soldiers, causing a panic in the entire army.

On the side of the white wolf and the Peng Cheng army, a burst of cheers suddenly broke out like a tsunami.

In ancient battlefield commands, soldiers basically looked at the general flag, which represented the will of an army and the survival of the main general of the army. Therefore, in ancient times, when it came to military exploits, it was the first to capture the flag. At this time, as soon as the flag fell, the soldiers behind did not know what was happening, and there was a big chaos. At this time, if a cavalry suddenly attacked, it was very likely to break through its formation.

But Ma Han didn't start, he just looked at Shi Jian lightly. And Shi Lian, who was more than a hundred steps away, and his four-armored soldiers were shocked. Such a domineering archery technique is simply a weapon to destroy the army and kill the general! In addition to being shocked, he was also frustrated, looking at the thin leather shield in his hand, and then looking at the thick flagpole with a thick mouth, how could he not understand the meaning of this arrow.

Shi Lian's mouth was full of bitterness, and the other party used exactly the same means to deal with Cao Ren last time, but he still fell for it. If the lord and the son knew it, I really don't know how they would look at themselves...... Shi Jian took a deep breath and suddenly made an unexpected move.

But seeing him push away the four talisman soldiers, he returned to the battlefield to pick up the broken flag, danced the flag and galloped in front of the army, shouting loudly, and where he passed, the commotion of the Cao soldiers slowly calmed down.

Shi Lian's actions also made Ma Han secretly admire - this is simply using himself as a target! However, in order to stabilize the morale of the army and avoid being taken advantage of by the enemy and suffering immeasurable losses, Shi Zhuo came up with one of the basic qualities of an excellent general - brave! The courage to put life and death out of bounds.

Shi Jian may not be the best general of Cao Cao's group, but with his loyalty and bravery, he can still get the respect of this heroic lord of the Three Kingdoms, and finally become one of the leaders of Cao Wei's five armies. It is not unreasonable to be able to become one of the backbone figures of Cao Cao's group.

On the hillside, Chen Deng eagerly asked Zhao Yun to take this opportunity to lead his army to attack the flank of Cao's army, and his own Pengcheng army would cooperate with the frontal attack. Zhao Yun categorically refused because he could not act without an order from the city guard.

Chen Deng's repeated persuasions were fruitless, and then he saw that Cao Jun's position was stable under the encouragement of Shi Lian, so he had to sigh and give up helplessly. I knew in my heart that I wanted to take the opportunity to drag the horse into the water and confront Cao Jun, but it was difficult to realize it for a while.

Ma Han quietly waited for Shi Lian to stabilize the military formation, his purpose was only to establish power, not to make enemies of Cao's army now. If this is done, I am afraid that the happiest person is that Xuzhou Haoqiang led by Tao Qian, and he may become the target of Cao Cao's anger - this kind of thankless, foolish thing that others may not be truly grateful for, and will only do it when his head is caught in the door.

Shi Jian finally faced Ma Han again, but this time he no longer brought his guards, and the distance was reduced to thirty paces - this was equivalent to putting his own life in the hands of Ma Han. Shi Jian had to do this, he knew very well that if Ma Han wanted to take his life, he would have killed him a few times. Since the other party has no intention of taking his life, why not simply be single, so that at least he will not lose to others in terms of momentum, and he will not be looked down upon.

Ma Han had already put away his bow and arrows, and smiled and bowed his hand to Shi Lian: "Brother Gong Liu, I will give you an explanation, whether it is the Chen family and his son, or Peng Chengjun, it is just an incidental move." I am leading my army back to Surabaya today because I was invited by the Mi clan of the East China Sea to keep their grange in Pengcheng State, and I have no intention of becoming an enemy of Cao's army. Please Gong Liu brother to reply to Meng Degong, my Ma Han will never take the initiative to participate in the battle of Xuzhou, nor will he take the initiative to attack Cao's army. In the same way, I also hope that Cao Jun will not step into the area of my protection. ”

Ma Han finally said sincerely: "Brother Gong Liu, no matter who wins or loses in the battle of Xuzhou, food has the same meaning to everyone. The so-called lack of food is unstable, and I believe that Meng Degong does not want to get his hands on it in the end, is a Xuzhou that is in turmoil due to lack of food. ”

Only then did Shi Jian understand the true meaning of Ma Han's amazing arrow, which was Liwei and a warning. I hope that through my own mouth, it will be conveyed to the Cao army, do not destroy the fertile land, do not burn the granary, and do not invade the Mi family's grange.

Shi Jian clenched his fists in return, and said solemnly: "If it is something else, I can't answer it on the spot, but this matter of helping seedlings and protecting the field, the lord has repeatedly warned him, and the words of the dragon are sincere to the lord's wishes." I swear here that I will never destroy the fields for no reason, let alone burn the warehouse, destroy the grain, and destroy the evil deeds of the heavens. ”

Shi Lian's words are indeed sincere, you must know that in the first expedition to Xuzhou, Cao Jun was finally planted on the lack of grain and grass. And after returning to Yanzhou, the process of raising grain was also extremely difficult. Cao Jun, from the state pastor to the ordinary pawn, has suffered enough from the lack of food, and he is deeply touched by this aspect.

Historically, Cao Cao mistakenly stepped on wheat seedlings during the march, and cut his hair for the sake of military discipline, which happened at this time. Similarly, it was also during this period that Cheng Yu, one of Cao Cao's most important advisers, was short of food on the front line, so he pickled the corpses of soldiers and civilians who died in battle and died of illness into human jerky to serve as military rations. Therefore, he was called the "human kitchen", and his reputation was eventually damaged, and he was not listed as the third public in his life.

This qiē is closely related to grain. As Cao Cao's confidant and favorite general, Shi Jian naturally did not fail to understand its importance.

It's such a coincidence, Ma Han confronted Cao Jun for the second time, and hit Cao Jun's soft underbelly, Cao Cao couldn't refuse such a request, and he would fully cooperate.

All of them are for the most important material of the war - food.

To everyone's surprise, when both sides were working hard to ensure a bumper grain harvest, God no longer seemed to be able to stand the chaos of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, and blatantly sent down heavenly punishment. (To be continued......)
