Daling City, the defense of Pingtao City makes people look tighter, Xu Rong accepted the previous lesson, and hung the cowhides and other things collected in the city on the city wall, under the cover, the thunderbolt car also lost its previous prestige under Pingtao City, and the defenders could also calmly deal with the siege of the Xiliang Army.

"My lord, Xu Rong has learned from his previous experience and built Daling quite strongly, I'm afraid it's not so easy to attack." Jia Xu stroked his beard under his chin and said with a smile.

Jia Rong shook his head disapprovingly, "The morale of the enemy army has been completely defeated by our army in the first battle of Pingtao, and the city of Daling was captured, but it is the length of time, after the capture of Daling, Li Ru in the face of the state is the biggest enemy, the hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, although Li Ru has been running the state for a short time, there is still some heritage." ”

Jia Xu nodded yes, the three armies were stationed in the open space not far from Daling City, which made the defenders in the city feel great pressure, and Xu Rong kept going back and forth above the city every day to appease the army.

Since Duan Xuan was killed by Lu Bu's sneak attack and Ma Chao's army last time, when the cavalry rested, the defense was tighter, and the scouts in the army kept wandering around the army for ten miles, guarding against the sneak attack of the cavalry of the Xiliang Army.

Ma Chao lost hundreds of cavalry, his mood was a little low, while mentioning the failure in the book, on the other hand, he naturally inquired about Duan Xuan's movements, intending to regain face, in his eyes, Duan Xuan only had more than 2,000 cavalry in his hands, but he was the world-famous Xiliang Army, how could he be invincible, this is also a disadvantage of the Xiliang Army generals, many years of conquest, so that they have a glory that is difficult for ordinary princes and generals to achieve, but often this kind of good haode feeling, let them go astray, A small mistake on the battlefield is accompanied by the death of a soldier.

But the previous battle made Ma Chao's psychological advantage disappear, and it seemed that he underestimated the princes of the world, but he was young and vigorous, of course he would not admit defeat, even Lu Bu, a famous general of the Western Liang Army, could not make him feel afraid, not to mention the little-known Duan Xuan.

The scouts on both sides began to fight again, listening to the number of scouts lost every day, Ma Chao's heart couldn't help but tremble slightly, if it goes on like this, there is no need to fight, the battle of the Xiliang army has always been to win more with less, how could there ever be such a time of grievance.

It seems to make Ma Chao even more ugly, after getting Mu Da reinforcements, Lu Bu and Ma Chao will be united, but the teams on both sides are irrelevant to each other, and the resting places are also clearly divided.

Ma Chao's eyes looking at Lu Bu also contained a trace of understanding, in the face of such an opponent, dare to use more than 100 cavalry to attack the opponent's camp unprepared, how difficult it is, thinking of these, Ma Chao's look towards Lu Bu also lost his previous arrogance, and some questions were asked to Lu Bu for advice, but Lu Bu still looked arrogant, ignoring it, so Ma Chao no longer took care of Lu Bu.

With soldiers in his hands, Lu Bu's ambition was completely stimulated, and he was defeated by Duan Xuan, if he said that he didn't have a little anger in his heart, he must be lying, as a general in the Xiliang army, he was already arrogant.

"General!" Muda saluted on his horse.

Lu Bu nodded slightly, clenched his fists and replied: "General Mu Da has worked hard all the way!" "Mu Da is a warrior on the grassland, Lu Bu does not dare to have the slightest contempt, a series of battles on the grassland, if there is no Mu Da to make suggestions, Lu Bu can not win so easily, Mu Da is not only a fierce general, but also a wise general, and also has a great reputation on the grassland.

Seeing Mu Da's talent, Lu Bu used it more and more.

"General, I have heard about it on the road, and I have simmered in the state section, and I have repeatedly suffered setbacks on the battlefield?" Mu Da asked.

Lu Bu has a great reputation on the grassland, a single horse dares to rush to kill hundreds of cavalry on the other side, such a fierce man, the commander has always been the army, the influence on the soldiers is great, a lion with a group of sheep combat effectiveness is even more than a sheep leading a group of lions, Lu Bu on the grassland, that is the eagle in the sky, brave and good at fighting, wherever he goes, can attract the attention of the herdsmen on the grassland.

Lu Bu's face was slightly red, "I miscalculated for a while, and I was calculated by Duan Xuan'er!" ”

"Mu Da, this is General Ma Chao of the Xiliang Army?" Lu Bu introduced.

"Oh," Mu Da looked at Ma Chao, and a trace of imperceptible fierceness flashed in his eyes, "I've seen General Ma!" ”

Ma Chao couldn't help but feel a little unhappy when he saw that Mu Da was a Xianbei person, the Xianbei person was just a slave of the Xiliang Army, but Lu Bu introduced himself so ceremoniously, obviously not paying attention to his own performance.

"You're welcome!" Ma Chao said lightly.

Seeing that Ma Chao was so rude to Mu Da, Lu Bu was immediately furious and scolded: "Ma Chao is just a yellow-mouthed child, he dares to be so big in front of this general, do you think that the halberd in the general's hand is not sharp?" ”

The generals in the tent changed color when they heard this, and Lu Bu, who was still amiable, suddenly scolded.

Ma Chao was not afraid and said: "I have heard that General Lu Bu is the champion of the three armies, and he is very willing to ask for advice!" ”

The two of them don't like each other overnight, one is Lu Bu, who was personally given by Jia Rong as the first fierce general of the Xiliang Army, and the other is Ma Chao, the emerging fierce general of the Xiliang Army, the two are at war, and the generals are also quite looking forward to it, many generals are rising stars in the army, plus Lu Bu has been on the grassland for many years, most of them have not seen Lu Bu's majestic posture on the battlefield, but they are very optimistic about Ma Chao, a body of marksmanship is unfathomable, Ma Chao has a great reputation in the cavalry, otherwise Jia Rong sent him to fight Duan Xuan, and some generals in the army have no complaints.

Lu Bu was really angry, in Xiliang Army, he always said that martial arts were second, no one dared to say first, Ma Chao dared to provoke in public.

Gripping the halberd with both hands, because it was too hard, the green tendons protruded.

"Kill!" Lu Bu painted the halberd in his hand, and the whole person seemed to be integrated with the halberd, kicking the horse's belly, and the war horse galloped towards Ma Chao.

But anyone who speaks wildly is either a fool with superb strength, or a fool, who can lead a general alone in the Xiliang Army, which shows that Ma Chao is not a fool, when he was fighting against Xianbei, the young Ma Chao once shined.

Lu Bu calculated in his heart how to defeat Ma Chao as quickly as possible, so as to be able to show the prestige of the first brave general of the Xiliang Army, and Ma Chao also planned how to defeat Lu Bu and seize the title of the first fierce general in the army.

A halberd and a gun, all the moves are done with all their might.

A flush flashed on Ma Chao's slightly immature face, this blow, he completely withstood the force from the halberd, the strong strength, he couldn't help but surging his blood and blood, but out of face, he forced the discomfort of his body down.

Lu Bu sneered, shook his halberd, and slashed at Ma Chao again, after Fang Cai's fight, he had already preliminarily tested Ma Chao's strength, but he was just a hairy boy, he didn't know the height of the sky, he made provocative words, he must break his face in front of everyone, so that even if Jia Rong knew, he would not blame anything, his skills were not as good as others.

The blow was shocked, Ma Chao's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he shot at Lu Bu again, one move and one style contained endless power, and he had the momentum of not beating Lu Bu off the horse and vowing not to give up.

In the eyes of outsiders, Ma Chao actually had the upper hand for a while, but in fact, his family knew his own affairs, Ma Chao was already the end of the crossbow, and today's move was just to strengthen face, only need to wait for three or five rounds, Ma Chao himself exposed the defect of insufficient strength.

Mu Da looked coldly at this Han general who dared to challenge Lu Bu, and had to admire this person's courage and martial arts, just then he provoked it at will, and there was some fear in his heart, if it was used by someone with a heart as a handle and passed to Jia Rong's ears, it might not be what kind of bloody storm would be set off, for an insignificant Xianbei person, Jia Rong would never tolerate the death fight of his generals, and it was this meaningless fight to the death, Mu Da wanted to step forward to admonish him, but he thought that the effect would be even worse, so he stopped standing in place.

The halberd in Lu Bu's hand turned into a stab, straight to Ma Chao's neck, if this blow is implemented, Ma Chao will be killed, his heart was shocked, Ma Chao hurriedly shot to resist, who expected Lu Bu's move to change again, and stabbed directly at Ma Chao's face.

The tip of the halberd stopped more than an inch away from Ma Chao's face, and Lu Bu said with a cold face: "But you took it?" ”

"Skills are not as good as others!" Ma Chao's eyes were lowered, and there was a slight frustration in his tone.

Lu Bu put away the halberd and glared at Mu Da, "Go!" "Two thousand cavalry broke away from Ma Chao's team and rushed towards the battlefield in the distance, in the dry weather, bringing up a lot of dust, and after a while, in addition to the horseshoe prints on the road, there were no traces of Lu Bu and others.

"General, General Lu?" Mi Wei Dao.

"Carefully inquire about the movements of Duan Xuan and the others, you must not lose face in front of the army, Lu Bu is just a reckless man on the battlefield, there is nothing to worry about, as long as Duan Xuan is eliminated, the great credit will be ours." Ma Chaodao, Fang Cai's face that was dying because of the defeat also disappeared, for the generals, whether it is victory or defeat, they must keep calm, he suddenly thought of what Jia Rong had taught in the military class, and his mood calmed down.

Mi Wei hugged his fists and left, but he was a little disappreciative of Ma Chao in his heart, he joined the army for a longer time than Ma Chao, and he knew a lot about Lu Bu's martial arts and bravery, plus now Mi Huan has become Jia Rong's wife, Mi Wei's status in the army is naturally rising, but Ma Chao is the first in the world, and anyone who sees it will not be happy.

"Find Duan Xuan's location, if Lao Tzu doesn't eliminate them, he won't be surnamed Lu!" Lu Bu said with a pale face, although Ma Chao's provocation was victorious, he was still a little unhappy in his heart, if this matter spread, the generals of the Xiliang Army would only say that he was bullying the small, and fighting with Ma Chao, regardless of victory or defeat, Lu Bu's loss was the greatest.
