At the banquet, Cao Zhenyan said, "General Wenyuan is also not kind, but with a brother like you but not recommended to the imperial court, wouldn't it be a pillar of talent?"
Zhang Jaw also nodded, and said, "Yes, Wen Yuan mentioned a brother with such a ability." It's not a secret, I didn't plan to enter the court as an official in the future," Nie Yuan sighed and hugged his fists, "Brother is old, only because of the changes in the family, he had to flee outside, protected by Meng Lubu, and later thanked Meng De for the kindness of his acquaintance, so he was willing to serve, and I still have a high hall alive in my family, and I must also be filial."
Left and right, can't leave."
Cao Zhen nodded and said, "Zhuang Shi's red heart is admirable."
Nie Yuan frowned slightly, gloomy, and said, "I heard that my brother died of illness, Gao Tang was very sad, and asked me to come forward to inform Zhang Hu, because I was thinking about it, I hope to be able to see Sun Xiao, but I can't think about it."
When it came to Zhang Hu, Cao Zhen and the others also bowed their heads and were silent, the general would inevitably die, this kind of thing could not be predicted by anyone, and no one wanted it to happen.
Nie Yuan sighed softly and said slowly, "Actually, as a famous general, being able to die in battle on the sand is the best destination, but the little tiger is still ......."
Zhang Hu was indignant, and said, "Zhang Hu really has the majestic style of Wenyuan, in order to cover the retreat of the generals and block the Wu army alone, he must be able to smile at Jiuquan!"
Nie Yuan let out a sigh of anger, "My brother wrote to me to take care of Xiaohu in the future, but unfortunately I arrived late."
Cao Zhen suddenly asked, "Since you still have a high hall on top, why do you suddenly want to join the army?"
Nie Yuan gritted his teeth, looked at Cao Zhen and hugged his fists, and said, "There are still things below, but I have one condition for joining the army this time."
"Conditions?" Zhang Jaw was inexplicable, and couldn't help frowning, if he wanted to be a table tennis player, it was impossible for him to directly lead the army because of Zhang Liao's relationship!
But he listened to Nie Yuan and said, "If I join the army, I will only use ping pong for Eastern Wu, and I will not conquer Western Shu."
Cao Zhen frowned and said, "What does this mean?"
Nie Yuan said, "It's not a secret, this time I surrendered to the army against the old man's will, originally my brother was going to raise Gao Tang in Xia, but now that something happened, I want to give my brother and Xiaohu an explanation, if Dongwu is defeated in the future, he will retreat in the future."
Speaking of this, he stood up and clenched his fists and said, "The two generals must already know about it, and I hope that the generals will be able to accomplish it."
Cao Zhen hesitated for a moment, it was a pity for a general like Nie Yuan to let go, maybe it was a tiger general who was not inferior to Zhang Liao, Zhang Hu died in the battle with Eastern Wu, and Nie Yuan was aiming to take revenge on Eastern Wu.
I also thought that there were still a lot of battles with Eastern Wu in the future, so it would not be wrong for him to fight on the eastern front, as long as he did not contact the Shu army.
Having made up his mind, Cao Zhen also got up and said, "How can I live up to your intentions, and the battle lines of Xuzhou and Yangzhou are all at war with animals, and this is the place where you make meritorious contributions!"
Nie Yuan saw Cao Zhen agree, and then knelt down to formally thank him.
Cao Zhen and Zhang Jaw were very happy, and they hurriedly helped Nie Yuan up, Cao Zhen, and said, "You are new to the army, and you will be born as General Jianwei by the first general of this army, and you will be rewarded for meritorious service after you are said to have made meritorious service."
Although he is a miscellaneous general, Nie Yuan also understands that some of this is his own ability, and some of it is Zhang Liao's merit, which is not easy, and the others can only wait for the future battlefield to be shown.
As long as there is merit, He Chou has no chance of revenge, so thank you again.
The three of them were all happy, sat down again, and talked about many of Zhang Liao's past events, and they were all embarrassed.
In the southeast, Yangzhou was in flames, and in the northwest, Ma Chao had been in Liangzhou since he was the pastor, and the states and counties had come one after another, and because of the good relationship with the Qiang people, the people of Liangzhou were stable, and they were just waiting for the coming year to recuperate.
In order to further govern Liangzhou, Ma Chao moved the state to Jincheng, where he could support Chang'an, and retreat to prevent the Qiang rebellion and defend the land of Longyou.
Longyou in Zhuge Liang's planning will be the Shu army's horse-producing land, the land is fertile, the water and grass are abundant, Huangzhong and Tianshui will be the main places for riding table tennis training, Hanzhong's final - after the completion of the training of the army horses, no longer train to ride table tennis.
Just after the end of the year, the half moon even heavy snowfall, but also seems to be in the next year's spring ploughing reserve rainwater, just renovated - the new Jincheng inside and outside the lanterns are colorful, very hot.
The people of the entire Xiliang land understand that today is a great joy, not only Liangzhou Mu Ma Chao married the sister of Tianshui Taishou Yin as his wife, but Zhang Bao also married Ma Yaoxue, the daughter of Ma Chao, which can be described as double happiness!
The two couples entered the lobby, first after Ma Chao worshiped heaven and earth, he sat on the top and received Zhang Bao and Ma Yaoxue's kneeling.
"Second worship high hall!" As the wedding master of ceremonies, Jufu was so excited that his face was red, and his voice was a little hoarse when he shouted twice.
Zhang Bao, dressed in a red robe, knelt on the ground with a red silk belt and Ma Yaoxue, and bowed again and again to Ma Chao and his wife in purple and red robes in the high hall.
In the cheers of everyone, Jufu cleared his throat and shouted again, "Husband and wife......"
"Big brother, it's not good!" At this moment, his master of ceremonies was interrupted by a hurried shout, but it was Ma Dai, the deputy of the army, who hurried from outside.
"What's so alarming?" Ma Chao's face was slightly gloomy, and he got up to look at Ma Dai.
"Big brother, there is an urgent report from Anding, a large number of Huns have appeared, looting the local area, many counties and townships have been harmed, and the county guard is difficult to resist," Ma Dai came to the lobby, understanding that now was not the time to speak, but the army was in a hurry, and had to report.
"Huns? Hmph!" Ma Chao slammed his fist on the table, his eyes awe-inspiring, looking into the distance.
The rest of the people are also in an uproar, since the Xiongnu were suppressed by Xianbei, they have rarely come to the northwest, and they often carry out activities in Jiuyuan County and Bingzhou, how could they come to plunder Liangzhou?
"Master, let's go out of the ping-pong game!" Zhang Bao - Listening to the Huns' invasion, the mood of worshipping the church is gone, so I directly ask for an order.
"It's just a hun and yourself, don't worry," Ma Chao suddenly sneered, sat down slowly, glared at Zhang Bao and shouted, "Marriage is a lifelong event for Yao Xue, you don't want to give up halfway, even if you have a table tennis, you have to wait until the end of the court!"
Zhang Bao was so frightened that she narrowed her neck and didn't dare to speak again, so she obediently picked up the red silk cloth on the ground again, but found that Ma Yaoxue was secretly pulling the silk ribbon, as if urging.
"Second brother, you go to gather the table tennis horses first, and I'll come later," Ma Chao waved his hand and motioned for Ma Dai to go first, "To deal with the Huns, five thousand fine table tennis is enough."
Ma Dai took the order and left, and Ma Chaocai said to Jufu, "Go on!" Husband and wife worship each other!" Jufu shouted in his voice, but this time he used all his strength, and he also understood that the next step after the worship hall was not a cave room, but a bloody battlefield.

237 Breaking the Huns
After Zhang Bao and Ma Yaoxue finished worshipping, Ma Chaocai laughed, got up and came to Zhang Bao, patted him on the shoulder, "From now on, Yaoxue will hand it over to you, if you dare to bully my Baobei daughter for half a point, I will pull your skin."
"Don't dare!" Zhang Bao nodded repeatedly.
"Huh? What do you call me?" Ma Chao stared.
"Yue ...... Father-in-law!" Zhang Bao hehe—laughs.
"Hahaha, that's just like words!" Ma Chao looked up to the sky and laughed, very satisfied, - patted Zhang Bao on the shoulder, "Go, follow me on the expedition!"
"Dad, I'm going too!" Ma Yao Xue Jing took off her hijab and stood beside her with Zhang Bao's sleeve.
"You?" Ma Chao was stunned, and immediately burst into laughter, "Okay, let's have a fresh clothes and angry horse to fight the Huns today!"
"I wish the general a victory!" The sentence is supported by the people who are seeing off at the door.
Ma Chao, Zhang Bao, and Ma Yaoxue wore red robes and went straight out, but the newlyweds went out with a table tennis team, giving people a different kind of heroic feelings, and the people of Jincheng sent each other off.
Outside the city, the table tennis horses have already lined up neatly, two thousand elite horsemen are majestic, white helmets and white armor reflect the white snow of the city, red helmets flutter in the cold wind, war horses neigh, flags fluttering!
"Big brother, according to the report from Anding Taishou, the Huns have at least 50,000 ping horses, and they are coming in two ways." Ma Dai stepped forward to report the situation, and the road had already taken away Zuli, and the other road had crossed the Wushui and arrived at Fengyi Mountain."
Ma Chao smiled proudly and said, "No matter how many ping horses he comes, he dares to come to my Xiliang to spread wild, and the Huns are picking on the wrong place."
"General, the Xiongnu are divided into two roads, obviously trying to take Meiyang directly, invade Tianshui, and disturb Fufeng, and their goal is probably in Chang'an!" The sentence is on the side of the frowning analysis.
