Ma Chao led 3,000 cavalry. Starting from Zishi, crossing the border and passing through Qi County, he ran to Yangyi in one breath, which is only eighty miles away from Jinyang City, the seat of the state administration.

Zhang Liao has been quietly following Ma Chao for three days. Seeing this muddy boy tossing hard, he was about to hold back the anger in his heart, and was ready to put Zhao Xing's advice aside, and teach Ma Chao, a stunned young man who didn't know the height of the sky, to teach Ma Chao a hard lesson.

Guo Jia on the side kept dissuading Zhang Liao, and from time to time he had to pull his daughter-in-law Zhao Yu to divert Zhang Liao's attention together. Seeing that some of the big clans instigated by the rumors released by Ma Chao began to make a fuss, Guo Jia suggested that Zhang Liao could close the net. With the help of Ma Chao's unintentional move, it is necessary to simply clean up a group of internal dissidents with dissidents, but it must be mastered to a certain degree, and it cannot be turned into a large-scale liquidation movement. Zhao Xing understands this in his heart, and Guo Jia also knows it very well.

Zhang Liao waited for Guo Jia to say the sentence "You can do it", since Guo Jia had already nodded, all that was left was to see how Jin Ma Chao was played and cried by the smiling tiger Zhang Wenyuan. Zhang Liao ordered people to take out a large-scale marching map, carefully observe the terrain around Yangyi, and then put the location of the siege of Ma Chao in the middle of the road from Yangyi to Jinyang City through Yuci.

Guo Jia and Zhao Yu then took 10,000 dragoons and chose a shortcut on the bowstring and went directly to the outside of Yuci City to set up an ambush, while Zhang Liao followed Ma Chao with the remaining 10,000 dragoons. Zhang Liao's task was to block Ma Chao's retreat, and at the same time to prevent Pang De's 7,000 cavalry from catching up from behind and Ma Chao's 3,000 cavalry from converging. And Guo Jia and Zhao Yu's task is naturally to dig a big pit and put Ma Chao's 3,000 cavalry into their pockets one by one.

Maintaining friendly relations with Ma Teng is a red line that cannot be crossed in this operation, but this does not prevent Zhang Liao from collecting some interest from Ma Chao. These 3,000 Xiliang cavalry, Zhang Liao seems to be decided.

It's no wonder that Zhang Liao is a guy who plucks the feathers of geese, in fact, he is also planning for the long-term of the state. Even if the danger of annexing the states can be properly resolved in the end, the attrition of the various armies is not low, and after the enemy forces around it withdraw, the annexation will also be in a period of weakness for a period of time, unable to attack the surrounding forces. Although the number of 3,000 cavalry is not much, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat, and it is better to eat a bite than to catch nothing.

Ma Chao stopped in Yangyi for a while, and after proudly accepting some local powerful funds, he swaggered towards Jinyang City according to Zhang Liao's speculation. Ma Chao planned to make a big circle around Qinshui and Fenshui in Taiyuan County this time, although he didn't fight with anyone, it could be regarded as a ruthless discount on Zhao Xing's face. This kid blames his father Ma Teng for being too tight, and he talked about Zhao Xing at every turn, which made Ma Chao regard Zhao Xing as the first mountain in his life that needed to be crossed.

In fact, where Zhao Xing is a mountain is as simple as that, Zhao Xing's current strength is compared with Ma Chao, even if it is not a Everest, it is also a towering Kunlun, if you want to surpass Zhao Xing, Ma Chao estimates that there is no hope.

Ma Chao accepted the benefits of others in front, patted his ass and left, but these rich families who dared to come out were going to encounter great trouble. The Shadow Team members secretly recorded these guys who had complaints and even hatred towards Zhao Xing and the Zhenbei General's Mansion one by one, just waiting for Zhang Liao, who caught up behind.

Zhang Liao was not ambiguous, and according to Guo Jia's idea, he divided these rich families into three categories: the first category belonged to those that must be eliminated, and the family property was directly confiscated and driven out of the state. Of course, such a group is a very small number, and it is also very dangerous, and it may have raised a family private soldier; the second category belongs to the severe punishment, and half of the family property will be confiscated, and it will be kept in the state for three years. If you have repented and thought about it, you will remain in the state in the future, and if you resist to the end, you will be dealt with according to the first category, and the third category belongs to the slightest beating, and after paying a deposit, you can return the peace of the whole family and the whole family.

For Zhang Liao, dealing with these big families is just a gesture. He didn't care that others said he was a vampire, nor was he afraid that others would call him a bandit. In his opinion, since these families and big clans enjoy the good policies and good treatment of the merger state, and still want to overthrow Zhao Xing and oppose the merger, they must be punished. If it weren't for Zhao Xing's unwillingness to do more killing, Zhang Liao wouldn't mind killing a few monkeys to show all the chickens in Bingzhou.

Some families and families who originally thought that Bingzhou was about to change were greeted by Zhang Liao, who was like a debt collector, not long after Ma Chao left. The ending is self-explanatory, some spend money to settle things, and are so frightened by Zhang Liao that they don't dare to have other ideas, and some are directly expelled from the state with their families, crying and crying so miserably. For those who don't want to leave, Zhang Liao said very clearly, he will be sent directly to the mine and the north as a laborer, and he can come back after ten years of work!

Pound, who wiped Ma Chao's farts all the way, gradually discovered the seriousness of the situation. When he saw many dealers and families looking at his team with anger in their eyes along the way, and some families moving out with sad faces, Pang De knew that Ma Chao was in trouble this time. So he hurriedly urged his subordinates to hurry up, wanting to catch up with Ma Chao as soon as possible to avoid a more unpredictable situation.

On this day, Ma Chao came to a place less than twenty miles away from Yuci County. The originally flat terrain changed here, and there were two steep mounds that just blocked the way of the cavalry, leaving only a ravine in the middle to pass. Ma Chao came at a gallop all the way, never encountered any ambush and resistance, and his vigilance had dropped a lot. The 3,000 cavalry under his command also did not experience too many brutal battles, so they were also ignorant, not knowing that danger was in front of them.

Ma Chao continued to carry forward the style of taking the lead, riding on a sturdy white horse, and rushed into the deep ditch with murderous vigour, while the three thousand cavalry followed up. Seeing the steep soil slopes on both sides of the ravine, Ma Chao suddenly felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't see any clues, so he had to secretly carry the tiger's head golden gun, hoping to get out of this valley as soon as possible.

Ma Chao, who was sweating in his heart, finally walked out of this valley safely and smoothly, and was about to take a good breath, when he suddenly heard a loud sound of the mountain shaking behind him, and when he looked back, he found that the valley mouth he had just passed had all collapsed, and three thousand cavalry were trapped in the valley by a rolling down earthen wall.

In fact, what Ma Chao didn't know was that at the end of the deep valley that he had just led his army into, the dirt slopes on both sides had also been blown up, and the rolling loess had blocked the retreat of the 3,000 cavalry. What is it called catching a turtle in an urn? That's the best answer.

Guo Jiacai had no interest in letting his daughter-in-law Zhao Yu take the brothers of the dragoons to divide the victory with the three thousand cavalry under Ma Chao. In this way, there will inevitably be casualties on both sides, and there is no guarantee that all 3,000 cavalry will be left. With a little trick, with the help of terrain conditions, use thunder to block both ends of the deep valley, and then starve the three thousand cavalry in the valley for two or three days, and see that they are not convinced!

The question is, Ma Chaoran out! Could it be that Guo Jia did it on purpose? The answer is yes. Since Guo Jia can easily calculate 3,000 cavalry, he naturally has a back-up move waiting for the young and vigorous Ma Chao......
