Chapter 224: Proud of his toes, staring at the west and cool

"That's ...... like this"

"Why is this happening, these generals are really Xu Bowen's generals?"

"Damn, these people have this kind of force! Don't make a name for yourself! Hide in Bingzhou and be a little general! ”

Ma Chao's nose began to be sour, I really haven't suffered this kind of grievance when I grow so big, I grew up fighting with people in Xiliang, whether it is fighting alone or leading soldiers, I have never lost.

Now he lost Xu Chu and Dian Wei, and tonight he lost Zhao Zilong, who had never met but has always been famous.

Those old people are going to lose next, and who can they lose to?

Xu Bowen!

I don't even know what Xu Bowen looks like......

These people, do you have nothing to do?

Isn't there any war elsewhere?

Why are these generals suddenly coming to the border?

Ma Chao was in turmoil.

After a day of rest like this, I no longer have the heart to lead the troops as aggressively as I did at the beginning, and I am still reviewing the battle of that day.

The figures of Zhao Yun and Dian Wei were lingering in their minds, but as soon as they rested for a while, they immediately came to call for war again.

This time it's a veteran over half a hundred years old.

When the guards came to report, the entire tent fell into a deathly silence, and Ma Chao and Ma Dai had nothing to say, veteran?!

"Even, veterans are starting to dare to bully me?!"

Ma Chao looked up with hatred in his eyes, looked at the person with an unbelievable face, and only felt that his heart was complicated and extremely hurt.

The biggest insult he's ever suffered in his life, I'm afraid that's it.

"Get my gun! Today, he is going to behead this rude person, Xu Bowen deceived people too much, so he let him lose a veteran! ”

"Brother, don't!"

Ma Dai hurriedly got up, almost hugged his upper body, and eagerly stopped him, there must be a demon when things go wrong, Xu Bowen is not a reckless man, on the contrary, he knows how to break other people's mentality.

At this time, there must be a reason why an old man is willing to challenge him.

"Brother, I really can't go again, I know a little before, there is indeed a veteran under Xu Bowen, who has killed Yan Liang, led tens of thousands of troops, and is very brave."

"It is said that he was originally a general of Jingzhou, but later followed Xu Zhen to the north together, and over the years he has made many military exploits under his command, governing the army strictly, and has a very high prestige in the army."

"That's also a general over half a hundred years old!!"

Ma Chao pushed his brother away, his face was already about to cry, if he really didn't dare to go, I was afraid that he would be laughed at for a lifetime in the future, and it was really like what Zhao Zilong said!

I might as well be in a safe corner, stop fighting for hegemony and seek merit, it is better to take advantage of my father's death to change a title, survive in the world, and become the biggest laughing stock in Xiliang over the years.

A must go!!

How can you be a turtle with a shrunken head because of this!

"Don't go, don't go! If you lose again......"

"I didn't lose!"

Ma Chao's eyes were red, and he yelled to break Ma Dai's words, and at this time he was forced to the edge of the cliff by Xu Zhen.

"Brother, calm down."

Ma Dai persuaded bitterly.

And Ma Chao sighed heavily and said, "How can I not be calm?!" ”

"At this time, don't you understand what the situation is?!"

"I'm waiting, I've been forced to the verge of retreating by Xu Zhen, if the morale is suppressed again, I'm afraid even Jingzhao won't be able to hold it, a soldier and horse with no morale, what can be used to block the momentum of the ever-winning army?!"

"Why do we dare to raid Tongguan?!"

Ma Chao's cheeks puffed up, patiently explained to Ma Dai, his eyes stared at him deadly, his own Ma brothers, few talents, although they are both talented in civil and military affairs, but they are all human servants, and they can't judge by themselves.

After all, it's not a manager's talent.

When Ma Dai heard this, he really understood that he had to win once, and if he didn't fight or was defeated, his morale would be hit, and if he sent troops to fight at this time, he would only lose faster.

He didn't know why Xu Zhen wanted to play such a challenge and invite fight, but now he understood that this was not to show off the fierce generals under his command, but to take advantage of the situation to continue to suppress, and at the same time accumulate a large army at the border, ready to fight with Ma Chao at any time.

And the Xiliang soldiers themselves had high fighting spirit before the war, and were boosted by anger, and their combat power was extraordinary, but now they are completely different.

Once the war starts, they will have no chance of winning, and they will soon be beaten by the state soldiers without the power to fight back, this kind of mentality, even the general thinks so, not to mention the many soldiers and horses under his command.

"Brother, ...... now"

"Gotta go!"

Ma Chao was about to cry and asked!

At this time, silence should be better than sound!

What else can I do if I don't go?!

"Fifty-year-old veteran, no problem, besides, I have a day off, and now I have recovered very well, and I will never be defeated by him, you immediately go to the whole set of three armies, and when I kill this general, I will immediately send troops to attack."

"Whoa!"

Ma Dai clenched his fists and left, disappearing out of the tent in an instant.

Not long after, Ma Chao sent out with the guards, and the cavalry followed, and Ma Dai informed Han Sui of the matter, and Han Sui gathered his army and prepared for a decisive battle with Xu Zhen.

After noon, the winter snow melted a little, Huang Zhong came with a bow on his back, with a horse chopping knife in his hand, waiting leisurely for a long time, his expression was quite flat, and he didn't seem to look at Ma Chao in his eyes.

As soon as he saw the arrival of this general wearing a brocade robe and a white helmet, he immediately let out a loud laugh, "Hahahaha!" I thought he was such a wise and martial man that he dared to call himself a god and a mighty general, but I didn't expect it to be a yellow-mouthed child. ”

"Xiliang barbarian is really arrogant, more than ten years ago there was a self-defeating Dong thief, some time ago it was my father who entered the capital, I didn't expect to see you today, it is even more sad, when the real Han family declined, it was taken advantage of by you people who have no ability."

"Come, come, come! Stab me with your spear! ”

Huang Zhong brushed his beard, and at the same time brandished his war saber and spun in mid-air, which angered Ma Chao for a while, making him can't help but grit his teeth and stare at Huang Zhong viciously.

He was originally a strong age of flesh and blood, and even if he had a heart, he was uneasy when he heard these words, and of course he refused to be convinced, especially when he mentioned his father's death.

"Old thief, die!"

After Ma Chao shouted angrily, he galloped his horse and rushed towards Huang Zhong's side, so that he could shoot the gun with his right hand.

Boxing is naturally invincible to young and strong.

Since he is holding it up, he must not let go of this opportunity, and he will definitely make this old thief unable to resist because of his arrogance within one round, and it is best to fall to the ground immediately.

In an instant, Ma Chao came on horseback, Huang Zhong floated away, his body dodged the blow very quickly, his hands danced the handle of the horse sword, his eyes were sharp, he shouted fiercely, and slashed down obliquely.

It turned out that he also wanted to provoke Ma Chao, and his empty eyes saw his flaws early, just after the shot.

At the moment when Ma Chao surpassed the gun, both hands and feet were extremely strong, and the experienced Huang Zhong had already seen through this was a real move, and Ma Chao wanted to kill and stab himself with one blow.

The young man was too impatient, looking for the opportunity to meet for the first time unexpectedly.

And although Huang Zhong is actually not an old treacherous and cunning, he is also flawed as soon as he comes, he seems to be frivolous and impetuous, he doesn't take Ma Chao in his eyes at all, and what comes out of his mouth is also contemptuous, but in his heart, he attaches great importance to it.

So you can understand at a glance that Ma Chao is completely fooled.

The master made a move, in fact, this move was enough, Ma Chao came to resist with a horizontal gun, and was slashed on the body of the gun with a knife, and the war horse struggled to leave sideways, avoiding a little distance, but where was Huang Zhong willing to let go of this opportunity.

Grabbed the reins with one hand, urged Ma to fight with both legs, entangled Ma Chao to prevent him from leaving, and where the long knife fell, it was in the vital part, so that Ma Chao was overwhelmed.

At the same time, Huang Zhong's strength is also very great, not as Ma Chao thought, although he is gradually getting old, he is no less brave than a general in his prime.

It is even bigger than many Xiliang warriors, and his martial arts sword skills are not fast, but he is extremely accurate, and every time he can perfectly catch the time when Ma Chaoxinli is not born.

Yes, in less than a dozen rounds, Ma Chao was already getting more and more tired, and was overwhelmed, at this time, he stood up and waved his spear, slammed several times, hit a wheezing distance, quickly pulled the horse away, jumped away not far away to gasp, and looked at Huang Zhong with a shocked face.

At this time, his eyes no longer had the slightest contempt for the elderly, although the old man had white hair, but his spirit was rare, and he was still not tired after more than a dozen rounds.

It's not easy.

Who are Xu Zhen's subordinates?!

Ma Chao gritted his teeth and glared angrily for a moment, he actually had fear in his heart, and secretly thought: They are still so powerful in fighting alone, and they also have their own skills in leading troops, can I really cross Tongguan and invade the state?

Cao Cao has Xu Bowen to guard and annex the state, and Xiliang is afraid that within one or two years, there will be no chance.

"Hmph, little doll, your martial arts are indeed good, but you are far from being invincible in the world, compared to many deceased generals back then, there are still a lot of city mansions."

"The deceased general?"

Ma Chao reacted as soon as he heard it, this old guy is showing off his exploits, most of the famous generals in the north, aren't they also killed by you?

At this time, the implication is that you, the generals under Xu Zhen, are still skilled.

"Hmph, hit and fight, what do you do with this, just now I treat you as a fifty-year-old veteran, I have never used all my strength, my Ma Chao has never fought with the old and weak women and children, if you take advantage of this to fight, I am tied, what is the point of winning or losing, or let Dian Wei come out, I want to share with him again!"

"Hahahaha!!"

Huang Zhong laughed a few times, with a bright smile on his face, and then suddenly put it away, opening his bow and arrows at an extremely fast speed, and all the movements were almost done in one go.

With a whoosh, the shadow of the arrow flew by, and the red tassel on Ma Chao's helmet was shot down in an instant, and the soldiers who swept around immediately applauded.

Ma Chao's head moved, he sensed a huge force, took off his helmet and looked at it, and was immediately surprised.

"Huh?!"

Such a fast archery, this old man, the most powerful thing is not horse fighting, but archery, it is so accurate and powerful.

If it shoots in front of me, I'm afraid I'm dead now.

"Little doll, do you think I spared your life too? When you fight alone, you haven't said weapons, it's okay to use bows and arrows, if you want to fight to the death, I would have killed you back to your life! ”

Ma Chao was hit hard again, and he was a strange man, Xu Bowen was indeed a talented person, otherwise how could his command gather so many warriors who followed.

Archery is superb, and unlike those who are brave in force, it is an elegant skill, such as swordsmanship, which can be used for noble celebrations and can also be used to kill enemies on the battlefield.

The sharpshooter who wears Yang in a hundred steps is much rarer than the fierce general, and this fifty-year-old man and a half-hundred-year-old man is no wonder he will be entrusted with a heavy task.

At this time, on the hillside in the distance, a group suddenly came out of the formation and walked slowly towards them, and everyone's eyes were attracted.

I saw a young general with a long knife hanging on his waist, handsome and martial, with a solemn face and rode out of his horse, and the knife on his waist was as long as a horse chopping knife, and the handle was more than a foot long.

The blade of the knife is like a seedling, with a supple texture and a carved red blood line.

The hair of the war horse under the seat is thick and flying, tall and mighty, like a divine horse in the sky, domineering, just walking out, the war horse under his seat is a little timid.

This horse...... Ma Chaoke is no stranger at all, this is the mount that all the martial artists in the world want to submit, the red rabbit who is famous because of Lu Bu and famous because of Xu Zhen.

Red as fire, eyes like knives.

Red rabbit in the horse.

"Xu Bowen?"

Ma Chao asked tentatively.

He had thought that it might be him, but he didn't expect to be so young, all the portraits in his camp were four years ago, but now he was younger than the portraits.

"Ma Mengqi," the person who came was Xu Zhen, more than a dozen steps away, looking at Ma Chao from a distance, his face was cold and solemn without any emotion, as if everything had been decided, and he didn't need to take any more risks.

It's just that Ma Chao has no intention of surrendering now, I don't know what Xu Zhen's arrival means, if he comes to persuade him to surrender, even if he is embattled, he will get his wish.

"What are you going to do?"

"Fight with you alone!" Xu Zhen said indifferently: "The generals under my command have all fought with you, so I am naturally willing to come?!" ”

"I know that too."

After Xu Zhen finished speaking, Gao Shun, who was not far from the back, glanced at him and didn't say anything bitterly.

He still didn't understand what he was calling himself for, all the generals had beaten, but when it was time for him, the rider said that the time was almost up, and he pulled the red rabbit up.

"You?!"

Ma Chao almost didn't laugh out loud, Xu Bowen?!

At war with me?!

The commander of the enemy army, what kind of status, he will not go into battle in person, and after so many years, how can Xu Zhen still remember the feeling of charging?!

He has been the commander of the army for several years, and he does not charge for the riders, and the vanguard under his command has its own generals, where do you still understand the difficulty of fighting.

Even if he was born in the army, he would not dare to come to the battlefield to fight alone.

Since he dared to come, he may really have the ability, or he may be conceited.

But I have to say that this may be the best opportunity, as long as Xu Bowen is killed, the general of the army will be greatly reversed, this is the opportunity he personally sent, don't I want it?!

"Come on!"

Ma Chao smiled lightly, took a deep breath at the same time, dropped his helmet on the ground, and did not pull out the arrow on it, at this moment he only had Xu Bowen who was also not wearing a helmet in his eyes.

and the two-handed Miao knife at his waist.

At the moment when Ma Chao shouted, Xu Zhen had already rushed on his horse, leaning over the head of the war horse, the red rabbit was too fast, like a red streamer running in front of him in an instant.

More than a dozen steps at its feet are like a small ditch, leaping to reach, the shadow comes first and the majesty comes later, as if pressing in front of it like a mountain, so that the horse is shocked.

This person is not moving, and when he moves, he is wrapped in momentum, and it is indeed the power of a famous general, so he is half a beat slower.

It also fell into the defensive.

The knife on Xu Zhen's waist was not pulled out, but raised from the side and could be unsheathed.

No wonder it's almost horizontal.

Ma Chao just felt this, and the knife had already cut a semicircle, and he was cut off on the head.

A dark shadow covered the sunlight, and Xu Zhen was actually standing on a war horse.

While!!

There was a huge crisp sound, and at this time, all the soldiers around were silent, and in the daytime, in the snow, Xu Zhen fell with a knife, and Ma Chao raised his horizontal gun with both hands to resist.

His war horse even knelt on its front legs, while the red rabbit was on his toes, his head was raised, and his front hooves were raised, showing off his might.

It's like a great picture.
