Ma Chao is here!

Wei Shi's heart sank.

A famous general in the Three Kingdoms period, Ma Chao's name is no less than Guan and Zhang.

Among the five tiger generals of Shu Han, Ma Chao ranked third.

Of course, what Wei Shi cares about the most is not how strong Ma Chao's force is.

It is Ma Chao's changeable personality, with the admiration of courage and bravery, boldness and righteousness, and the evaluation of arrogance, selfishness, unscrupulousness, and recklessness.

Since the troops went north, Wei Shi specially instructed the scouts to inquire in many ways, and also collected a lot of information about Ma Chao.

In the first battle of Ma Chaodao, he was only seventeen years old, and in terms of months, he was even a month younger than when Wei Shi had just crossed the road.

At that time, Dong Zhuo's generals Wang Fang and Li Meng were instructed by Li Xuan and Guo Yan to drive away Wenhou Lu Bu and occupy Chang'an to cause chaos.

During the Hedong War, Ma Chao led the Xiliang cavalry to fight with Shi Gaogan and Hedong Taishou Guo Yuan, and made great contributions.

Zhong Xuan then went to Ma Chao to supervise the army, and his status was equivalent to a general in the Sili Captain's Office, and he was ordered to take charge of the county affairs in the area of Fufeng County.

Ma Chao was not very satisfied with this.

Not long ago, Ma Chao did not listen to the dissuasion of the Sili Lieutenant's Mansion, and directly led the army to break through the Sushiwu Fort in Fufeng County, and was so angry that Jiuquan County Taishou Su Ze wanted to fight with Ma Chao.

A brave and combative general.

An unruly hero.

For the same person, the evaluation is divided into two extremes, what is the truth?

Wei Shi also intends to meet Ma Chao and judge it well, who is Jin Ma Chao?

After making up his mind, Wei Shi called Guo Peng over and instructed:

"Zifeng, you tell Ma Mengqi that if he wants to see me, he will come to Yaoguan in person, and I Wei Shi will try to compete with him?"

"Also, if he doesn't dare to come, then he is afraid, and I won't embarrass him, so I will send a hundred good war horses from Xiliang over, and this battle will be written off."

"Finally, tell Ma Chao that the time cannot exceed ten days, and it will not wait for the time to expire."

Wei Shi replied three times in a row, which made Guo Peng extremely relieved when he heard it, and he turned around excitedly to report back to Liang Xing's envoy.

When he was in Yingchuan, he caused trouble because of his righteous deeds, but the blood immersed in his bones still did not dissipate, if Wei Shi avoided Ma Chao's provocation, Guo Peng would be more or less unhappy in his heart.

Looking at the figure of Guo Peng leaving, Wei Shi began to think in his heart.

Originally, he wanted to take the pass as a starting point and expand the territory in the pass step by step, but now there is Ma Chao's appointment to fight, which makes Wei Shi have another idea.

Guanzhong is the birthplace of the Qin State, the old Qin people are fierce and chivalrous, advocating courage and force, even after 2,000 years, it is also related to the title of the stunned baby.

If Wei Shi dodges and doesn't see Ma Chao, he will inevitably be laughed at by the Qin people in Guanzhong, and when the time comes, if he wants to recruit some talents in this land of Sanfu, he is afraid that he will be greatly affected.

Ma Chao's matter will take time.

Wei Shi's side, it is impossible to wait.

He should make good use of this period of time to repair the pass.

Liao Hua was entrusted with an important task, as the guard of the pass, during this time, Liao Hua took the patrol as the first priority, every day together, he took the soldiers and auxiliaries to repair the collapsed place, and he would not let go of the cracks in every stone barrier.

The scenery of being alone made Liao Hua's heart bloom.

Among the generals under Wei Shi, Wei Yan ranked first, and no one questioned it.

But who came in second is up for debate.

Of course, Liao Hua wants to rank second, but Hou Yin, Guo Peng, Wei Cheng, and Wei Gong also have great potential, especially Wei Cheng and Wei Gong, who recognized Wei Shi as their brother-in-law, and came out of a village in Yushuwan, so the relationship is unusual.

Therefore, Liao Hua has always had no bottom in his heart.

This time, Wei Shi stated that he would guard the pass, which was equivalent to acknowledging Liao Hua's status under Wei Yan.

Liao Hua is busy working around Yaoguan, and Hou Yin and Zhang Sheng also have their own errands.

After arranging Liaohua, Wei Shi ordered Hou and Zhang to take Kunshan and Xiong'er Mountain as the foundation and vigorously manage the southwest corner of Hongnong and Nanyang counties.

This battle of Kunshan not only made Wei Shi famous, but also allowed him to see what is called the danger of Kunshan.

The continuous mountains in the area of Shangluo Mountain, Kunshan Mountain, Jun Mountain, and Bear's Ear Mountain can be attacked and defended when you retreat.

For the great princes such as Cao Cao, Liu Biao, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu, the mountains here were poor and desolate places, but for Wei Shi, who was still in the beginning, it was the most ideal place to use troops.

The building near the water is the first to get the month.

Yuan Shao is finished.

The three sons of the Yuan family are estimated to not be able to hold on for long, and the momentum of Cao Cao's unification of the north is unstoppable, and then, without the threat, Luoyang, the old capital of the Han Dynasty, will prosper again.

If Wei Shi had a team of men near Luoyang, he would be able to get close to Cao Wei's center of power on the one hand, and on the other hand, he would be able to

Advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, if there is any abnormal movement on Cao Cao's side, Wei Shi can intervene at any time.

——

Guanzhong, Fufeng County, Huaili.

Captain Si Li, supervising the army, Ma Chao had just received a report from Wei Shi agreeing to make an appointment, and hurriedly called Pang De and Pang Rou over to discuss countermeasures.

Between Xiliang athletes, it is common for them to call each other brothers and sisters the last time they meet, and to tear each other apart the next time they meet.

The last time Ma Chao fought with someone, it was Han Sui's subordinate general Yan Xing, the two each held a spear, and fought back and forth several times, and finally Ma Chao broke Yan Xing's spear, and Yan Xing almost injured Ma Chao's neck with a broken spear.

As a result of this battle, the titles of Ma Chao, Yan Xing, and Xiliang became popular.

Han Sui strengthened Yan Xing's courage and married his daughter to Yan Xing's wife.

"Meng Qi, Wei Shi is extremely cunning, although he agreed to make an appointment, but he wants to put the location in the pass, if we go, in case there is an ambush ......"

Pound's expression was pale, and he reminded him when he looked at Ma Chao's face.

Once bitten by a snake, he was afraid of the well rope for ten years.

In the battle of Kunshan, Wei Shi set up an ambush in advance and knocked out most of his arrogance, and now when he heard that Wei Shi put the location of the battle in Yaoguan, Pang De beat a drum in his heart.

"Ambush, what am I Ma Chao afraid of, Wang Fang and Lu Meng set up an ambush in Chang'an back then, and they were broken by me with one blow, Guo Yuan, Gao Gan, and Hu Chuquan set up an ambush in Pingyang, and they were also defeated by me."

"Wei Shi's skills are more powerful than Guo Yuan, Gao Gan, and Hu Chuquan, the Xiongnu Zuoxian King?"

"Ling Ming, you just lost once, how can you lose your confidence, can't you go on like this?" Ma Chaohu's eyes widened, and he stared at Pang De, who bowed his head and was silent, and said that he would get up.

"If you're afraid, then Ma Dai and I will go to the pass, and you will take your troops to meet you in Lantian."

"If you see the sound of the arrow, it will be a turn of face, you will lead the crowd to kill the general, we will surround it in one fell swoop, and annihilate Wei Shi."
