The so-called, uncle, uncle, season, young.

It is rumored that the five constants of Ma's ... Ji and Bo are the longest, ahh It is the five constants of the Ma family, and the white eyebrows are the best.

Guan Lin and Lu Xun's conversation, standing outside the door, all listened to the ears of the four sons of the Ma family, the longest and the best - Ma Liang Ma Ji Chang!

Speaking of which, he was originally ordered by Guan Yu to come here... Tell Guan Lin in detail about the situation on the front-line battlefields in Xuchang, Wancheng, and Xiangfan.

This includes the Shuishui Villa, including the military and combat preparations, including the strategic depth, including the movement against the Wei Dynasty, the location of the troops, the reserve of grain and grass, and the spread of air-raid shelters.

There are all kinds of things, all of which are preparations for the future, to cooperate with Bashu's expedition to Hanzhong, and Jingzhou and Jiangdong to go north together.

If it were someone else, there would be no way to explain it clearly, and it was precisely because of this that Ma Liang came, and because of the relationship between Ma Liang and Guan Lin, he entered this government office without having to report it... Shiwu didn't take it seriously.

Can... However, just a quarter of an hour has passed, and I don't know what happened to Ma Liang, in Shiwu's eyes, he actually fell to the ground with his legs because of the violent stumbling.

His face was as white as paper, and it was hard to see the extreme... It's as if the sky suddenly came down.

"Uncle Ma?"

Guan Lin pushed open the door and blurted out in surprise when he saw that it was Ma Liang.

When Ma Liang raised his eyes and looked at Guan Lin, he seemed to suddenly see a beam of light in the dark night, and he grabbed Guan Lin's thigh, as if he wanted to firmly grasp hope.

"If so... If..."Ma Liang's tone stumbled, "If it's really Jia Xu in Yangping Pass, my younger brother is extremely conceited... How could he be Jia Xu's opponent? He... His life is in danger, his life is in danger... Cloud flags, cloud flags..."

Ma Liang's arms grabbed Guan Lin's thighs and worked harder.

He said blankly, sadly, and in fear: "Yunqi, since you know all this, and you have counted all this, then... Then you must have a way to save my little brother... Save my little brother! Cloud Flag... I beg you, save him... Save him! You alone can save his dog's life... Dog life! ”

This...

Ma Liang's extremely sincere words made Guan Lin a little moved, in fact... If there was no Ma Liang, Liu Feng and Ma Yan's deaths, Guan Lin would not blink his eyes and raise his eyebrows.

The former is because of Liu Feng's existence... It is a threat to Guan Lin's disciple Liu Chan, who was finally enlightened, and it is also a huge threat to the revival of the Han Dynasty.

The latter is because of... Guan Lin has always had no good impression of him, thinking that he is exaggerating and not dancing.

Rather than keep it and exist as a hidden danger of Shu Han anytime and anywhere, it is better to... Disappear, destroy... The soul is completely scattered, and Guan Lin of the province is worried about it.

In fact, Ma Jian in history still has some credit, such as... Dingnan barbarian Meng won and put forward the strategy of "attacking the heart", which led to the deeds of Zhuge Liangqi capturing Meng.

And his biggest black spot is conceit, it is the failure of the street guarding pavilion, which led to Zhuge Liang's most promising Northern Expedition, a situation that is not easy to earn, overnight... Go up in smoke.

Of course, Zhuge Liang tried to send Ma Tan to guard the street pavilion against public opinion, but this failed... And for his sake.

But... According to the order of cultivation of the successors of the Jingzhou faction, under the premise that Ma Liang died in advance, Zhuge Liang focused on training, and the only one who guarded the street pavilion was Ma Yan!

All it can be said is... The tragedy of Ma Tan in history was caused by the current situation, and God did not help the Han family.

Of course, none of this matters.

The important thing is that now Ma Liang is kneeling on the ground, holding his Guan Lin's thighs, looking at Ma Liang's expectant eyes, that full of "brotherly love" look, Guan Lin just wants to refuse... How do you speak?

That's it!

It can only be said that he is lucky!

… There is such a brother.

It's just, even if you want to save Ma Tan... For the current Guan Lin, it is not easy, unless...

Thinking of this, Guan Lin opened his mouth and said, "Master Ma, hurry up... The defeat of your brother Ma Jian and Liu Feng is because they did not see the situation clearly, it is the situation that dictates it, and it is also forced by the general trend... In my opinion, they must be quite embarrassed to win the first battle now, right? It's just that... I'm afraid this will not last long. ”

"Cloud Banner... The relationship between you and me, the relationship between your father and me, don't mention those polite and vain words, as long as you can save the life of my stupid brother, then you are the great benefactor of my Ma family..."

Ma Liang's tone was as hopeful as ever.

On the other hand, Guan Lin, after smacking his mouth, slowly opened his mouth: "Now if you want to save Ma Yan, the actions on the battlefield can no longer make up for it, and you can only start from the inside of the reverse Wei... I have to find a way to make Cao Cao think that this Ma Jian is alive than dead... The effect is even greater! I also have to make Ma Jian realize that the road in front of him... All that's left, the last one! ”

Not...

Guan Lin blurted out this, Ma Liangyou was confused, but Lu Xun suddenly opened his eyes, and he thought of something.

And Guan Lin's voice continued, "Master Ma, now... I need you to write a letter to Ma Yan! Be sure to persuade him to 'surrender' against Wei! ”

Yes...

Under Guan Lin's earth-shattering words, Ma Liang's pupils widened.

He couldn't believe it... Guan Lin's meaning turned out to be - "Surrender to Cheng" against Wei?

So... The problem?

How to surrender?

True Surrender? Or is it a fake surrender?

…

…

The blood-colored remnant sun filled the sky, and it also dyed the battlefield under Yangping Pass red.

The offensive and defensive battles continue here...

The entire Yangping Pass was covered with black-pressed soldiers, surging as quickly as a tide, accompanied by hoarse shouts, climbing towards the city pass without hesitation.

On the other hand, Yangping closes... Stones roared down like a torrential rain, and arrows flew in the air.

The fearless soldiers of the Wei army had bloody faces, their eyes revealing the heroic spirit of fighting to the death, and they kept waving bloody blades in their hands.

Just now, the city has experienced a short knife encounter, a large number of soldiers fell in a pool of blood, and someone behind him raised his knife to go up, the sound of fighting and the sound of Jin Ge resounded through the world, full of corpses and a sea of blood, which made people feel creepy.

"Stomp, stomp..."

The footsteps of the infantry were unusually crisp, this was a Zhang He's soldiers and horses, they arrived late, but when they arrived at the head of the city... Raise your eyes and look down.

The endless battlefield is like a hell on earth, and the air is filled with a disgusting smell of blood.

The smoke of gunpowder drifted in the air, and the blazing fire reflected the sky in a blood-red color...

The bloodied soldiers were engaged in a last-ditch fight, slashing with knives and beastly roars rolling out of their throats.

"Is the fight so intense?"

Zhang He couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, although he broke an arm, maybe he broke a lot in martial arts, but the command was not affected, so... He was confident that his gallop with this cadre of infantry would be enough to stabilize the situation at Yangping Pass.

Enemy... Can't get in!

Who would have thought... Just when Zhang He was about to order the whole army to rush to help.

Cao Zhenshen mysteriously succeeded to the throne and came cautiously.

Zhang He asked curiously, "General Zidan?" Can you still walk around like this? ”

"Afraid of what?" Cao Zhen asked rhetorically, and then said with a smile: "This Yangping Pass is guarded by my uncle Xiahou, don't say it's just Liu Feng, even Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, and the big-eared thief will attack it in person, and it will not be so easy to attack!" ”

Speaking of this, Cao Zhen added, and his tone suddenly became a little more determined: "General Junyi, there is a great merit in front of you now, which is enough to make up for your guilt in losing the land of Samba in the first place... You can also snow the shame of a broken arm... The younger generation asked General Jun Yi whether he wanted to do it or not? ”

This...

Cao Zhen's words made Zhang He pause, Zhang He looked at this erosive battlefield, and said eagerly: "When is this heaven, you Cao Zidan are still playing tricks?" What do you want me to do? ”

"Ming Xiu plank road... Darkness Chencang! Cao Zhen's eyes were blazing, "This Ma Jian is to emulate Han Xin, one of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty, but it's a pity... His plan to attack Yangping Pass and secretly capture Dingjun Mountain has been seen through by Mr. Jia, and now... That Ma Tan is also rushing to Dingjun Mountain to occupy the high ground, and I have arranged for soldiers and horses to ambush in Yangtianwa under Dingjun Mountain. ”

Not...

These words came out of Cao Zhen's mouth, Zhang He's eyes changed when he looked at him again, he was good at "clever change", knowing all the changes in this art of war, thinking a little, and also passing the whole situation in his mind again, and finally... He couldn't help but chant "Ming attack Yangping Pass, secretly take Dingjun Mountain, what a strategy..."

Speaking of this, he raised his voice and asked Cao Zhen seriously, "Zidan, I only ask you, is it you who want me to support the army?" Or Mr. Wenhe. ”

"That's Mr. Wenhe..."

With Cao Zhen's last sentence.

"Good!" Zhang He seemed to have finally made a decision, and he directly ordered the soldiers and horses behind him, "There is no need to gallop to this Yangping Pass, the generals will go to Dingjun Mountain with me, go... Go and capture that Liu Bei's fake son alive! ”

It's like... The weight of Jia Xu Jia Wen and this name is extremely heavy, at least in Zhang He's mind... It's worth the gamble!

"But General...," a lieutenant general asked, "then how do you explain to General Xiahou..."

"Just say it's Mr. Jia's orders!" Zhang He replied casually: "If what I expected is true, General Xiahou... I'm also waiting for Mr. Jia to make a move! ”

…

…

- "Report, the battle at Yangping Pass is fierce, and General Wu Yi specially asked to report the battle damage, saying that more than 6,000 soldiers have been lost... The damage of the enemy army is also heavy! ”

- "Report, none of the twelve hills, including Dingjun Mountain, found the ambush of the Wei army, and even Cao Xiu and his soldiers and horses, who were originally stationed here, retreated to Yangping Pass half a day ago to participate in the offensive and defensive battles of Yangping Pass!" ”

A series of two pieces of information came to the ears of Liu Feng and Ma Yan.

Liu Feng hurriedly turned his head to look at Ma Yan, and he sighed with emotion: "This is all General Wu Yi's blood... For every additional soldier killed, there will be one less soldier for him and Li Yanshangshu's Dongzhou soldiers and horses... This cannot be added! ”

Liu Feng is telling the truth...

Having said that, now he Liu Feng can rely on one is the soldiers and horses he pulled from Jingzhou, these southern and northern battles are the divisions of a hundred battles, and they are also his descendants, and they can die for him.

The other is more than 20,000 Dongzhou soldiers under Li Yan and Wu Yi.

Considering that Liu Bei is now in Shu, it is Zhuge Liang and Fa Zheng who are responsible for recruiting, training, and governing the army.

So...

On Liu Feng's way to compete for the prince, Li Yan and Wu Yi's soldiers and horses... Each one is precious.

Hearing what Liu Feng meant, Ma Yan paused.

It's just that his eyes were as firm as ever, and he said seriously, "General Wu Yi's sacrifice is worth it... Now, Yangping Pass is in an emergency, and Cao Xiu is also sure that we are not familiar with this mountain road, and we dare not venture into this Dingjun Mountain, so... Withdraw all the enemy troops in the Bashan Mountains, this is a great fighter for us! We only need to cross Dingjun Mountain, bypass Yangping Pass, and attack Hanzhong from the back, then this Hanzhong battle... It's a matter of time! ”

Speaking of this, Ma Yan's tone became more determined, "General... The success or failure of Hanzhong, your success or failure... Now, it's all up to you. ”

This...

Liu Feng only hesitated for a short time, his heart was crossed, and then with a "whoosh", the sword was unsheathed.

"Pass my military order, immediately kill to Dingjun Mountain, the whole army is up and down, only forward, not backward——"

"Breaking the enemy and making meritorious contributions is in this dynasty, all the sons and daughters, follow me to rush to the Dingjun Mountain, and kill with me-"

Rouse...

Because of Ma Yan's analysis, because of Liu Feng's shout!

This army of a hundred battles brought from Jingzhou suddenly became invigorated.

——Breaking the enemy and making meritorious contributions, right now!

…

…

The third mountain in the Bashan Mountains is also the highest at the foot of Dingjun Mountain.

Jia Xu came to Yangtianwa here in a carriage, and his eldest son, Jia Mu, who was the captain of the Great Wei Dynasty, and Jia Ji, who was the second son of the army, both looked up at the peaks on both sides with a little awe.

Jia Xu looked at the Yangtianwa in front of him: "This is really a good place for military training by the mountains and rivers!" ”

Indeed, as Jia Xu sighed, the Yangtianwa described in the history books can garrison tens of thousands of soldiers, and it is also the most important place to garrison and train troops during Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition in history.

Of course, none of this matters...

Just after Jia Xu sighed.

"Newspaper-" A soldier quickly reported: "Liu Feng's soldiers and horses are galloping towards this side..."

This...

Hearing this report, Jia Mu and Jia Ji were both startled.

In stark contrast to the worries of his two sons, Jia Xu's expression remained the same, and he just asked lightly, "Did they find us?" ”

"No," the soldier said truthfully, "Their detailed work was only a detailed exploration of the twelve peaks, including Dingjun Mountain, and they did not stay in the Yangtian Depression, let alone a detailed investigation..."

"Heh..."

Hearing this, Jia Xu laughed lightly, "After all, it's a young man, impetuous and impetic, and earnest for meritorious service... At the same time, time is pressing, it is impossible to check carefully, and this... That's exactly why he was doomed! ”

Speaking of this, Jia Xu added a little emotion, and then asked his two sons, "I asked you to bury more dry firewood and other fire-starting things here?" But are they all buried? ”

"Buried...," said the eldest son, Jamu, "The fire is together, leaving only one road in Dingjun Mountain... The enemy army is bound to be trapped in the mountains by us, but... Our soldiers and horses can only defend the road down the mountain on this side, how to guard the road down the mountain on the other side? ”

His son Jamu's words were blurted out.

"Report..."Another fast horse came over, and when he saw Jia Xu, the knight hurriedly turned over and dismounted, "Mr. Jia, General Cao Zhen asked me to tell you that General Cao Xiu and General Zhang He's soldiers and horses have been combined in one place, just at the entrance of the Bashan Mountain Range, all at the dispatch of Mr. Jia!" ”

The knight's words... It seemed to be a direct response to Jamu's question.

Jia Xu didn't take it to heart, he smiled and said, "What is not dispatched, now we... It's to catch turtles in the urn, and it's also to besiege the mountains to send reinforcements... Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang should be the ones who are more worried than us! ”

This said... It's like a direct reply...

It's like a direct order!

The second son, Jia Ji, asked excitedly: "Dad... Do you say that Liu Feng and Ma Jian were really forced to Dingjun Mountain? ”

Jia Xu chanted four words leisurely, "Nine out of ten!" ”

…

…

Jiang Xia, An Lucheng, and the brush in Ma Liang's hand finally stopped.

The ink leaves its last deep trail on the white paper.

He put down his pen wearily, and his eyes fell on the letter he had just written. Every word in the letter was like blood dripping from his heart, carrying his deep concern and helplessness for his younger brother Ma Yan.

"Ugh..."

With a long sigh, Ma Liang's expression was extremely painful, his eyes were full of powerlessness, he knew that this letter could not save Ma Tan, and the words in the letter, no matter how sincere and affectionate, could not change Ma Tan's current situation. The only one who can save Ma Jian is himself.

Only he... own resolutions.

"Surrender" against Wei is destined to be a more difficult and dangerous road... But now, whether it is his younger brother Ma Jian or his Ma Liang, it is their Ma family... Both, I don't have a choice!

"Where is the prince of Yunqi? Leading the way... I'll go and give him the letter..."

Ma Liang asked the servant beside him.

The servant bowed his hand, and then walked ahead.

The two of them walked to the official office together, and they didn't knock on the door... I could only hear the voices inside.

"Yunqi, wouldn't this be too risky? Although Ma Liangjun loves his brother very much, he must protect Ma Liang... It's not easy, and it's even very likely that your layout in the reverse Wei will be leaked, so it's not beautiful. ”

This is Lu Xun's voice...

It seems that Lu Xun is skeptical about Guan Lin being forced by Ma Liang's plea to save Ma Jian and let Ma Jian devote himself to the rebellion against Wei.

He felt... If it's just for the sake of a horse, then... It's not worth it.

On the other hand, Guan Lin's answer was..."I don't need to mention this matter again... Ma Jian is just stupid, just arrogant, not bad... It's not infidelity either! I didn't want to save him, I just gave him a choice, so that he could choose to give himself a chance! ”

Just like Li Lian in the past, Guan Xing in the past, Guan Lin is willing to give them a chance... As for whether you can grasp it, this... It's up to them.

Having said that, Guan Lin said this casually, and he didn't expect Ma Liang to be outside the door.

But in Ma Liang's ears, it moved him for a while.

As the servant knocked on the door, Ma Liang entered, his eyes a little evasive, obviously... I'm embarrassed...

After hesitating for a long time, he chanted.

"Cloud Banner, letter..."

"Don't worry, Master Ma, I will spare no effort if I can do it..."Guan Lin took the letterhead and replied.

Ma Liang still didn't dare to raise his head, he bowed respectfully to Guan Lin... Then he turned around, but as soon as he stepped over the threshold, he stepped back again, and then gave it again solemnly.

But he still didn't say a word...

It's all in plain sight!

…

…

- "The front is to look up to the sky, and Dingjun Mountain is used to climb the mountain!" ”

When Liu Feng and Ma Tan's soldiers and horses marched to the "Yangtianwa", the "guide" began to report.

Ma Yanle stopped his horse, looked up and observed the mountain road of Dingjun Mountain and the valley, the mountain road was silent, and it was very quiet... On the contrary, there is something strange in this valley.

The trees are rattling, and there is some dry firewood in the grass house... I can't hide it at all.

Ma Tan asked, "Exploring the horse?" Have you explored here? ”

"Not really!" Tanma responded: "The general and the military advisor only said that they would explore twelve mountains, the time is tight and the task is heavy, so we galloped all the way and did not stay too long in this deep depression..."

This...

An ominous premonition suddenly rose in Ma Tan's heart.

Seeing this, Liu Feng drove his horse to Ma Yan's side, "Young Chang? How? ”

Ma Tan suddenly clenched his teeth, he looked at the mountain road vigilantly, and also looked around at the sky... After a few moments, he exclaimed, "Oh no! General, we must retreat—"

As he spoke, he quickly turned his head and looked vigilantly at the intersection where he came...

Who would have thought, just as his words fell.

"Put..."

A burst of vicissitudes echoed through the hollow, and then countless flutes rushed into the sky, a mournful chirp, and then... Suddenly the screams in the valley shook the sky, and countless boulders, rolling logs, and fireballs smashed down from the mountain peaks!

"I've been tricked... I've been tricked..."

Ma Jian roared hoarsely, but at this moment, a huge fireball rolled down, and the horse was frightened and rose backwards, and Ma Jian was directly thrown off the horse... The firewood and grass in these places were ignited by the fireballs, and walls of fire were instantly raised, completely and completely enveloping the invading Shu army in it...

"Shoot the arrows—"

"Shoot the arrows—"

With two crisp sounds, the hollow echoed again... Countless rockets burst into the air.

On the other hand, there was already a little more despair in Ma Yan's eyes!
