Ma Chao waved his hand to let go of the two sergeants' favored hands, and said, "Mrs. Guo can't use Mr.'s strategy, it's Mrs. Guo who is stupid, so that there will be a big defeat in the snow tonight." Since my husband can see through my scheme, he must be very clever. Mr. does not give up, I take Mr. as a long history, if what? ”

Full of favor was already dead to Mrs. Guo, and seeing that Ma Chao was so respectful, he actually gave him the position of Changshi easily, and immediately was overjoyed, bowed respectfully, and said: "Pet, meet the lord!" ”

Ma Chao hurriedly dismounted, helped Man Zhong up from the ground, and said, "I still have a father, far away in Liangzhou." Sir, you may address me as the Young Master. ”

Man Zhong nodded and said, "Young master." ”

Man Zhong looked behind him, Bai Bojun and his family members had fled without a trace, and said, "The young master could have taken the opportunity to pursue Bai Bojun, why did he stop?" ”

Ma Chao shook his head and said, "The reason why the Bai Bo army rebelled was because they didn't have enough to eat, and they were not at fault. I want to force them down, I don't want to kill too much. ”

Full of admiration said: "The young master is really kind-hearted!" The subordinates happened to be close friends with Xu Huang, the general of the Baibo Army, and if the young master had an order, the subordinates were willing to persuade Xu Huang to surrender and be under the command of the young master. The young master also fought with him, and knew that this Xu Huang was a fierce general. And Xu Huang is also brave and strategic, good at using soldiers, if he can follow the young master, he will be a big help for the young master. ”

When Ma Chao heard this, he was even more happy, he got a full favor, and he could also get Xu Huang by the way, this is a buy one get one free discount!

Ma Chao was overjoyed and said, "Since that's the case, then please sir." ”

Full of pets said: "Don't dare." Young master, this retreat of the Baibo army will inevitably flee back to its old nest, Baibo Valley. The White Wave Army established a camp in the White Wave Valley, which was called 'White Wave Fortress'. Because it is in the middle of the White Wave Valley, it is very dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. I'm afraid it won't be easy to make a forced landing. ”

Ma Chao said: "The White Polish Army has lost more than half, so there is no need to worry. Tomorrow I will lead my army to surround Bai Bo Lei. ”

Ma Chao saw that it was already early in the morning, so he sent one to collect the horses and weapons scattered on the battlefield, and one to capture Dong Zhuojun's camp, and led the army back to Linfen City.

In this battle, Dong Zhuojun lost 10,000 cavalry, only 3,000 cavalry remained, and he fled without a trace; The White Polish army lost 14,000 men, and only 20,000 defeated troops remained, and fled to the White Wave Fortress; Yu Fuluo, the right virtuous king of the Huns, also had only 7,000 horsemen left.

And the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, because they were pursuing from beginning to end, the Baibo Army, the Hun Cavalry, and Dong Zhuo's Army did not dare to fight back, so the losses of soldiers and horses were very small and negligible. Being able to rely on minor casualties in exchange for heavy losses from three enemy armies, Ma Chao was ecstatic. Jia Xu's murder plan with a knife is really vicious!

In the end, more than 4,000 war horses lost by Dong Zhuojun and the Hun cavalry were obtained, and weapons and armor were not counted. What pleases Ma Chao the most is that he has been fully favored, this cool official of the Legalist family who is proficient in how to deal with the big family. In the future, if he wants to open a knife on the family, he can get a lot of lessons and strategies from Manzhong, and it will be much easier. Moreover, Manzhong is still Xu Huang's old friend, Cao Cao sent Manzhong to persuade Xu Huang to let Xu Huang return to his heart and get Xu Huang's loyalty.

Xu Huang is one of the five good generals, and Cao Cao has contributed to many major battles. Xu Huang's most famous battle was to relieve the siege of Fancheng, which curbed the momentum of Guan Yu's march to Xudu. If you get full favor, you can harvest Xu Huang, and Ma Chao can't help but look forward to it even more.

After the whole army entered the city, the sergeants were a little tired. Ma Chao arranged for the troops to defend the city, and ordered the troops to rest. When he returned to the shogunate, both Jia Xu and Koji Yoshishi were waiting for him.

Koji Yi anxiously asked, "Young Master, how was the result of the battle?" ”

Ma Chao couldn't help but give Jia Xu a thumbs up, and said with a smile: "Wenhe's clever plan, the three armies are broken, and our army's casualties are slight, which is equivalent to a person scratching his skin, so don't worry." ”

Jia Xu bowed humbly and said: "Although there is a plan, it is also the young master's proper command, and he bravely kills the enemy, and he does not dare to take credit." ”

Ma Chao waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't shirk, you have a great merit, a reward of ten gold, and three hundred silks." ”

Jia Xu thanked him: "Thank you, young master." ”

Just as Ma Chao announced the rewards for the other generals, Cai Yan's voice came from outside the door: "General, you won?" ”

Ma Chao turned around and saw that Cai Yan was outside the door, and Ma Chao smiled proudly: "Of course." I have not tasted a single defeat since I was in the army. The rabble of the White Polish Army and the Hun cavalry, why bother? ”

Cai Yan came here to worry about Ma Chao's injury, but seeing that Ma Chao had nothing to do, and had achieved a big victory, he said happily: "That's good, the little girl is also happy for the general!" ”

Seeing Cai Yan coming, Jia Xu glanced at Pang De, Zhang Xiu and others, and retreated silently.

Ma Chao said a little strangely: "It's so late, why hasn't the girl slept yet?" ”

Cai Yan didn't want to say that she had been scared of Ma Chao, so she stayed awake all night, and in a hurry, she said: "Oh, the shouts and killings outside the city resounded in Linfen City, and the little girl couldn't sleep." ”

Ma Chao said: "Girl, don't worry, the Baibo Army has already returned to the Baibo Valley, so you don't have to be afraid in the future." ”

Cai Yan nodded and responded: "Hmm." ”

Ma Chao remembered that he would lead the army to surround Baibo Valley tomorrow, and he was not in the city, and he felt a little lonely. Ma Chao said: "Oh yes, tomorrow I will lead the army out of the city and continue to fight with the enemy." I can't study with the girl anymore, so forgive me. ”

Cai Yan was a little disappointed when she heard this, but she still pretended to be calm and said, "Well, the general's battle is important, and the little girl knows." ”

Seeing that Cai Yan did not fluctuate, Ma Chao felt a little lost in his heart.

At the same time, the two of them, who felt lost, suddenly had nothing to say and fell into silence.

Ma Chao hurriedly broke the silence and said, "It's so late, the girl should go back and rest early!" ”

Cai Yan also felt the embarrassment of the silence just now, and said, "Well, the general, please rest early." The little girl is in Linfen City, waiting to hear the general's good news. ”

Ma Chao nodded, and Cai Yan left.

Looking at the beautiful back, Ma Chao sighed and went back to rest. Lying on the bed, Ma Chao thought to himself, it seems that they have known each other for too short a time, so the two have not been close enough. The embarrassing incident that happened before is still between the two, forming a barrier. It will take time for this gap to be bridged. But Ma Chao thought again, Bai Bojun was about to be pacified, and he was going to enter Beijing next; As for Cai Yan, he was bent on following Cai Yong to Shuofang County, the place of exile. Heaven is on the other side, how to cultivate feelings and eliminate estrangement?

But that's how things went. What can I do?

Thinking about it, a sense of exhaustion came up, his eyelids fought, and Ma Chao fell asleep.
