Chapter 345 Ma Chao Pound

"Liangzhou Ma Chao?" Liu Qi looked at the messenger in surprise. The soldiers in Liangzhou came so fast.

"Exactly, the Liangzhou Ma Chao has led 5,000 Liangzhou soldiers and horses to the vicinity of Yangping Pass. The general did not dare to make his own decision and asked Lord Zhou Mu to make a decision." The messenger said cautiously.

Seeing that the messenger said this, the people in the hall were relieved, especially Zhang Lu, who had just sweated coldly. He was really afraid that his brother would do something irrational.

"Lord, this Liangzhou soldiers and horses were invited by their subordinates. Originally, they wanted to resist the master. Now that Hanzhong is already under the rule of the lord, it is better not to let them enter Hanzhong." Zhang Lu stepped forward and bowed.

"Lord, the people in Liangzhou are very strong, and Ma Chao is even more hot-tempered. If he knows that he has been cheated, he may be very likely to attack Yangping Pass. If so, it will easily lead to the war between Liangzhou and Hanzhong, which can't be prevented." Yanpu beside Zhang Lu bowed forward and said.

Since Zhang Lu returned to Jingzhou, Yanpu no longer spoke coldly to Liu Qi, but took the initiative to call Liu Qi the lord.

"What should you do according to your opinion?" Liu Qi looked at Yanpu and said.

"Lord, the reason why Liangzhou soldiers and horses came to Hanzhong this time is for the grain and fodder in Hanzhong. They only need to send someone to send some grain and fodder in Liangzhou and then tell him about Hanzhong. I don't think he will probably stay here for a long time, but in case the lord still sends a general to guard Yangping Pass." Yanpu bowed.

Liu Qi shook his head and didn't say anything. Since Ma Chao was grumpy, he could not look at him with ordinary eyes. This Ma Chao teenager became famous and was very famous in Liangzhou and other places. If he was given food and fodder so easily, maybe he would say that Jingzhou looked down on him, and it would be better to take advantage of it.

"You immediately go to Yangping Pass and tell Ma Chao about Hanzhong, and say that if he is willing to lead troops to help me recover Shangyong County in Jingzhou, Hanzhong will also provide him with food and fodder in the next few years."

"No." Yanpu's heart moved and figured out Liu Qi's intention. People like Ma Chao will care more about this. Attacking Shangyong is much simpler than attacking Hanzhong, but this gives Liangzhou a step.

"Can there be any news from Yizhou?" Liu Qi turned his head and looked at Wei Yan and others.

"Not yet, but I think there will be news back in the next two days." Wei Yan arched his hand.

............................................................................................................

Yangping Pass, in the past two days, Zhang Wei and Yang Ang have tried their best to delay the time and keep the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou outside the gate. However, with the delay of time, Ma Chao has reached the edge of the outbreak. If he can't find an excuse, Ma Chao is likely to be angry.

"General, Mr. Yanpu is here." At this moment, a young general ran in.

"Mr. Yanpu is here." Zhang Wei and the other two were overjoyed.

"What? Is it possible that you don't welcome me?" Yanpu's voice came in.

"Ah?" Both Zhang Wei looked at Yanpu who appeared in the room in surprise.

"How come?" Zhang Wei laughed.

"What decision did Mr. Yanpu make when he came here?" Zhang Wei came forward.

"Yes, the master has made a decision." Yanpu smiled and said.

"What's the reaction of Liangzhou soldiers and horses in the past two days?" Yanpu put away his smile and looked at Zhang Wei. At this time, it was not the time to chat. It was better to wait for a while.

"Sir, Ma Chao is about to be angry at this time. If he is dragging on, he is likely to vent his anger on Hanzhong." Yang Ang said with a wry smile.

"In that case, I'd better meet Ma Chao as soon as possible." Yanpu nodded.

"Sir, please." Yang Ang arched his hand.

Not long after, Yang Ang took Yanpu out of the city gate, but Zhang Wei stayed on the tower and looked nervously at the people who came out of the city.

"Can there be any news from Hanzhong?" In the big account, a young man in brocade clothes coldly looked out of the door. The young man was in his twenties and had a luxurious atmosphere all over his body, but his eyebrows were like brewing a storm.

"Major General, the news just came that Zhang Lu in Hanzhong has defected to Liu Qi in Jingzhou, and now Hanzhong has fallen into the hands of Jingzhou."

"Huh! That Zhang Lu is really a waste. He lost Hanzhong in such a short time. If he had invited me earlier, he might have kicked Jingzhou soldiers and horses out of Hanzhong. Ma Chao said coldly.

"The young general, there is an envoy from Hanzhong outside asking for a meeting."

"Let him in." Ma Chao was stunned and immediately said.

"Major General, Hanzhong is already under the rule of Liu Qi in Jingzhou. It seems that we have been here for nothing this time." Far from Ma Chao, a young man of the same age as Ma Chao said that this person was Pound.

"Huh, is it a waste of time? If Zhang Lu doesn't send the promised grain and fodder for a day, I won't retreat for a day. I'll see if the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou are so powerful as rumored. Ma Chao snorted coldly. At this time, even if he went back, if he didn't borrow food and grass, someone would say that if he could not rescue, it would lead to the loss of Hanzhong.

While the two were talking, Yanpu and Yang Ang came in under the leadership of the scout.

"I've met the major general." Yanpu and the two of them bowed.

"Who are you?" Ma Chao looked at Yanpu impatiently.

"I came to discuss with the young general under the order of the lord in Yanpu."

"Oh? What's the matter? At this time, Hanzhong has fallen into the hands of Jingzhou. Did Liu Qi send you here? Ma Chao asked.

"The major general has really known that. Yes, he came to discuss important matters with the major general by the order of Liu Qi, the Mu of Jingzhou." Yanpu Dao.

"What do you want to say?" Ma Chao looked at Yanpu in surprise.

"Ha ha, the major general rushed to Hanzhong. I didn't expect that the matter of Hanzhong had been understood, but the major general's coming to Hanzhong should be for the matter of grain and grass. My lord has said that if the young general can help our army take Shangyong County, the weight of grain and grass will increase by 30% on the original basis. I don't know the major general. What does the army think? Yanpu arched his hands.

"I don't think so? Then Liu Qi had a good calculation and let me have a bad relationship with Cao Cao, but you, Jingzhou, can reap the benefits of the fisherman. Ma Chao said coldly.

"Ha ha, the young general's foresight. Yes, this matter can indeed make Liangzhou and Cao Cao evil, but your father and Cao Cao are incompatible. The last time your father was almost killed by Cao Cao in Xudu. Since the Lord recovered Hanzhong, Shangyong and other places may recover at any time. The reason why he handed over this matter to the major general is that he doesn't want the young general to go for nothing this time. The young general can not only breathe a breath for your father, but also let Liangzhou's food and fodge develop rapidly. This matter is a matter of two benefits. Please ask the major general to think about it again. Yanpu arched his hands.

"Major General, this matter is indeed beneficial to my Liangzhou." Pound stood up and arched his hand.

"In this case, in the words of your lord, but the importance of grain and grass is increasing by 50%." Ma Chao nodded and said that he also knew that he had occupied Jingzhou in Hanzhong. It was just a matter of a finger to recover Shangyong. The reason why Jingzhou did this was just to make friends with Liangzhou.

"In this way, I will go back to the lord. If the young general wants to fight for Shangyong, he can leave at any time." Yanpu arched his hands.

Ma Chao waved his hand and did not send it off. Instead, Pound got up to see him off.

"This Ma Chao is not as hot-tempered as the rumored one." Yanpu shook his head.

"Yes, I thought he would be unfavorable to him, but I didn't expect that he had known about Hanzhong for a long time. It seems that I really underestimated him before." Yang Ang shook his head.

"Okay, let's go back to Nanzheng and show it to the lord." Yanpu nodded.

"Major General, an increase of 30% is enough for my use in Liangzhou. Why increase it by 50%?" Pound frowned and said.

"It's nothing. I just want to try Jingzhou's attitude. I didn't expect that he agreed by 50%. It seems that Jingzhou is either busy with something to do, or he really doesn't want to have a bad relationship with my Liangzhou." Ma Chaodao.

"As far as I know, Jingzhou's attack on Hanzhong is divided into two ways. Liu Qi has occupied Hanzhong, but there is no news about Zhuge Liang's soldiers and horses. It seems that there is something wrong with Zhuge Liang's soldiers and horses all the way." Pound pondered for a moment.

"Oh, if you don't tell me, I forgot that most of Cao Cao's current soldiers and horses are facing Yuan Shao. If it is easy for Jingzhou to recover the mediocrity, it will definitely not be remembered until after the capture of Hanzhong. If it is well expected, there should be something wrong with the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou in Yizhou, and it is likely to be Cao Cao. The people under his hands are the devil." Ma Chao smiled and said.

"The young general is wise, but when we enter Hanzhong, these things will naturally be easily discovered." Pound Road.

"You immediately send someone to Shangyong to find out the news to see if Shangyong's Cao Ren is on guard." Ma Chao said.

"Haive prisons have been captured by General Gan?" In the sword pavilion, Zhao Yun looked at the dragon guard in front of him with a surprised face.

"It is that now that the messenger sent by General Gan is outside the Sword Pavilion, the general should pick them up as soon as possible. I think General Gan will definitely lead troops to help after handling the matter of Bailao guan."

"Okay, you open the door immediately with a warrant." With that, Zhao Yun took out a bamboo slip from his arms and gave it to the young general. This bamboo slip had been prepared by Zhao Yun for a long time.

"No."

Watching the Flying Dragon Guard leave, Zhao Yun turned around and came to a barracks, where Wu Yi was locked up.

"What's the matter with General Zhao coming here?" Wu Yi took a look at Zhao Yundao.

"Naturally, I need the help of General Wu." Zhao Yundao.

"But what did the soldiers in the Sword Pavilion find? Ha ha, I think General Zhao should lead his soldiers out of the Sword Pavilion as soon as possible. Maybe he can preserve his strength." Wu Yi said with a smile.

"Well, if it weren't for the 10,000 soldiers and horses in this sword pavilion, General Wu would have thought that 10,000 people could live to this day?" Zhao Yun snorted coldly.

"Uh..." Wu Yi was stunned and then woke up. As Zhao Yun said, although these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are a little defensive at this time, how can they resist the sneak attack of the Flying Dragon Guard? If the Flying Dragon Guard poisons the food and water, it is likely to block all ten thousand people.

"I hope that General Wu will write a warrant. In the next three days, the gate of the Sword Pavilion will be guarded by the Flying Dragon Guard." Zhao Yundao.

"But Jingzhou's reinforcements have arrived?" Wu Yi said in his heart.

Zhao Yun smiled and said no.
