Chapter 411 Negotiation
"Ignite and send a signal." Hearing Lv Bu's words, Ma Chao was confused and heard Zhang Liao preach to the soldiers behind him.
With Zhang Liao's order, the soldiers behind him hurriedly lit a firewood fire. A flame rose out of thin air, and then a sudden change occurred outside Lv Bu's mansion. Around Lv Bu's mansion, a team of Lv Bu's soldiers suddenly appeared in the originally quiet private house. They were like ghosts and occupied it instantly. With the favorable terrain around, these soldiers and horses were arranged by Zhang Liao early in the morning. In this way, the situation of Ma Teng's army turned sharply, and Ma Teng's army, which had already been surrounded by the Lv Bu army from the periphery, was suddenly fragmented and could not be supported.
"This? How come? Did you know early that we would launch an attack, or did someone inform you? Seeing the changes around him, Ma Chao's face suddenly turned pale. Ma Chao never thought that the carefully designed battle situation of his people was just sending sheep into the tiger's mouth.
"As long as you agree to my request just now, my words will still be counted, and these tens of thousands of soldiers who have been completely surrounded by me will also be returned to the wise brother in due course. What do you think?" Looking at Ma Chao's shocked eyes in front of him, Lv Bu said calmly.
"General, who do you think I brought here?" Before Ma Chao made up his mind, he heard a voice from the side, but Dian Wei came first, with a carriage behind him. When he got close, he saw a slim figure walking on the car, but it was Ma Yunlu.
"Yunlu? Why are you here?" Seeing Dian Wei coming with Ma Yunlu, Lv Bu didn't have time to say anything, but Ma Chao beside him had already exclaimed. Obviously, Ma Chao did not expect that Ma Yunlu would fall into the hands of Dian Wei. Since Ma Yunlu fell into the hands of Dian Wei, Ma Teng must have fallen into the hands of Dian Wei.
"Brother, this battle is over. My father has woken up. Seeing that Ma Chao and Lv Bu did not fight, Ma Yunlu was finally relieved. It seemed that things were not out of control, so he opened his lips and said to Ma Chao.
"Dad woke up? That's great." Hearing that Ma Teng had woken up, Ma Chao's ugly face finally showed a smile because of failure, but Ma Chao was not in a hurry to see Ma Teng, but threw the silver gun in his hand on the ground and punched Lv Bu and said, "General Lv Bu, I failed. I'm willing to accept any of your conditions." Obviously, Ma Chao has understood that when Ma Teng and Ma Yunlu have reached Lv Bu's hands, even if Ma Chao makes any move, it is just a mouse taboo, and there is no point in fighting any more.
"Congratulations to the general on his recovery. It seems that your family can be reunited again." Ma Chao gave up resistance, and the other Ma army naturally began to surrender one after another. At this time, Lv Bu came to Ma Teng and hugged Ma Teng and said.
"The winner is the prince and the loser is the bandit. General Lv Bu is really young and successful, and I still underestimate the general." After Ma Teng woke up, he had heard Ma Yunlu talk about the whole story. Although he felt that Ma Chao and others acted recklessly, Ma Yunlu's plan was seamless. The reason for his failure could only be said to be God's will, or his opponent was too strong, and no matter which of these two reasons was established, Ma Teng had nothing. It's easy to say that even if Ma Teng was not unconscious at that time, he would do the same as Ma Chao, and the result of that would undoubtedly end in failure.
"General Lu Bu, I don't know what you plan to do with our Ma family?" At this time, Ma Yunlu suddenly walked to Lv Bu, and his two big watery eyes stared at Lv Bu and asked pitifully.
"A man doesn't need other people's mercy when he does things. Yunlu doesn't want to lose the prestige of our Ma family." Looking at Ma Yunlu's expression of prayer, Ma Chao reprimanded. He turned to Lv Bu and said, "I, Ma Chao, work alone. If you want to kill, kill. I will never frown. However, this matter has nothing to do with my father and sister. I don't think General Lv Bu will implicate them.
"Well, this?" Originally, according to Lv Bu's plan, it was to squeeze Ma Tengjun out of the court in Chang'an and put it in Bingzhou to deal with Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao must be too powerful in Jizhou, and it was difficult for Gongsun Zan to deal with it, so Lv Bu wanted the Ma family to go to Hebei to make trouble for Yuan Shao. However, the current situation is so beneficial to him that he has taken the initiative in the struggle with the Ma family, which makes Lv Bu think greedily about whether to take the opportunity to annex the Ma family. However, the annexation of the Ma family is not without future troubles. That is, Mr. Ma Teng, who has a high prestige in the army, and Ma Teng has such a strong general like Ma Chao. At that time, it is likely to become a big faction in Lv Bu's army, but Lv Bu doesn't want to see it. Thinking of this, Lv Bu even thinks why Ma Teng is so lucky not to die under Li's poisoned arrow? If Ma Teng died, it would be much easier today.
"General, these people dare to fight against the general. I don't think there is anything to say. They killed them directly." Lv Bu was hesitating, and Zang Ba came over and said. At this time, other generals also rushed over, and even Fan Yu looked at Lv Bu in front of him. He didn't know what Lv Bu was hesitating about.
"General, let's send troops to save Your Majesty. Your Majesty was robbed by Liu Bei and others." Seeing that everyone was worried about how to deal with the affairs of the Ma family, Dian Wei reminded Lv Bu with some embarrassment. After all, Emperor Xian is in charge of Dian Wei. Now Emperor Xian has lost it, and the most urgent thing is Dian Wei.
"General Ma Chao, it's because of you at this time. It's up to you to take your soldiers and Dian Wei to save your majesty. When you finish this, I will naturally let your father and son leave. At this time, Lv Bu glanced at Ma Chao and said. Lv Bu knew the power of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Dian Wei may not be able to bring Emperor Xian back alone in the past, but it is another matter to have a horse beyond the horse. Now that the matter in Chang'an has just come to an end, Lv Bu can't leave Chang'an easily.
"General Lv Bu, don't worry, this matter started because of me, and I will naturally give the general an explanation." After saying that, Lv Bu turned his horse's head and went straight to the north gate with his own soldiers. Behind him, Dian Wei immediately led his troops to follow.
"Well, General Liu Bei is very cunning. I'll go and have a look." Seeing Ma Chao and Dian Wei beating away, Zang Ba also said with some interest. This battle was fierce, but it didn't last long. Zang Ba, a militant maniac, didn't get much battle. At this time, he naturally refused to let it go easily when he saw Ma Chao and Dian Wei leaving.
"Zhang Liao, you come to deal with the aftermath. I have something to talk about with General Ma Teng. Lv Bu nodded and let Zang Ba chase Dian Wei away, and explained that Zhang Liao dealt with the aftermath, but he walked to Ma Teng's frame and took Ma Teng and Ma Yunlu to the depths of his house.
At this time, the east has already exposed its fish belly white, and the sky that has been silent all night has also begun to light up. Ma Teng was arranged in the warm pavilion of the wing by Lv Bu. Ma Teng's body is far from replying and he can only sit in ** and let Ma Yunlu serve. Although no one opens his mouth, the atmosphere It has become cold. After all, the two families have just turned to each other, and the number of dead and injured is unknown.
"General Lv Bu, I can't wait for the prisoner. If the general has anything to say, just let me know." Ma Tengqiang supported himself and said to Lv Bu, who was sitting beside him.
"The general's words are against me. Li Yu and Guo Wei rebelled. I, Lv Bu, are far away from Liangzhou, but I spared no effort to help thousands of miles. It's just after defeating Li Yu and Guo Yan, the general is facing each other. Is this the court's way of treating meritorious officials?" After Ma Teng opened his mouth, Lv Bu said with a very innocent expression. It seems that Lv Bu doesn't have any ambition. Everything was asked by Ma Tengjun.
"I'm not feeling well. If the general has something to say, he doesn't have to beat around the bush. There are only three of us here. What can't we say? Ma Teng looked at Lv Bu contemptuously and motioned Lv Bu not to pretend, which could make Ma Teng's army lose so miserably. Ma Teng would never dare to underestimate Lv Bu any more. He would not believe that Lv Bu was really as innocent as he said.
"One mountain can't tolerate two tigers. Although Chang'an City is not small, it can't accommodate you and me. Lv Bu has no other meaning. He just wants to ask the general to give Chang'an to me." Seeing that Ma Teng did not have any humor, Lv Bu put away his playful expression and said solemnly.
"Don't call me general in the future. The defeated generals still dare to be brave. As for the matter of Chang'an, isn't Chang'an in the hands of the general now? What else does the general need to say to me?" Ma Teng laughed at himself and said to Lv Bu.
"In fact, I have already told General Ma Chao that I hope that General Ma Teng can serve as the state herdsman. Of course, I will also return the general's subordinates at that time. I don't know what the general's intention is?" Lv Bu finally decided not to annex Ma Teng's soldiers and horses, but let them go to Bingzhou. Through the matter of Yan Xing, Lv Bu already knew that the melon was not sweet. It was just that Yan Xing's rebellion had almost killed him. If he forcibly annexed Ma Teng's army, he didn't know how much trouble he would leave for Lv Bu's army. Lv Bu's army had recently developed. It's too fast. It's too much to swallow other soldiers. Lv Bu doesn't want to raise a group of disobedient soldiers.
"Do you really let our father and son leave? Do you still want us to take the soldiers with us?" Ma Teng couldn't help but be shocked when he heard it, but he didn't expect that Lv Bu would spit out the fat in his mouth again. What should a person with such a heart be?
"Father, General Lu Bu seems to want us to help him deal with Yuan Shao?" Hearing Lv Bu's words, Ma Yunlu's reaction was completely different from that of Ma Teng. Ma Yunlu had guessed that Lv Bu's purpose of doing this was to deal with Yuan Shao.
