Han army camp.
Jia Xu cleverly plotted against Pang De and Ma Dai, causing the two generals of the Han army to be seriously injured.
If Xing Daorong hadn't come to the rescue, the two of them would have been in trouble.
Even so, it was difficult for the two of them to continue fighting in their attack on Chang'an, so they had to be sent back to Chengdu to recuperate.
"Your Majesty, I blame Liang for underestimating Jia Xu and wounding the two generals."
Zhuge Liang frowned, Pang De and Ma Dai were both indispensable famous generals in the Han Dynasty.
In this attack on Chang'an, Zhuge Liang also wanted to make the three brothers of Xiliang famous in the world, but he did not expect to be foiled by Jia Xu's poisonous plan.
"The Prime Minister's words are serious. It is clearly Jia Xu who is cunning and deceived Ling Ming and Bo Zhan. It has nothing to do with the Prime Minister!"
Liu Bei sighed: "Jia Wenhe is indeed a poisonous person, but it's a pity that he has no world in his heart and only pursues his own selfish desires!"
"How ruthless God is. He gave Jia Xu the ability to serve the country, but did not give him a heart to serve the country!"
The generals of the Han army were filled with righteous indignation. In order to rescue Pang De and Ma Dai today, many soldiers died under the rain of arrows.
"Your Majesty! If we don't let Ma Deheng's Thunderbolt Chariot be used, Chang'an will definitely fall!"
Ma Chao was anxious at this time, worried about Pang De and Ma Dai's injuries. The three of them had supported each other along the way and had long been indifferent between you and me.
If the Thunderbolt Chariot is used to attack the city, the city wall of Chang'an will definitely fall.
Although Ma Chao's idea was good, he was blocked by Liu Bei.
"Meng Qi, there are still hundreds of thousands of people in Chang'an!"
"Although the Thunderbolt Chariot can break through the city wall, it can also easily injure people by accident!"
"I can't bear to involve innocent people because of my own personal vendetta!"
Liu Bei's words calmed down all the Han generals. This is the majesty they want to follow.
If it were Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Dong Zhuo, they probably wouldn't care about the lives of the people.
Only Liu Bei, who was famous for his kindness, never had the heart to hurt the people.
"I hope the Prime Minister will think of other strategies to attack Chang'an!"
When Zhuge Liang heard this, he nodded and said: "Your Majesty clearly knows that attacking the city by force is what Jia Xu wants our army to do."
"Soldiers are deceitful! The more the enemy wants our army to do something, the less our army can do it."
"I hope Meng Qi and the Xiliang cavalry will suppress their desire for revenge for the time being."
Ma Chao nodded hard. Two brothers were almost killed by Jia Xu. As the elder brother, he must take revenge.
Unfortunately, Chang'an is now indestructible, and a forced attack on the city will only increase casualties.
Once there are too many casualties, the morale of the Han army will be low, and the initiative in the war will be again in the hands of the Wei army.
"Jia Wenhe will make a series of actions to provoke our army."
"If our army is fooled, we will make them happy."
"What our army needs to do now is to farm and prepare for a protracted war!"
Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly and said with a smile: "War is never just about the frontal battlefield!"
"Although Cao Wei is dominating the Central Plains, he was deceived by the prince's previous plan!"
"With such a long supply line, Liang wants to see how long they can sustain it!"
Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this and ordered the generals to follow Zhuge Liang's words and not to do anything without authorization.
In order to prevent the horse from being out of condition, Liu Bei even took it with him himself.
Liu Bei always trusted this old friend.
Ma Chao was moved, and the emperor and his ministers did not believe him, which made him more loyal to Liu Bei and Liu Mang's Han Dynasty.
…
Chang'an.
Jia Xu finally won with a poisonous trick. Cao Zhang not only killed Yang Hong and Zhuo Yong, but also wounded Pang De and Ma Dai.
"It's a pity that if Lieutenant Jia hadn't deliberately pursued victory today, our army would have killed Liu Bei's four generals!"
Yang Xi looked at Jia Xu, his words full of contempt.
As a celebrity, Yang Di also has noble moral character. It is obviously unrealistic for him to be the same as Jia Xu.
Jia Xu didn't care at all and said with a smile: "In my opinion, killing Pang Dema Dai is not as economical as shooting more than a thousand soldiers."
"Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun are all enemies of ten thousand people! Why can't Liu Bei take off? It's because he is an unwise man."
"Master Yangqi doesn't even understand this vulgar truth, right?"
you……
Yang Xi was about to argue, but Cao Zhang stopped him with his eyes.
"Lieutenant Jia, the first victory in today's battle belongs to you, and I will report the truth to my eldest brother."
Cao Zhang said bluntly: "Fortunately, Pang De and Ma Dai were injured, and only Ma Chao is left to command the Xiliang cavalry."
"I have sent a letter to Your Majesty. As soon as the tiger and leopard cavalry come, they will definitely defeat Liu Bei's cavalry!"
"The only ones who are good at cavalry in Liu Bei's army are the three generals of Xiliang and Zhao Yun'er. The rest are nothing to worry about!"
It was a good thing in Jia Xu's opinion that Cao Zhang was so confident, but he vaguely felt something was wrong.
With Zhuge Liang's character, he will definitely not suffer.
But he didn't know what strategy Wolong would use to attack Chang'an.
Fortunately, Jia Xu had insight into people's hearts and decided to anger the Han army again!
"King Rencheng, I remember that the bodies of Ma Teng and his son are still there, right?"
Hearing this, Cao Zhang frowned.
As the saying goes, the dead are the most important. All the emperors of the Han Dynasty were killed in the wilderness by Jia Xu, but Ma Chao and his family were still missing?
"Captain Jia, please take it easy. I will not interfere in this matter."
"Thank you so much, King Ren Cheng! I will slowly torture the Han army!"
Jia Xu stroked his beard, and he could already picture Ma Chao furious.
…
Han army camp.
Zhuge Liang was holding a candle and talking at night, and sitting opposite him was Ma Chao.
"Prime Minister, what do you mean by calling me here?"
"Meng Qi, this battle requires you to leave the military camp temporarily and lead the Xiliang cavalry to garrison at Wuzhangyuan."
Ma Chao was confused. A fierce battle was going on below Chang'an City. How could he leave so easily?
"In addition to the bald Xianbei, there are also Huns passing through Bingzhou who want to harass our army's rear."
"Only Meng Qi can lead the cavalry to compete with him. The comfort of the partial division depends entirely on you alone."
Zhuge Liang's eyes were sincere, and Ma Chao felt that this trip was a heavy responsibility.
It's a pity that without Pang Demadai's help, he doesn't even have anyone he can discuss with when encountering problems.
"Prime Minister, Chaoyuan will go..."
"Don't worry, Meng Qi, Liang will send his disciples to go with you."
Zhuge Liang was as gentle as jade, and a young man walked out from behind the screen, it was Tianshui Jiang Boyue.
"Boyue, traveling with General Ma this time will definitely sharpen your state of mind."
"Discuss everything with General Ma and don't be rude!"
Jiang Wei heard this and bowed to Zhuge Liang and Ma Chao.
"Don't worry, mentor, Wei will definitely listen to you!"
"Jiang Wei, boy, have you met General Ma!"
Ma Chao was a little unhappy in his heart, but it didn't show on his face.
Unexpectedly, Prime Minister Zhuge also likes to use the back door.
How old is this kid? Even if he is in the army, what role can he play?
It’s just a mixed military exploit!
However, for Zhuge Liang's sake, Ma Chao had no choice but to agree.
"Prime Minister Zhuge's master disciple must be outstanding."
Ma Chao said something perfunctory and led Jiang Wei out of the military camp.
"General Ma! Take me with you, and I will definitely make you meritorious!"
Jiang Wei walked out of the military camp with a relaxed look on his face and said with a smile: "My master is Mr. Wolong, and my brother is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"As their junior, I, Jiang Wei, will never be embarrassed!"
