In August, he went to Yangzhou. At the beginning of the month, Lu Bu sent troops to Bingzhou, and in the same month he attacked Yangzhou. Of course, the first one to arrive in Yangzhou must be his adopted son Ma Chao...
Ma Chao is no longer an unknown person in Xiliang, nor is he just the adopted son of Lu Bu. He has fought against many first-class and top generals, including Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Xu Chu, and Xia Houyuan. If Zhang Fei and Guan Yu didn't really kill him because of Lu Bu's face, then no matter how much Xu Chu did, the lord Cao Cao would be overtaken and killed by Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry. If they could kill him, they would have killed him easily.
If Ma Chao had not been able to hold Xu Chu back in the chaos of the army, he would have been in trouble by now. Ma Chao was not hacked to death by Xu Chu, but he still used the third innate purple energy that Lu Bu left in his body without hesitation. Because Ma Chao felt that he no longer needed such a thing, and no one in the world could kill him except his adoptive father Lu Bu. Since no one can kill me, why should I keep this kind of life-saving thing in my body just for reading...
It happened that Cao Cao's general Xia Houyuan insulted Ma Chao's father, not his adoptive father Lu Bu, but his biological father Ma Teng. If Lu Bu Nilin is a domestic slave with three surnames, and Zhang Fei is the "eunuch" Zhang Yide who explodes at the first touch, then Ma Chao hates people mentioning his father the most. Xia Houyuan was furious enough to say that he sold his father for glory. Xia Houyuan scolded Xiliang Ma Teng for selling his son Ma Chao for a good price just so that Xiliang Ma family could dominate Liangzhou.
Different from the chaotic battle with Xu Chu's army, this time Ma Chao actually fought against a truly top-notch general. Xia Houyuan almost killed Ma Chao, and Ma Chao almost killed Xia Houyuan!
Logically speaking, Ma Chao should be in great glory at this time. Because his mind and inner energy have all entered the ranks of top military generals. But Ma Chao is not happy at all these days. There are not many things in this world that can affect Ma Chao's mind, and Ma Yunlu is definitely one of them. Ma Chao didn't even think about involving his sister in things like fighting, but Ma Yunlu followed his adoptive mother Diao Chan.
Ma Chao's way of thinking is very simple, Lu Bu is the best in the world, and Diao Chan will never die as long as Lu Bu is alive. If Diao Chan doesn't die, his sister will be fine. Therefore, Ma Chao would feel confident going out to kill or be killed. Even if Ma Chao died in the battle, his sister Ma Yunlu would go back alive. However, Ma Chao found out that he had made a big mistake and killed Li Dian, Le Jin, and Yu Jin again. After fighting Xu Chu and defeating Xia Houyuan, it was time to return to Shanyang City as soon as possible. In this way, my sister will not make a big mistake. It is not good to fall in love with anyone, but she falls in love with Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, that weak pretty girl...
Yes, in Ma Chao's opinion, Zhao Yun is just a pretty boy. He eats his own sister's food, drinks his own sister's food, and relies on a woman to protect him. What if he's not a pretty boy? What makes Ma Chao angry the most is that Zhao Yunzhen is born with a baby face, and someone in his thirties is more mature than himself.
Ma Chao did not do anything to Zhao Yun, because this was a matter that only his adoptive father Lu Bu could decide. And the current adoptive father Lu Bu is definitely the most terrifying life in the world. In Lu Bu's body, Ma Chao couldn't find any emotion that a human should have. There was no fluctuation and it was extremely terrifying!
Ma Chao knelt outside his adoptive father's tent for a whole day and night because he failed to kill Xia Houyuan for his adoptive father. It was during this day and night that I never knew why Wu Machao was so afraid that I almost had my heart broken. He saw a living demon, the only demon in the world. Ma Chao just suffered from the evil thoughts that Lu Bu inadvertently emitted, and he felt despair. For those princes who thought that his adoptive father was dead, Ma Chao could only hehe...
There are more than 30,000 Ma Chao and Hu Qi, and less than 20,000 are still alive today, but they are undoubtedly the elite among the elite. Its speed is second only to Gongsun Zan's White Horse Yi Cong, its range is second only to Cao Cao's precious Pimple Changshui Camp, and its power is only second to the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry supported by the military formation. It seems that Ma Chao's army is a little inferior to others in everything, but if any of the three major units above is pulled out alone, it will be destroyed by Ma Chao's group. This time Ma Chao was really determined. If his adoptive father wanted Yuan Shu to die, then Yuan Shu must die. Because Ma Chao had a premonition that if he let his adoptive father down again, something terrible would happen to him. Therefore, Ma Chao was not prepared to deal with the Jiujiang County garrison from the beginning, and he did not care about the retreat at all. He bypassed Jiujiang and went to Yuan Shu...
Looking back to Sun Ce, Sun Ce also knew that Jiujiang alone could not stop Lu Bu. Lujiang where Yuan Shu was located was the real place for a showdown. Therefore, Sun Ce divided his troops into two groups. His uncle Sun Jing took his younger brother Sun Quan to Lujiang, while he, Taishi Ci, Huang Gai and other veteran generals went to Jiujiang to frustrate Lu Bu's spirit. Hearing that Lü Bu had a thief named Ma Chao who was his adopted son, he killed Ma Chao first and then Lü Bu to comfort his father Sun Jian's spirit in heaven.
"Report, a large group of people have been spotted ahead!"
"Report, the enemy is ten miles away from our army!"
Xiliang Jin Ma Chao and the little overlord Sun Ce both have a habit, that is, when they have a target in mind, they never send out scouts. Because the speed at which their respective armies marched at full strength was only slightly faster than that of the scouts in the army, naturally there was no need for scouts to detect the enemy's situation. Often when the enemy is discovered, it is the time to make a decisive move.
Ma Chao's troops from Xiliang and Huqi from Xiliang were less than 20,000, and Sun Ce's troops from Jiangdong were also less than 20,000. Ma Chao's troops from Xiliang and Huqi just fought against Cao Cao's Hu Ben Guards and Changshui Camp, and they were in great momentum. Sun Ce's troops from Jiangdong had just crushed most of them. The land south of the Yangtze River is as powerful as a rainbow; Ma Chao will become Lu Bu's adopted son, and will kill all Lu Bu's people in the world for his adoptive father, in order to one day avenge his father. Sun Ce will not hesitate to abandon all the territory in the south of the Yangtze River and bring all his family members with him. and his younger brother Sun Quan, just to avenge their father this time.
When two people with the strongest determination to avenge their father in the world collide, it is destined to be an unprecedented encounter!
When Ma Chao discovered Sun Ce, Sun Ce also noticed Ma Chao's presence. Of course, the speed of the Xiliang Hu cavalry was not comparable to that of the Jiangnan cavalry, but Ma Chao would never retreat. He never believed that he would fail; if Ma Chao still had room to retreat, then Sun Ce had no choice from the beginning. If he turned around and left at this time, the Xiliang cavalry would tell Sun Ce why they were fighting to the death with the Huns every day.
"Ma Chao!!!"
"Sun Ce!!!"
If Ma Chao is the top player in both mind and body, then Sun Ce is the top player in both mind and body. But it doesn't matter. Anyway, it's not a one-on-one battle, and the two of them won't do it, because both of them have the idea of devouring all the other's troops in one go.
