, not far from the left and right.Even Zhao Yun felt that Ma Chao loved him like a child.

I have never seriously thought about this before, and I always thought it was just a friendship between two people. Now that I think about it, it seems that some of Ma Chao's actions have gone beyond ordinary friendship. Zhao Yun couldn't figure out what it was for a while, but just thought If he is given a chance, he will treat Ma Chao better and cherish the friendship between them.I thought about promising Ma Chao to greet him in person when he triumphantly returned, and promised the military division to wait for him to come back alive, but now that I am in this situation, I am not sure whether I can really keep the promise and wait for them to come back?

At this moment, nearly a thousand miles away, in the camp of the Shu army, the commander-in-chief Zhuge Liang was sitting in the tent of the Chinese army.The battle report in his hand was sent by the prefect of Yongchang in the southern border.It is said that the desert king of the Wuxi Kingdom in Nanban has repeatedly raised troops to attack and harass the border. In the past few days, he even sent [-] troops to attack Yongchang County.Zhuge Liang calculated that he would be able to arrive at Yongchang tomorrow, so he invited two pioneers, Zhang Fei and Machao, to come to the big tent to discuss.

Ma Di, who has been in the army by Kong Ming's side, finds it strange that he has been with Zhuge Liang all the year round, and he is a general and an important adviser in the army.But this expedition made Ma Di feel a little different. Although the south has been constantly fighting, the situation is not at stake. The normal marching speed of fifty or sixty miles a day, the military division must travel eighty miles before setting up camp. It only took ten The day has reached the border.What's even more strange is that as soon as he arrived in southern Xinjiang, before the army had time to rest, Zhuge Liang immediately formulated a complete set of combat plans.

Ma Di believes that it is a big taboo in the army to use a tired army to deal with a new force waiting for work. Zhuge Liang, who is the commander in chief, should be much clearer than himself.And the most important thing is that they only brought [-] soldiers and horses with them for this southern expedition. Zhuge Liang believed that the soldiers were more skilled than they were many, and that the southern barbarians only talked about bravery but not wisdom. He left most of the troops in Chengdu and handed them over to Fa Zheng. , Huang Zhong and others commanded to give the main force fighting for Dongchuan more time to rest. He only brought [-] Xiliang soldiers under Ma Chao and [-] elite soldiers under Zhang Fei, which was weaker than Nanman in terms of strength. desert king.But ever since he followed the military adviser, he seemed to be able to predict everything first, so Ma Di was not worried that Zhuge Liang would make such a mistake, he was just a little worried about the commander's body, after all, he was a literati, not like a military general. He has a strong physique, if he puts all his effort into it, he might not be able to support it.

The march this time was a bit overloaded. Fortunately, these soldiers were well-trained and absolutely obeyed Zhuge Liang as the commander. But what disturbed Ma Su the most was that this was not Zhuge Liang's proper style. A steady military division has such a deed?At this moment, the camp had just been set up, and it was getting late, but the military division still wanted to recruit generals to discuss the military situation.

When the two generals came to the tent, they didn't think there was any difference. Both of them were irritable. Soldiers are expensive and fast.

Especially Ma Chao, ever since he left Chengdu, he felt that something was missing in his heart. Ma Chao felt even more regretful than Zhao Yun for not being able to come to southern Xinjiang with Zhao Yun.In the past ten days, Ma Chao has deeply realized what it means to "not seeing each other every day is like every autumn".Zhao Yun's shadow is all over his heart and mind, Zilong is in good health, and his injuries have not healed yet.He knows that this is a kind of longing, Zilong, I really miss you, do you miss me?

Zhuge Liang looked at Ma Chao, who had always been out of his wits since leaving Chengdu, and coughed lightly. Ma Chao woke up abruptly. He looked at Zhuge Liang apologetically, but saw the military adviser smiling at him. "Yide, Meng Qi will arrive in Yongchang County tomorrow. The desert king of Nanban Wuxi Kingdom is attacking Yongchang. He will definitely deceive us to come here and rely on his strength to beat our army and want to have a decisive battle. Now Yongchang is besieged on all sides, I'm afraid we will encounter enemy soldiers before we reach Yongchang."

"Military commander, let Lao Zhang be the vanguard, no matter how many soldiers the desert king has, he will definitely be killed. When Lao Zhang enters Yongchang, the desert king will never get through even if he has several times more troops." Zhang Fei is full of confidence.

"Three generals, we are not going to defend Yongchang and confront the desert king, but to annihilate some of his troops and break the siege of Yongchang. What's more, the southern barbarians are brave even though they are ignorant. It is really unwise to fight recklessly with an enemy soldier several times my size."

"What good strategy does the military advisor have?" Ma Di asked.

"The prefect Wang's husband was able to defend Yongchang as solid as gold under the attack of the Desert King's [-] army. He sent people out of the pass and sent here the geographical map of mountains and rivers for tens of miles around Yongchang. You Chang, come and see. "

Ma Di took the picture and looked at it for a while and said, "The mountains around Yongchang are steep, which is a good place to use troops."

"That's right. In the coming days, I will often bring an army of five thousand, prepare more flags, pretend to be thirty thousand soldiers, and go to Yongchang. Before departure, I will send someone to the desert king's camp to write a letter of war, let him come to fight, and then withdraw the army. Yide leads [-] soldiers around the mountain tonight, and first lays an ambush behind the enemy. As long as most of the desert king's troops are dispatched, he will attack the rear. Mengqi's task is the heaviest. You lead [-] soldiers. You have to march [-] miles tonight, and lay an ambush first. Go to the enemy's grain camp in Cangshan, and set fire to his grain camp when the Desert King pursues You Chang at dawn."

"But Xiaochang's 5000 troops can't stop the desert king's tens of thousands of people. I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape once they are surrounded." Ma Chao said worriedly.

"It doesn't matter. I ordered the deputy general Wu Lan Leitong to lead 2000 troops to ambush each side of the mountain road. As a suspicious soldier, I only need to stop him for a while. Once you and Yide make a move, I will send another person to notify the city's prefect and attack at the same time. The king will surely retreat. You all pursue together, remember, just drive his men and horses across Lushui, and try not to hurt his soldiers."

"Why is that?" All the generals couldn't understand.

"Because Liang wants to use them against another person." When Zhuge Liang uses troops, others count one step, but he often counts three or four.The generals took the lead and acted one by one.

On the second day, everything was as expected by Kong Ming. The desert king rushed in greedily and fell into a trap. Zhang Fei dispersed his rear camp. The grain village in Cangshan was burned by Ma Chao's ambush. In the panic, it was impossible to figure out how many Shu soldiers there were, so they had to take more than 6 remnants and retreat to the south of Lushui River to form a village near the water.It only took Kong Ming half a day to repel the desert king and break the siege of Yongchang.

All the generals were overjoyed, and all the teams returned to the camp to hand over orders, but Ma Chao felt a little uneasy. Thinking back to what happened when he went to Cangshan to burn the grain village this morning, he did it impulsively. After the order, he pleaded guilty with the military division.

Up to now, Ma Chao recalled that when he rushed into the grain camp this morning, his soldiers set fire on all sides. The desert king's men never thought that the Shu army would attack so soon. Although there were a large number of people, they panicked when they saw the fire on all sides. Hands and feet, most of the soldiers fled in all directions, and occasionally a few lieutenants came to stop them, and they were picked up by Ma Chao one or two times.When they were rushing to kill, there was a blaze of red in front of the formation, and a woman, dressed in red, stepped off a red-maned horse, patted the horse and flew towards Ma Chao, with two knives in her hands.It was a female general who came, but Ma Chao didn't want to fight with the woman, but he saw that the two sabers were approaching, so he had no choice but to block them with his gun. With all his strength, he had already lifted the two sabers away, turned his wrist, and pointed the spear point directly at the female general's chest. Throat, but not pierced.

When he saw who was coming, Ma Chao couldn't help but tremble. The female general in front of him was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and she was as beautiful as a lotus in clear water.It was not the woman's beauty that made Ma Chao lose his mind, but the woman. . . . . . .Like, really a bit like, this woman looks a bit like his deceased wife, only a little more heroic.Unconsciously, the pain in my heart was brought out again, and the sad and beautiful figure on the wall pool instantly turned into green smoke and disappeared without a trace.Ma Chao retracted his spear, and said to the woman whose face was pale with fright, "You go?"

"You won't kill me?" the woman asked, looking at the handsome enemy in gold armor and robes like a god of war, with a puzzled expression and a hint of childishness.

"I never kill women, let alone you are a child." Ma Chao looked disdainful.

The woman's face suddenly became very ugly, "I will make you regret this decision, leave your name if you are capable." It is very unpleasant to be looked down upon by others, not to mention that this woman has a high status in the desert king's army .

Ma Chao didn't want to leave his name at first, but it seemed that the woman was unwilling and just wanted to send her away quickly, so he replied: "Ma Chao, little girl, I think you should go quickly, otherwise I might change my mind." The words gradually turned cold.

As if she had heard Ma Chao's name before, the woman took another serious look at Ma Chao, turned the horse around, and galloped away.A woman's voice came from the wind: "Ma Chao, if you let me go today, Cai Yin will surely spare you again in the future." The little girl refused to suffer even if she spoke.

After asking the captured soldiers, Ma Chao was a little dumbfounded. It turned out that the woman just now was the daughter of the king of the desert—Master Caiyin.If she had been caught just now, the war with the Desert King might have ended. Ma Chao thought so, although he didn't regret his actions just now, but he still felt a little uneasy for unknown reasons.Maybe I did something wrong, but I just couldn't be cruel. At that moment, I only remembered my first wife and the guilt towards my wife, so I made such a decision. I don't know how the military adviser will think about it.
