"Lu Bu is brave and good at fighting, even if he will be defeated by Niu Fu, I am afraid it will delay for a while, and during this period, the old man will use other forces in Chang'an to defend, is it okay?" Although Huangfu Song said this, he also knew in his heart that the battlefield was changing rapidly. Such words can only be said on this chessboard according to common sense.

"That's right." Ma Chao smiled, thinking that he should formulate the rules of simulated war chess. However, it is best to finish this game with Huangfu Song in front of him, and maybe he can find out the omissions of Jia Fox's plan from Huangfu Song. From this, Ma Chao looked at Huangfu Song and smiled mysteriously, and continued: "But the old general seems to have forgotten that my first step just now was to send troops to Qinguan. In this way, the old general still thinks that Lu Bu can hold Niu Fu back? ”

"Ma Fuguo is saying? ......." Huangfu Song suddenly withdrew his eyes from Qin Pass, and suddenly understood Ma Chao's intention: "The purpose of your dispatch to Qin Pass is to order Lu Bu to return to Chang'an and not allow him to fight?" ”

"Not bad! As the old general Huangfu said, although Lu Bu is inferior to the general in terms of promotion and management of the army, he is the proud god of war on the battlefield. With him, that war must be the biggest variable. Therefore, I won't let him out of Chang'an......." Speaking of this, Ma Chao was actually very worried in his heart - Xun Youxin mentioned that Lu Bu seemed to be very sure about the killing of Niu Fu. And Jia Xu's old fox also mentioned this point very vaguely, which made Ma Chao confused, so Ma Chao would rather be misunderstood by the world again, and return Lu Bula to Chang'an.

"In this way, Chang'an seems to have become a dead end....... Huangfu Song frowned, looking at the available chess pieces in his hand, a look of worry gradually emerged: Li Meng's 20,000 Liangzhou soldiers? Not available; The soldiers of Jingzhao and Feng Yi counties? Not much use; Wang Yun's private soldiers? Also unavailable!

The only chess pieces left were the 10,000 soldiers and horses of Zhongmu Zhu Jun and the 10,000 forbidden troops controlled by Xu Rong in Chang'an City. Huangfu Song gritted his teeth fiercely and released Xu Rong's 10,000 forbidden troops to Shaanxi County!

This move, Ma Chao was a little unexpected. But if you think about it carefully, according to Liu Xie's temperament, he is very likely to make this kind of strong man's wrist breaking move. In other words, Huangfu Song's move is feasible.

For Xu Rong, Ma Chao is very impressed. It can be said that Xu Rong at this time is no less than the mighty Zhang Liao in history.

Zhonglang General Xu Rong, a native of Liaodong, is a loyal and brave man like Zhang Liao. When Dong Zhuo fought against the Kwantung heroes, he once broke Cao Cao in Xingyang and almost captured him alive - this point, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" did not erase his credit, but Old Man Luo weakened Xu Rong's exploits a lot for the sake of drama readability;

Later, Xu Rong defeated Sun Jian in Liangdong, at that time, Sun Jian often wore a brightly colored red turban, Xu Rong led his troops to stare at the red turban and chased after him, Sun Jian had to take off the turban and put it on the subordinate general Zu Mao to get away with it - about this, Ma Chao was very slanderous, because the old man Luo actually put it on the head of Huaxiong, a military general who is not known in history, although it is to fictionalize Guan Yu's heroic martial arts of killing Huaxiong with warm wine, but this is too fucking Zhang Guan Li Dai, right?

is also because of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the world has a lot of underestimation of Xu Rong. But according to the estimation of the official history....... Ma Chao thought about it, and couldn't help but have some drums in his heart: Cao Cao and Sun Jian were both famous generals of the Three Kingdoms, but they were both defeated by Xu Rong, and Xu Rong's bravery can be seen.

And in history, when the rebels in Liangzhou came, Wang Yun sent Xu Rong and Hu Zhen to take Dong Zhuo's old troops in Chang'an City to meet them. Those old troops and the Liangzhou rebels were originally a family, and they surrendered directly with Hu Zhen. Only Xu Rongning died and was defeated and killed, and his loyalty was like this, which really made Ma Chao a little worried.

Of course, Xu Rong's loyalty is not loyal to the imperial court, but to his duties, which he is also very similar to Zhang Liao.

It can be said that Xu Rong is a famous general no less than Zhang Liao, but unfortunately he is not as lucky as Zhang Liao, he did not meet the Ming Lord, so he died worthlessly, like a speck of dust, disappeared from the sight of future generations.

Fate is like this, and those generals who shine in the long river of history need not only talent, but also luck. Behind those shining stars, I don't know how many talents died halfway!

At this time, Huangfu Song made a desperate bet and reused Xu Rong to send troops to Shaanxi County, presumably because he took a fancy to Xu Rong's loyalty and bravery. And Xu Rong is Dong Zhuo's old general, and it is only fitting for him to come forward to disintegrate the rebels, which will greatly blow the rebels' will to fight.

Therefore, Ma Chao hesitated, and silently put his eyes on Luoyang, wanting to use Yu Fuluo's strange army to increase his weight. But after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't do this: after all, Liu Yue was right in front of her, if she learned that she still had Luoyang Yufuluo's last hole card, then she would definitely do everything possible to send the news back to Chang'an.......

So, Ma Chao silently took the chess piece symbolizing Niu Fu, and said dejectedly: "If the old general is in Chang'an, I'm afraid this Chang'an may really be impregnable........ If Lu Bu really retreated to Chang'an, he would also leave his generals to hold on. When Xu Rong arrives again, he will definitely be more prepared, and Niu Fu's unscrupulous generation, if Xu Rong and Zhu Jun see the opportunity and attack from both sides, they may be defeated and defeated. In this way, Chang'an can be safeguarded........"

"Actually, if Ma Fuguo wants to take Chang'an, it will be effortless. Isn't the old man's arrest the best proof? It's just ......." Huangfu Song didn't feel relieved at all after winning Ma Chao, but frowned and said: "It's just that the old man doesn't know, why didn't the general make a move, so he had to sit and watch Dong Zhuo's old ministry poison Sheji?" ”

"Why?" Ma Chao smiled bitterly, glanced at Liu Yue silently, and said in a strange tone: "The old general still doesn't know much about politics....... Political games are a kind of balance. It is a game of mutual restraint, pinching each other's shortcomings, leading but not triggering, and compromising with each other. Even if you want to kill the other party, you have to kill people with a knife, and you have to show regret afterwards......."

Huangfu Song heard Ma Chao suddenly say this, even though he was old and wise, he couldn't understand Ma Chao's words because he had no eyes to spare and no distractions. couldn't help but look at Liu Yue for help: he knew that this little girl had more experience than himself in this regard.......

Sure enough, after seeing Huangfu Song's eyes, Liu Yue smiled helplessly and explained: "What the husband means, although he is an enmity with His Majesty, His Majesty is Your Majesty after all, and he can't really bear the infamy of a chaotic minister and thief." Therefore, before the imperial court and the Ma family, although they seemed to sometimes friction and sometimes united, they were secretly doing some tricks, which was harmless. But this time, he wanted to borrow the hands of Dong Zhuo's old ministry to completely destroy the Han family, so that all the princes of the world would stand at the same starting point......"

Speaking of this, Liu Yue suddenly glanced back at Ma Chao, and said with an extremely complicated mood: "Then, a new chapter of the competition will be opened, and we will meet again after a long time!" ”

After listening to this, Huangfu Song was silent for a long time. In the end, he sighed and said: "If the old man had the understanding of Ma Mengqi, he would not have been up and down for half his life, and finally ended up in such a terminal situation......."

"Old general, sometimes, it's a good thing to not know this...... Ma Chao said, then turned to Liu Yue and said, "Right?" Princess, just as I know the news that His Majesty wants you to cooperate with the assassination of me, I don't know what to do to ......." After that, Ma Chao reached out and took off the hosta on Liu Yue's head, and after crushing it hard, the secret letter hidden inside was suddenly revealed in front of the three of them!
