Yuan Shu wanted to provoke the world's attention to Yuzhou, and his troops were divided into two places, stationed in Kuangting and Yingyang, and wanted to attack Yan and Jingzhou. Its ambition has to be said to be rare in the world. And all this has indeed attracted the attention of the world.

However, this move also brought unexpected consequences to Yuan Shu: Cao Cao sent 100,000 troops to garrison Zhencheng and fight against it across the water; And Liu Biao also sent 100,000 troops, displayed with Anle County, and forced Yuan Shu's Yuzhou Laochao Runan; What's even more odious is that the Ma family actually sent troops to Hanguguan, typed out a document to fight against the thieves, and stationed in Nanyang County!

All kinds of situations began to make Yuan Shu upset. As a result, after he smashed a few pieces of jewelry and jade, he roared angrily: "Let Liu Xiang and Lu Bu march quickly, no matter which side gets the first merit, this general will be rewarded!" ”

The puppet was furious, and blood splattered five steps. And when the Son of Heaven is angry, he will have millions of corpses. The more powerful a person is, the more his every move needs those low-level soldiers to exchange their blood and lives for the love of the lord.

But Yuan Shu was furious, but Ma Chao's mood gradually improved. Since sending troops to Hangu, Ma Chao has really escaped the tragic scene of thousands of miles of red land and the flood of locusts, and has seen the eye-catching green. And along the way, the wheat fields are swaying, and the seedlings are fragrant, which is the beauty of midsummer. Many Li Zhengye elders leisurely commanded those villagers and peasant women to work in the fields, and looked at the houses in the distance that were already full of smoke, and couldn't help but show a happy and satisfied smile.

Passing all the way along Hangu Road, Ma Chao has already entered the border of Nanyang County. Because there were 500,000 victims along the way, the journey was slow, and after arriving at Lushi, it was already early July. And from the shadow secret report planted in the Kuangting area in advance, it was learned that at this time, Cao Cao and Yuan Shu had already fought each other.

Liu Xiang had already made a move when he waited for Yuan Shu's army for a long time before it arrived, and was ordered by Yuan Shu to attack in a big way. However, Cao Cao was faster than Liu Xiang, and when the Ma family's alliance was sent to Zhencheng, Cao Cao ordered Xun Yu to mobilize troops and horses from all over Zhencheng, posing as if he was preparing for a large-scale battle, and paralyzed Liu Xiang. When Liu Xiang was uncertain and restless, Cao Cao personally led the elite legion of tigers and leopards as the vanguard, quickly crossed the Pushui and launched a lightning raid.

A day's work has been revealed. Liu Xiang knew that Cao Cao was so powerful in using soldiers, but he didn't expect Cao Cao to be so powerful. Before he had time to express his admiration for Cao Cao, he was annihilated by Cao Cao and showed his head to the public.

Cao Cao won the first hand, but he was not complacent, and after gathering the heavy troops and horses, he began to arrange his second move.

Cao Cao ordered his subordinates to clean up the battlefield and simply set up a formation in Kuangting in preparation for the arrival of Yuan Shu's army. And in order to confuse Yuan Shu, he did not hesitate to put on a general trend of python swallowing elephants to coerce and insult Yuan Shu. But secretly, the shadow of the Ma family has been ascertained, and Cao Cao has ordered Cao Ren to lead his main army to secretly reinforce Kuangting as quickly as possible.

I have to say that Cao Cao used a good trick to lure the snake out of the hole.

Ma Chao secretly admired this, Yuan Shu came from Runan, and this place was the foundation of the huge family of the Yuan family. As a son-in-law, Yuan Shu's influence in his hometown is far greater than that of Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu's troops sealed the hill, which made the people in the Fengqiu area full of expectations for Yuan Shu, the sister-in-law of the fourth and fifth dukes. Therefore, if Cao Cao sent troops to attack without authorization, he might not be able to please him. After picking the itch of Kuangting's scabies with one knife, Cao Cao's strategy of leading troops to move and luring the enemy to attack was indeed the best choice.

"Ma Dai, pass the order down, set up camp, boil the pot and make rice, let the soldiers and victims rest for two hours, and then continue to march south, after integrating the disaster victims into Nanyang County, immediately hide at the border of the Lu clan, once Yuan Shu has a move to start a war with Cao Cao, immediately take the Lu clan!"

In this dispatch, Ma Chao took Zhang Liaoyan's northern cavalry and Gao Shun's camp as the main army, followed by the infantry of Li Yan and Wei Yan and the three battalions of Ma Dai, Xu Rong and Zhang Xiu, the Ma Jia iron cavalry and the first battalion of chariot troops, and finally more than 1,000 white horse volunteers from Zhao Yun went out with the army. As for Liang Xing, Yang Feng, Zhou Cang, and Liao Hua, they are still stationed at the Tiger Prison and Bishui Pass, thinking that they are the gateway of the Ma family. and Pang De personally led a regiment to garrison Luoyang, which was the second line of defense on the Ma family's front; Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou guarded Chang'an; Xu Huang's heavy armor and iron cavalry, due to the heat of summer, it is not suitable to fight, so he is on standby at Hangu Pass.

Seeing Ma Dai hurriedly running away from the herald, Zhao Yun on the side was puzzled: "Meng Qi, now Cao Cao has forced Yuan Shu to make a move, and he will fight in the blink of an eye. If Yuan Shu insisted on being an enemy of Cao Cao, he would inevitably transfer Lu Bu back to the army to defend. In this way, if our army does not advance quickly and drive straight in, it will lose the first opportunity. Wouldn't it be a pity to do so? ”

"Brother," Ma Chao stroked the new velvet whiskers on his chin, and said with a smile: For this title, Zhao Yun was very resistant at first. But after Ma Chao personally came to the door and proposed to let Zhao Yun meet the world's tiger Lu Bu with the army, Zhao Yun was no longer very resistant to this.

And Ma Chao also thought of being like Liu Bei and cheekily calling Zhao Yun a brother and brother since Xun Yu broke Zhao Yun's heart, since Zhao Yun wanted to continue to fight for his reputation in troubled times, then Ma Chao would never stop Zhao Yun's wish. However, he and Zhao Yun naturally can't compare high and low. First, Ma Chao's identity has far overshadowed Zhao Yun, and there is no need to do anything with Zhao Yun; Second, Ma Chao wants to keep Zhao Yun, and he can't mess up the etiquette system of the main minister.

From this, Ma Chaofang thought that he couldn't compete with each other, only complement each other. If he worships Zhao Yun as a brother as a hussar general, then Zhao Yun's identity will definitely reach a higher level. And Zhao Yun is not a stupid person, under Ma Chao's brazen pleas three or four times, he also saw Ma Chao's intentions, and since then he has been commensurate with Ma Chao and Guo Jia, and his relationship with Ma Chao has become more and more intimate.

Yuan Shu would not sit idly by and ignore Cao Cao's actions, and with his practice of dividing the troops into two places this time, it can be seen that Yuan Shu's intention to fight for fame and prestige can be seen. As a result, Yuan Shu sent troops to attack Cao Cao, not possible, but certain! Ma Chao laughed confidently, seeing a trace of disappointment flashing on Zhao Yun's face, he couldn't help but guess that Zhao Yun was afraid of missing out on the idea of competing with Lu Bu, patted Zhao Yun on the back, and continued: "However, in the whole world, although Chao dare not say that he is the person who knows Lu Bu best, he can also grasp a few points about Lu Bu's temperament and psychology. Brother thinks that with Lu Bu's brave posture and the momentum of 50,000 troops in his hands, will he obey Yuan Shu's orders and return to Fengqiu? ”

"Meng Qi is saying?" Zhao Yun understood, after listening to Ma Chao's explanation, under his beautiful face, a pair of tiger eyes were shining, and he couldn't help but feel more eager for Lu Bu, nodded and sighed: "The eldest husband was born in troubled times, and he should be like Lu Bu, not controlled by heaven and earth, and he is the true character of a hero." However, this person is snobbish and changeable, kills his father to seek glory, and really does not deserve the name of a hero, and his defeat in the hands of Meng Qi is also clear."

"Brother is fallacious, under the whole world, how can there be any heavenly reason?" Ma Chao listened to Zhao Yun's words, and actually had a little appreciation for Lu Bu, and couldn't help but intercept Zhao Yun's nonsense, and said: "My husband was born in troubled times, and the first task is to judge the situation. Defeated twice at my hands, it was not a crime of war, but because of the lack of loyalty, righteousness and righteousness, my brother thought that this time Lu Bu did not listen to Yuan Shu's orders, could he still continue to be a general under Yuan Shu? ”

After that, Ma Chao did not force Zhao Yun again, but drove the horse first. Leave Zhao Yun time to think alone, hoping that Zhao Yun can see his good intentions as soon as possible. And Zhao Yun looked at the dashing figure of Ma Chaofei leaving, and seemed to have figured out something, muttering to himself: "I didn't expect Yun to be preached by Meng Qi, but what Meng Qi said is indeed Jinshi's heartfelt words."
