Coming out of the Longmen Inn, Ma Chao went to Xunfu again. But the housekeeper of the Xun Mansion told Ma Chao that Xun Yu had gone out.

Ma Chao shook his head, he had already guessed that at this time, Xun You should not go anywhere else except to go to Situ Mansion for a secret talk.

Walking back stupidly, Ma Chao felt that he was not suitable to go out today: either he saw others come to arrest his little brother, or he was falsely assassinated. What's even more hateful is that the Wang Yue I want to see very much today has no possibility of meeting!

However, fortunately, Wang Yue's matter was not very urgent, and Ma Chao returned to his Zhenxi General's Mansion in a hurry, and at the same time sent someone to send Liu Yue back to the South Garden of the Palace. After frolicking with the elephant dragon Xiaohei, Ma Chao was a little unbelieving, and rode it to his own guard camp.

Ma Chao's personal guard battalion was not directly stationed in Chang'an's barracks. Instead, he found a deserted compound, and after hastily cleaning it up, he used it as a revolutionary fire base in Chang'an. It is said that Ma Chao is very impolite in doing this. But now that Dong Fat has entered Beijing, who will provoke Ma Chao who even Dong Fat Man dares to assassinate for this bit of, and he has no after the assassination?

The yard is quite large, and after releasing the war horses and living in people, Ma Chao felt that it could accommodate more than 2,000 people. What's even more gratifying is that it is also quite close to Ma Chao's Zhenxi General's Mansion. It is also for this reason that the last time I acted with Lu Bu, these guards were able to rush to Xicheng, where I felt that the eunuchs were gathered, in less than a cup of tea.

And to be able to find such a big yard, or this big campus, in the final analysis, thanks to the fat man. Since the people of Chang'an met Dong Zhuo, they have suffered a lot of crimes. Especially a wealthy family like this kind of Daejeon Courtyard may have been copied by Dong Zhuo's subordinates for some reason. Two years have passed, and it has become so barren that it is just cheaper for Ma Chao, an outsider.

All in all, Ma Chao is very satisfied with this place. Especially in terms of distance and independence, it is even more for the future turmoil in Chang'an. provided Ma Chao with a military force that could be completely at his disposal, which was a bit of a rainy day.

Along the way, the guards saw Ma overcoming. Even reverence. Although he was speechless, he didn't look at Ma Chao a few times. But in terms of spirit, it is obviously more than one level. Among them, it is naturally because Ma Chao has improved the living conditions of these pro-guards, but it is also not unrelated to the ideological brainwashing and personality cult advocacy carried out by Fa Zheng.

Ma Chao's personal guards, all of them are first-class soldiers when they are pulled out casually. And because he entered the guard camp again, he enjoyed the treatment of a military commander. Naturally there is a sense of superiority, at the same time. Following the leader's side, they can see the vanity of the 'great leader's face at any time, which also makes them feel quite face-saving.

Ma Chao and the guards who passed by greeted each other with a smile, trying to maintain their glorious image. After asking where Xu Huang lived. Ma Chao went straight to Xu Huang's house.

When Ma Chao came in, Xu Huang was holding a bundle of bamboo slips and gnawing on them, as if he was fascinated. Ma Chao took a closer look and couldn't help but be a little happy: what Xu Huang read was the book "On War, Campaigns and Tactics" written by himself.

Let's be honest. Ma Chao's stomach doesn't have much, most of them are the inventory of his junior high school and high school political classes. Some of the books were compiled by him and some military works that he had come into contact with in his previous life, combined with his own understanding. Fortunately. A person's success is often like this: if Ma Chao is not good, it does not mean that his people are not good. There are military books in the collection of the Shenbu Sect and some existing military masters such as Jia Xu, Fa Zheng, Yang Fu, You Chu, etc., and it is really not difficult for him to make such a few books. Sometimes, even he takes out these books and reads them himself.

In order to make it understandable to those middle- and lower-ranking officers who did not read much, Ma Chao specially instructed the scribe who compiled this book to write it in the vernacular. Well, naturally, it is also to make it easier for him to understand: although in his previous life, Ma Chao was a college student, but at the end of this Han Dynasty, his level was not much stronger than those officers who only recognized a few big characters. It took him a year to understand those traditional characters.

But this book is in Xu Huang's eyes, it is not ordinary. After all, Ma Chao's concept is at the forefront of this era. The easy-to-understand vernacular text also made Xu Huang's comprehension clearer and more intuitive, and the theories in the book made Xu Huang feel refreshed and dumbfounded.

Xu Huang scratched his head for a while, pondered for a while, and smiled again. It wasn't until Ma Chao coughed lightly that Xu Huang noticed Ma Chao's arrival.

"Lord!" Xu Huang hurriedly saluted, but Ma Chao waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need to be so restrained.

"Are you used to coming here?" Ma Chao sat down cross-legged, not minding that his brocade robe was stained with mud.

"The military discipline in the battalion is strict, but it is not harsh. Among the sergeants, although there is a subordination, they are led to robes. Words and deeds, deep temperament. What shocked his subordinates even more was that although these guards usually had no killing spirit, when they practiced fighting, their murderous spirit was fully displayed. Huang has been in the army for many years and has never seen this elite division. Speaking of this, Xu Huang was really impressed. It turned out that his first impression of Ma Chao was terrible. I never thought that this guard battalion would change his opinion all of a sudden.

And when he learned that all this was formulated and implemented by Ma Chao himself, Xu Huang felt at that moment: that day...... Did you just bump into Ma Chao taking the wrong medicine?

At this time, Ma Chao's evaluation of Xu Huang was already very high. Without him, just because of what Xu Huang said, I can see at once how high Xu Huang's foothold is. He opened his mouth to look at the style of the entire guard battalion, but there was no trivial matter of the past two days. In addition, Xu Huang is still so studious...... No wonder he can become one of Cao Wei's five good generals in the future.

"When Gongming first read this book, what did he realize?" Hearing Xu Huang praise his personal guards like this, Ma Chao was also relieved. At least, this shows that Xu Huang may have a sense of belonging to the Ma family in the future. So, he changed the topic and continued to let Xu Huang feel the affinity of his glorious great leader......

"My subordinates have just read a bundle, and I feel that this book is very hearty. In the past, his subordinates only knew that they fought to fill their stomachs, but after reading this book, they realized that soldiers should not be like that. Speaking of this book, Xu Huang's expression immediately became a little serious, and his respect for Ma Chao was also unconsciously revealed.

But Ma Chao blushed slightly, and said in disguise: "Then as Gongming said, what should a soldier be like?" ”

"Loyalty, fearlessness, martial arts, and more importantly, to fight for the people of the Han Dynasty, to fight for them to find a good future, for a kind of... Fight in a noble spirit! In the end, Xu Huang couldn't think of a term to explain his inner feelings.

"Fight for honor!" Ma Chao waited for Xu Huang to finish speaking, and immediately added.

"Exactly, fight for honor!" Xu Huang was suddenly stunned, feeling that Ma Chao really spoke to his heart: in Ma Chao's personal guard, Xu Huang felt a feeling that he had never had. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid it's that kind of high honor!

"Gongming is open-minded and heroic, and with this understanding, it really impresses Chao." Ma Chao said, then waved his hand and called a personal guard: "Give the paper version of the book written by a certain family to Gongming!" ”

"No!" The guards retired, and after a while, a stack of books, about five or six, came. But the content in it is much more than the bundles of bamboo slips that Xu Huang reads.

"These books are given to Gongming, and I hope that Gongming can understand something from the inside, if there is anything you have doubts about, or something you don't understand, you can also explain it to you in person when you are familiar with the guard camp and when you are with a certain side. Of course, if Gongming feels that there is something wrong with the writing, he can also tell him bluntly, after all, one person counts short, and two people count long. "It doesn't cost much to send these things, but Ma Chao knows that such a weight will make Xu Huang loyal in the future.

"The lord is well versed in the art of war, and he is strategic. Huang can meet the master, even if he dies, he has no regrets! Sure enough, Xu Huang was so moved that he was about to cry.

And just when Ma Chao wanted to sensationalize for a while, he heard a noise outside. Ma Chao frowned, and said secretly in his heart: You can't believe in evil! Is it really not appropriate to go out today?
