Chapter 831: Fighting Before the Battle

I cherish each other, and I can't eat it.

Especially when the two armies are facing each other, it doesn't matter if those personal heroism is overflowing.

What is more important at the moment is how to get rid of the current Cao Cao's troops. The best, you can also exchange for the remnants of Lu Bu's defeated generals!

Although Lu Bu did not explain the causes and consequences of this battle in detail, Ma Chao probably guessed a seven, seven, eighty-eight: since Lu Buzhong Liu Xie's plan, after missing Dingtao, he was immediately chased and beaten by Cao Cao all the way. Looking at this situation now, it is estimated that Cao Cao Qi is complementing Cao Cao's plan to intercept and kill, and he will be cornered.

Now, although the two sides are facing each other, the strength of the two sides is also comparable. But if Cao Cao is open-minded and fights to the death with Lu Bu, then it is really possible to defeat Lu Bu in one fell swoop and recover the entire Yanzhou. Even, taking advantage of this opportunity, it is not impossible to kill yourself and plot against the Ma family!

What he needs now is a reason to make Cao Cao scruples. As long as there is such a reason, it is possible to successfully reach an agreement with Cao Cao for a temporary truce, exchange prisoners, and then go back to their own homes and find their own mothers.

However, looking at the current situation, Cao Cao is also vacillating between this match. There must be factors that he has to think about, but this is what Ma Chao has not grasped for the time being.

As for what you said, use the lives of Xu Chu and Dian Wei as a threat?

Come on, who is Cao Cao?

This kind of childish idea of a little child, used in front of Cao Cao, will have no other effect at all except for self-inflicted humiliation: if he can change his ideals for the sake of the two fierce generals, can Cao Cao still be Cao Cao? Don't talk about Xu Chu and Dian Wei, even if all the generals of the Cao clan and the Xiahou clan were captured by Ma Chao, then a person like Cao Cao who never gave up would seize any opportunity to fight with Ma Chao to the end!

No matter how stupid Ma Chao is, he will not have such extravagant hopes. Cao Cao is a traitor in the world, and there is no gentleman! A gentleman can deceive him. And Cao Cao, a male lord who has not liked to read Confucian classics since he was a child, can order an executioner who slaughtered hundreds of thousands of Xuzhou people, and you still want to use the lives of two generals to blackmail him?

It's a ridiculous thing in the world!!

The reason why Cao Cao did not immediately use force was because there were still scruples that Cao Cao did not want to admit. And this scruple, Ma Chao has no clue for the time being, and it is not necessarily that others have not seen through it.

"Cao Gong, now that the two armies are facing each other, both sides have scruples. How about a strike on all sides of the hostages? The person who said this was none other than Chen Gong beside Ma Chao.

"The public platform bullied me." Cao Cao laughed again, as if he had heard something very ridiculous. After laughing, Cao Cao's face suddenly straightened, and he shouted: "Chen Gong, you joined forces with Zhang Miao and Lu Bu to seize my Yanzhou, and there are still people who have the face to reconcile here today, you are really cheeky!" This time, I have all the armor, the food and grass are abundant, and I will kill you in a moment!! ”

"Very good........ Chen Gong was so insulted by Cao Cao, he didn't move at all, but spread his sleeve robe, and said lightly: "Then Chen Gong is waiting for Cao Gong's order to attack." I want to see how Cao Gong dared to kill his father-in-law in front of the hussar general!! ”

'Yes! At this time, Ma Chao couldn't wait to slap his mouth: Sure enough, he was a fan of the authorities and a bystander, and Cao Cao was not someone else, but himself!

Blinded by Cao Cao's dazzling aura in history, Ma Chao unconsciously forgot that in this era, he is already an excellent prince of the late Han Dynasty who has come to Cao Cao!

Ma Chao's three states, zero two counties and six counties, while Cao Cao is now less than five counties; Cao Cao's 100,000 soldiers and horses, but these 100,000 soldiers and horses are not as powerful as Ma Chao's 30,000 iron horses; What's more, at this time, Chen Liujun was still in the hands of Zhang Miao, even though Cao Cao could chase and fight fiercely, but at present, when fighting head-to-head, there is no problem for himself, Lu Bu and others to successfully break through. And if Cao Cao really launched an attack today, then after he broke through, he would definitely do his best to fight the Ma family's male soldiers, use Chen Liu as a springboard, and level Yanzhou Cao Cao, with today's hatred!

This scruple was enough to make Cao Cao hesitate. And Ma Chao, who clearly realized this, had confidence in his heart, and his face gradually became calm and indifferent.

What's even more coincidental is that at this time, the single behind Ma Chao suddenly stepped forward again, handed Ma Chao a secret report, and said softly: "Lord, the secret report of Chang'an just came." ”

Ma Chao immediately took it in his hand, and wanted to take a sneak look. But then after thinking about it, he deliberately unfolded the secret report in front of Cao Cao to read. And after reading the above content, Ma Chao unconsciously showed a satisfied smile, and even, if it wasn't for his efforts to restrain himself, he would have the excitement of clapping his legs on the spot to celebrate: a group of Ma family foxes, sure enough, at a critical moment, never dropped the chain!

But in Cao Cao's eyes, this scene made Cao Cao a little difficult to ride a tiger: Obviously, what Ma Chao received just now was a secret report from the shadow. But the irony is that the news of his own snake camp has not arrived for a long time. Moreover, looking at the joy on Ma Chao's face, it was not deliberately disguised at all.

Cao Cao has watched people for many years, and he has long had a lot of experience in observing words and feelings. As a result, after seeing that Ma Chao had obviously grasped the opportunity, he couldn't help but feel even more suddenly in his heart, and sighed that Lu Bu's dog/luck was no worse than his own!

However, at the moment, he has been forced into a corner by Chen Gong, and Cao Cao has no choice but to fight back, even if he can't coax Ma Chao Chen Gong, he can let himself have a step down: "Today, the political situation of the Han Dynasty is erosive and the Han family is shaky, so we should turn the tide and help the building to be assisted by the fallen talents." There are hussar generals in the west, famous families in the north, and Cao Mou is in Xuchang. ”

'What is this?!' Ma Chao was really a little confused when he heard Cao Cao suddenly say this nonsense. But after seeing Chen Gong's grim expression, he thought about it carefully and understood the deep meaning of Cao Cao's words: In one sentence, Cao Cao only said three people, he, himself, and Yuan Shao.

As we all know, although the relationship between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao has long been detached and tense, on the surface, they are still pretending, as if the two are too good to wear the same pants.

And in this sentence, Cao Cao grasped the righteousness of his 'Son of Heaven', and said that Yuan Shaogen is Miao Hong, but Ma Chao is just a 'brave' evaluation, obviously saying that Ma Chao does not follow the righteousness of the Han family. In addition, the meaning of his alliance with Yuan Shao is so slightly revealed, which implies that Ma Chao can withdraw and not be abducted by his unlucky father-in-law........

I really didn't see it, Cao Cao, this guy, is not only first-class in poetry, but also first-class in fighting and picking up girls, and in this sharp mouth, he is also a famous mouth!

It's just, do you care about all this twists and turns of nonsense? Especially after all the things that were done to hunt down and kill the emperor back then, would I still care about Cao Cao chirping crookedly?!

What's more, that bullshit emperor is not the unlucky and depressed poor emperor in history at all, but an unscrupulous crossing tumor like himself. You Cao Cao treats him as a treasure, and he still thinks your dog is nosy with a mouse!

Therefore, Ma Chao also learned from Cao Cao's appearance and laughed a lot. It's just that his laughter was too abrupt, and after laughing so much that even Chen Gong and Lu Bu were black-faced, he quickly gave up pretending to be coercive and said: "Cao Gong, when we met before, I thought that Cao Gong was a person who knew the current affairs and understood the situation, but I never thought that Cao Gong was also a person who sold his reputation and reputation, which really disappointed Chaochao!" ”

Cao Cao said that the Han family was loyal and righteous, but Ma Chao ridiculed Cao Cao for beating the Han family and scheming the world, and did not take the Han family in his eyes at all. Although these words were rebellious, Ma Chao said it vaguely, and he said it bluntly to a person as majestic as Cao Cao, which was really a small victory.

Subsequently, Cao Cao vaguely mentioned his alliance with Yuan Shao. Ma Chao smiled even more weirdly, no longer looked at Cao Cao, but shouted behind Cao Cao, "General Gao, don't hide it anymore." Since Yuan Shao has clearly supported Cao Gong, it must be understandable for me Ma Chao to support his father-in-law. It's just that in Dingtao's party, General Gao seems to know a lot of things that shouldn't be known, right? ”

As he spoke, Gao Ran had slowly revealed his figure. However, when Ma Chao said 'Dingtao', although Gao Ran's face was covered with a mask, he couldn't see his expression. But Ma Chao had already seen through his psychology from his slightly paused figure. As a result, he couldn't help but rejoice in his heart: there is a door now, and he is really right again!
