Chapter 716: Self-Doubter

Ma Gelong took the letter and looked at it, just glanced at it, his heart rose to his throat, don't look at it is the middle of winter, Ma Gelong's forehead, there are still dense beads of sweat, Liu Yin in the letter is very straightforward to put forward the conditions for peace, that is, to exchange his Ma Gelong's head.

If Peng Hu agrees, Ma Gelong's life will definitely be difficult to protect, I'm afraid he won't even have a chance to get out of the big tent, but from Peng Hu's attitude, Ma Gelong obviously has not agreed to Liu Yin's request, but despite this, he is still not very relieved, after all, Liu Yin's conditions are very tempting, and he can exchange peace for a head, and this kind of deal is very cost-effective.

Ma Gelong's eyes rolled, and he decided to retreat, he suddenly knelt down on one knee, and bowed his hand to Peng Hu: "King, since Liu Yin wants to be the head below, then I will fulfill him, as long as Ma can exchange his death for Lu Shuihu's long-term peace, then Ma will die well, and there will be no complaints." ”

At a critical time, Ma Gelong's mind is also very clear, if Peng Hu really has a murderous intent, then everything is no longer under Ma Gelong's control, no matter what Ma Gelong does and says, it is useless, but if Peng Hu is still hesitating or has not made a decision, then Ma Gelong's words are bound to impress Peng Hu, at least for the time being, there will be no more murderous intentions.

Peng Hu immediately smiled and said: "Such a detrimental plan, how to worry about it, not to mention that this king has regarded the leader of the horse as a brother, this head can be broken, blood can be shed, the friendship of brothers can not be lost, Brother Ma can rest assured, there is a day when this king is there, absolutely no one dares to touch a hair of Brother Ma." ”

Ma Gelong thanked him and said: "Thank you to the king, Ma will repay him with death." ”

Peng Hu smiled and said: "Brother Ma came just in time, I have ordered my subordinates to cook hot wine, there is nothing to do today, how about your brother when he gets drunk?" ”

At this time, Ma Gelong still had the heart to drink, so he said: "I have to come down in a hurry, and there is still something to do in the camp, so I can't accompany the king to feast and drink today, so let's bother another day." ”

Peng Hu no longer forced to stay, and said: "Now is a very moment, the left camp still needs to be guarded by Brother Ma wholeheartedly, you and I two big villages are leaning on each other, attacking and retreating, as long as you and I work together, we will be able to defeat Liu Yin." ”

Magron gave up and left.

Out of Peng Hu's warm tent, a cold wind blew, and Ma Gelong suddenly felt the cold air hit his body, but compared to the tension in the big tent, Ma Gelong was relaxed at this moment, he quickly got on his horse and left, and ran back to his camp as if flying.

Ma Gecheng was already waiting in the camp, and when he saw Ma Gelong coming back, he hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Big brother, what are the Shu people sending envoys for?" ”

Magron jumped off his horse and threw down the reins, and a groom next to him came to take Maglon's mount away, but Magron did not answer Magron's question directly, but took the lead to return to his own handsomeness.

Ma Gecheng looked puzzled, so he had to follow Ma Gelong back to the tent, but after entering the tent, Ma Gecheng obviously saw that Ma Ge's face was much more solemn and gloomy, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to ask again.

This time, it was Ma Gelong who took the initiative to speak: "Shu sent an envoy to see Peng Hu to negotiate peace, but their peace condition is to exchange my head." ”

Ma Gecheng was startled when he heard this, his face was full of shock, and he lost his voice: "Then did Peng Hu have agreed?" ”

Ma Gelong laughed gloomily and said, "If Peng Hu agrees, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to return to the Qiang camp." ”

Ma Gecheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, since Ma Gelong came back safely, then it proved that this trip to the big tent was just a false alarm.

Ma Gelong did not think so, although Peng Hu vowed to fight the enemy with Ma Lanqiang, but Ma Gelong knew very well that all of Peng Hu's statements were based on the interests of the Lu Shuihu people, and once the actual interests of the Lu Shuihu people were really damaged, Peng Hu would throw them away like a rag.

There is still self-knowledge of this point, even if Peng Hu is affectionate, it is impossible to get rid of the hatred in Ma Gelong's heart.

Before the Shu people used troops, the Ma Lanqiang and Lu Shuihu people did not hesitate to fight in order to fight for territory, and now the hands of both sides are stained with each other's blood, such an unforgettable hatred, Ma Gelong may not forget it for the rest of his life, and he also knows very well, don't look at Peng Hu's constant brotherly shouting, when they really break up, Peng Hu will show his fangs at the first time and bite the Malanqiang people fiercely.

There are no eternal friends in the world, there are no eternal enemies, and there are eternal interests, and if Peng Hu really gave up Maglong for the benefit of his own clan, it would not be surprising at all.

Therefore, in this matter, Magron warned himself that he must be vigilant, so that his head does not fall to the ground, and he still does not know what is going on.

In the past two days, Ma Gelong has been sending people to keep an eye on Lu Shuihu's camp, and he concluded that if Shu and Lu Shuihu start the peace process, they will definitely not send envoys only once, and there must be follow-up means.

Sure enough, as Ma Gelong expected, the next day Shu sent a messenger to Lushuihu's camp again, and judging from the time the messenger left, it was obvious that he stayed longer than when he first came.

Ma Gelong did not go to the Lushuihu camp recklessly this time, but just sat in his own camp and silently pondered.

Ma Gelong was originally a suspicious person, Shu repeatedly sent envoys to come, it must be the result of Peng Hu's acquiescence, if Peng Hu categorically refused, the Shu people may not send messengers again and again, Peng Hu did this, in Ma Gelong's view, must have another deep meaning.

If Peng Hu is hard-hearted, he can destroy the book and kill the envoy, Liu Yin dares to send a messenger to come, then kill him, if he dares to send two envoys to come, then kill him, then cut him off, so that Liu Yin's thoughts can be completely cut off. But Peng Hu didn't do this, it was obvious that he was still very interested in the olive branch thrown by Liu Yin, and the two sides communicated tacitly, but it seemed to push Ma Gelong to the cusp of the storm.

Ma Gelong was apprehensive, did not think about tea and dinner, and closely followed the development of this matter, originally thought that the contact between Shu and Lu Shuihu would come to an end, but what made Ma Gelong collapse was that on the third day, the Shu side still sent envoys to come, the number of people was more than the sum of the previous two times, and this time he stayed in Lu Shuihu's camp for a longer time.
