Chapter 539: The Heart Goes Back
After the war, there was chaos everywhere.
The Xiliang Army went through various routines such as uprising, counter-uprising, switching, and reversal overnight, and the mood went up and down like a roller coaster, and there was no longer the arrogance of the past, and honestly cleaned up the battlefield.
Those who should be treated are treated, those who should be burned are burned, and those who should be buried are buried. And Ma Chao and other major generals in Xiliang could not be seen.
Yang Qiu and other seven generals went through the matter of serving Cao Cao, and then rebelled against Han Sui, knowing that they should pick up thick thighs and avoid disasters.
Ma Chao is powerful and cool, and his temperament is hot. They followed Han Sui to Cao Cao and almost killed him. Now that the crisis has been resolved, it is time for reckoning. They didn't think they could escape Ma Chao's palm at this moment. The only way out is to hug the thighs of the Xanadu Army.
So the seven generals couldn't take care of much, and they worked hard to run to the Xanadu army camp all day long. Find this one to drink today, and find that one to go to the banquet tomorrow. Everyone from Zhao Yun and below was harassed all over again.
Zhao Yun and the others will be overwhelmed.
The vulture bone is the most direct, the bull's eye is glaring, the wine and meat are left, and the others hurry up, otherwise the bones of the eight iron thistles will be pestled to the ground, and whoever is not afraid of death will continue to come.
Zhao Yun and the others are educated after all, they are not rough people like vulture bones, and they can't pull down their subordinates and threaten Yang Qiu and others with violence. Every time I am annoyed by being harassed, I just say that the lord is not there, and this matter has to wait for the lord to decide in person.
Yang Qiu and the others still didn't give up, they stayed in the camp of the Xanadu Army all day long, if outsiders saw it at this time, they would never suspect that they were not a member of the Xanadu Army.
On the contrary, Ma Chao's mood was much worse.
Cao Cao and Han Suili should cooperate with the outside world, and the capture of Chang'an was fruitless, so they retreated to Tongguan, with a posture that you don't come to find fault, and I won't make trouble, and built Tongguan like an iron bucket.
Using Tongguan as the boundary to divide the territory of the two sides, if it is to be replaced by the past, although Ma Chao is unwilling, he is also satisfied with this result. However, at this moment, he was not in the mood at all.
After all, Xiliang is not as rich as the Central Plains, and there are many talents. Han Sui has become a prisoner, Ma lost his life at the hands of Yang Qiu, and became a vote of others, and he and Ma Dai were left in the Xiliang Army to support the overall situation, and they were so tired.
Look at Cao Cao's side, Wu has Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xu Chu and other battlefield generals, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan brothers were ordered to sit in the Central Plains and confront Sun Jian across the river from Jiangdong. Recently, there have been more literary appointments, Zhu Ling and other newcomers have risen, and Cao Zhang, Cao Zhen and other sons and nephews have become famous. The text has Xun You, Cheng Yu, Liu Ye and other well-known strategists.
No matter from which point of view, Ma Chao does not see the prospect. At this time, Cao Cao insisted on holding Tongguan and could not come out, and after he synthesized all aspects of information afterwards, he could not help but admit that it was all thanks to the blessing of the Xanadu Army.
was ashamed of Zhao Yun and other generals, but now he relied on the face of others to keep Chang'an, plus Yang Qiu and other seven generals put all their hearts into hugging the thigh of the Xanadu Army, Ma Chao was even more shameless, and borrowed wine to drown his sorrows all day long.
In contrast, Ma Dai did not have such a strong sense of self-esteem after all, and focused on reorganizing the army, launching a great purge, and cutting off the remnants of Han Sui's diehard loyalists in the army. When he came back from his busy work, he was shocked.
In just a few days, the brother, who was once as dazzling as a god, turned out to have deep eyes, blank eyes, and a scruffy beard, looking very depressed.
"Why is my brother so depressed?" Ma Dai was so anxious that he snatched the wine jar in Ma Chao's hand and threw it out.
The wine jar cracked, which made Ma Chao regain a little sobriety, and when he saw Ma Dai coming, he smirked drunkenly: "Come and drink with someone." As he spoke, he grabbed a wine jar, patted open the mud, and poured it.
Ma Dai was in a hurry and hurriedly took down the wine jar.
He was also helpless. Ma Chao became so depressed, and he didn't know why. However, the army is impermanent, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and how to do it for a while. This time it's planted, and next time it's time to regroup and fight again. However, the eldest brother of his own family has too strong self-esteem and can't be excited.
"You're lying to me too?" Ma Chao was seized of the wine jar one after another, and he was immediately furious, staggered to his feet, and was about to grab Ma Dai.
"Brother......" Ma Dai was heartbroken, raised his hand and waved Ma Chao's big hand, and knocked him unconscious with a knife blow.
At this time, a young woman came out from behind tremblingly. When Ma Dai saw that it was his sister-in-law, he suddenly felt a headache, and hurriedly handed over Ma Chao to the Dong family, and turned around to flash people.
"Uncle stays." Where could a weak woman in the Dong family help Ma Chao, and stopped Ma Dai urgently.
Ma Dai couldn't, so he had to say a crime, picked up Ma Chao and went to the back hall to settle down, and then immediately said goodbye and prepared to flash people. Those who should avoid suspicion still have to avoid suspicion.
"Uncle stays." Dong Shi stopped Ma Dai again urgently. These days, Ma Chao has been borrowing wine to drown her sorrows, and she has been closed to the door, she is so scared that she can't do it, but she doesn't dare to ask.
Ma Dai is not stupid, he simply told the truth 1510, and finally reluctantly hugged his fists and said: "I also ask my sister-in-law to comfort my brother, and I can regroup in the future, and I can take revenge." ”
Dong didn't say anything, but asked weakly: "Cao Cao is afraid of the prince's tiger and does not dare to raise troops." Why don't you vote for the prince? ”
Ma Dai was stunned.
He never thought of returning to Lu Yao. He hopes to follow Ma Chao to fight for the Ma family. But when Dong mentioned this, he couldn't help but be a little shaken.
Yes, why not take this opportunity to surrender to Lu Yao?
King Zhuya has a lot of talents and famous generals. Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and the three generals of the vulture bones are not to mention, they have already become famous. But the eight generals such as Zhang Jaw and many of their Xiliang elite soldiers did not fall behind at all, and they insisted until Zhao Yun and others came to their rescue, how domineering they were. And this is just some of the many generals in Xanadu City.
It seems like...... It seems that it is not bad to serve King Zhuya.
Ma Dai lost his mind for a moment, and then saw Dong's timid eyes, his face couldn't help but burn slightly, and he threw the pot to Ma Chao: "This matter still needs to be decided by my brother himself." The younger brother took his leave. ”
Dong didn't dare to stay, and waited beside him nervously. It seems that I said the wrong thing, what should I do? It's scary.
After a long time, Ma Chao woke up quietly, and saw Dong's little face full of nervousness, sitting on the couch and wandering, and couldn't help but feel a headache. This wife is good for everything else, but her temperament is softer and she likes to think crankily. He shook his head, ready to open his mouth to ask Dong to make him some fish soup to sober up, but he didn't want to hear Dong muttering to himself.
He was curious and listened intently. When he heard this, he was furious. Dong was actually considering his words, trying to persuade himself to serve Lu Yao. Just as he was about to get angry, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The general trend of the Xiliang Army has gone, and instead of fighting the trapped beasts, it is better to drop Lu Yao. Anyway, there is a girl who is also a member of Lu Yao's harem, and she will not be wronged in the future. More importantly, you can use the Xanadu Army to avenge the murder of your father and brother.
Ma Chao was lying on the couch, full of thoughts. And at this moment, a group of soldiers and horses slowly opened outside Chang'an City, and the leading flag was embroidered with two golden characters.
Zhu Ya.
