Three Kingdoms: Bandit Cao, let go of that woman!

Chapter 274 The Suspected Zhuge Liang

"General, this is Cao thief's trick, you must not fall for it!"

Zhuge Liang saw that Ma Chao was going to fight out, and immediately stopped him hoarsely.

How could his voice spread so far in the chaos, he hurriedly said to Han Sui next to him.

"General Han, hurry up and lead your troops to support Meng Qi, otherwise, he will surely die!"

Han Sui also understood this truth, and hurried forward with the soldiers behind him, trying to use the advantage of the crowd to suppress Cao Jun's attack.

It's a pity that Cao Peng above the camp saw what Han Sui meant.

Immediately ordered, "Shoot over there, don't give them any chance!"

Under the command of Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun and others, all the crossbow soldiers aimed their crossbows at Han Sui's army again.

Ma Chao's army has been crippled, and the wave of harvest just now took away some of her remaining strength.

The rain of arrows shot out and blocked Han Sui, blocking the advance of the Qiang army led by Han Sui.

He was close to Ma Chao, but he couldn't rescue him. Han Sui knew that the opponent's strategy was to achieve this goal.

"Hey, retreat!"

Han Sui made a decisive decision. He thought it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, and he couldn't continue to consume it.

When Cao Peng saw that Han Sui was going to withdraw, he immediately smiled, feeling refreshed by winning a gamble.

In fact, the arrows of the Liannu were almost used up.

If the opponent still gritted his teeth and continued to attack, he didn't have the confidence to continue to deal with it.

Looking at Ma Chao who was still planning to continue fighting with him, Cao Peng picked up the carved bow next to him, bent the bow and set an arrow, and shot out with a sharp blade, mixed with the sound of piercing through the air.

"Ma Meng Qi!"

Cao Peng shouted again at the same time. Ma Chao, who was now fighting the enemy bravely, looked up when he heard Cao Peng's shout.

As a battle-tested general, Ma Chao heard the sound of arrow feathers piercing through the air to identify his position.

Turning sideways, the golden feather arrow brushed against his shoulder and shot out.

Even with the barrier of armor, it still made him feel hot.

I didn't expect Cao Peng to be so good at archery.

"Cao Peng, what do you mean?!"

Ma Chao felt a little strange. If Cao Peng hadn't called him just now, the sword might have shot into his arm.

But Cao Peng did this on purpose. Isn't this intentional to let him?
There are only two possibilities, Cao Peng did it out of good intentions, or Cao Peng was humiliating him.

According to what Zhuge Liang said before, from the perspective of Cao Peng's personality, Cao Peng's purpose of doing this is to humiliate him.

So Ma Chao glared at Cao Peng angrily, and immediately rode back.

He knew that if he continued to be brave now, he would definitely die, and it was not worthwhile to lose his life in vain.

The so-called keeping the green hills there is not afraid of running out of firewood, and he also understands this truth.

"retreat!"

With his few soldiers left, Ma Chao retreated slowly.

Cao Peng looked at Ma Chao and couldn't help laughing.

Presumably the defeat this time severely frustrated this person's arrogance.

"Anmin, don't we take advantage of the victory to chase after him?" Cao Cao asked.

Cao Peng smiled and said, "No, Ma Chao definitely has a strong man in his management, otherwise he would not be so confident, we shouldn't fight now."

Cao Cao's biggest problem is suspicion. Now that Cao Peng has said so, he has no other opinions.

"All right……"

Who told him that he was scared by Ma Chao before.

……

This is the first time Ma Chao has been defeated since the Northern Expedition.

Returning to the camp dejectedly, he saw that Zhuge Liang, who was full of embarrassment, had come out to meet him.

To be honest, he is 10 points angry now, but it's a bit bad to reprimand Zhuge Liang.

"Master, what is going on here?"

Although I don't intend to reprimand Zhuge Liang, I still plan to ask a few questions.

It wasn't planned well before. It is impossible for the opponent's city to have so many defenders, but now they are caught off guard. What's going on?

Zhuge Liang was thinking about what to say, he couldn't say that Cao Jun was hiding on purpose!
"It's really my fault for being too careless..." Zhuge Liang said with a sigh.

Ma Chao's originally ruddy complexion had turned dark now.

"I'm afraid it's just his excuse. This time, it's a conspiracy from beginning to end."

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang turned his head in surprise, only to find that Han Sui had already surrounded the battalion commander's gate with his troops, looking like he was about to arrest him.

"General, why is this?" Zhuge Liang asked.

Han Sui sneered and said, "Zhuge Liang, you still have the face to say, whether it's the previous secret letter or the current matter, I'm afraid this is just your conspiracy from beginning to end!"

Zhuge Liang really wanted to kneel down and admire him.

Ma De, your brain hole is too big.

However, the most urgent task now is naturally to keep his head first.

"General Han, if I am a spy of Cao Jun, why wait until now, then I am afraid that General Meng Qi will not be able to come back just now!"

What Zhuge Liang said actually made some sense.

"General, when we were attacking the city just now, I found that the enemy army seemed to have a powerful weapon in their hands. It was that strange bow and crossbow that made us unable to lift our heads."

The person who spoke was Pang De who was wounded, Zhuge Liang really wanted to cry, and someone spoke a fair word for her in the morning.

"This is a bow and crossbow, how could it produce such a powerful arrow!" Han Sui still didn't believe it.

You must know that Xiliang people are good at archery, which can only be achieved through hard work and hard work since childhood.

How could it be possible that the Han people could be stronger than them by using certain weapons.

Ma Chao waved his hand to stop Han Sui and said, "I believe that Mr. Wolong will never betray me, uncle please believe him!"

Han Sui could only nod when he saw what Ma Chao said.

"That's good. I still have some Qiang soldiers who are not afraid of death. Let them attack the city again. What kind of secrets are Cao Jun hiding? You might as well find out." Han Sui said.

After Zhuge Liang listened to his opinion, he also agreed.

"The general is right. I believe that after using so much kendama, there should be no more leftovers. Let the Qiang soldiers make another surprise attack, and it will surely succeed!"

Since everyone's opinions were unified, Han Sui immediately issued a military order, and the Qiang soldiers set off after learning the order.

Han Sui went to arrange the battle, but he didn't mention anything about the fact that he almost tied Zhuge Liang up and beheaded just now.

Zhuge Liang looked aggrieved at Ma Chao, who knew that Han Sui had gone too far this time.

So he comforted Zhuge Liang and said: "Sir, my uncle has no intentions, so don't be as knowledgeable as him..."
