The Three Kingdoms become stronger when they get treasures

Chapter 368 People under the roof

It's a pity that Ma Chao is an impatient person, and he doesn't want to wait so long. He wants to get hold of an army as soon as possible to take revenge, but you don't have a stable territory, how can you have a stable army to help you fight?
Unless you go to be a bandit and burn, kill and loot everywhere, but how could Ma Chao, who claims to be "the prince of many generations", do such things that insult his ancestors!

Therefore, a person like Ma Chao is doomed to fail to achieve great things, because he himself is reckless and refuses to listen to other people's opinions, and he is especially concerned about his own face.Who is going to make a big deal out of face?If he could listen to Pound's advice, maybe it wouldn't be so miserable.

Just like Lu Bu back then, he was able to follow Chen Gong's strategy at first and almost killed Cao Cao, but later he became self-willed and felt that he was invincible, and was finally hanged by Cao Cao in Baimen Tower.

Zhang Wei was annoyed by Ma Chao's behavior. Is our Zhang family in charge of Hanzhong?You, Ma Chao, are so defiant now, are you really planning to seize power and plot rebellion?

So Zhang Wei wrote a letter of complaint and sent someone to Nanzheng to deliver it to Zhang Lu.

Although the Hanzhong Army guarded Yangping Pass, there are still many small roads that can bypass Yangping Pass and reach Nanzheng City.

Cao Cao chose a fine military academy and rewarded him heavily. He gave him a pair of gold heart armor, let him wear it next to his body, and took a letter written by himself. Nanzheng, go see Yang Song.

In this case, the envoy could not carry a large amount of gold and silver, so the gold armor was used as a token, because it is impossible for ordinary people to own such a valuable thing, but Cao Cao promised Yang Song great benefits.

Cao Cao said in the letter that he had heard of Yang Song's reputation for a long time, and had long wanted to invite Yang Song to take an important position in the court, but he never had the opportunity.Now he led the army here, in fact, just to catch the traitor Ma Chao. As long as Yang Song can find a way to get Zhang Lu to transfer Ma Chao back, when the army captures Hanzhong, Yang Song will be the prefect of Hanzhong.

Yang Song was overjoyed. In fact, when he learned that Cao Cao led an army of 30 to attack, Yang Song didn't think that Zhang Luneng could defend Hanzhong, so he had long planned to surrender, but he never had the opportunity to show his loyalty to Cao Cao.

Everyone didn't know each other before, but you suddenly said that you want to surrender to me, who knows if it's true or not?What if you fake surrender?
Now I have a chance, as long as I can help Prime Minister Cao handle this matter well, not only can I gain Cao Cao's trust, but I can also make great contributions. After Cao Cao defeats Zhang Lu and occupies Hanzhong, he will become the prefect of Hanzhong himself!

Wei Gong is such an awesome character, can he still speak without counting?

This Hanzhong has to belong to our Yang family in the end!
Yang Song said to the visitor: "Please also report to Wei Gong, but please rest assured, I will report to you if I have a good plan!"

After sending them away, Yang Song went to see Zhang Lu overnight and said that Ma Chao had the heart to support the soldiers and stand on his own. When he came to Hanzhong, he had no good intentions.

It happened that Zhang Lu got a report from Zhang Wei, saying that Ma Chao had repeatedly disobeyed the military order and led the army to attack privately. Now that Cao Jun had retreated, he was still not reconciled and insisted on chasing him. What if Cao Cao was attracted again?
In all fairness, Zhang Lu was very happy with Ma Chao's support at the beginning. The so-called three armies are easy to get, but a general is hard to find, especially a fierce general like Ma Chao, who once beat Cao Cao and fled.

Zhang Lu once thought that after having Ma Chao, he would no longer be afraid of Liu Zhang, and even Cao Cao would be able to resist him, so in order to win over Ma Chao, Zhang Lu wanted to marry his daughter to him.

But Zhang Lu himself is not a person with great talent and general plan, nor does he know how to employ people, otherwise he would not reuse a group of incompetent people from the Yang family. How can he have the ability to control a person like Ma Chao?
Later, under the persuasion of Yang Bai and others, Zhang Lu went back on his word and did not marry his daughter to Ma Chao. Now Ma Chao even hated Zhang Lu.However, Ma Chao is also careless and doesn't know how to endure. He has complained in front of others many times, and Zhang Lu heard it after a long time.

So Zhang Lu gradually became wary of Ma Chao and never let Ma Chao lead the army alone.Later, when Ma Chao was defeated by Zhang Wu, Zhang Lu felt that Ma Chao wasn't that good, and even if Ma Chao sincerely surrendered to him, he still couldn't beat ruthless people like Zhang Wu and Cao Cao.

Now that such a thing happened, Zhang Lu was furious and asked, "How to deal with Ma Chao?"

Yang Song said: "Ma Chao is brave and leads the army outside. If the responsibility is too hasty, he will rebel. It is better to pretend to let him lead the troops out of Zhenbazhong and deceive him to return. If this is the case, then Ma Chao and others will not be able to do it." Think about it!"

Therefore, Zhang Lu sent someone to pass Ma Chao back to Nanzheng, saying that he had made great contributions in resisting Cao Cao, and he was promoted to the governor of Bazhong, and led his troops to guard Bazhong.

Ma Chao led his army to pursue Cao Cao. At first Cao Jun did not fight, but retreated all the way. Later, Cao Cao ordered Xu Chu, Xiahou Dun, Xu Huang and others to lead troops to block Ma Chao.

Although Ma Chao and Pound were brave, their soldiers were not as good at fighting as Cao Jun, and Xu Chu and others were not vegetarians, so Ma Chao couldn't help Cao Cao for a while.

Cao Cao retreated to attract Ma Chao, and at the same time ordered Xia Houyuan and Zhang Xi to lead [-] light cavalry to take the path behind Yangping Pass.

When Ma Chao could not advance or retreat, he received Zhang Lu's order and planned to return to Nanzheng.

It is also good to be able to guard Bazhong. At least there is a piece of land where soldiers can be slowly recruited.

Pang De thought it was not that simple, but although Pang De had a little more brains than Ma Chao, he was still a general after all, and he couldn't tell what was wrong, nor could he think of a good way.

So Ma Chao returned to Yangping Pass first, handed over the army to Zhang Wei, and then returned to Nanzheng City with Pang De and Ma Dai.

But when they arrived at the gate of the city, Ma Chao and others were stopped from entering the city. Then someone came to convey Zhang Lu's new order, saying that Zhang Wu had already occupied Yizhou, and he was afraid that he would take the opportunity to attack Hanzhong, so he ordered Ma Chao to lead the army Go to Ningqiang area of ​​Jiameng County to guard against Zhang Wu's army who closed Jiameng Pass.

Ma Chao was furious and dared to tease him. When had Ma Mengqi been bullied like this? If Zhang Lu stood in front of him, he would dare to kill him with a sword.

But now the city wall is heavily guarded, the defenders have already stretched their bows and arrows, and there are still assembled troops at the gate of the city. Ma Chao and the others dare not turn their backs, so they have to accept the order temporarily and make plans later.

When Ma Chao received the army, he was almost blown up. This is not an army, it is simply a group of refugees!

There are only 3000 people, and most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, and they don't even have complete equipment. Let him lead such an army to resist Zhang Wu?

Ma Chao was about to explode on the spot, and rushed into the city to confront Zhang Lu face to face, but was stopped by Pang De firmly.

People have to bow their heads when they are under the eaves!

In the end, Ma Chao had no choice but to take his people away. Fortunately, Zhang Lu didn't finish the matter, and promised to supply Ma Chao with food and grass on time.
