Ma Chao said angrily, "Xu Chu, don't bully me too much, dare to fight me to the death."

Xu Chu sneered and said, "How do you want to die!"

Regardless of Fazheng's dissuasion, Ma Chao rode out of the city alone on his horse.

"If you win, my life is yours. If I win, you withdraw from Xiliang."

Xu Chu said: "Whether we win or lose, our army will not retreat."

Chapter 539 Dian Wei Advises Ma Yunlu as a Matchmaker

"Xu Chu will fight or not!"

Ma Chao held his spear straight and glared at Xu Chu angrily. Unexpectedly, Cao Shuo's generals were not so single-handed anymore.

He and Cao Shuo's army have been confronting each other here for a month or two, but he has never seen Cao Shuo's generals fight one-on-one.

Xu Chu said: "One-on-one is fine, but you can't represent the soldiers in the city."

"Why can't I be their general?"

"Ma Teng has already surrendered, and the Xiliang Army is now also a soldier of our Wei State, so you cannot represent the soldiers in the city."

"Then I will represent myself and fight with you."

Even if he died, he, Ma Chao, would die violently.

Xu Chu yelled, and rushed forward with his sword in hand.

"when!"

The two fought hard, but Ma Chao suffered a little.

"Ma'er, you have good strength, but unfortunately you are too tender."

"Xu Chu, don't be arrogant."

The two fought for nearly [-] rounds before the battle, regardless of the outcome.

The generals felt a little itchy when they saw it, but they didn't expect Ma Chao to be so powerful.

However, after a hundred rounds, Ma Chao's physical strength gradually ran out, and he began to fall into a disadvantage.

"Tsk tsk!"

Dian Wei looked at Ma Chao and sneered a few times.

Xu Chu must have kept his hand, otherwise Ma Chao's weapon would not have lasted until now.

Although this Ma Chao has improved a bit compared to a year ago, the gap with them is still not small.

The main reason is that there is no one in Xiliang that he can let go of.

"Dangdangdang!"

Xu Chu attacked more than ten times in a row, but Ma Chao was powerless to defend himself, and was shot off his horse by Xu Chu.

"Hoo!" "Hoo!" "Hoo!"

Wei Jun began to celebrate Xu Chu.

"Kasong surrenders!"

Fazheng also chose to surrender without hesitation.

After all, Ma Teng had already surrendered, and Ma Chao was defeated again, so he had no reason to carry on.

Cao Shuo looked at the unhappy Ma Chao, and said, "Meng Qi, you are still young, and there is a lot of room for improvement in the future. You should learn more from the generals."

Ma Chao was speechless for a while, he felt that Cao Shuo was deliberately mocking him.

Guo Jia came to Cao Shuo with an account book and said, "My lord, the strength of the Xiliang Army has been calculated. There are [-] city guards and [-] regular soldiers."

Cao Shuo nodded, he couldn't use so many soldiers.

Right now, there are only a few counties left in Yizhou. In his opinion, Zhao Yun, Zhao Feng, and Yan Liang can handle it.

"Transport all the soldiers to Hanzhong for reorganization. Those who are unqualified will be given land and cattle, and let them settle in Liangzhou. Those who are qualified will be trained for three months, and then wait for dispatch."

"promise!"

"Our soldiers will stay in Liangzhou for the time being, and let them be responsible for the defense of the counties and counties. After these soldiers are reorganized, they will guard Xiliang with our soldiers."

"promise!"

Ma Teng led all the civil and military officials from Xiliang to the city of Hanzhong, and Cao Shuo prepared a very good courtyard for him.

"General Ma bowed down in Hanzhong for the time being, and helped me train Xiliang's soldiers, and at the same time watched them stay out of trouble. After the training of these soldiers is completed, I will still let them defend Xiliang."

"Thank you Your Majesty for giving them a way to survive."

Guo Jia looked at Cao Shuo and asked, "Your Majesty, are there any candidates for Liangzhou Mu?"

Cao Shuo glanced at the soldiers and selected a few candidates, Lu Bu, Huang Zhong, Gongsun Zan, and Xiahou Dun, but Xiahou Dun had already decided to conquer the Western Regions.

"General Han Sheng, Liangzhou will be handed over to you from now on. In this big tent, how many people do you choose to be your deputy?"

"Thank you my lord!"

Then, Huang Zhong asked Yan Xing, Huang Xu, Le Jin, and Ma Dai to assist him, and then asked the scribes Fazheng and Fayan father and son.

Out of six people, Huang Zhong picked three old Xiliang troops, which can be regarded as giving face to the Xiliang army.

Cao Shuo asked Huang Zhong to lead the soldiers to Guzang City to preside over the overall situation.

The battle in Liangzhou is over, and the next is the war in Shu.

Zhao Yun has already started to prepare boats to cross the river, presumably it won't be long before Mianzhu Pass will be captured.

Guo Jia asked, "Your Majesty, are we going to lead an army to support General Zhao?"

"No need, Zilong can deal with it. With Xia Houyuan and Wei Yan around, no one in Shu is their opponent."

Xi Zhicai said: "I heard that Wei Yan is not so obedient, and had some unpleasantness with General Zhao."

"Wei Yan is young and energetic. He has just returned to our army and is eager to make contributions. It is inevitable that he will do some irrational behavior. With Zilong here, I believe he can handle it well."

Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai saw that Cao Shuo was so fond of Zhao Yun, so they didn't say anything more. If Zhao Yun could handle this matter well, they might be able to win them a very good general.

They also knew about Wei Yan's ability, and he was indeed a good general.

Cao Shuo said: "Liu Zhang doesn't have many troops anymore. It depends on whether he intends to resist or surrender. Yan Yan was captured by our army, and the east gate of Shu was opened. Liu Zhang wants to preserve his power, so he must send a large army. Going to the eastern front, as long as there is a problem in one of the three fronts, the Kingdom of Shu will collapse."

Cao Shuo left Guo Jia and Lu Bu to train Xiliang soldiers in Hanzhong, and then led the army back to Luoyang.

Ma Chao took Ma Teng's family and returned to Luoyang with the brigade.

"Brother, I heard that Cao Shuo is the number one military general in the Wei Kingdom, how does he compare with Brother?"

Ma Chao's younger sister, Ma Yunlu walked up to Ma Chao and spoke cautiously.

Ma Chao scolded: "You have to call Your Majesty, if someone catches you, it will definitely not be easy for your father."

Xu Chu, who was walking beside Ma Chao, said, "Ma'er, don't use your thoughts to speculate on our Majesty. Your Majesty is very easy-going."

Ma Chao looked at Xu Chu speechlessly, is he really easy-going?

Their Xiliang General seems to have reused a few people, but he and his father Ma Teng are idle.

With such a heart, how can it be called easy-going.

"Brother, I think Miss Ma is very talented, how about I tell her a matchmaker?"

Dian Wei looked at Ma Chao with a smile.

Ma Chao said contemptuously, "No need."

"I can assure you, it's absolutely right!"

Ma Yunlu on the side blushed, this group of men was really annoying, the first time they met, they wanted to introduce her to her husband's family.

"No need." Ma Chao once again rejected Dian Wei's 'kindness'.

"There is only this chance. Girls always want to marry, and whoever they marry is not married."

Ma Yunlu asked: "Then who do you want to introduce to me? If it weren't for my eldest brother's bravery and my brother Fazheng's strategizing, I would never have married."

Dian Wei said with a smile: "Miss Ma is right, who in the world can compare with my Majesty of the Kingdom of Wei."

"What?" The Ma brothers and sisters looked horrified.

Dian Wei actually wanted to introduce Cao Shuo to them...

Chapter 540: I Raise Your Wife and Daughter

In the autumn of 195 A.D., the three armies of Wei State, with a total of 20 troops, surrounded Shu County.

Luo County, the only passageway in the north of Chengdu, is the gate to the north. Zhang Ren led an army of [-] to fight to the death with Zhao Yun's army of [-].

In Zhao Yun's big tent, Xiahouyuan, Wei Yan, Xiahouheng, Xiahouba, Gao Pei, Wu Yi and others all looked at Zhao Yun seriously.

After they captured Mianzhu, they led the army to the city of Luo County.

Xia Houyuan said: "Zilong, there are [-] troops in the city. Should we attack by force or bypass them and attack Xindu and Pixian County?"

Zhao Yun said: "Chengdu has not many troops. Zhang Ren's army is their pillar and their only hope. If we wipe out Luo County's army, maybe Liu Zhang will surrender directly."

Zhao Yun has already decided to attack by force. Zhang Ren has seen their siege equipment at Jiameng Pass and Mianzhu Pass, and he dares to defend the city to the death, which shows that he is stupid enough.

Fighting in Shu, there is only one way to delay their army, and that is to destroy all roads.

Siege engines and horses could not walk, and their infantry was slow, the only way to slow down their demise.

On the city wall of Luoxian County, Zhang Ren saw dozens of siege crossbows with big heads. With so many bed crossbows, he was afraid that he would kill them if he didn't die.

However, they can't retreat, Luo County is already the last defense, if Zhao Yun hits Chengdu, then they don't have to defend.

As long as Zhao Yun's army surrounds Chengdu to death, Liu Zhang will surrender within a month.

"Siege!"

With Zhao Yun's order, the siege horn sounded, and the Shu army in the city became tense. The next few hours may be the most difficult time in their lives.

Ten siege crossbows, twenty arrows loaded at the same time, like flagpoles, made the legs of the guarding soldiers tremble.

Looking at that posture, they didn't aim at the city gate at all, but aimed at the city wall.

Zhao Yun yelled again: "The last battle to unify China and Kyushu, all 120 arrows have been shot."

My grass... 120 sticks?

This is killing people.

They are going to be attacked by six waves of crossbow arrows, which is terrible.

Whoosh whoosh!

The first wave of crossbow arrows arrived.

Boom!

A certain city wall couldn't withstand such a big impact, and a big hole was directly knocked open. Although it didn't collapse directly, there was no way for people to stand above the hole.

Zhang Ren looked at the gap nervously. The gap was only two feet high from the opposite side. If the opponent attacked there by force, the pressure on the soldiers climbing the wall would be much less.

"Yang Huai, lead [-] soldiers, block the opening for me, and never let the opponent's soldiers come in."

"promise!"

In fact, Yang Huai didn't know what to do, who knew how many soldiers they would send to attack, and their armor was too perverted, and their weapons were too domineering, so they needed a lot of people to do it.

"put!"

The second wave of attack came in an instant, and this time the trajectory of the arrow remained unchanged.

"Boom!"

Another city wall couldn't bear the impact and fell down in response.

After the six waves of crossbow arrows, almost no part of Luo County's city wall was intact, and Zhang Ren went crazy.

This Nima can't defend at all. Now they have to face Zhao Yun's cavalry attack.

There are several city walls that are only more than one foot high, and they can't stop the horses from jumping at all.
