The Rebirth of Lu Bu in the Legend of the Heroes of the Later Han Dynasty

On the ground covered with yellow sand, galloping was a snow-white horse. The horse was one foot long from head to tail, eight feet tall from hoof to spine, which was a head taller than an ordinary war horse.

The young warrior on the horse has a handsome face. Although he has fled, it is difficult to conceal the heroic spirit exuding from his body. This is the Western Domain Ju Zhaoye Jade Lion and its owner, Xiliang Jin Ma Chao.

It had been a day and a night since Ma Chao fled Longxi County. In order to avoid the pursuers, he did not drink any water. The arrow wounds on his body caused him to bleed continuously. His body's endurance had reached its limit.

At this time, the sound of neat horse hooves came from the distance. Ma Chao clenched the tiger-headed golden gun in vigilance, forced himself to support his body, and prepared to fight to the death.

"The white-robed general in front seems to be the eldest brother." It was Ma Tie who spoke. He saw Ma Chao's crumbling body and holding a spear.

Ma Teng looked closely and saw that it was really his son, but he seemed to be seriously injured.

The wind and sand were getting bigger and bigger, and Ma Chao couldn't see clearly whether the troops in front were friends or foes. He touched the Zhaoye Jade Lion and said softly, "Old man, it seems that we are going to die here today." After that, he said again Unable to hold on, his vision went dark and he fell to the ground.

Seeing his son fall, Ma Teng galloped to Ma Chao, hugged him, and shed tears, "My son, you have to hold on, father can't lose you." Seeing the sharp arrow on Ma Chao's body, Ma Teng was heartbroken. Broken, he quickly asked his soldiers to take Ma Chao down for treatment. The Liangzhou army stopped advancing and camped on the spot.

The temperature difference between day and night in Liangzhou is huge, especially in the open plains. Autumn is already here, and the autumn wind blows like a razor blade on the face, which is painful.

The soldiers huddled together, lit fires, and maintained body temperature. For them who had been fighting in the northwest all year round, this was already commonplace.

Ma Teng waited anxiously in the tent. The genius doctor Zhang Ji was treating Ma Chao. He pulled out a total of three sharp arrows from Ma Chao's body. Each sharp arrow penetrated deep into the skin. Fortunately, it did not hurt the heart. The arrows were not coated with poison, otherwise even gods would be hard-pressed to save them.

Zhang Ji (Zhang Zhongjing) finally breathed a sigh of relief after rescuing him. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned to Ma Teng and said, "The major general's injury is very serious. Fortunately, his physique is different from ordinary people." , I just rescued him from the hell gate, he needs to rest for half a year, and he can't go to the battlefield again during this half year."

When Ma Teng heard that his son was not in danger, he saluted Zhang Ji and said, "Sir, you are worthy of being our great doctor. If it weren't for him, my son's life would not be guaranteed. Thank you for your wonderful hand in rejuvenating him."

Zhang Ji wiped his blood-stained hands and said, "It is the duty of a medical practitioner to save lives and heal the wounded. The general must remember what I told you. You will not allow the major general to go to the battlefield again within half a year. I have to go to Hebei to practice medicine. Goodbye." Pass."

Ma Teng wanted to keep Zhang Ji in the military camp. He knew Zhang Ji's abilities. He had cured the typhoid fever of the frontier soldiers in recent years. Zhang Ji's reputation spread all over the world and he was called a miracle doctor. So there was "North Zhang Ji Nan Hua Tuo".

Zhang Ji said, "My ancestors joined the Mohist family, and the medical skills have been passed down to me for the 38th generation. Now Juzi has an order for Mohists from all over the world to gather in Hebei. I dare not disobey, and Hebei has a large population." , the climate is changeable, and it is a place where typhoid fever is easy to break out. I went here firstly to follow Juzi's order, and secondly, to save lives and heal the wounded, which is also my duty as a doctor."

Seeing that Zhang Ji was determined to leave, Ma Teng no longer wanted to stay and asked someone to bring gold to reward Zhang Ji.

Ma Teng asked Ma Xiu to send Zhang Ji out of the military camp, and then asked Ma Tie to find Han Sui.

After half a cup of tea, Han Sui arrived at Ma Teng's military camp. Behind him was a nine-foot-tall man with a green face and fangs, and a tiger's back and waist. This man was the Liangzhou warrior Yan Xing.

When Han Sui saw Ma Chao lying motionless, he asked Ma Teng, "How is Meng Qi's injury?"

Ma Teng said, "My life is safe now, but I won't be able to go to the battlefield again for a short time. Cao Cao's army is coming with great force. Without Meng Qi, I'm afraid we won't be able to withstand it."

Han Sui said, "Brother, don't panic. Our total strength is 50,000, and fighting on the plains is conducive to cavalry. Yan Xing is also a brave general in Liangzhou. All the eight lieutenants under my command are good at fighting. Why fear Cao Cao?" thief."

Ma Teng said, "I'm not afraid of a head-on confrontation. Cao Cao is full of tricks. I'm just afraid of his strategies."

Han Sui said, "I have secretly discussed with Zhang Lu of Hanzhong. He will mobilize 500,000 Wu Dou Rice Cultists from Hanzhong to attack Cao Cao's army from behind so that they cannot see each other. Our army will then charge forward and annihilate them with Liang." within the state.”

Ma Teng said, "Does Zhang Lu have such great ability? Hanzhong has Xia Houyuan's elite cavalry. I heard that Cao Cao's younger brother is both wise and brave, and is a famous general in the world. I don't think Zhang Lu can win."

Han Sui said, "Brother, you don't know. Although Xiahou Yuan is strong, he has only five thousand soldiers, and he is not on good terms with the Hanzhong gentry. Zhang Lu's Five Pecks of Rice Cult has absorbed many Taiping believers from that time, and also has the strong support of the Yang family, a local gentry." , Xiahou Yuan will be defeated."

Hearing what Han Sui said, Ma Teng was relieved. He discussed with Han Sui and decided to wait for the arrival of Cao Cao's army.
