Chapter 723 Doing the opposite

"General Pang chased and defeated the army for five hundred miles overnight. When he reached the foot of Wuwei City, he fell into the trick of Wuwei prefect Gai Xun, and was trapped under Wuwei City by Gai Xun and Cheng Yi. He was in danger!"

Ma Chao was taken aback when he heard the words, and everyone couldn't believe it.Although Pound's previous strategy was not too subtle, it was also unexpected, and the strategy of winning the title overnight was to take advantage of the victory to pursue a good opportunity.But the sudden decline in the battle situation is extremely shocking.

But this time Pang De sent troops, although there were only more than [-] soldiers, the soldiers were not as good as Ma Chao.However, it is also equipped with well-equipped cavalry of the Ma family and infantry of warriors of hundreds of battles. Even if Han Sui's [-] elite Liangzhou army is under his command, he is also capable of fighting.However, the defeat was so rapid overnight, Ma Chao couldn't help but think of a possibility: the enemy army was defeated on purpose to lure Pound's army to go deep alone!
After reacting for a while, Ma Chao calmed down.The more he was in such a situation, the calmer he became, and he asked, "You just said that Gai Xun, the prefect of Wuwei, defeated Pound?"

"That's right, that's the man." After the scout knelt down and said, seeing Ma Chao's gradually indifferent look, he couldn't help begging: "My lord, General Pang is in danger, you must send troops to rescue him!"

"Naturally, we have to save it." Ma Chao first comforted the loyal man, and then said, "Tell me carefully, how did Pang De fall into Gai Xun's scheme? Why do I feel like this name?" familiar?"

Before the scout could open his mouth, Xun You on the side already answered: "Your Majesty, it sounds familiar, because this person sent a letter of surrender to Ma's house before! He even sent troops to fight Cheng Yi before, and General Pang must have known about it too." This matter easily fell into Gai Xun's plan!"

"Gai Xun..." Ma Chao muttered the name of this person, and naturally recalled the history of this person in his mind.

Gai Xun, character Yuangu, was born in Guangzhi County, Dunhuang County. He was born in a family of officials for generations. He was an upright official in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.In ancient times, when making aspirations for characters, most of them paid attention to the cultivation of personal conduct.Therefore, the deeds left in history are only a few words, and the most are his deeds of being kind to his parents and paying attention to his own integrity and moral cultivation.And among them, regardless of personal grievances, he refused to take the opportunity to harm the governor of Liangzhou and engage in Su Zheng's affairs, so he was specially written about.

But Ma Chao knew that this person was definitely not just an upright official, but also a man of both civil and military skills.As early as during the reign of Emperor Ling, he led the army to rescue Xia Yu, the then captain of the Qiang guard.Later, he served as a post under Huangfusong.When Sun Jian persuaded Huangfu Song to kill Dong Zhuo, Gai Xun supported him.It can be seen from this that Gai Xun is by no means an ordinary person.

"When our army attacked Wuwei, Gai Xun pretended to surrender, and he surrendered a lot along the way. General Pang also knew that Gai Xun had secretly informed the Ma family and made the attack on Cheng Yi earlier, so he didn't care. But when he entered the city However, General Pang accidentally discovered that there was an ambush at the top of the city, and Gai Xun shouted at this time to kill the thieves and make meritorious deeds. In a short time, all the ambush at the top of the city came out. When General Pang hurriedly ordered the army to retreat, he was hit by two arrows in the chest. The chain armor blocked it, so the wound was not deep. At this time, Cheng Yi's defeated army rushed out from the rear, our army did not dare to stay, so we had to retreat..."

'Boom! With a bang, Ma Chao didn't care about the pain in his left arm, smashed the table beside him with his palm, and said angrily, "What are Fa Xiaozhi, Xu Yuanzhi, and Hua Ziyu doing?! The enemy army planned it step by step. The three of them, Didn't you notice something strange?!"

Seeing that Ma Chao was furious at this moment, the scout fell to the ground in fear.Later, as if thinking of something, Xun You asked again: "How many casualties are there in our army, and where are we stationed now?"

"At present, General Pang is in Bingtun Longyou, surrounded by heavy siege. There are less than five thousand soldiers, and there are many wounded. Because General Pang is injured, he dare not break out of the city. He only waits for the lord's reinforcements." The scout replied, presumably for those Pao Ze, who died in vain, also held a lot of grudges.

"One battle, just one battle!" After Ma Chao heard the words, his face was really gloomy with anger, and the wound on his left arm was soaked with blood because of the previous force: "In one battle, more than [-] horses from the Ma family were destroyed. Pang De, Fazheng, Xu Shu, Hua Xin... Even if I save you and others, I will never let you go lightly!"

"No, it's not..." The scout listened to Ma Chao's words, and even though he was too restrained by Ma Chao's aura to speak out loudly, he still plucked up the courage to argue: "My lord, I didn't lose more than 2000 horses, but I was scattered a few times." Thousands of cavalry. Presumably after learning the news that General Pang is stationed in Longyou, there will be [-] of them back."

"Huh?" Ma Chao was taken aback, he didn't understand what the scout said at all.The scout also understood that he had misunderstood Ma Chao, and quickly explained: "General Pang pursued all the way, and felt that this matter was too strange. And Xu Junshi and Hua Junshi also reminded the general not to be careless. Under the leadership of General Wei, General Li, General Ma, and General Zhang, the Xu Army Division and the Hua Army Division were ordered to serve as staff officers. At this time, they should be on the way to rescue General Pang..."

"That is to say, when Pound chased him, he used Ma's iron cavalry for speed?" Ma Chao understood now, but at the same time, his expression became even more annoyed.Because he thought that it was not Gai Xun and Cheng Yi who caused this fiasco, but Fazheng!

Fazheng is young and vigorous, seeing how handsome the Ma family is now, he can't help but get up to win.As a result, he set up a plan to confuse the enemy army before, and when the enemy army was defeated, he coveted great achievements and encouraged Pound Qingqi to advance aggressively, so that Pound fell into the enemy's plan and was defeated in the city of Wuwei!

Is it because of factional disputes showing signs at this time?

Or is it that Fazheng, who is competitive and competitive, is destined to be a cancer that will cause internal conflicts?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, Ma Chao couldn't help getting up and walking back and forth several times.At this time, Guo Jia, Xun You, Yang Fu, and Yang Xiu all guessed why Ma Chao was angry.Guo Jia saw that the three were still hesitating about how to persuade them, so he took a step forward and said, "Meng Qi doesn't need to worry. He is filial, straightforward, resourceful, self-reliant, and he is only 17 years old this year. After this defeat, he will surely achieve extraordinary things in the future." The important thing at this time is how to break Liangzhou's defeat!"

As soon as Guo Jia said, Ma Chao's mood eased a little. After sitting down quietly again, he set his sights on the map accompanying the army, pointed to Longyou, and said, "Although Pang De was defeated, the main force still exists. With good generals and counselors as backup, we can wait for a while. The most important thing now is to get a glimpse of the inside story of Liangzhou's drastic changes, turn defeat into victory in one fell swoop, and completely capture Liangzhou!"

At that moment, Ma Chao told everyone what Lao Zhang said about Liang Dao.After the four people heard the words, their faces were all gloomy. Obviously, they also saw that there were many inside stories about the upheaval in Liangzhou that they didn't know.

After a long time, it was still Guo Jia who stepped forward and asked the scout to step back before saying: "It's both bright and dark, it's time to test the Ma family. And some premonitions I didn't expect today have all come true...but Now, Jia is more interested in the person behind the scenes."

"Brother, if you have any good ideas, just speak up!" Hearing Guo Jia's words, Ma Chao obviously felt that Guo Jia had a plan in mind, so he couldn't help asking.

"We don't need to guess who the person behind the scenes is. We just need to know his purpose for doing all this!" When Guo Jia said this, he looked at Ma Chao with shining eyes, and finally pointed his hand and said: "It's just to plot against the lord!"

With a flash in Ma Chao's eyes, following Guo Jia's guidance, he began to think, and tentatively said: "Pang De is trapped in Longyou, but the enemy army just surrounded him and didn't swallow him quickly, presumably it was to lure me into rescue. And if our army leaves lightly, then Longxi County will definitely not be safe, and the enemy army can calmly slaughter me..."

"Since you know the enemy's intentions, why don't you do the opposite?" Xun You also saw the key point, looked at Ma Chao and said, "My lord, can you go into danger alone this time?"

At this time, Ma Chao had already guessed everyone's tricks, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "Born in troubled times, princes are always in danger. Using your body as bait is exactly what Chao wanted. I want to see what's behind the scene." Who is the layer-by-layer layout person?!"
