Three Kingdoms New Malaysia Super League

Chapter 781 Using princes as pawns
"Hey, look quickly, the idiot riding the yellow horse in front is Cao Cao. My lord general, a great achievement is in front of you, hurry up and catch Cao Cao!"

Ma Chao still said these words in a funny tone.But after Diao Chan heard it, she didn't smile again, instead she asked in surprise, "Cao Cao did use this trick to deceive the captain, but the concubine couldn't figure it out, how did my husband guess it?"

"It's actually very simple," Ma Chao pretended to his subordinates many times, and Ma Chao was quite experienced in dealing with such incidents.Therefore, he looked inscrutable again, and explained: "As long as Cicada understands some basics of psychology and thinks of herself as Cao Cao, then she will naturally be able to guess Cao Cao's reaction at that time."

"When asked by the captain, Cao Cao had only two options: I don't know and I'm in the front. If I don't know, then the captain will probably take Cao Cao's head off in a fit of anger. The risk is very high, like Cao Cao. A quick-witted person would definitely not answer this way; and the one with the greatest chance of survival is to answer "Cao Cao is in front", because in this way, the captain may feel that he has provided such important information and show mercy. Since Wei felt that he had found Cao Cao, he was naturally anxious to catch up with Cao Cao, and had no time to argue with his "unknown pawn". Therefore, I concluded that Cao Cao had no choice but to coax the captain."

"Your husband really understands people's hearts and predicts things like a god." Diao Chan sighed softly, and added: "If what my husband said, then the captain left Cao Cao and chased after him. But Cao Cao had no time to wipe off his cold sweat, so he turned around quickly. Breaking out from the fire at the east gate, he encountered two tiger guards, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and fought a bloody path. But even so, when breaking through, Cao Cao was injured by a wooden beam and injured his left palm, burning his beard and hair. Jiao, almost fell off the horse, he really lost a handful of rice by stealing the chicken."

"However, after Cao Cao was wounded and narrowly escaped death this time, he also set up a plan to cheat his death, attracting Feng Xiangong, who underestimated the enemy, to attack, killing Feng Xiangong and returning in defeat, but it was a blessing in disguise. Right?........." Ma Chao took it for granted, and told the next incident.

But as soon as the words came out, Diao Chan's complexion changed again. She touched Ma Chao's head and said doubtfully, "Husband, isn't this the plot of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" again?"

"What? Didn't Cao Cao feign death?!" Ma Chao looked embarrassed, and suddenly had the urge to strangle Luo Guanzhong to death: Old man Luo, you are too good at making things up, right? !Could it be that Cao Cao made up the plot randomly in order not to lose his reputation as a great military strategist because he was pitiful this time over and over again? !

But if you fabricate it, just fabricate it, why are you fabricating it so vividly, saying that Cao Cao was overjoyed and escaped disaster.Everyone greeted Cao Cao, and Cao Cao laughed and said, "It's not a hindrance, it's not a hindrance. This time, Lu Bu was tricked by that idiot again, but next time I must show such a bird."

You made up such a nose and eyes, and it fits Cao Cao's character so well, it's simply deceiving readers' feelings! !You are such a sucker for writing novels, does your family know?

"After Cao Cao survived a catastrophe, there was no scheme to cheat his death at all. However, the concubine felt that if Cao Cao could come up with such a plan, it might really make Feng Xiangong suffer... From this point of view, the husband and the military Talent, far surpasses Cao Cao!"

What he said made Ma Chao's face turn red, but Ma Chao didn't have any words to reply, so he could only laugh and say, "Then what happened between Lu Cao and Lu Cao?"

"Attack Feng Xiangong twice, but he was defeated by Feng Xiangong and Chen Gong, and his life was hanging by a thread. But Cao Cao really deserved to be a hero in his life, and his fighting spirit was not defeated at all. After returning to the base camp, Cao Cao immediately organized the retreating army and made Siege weapons, come to the city of Puyang again, ready to attack the city!"

"Huh? Cao Cao is such a dick too?" After hearing what Diao Chan said, Ma Chao couldn't help but sigh with emotion: One's success is indeed doomed.It would be unreasonable for a person like Cao Cao, who has been frustrated repeatedly, not to leave a strong mark on the stage where the heroes compete in the future.

Just by hearing about it, one can imagine Cao Cao's posture at that time, as if it was not he who was almost killed but Lu Bu.Don't talk about Lu Bu and Chen Gong, even if it was him, he would be scared stupid.I have seen a lot of people who are not afraid of death, but I have never seen such a person who is not afraid of death; and when encountering such a person who is not afraid of death, he can only save his own life, right?

Sure enough, what Diao Chan said afterwards was also that Chen Gong and Lu Bu could not estimate the strength of Cao Cao's army, so they stopped fighting with Cao Cao and ordered to start defending the city.Next, the fight is the battle of food and morale.Although the morale of both parties is neither high nor low, the military rations should gradually be exhausted.Coupled with the arrival of severe winter, the two sides can only continue to confront each other patiently. Up to now, no more news has come.

"In this way, there is no major problem with Feng Xiangong for the time being?" Ma Chao's expression became serious at this time. He turned to the sand table simulation map, looked at the vast territory of the Ma family, and said, "Hanzhong Zhang Luna side, with economic cooperation as a tactic to slow down the army, has carried out economic aggression against Hanzhong step by step, cutting flesh with soft knives; Jingzhou Liubiao, with Yuan Shu staring at him outside, and soldiers and warriors seizing power inside, has no ability to enter Tuma's house for the time being; Here in Yanzhou... until more than a year, there will be no major changes."

"More than a year?" Diao Chan couldn't help frowning when he heard Ma Chao's words, and said, "Husband, it's already more than five months now, and in a while, the autumn harvest will come. Feng Xiangong and Cao Cao are all looking forward to it." The crops in Yanzhou are already ready to move, so how can you talk about it for more than a year?"

"Because the feast of locusts we have enjoyed should be tasted by Cao Cao!" Ma Chao said firmly: historical events can be changed, but some things, such as natural disasters, are absolutely impossible to change!
Historically, Lu Bu came to Yanzhou in [-].But with Ma Chao's step-by-step promotion, the incident in Yanzhou was almost a year earlier.And Cao Cao and Lu Bu, after those confrontations, entered the stage of rest and confrontation after the locust plague came in [-].

Now, although the two armies are still in this stalemate, it is because of the cold winter and military rations.And then, after the natural disaster, the two families don't have to fight to the death: whoever can survive the locust disaster will be the master of Yanzhou!
It can be imagined that after a year of development, the Ma family already has enough food reserves.The purpose of Ma Chao's hard work before was to wait until this period came - as long as he helped Lu Bu survive the locust plague, Cao Cao had no choice but to perish!
In war, sometimes, there is no need for swords and soldiers at all.An outstanding military conspirator, in his eyes, natural disasters and man-made disasters are all unparalleled weapons!
To deal with Hanzhong, use the economy; to deal with the Xiongnu, use the beauties and the Tuoba tribe; !
In other words, Ma Chao, who is outside the chessboard, has already sublimated to the realm of jumping out of the chessboard, playing Hanzhong, Bingzhou, and Yanzhou with one hand behind the scenes! !

But now, all he has to do is wait.When Hanzhong's economy is completely dependent on the Ma family; when Fu Luo bows his proud head and kneels in front of himself to repent;The territory of the Ma family will usher in another great leap forward!
And in this spare period, what Ma Chao thinks of is just to go to Jiangxia: there, his doubts and past life plots are still buried there, he can't turn a blind eye to it, and he can't let it go...

However, before that, he still needs to do one thing well.

As a result, he turned around, looked at Diao Chan affectionately again, and said, "Cicada, I have arranged everything. You said that you would promise me a request..."

"The concubine said it, and the concubine has already agreed."
