Three Kingdoms: Counselor, You Still Say You Don't Understand Strategy?

Xiliang army camp.

Ma Chao led more than [-] defeated soldiers back to the camp. After turning over and dismounting, he walked towards his handsome tent with a pale face.

In this battle, he brought [-] iron cavalry to the army, originally to give Cao Cao a dismount.

As a result, not only did Cao Cao fail to be injured in the slightest, but thousands of soldiers and horses were damaged, and he was disheartened and returned in embarrassment.

It can be said that it made his heart hold back a belly of anger.

"Major General, the first defeat of our army is not the fault of the Major General, but the treacherous Cao thief. We never imagined this ice city."

Pang De came up, followed Ma Chao's side, and persuaded him, "Although our army suffered some losses in this battle, we also found out the truth of Cao's army."

"Major General, think about it, Cao's army crossed the river at night, and then hurriedly built a city. This shows that Cao thief is afraid of the major general. If the two armies fight head-on, our army will win."

"Cao Jun's victory is just a miracle victory. It's only one time. There will never be such a chance in the future."

"So what else does the Major General have to worry about?"

Pang De's remarks were well-founded, and Ma Chao heard it, and it was true.

The Art of War says, know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles.

He lost because he didn't know the truth of Cao Cao. Now that he knows, he will take precautions next time, and he will never repeat the same mistakes again.

After thinking about it, the anger in Ma Chao's heart also subsided a lot.

He turned his head and glanced at Pang De, and said with a smile, "Thank you for your words, which made me feel relieved."

"The major general is joking, even if I don't say it, it won't take long for the major general to figure it out." Pang De didn't dare to take credit, and waved his hand quickly and humbly.

"good."

Ma Chao nodded, and then grabbed Pang De's arm, "But tonight, I lost the battle, I have some responsibility after all, go, go with me to the horse race in the camp, and boost the morale of the soldiers."

race!

It is a kind of activity to show martial arts in the Xiliang army.

It is a way to test the horseman's horsemanship and martial arts.

Liked by the soldiers in the camp.

Ma Chao does this, and it can really boost his morale quickly.

"The major general is invited, how can the last general refuse?" Pang De replied with a smile.

The two laughed and went to the camp for a horse race.

at the same time.

Han Sui was looking at the map in the tent, but his brows were furrowed, as if he had something on his mind.

Behind Han Sui, a sturdy young man dressed in wolf armor and a hunting helmet stood upright like a javelin.

This person is Yan Xing, the adopted son of Han Sui.

In the past, when Han Sui and Ma Teng fought, Yan Xing fought Ma Chao, and Yan Xing almost missed and took Ma Chao's head.

If the spear in his hand hadn't broken, I'm afraid Ma Chao might not have survived until now.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Yan Xing is stronger than Ma Chao, but it can be seen from this battle that Yan Xing's martial arts are not inferior to Ma Chao.

This was also one of Han Sui's trump cards that he was not afraid of Ma Chao.

At this time, seeing Han Sui's expression, Yan Xing couldn't help clenching the sword hanging from his waist, and asked with bright eyes, "Foster father, have you ever been worried about Ma Teng?"

Although Han Sui is known as the Nine Songs of the Yellow River, in the eyes of outsiders, Han Sui's mind is like the Yellow River, which is difficult to understand.

In order to survive, Han Sui first killed the rebel Qiang leader Bei Gong Boyu and replaced him, gaining more than [-] Qiang troops. This will firmly control the entire Xiliang rebel army in his hands.

From this point of view, Han Sui is not only ruthless, but also does not recognize his six relatives, but Yan Xing is very clear that Han Sui's temperament has changed greatly over the years, and he has already recognized Ma Teng as a brother from his heart, and he has a life-and-death relationship. treat.

Therefore, Han Sui's concern about Ma Teng was absolutely sincere.

"Yan Ming, now you are the only one who understands what it means to be a father." Han Sui sighed leisurely, "It is rumored that I kill people like a slaughter, regardless of whether I am close or distant, but only I know that I am not the Han of the past. That's it."

"Brother Shoucheng and I are Babai friends. Cao Cao's plan in him is deeply trapped in Xuchang. How can I not worry about it."

Yan Xing shook his head.

"No matter what outsiders think of the adoptive father, the child naturally trusts the adoptive father in his heart."

"As for Ma Teng, I don't think the adoptive father needs to worry too much. The one who should be worried should be that Ma Chao."

Yan Xing said with a cold look in his eyes, "And Ma Teng's death is a good thing for his foster father."

"Presumptuous." Han Sui's expression turned cold, and he turned his head and glared at Yan Xing, "Since you understand my thoughts, how can you say such a stupid thing?"

"Yan Ming, don't say these words again in the future, otherwise don't blame your father for being rude."

Yan Xing pouted and didn't care, but still bowed his hands respectfully: "What the foster father taught is that the child obeys orders."

"Humph!"

Han Sui snorted coldly, looking at the indifference on Yan Xing's face, he couldn't help but exhort: "Brother Shoucheng's life and death are unknown now, and Meng Qi is impulsive and in a bad mood, you must not meet him. Comparing with him, you have to restrain your anger, understand?"

Yan Xing was a little unhappy.

In his opinion, the name of Xiliang Jinma Chao is somewhat unreal.

In this land of Xiliang, only the name of Ma Chao is passed down, but there are very few deeds about his Yan Xing. How can he accept this?

After all, he almost killed Ma Chao back then.

In terms of martial arts, he is not inferior to Ma Chao, or even better.

But Ma Chao's prestige is far above him.

It's not because Ma Chao is the son of Ma Teng, the leader of the Xiliang Army.

Otherwise, how could his fame lose to Ma Chao?

As soon as Han Sui saw Yan Xing's face, he knew that he was not convinced, so he could only come over and pat Yan Xing's shoulder.

"Yan Ming, I know you don't agree with Meng Qi in your heart, but there is no room for two tigers in this mountain. The name of Meng Qi is intentional. The purpose is to conquer the hearts of the people in Xiliang."

There are both Han and Qiang people in the land of Xiliang.

But all those who live here place great importance on martial arts.

Only those with high martial arts skills can lead Xiliang.

No one can avoid this.

Therefore, in order for Ma Chao to take over Liangzhou smoothly in the future, Ma Teng started to build momentum for Ma Chao and manage his reputation when Ma Chao was young.

Now, within Xiliang, no one knows the name of Ma Chao.

With this kind of fame, Ma Chao can take over the land of Xiliang logically, and no one will disapprove.

But at this time, there is another person whose fame is equal to Ma Chao, or even surpasses Ma Chao.

For Ma Chao, this is a huge threat.

Even the people and soldiers in Xiliang would question Ma Chao.

At that time, between Ma Chao and Yan Xing, there will be an endless situation.

Han Sui naturally didn't want to see such a scene, so he always ordered Yan Xing to keep a low profile and not to be an enemy of Ma Chao.

"Father, I understand."

Knowing that Han Sui was doing it for his own good, Yan Xing could only nod helplessly, "I will control myself."

"It's the best." Han Sui breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Yan Xing with a smile...

"Report!"

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the camp. Both Han Sui and Yan Xing were stunned, and Han Sui was even more surprised, "Could it be that Meng Qi captured Cao's camp, so he ordered someone to come back to report?"

With that said, Han Sui said, "Come in."

The colonel who was in charge of guarding the entrance to the camp walked in, holding a white cloth in his hand, knelt down on one knee and said, "Report to the general, Cao Cao wrote a letter saying that he wants the general to open it in person."

"A letter to me?" Han Sui subconsciously felt that something was wrong.

Now that the two armies are at war, he and Cao Cao are even more enemies of life and death, but Cao Cao took the initiative to send him a letter, which must be deceitful.

"The thief Cao is treacherous, this letter must be a plot for him, I can't read it." Han Sui gave him a cold look, then waved, "Take it and burn it."

"No." The lieutenant responded, then got up and planned to leave the camp to burn the secret letter.

"slow!"

Yan Xing, who was on the side, stopped the school captain, and then when Han Sui turned his head to look, he said with a smile, "Foster father, since you already know that this is Cao Cao's plan, why don't you look at it and talk about it."

"One can know what plan Cao Cao used to deal with his adoptive father, so we can think about how to deal with it in advance."

"Second, I also want to see. With the current situation, what ideas can Cao Cao come up with? Maybe this is Cao Cao's peace book."

After Yan Xing finished speaking, Han Sui laughed and shook his head.

How could Cao Cao be the biggest prince in the world today, how could he beg him for peace.

But Yan Xing said it well, Cao Cao sent a letter to see what the other party wanted to destroy before it was too late, and if he didn't even dare to read the letter and ordered someone to burn it, wouldn't it appear that he was afraid of Cao Cao?

"Bring it to me."

Han Sui waved his hand, and the captain immediately brought the white cloth, and then stood aside.

"I want to see what Cao Cao wrote."

Han Sui returned to the desk and sat down, then untied the white cloth and spread it out on the desk.

Just looking at it, he was stunned.

Just because the content of this cloth has been smeared out, it is impossible to see what is in the letter.

Han Sui frowned, and Yan Xing, who was beside him, also glanced at him, and immediately became furious, he pulled out the sword from his waist and put it on the captain's neck.

"Bold, dare to destroy the letter privately."

Pfft!
