Chapter 190 Boss Cao and I have a common hobby
Ma Zhan speculated that the current Boss Cao should be the Boss Cao in the official history, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
In Ma Zhan's mind, the real Boss Cao in history is much more awesome than the Boss Cao in the novel.
A few days later, the army began to prepare to set out and cross the river to the north.
After Ma Zhan finished cleaning the kitchen nervously, he felt hungry.
I secretly grilled a few skewers of meat, thinking that the grain officer would be very busy tonight.
Just as he was about to bite, he saw that evil bearded man.
Ma Zhan had no choice but to offer the skewers in exchange for his head.
The bearded man started without hesitation, saying as he applied oil:
"The army crossed the Yellow River to Fengling Ferry. Boss Cao planned to bring Xu Zhu and a hundred elite soldiers to cover the rear.
"You say, will Ma Chao in Tongguan attack?"
"meeting."
"If you were Boss Cao, what would you do?"
"Don't make trouble. Although Boss Cao and I share the same hobby, I don't have Boss Cao's courage.
Boss Cao was making a risky move, targeting himself to lure Ma Chao and allow the army to cross the river safely.
When there were not many soldiers left around Boss Cao, Ma Chao arrived.
However, the Xiliang Army, although capable of fighting, has one shortcoming, which is that it is poor.
In Ma Chao's eyes, an army of hundreds of thousands is not as valuable as Boss Cao's head.
However, in the eyes of the Xiliang Army, Boss Cao's head is not as valuable as a cow, a horse, or even a sheep."
The bearded man's eyes sparkled, as if he had thought of something.
After a moment, the bearded man asked again: "You and Boss Cao have common interests. What are they?"
"Married woman~...ah~"
Ma Zhan got another slap in the face.
On the second day, Cao's army crossed the river and Ma Chao led a 10,000-man army to attack.
Xu Zhu protected Boss Cao and boarded the small boat. The Xiliang army fired thousands of swords at once, and Xu Zhu used his saddle to block the arrows.
At the critical moment, Captain Ding Fei released all the cattle, horses and livestock that did not have time to cross the river.
The Xiliang army was in chaos as they fought for livestock.
Boss Cao was able to escape.
Boss Cao led the main force and crossed the Yellow River westward again, landing at the Pubanjin ferry to meet up with Xu Huang.
In this way, Cao's army directly bypassed the natural barrier of Tongguan.
Ma Chao and Han Sui saw that Tongguan had lost its function.
He could only lead his troops to retreat to Weinan and use the Wei River to resist Cao's army.
Boss Cao sent troops across the Wei River several times.
Since the area south of the Wei River was all sandy, Cao's army could not build a city defense camp.
The Western Liang army was good at riding and shooting. The main force of Cao's army could not cross the river, and the vanguard troops were no match for them in a field battle. Boss Cao was once again in a dilemma.
The weather was getting colder and colder. Taking advantage of the cold night, Ma Zhan cooked himself a bowl of mutton soup.
Looking at the grease and white steam floating on the surface really whets your appetite.
I picked up the baked pancake and was about to start eating when that bearded man came again.
Seeing that the bearded man looked unhappy, Ma Zhan took the initiative to hand over the steamed buns and mutton soup and stood aside waiting.
The hissing sound of the bearded man made Ma Zhan's stomach growl in protest.
The bearded man felt the warmth coming from his stomach and felt much better.
"Boss Cao has run into trouble again. The Wei River is south of An, and we can't set up camp. The army has tried to cross the river several times, but was driven back by the Xiliang army."
"This little thing can't possibly stump Boss Cao."
"You mean, Boss Cao has found a good plan?
What’s the best strategy?”
Ma Zhan took the porcelain bowl and spilled a little mutton soup on the ground.
After a while, the grease solidified, and Ma Zhan said:
"In such a cold weather, we build a city with sand, pouring water on it while piling it up. After it freezes, it becomes as hard as iron or stone.
Now, Boss Cao should send people to build an ice city on the other side of the river."
On the second day, an ice city fell from the sky in Nan'an, Weishui, and the main force of Cao's army crossed the river.
Ma Chao and Han Sui lost the natural barrier of the Wei River, and they had no choice but to choose peace talks.
Negotiation is the final outcome of the war, but the warlords in Guanzhong want to negotiate, but Boss Cao does not.
What Boss Cao wants is the entire Guanzhong Plain.
At night, the bearded grain officer extorted Ma Zhan's oil-splashed noodles again.
"The situation is now clear, and I have the advantage. Boss Cao has decided to achieve the ultimate victory at the lowest cost.
If you correctly guess Boss Cao's intentions this time, you will be forgiven for repeatedly stealing military rations."
"I only took a bite, but it all went into the stomach of you, a black-hearted grain official."
He ate my food and threatened me. Ma Zhan wanted to kill this guy.
"Hurry up and tell me, or no one can save your head."
Ma Zhan was speechless with such a boss. He only said three words:
"A divorce plan."
On the second day, Boss Cao met with Han Sui, and they talked and laughed from time to time.
A day later, Boss Cao sent a letter to Han Sui, but deliberately covered it with ink.
From then on, Ma Chao and Han Sui became estranged from each other, and the other small warlords were waiting for the results of the negotiations.
Boss Cao led a large army to attack, and the Guanzhong coalition forces were defeated.
Ma Chao and Han Sui led the remaining troops to flee to Xiliang, and the remaining small warlords either died, fled, or surrendered.
Boss Cao pacified Guanzhong, left Xiahou Yuan to guard Chang'an, and led his army back east.
Ma Zhan followed the army back to Yecheng. When leaving Tongguan, the bearded grain officer gave Ma Zhan a tiger talisman covered with rust and told him.
"We'll see you again."
——Twenty miles away from Tongguan, Ma Zhan activated the stealth mode of the small palace.
As soon as I entered, I saw Si Yongcai carefully wiping every floor tile in the living room.
As soon as he saw Ma Zhan, Si Yongcai dressed up and saluted.
Ma Zhan waved his hand and said:
“Working to earn money is a small matter, but don’t exhaust yourself trying to make money.
The little money I earn by then won’t be enough to pay for medical treatment.”
Si Yongcai humbly accepted the advice and watched Ma Zhan enter Ma Zhongtong's room.
"Second Master, can I show you something rare?"
Ma Zhan handed the tiger talisman to Ma Zhongtong, and then told him about Tongguan, the bearded grain officer, and Boss Cao.
Ma Zhongtong studied the tiger talisman and found that it looked like half a gold-inlaid tiger talisman.
Ma Zhongtong wanted to inject his internal energy to explore the inside of the tiger talisman.
Unexpectedly, the tiger talisman contained a power that directly repelled Ma Zhongtong's internal force.
The tiger talisman contained a strong evil spirit, a murderous aura that even gods and Buddhas could not withstand when a powerful army advanced.
This force made Ma Zhongtong, who was taking the hegemonic route, shudder.
Ma Zhongtong placed the tiger talisman on the table and said:
“There may be an army stationed here, or this tiger talisman may be used to seal this army inside.
In short, this thing is dangerous.”
"Fuck, that's awesome..."
Ma Zhan was about to pick up the tiger talisman when he was stopped by Ma Zhongtong.
"You'd better not touch it. As the saying goes, where a strong army goes, even ghosts and gods will be afraid.
If you're exposed to it for a long time, it will affect your mind."
Ma Zhan suddenly remembered that he followed Qin Qiong to dig the formation as a dog.
In just a moment, the bloody and violent nature of human beings was exposed, and they were completely integrated into the cruel battlefield.
Ma Zhan asked: "How do we deal with this thing?"
Ma Zhongtong replied: "It would be more appropriate to let Si Yongcai take charge for the time being.
