Chapter 1269: : Depressed Ma Chao

When everyone heard Zhang Lu's remarks, they kept silent. Some people did not understand why Zhang Lu was so repulsive to Liu Bei. After all, Liu Bei represented the Han Dynasty.

"Lord, now Jin Marquis has not sent troops yet. After Jin Marquis leads the troops, let him see how powerful the Hanzhong army is. It will not be too late." Zhang Wei said.

Zhang Wei is the younger brother of Zhang Lu. He is known for his bravery and good fighting skills in the army, and he has won Zhang Lu's trust.

"My lord, Ma Chao used to lead his army to attack Chang'an when he was in Liangzhou, and he had a lot of enmity with Jinhou, but now Ma Chao is leading his troops in Mianyang, is there something wrong with him?" Yang Song took the opportunity to say.

Among his conspiracy with Pang Tong, Ma Chao is a very key figure. Ma Chao is brave and good at fighting, and quite strategic. If he is stationed in Mianyang, it will be extremely unfavorable for the Chang'an army to enter Hanzhong.

Zhang Lu shook his head and said, "General Ma is brave, what's wrong with stationing in Mianyang."

"Lord, Ma Chao has hundreds of cavalry under his command, and he is good at drawing people's hearts in the Mianyang Army. He threatened to lead his troops back to Liangzhou and capture Hanyang in the future." Yang Song whispered.

Zhang Lu's expression tightened. Although he had doubts about taking refuge in Lu Bu, it did not mean that he would let his soldiers follow Ma Chao to fight in Liangzhou.

The reason why Zhang Lu is not disgusted with Lu Bu is because Lu Bu's attitude towards the people is similar to him. In this regard, the two have a common understanding.

"General Yang Ang, you led two thousand soldiers to help Ma Chao guard Mianyang, and Yang Bai, the officer ordered you to go to the Mianyang army." Zhang Lu ordered.

"Here." The two clasped their fists in unison.

When Ma Chao first arrived in Hanzhong, Zhang Lu admired Ma Chao very much. He even wanted to marry his daughter to Ma Chao, but under the advice of Yang Song and others, he did not do this. In their opinion, Ma Chao It is a person who is very likely to bring disaster to Hanzhong, after all, it is the Jin Marquis who offended Ma Chao.

Even so, Zhang Lu appointed Ma Chao to lead soldiers and horses to guard Mianyang, to prevent the soldiers and horses in Chang'an and Liangzhou, and to seal Ma Chao as a sacrificial wine.

This ritual wine is not much related to the military position. Zhang Lu advocated the Wudou Mijiao in Hanzhong and claimed to be a teacher. Those who are new to Taoism are called "ghost soldiers" and have a certain status. It was named as a sacrificial wine, and Zhang Lu set up "righteous houses", "righteous rice", and "righteous meat" in various places to feed past pedestrians for free, and even arrange accommodation for free. This is also the reason why Liu Zhang is jealous of Zhang Lu.

Zhang Lu’s Five Dou Rice Sect is, to a certain extent, the concentration of the Yellow Turban. What a terrible existence the Yellow Turban is. After so many years, the Yellow Turban still survives tenaciously. Of course, Zhang Lu did not realize that there was something wrong with what he was doing. After all, they are really thinking about it for the people.

After the rest of the people left, Yang Song stayed alone and discussed with Zhang Lu, but seeing Yang Song walking out of the prefectural palace, it was obvious that he did not achieve the desired effect.

Even if Zhang Lu is obsessed with Wudou Mijiao, he still sees it in a more thorough way. Otherwise, he won't stay in the Hanzhong for many years. Lu Bu wants to seize Hanzhong, which is reasonable.

Hanzhong can see Guanzhong from the north, Bashu from the south, Xiangyang from the east, and Qin and Long from the west. If Liu Bei occupies Hanzhong, there will be capital that can further threaten Chang'an.

Pang Tong stayed in Hanzhong for a few days, and after getting a satisfactory answer, he asked Zhang Lu to resign, and Zhang Lu personally sent it away, which was extremely courteous to Pang Tong.

Since his defeat in Liangzhou and Ma Chao took refuge in Zhang Lu, he was naturally very happy to see Zhang Lu attaching great importance to him. However, the civilian officers and generals under Zhang Lu had a lot of defense against him, especially Lu Bu who was stationed in Chang'an. After 50,000, many officials under Zhang Lu's command were a little jealous of Ma Chao.

Depressed, Ma Chao asked Zhang Lu to be stationed in Mianyang. Mianyang was close to Wudu. Ma Chao once occupied Wudu. What a beautiful figure in Liangzhou, he naturally thought that one day he could lead his troops back to Liangzhou. Who could Knowing that he had failed to speak after drinking, these words reached the ears of Zhang Lu and others.

The arrival of Yang Ang and Yang Bai made Ma Chao’s mastery of the army loose. During this period of time, with his superb martial arts, he has indeed gained the favor of many soldiers in the army. However, before these soldiers, after all, It was under Zhang Lu's command, and Yang Ang and Yang Bai were not lowly prestigious in the army.

Especially after learning that the envoy of the Jin Marquis went to Hanzhong and received the courtesy of Zhang Lu, Ma Chao felt a little depressed. The reason why he took refuge in Zhang Lu was that Zhang Lu was able to fight against Liu Zhang in Yizhou for many years. He is an ambitious person, and after a period of observation, he found that Zhang Lu was not very concerned about military affairs, but was fascinated by the five-fight rice teaching. According to the situation, Zhang Lu is very likely to take refuge. Lu Bu, won't he become a general under the command of Jin Hou~www.readwn.com~ This is something Ma Chao can't bear.

Although Ma Teng did not die in Lu Bu's hands, he had an indirect relationship with Lu Bu. Even though he had a certain respect for Lu Bu, it would not affect the hatred in his heart.

"General Ma, this general is also here by order, and I hope that the general will be considerate." Yang Bai said lightly, looking at Ma Chao with a hint of pity.

Ma Chao clasped his fists and said: "The words are serious, the final general is under the command of Zhang Taishou, and he naturally obeys the command."

Seeing Ma Chao behaved better, Yang Bai and Yang Ang were quite satisfied.

Yang Bai naturally knew about Yang Song’s plan. As for Yang Song’s desire to let Zhang Lu go to Lu Bu, it’s no secret in Hanzhong. For Lu Bu, Yang Bai has no intention of repelling him. Although his position in the army is Not low, martial arts can only be regarded as ordinary, leading and rushing to the battlefield, in his opinion, is too dangerous, far inferior to enjoying the glory and wealth in the mansion.

Ma Chao knows what kind of stuff Yang Ang and Yang Bai are, and he doesn't say anything about them.

The mobilization of troops and horses in Chang'an and the situation in Jingzhou and Yizhou made the princes once again cast their eyes on Yizhou. Yizhou was close to Jingzhou, Liangzhou and Sili area. Other princes were unable to get involved in the war in Yizhou, but From the mobilization of troops and horses in Chang'an, they could feel that this time, Lu Bu would not easily let Liu Bei seize Yizhou.

The importance of Yizhou is unquestionable. Not only Liu Bei, but other princes also want to get Yizhou. The fertile fields are vast and the terrain is dangerous. Once occupied, it means that there is no worries and can provide a steady stream of food and grass for the army.

Yanzhou, State Shepherd House.

"Lord, now there is close contact between Yizhou and Jingzhou. I am afraid that it is Liu Zhang who is afraid of the soldiers and horses of Jinhou in Chang'an and wants to seek assistance from Liu Bei." Xun Yu said.
