Hearing Ma Chao's affirmative reply, there was no trace of joy on the front, but instead showed a deep sadness.

Nodding silently, Fa Zheng bowed and bowed deeply to Ma Chao, not knowing whether he was saying goodbye or doing something.

"Zhonghua, send him out of the city!" Ma Chao seemed to have never seen Fa Zheng's actions, and just waved his hand.

"Brother..." Ma Dai seemed very unwilling to accept it and went forward to ask for advice, but he saw Ma Chao frowning his right hand and slowly swaying his left hand a few times.

"Yes!" He responded helplessly, and Ma Dai glared at Fa Zheng with his eyes that he wished he could peel it alive, and finally said alertly, "Follow me!"

Fa Zheng gave Ma Chao another bow, and then followed Ma Dai out of the hall.

After Ma Dai and Fa Zheng left, Ma Chao did not speak. Ma Xiu, Ma Tie and others didn't know what to say or do, so they could only look at each other in a glance.

After a long time, Ma Chao suddenly stood up, walked slowly outside the hall, looked up at the sky, and was stunned...

.

He ordered the soldiers to open the city gate, and Ma Dai unceremoniously pushed Fa Zheng out of the city, and said in a very bad tone: "Get out!"

Fa Zheng staggered and almost fell. After barely standing firm, he bowed to Ma Dai without any anger and walked slowly towards the besieged army outside the city.

Suddenly, Ma Dai grabbed the bow and arrow from an archer beside him, aimed at Fa Zheng, and exerted force with both arms, and the bow was in full moon shape.

Since the distance is not far away, the sound of Ma Dai when he opens the string should be clearly transmitted into Fazheng's ears, but Fazheng seems to have not heard of it, and continues to move forward slowly and heavily.

The soldiers guarding the city looked at Ma Dai in surprise, wondering why he wanted to shoot "Fabi Jia".

Ma Dai stared at Fa Zheng's back, thinking in his mind, and the feather arrows on the string could not be shot out. When Fa Zheng walked out of the range, he had to lower his bow and arrows.

Fa Zheng, who pretended to be calm, was calculating his steps. After estimating that he was probably out of danger, his mind immediately relaxed and his legs felt weak.

Before, Fa Zheng almost collapsed before Ma Chao, but he could only barely support him by relying on the stable psychological quality he had trained. Now he is out of danger and feels exhausted all over.

……………………………………………….

In the tent of the central army, my second brother, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and others were listening to Fa Zheng's reward. The other generals in the army were busy with their responsibilities, either leading their troops to siege the city or commanding their soldiers to dig trenches.

Judging from the current situation, although Ma Chao has about 10,000 people under his command, it is obvious that those infantrymen cannot escape under the siege of 60,000 troops of my second brother and I. The only thing that needs to be taboo is the more than 3,000 cavalry.

Since it was a siege battle, neither the ground arrow formation was set up in the Battle of Jiangling or the guerrilla tactics of the Wind Cavalry, they could not trap the Iron Cavalry well. If the horses avoided the real and went to the virtual, they forced to break through from the weaker side.

I was not sure to stop him. In view of this, I could only use digging trenches to prevent the Iron Cavalry from escaping.

"...Fa, after Fa, he was advised to recommend the main business of the Ma army, intending to surrender to the emperor's uncle!" Fa Zheng had changed his clothes and reported respectfully. "However, the Ma army's master has one condition..."

"Condition?" My second brother and I looked at each other and asked in surprise, "What are the conditions?" Ma Chao was really ungrateful. In a situation where he was determined to fail and could not escape, we agreed to avenge him, but he dared to submit the conditions.

"Ma Junzhu said. He had lost Zhang Pingnan for a while in Jiangling, but he was not convinced." Fa Zheng seemed a little uncomfortable.

Hearing this, my second brother and I frowned. Does Ma Chao want to join me again?

"What are the conditions? Mr. Fa is fine!" I waved my hand and said.

"The main horse army said that unless someone in Guan Junhou and Zhang Pingnan's army can defeat him, he will surrender willingly!" Fa Zheng hesitated for a moment and said it.

"Ma Chao is so ignorant!" The second brother was furious and slapped the table in front of him. He said in a deep voice.

This kind of request is a very arrogant person like Ma Chao. Although he has not had much contact with Ma Chao, from his reputation and the encounter outside Jiangcheng City, he can probably see some of his character, which is indeed an arrogant and unruly person.

It seems that if he wants to surrender, he has to defeat him in a one-on-one way. Although he was lucky to win last time, Ma Chao's current physical and mental state should be greatly reduced compared to the Battle of Jiangling.

This has not lasted, but the other has disappeared, and it should be no problem to win the battle.

However, this person's temperament is too arrogant and even after the decline, he has to polish it carefully.

"Tell Ma Chao, I will take over this battle!" The second brother looked expressionless, stretched out his hand and stroked his long beard deeply, and said to Fa Zheng in a deep voice.

I was very familiar with my second brother and could easily hear the anger contained in the calm words. The second brother was really angry because Ma Chao was ungrateful!

"Yes, let's go and pass the message!" Fa Zheng bowed and gave a gift to his second brother and me, then turned around and left.

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, who were under the tent, communicated with each other for a moment with their eyes, then slowly shook their heads.

.

Standing side by side outside the tent, the second brother looked at the city faintly in the distance, gently stroking his long beard under his chin with his left hand.

After a while, the second brother suddenly turned his head and said to me, "If Ma Chao is not polished properly, it will be difficult for the eldest brother to use it. The Qinglong Sword has not been showing off for a long time. Today I will use Ma Chao to try whether the blade is still sharp. Third brother, I will leave this battle to me!"

The second brother's eyes were full of perseverance, confidence, and even a hint of desire.

Indeed, it is hard to find a master of level like Ma Chao, so no wonder my second brother has such eagerness to invite him.

"Yeah..." I smiled and nodded.

Not far away, the Red Rabbit Divine Horse raised its head toward the sky, and with a long neigh, the momentum of the king of horses was undoubtedly revealed.

.

Ma Dai reluctantly led Fa Zheng back to the lobby of the inner courtyard again.

After looking at Fa Zheng who had returned, Ma Chao asked indifferently, "There will be a reply so soon?!!!"

"Yes..." Fa Zheng replied respectfully and peacefully.

“How to say it?”

"Horse Guan Jun is willing to fight with the military leader!"

"Yeah~?" Ma Chao sighed lightly and asked coldly. "Isn't it Zhang Fei?"

"It's like this..." Fa Zheng replied in a harmonious voice, "When the meaning of General Fa was conveyed to General Zhang Fei, Guan Junhou happened to be there, so he took on the battle!"

"Guan Yu?!!!" Ma Chao murmured a few words in a low voice, his attitude seemed a little unhesitant.

"Guan Junhou took Hua Xiong's head with warm wine, killed Yan Liang, and killed Wen Chou. He is the most powerful master in the world. General Zhang Fei also admits that he is not a match for Guan Junhou!" Fa Zheng guessed what Ma Chao was thinking and explained out loud.

"Hua Xiong, Yan Liang, Wen Chou..." Ma Chao said these names, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Go back and tell Guan Yu that I will take it. Half an hour later, the battle to the death in the south of the city!"

"yes!"

When he followed Ma Dai to the county government office, a sharp light flashed in Fa Zhengping's eyes, which was unsightly.

.

When Ma Dai returned to the lobby of the inner courtyard, Ma Chao retreated the rest of the generals, leaving only a group of Ma's children.

"Come here!" Ma Chao waved and asked Ma Dai and others to lean in front of him. "When I was six years old, I would hunt with my father; when I was ten years old, I killed the first wolf; when I was twelve years old.

I’ve been on the battlefield for the first time with my dad… I’ve never been afraid of anything in the past ten years, but now I’m afraid of one thing!”

Ma Dai, Ma Xiu and others had tears in their eyes, knowing that this was Ma Chao's last words. Although Ma Chao often beat and scolded on weekdays, Ma Dai and others also knew that Ma Chao was disappointed in many cases.

"I'm not afraid of death! On the battlefield, I have encountered danger more than once. Death is nothing for us people from the sword and blood..." Ma Chao continued with a plain expression, "What I'm afraid of is that my father, mother, my sister's revenge can never be avenged, and the Ma family's more than 130 people can never be avenged.

Old Dog Han betrayed his father. He must die, and his nine clans must be destroyed; Old Dog Cao instigated Old Dog Han betrayed his father, and he must die... Fa Zheng said it right, we can no longer avenge our own revenge, and we must rely on Liu Bei.

After I die, you are all honest and don’t play tricks. You can’t play tricks. You can’t play tricks. At that time, I died without any value. Follow Liu Bei honestly, this person is not easy to mess with. Maybe he can really defeat Cao Cao in the future.

At that time, I will let you do whatever you want to take revenge!"

Tears overflowed from the eyes of Ma Dai and Ma Xiu.

"Did you remember?" Ma Chao looked at his brothers and asked seriously.

"Yeah..." Ma Dai and others responded with crying voices.

"Okay!" Ma Chao stood up and said loudly to the personal soldiers outside the hall, "Feed my horse and prepare a table of food. After eating, you can go and meet Guan Yu!"

Ignoring a group of brothers, Ma Chao walked out of the hall, looked at the blue sky, and said with a smile: "Although Jingzhou is good, it is still not as blue as Xiliang. Even the sky is not as blue as Xiliang! Unfortunately... I can't go back to Xiliang!"

"Brother..." At the entrance of the hall, the young Ma Tie covered his mouth and tried not to cry, but he still couldn't control himself...

……………………………………………

On a vast land in the south of Xinling City, Ma Chao and his second brother were a hundred steps apart, confronting each other in a solemn manner.

In order to facilitate the two to fight, the besieged army specially retreated to make a large piece of space.

At this moment, the two were about 300 steps away from the city. Since they had left the range of bows and arrows in the city tower, they were about 150 steps away from the trench excavated to the south.

The second brother was wearing a light green battle robe and a rare iron helmet on his head. The Qinglong Blood Seal, which seemed particularly conspicuous today, was hanging down behind him.

The Red Rabbit Divine Horse felt that what was about to be a fierce battle, and seemed very excited, and hesitated from time to time, and the fiery red mane was as dazzling as the flames from purgatory.
