Xu Gan put his hands into his wide sleeves and said, "I have told the general before that I am here to help Brother Meng Qi at the order of my lord."

"Is this really the only thing? I never thought of attacking it with surprise troops and seizing our Jincheng County?" Ma Chao narrowed his heroic eyes and asked.

Xu Gan has answered such a question no less than three times, and the answers are the same every time, but Ma Chao still doesn't believe it very much.

Liu Yun, the leader of Hanyang, was treacherous and cunning. In Ma Chao's understanding, there seemed to be no good people in his men.

Although Xu Gan was a famous scholar in the world and known to everyone in the world, he was far away from the famous scholars after he entered Liu Yun's tent.

In the eyes of the court and the world, he was like Liu Yun, and the word "rebel" was engraved on his forehead.

When it comes to believing in them, Ma Chao really dares not!

The lessons of Aweng and Longxi County are right in front of him. How can he believe it?!

But Ma Chao also dared not kill him...

Xu Gan nodded slightly and said, "General is too worried, take it seriously, that's all!"

After looking around the wide storm of the Songyin River, Xu Gan said again: "My lord has orders first, and Jincheng County will return to the general! I am not just a small person, and I will not act against the orders. However, my lord also has a few words to ask me to inform the general."

Ma Chao exclaimed in surprise and asked, "Liu Fujun actually has something to tell me? It really surprised someone. I don't know what it said?"

"There are hundreds of feet of rocks standing against the majestic pass, and the throat of the Western Regions is here. Jincheng Pass is the throat of the Western Regions. It is surrounded by mountains and water, and there is a rolling scent of the river. The terrain is dangerous. Just keep this pass tightly and the general can rest assured." Xu Gan said, "This is the original words of my lord, and I hope the general will know."

Ma Chao frowned slightly and asked, "Is this what your master said to me? He knew about this even if he didn't say it."

He grew up in the military since childhood. If he couldn't see such a simple thing clearly, Ma Chao thought he could take off his armor and return to the fields and go to herd sheep and raise cattle.

Xu Gan chuckled, walked towards the river on pebbles under his feet.

"It's not that simple. My lord wants to invite Brother Meng Qi to form a navy and build a solid ferry here, which can stop the ferry of tens of thousands of majestic troops. If the navy is completed, the army will set off from here and go downstream. In less than two days, you can enter the Central Plains and conquer Guandong." Xu Gan pointed his finger along the flow and said in an extremely gentle tone.

Ma Chao looked surprised and formed a navy?

This is simply an incredible fantasy!

There are only so many people living by the banks of the Songyin River? Almost all the people in Liangzhou are all bumps of soil rolling out of yellow sand and loess, which may melt when they encounter water. Not to mention letting them fight in the water, even some people in such a wide river may never have seen them in their lifetime.

But from then on, going downstream and entering the heartland of the Central Plains, it was very attractive to Ma Chao.

Just as he heard this, he was moved.

Taking a water route saves several times more time than taking a land route, and being able to be unexpected and attacking him unprepared can indeed be regarded as a surprise weapon.

Despite his heart's movement, Ma Chao still had a calm face and shook his head, "Mr. Xu is probably joking. You know that this matter is impossible."

"I just brought a message. As for whether it can be done and whether the general is willing to do it, it is not something I need to consider. The general doesn't have to tell you." Xu Gan said with a light smile.

Ma Chao didn't say anything, just nodded.

"Brother Meng Qi, I have already stated the intentions of my lord. Whether it is asking the general to guard Hangu Pass or here, they are all important places. Advance can attack the world, and retreat can make you feel at ease. My lord does not pay attention to methods in his actions, but he is absolutely sincere to Brother Meng Qi." Xu Gan glanced at Ma Chao with an arrogant expression and said softly.

Ma Chao sneered and said, "Don't he want me to guard the gate for him?"

"For the same thing, different people will have different opinions. In my opinion, this is my lord who handed his back to the general. When passing Hangu Pass and going west, all the arrangements my lord made in Sanfu will be in the eyes of the general. When leaving Jincheng to the south, the general's army and horses can even drive straight into Ji County, without a city or a pool to stop the general's footsteps. Isn't this trust in the general?" Xu Gan said with a smile.

Ma Chao stared at Xu Gan, and the smile that seemed to be holding Jizhu really made him very upset.

Even if this is true, Ma Chao doesn't want to win Liu Yun's love.

"Mr. Xu, I have something to ask you. Do you think if I kill you, will Liu Yun change his decision?"

Ma Chao asked in a cold voice when he opened the topic.

Xu Gan's expression did not change at all, and he still smiled lightly, saying, "I am just a small person. I am a little bit useless to let General Meng Qi use a knife. I used a knives to kill chickens. If I die under the general's knife, the lord's decision will definitely change, but it will never be because I die, but because the general has used a knife."

Ma Chao asked with a sharp edge, and facing the soft Xu Gan, he felt like he punched the cotton.

Not only did he not get the answer he wanted, he instead made himself depressed.

"What's the difference?" Ma Chao asked coldly, holding the silver spear's right hand, slowly exerting force without realizing it.

Xu Gan chuckled and said, "There are naturally differences. I said that I am just a small person, and under my lord, I am like bleak sand and gravel under my lord. Hanyang is no longer the same as before. Wu has Wang Zhi, Gai Xun, Jiang Zheng and other generals, Wen has Mr. Gongsun, Huangfu Xian and other ministers who have stabilized the country."

"The death of a young employed person is not enough to shake my lord's consideration of the overall situation, so it is not a big deal if I die. But if the general takes a knife, the significance will be very different, and the lord will definitely lose trust in the general. General Ma Teng and my lord will turn into a vain after many twists and turns. The general may face the conquest of 120,000 armored men in Hanyang."

Ma Chao sneered, and his white robe swayed gently in the warm sun, "Mr. Xu is really worthy of being a famous scholar. Ma Chao felt guilty for this verbal battle. I will act as agreed."

"That's great!" Xu Gan said with a smile, and bowed Ma Chao politely.

Ma Chao glanced at him, his arrogant expression was somewhat restrained, and he asked, "Mr. Xu, I still have something unknown. Didn't Liu Yun raise all the troops from Hanyang to attack the Sanfu? Why did you suddenly bring 20,000 troops in Yuzhong?"

Xu Gan looked calm and replied with neither humility nor arrogant words: "Because my lord's lord's lord's soldiers are in Hanyang and Longxi, wherever there are people, there will be soldiers of my lord's lord."

Ma Chao paused lightly and turned to look at the rolling pineapple river.

Xu Gan's words made him want to shoot this old guy again, which was even more annoying than the threat he just now.
