Chapter 461: Marching into Wuling after three days
Speaking of which, Ma Chao likes this, he thinks that both of them can be relaxed. After all, it is better to be relaxed when it should be relaxed, otherwise he would definitely feel that it would be boring all day long, with a poker face and no expression, so he would definitely feel bored.
Guo Jia and Ma Chao have known each other for too long, but even as Ma Chao's official position becomes bigger and bigger, Guo Jia is definitely not as casual as he used to be, but to be honest, his relationship with Ma Chao is really good. At least he can be a little casual in front of the other side. You know, at this time, few people dare to do this in front of Ma Chao, but Guo Jia is definitely one of them.
Ma Chao smiled. He really liked this situation, otherwise it would be meaningless. It's just a pity that his official position has already reached General Cavalry, so how many people are like Guo Jia now? Otherwise, what he thought before was actually good. The emperors were called lonely people. In fact, it's not unreasonable to think about it. The bigger the official position, the further the distance between the subordinates and themselves seems to be.
-----------------------------------------------------
Ma Chao really didn't want to do this, but now it seems that there is really nothing I can do about it. At least from his own perspective, he has nothing to do about it.
Maybe others may not have a way? But how can I know who has a way? At least I understand my own affairs, and I am helpless about this.
We can't just talk about the two of them. Ma Chao also said a few words to everyone appropriately, after all, I haven't seen them anymore. So Ma Chao actually missed these people very much. After all, when he was in Yizhou, he looked at his own side. To be honest, the generals in Yizhou are really not as good as those in Jingzhou. This is not only about martial arts, but also about it.
But can you say this? You generals in Yizhou are not good? Then don’t you wait for internal strife? And if you say this, there will be no one in Yizhou who has any objections to you. You won’t say anything else. It’s just yourself. If someone says this, you can’t do it. Even if it’s a lord, what more?
-----------------------------------------------------
If Ma Chao had just become such a lord, he would not have so much experience in the way of governing the underworld. But even so, he knew what to say, what not to say, what to say, what to say, what to say, what to say, what to think about, what to say, what to say, so even if he has no experience, Ma Chao would understand things. Don’t say that he is already very experienced.
Later, someone asked his lord how he came along the way. Ma Chao smiled and said something roughly. It was nothing more than Li Tong and Zhuge Liang in Nanyang who thought they had not seen him. He led his troops to detour into Nanjun. In Xiangyang, the Xiangyang guards didn't even dare to let go of their farts when they saw him coming with a large army. Of course, Ma Chao must not say this in front of the generals. Otherwise, it would really affect his tall image in everyone's minds.
However, Ma Chao said it was quite interesting, so the generals couldn't help laughing after hearing this. Of course, they also knew that they could not say that Li Tong and Zhuge Liang were like this. Speaking of this, if they really encountered such a thing, when the enemy was unclear, and the strength of the enemy and us was quite different, would it be wise to fight with the enemy in this situation?
-----------------------------------------------------
Although everyone did not directly tell their thoughts to their lord, most of them did write this thought on their faces.
Ma Chao saw it and said to everyone: "I understand what Li Tong and Zhuge Liang think, including what the Xiangyang City defenders think. Therefore, in my opinion, there is nothing wrong with them. In fact, in this way, they are doing it right! Speaking of which, if you encounter this situation, don't be too arrogant, put the overall situation first!"
"No! We will follow the lord's order!"
Everyone agreed in unison, but many people thought that their lords could understand them more. Some of them were really worried. If their lords said they wanted to fight or something, they would finally deal with it. In that case, it would be really terrible!
-----------------------------------------------------
But fortunately, what is it that is, your lord is reasonable, otherwise, it may not be possible in the end. Therefore, many people are actually very glad that this is the best for their lord, which is also considered good luck for them. Otherwise, if you have a bad lord, wouldn’t it be unlucky?
Afterwards, Ma Chao said to everyone: "Everyone must know, right. Now I am leading troops to Jiangxia again to destroy Liu Bei and Liu Xuande's Han army! When I was in Chang'an, I made it clear that I would not return until I destroyed Liu Bei!"
The generals heard their lord shouting, their eyes were staring at Ma Chao at this moment, and then everyone shouted in unison: "I will not return if I doom Liu Bei!"
Ma Chao nodded to everyone with a smile, and then pressed his hands down. At this time, he continued, "Everyone, I think that Liu Xuande may have known the whereabouts of my army, so he must be thinking about how to resist our army! But our army's combat power is actually comparable, so I mean, how about it, rest for three days and then send troops to Wuling again?"
-----------------------------------------------------
When everyone heard this, they naturally had no objection. Needless to say, the lords who came with Ma Chao were here to deal with Liu Bei, so of course they listened to Ma Chao. As for the generals who had stayed in Jingzhou before, some of them were actually more anxious than Ma Chao and the others. After all, it was true that they had regained the lost territory before, but after the lost territory was regained, Guo Jia refused to advance again, so they were so worried about fighting these days.
As for who the target is, it really doesn't matter. Anyway, if there is a war, it will definitely be better than nothing.
So soon, they passed unanimously, and everyone finally said in unison: "We agree with the lord's words and send troops to Wuling in three days!"
When Ma Chao saw it, he thought it was OK. It seems that everyone has such a meaning. If this is the case, it will save him a lot of trouble.
-----------------------------------------------------
So Ma Chao decided to go to Wuling in a few words and three days later. However, Jiangxia and Wuling were not next to each other, so they had to go from Nanjun. In other words, from Jiangxia to Nanjun, and then from Nanjun to Wuling, this is Ma Chao's idea, and of course the idea of everyone.
In fact, there is another way that is similar to this, but it is still different, that is, to attack Jiangling first, then travel southeast from Jiangling, and finally enter the territory of Wuling. However, this was rejected by everyone. It was because Jiangling's strength was definitely not ordinary. Not to mention that it is now "one man is the pass, and ten thousand men cannot open it". If you think about it carefully, it is actually almost the same.
Liu Qi's men were still in charge now. These men and Liu Bei's men were really a terrible number.
Ma Chao was not afraid of anything, but he didn't want to do it and caused such a big trouble to himself at the beginning, so he would rather take a detour to attack Liu Bei's cities in Wuling than to attack Jiangling first.
-----------------------------------------------------
He had thought before that it would be better to start with the easy ones and then the difficult ones. In this way, his progress would be faster. Otherwise, Ma Chao would think that it would take his time for one or two months in Jiangling City, which would be without any problem.
Yes, I don’t think this city is indestructible, but if I want to truly occupy Jiangling, I guess it may not be able to be in a city for one or two months. Maybe it will take three to five months to get the same, and I even just failed to settle down in Jiangling City. Ma Chao really didn’t think this could happen. Speaking of the situation in Jiangling City, the exploration team in Jingzhou has reported the more specific information to Guo Jia, and he also knew it.
Judging from the current situation, it is too difficult to win Jiangling, a strong city in the world, so Ma Chao naturally gave up this step. He really didn't want to face it, because in this case, he would be better than detour to Wuling. In that case, Liu Bei would basically be chased by himself like a dog that was a broken family, and he might be chased by him.
-----------------------------------------------------
But if you go to Jiangling, you may be stuck there all of a sudden. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
