Chapter 684 Jiangling City Horse is beyond the strokes

So for Huang Zhong, as a general on the battlefield, he often leads troops to fight, so he may be gone one day. £∝ A real general naturally takes pride in his death on the battlefield. Otherwise, why did Ma Yuan’s words, “A man should die in the border, and be buried in a horse’s corpse and be buried in an ear”? Therefore, he was not worried about anything else, but was afraid that after his death, his unworthy son would be left unattended.

In addition to being in poor health, his son is not good at this. Of course, now he is mainly because he has little experience and is not that old. If he is really young and energetic, it is hard to say. Therefore, Huang Zhong knew that if he is gone, then who can help his son? If this kid offends others, it is indeed difficult to deal with. Of course, if he is alive, that would be fine. After all, he has to listen to his own son after all, and there are things that can restrain him.

But if he is not here, there is no way. So Huang Zhong is considering a good friend of Mi Fang, and he also thinks that if he is not here in the future, his son has not grown up yet, at least someone can help him at critical moments. Mi Fang may not have enough courage, but if you really count it, he is still quite kind, so Huang Zhong means that.

-----------------------------------------------------

Huang Zhong didn't say anything directly to Mi Fang, but he also pointed a few words in secret, just saying that his son was not good. But Mi Fang was not stupid after all. If he couldn't hear Huang Zhong's meaning in one sentence or two, there were so many sentences. If he couldn't hear it, it would be really. His IQ was too low.

So in the end Mi Fang smiled at Huang Zhong, "General. Major General is the rising star of our army. Even the lord said it personally. So please rest assured that the major general will naturally have a smooth road in the future, no problem!"

That's what Huang Zhong said, but Huang Zhong understood that this was actually Mi Fang telling himself to reassure himself that if Huang Xu really had something to do in the future, he would definitely help him. It's just that he didn't say it clearly. But who else doesn't understand the three of you here?

Huang Zhong laughed, "Chengzi Fang Jiyan, I just don't worry about this guy! But today, I feel much more relieved when Zifang said this! Xu'er, don't thank Zifang yet!"

Huang Xu thanked him quickly, and he understood what his father and Mi Fang meant. He originally didn't think his father would be like, but...

-----------------------------------------------------

Ma Chao still praised Ma Dai and Gan Ning, and they said they were ashamed. They couldn't see it. His lord just asked him to fight for a while today. Unfortunately, he didn't make much fuss for his lord, so they were really embarrassed to listen to his lord's praise.

"Lord, I am ashamed!"

Gan Ning also said: "Yes, lord. I am not allowed to praise you!"

When Ma Chao heard this, he waved his hand and smiled. "You two are humble. You are in our army's camp. You don't have to do this in our army's tent! Hahaha! In fact, as long as you work so hard as you today, why don't you worry about not being able to break Jiangling?"

"No! I will make a decision!"

"So are subordinates!"

Ma Chao nodded when he heard this, obviously satisfied with the attitudes of Ma Dai and Gan Ning. No matter what the situation is, the first thing to do is to be corrected.

-----------------------------------------------------

Ma Chao received the battle reports from Hangu Pass and Linxiang in the past few days. He knew that Cao Cao personally led his troops all the way, but he was also blocked from Hangu Pass. And Wu Yi and the others found Ma Han and asked him to lead the troops to reinforce, so Hangu Pass was indeed not so easy to lose. Of course, Cao Cao brought Xun You and Cheng Yu together. This really has to be said that if they really had any plans, Wu Yi and the others might not be able to withstand it. But as long as there was not yet, then they believed that they could still withstand it.

Ma Chao believed Wu Yi and the other four, and they also believed in their own soldiers. After all, their own soldiers were stronger than the Yanzhou Army. This was not a blow, but recognized by the world. It was not that he looked down on the Yanzhou Army, they were powerful, and he also admitted it. But the so-called "the strong are more powerful than the strong". When they met their own soldiers, they could only be relatively weak. If they met someone stronger than themselves, then they were also weak. Isn't that the case?

But Linxiang is only more nervous than Hangu Pass. The information Ma Chao received was that Cao Ren asked Guo Huai and the others to lead troops to attack the city, so Ma Chao had to think about how long could Huang Zhong and the other three resist?

-----------------------------------------------------

It’s not that Ma Chao doesn’t believe in Huang Zhong and the other two, but Guo Huai’s combination is really strong. Didn’t Gan Ning not hold on before? Of course, there were not many people in Luo County at the time, and this was good, at least it was incomparable to Linxiang. So Ma Chao believed that if he could defend Linxiang for a long time, he could only rely on the guards in the city. He had to admit that more than 10,000 soldiers in Linxiang City were the key.

"Lord, lord, lord..."

When Ma Chao was thinking about this, he heard someone calling him softly. When he saw that it was Guo Jia. He came to his senses and thought that he was distracted? Yes, otherwise, Guo Jia would not have been like this.

"Cough, cough..." Ma Chao was a little embarrassed, and then continued: "Everyone, Jiangling City is now here, so our army cannot move forward. Liu Xuande is even more in charge with the vast majority of his troops here, everyone knows it! So now that the city is siege and cannot be captured for a long time, I think it's better to start digging tunnels and attack Jiangling!"

-----------------------------------------------------

As a result, when Ma Chao said this, Guo Jia frowned slightly. Obviously he did not agree with this. But Guo Jia also knew that his lord would not say so casually, so generally speaking, as long as it was what he said, it would basically be decided. Then everyone would discuss it. He just wanted to see what everyone thought.

So at this time, Guo Jia said: "Lord, Jia thinks it's not possible!"

"How can I see filial piety?"

When Ma Chao heard that Guo Jia opposed him, there were very few situations, so he was naturally interested in listening. Guo Jia said at this time: "Lord, Huo Jun is a general defending the city. Speaking of which, this is a small way to attack. Therefore, with his ability, he will naturally not be in abstaining from the precautions, so..."

"So, it is not advisable to dig the tunnel, right? You just want to say this for Fengxiao!"

Guo Jia nodded quickly when he heard this, "It's true! Lord, I have to make a long-term plan, this is not possible!"

-----------------------------------------------------

After hearing Guo Jia's words, Ma Chao said, "At this time, it's just a test. If Huo Jun discovers it, there is nothing he can do. But if it can be done, then wouldn't it be a good thing?"

When Guo Jia heard this, he shook his head slightly. He thought that such a thing would be possible. He thought that there was less than 20% of the chance of success. So such a pitiful 20% is really worth his own quarrel. You should know that this matter is not a simple matter. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a waste of money. So this is also a reason why Guo Jia opposed it, but now it seems that his lord has decided to do so.

Before Guo Jia could say anything, Ma Chao asked someone else, "I don't know if you have any other opinions and opinions, speak freely!"

The first person to speak was Hu Zhen. He had no sign of any performance since he brought his troops from Sili, and his lord didn't do much with him. So when he heard his lord ask him today, he thought it was his opportunity, so Hu Zhen hurriedly said: "My lord, my subordinates advise him, I think it's so feasible!"

-----------------------------------------------------

After hearing this, Ma Chao smiled, "Okay, okay. It seems that General Hu is very thoughtful, hahaha!"

When Guo Jia heard this, he shook his head in his heart and said to Hu Zhen, you are a mistake! He knew very well about how capable Hu Zhen is. If it was so easy as Hu Zhen thought, wouldn’t Jiangling City be destroyed long ago? So Guo Jia knew that he had to say a few more words, even if this matter might not have any major impact on him in the end, it was still not good.

So I heard him say, "Lord, I think this matter is not possible, this..."

As a result, before Guo Jia finished speaking, Ma Chao waved his hand and interrupted him, "Okay, this matter is settled! There is no need to say much about filial piety!"

When Guo Jia heard this, he thought to himself that his lord had to be like this. Well, the ancients said, "Give me a mistake and gain a wisdom." Only when he really suffers losses can he understand better that what he did at the beginning is a mistake. However, he still winked at Ma Dai and Gan Ning and others, and then persuaded his lord a few more words.

-----------------------------------------------------

As a result, they wanted to say it, but they were stopped by Ma Chao. He said directly: "Comeone is here to pass on our military orders, and they are in the camp..."

Before Ma Dai and Gan Ning could say anything, Ma Chao had already ordered the excavation. Guo Jia sighed helplessly in his heart, thinking that his lord couldn't listen to anything, and it was already a waste of time and there was nothing to say. Guo Jia, Ma Dai and Gan Ning looked at each other, and they all saw a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes.

That is, Hu Zhen, who is still content with his own compassion. He thought that he would agree with his lord's words and that his lord would be impressed by him. Maybe he would have a great responsibility to him in the future. As for Cui An, he did not care about digging anything about authenticity, but he did, and hoped that he could break Jiangling as soon as possible, and finally waved his halberd and killed his mother. If he didn't kill the Han army and Jingzhou army, he would not have the surname Cui!

-----------------------------------------------------

After Ma Chao issued the order and sent everyone away, he thought for a while. Of course he knew what Guo Jia meant, so Ma Chao did it on purpose. Of course, he did this not because he had any trouble, he just wanted to try it. It was that simple. If he didn't let him try it, he might not be able to sleep.

But Ma Chao also thought about it, why did he not listen to others today? Did he say he has changed? Or...

He didn't think this was a good thing, but how could he say it? Ma Chao didn't see what the most fundamental reason was. It was because he firmly insisted on his own ideas, so he didn't listen to others, or other reasons. In short, he knew it was not good anyway, but he couldn't explain clearly where the root cause was.

Finally, he sighed helplessly and said to himself: "Let's take one step at a time. Now, no matter what the authenticity is, you will have to try it!"

Ma Chao naturally knew that Huo Jun was not easy to deal with, but could there be any good solutions now? So that's all.

-----------------------------------------------------

Liu Bei and others in Jiangling City didn't know what Ma Chao was thinking at this moment. Even Huo Jun himself, he had never thought that Ma Chao could use tricks to dig tunnels to deal with him. But as a general defending the city, he could be said to be extremely strict in this matter. In fact, let alone Huo Jun, any experienced general attaches great importance to the method of digging tunnels when defending the city, so he is always on guard.

Therefore, let alone Huo Jun. A general like Wang Ping who was a fledgling and without any experience and was entrusted with important tasks is actually a minority after all. Wang Ping, like when he drank Yanzhou Army foot washing water, in this life, at least in terms of authenticity, he will basically not suffer any further.
