After the visitor brought the horse out of the forest, although he was still far from Ma Chao and the others, the man still shouted loudly to them: "I have heard of the name of Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi for a long time in Fufeng. When I saw him today, it is indeed worthy of his reputation! Hahaha!"

Ma Chao also laughed, but he said in his heart, as for whether he is guarding himself like this, he will not do anything to you. Besides, there are three or four thousand people behind you. Are those things all decorations? As for.

"Hahaha! Could it be that Zhang Ren is not successful?"

Ma Chao asked immediately, but he also knew that this person could not be Zhang Ren. But he didn't know who it was.

However, the visitor nodded and replied: "The governor of the state is indeed a wise eye, and Zhang Ren is here! Now I am waiting for the governor of the state, and I want to see the governor of the state! Now I have the honor to meet the governor of the state, and I have been lucky enough to meet the governor of the state!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Chao continued to laugh, "You are in broad daylight, but why are you talking nonsense here? Is it really Zhang Ren? Could it be that you really bully Muru of this state's three-year-old naughty boy? Such words are so ridiculous!"

When the visitor heard this, he couldn't laugh anymore, thinking that there was something wrong with him? Or...

The visitor thought to himself, Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi had definitely never seen General Zhang before, but why did the other party decide that he was not General Zhang? But he didn't think about it, so he stopped thinking about it. At this time, he said directly: "Oh, the Zhou Mu is indeed very wise, but he didn't cheat him! Yes, he is not General Zhang, but is serving under General Zhang's account, and the one with the surname Liu and the name Liu is!"

After hearing this, Ma Chao nodded and continued, "It turned out to be General Liu, but I don't know what kind of expensive General Liu is here?"

Liu Xu smiled slightly, "I dare not call the general like this. I am just waiting for the army of the governor here on General Zhang's order. However, now the task of being assigned to him has been completed, so I will say goodbye!"

As he said that, he bowed to Ma Chao and his side, and then said to the Yizhou soldiers behind him: "Let's go!"

So the other party retreated in a flash, and Wu Anguo wanted to lead his troops to chase him, but Ma Chao quickly grabbed him, "Wu An must not be reckless, and should not act rashly!"

Guo Jia nodded from the side, and he said to Wu Anguo: "Since the other party dares to ambush here, he must have some support. Moreover, General Wu'an takes a good look. The other party is not afraid of their troops in terms of combat power, but our cavalry is sufficiently prepared. If we advance rashly, we will probably not get any advantage. And you know that Zhang Ren is really the only ambush. If there are a few such teams in front, then..."

Speaking of this, Guo Jia slowly shook his head. In fact, he didn't say one aspect, that is, although his side did not come from afar, he also came here from Mianzhu. He had been marching for a long time, so the soldiers were a little tired. But the enemy was obviously waiting for work here, so the other side had the advantage, while the other side was obviously at a disadvantage. So no matter what the other side was, he did not move troops in the end and retreated directly. In fact, if you think about it carefully, this is actually beneficial to both sides.

Wu Anguo understood this, and he nodded, thinking that this was true, and he was still a little impulsive. If his lord felt that there was no problem, he would have arrested the previous one named Liu Xu long ago, which would make him so arrogant. Yes, in Wu Anguo's eyes, what Liu Xu said before was a manifestation of arrogance, and he was just unhappy-

Liu Xi returned to Luo County with the soldiers of Yizhou. At this time, he was replying to his general Zhang Ren.

“How was the matter I told you to be done?”

When Zhang Ren saw Liu Xi coming back, he knew that he had completed the tasks he assigned to him. However, Liu Xi had to tell him about the specific matters, so that he could understand them.

Liu Xunze said: "Return to General, that's it..."

So Liu Xun told Zhang Ren about everything that happened after his ambush. After Zhang Ren heard this, he nodded and said, "Okay, I already know this. You have only led the troops back. Let's go down and have a good rest!"

"No! I'll leave!"

After saying that, Liu Xun stepped out. As for Zhang Ren, to be honest, he was quite satisfied with Ma Chao's performance at this time.

Yes, letting Liu Xuan ambush the ambush in the middle was actually a behavior that Zhang Ren deliberately tested Ma Chao and tested him. He didn't think that just by his thousands of troops, Zhang Ren would not be so arrogant. And he mainly tested Ma Chao's three places. The first one was the ambush. If Ma Mengqi was still observing carefully and careful, he would definitely find abnormalities in the woods. Then if he couldn't even find the first one, he could only say that Ma Mengqi was really disappointing.

Fortunately, Ma Chao discovered it first. As for Zhang Ren, he didn't know that it was Guo Jia's credit, so he just thought that Ma Chao discovered it.

The second is that Liu Xi pretended to be Zhang Ren. Zhang Ren knew that Ma Chao had never seen him, so of course he didn't know his appearance, so he deliberately asked Liu Xi to pretend to be himself to see how Ma Chao reacted and whether he could be fooled. If Ma Chao was really deceived and thought that Liu Xi was himself, then he had nothing to worry about. However, Ma Mengqi was not deceived, but he still saw through this and knew that Liu Xi was not him. So Zhang Ren was satisfied with him and passed this level.

As for the third last, it was Ma Chao's attitude towards his ambush. As a result, Ma Chao did not chase him, and the two sides finally said goodbye peacefully. This was actually the best result, and everyone was happy, right? Zhang Ren also thought that this was the best result, and there was nothing else. He did not think that his thousands of people could pose a great threat to Ma Chao, but he did not think that the army brought by Ma Chao could wipe out his ambush.

So in the end, no matter what, his own temptation was very successful. And he, Ma Mengqi, was indeed qualified to fight with him as a hostile enemy. He was looking forward to him and the arrival of his Liangzhou army at this time.

This is Zhang Ren. He simply tested Ma Chao's ability. The result was indeed not much different from what he thought, so he was really looking forward to fighting Ma Chao. Now there are less than 30,000 Yizhou soldiers guarding Luo County. As for Ma Chao, he also knows that at most 30,000 troops. So Ma Chao does not have any advantage in military strength. So Zhang Ren wanted to see how he took such an important Luo County from his hands! If he really had such ability, he admired him and didn't say anything!

When Ma Chao led his army to the foot of Luo County, he directly ordered the army to set up camp. Then of course he continued to rest. After all, he had just come from Mianzhu and arrived in Luo County, so it was impossible to attack the city directly. Even if it was a test, it would not be possible. Under normal circumstances, Ma Chao would never do this.

At night, of course, it is still strictly guarded against Zhang Ren's army coming to rob the camp. However, in fact, both Ma Chao and Guo Jia think that Zhang Ren will not do this, but just "prevent problems before they happen". You have to be careful, right?

Sure enough, Zhang Ren didn't do this, and he didn't bring the army to rob the camp at night. In fact, Zhang Ren also knew that Ma Chao's Liangzhou soldiers were tired, but he didn't think he could destroy the Liangzhou army in one battle, so he didn't want to do this. And what he wanted to do was to guard Luo County and finally force Ma Mengqi to retreat. So this was actually a victory. Is there anything more stable than this? At least Zhang Ren couldn't think of it for the time being.

Generally speaking, Zhang Ren did things that he felt were more sure of, so for the sake of safety, he did not lead the army to rob the camp. Instead, he closed the gates of Luo County tightly, and strictly prevented Ma Chao from attacking the city at night.

The things that came to Zhang Ren were the opposite. Because whether it was Yan Yan or Lei Tong and Deng Xian, they both went to the camp to rob the camp at night after Zhao Yun brought the troops on the first day. However, Zhang Ren did not do this. He asked the soldiers of the Yizhou Army to be on guard against Ma Chao to attack the city at night. I don’t know what Zhang Ren should say, but he did this, anyway, and he was sure enough to do so. At least this was not wrong.

After Ma Chao's army rested for a day, on the second day, Ma Chao asked the army to continue to rest because he was really unsure at this time. If his side did not have the advantage, how could he capture Luo County? This is too difficult, and Guo Jia had no good idea. Could it be that he could only attack? Ma Chao knew that he did not have many available soldiers now, so he would lose less. He felt distressed. I guess if this was the case, even if he arrived at the city of Chengdu, there might be only four or five thousand people left.

So, on the second day, Ma Chao continued to let the army rest. On the third day, the fourth day, until the fifth day, Ma Chao allowed the army to rest under Luo County for more than four days. This was the only one he had since sent troops to Yizhou, from Jiameng Pass, and until now. It was the first time that he had done this.

Whether it is Wu'anguo or Guo Jia, they actually saw their lord's worries. So Guo Jia was going to find an opportunity to talk to his lord. If the army was stationed at the city without any movement at all, it would be detrimental to us.
