Rebirth God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 1269: Depressed Ma Chao

When everyone heard Zhang Lu's remarks, they kept silent, and some people didn't understand why Zhang Lu rejected Liu Bei so much. After all, Liu Bei represented the Han Dynasty.

"My lord, the Marquis of Jin has not yet sent troops. After the Marquis of Jin leads the troops, let him see how powerful the Hanzhong army is before we talk about it." Zhang Weidao.

Zhang Wei is Zhang Lu's younger brother. He is famous for his bravery and combat skills in the army, and he has won Zhang Lu's trust.

"My lord, when Ma Chao was in Liangzhou, he once led an army to attack Chang'an, and he had a lot of enmity with the Marquis of Jin. Now that Ma Chao leads the army to station in Mianyang, is there something wrong?" Yang Song took the opportunity to ask.

In his conspiracy with Pang Tong, Ma Chao is a very key figure. Ma Chao is brave and good at fighting, and quite strategic. If he is stationed in Mianyang, it will be extremely unfavorable for the Chang'an army to enter Hanzhong.

Zhang Lu shook his head and said, "General Ma is brave, what's wrong with stationing in Mianyang?"

"My lord, Ma Chao has hundreds of cavalry under his command, and he is good at winning people's hearts in the Mianyang army. He threatens to lead his troops back to Liangzhou and capture Hanyang in the future." Yang Song whispered.

Zhang Lu's face tightened. Although he had doubts about taking refuge in Lu Bu, it didn't mean that he would let his soldiers follow Ma Chao to fight in Liangzhou.

The reason why Zhang Lu didn't dislike Lv Bu was because Lv Bu's attitude towards the common people was similar to his. On this point, the two could be said to have a common understanding.

"General Yang Ang, you lead two thousand soldiers to assist Ma Chao in guarding Mianyang. Yang Bo, I order you to go to the Mianyang army." Zhang Lu ordered.

"Here." The two clasped their fists in unison.

When Ma Chao first arrived in Hanzhong, Zhang Lu admired Ma Chao very much, and even wanted to betroth his daughter to Ma Chao, but he did not do so under the persuasion of Yang Song and others. In their view, Ma Chao He is someone who is very likely to bring disaster to Hanzhong. After all, it was the Marquis of Jin who Ma Chao offended.

Even so, Zhang Lu appointed Ma Chao to lead soldiers and horses to guard Mianyang to prevent soldiers and horses from Chang'an and Liangzhou, and granted Ma Chao a sacrificial wine.

This sacrificial wine has nothing to do with his position in the army. Zhang Lu advocated the Five Dou Rice Religion in Hanzhong, and he called himself a teacher. Those who are new to Taoism are called "ghost soldiers", and they have a certain status. Only then can he be consecrated as sacrificial wine, and Zhang Lu has set up "Yi She", "Yi Rice" and "Yi Meat" in various places, providing free food for passers-by, and even arranging free accommodation. This is why Liu Zhang is jealous of Zhang Lu.

Zhang Lu's Five Dou Rice Religion, to a certain extent, is the concentration of the Yellow Turban. What a terrifying existence the Yellow Turban is. After so many years, the Yellow Turban is still tenaciously surviving. Of course, Zhang Lu did not realize that what he did was wrong. After all, they are really thinking about the people.

After the rest left, Yang Song stayed alone and had a discussion with Zhang Lu, but looking at Yang Song's expression when he walked out of the prefect's mansion, it was obvious that the desired effect was not achieved.

Even if Zhang Lu is obsessed with the Five Dou Rice Sect, he still has a clear understanding of the big aspects. Otherwise, he would not have been in Hanzhong for many years. It is reasonable for Lu Bu to want to seize Hanzhong.

Hanzhong overlooks Guanzhong in the north, covers Bashu in the south, reaches Xiangyang in the east, and controls Qin and Long in the west. If Liu Bei occupies Hanzhong, he will have the capital to further threaten Chang'an.

Pang Tong stayed in Hanzhong for several days. After getting a satisfactory answer, he asked Zhang Lu to resign. Zhang Lu sent him off in person and treated Pang Tong with great courtesy.

Since he was defeated in Liangzhou and Ma Chao took refuge in Zhang Lu, he was naturally very happy to see Zhang Lu attaching great importance to him. However, Zhang Lu's civilian and military generals had a lot of precautions against him, especially Lu Bu stationed troops in Chang'an After 50,000 yuan, many officials under Zhang Lu's command were a little jealous of Ma Chao.

Depressed, Ma Chao asked Zhang Lu to be stationed in Mianyang. Mianyang is close to Wudu. Ma Chao once occupied Wudu at the beginning. What a glorious figure he was in Liangzhou. He naturally thought that one day he would be able to lead troops back to Liangzhou. Knowing that he made a slip of the tongue after drinking, these words reached the ears of Zhang Lu and others.

The arrival of Yang Ang and Yang Bai made Ma Chao's grasp of the army a little loose. During this period of time, with his superb martial arts, he has indeed won the favor of many soldiers in the army. It is under Zhang Lu's command, and Yang Ang and Yang Bai have high prestige in the army.

Especially after learning that the envoy of the Marquis of Jin went to Hanzhong and received Zhang Lu's courtesy, Ma Chao felt even more depressed. The reason why he took refuge in Zhang Lu was that he had taken a fancy to Zhang Lu's ability to fight against Liu Zhang in Yizhou for many years. He is an ambitious person, and after observing for a period of time, he found that Zhang Lu is not very concerned about the affairs of the army, but is obsessed with the Five Dou Rice Sect. According to the development of the situation, Zhang Lu is very likely to join him Lu Bu, wouldn't he become a general under the Marquis of Jin by that time? This is something Ma Chao can't stand.

Although Ma Teng did not die at the hands of Lu Bu, he had an indirect relationship with Lu Bu. Even though he had a certain respect for Lu Bu, it would not affect the hatred in his heart.

"General Ma, this general also came here under orders, and I hope the general will be considerate." Yang Bai said lightly, looking at Ma Chao with a hint of pity.

Ma Chao clasped his fists and said, "It's serious, the last general is under Zhang Taishou's command, so he naturally obeys orders."

Seeing that Ma Chao behaved more well-behaved, Yang Bai and Yang Ang were quite satisfied.

Yang Bo knew about Yang Song's plan. As for Yang Song wanting Zhang Lu to join Lu Bu, it was no secret in Hanzhong. Yang Bo did not reject Lu Bu. Not low, martial arts can only be regarded as average, leading and rushing to the battlefield, in his opinion, is a too dangerous thing, far inferior to enjoying the glory and wealth in the mansion.

Ma Chao had heard about Yang Ang and Yang Bai, and he was honest about them.

The mobilization of soldiers and horses in Chang'an and the situation in Jingzhou and Yizhou made the princes look at Yizhou again. Yizhou is close to Jingzhou, Liangzhou and Sili area. From the mobilization of soldiers and horses in Chang'an, they could feel that this time, Lu Bu would not let Liu Bei capture Yizhou easily.

The importance of Yizhou is unquestionable. Not only Liu Bei, but other princes also want to get Yizhou. The fertile fields are thousands of miles away and the terrain is dangerous. Once occupied, it means that there will be no worries and it will be able to provide a steady stream of food for the army.

Yanzhou, State Shepherd's Mansion.

"My lord, there is a close relationship between Yizhou and Jingzhou. I am afraid that Liu Zhang is afraid of the troops of the Marquis of Jin in Chang'an and wants to ask Liu Bei for help." Xun Yu said.
