Three Kingdoms: Becoming Cao Cao's Chief Adviser at the Start

Hanzhong County, the defeated Ma Chao and others fled here.

At this time, Zhang Lu was also a little scared. Now that the Xiliang army was defeated, he was not optimistic about Ma Chao.

However, considering their old relationship, he was not easy to refuse, adding that Xiliang led troops to come.

Nowadays, the trend of the world belongs to Wei, and now Zhang Lu has completely turned to Cao Wei, and now he is helpless.

Ma Chao directly came to the government office in Hanzhong County and sat up.

"General Zhang, there are many nuisances here today."

In the previous battle, Ma Teng even died. Ma Chao naturally became the leader of Xiliang, and at the same time came to Hanzhong County in the name of Sima Yi.

Looking at Ma Chao and the others who came, he let out a sigh of relief, he was causing trouble.

As long as Xiliang is in this Hanzhong County, then Cao's army will inevitably come to attack, and now he has no choice at all.

"Meng Qi, sit down first."

He waved his hand casually and shouted towards the servant.

"Come on, have some tea.

Then Zhang Lucai turned around and looked at Ma Chao with a serious tone.

"I've already heard about the matter of your honor, and please mourn and change."

After saying this sentence, he kept observing Ma Chao's expression, and then his heart began to tremble.

When it came to his father, Ma Chao's expression didn't change at all.

Immediately, Zhang Lu's heart froze, and it seemed that Ma Chao was by no means a stubborn one.

Originally, Cao Yang also had the intention of soliciting Ma Chao, but he gave up the idea after a short contact.

As expected of Ma Chao, who was able to speak shocking words to Han Sui in his previous life.

"Now, Ma Chao has abandoned his father and has General Han as his father. General Han should also abandon his son and take Ma Chao as his son."

With just this one word, we can know that although Ma Chao is brave but not righteous, although he is a brave general, he cannot be reused.

Zhang Lu sighed deeply, knowing that he should listen to Yan Pu's words and cut off the relationship with Xiliang.

He looked at Ma Chao in front of him and asked again.

"I don't know if Meng Qi will return to Xiliang, what are your plans to come to my Hanzhong County?"

When asked here, his heart became slightly nervous.

Ma Chao suddenly showed a smile, he said lightly.

"Now that Cao's army of 100,000 troops is stationed in Longxian, you and I are already grasshoppers on the same line."

While speaking, he glanced at Sima Yi, obviously this speech was given by Sima Yi.

"In a few days, Cao's army will lead his army to attack Hanzhong County, and with your ability, it is impossible for us to compete with Cao's army.

"Only if we are united in strength and fight against Cao Cao together can we have a chance.

"If General Zhang can trust me, Ma Chao, and hand over military power to me, I will definitely be able to repel Cao's army!"

"General Zhang, you should be able to understand what I mean?"

Ma Chao looked at Zhang Lu with his sharp eyes, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Together with Zhang Lu, who was about to drink tea, he also stopped at this time, the tea cup in his hand was always by his mouth.

He put the tea cup in his hand back on the table and squeezed out a smile.

"Mengqi was exhausted by the two days of war, so let's rest for two days before we discuss.35

In the face of Ma Chao's frank questioning, he could only suspend the topic for two days.

Ma Chao smiled indifferently and didn't ask any further questions. He stood up and looked at the tea by the side of the table, which was no longer boiling.

He said that he picked up the tea cup and drank it, and then said to Zhang Luzuo.

"Since this is the case, Meng Qi will not bother General Zhang to think about it, and if General Zhang thinks about it, he can let me know at any time.

After speaking, he and Sima Yi turned and left.

Looking at the figures of the two, Zhang Lu exhaled again, this is really bringing the wolf into the room.

Now Ma Chao is thinking about the military power in his hands, and this time he came to ask for his military power.

Yan Pu on the side turned his attention to Zhang Lu and said.

"My lord, you must not hand over the military power to Ma Chao, this son's wolf ambition must not be!"

Zhang Lu said with some vicissitudes.

"How can I not know? But if I don't pay, then there are ways for the horses to persecute me. 35

"Now I have no choice at all.""

On one side, Yan Pu looked around and watched Zhang Lu make a gesture of wiping his neck.

Then he said softly,

"It's better if we don't do it and do it all the time and make a horse and give it to the king of Wei!

Zhang Lu's eyes flickered slightly, obviously a little moved.

But he has no one under him, and it is only the natural danger that occupies the lofty mountains and mountains around Hanzhong County that he can defend it for so long.

It's just that it's a bit difficult to fight against a general like Ma Chao.

He shook his head and said.

"Wait for a chance.

At the same time, after Ma Chao, who was stationed in Hanzhong County, returned to his residence, Sima Yi immediately stopped him.

Ma Chao asked with a puzzled look.

"Zhongda doesn't know what to call me?"

Sima Yi waved his hand and said with a light smile.

"My lord, please come inside."

Although Ma Chao had doubts, he was not in a hurry, he could understand what Sima Yi meant.

After the two entered the hall, Sima Yi even closed the door.

He looked at Ma Chao with a dignified look in his eyes.

"My lord, don't remember what I said.

"Tonight, if Zhang Lu doesn't come to take the initiative to find you tonight, he will raise troops to slaughter the Zhang family and forcefully control the military power. 99

As soon as this statement came out, even Ma Chao was slightly shocked.

He looked at Sima Yi in front of him and asked.

"Why is this?"

Sima Yi smiled lightly and looked at him.

"Hehe, if he doesn't give military power, it means that Zhang Lu has the intention of murdering the lord. 55

"If that's the case, then it's better to do it first, maybe Zhang Lu is already starting to murder the lord now.

"So it's best to leave some soldiers in the mansion just in case."

After hearing this, Ma Chao's eyes narrowed slightly. Although he was brave, how could he compare with Sima Yi in terms of strategy.

He nodded.

"I understand."

For a time, Hanzhong County, which seemed to be calm, was also surging behind the scenes.

Now that it is late autumn and winter is approaching, the sky is also bleak earlier, and now it is night.

In the sky, the moon and stars are sparse, and under the moonlight, nearly a thousand figures approach a mansion in the dark night.

In the mansion, there are a pair of deep eyes in the dark house, how could Ma Chao fall asleep at this time.

He often sleeps in the wild in the Western Liang, but he can detect the movement of any beast from a hundred paces away.

At this moment, he will not hear the actions of thousands of people within a hundred paces.

Although these people have been deliberately suppressing their movements, they still can't hide from Ma Chao's ears.

There was a glint of brilliance in his eyes, and sure enough, Zhang Lu couldn't help himself.

Everything was as Sima Yi said, but fortunately there were still a lot of elites in this mansion.

At this moment, although the mansion is dark, there are hundreds of elite soldiers waiting for them, and it is not a problem to fight against more than a thousand people.

Zhang Lu really looked down on him, and he used a thousand people to come here.

"Da da da!" The voice, which was obviously not loud, was clearly audible to everyone at this time.

There was no sign at all, and the soldier who stepped in first looked at his side in horror.

"Pfft!

The long sword has penetrated his body, and hundreds of elites have shot.

The soldier said with his last breath.

"There is... buried... buried"

The moonlight shone through the crack of the door, revealing the elite armored soldier.

There was no sign at all, and the two parties scuffled.

Ma Chao even brought out the gun himself, and from the crowd, he instantly saw Zhang Lu and Yan Pu, the counselor beside him.

he said coldly.

"General Zhang is too unkind."

Now that Zhang Lu has been seen through, he has nothing to pretend, he said lightly.

"Now that Cao Wei has become a major trend, if you turn back to the shore, it's still too late."

Zhang Lu has long had the intention of facing Wei.

Ma Chao smiled softly and said indifferently.

"It seems that there is nothing to talk about, everyone will kill me!"

The seven hundred soldiers under his command all came out with their knives and slashed directly at the more than one thousand men under Zhang Lu.

Zhang Lu was dismantled face to face, and his expression was a little unsightly. Today is an endless situation.

If you can't take Ma Chao, then you will die.

Just a quarter of an hour in the confrontation, Zhang Lu's side showed the color of defeat.

He sighed slightly and closed his eyes. He never imagined that Ma Chao had hidden seven hundred elites in the mansion.

He was defeated in this battle!

That night, the Zhang family in Hanzhong County was linked to three clans, and all military power was taken over by Xiliang Ma Chao.

Because of this, Sima Yi was even regarded by Ma Chao as the chief military adviser.

The status is not the same. In normal times, he was just a staff member, but now his status has changed greatly.

In other words, Ma Teng would probably still be wary of it, but Ma Chao would not.

The news spread to the surrounding counties in an instant.

Cao Yang, who was far away in Longxian County, naturally also received the news.

"My lord, Zhang Lu in Hanzhong County has been destroyed."

Cao Yang nodded, and there was a strange color in his eyes.

This is not Ma Chao's style at first glance, it must be Sima Yi's instigation.

As a result, they have recovered the old part of Hanzhong County, and I am afraid that there will be nearly 80,000 soldiers in their hands.

The surrounding mountains of Hanzhong County were easy to defend and difficult to attack. If they blocked it, it would not be easy for Cao's army to attack for a while.

Zhuge Liang and Guo Jia, who were beside him, all blinked.

This Hanzhong County was captured by Ma Chao, but it was the last thing he wanted to see.

Guo Jia looked at Cao Yang and asked.

"My lord, how do you plan to win this Hanzhong County?"

Seeing that Cao Yang was still drinking tea indifferently, Guo Jia, who still got along with him, knew that the lord had already had a countermeasure.

Cao Yang asked with a smile.

"I don't know what is the best way for you to get along?"

Zhuge Liang, who was below, said with a smile.

......0

"My lord, I have an idea!"

"When we fought against the southern barbarians, the soldiers of the southern barbarians regarded the mountains as plains, and if the barbarians came, they would definitely be able to break through Hanzhong.

Looking at Zhuge Liang, Cao Yang couldn't help showing a smile.

It was similar to what he thought, but he was already planning.

He said with a light smile.

"The elites I recruited in Nanman half a month ago should be almost the same."

As soon as these words came out, everyone froze in place, all gasping for breath.

"hiss!"

The fact that the lord and the soldiers of Xiliang escaped to Hanzhong County had already been calculated, which was too terrifying.

It is also a lifetime blessing that Xiliang was fortunate to be set up by the lord in such a big game.

Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment and then said with a bow.

"It's still the wise lord!"

This is not a compliment, this is what he said from the bottom of his heart, and his heart is extremely shocked.

Cao Yang waved his hand and said with a light smile.

"It's time for Xiahou Dun to return, it should be enough to recruit for so long in the Nanzhong area.

"At the same time, arrange the baggage that was transported to Chang'an two days ago.

"It's the armor of my unworthy flying army."

At this time, everyone is numb, and the armor is ready. It must be known that the manufacturing period of the armor is very long.

It seems that this premeditated plan is not half a month, at least more than a month to anticipate the current situation.

He looked at the crowd and said.

"Now we just need to keep a low profile and wait for the arrival of the Wudang Flying Army.

"Everyone, go away. 35

Cao Yang stood up and looked at the people who were leaving with a smile, but at this moment a dark guard suddenly stepped forward.

"My lord, there is something important to order.

He looked at the dark guard in front of him and asked.

"What's the matter?"

The dark guard nodded and said.

"It's the Prime Minister's business!"

Hearing this, Cao Yang finally showed a hint of surprise, and he asked curiously.

"Father, what is he doing now?"

The dark guard paused and continued.

"The prime minister went out hunting with the young emperor recently, and it seems that he is judging who is loyal to Han and who is loyal to Wei in the current court.35

As soon as this statement came out, Cao Yang was stunned on the spot, and he was extremely shocked. What is Cao Cao trying to do?

Identifying the current situation and position of the imperial court, is this trying to usurp the Han?

It stands to reason that Cao Cao is not the one who did such a thing, which made Cao Yang extremely curious.

However, now that Cao Wei is in such a situation, even if he is proclaimed emperor, there is nothing wrong with it.

But think of the name Cao Cao gave him.

His face changed slightly, but he didn't say much, he looked at the dark guard and nodded.

"I know, don't tell anyone about this."
