Three Kingdoms: The identity of the financial master behind the scenes was exposed by Cao Cao

brush!

Ma Chao jumped up and paced with his hands behind his back.

He pondered for a long time.

Ma Chao said sternly:"I must not be trapped in Longxi. I must take back Chang'an, even if I take risks, I will not hesitate!"

The decision was made.

Ma Chao then decided to lead the army himself and attack the north.

The blood of all the generals was boiling, and they all generously asked to fight and guard the royal pavilion.

Ma Chao was hesitant, unable to decide who to order to guard the street pavilion.

In the battle of Chang'an, there were countless casualties among the fierce generals under his command, but there were not many generals worthy of big posts.

General Cheng Gongying can barely use it.

However, the battle at Jieting was a matter of life and death for the Ma family, and he was worried about leaving this important task to outsiders.

In times of dilemma.

Ma Dai took a step forward and said with enthusiasm:"Brother Wang, I would like to guard the street pavilion!"

Ma Chao's eyes lit up.

Ma Dai's general talents are well known to everyone.

Moreover, he is also a cousin of the Ma family.

It’s the perfect time to go from Ma Dai to Shojieting.

"good! Ma

Chao said happily:"I will give Ziyue ten thousand elite soldiers, and Cheng Gongying will be your lieutenant. You must guard the street pavilion for me!""

"Brother Wang, don't worry"

"The street pavilion is related to the life and death of my Ma family. Even if I risk my life, I will guard the street pavilion for Brother Wang!"

Ma Dai issued the military order with great enthusiasm. Ma Chao breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, Ma Dai led 10,000 elite troops and went straight to the street pavilion.

Ma Chao personally led 30,000 elite troops, using the cover of night, to attack Beidi County..

To the east of the Longshan Mountains is Tiancheng.

The 250,000 troops commanded by Cao Cao are marching westward in a mighty manner.

Passing this city to the west is the Long Valley Road.

The army is encamped.

As soon as Cao Cao sat down, he sent back a secret report, saying Ma Chao has commanded the army and left Jicheng and headed straight to Jieting.

"Prince, everything is as expected."

"As expected, Ma Chao, a thief, knew how to guard the street pavilion."

Cao Cao looked at his son with a sneer.

Cao Yuan smiled and ordered the map to be brought in.

The eyes of the kings and ministers of the Wei Dynasty all fell on the map, that small city.

Street pavilion!

"Ma Chao's intention is nothing more than to occupy the street pavilion and block our army in the Long Valley Road."

"When the Xiongnu of Bingzhou, Gongsundu of Liaodong, and the Xianbei people of Youbei went south, our army was forced to reorganize the eastern division, and he would naturally escape death."

Pang Tong revealed Ma Chao's intention.

Cao Cao nodded and said:"Cao Ren obeys the order!"

"I'm here!"

Cao Ren stepped forward generously.

Cao Cao said:"I will give you 80,000 troops. You can cross Longshan immediately and level the street pavilions within seven days!"

"Don't say seven days, I will destroy the street pavilion within six days!"

Cao Renhao took the lead

…

To the southwest of the street pavilion.

On the avenue.

Ma Daizheng led 10,000 Qin troops and hurried northward.

The sun is setting in the west and it is getting late.

Ma Dai reined in his horse and raised his head to look in the direction of Long Mountain.

He knew that at this time, Cao Cao and his son were leading more than 200,000 Wei troops through Longshan.

The hatred and anger over Ma Teng's death surged in his heart.

How can we forget this hatred at this moment!

In today's battle, he will not only defend the street pavilion, but also kill the Wei army and avenge Ma Teng.

"Cao Yuan, if you dare to come in person, it would be best, I will kill you with my own hands to avenge my uncle Wang!"

Ma Dai gritted his teeth and swore secretly.

After that,

Ma Dai rode his horse and whipped his whip, and continued to mobilize the army, heading straight to the street pavilion.

Before evening, he arrived at the street pavilion.

The scene in front of him made Ma Dai confused.

In his imagination, Jieting City should be a strong city with high and thick walls.

But the city in front of us is a small, dilapidated city with low walls.

How can such a dilapidated city withstand the siege of 250,000 Wei troops?

"Send the order, the army is stationed outside the city!"

Ma Dai did not let the army enter the city.

The soldiers of the Qin army had been working hard on the road, and they were all relieved at this moment, so they began to set up camp in the small city and bury pots to make rice.

Ma Dai rode his horse up a slope and looked at the terrain near the street pavilion from a distance.

The sound of horse hooves sounded, and Cheng Gongying came on horseback.

"General Ziyue, why don't we enter the street pavilion instead of setting up camp outside the city?

Cheng Gongying asked in confusion. Ma

Dai said disapprovingly:"You just obey orders, why bother asking.""

Cheng Gong was stuck in English and had to keep silent.

Ma Dai continued to look at the terrain.

He soon saw that although Jieting City was in a strategic location, the nearby terrain was flat enough to station 70,000 to 80,000 troops.

"80,000 Wei troops besieged the city, and I only had 10,000 troops. How could I possibly hold it?……"

Ma Dai frowned slightly and muttered to himself.

Suddenly.

A light flashed in Ma Dai's dim eyes.

On the east side of the street pavilion and south of the valley, a cliff comes into view.

The cliff is a hundred feet high, densely forested, and surrounded by flat land, like a natural city.

Keep looking.

Ma Dai also saw that the cliff was wide at the bottom and narrow at the top. There were cliffs on three sides, and there was only one slope leading to the top of the mountain.

Moreover, there seems to be a large piece of flat land on the top of the mountain, enough to station troops and horses.

Ma Dai was so excited that he rode his horse up the cliff.

On the top of the cliff, it is indeed a flat area, enough to station ten thousand elite soldiers.

Looking down from the top of the mountain, Jieting City has a panoramic view, and the valley road to the north is also within the range of the crossbow at the top of the mountain.

"Camped on the top of this mountain, even if Cao Cao and his son had an army of millions, they would never be able to attack it.……"

Ma Dai's thoughts were racing, and a sand table appeared in his mind.

He pondered for a long time.

Determination flashed in Ma Dai's eyes, and he said:"Send the order, the army will go up the mountain immediately and set up camp!"

Cheng Gongying was shocked.

Ma Chao's original order was for Ma Dai to defend Jieting City.

He is disobeying the king's order.

"General Ziyue, we have a city but cannot defend it, why should we abandon the city and go up the mountain? Cheng

Gongying immediately asked

"The walls of Jieting are low and flat on all sides, which is conducive to the expansion of the Wei army."

"If we enter the street pavilion, we won't be able to stay there for too long."

"This cliff has a dangerous terrain and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is a natural strong city."

"It's so dangerous, but it's stupid to defend the city!"

Ma Dai spoke eloquently, pointing out the pros and cons.

He moved his hands and feet, and there was a sense of arrogance all over his body, as if he was proud of his decision.

The generals on the left and right seemed to be persuaded by him, and they all agreed.

"This cliff is indeed a natural hazard. Cheng

Gongying changed the subject and said:"It's just that the king asked us to stick to the street pavilion, but General Ziyue abandoned it and went up the mountain. Doesn't it mean he was disobeying the king's order? When the king blames us, what should we do?""
