"How about uncle?"

Seeing Ma Chao coming back, Liu Chan immediately came forward to ask.

When Bai Jiebing found someone approaching the camp, he immediately reported it, and Ma Chao went out in person.

"The person who came was none other than Pang De. When he saw me here, he probably had no other thoughts." Ma Chao answered.

"That's good, that's good."Liu Chan breathed a sigh of relief.

At present, the Han army is strong outside the camp, but once Cao Jun peeks into the situation, it will immediately turn into a disastrous defeat. By then, the seven flooded armies will not be able to perform. Liu Chan is actually very nervous.

"Your Highness, the lucky person has his own destiny, and God will definitely bless you." Ma Chao expressed relief.

Liu Chan immediately smiled bitterly when he heard this. There had been a wave of"following the rules" before, and it seemed that the people below had become very superstitious.

Not wanting to talk about this, Liu Chan changed the subject and said:"If the dam is built successfully, Cao's army will be defeated. Undoubtedly, it was expected that General Pound would also be captured. Has uncle thought about it?"

"Your Highness wants to ask...Will Pound surrender to us?"Ma Chao immediately reacted.

"Exactly"

"Based on my understanding of Ling Ming, he should rather die than surrender."Ma Chao shook his head slowly.

"Why are you willing to surrender to Wei but not to Han?"Liu Chan didn't understand this.

"When I defeated Cao Cao, I went to Hanzhong and returned to Zhang Lu's command. Ma Chao explained:"As my lord, I submit to Zhang Lu. As Pang De's subordinate, I will naturally submit to Zhang Lu as well.""

"Later, Cao Cao attacked Hanzhong, Zhang Lu surrendered to Cao Cao, and Pang De followed suit and surrendered."

"The second surrender was actually due to the surrender of the lord, and Pang De had no choice but to surrender. Ma Chao continued:"Ling Ming has always been strong. If given the chance to choose, he will never surrender to others.""

"What's more, again and again and again, based on my understanding of Pound, this time he said he would never surrender again."

"Even if you, uncle, persuade you as the old master, Pang De will not surrender to the Han?"Liu Chan was very surprised

"Not surprisingly, this should be the case. Ma Chao was helpless and said:"Besides, Pang De shot Guan Yu with a dirty arrow. Guan Yu may not spare him.""

"Rather than begging Guan Yu in a lowly manner, it would be better to fulfill Pang De's wish."

Liu Chan suddenly realized after hearing this. On the one hand, there is a high probability that Pang De will not surrender again. On the other hand, Ma Chao does not want to bow his head to Guan Yu and plead for mercy.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Chan suggested:"I think so....If his uncle could beg for mercy, Pound might not want to die."

"What's the meaning?"

"What a bitter trick. Liu Chan prompted:"You, the old master, have sacrificed your face to seek a chance of life for Pang De. Is Pang De embarrassed to let you down?""

Ma Chao was thoughtful and somewhat understood what Liu Chan meant.

However, the relationship between him and Guan Yu was very tense, and Ma Chao was a proud and arrogant person. It was difficult to make up his mind for a while.

Liu Chan saw that he was relaxed and persuaded again:"Uncle, come back. For many years in the Han Dynasty, it has not been reused. In addition to some old things that made my father worried, there is another reason."

"What?" Ma Chao quickly asked.

Ma Chao knew that his cheating behavior had a great impact on him.

Not only did Liu Bei not dare to be important, but Zhang Lu didn't trust Ma Chao before.

But in addition, there were other reasons, which Ma Chao didn't understand.

"My uncle has no power."Liu Chan reminded:"There are many factions under my father's command, and the power has been divided up, and each has its own ownership."

"If your uncle wants to take on a big responsibility, he needs to steal it from other people. But you are alone, how can you do it?"

"I think that if my uncle takes the lead in creating a"Liangzhou faction", he will have a chance to gain a foothold in the court in the future. Especially when he attacks Liangzhou in the future, he will definitely be able to take on a big responsibility!"

Liu Bei already has five mountains under his command. What's the harm in having one more?

As the saying goes, if there are too many lice, they will not be itchy. This is the truth. If there is only one faction under the monarch, then the monarch will have a headache.

If there are two or three factions, they can restrain each other. Play a balancing role.

But both of them are obviously not suitable for Liu Bei's subordinates. There are currently five factions, plus the Liangzhou faction. Liu Bei probably doesn't feel much, and it is estimated that each faction should have a headache.

After all, the more factions, It means the more people share the cake

"Your Highness...Why tell this to the general? Ma Chao's eyes were confused,"Aren't you worried that after the general takes power?"...Backlash?"

"how come? I am married to my uncle's daughter."Liu Chan smiled calmly.

"What is a son-in-law? Ma Chao laughed at himself:"When I fell out, I didn't even care about my own father.""

"Does uncle regret it?"Liu Chan said heartily.

Ma Chao was silent when he heard this. He obviously regretted it, otherwise he wouldn't have been silent.

"Since he would regret it, he would not make the same mistake a second time."Liu Chan comforted him and said:"If a person is not a sage, who can have no faults?"

"Although the mistake my uncle made is a bit big, my nephew believes that you must have the intention to change things, so you are naturally willing to trust your uncle."

Ma Chao suddenly stood up, saluted Liu Chan solemnly, then turned and left without saying a word.

There was no words all night.

At the darkest time before dawn, Guan Yu returned with his army.

"Father Zhong, what's wrong?"

"Everything is ready, just waiting for water storage! Guan Yu twisted his long beard that was wet under his chin,"I asked Tanzhi to lead five hundred people to stay at the dam, and only wait for the rain to stop before opening the gate to release the water!""

"Very good!"Liu Chan looked happy.

"How is Adou doing here? Is there anything going on last night?"

"Pang De tried to find out the truth, but was frightened away by Uncle Meng Qi, so he was not exposed."Liu Chan takes credit for Ma Chao

"It's somewhat useful."Guan Yu made a neutral comment.

The heavy rain continued all night, and it wasn't until dawn approached noon that the sky cleared.

Such heavy rain was enough to fill the temporary dam.

Guan Ping looked at the full dam near and couldn't help but look downstream. Go, as if you have seen the end of Cao Jun.

Taking a deep breath, Guan Ping ordered in a deep voice:

"flood discharge!!!"
