    "What the military advisor said is true. {-< Piaotian Literature registered members recommend this work >- Net } The matter of recruiting soldiers and horses will be left in your hands."

    "Don't worry, my lord, if Wen Bufan dares to come, I am willing to be the vanguard and take the head of the thief for my lord!"

    As soon as Zhang Lu finished speaking, the young general with a distorted face and sinister eyes immediately came to pay homage. Lu took a closer look, and suddenly the corners of his mouth turned up, revealing a sinister smile.  This person was Ma Chao, who defeated the entire Liangzhou at the hands of Wen Han. After Ma Chao and Ma Dai escaped from Jincheng, they fled all the way, running non-stop on a starry night, and did not dare to rest until they passed the Ziwu Valley. Later, they were discovered by Zhang Lu's troops.  , in order to save his life, Ma Chao temporarily joined Zhang Lu's command.

    Ma Chao¡¯s hatred for Wen Han can be described as irreconcilable.  Ma Chao thought day and night about how to make a comeback and kill Wen Han, his mortal enemy.  Now is a great time for Ma Chao to take revenge!

    "Haha. Meng Qi is here. I, He Ju Na Wen Bufan! Don't worry, Meng Qi. If Wen Bufan really dares to send troops to invade Hanzhong, I will make you the vanguard of the army!"

    Zhang Lu Zhuhong¡¯s big mouth grinned and he laughed sinisterly.  Ma Chao was overjoyed when he heard this. Although he had no respect at all for Zhang Lu, a lord who was neither human nor ghost, he still pretended to be respectful and thanked him.

    "Thank you, Lord!"

    This Jin Machao, who was famous in Xiliang in the past, is now under his command. Zhang Lu was very upset and comforted Ma Chao. The two of them were hypocritical, and they dispersed soon after.

    Afterwards, Yan Pu followed Zhang Lu's orders and recruited more than 20,000 new soldiers in Hanzhong, who were trained by Zhang Wei and Ma Chao. At this time, Hanzhong, plus Zhang Lu's original 30,000 soldiers and horses, had a total strength of 50,000.

    Zhang Wei and Ma Chao trained the new recruits for several months.  Suddenly, soldiers came to report that the Han hussar general and champion Hou Wenhan was ordered by the court to send 30,000 troops from Hedong to conquer Zhang Lu in Hanzhong. At this time, Wenhan's army had rushed into Fufeng County, Yongzhou!

    But it was said that Wen Han's army had finished recuperating in Fufeng, and that all supplies of food, fodder, baggage, and armaments were in complete condition under the deployment of Zhong Yao.  Wen Han then continued his march towards Hanzhong.  It was divided into three teams, with Pang De and Cheng Yin as the vanguard at the front, Wen Han leading generals Zhao Yun and Xu Huang in the center, and Zhang Liao and Zhou Cang at the rear escorting the grain and grass.

    Lu was shocked when a detailed report arrived in Hanzhong. He quickly summoned his subordinates to discuss the strategy of resisting the enemy. Pu's face was calm, his eyes were shining, and he remonstrated calmly.

    "The most dangerous place in Hanzhong is none other than Yangping Pass. You can go to the left and right of the pass, close to the mountains and forests, and build more than ten stockades to meet the enemy Wen Bufan's army. The Lord is in Hanning, so he allocates more grain and grass to support the army. Wen Bufan  The soldiers and horses have traveled a long distance, and if there is an opportunity, the lieutenants of the army can lead the army to sneak attack and win first to boost the army's morale and morale! "

    "What the military advisor said is very good, follow it immediately!"

    Yan Pu¡¯s determination made Zhang Lu feel a little more confident.  That is to say, according to what he said, he sent general Ma Chao, as well as generals such as Ma Dai, Yang Ang, Yang Ren, etc., with an army of 10,000, and set off immediately.  Ma Chao received the order, and because of the anger and high morale in his heart, he led his army to set off that night. He hurried on the starry night to Yangping Pass. He set up more than ten strongholds in dangerous places near the mountains and forests, and the next move was decided.  Ma Chao then ordered his troops to rest, recharge their batteries, and wait for the enemy.

    Pang De and Cheng Yin's former troops arrived soon. They heard that Yangping Pass was prepared and did not dare to attack rashly. After some discussion, Pang De and Cheng Yin set up camp fifteen miles away from the pass.

    It was night, and the soldiers of the Wen army were tired and rested separately. They were afraid that Zhang Lu's army would take advantage of this to make a sneak attack, so they asked Cheng Yin to lead a group of soldiers and horses to guard behind the stronghold, just in case.  Unexpectedly, Cheng Yin traveled a long distance and was physically and mentally exhausted. Moreover, Pound was a newly promoted general. When Han Sui and Ma Teng were fighting, Cheng Yin and Pound had many confrontations.  Therefore, Cheng Yin has always been unwilling to accept that Pound was so reused by Wenhan.  At that moment, Pang De gave the order, and Cheng Yin accepted the order, but did not pay attention to it in his heart. He sent dozens of cavalry to patrol behind the stronghold and put an end to the matter hastily.

    At three o'clock in the night, suddenly the sound of arrows piercing the sky was heard from behind the stronghold. Under the cover of the dark night, ten arrows unknowingly took the lives of more than a dozen civilian cavalrymen. The remaining ones were all used by others.  He was dragged off his horse with a scratching hook and killed secretly.

    The Wenjun Dazhai was peaceful, and most of the Wenjun soldiers were asleep due to fatigue.  Suddenly, a raging fire broke out behind the stronghold, followed by loud shouts of killing.  Ma Chao and Yang Ang each led an army to kill and rob the stronghold from two directions. De was awakened and hurriedly got on his horse. When he saw before him, his own soldiers were in chaos and fled in all directions.  Cheng Yin's face was ashen, he hurriedly put on his armor and mounted his horse, and rushed to Pang De's side to shout.

    "General Pang is in serious trouble. The Lu army has indeed come to rob the camp!!"

    "Asshole!!! I didn't teach you to lead the army to defend behind the stronghold! Why did you let Zhang Lujun succeed!!!!"

    "I!!!!"

    Pang De was wide-eyed and shouted sternly.  Cheng Yin was immediately stopped by Pang De. At this moment, there was another loud shout of killing in front of the stronghold. Ma Dai and Yang Ren led the troops from the two fronts of the stronghold.Enter the road.  As the troops of Ma Chao and Yang Ang came from behind, they rushed in from all sides. The Wen army was in a panic and could not stop them. They were killed and were slaughtered blindly by Zhang Lu's army.

    ¡°You quickly lead the army to retreat first!!! It¡¯s up to me to break up the rear here!!!!¡±

    Seeing this, Pang De didn't care to scold Cheng Yin any more.  At present, our army is in chaos and unable to resist at all. Staying here will only increase casualties.  If we could evacuate earlier, we could save a lot of losses.  Cheng Yin hurriedly received the order, gathered five to six thousand soldiers and fought all the way.  As for Pound, he led a force of troops to block the rear where the offensive was strongest.

    Pang De hurriedly raised his sword and flew towards Pegasus. He danced the lion's head sword tightly and killed Zhang Lu's soldiers and horses who were attacking in groups.  Nearly a thousand soldiers of the civil army were able to take advantage of the situation and escape. The red face of Germany was so impressive that no one could defeat him, just like the generals in the sky.

    "Pang Lingming, you traitor!!!"

    At this moment, a sudden loud shout came from behind Pound. Pound's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly raised his knife to block it.  There was a loud bang, and the blade of the lion-head machete in Pound's hand was hit by a gun as fast as lightning.  The momentum was so great that it made the lion-headed machete tremble. A strange look appeared in De's eyes. When he looked closely, he saw Ma Chao's face was ferocious, and he was gnashing his teeth, as if he had great hatred for Pang De.

    In order to repay the safety of the Ma family, Pang De had no choice but to surrender to Wen Han. After that, Wen Han treated him as his own son and treated him like a family member, and there was no falsehood in it.  Later, Wenhan heard about the battle between Ma Yi and Pang De in Jincheng that day.  Wenhan personally came forward for Pound to propose marriage to Ma Teng on Pound's behalf.  And Ma Teng, an old fox, had actually noticed Pound's affection for Ma Yi a long time ago, and Pound was now a member of the Ma family. To appease Pang De's heart, Ma Teng naturally agreed.  Afterwards, Wen Han came forward for Pound and rewarded Han Jin with dozens of beauties, so that Han Jin divorced Ma Yi.

    And the power under Han Jin had long been secretly eliminated by Wen Han.  But for Han Jin, a dandy disciple, as long as he can live his fairy-like life in a carefree manner, everything can be abandoned, including the great hatred of the past.  What's more, even if Han Jin has thousands of objections, he has no strength to resist.

    So Pang De finally fulfilled his long-cherished wish and took Ma Yi in an honest and fair manner.  What made him even more delighted was that although Ma Yi and Han Jin were named husband and wife, they were not husband and wife. Pang De was completely loyal to Wen Han and was willing to go through fire and water for Wen Han.

    Of course, after this, Wen Han made amends with Cheng Gongying.  Cheng Gongying's reaction was indifferent. He had long been disheartened by Han Jin. Only Wen Han could make Han Jin rich and prosperous in his life and enjoy his old age.  Cheng Gongying was completely satisfied.

    Although Pang De saw Ma Chao again at this time, although there were ripples in his heart, he knew that he and Ma Chao were enemies. De slashed with his sword, swung away the brocade and silver lion tooth spear, rode his horse to seize the road and left.  Ma Chao yelled and chased after him, insulting De repeatedly and saying nothing in reply, and left in a bloody way.

    Seeing Pang De go away gradually, Ma Chao felt angry and resentful in his heart. He held down his gun, loaded his bow and shot three arrows at Pang De. When De heard the sound of the arrows, he dodged quickly and dodged them all.  At this time, most of the civilian soldiers in the camp had escaped. Those who could not escape were heavily surrounded by Zhang Lu's army and were difficult to save.

    Seeing this, Pang De didn't dare to pester anymore, and quickly escaped along the way.  When Ma Chao saw Pang De fleeing far away, he vented his anger on the civilian soldiers and ordered them to be slaughtered without leaving a single one alive!  Thousands of civilian soldiers were killed by Zhang Lujun and their bodies were everywhere. The scene was very tragic.

    Wen's vanguard was defeated, and Cheng Yin and Pang De led the remaining soldiers to flee back to see Wen Han.  When Wenhan learned that the vanguard army was defeated and nearly 3,000 of the 10,000 soldiers died, he became furious and scolded Generals Pang De and Cheng Yin.

    "You and I have been marching for many years. Don't you know that if the soldiers get tired after traveling a long distance, they must be prepared to rob the stronghold? Why not make preparations?"

    Cheng Yin trembled with fright, fearing that Pang De would accuse him, so he rushed to tell him first.

    "My lord, forgive me! Don't you, the general, not know this truth! The general once warned General Pang to be careful about robbing the camp, but the general did not listen to the general's words and did not make preparations, so he was defeated!"

    Pang De's red face condensed and his eyes widened. This Cheng Yin actually made something out of nothing, slandered others, and also slandered his own faults on his head.

    "You treacherous villain!! I obviously asked you to set up defenses behind the stronghold, but you didn't listen to my order and did it hastily! Now you dare to confuse right and wrong and slander me!!"

    Pang De's angry face was like a red lion's anger. Cheng Yin was frightened and thought that this was the end of the matter. If he didn't bite the bullet to the end, he would be retaliated by Pang De in the future.  Then he quickly thought about the general he saw in Zhang Lujun today. He was overjoyed, his eyes shone, and he said again hurriedly.

    "My Lord, don't listen to this traitor's nonsense! The general who will rob the camp at the end of the day is none other than Ma Mengqi! Pang Lingming originally belonged to Ma Mengqi, and he has always obeyed Ma Mengqi's words, so he must have had an affair with him for a long time!"

    &nbsp; "You!!! If Cheng Yin dares to say any nonsense again, I will definitely kill you!!!! Lord!! I, Pang Lingming, am completely loyal and have no disloyal intentions. If the Lord does not believe it, Pang is willing to lead the army to fight in the future and take that  Ma Meng raised his head to prove my heart!"

    Pang De's eyes were filled with fire. Although he did not want to be an enemy of Ma Chao, as a minister, he should put the king's benefit first in everything. He was willing to kill relatives just to prove his heart.

    Wenhan squinted his eyes and moved slowly in front of Pang De and Cheng Yin.  Cheng Yin had a ghost in his heart, so naturally he didn't dare to look directly at De, but he was calm in his heart and did not avoid it.  Suddenly Wenhan's expression changed and he shouted loudly.

    "Left and right! Why don't you push this treacherous person out and behead him!"

    Wenhan pointed a finger at Cheng Yin and suddenly ordered a soldier to grab Cheng Yin's arms after hearing the sound.  Cheng Yin was so frightened that he burst into tears on the spot. With a mournful face, he kowtowed and knelt down and cried out that he was wronged.
