    But he said that Liu Bei sent Sun Qian to negotiate terms with Ma Chao. His attitude was very clear. It was okay for me, Liu Bei, to send troops to attack Cao Cao. This rogue general was also acceptable, but Ma Chao was required to support 200,000 dendrobiums of grain and grass and 100,000 jins of fine iron. The extension was postponed to more than half a month.  Make preparations.  This condition is quite reasonable. Ma Chaolue thought for a while and agreed. Of course, he knew that Liu Bei would not truly surrender to him, but it was a troubled time and it was not appropriate to start a war on multiple fronts.  Sun Qian was overjoyed when he saw Ma Chao agreeing so happily. He clasped his fists and said, "Yanzhou is a plain land, which is most suitable for cavalry to fight. The general controls the northern land and has countless good horses in his hands. By the order of my lord, I hope you can  The general can support tens of thousands of good horses to defeat Cao's thieves together!" Ma Chao was secretly angry, but said calmly: "Ten thousand good horses is not a small number. As far as I know, Liu Bei has no more than miscellaneous soldiers.  50,000 people, not even an inch of land, how can they afford so many cavalry? I control the land of the four northern states, and the cavalry is less than 50,000. You have thousands of good horses, so you have too much appetite." Sun  Qian Dao: "No! The Cao thief has gathered hundreds of thousands of yellow turban thieves, and his military strength is far superior to that of my lord. If he no longer has the advantage of cavalry, wouldn't it be like using an egg to attack a stone? Now that my lord has surrendered to the imperial court, he is a minister of the Han Dynasty, and the general commands the world's soldiers.  Horses, how can you favor one over the other? Supporting my lord with ten thousand good horses is no different from strengthening his own military!" Ma Chao secretly sneered, this big-eared thief really took me for granted, let's see what else he wants?  At that moment, he said calmly: "Ten thousand good horses are not difficult for me, since Liu Bei sincerely surrenders. So why not give him ten thousand war horses?" Sun Qian was overjoyed, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, General, for your care! My lord is here."  Don¡¯t doubt that I will serve the general wholeheartedly. However, as far as I know, the soldiers under the general¡¯s command are all paid, and are well-equipped and well-trained. My lord does not ask for military support, but the soldiers should fight with  My own life is at stake, and I hope the general will support him with a batch of ordnance!" Ma Chao smiled and said, "But I don't know how many ordnance Liu Bei plans to support him?" Sun Qian said: "Just five?  It¡¯s just a set of chainmail armor and a black iron helmet. As for the weapons, my lord will prepare them himself!¡± Ma Chao looked a little impatient and said in a deep voice, ¡°If you ask for anything else, I will try my best to satisfy you.  !" When Sun Qian saw Ma Chao's unkind look, he didn't dare to speak loudly.  He also knows when enough is enough.  In case Ma Chao is angered.  Nothing good is gained.  After hesitating for a while, he cupped his fists and said: "Back then, the general used the Xiangyang cannon to attack Hulao Pass, which shocked the world! My lord has been famous for a long time. Now that he has joined the general, I hope the general can give the blueprint to my lord. Attack Cao Cao.  Thieves must attack the city. If we have the help of Xiangyang artillery, we will get twice the result with half the effort!" Ma Chao smiled slightly and pretended to be generous: "It is not easy to make Xiangyang artillery. Even if the general provides the blueprint, it will not be possible to mass-produce it overnight. The military situation is urgent!  Since Liu Bei has devoted himself to my service, I will never treat him poorly. How about immediately sending a hundred large Xiangyang artillery pieces to Xiaopei? The war horses and ordnance can also be in place within ten days! I just hope Liu Bei will not break his promise and send troops to Yanzhou as soon as possible!  "With the help of the general, my lord will definitely make great contributions to the court!" Ma Chao nodded, turned to his master Bo Zhugejin and said: "Tzuyu can make a list of what I have promised, the treasury is not enough."  , can be temporarily mobilized from the army, and will be personally escorted to Xiaopei by General Wenpin in ten days and handed over to Liu Bei!" Zhuge Jin nodded and said: "Jin has already recorded it, please see it, my lord!" After that, he handed over a list.  Ma Chao didn't even look at it, he handed it directly to Sun Qian and said, "Here is the list. In ten days, I will send someone to deliver all the supplies to Xiaopei!"  At the same time, I also regretted saying too little. Judging from Ma Chao's attitude, he might have agreed if he had said twice as much.  After exchanging pleasantries, they picked up the list and hurried back to Xiaopei to return their orders to Liu Bei.  As soon as Sun Qian left, Ma Chao's subordinates such as Huang Zhong, Xu Huang, Wenpin, Zhang He and others became angry.  Huang Zhong cupped his fists and said, "Why does my lord need to accommodate Liu Bei like this? Liu Bei is just a mat weaver and shoe seller, so what's the point of having only 50,000 soldiers and horses? If he dares not to give up Xiaopei, he can just send troops to destroy him! It has nothing to do with the overall situation.  !" Zhang He had been in Bohai for a long time and was familiar with Liu Bei. He frowned and said, "Although Liu Bei has 50,000 troops, they are all a mob. He hopes that my lord will regain his fame. He is willing to lead 30,000 elite troops to defeat him in one fell swoop!"  He shook his head and said: "You don't know something! Liu Bei is very good at winning people's hearts. The two sworn brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are both unstoppable! When they were in Beihai, Liu Bei also temporarily pulled Donglai Taishi Ci.  Entering your own camp must not be underestimated! However, this general has other intentions, as long as this is the case" Everyone heard this.Not too happy, everyone was gearing up and excited.  Ten days later, on the day of Liu Bei's wedding, Ma Chao arrived in person with 20,000 elite soldiers and 10,000 cavalry, escorting 500 carts and baggage and rushed outside Xiaopei City.  At the same time, Huang Zhong and Xu Huang were sent to lead 20,000 troops from Pengcheng to ambush near Jiuli Mountain.  Liu Bei originally wanted to go out of the city to greet him, but he didn't know that Ma Chao had no intention of entering the city to deliver supplies. As soon as he arrived outside the city, he ordered his sergeants to assemble the Xiangyang cannon. There was no food and grass in the hundreds of carts. Except for the parts of the Xiangyang cannon, they were all  Some clay balls the size of human heads.  When Liu Bei saw this, he immediately panicked and ordered Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Tai Shici and others to lead troops to defend against the enemy. He himself climbed to the top of the city and shouted: "The bandit general Liu Bei is here. I hope the general will come out to answer the question."  " Ma Chao took a few steps forward and shouted: "Liu Bei! Since you call yourself a bandit general, why don't you respect the emperor's order to send troops to Yanzhou? How could I know that you are delaying the military situation because of your lust?  Now that the general has come to ask for help, what else can he say?" Liu Bei frowned and said, "We have agreed with the general to send troops in half a month, why should we delay the military situation?" Ma Chao sneered.  Said: "When will I agree to meet this month? It's just wishful thinking! Now that I have led my troops to fight, the matter will definitely not go well!" Now that things have happened, Ma Chao doesn't want to spoil Liu Bei anymore, so he stays.  He will be a nuisance sooner or later, it is better to annihilate Yuan Shao's army before it arrives.  Liu Bei's face was pale. Seeing that the Xiangyang cannons with a height of five people were about to be set up, he felt very anxious.  Sun Qian was also confused. No wonder he gave him whatever he wanted when negotiating with Ma Chao that day. He just wanted to stabilize Liu Bei, and then take him by surprise and attack him unprepared, with extremely sinister intentions.  Guan Yu looked at Ma Chao riding majestically on the Hu Lei Barge from afar, and suddenly remembered the humiliation of the hero that day. He clasped his fists and said: "Brother, Ma Chao, the little thief, really didn't have good intentions. Why don't you let me lead the army out of the city to fight, otherwise once the thief's trebuchet is ready,  It¡¯s over, it¡¯s even more difficult to resist!¡± Zhang Fei said: ¡°That¡¯s right, even if we withdraw from Xiaopei, we will never make things easier for Ma Chao!¡± Liu Bei stared at the Xiangyang Cannon for a while, feeling really unsure, but Ma Chao had used this thing for a while.  How could Xiaopei City be compared with Hulao Pass if Hulao Pass was breached in just one hour?  He thought for a while and said: "In this case, the second and third brothers must be careful. If they can burn the Xiangyang cannon, they will not be afraid of Ma Chao's attack on the city. I will plunder the formation for you and others at the top of the city!" "Promise!" After receiving the order,  The two of them were overjoyed and rushed down to the top of the city. They ordered 20,000 soldiers and horses to fight out of Xiaopei City.  Ma Chao led the five generals Dian Wei, Gao Shun, Wenpin, Chen Dao and Cao Xing who had been waiting in formation for a long time. The 10,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry were all brightly armored, drums were beating loudly, and horns were blasting.  Guan and Zhang led their troops out of the city. Most of the 20,000 troops were wearing leather armor. There were only a few hundred cavalry. The weapons were mainly spears, including bamboo bows, scimitars, wooden clubs and other weapons.  In terms of equipment, the two armies are not on the same level at all.  When the sergeants of Ma Chao's army saw the equipment of Liu Bei's miscellaneous army, their morale increased greatly. The shouts of killing shook the sky and the earth. They wished they could rush forward and earn a few heads.  When Guan and Zhang saw this formation, they were envious and jealous. Zhang Fei whispered: "Second brother, please plunder the formation for me. If you can kill Ma Chao with the formation, it will undoubtedly be a great achievement!" Guan Yu nodded and looked at it coldly.  Ma Chao, who was wearing a golden helmet under his banner, warned: "Today's Ma Chao is definitely not comparable to that of the past, and the third brother must be extremely careful!" "I know!" Zhang Fei was high in fighting spirit. He patted his horse and came to the front of the two armies.  He shouted: "Ma Chao, you little thief, Zhang Yide from Yan is here, how dare you fight me to the death!" The sound was like thunder, and tens of thousands of people in both armies could hear it clearly.  Ma Chao laughed loudly and said: "You have defeated a general under your command, how dare you speak out?" After saying that, he turned around and said: "Lao Dian is willing to fight this man. If you can defeat him, I will give you ten years of military rank! A reward of one hundred, and the capital will be granted to you."  Tinghou!" As soon as these words came out, Gao Shun, Chen Dao, Cao Xing and others were all envious and couldn't help but want to try.  Dian Wei's face was solemn, but also slightly excited. He cupped his fists and said, "But please, my lord, raid the formation. Dian Wei will come as soon as he goes!" After saying that, he picked up two large iron halberds, clapped his horse and rushed towards the front of the two armies' formation.  Zhang Fei was inevitably disappointed when he saw that Ma Chao did not fight. He had been beaten to death by Ma Chao with a meteor hammer in the Heroes Arena. He had always been deeply ashamed and humiliated. He had been practicing martial arts hard for several years, hoping to one day win the battle.  He didn't know Dian Wei, and he didn't take Dian Wei seriously at the moment. He shouted: "Come and give me a name, I will not kill the nameless ghost under my spear!" Dian Wei knocked the big iron halberd and said with a loud sound: "You are the one.  Zhang Fei? I am Dian Wei, a native of Chenliu. I am here to take your head in exchange for military merit. If you know what I am doing, please give it to me, lest your grandpa Dian do it himself!  ! Where did this madman come from?" Zhang Fei was immediately furious, and he rushed over with his spear, nearly four meters long, and hit Dian Wei's throat.  "Well done!" Dian WeiIf he dared to look down upon him, he roared loudly and raised his halberds, causing Zhang Fei's spear to return in vain.  The two horses passed each other, and Dian Wei swung a halberd with his right hand and slashed Zhang Fei's neck with lightning speed.  Zhang Fei's spear was not conducive to close combat, so he quickly ducked to avoid it.  (To be continued)
