    When Jia Xu and others left, Cao Cao left Cao Pi alone.  Cao Cao was pacing back and forth in the hall, while Cao Pi stood still with a calm expression.  But only he understood it, and he was extremely nervous inside.

    Although Cao Cao was his father, he could clearly feel the murderous aura released from his father, making it difficult for him to breathe.

    "Zihuan, kneel down!" Cao Cao's tone was not harsh, but cold enough.

    Cao Pi knelt down.

    "There are no outsiders here now, and I will not pursue this matter after I become a father, let alone deprive you of your position as son. Tell me, did you do this?"

    "Reporting to my father, I still said the same thing, and I have never done this!" Cao Pi's tone seemed very firm.

    "Do you still want to lie to me?" Cao Cao suddenly became extremely angry. He pointed at Cao Pi's forehead with a trembling hand, "No one knows a son better than his father. I know your character very clearly. You are definitely responsible for this!  "

    "Report to my father, this child has never happened to me!" Cao Pi repeated it again.

    "Zihuan, you can't lie to me about this, I will figure it out naturally. If you admit it now, you will pretend that nothing happened as a father. But if I find out in the future, your position as the heir apparent will be gone.  , you should think clearly!¡±

    "Report to my father, I have never done this!" Cao Pi spoke for the third time, still saying the same thing.

    Cao Cao looked at Cao Pi, seemed to let out a sigh of relief, and then waved his hand, "Stay back!"

    "No!" Cao Pi stood up and saluted Cao Cao, then turned and left.

    Looking at Cao Pi's back, Cao Cao showed a happy smile on his face.

    "Zihuan, you have finally grown up!" He nodded silently, "As a superior, you can make mistakes, but you must not admit them easily!"

    When Cao Pi left Prince Wei's Mansion, the cool spring breeze blew by, and he shivered involuntarily, and then he realized that the clothes on his back were all wet.

    "Zhongda is really a great talent!" Cao Pi couldn't help but sigh. Sima Yi had repeatedly told him all this. He didn't quite understand it at first, but now he finally understood, "My father has Guo Jia, and he has achieved great success.  And with Sima Yi, I will definitely be able to maintain the Cao family¡¯s hegemony!¡±

    About a hundred miles away from Yumenguan, there is a small county town. The city wall looks dilapidated. If it were not for the businessmen who come and go often rest here, I am afraid it would have been in ruins long ago.

    Ma Chao and his more than a thousand soldiers and horses were stationed here.

    Since several bandits around him were eliminated, he didn¡¯t have to worry about his food and grass for the time being. The local people were particularly grateful to Ma Chao and continued to honor him as General Shenwu. This suddenly gave Ma Chao a sense of the pride of the past.

    But not long after, Xianbei, Xiqiang and several small countries in the Western Regions united and gathered 100,000 cavalry outside Yumen Pass to peek at the big man. This made Ma Chao nervous again and faced a new choice.

    Among his thousand soldiers and horses, there are indeed some veterans who have fought many battles, and many others were once fierce bandits. They are not weak in combat power, but they are simply vulnerable to a hundred thousand foreign cavalry. What choice should be made?  Woolen cloth?

    At this time, Ma Dai came to Ma Chao's military camp.

    Although there had been estrangement in the past, they were brothers connected by blood after all. Ma Chao was very happy and hosted a banquet in honor of Ma Dai.

    After the banquet ended, the two of them knelt down opposite each other in the military camp, and the guards next to them also went out.

    "Brother, listen to my advice and surrender to the King of Han! This is the most correct choice. The King of Han is the hero of the world and a clan member of the Han Dynasty. Brother, surrendering will never disgrace the reputation of our Ma family, nor will it  Insult the reputation of General Fubo!" Ma Dai's voice sounded extremely sincere.

    "Bo Zhan, you can indeed make great achievements by surrendering to the King of Han, but my path is not like that!" Ma Chao's tone was firm.

    "Your road, do you still have a road?" Ma Dai shook his head, "Brother, wake up. There are only three families left in the world. If you fight, you will die without a burial place!"

    "But there is an opportunity right in front of you!"

    "Opportunity?" Ma Dai suddenly stood up, "Brother, if you want to dominate the world, that is your choice. But if you want to join the foreigners, collude with the Xianbei and Xiongnu, and endanger my great man, I, Ma Dai, will never agree, uncle.  Even the ancestors of our Ma family will not agree to this!"

    "Bo Zhan, you misunderstood!" Ma Chao waved his hand, "Our Ma family has been stationed in Xiliang for generations to defend against foreign invasion. How can I, Ma Chao, associate with them?"

    "What do you mean, brother?"

    ?"Bo Zhan, the foreigners have gathered a hundred thousand cavalry this time. No matter how brave the Han army is, even if they are not defeated in this battle, their vitality will be greatly damaged. Isn't this an opportunity? By then we can clean up the mess and reoccupy Xiliang  !¡±

    "Us?" After listening to Ma Chao's words, Ma Dai showed a contemptuous smile, "Do you think I will betray my lord?"

    "Are you going to betray our Ma family?"

    "We, the Ma family, have been Han ministers for generations, so we are not rebellious!"

    "you¡­¡­"

    "Brother, I don't believe our Han army will be defeated!"

    "Bo Zhan, don't deceive yourself. You only have 50,000 troops. Adding in the 5,000 cavalry brought by Zhuge Liang and the original defenders of Xiliang, the number is only 60,000 to 70,000, and most of them are infantry. How can it be 100,000?"  The cavalry¡¯s opponent?¡±

    "Brother, you know me. I am not a person who talks nonsense. Our Han army will win this battle!" Ma Dai's tone was full of confidence.

    Ma Chao looked at Ma Dai in confusion. This kind of strong self-confidence made him very puzzled. He did know Ma Dai very well. He was by no means a reckless person who talked nonsense. Where did he get his confidence?

    "Brother, how can the foreign cavalry stop our Han army's various sharp weapons!"

    "Sharp weapon?" Hearing these two words, Ma Chao suddenly remembered the terrifying scene outside Chengdu.

    There was a loud noise, the mountains collapsed and the ground cracked, deafening. His horse was killed on the spot seven or eight steps away, and hundreds of soldiers and horses around him were killed and injured in an instant.

    The invincible thunder was so terrifying. He had encountered it before when he was attacking the city of Yinping. He hadn't paid much attention to it because it was far away, but that time, it was right next to him!

    "You mean the invincible thunder!"

    "Yes, it's the Invincible Sky Thunder!" Seeing Ma Chao's shocked expression, Ma Dai showed a cold smile, "But our Han Dynasty's Ministry of Industry has now developed a weapon that is more powerful than the Invincible Sky Thunder.  To deal with foreign cavalry."

    "Is there something more powerful?" Ma Chao was a little shocked, "What is that?"

    "This is my big man's military secret, I won't tell you!" Ma Dai shook his head, "If you surrender, you will naturally see it!"

    "Bo Zhan, let me think about it!"

    "Okay!" Ma Dai nodded, "The situation is in crisis. Don't wait for anyone. Big brother must make a decision early."

    Three days later, Ma Chao led more than a thousand soldiers, replaced them with the dragon flag of the Han Dynasty, and withdrew to Jincheng together with Ma Dai.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
