Yang Qiu returned to the coalition camp and imitated Cao Cao's words vividly.
"Go back and tell Ma Chao that I'm waiting for him here."
Ma Chao was furious and led his troops to fight.
"The thief Cao comes out!"
"Are you being shy?"
How could Cao Cao come out to listen to these dirty words? Li Tong blocked them all.
"Haha, the prime minister asked you to come, so you came. You are really obedient. I didn't expect that Ma Mengqi, who is so powerful in Xiliang, is actually a dog!"
Unexpectedly, Ma Chao¡¯s laughter was even louder and deafening.
"You listen to him every day, aren't you a piece of shit?"
Li Tong¡¯s face turned red.
"If my defeated general has the ability to go out and fight, what kind of ability does he have to hide in the camp?"
Ma Chao rode his horse back and forth in front of the camp gate, looking proud.
"Marquis Huaili died unjustly. If you hadn't rebelled, the Prime Minister would not have killed him!" Li Tong shouted.
Ma Chao looked sad, and he blamed himself very much for his father's death. I thought that with the military power in hand, Cao Cao did not dare to take action.
I didn¡¯t expect him to be so decisive!
Li Tong caught Ma Chao¡¯s sore spot.
"You little thief, come out and fight me if you can!"
"I won't go out, what can you do to me?"
"Are you worried that the dog's life will be lost here?"
Li Tong was furious, but he remembered Cao Cao's advice not to fight, so he had to endure and endure.
Ma Chao returned without success, and the scolding war continued the next day.
"It's you again, you're a coward, let's get scolded by someone else."
Ma Chao¡¯s disdain deeply hurt Li Tong.
Li Tong was from a powerful family, and no one had ever dared to speak to him like this before, so he couldn't help but be furious.
"Open the camp, I want to go out and meet Ma Chao for a while!"
General, you are no match for him!
The guard just wanted to persuade him, but unfortunately Li Tong was now thinking about revenge.
Bang Dang!
The gate of the camp opened, and Li Tong rode out.
"You little thief, today is the day you die!"
Ma Chao suppressed Li Tong in three or five rounds and stabbed him in the shoulder.
The pain made Li Tong sober, and he turned his horse and fled.
"Secure the city gate first and fight another day."
Ma Chao wanted to pursue him, but was targeted by countless bows and arrows, and returned in vain.
Xia Houyuan learned the news and rushed over. Fortunately, no major problems occurred.
"Li Tong, why don't you listen to military orders?"
"Ma Mengqi is too arrogant and insults the prime minister. I can't stand it." Li Tongtong.
"The military order is like a mountain. Now that you have violated the military order, I will lock you up for three days. Can you obey?" Xia Houyuan said.
"I am willing to accept the punishment." Li Tongtong needs to recover from his injuries anyway.
It really hurts!
"General Xiahou, you see that the enemy's formation is in disarray, which is the best opportunity to attack. As long as you work hard, you will definitely be able to defeat Ma Chao." Li Channel.
Xia Houyuan looked at it and found that it was indeed the case, but he had just punished Li Tong. If he sent troops at this time, wouldn't he be slapping himself in the face?
"Ma Chao has taken advantage now, and the morale of the Xiliang rebels is high. It will be disadvantageous for us to attack now. Therefore, we should adhere to the Prime Minister's military orders, close the city gates tightly, and dampen Ma Chao's spirit."
The order was reasonable and reasonable, but Li Tong¡¯s face didn¡¯t look very good. Doesn't this emphasize that he lost to Ma Chao?
In Cao Cao's army, Xia Houyuan is the real direct descendant, while Li Tong is the local hegemon and has conflicts with the central government.
Damn it!
Li Tong could only sigh. He missed this opportunity and wondered if he could still teach Ma Chao a lesson.
Cao Cao did not go out to fight, but Ma Chao came every day, set up a large formation, and then sent people to the Weinan camp to yell at him.
No matter how much Ma Chao's people scolded him, Cao Cao refused to leave the city, which made Ma Chao depressed as he tried to lure the snake out of its cave.
But he didn¡¯t have any good ideas. Now he went to storm the camp, which would be detrimental to the Xiliang army, which was good at field combat. Therefore, Ma Chao could only come and scold him every day, hoping to stimulate Cao Cao to come out.
Cao Cao was in a high position and his biggest characteristic was his thick skin. No matter how Ma Chao sent people to greet him outside the camp, he didn't care at all.
On the contrary, his men were so angry that they couldn't help but want to go out, but Cao Cao stopped them.
"A small leak will sink a great ship."
Now Cao Cao has made his attitude clear and wants to fight?
"Haha, if you have the ability, come and attack the camp.
Want to reconcile?
Absolutely impossible.
"Cao Cao is the nail stuck in Hexi.
It was like this for seven days in a row.
Ma Chao was screaming with anger outside.
"Ma Mengqi can't hold back his anger!" Cao Cao said happily.
"My lord, this is also Xiliang's plan to delay the attack." Xia Houyuan said.
This sentence reminded Cao Cao, and he almost forgot it!
"Tell me, what backup plan can Xiliang have?" Cao Cao said.
Yu Jin thought for a while and said, "Lord, I have the worst guess."
"Um?"
"My lord, have you forgotten Yangzhou? How could it be possible for the Marquis of Dongyang not to intervene in such a war!" Yu Jin said.
Cao Cao was shocked and took out the map.
He mobilized all his troops to the west. As for the east it was almost undefended.
Because to the east is Yangzhou, Liu Ke¡¯s territory.
Once Yangzhou launched an attack, Cao Cao found that he had no way to resist.
This situation was so bad that Cao Cao even glared at Yu Jin because of it.
Yu Jin is very innocent, but his worries are also everyone's worries.
The Marquis of Dongyang has taken the world by storm, and now he is standing still just to recuperate.
"Marquis of Dongyang! Marquis of Dongyang!" Cao Cao muttered a few sentences.
"My lord, I don't think the Marquis of Dongyang will send troops," Cao Hong said.
"Zilian, tell me." Cao Cao said.
"First, Dongyang Hou is ambitious, but does not have the courage to burn the boat. The current situation in Yangzhou is not suitable for launching a war.
Secondly, the mobilization of the Yangzhou army is no small matter, and it is impossible not to have the slightest rumor.
Third, the Marquis of Dongyang was not yet ready to proclaim himself king and emperor, and it was still orthodox to offer himself as emperor. "Cao Hong said.
"Yes, for this battle, let's pretend that Dongyang Marquis does not exist." Cao Cao said with finality.
There was no other way, Cao Cao was also helpless. If he looked forward and backward, he would not even be able to pass Ma Chao.
"The Marquis of Dongyang will not send troops, but he may give Liangzhou some support." Cao Hong added.
"It makes sense." Cao Cao nodded, and at the same time he was very sad that there were no counselors around him.
Didn¡¯t Cao Cao want to take his advisers to the expedition?
No.
Sima Yi is responsible for more important plans and there is no need to delay. After all, Yangzhou is the enemy.
Xun Yu was still the same as before, guarding the rear and coordinating the affairs of grain, grass and armaments.
As for Sima Lang, Yang Xiu and others, they are not as good as Cao Cao himself, so don¡¯t mention them.
Xu You hopes to go out with the army, but the injury from being beaten by Zhou Buji has not healed yet.
Cao Cao suddenly thought of the Guigu Hermit. This person was definitely not simple. He was very familiar with Xiliang. If he could get his help, it would be easy to pacify Xiliang.
" Unfortunately, this person's whereabouts were erratic. Cao Cao arranged for manpower to follow him many times, but he failed to catch the person who sent the message.
"Prime Minister, a new letter has arrived!"
A scout hurriedly reported.
Cao Cao glanced at the scout, who lowered his head but was not caught.
That¡¯s all!
Cao Cao turned his attention to the letter, and this time he only wrote two words:
