Chapter 320 Letters
"Open the door quickly, I am Ma Chao!" Ma Chao led the crowd to the outside of Tongguan without stopping, shouting to open the door, hoping that the news of Han Sui's rebellion had not yet reached here. people.

"Fire arrows!"

Suddenly there was a cry from the gate, and then countless feathered arrows shot at Ma Chao and others.

Ma Chao waved his spear left and right, and after blocking a wave of feathered arrows, he led the people away quickly. He knew that the road to Tongguan was impassable, and he must not stay here.

Not long after Ma Chao left, Lu Bu led his men to arrive. Seeing that Ma Chao hadn't entered Tongguan, he breathed a sigh of relief and led his men to continue chasing and killing him.

Then Yu Jin led an army of [-] to arrive, and Han Sui's envoy took Han Sui's letter and gave Tongguan to Yu Jin for garrison.

At noon on the second day, Han Sui led his army through Tongguan and went straight down to Fufeng. Unfortunately, Han Sui's soldiers and horses were all in vain, and Ma Chao's family members were nowhere to be found.

"General, what should I do now?" Seeing Ma Chaoma running around aimlessly, Pang De felt that this was not the way to go, so he asked.

"Hey." Ma Chao sighed, his handsome face was exhausted, blood was all over his body, and the people behind him were listless and had no fighting spirit.

"The old thief Han Sui has already led his troops to Liangzhou. He will go to Fufeng first. My family is in danger." Ma Chao was extremely worried. Has fallen into the hands of Han Sui.

"Old thief Han Sui, I will take his dog's head. If he messes with our family, I will destroy his nine clans." Ma Tie's face was ashen, and his heart was full of anger.

"I am going to enter Wei County from here, and then from Wei County to Hanzhong. It is said that Zhang Lu in Hanzhong is at odds with Liu Zhang, the emperor of Shu Han, and Cao thief is the prime minister of Shu Han. I am going to join Zhang Lu and find an opportunity to avenge my father." Ma Chao thought for a while, He feels that the only way out now is to go to Hanzhong. He is now in the west of Jingzhao County, Sili Prefecture, and Wei County is further ahead.

"Major General, Wei Jun is now in Cao Cao's hands, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to pass through." Pang De said with a frown.

"I have no other way to find out. Now I don't have soldiers and horses in my hands. If I go back to Liangzhou by detouring Wei County, I will only fall into the hands of the old thief Han Sui. Now I have to go to Hanzhong to have a chance of survival." After Ma Chao finished speaking, he waved With a spear in his hand, he was about to speed up towards Wei County.

"Who is it?" Pang De, behind Ma Chao, suddenly raised the big knife in his hand, and stared coldly at the roadside woods.

After hearing Pound's words, the others immediately became alert.

"Everyone, don't panic." A rough voice came from the woods, and then a middle-aged man walked out alone, and stopped ten meters away from Ma Chao and others.

"Are you General Ma Chao and others?" The middle-aged man clasped his fists and asked Ma Chao and others.

After hearing the middle-aged man's question, Ma Tie and others were about to attack, Ma Chao raised his hand to stop them, and then said: "I am Ma Chao, who are you?"

"Greetings to General Ma, I am the sixteenth minister of the emperor, and I am ordered to wait for General Ma here." After hearing Ma Chao's acknowledgment, the middle-aged man immediately clasped his fists in salute, and indicated his identity and purpose of coming.

"Liu Bei!" After Ma Chao heard this, his heart moved, and a figure appeared in his mind. Liu Zhang proclaimed himself emperor and established the Shu Han. After Liu Bei proclaimed himself emperor, he directly regarded himself as a great man, so Liu Bei is now the emperor of the great man.

"Who sent you to wait for me here? Why did you know I would come here?" Ma Chao frowned, and began to doubt the middle-aged man's words. Liu Bei was thousands of miles away, and he had just been defeated, so how could he send someone here to wait? he.

"I came here on the order of my prime minister, and the prime minister once said that if the general doesn't believe it, you can show this thing to the general." The sixteenth dark guard said, taking out a piece of ancient khaki-yellow jade, and holding it with both hands. , let Ma Chao watch.

"Major General, this is one of the gifts I gave to Mr. Ziming when he got married." Pang De immediately gave up the ancient jade, and Chen Ziming's figure naturally appeared in his head, the cold iron sword in his hand, Also, the heavy black iron armor on his body was given by Chen Ziming, and Ma Chao's suitcase was also given by Chen Ziming. Of course, Pang De has a deep memory of Chen Ziming, and he has a good impression of him.

"Why does Mr. Ziming know that I will pass by here, and when will he send you here to wait?" Ma Chao had already begun to believe in the identity of the secret guard Sixteen, and Chen Ziming's things could not be leaked out casually.

"I only received the order half a month ago. The prime minister calculated that the general will be defeated within a month and will enter Wei County from this area. He ordered me to wait for the general and send a letter." Dark Guard Sixteen After speaking, he took out a letter from his pocket.

Ma Dai immediately stepped forward and handed the letter to Ma Chao. Ma Chao glanced at the yellow cover, took a deep breath, opened the envelope, and took out two pieces of rice paper.

When he saw the contents of the first letter, his expression froze, and then he read it carefully, and handed it to Pang De and others to read, and he read the second letter.

"This..." After reading it, Ma Chao and the others were stunned, because the contents of the letter were so horrifying.

The first letter was written by Liu Bei himself. Liu Bei said that the reason why he did not send troops to help Ma Chao in time was because the Huns in the north invaded and Sun Ce's soldiers and horses were in the way in the south, making it difficult to increase troops to Hedong.

The second is that Ma Chao will be betrayed by others and be defeated, but Liu Bei has no evidence, because all this is Chen Ziming's guess, so he can't be a villain in vain, so as not to alienate the relationship between Ma Chao and the leaders of various ministries.

The third is to sincerely ask Ma Chao to go to Linzi and work together. In the future, he will definitely kill Cao Cao and avenge General Ma Teng.

The other letter was written by Chen Ziming himself. It only said three points. First, he has sent someone to pick up the family members of the Ma family in Fufeng safely. There is no danger. After Ma Chao settles down here, he can send someone to pick them up. Go back to reunite.

The second is that if Ma Chao votes for Zhang Lu, there is absolutely no chance of revenge, because Zhang Lu is too weak and incompetent.

The third is that if Ma Chao is willing to vote for Liu Bei, he should write a letter of recommendation to Dark Guard Sixteen and ask Dark Guard Sixteen to get it back. Then Ma Chao will continue to vote for Zhang Lu, gain Zhang Lu’s trust as soon as possible, grasp the military power, and wait for him next step instructions.

The hearts of Ma Chao and the others are now turbulent, and that Chen Ziming, a month ago, had figured out that Han Sui and the others would join Cao Cao and kill him in turn.It is also considered that Ma Chao will be desperate and will definitely join Zhang Lu, so he even sent someone here in advance to wait for him.

More importantly, Chen Ziming actually wanted him to pretend to serve Zhang Lu and gain military power, the purpose was self-evident.

What else could Ma Chao do if he didn't listen to Chen Ziming's arrangement now, not to mention that he saved his family and avenged him for killing his father, and he knew exactly what he was thinking.
