Chapter 1887 Zhuge Liang tricks Ma Han
Chapter 1887 Zhuge Liang plots against Ma Han
At the beginning of the spring of the next year, Cao Cao ordered his eldest son Cao Ang to lead an army of 300,000 to conquer Xiliang. Ma Teng had already been ordered to lead his family to Xudu years ago. Now he is trapped in Cao Cao's mansion, but he is not injured.
their lives.
Cao Ang followed Zhuge Liang's suggestion and sent a letter to Han Sui in Xiliang. The letter read: "If Ma Chao and Ma Dai are captured and taken to Xudu, I will make you the Marquis of Xiliang."
Han Sui showed this letter to Ma Chao. Ma Chao was shocked and paid homage to Han Sui.
"I also asked my uncle to capture my two brothers and take them to Xudu. My uncle in front of me suffered a military attack!"
Han Sui was cunning and cunning, so he naturally did not want to fall out with Ma Chao. He just wanted to show his sincerity and join forces to fight against Cao Cao's army.
Han Sui helped Ma Chao up and said sincerely.
"Your father and I are sworn brothers, how could you do this? If my nephew is willing to raise an army, I can help him!"
Ma Chao then felt relieved, and the two ordered their troops and horses, totaling 200,000, to kill towards Chang'an.
The vast army of Xiliang came from all over the mountains and fields and surrounded Chang'an City. Zhong Yao, the governor of Chang'an County, defended while asking for help. Fortunately, Chang'an was the capital of the Western Han Dynasty, and the city walls were strong. The trenches were deep and dangerous, and they could not be attacked in an urgent manner.
The siege lasted for ten days and could not be broken.
At this time, Cao Ang's army had arrived and entered the city. Zhong Yao, the governor of Chang'an County, breathed a sigh of relief and quickly reported the details to Cao Ang.
After listening to the report, Cao Ang had a clear understanding of the situation of Ma Chao's army. He kept thinking about strategies to defeat the enemy. He looked at the civil and military ministers below and asked.
"Do you have any countermeasures to defeat the enemy?"
Lu Bu looked lazy. He was now a man who knew his destiny. He was no longer as sharp as before, but his power was even more powerful. Just sitting there, all the generals did not dare to be presumptuous. Even veteran generals like Cao Hong had to be in awe.
.just looked at Lu Bu, waiting for him to speak first.
Lu Bu glanced at everyone, then withdrew his gaze, straightened his back, his momentum gradually rose, and his sharp edge was revealed, like a magic sword, thrust straight into the sky, making people awe-inspiring, and he slowly spoke.
"Ma Chao and Han Sui are nothing but local chickens and tile dogs. Please rest assured, sir. Tomorrow I am willing to be the vanguard and lead the army to charge into the formation and capture Ma Chao!"
Lu Bu also gave Cao Ang enough face, took the initiative to invite him, and respected Cao Ang as the son. Obviously, he wanted to set rules for everyone and make Cao Hong and other veteran generals feel shuddered and not dare to despise Cao Ang.
Cao Ang raised his hand and waved it gently, glanced at the generals who were all arrogant, and then smiled.
"General Lu, please be patient. This matter needs long-term consideration!"
Lu Bu stopped talking. He was just doing it for acting, not really to be a pioneer, but to show Cao Ang his prestige.
Cao Ang was secretly happy, as his father-in-law was really powerful. As soon as he opened his mouth, the veteran generals of the Cao clan did not dare to rely on their old age. The other generals were even more silent and did not dare to act rashly. Obviously, Lu Bu's reputation as the best military general in the world was still Zhen.
As someone who can handle the situation, no wonder Mr. Wei asked him to marry Ms. Lu.
Cao Ang saw that the general had been subdued, so he looked at Zhuge Liang and asked for advice.
"Kong Ming, do you have any strategies to defeat the enemy?"
Zhuge Liang stood up after hearing this, the feather fan in his hand swayed slightly, the clouds were light and the wind was gentle, the pearl of wisdom was in his hand, and he laughed loudly.
"Sir, this is easy. You once wrote a letter to Han Sui and ordered him to capture Ma Chao. Now you can write another letter, but you need to make more corrections. The content is unclear. You will deliberately hand it to Han Sui in front of the battle tomorrow. How dare you?
I am sure that there will be a rift between the two of them, and something will happen after a few days."
Cao Ang is also a smart man. He has been around Cao Cao and is used to seeing intrigues and intrigues. When he heard Zhuge Liang's plan, he immediately understood the mystery and couldn't help but admire it.
"Kong Ming's plan is very clever. As long as Han Sui receives this letter, regardless of whether he opens it or not, as long as Ma Chao sees the graffiti in it, he will definitely become suspicious. It will be difficult to maintain trust. It is a good alienation plan."
When Cao Hong and others listened to Zhuge Liang's plan, a flash of surprise flashed in their eyes, and they secretly sighed. They were just playing tricks on their brains and had dark hearts. They actually came up with such a sinister idea. Even they would be fooled. Now it seems that Ma Chao and Han
So it was not far away from falling out.
The next day, Cao Ang's army had been repaired overnight and lined up outside the city. The 300,000-strong army was heavily guarded and powerful. The clouds rose and covered the sky and the sun. Their power was extremely frightening.
Ma Chao and Han Sui furrowed their brows as they looked at Ma Chao, feeling a little heavy in their hearts. Cao Jun's army has arrived, and now it is probably difficult to break through Chang'an City and enter Tongguan.
"My dear nephew, Cao's army is powerful, we cannot take it lightly!"
Ma Chao has the body of a tiger and ape arms, the belly of a wolf and the waist of a wolf; holding a spear in his hand, his face is like a crown of jade, his eyes are like shooting stars, his sword eyebrows are slanted, straight into the sky, revealing his sharpness, his tiger eyes are full of cold light, staring at the opponent.
A burly general, he felt a strong threat from that man, his heart trembled, and he nodded in agreement.
"Uncle, don't worry, I will be more cautious!"
Cao Ang, with Lu Bu's support, urged his horse forward a hundred steps, facing Ma Chao, Han Sui shouted.
"Please also ask Prefect Han to come forward and explain!"
Ma Chao and Han Sui looked at each other and nodded slightly. Han Sui urged his horse forward. Behind him were candidates, Cheng Yin, Li Kan, Zhang Heng's personal guards, and Cao Ang standing opposite.
Cao Ang dismounted, bowed to Han Sui, and said.
"Prefect Han is my father's generation, so I should call him uncle."
Cao Ang deliberately acted. Ma Chao, who was far away, wanted to use his inner energy to eavesdrop on what the two people were talking about, but was discovered by Lu Bu and put up a defense, leaving Ma Chao with nothing to gain and had to give up.
Cao Ang exchanged pleasantries for a long time, and without giving Han Sui time to react, he thrust a letter into Han Sui's arms and warned him.
"Please also ask Prefect Han to take a look after you get back!"
Han Sui was slightly stunned and put away the letter by mistake, not noticing the suspicion in Ma Chao's eyes behind him.
Cao Ang then mounted his horse and returned. Han Sui was confused. Cao Ang didn't say anything, just exchanged greetings, and finally left a letter and left. It was really strange.
Among Cao Jun, Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed, he withdrew his mental power and breathed a sigh of relief. It was precisely because he used his mental power to influence Han Sui's judgment that the other party accepted the letter in confusion. When he came back to his senses,
, it's too late.
"Young Master, please order the attack. Don't give Han Sui time to explain. If you miss this moment, the two of you will definitely fall out!"
After hearing this, Cao Ang quickly ordered the army to charge towards the coalition forces of Ma Chao and Han Sui. They set up military formations. The clouds shrouded the generals, and the aura flew everywhere. A fierce battle ensued, resulting in numerous casualties. When both sides saw nightfall, they retreated with gold.
In the large tent of the Xiliang Central Army, Ma Chao looked at the graffitied letter in front of him, his eyes flashed with cold light, and he looked at Han Sui coldly, with murderous intent in his heart.
