Chapter 274 [Ma Chao's challenge]
(Thanks to the alliance, there are so many double rewards. Thank you Zhao Wuxiu 2014, ufgw, glorious charter, and "a lonely heart". This book friend had previously posted a comment. Because of the keyword error, I thought about it for a long time. I don't know whether it's a praise or a criticism. Now when I see the reward, I finally understand. Thank you.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When Ma Han came down from the court, he added a gold seal and a copper seal on his waist. The gold seal was engraved with "General of the Cavalry" and the bronze seal was engraved with "General of the Dragon and Wolf".
That's right, Ma Han was promoted again. Now his official titles are: General of Cavalry, Guangluqing, Chief of the Si Li, Record of the Secretariat, General of the Dragon and Wolf General, Marquis of Xiangping, and Fake Jiecheng.
In this series of dazzling titles, in addition to the two levels of general, he also transferred from Guangluxun as the deputy position of Guangluxun to Guangluqing, and officially became one of the nine ministers. The Record of Shangshu was an important central position, that is, the position of Shangshuling, and was always the position of powerful ministers in the Eastern Han Dynasty. In history, Cao Cao took over the emperor, and in addition to the false title of Taiwei, the first one to seize these two positions: Sili School Guard and the Record of Shangshuling. It is conceivable that the key points are the key points.
Such rapid elimination of the rebels who caused harm to the Han Dynasty was definitely a great achievement in the hearts of the emperor and all officials, and there was no way to express gratitude without reward. If it were not for the position of General Yuan Shao, and the position of Grand Sima and General was similar, there was only one, and there was one or the other, he would definitely have given this position to the young relative of the foreigner.
Well, relatives of the outside world, this is very important. If Ma Han did not have this status, no matter how great his meritorious service was, he would not be able to climb so quickly. In other words, he would climb high and fall badly, just like Yang Feng, Han Xian and others in history.
Compared with the second-ranked General of the Cavalry of the Han Dynasty, the General of the Dragon Wolf was ten or eight streets away, but in terms of real power, the latter was the real master of the army. This position must be a Martyr, and no one dared to raise an objection, no matter who he is, no matter how much he or they want to replace it.
After the victory, the army returned to the court, and the direction of the court was changed. It was no exaggeration to describe it as praise and praise. If it was a prosperous era, this was a typical example of great achievements that shocked the master. The horse man would probably be "praised and killed". Today's golden belt and tomorrow's white silk belt are not surprising.
Fortunately, this is a chaotic era, and fortunately, Ma Han is the real oss in Luoyang.
After retreating, he responded with the officials who came to congratulate him with smiles. Ma Han's face was a little stiff and he had just walked out of the Quemen. A knight rushed over from a distance. When he looked closer, he found that it was Jack Ma.
Ma Han smiled and raised his head, saying half a sentence: "Have your father arrived..." Then he stopped. Because he saw that Ma Yuntu's face was full of anxiety, something must be important.
Even Jia Xu and Guo Jia, who were beside him, stopped discussing and raised their eyes to look at the girl knight.
Seeing the officials who went to court one after another, Ma Yunli held it in for a long time and said one sentence: "Please go to Xiguomen Camp as soon as possible."
Xiguomen is seven miles away from Luoyang City, and is the last barrier to the west of Luoyang. Of course, this barrier can only prevent internal chaos or small rebellion. If a large army comes, such as Li Jue and Guo Si, this barrier will at most play a role in making the court surrender decently.
After defeating the Xiliang Army, the soldiers who made contributions in this battle gathered in the Xiguomen camp, waiting for the court's favor. However, the court has just reached the "food and clothing stage", and the only kindness that can be reduced is only one blank official or title. If it is rewarded, then it will be a joke. If there is no Ma Han paying for it, the emperor will probably only be rewarded with a few cow bones. This is also the reason why Ma Han is not afraid of the court's secret moves and takes away his own army.
An army, from selection, training, equipment, and logistics, is all handled by the head coach. In the end, the head coach paid for the rewards for winning the battles out of his own pocket. How could you take it? I really thought that a few blank official bodies and half a kilogram of copper material (official seal) could make people lick it? Perhaps this move is good for the big Han scholars, but for soldiers who put their heads on their belts and only for three meals and two nights, it is not easy to use at all.
The emperor and the ministers were arrogant and always thought that thunder, rain and dew were the kindness of the king. They didn't know that the soldiers really didn't buy it, and mutinies from ancient times to the present were mostly caused by this.
However, when Ma Han and Ma Yun Feiqi arrived at the Xiguomen camp, the loud shouts from the military camp were not mutiny, and they sounded very enthusiastic.
Ma Han glanced at Jack Ma beside him. The daughter of the Ma family looked helpless and even more nervous.
As soon as Ma Han got off his horse, he walked into the school ground from the camp gate and came towards him. The entourages on both sides were so scared that they drew their swords, but were stopped by Ma Han. He had excellent eyesight. In the midst of lightning, he could see clearly that the black shadow was actually the back, and the back he was very familiar with - Zhou Cang.
Zhou Cang flew over backwards, not because he had figured out some new tricks and wanted to practice with his lord, but because he was involuntarily involuntarily. There was only one possibility in this situation - he was thrown over by someone.
Ma Han's waist sank, raised his arm and placed it on Zhou Cang's back waist, swallowed and spit away, and removed most of his strength, followed the trend and sent Zhou Cang out seven or eight steps. Although he was staggering, he stopped and did not lie down.
A young and clear voice across the street laughed: "General Zhou Lang said that he was defeated by the cavalry battle. I then abandoned my horse and competed with you. I never wanted to fight and look like this..."
The soldiers can be killed but not humiliated. Zhou Cang lost his face in front of the lord and the soldiers, his face flushed, and he was about to rush forward again.
Ma Han took a step forward, pressed Zhou Cang's shoulder, and smiled and said, "You can't beat him, and it's not embarrassing to lose to Xiliang's 'Jin Ma Chao'."
Well, the one who killed Zhou Cang in two rounds was Ma Teng's eldest son, Jack Ma, the number one general in Xiliang, and Ma Chao.
Ma Yunsui hurriedly came to him because her brother Ma Chao was looking for Ma Han in the camp of Xiguomen, saying that he wanted to ask for advice from this brother. As a result, many generals of the Dragon Wolf Army were indignant and challenged him. When Ma Yunsui heard the news, he was afraid that something would happen, so he quickly asked Ma Han to put out the fire.
When Ma Han heard this, he immediately rushed over. Not only to "put out the fire", but more importantly, this family was so famous in later generations. It would be fine if there was no chance. Since there was a chance, how could he not see him?
Around the schoolyard, nearly a thousand soldiers watching the battle, approaching the entrance, a young man who had obviously passed the crown ceremony was standing: his body was eight feet tall, his face was singular, his thick eyebrows were bright, his eye sockets were slightly sunken, his two black pupils flashed like cold light, his nose was high and straight, which was different from those of the Central Plains; his tight lips, his hard contour lines, and his strong jaw all showed that this person must be a strong, tough and powerful person.
He seemed to stand casually with a spear, but there was a faint pressure on his body, giving people a sense of danger that a lion devoured people.
This is Ma Chao? This must be Ma Chao!
Ma Han had never seen Ma Chao. But this kind of pressure was only felt by Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and not even Taishi Ci or Xu Huang. So, he must be Ma Chao!
In fact, to be fair, it is not that Taishi Ci or Xu Huang does not have this pressure. They have it, even Le Jin, Chen Dao, Guan Hai, and even Zhou Cang. However, they cannot make Ma Han feel threatened - the sense of danger when one beast encounters another beast. It has nothing to do with identity and status, it is purely an invisible collision between two powerful life magnetic fields.
In other words, when facing Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Ma Han, there is no certainty in winning. Therefore, he feels pressure. Taishi Ci is below, he wins as much as he fights, so there is no pressure. If he changes to another person, such as Xiahou Lan, even if he faces last Zhou Cang, he will feel a certain pressure.
Of course, Ma Han himself has even more pressure. It's just that he doesn't realize it. He is very similar to Lu Bu. He has strong confidence in his own force, and is also superior. If he gets one of the three, it will be enough to create momentum, such as Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Guan, and Zhang; if he gets the second of the three, his aura will be not as powerful as Yuan Shao and Cao Cao; if the three are combined, he will be powerful in the world, such as Ma Han, and Lu Bu, and perhaps he will have to add a little overlord Sun Ce who has not yet become a magnificent.
When Ma Chao saw Ma Han, his eyes were magnificent, his muscles were unconsciously tense, his hair was standing up, and there was a layer of electricity on the surface of his skin. He also felt that pressure, even more than Ma Han's feeling. His eyes seemed to be firmly sucked, and he paused word by word: "You must be General Wei Ma Jinglong."
Ma Yunli, Zhou Cang and his entourage, who were originally following Ma Han, all felt that they were not breathing well and stopped, but could not keep up with their lord.
Ma Han seemed very relaxed, took a few steps forward calmly, and said with a smile: "Correction, it's General Husband. General Guard is already a thing of the past."
"Okay!" Ma Chao's expression suddenly became excited and he was eager to try, "It's indeed worth being my opponent."
At this moment, a voice came from behind: "A little cavalry Sima is not qualified to challenge General Cavalry, come on to me."
Ma Chao turned his head. He didn't want to pay attention to the person who was talking, but this person released a pressure that he could not ignore, so he turned his head - a general in his thirties, riding a horse and holding an axe, waving to him.
Xu Huang!
If it were in the past, Ma Chao would have been excited about having such an opponent, but at this moment he only had a Marshen in his eyes, and no one else took it seriously, so he shook his head: "The nameless man is not worthy of competing with me."
Xu Huang raised his eyebrows: "What kind of opponent are you looking for? Is it fame? Or strength? If it is fame, I really don't; if it is strength, I have some more."
After Xu Huang said that, he drove his horse to the cavalry training ground at the school ground, and with a big axe, he slashed at the wooden man's stake.
These wooden stakes are made of dense camphor wood, which is as thick as a bowl. They are covered with different depths of knives and axes. They are facilities for training cavalry to kill and chop skills. The deepest chopping marks on them are three inches of wood. Don’t underestimate these three inches. Those who can easily do this are good players who use sabers. Cavalry chases infantry with knives and axes, and do not use brute force. They use cuts and cuts. If they are not well mastered, they either burst their mouths by the weapons and armor, or they are cut into the enemy's body and cannot be pulled out, making the weapons in their hands become disposable weapons.
Under the gaze of thousands of people, they saw Xu Huang riding like flying, swinging axe like the wind, clattering, cutting five wooden stakes in one breath, smoothly cutting the incision and finishing in one go.
For a moment, inside and outside the schoolyard, the sound of colorful sounds were like thunder.
Ma Chao laughed: "It's really enough to be my opponent." As soon as he waved his hand, a servant led a tall and majestic Western Regions horse.
Ma Chao turned over the horse, took the horse spear, and knocked his feet, but instead rushed towards Xu Huang, there were a pergola not far away. There were more than a dozen low-level officers sitting in the pergola, all of whom stood up in shock and suspicion.
Ma Chao rushed closer, without saying a word, and stabbed the four wooden pillars in the awning. The wooden pillars were as thick as ordinary people's waists, and the material was also camphor wood.
The sound of the horse spear holding the wind and thunder crackled into the wooden pillar, and the wood chips flew, and the spear blade penetrated through the pillar.
Ma Chao shook his arm with one hand, and the spear rod was penetrated with a silence, and the wooden pillar was cracked horizontally.
The next moment, Ma Chao kept running, and used the horse's rushing force to pull out the horse's spear and stab at the next wooden pillar.
There were crackling sounds, and three or four pillars were folded, and the awning collapsed. The dragon and wolf officers inside exclaimed in surprise, all shocked Ma Chao's bravery.
Needless to say, there are wooden stakes on one side and wooden stakes on the other side, which is intuitive and clear, and the highest is judged immediately. Although there are many factors to win when fighting on the battlefield: environment, mentality, horsepower, physical strength, technology, etc., at least from the perspective of fighting, the outcome is clear at a glance.
After Ma Chao finished his work, he didn't look at Xu Huang, and urged his rider to come to Ma Han, raised his thick eyebrows: "How?"
Ma Han smiled and said, "If you can join Ma Deheng's Luoyang Project Demolition Team, he will definitely be very happy."
Ma Yunli covered his mouth and laughed gurglingly.
Ma Chao had a hunched face: "Can you fight?"
"Dance of swords and guns will hurt your harmony." Ma Han smiled and said, "How about we wrestle the arm?"
Ma Chao raised his thick eyebrows and slowly fell down: "Can you compare arm strength and wrist strength? It's OK, come on!"
A moment later, Ma Chao ran out of the tent of the Central Army camp, without saying a word, turned over and whipped the horse hard at his beloved war horse. The war horse raised its head and neighed with a grievance, and left with its hooves. (To be continued, please search for astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
