Liu Bei's plan was finalized.

It was decided that Ma Chao and his troops would use their remaining power to call on the Qiang and Di armed forces in Wudu and Yinping to fight against the Cao thieves in order to delay their march into Hanzhong.

In order to increase his momentum, in addition to Ma Chao, Liu Bei thought about it and decided to order Zhao Yun to send an army to Jiangyou.

Jiangyou is an important channel guarding the Yinping Road.

If Cao Jun insists on attacking Hanzhong, he can also bypass the Yinping Road and raid Wudu County to cut off Cao Jun's return route.

The plan has been decided.

Chengdu is all north.

On the outskirts of the city, on the endless plains, athletes from Xiliang were galloping wildly on their horses.

The horses were galloping, and bursts of dust were flying.

Ma Chao is now wearing a silver-white shirt, holding a spear in his hand, sitting on his crotch, his skin is pure white, without a trace of color, and his coat is just right for a good horse.

After a round of practice with the Xiliang knights, which he was most proud of, he rode up to the formation, looked around with bright eyes, and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"My sons, I will lead you and others to the north again to fight against Cao's thieves."

"Would you like that?"

"Kill, kill, kill~~"

A chilling sound instantly echoed Ma Chao's shouts.

At this moment, all the knights in the formation were holding their spears high and roaring at the top of their lungs.

There was a sharp and murderous aura exuding from his whole body.

One of the soldiers looked cold and serious.

When they heard that they were going north to fight against Cao Cao again.

The look he showed was not one of fear, but a strong will to fight.

Cao's army swept through Guanyou, suppressed the rebellion in Liangzhou, and killed countless people in Paoze.

How can such overwhelming hatred be forgotten?

After a while, Liu Bei led Fazheng and others slowly over.

Even before they got close, they could feel the strong aura exuding from the soldiers of Xiliang, as if they were filled with ferocity and bloodlust like wild wolves.

Sometimes it feels daunting, sometimes it feels suffocating!

Looking at this scene, Liu Bei's face remained calm, but his heart was filled with joy.

To have such an elite cavalry.

Even if you face Cao Jun's tiger and leopard cavalry again, what do you have to fear?

There was a certain amount of pride in my heart unconsciously.

Slowly passing by.

What a way.

Over the years, he has been psychologically shadowed by the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

I long for an elite knight army of my own.

Wait for Liu Bei to lead everyone closer.

When Ma Chao saw this, he quickly jumped off his horse and saluted with his hands raised.

Following closely, the other knights also formed a formation and shouted.

"Meng Qi, how are you preparing?"

Hearing this, Ma Chao looked at his master's straight-to-the-point question. Without any hesitation, he directly answered with his hands in hand: "Please rest assured, my lord, everything is ready and ready to send out troops at any time."

"Destroy the invading enemy for our lord!"

"good!"

"I'm so relieved that Meng Qi has such pride!"

After saying that, Liu Bei looked serious and said sternly: "I came here specially to see you off, Meng Qi, and wish you a triumphant return!"

"Thanks to my lord's kindness, I would like to express my gratitude to all my subordinates."

After a lot of farewells.

The Xiliang knights under his command have prepared enough dry food and fodder.

At Ma Chao's order, he set off to the north!

As Ma Chao's troops moved forward to gather at the front line.

At this moment, Liu Bei's eyes were focused, looking at the back of the Xiliang army that was slightly leaving for a long time, and then he looked back and asked: "Xiaozhi, this time I want to personally conquer Hanzhong, what do you think?"

"Second the motion!"

As he finished speaking, Fazheng, who was standing by with his eyes shining brightly, raised his hands and said, "Cao Cao is going to conquer Hanzhong in person this time. I think he is determined to win it. My lord, going in person can also inspire the soldiers to fight bravely."

"Go for it!"

————

As Ma Chao and his troops marched north, passed Guanghan, went straight to Yinping Road, and marched to Yinping first.

But that's when reinforcements haven't arrived yet.

Within the borders of Hechi.

King Dou Mao of Di was in a complicated and desperate mood at this time.

He has not yet waited for reinforcements from all directions.

Cao Cao has personally led the main force to join Xia Houyuan's troops.

At this moment, Dou Mao was in a state of confusion and showed fear.

Probably because he had heard that Cao Cao had been on the battlefield for decades and was very ruthless. Anyone who dared to send troops to resist would suffer an extremely miserable fate after the city was defeated.

"Has the messenger to Bashu not returned yet?"

"What's going on with Liu Bei? Will he help us?"

"What's King Shenlangqiang's attitude? How long has it been? Why hasn't he responded yet?"

In panic, Dou Mao also anxiously asked his subordinates.

The responses I got were all extremely synchronized.

That is, there has been no reply from all parties yet.

Faced with this situation, King Dou Mao of Di seemed to be a little disheartened, and he was filled with regret under his fear.

Why did you want to be the first to take the lead in resisting Cao's army with arms?

As of now, there is no one to help.

Looking at the various Qiang camps stationed in other areas, there was no sign of any sign.

How could Dou Mao not guess their intentions?

Could it be that Cao Cao's army was powerful and he didn't want to offend Cao Cao?

Thinking of this, he could only place his hope on Bashu Liu Bei and continue to send people to contact him.

Just because Liu Bei and Cao Cao have always been serious enemies.

Now it is obvious that Cao Jun is targeting Yizhou.

He believed that Liu Bei would never sit idly by and watch.

only.

He had just sent his men to leave south, and a new round of formations had been set up in the camp of Cao's army, waiting for a fierce attack.

Between the military formations.

At this time, the generals were like stars over the moon, surrounding Cao Cao, who was wearing a red robe and a sword hanging from his waist.

I looked at the Di people's residence for a long time.

He just showed the slightest approval in his eyes and praised: "This leader of the Di tribe can be regarded as a talented person. This station is built near the mountains and rivers, and the defensive measures built around it are also complete."

"The defense line is indeed strong, no wonder it can withstand Miaocai's repeated attacks."

After a while, the words fell.

Xia Houyuan lost his spirit and seemed to feel a little shameless at this time. He lowered his head and raised his hands and asked: "Prime Minister, do you have any way to defeat the enemy?"

After pondering for a while, he had no choice but to ask for advice.

Since his continuous fierce attacks, he has also used all his strength.

But even so, the Di people still blocked their own offensive.
