Chapter 557: Ma Chao's Letter


"My lord, there are a large number of Xiongnu cavalry ahead, and they are coming continuously.

Do you want to retreat for the time being?"

In Hongnong County, Lu Bu had gathered hundreds of defeated troops, captured several doctors, looted some pharmacies and wealthy households, kidnapped some medicinal materials, grain and grass, and hid in a wealthy household's grain warehouse. .

At this moment, the bonfire was lit, reflecting Lu Bu's sinister and regretful face, and the unquenchable frustration and anger in his chest wished he could make the bonfire even more intense.

However, when Lu Bu listened to Hou Cheng's report, the expression on his face finally calmed down a little, and he said: "Tell the men not to go out to collect the defeated troops for the time being.

Avoid those Xiongnu cavalry and rest for a few days, maybe In a few days, I will return to Chang'an."

"Return to Chang'an" After hearing this, Zang Ba frowned and endured the pain of two stab wounds on his arm, and asked doubtfully: "My lord, didn't you already say before that Chang'an is no longer the den of our Bingzhou wolf cavalry, why now?"

"Before, I didn't understand the art of war, and only the cruelty and pride of wolves.

Now, I understand that wolves are not only cruel, but also cunning.

In our case, that cunning is the reality of the art of war."

Lu Bu said these words calmly , did not explain to Zang Ba the relationship between the appearance of the Xiongnu Jiqi and their return to Chang'an.

But in his heart, he secretly thought that after returning to Chang'an, he would definitely study hard on the art of war.

But before Lu Bu could remember to read those military books, there was a burst of fighting outside the warehouse door.

Lu Bu couldn't help but frowned, endured the injury and stood up, and said: "Cheng Lian, Hao Meng, Cao Xing, follow me out to take a look."

Three people were named.

Cheng Lian and Hao Meng were slightly injured.

Although Cao Xing injured his leg, it did not affect his ability to pierce the Yangtze with a hundred steps.

After hearing this, he immediately summoned up his energy and followed Lu Bu out.

As soon as he opened the door, Lu Bu saw that his men were fighting with dozens of wandering Huns cavalry.

Seeing this scene, Lu Bu wanted to be angry with his subordinates for disobeying his order to avoid the Huns' galloping cavalry.

But then he looked out and saw in the fighting formation, a female general with a sharp halberd, controlling her energy to make it continuous, and couldn't help but guess the truth of the matter.

The female general was none other than Lu Bu's daughter Lu Qiling.

At this time, she was guarding a carriage, killing or repelling several Huns cavalry from time to time, forcing them not to dare to approach.

And his subordinates also rushed to the outside to rescue him.

Lu Bu no longer had time to think, he rode straight forward, picked up Fang Tian's painted halberd, and with just one charge, he completely broke up the patrol formation of the Huns' rangers, and then led his men to surround and kill them.

In less than a stick of incense, the dozens of Xiongnu rangers were killed by Lu Bu.

Several guys who were trying to escape in a hurry were also shot down by Cao Xing with a few arrows.

Until then, Lu Qiling stepped forward on her horse and said to Lu Bu: "Father, my daughter is useless, she is entangled by these Huns."

"Nothing."

Lu Bu waved his hand calmly.

After carefully checking that these Huns' cavalry did not have horns or whistles, he said, "They are just a group of wandering cavalry, not outposts of the Huns."

Soldiers.

It won’t attract the Huns’ army to encircle and suppress them.

Ling’er, how did you get here?”

"There was chaos in Chang'an.

When my daughter saw the streets were full of those Liangzhou dogs, she asked her mother and aunt to pack up her clothes and be escorted by her family generals to look for her father.

Later, she heard that her father had escaped from Chang'an, so she remembered what you said I've been looking for the Lu family logo step by step," Lu Qiling said with a smile on her face.

Somewhat unbelievable, she finally couldn't help but said: "Father, my daughter heard that those rebels were just led by Li Jue, Guo Bang and others.

You told your daughter many times that they were nothing more than rats and country chickens. , not worth mentioning.

How could the old capital of Chang'an fall into the hands of such people?"

When Lu Bu heard Lu Qiling's question, he couldn't help but feel regretful and helpless loneliness on his face, and he said: "How could my father be defeated by those people?

Behind the scenes in Chang'an, it was Jin Machao who single-handedly controlled it."

"Ma Chao!"

Lu Qiling yelled, her face became even more resentful.

Just when she was about to grit her teeth and speak out some heroic words such as that she must avenge her father, she saw that the curtain of the carriage was lifted up.

Liu Xiu said calmly with a calm look on his face. : "It is indeed him."

"She is indeed his aunt, did you already know that Ma Chao would capture Chang'an?"

Lu Qiling couldn't help but ask when she saw Liu Xiu's sudden words.

But seeing the helpless expressions on both Liu Xiu and Lu Bu's faces, they couldn't help but said angrily: "Did you really be completely defeated by that guy?"

Lu Bu and Liu Xiu couldn't help but feel a touch of sadness on their faces when they heard Lu Qiling's excitement that the newborn calf was not afraid of tigers.

Then, Liu Xiu put aside Lu Qiling, looked directly at Lu Bu, and said, "This is a letter that Ma Chao asked me to hand over to you when I left Fufeng.

He said that he would open it when you are away from Chang'an.

I think now It should be time."

"Xiu'er, you look like this."

Lu Bu reached out and took the letter from Liu Xiu.

He saw that Liu Xiu's loneliness and pain seemed to come from his own defeat, and he couldn't help but asked with concern: "Is there something on his mind?"

"Nothing else, it's just that when Ling'er asked me to go with her, I was thinking whether I should stay in Chang'an and guard the royal mausoleum."

After that, Liu Xiu didn't look at Lu Bu again, turned around and got into the carriage. .

The fallen door curtain seemed to have become a barrier between Lu Bu and Liu Xiu.

Lu Bu knew Liu Xiu's heartache, but at this time he was no longer able to take into account the love between his children.

When I unfolded the letter in my hand, I saw that Ma Chao's handwriting was still so sloppy that it was difficult to read: When the wolf is released from the cage, he can roam freely in the world.

Yuan Shu of Nanyang has long wanted to be emperor, so he can go dormant for a while.

When the situation changes, he will have a mountain forest where he can roar proudly.

After reading this, Lu Bu couldn't help but find it difficult to understand what Ma Chao meant.

He could not imagine why Ma Chao would help him find a way out, and even, in the literal sense, he vaguely believed that he would have an opportunity to stand out in his own league.

Unbelievable Lu Bu was confused and wanted to throw away the letter.

But before she changed hands, she heard Lu Qiling shout: "Father, there is writing on the back of that."

Lu Bu was startled and hurriedly turned over the letter.

He took a closer look and saw that the handwriting on the back was still ugly, but the writing style was extremely ridiculing: It will be hard to lose, but you will see the Huns cavalry.

I want to wait for them to defeat the rebels before returning to Chang'an.

Regain military power.

Stop dreaming.

Do you think those Huns soldiers were really summoned by Liu Xie?

Tell you, it was me teasing Liu Xie.

After reading these words, Lu Bu really couldn't bear it any longer.

He tore up the letter and shouted: "After I, Lu Bu, escaped from the political control of the court, could I still fall into the hands of you, Ma Chao?"

"Father, father."

Lu Qiling saw Lu Bu's sudden change of expression with grief and anger.

She couldn't help but worry about Lu Bu.

She stepped forward and asked, "What did Ma Chao say in the letter?

He wants the Lu family to surrender to the Ma family."

"Surrender to the Ma family."

When Lu Bu heard this, the corners of his mouth turned bitter, and he whispered: "If I hadn't been so arrogant and arrogant at the time, surrendering Ma Chao might have been a way out."

"Father, you are the unparalleled God of War, how could you have lowered your ambition in this way?"

Lu Qiling listened to Lu Bu's whisper of resignation, and couldn't help but said angrily: "One day, my daughter will definitely get Ma Chao's head for her father.

To redeem him for today’s humiliation” There was still a hundred miles to Qinguan, and Ma Chao, who was discussing the Ma family's new policy with Zhong Yao, the new political genius next to him, couldn't help but sneeze.

After looking up, he wrapped himself in a fur coat and murmured: "I don't know.

Those technicians in the arsenal invented the spinning jenny.

Without this fur coat, it really wouldn't keep warm."

But at this moment, Xiao Tian suddenly held a green flag, rushed towards Ma Chao's formation, and said loudly: "Ten miles in front of my lord, I found a group of thousands of cavalry.
