I haven't felt this tired for a long time.
In his memory, Ma Chao felt that except when he and Yan Xing worked so hard outside the Great Wall when he first started his business, he had never felt so exhausted and exhausted.
Even in the many duels with Lu Bu, the threat of dangerous death for a few moments was more numb than the numbness of such a long period of mechanical killing of enemies.
After sleeping for two days and one night, when Ma Chao opened his eyes again, the first thing he said was: "How is Pang De's place?"
Pang De was besieged in Longyou, which was Ma Chao's biggest worry during this period.
Attacking Cheng Gongying with all his strength was also a plan to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao.
But now, Ma Chao still doesn't know whether the Ma family's plan has succeeded.
However, after saying this sentence, Ma Chao felt a pain in his throat like a knife.
The dry tearing pain made Ma Chao groan slightly.
At this moment, Ma Chao suddenly saw that a spoonful of warm water had been handed to his mouth, and in his ears, there was also a strange female voice that he had never heard before: "General Tian, don't worry about the situation.
"Although I don't know the general military situation, the military advisor you entrusted to me when you fainted has still stayed put.
The situation must be under control."
Ma Chao first drank the spoonful of hot water to moisten his throat, then turned his head and saw the girl serving him.
The girl's simple clothes were the most common style worn by civilian women in Liangzhou.
Ma Chao has traveled through this era for more than three years.
After inheriting the characteristics of the beautiful Ma Chao in history, he also has a good appreciation of brocade fabrics.
At this moment, he could tell at a glance that the clothes on this woman were not made by a famous tailor, but rather looked like they were made by a woman who was good at weaving and tailoring.
But Ma Chao would never think that the girl was a maid, not to mention the insightful words the girl had said before.
Let's just say that this woman's jade-like face and the cold and calm expression between her eyebrows are by no means the appearance and temperament that ordinary maids can have.
Especially her fingers that were as tender as green onions, it was obvious that she was not a maid who often did heavy work.
However, after recalling the scene before he fell asleep, Ma Chao guessed the identity of this woman.
After taking a few sips of water with peace of mind again, Ma Chao said, "Thank you, Miss Wang."
After blurting out this title, Ma Chao couldn't help but smile strangely in his heart: Thanks to this pure Han Dynasty, the word "miss" is still an honorific title at this time.
"General Tian recognizes me."
Wang Yi obviously did not expect Ma Chao to recognize her identity at a glance, and stopped feeding Ma Chao water in surprise.
"Ms.
Wang spent all her wealth to help Longxi fight the enemy, and she also set up some strange tricks to stop the rebel army."
Ma Chao first glanced at the water in Wang Yi's hand, indicating that he wanted to drink more.
When Wang Yi was reminded like this by Ma Chao, his cheeks turned red.
Then, he heard Ma Chao continue to say: "As for what was said yesterday that Longxi can be destroyed, we can be destroyed, but if Longxi is destroyed, both jade and stone will perish.
Although Chao didn't hear it clearly, he was deeply moved and admired. " Ma Chao was sincere when he said these words.
Because when he carefully looked at Wang Yi's fingers, he found that there were a few needle holes on her fingertips, which were obviously broken when she was sewing clothes.
Such a rich woman actually cares about wealth and integrity, and there is a man who is so heroic in troubled times.
It is rare and admirable in the world.
What's even more interesting is that this woman is also closely related to the Jin Ma Chao in history.
However, the two were not as friendly as they are now, but Ma Chao and Wang Yi had an incompatible relationship.
In history, Ma Chao even personally killed Wang Yi's son, causing the grief-stricken Wang Yi to almost commit suicide.
Historically, Wang Yi was the wife of Zhao Ang, and when Ma Chao sent his troops back to Xiliang to attack Jicheng.
Wang Yi helped her husband Zhao Ang defend the city and made many meritorious deeds.
From Ma Chao's attack on Jicheng to Qishan's defense, Zhao Ang made nine strange plans, all of which Wang Yi participated in.
Later, after Ma Chao captured Jicheng, Wang Yi had frequent contacts with Ma Chao's wife, which enabled Zhao Ang to gain Ma Chao's trust.
After Yang Fu and Jiang Xu counterattacked Ma Chao, Wang Yi's only remaining youngest son, Zhao Yue, remained in Jicheng as a hostage and was killed by Ma Chao himself, who was extremely sad and angry.
At this time, Ma Chao looked at Wang Yi's quiet and elegant face, and suddenly felt that sometimes it wouldn't hurt to change history.
But then, Ma Chao's mind returned to his current situation.
When Wang Yi tried his best to pretend that he didn't know that Ma Chao was watching him, he suddenly asked: "Have all Cheng Gongying's troops been killed?"

As soon as this question came out, Wang Yi's previously calm and elegant face immediately turned a little cold and stern.
However, she then spoke: "All the more than 43,700 Liangzhou soldiers were killed.
Even the defeated troops who fled to the mountains and forests on the battlefield were dispatched by the Ma Army and brought back with their heads removed."
"Well, not bad."
Ma Chao didn't look at Wang Yi's face and just said to himself: "Then did Xun You give an order to transport these heads to Jincheng?"
"As soon as General Tian gives an order, the men under him will naturally obey his orders."
After Wang Yi finished speaking, he angrily put down the water bowl in his hand, stood up and left, saying: "I still have something to do, and the porridge and cooked food have been prepared. , please use it with caution, General.”
Ma Chao smiled bitterly when he saw this.
He naturally knew why Wang Yi had such a reaction.
However, when Wang Yi left, Ma Chao still shouted: "Please invite all the civil and military personnel of the Ma family.
I will make arrangements for the next step here."
"It's the general who wants to start another round of massacre."
Wang Yi stopped and said in a sarcastic tone.
However, just when she was about to leave angrily, she seemed to think of something again and stopped again.
And it was at this opportunity that she heard Ma Chao's next words.
"Killing 40,000 people may save 400,000 people in Liangzhou.
It is much better for me to do this than to let Liangzhou suffer from turmoil for several years and hundreds of thousands of people to die tragically under the hooves of the turbulent horses."
He sighed deeply and said these words , Ma Chao himself didn’t know whether he was expressing his feelings or comforting himself.
After all, at this time, Ma Chao suddenly thought of someone: Cao Cao.
That man massacred about 60,000 people in Xuzhou.
And the blood on my hands is definitely no less than his.
Now there is only one reason left to comfort and fool himself: Cao Cao massacred unarmed people, while Ma Chao killed soldiers who had become a demon in troubled times.
However, whether they are common people or soldiers, they are all struggling in this troubled world.
But when Wang Yi heard this, he felt sad in his heart: The reason why women stay away from war is not only that they are not as physically strong as men, but also because of their sentimental nature, which makes most of them become war fighters.
The victim.
Before Wang Yi, he hated Ma Chao precisely because all 40,000 people were slaughtered.
Even though she knew in her heart that what Ma Chao did might be for the overall good, she still couldn't talk to Ma Chao rationally.
Even, he didn't even want to look at Ma Chao.
But Ma Chao's sigh at this time also pointed out the weakness in her nature.
All in all, women are strange creatures.
A man will never try to understand it in his lifetime.
However, the reason why Wang Yi still stayed here at this time was not just because of Ma Chao's sigh.
It was because of Ma Chao's sigh that she expressed her inner plan: "General Tian, I have a small request.
I wonder if the general can agree."
Ma Chao, who was thinking about whether he was already a demon, frowned when he heard this: No matter in his previous life or now, what he couldn't stand the most was a woman who asked a man to agree first and then make a request.
It's just that in his previous life, he was humble and guessing women's thoughts, but now "No" Ma Chao flatly rejected Wang Yi's request.
Although it was very cold and harsh, Ma Chao said it like this.
"General" Wang Yi was annoyed, turned around and said hurriedly: "I haven't even said what kind of request you are asking for, so you are like this" "It's because you didn't ask for it, but you asked me to agree first.
In this case, it's the best time to refuse."
Ma Chao's face was still cold and he choked back Wang Yi.
Immediately, he said even more impatiently: "There are hundreds of thousands of people in Liangzhou, and the war is changing rapidly.
I don't have time to talk nonsense with you.
If you really have something to say, tell me quickly."
When Wang Yi heard this, he couldn't help but feel the urge to turn around and leave.
But at the same time, she looked at Ma Chao's cold and persistent eyes, and unexpectedly said her request in her heart: "Jiang Wei, Jiang Ji's son, is less than three years old this year.

Both his parents died in the enemy's conspiracy.
It is very pitiful.
I have a sisterly relationship with Jiang Wei's mother, so I want to recognize Jiang Wei as my adopted son and stay in the Wang family to raise him."
Wang Yi believed that Ma Chao would definitely agree to this request.
After all, Wang Yi believed that these trivial matters would never get into Ma Chao's eyes.
At most, Ma Chao might give some rewards to the Jiang family, and giving Jiang Wei some titles would be enough for him to win people's hearts.
But unexpectedly, when Wang Yi saw Ma Chao's face suddenly became complicated, he then categorically said those three heartbreaking words: "I don't agree."
After saying this, Ma Chao looked at Wang Yi's face with a complicated look in his eyes, and then added strangely: "Because Jiang Wei is my adopted son from now on.
And he The number of adoptive mothers is as many as six, which is already too many
