Although Ma Chao and Cao Cao have been fighting openly and secretly for several rounds, in fact, this is the first time they meet Cao Cao.
At the time of Ma Chao, Cao Cao had already fled back to Chenliu County to raise troops because of the assassination of Dong Zhuo in Luoyang.
The two men had a chance to meet again, but it was when Ma Chao and Cao Cao joined forces to attack Yuan Shu.
However, because Cao Cao made a dangerous move and sent 3,000 tigers and leopards to raid Yangdi County, the foundation of the Ma-Cao alliance was torn apart in one fell swoop.
As a result, the two did not join forces to celebrate after defeating Yuan Shu.
Until today, Ma Chao had really met Cao Cao for the first time in this situation of meeting on the battlefield that Ma Chao had thought of.
However, when they met for the first time, Ma Chao couldn't help but feel an uncomfortable feeling in his heart: It was not Cao Cao who showed up directly.
Marching at the front was a huge oar and shield formation as tall as a person, slowly pressing over with the drumbeats.
Like an impenetrable iron wall.
This kind of oar shield is no different from the Ma family shield produced by the Ma family arsenal.
The bottom is sharp and can penetrate deeply into the soil.
Once it is firmly established, it can withstand both bows and arrows and weapons.
It is a movable fortress.
There is a V-shaped gap at the top of the giant shield.
From the bottom of the V-shaped shield, you can just see the numerous spear tips raised diagonally behind it.
Seeing this, Ma Chao couldn't help but take a breath: the length of this kind of spear is about three times that of an ordinary spear, and the state of marching and defending is clearly no different from the light infantry of the Majius Roman Corps.
The Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry can be the nemesis of Lu Bu's roaring charge.
If Lu Bu has the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry in hand, the rows of flat spears will form a thorn wall, ensuring that even the enemy's hair is not touched, and the horses and knights have been stabbed into flesh. string.
From this point of view, Cao Cao has made detailed preparations to restrain Lu Bu's Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry.
It's just that this method of mutual restraint is exactly the same as the method created by Ma Chao, who is very familiar with the cavalry habits.
There are only two possibilities that can explain this situation: one is that Cao Cao or Cao Cao's counselors came up with such a formation during several confrontations with Lu Bu; the other possibility is that Cao Cao's Coiling Snake Camp was unknown.
How to get the information After taking another look, Ma Chao was almost certain of the second possibility: behind the shield, in addition to the spearmen, there were also formations of swordsmen and archers hidden in sequence, which were completely different from the Ma family infantry.
In agreement, it would be a bit unbelievable to say that Ma Chao and Cao Cao have a spiritual connection.
Apart from this meeting, Ma Chao was still a little cynical and immediately became serious.
At this time, there was a strange calm in front of the two armies: at the moment Cao Cao appeared in person, both sides of the battlefield had a tacit understanding and stopped the killing, and retreated into their own military formations one by one, standing facing each other.
After waving his hand, Ma Chao also asked the Shadow Cavalry to reorganize the team.
Chen Gong, who was slowly approaching, stood beside Ma Chao at some point and prepared the same formation.
Now that the two armies were about the same strength, they rushed forward rashly.
It is very likely that there will be a fit of confusion.
Moreover, Ma Chao is more inclined to the possibility of Lu Bu's army being defeated.
After all, Lu Bu's side is far inferior to Cao Cao's army in terms of equipment and morale.
"Gongtai, how is Lu Cao's military situation now?"
Ma Chao did not take a closer look at Chen Gong.
He just asked in a low voice before and after Chen Gong arrived: At this time, it is obvious that neither side is willing to fight to the death.
They can only master as much as possible.
Only by knowing the opponent's details can Ma Chao be sure to deceive Cao Cao.
However, for a while, Chen Gong did not speak.
It wasn't until Ma Chao turned his head to look at Chen Gong that Chen Gong looked at Ma Chao with complicated and suspicious eyes.
At this time, Lu Bu breathed a sigh of relief and said with all his strength, "Gongtai, this is Ma Chao, the general of the Han Dynasty Hussars.
At the same time, he is also my son-in-law and lord, Lu Bu."
After listening to Lu Bu's words, Ma Chao couldn't help but look at Lu Bu in surprise: The rebellious Lu Bu actually admitted that he was his lord today.
Isn't Lu Bu no longer the lone wolf he was before?
However, after hearing this, Chen Gong's stern expression softened slightly.
Ma Chao seemed to vaguely sense the subtle relationship between Lu Bu and Chen Gong: it seemed that Chen Gong didn't have much respect for Lu Bu from his principal ministers.
And what Lu Bu said just now seemed to be to explain to Chen Gong.

Sure enough, Chen Gong glanced at Ma Chao again, seemingly for Lu Bu's sake, and then said to Ma Chao: "Now Fengxian Gong occupies half of Shanyang County and Jiyin County, and Chenliu County is still guarded by Zhang Miao.
As backup, Cao Cao currently occupies the two counties of Taishan and Dongjun and the three feudal states of Rencheng, Dongping and Jibei.
The center of gravity of the battle between the two sides is still Shanyang County; as for the comparison of military strength, Cao Cao has recovered more than half of his strength after more than half a year of recuperation, and our army originally had more than 50,000 troops, but now, Except for the 25,000 county soldiers in Chenliu County who cannot be used, these are the only troops under my command."
"Originally, but now."
Ma Chao didn't care about Chen Gong's weird look at him, but instead looked at Lu Bu with suspicious eyes.
When Lu Bu saw Ma Chao like this, he could not speak: "There are more than 20,000 people under Gongtai, and I have more than 20,000 soldiers.
I'm afraid..."
Seeing Lu Bu's expression as he looked at Cao Jun's camp, Ma Chao understood: Just now, Lu Bu had an army of 50,000, but those 25,000 were swallowed up by Cao Cao right under his nose.
This situation made Ma Chao really shed tears in his heart, and he was speechless and asked the sky to express his sorrow.
However, right now I’m still thinking about how to get through this level first.
At this time, a path had been separated in the giant shield formation, and seven or eight riders came from behind the shield to the front of the formation.
Ma Chao calmed down and felt that the prying eyes became clearer.
Focusing on the formation again, Ma Chao saw that the one walking at the front was a yellow horse.
Its smooth and shiny fur, like silk, could not be described as majestic.
When he looked down, he saw that the horse had four hooves.
White, like walking on snow in winter, it is indeed the famous horse claw yellow flying lightning However, the knight on top of the famous horse somewhat tarnished the style of Claw Huang Feidian.
Although the man was neatly dressed, and the armor was obviously made of fine steel, his short stature and thin torso always made him less majestic than a general.
However, a few steps further, when Ma Chao saw the man holding a long spear in his right hand and a rein in his left hand, as if he was strolling on the battlefield, he had a cynical temperament in his movements, and he immediately It attracted the atmosphere of the entire battlefield to his surroundings.
And on top of this cynicism, Ma Chao also felt a kind of contented domination, mixed with his inexhaustible wisdom that runs like water, suddenly made Ma Chao feel like he was playing with fate in the palm of his hand.
The unique spirit of treating others as nothing but dirt.
The whole time, Ma Chao grinned unnaturally, and naturally felt his identity: of course he was Cao Cao and Cao Mengde.
Besides Cao Cao, who else can have such momentum and grace?
Riding the claw yellow flying lightning, Cao Cao came to a few feet in front of Ma Chao before he stopped.
And Ma Chao finally saw his face clearly: beneath the heavy tiger-striped steel helmet was an ordinary face, with burnt-yellow skin, thin cheeks, and even a somewhat collapsed nose and the corners of his mouth that were inadvertently raised.
Not only did it not give Cao Cao a bit of suave and unrestrained, but it also gave him a hint of filthy philistine.
These really made Ma Chao a little disappointed with Cao Cao.
However, after all, Ma Chao was not a superficial person who judged people by their appearance.
He noticed Cao Cao's eyes.
They were a pair of eyes with invisible depth, seemingly containing infinite wisdom and understanding of the vicissitudes of life.
Under the gaze of these bright and sharp eyes, Ma Chao suddenly ignored Cao Cao's ordinary appearance and thought that he had everything in his heart. of great ambition "I have heard about Brother Mengde for a long time, and said that Cao Mengde is a traitor in the world.
When I meet him today, it turns out that being famous is not as good as meeting him."
Ma Chao was the first to speak.
These words were full of edges and corners, and could be taken as a compliment or as a sarcasm.
How you think about it depends on Cao Cao's state of mind.
As expected, Cao Cao was not disappointed.
After hearing Ma Chao's unflattering words, he was not angry at all.
Instead, he twirled his sparse and dark long beard and laughed loudly: "Everyone in the world thinks that I, Cao Mengde, am a traitor and a traitor." , Could it be that Meng Qi’s wise nephew also believes that if we are promoted to a peaceful world, I, Cao Mengde, might be as capable as Liu Jingzhou and be an able minister in governing the world?”
"But you and I, as well as Mr.
Feng Xian, like this troubled world even more," Ma Chao said.
Hearing Cao Cao's deep and deep voice for the first time, he could hear Cao Cao's open-mindedness.
He was intoxicated by it and spoke the truth in his heart. : "Only when people like us are born in troubled times can we display the great strategies in our hearts and live up to the experience of this world."
"That's true."
Cao Cao nodded and admitted without any pretense.
At this moment, Ma Chao felt that he did not let Cao Cao down
