Chapter 125 1. Rebel Family

When Liu Bei plotted against Yizhou and got into trouble with Mrs. Sun.Ma Chao, the fifth most capable general in the Three Kingdoms era, had to gradually approach Liu Bei because of Cao Cao's personal career planning, and finally had an intersection with Liu Bei. Ma Chao was born in a typical rebel family. As early as when he was 9 years old, his father, Ma Teng, made a lot of noise.It is conceivable that the father's whole mind is to rebel and make trouble, so there must be some deficiencies in family education.Therefore, Ma Chao's style and nature are no different from that of Lu Bu at that time. They are all knights who value courage and strength. They lack the traditional Chinese sense of slavery and pay attention to the honor and dignity of a warrior.

During the Chibi War, Ma Chao stayed in Xiliang obediently, neither recruiting nor provoking others.When Cao Cao was burned by Zhou Yu and fled back to Xuchang, Ma Chao thought it was his turn this time, so he raised his troops to trouble Cao Cao. When Ma Chao made trouble, it was the year when Liu Bei left Zhuge Guan and Zhang Zhao to guard Jingzhou in order to avoid Mrs. Sun. His brother went to Xichuan alone and lay down in Xichuan. Knowing that Ma Chao was making trouble, Cao Cao immediately called an emergency military meeting and asked, "All of you, what can you do to deal with this young and Dangerous boy Ma Chao?"

The generals shook their heads: "That's impossible." Cao Cao: "How is it impossible?" The generals said: "That's the case. This Ma Chao is obviously a Chinese, but he learned the tactics of ancient Rome from somewhere. He is best at throwing spears. My God, when the spear is thrown, it can pierce through the hole. Tie, this little guy is a god of war, no one can beat him at all." Cao Cao sneered: "What's so great about throwing a spear? I have a way to prevent his spear from being thrown." Generals: "Really?" Cao Cao: "Don't you still believe me?"

The generals: "I believe...it's strange." Cao Cao: "Trust me, let's go." So Cao Cao led the team and set off, and when they arrived at Tongguan, troops lined up on both sides.Cao Cao stepped out and greeted Ma Chao and Han Sui on the opposite side: "Old Han, Xiaoma, are you busy? If you are not busy, come and chat." "Hey, this Cao Cao is fun enough." Ma Chao and Han Sui rode over and chatted with Cao Cao face to face.Cao Cao asked: "I tell you two, stop fighting. As long as you are willing to reconcile with me, I will write a memorial to the emperor to show you two. Tell me, what kind of officials do you want to be?"

"I want to be..." Ma Chao moved towards Cao Cao eagerly, trying to catch Cao Cao.But suddenly found a guy behind Cao Cao, with a fierce look, staring at him with dissatisfaction.Ma Chao was startled: "Who is that guy?" Cao Cao said, "He is my personal bodyguard, Xu Chu." Ma Chao let out a cry, knowing that Xu Chu was also good at fighting, and with this guy around, it would be very difficult to capture Cao Cao alive, so he gave up the plan. This chat did not yield any clues, so Cao Cao ordered to cross the Yellow River north, go around behind Tongguan, and follow Ma Chao's back route.

When crossing the river, Cao Cao asked his soldiers to cross first, and he and Xu Chu brought only more than a hundred Huben warriors to cut off the rear in person.Just as he was breaking, he heard the sound of killing. Ma Chao led cavalry and infantry, more than 10,000 people, rushed up quickly.The dense raindrops shot at Cao Cao, but Cao Cao didn't respond at all. The bodyguard Xu Chu hurriedly pulled Cao Cao up: "Boss, hurry up and get on the boat, you are so calm..." Cao Cao: "I... I was scared... paralyzed..." Whether it's a joke or not, Xu Chu hurriedly helped Cao Cao into the boat and crossed the river. Ma Chao chased him to the river, flew wildly with arrows, and shot the helmsman to death on the spot.Xu Chu showed his hand at this time. He held the saddle with one hand to block Cao Cao's arrows, and he pushed the boat with the other hand.It is said that at this time, everyone shot arrows at Xu Chu, and neither of them would survive.However, there was a school lieutenant named Ding Fei on Cao Cao's side. When he found that the boss was in danger, he immediately released countless cows and horses, driving them towards Ma Chao's side.

Most of Ma Chao's soldiers are border residents, and livestock is the most desired wealth of border residents.So Ma Chao's soldiers lost Cao Cao, Xu Chu did not shoot, and all went to rob cattle and horses, which allowed Cao Cao to escape. When Cao Cao crossed the Yellow River, he was squeezed into Ma Chao's house.Ma Chao is a master of javelin throwing, not used to such close hand-to-hand combat, so he retreated to the Wei River, using the Wei River as a barrier, and continued to confront Cao Cao.
