Return to the Three Kingdoms with the Empire System

Chapter 402
Just when Ye Mo was in crisis, another crisis was approaching the big man.

The death of the Yizhou envoy made Ma Chao furious.No matter how Ma Dai persuaded him, he still couldn't stop Ma Chao's idea of ​​sending troops to Luoyang.

But at this time, Guo Jia and Xu Shu turned a blind eye to Ma Chao's thoughts.

Because these two people know that Ma Chao has never been a person who is willing to bow his head to others.In addition, Ma Chao just finished avenging his father's revenge, this time is really high-spirited, how can Ma Chao continue to lower his proud head?

At this time, the envoy he sent to Luoyang was killed for no reason, and in the end Luoyang did not give any explanation.

With this reason, Ma Chao can send troops to Luoyang City.

When Ma Chao was in Xiliang, the Tongguan imperial army didn't even dare to send troops behind their backs to take advantage of it. In Ma Chao's eyes, it was naturally that those people's combat effectiveness was not good enough.

Facing such an opponent, what does Ma Chao have to be afraid of?
However, Ma Chao's strength has increased a lot after avenging his father's revenge.For one thing, it was the men under Ma Chao's original command in Jizhou who had transformed from recruits to veterans after the war.On the other hand, Ma Chao also recruited a large number of soldiers in Xiliang.

Today's Ma Chao has more than 20 soldiers, and he is definitely an out-and-out prince of today's big man.

It's just that Guo Jia and Xu Shu knew that if Ma Chao faced Ye Mo at this time, the odds of winning would be less than one point.Of course, the premise is that these two people don't know Ye Mo's current state.

Although Guo Jia defected to Ma Chao very early, Guo Jia never gave up paying attention to the news of the imperial court.

Ye Mo is the goal that Guo Jia has always wanted to surpass.But looking at Ye Mo's tough achievements, Guo Jia is very self-aware.At this time, if I run into Ye Mo, I will definitely not be able to please him.

All in all, Guo Jia didn't want to stop Ma Chao's current thoughts at all.As long as Ma Chao is not defeated, it is impossible for Ma Chao to stay in Yizhou, a land of abundance, to develop his own strength with peace of mind.

However, to Guo Jia's surprise, Ma Chao encountered serious trouble in Tongguan.

Tongguan is an important pass linking the Central Plains and Xiliang.With Tongguan in hand, the imperial court can maintain a threat to the Xiliang area and even Yizhou at any time.If Tongguan falls, the court can only rely on Hangu Pass to confront Ma Chao.

Therefore, in Tongguan, Ye Mo has a big trump card: go to the camp first.

At the same time, Tongguan also has a future top counselor who is slowly growing: Fazheng.

But on Ma Chao's side, Ma Chao just used his anger to raise troops, while Guo Jia and Xu Shu did not work hard and were just making soy sauce.

Besides, this season is winter.Although it is said that this winter is a warm winter, it is still winter after all, especially in the northwest region of Dahan, a typical place that drinks northwest wind every day.

For three days in a row, Ma Chao lost three games in a row outside Tongguan. Not to mention the loss of soldiers, he never even went up the city wall of Tongguan.

"Brother, now that we have lost three games in a row, the soldiers below are already emotional. It is better to withdraw the troops, so as not to cause too many complaints from the soldiers below." Ma Dai saw that Ma Chao returned to the barracks with a dark face again, Immediately greeted the past again.

It's just that Ma Chao's heart is full of anger at this time, seeing what Ma Dai said, how can he think that Ma Dai is a kind reminder?

"Shut up, those bastards are so useless. Tomorrow, I will go into battle in person!" Naturally, Ma Chao would not do anything to Ma Dai, and immediately poured out all the anger in his heart on the heads of his soldiers superior.

However, fortunately, none of the generals in Yizhou were here at this time. Otherwise, I don't know how many people would be chilled.

In Tongguan, Qu Yi also frowned at this time.Although it is said that the attack of Yizhou soldiers was repelled in the past three days, after three days, Tongguan also suffered a lot of losses.

"Military division, what are we going to do after you talk about it?" To be able to defend Tongguan in the past three days, Fazheng has contributed a lot.If it weren't for Fazheng's strategy, Tongguan might have fallen into the enemy's hands.

You must know that Tongguan's defenders are limited after all.However, the Yizhou army outside the pass took turns to fight, not to mention reducing their own casualties to the greatest extent, and once caused huge troubles to the soldiers guarding the pass.

Fazheng actually didn't come up with any good ideas at this time.It was a cold day, and although it gave more advantages to the officers and soldiers defending the city, it also minimized the impact of all strategies.

"General, the only plan now is to notify Lord Ye as soon as possible to send additional reinforcements. At the same time, the defenders of Hangu Pass can also be sent to support. With Tongguan's strength, we can defend for another ten days and a half months. It's not a big problem." Fazheng pondered for a while, but still made the safest decision.

Qu Yi saw the law and was about to ask Luoyang for help, but at first he didn't want to agree.As soon as the letter asking for help reached Ye Mo, Qu Yi's ability was worthy of questioning.

But at this time, it is not the time to consider whether one's ability will be recognized by others. Whether Tongguan can be held is the key issue.

However, it was precisely because of Fazheng's decision that Tongguan was still controlled by the imperial court in the end.

……

Ye Mo got the news that Tongguan was attacked by Yizhou army, it was a week after he returned to Luoyang.

But when he saw the messenger for the first time, Ye Mo only answered "Oh", which made the messenger very confused.However, when he went out to blindly worship the ability of "Ye Banxian", the messenger directly thought that Ye Mo didn't mean to put Yizhou army in his eyes at all.

Although the messenger from Yizhou didn't know what Ye Mo meant, Ye Fu and Ye Que knew very well that Ye Mo had absolutely no idea about the attack on Tongguan that the messenger said.

Three days after the messenger returned excitedly to convey the news, Ye Mo still stayed in the Ye Mansion, not even going out.

There are things that even the system can't solve. Ye Mo has gone to Tongguan, what problems can he solve?

Finally, on the tenth day after Ye Mo returned to Luoyang, Huangfusong, Zhu Jun, and Lu Zhi came to visit together.

When these three people came to visit, Ye Mo naturally couldn't hide from them.It's just that when meeting guests, Ye Mo's complexion was surprisingly bad.

Thick dark circles under the eyes, pale complexion, coupled with a decadent temperament, Ye Mo looks like a senile old man.

Seeing Ye Mo like this, the three of them were shocked.How could they have guessed that Ye Mo, who was rumored to be like a "butcher" in Luoyang City, gave people the feeling that he was about to die.
