Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 593 Zhuge seizes the water from the sky

The arrival of Ma Jun also made Yuan Tan overjoyed, and went out of the city to meet him in person.

When Ma Jun saw Yuan Tan coming out to greet him in person, he felt even more grateful. At this moment, he was eager to shed his blood for Yuan Tan.

Yuan Tan didn't say much, and showed the drawings in his arms to Ma Jun. Ma Jun looked like a fan at first, but when he saw the drawings, he changed.

"Qihou, where did this drawing come from?" Ma Jun looked serious.

"Don't ask where it came from, can the ship on it be constructed?" Yuan Tan also asked,
Ma Jun looked at it carefully for a while, and then solemnly said to Yuan Tan: "The ship on this drawing is well-constructed, and its internal mechanism is also exquisite. If the lord hadn't asked me to build a water hammer car before, I'm afraid it wouldn't be worth it at all." Possibly, but now I'm [-]% sure."

Yuan Tan looked at Ma Jun's serious face, and said, "It's not necessary to fully build it. I just want to add some of its internal functions to our current warship. I wonder if it's possible?"

Ma Jun immediately replied: "This is not difficult. If we only extract some of its functions, I will be [-]% sure."

Yuan Tan also patted Ma Jun's shoulder happily, and said with a smile, "Hello there, you've been exhausted today, go rest first, and then go to construction tomorrow. I've already arranged a banquet for you."

"My lord's kindness, let me wait for the craftsmen to be treated like this, how dare we neglect it, I will have a feast with the lord after I finish this banquet." Ma Jun saluted.

Seeing Ma Jun's determination, Yuan Tan followed him and said, "Okay, then I will wait for you to celebrate when you finish."

But just as Yuan Tan was building a naval army, Liu Bei, who had already entered Shu, was not calm enough.

After entering Shu, Liu Bei was not welcomed by Liu Zhang, and therefore suffered a lot of ostracism, and even almost died in Shu. Thanks to Zhuge Liang's good strategies, he finally settled in Shu.

Liu Bei also laid a dead hand on his clan, taking Chengdu and Yizhou.

After Liu Bei secured Yizhou, it was Yuan Tan who had just captured Jingzhou.

When Zhuge Liang knew that Jingzhou had been captured by Yuan Tan, he secretly complained, but now he really had no choice. If he fought Yuan Tan, whose morale was greatly shaken, he would be hitting the stone with an egg, so he set his sights on the Xiliang Zhuge Liang. land.

Therefore, he asked Liu Bei to take [-] soldiers from Shu to go out from Yangping Pass to seize Tianshui County.

Use this to open the door to the Central Plains.

At this moment, the counties in Xiliang were all unified by Ma Teng, and now they are also Ma Teng's sphere of influence.

After Zhuge Liang's army set out for a period of time, Yuan Tan received a letter from Xuzhou. It was his sworn brother Ma Chao who knew that there were changes in Xiliang, so he couldn't wait to ask Yuan Tan for his resignation. Go to Xiliang.

Yuan Tan was also worried about Ma Chao. After all, it was Zhuge Liang who came out of Shu this time. This person was undoubtedly a mastermind. Ma Chao, a reckless man, was afraid that he would not be able to defeat him. If something happened, Yuan Tan would also feel a little distressed.

So he arranged the affairs of Jingzhou properly and went alone. Although Deng Ai also wanted to go with him, Jingzhou had just been recovered not long ago, so nothing could happen, and a tiger general was still needed to guard it.

Now only Deng Ai is here, Yuan Tan has nothing to do, and Deng Ai also understands the key.

He just stayed and guarded Yuan Tan.

Zhuge Liang, who came out of Shu this time, brought Zhang Fei, Liao Hua and others with him, and they also advanced all the way, conquering countless counties, large and small, along the way.

Seeing that it was time to take Tianshui County with confidence and pave the way for Hanzhong to be ruled in the future, something Zhuge Liang didn't expect happened.

This day, Tianshui City was indeed extremely difficult to capture. For several days in a row, the city was strictly guarded and did not move at all.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang also thought of many siege strategies for use, but none of them worked.

In addition, the Shu army also suffered heavy casualties in several consecutive days of critical battles. Zhuge Liang also realized that this battle could no longer be fought like this, so he sent an order to rest and recuperate, waiting for a fighting opportunity.

However, Zhang Fei, who couldn't sit still, ran to Zhuge Liang to make a fuss and asked Zhuge Liang to let him lead troops into battle.

It was also suppressed abruptly by Zhuge Liang on the grounds of resting the morale of the army.

Zhang Fei was also upset when he heard this. If Liu Bei hadn't told him to listen to Zhuge Liang when he came, Zhang Fei would have been violent by now.

Zhuge Liang was also very curious about the wizard in the city. Why did he need someone?He was able to defeat his plans many times.

But in Tianshui City at this time, Ma Zun, the city guard, was extremely proud. Ever since he listened to Jiang Wei who joined the army in everything, Tianshui City was still in his hands under several attacks by the Shu army.

Therefore, he also obeyed Jiang Wei's words.

However, although Jiang Wei's schemes were good and achieved good results, Ma Zun still felt uneasy about Jiang Wei.

Since several battles had allowed Jiang Wei to establish prestige in the army, everyone in the army now only knew Jiang Boyue, and who knew the prefect Ma Zun.

If Jiang Wei surrenders in Kaicheng at this moment, he may not be able to command the others, so he will have no choice but to be captured.

Although he was still frightened, he still had to rely on Jiang Wei, so Ma Zun felt both love and fear when he saw Jiang Wei, but he was helpless.

And recently there was good news that Ma Chao arrived in Anding County and led troops to support him.

Ma Zuncai finally got better, and when Ma Chao arrived with his troops, he would be able to solve the danger of Tianshui.

At that time, there will be no need for Jiang Wei to join the army, so let him go home and rest.

Although Ma Zun is not very reliable, Jiang Wei is always paying attention to the dynamics of the Shu army in order to think of countermeasures in time.

However, recently Zhuge Liang stopped his troops outside the city and stopped attacking, making Tianshui City extraordinarily quiet.

Jiang Wei was even more worried about this situation, for fear that Zhuge Liang was planning something.

After these few battles, Jiang Wei also felt that there were people in the Shu army who were good at military strategy, and their abilities were far superior to his own. The reason why he was able to defend this time was because it was easier for him to defend the city.

It was so quiet outside the city at the moment. If Jiang Wei hadn't been tasked with defending the city, he would have wanted to lead his troops and rush over to see what medicine Zhuge Liang was selling in his gourd.

However, within a few days, there was an army approaching Tianshui City in the distance. Ma Zun was overjoyed and thought that Ma Chao's army had arrived and he would open the door to greet them.

However, Jiang Wei persuaded again and again: "The county guard must not be careless. It will not be too late to open the door after the army arrives. Don't fall into the trap."

Ma Zun refused to listen and insisted on opening the door to greet Ma Chao. He then led everyone out on horseback to greet him.

However, when the army arrived, a big man with a beard rushed over and shouted: "Zhang Yide of Yan is here, why don't you surrender quickly?"

"It's not a good idea, retreat quickly." Ma Zun was startled and sweated when he saw Zhang Fei, and hurriedly ordered to retreat to the city.
