The camp is already halfway up.

It’s understandable that Ma Chao is in a bad mood.

After all, he was finally able to lead an army on the battlefield and felt that he would become famous all over the world.

Being confused by their various performances, Aotou Pass will be easily broken through by him.

As a result, there has been no breakthrough until now.

Although there were beheadings, they themselves suffered casualties.

This was quite different from what he had thought before, which gave him a strong sense of frustration...

All the methods he had thought of before were exhausted, and Ma Chao was a little confused for a while as to what method he should use next to break through the Aotou barrier.

But he must find a way to break through the first pass as quickly as possible.

On the one hand, it was because, after procrastinating for a long time, Guanzhong was afraid of getting the news and sending troops to support.

Secondly, Ma Chao is young and energetic and is ready to express himself well through fighting.

He wanted to let his father, the people of Liangzhou, and everyone in the world see his combat prowess. If he did not break through Aotou Pass before his father led the follow-up army, his frustration would be even greater...

"Brother, why don't we send some troops and go around somewhere else..."

Ma Dai came to Ma Chao, looked at Ma Chao and said loudly.

Ma Chao thought for a while and said: "I'm afraid it won't be easy to do. We have already investigated the terrain here clearly. Aotou Pass is the only passage.

The rest of the place is full of steep mountains, otherwise the traitors in the pass would not have built passes and stationed troops here.

Moreover, there are many soldiers and horses at Aotou Pass. If you want to be able to threaten the people there and cross over, you will need at least a thousand people to be able to do it unexpectedly..."

Ma Dai pointed in the direction of Aotou Pass and said: "But brother, if we don't take risks and take the wrong side of the sword, how can we quickly break through Aotou Pass?

Our vanguard team is still too small in number. Before uncle and his army come, it will not be easy to storm Aotou Pass...

Moreover, when Liu Cheng and Liu Kede attacked Yizhou before, they sent their general Zhang Wenyuan to Xichuan via the Yinping Trail.

Thus taking Nishikawa in one fell swoop.

He can do this, why can’t we?”

Hearing Ma Dai's words, Ma Chao immediately became energetic.

After all, he regarded Liu Cheng as his opponent in his heart.

"My brother is right, why can Liu Cheng, the traitor, do this, but we can't?

I will select a thousand soldiers and set off today to find a path through the mountains to give these people a big surprise!"

Ma Dai hurriedly said: "Brother is a vanguard, how can he do this?

Moreover, if the brother is absent for many days and the thief finds out the news, he will definitely be suspicious, and the brother's reputation will not be prominent and will not attract anyone's attention.

It’s best for me to do this..."

The two talked for a while, and finally decided on the matter, and Ma Dai would lead the troops to do it.

"If this happens, brother, you should be the first to do it!"

Ma Chao looked at Ma Dai and said this.

Ma Dai shook his head and said: "I don't want to be the leader. I just want to be able to defeat Guanzhong and keep our status and wealth..."

…

Ma Dai selected his soldiers, organized his supplies, and left the camp that day.

Instead of looking directly north, we marched about ten miles toward Xiliang before turning north.

Walk north for a while, then turn and head east...

"Pioneer! The brothers who followed the thieves last night and were trapped in Aotou Pass are back!"

Ma Chao bid farewell to Ma Dai and was standing here in trance when suddenly an army general came running all the way to report the news to Ma Chao.

Ma Chao couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, and then asked: "How did they come back?"

He already had some bad feelings in his heart, worried that these people had their heads chopped off and were sent back.

In fact, the biggest reason why he did not lead his troops to Aotou Pass today was not because the soldiers and horses were tired as he said.

Instead, he was worried that after today, he would see Niu Fu order people to throw a bunch of heads off the wall and then mock him in public.

He has just grown up, has experienced few things, and is an extremely proud person. If such a thing really happens, he will not be able to lose face.

But now, his subordinates came to tell him that these people were back...

"I walked back by myself."

The words of his general made Ma Chao stunned again.
