Chapter 40 The Colonel
Chapter 40: Go to the Military Academy Captain
Ma Chao had 300 soldiers under him, and there were 400 war horses, so war horses were not a problem. After Ma Chao personally helped the young emperor to sit on the war horse, he helped King Chenliu to the war horse. Then he flew onto the war horse and said loudly: "Get out and escort Your Majesty back to the city."
The young emperor Liu Bian and King Chenliu Liu Xie were so scared that they would have recovered. After thinking of Ma Chao's agility and enviousness, King Chenliu strengthened his courage and said, "General Ma, you are so skillful, can you enter the palace to teach me martial arts?"
When the Shao Emperor heard this, he quickly turned his head to look at Ma Chao and said, "General Ma, what the emperor said is so true. I hope you can enter the palace to teach me how to learn martial arts."
Although Ma Chao wanted to refuse, he thought that if he was a minister, if he refused the emperor, although he could not do anything to him now, he was also rude, so he immediately bowed and said, "Since your Majesty is not abandoned, I should be willing to go."
"It's so good. When I return to the palace, I ask my mother and I will make you my grand tutor." After all, the young emperor is just a child, so I was very happy to meet Ma Chao.
"Your Majesty, I have a reluctant request?" Ma Chao said immediately.
"speak!"
"I am all elite soldiers. I hope Your Majesty will allow you to enter the palace and serve as a training warrior, and you can also protect Your Majesty's complete sect." Ma Chao did not want to enter the palace alone, so he hurriedly brought his soldiers in with him.
"Brother, the imperial guards in the palace, after this chaos, they need to be reorganized. I see that General Ma's troops can be incorporated into it." King Liu Xie of Chenliu saw that the young emperor hesitated and persuaded him.
"Accurate!" Seeing his brother persuaded him, the young emperor immediately allowed him.
The army and horses went straight down the mountain. As soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, all Chinese civil and military officials led a group of troops to greet them. After the two armies met, they continued to move forward.
At dawn, I suddenly saw a flag covering the sun, and the dust was flying, and a soldier swept over me. Ma Chao was in the central army and saw a big Dong embroidered on the flag in front of the formation. He knew that this must be Dong Zhuo, and said immediately: "Ling Ming, if the enemy general comes out to answer, he will kill me without saying a word."
"Where is the emperor?" A general rushed out of the army and asked sternly.
"Dare you dare to rob me, how can you kill me?" Pang De received Ma Chao's military order and came out of the horse, danced his sword and slashed towards the general.
"其!" A sound of weapons clashing, Pang De raised his sword and fell down, and killed the enemy general under the horse. Taking advantage of this momentum, Pang De shouted: "Your Majesty is here, and you still don't get off the horse to pay homage. Do you think the sword in my hand is not good?"
When Dong Zhuo was in front of the formation, he saw that his general Hu Zhen was killed in just one round. He was shocked. When he heard Pang De's questioning, he hurriedly dismounted and fell to the ground, shouting: "My minister Dong Zhuo, the guard is late, please forgive me."
When Ma Chao was in the formation, he heard Dong Zhuo's shouting, and he couldn't help but think in annoyance: Damn, isn't it recorded in history that Dong Zhuo came out from his horse and shouted that where is His Majesty? How could he be Dong Zhuo's general?
Ma Chao, who thought he could solve Dong Zhuo with one blow, had already passed the opportunity to meet, so he had to sigh in secret.
"Dong Qing's family invites you to get up, and you can quickly lead the troops and horses to open the road." When the young emperor first saw the oncoming military horses, he was really surprised. It was not until Dong Zhuo fell to the ground that he felt at ease.
After Dong Zhuo received the emperor's will, he hurriedly stepped on the war horse and led his troops to lead the way forward. When he returned to the city, Dong Zhuo's army was ordered to be stationed outside the city. Ma Chao naturally led his subordinates to escort the emperor back to the palace.
After the court officials finished worshiping, Ma Chao came to the side hall according to the order. As soon as he entered the hall, Ma Chao saw that in addition to the emperor and King Chenliu, there was also a young woman. Looking at her robe, Ma Chao knew it and said with politeness: "My minister, Ma Chao, please pay attention to the Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, Prince..."
After hearing the sound, Empress Dowager He turned around. When she saw Ma Chao's handsome face, she couldn't help but lit up and thought to herself in surprise: There is such a handsome man in the world, I'm afraid Song Yu was just like this in ancient times.
When Ma Chao looked up, he saw He Hou turning around. He saw that he was only thirty years old. Just when he was in his prime, he was wearing a golden phoenix robe and stood proudly on the steps, exuding a noble temperament all over his body.
The bright moon-like face was slightly majestic, and there was a sense of charm between her eyebrows. Her red lips and delicate and beautiful lips were indeed a complete beauty. Especially the graceful posture she exuded at this moment, all of which made people feel aroused their heartbeat.
If in normal times, when the ministers in the court met Queen He, they would all bow to the ground, even if they were her close brothers, they would have to see her. However, Ma Chao seemed to have no awareness. When he looked at her, there was no hidden his appreciation in his eyes.
"Bold?" Seeing Ma Chao so unrestrained, He Hou scolded in shame and anger while his heart beat.
"I heard rumors before that the Empress Dowager was the number one beauty in my great man. Chao always didn't believe it. When I saw her today, I was sure that this was true." Ma Chao did not take her reprimand to heart, but instead praised her seriously.
He Houben was still a little angry. When he heard Ma Chao's praise, he couldn't help but turn anger into joy and said, "General Ma is indeed full of courage. No wonder the emperor admires you so much."
"Thank you Your Majesty and the Queen Mother to praise you. I have always only told the truth." Ma Chao said with no sign of fear and smiled calmly.
"Okay, very good. With this courage, you can take on important responsibilities." He Hou nodded and praised, saying, "General Ma, the guards in the palace are now relaxed, I wonder what you have to do?"
"The Empress Dowager, I think that not only the defense in the palace, but also the defense of the city is also very important. Now the armies in the city have no leader, so they should immediately send orders to gather the armies and reorganize them so that the army can immediately restore their combat power. Otherwise, once there is a change, there will be no soldiers in the city." Ma Chao looked calm and expressed his opinion solemnly.
"Your Majesty, what General Ma said is reasonable. Please think about it twice." Although King Chenliu was young, he was indeed a bit wise in his behavior.
While thinking, Queen He said, "Young son, are you going to make the decision?"
When the young emperor saw his mother, he asked himself to make a choice and immediately said, "Ma Chao obeys the order."
"I'm here!"
"You are now named my grand tutor, and take the post of military lieutenant, responsible for controlling the soldiers and horses of the battalions in the city." The young emperor Liu Bian trusted Ma Chao's skills very much. In addition, Ma Chao also had the merit of protecting the emperor, so he also had a sense of extra trust in Ma Chao.
"I received the order." After Ma Chao received the order, he slowly retreated.
