Amid the sound, his field of vision suddenly went dark and then brightened again. Ma Su looked around and found that he had been substituted into a simulated scene.
This feeling is like skipping 1D silent movies and 2D sound movies from the era of radio broadcasts, and evolving directly to 3D cinemas.
Realistic and exciting.
Ma Su didn't care whether the system would evolve to 4D or even 5D in the future. He quickly concentrated and looked around.
At this moment, he was leading a force of troops to help Hanzhong. Before he reached Yangping Pass, he was ambushed and blocked in the Chencang Road by Wei general Zhang He.
The shouts of killing were heard everywhere, and Wei soldiers all over the mountains and plains rushed towards them from a distance with fierce faces.
Ma Su instantly knew why he was here.
Ten days ago, Zhuge Liang left tens of thousands of people to defend Dashanguan and Chencang City, and personally led an army of 100,000 to fight against Cao Shuang.
However, Sima Yi led 50,000 Jingzhou soldiers to arrive in time for reinforcements, and the two lifelong enemies met unexpectedly on the battlefield.
Sima Yi gathered his troops, defended the camp, and refused to fight.
Zhuge Liang was unable to attack for a long time, and heard that Zhang He came to rescue him. However, the latter did not march to Chencang, but sent troops to Nanzheng to attack Hanzhong.
Zhuge Liang had no choice but to retreat with his army.
As soon as the Shu army withdrew, Sima Yi immediately followed him all the way to the outside of Chencang City, but refused to fight Zhuge Liang.
Facing Sima Yi's "I'll follow you and keep an eye on you, but I won't fight you" tactics, Zhuge Liang was helpless. He had no choice but to unite his army under Chencang City and confront Sima Yiji.
He also ordered his subordinate Ma Su to act as the general and lead 20,000 people to rescue Hanzhong.
After Ma Su received the order, he led his army on a rapid march. Unexpectedly, as soon as the army arrived at the southern exit of Chencang Road, they were surrounded by Zhang He's general Dai Ling and his army.
Seeing that an encounter is about to begin with great vigor.
At the critical moment, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew in the mountains and fields. Before the Wei soldiers could rush forward, dense ice particles poured down.
The world between heaven and earth suddenly became blurry.
Ma Su knew that this was due to the high altitude of the Qinling Mountains and the abnormal climate. Snow and hail often occurred here in June.
All kinds of extreme weather are common.
Unfortunately, everyone came here today and caught up.
Snow particles the size of marbles hit the ground and jumped up high; the hits on the face were painful and numb, and Ma Su couldn't help but shiver and shiver.
Cold all over!
When I looked down, I saw that I was only wearing a long coat, with my arms exposed, and breathable wooden shoes on my feet. My hands and toes were so cold that I lost my intuition.
On the other hand, the Wei army on the opposite side seemed to be wearing less clothes than the Shu army.
In just a moment, the soldiers from both sides, who were about to fight each other, immediately gathered together in small groups, trembling with weapons raised.
Separated by a distance of seven or eight steps, they looked at each other and were on guard against each other.
Looking at this strange scene in front of him, for some reason, Ma Su couldn't help but think of the scene in Longxi where "many people were killed in the summer mountain marathon cross-country race" that happened in the future.
"I won't freeze to death here, will I?"
Feeling the bone-chilling coldness coming from all around, Ma Su cursed secretly and stood there shivering.
No one answered his question.
Dai Ling, Zhang He's general on the opposite side, was already numb from the cold.
Ma Su looked around and saw that the mountains and fields were bare, not to mention trees, not even any dead grass that could make a fire.
The hail continued to rain down all over the sky with seemingly no end in sight.
At the beginning, even though they were too frozen to stand, the generals of both sides did not dare to take the lead in ordering a retreat, for fear that the other side would catch the opportunity during the retreat and take the opportunity to cover up the enemy.
Half an hour later, both generals regretted their previous decisions.
Confused!
But I can't withdraw even if I want to at this time.
Everyone was frozen to death and lay scattered on the ground.
The entire armies of Wei and Shu were wiped out, and no one survived.
…
At the Chencang venue, Ma Su, who had just returned to reality, opened his eyes, grinned, and laughed silently.
He thought of a way to defeat the Wei army without fighting.
And it's the type where one of your own troops will not die.
Within sight, the light screen shook, and the system voice sounded immediately.
【Dream simulation, I am invincible.】
【This simulation is over.】
[You, in this simulation, appear to be mediocre and helpless in the face of natural and man-made disasters. The haste of departure and the futility of death can be called the shame of the military commander of this era]
[You, your prestige value is -1, your current prestige value is 19.]
"shit!"
“Now I can’t even afford chain life pills!”
Ma Su spat, stood up slowly, and ran straight outside the city to the prime minister's tent.
Zhuge Liang was reviewing the military aircraft intelligence sent from various places. When he heard the noise, he said without looking up: "You Chang, you are here."
Ma Su came closer and cupped his hands: "Prime Minister, I have something to ask of you!"
"What's the matter?" Zhuge Liang stopped what he was doing, looked up and said calmly: "If it's about being promoted to commander of the army, You Chang, don't talk about it."
"The army has military regulations, and it will be difficult for me, the Prime Minister, to agree to this."
"It's not a promotion!" Ma Su waved his hands repeatedly.
"May I ask, Prime Minister, if there are any cotton-padded clothes in the army?"
Zhuge Liang was startled and silent.
This question is very strange. Zhuge Liang did not ask Ma Su why he asked this question.
Usually, when he encounters a problem that he cannot figure out or is at a loss to solve, Zhuge Liang relies on his own clever mind to quickly think of the answer instead of asking others.
Zhuge Liang slowly stood up and paced back and forth in the tent.
He was thinking, what was Ma Su's purpose for suddenly raising this question?
Zhuge Liang felt that he could no longer see through Ma Su.
Since the Battle of Jieting, Ma Su seems to have become a different person. The Ma Su who used to be "unstoppable, elegant, and chatty to everyone he met until the other person couldn't stand it" has disappeared.
What replaced him was Ma Su, who loved martial arts, was ruthless and didn't talk much, and was obsessed with military power.
This is actually a good thing. The Shu Han Dynasty is in urgent need of excellent generals at this time. Zhuge Liang hopes that Ma Di will be able to take charge of the country soon and take care of the country's worries.
However, before he reused Ma Su, he had to figure out why the former's temperament changed drastically.
In fact, Zhuge Liang had already made some calculations in his mind. If he really couldn't figure out the reason for Ma Su's abnormality, then he would leave it to him.
There are too many things in this world that have no answers, and this is not the least of them.
The most important thing is: he admires Ma Su even more now.
After a long time, Zhuge Liang slowly stopped, took out the compass, and conducted some deductions, frowning deeply.
It’s midsummer, and there has been no rain recently, let alone snow.
There is no snow in the Guanzhong Plain either.
Then this cotton coat...
Zhuge Liang raised his eyes and looked straight over.
Then Ma Su knew that it was time to speak for himself.
"Prime Minister, can you please invite three thousand soldiers to collect some military supplies from the people for emergency use?"
"Are you trying to collect cotton-padded clothes?" Zhuge Liang hit the nail on the head, going straight to the core of the problem.
Ma Su nodded.
In front of Zhuge Liang's wise eyes that could see into people's hearts, he had nothing to hide, so he simply told the truth.
There is nothing that cannot be said to anyone.
"Okay, I will give you three thousand soldiers and horses, and you will be asked to collect food and military supplies within ten days for military use."
Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment, took out a troop deployment token, and handed it over.
He wanted to know what Ma Su wanted for the cotton clothes.
"Thank you, Prime Minister!"
Ma Su was ecstatic in his heart. Holding the token high in his right hand, he strode out of the handsome tent and said viciously in his heart:
'I hate two things most in my life!'
"The first thing is someone stole my home!"
'The second thing is that people don't let me steal their homes!'
'Zhang He, you actually dare to attack me in Hanzhong and order Dai Ling to ambush me on the road. You, you are in big trouble!'
'You will definitely be my stepping stone to success!'
