Wei Xiaobao's Three Kingdoms Adventure

Chapter 137 Trapped in the Enemy Camp
It was not until he was surrounded that Ma Yunlu realized that the Xiliang soldiers in the forest had already been replaced by Wei Xiaobao.

Zhang Fei had already ordered the capture of Ma Yunlu alive, but was unexpectedly stopped by Wei Xiaobao.

Wei Xiaobao said, "Third brother, capturing her won't bring any benefits, and it will only waste the army's food. Let her go."

Zhang Fei said, "If you let her go, she'll come back to challenge me tomorrow. Even if I agree to let her go, this Zhangba Snake Spear in my hand won't do that."

Wei Xiaobao looked at Ma Yunlu with disdain and cursed in his heart, "This bitch's temper is somewhat similar to A Ke's. She still has such a sour face even when she is about to die."

Wei Xiaobao said, "In terms of riding skills, you are not as good as my elder brother Zhao Yun; in terms of fighting strength, look at Brother Zhang San! Now I have also discovered your ambush plan. You can't win, and you can't catch him. Why don't you go back and talk to your father and ask him to return to Xiliang tomorrow and stop wasting time here."

Ma Yunlu sneered, "If my eldest brother were here, the three of you together wouldn't be his match."

Wei Xiaobao nodded: "Isn't your eldest brother Ma Chao? I've heard of him. He's very powerful, but I'm afraid it's a bit of an exaggeration to say that he can fight three people alone."

Seeing that he knew his eldest brother, Ma Yunlu was surprised at first, and then he looked proud and said, "I didn't expect that you have so much experience at such a young age."

Zhang Fei quietly asked Wei Xiaobao, "Is the Ma Chao you two are talking about more powerful than me?"

Wei Xiaobao covered his mouth and said, "Don't listen to his bragging!"

Zhang Fei, not knowing the severity of Wei Xiaobao's words, said to Ma Yunlu, "I'll let you go and ask your elder brother, Ma Chao, to come to the battlefield and fight me tomorrow. I want to see how capable he is."

Ma Yunlu said, "I've already told you that my eldest brother is not in the army. If you want to die at his hands, wait until we capture Wancheng and I'll spare your life for now so you can fulfill your wish."

Zhang Fei laughed heartily. "You are a girl with great abilities, and you are also boastful. Stop boasting in front of me, Zhang Fei, and leave now, or I might change my mind."

Wei Xiaobao waved to the soldiers and made way for them.

Ma Yunlu rushed out of the crowd, reined in his horse, and turned back to shout at Wei Xiaobao, "I'll come again tomorrow. Wash your neck and wait for death!"

Wei Xiaobao looked at the dust rising behind Ma Yunlu, obscuring her shadow, and shook his head helplessly, saying, "If this continues, I'll be like the military advisor who captured Meng Huo seven times."

Zhang Fei asked in surprise, "Where did the military advisor lead his troops to fight if he didn't come to Wancheng to support us?"

Wei Xiaobao smiled and shook his head, saying, "I was just making an analogy. Third brother, do you know what an analogy is?"

Zhang Fei feigned anger and said, "I haven't read much, how can I not even speak?"

The two men laughed and led the soldiers back to Wancheng.

A letter came from Xuchang saying that the military advisor had already set out and would arrive in Wancheng soon.

Wei Xiaobao returned to the front-line arrow tower and waited for two days but did not see Zhuge Liang. Instead, he waited for Ma Yunlu to challenge him.

Wei Xiaobao rode out in a light military uniform, looking helpless as he said, "Why are you here again? You can't beat me, so you might as well rest in the army and save some food. If you really want to kill me yourself, call your elder brother Ma Chao over. Maybe he can even give me a duel."

Ma Yunlu was not angry, and said with a gentle expression: "Do you think that since my eldest brother is not here, I can't do anything to you? But I'm not fighting with you today. I came here specially to ask you for my father's favor."

Wei Xiaobao chuckled and said, "Why are you inviting me? Your father wants to marry you to me and ask me to come and propose marriage?"

Ma Yunlu immediately became furious: "I'm talking to you nicely. If you keep talking nonsense like this, I'll go back!"

Wei Xiaobao also put on a serious face and asked, "Why did your father invite me?"

"You'll know when you go." Wei Xiaobao shook his head like a rattle: "No, now is the time when the two armies are facing each other. Can I still survive if I go?"

Ma Yunlu said, "Since ancient times, generals in battle have not killed envoys. My father has something important to discuss with you, concerning the safety of Wancheng. Anyway, I have delivered the message, it is up to you whether you go or not."

Wei Xiaobao's stubborn temper got the better of him: "If you want me to go, I will go. Anyone who doesn't go is a coward. Even if your father beats me into dust with his sword, I will never regret it. You go first. I need to go back and explain to my eldest brother first."

After saying this, Wei Xiaobao turned his horse around and returned to the formation.

After listening to Wei Xiaobao's explanation of the whole story, Zhao Yun firmly opposed Wei Xiaobao going to Ma Teng's camp.

Wei Xiaobao said, "Brother, I know you're worried. But since I'm neither the governor of Wancheng nor the commander-in-chief of the army, it won't do anything for Ma Teng to capture or kill me. Since Ma Yunlu said this matter is related to Wancheng, I'll go take a look first. When the military advisor arrives, we can discuss countermeasures."

Zhao Yun wanted to persuade him again, but Wei Xiaobao continued, "Brother, didn't you also say that there are not many people who can hurt me? I, Wei Xiaobao, am blessed with a long life. Don't worry."

Wei Xiaobao went down from the arrow tower and went out to fight, only to find Ma Yunlu still waiting there.

Wei Xiaobao got up and walked forward jokingly, "Are you worried that I won't go, or are you worried that I don't know the way?"

"All!"

"Haha, then please lead the way!"

As Wei Xiaobao followed Ma Yunlu into the Northwest Allied Forces camp, he was pulled off his horse, two steel knives were put on his neck, and then he was tied up.

Wei Xiaobao cursed in his heart, "Damn it! This woman doesn't keep her word. I've really been fooled!"

Ma Yunlu held a short sword in his hand and waved it in front of Wei Xiaobao a few times, saying viciously, "You slick-tongued bastard, today I'm going to cut off your tongue and use it as a drink!"

Wei Xiaobao chuckled and said, "If you cut off my tongue, what will I use to lick your feet?"

There was a crisp "pop" sound!
Five blood marks suddenly appeared on Wei Xiaobao's face, followed by a burning sensation and pain.

"You bastard, tell me your name!"

Wei Xiaobao spat out a mouthful of blood and said, "My surname is Wu, my name is Lao Gong, and my courtesy name is Hao Gege."

Ma Yunlu frowned and said casually: "My dear husband, brother, why is your name so weird!"

Wei Xiaobao let out a long sigh, then couldn't help laughing.

Ma Yunlu reacted and immediately kicked Wei Xiaobao on the shoulder.

Wei Xiaobao kept crying out "ouch, ouch", but there was already a dagger in his hand.

Seeing him lying on the ground, Ma Yunlu ordered the soldiers beside him: "Send him to my father's tent!"

Wei Xiaobao twisted his body to adjust the direction of the dagger and pretended to be angry: "Don't touch me, whoever kicked me down should help me up!"

Ma Yunlu looked reluctant. He stepped forward and grabbed Wei Xiaobao by the back of his collar, saying, "Stop dawdling. If you waste time later, I'll get scolded too!"

Before he finished speaking, the dagger in Wei Xiaobao's hand was once again pressed against Ma Yunlu's neck.
