The night sky in Liangzhou is beautiful, and it is closer to the sky here than the Central Plains.

Zhangjiachuan, all the sounds are quiet, and the guards on the plank road sit together in twos and threes to keep warm...... In the winter of Liangzhou, even wild wolves rarely come out to hunt, let alone people.

The mansion of Captain Ma Teng was noisy. Whether it is Ma Wan and Yang Qiu, who are guarding all parts of Liangzhou, or Cheng Yi and Cheng Yin, who are in charge of the Qiang people, they are gathered in the mansion at this time, and they are discussing that the state pastor wants to start a war in the daytime, and the argument is eager.

With a 'tuk' sound, a foot sharp knife pierced several cases.

"Ponies give us wealth? To whom did he become rich? What his cronies reuse is Jia Xu's old thing! Li Zhan patted the table and said, "Lao Tzu didn't receive the slightest benefit from him, but his brothers died a lot for him!" How should this account be calculated? ”

When Ma Dong heard this, he craned his neck and pointed at Li Zhan and scolded: "Fuck, if it weren't for San Lang's desperate fight for the temple, do you think you would be able to sit on the captain?" Aren't you just a horse bandit, you still have to settle accounts with Saburo? What kind of account? Pick off the padded jacket before talking! ”

"you! How many people are there in the whole state, is it possible that they all have to die for him Ma Yue's heart? is the enemy of the whole world, even Han Sui is not so crazy, right? Li Zhan sneered: "Ping Han Sui and Song Jian, it really makes him crazy!" ”

"You can see it, can't you see it with the wisdom of Ma Junhao?" Ma Yu pointed at Li Zhan cross-legged and said: "He is all because the old emperor is good to him, and the little emperor is what he grew up watching, and he wants to be loyal to his ministers." Li Zhan, you don't know what loyalty is, but don't look at others with your tricks! ”

"Lao Tzu doesn't care about the Han family, he wants to protect the Han room himself, Lao Tzu will not wade into this troubled water with him!"

"Stop arguing!" The candle flame reflected the shining head, and Cheng Yin said slowly: "Li Zhan, your words are indeed biased, monkey, don't say it so ugly." After all, San Lang is the little brother we grew up watching, and now he is the state pastor, it is not appropriate for your brother to talk to his subordinates like this. ”

Cheng Yin is a good man in Sichuan, and when it comes to his prestige, Li Zhan, who was born as a horse bandit, plays with a thin monkey horse, which immediately arouses everyone's support.

Li Zhan, who was hot-tempered, was also a little silent when he heard this, tilted his head and said unconvinced: "If it weren't for the long-term love with the brothers in Sichuan, Han Sui would have rebelled against the Han Dynasty when he rebelled, where would he have left the pony to come back and clean up the mess...... Who! ”

Outside the door, a huge shadow was reflected.

"Tuk Tuk!"

The knock sounded in the middle of the night in the Zhangjiachuan Mafu house, the house was brightly lit, and the hot discussion stopped abruptly with this slow and firm knock.

This is Ma Teng's mansion, who can walk here quietly and knock on the door of the middle hall without being informed by the attendants, I am afraid that there is only one person in Liangzhou.

Liangzhou pastoral!

Standing outside the door is Ma Yue, Ma Yue and Dong Zhuo hit it off during the day, two men who had been fighting in Sizhou were determined to fight in Luoyang again, what kind of spirit was that.

But the gloomy faces of the generals in the river made Ma Yue feel uneasy at night, and it was difficult to sleep.

Therefore, he lightly put on a cotton jacket and robe, stepped on his horse, and galloped for more than 20 miles in the dark until Zhangjiachuan, intending to discuss the customs with the two brothers in detail. But standing outside the door, he heard the ridicule and ridicule of the generals for his vain attempt to launch a war against the world in Liangzhou, so that he stood in the cold winter night.

He stood for a long time before he raised his heavy arm and knocked on the door.

Quiet, the night is quiet to the extreme.

In the room, the candle shadow shining on the window and the figure did not move. The first brother was blocked by a thin wooden door, although the wooden door is thin, but the estrangement in the heart, will it be thinner than the wooden door?

Ma Teng was stunned for a long time, finally sighed, got up and opened the door himself.

The door opened lightly, revealing Ma Yue's face full of smiles, and before Ma Teng could open his mouth, he heard Ma Yue smile and say affectionately: "Are the brothers here?" I couldn't sleep at night when I thought about it, so I wanted to come over and talk to my eldest brother, and everyone was there...... My brother let me in, and the ears on the outside were frozen. ”

All the generals had embarrassed looks on their faces, and Li Zhan was even more uneasy. However, Ma Yue had no embarrassment on his face, and casually pulled a futon and sat in the middle of the crowd, and his body was even next to Li Zhan. Ma Yu's eyes were straight, and there was a sharp knife pierced in the cases where Ma Yue and Li Zhan were facing each other.

Ma Yue's face was full of eagerness, but his heart was very cold.

He thought that he had given Zhang Jiachuan everything he wanted, and even to this day his own mansion has no decoration, and the rest of his family wealth is the same as when he left Liangzhou. He thought that everyone would be satisfied, but he didn't expect that an accidental sleepless night, running dozens of miles to stand outside the gate of the Central Sichuan Mansion for a while, actually made his heart collapse.

It turns out that there are still people who are not satisfied with all this.

"Brother, how can there be a knife here?" Ma Yue pointed to the sharp knife and looked around left and right, pulled out the knife according to a few cases, and saw the short sheath on Li Zhan's waist, so he pinched the tip of the knife and handed it over, "Brother, put the knife away, don't accidentally cut anyone." ”

Li Zhan's face was uncertain, he held the handle of the knife and slowly tightened and loosened, Ma Yue always looked at his hand without changing his face, until he put the short knife into the sheath, Ma Yue said with a smile: "Brother Li, many of your brothers' subordinates have died in battle, this is a fact, our Liangzhou brothers have more or less died on the battlefield." Each has a destiny and complains about it. ”

Li Zhan's hand holding the knife hesitated for a moment, and Ma Yue had already made up his mind about this matter. Just now he wanted to bend over Li Zhan's hand and stab the tip of the knife into his heart...... If this person is outspoken and rebellious, it is very likely that he will stab himself in the back at a critical moment.

"Yes, yes, Saburo is right." Li Zhan can no longer be bullish at this time, Ma Yue dominates the world in Luoyang, and now he has the prestige of Chuxing Liangzhou, and his momentum is incomparable to that of him, the leader of the horse bandits. It doesn't matter what he says behind his back, he can't say anything in person, so he can only nod vigorously.

"In my heart, I regard you as brothers, brothers. Everyone grew up watching me, and you all know what I was like when I was a kid, and I'm still the same as I was when I was a kid. Ma Yue smiled and said: "You just like the little bean when I was a child, some things I said are right, and some things may not be right." When all the emperors in the world do something wrong, if there is a problem, let's sit together and talk about how to solve it, the brothers said that this is not the truth? ”

There was a fever on everyone's faces, what did they gather here for most of the night? It's not just that Ma Yue wanted to go to Sizhou, but in the end, he let Ma Yue say everything first.

"Alas, San Lang, since you've said it here, let's say a few words." Ma Teng sat at the top, and the generals talked about him and never spoke, but at this time, Ma Yue reached the point where he, who was a brother, could no longer say a word, "The matter of going on the expedition, is it too hasty, the Central Plains Imperial Court is extremely easy to recruit tens of thousands of soldiers, and how many soldiers do I have in Liangzhou, San Lang, have you ever thought about it?" ”

"I know it's going to be hard to win." Ma Yue spread his hands and said frankly: "But the famous generals in the DPRK, such as Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, Lu Zhi and other predecessors, will not be my enemy, Yuan Benchu is surrounded by unknown generals, and Yuan Highway is far away in Yizhou...... This time I sent troops to Sizhou, I didn't plan to let my brothers go with me. “

"What?"

All the generals were surprised, and Ma Teng asked: "If we don't go, where do you have soldiers out of the customs?" ”

"If there are no soldiers, I will take 3,000 armor covers. Then recruit some new soldiers from the cool land. Ma Yue glanced up, and said with bitterness in his heart: "Someone at home has to watch." After I left, Liangzhou was temporarily led by my brother, and I ordered the three things of repairing canals, planting cotton, and opening schools in Kaizhou. It's just that after leaving, Yan'er's life will be poor, and I hope that my brother and sister-in-law will visit frequently. ”

"Yuan Highway is in Yizhou, and my brother needs to take care of the war in Yizhou. If Yuan Shu's army wins, I hope that my brother will send troops from Chen Cangdao and follow Yuan Shu, and I will block his way in Qinchuan. Ma Yue said seriously: "If Yuan Shu is defeated, I hope that my brother will capture him, but don't take his life, just detain him in Longxian." ”

"The Dong Brotherhood will send 9,000 troops, stationed in Sanhe to advance and cover the flanks for me." Ma Yue took a deep breath, pursed his lips, looked at his brother who had worked hard for half his life, got up and said, "Brother, if there is an accident in the sky, Yan'er and Xiaoqing will still have to take care of it." ”

Saying that, Ma Yue laughed at himself, "When I was a child, I wanted my brother to raise me, and now I want my brother to raise my son, ho...... The younger brother is not good, if this trip cannot be returned, the elder brother can be the lord of Liangzhou, according to Longguan to wait for the world to be stable. ”

"San Lang, what did you say...... Liangzhou is yours, and the brotherhood guards Liangzhou for you, and no one can take it away! Ma Teng sat down with Ma Yue in his arms, and then asked, "San Lang, when do you plan to go on the expedition?" ”

"You still need to make some preparations before the station, let's go out in April." Ma Yue gave his hand to everyone one by one as if he was explaining the aftermath, and finally said to Ma Teng: "Brother, no matter what Chao'er is, he can inherit the family business in the future." ”

After saying that, Ma Yue got up on his own, said goodbye to everyone, and walked out of the mansion to look at the starry sky, with an indescribable melancholy in his heart.

"What will people say about me in a thousand years...... What is being done today? How many people know what I think? Whispering, Ma Yue led the horse down the street, and suddenly looked east, and although his eyes could only see darkness, it was as if he could see a child's face in the starry sky.

When he became a father, he really understood Liu Hong's sigh when he was dying, and how much trust was in his eyes.

He can't hold this country, but he can always keep a child, right? Even if you fight for your life, you always have to try.

Your Majesty, wait, your armor is coming.

Isn't it just risking your life, Yuan Benchu, you just let the horse come!
