After entering, a few people took their seats, and their own attendants poured tea.

Ma Qiang didn't drink this tea, but this tea is too much worse than the tea of later generations.

But even so, this tea is still a precious drink for Zhumen at this time.

"Prime Minister Cao Guo's visit this time, I'm afraid it's not just about reminiscing, right?"

Ma Qiang and Cao Cao first exchanged a few polite words, and then began to get to the point.

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Ma Pingyuan is quick to talk, and he doesn't hide it, this time I came to reminisce about the past, the second is for the alliance, and the third is for advice!" ”

"Alliance?" Ma Qiang suddenly felt as if he had quickly traveled to the time when the group beat Dong Fatzi, what is the alliance doing now?

"Cao Jinan is for the Taishan thief?" Duan Ying chuckled.

"What Mr. Tie said is good, Taishan County belongs to Yanzhou, you and I are both Qingzhou, without the imperial edict, or the invitation of Taishan County, we can't enter the country to kill thieves, so in a short time, we can only defend instead of attacking!

I think that this Taishan thief endangers the Quartet, and the counties have already had the heart to get rid of this thief, but it involves ten counties in three states, unless the three states join forces, it is difficult to eradicate it, so it should be besieged first, and then suppressed by Fu instead! ”

Cao Cao's words made Ma Qiang understand, and he also found that he seemed to vaguely know why Cao Cao could get the effectiveness of the two thief armies of the Qingzhou Army and the Taishan Army in the future.

I am afraid that in the days when Cao Cao was an official in Qingzhou, he already had contact with these two forces.

If he wants to suppress Cao Cao in the future, this Taishan thief will not be able to let Cao Cao recruit him, and he will have to let Gan Shi take the Yellow Turban Token to Taishan for a walk.

Ma Qiang took a breath, and then said with a smile, "Cao Guoxiang said that he wanted to be the same as me, not to hide it from Cao Guoxiang, in fact, I just came from the military camp, when the moth thieves rebelled, this plain country was not affected much, the ordnance was corrupted, the sergeants were scarce, and even the food and salary were not paid for three months, I was preparing to contact my family and recruit some of my old troops to join the army here." ”

"No pay in March? Isn't the morale of the army in turmoil? Cao Cao knew the soldiers, and immediately felt the troublesome situation that Ma Qiang was facing.

Ma Qiang nodded and said, "That's right, I'm going to raise some grain and grass first, and then discuss it with Taicang Ling, at least let the sergeants eat first, these all kinds of things, when all are ready, it will take two or three months." ”

Cao Cao rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "There is a plan to stabilize the hearts of the Plains Army." ”

Ma Qiang frowned and asked, "Will the plan be released?" ”

The corners of Cao Cao's mouth curled slightly, and said, "If there is no money and food in March, there must be corruption!" When borrowing a thing from the military commissariat officer, in order to determine the heart of the army! ”

Ma Qiang suddenly felt that this plot was so familiar...

Wait, isn't this where your wife and my self-support come from?

It's worthy of Cao Cao!

But you can, I can't, we have different personalities, and we are not guilty, I can't do this.

"I already understand Prime Minister Cao's strategy, by the way, I don't know what Prime Minister Cao said he wanted to ask for?"

Seeing Ma Qiang like this, Cao Cao understood three points in his heart, and then turned the conversation and said, "It is this matter of governing the place, in the past, in Guangzong, Cao discussed this matter with Ma Guoxiang, but I didn't expect that after a few months, you and I have become a shepherd, so I want to continue to discuss one or two." ”

When Ma Qiang heard this, he was also very interested, he had indeed been thinking about the problem of governing the local area for the past two days, Duan Ying was good at the military formation, but he was not very good at civil affairs, so if he could get a reminder from a political master like Cao Cao, it would be really excellent.

Ma Qiang and Cao Cao were talking about how to govern the place, and in a room in the Plains City, several people got together.

"What is the Minister of State going to the barracks for today?"

"He was born in military merits, so he naturally still thinks about military exploits, and it seems that he is preparing to fight the Taishan thieves."

"Hmph, if the Tarzan thief is gone, I don't know how many people will not agree!"

"There are only a few hundred people in the current barracks, and he wants to expand the army by 10,000, even if we support him, he will have to spend three or five months, and he is not in a hurry.

The question now is whether he wants to be one of us? ”

"I don't think it's better to let Chang Dao Chang test it."

Several people looked at a Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe.

"It's okay, what people want is just the word fame and fortune, and if you don't believe it, this small country can jump out of this rolling red dust!"

"Chang Daochang, don't underestimate our prime minister." A man dressed as a merchant said, "This person can benefit from the Battle of the Yellow Turban, so I'm afraid he is not an idle person." ”

"Hmph, for three hundred years, this plain has come over like this, is it possible that if a horse comes to the plain, this plain will not be able to change the sky?" Chang Daochang looked at the other side and said, "It's Gao Tang's side, but it's going to be a lot of trouble, I heard that Hua's family is constantly touting Hua Xin, and what Bingyuan and Guan Ning are collectively called Yilong, you all know the situation in Beihai, if you let those people into the plain, we will have nothing!" ”

Everyone nodded.

"Okay, everyone hasn't found out the eyes and ears of this prime minister, so don't stay here for a long time, if there is a change, it's not too late for everyone to gather here again!" The person sitting in the first place waved his hand, and everyone below dispersed, except for the Chang Dao Chief, who stayed, and the two continued to talk secretly for a long time before leaving.

- The Governor's Office

"I see, this Taishan thief, ask for money, I'm afraid Jinan is the same, thank you Ma Pingyuan for your advice, after I take office, there will be a thank you gift!"

Cao Cao was talking when he suddenly heard a cry outside.

Then I saw Qingcheng holding Cao Ang who was wiping his tears with a helpless face, and Lin Zhi who was puffing up with the other hand came in.

"This? Nyingchi! Are you bullying someone? ”

"I said that there are electric lights in the world that can be lit without oil, but he doesn't believe it! I wasn't wrong! ”

"How can there be such a thing in the world? What's more, the gentleman doesn't move his hands! ”

"I'm a little girl! Haven't you heard Old Man Kong say that villains and women are difficult to raise? ”

Ma Qiang looked at Cao Ang's face as if there were scratches, and probably guessed that Lin Zhi obviously felt that he was justified but couldn't win the fight, and finally made a move in anger.

Cao Cao's face was red and white for a while, and his beard was curled up.

"Son! Dare to cry! Cao Cao was about to find something to fight Cao Ang, but was hurriedly stopped by Ma Qiang.

"Brother Meng De, it's all my sister-in-law's fault, I'm here to compensate you!"

Cao Cao sighed and said, "I taught him to practice literature and martial arts in vain, this kid is unexpected, how can he make meritorious contributions to the army in the future..."

Damn, you've been angry for a long time because Cao Ang lost the fight.

"Dad, it was she who let Bai Yan suppress me and didn't let me move, so I lost."

Yes, this white smoke will be biased.

There was another burst of chickens and dogs, Ma Qiang asked Qingcheng to pull Lin Zhi away, and Lin Zhi didn't forget to turn around and make a face at Cao Ang.

Ma Qiang looked at Cao Ang's face, this little face, tsk, tsk, too miserable.
