Ma Teng was actually forced to rebel against the Han at the beginning, but after being appeased by Huangfu Song's people, Ma Teng rejoined the arms of the Han.

And held a more important position.

Life is also passable.

Maten is easily satisfied.

However, later, Dong Zhuo, the pastor of Liangzhou, who was in charge of Xiliang, and Han Sui, the assassin of Liangzhou, had a conflict.

Han Sui, in fact, the main reason why these people rebelled against the Han is not because they have no feelings for the Han.

On the contrary, these people have a deep affection for Dahan.

But Dong Zhuo's existence contributed to Han Sui's little by little affection for the Han Dynasty.

Dong Zhuo is ambitious, he climbed step by step, climbed to the status of Xiliangmu, in the early years, there was not much ambition, but as the power of the Han Dynasty gradually weakened, the Central Plains gradually became a land of war.

The Han Dynasty has long been unable to control the princes of various places.

In Dong Zhuo's eyes, he didn't care more and more about Dahan.

Dong Zhuo wanted to occupy Western Liao as his base first, and then seize a larger territory step by step.

However, the first problem in front of Dong Zhuo was Han Sui, who was the history of Xiliang Thorn.

Although Dong Zhuo is the nominal Liangzhou pastor, Han Sui is also a thorn in this place.

There is not much difference between the official positions of the two, and the strength of the army is naturally similar.

If Han Sui's forces can be annexed, then Dong Zhuo will definitely become the most powerful warlord in the Xiliang region and even the entire north in one fell swoop.

In this way, Dong Zhuo took the lead in attacking Han Sui on the grounds that Han Sui colluded with the Qiang people and wanted to rebel.

In such a big battle, Dong Zhuo deployed in advance, specifically targeting Han Sui, in order to defeat Han Sui directly before Han Sui could react.

Killing Han Sui caught him off guard, but Dong Zhuo was obviously a little arrogant. Han Sui not only had tens of thousands of Qiang soldiers and horses, but also had a righteous brother Ma Teng.

Ma Teng's eldest son, Ma Chao, in this battle, showed great bravery, although he was only sixteen years old, he was killed by Dong Zhuo's men and fled in embarrassment, and even Dong Zhuo died in the hands of Ma Chao.

As soon as Dong Zhuo died, Liangzhou naturally fell into the hands of Han Sui.

Originally, Han Sui still had a good impression of the Han Dynasty, but after such an incident as Dong Zhuo, Han Sui knew that these Han people could not be trusted, and they would come to beat them at any time, after all, Han Sui and the others had stains on them.

After all, he betrayed the Han Dynasty before, and launched an uprising with the Qiang people.

Now Dong Zhuo is coming to them for trouble because of this matter.

Han Sui had already decided in his heart that the imperial court would always use this matter to hold them responsible.

simply didn't wait for the court to come to him for trouble, and simply rebelled again.

Only when he is strong will the court be afraid of it and dare not deal with him easily.

This is why Han Sui rebelled again.

However, Han Sui wanted to start a war, but the other horses under his command were unwilling.

Ma Teng is one of them.

Originally, his petty officials did a good job, and he lived a very good life.

However, some wars were launched, so that Ma Teng had to return to the battlefield when he was old.

That's not something Ma Teng is willing to do.

Han Sui wanted to lead troops to attack Chang'an several times, but Ma Teng tried his best to dissuade him.

After Liu Bei found out about this matter.

Liu Bei immediately sent his strategist Cheng Yu to Ma Teng's account to lobby Ma Teng.

Liu Bei is very smart.

On the one hand, he sent people to Ma Teng's military camp to lobby Ma Teng.

wants Ma Teng to return to the arms of the imperial court.

On the other hand, Liu Bei sent someone to inform Han Sui of the news that he had sent someone to Ma Teng's military tent to lobby Ma Teng.

In this way, regardless of whether Ma Teng is willing to take refuge in Liu Bei in the end.

In the Xiliang army, there must be chaos.

If Ma Teng is willing to take refuge in himself, then take the opportunity to launch a war of extermination against Han Sui. With the help of Ma Teng and the soldiers and horses under Ma Teng, Liu Bei had the strength to eliminate Han Sui.

If Ma Teng was unwilling to take refuge, then Liu Bei sent someone to tell Han Sui that Ma Teng and Liu Bei were colluding.

It will also cause Han Sui's suspicion of Ma Teng.

Left and right, it is good news for Liu Bei.

Not to mention, Liu Bei's plan was indeed successful.

Cheng Yu arrived at Ma Teng's military camp and talked to Ma Teng about Liu Bei's desire to recruit An Ma Teng, recruit Ma Teng to become a general of the chariot cavalry, and dominate the entire Xiliang, Ma Teng was indeed moved.

It's just that Ma Teng is still a righteous person, and Han Sui here is his sworn brother, and it is impossible for Ma Teng to sell his sworn brother for his own future.

So in the end, Ma Teng politely rejected Cheng Yu's proposal.

Cheng Yu pretended to be disappointed and left from Ma Teng, and told Han Sui the news in a blink of an eye.

Han Sui didn't know that Ma Teng had contact with Liu Bei's people.

However, when Liu Bei's men told him the news, they immediately became angry.

Originally, he didn't believe that Ma Teng would abandon him and join Liu Bei.

After all, in Han Sui's heart, he still trusts Ma Teng, a righteous brother, but after Han Sui thought of some of Ma Teng's actions in recent days, he began to have some doubts.

Han Sui said that he wanted to attack Chang'an City, but Ma Teng stopped him.

Han Sui said that he led his troops and horses to continue to expand the results of the battle and launched an attack on some surrounding towns.

Marten stopped again. If it is said that if the battle line is stretched too long, it is easy to be broken by the soldiers and horses of the imperial court one by one, and when the time comes, the battle situation will not be good for them.

Although Han Sui can't listen to his words and plans as a righteous brother, he generally respects his opinion.

But now I heard someone report that Ma Teng actually had contact with Liu Bei's people.

In Han Sui's heart, he had some prejudice against Ma Teng, and he immediately took someone to Ma Teng's residence and asked whether Ma Teng really had dealings with Liu Bei's people.

Han then went to Ma Teng's camp and asked Ma Teng.

was asked by Han Sui about Liu Bei, Ma Teng was immediately a little embarrassed, he didn't know how this matter was known by Han Sui.

First, I thought about covering it up.

But the more Ma Teng covered it up like this, the more suspicious Han Sui became that Ma Teng and Liu Bei really had a plan.

On the surface, Han Sui and Ma Teng did not, and continued to study this matter.

Ma Teng denied it, and Han Sui was naturally not good, and insisted that Ma Teng really colluded with Liu Bei.

Then he left Ma Teng sullenly.

But as soon as Han Sui left, he immediately gathered his soldiers and horses, planning to incorporate all Ma Teng's soldiers first.

In Han Sui's heart, he had already decided that Ma Teng was going to be unfavorable to him.

However, Han Sui's action was not successful, and his men and horses leaked the news, so that this matter was known to Ma Teng in advance.
