Seeing that Ma Chao had already rejected the three people he had proposed in a row, Du Ji didn't say anything about it, as if all this was not wrong. In fact, the truest thoughts in his heart may not be different from Ma Chao, so ......

"Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao Liu Jingsheng, his person is a member of the Han family, and now he is in Jingzhou, I don't know what he does?" Du Ji continued.

And Ma Chao still shook his head with a smile, and said in his heart that he Liu Biao Liu Jingsheng, although it seems to be good to run Jingzhou now, but it is also a partnership with others. Besides, even Nanyang is still in the hands of Yuan Highway, although there are some special circumstances in this, but the facts are the facts, and there is nothing to change at least for the time being.

"Liu Jingsheng is a person, the dog ear of the household, there is no need to worry!"

After listening to what Ma Chao said, Du Ji almost stopped laughing. But thinking about it, it seems that this is indeed the case, and he, Liu Jingsheng, really does not fully grasp the power of Jingzhou, so he is constrained by the Cai family, how much can he do in the future.

At this time, Du Qi's eyes rolled, and then he asked Ma Chao, "So Meng Qi thinks, who is a hero in this world?" ”

In fact, Du Ji won't talk about it here, of course, there are many people who haven't said it yet, but Du Ji just deliberately wanted to ask Ma Chao. Because in his opinion, since these few can't get into the eyes of this Liangzhou pastor, then the rest of the people should have them.

Ma Chao smiled, "Yanzhou Mu Cao Cao Cao Mengde, Xuzhou Mu Liu Bei Liu Xuande, and Sun Ce and Sun Bofu who are still fighting in Jiangdong are all worthy of today's heroes!" ”

Of course, there are still some differences in this, because in Ma Chao's cognition, Cao Cao is still the traitor, and Liu Bei is the hero, as for Sun Ce, he is a hero.

Du Ji heard what Ma Chao said. He was thoughtful. If he only talked about Cao Cao and Cao Mengde, then he had also thought about it, and Ma Chao should be able to talk about him. However, that Xuzhou Mu Liu Bei Liu Xuande, as well as his son Sun Jian Sun Ce and Sun Bofu, Du Ji didn't feel anything. Of course, now the two of the latter are just emerging in the world, so Du Yi naturally doesn't know much about them. It's just hearsay, and I've learned something.

So how could he compare with Ma Chao, the person who opened the golden finger, so he said: "Meng Qi thinks so? ”

Ma Chao smiled: "Yes, but the younger brother thinks so." I should be able to match them! ”

When Du Ji heard this, he laughed. If your heart says it, you just say it directly, and you are also a hero in the world. However, judging from the rumors in the world, Liu Bei, Liu Xuande and Sun Ce, Sun Bofu don't need to say much. But that Cao Cao, Cao Mengde, and his people, your Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi's reputation may not be smaller than his people. Maybe in some states and counties, even more than others. That's right.

"What does Brother Bohou think?"

Du Ji laughed when he heard this. But nothing more was said about it. He knows Ma Chao's intentions, saying that the heroes of the world are Cao Mengde and a few of them, and he is also one of them. Therefore, if you take refuge in them and take refuge in yourself, why bother to seek the near and far.

And Yan Yan and the others also heard what their lord said at this time, and they all laughed secretly in their hearts. The heart said that his lord was just going around the bush and saying that he would let Du Ji serve under his account.

Sure enough, Ma Chao continued: "I wonder if Brother Bohou can go with his junior brother to meet the world's heroes for a while?" ”

At this time, Ma Chao had already directly invited Du Yi to join his Liangzhou army, and what he needed was for Du Yi to express his attitude and see his worst attitude. And Du Ji listened. He was indeed tempted for a long time, after all, what Ma Chao said was very reasonable. Indeed, it is better to serve under the account of others than to serve under the account of Ma Mengqi. And he also knew that this should be regarded as the most difficult temptation, so he should decide to stay or go.

I saw Du Ji quickly stand up, and then came to Ma Chao's approach, and saluted Ma Chao: "Jingzhao Duling Du Ji Du Bohou, meet the lord!" Thanks to the lord's refusal to give up, his subordinates are willing to work together with the lord and the heroes of the world! ”

Ma Chao hurriedly helped Du Ji, and he said: "In the future, the world will have the name of your Jingzhao Du Bohou!" He will not regret what he did today! ”

After speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled. And several other people also came to congratulate both sides, as for this time, Ma Chao can no longer call Du Ji Bohou brother, and Du Ji can no longer call Ma Chao Meng Qi.

At this point, Ma Chao's trip to Du Ling was a complete success, Du Yi joined his account and became his subordinate, and his overall strength increased a little more-

Ma Chao and they stayed in Duling's Duqi Mansion for two days, and then returned to Chang'an with Duji. After all, the two counties of Fufeng and Jingzhao have just been taken now, but Sili and Feng Yi, Hedong, Hongnong, Hanoi and Henan have not yet arrived, of course, Ma Chao is not so anxious, because now in addition to coming to Sili, Cao Cao has not come over, so there are too few people and it is boring.

For Ma Chao, it was easy to win two counties, which is already a very good result. And at this time, you can't force Li Dao Guo Yan and them too tightly, the so-called thing is the opposite, Li Dao Guo Yan and they will naturally have someone to deal with. And all he has to do is to wait and see what happens, and wait for Cao Cao to come to the division, and then it will not be too late for him to enter the army.

However, Ma Chao obviously overestimated Li Dao and Guo Yan, they took the emperor to go very slowly, and there were constant small battles during the period, Ma Chao frowned when he heard the information on the other side. The second year of Xingping is almost over, and they are still in Hongnonghuang, Ma Chaozhi said, now he can only wait for next year before he can enter the army-

There are two flowers, one on each branch. However, it was said that Li Dao, Guo Yan and Zhang Ji led the troops to catch up with Liu Xie's team, and originally thought that Li Dao meant, but now the army should be let go quickly, so that it is better to arrive in Luoyang as soon as possible. However, he still overestimated the health of a group of old guys, especially when it was still June and July, and the weather was too hot, so the soldiers were better, but Yang Biao and their old guys, and even Liu Xie, couldn't bear it.

There is no way, Li Dao can only slow down the army, but in this way, the grain and grass that needs to be consumed every day is really a lot, so he was so angry with Li Dao that he squeezed the food of Liu Xie and a few ministers to a pitiful point, although he was not too hungry, but this affected the speed of the army's march. But even so, Li Dao felt that it should be so, so he would rather let the army slow down than give Liu Xie too much food.

After Li Wei and the others heard that Ma Chao had brought the Liangzhou army from Longxian to kill Ben Sili, they were all happy, they ran fast, or they would have faced up with Ma Chao's Liangzhou army. As a result, within a few days, Fufeng was lost, which was expected by them, and Fufeng had no strength to defend it.

After another period of time, Chang'an was lost, and Jingzhao was also occupied by Ma Mengqi's Liangzhou army. Li Dao and the others were scared this time, after all, Ma Chao's Liangzhou army was not too far away from him now, so he let the army speed up, and at this time he also gave Liu Xie and them a lot of food, but Ma Chao suddenly stopped moving, as if he was stationed in Fufeng and Jingzhao, I don't know what Lu Dao was thinking.

There was no movement on Ma Chao's side, and Li Dao was relieved, so the speed of the army's march slowed down again.

And what happened during this period greatly reduced Li Dao's strength, but he couldn't do anything.

First of all, Yang Feng, who had previously worked under him, defected and took refuge in Liu Xie. Don't think it's a trivial matter, this makes Li Dao angry, but there is nothing he can do. Because Yang Feng has been under his account for many years, and he is quite prestigious among many soldiers in the army, he defected to Liu Xie, not alone, but with his subordinate Xu Huang, he took seven or eight thousand men and horses to take refuge in Liu Xie, so can Li Dao not be angry.

But his original strength had been reduced a little before, and now Yang Feng has taken refuge in Liu Xie, so Li Dao's strength has decreased a lot, and now there are a little more than 40,000 people left. Although he still has the most people, Li Dao also feels that he actually has a big crisis.

Guo Yan still has 20,000 men and horses, and Zhang Ji also has 10,000 men and horses here, 20,000 people and horses in Hongnong, Yang Feng who betrayed him also has seven or eight thousand men and horses, and the emperor's descendant Dong Cheng, he has 5,000 men and horses, so Li Dao knows that if these people are united, then he may not be able to defeat others. Therefore, Li Dao didn't dare to offend these people easily, after all, he couldn't let them unite together.

And Guo Yan is not much stronger than Li Wei, originally he planned very well at the beginning, and was ready to find an opportunity to secretly rob the emperor, and then lead the troops back to Yi County, but unfortunately, "people are not as good as heaven", now Jingzhao is occupied by Ma Chao, where can he go back. Besides, don't look at Li Dao, his current strength has indeed weakened a lot, but can he really snatch the emperor from him, Guo Yan actually has no confidence in this.

However, what Guo Yan didn't dare to do doesn't mean that others don't dare either. Guo Yan is such a stupid × under his account, and he is really in the same mind as Guo Yan. As a result, on a dark and windy night, Guo Xi's subordinate Wu Xi led his troops to secretly burn down Liu Xie's residence and wanted to rob him. In his opinion, since Li Dao and Li Zhiran could hold the emperor hostage before, why can't he do it.

But as a result, it is conceivable that he was killed by Li Dao, Zhang Ji, Yang Feng and Dong Cheng. This time, Guo Yan let his subordinates hurt him, and he was unlucky, "the rafters that came out of the house rotted first". Although it is said that he Guo Yan did not take any action, but it was his subordinates who did something, so this time it can be regarded as a public outrage. Even if everyone knows that Lu Dao has nothing to do with Guo Yan, but if they want to add to the crime, several people point the finger at Guo Yan.

Guo Yan said that he was suffering, and he couldn't help it, knowing that he had committed public anger, he let his subordinates put it on the table. But what can I do, he has lost a lot now, so he is attached to Li Dao again, and he can't help it. (To be continued......)
