Chapter 418 Ma Chao led his troops back to Chengdu
Ma Chao was satisfied with everyone, after all, he also knew that Zhang Song brought someone with him as soon as he heard the news of Tanma, so he had to praise him for not daring to slack off himself. Of course, Ma Chao's most proud thing is not these, this is nothing more than a matter of face, he is the happiest, it is still the matter of Nanban, it is temporarily solved, this is the most important thing for him.
If you really want to talk about it, Ma Chao thinks that he has to thank Cao Cao and them, after all, without Cao Cao, Sun Ce and Liu Bei, he may not be able to spare his hands to deal with Meng Shu. Yes, sooner or later, he will be like this, even if there is no provocation from Meng Huo before, he will have to fight. But this matter must be postponed. At least if you don't say it yourself, no one will give you an idea, saying that you should take Cao Cao and them away first, and then deal with Nanban yourself, it is impossible at all.
And if there is no such thing, I may not know when I will meet Lu Xun, maybe at that time, and I will meet it soon, but is the probability really very big, who knows, anyway, I don't know-
But it was really because of Cao Cao and them, so he had the opportunity to deal with Meng Shu, and he also accepted Lu Xun to serve under his account, and finally temporarily solved the matter of Nanban. Meng Shu was honest for the time being, King Duosi of the Bald Dragon Cave died, Dong Dana died, the two of Jinhuan Sanjie and Ah Huilan completely broke away from Meng Huo, and Yang Feng annexed the Bald Dragon Cave of King Duosi and surrendered to himself. In the end, even King Mulu, he was also with himself. even let his son follow him, which is a big harvest in Nanban!
So Ma Chao is in his heart. There are no complaints at the beginning, and now there is only gratitude to Cao Cao and them. Because if you think about it carefully, you really have to thank them for this, because without them, these things of yourself would definitely have to be postponed. As for when it will be resolved, I don't really know about it. But if you want to solve it now, it can only be a pipe dream. Now, it took me months to get this done. And what about later.
If Meng Huo didn't enter the army this time, then as his strength increased in the future, although he would not stay put, he would definitely have to work harder than he did now.
So there are some things, Ma Chao has to say, it's really "time and fortune", this is fate. If it weren't for Cao Cao and them, there would really be no such things as they are now. If I say thank you to them in front of them, I don't know what kind of wonderful expressions they will have.
Seeing that the crowd was silent at this time. They all looked at themselves, waiting for their orders, and Ma Chao smiled at them and said, "Everyone." Our army can triumph today, not because of my Ma Chao's personal achievements, but because of the lives of the soldiers! There are no men from my Liangzhou Army. Without the warriors of our Liangzhou army, there would be no victory today! So I want to thank them. Thank you in advance! ”
Ma Chao is still very good at acting. At least he thinks that he is now perfect, after all, he has not wasted his time in the past few decades. Speaking of which, a lot of the time, aren't you acting? When I was a child, in front of my parents, younger brothers and sisters, in front of my teachers, in front of Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty, in front of Zhang Rang, in front of Cao Cao, in front of other princes, and now in front of my subordinates, I am not all like this-
But to be honest, Ma Chao didn't want to do this in his heart, but there was no way to do it. What Ma Chao hopes most now is that he will end the war in the world as soon as possible, and when everything is too peaceful, he will hand over the inheritance to his son Ma Huan, and he will leave here with his wife, go to various places to take a look, and then go to other places to live in seclusion, which is thousands of times better than now.
But at this time, this is definitely not possible, and when will it be like this, he has no bottom in his heart. Even if he thinks that his strength is good, after all, the Liangzhou Army is known as the first in the world, and it is indeed not blown. But Cao Cao's Yanzhou Army, Sun Ce's Jiangdong Army, and even Liu Da'er's so-called Han Army, are they all soft persimmons?
Together, even if they are themselves, they may not be able to take advantage of anything, so really, the pressure on their shoulders has always been very large, and I don't think it's very small.
And now, in fact, it is even more so, even more so! Maybe one day, after I have really won, I will be able to really relax, not now, not now.
As a result, after listening to his lord's words, the Liangzhou sergeants shouted in unison: "Mighty! Mighty! ”
Ma Chao looked at his soldiers, he couldn't help nodding, then raised his hands and shouted: "Everyone, stop, let's go back to Chengdu together!" ”
"No!"
After the soldiers finished shouting, Ma Chao smiled and said to Zhang Song and them: "Ziqiao, everyone, if you have a heart, let's go back to Chengdu together!" ”
"No!"
The heavy people said in unison, and then Ma Chao was in the front, and the others, including Zhang Song, followed their lord's side, half a body behind, and they also followed him on horseback and headed towards Chengdu City together. But at this time, it slowed down, it can be said that everyone is already very slow, after all, Ma Chao still has a few words to say to Zhang Song. Yes, I want to say it here, and as for the time after entering the city, there are other things, but at this time, there is also a time to say.
As a result, he didn't say a few words, and saw that Zhang Song couldn't help nodding, but before he could say anything, he had already arrived at the south gate of Chengdu.
At this time, Zhang Song said: "Lord, this is really fast, this is not already at the gate of the city!" ”
Ma Chao smiled when he heard this, "This is talking to people, chatting while walking, but it won't make people feel tired!" ”
When Zhang Song heard it, it was true, talking to others while talking, you would definitely not feel tired. Although he didn't know what the reason was, he knew what his lord said, and it was indeed good.
"That's true, my lord, and my subordinates think so!"
Ma Chao smiled and said: "Okay, everyone, let's go to the city, and the state pastor's mansion will talk!" ”
"No!"
Everyone knows in their hearts that this lord has something to say to his own people. But think about it, my lord's victorious return is a triumphant victory of the army, so there are many things that my lord wants to tell his own people-
Don't say anything else, let's just talk about the war in Nanban, especially the final result, what happened to Meng Shou and them, these Zhang Song they really don't know much. But what they know is that their lord will definitely talk to them in a while.
If the generals who followed their lord knew the situation, but they almost didn't know anything. Because Zhang Song and the others also understand that their lord must say this. And today is the triumph of the army, so a banquet must be arranged in the evening, and they understand this Zhang Song better.
Everyone followed Ma Chao into Chengdu City, to say that because today is the triumph of Ma Chao's army, so the city gate is already under martial law at this time, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. The people of Chengdu really didn't know what the situation was before, but when they saw Zhang Song, the Yizhou pastor, following behind a person, some people already knew that Ma Chao was back.
Some people know Ma Chao's current official position, but most of them really don't know. However, although he didn't know that he was a hussar general of the Han Dynasty, he also knew that this Yizhou was the place under his jurisdiction and the territory of other people. also knew that he had led his troops to Nanban before, so now, this is a victorious return-
The people don't know about that, and they don't know anything. They only know that in the past ten years under Ma Chao's jurisdiction over Yizhou, Yizhou has indeed developed well, and this is enough.
I think ordinary people are indeed asking for much. Originally, there was no war in Yizhou before, and it was relatively peaceful, so even if it was occupied by Ma Chao, the people had no resistance to Ma Chao. I thought that although Liu Zhang and Liu Jiyu did not have any great treachery and evil to the people, he did not have anything particularly good about the people.
But Ma Chao is different, at least after he seized Yizhou, in order to win the hearts of the people, he lowered the tax by more than half at once. That's more than half, and it is estimated that it is a wealthy army like the Liangzhou Army that can drive out such a thing. If it were replaced by a team like Cao Cao's Yanzhou army, which was short of military rations, would it be possible for him to reduce his taxes so low?
Therefore, the taxes are low, and there have been no natural and man-made disasters in Yizhou in recent years, and the wind and rain are smooth, and the lives of the people are naturally higher than those of Liu Zhang. So for them, can they still not read the benefits of Ma Chao. (To be continued......)
