Ma Chao looked at it, it turned out that as soon as the effect of the state army was mentioned so well, it would have been better to know that Lu Dao should have said it earlier. I also wasted so many words on my own, and those added together turned out to be three words good for the state army.

"Okay, this is my Liangzhou military man, you have to go with me to train, and then there will be a difficult task handed over to you, are you afraid?" Ma Chao said loudly.

"Don't be afraid! Unafraid! "Although there are only 100 people, there are no less than 1,000 people.

Ma Chao was quite satisfied, and nodded to Pang Rou, which meant that the guards of Yumen Pass were very satisfied. He felt that like a soldier stationed here at Yumen Pass for a long time, he would definitely not be in a good mood or something.

But today, on the whole, Ma Chao is satisfied, there were not very good things before, but the soldiers of Yumen Pass still have the blood of the Liangzhou soldiers and the pride of the Liangzhou army, which Ma Chao is most satisfied with. If you don't have that, then you really don't have to do anything.

After that, Ma Chao said goodbye to Pang Rou and returned to Dunhuang with two hundred soldiers. After returning to Dunhuang, he found time to use the same method as Yumen Pass to select a hundred soldiers from the Dunhuang defenders, so that together with the one hundred soldiers brought back by Yumen Pass, there were two hundred people, and Ma Chao was ready to use these two hundred people as the main force to suppress bandits.

It is still the winter of November, and the weather is cold, so naturally it is not a good time to suppress bandits, and he believes that the results of this winter's training should be fine. Because of the winter, Ma Chao didn't train the two hundred soldiers too much, but what he had to do every day was to run around Dunhuang City for an hour from midnight to noon in the morning, which was naturally led by Ma Chao himself.

In the afternoon, Ma Chao personally practiced them, this time not to practice marksmanship, but knife skills. In order to improve the food of 200 people, Ma Chao wrote to Xuzhou to borrow money. There is no way, who makes himself not have enough money, the Mi family is naturally fully supportive, and what Ma Chao borrowed is really nothing.

So although the soldiers were still very tired in the winter, they gradually stopped complaining when they saw that Taishou also followed the training, and tried their best to teach themselves, and improved everyone's food, and had meat to eat every day. Taishou has done this, what can everyone complain about.

After a period of time, the soldiers got along well with Ma Chao, and Ma Chao's perverted memory had long remembered and recognized the names of each of the two hundred people. This also touched the soldiers, and I wonder how many Taishou in the world can do this.

Ma Chao was training soldiers every day, and the affairs of government affairs were handled by the county Cheng Zhang alone. Although Zhang Ji also complained in his heart, he understood that Ma Chao was not good at handling government affairs, and he had to train soldiers every day to prepare for big things, and this could be regarded as believing in his own ability and trusting himself. So Zhang Ji didn't have any complaints for a long time, not to mention that when he didn't keep too much before, the affairs of the county were also handled by him, but fortunately, the affairs of Dunhuang County were not too much.

As for Sima Wang, he was caught by Ma Chao every day to run. He didn't want to, but what could he do. Only when he went to inspect Yumen Pass and Yangguan could he escape the catastrophe, and as long as he was in Dunhuang at other times, it was the same as two hundred soldiers, and running was a daily must.

It was not until February of the fifth year of Guanghe that the weather was getting warmer, and Ma Chao had already increased the amount of training. Every morning I run for an hour and a half, and it is still an hour to practice and learn knife skills in the afternoon, but in the afternoon I add a field combat training. Field combat training is that Ma Chao took 200 people to a particularly remote place outside Dunhuang City, and after arriving at the place, the 200 people were divided into two groups to fight against each other.

As for the weapon, it was a broken knife that made Zhang Ji come to the rusty gap and scrapped, and Ma Chao was just talking to Zhang Ji at that time, but he didn't expect that there was really such a thing. When Ma Chao inspected the goods, he saw that they all met his own standards. At the end of the day, the knife was smeared with white ash, so it became a weapon in everyone's hands.

On this day, Ma Chao led the soldiers to return to the school field after running, and then took a break for the time being, and then continued training in the afternoon. The guards of the Taishou Mansion came to report, "Taishou, someone claiming to be your subordinate is coming!" ”

Ma Chao was overjoyed when he heard this, and Cui An's kid finally came back. Counting the days, isn't it exactly a year, and it's finally back. He used the fastest speed to return to the Taishou Mansion, and sure enough, he saw Cui An waiting for him at the gate of the Taishou Mansion, and Cui An also happened to see Ma Chao.

Ma Chao hurriedly dismounted, "Fuda!" ”

"Lord!"

Ma Chao stepped forward and gave Cui An a bear hug, he knew that now he was just too guarded, and there were few people under him, so it was not a big deal to hug Cui An. But actions like this will only become less and less in the future, and at the end of the day, there will be no more.

"Let's go inside!" Ma Chao pulled Cui An into the Taishou Mansion.

"Fuda, how have you been this year?"

He only cares about Cui An about two things, the first is safety, and now Cui An appears in front of him intact, and there is no disease in his mental state.

The second is worried that Cui An will cause trouble, which is also somewhat related to the first one. Ma Chao never dared to underestimate the people of the world, and he was more cautious in doing things. But Cui An is different, most of the time he thinks simply, and he is easy to be impulsive when he encounters problems, so it is not easy to cause something. First, he was afraid that he would kill innocent people, and second, he was afraid that he would offend someone and be retaliated against.

Yes, with Cui An's ability, the possible threat is small. But no one is truly invincible, like Xu Chu and Dian Wei that Cui An met before, it can be said that they are only stronger than Cui An, and at that time, fortunately, they were not far away or by their side and resolved peacefully. But the most powerful thing in the world is definitely not force, especially for Cui An.

Cui An smiled after hearing this, "Lord, I have had a good life this year, and my mother ...... to me."

As soon as he said this, he was interrupted by Ma Chao, he waved his hand, "Wait, Fuda, you stop first, who are you talking about...... Zhen'er? ”

Cui An nodded hurriedly when he heard this, Ma Chao looked at it, and said in his heart, little girl, you can do it, Cui An didn't have this title by my side, but it turned out that you changed your name that year. Seeing that this can't be changed, because Ma Chao can hear that Cui An's call for this master mother is exactly the same as calling his own lord. With his understanding of Cui An, as long as it is something he identifies in, there will basically be no change.

"Fuda, you go on."

"No!"

So Cui An told Ma Chao everything about his affairs in Xuzhou, but it was nothing, that is, when he, Liu Pi and Gong Du and Tie Daner arrived in Qu County, Donghai, Cui An met Mi Taigong. Mi Taigong knew that Ma Chao had an arrangement, so he asked people to hand over the letter brought by Cui An to Mi Zhen, Mi Zhen was very happy after reading Ma Chao's letter, and at the same time understood what he meant, and finally let Liu Pi and Gong both work in Mi's house, and they also agreed.

And Cui An let Mi Taigong stay in Mi Mansion, and what he did every day was to instruct Mi Fang to practice martial arts. Mi Fang is guided by him every day, and at the same time, Mi Fang also feels that her future brother-in-law Ma Chao is interesting enough, and even such a powerful subordinate as Cui An is sent to guide her.

Of course, Cui An also pointed out Liu Pi and Gong when they were fine, and after a year, the kung fu of these two boys has also made great progress. And Cui An didn't cause anything in the past year, and it was like this for a year.

These are what Cui An said, and naturally there are things he didn't say. For example, Mi Zhen carried out Ma Chao's instructions very well, managed Cui An very well, and didn't dare to drink too much wine, and he himself called Mi Zhen's housewife after the last, and there was also the matter of Liu Pi and Gong Du, Ma Chao had already known Lu Dao before.

After Ma Chao listened to what Cui An said, he was still very grateful to Mi Zhen, this little girl had an idea, but he also knew that Cui An still had something to say. And she asked the little girl for help, it can be said that she has done it and done it well, as for letting Cui An change her name, Ma Chao doesn't care very much, because this also shows Mi Zhen's feelings for herself, and he can only smile helplessly.

Ma Chao asked again how the Mi family was, and Cui An also said roughly. Mi Taigong also specially asked Cui An and Ma Chao to say that the prescription of the virtuous nephew is good, and the old man is estimated to live for two more years.

As for Mi Zhu, he was naturally busy collecting grain and storing grain at a low price, and this matter was carried out in a fairly confidential situation according to Ma Chao's intentions, and there were only a few henchmen in Mi Mansion who knew about it. Mi Zhu has already expanded the grain collection to the whole country, because this year is the first year of the great drought that Ma Chao said, so he has been speeding up the speed and scope of grain collection.

Ma Chao is grateful for the trust of the Mi family father and son, and at the same time, he has to admire the courage of the Mi family father and son. The Mi family can have today, and the efforts of each generation are inseparable, but Ma Chao also believes that the Mi family will definitely have a better development in the two generations of the Mi family's father and son.

And Mi Fang has been guided by Cui An for a year, and it can be said that his martial arts are by no means comparable to the original, so he is very grateful to Cui An and Ma Chao. also made Cui An express his gratitude to Ma Chao, and Ma Chao smiled, this Mi Fang is okay from the point of view of contact, but he is a little timid and afraid, once he is too scared, then he may not necessarily do anything.

Ma Chao hopes that he can change, after all, a manly man, standing up to the sky, he can't be afraid of this or that, what to do and what not to do, he must be clear after all.

The most reluctant, all she thought about was Ma Chao, and asked Cui An to bring a letter from her, Ma Chao opened it and smiled. Little girl, it's nothing more than saying that you miss you and you're good by yourself, and asking Ma Chao not to forget the original agreement and so on, and the last thing is to talk about the situation of the next grain.

The grain is mainly in Mi Zhu's management, but he asked Mi Zhen to mention it when he wrote a letter to Ma Chao. Ma Chao doesn't particularly care about business matters, all he cares about is when he gets the money and how much he can get, these are the things he cares about most.

"Fuda, it's just the right time for you to come back now!"

Ma Chao told Cui An about preparing to send troops to suppress bandits after a period of time, and Cui An was afraid of his thighs after hearing this: "Lord, this is great!" You don't know what to do, I've been idle this year, but I can be considered to be able to fight again, hahaha! ”

Whether it is a war or a fight, these are all fights in Cui An's eyes. And as long as the lord has not specifically explained, then he will be killed, and it seems that this time it will be a dead hand.

Ma Chao saw Cui An like that, and he could understand that Cui An was such an active and idle person. He admired Mi Zhen very much, and he didn't know what method this little girl used to make Cui An, a kid, honest for a year. It seems that when I see her in the future, I really have to ask the little girl for advice, she is really a smart and thoughtful little girl.

As for the bandits, Ma Chao would never fail to do anything to people like them. What kind of people should be ruthless and what kind of people to be light, he still knows very well in his own heart. Don't look at Ma Chao, who usually sees unevenness and often helps, but it doesn't mean that he is a soft-hearted person, Lu sees unevenness and pulls out a knife to help, which is influenced by his teacher Yan Zhong.

And in troubled times, people who are soft-hearted but not ruthless will eventually perish, and Ma Chaonaturally is not like this. He understands too well that if a superior person is not ruthless, there will only be one end.

The three bandits in Yumen Pass are powerful, the three Han brothers and the one-eyed dragon must be exterminated, as for the eighteen sons, Ma Chao means to see if they know the current affairs, if they don't know the current affairs, then it is not bad for them, just take them together.

Seeing that the conversation was almost over, Ma Chao said to Cui An: "Fuda, you rest for a while, and then go to the school with me later!" ”

"No!"

Cui An also wants to go with him to suppress bandits, so Ma Chao feels that it is still necessary to let him get acquainted with everyone now.
