Chapter Twenty-Four: Upper County

Ma Chao returned to his father, looked at his father Ma Teng and asked directly: Father, what's the use of you wanting a defeated general, in my opinion, it is better to kill him directly to save trouble.

Ma Teng looked at Ma Chao, who was covered in blood, and did not answer his words, but looked at Ma Chao and asked with concern: Chao'er, you are not injured, right?

Ma Chao looked down at the blood directly covered in his body, and said with a smug smile: Don't worry, father, this is all the blood of the enemy, and I have nothing to do.

Ma Teng relieved his mind at this time, remembered Ma Chao's question just now, looked at Ma Chao and replied: We have just entered the Central Plains, and we need someone who is familiar with the Central Plains, especially the Yellow Turban Army. And the person in front of him is a very suitable person.

Ma Chao nodded when he heard this, but he didn't speak.

Ma Teng turned his head and waved his hand, and the army slowly walked up again. Walk towards Kami-gun.

After the army entered the city, it quickly scattered in all directions, guarding the city gates of the four directions, and Cheng Zhiyuan's original 3,000 men had already laid down their arms and surrendered the moment the army entered the city.

Ma Teng took a group of generals behind him to the county guard's mansion, but looking at the county guard's mansion with the gate closed, Ma Teng thought about it, but still did not go in, but reflexively returned to the barracks, and ordered that the army quickly replenish grain and grass, and after three hours, the army continued to set off.

Ma Chao watched his father go around the county guard mansion and then return to the barracks, so he looked at his father Ma Teng curiously and asked: Father, why don't you live in the county guard mansion, where is it much more comfortable than the barracks.

Ma Teng looked at Ma Chao with a curious face, shook his head and said: We are now in the Central Plains, no more than when we were in Liangzhou, we must abide by our duties as courtiers here, and now someone must stare at us every move.

Hearing someone staring at him, Ma Chao looked back and looked around, Ma Teng knew what he was thinking as soon as he saw Ma Chao's movements, looked at Ma Chao and said: Don't look at it, not now, but it doesn't mean that there will be no in the future, from now on, we must pay attention to our words and deeds. There must be no move over the line.

Ma Chao listened to Ma Teng's narration, and lost interest in the Central Plains for the first time in his heart, he was full of yearning for the Central Plains, but now listening to what his father said, he felt that there were too many rules in the Central Plains, and it was far less comfortable than when he was in Liangzhou.

Three hours passed quickly, Ma Teng stood in the camp, looked at the army that had been packed, and nodded with satisfaction, this army was brought out by him, and he was also loyal to him, and his orders could be perfectly executed to the end.

Ma Teng was ready to lead the army and continue to set off, but he still had one more thing to attend to before he could go. looked at Ma Dai among the generals under his command, and shouted loudly: Ma Dai.

Ma Dai, who was originally standing in the crowd, heard Ma Teng calling him, and quickly stood up and said yes loudly, and then looked at Ma Teng,

Ma Teng looked at Ma Dai, thought about it for a while, and finally made up his mind and said: You will lead a thousand people to garrison Shangjun until you receive an order from the imperial court to lead the army to set off and chase us, as for the 3,000 soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army, they will also be left for you, you must pay attention to restraining them, and don't let them cause trouble in the township. As for Cheng Zhiyuan, prepare a horse for him and let him set off with the army.

Ma Dai, who was standing and was about to listen to Ma Teng's order, was directly on the spot after listening to Ma Teng's words, and he also wanted to follow Ma Teng south to quell the rebellion, but after years of habit, he still agreed directly without much thought, looked at Ma Teng and said firmly: Yes, the last general must guard Shangjun.

As for Cheng Zhiyuan, as a prisoner, who cares what he thinks. If he hadn't killed him in the first place, he should have thanked Ma Teng for saving his life.

Ma Teng saw that things had been arranged, so he directly ordered, and the army continued to set off, heading directly to Youzhou. The generals in the camp shouted their promises and walked out of the tent.

Ma Teng's army slowly left Shang County again, and the people of Shang County looked at Ma Teng's army that had left, and they couldn't figure out the situation at all. On this day, changes occurred one after another, first Cheng Zhiyuan rebelled, but Cheng Zhiyuan did not gain a firm foothold, Ma Teng's army came, after a big battle, Ma Teng's army entered Shangjun, but in just three hours, Ma Teng's army was about to leave again. The current people of Shangjun don't even know where Shangjun belongs at this time. Until Ma Dai asked people to re-erect the banner of Chinese characters. Only then did the people figure out the situation thoroughly.

Ma Teng didn't have time to pay more attention to the thoughts of the people of Shangjun, or if he knew, he wouldn't pay attention to when an elephant would care about the thoughts of ants.

Riding on a horse, Ma Teng was talking to Cheng Zhiyuan, and he was about to arrive in Youzhou, and Ma Teng urgently needed to know all the information about the Yellow Turban Army.

Cheng Zhiyuan looked down at the ropes tied to his body, sighed resignedly, and looked at Ma Teng to introduce the situation of the Yellow Turban Army.

The Yellow Turban Army is an army with yellow cloth wrapped around its head, and the people call them divine soldiers. It is rumored everywhere that 'the sky is dead, and the yellow sky should stand.' Years in Jiazi, the world is auspicious' slogans and slogans.

The leader of the Yellow Turban Army was Zhang Jiao, who called himself "General Tiangong," his younger brother Zhang Bao called "General Digong," and Zhang Liang called himself "General Rengong." There are a total of 36 generals in Fangqushuai, Zhang Niujiao, Huanglong, Zuo Xiao, Yu Yigen, Zhang Baiqi, Liu Shi, Zuo Mustache, Zhangba, Pinghan, Dahong, Sili, Yuancheng, Luoshi, Lei Gong, Fuyun, Baique, Yang Feng, Yu Poison, Wulu, Li Damu, Bai Huan, Zhengu, Kujiao, Zhang Mancheng, Bocai and other departments, leading the Yellow Turban Army on various hills... Because most of the Yellow Turban Army were outcasts and bandits, they had no food and clothing, and they did not know life and death, and because they had a personality cult of the great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao, the Yellow Turban Army fought extremely fiercely, and the Yellow Turban Army was extremely powerful, attacking cities and seizing cities, burning government offices, and sweeping away the powerful landlords' forts, and now it has won a great victory.

After Cheng Zhiyuan finished speaking, he looked at Ma Teng, ready to listen to what Ma Teng said, Ma Teng didn't expect that a peasant uprising could have such a big formation, and a solemnity flashed on his face, no wonder the imperial court wanted to transfer the Liangzhou army to the south. Now Ma Teng understands.

However, Ma Teng looked at the army behind him, and there was endless confidence rising in his heart. With this army in hand, what enemy cannot be swept away?

As soon as Ma Teng clamped the horse's belly, he walked up quickly, regardless of Cheng Zhiyuan, who was left behind. But Cheng Zhiyuan looked at the soldiers around him, and finally didn't dare to escape. Hurriedly urged the war horse and caught up with Ma Teng's footsteps.

Luoyang, the palace, Empress He looked at the brother in front of her and asked very politely: Brother, how is the matter you arranged. When he mentioned this matter, He Jin was angry, he had made a good arrangement, but who knew that in Liu Xie's place, it wouldn't work. It is said that Liu Xie's side also lacked military generals, but Liu Xie still arranged people to Huangfu Song.

Listening to Empress He's question, he replied directly: Things are not going well, and the people I arranged were arranged by Liu Xie to Huangfu Song, but the only good news is that where can he hold a certain amount of military power in Huangfu Song, which will be beneficial to us in the future.

Queen He listened, but instead comforted He Jin in turn: This is also very good, step by step, every step is steady, and then the power of this ** can be big enough.
