Half a month later.

During this time, the armies of Ma Teng and Han Sui, because Qin Yin led the army, could no longer move forward, and were blocked here, stalemate with each other.

Between the two sides, in the past half a month, there have also been several battles, each with its own victory and defeat.

And Qin Yin didn't think about the idea of forcibly taking down Ma Teng and Han Sui, not completely nothing, but there was no suitable time, after all, there was no good time, forcibly attacking Ma Teng and Han Sui's camp, the loss would be very large, and the gains would outweigh the losses.

Therefore, the idea of forcible attack was abandoned.

It's just that people are sent to call for war from time to time, and Ma Teng and Han Sui also send people to call for war.

There is a stalemate between the two sides.

At the same time, during this period of time, Qin Yin found out the route of Ma Teng and Han Sui, the army to transport grain and grass, and carried out an attack.

But only half of the grain and grass were burned, and the other half was not completely burned.

There was that one attack.

Ma Teng and Han Sui also strengthened the defense of transporting grain and grass, and there was no chance to attack, even if they attacked forcibly, they would not be able to get any benefits, so they had to give up.

However, even if half of the grain and grass were burned, it was enough to make Ma Teng and Han Sui uncomfortable.

You must know that the land of Liangzhou is not rich in grain, and Ma Teng and Han Sui do not have much grain in stock, and now they are still marching with an army of 100,000, which requires a lot of consumption.

Gradually, there is not enough food and grass.

......

In Marten's tent.

"Brother Shoucheng, now that the grain and grass are gradually decreasing, and it takes time to transport the grain and grass from Wuwei, and it also needs to guard against the attack of the Qin army, how is this good?" Han Sui frowned and said.

Originally, he thought that he would unite with Ma Teng to raise troops, and Qin Yin wanted to attack the land of the Southern Barbarians, so he would easily take Tianshui Pass and then seize the land of Chang'an.

But now, it is a stalemate with the Qin army here, and it cannot continue to move forward.

And the most important thing, and he didn't say anything to Ma Teng.

That is, he would instigate Ma Teng to raise troops together, and there was a certain reason, but now the letters sent out have not received any reply.

If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have been worried.

Hear Han Sui's words.

Ma Teng also frowned.

He also did not expect that it would become the current situation, and the most important thing is that they do not have enough food and grass, and there is no food and grass, which is a big problem.

There is no food or grass.

There is no need for the Qin army to come to attack, and the soldiers and horses under their command will be in chaos first.

Although during this period, they and the Qin army had their own victories and defeats, but when they counted, they lost more than they won.

After all, the generals under Qin Yin's command, Huang Zhong, Xu Chu, and Dian Wei are all higher than his son Ma Chao's force value, and as for Zhang Ren and Yan Yan, they are not weaker there.

Now he also has a retreat in his heart.

Because he knew that now that they were dealing with Qin Yin, they no longer had any advantage on their side, and if they continued, it would be a problem if they wanted to retreat.

Come to think of it.

Ma Teng said: "Brother Wenyue, now that the enemy is strong and I am weak, why don't you retreat first, and then regain your strength when you go back, wait for a good time, and then plan Chang'an." ”

He also said what he thought in his heart.

Hear the words.

Han Sui glanced at Ma Teng and said, "Brother Shoucheng, why bother to increase the morale of others and destroy your own prestige?" Although our army is short of food and grass, it can still support half a month, as long as during this time, break through the Qin army and take Tianshui Pass, we can still complete the purpose of waiting. ”

"But...!"

Before Ma Teng could speak, he was stopped by Han Sui.

Han Sui waved his hand and continued: "I know that this is a bit risky, but it is not the case, how can I achieve great things, Kuang supports the Han family, and the investigation report under my command has already explored the grain transportation route of the Qin army, if we can rob the grain and grass of the Qin army, we will be more sure." ”

Originally, he came to find Ma Teng to discuss things, just to see if Ma Teng would have a good way to deal with the Qin army.

Unexpectedly, Ma Teng put forward the idea of withdrawing from the army.

This made him feel a little unhappy, and it was clear that if he retreated, he would no longer have a chance to enter Chang'an, and Qin Yin would not let him go like this.

Now in the land of the Southern Barbarians, the army of 80,000 commanded by Zhao Yun has been defeated and retreated, and it is only a matter of time before the land of the Southern Barbarians is taken.

Wait until the army led by Zhao Yun took the land of the Southern Barbarians and joined Qin Yin.

Even if they retreat to the land of Liangzhou now, Qin Yin will definitely take advantage of this incident to send troops to attack them.

Therefore.

He also told his subordinates the route of the Qin army's grain transportation.

As long as the problem of food shortage is solved, it is not without a turning point.

The reason why he didn't say it at the first time was because he had some careful thoughts, and he wanted to swallow it alone, and with grain and grass, he was also able to win over the soldiers and horses under Ma Teng's command.

Of course, he would not say such a thing.

"Brother Wen Yue, do you want to hijack the grain and grass of the Qin army?" Ma Teng frowned.

"Exactly!"

Han Sui replied without any hesitation, no matter whether Ma Teng had a good proposal or not, he had the intention of hijacking the grain and grass of the Qin army.

"But the matter of food and grass is the top priority, how could the Qin army act carelessly, it is hard to guarantee that it will not be the conspiracy of the Qin army!" Ma Teng said worriedly.

He is a cautious person, and at such a time, the detectives under Han Sui can know the grain transportation route of the Qin army, and he feels that there is a big problem.

Han Sui said disapprovingly: "I know what Brother Shouchun means, and I also had suspicions about this matter, but more than ten days ago, the report under my command had already found out, because I was suspicious, so I didn't say it, but I still sent someone to monitor it all the time, and in more than ten days, the Qin army also transported grain and grass several times, all the way to the Qin army camp." ”

"Therefore, I can confirm that this is true and not a ploy of the Qin army."

Truly.

The report of his command was not that he had discovered the grain transportation route of the Qin army in the past two days, but that it had been more than ten days, and at first, he also thought that this was the Qin army's strategy.

After all, the Qin army had attacked their grain transport team before, and knew that they were short of food.

But it's been more than ten days.

The grain and grass of the Qin army, as always, passed through there, and there were heavy troops transporting it, which can be seen that it was indeed the route of the Qin army's grain transportation, and it was not a conspiracy.

And that's exactly what happened.

The thought of robbing grain rose in his heart.
