Zhu really didn't let Cheng Yun wait too long, and on the second day after Cheng Yun entered Chang'an, he took his 30,000 remnants to find Ma Teng.

Ma Teng thought at first that Cheng Yun's army had come out of the city to call for battle, so he rushed out with his knights and faced Zhu directly.

Zhu was speechless, and hurriedly greeted him, Ma Teng was stunned, "Zhu Gongwei, what are you doing here?" Didn't you go to Pingyang? ”

Zhu's face darkened, "Ma Shoucheng, Cheng Wenying's troops are here to support Sanfu, have you ever seen it?" ”

Ma Teng nodded, "What?" Are you fighting them? I'm wondering, there is such a big movement on my side, there are only 30,000 people guarding three cities, but there is no one to support, I didn't expect to sanction you. ”

"Sanctions?" Zhu smiled bitterly, "Even if it's sanctions, the soldiers under my command fought with them, and there were no excessive losses in the soldiers, and even a small profit compared to them, but it was useless, the number of generals under my command was insufficient, the losses were heavy, and they urgently needed to be replenished, I thought about it, whether it was me or Ji You, they were all people who were good at strategy, and Shou Chengcheng complemented each other, I used my brainpower and you used force, and we defeated Cheng Wenying together." ”

Ma Teng's eyes rolled, he naturally knew that Cheng Yun was a hard bone, but Zhu Neng and Cheng Yun were indistinguishable, which showed that Zhu was indeed a little capable, maybe he could use it for himself, because there was no decent strategist, and he suffered an unknown loss in front of Han Sui. With Zhu cooperating with him, he is much more at ease.

Ma Teng and Zhu have not fought before, Ma Teng's understanding of Zhu is limited to the battle of the Yellow Turban Zhu shined, after Zhu came to Liangzhou, he did not violate the river water with his own well water, nor did he communicate, I don't know his strength, and he said tentatively, "Cheng Wenying is now shrinking in Chang'an City and not coming out, attacking the city, we Xiliang knights are not good at it, so we will hand it over to Gongwei?" We'll be sure to pick it up on the side. ”

Zhu frowned, "Ma Shoucheng, I really want to cooperate with you, I hope you will think about it, if you want to say that your Xiliang knights are not good at attacking cities, I believe this, but don't you know that my subordinates are also Xiliang knights?" How can it just be handed over to me? ”

Ma Teng snorted, the corners of his mouth grinned, "I think so too, so it's better for you to beat your Pingyang, I'll beat my subordinate, we continue to disperse and put enough pressure on Cheng Wenying." ”

Zhu didn't speak, he no longer had the bargaining chips to fight Cheng Yunjun alone, except for joining forces with Ma Teng, there was no second way to balance Cheng Yun.

Gritted his teeth, "I can go out of this siege person, but the siege equipment, relying on us alone, I don't know which monkey year and horse month can be fully produced, so I want to ask the soldiers under your command to help make the siege equipment." ”

When Ma Teng heard this, he smiled, "Since Zhu Liangzhou has spoken here, then my Ma Shou has achieved it."

You can nod, we all have a common enemy, that is, Cheng Wenying. Zhu Liangzhou, please come in quickly, we will talk about it in our account. ”

Zhu didn't expect Ma Teng to be so shameless, and when he heard that he didn't have to lead people to attack the city, he decisively promised to form an alliance with himself, but it was not easy to attack, so he snorted and took Hu Wuban and others into Ma Teng's big tent.

Although Ma Teng's tent is barely crowded, there are few Han people, all of them are Qiang Han people, Zhu nodded, this group of people are all masters of cavalry warfare, it would be great if they could use it for themselves.

Ma Teng introduced Zhu to the generals under his command, except for Pang De who gave Zhu Xingsalute, these people just looked at Zhu with a smile on the corner of their mouths, Liangzhou Mu and they are really people who do not belong to one side, if it were not for the common enemy Cheng Yun, they would not be rare to discuss with Zhu, the Liangzhou pastor, and it can even be said that Zhu was going to be Liangzhou Mu at the beginning, and the sincerity he took out was willing to get rid of these people.

Ma Teng didn't introduce the thoughts of the generals under his command, but just said lightly, "We will work with Zhu Liangzhou next to fight for the third assistant." Among the three auxiliaries, the most difficult to fight is naturally Cheng Wenying's Chang'an City, and the easiest is Huaili City, which is closest to us and has the fewest soldiers. We will leave the siege to Zhu Liangzhou, but Cheng Wenying's reinforcements, the brothers have to deal with it, right? ”

King Wu Ke is the king of the Qiang people, the nominal co-leader of the Qiang people, and his sister is Ma Teng's wife, Ma Chao Ma Dai's mother, who nodded when she heard this, "Yes, if the Han army comes to support, we will definitely beat them without leaving a piece of armor." ”

King Wu Ke was born in Xian Lingqiang, and the leader of Xian Lingqiang, Che Ba'er, naturally obeyed his orders, and there was nothing to question about Bai Ma Qiang's Ouli and Yue Lun, but Yue Lun asked, "If we can't fight this time, will we go back to help the tribe?" That Korean covenant is too much! ”

Ma Teng glanced at Zhu and took over, "In my opinion, if we fight with all our might, we will definitely be able to take Huaili, and then slowly plot against Chang'an and Gaoling, which is in no hurry." ”

Yue Lun wanted to say something, but the clever Oli pulled him and signaled him not to say it, Zhu saw it in his eyes, and thought in his heart, what are these people thinking?

Now that the plan has been set, Zhu didn't have the idea of being a supervisor, but just handed over the work of making siege equipment to Ma Teng and others, but where did the people on Ma Teng's side have this kind of experience, it was Zhu who taught them the technique, and they slowly learned it.

Asking Pang De to send Zhu away, Oli motioned to Yue Lun to continue asking, "The home is gone, what's the use of plotting for Chang'an?" I can't even give Luoyang to it! ”

Ma Teng sneered, "After laying Huaili, we have a springboard to continue eastward, this springboard is kept, and when we want to jump, isn't it up to us to decide?" ”

King Wu Ke nodded, "If we take Huaili, we will naturally go back to sanction it."

Make an appointment with Han Wen, let him understand that Xiliang is the Xiliang of our Qiang people, he is a Han person, the dragon has to be coiled for me, and the tiger has to lie down for me! ”

Ma Teng snorted, not caring at all about half of his Han blood, "If we don't want to give up this springboard, someone must guard it." Who is suitable? Who will defend the city? Will you? Or will you? ”

Everyone bowed their heads, Ma Teng smiled, "We are all warriors on horseback, and defending the city is not proficient, but Zhu Gongwei is different, he is a Han general, there are many Han soldiers under his command, and he has both foot and bow, and it is not a problem to defend the city, as long as we find a way to let him defend after beating Huaili, and defend it for a year and a half, and solve the problem of Han Wenyue, we can break through the division, who said that the emperor must be done by the Han people?" ”

King Wu Ke's eyes flashed, his brother-in-law has two brushes, in case he can defeat Luoyang and overthrow the emperor's rule as he said, he really can't say that he can ascend the throne and be the emperor, at that time, he must be indispensable to the position of the third duke.

What the? King Wu Ke himself didn't want to be the emperor? Yes, but King Wu Ke can achieve the status of the co-lord of the Qiang people, which shows that his political ability is still very strong, Ma Teng said that the emperor is not necessarily Han people, it is for him to listen, this is to say, this Han world, if you want to control it, you still have to have Han blood, otherwise at least now, foreign races will not have any chance.

Pound came back, Ma Teng and others also stopped the discussion of this issue, Pound is Han, Ma Teng pays great attention to the way he speaks in front of Pound, which is also one of the reasons why Pound followed Ma Teng with all his heart.

Signaling a few people to order their subordinates to make siege equipment, Ma Teng returned to his tent, Ma Chao Ma Dai was wrestling on the ground, Ma Teng coughed, attracting the attention of the two, Ma Chao took the opportunity to launch an offensive, Ma Dai, who was already two years old Ma Chao, could not react and was smashed to the ground, Ma Chao smiled and pulled Ma Dai up, "Father, you are back!" ”

Ma Dai rubbed his sore buttocks, "Father is back, every time my eldest brother doesn't let me, next time I won't compete with him." ”

Ma Chao laughed, "Who are you competing with me if you don't compete?" You can't beat any of the generals. ”

Ma Dai complained, "This is not your current situation? You can bully me, do you have the ability to argue with a few other generals? Several Qiang leaders and generals have not been in battle, and I have not seen you fight them. ”

Ma Teng coughed, "I arranged for them not to fight, in order to recharge their energy and give Cheng Wenying a surprise." No, Cheng Wenying is here, and we are ready to go all out, so we are not allowed to compete with the generals. ”

Ma Chao and Ma Dai both nodded, and Ma Teng smiled, "But you can go out of the battle, but you have to listen well, follow Ling Ming, you are not allowed to find the other party's generals to fight the generals privately, several leaders and generals let you, Cheng Wenying's subordinates will not let you!" ”
