Chapter 78: The coalition forces marched together to protect the north
Hanging River was sent to the Ma family by his father since he was a child, at that time the lord had not been canonized as the general of the West Protector, but a rich man, in order to protect his money, the Lord wantonly attracted the hearts of the people to recruit troops and horses, and gradually the number of people and soldiers actually formed a righteous army, becoming the most powerful force in the West Protector.
He became the master's personal entourage from a subordinate, and he watched the lord be extremely lucky to repel the invasion of the Western Xia Kingdom, and saw that he loaded twenty carriages of gold and silver treasures and gave them to the magnates of the Jin Kingdom! And then, of course, he was canonized by the Emperor of Jin as the general of the West Protector! Of course, when the old man married ten little wives, he was also fortunate to be there.
He knows better than anyone how shrewd and cunning the old man is, and how strong his heart is, but now he has seen the old man vomiting blood with his own eyes.
It was Gao Hongyi who was angry with him, and he didn't doubt that this young general of the Northern Protector had this ability. After all, when he persuaded Gao Hongyi, he was seen through, and this was the first time he was seen through! And it's debunked on the spot! His legs were shaking with fright, for fear that he would not be able to make a deal when he went back. Gao Hongyi finally went, and the lord made him the chief butler of the Ma Mansion in order to reward him. Therefore, Ma Fu now has big and small things arranged by him.
Now that I think about it, this young man is indeed not simple, otherwise the old man would not have wanted to have him or even killed him at that time!
Young Master Ma Chuang has already come to urge him several times, and Hanging River took Lang Zhong, who has the most skilled medical skills in the West Guard, and Ma Si ran over quickly.
"Please come in! The young master was in a hurry. The hanging river opened a thick shield for him, and the young master Ma Chuang was waiting there with a anxious face, and when he saw them coming in, he hurriedly took Lang Zhong to the inner room to treat the master.
"Second master, the master is okay!" Hanging River asked the second master Ma Yuan who was standing aside. "I really hope that the master has nothing to do, otherwise what would we do!"
"Big brother has always been in good health, so it's not going to be good." Ma Yuan replied.
"Gao Hongyi, this thief, I didn't expect to humiliate the master like this! His heart was so dark. ”
Ma Yuan replied thoughtfully, "This world is already cruel, and if he is a good person, he will not be able to sit firmly in the high position of the Northern Protector General!" ”
Hanging River pretended to be puzzled, "But he's a little aggressive, too vicious!" Second master, think about it, the master once thought about killing him, but that was also because he didn't want to submit to the master! He didn't thank the master for not asking for his life in the end, but instead sent troops to hunt down the master, and also designed to deceive the master and sell the master's beautiful concubine to a poor person as a wife.
The old man didn't care about him, he sent a letter asking for help, and the old man immediately sent someone to help him, he actually used this vicious way to repay the master, if the old man was really angry with him today, the villain fought for this old life to let Gao Hongyi die without a place to be buried! ”
Ma Yuan turned his head and looked at him seriously, and said lightly, "Hanging River, no wonder the eldest brother made you a big housekeeper!" ”
Hanging River was about to ask him what he meant by this, but he heard the sound of people in the inner room, and the two of them went in to take a look, and it turned out that Ma Tangfeng had woken up.
At this moment, Ma Tangfeng was lying in the arms of his beautiful concubine with a pale face, and Chong Langzhong said, "Ben will be fine, you go back!" ”
After Lang Zhong walked out, Ma Tangfeng sat up from the bed with difficulty, and then asked everyone to go out, leaving only Ma Yuan and Ma Chuang.
"Ask clearly, what the hell is going on?" Ma Tangfeng asked.
Ma Yuan calmly replied, "It's all clear, after our reinforcements arrived at the place, they were taken to a dilapidated village by a person named Gao Hongyi for dinner, and a very rich banquet was set up to entertain them." But just as they were eating, a group of floweries who came out of nowhere to ask for food, rushed up to them, beat and scolded them, robbed them of their food, stripped them of their clothes, and drove them away.
Their clothes were stripped and they wanted to go to White Horse City to find the people of the North Protector, but they didn't expect that after this group of people who wanted to eat and drink enough, they put on their clothes and caught up with them and beat them up again, driving them to our territory before stopping. Later, they became like that. ”
Ma Chuang was puzzled, "So, this matter has nothing to do with Gao Hongyi?" ”
"At least it seems like this now, but I didn't expect Beigo to be so barren, even called Hanako everywhere." Ma Yuan replied calmly.
Ma Tangfeng spit out the ginseng soup in his mouth and said, "What is called Huazi, it was all arranged by Gao Hongyi!" He deliberately did this to fight back against the reinforcements we sent in the past! He stripped off not the clothes of the reinforcements, he stripped off the clothes of Lao Tzu! He made Lao Tzu lose face in front of so many people, and made us think that this matter had nothing to do with him?! Then we're really stupid!
"Big brother, dissipate your anger!" Ma Yuan said with concern.
"I can't get rid of this anger." Ma Tangfeng glared at his reddened eyes and said, "Gao Hongyi, the illegitimate son of Gao Yuanhe, Lao Tzu wanted to keep him for two more days, but he didn't expect him to kill himself!" ”
Ma Chuang said, "Father, I'll lead the troops over to destroy the Northern Protector and scrape Gao Hongyi now!" ”
"No!" Ma Yuan stopped and looked at Ma Tangfeng, "Big brother, Gao Hongyi is deliberately showing weakness, obviously he has already seen something, we still have to act according to the plan, don't be impulsive!" ”
Ma Tangfeng said calmly, "What is impulsiveness, not being sure that brute force is impulsive." We have come together with Xixia now, with the help of Xixia, he Gao Hongyi is no matter how shrewd he is, he is not a piece of meat on our chopping board! ”
Ma Yuan reminded, "Eldest brother, my younger brother has just received a flying pigeon message from General Li of Western Xia, saying that the cities of the Northern Protector are closed, and there are not many villagers to kill in the countryside!" They are not profitable, and they are about to consider withdrawing their troops! ”
"Is there such a thing?" Ma Tangfeng was a little unconvinced, and Ma Yuan hurriedly handed him the handwritten letter of the commander of the Western Xia cavalry.
After reading it carefully, Ma Tangfeng thought about it for a while and threw the letter aside, "A bunch of wild dogs that can't be fed, this is threatening us!" ”
"However, at present, we can only rely on them, and we must not let them leave Beihu until we eliminate Gao Hongyi!"
Ma Tangfeng nodded, "That's natural, but now our plan has to be advanced." Gao Hongyi is scheming and can't bear it? I want to see if he can hold on to his lair when the Western Xia Kingdom besieges his lair! ”
"What do you mean, big brother?"
Ma Tang said fiercely, "You go and contact General Li and let them attack the northern moat with all their might!" If we seize the North Protector and catch Gao Hongyi, we will not only dedicate half of the land to the North Protector, but also give them five carts of gold! ”
Ma Chuang stood up at this time, "Father, then when are we going to attack Beigo?" ”
"Attack with the cavalry of the Western Xia Kingdom, completely wipe out the northern protection, and capture Gao Hongyi alive!"
