"Guo Aduo, you deceive people too much!"

Fan Chou scolded Guo Yan in his heart for being more hateful than Li Dao, and he couldn't hold it anymore, he got up angrily, and pulled out the saber on his waist with a stab, everyone changed color when they saw this, and Guo Yan immediately jumped up, pulled out the saber, and faced Fan Chou, and the hall was tense for a while, and the atmosphere was very tense.

"Bang!"

There was another loud bang in the hall, but it turned out to be the head of the case, Li Dao, who also kicked away the case and shouted loudly:

"If you want to fight for life and death with a sword, then go to the courtyard to fight, but if you want to discuss military opportunities and not be taken advantage of by Ma Teng, put away all the swords for me!"

At this moment, the two people who drew their swords in the hall were both unruly and unruly on weekdays, and they were faintly dangerous to their position as a chariot general.

But now that Ma Teng's soldiers and horses are about to capture Youfufeng and drive directly to Chang'an City, these two people are still fighting endlessly, and they don't care about their own face, and draw their swords in the hall, which makes Li Wei's heart mixed, and his face has become more and more ugly.

Li Wei was willing to sit and watch Guo and Fan make a gap, and was annoyed by the arrogance of the two, and at the same time, an inexplicable uneasiness rose in his heart.

Ma Teng suddenly raised troops, rumors spread in Chang'an City, and Guo Yan and Fan Chou fought endlessly······ These incidents happened one after another in a short period of time, which seemed reasonable, but they were treacherous, as if there was an invisible black hand secretly pulling all this, and the spearhead was pointed at himself.

Maybe the government and the opposition are not as calm as they imagined!

Li Wei was suspicious by nature, and he was secretly uneasy in his heart, so he had to suppress his anger again, and continued to say to Guo Yan and Fan Chou:

"Brothers are against the wall, and they are insulted from the outside. Ma Teng has rushed to the door of the house, I don't care about the fight between the two of you, as long as the strategy of breaking the enemy, I have already decided, the three families each send 20,000 soldiers and horses, the grain and grass are evenly shared, and the combined army is 60,000, go to the rescue of Huaili! ”

"General Fan, you can lead the troops with my nephew Li Li and Captain Gao Shuo to help Huaili, and after I gather to the army, I will march west to join you and attack Ma Teng together!"

Before the countermeasures, Li Dao and Li Ru discussed and decided, according to the current situation of the right wind erosion, this Huaili City must be saved, and it is necessary to quickly reinforce, but the soldiers and horses of the three families are stationed in various parts of Guanzhong, even if Li Dao immediately ordered to summon the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong and allocate the grain and grass in Kyoto and various cities, it will still take a certain amount of time.

Therefore, Fan Chou, who is closest to Huaili, should take the first step and gallop to Huaili to prevent the right wind from completely falling into the hands of Ma Teng, and the west gate of Chang'an City is completely open, and there is no barrier to block it.

In order to calm Fan Chou's military morale, Li Wei also asked his nephew Li Li to accompany the army, promising that his army would arrive as scheduled, instead of tricking Fan Chou into leading troops to fight Ma Teng to the death and continue to consume his military strength.

"Okay, the military situation is urgent, I will lead the soldiers and horses outside the city tomorrow and set off from the camp!"

Although some soldiers and horses were damaged, but Fan Chou's main force still existed, Ma Teng's army attacked his station, and he was more concerned than anyone else to rescue Youfufeng, seeing that Li Dao finally stopped sitting idly by, and promised himself that he did not feel distressed about these 20,000 soldiers and horses and the supply of grain and grass, and immediately promised to send troops tomorrow.

But Guo Bian's face was gloomy, Li Dao's words just now had blocked the excuse behind him, under the pretext that the soldiers and horses were stationed in various cities, and the supply of grain and grass could not be supplied, so good, Li Dao would give him time to prepare grain and grass and mobilize the army, unless he really wanted to openly disobey the edict, completely turn his face with Li Dao and Fan Chou, and give up the Gao Shuo Department under his command, otherwise this soldier and horse, Guo Yan must come to the conclusion that this grain and grass, Zuo Fengyi must be transferred.

"Zuo Fengyi has a Qiang rebellion, and there is a Ganling in the land of the West River, and his people are eyeing him, 20,000 soldiers, horses, and grain and grass, I am afraid that they will not be able to gather in a short time!"

Guo Yan did not promise like Fan Chou, but stiffened his face and threw out his new excuse.

Seeing that the dignified general was like a merchant in the market, and deliberately excused himself, Fan Chou was immediately furious and was about to attack, but Li Wei smiled coldly, how many soldiers and horses Guo Yan had, would he not know that what Guo Yan cared about was not the Qiang and Ganling, but what he could get in the rescue of Huaili.

If he couldn't get anything, and Zuo Fengyi didn't encounter the threat of Ma Teng's invasion, why did he have to step on this troubled water.

"Then at the same time, the soldiers and horses of Ganling will also be transferred to Huaili!"

Fan Chou couldn't wait for Li Wei to speak, so he glared at Guo Yan and said, but Guo Yan sneered.

"What's the use of transferring the soldiers and horses of Ganling, who doesn't know that behind this Ganling is the power of Hedong."

"Then what are you going to do, you can't let the soldiers and horses in Hedong also come to the right to support the wind!"

Fan Chou was angry, Guo Yan was bent on shirking, and when the soldiers and horses from Hedong were transferred, his right wind had already completely fallen into Ma Teng's hands, but Li Wei heard Guo Yan's words, and he sneered and said:

"I already know the meaning of the general, after the Ma Teng rebels are pacified, I will order Yan Yan in the east of the river to return the cities in the west of the river to you, how about it?"

"That's great!" Guo Yan laughed, as if he had divided the spoils of war in Dongying in the past, and then he agreed to send troops with satisfaction.

After the compromise of the interests of all parties, the plan for the rescue of Huaili was finally finalized and needed to be implemented perfectly, and at this time, Jia Xu, who worked in Shangshutai, rushed to Li Wei's mansion by car.

Unlike Fan Chou and Guo Yan, who were on a rampage, after Jia Xu got out of the car, he came to the outside of the hall under the guidance of the servants of Li Wei's mansion.

"Jia Shangshu, you're so late, I'm done talking!"

Guo Yan has achieved his goal, and he is in a good mood, and when he sees Jia Xu who is late, he thinks of Fan Chou, who was angry just now, and he sneered and said teasingly.

Fan Chou snorted coldly, no longer looked at Guo Yan, he was in a hurry to go back to mobilize troops and horses, rescue Huaili, too lazy to pay attention to the proud Guo Yan and the others, after saying goodbye to Li Wei, who was the head of the head, he turned around with his sword, strode out of the lobby, and passed by Jia Xu, who had just entered the hall.

Jia Xu, who took off his shoes and footclothes and entered the hall, could sense the irritability on Fan Chou, who had just walked by, but he didn't pay attention to it, he had more important things at the moment.

"Why is Shangshu late this time?"

Li Wei sat down again, looked at Jia Xu who was saluting, and asked.

"Something happened in the palace, and I came here for some reason."

Listening to Jia Xu's words, Li Wei was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at Li Ru, although Shang Shutai said that he was in the palace forbidden and was in charge of government affairs, but the affairs in the palace were still monitored by Li Ru, who was in charge of the waiting, Jia Xu's face was solemn today, and something big must have happened.

Li Ru met Li Wei's gaze, and he also chuckled in his heart, saying in his heart that Jia Xu had detected the situation in Shangshutai more clearly than himself, and without waiting for him to think about it, Jia Xu had already begun to say:

"Taige has been informed that Ma Yu in the service and the counselor doctor Chong Shao and others secretly met with Zuo Zhonglang General Liu Fan, Zhishu Yushi Liu Dan, there is a suspicion of liaison benefit, Liang Zhibing, and now Ma Teng suddenly raised troops, rumors spread in Chang'an City, Taige lives in the palace forbidden, must be investigated in detail."

When Li Dao heard this, he also instantly gathered his spirit, and his gaze at Li Ru gradually sharpened, and he asked coldly:

"Is that the case?"

Li Ru also sensed Li Dao's hostility, he hurriedly left the table and came to the hall, leaned down and bowed, and said cautiously:

"Confucianism also knows about this matter, and has already sent people to monitor Ma Yu and others, because the matter is serious, and I am worried that there are still traces of the rest of the party, so I have not reported it to the general, and I have not arrested Ma Yu, Chong Shao and others!"

Li Wei's face slowed slightly, because Guo Yan was still here, and he didn't want to show too much dissatisfaction with Li Ru, but turned to look at Jia Xu:

"Shang Shu is in charge of the Taiwan Pavilion, so how do you think this matter should be handled?"

"Ma Teng was originally the leader of the rebel army, fortunately he was blessed and awarded the title of General Zhengxi, but he still did not want to serve the country loyally and plotted rebellion, and Ma Yu in the service, the doctor and others were their internal responses, and the crime was obvious, and now the people in Chang'an City are panicking, and Ma Yu, Chongshao and others should be arrested immediately, and the hidden dangers in the city should be cleared!"

"Never?"

When Li Ru heard the conversation between Jia Xu and Li Dao, he immediately objected, which made the suspicious Li Dao even more dissatisfied, and he frowned and said:

"Why not?"

Li Ru took a deep breath and said:

"I'm afraid that there are many people involved in the planning among the courtiers, if Ma Yu, Chong Shao and others are arrested at this time, it will undoubtedly alarm other courtiers who have not yet been exposed in advance, it is better to send someone to secretly monitor, follow this trace, and arrest the people who participated in the planning from top to bottom!"

Big disagreement!

Jia Xu and Li Ru's opinions are diametrically opposed, but they each have their own reasons, Li Wei also hesitated for a while, not knowing which person's advice to follow, when he wavered, he saw Guo Yan bow his head and sneer, and then asked in surprise:

"What is the opinion of the general?"

"I'm a martial artist, where can I talk about any high opinions?"

Guo Yan grinned, looked at Jia Xu and Li Ru again, and then continued:

"However, in my opinion, governing the army is no different from governing the government, and when someone in the army rebels, he is afraid of causing a mutiny, so he is directly arrested; If you are afraid that there will be your comrades, then torture him to extract a confession and let him confess the rest of his comrades! ”

After listening to Guo Yanran's words, Li Wei's eyes flashed, obviously he had already moved, he looked at Li Ru and Jia Xu, and after thinking for a while, he said categorically:

"I have made up my mind, send troops tonight to arrest Ma Yu, Chongshao and others!"

"Alas!" Li Ru saw that things were not satisfactory, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, where is the battle in the court as Guo Yan said, it is as simple as punishing a few soldiers in the barracks, which of those courtiers who hide their deeds is not intertwined and colluded with each other, when the party was in trouble, the eunuchs also wanted to torture the party members to extract confessions and torture them into confessions, but how many of those party members who were imprisoned would simply be pried open, and they did not take the opportunity to talk nonsense, and also took the opportunity to involve the other henchmen of the eunuchs.

Ma Yu, Chong Shao and others may not be able to escape, but this line is also broken, Li Ru originally planned to follow this clue to wipe out all the courtiers who planned to eradicate the Xiliang Army, but now they are so startled, except for the personnel who contacted Ma Teng and Liu Yan have surfaced, the others are still hidden underwater, and their whereabouts are unknown, and they may not act again for a long time in the future.

Thinking of this, Li Ru turned his head and glanced at Jia Xu again, he had some doubts in his heart, with Jia Xu's resourcefulness, he would not fail to see the collusion, cover-up, and collusion of the ministers in the court, but he still proposed to arrest Ma Yu, Chong Shao and others who had been exposed, what was his intention.

Does he want to compete with himself for credit and suppress his position in the Xiliang Army, or does this internal and external conspiracy involve Jia Xu himself, or does he want to use this way to cut off clues and protect a certain figure who has not yet been exposed?

Li Ru couldn't see through Jia Xu.

At night, there was unrest in the city of Chang'an. The Xiliang soldiers sent out went straight to the mansions of Ma Yu, Chong Shao, Liu Fan and others, wanting to catch them all, but they fell short. Ma Yu and others happened to gather in Du Yu's mansion to plot, and seeing that the plan was leaked, they had to rush into trouble in advance, mobilized hidden manpower, and created many fires in Chang'an City and instigated chaos among the people.

Taking advantage of the chaos in the city at night, Ma Yu, Chong Shao, Liu Fan and others also seized the Yongcheng Gate of Chang'an and fled west, and went to Youfufeng to defect to Ma Teng overnight with their soldiers and subordinates.

For this reason, Li Wei, who learned that Ma Yu, Chong Shao, Liu Fan and others had fled in chaos, jumped like thunder, and at this time he began to be nervous and frightened like Fan Chou, who lost the right Fufeng station, because in this night, he was completely convinced that there were too many people in Chang'an City who wanted to seek his life and power, and these people were carefully hidden in the shadows, colluding with each other, as long as he was not careful, while calculating others, he would also fall into their conspiracy and tricks, and become the same ruined as Dong Zhuo.

Perhaps, Jia Xu and Li Ru persuaded themselves to respect the Son of Heaven and win over courtiers and scholars, the strategy was wrong from the beginning, how could they do what even Dong Gong couldn't do?

Li Wei's eyes were red, his sword was clutched, and he couldn't sleep all night.

···

The turmoil in Chang'an City this night soon spread to Youfufeng.

Huaili City.

Ma Chao, who was only seventeen years old, stood on the city wall of Huaili, and the row of battlements on the women's wall was still stained with scarlet blood, and there were traces left by swords and arrows, but in the eyes of the young Ma Chao, this was as glorious as a stone boasting of his military exploits.

Since he can remember, Liangzhou, where he grew up, has been in the midst of war, for this first year of Zhongping, at the age of eight, he has crossed the horse with a spear, assassinated the first enemy, when the spear penetrated the body of a thin Qiang man, Ma Chao finally knew that the fathers said that killing the enemy was such a feeling.

Along with the war and fighting, what came to his ears was the reputation of those Liangren predecessors who had made a prominent career, Beigong Boyu, Li Wenhou, Song Jian, Bian Zhang, Han Sui, Wang Guo, these reckless dragons and snakes, and border heroes crisscrossing Liangzhou, Ma Chao secretly remembered them one by one after listening to them.

But it's a pity that none of these Liang predecessors were able to lead the Western Liang cavalry into Chang'an.

Because in Meiyang, in Chencang, and in Huaili, they met famous generals such as Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song.

But now, a few days ago, he just captured Meiyang, and now he stepped on the camp in Huaili, razed the place where it was said that Huangfu Song practiced martial arts, and then fought a bloody battle, taking advantage of the situation to capture Huaili.

Ma Chao held on to the battlements, smiled proudly, and raised his eyes to look at the plains in the east outside the city.

I have done what those predecessors have not done since the first year of Zhongping, but these are still not enough, and next, what my own soldiers refer to is Chang'an City, where the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty is located!

After conquering Chang'an and helping his father pacify Guanzhong, he had to go to Maoling to see in person, and take a look at his tomb in the shape of Qilian Mountain.

It is said that he raided the Xiongnu and made great achievements, and when he was named the champion Hou, he was only seventeen years old, just like himself.
