Zhang Ji smiled, Henan is like a hot potato, Zhu Jun, Li Dao and others don't want it, so they gave it to Zhai Hao, what else is worth fighting for?

He just used this incident as a bargaining chip to bargain with the Hedong side, striving to take a larger share of Zhu Jun's soldiers, grain and grass.

As for how Hedong garrisoned the army and managed Henan, it was not his concern.

He only knew that this section of the big river from Hedong to Henan was in danger of being a pillar, and the risk of transporting military rations by water was huge, and it was impossible for Zhang Yang in Hanoi to let the soldiers and horses of Hedong pass through, so Hedong still had to rely on the passage in Hongnong.

However, he was able to cut off the Kunhan Road anytime and anywhere, and cut off the land connection between Hedong and Henan, which was like a thing in his bag for him.

Zhang Ji had already decided that after discussing the post-war matters with Hedong, he would lead his troops back to Hongnong.

···

In the following month, on the Yin side of Henan, the two sides of the fierce battle called off the army, Zhu Jun was conscripted into the court, and Zhang Ji led the army to return to Hongnong with a large number of prisoners and military resources, leaving only Zhai Hao's Hedong troops to garrison the surrounding areas of Luoyang.

It's just a wave of flattening, wave after wave, the war in the east has just subsided, but the war in the west has suddenly broken out again, and Ma Teng led the army to invade Sanfu!

Right to support the wind, martial arts.

On the straight official road, the huge cavalry marched from west to east, the Han people and Qiang Hu soldiers in different costumes held spears, horse forks, ring knives, bows and arrows on their backs, led pack horses, and walked in the ranks on foot, the soldiers walking in front of them were also lined up in a marching formation, wearing strong and stubborn, and when they reached the back, the formation of the marching troops began to become crowded and scattered, all kinds of nonsense and abuse, the neighing of horses came and went, and the team was constantly noisy, and every time there was only a time when the soldiers accompanying the horses waved a leather whip and whipped it over the scalp. Peace will be restored in the mixed ranks.

On both sides of the road, there are groups of cavalry, compared to the mixed infantry troops, they seem to be much more orderly, each cavalry has its own horses, spears, bows and arrows and leather armor, some of the elite are carrying shields, hammers, bows and crossbows, and wearing two crotch iron armor, the momentum is extraordinary, the men and horses are like dragons.

Ma Teng, who was big and had a big face and a majestic nose, rode his horse in the ranks, surrounded by his personal cavalry, he looked at the elite cavalry on the left and right, and then looked at the flat land and the golden wheat field on the right side, and couldn't help laughing.

When the guards beside him heard Ma Teng's smile, their faces were as usual, and the guards were the same as before, only a squinting, fat and fat person heard the voice, approached Ma Teng's side, and asked with a salivating face:

"Brother, so happy, could it be that there is good news again?"

Ma Teng casually glanced at this meaty clan brother Ma Yi, smiled and said loudly:

"This is natural, Meng Qi sent a military report, he has led the army to capture Meiyang, and he will soon go east to meet with my teacher Huaili."

"Haha, Meng Qi is really the champion of the three armies, and in less than three days, he took Meiyang down."

As he spoke, Ma Yi congratulated Ma Teng flatteringly:

"Brother Yingwu Mingrui, this eastward advance, Fan Chou's disciples are invincible, we only need to capture Huaili again, we can march into Chang'an, and then everyone will drink Ma Kunming Pond, safari on the forest garden, and also go to the Weiyang Palace to play!"

Ma Yi didn't know the height of the sky, and in order to meet Ma Teng, he said something rebellious, but Ma Teng just smiled and didn't take it to heart.

In the bitter cold and barren land of Liangzhou, if there were no women and goods to inspire the soldiers, how could the soldiers die and march east to compete with the strong enemy.

Ma Teng snorted, waved his horsewhip, looked at the great mountains and rivers in Guanzhong, and thought about the contact and agreement with the courtiers of Chang'an:

Ma Yu, Chong Shao and others secretly contacted Ma Teng, who was stationed in Yi County, and asked Ma Teng to send troops to attack Li Dao, Guo Yan, and Fan Chou, mobilize the Xiliang army in Chang'an City, and create opportunities for the courtiers who had been plotting for a long time, so as to cooperate with the outside and extinguish the Dong Zhiyu party who supported the army and controlled the court in one fell swoop.

Originally, Ma Teng thought that Li Dao and others were powerful, and they were only contacting and plotting with Ma Yu, Chong Shao and others, and planned to deal with it perfunctorily first, but after seeing that the original Dong Ying generals captured Chang'an, they rewarded the soldiers and lingered in the palace wine, and the courtiers also connected Liu Fan and Zhishu Yushi Liu Dan through Zuo Zhonglang to their father Yizhou Mu Liu Yan, Ma Teng finally decided to send troops to Chang'an.

At this moment, the soldiers and horses of Shuzhong sent by Liu Yan had already left Bashu and passed through Chencang, preparing to join forces with Ma Teng to enter Chang'an.

In addition, according to the message of Chang'an's secret envoy, Yan Yan, the Taishou of Hedong, also moved, and Zhu Jun of Henan was also going to be recruited into the court and personally planned to participate in the uprising in the court.

At present, there is already an undercurrent surging in Chang'an City, and there are many dangers, but Ma Teng's department is looking for an opportunity, like a group of hungry wolves smelling blood, rushing to Chang'an.

Although Ma Teng had obeyed the rebels before, he had successfully cleared his identity by clinging to Dong Zhuo, and now among the people who have risen from all walks of life, his department is the closest to Chang'an, and the troops are also the most abundant.

For a while, Ma Teng, who was thinking of entering Beijing, was vigorous, he couldn't help waving his horsewhip, speeding up, giving a military order in his mouth, and running forward quickly with the personal guard cavalry across the ranks.

···

Chang'an, the general's mansion.

The feather and the emergency report of the right Fufeng has been transmitted to the city of Chang'an, followed by all kinds of rumors in the city of Chang'an that "the horse raised an army of 100,000 to approach Chang'an", the army sent by Fan Chou to the right Fufeng garrison was defeated in successive battles, and within two days, even lost the two important cities of Wugong and Meiyang, and even the Huaili of the right Fufeng was also in danger.

In these overwhelming series of bad news of "the fall of the city, the defeat of the garrison, and the approach of the enemy cavalry", Fan Chou, who was still in Chang'an, rarely became anxious after breaking through Chang'an, and with the smell of wine that had not yet dissipated, he rushed to Li Wei's mansion.

"Childish, Ma Teng of this Yixian County sent troops for no reason, and broke several cities on my right side of Fufeng, and the soldiers have arrived in my Huaili town, you are in charge of the central government, what is going on?"

Fan Chou, who was emotional and his face was flushed, went all the way to the rampage, strode into the hall, and saw that Li Wei was still holding the dignity of the general of the chariot and cavalry, and Shi Shiran was sitting on the lobby, he suddenly roared loudly, and he almost scolded the dignified general of the chariot and cavalry.

Fan Chou is brave, he used to fight with Dong Zhuo, he is a famous general in the Dong camp, in addition to being in awe of the former lord Dong Zhuo, now everyone has soldiers and horses, and even Li Dao is difficult to restrain him.

Li Wei saw that Fan Chou was still the same as in the Dong Ying, with the appearance of a rude martial artist, and he still shouted at himself as a colleague, and he had no scruples to sit in front of him, but now he was a general of the chariot and cavalry, and he was also angry in his heart, and he didn't bother to explain and comfort at the moment, and said coldly:

"Ma Teng raised troops for no reason, and the soldiers and horses on the right side of the wind were rotten, and they collapsed at the first touch, and they lost the city and land again and again, and you still came to ask me why!"

"I'm rotten? Joke, Ma Teng is just a defeated subordinate of my former subordinates, and now he has only sneak attacked a few of my cities, but I heard that it was Ma Teng who had a private request from you and did not get it, so he was angry and sent troops, but is there such a thing? ”

Fan Chou, who was black-faced and red-faced, heard Li Dao's cold words and ridicule, and suddenly jumped like thunder, he pointed at Li Dao in the hall, stomped his combat boots and asked aggressively.

Li Wei raised his eyebrows in the face of Fan Chou's questioning, and unceremoniously fought back and said:

"Ma Teng sent an envoy to Chang'an before, and asked me for 500,000 stone grain and grass, purely to find a gap and provoke, he was a traitor to the old revolution, not an inch of merit, and he had to be named the general of Zhengxi, it was a great luck, and he dared to ask me for too much, so arrogant, why should I give him grain and grass!"

"So he took advantage of this reason to raise troops to attack my right Fufeng, trap martial arts and Meiyang, kill the guards under my command, and plunder the people under my rule!"

Fan Chou's hand had already pressed to the saber at his waist, and his bloodshot eyes were staring at Li Dao.

Li Wei sneered again and again when he heard this, and sneered in his heart, if it weren't for the rich woman in Chang'an who was greedy for you, and refused to be ordered to guard the right wind, where would you be in this situation today.

The two were-for-tat, and they were about to tear their faces, Li Ru, who was kneeling on the side of the table, saw that the two of them were constantly arguing, and he could no longer sit down to discuss, so he could only change his silence just now, get up and persuade and said:

"Fan Hou Mo wants to be angry, Ma Teng has bad intentions, and asking for food and grass is purely just to provoke and provoke disputes, his people must have planned a long time ago, otherwise they would not dare to raise troops without authorization and invade my Sanfu Town!"

After finishing speaking, Li Ru turned his head to Li Dao and said:

"Ma Teng came all the way east, the momentum was noisy, the soldiers pointed out, far more than the right side of the wind corner, its people coveted the heart of the pass, since the Beigong Boyu, Li Wenhou rebellion, Liangzhou war is endless, counties and counties are divided, Qiang Hu has risen one after another, Liangzhou has been dissatisfied with Wang Hua for a long time, and the cavalry of Liangzhou has invaded Sanfu many times, and the prince sits in Chang'an, protecting the safety of the court, and has to guard against it!"

Li Ru was kind enough to mediate, trying to persuade the two to calm the anger in their chests and sit down together to discuss military countermeasures, but Fan Chou still had a black face, snorted coldly, and did not answer, Li Ru had to turn around and ask Li Dao for help.

Li Wei was silent for a moment, and finally took the overall situation into account, got up and said:

"What Li Shizhong said is extremely true, this matter is not trivial, Ma Tengxing's division moved the crowd to come, it must not be just for personal revenge, I have sent someone to summon the general to come to discuss the military situation, you can wait for a while, and sit down together to discuss."

The latter words were said to Fan Chou, and it could be regarded as giving Fan Chou a step down, Fan Chou thought about it, and then sat down silently, waiting for Guo Yan's arrival according to his mood.

In an instant, Guo Yan, who was summoned by Li Dao's faction, was late.

Like Fan Chou, Guo Yan was ordered to go out of the town to Zuo Feng Yi, and he only sent soldiers and horses to garrison, and he still brought soldiers and horses to park around Chang'an, not only out of nostalgia for the wealthy women in Chang'an City, but also for the illustrious power in the court.

But although there are sporadic Qiang rebellions in his territory, but there is no major war, so this time Ma Teng raised troops to invade, only he was the most calm, there is still a Jing Zhaoyin between the left Feng Yi and the right Fufeng, no matter how rampant Ma Teng's soldiers and horses are, as long as they fail to defeat Fan Chou and Li Dao, they will not be able to make trouble at his station for the time being.

When he entered the hall, although he also pretended to be concerned, Li Wei and Fan Chou both guessed the little thought in his heart, Fan Chou was still sulking, don't look at his face and don't speak, only Li Wei still smiled and greeted Guo Yan, and then Guo Yan entered his seat in a hurry.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Wuwei Ma Teng was originally divided in Longyou, it was last year to take advantage of our attack on Chang'an, only to lead the army into the right Fufeng, his generation is not enough, the DPRK named him the general of the expedition to the west, so that he guarded the west of Yixian, and Liangzhou Han Sui and others contain each other, but after entering the summer this year, he suddenly sent troops and captured the city where the right general was stationed, and the plan is unpredictable, the soldiers have arrived in Huaili, I am afraid that there is a sense of getting involved in Chang'an!"

Li Wei saw that important people had arrived, although Jia Xu was still missing, but he didn't say anything more, and directly explained the situation of Youfufeng, pointing out the intention of Ma Teng's troops at the moment and the threat to the Chang'an court.

The content of the military intelligence of Youfufeng, Guo Yan, who was in Chang'an, already knew it when he came, his face was indifferent, he played with the hilt of his saber at will, and asked lazily:

"Then according to what the general of the chariot cavalry sees, how should we deal with it?"

"Naturally, we want to send troops immediately to help Huaili!"

Fan Chou spoke first, he punched the table in front of him, making a loud noise, he already knew that Li Dao and Guo Yan intended to take this opportunity to weaken their forces, so they roared out angrily first.

Li Wei was robbed of the conversation by Fan Chou, his face was ugly, but he had already quarreled with Fan Chou just now, but at this time, it was not good to ridicule Fan Chou regardless of his identity, and disrupted the matter of discussing the military situation today, he looked at Guo Yan, who was interested in watching from the wall, and said:

"Ma Teng bears the grace of the saint, but disregards the law and discipline, suddenly raises swords, attacks and plunders the city, is a rebellious minister, must be removed, and Huaili is the right to support the wind to govern, if Huaili is lost, Sanfu is shaken, Chang'an is afraid of the danger of the enemy, so as the general said, the imperial court should issue an edict, immediately send troops, gallop to Huaili, and destroy Ma Teng."

Guo Yan playfully hooked the corners of his mouth, saying that it was an edict of the imperial court, but it was not an order that Li Dao instructed Li Ru and Jia Xu to draft an edict, and then stamped it with a jade seal, and then used it to dispatch the generals, he pretended to hesitate and said:

"I heard that Ma Tengxing has 100,000 troops, and there are Xiqiang troops to help, this enemy army is large, and the situation is unknown, I'm afraid it's not good to send troops suddenly, right?"

"Ma Teng is just an old thief who eats grass, what is the prestige to call on the Xiqiang tribes, his troops are only thirty or forty thousand, how can there be 100,000 people, Guo Aduo, you are prevaricating, do you want to sit on the wall and watch?"

Ma Teng raised troops, the right wind bore the brunt, Fan Chou's men and horses were damaged one after another, he had already been anxious, and now he saw that Guo Yan still wanted to find an excuse to prevaricate the matter of sending troops, so he immediately took the case and shouted to break Guo Yan's mind.

Guo Yan was exposed by Fan Chou in public, and he instantly pulled down his face, he lowered his head, his eyes were fierce, the scar on his face jumped a few times, and he said with bad intentions:

"If it weren't for someone who lost his division and lost his land, how could it have caused today's Ma Teng's big situation, I was thoughtful and cautious for the kings, but General Fan treated me with the heart of a villain, so what is the meaning of today's discussion?"
