When Ma Chao led the army towards Luoyang, two people ran out on horses half a day in advance. Waiting for the arrival of Ma Chao's army on the official road from Wuwei to Luoyang, one is Ma Teng's daughter, Ma Yunlu, in order to facilitate following the army, she also changed into a military uniform, heroic and cool, it is really a woman who does not let her eyebrows. There is another person who is Ma Teng's nephew, Ma Dai, who naturally wanted to follow Ma Chao to the battlefield, but Ma Teng did not allow it, so he could only secretly follow his cousin out.

After waiting for a long time and not seeing anyone come, Ma Dai had no experience in the rivers and lakes compared to Ma Yunlu, and said a little nervously: "Sister, do you think that the eldest brother will not take this road, why hasn't he arrived yet?" Ma Yunlu said confidently: "Don't worry, the eldest brother is such an adult, this road is very familiar, how can he get lost?" Ma Dai was speechless for a moment, eldest brother will not get lost, I'm afraid we will go wrong. But he soon vetoed his idea, and a group of men was coming towards them.

The situation was not as they hoped, but they saw that the leader was an obscene and ugly young man, staring at Ma Yunlu with squinting eyes and said, "My daughter-in-law, where are you going to go?" Ma Yunlu was shocked, these people were not the eldest brother's troops, but Han Sui's son Han Zheng and his subordinates, although he was nervous, he still said angrily: "Han Zheng, you don't want to talk nonsense, my father agrees to this marriage, I won't agree, my eldest brother is coming soon, even if he beats you, it will be in vain." ”

Han Zheng suddenly felt funny, he had already seen Ma Chao pass by the path in order to save time, and said to his subordinates: "Do you know who his eldest brother is, General Xiliang Tianweishen, are you afraid?" Han Zheng's little minions also knew that Ma Chao was not there, so they naturally laughed and echoed Han Zheng's teasing of Ma Yunlu. No one thought that Ma Yunlu got the courage, maybe this Han Zheng was too annoying to him, he sped up, and stabbed him with a spear, Han Zheng was defenseless, he was stabbed with a hole in his thigh, and he fell directly off the horse, covering his wounds and screaming.

Han Zheng's subordinates saw that Han Zheng was injured, and they also hurried over to protect Han Zheng. Han Zheng was only injured in the thigh, and his life was not in danger, he endured the pain, gritted his teeth and said: "Whoever catches the slut, let him enjoy it, if something happens, I will be responsible!" The minions got the master's order, and suddenly their courage increased greatly, Ma Yunlu was not only strong in martial arts, but also even more beautiful, and he was lustful in his heart, and rushed towards Ma Yunlu and Ma Dai without knowing whether he was alive or dead.

Ma Yunlu was a little panicked because he stabbed Han Zheng and didn't know what to do, but Ma Dai didn't, showing the demeanor of a general, calm and calm, and said to Ma Yunlu: "Sister, what are you waiting for if you don't do it now, I'll cover you, you go to find the eldest brother." As he spoke, Ma Dai held a spear and fought with Han Zheng's men. Ma Yunlu also knew that this was not the time to be timid, once he was caught, even if Daddy got himself, he would be ruined in the hands of Han Zheng, a scumbag.

Although there are many people under Han Zheng, they are just whiskers and horses, lackeys and eagles, dogs, etc., and it is not good to really meet good martial arts. No, in just a few rounds, more than a dozen people have been knocked off their horses by seven or eight of them, and Ma Yunlu and Ma Dai will not be killed, so as not to annoy Han Sui, although Han Zheng endured the pain and scolded this group of waste, but no one dared to stop Ma Yunlu and Ma Dai anymore, so they could only watch the two escape.

The two of them were relieved to see that Han Zheng's men did not chase after them, but they didn't know what to do next. Ma Yunlu was too nervous just now, and he endured it strongly and didn't cry, but now that the danger is gone, he suddenly felt aggrieved and cried. Ma Dai stepped forward and comforted: "Sister, don't be afraid, then Han Zheng is looking for trouble by himself, and he can't complain about us, but he only injured him, and didn't kill him." Uncle is now the Liangzhou pastor canonized by the imperial court, and Han Sui did not dare to attack. Now that the eldest brother is not here, let's go back, in case we are arrested by Han Sui, everything is over, so let's go to the eldest brother to avoid the limelight first, and then do the theory. When Ma Yunlu heard this, he felt that Ma Dai's method was feasible, and in order not to miss Ma Chao again, the two of them also hurried towards Hangu Pass, which is a necessary place for the army, and it is most suitable to wait here.

In Luoyang, Yuan Xi and his men were actively dealing with the captives and the population that had migrated in before Zhang Xiu. Although more than 5,000 Cao troops were captured this time, and now Yuan and Cao are still at war, they dare not casually incorporate Cao's army into their own army. The first way: If the people who have migrated from the surrounding areas are unwilling to join the army and are willing to stay in Luoyang to rebuild their homes, they can choose to abandon the fields, register and cultivate, and become the population of Luoyang. The second way: all those who do not want to stay in Luoyang and want to return to their hometowns can only return to their hometowns until the two sides truce, and during this period, they must also participate in the task of rebuilding Luoyang. The third way: All those who are willing to take refuge in Yuan Jun can go to General Zhang Xiu to sign up, led by Zhang Xiu.

The people looked at the content of the notice, thanked Yuan Gongzi for his magnanimity, and actively cooperated with Yuan Xi's arrangement, and within a few days, the aftermath of Luoyang was handled in an orderly manner. The big tent of the Luoyang military camp, Yuan Xi listened to the work report of his generals, and was also very satisfied, Xun Zhan, as the veteran of Yuan Xi's army, was also one of Yuan Xi's most relied on strategists, and appropriately patted the sycophants and said: "The people of Luoyang are praising the general's strategy as unparalleled in the world, broad-minded and open-minded, tolerant of all rivers, and heroes in the world." It is gratifying and congratulatory, and it is full of the hearts of the people of Luoyang. Yuan Xi also modestly said that this is the result of everyone's efforts, we are a group together, no one can do without it, and the subordinates will be grateful.

Yuan Xi continued: "This time I convened everyone, not only to deal with the affairs of Luoyang, but also to discuss how to deal with the Xiliang cavalry. According to the news from Zhang Yan from Hangu Pass, Ma Chao led more than 10,000 Xiliang cavalry, with Pang De as the vanguard, and will arrive in Luoyang in the near future. Zhao Yun, who usually doesn't like to talk, stepped forward unexpectedly this time and asked: "Don't worry, general, give me 2,000 men and horses, and I'll go to meet the Xiliang cavalry for a while, is it really as powerful as rumored." ”

Yuan Xi saw that Zhao Yun took the initiative, and was overjoyed in public, and then looked at his tactician Xu Shu. Although Xu Shu didn't know why Yuan Xi was jealous of Ma Chao, who had never fought before, was Xiliang Tieqi really invincible in the world, but Zhao Yun was calm and calm, bravely crowned the three armies, and had Zhao Yun as the vanguard, even if he didn't win, he could deal with it, and nodded in support. Gao Gan felt that it was inappropriate, not long ago he was defeated by the three thousand Guanzhong cavalry led by Zhang Xiu, and now he is still a stronger Xiliang cavalry than the Guanzhong cavalry, so he stepped forward and said: "General Zilong is not bringing more men and horses, Pang De's name is Longxi, he is the first general under Ma Teng, not to be taken lightly!" Unexpectedly, Gao Gan's words aroused Zhao Yun's fighting spirit, and he insisted: "I am willing to establish a military order, if I break a brother, it will not be considered a success." ”
