Ma Teng Ma Chao's father and son are really desperate now, their home has been occupied by others, they can't go home, and they are against Lu Peng again, and Liu Bei behind him also caught up, and his only emperor was also lost, and when he came out of Xudu, he also burned Cao Cao fundamentally and killed all the ministers, which were all Cao Cao's appointed cronies, which was equivalent to completely offending Cao Cao to death.
What it means to be embattled, what it means to be cornered, that's it now.
"Father Qiqi, I just received information that the old thief Han Sui sent his eldest son into the Lu Peng military camp with an army of 20,000." Matthew hurriedly came in to report, which made Matteng even more anxious. Originally, 68,000 Lu Peng's cavalry had already given him a headache, but now with Han Sui's 20,000, he was only 60,000, and in the face of Lu Peng's 90,000 army, it was even more unrealistic to win.
Ma Chao was still unconvinced, and asked loudly: "Dad, please give the child three thousand tigers and wolves, and I will kill Lu Peng's sharp qi now." β
Ma Teng sighed and shook his hand to stop his son's impulse: "Don't say that Lu Peng doesn't fight with anyone, even if it's a fighter." You are not his opponent, he is under Zhao Yun, you can't beat him. β
Ma Chao opened his mouth, but he had nothing to say, although he had never fought against Zhao Yun, but his younger brother Ma Tie asked Zhao Yun to beat the horse with one move, and Pang De, the most powerful general under him, was captured by him in just thirty rounds in front of him, and he was really not an opponent in such martial arts.
At an embarrassing time, Ma Tie came in and reported worriedly: "Father, eldest brother, I just counted our grain and grass, and we can only support it for three days." β
This is the apocalyptic news.
Without the foundation of the rear, there is no way to talk about the daily consumption and supply of 60,000 iron hooves, and if you want to plunder the troops everywhere, now there is Lu Peng in front of you, and Liu Bei's soldiers in the back are pressing the border, and they don't dare to divide the troops at all.
Originally, according to Ma Teng's idea at the beginning, the 60,000 army took the looted grain and grass and Emperor Han Xian, and directly killed Tongguan, and then took advantage of the instability of Han Sui's rear and the Ma family's cronies to respond internally, seize Tongguan in one fell swoop, and then return to the root of Xiliang, and fight to the death with Han Sui.
As a result, his eldest son Ma Chao, in order to avenge the death of his wife and son, had to garrison Zhao Yun here, so that he had the opportunity for Lu Peng to subdue Han Sui, and only then did he have time for Liu Bei to catch up.
Ma Chao also felt that the situation was serious at this time, and how ridiculous and wrong his original decision was, so he said impassionedly: "The matter has come to this point, I will definitely not affect my father and brother, and I will not affect these 60,000 soldiers, I will go to war now, and I have this grudge with Lu Peng." β
Ma Teng shook his head helplessly: "It's too late to say anything now, we must solve the actual enemy situation in front of us." Then let the three sons come over, pointed out the new situation, and said: "Now we are in the middle of the two armies, Lu Peng and Liu Bei have always cooperated with each other, but we must break this alliance and eliminate one of them, and then we can be at ease." β
Of course, the three sons understood the current situation, and this was the only way to solve the current situation.
"As long as we break all the way, we can leave some people to entangle with Lu Peng, and if we want to delay, time is in our favor. Lu Peng and Cao Cao are in the middle of a big battle, his army commander must not have too much time outside, compared with us and Cao Cao, our threat to him is definitely the smallest, so as long as we drag him for a while, Lu Peng will definitely withdraw his troops and continue to deal with Cao Cao. As long as Lu Peng leaves, Han Sui will become a lost dog, and he is not the opponent of our father and son at all, although we may not be able to return to Xiliang, but we can transfer our troops to Guanzhong, as long as we take Guanzhong, the granary of the world, and gain a firm foothold, we can make a comeback. β
In this chaotic situation, Ma Teng immediately grasped the key to solving this mess.
"Although Liu Bei also has 50,000 horses, he is all infantry after all, as long as we send 20,000 cavalry, we can defeat it in one fell swoop."
Ma Chao immediately asked for his life: "Please father give me 20,000 horses, and I will immediately turn around, kill Liu Bei, a follower, and rob them of supplies to supply our army." β
Ma Teng nodded and patted his excellent son on the shoulder: "In the overall situation, you are still lacking, and you need continuous experience, but in battle, I firmly believe that you will be invincible in the world, go ahead, bring me Liu Bei's head." β
Ma Chao immediately answered the order loudly, turned around and was about to go out, but was directly bumped into by a person who rushed in from outside, who was the clan brother Ma Dai who he brought out.
As soon as the two of them collided and dispersed, Ma Chao saw Ma Dai's face, and he was actually happy, and couldn't help but wonder, his army had been so sleepy, how could he still have the heart to rejoice?
As a result, Ma Dai simply nodded at Ma Chao, walked directly to Ma Teng, and reported to Ma Teng with joy: "Uncle, great joy." β
Ma Teng frowned: "At this time, where is there any happy event?" "This nephew of his own, who has always been a serious and respectful person, will never talk nonsense, he said that there is a happy event coming, there must be some good news.
Ma Dai said happily: "Uncle, Zhuge Liang, the military advisor under Liu Bei, came to visit him in person. β
As soon as this news came out, the Ma family father and son were stunned on the spot.
Sangu Thatched House is already famous in the world, Zhuge Liang is the first minister in Liu Bei's hands, and his importance has surpassed his two brothers, just when the two armies are fighting, Liu Bei's first important person suddenly came to visit him, what will be the purpose?
Ma Dai seemed to see the surprise of his uncle and several cousins, and whispered his judgment: "Liu Bei sent such an important person to come, he must want to persuade us to join Liu Bei." β
This statement was really groundbreaking, and it didn't make the Ma family father and son turn around at that time.
Ma Dai immediately stepped forward and said: "Now our Ma family has offended almost all the heroes in the world, and the situation we are in now is almost a dead end, if we want to survive, if we want to be able to dominate again, we must choose a hero to take refuge." "Look at the indignant brothers, and then look at my uncle. Seeing his uncle, his face was contemplative, Ma Dai suggested again: "Uncle Liu Bei Liu Huang, occupy the name of righteousness in the world, and the name of benevolence is spread in the world, his subordinates Guan Daniel Zhang Huang Zhong Wei Yanyong crown the three armies, Zhuge Liang is full of clever plans, and there are 50,000 male soldiers in hand, occupying Si is already a certainty, Jingzhou Liu Biao, old and incompetent, it is said that he is terminally ill, this time Zhuge Liang will leave Guan Yu and 50,000 troops in Jingzhou, he will definitely leave a strategy for Guan Yu, and do what Liu Bei is embarrassed to do, once Jingzhou enters Liu Bei's hands again, It is the capital of the emperors of the world. β
Ma Teng nodded slightly.
"And at this time, his territory has expanded, and his subordinates lack fierce generals who can fight well, if our Ma family takes these 60,000 iron horsemen to join him, it will definitely be reused by him, so it has a great future."
Ma Teng's eyes couldn't help but light up, Ma Chao and several other brothers also fell into deep thought, and after a long time, Ma Teng said to Ma Dai: "The three armies are arrayed, follow me to meet Mr. Kong Ming." β
