Chapter 274: Taking Yourself as a Hostage

"Chao'er, what do you think?" Ma Teng listened to Ma Dai's words, thought for a long time, looked at Ma Chao on the side, and then asked. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Ma Chao was frightened because his father wanted him to go to Chang'an as a hostage, he didn't want to live that kind of prisoner-like life anymore, and now when he heard his father ask, he said respectfully: "The child also thinks that Bozhan is right, no matter what, we and Liu He are now relatives, Liu He is my brother-in-law, I believe that my father can go to Chang'an, not only to show sincerity, but also to ensure safety." ”

"Since this is the case, then I will personally go to Chang'an, Chao'er, you have to remember, you will be the lord of Yongzhou in the future, you must be diligent and love the people, although my father does not like Liu He, but I also know that this Liu He does have the ability, and he is also very benevolent to the people, and can make the people under his command extremely trust and loyalty, which you have to learn hard. Maybe Liu and this kid would have had such a day, right? Alas, if you know today, why bother in the first place? Thinking of all the bad things he did to Liu He before, Ma Teng couldn't help but feel a little annoyed with himself, even if he was thick-skinned now, he went to see Liu He like this, and his face was very disgraceful.

"Please rest assured that the child will not live up to his father's expectations, and when his strength grows one day, he will definitely let my brother-in-law let his father go home." Ma Chao listened to Ma Teng's words, and he was actually very excited in his heart, because he could also become the master of the young party like Sun Ce and Liu He.

When he said those words to Ma Teng, he also secretly said in his heart: "Look at it, I, Ma Chao, will one day establish a hegemony like my good brother-in-law Liu He, and become famous all over the world!" ”

Ma Teng naturally didn't know what kind of ambition his son had, after he pacified Ma Chao and made some arrangements, he immediately set off, took his wife and sons Ma Tie and Ma Xiu to Chang'an together, and after coming to Youfufeng, he asked his general Pang De to be ready to evacuate at any time, and then led the army to Chencang to help Ma Chao defend the town.

In order to preserve his foundation, Ma Teng is also fighting now, and he has been working hard along the way, and he came to Chang'an City in just a few days.

When he heard the news of Ma Teng's arrival, Liu He immediately ordered the city gate to be opened to welcome Ma Teng inside.

After coming to Liu He's general's mansion, the group exchanged pleasantries, and Liu He asked his wife and concubine to visit Ma Teng and his wife, and after the women all left, Ma Teng told Liu He his intentions again.

I saw Ma Teng sighing: "The general is above, this time Teng found the general, in fact, he has something to ask for, don't hide it from the general, in fact, the reason why Teng invited the general to Chen Cang before, in fact, it was Han Sui's idea, he wanted to take this opportunity to assassinate the general, and then Teng thought that you are my son-in-law, and did not do it, but he didn't expect Han Sui to be angry and lead the army to attack my city, and now Chen Cang is under the siege of Han Sui's house, and it is in danger, so Teng Cai went to Chang'an in person and asked the general to send troops to help, As long as the general is willing to help defeat Han Sui, Teng is willing to return the right Fufeng to the general, in addition, Teng and his wife are willing to take their bodies as hostages, stay in Chang'an, and show the general my sincerity in pursuing peace. ”

I saw Liu He say with a smile: "Actually, my father-in-law should know that He never takes the initiative to regard anyone as a potential threat, and the reason why He is famous is that he is actually a person who pays attention to peace, and things like war are all done as a last resort." ”

Ma Teng echoed and secretly slandered: "Just you, this kid, there are endless conspiracies and tricks, cheating, and doing everything, and you dare to say that you are a peace-minded person, if you are a peace-minded person, I'm afraid the world will have stopped the scourge of war a long time ago." ”

Then Liu He said: "Actually, it's okay to say something, we are originally a family, how can we not help each other in times of crisis?" Isn't this Han Sui a good thing? At first, he and his father-in-law became brothers with different surnames, but what happened later? He turned against his father-in-law regardless of his brotherly affection, and even my uncle Meng Qi was almost killed by Yan Xing. Later, he formed an alliance with his father-in-law, and bewitched his father-in-law to secretly plot my Chang'an, this matter is not unknown, but with such a peace-loving nature, it is naturally invisible, but this Han Sui saw that the goal was not achieved, and he blamed his father-in-law for coming, before we were just a normal relative walk, he suspected that we were colluding together, how could people like this cooperate with him? Please rest assured, father-in-law, your business is my business, and I must send troops as soon as possible to deal with Han Sui, the old thief, I believe that it will not be long before I can completely rescue the innocent people of Liangzhou who are under the dark rule of Han Sui by cooperating with my eldest brother. ”

“…… I really didn't expect this guy to be so thick-skinned, so what did he think of himself? He even wanted to save the innocent people of Liangzhou under the dark rule of Han Sui? Although Han Sui's rule is a bit tough, it is not to the extent that the people you said are under the rule of darkness and need to be rescued, right? Now that the princes are divided, Han Sui is not stupid, how can he not know the truth that tyrannical rule will lead to destruction? ”

However, Ma Teng didn't say what he thought in his heart, after all, he has a request for others now, no matter how shameless others say, he just needs to listen quietly.

Then he saw Liu He ordered: "Pass my order, order Li Ping to lead an army of 20,000 to attack and settle down, Zhou Cang, Fang Yue, and Yu Ban each mention 10,000 troops to set off later, with Yu Ban as the commander, in charge of the three armies, and grant Fu Jie, if there is any disobedience, all will be killed; At the same time, he ordered the 10,000 troops of Wei Yan and the 20,000 Hun cavalry to go to Gaonu to wait for orders, and when I attack Anding, they can attack Beidi County at the same time. ”

"Huh? General, didn't you promise to help me fight off Han Sui? Why didn't you send troops to Chencang, but instead attacked the two counties of Anding and Beidi? Ma Teng listened to Liu He's words, and was immediately surprised, and at the same time there was a trace of dissatisfaction on his face.

I saw Liu He smile and said: "My father-in-law has been fighting all his life, how can I not know the plan of the sages to surround Wei and save Zhao?" My move is to encircle Wei to save Zhao, as long as I can lead the army to capture Anding and Beidi, I believe that Han Sui will definitely send troops to help, as long as the pressure on Chen Cang is small, coupled with Pang De's help, I believe that the eldest brother will soon be able to sweep away the enemy army there, and then continue to advance the troops to Hanyang, and even Jincheng County, and when Han Sui loses his troops and can't take care of both sides, I believe that it is not difficult for the eldest brother to capture Han Sui's old nest Jincheng. If he can't even do this, where can he still be praised as a tiger general in the world? ”
