691. The situation of Ma Teng and Han Sui
This Luoyang will also be the imperial capital set by Zhu Wei in the future, and now Zhu Wei can only be regarded as starting construction early.
Nowadays, Zhu Wei's craftsman workshop has developed a formula for simple cement, the main material is limestone, clay and gypsum and other things are mixed, and then calcined and ground through a high-temperature furnace, and finally simple cement can be made.
In this way, using this simple cement as the shell and filling it with rammed earth from the inside, a solid rock city wall can be quickly constructed, which is stronger than the original rammed earth city wall, which is why Zhu Wei came to Luoyang with craftsmen at this time.
Of course, after the main force of Zhu Wei's army came to Luoyang, Zhu Wei also sent Wei Yan's Jingnan battalion to conquer Hongnong County, and sent the cavalry of the Tiger Wing Battalion to conquer Chang'an.
Now that Luoyang has been laid, the land of Guanzhong will naturally be taken down, and this is just a homeopathic trend.
In fact, Wu Xi, Zhong Xuan, and Duan Xuanjun, who fled to Hongnong, and Duan Xuanjun stationed in Hongnong were not enough for Zhu Wei to worry about, and their total was less than 10,000 people, and Zhu Wei believed that Wei Yan's attack would be enough to destroy them.
However, let the Tiger Wing Battalion attack Chang'an, but there is still something to worry about.
This can be regarded as the first official battle of the cavalry of the Tiger Wing Battalion, although Zhang Xiu, as the old department of the Western Liang Army, is also relatively familiar with the land of Guanzhong, but they have to face Ma Teng, Han Sui and other Liangzhou troops, which are also not weak troops.
Na Ma Teng is the father of Ma Chao, Ma Xiu, and Ma Tie, the generals of Liangzhou in the later period, and his own force can also be included in the ranks of super generals, and his military ability is also not weak.
And Han Sui was famous in Xizhou, and was later kidnapped by the Qianghu rebels and elected as the leader, gathered 100,000 people to rebel, and successively defeated famous generals such as Huangfu Song, Zhang Wen, Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian, etc., although the military force can only be regarded as second-rate, but it also has the attribute of a general.
This Ma Teng and Han Sui were also good friends at the beginning, and they once worshipped as brothers of the opposite sex, and the two rebelled together to make chaos in the northwest, raiding and plundering Youfufeng, Jingzhaoyin, Zuo Fengyi and other places around Chang'an, which was known as the Sanfu Rebellion in history.
When Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, he co-opted Ma Teng and Han Sui and asked them to send troops into Beijing together, but when Ma Teng and Han Sui arrived in Chang'an, Dong Zhuo was dead, and Li Dao, Guo Yan and others were in power, so Ma Teng and Han Sui were involved in the chaos in Guanzhong.
Now Ma Teng and Han Sui's army have replaced Li Dao and Guo Yan to become the biggest force in Guanzhong, but there are also some contradictions between the two of them, and they are no longer as close as before, because of the contradictions between interests and tribes, and even fight with each other.
At first, it was Ma Teng who attacked Han Sui, Han Sui was defeated, and later Han Sui joined forces to counterattack Ma Teng, and Han Sui also killed Ma Teng's wife and children, and the two completely became enemies of life and death from close brothers with different surnames, and they also fought with each other.
But even so, the Liangzhou cavalry under their respective control was no less than 30,000 or 40,000 people.
Although many of the Liangzhou cavalry under their control were Qianghu foreign mercenaries, these Qianghu aliens were far superior to the Han cavalry in terms of horsemanship, so even if there was an enmity between them now, they would not necessarily fight together, but Zhu Wei's Tiger Wing Battalion would also face difficulties in dealing with either of them.
Of course, before Zhu Wei sent Zhang Xiu, Zhang Liao, and Chen Qun to send troops, he also instructed them to plan that they could unite one side to attack the other side during this trip to the battle of Chang'an.
According to Zhu Wei's meaning, it is best to unite with Ma Teng to deal with Han Sui.
Because Ma Teng's ambition is still less, he hopes to restore the title of Ma Yuan, the ancestor of Fubo's general, which is still a more ambushable type.
In the original history, Ma Teng was also persuaded by Cao Cao's envoy to give up his military power to become an official in the court, which shows that he was not very thoughtful about being a soil emperor or something about separating the place, and finally he took his family and children to Cao Cao's territory in Yecheng at that time, leaving only one Ma Chao to lead the rest outside.
As a result, Ma Chao rebelled later, and Cao Cao killed Ma Teng's entire clan in anger, but because of this, he could know Ma Teng's intentions, he didn't have much thought about secession, as long as he was given the right treatment, he could still make him surrender.
As for Han Sui, it is different, he has always been a strong man who has close ties with the Qianghu tribe in the northwest of Liangzhou, and he obviously prefers to be his own soil emperor in the local area.
Now Ma Teng is using officials to seduce him, and he may be able to attach himself to Zhu Wei, but Han Sui is different, he wants more things, not to mention that in Zhu Wei's opinion, Han Sui is a traitor who colluded with foreign races to invade the Central Plains, so Zhu Wei is more willing to choose Ma Teng.
Of course, Ma Teng and his son Ma Chao and the general Pang De can be regarded as generals, and Ma Teng's other sons are also brave generals who are good at fighting.
As for Han Sui's side, there is only one son-in-law, Yan Xing, who can be regarded as a general, and in the end, this Yan Xing actually rebelled against Han Sui, which shows that Han Sui's side is relatively easy to fight.
Of course, there are also small forces such as Zhang Heng, Liang Xing, Hou Xuan, Cheng Yin, Li Kan, Cheng Yi, Ma Wan, Yang Qiu and so on in Chang'an, each of whom has thousands of troops, and if they are united, they can be regarded as a force.
Judging from the current situation known to Zhu Wei, Zhang Heng and Liang Xing seem to be attached to Ma Teng's side, and they also followed Ma Teng to garrison near Chang'an, while the candidates, Cheng Yin, Li Kan, Cheng Yi, and Ma Wan are mainly active in Sili Hedong County, biased towards supporting Han Sui's forces, and the last Yang Qiu is active in Anding County, Liangzhou, relatively independent of Ma Teng and Han Sui's forces.
In fact, Han Sui's base camp is in Jincheng County, Liangzhou, and Ma Teng started in Fufeng County, Sili, relatively speaking, Ma Teng's forces are closer to Chang'an, so now Han Sui's forces have infiltrated Chang'an, which is also a bit anti-guest-oriented.
This is also the main contradiction between Ma Teng and Han Sui at the moment.
At the beginning, Ma Teng was worried that his forces were not enough, so he led Han Sui's forces to Chang'an together, and then joined forces to defeat Guo Yan and Li Dao's forces that were originally on Chang'an's side.
Now under the mediation of Zhong Xuan, Ma Teng and Han Sui's forces have carved up Chang'an City, and then Han Sui occupies Zuo Fengyi and Hedong County north of Chang'an, and Ma Teng still occupies the right Fufeng area.
This means that Ma Teng did not expand much territory, but Han Sui spread his power from Liangzhou to the Chang'an region of Sili, which naturally made Ma Teng unhappy.
Although the contradiction between the two seems to have expanded because of the dispute between the subordinate tribes, in fact, it is still for the sake of territorial interests, and the so-called friction and dispute between the tribes is likely to be a means made by Ma Teng, which is why Ma Teng will attack Han Sui first.
Of course, the information about the situation between Ma Teng and Han Sui was also analyzed by Zhu Wei through the investigation of the school office and the strategists on his side.
Now Zhu Wei let the Tiger Wing Battalion go over, if he wants to unite with Ma Teng to deal with Han Sui, then he can give Ma Teng a promise, and Ma Teng can be stationed in Chang'an in the future and help Zhu Wei sit in the northwest.
Although Zhu Wei couldn't directly use the name of the Son of Heaven to give Ma Teng an official, Zhu Wei was able to give him on-the-ground benefits, of course, this was also temporary......
