"What! You've already arrested my family! Ma Xuan couldn't help but be angry.

"If it weren't for that, we can't guarantee that the general would have agreed to this, so offended." Jia Ying still smiled, "Since the general has agreed to this matter, and for the sake of the safety of the general's family, the sooner the general's family is brought to the ministry, the sooner the general will be relieved." ”

"Oh? So you mean well? Hum! Ma Xuan still snorted coldly, but he also calmed down a little, after all, his family members have been held in the hands of others, and his own handle is also in the hands of the other party......

"That being the case, General, let us take the three thousand captives of our army to the place where we will be taken. In the following view, the Luyin Ferry is the best place, the east bank is the Han land, and the west bank has entered our Qiang land, when we set up a boat on the riverbank, you only need to bring people to the riverbank, and then take a boat to cross the shore together...... "So it sounds like this Jia Ying has already been planned, and there is no room for Ma Xuan to discuss, which means that you can only do what I say."

But seeing that Jia Ying was talking enthusiastically for a long time, Ma Xuan on the side was a little angry, and said a little timidly, "But...... I can mobilize these Qiang prisoners to take the token of Wei Ju, the captain of the Qiang school, but I can't move them...... "This Wei Ju is also one of the Qiang guards, but he went into battle to kill the enemy bravely and decisively, and he made a lot of achievements. Zhao Chong appreciated him very much, and when he returned to Beijing to report on his work, he asked Wei Ju to be the acting captain of the Qiang Guardian to manage the affairs of the Qiang people, and there was a hidden intention of recommending him as the captain of the Qiang Protector in the future.

When Jia Ying heard Ma Xuan say this, his face became extremely ugly, and he said coldly after a while, "Jia still thought that the general had already thought of a strategy to bring these three thousand Qiang people to his subordinates, did the general mean that he wanted to empty the gloves of the white wolf?" It turned out that these two people had their own ghosts, and one of them easily agreed to this matter without even having the means to move the Qiang slaves, and negotiated the conditions with others first; And the other one detained the other party's family members and threatened them earlier, which was really half a catty and eight taels.

"But this token is in Wei Ju's hands, and he never leaves his body, and I have nothing to do." Ma Xuan looked like a scoundrel, but he didn't dare to be too presumptuous, for fear of forcing the other party into a hurry.

"Hmph, don't you know? Ma Zhi and Wei Ju are close friends, if he says something, then Wei Ju will also think about it...... Jia Ying was angry in his heart, and he had changed his title to Ma Xuan from general to engagement.

"He even knows this......" Ma Xuan said secretly in his heart, "Could it be that this person arrested me because he fell in love with this relationship?" ”

But I heard Jia Ying go on to say, "I think that Wei Ju is only a horse's ear, he only knows how to fight bravely, and he is so happy, how can he be so resourceful as a general, but this Zhao Chong Zhao Lieutenant handed over this generation of Captain Huqiang to Wei Ju before leaving, but he didn't entrust him to engage in it, but he knew why he was doing it, Jia was stupid, but he couldn't figure out the truth in the middle, hehe......" But seeing Jia Ying's words unhurriedly, he seemed to have regained his confidence.

Ma Xuan listened to these words, the more he listened, the more his face changed, he had long lost his previous lazy appearance, and his eyes were staring at Jia Ying fiercely, full of anger and embarrassment after being poked by someone in his heart, and he felt that the person in front of him was extremely terrifying.

Although he and Wei Ju are like brothers on the surface, they are really jealous and hateful to him in their hearts, the reason is just as Jia Ying said, he is better than Wei Ju in everything, and he is not as willing to sacrifice his life and death as Wei Ju when he fights, but Zhao Chong, the captain of Huqiang, is optimistic about Wei Ju, praises him for his loyalty and patriotism, and wants him to replace him, he hates Wei Ju! This secret was well concealed, but it was known to this person who didn't know it yesterday.

And because of this, he felt that it was hopeless to be promoted to the captain of Huqiang in the future, so he caught the enemy chief and did not report it to the court, and was ready to resign after making a fortune to enjoy the blessings, but he didn't know that he encountered this matter.

But Jia Ying continued, "After being a famous family, he is the great-great-grandson of Ma Chengma Yangwu, one of the twenty-eight generals of Emperor Guangwu Yuntai, and that Wei Ju is from a flat-headed common people, and he is a substitute captain of the Qiang Guard, but he is still engaged, is this fair?" Could it be that the Great Han treated the heroes like this? Jia Ying's sentence was heartbroken, but he really wanted to take advantage of Ma Xuan's distraction and add another heavy punch.

"Say no more!" Ma Xuan roared, his face was full of pain, and the vigilance in his heart had collapsed, this was the deep cause of the injustice in his heart, Jia Ying's move swept away his pride as a famous family, how could he not lose this battle. For a long time, I only listened to him say word by word, "Zhao Chong, Wei Ju!" You are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust! "Only the roots of the teeth rattled.

Raising his head and saying to Jia Ying, "Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to bring the three thousand Qiang captives to the Yuyin Ferry, and I, Ma Xuan, will do what I say......" His voice was extremely weak, but he heard him muttering in a low voice, "But I can't turn back?" Thinking about how heroic the ancestor Ma Cheng was in fighting against the Qiang trouble, should he be ashamed to be the unfaithful and unfilial descendant of the ancestors? ……”

Jia Ying saw that Ma Xuan had been defeated by himself, and knew that half of the great work had been completed, so he said happily, "I will wait for the general's good news in Yuyin Gudu, as for the time?" I'll send someone else to inform the general! In the last sentence, a hint of pride appeared at the corner of Jia Ying's mouth that could not be concealed.

"General, please go back to the Lieutenant's Mansion in Lingju Huqiang, if you come out for too long, the Lieutenant Wei will be suspicious, and the maids in the general's family will take care of it, so let's leave!" Let the general ride back. Jia Ying said, and then said a word to the Qiang man beside him in Qiang language, and the Qiang man brought a horse and handed it to Ma Xuan.

"Good ......" Ma Xuan only whispered, and took the horse in his hand and walked towards Lingju County.

Jia Ying gave an order in Qiang language, and all the Qiang people also rode their horses and disappeared into the wind and sand......

But I saw that in the cave where Dong Zhuo was, a bird with a whole body like ink flew out, hovered in the air a few times, and hurriedly followed the Xiqiang horse team that was far away with a chirp. After a while, another black bird flew out of the cave, which was the same as the previous bird, but it flew in the direction where Ma Xuan went.

All the words of Ma Xuan and Jia Ying were listened to by Dong Zhuo in the cave from beginning to end, Dong Zhuo performed the "snake diving" technique in the Liuhe Demon Skill Snake Clan according to the instructions of the blasphemy, and the hidden breath was not noticed, only when the two teams of people were far away, the blasphemy voice was remembered in Dong Zhuo's mind.

"Tut-tut, Dong boy, your human race in this world is so scheming, and the old man is a little frightened when he listens to it. If you are in the old man's world, you rely on your strength to speak, and you all hurry up to practice magic skills, which one is stronger, you will respect which one, and how can you think of so many conspiracies and tricks. Blasphemy said disapprovingly.

Dong Zhuo also heard it very well, although he understood that the Han was engaged in Ma Xuan's conspiracy and collusion with the Qiang people, but they took the Qiang people away, but it was not the Qiang people who came to the county to plunder, and even heard that the place where the incident occurred was at the Luyin Ferry, which was more than two hundred miles southwest of Lintao County, which was far away, and it seemed that it could not affect him, and he didn't take this matter very seriously. He was frail since he was a child, and his family did not instill him with many ideas of protecting his family and defending the country, so he did not realize that he should immediately report to the county magistrate and the Qiang Governor's Mansion after hearing such a major incident of treason with the enemy.

But he heard Yan Ming continue, "Although the old man is not interested in their treacherous schemes, he said earlier that if we want to go to the land of Xiqiang, we need to send two Xuanyu Sparrows to find out some news. "It turned out that the two blackbirds that flew out of the cave before were the Xuanyu Sparrows that had been transformed by the demonic qi of the blasphemy Ming, and they were following behind the two centaurs......

More than two months have passed in a blink of an eye, this is the second month of the third year of Han'an, and it is about to enter spring in a blink of an eye, Dong Zhuo still goes to the desolate cave every day to practice the Liuhe Demon Skill, and the snake clan exercises have been practiced to a medium grade, only to feel that the more you practice, the more dark and strong the body is, the northwest wind is howling in winter but you don't realize it, and it feels redundant to wear cotton clothes.

At this level, a technique called "Thousand Phantom Snake Hands" can be cultivated. According to the blasphemy that when this spell is practiced to a high level, the aura can turn into a thousand snake shadows, overwhelming the sky and attacking the enemy in all directions, but only one of the snakes contains fierce strength, but the enemy can't tell the difference, and can only defeat these snake shadows and aura one by one to know which is true and which is false, but by then it is too late, and it has already been hit by the real shadow.

Of course, Dong Zhuo can't reach this thousand-handed illusion now, and he can only give birth to three snake shadows under hard practice, which is also extremely rare.

"Dong boy, if the demonic qi you refine every day can be injected into the hands of this snake, the power of this spell can be increased by more than ten times and a hundred times, at that time it was called the 'Thousand Demon Snake Hand', but now, what ......" Blasphemy sighed......

A few days later, in the Xiqiang burning department, among the thousands of gray and white tents, there was a big red silk tent, and in front of the tent hung a large silk made of yak hair, which was the camp tent where the leader of the burning was burned.

"Report!" There was an urgent report from outside the tent, and the scout entered the tent to pray, and the man gasped, walked into the tent, and saluted Naduo, "King, there is news from hundreds of miles away, and the king of the Southern Huns has succeeded!" "It's Qiang.

"Oh!" There was a man standing beside him with a look of great joy on his face, and he saw that this man was of medium stature, in his forties, with a goatee and a slightly wide face, and said, "In this way, it will be three or four days later!" Listening to the voice was that Jia Ying, but Dong Zhuo had only heard this person's voice, it turned out that this person was born with such a look.

"The king, since the Huns have already succeeded, we will order the brothers in the county to inform Ma Xuan, and let him do it on the sixth day of the third month in three days, he is the key to our planning!" Jia Ying said to Naduo saluting.

"Just do everything according to what the military advisor says!" Na Duo loudly gave orders to his subordinates, and he was also extremely happy, and said to Jia Ying, "It's time to finish!" The credit of the military advisor is the greatest! When the king arrives, he will definitely pay a big bowl of wine to the military division, and he will reward you with whatever you want! ”

"The minister doesn't dare to take credit, everything is the king's divine martial arts, and the blessings are profound, which is so smooth, when the king leads us to attack stability, kill the dog and the ministers, you have nothing to ask for, and you are willing to be a cow and horse for the king!" There was a burst of flattery, and there was so much laughter.

Jia Ying called the messenger to give him a few words, handed him a bracelet, and said, "Tell General Ma that his wife and son are all right in the ministry, and they can meet his wife after they are done......

"Yes!" The man took the command and departed.

A day later, Lingju County Huqiang engaged in Ma Xuan's mansion was deserted, and the people were not prosperous.

But he said that Ma Xuan rode back alone that day, smeared a few blood stains on his face on the way, and cut two more wounds on his body, before he stumbled into the Protector Governor's Mansion. Ma Xuan said that he only brought dozens of people to patrol the border, but he suddenly encountered a large group of Qiang soldiers, captured himself, and killed twenty or thirty Qiang soldiers in a row before he took the horse and ran back, but all his men died.

When Wei Ju heard this, he was very worried about Ma Xuan, and after hearing it, he praised Ma Xuan's wisdom and bravery, and wanted to ask the court for merit for him. This Wei Ju has a rough personality, and Ma Xuan is a close friend of himself, so he didn't think Ma Xuan's coaxing was false at all, and he didn't investigate this matter in detail, Ma Xuan secretly sneered in his heart.

After leaving the school captain's mansion and returning home, sure enough, all the family members were gone, and he knew that he could not turn back, so he thought hard about how to coax Wei Ju to bring the 3,000 Qiang prisoners to the Luyin ferry that night. But after a few days, I felt that it was difficult to persuade Wei Ju to think of a strategy, and I thought of a great plan every night, and the next day I felt that it was full of loopholes.

He was afraid that he would let himself take the Qiang prisoners away after a few days, and he was anxious every day, but after two months in a row, he still did not see anyone inform him of the agreed time, and he hesitated in his heart, "Don't the Qiang people want these people anymore?" After dinner one day, I heard a report from someone that Wei Ju, the lieutenant of the Qiang Guard, had summoned him to the mansion to discuss matters.

"What to discuss! Could it be that Wei Ju knows about my treason? Otherwise, how can you pass me into the house late at night! Shocked, he hurriedly asked the messenger, "Do you know why it is urgent to discuss late at night?" "He had already hidden the dagger in his hand, and if this man was in a mouth, he would have killed him immediately and fled overnight. No matter what prisoners, what engagements, what generals, what family dependents, their own lives matter.

But the person who heard the news did not panic and said, "I heard that the captain of the guard said that it seems to be for the purpose of collecting food." ”

"Levy grain?" When Ma Xuan heard that it was not his own business, most of his heart was relieved, "Levy grain, levy grain!" Ma Xuan muttered a few words in his mouth, suddenly thought of something, and with a look of great joy on his face, he hurriedly followed the messenger to the Qiang Guardian Commander's Office.
