Han Sui walked into Jincheng tremblingly, and the troops inside were no longer under Ma Teng's command, but rather unfamiliar faces. He knew www.biquge.info that Xun Gang, the kid, must have used a discordant trick to seize the golden city when his subordinates were fighting with Ma Chao.

He was also quite familiar with the people who were on the city tower before, Zhang Ji, who was quite famous in the Sanfu area; This person came from a wealthy family, had a prominent family, and had intersections with many scholars in Liangzhou. Xun Gang must have taken advantage of his fame to take Jincheng without blood.

"Han Gong, it's been a long time."

Zhang Ji went out of the city to greet him, but Han Sui was submissive and did not dare to speak; Seeing this, Zhang Ji knew that he was nervous, so he smiled and said: "When I saw Xiliang the day before yesterday, it has been some time since now, and Han Gong is still the same as before!" ”

Han Suinuonuo replied: "It has been two years since the last parting, and Zhang Xianling's demeanor is still the same, but Han Wenyue is no longer a guest, but a prisoner. ”

How could he not think so? Not to mention that his territory was occupied by the enemy, and he rode back alone, isn't it just a sheep into the tiger's mouth? Zhang didn't let people tie him up, it was enough to give him face.

"Why did Han Gong say this? Now that Your Excellency is still a guest, why do you come to the prisoner? ”

Han Sui was shocked when he heard this, and when he heard what he said, he asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

"It's not a secret, Xun Hussar has admired Your Excellency for a long time, and today he ordered us to take the city, but he said, 'If Han Gong comes back, he must treat him with courtesy';

"This ......"

Han Sui is also a prince, and he has a lot of ambition in his bones, but what kind of character is Cao Cao? At least Han Sui himself felt that he couldn't compare with him; When the time comes, will he still have a place to show his strength?

But now Cao Cao's power is in full swing, and he has the potential to dominate the world; Even if he occupies Liangzhou, it will only hit the stone with an egg, which will only increase the casualties! When the time comes, he was defeated by Cao Cao and went into exile, and he was a hero in the past, but it was just a joke!

"Let me think twice ......"

Zhang saw that Han Sui was already moved, and said again: "Xun Hussar said, if General Han intends to return, please play Your Majesty, and General Feng will be the general of Zhengdong, the marquis, the glory of the ancestors, and the glory of the ancestors, all in the general's thoughts." ”

Han Sui was moved by these words, before going to Xuchang, Liu Xie named Ma Teng as the general of Zhengxi, but he was the general of Zhendong, one step smaller, so that he was always at Ma Teng's feet. is as proud as Han Sui, but he is still very aggrieved.

But he decided to think again......

Zhang invited Han Sui into Jincheng, thought he was a guest, and waited for Han Sui's reply; On the other hand, he wrote to Xun Gang in Chang'an, explaining that Han Sui hesitated and asked Xun Gang to take countermeasures as soon as possible.

The words were divided into two ends, only saying that Ma Chao, Pang De, and Ma Dai rode straight to Wuwei. However, it is said that there are Anding, Longxi, Zhangye, Dunhuang, Wudu, Jiuquan, Wuwei, Jincheng, Xiping, Beidi, and Hanyang counties in Liangzhou. Wuwei is located in the middle of Liangzhou, dividing Liangzhou into two, with Jiuquan, Zhangye and Dunhuang counties in the north, adjacent to the West Sea; It is close to Anding, Jincheng, Longxi and other places in the south, and it is the seat of Liangzhou.

With Ma Chao's thoughts, he thought that if he occupied the Liangzhou Governance Office, he would be able to regain control of Liangzhou; But going so deep into the West Sea and being surrounded by Cao's army at that time is not a good thing.

But it doesn't seem to be that moment coming.

Just as Ma Chao and the others rushed to the foot of Wuwei City, suddenly ten thousand arrows were fired, and everyone was isolated from the moat. Ma Chao was shocked, only to find that the flag on the city tower had already been changed, and Wuwei didn't know when it fell!

"General Ma Chao, Wuwei is already our territory, and I hope the general will retreat quickly!"

At this moment, a young man came out of the city tower, who was seven points similar to Cao Cao, and it was Cao Pi. Xun Gang, Guo Jia and others gave Cao Pi the great credit before, and it was this sneak attack on Liangzhou. Of the many counties under Liangzhou, nearly half of them were taken by Cao Pi, and hundreds of people were sent to guard them. This kind of credit will definitely not be small.

Now Xun Gang has occupied all the five counties of Longxi, Jincheng, Xiping, Anding, and Wuwei, and the northern part of Liangzhou is slowly settled, so it can almost be said that Ma Teng is homeless.

"Shaft, dare to deceive me!"

Although Ma Chao didn't know Cao Pi, he definitely knew that he was Cao Cao's son, and he was immediately furious, drew a bow and arrow, and wanted to shoot Cao Pi to death, and when the arrow was about to reach Cao Pi, a Fang Tian painting halberd stabbed horizontally from the oblique side, just under Ma Chao's arrow.

"Lu Bu!"

That person was Lu Bu, but when Ma Chao saw Lu Bu, he smiled wildly and drank: "The general of the defeated army dares to show his face!" ”

"Ma Chao, you are really simple-minded, haven't you seen it until now, I was defeated in the previous battle?"

Ma Chao's eyes froze when he heard this, and then he felt that Lu Bu's moves before were sluggish, and he remembered that Han Sui's troops would attack him in the future, and he must have fallen into Xun Gang's discordant plan, so he was furious and drank: "Lu Bu, I don't believe that I can't defeat you, come out and fight with me quickly!" ”

"Let's see your own situation first!"

In an instant, I only felt the sound of horses' hooves, Xu Chu on the left, Wei Yan on the right, and Fei Fei seemed to be killing the general. Ma Chao was furious, so he wanted to ride his horse to meet the enemy, if it wasn't for Pound to stop him, he was afraid that he would have rushed in.

"Young master! The lord still doesn't know that Liangzhou has been lost, and if the three of us fall into death, the lord will inevitably be captured in the future! For today's plan, I should be patient for the time being, go to Hanzhong to defect to Zhang Lu, and then make plans! ”

"Damn, damn!"

Ma Chao was so angry that he almost fainted, but he also knew that he couldn't act rashly now, so he hurriedly fled with Pang De and went to Yangping to Zhang Lu.

Xu Chu and Wei Yan did not chase after him, and each of them received a task to occupy the remaining counties of Liangzhou.

After Xun Gang learned the news that Liangzhou had been pacified, he hurriedly asked the master to list the merits of the generals and report them to Xuchang, and Liu Xie ordered Xun Gang to act cheaply, as long as it was a position in the court, Xun Gang could be appointed at will, which was equivalent to indirectly expanding Xun Gang's power.

At this time, those who opposed the crusade against Liangzhou at the beginning regretted it, and they didn't make an inch, but let those who were originally under their feet run to their heads, how can they bear it? They went to Xun Gang in groups to admit their mistakes, and even bribed Xun Gang to make Xun Gang falsely report his credit.

How could Xun Gang do what they wanted? In just two days, he made a list of those who bribed him and asked him to falsely report his meritorious deeds, and ordered Si Li's lieutenant and Chang'an Taishou Zhong Xuan to engage in it in accordance with the law and behead the public. Suddenly, the sound shook the northwest, and everyone was in awe.

Han Sui also chose to take refuge in Cao Cao under the persuasion of Cheng Gongying, and was sent to Xudu, and was sealed as General Zhengdong and Tinghou, but his personal freedom was restricted, and he was afraid that he would no longer have the ability to compete in the world.

Xun Gang's rewards and punishments in the northwest time were clear, his prestige was remarkable, and everyone obeyed; Even Zhong Xuan and Zhang Ji, the courtiers of the Northwest, were extremely convinced of Xun Gang, and they no longer dared to bully him for his young age.

Just kill three or four Cao Cao's cronies, with their courage, I'm afraid they won't be able to do it.

There were a total of six Cao Cao's cronies who stayed here in Xun Gang before, namely Cao Hong, Li Tong, Wang Zhong, Lu Zhao, Cai Yang, and Liu Xun; Except for the first two, the last four were all beheaded for bribery.

Fortunately, Cao Hong was greedy for money and stingy, and was called "too stingy for money", and he was reluctant to give Xun Gang money, otherwise he might have become the first Cao Cao clan to be killed by the ministers of the court. And Li Tong is known for his loyalty and bravery, and he will not bend his knees for this little merit and small profit, so he escaped.

However, there are pros and cons to this matter, Xun Gang has a prominent reputation in the northwest, and there is a great tendency to surpass Cao Cao for a while; Cao Cao, who pacified the state and expelled Xianbei, originally praised Xun Gang's behavior, but Cheng Yu and others told Cao Cao that he needed to be careful of Xun Gang's dominance. Cao Cao was suspicious by nature, so he didn't dare to let Xun Gang stay in the northwest, so he used the edict of the Son of Heaven to seal Xun Gang as the great Sima, and ordered Xun Gang to lead the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to Xuchang, and the northwest affairs were left to Zhong Xuan to deal with.

Da Sima is nominally the highest military governor in the country, but Cao Cao has long concentrated all the military power on the post of prime minister, and Xun Gang, the big Sima, is completely an idle official raised in the capital, and he has the name of the three dukes.

However, this is also Xun Gang's expectation, as long as he makes a name for himself at this moment, many things will be easy to do in the future. After all, convince people with virtue and reason, and let others feel that Xun Gang is stronger than Cao Cao, and others will be willing to work for you.

Cao Pi received the favor of Xun Gang, made a lot of meritorious achievements, was crowned by Cao Cao, guarded Luoyang, and left Xuchang.

Guo Jia, Xu Chu, Wei Yan, Lu Bu and others also broke away from Xun Gang and returned to Cao Cao's hands.

For a while, it seemed that everything in Xun Gang had returned to the original point.

However, before Cao Pi left, he pleaded hard for Xun Gang, asking Cao Cao not to be too vigilant against Xun Gang, so as not to lose the heart of the world's scholars, Cao Cao felt that he seemed to be too vigilant against Xun Gang.

And at this moment, the accident suddenly happened......
