Just as he was trying to find out what caused the Central Plains people from the mouth of King Benhan, a guard ran into the hall: "King, the Central Plains people have sent an envoy. ”

"Please go down and rest first." King Ma Han said to King Benhan: "When I meet the envoy of the Central Plains, everything will be understood. ”

"The people of the Central Plains are cunning like ghosts, don't make a mistake." Afraid of being sent back by King Ma Han, King Ben Han reminded worriedly.

Waving his hand, he motioned for the guards to send him down, and King Ma Han instructed the guards again: "Please meet the envoy of the Central Plains." ”

There are not many people around Cao Shuo who know three Korean.

The one who was ordered to come here was just a captain in the Navy.

He bowed his hand to King Ma Han, and the lieutenant said, "I have come to meet the king on the order of the king of the five states of the Han Dynasty. ”

"The King of the Five States of the Great Han Dynasty?" King Ma Han asked, "What is the origin?" ”

"Hasn't the king heard of the son of the Cao family?" The captain said: "The king of the five states of the Han Dynasty is still the general of our Han Dynasty, commanding the soldiers and horses of the world. When I came to Sanhan this time, I originally planned to make friends with the kings, but I didn't expect Benhan to send troops to attack and harass. The general of my family was furious, and immediately ordered Benhan to be destroyed. I also hope that the king will not oppose us and that we can be good neighbors in the future. ”

"Benhan provoked the Han Dynasty, but we Ma Han didn't." King Ma Han asked, "I don't know what the king of Wuzhou wants me to do?" ”

"It's simple." The lieutenant said, "Hand over the king of Benhan, ask the general to send it down, and then welcome the general to Mahan, and reconcile each other forever." ”

As soon as the lieutenant finished speaking, a Ma Han courtier next to him stood up.

He bowed to the king: "Your Majesty, it's okay to hand over the king of Benhan, but you must not let the Central Plains people bring troops to our Mahan." ”

Squinting at the courtier, the captain snorted coldly and said, "Could it be that you want to be the enemy of our general?" ”

Without waiting for the courtier to speak, King Ma Han waved his hand and motioned for him to stand down.

Frowning, King Ma Han asked the lieutenant, "Is it that if I hand over the king of Benhan and welcome the general to Ma Han, you will not meet us in battle?" ”

"Exactly." The lieutenant said: "What happened to Benhan, I think the king has heard about it, and if he angers the general, the next moment it will no longer be the king's invitation to Mahan, but our army commander will drive straight in and destroy Mahan." ”

"What a big breath!" Another Ma Han courtier stood up: "I want to see how the Central Plains people entered Ma Han, and how they can destroy our Ma Han!" ”

"I think you all know what happened in Benhan before." The lieutenant said, "Ma Han and Ben Han are next to each other, and there have been some fights in the past. With Ma Han's strength, how long will it take to destroy Benhan? ”

King Mahan did not say anything, but the courtier who stood up said, "Although we and Benhan have fought with each other, Benhan has not been destroyed, just because we don't want to do that......

"If the people around the king can make decisions, there is no need for me to stay here." The lieutenant bowed to King Ma Han again: "I will take my leave first, I will reply to the general truthfully, what kind of reply did the king and his subordinates give!" ”

He turned around and was about to leave, when King Ma Han hurriedly shouted, "Please stay!" ”

Stopping, the lieutenant asked, "What else does the king have to say?" ”

"I'm willing to hand over the king of Benhan, but it's just ......" King Mahan hesitated and said, "Can you ask the general not to bring troops to Mahan ......?"

"How can that be?" The captain said: "The general brought the troops here, but for self-protection. If he doesn't bring a single soldier, what should we do if you try to do it against him? ”

"Is there any other way?" King Ma Han said, "Why don't I send someone to send King Benhan over?" ”

The lieutenant pretended to think for a moment, and said to King Ma Han: "The king's request is beyond my authority, and I have to go back and report to the general before I can reply to the king." ”

"Please also ask the messenger to report as soon as possible." King Ma Han stood up and said to the captain, "I'm waiting here. ”

The lieutenant retired and left.

The courtiers who had contradicted him before asked King Ma Han: "Great King, the conditions of the Central Plains must not be agreed!" ”

"What can you do if you don't say yes?" King Mahan said, "It didn't take long for them to destroy Benhan. ”

"So what?" The courtier said: "Our Ma Han is different from Ben Han, Ben Han are all savages, but our Ma Han has elite cavalry, can't we deal with the Central Plains people?" ”

"The elite cavalry is only five hundred, and even the synchronous army is only two or three thousand." King Ma Han said: "You must know that there are tens of thousands of people in the Central Plains. ”

"Three thousand Ma Han people can completely deal with ten thousand Central Plains people." The courtier said: "As long as the king allows it, I will immediately lead troops to crusade against the Central Plains." ”

King Ma Han thought for a moment, waved his hand and said, "No, no, we can't get them, let's wait for their messenger to come, and then make plans." ”

Unable to persuade the king, the courtiers sighed in annoyance.

Another courtier stood up and said to King Ma Han: "Great King, the people of the Central Plains have come here just to ask us to submit. Since you can't beat it, in my opinion, it's better to ......"

"Why not as good as what?" King Ma Han asked.

"It's better to surrender to them." The courtier said: "Jing Hao is too arrogant, he doesn't know how powerful the Central Plains people are, the king must not listen to him." ”

The courtier named Jing Hao was the one who had been clamoring to fight against the Central Plains army before.

was said to be arrogant to his face, Jing Hao was suddenly unhappy.

His eyes widened, and he shouted to the courtier who was speaking: "Okay, you Kuwahara, as a Mahan person, you actually said such spineless words......"

"Backbone?" Kuwabara replied: "If the backbone can make the Central Plains people retreat, I am willing to go to them and ask for a broken bone!" ”

The Samhan people have surnames, which are the result of the mass migration of the Central Plains hundreds of years later.

At this time, the Samhan people did not have a surname at all, and even the first name was only given by their parents at will.

Therefore, the name of the Samhan people sounds somewhat strange.

The two courtiers quarreled, and King Ma Han hurriedly stopped: "The people of the Central Plains are at the door of their homes, what are you two making trouble about?" All we have to do now is wait for their reply. What to do in the end depends on what they say. ”

Jing Hao and Kuwabara glared at each other, and each stepped aside, although they were not convinced by each other, they didn't argue any more.

The lieutenant who had been ordered to see King Ma Han returned to Cao Shuo's side and reported to Cao Shuo what King Ma Han and his courtiers had said.

Signaling the guards to retreat, Cao Shuo asked Guo Jia, "Does Feng Xiao think King Ma Han will send King Ben Han here?" ”

"Nine times out of ten." Guo Jia replied.
