In the military tent, Ma Hong was lying in the belly of the horse, surrounded by matches.

Ma Xiu lifted the horse's belly, saw the sleeping Ma Hong, reached out to probe Ma Hong's snort, touched Ma Hong's heart again, and said with a relieved smile: "Great, brother-in-law has survived the crisis." ”

Gan Ning, Liu Ye, Ma Tie, Yang Fu and other talents who stayed by Ma Hong's side all night breathed a sigh of relief and went to rest.

At all times, the power of human beings is vulnerable to nature.

After another three days, the snow continued to fall, Cao Cao could no longer sit still, and in the middle of the night, without saying a word, he only led more than 300 elite troops to the north, crossed the frozen river and retreated.

Cao Jun in the city saw that the commander and generals were gone, so he had to open the city gate and surrender.

When Ma Hong entered Zheng County, he couldn't bear to open his eyes, there were more than a dozen snowdrifts with large grain piles near Cao Ying, and Gan Ning asked people to clear the snow on the grain piles and see what was covered under the snow.

It's all white bones, it's all bones, it's human bones. After learning about it, Gan Ning learned that Cao Jun slaughtered most of the people in Zheng County, and then took their meat to eat.

Ma Hong ordered that all these bones be buried, and then again ordered the massacre of the surrendered Cao army, leaving no one behind. None of the generals raised any objection to Ma Hong's order.

Sometimes there is a big difference between killing people and cannibalism.

Ma Hong thinks so.

In this day and age, he can understand killing, but not yet cannibalism.

After that, Ma Hong spread the news that Cao Jun wantonly slaughtered the people in Zheng County and ate the flesh of the people, and spread it to the princes of the world. He also specially wrote a poem for Cao Cao to "praise" Cao Cao's glorious deeds, and the poem is called "Human Flesh Cao".

Cao Cao and Ma Hong after the battle of Huayin and Zheng County, the two sides suffered heavy losses, without consultation, but a very tacit consensus was reached, Ma Hong occupied the territory including Chang'an, west of Huashan, and Cao Cao occupied the territory north of Huayin. Since then, Ma Hong has occupied half of Sizhou's territory. [Including the whole of Shaanxi]

After the heavy snow stopped, Ma Hong led his army to slowly retreat to Chang'an along the road and brought back the captive Zhang He.

10 years of Jian'an, March.

It was the busiest time in Chang'an, Ma Hong built civil engineering in Chang'an, because a large number of people gathered in Chang'an, it was necessary to build civil housing and public buildings, and Ma Hong also intended to build Chang'an into the largest city in the world. Chang'an received nearly 200,000 people who migrated from Hongnong County and Hedong County, and Chang'an is now the most populous city in the world.

Ma Hong began to use Chang'an City as a political and military center, and then asked Liu Ye to return to Hanzhong and Hanzhong Li Yan Yangyi and others to supervise Hanzhong, and Pang Tong returned to Liu Qi in Hanyang County, Liangzhou, and served as Liu Qi's military general, and led the government affairs of Hanyang County.

After Cao Cao returned to Xudu, he slaughtered his soldiers to Ma Hong, and publicized his "good name" to the outside world, which was very generous. At this time, Ma Hong's official position was directly changed from the county guard to the general of Zhengxi, which seemed to be excellent on the surface, but this also directly showed that Cao Cao believed that Ma Hong was the master of Yongliang.

The rank of general of Zhengxi is greater than that of Liu Qi's general Zhenxi, and it is also greater than Liu Biao's general Zhennan, and Cao Cao's direct appointment of Ma Hong as the general of Zhengxi also wants to further deepen the contradiction between Ma Hong and Liu Biao. After all, the last time, Xun Yu played some tricks in Xudu, so he asked Liu Biao to order Liu Bei to withdraw his troops, leaving Ma Hong in a lonely battle. Cao Cao didn't mind giving Ma Hong a false name, so that the contradiction between Liu Biao and Ma Hong would continue to deepen, and it would be best if the two could fight.

Ma Hong also knew Cao Cao's intentions, but he still accepted this official position, and Pang Tong, Liu Ye and others also persuaded Ma Hong to accept it.

10 years of Jian'an, April.

Ma Hong received a gift from Yuan Shang, which was brought by Shangguan Qian.

Ma Hong personally went out of the city to greet Shangguan Qian, Shangguan Qian's family sending team was very small, only five people, in Shangguan Qian's words, they passed through Cao Cao's territory, if it was too grand, it is estimated that they would not be able to wear Cao Cao's territory. Ma Hong also praised Shangguan Qian's good ability to send people from Cao Cao's territory.

"Zhiyuan, long time no see." Ma Hong said to Shangguan Qian cordially.

"General Ma, I haven't seen you for a long time, my lord asked me to say hello to General Ma on his behalf."

Shangguan Qian said with a smile, he looked a little tired all the way.

"Zhiyuan, I don't know which one is General Yuan's sister?" Ma Hong smiled slightly.

Shangguan Qian smiled slightly and said softly, "Please also ask General Ma to guess." ”

There are five people in Shangguan Qian's entourage, plus Shangguan Qian is three men, a woman, and a child. There is no need to guess at all, it must be the woman, the woman is about seventeen or eighteen years old, under the smooth forehead, a pair of distant mountain-like eyebrows are soft and delicate, the thin waist makes a thin belt tie, there is a kind of grace from the bones, she is slim, thin, beautiful and unparalleled, this girl is born with a softness, which makes people feel pity. The so-called red face and troubled water do not have to pour all beings, but that softness can instantly drill into your heart, allowing you to work hard for her in bed, obviously the soft woman in front of you has such conditions.

Hey! Yuan Shao! I've never seen you, but your daughter looks like this, how handsome you must be! I heard that Yuan Shang is like you, and I will have the opportunity to see what Yuan Shang looks like in the future.

"Suffered all the way."

Ma Hong smiled like water and stepped forward to the weak woman, stretched out his hand to wrap the girl's hands in the palm of his hand, and looked at the girl with a pair of peach blossom eyes. Although Ma Hong is not a veteran of the love field, this pair of peach blossom eyes is very seductive, and it is difficult for an inexperienced girl to resist the temptation.

The girl was wrapped in Ma Hong's palm, first stunned, and then blushed, wanting to break free from Ma Hong's hands.

Ma Hong chuckled and said: "It's all a family in the future, it's okay, Mrs. has cold hands, I'll warm you up." ”

Shangguan Qian coughed, Ma Hong looked back at Shangguan Qian and smiled: "General Yuan's sister is talented, Hongwangzhi, her heart is drunk, and she can't help herself, which makes Zhiyuan smile." ”

Shangguan Qian was obviously a little embarrassed, he walked up to Ma Hong and whispered, "General Ma, this ......"

"What's wrong? Zhiyuan, don't look like you want to talk and stop, if you have anything to say, if you can't say it now, let's go back to the city. It's windy here, let's go back to the city to talk about things, and you're hungry all the way! ”

After Ma Hong finished speaking, he smiled and took the girl's hand and walked towards the city gate. secretly said in my heart: Look, how obviously I love Yuan Shang's sister, so Yuan Shang should be relieved!

Yang Fu beckoned Shangguan Qian and his entourage into the city, Shangguan Qian looked at Yang Fu with an embarrassed face, and said, "Can you let General Ma let go of his hand first, this is a little inappropriate." ”

Yang Fu glanced at me and I understood, walked quickly to Ma Hong's side, and said something in Ma Hong's ear, and Ma Hong let go of his hand.

Then the girl shyly hid her hand in her sleeve, then lowered her head and said, "General Ma......"

"Don't be so shy, just call your husband." Ma Hong smiled.

"That's... General Ma, you... Recognize the wrong person. ”

"Oh!" Ma Hong reacted after a sigh, looked at the girl, and said, "What did you say?" ”

"Well, I'm just Miss's maid."

“……”

Ma Hong's body froze, he looked back at Shangguan Qian, and Shangguan Qian also looked at Ma Hong with an embarrassed expression. Ma Hong closed his eyes, opened his eyes, closed his eyes, opened his eyes, and repeated several times in a row.

Only then did I seriously look at the child standing next to Shangguan Qian, who was a little girl, about ten years old.

…… It's a bit unreasonable, it shouldn't be like this, what's the use of marrying such a loli? What's the use? Yuan Shang, tell me, what's the use? Is it for me to raise her for another five years and then use it? (To be continued.) )
