Chapter 247 Qing Jun vacated his troops on his side horse, and when he heard the battle situation, Han Sui returned to defense

The above book mentioned that Jiang Xu saw Ma Teng return safely, and hurriedly reported to him: "Lord Qiqi, the angel sent by the Son of Heaven is waiting in the camp!" ”

Ma Teng hurried back to the camp.

Dong Cheng and the two people around him were waiting in front of the Chinese army's big tent.

Seeing Ma Teng from afar, Dong Cheng took three steps and two steps to greet him: "The general is busy with war, and the little old man has the emperor's order, so there are many disturbances, and I hope to take responsibility!" ”

"Uncle Guo is polite, you and I are ministers in the same palace, and we are all serving the Son of Heaven. Don't see you for years, you and I are old! Ma Teng handed over the war horse to others, and walked towards the big tent of the Chinese army with Dong Cheng.

Leaving others outside, the two walked into the Chinese army tent one after another.

Seeing that there was no one next to him, Dong Cheng took out something from his arms and said with an urgent expression: "Shoucheng, this is a metaphor given to you by Your Majesty." ”

Ma Teng took it and looked at it, quickly closed it, and then asked: "Uncle Guo, today Han Wenyue is about to trap me on the periphery, even if I have the heart of the king, I can't do anything!" ”

Dong Cheng smiled slightly and said, "This time, King Qin originally wanted to invite Uncle Liu Huang, the general of the chariot cavalry. However, Uncle Huang threw a mouse taboo, lest Cao Mengde be unfavorable to the Son of Heaven! That's why it's a risky move! The old man also got the emperor's uncle's advice this time, so he dared to come to invite the general. As for the Korean Covenant, he will retire and return to the state in the near future! ”

"Oh?! Han Wenyue is a pro-Cao faction, could it be that Uncle Huang also said that he was moved? ”

"No, no!" Dong Cheng said with a smile. "Uncle Huang has sent someone to inform Yuan Tan and ask him to send troops to attack Han Sui!"

"I see!" Only then did Ma Teng understand.

……

So, Ma Teng ordered the soldiers to defend strictly and not to fight, so as to recharge their energy and prepare to go to the land of Sanfu to rescue King Qin! On the one hand, he sent people to Jincheng to inform Xia Yu.

Upon learning of this, Xia Yu hurriedly sent someone to invite his uncle Dong Cheng to enter the city to rest.

Ma Teng's strategist Jia Hong offered advice to Ma Teng: "My lord, although Cao Cao's troops are far inferior to Uncle Liu Huang, there are hundreds of thousands. There are three auxiliary places, and the power is far beyond what our army can contend with! The subordinates have a plan, and I hope the lord will think deeply. ”

"Please tell me clearly!" Jia Hong was the only advisor in front of Ma Teng, so although Ma Teng did not obey him, he often asked him for advice.

"The combined forces of the four counties of Liangzhou may be able to compete with Cao Cao. Now that the lord and Jincheng Taishou are together, why don't you send Uncle Dong Guo to Longshang and Longxi counties and summon them to come?! First, the strength of our army has increased greatly; Second, why don't the lord take the opportunity to annex them and unify Liangzhou, once the Son of Heaven is rescued, he can also invite merit and receive rewards! ”

"Will they agree?"

"There is an edict from the Son of Heaven and angel lobbying, how can there be a gift?! Besides, Uncle Liu Huang will definitely take the opportunity to raise troops and attack Xuchang in one fell swoop and rescue the Son of Heaven. When the time comes, the participants are all meritorious heroes, and they have no excuses? ”

Ma Teng heard that it was reasonable, so he found Ma Chao and asked him to take care of the soldiers and horses, so he took Jia Hong into the city overnight and discussed with Dong Cheng.

After listening to Ma Teng's opinion, Xia Yu was also quite supportive.

Dong Cheng counted it carefully, and then said to the two: "It's the right thing to go." It's just that the old man is not familiar with the road, won't he delay time? ”

"Don't worry, I'll send someone to escort you to the old man immediately!" Ma Teng immediately sent someone to find Ma Xiu and asked him to escort his uncle Dong Cheng to Longshang and Longxi counties.

Han Sui frequently sent soldiers and horses to the front of the battle to challenge, but found that no matter how insulting, no one met the battle.

On this day, Yan Xing led troops to challenge.

After begging and scolding for a long time, he saw that the other party had no response, so he had to lead his troops back to the camp.

Seeing him return, Han Sui asked, "Could it be that they still haven't reacted?" ”

"Nope!"

Could it be that they have other plans?!

Thinking of this, Han Sui turned around and asked Yang Fu: "It's really weird!" Ma Shoucheng, why don't you wait for reinforcements? ”

"I heard that after Ma Chao returned to the camp that day, three outsiders came to Ma Shoucheng's camp. Later, Xia Yu was connected to Jincheng! Yang Fu said thoughtfully, "According to the report of the Tanma, Ma Shoucheng's youngest son, Ma Xiu, took hundreds of cavalry and escorted the three to the direction of Wuwei!"

"Is that really the case?! Could it be that they want to invite Longshang and Longxi to come to reinforcements? Han Sui was shocked when he heard this, his brows furrowed, pacing back and forth, looking down and thinking of countermeasures.

At this moment, a person ran in outside, knelt on the ground with a "poof", and shouted loudly: "Report, Lord Qiqi, something is wrong!" ”

Han Sui, who was looking down to think about things, was startled by this sound, looked up and saw a scout kneeling in the middle, and asked unhappily, "Why are you so flustered?" ”

"Returning to the lord, Yuan Tan of Jizhou raised 50,000 troops to invade the state. The vanguard has already broken through the Baima Pass and Shouyang City, and General Li Kan is holding Leping. It's just that there are too few soldiers and horses in Leping City, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to support. ”

"What?" Han Sui was shocked, his body shook, and he fell down.

Yuan Tan raised troops to attack and annex the state?!

It has already broken the White Horse Pass and Shouyang City?!

If Leping is broken, won't it be Jinyang?

Yang Fu hurriedly persuaded: "Lord, Jinyang has two generals, Tian Le and Yang Kui, guarding it, there should be no problem!" As long as we come back as soon as possible, why be afraid of Yuan Tanhu? ”

"That's it! Ordered the three armies to set off immediately and return to the state! Han Sui said bitterly.

Yan Xing said to Han Sui: "Father-in-law, please go back with my cavalry of 5,000 and go back first!" He was worried about his wife in Jinyang City, so he wanted to go back early.

Thinking of the abilities of Tian Le and Yang Kui, Han Sui believed in Yan Xing even more, so he nodded and ordered: "It's okay, you hurry to Jinyang!" ”

Yan Xing agreed, and left in a hurry.

Han Sui's soldiers and horses retreated overnight, and Ma Teng did not send troops to chase after him. Because he has more important things to do?

Dong Cheng and Ma Xiu, who were sent to Longshang County and Longxi County, had already come to Longxi City and met Li Ben, the Taishou of Longxi.

Li Ben, the word Xiangong, the ancestor is the flying general Li Guang, it is said that this person is skilled in swords and horses, and he can do everything with a bow and arrows. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he killed several Yellow Turban Qu Shuai by himself, and led troops to kill countless Yellow Turban rebels, so that no one in Longxi dared to smuggle the Yellow Turban.

Knowing Dong Cheng's intention, he immediately agreed, and said to the two: "Your Majesty is ashamed, but it is our courtiers who are incompetent!" Now I feel that Shou has become a brother and is righteous, and I am willing to raise the whole county to match each other. ”

"Thank you for your righteousness, and thank your father for your success." Matthew hurriedly thanked Li Benxing.

Dong Cheng held Li Ben's hands and thanked him again and again: "The general is full of loyalty, the old man is admiring, he will play tomorrow in the future, and he will make contributions to the general!" ”

"It is the duty of the courtiers to save the Son of Heaven Luan. Please rest here for a few days, and I will prepare food and grass and set off! ”

"The general prepares the grain and grass first, and the old man and the young man will go to Longlong again!"

"Longshang? It's okay, Longshang Taishou Zhang Yi is good friends with a certain person, and a certain person writes a letter to introduce him to his uncle! With that, Li Ben wrote a letter and handed it to Dong Cheng.

With Li Ben's letter, Zhang Yi, the Taishou of Longshang, agreed to Dong Cheng's request even more happily, and gathered soldiers for several days to straighten out the grain and grass. Two days later, Zhang Yi ordered 30,000 elite soldiers, carried grain and grass, and together with Dong Cheng and Ma Xiu, they came to Longxi.

In Longxi, they would join Li Ben's soldiers and horses and go straight to Jincheng.

The four soldiers and horses were integrated, and Ma Teng was promoted as the commander, Xia Yu, Li Ben and Zhang Yi were the deputy generals, and more than 100,000 soldiers and horses were integrated. Among them, Ma Teng has 50,000 soldiers and horses, Xia Yu has 40,000 soldiers and horses, and Zhang Yi and Li Ben have 30,000 each, totaling 150,000 troops.

Ma Teng made Pang De the vanguard, led 5,000 troops, and went straight to Sanfu.

When the Gaoling guard learned that Ma Teng's soldiers were coming, he immediately sent someone to report the battle to Xudu.

Hearing this, Cao Cao was taken aback and hurriedly summoned all the strategists to discuss.

"Ma Teng joined the soldiers and horses of the four counties of Longshang, Longxi, Jincheng and Wuwei in Liangzhou, and went straight to Sanfu to kill. What should I do? Cao Cao looked at everyone and asked anxiously.

Chen Lin said: "Resist it with a general!" ”

Xun Yu and Cheng Yu both bowed their heads and never spoke, as if they were thinking about a problem.

Cao Cao looked at Chen Lin and did not speak, but looked at Xun Yu and Cheng Yu.

After a while, Xun Yu said: "Prime Minister, why did Ma Teng suddenly commit three auxiliaries? Which one is missing in the city? ”

When Cao Cao heard this, his expression was stunned, and he asked puzzledly: "The hundred officials in the court and the central government, I see them every day, and which one has not been reduced?" ”

"It seems that I haven't seen Uncle Dong Cheng for a few days!?" Hua Xin on the side said suddenly.

Listening to him, Cao Cao also remembered, and scolded angrily: "Dong Chengan dares to harm me!?" ”

"It seems that Ma Teng must have been bewitched by his uncle Dong Cheng, so he sent troops to Sanfu!" Xun Yu seemed to have found the crux of the problem, and said very firmly, "In this case, his grain and grass will definitely not be very sufficient!" The prime minister can make the general lead troops to stop him, and within half a month, he will run out of food and grass, and he can destroy it with his troops! ”

"What Wen Ruo says is true. There are only hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, all of whom are rabble! The lord only needs tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, which is enough to break it! Cheng Yu also said.

Cao Cao asked, "In that case, I will personally lead the troops to meet him for a while!" Is there any movement in Liu Xuande now? Which of the princes of the world are at war? ”

Xun You replied: "Back to the lord, originally Han Sui fought with Ma Teng and Xia Yu in Jincheng. Somehow, Yuan Tan suddenly sent troops to attack Bingzhou, so that Han Sui had to throw off Ma Teng and lead his troops back to defense! However, Liu Bei, the general of the cavalry, also took the initiative to attack! ”

"Oh? Who are they fighting against? ”

"Youzhou Yuan Shang Yuan Xianfu, Liaodong Gongsun Yue!"

"What? Troops at the same time?! What a lot of courage! Cao Cao couldn't help but exclaim.

Xun You continued: "Liu Xuande made his eldest son Liu Chan lead the army, go north out of the Bohai Sea, and approach Youzhou Right Beiping. His subordinate general Wang Lei became famous in a battle, and beheaded several generals of Yuan Shang. It is said that Liu Bei sent more than 100,000 people to Liu Chan; And Liu Li, the second son of the envoy who was sent to attack Gongsun Yue, is still unknown, and it is said that hundreds of 5,000-strong ships were dispatched! ”

Cao Cao asked puzzledly: "Can Yuan Tan send troops to have Liu Xuande in command?" ”

"No one has discovered the problem yet!" Xun You replied.

After listening to him, Cao Cao nodded and said, "It seems that God is helping me!" Immediately send my general order, summon all the generals to come to the discussion! I want to send troops and three auxiliaries to completely kill these thieves! How dare you raise an army against me! ”
