286. The Son and the Father

>,!

Not worried about Xu Shuzhi's safety, Deng Ji personally picked a tun of men and horses to escort him in the black iron guard.

Since the formation of Deng Ji's Black Iron Guard, the number of people has often been unfixed. After the last battle with Yang Wanyi, some supplements were drawn from the soldiers, and now there are 1,500 of them, and there are three songs.

The head of the Black Iron Guard who escorted Xu Shu was Xiong Zhi, although he was born five big and three thick on the outside, he was very fine on the inside, so he was selected by Deng Ji. In addition, there were more than a dozen scribes in the envoy team, and a female doctor and craftsman belonging to the Black Iron Guard.

Han Sui of Jincheng County of the Tun Army has a very high prestige in Liangzhou, the wealthy family has returned to the heart, not to mention the many military horses of his own family, and he has to be attached to the Qiang people of Liangzhou, not counting Yang Qiuchengyi and other dependents, there are more than 40,000 horsemen under his command. Under Ma Teng's tent, there were two rare warriors in the world, Ma Xiaowei Pang De, but they were no match for Han Sui and suffered several defeats.

After Deng Ji's forces invaded Liangzhou in the west, Han Sui also began to take precautions, and sent Cheng Yi, Yang Qiu, Ma Wan and other vassals to settle down, in order to contain Chang'an.

wanted to unite the army and compete with Deng Ji, but because of the death of his previous wife, Ma Teng was like a mad dog, and only wanted to fight to the death with his righteous brother. forced Han Sui's soldiers to look inward first, striving to stabilize Liangzhou in the short term, and then make other plans.

Defeated by Han Sui, Ma Tengtun's army was in Wuwei County, Guzang and Wuwei County. In Guzang City, when he heard that Deng Ji's envoy came, Ma Teng invited him in, and Xu Shu saluted: "The ancestor of the general is General Fubo, and the ancestor of my lord is the marquis of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai. Now I heard that the general and Han Sui were not in a good position, and my lord sent a certain salute, and I was willing to use the Sizhou soldiers as the general's arms! ”

Ma Teng replied with a slight sneer: "Why is what you say untrue? Bustling. But profit comes and goes! Deng Muan went out to help a certain person. Isn't it for Liangzhou? ”

The other party is not stupid. Xu Shu said with a smile: "The meaning of Chang'an, the two armies are well aligned with each other." After the defeat of Han Sui, my lord will stabilize the two counties of the northern land to support the people, and the rest of the land will be ruled by the general, how about it? ”

Ma Teng was still hesitating, and Ma had already roared angrily behind him: "Zhangye Juyan is a foreign country, Liangzhou only has nine counties, and the Ru family has won the Tianshui Wudu Longxi." Add two more counties, and you will get five out of nine! ”

Captain Pang De also objected, and rushed out to Ma Teng and said: "The words of Kanto are not credible!" A certain person who has lived in the border area for a long time has also heard that Deng Mu'an cheated grain in Jingzhou, so he and his alliance army broke Han Sui, and Jincheng is probably not a general! ”

Ma Teng didn't say anything, and Xu Shu laughed and interjected: "In this troubled world, Liu Biao is honest and righteous, but in fact he is cowardly, so my lord uses deceit to do it." This is also a wise sight! The general has been fighting horses for half his life, and he has won the three armies. Reigning in Liangzhou for many years, known as a good reputation, with more than 10,000 armor elites under his command, how can Liu's cousins be comparable? If Han Sui is defeated, his defeated army should be changed to the general's account, how can he obey us outsiders? How can Jincheng County not get it? ”

"Father! This person is used to clever words, and he can't be trusted! Ma shouted against it: "Don't fall for it, if you lead the thief army into Liangzhou, you will be infamous!" ”

"Humph!" Ma Teng snorted coldly at Ma: "I have only been in the army for two years, how can I interfere in major affairs and be rude in the tent of the Chinese army?" ”

Ma hurriedly argued: "My son doesn't do anything more, but he only plans for his father, but he doesn't dare to forget his filial piety, and he is eager to cross the border and beg his father for forgiveness!" ”

Leaving Xu Shu in the field, Ma Teng asked the eldest son slowly: "In your opinion, what should I do?" ”

The horse was lifted again, and the fierce light was already approaching Xu Shu, and said: "Han Wenyue's confidant Cheng Gongying has communicated with his father several times, just seeking reconciliation. Kill this person, please join Han Sui with the rank, unite the heroes of Xiliang, and the soldiers will go east to seize the land of Sizhou! ”

Ma Teng asked Xu Shu with a smile: "What do you think?" ”

Xu Shu didn't have any color on his face, and only replied with a smile: "This may also be!" Although the general has the hatred of his wife, he conspires with Han Sui in Sizhou, and it is expected that he should not be ashamed of his husband in the world! I just don't know who should be the master after Sizhou? ”

Before he could hear the provocative words behind him, Ma Teng had already scolded Ma and said, "Can you smell it?" Outsiders all know the enmity between your mother and your younger brother, but as a son of man and a brother, he doesn't think about it at all, he just wants to be friends with the enemy, and he is really a vertical son! ”

showed no mercy in front of many people, and scolded the horse so red that he withdrew from the tent with hatred.

Ma Teng said to Xu Shu: "A certain army in a troubled world, not to seek the male lord of Xiliang, at the beginning, he was just worried about the family and the traitor, and he tried his best to do it." Unexpectedly, he was the first to be the hero, and he couldn't keep his wife when he was old, and he hated it all his life! This revenge must be avenged, if Deng Sizhou sent troops to help and capture Han Sui, he would like to serve Chang'an as the main and not regenerate rebellion! ”

Whether he will keep his promise and serve Deng Ji as the main will be seen in the future, and if Ma Teng can agree to the two families to attack Han Sui, Xu Shu is already very happy, and the purpose of this mission will be achieved.

Ma Teng stayed in Guzang for three days before returning to Chang'an to repay Deng Ji.

Hearing that Xu Shu went out of the city and wanted to return to Chang'an, Ma Zhao's cousin Ma Dai, who had never been weak and had always been close to him, said: "Deng Ji's thief Chen Bing wants to enter Xiliang, but my father only remembers the past grudge, refuses to reconcile with Han Wenyue, and wants to lead Deng Jun into the Kou, which is a big mistake!" ”

Ma Dai said in horror: "The eldest brother is the son of man, how can he say that his uncle is lost?" ”

Ma suddenly glared at him angrily: "You also look at me like this? ”

Knowing that his brother was irritable, the young man Ma Dai hurriedly argued: "Brother doesn't dare! ”

Ma Nai said: "At this time, only you and my brother are here, it is not my father's fault, I am really worried!" This state has been in turmoil for a long time, and it is difficult to get it, so why is it as the foundation of Dongtu according to Guanzhong? Father's ambition stops at Xiliang, not Ma's far-sighted strategy! ”

Young boys, who doesn't want to have the opportunity to dominate the world? Ma Dai has always served this cousin Wu Yong, but in just three or two sentences, he was already enthusiastic, and nodded in agreement: "The ancestors of the Ma family are a hundred times stronger than the Yang family of the Yuan family, but the descendants have to live in the border area, how can they be willing?" The eldest brother is very clear-sighted, but his uncle doesn't allow it! ”

"Father doesn't allow it, the rest can do it on your own, and then report it to you!" Do you want to hide it from your uncle? Ma Dai's eyes widened, and he listened to Ma continue: "Xu Shu is also a heavy minister of Deng Ji, although I see that although he and others are all riding, there are still civil servants and daughters in the entourage, and the line should be slow, if the military horses are secretly sent to catch up and intercept and kill in the middle of the road, how can Deng Mu'an give up?" When his father heard about it, he was afraid that the Sizhou army would retaliate, so he had to make an appointment with Han Wen to abandon his former enmity and join forces and fight the enemy! ”

Ma Dai put away his surprise, thought for a while, and replied, "It must be so!" Only the eldest brother needs to be careful, the bad uncle is a big thing, I am afraid that he will be heavily blamed! ”

"If I do this alone, it will be difficult for my father to tolerate!" Ma shook his head and looked at the young cousin with his eyes: "The second brother of Xiutie is younger, and he is not enough to take care of things, so I can only use my younger brother!" Thou hast not yet weakened thy crown, and thy father has always remembered his deceased uncle, so thou hast the intention of condemning the sin, and thou shalt be punished lightly! You can lead 3,000 troops and horses under my command out of the city to chase and kill Xu Shu, and when I return, my father will be punished, and you and my brothers will shoulder it side by side, how about it? ”

The Ma family often lives in the border area, and the family of the children has been practicing martial arts since childhood, and they are all fierce, but who has not yet been weak to lead the army? Ma Dai was incredulous at first, but when he reacted, he immediately nodded with joy and nodded in agreement: "Good!" ”

To be entrusted to Ma Dai to subordinate his own military horses, the horses will send them out of the city.

At the city gate today, Pang De was inspecting, and when he saw that the horse department wanted to leave the city, he hurriedly stopped: "Who dares to use the army and horses privately without the order of the lord?" ”

Immediately, he said: "Let my brother go out, and I will go down to my father's account to ask for sin!" ”

Pang Deshang didn't dare to show favoritism, and after hesitating, Ma had angrily reprimanded: "I am a young general, who really dares to stop me?" ”

Ma Zi stepped forward and scolded the sergeant who opened the city gate, although Pang De was dissatisfied, he did not dare to stop him, and Ma Dai had led three thousand horsemen out of the city.

When Ma Dai rushed out of the city, Ma Fang and Pang De returned to Ma Teng, knelt on the ground, and cried: "The difficulty of mother and brother, the son will not dare or forget!" However, compared with Ma's major events, it should also be light! Today, Deng Muan is only a cavalry soldier of the four armies, but he has offended the world, how can he rule Liangzhou? I hope that my father will focus on the foundation, temporarily join forces with Han Sui, drive Yang Qiucheng Yima to play with Qiang Hu as the forward, take Guanzhong first, and then try to take revenge! ”

Ma Teng said impatiently: "If you are planning for big things, you should also look at the sky and know how to advance and retreat, otherwise it will be the cause of the family's trouble!" Today, even Han Sui can't be defeated, only trapped in one place, how can he say that the world is competing for power? This matter has been calculated, so why say? ”

"Those who want to do great things, who do not risk their lives and face all difficulties? How can you be afraid of the difficulties and hold back? Ma tried hard and said: "The people of Xiliang can get more than 100,000 people by uniting, just as the horse is crisscrossing the world, how can it be easy to live under people?" Han Sui is old, his children have no talent, if he has to take Guanzhong, his land should be owned by my Ma clan after all! ”

"Liangzhou has been in turmoil for many years, and the people are lacking, and I am also lacking!" Ma Teng rarely showed a trace of weakness on his face, and explained to his own son: "Han Sui is old, and I am also old!" The heart of dominance has been extinct, and there is no other thought, I only hope that you and Ma Dai Ma Hugh Ma Tie will have a good end! It is okay to bend his knees and descend to Deng Mu'an! ”

Ma never heard his father say that he had no ambitions, so he stayed for a while, and said: "Father wants to surrender to Deng Mu'an, but I am afraid he can't get it!" The child has sent Brother Dai to lead the army out of the city to chase and kill Deng Ji's envoys, although Brother Dai is not weak, but his courage is commendable, it is expected that Xu Shu will not return to Chang'an! ”

"Rebel!"

Ma Teng heard this, and hurriedly stood up, his face flushed, his whole body trembled, and his chest rose and fell violently like a bellows. He glared at his henchman General Pang De and asked angrily: "Why don't you intercept it?" Still not chasing? ”

Pang De hurriedly knelt beside the horse, and said: "I don't want the lord to let the Kanto servants enter Liangzhou, so I didn't stop it, and I didn't want to chase it!" Please, the Lord punish sin! ”

It is an unexpected joy to be able to get Pound's support temporarily! Ma Zai put his head on the ground and said: "If my father wants to demote Deng Ji, please behead him and send his head to Chang'an to ask for forgiveness!" ”

"Choke!" Pulling out his sword, although Ma Teng was very angry, he had faded from a tyrant who wanted to dominate the world to an ordinary old man who cared for his sons and nephews, how could he really kill the only adult eldest son?

After holding the sword for a long time, the saber was finally thrown to the ground, and Ma Teng said gloomily: "Let's go! Pang Lingming sent an envoy to spread the word to Han Sui, I am willing to break the fight and form an alliance to defeat Deng Ji together!
