At night, Chang'an City entered the curfew time, and the streets were depressed and silent!

'Stamped, stamped...' the patrol team kept coming and going, stepping solemnly, and the evil spirit was rising

Such a scene is not that Chang'an is facing a threat!

It's just that since Liu Bei occupied Chang'an and planned to move here, he had to face this complicated situation in Chang'an!

Since the death of Dong Zhuo, Chang'an has experienced the rebellion of Li Dao, Guo Yan and others, and then, the great drought in Guanzhong, earthquakes, locust plagues and other things continue to strike, and the people immediately fled to Bashu, Jingzhou, and Hanzhong

Soon after, the Qiang, Di, Xiongnu and other foreign tribes went south to Guanzhong to plunder, and even moved to Guanzhong, until Cao Cao sent Zhong Xuan into Guanzhong, after Zhong Xuan's good governance, after several years, Chang'an and Guanzhong were finally restored...

However, it is Guanzhong where a large number of foreigners and Han people live together, therefore, this chaotic force, complex situation, and disorderly Guanzhong for a long time was suddenly obtained by Liu Bei, and Liu Bei naturally had to manage it strictly, so as to develop Guanzhong faster and make it help himself! What's more, in the land of Guanzhong, although there are still Ma and Han Sui in town, they are still surrounded and plundered by more than ten forces

…….

In the Chang'an Palace after a little restoration, Liu Bei has returned from Luoyang, accompanied by Ma Teng, Ma Chao and his son!

Liu Bei's eloquence and tears did not directly say that the Ma father and son took refuge, but it also made the Ma father and son feel goodwilled sharply, so the group, after Liu Bei met Sun's Zhuge Liang and Zhou Tai, actually went to Chang'an on the same road! …

"Hahahama, what does General Haha think of Chang'an at this time?" Liu Bei smiled, "I have been in Chang'an for a few months, but looking at the depression here, everything is messy, and the people are not happy,"

"As a member of the Han family, I can't bear the people starving all over the wilderness, so I can only use iron-blooded means. Good physiology, take care of this Chang'an and other places..."

Liu Bei was very smug in his words, "I don't know what General Ma thinks?!" ”

"The law is strict!" Ma Teng pondered for a while, and slowly spit out four words, "But..."

Seeing this, Liu Bei smiled unmindfully, and said: "Now that Chu Wei is strong, if you can't settle Guanzhong as soon as possible, sooner or later you will be invaded by thieves!" ”

"General Ma has been stationed in Xiliang, Wuwei and other places for a long time, and he doesn't know the changes in the Central Plains..." The tears offensive, and finally said that Ma Teng's father and son felt the same way

"Humph! … One day, I will definitely give birth to a good life and lead the many generals under the command of the Marquis of Chu! Ma Chao snorted angrily, and his momentum rose.

"Little white face, your martial arts are not bad, another day I will Zhang Yide take you to meet the person who met Liu Xiu...!" Zhang Yide roared.

"Yide!" Liu Bei snorted again. Then he bowed to Ma Teng and said, "Please also ask General Ma to help me, and work with Bei to sort out a peaceful image in this pass!" ”

"Oh yes...!" Ma Teng hesitated, hesitating, but after all, he responded, "I don't know what Xuande Gong's plan is?" ”

Liu Bei saw that Ma Teng did not call him the lord. His eyes flickered for a while, "There are many forces in Xiliang and Guanzhong, and Chang'an is all the way to the west, and there are Li Kan, Yang Qiu and other departments to exploit and plunder the people. In Longxi, Han Sui united with foreign tribes to oppress the Han people..."

"I heard that General Ma can use strong cavalry to subdue Shangjun, Beidi, Wuwei and other places, so I hope to borrow soldiers and horses from General Ma. If it is to subdue the various departments of Guanzhong! ”

"Of course, although a strong army can take over the world, Bei is still more willing to use benevolent means. Let the people have enough food and clothing, therefore, Bei also hopes that in the future, General Ma can accept the law of governance in Chang'an, and the policy of reassuring the people...! ”

"I don't know what General Ma is doing?!" Liu Bei said, looking at him with a smile.

Ma Teng was scheming in his heart, 'borrow troops and govern in a unified manner...'

Ma Teng hesitated, but Liu Bei bowed deeply again and said, "The Han family is in decline, and I ask General Ma to help prepare!" Be ready to be a national soldier! …”

"It's... Xuande Gongren and Righteousness! Ma Teng naturally helps! Ma Teng hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "It's just that Beidi, Shangjun, and Wuwei are all important border towns, and soldiers and generals are indispensable,"

"Therefore, I can only borrow some soldiers, horses, food and grass, and cannot provide more help... Please forgive me...! Ma Teng thought about it in his heart and gave an explanation of 'embarrassment'.

When Liu Bei heard this, he didn't mind at all, but said with great joy: "Thank you General Ma, General Ma has helped, and you should be able to settle my Hanmur Prefecture as soon as possible!" Hahaha"

"Come, come, drink this cup, and then discuss how..."

……

In Jiangxia and winter, after the winter snow, the glacier full of corpses outside Xiyang City also slowly receded; The corpse had been frozen in ice and snow for months, and the expression on its face, whether frightened, screaming, helpless, or desperate, was still like life, as if the disaster was just yesterday.

More and more crows gather outside Xiyang City, and there are even more beasts and jackals!

In such a scene, Cao Cao's hundreds of thousands of troops had already retreated and returned to be stationed in Runan County, Yuzhou.

Runan County, now bordering Liu Xiu in the southwest, facing the Sun family in the southeast, and Liu Xie's Sili Tiger Prison in the northwest, has really become the land of the four wars.

Cao Cao in the seventh year of Jian'an (202 years) can be described as a mixture of joy and sorrow, defeated Yuan Shao in the first half of the year, won hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in Hebei, hundreds of military generals, never thought that in the second half of the year, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses were wiped out immediately, and there were frequent losses in Xuzhou Sili and other prefectures and counties...

Thanks to his two capable sons and Cao Ren, he pacified Jizhou, Qingzhou, and Youzhou for him in a short period of time, so that he would not suffer heavy losses.

"Bonghyo!"

"Gongda!"

“…”

"Tell me what should I do?!" Cao Cao is famous one by one, his face is quite heavy, he Cao Cao is indeed in a dilemma now, this time the army went south, not an inch of land, but the loss of soldiers is generals, but also involved Sili and Xuzhou and other places, can be described as the most painful defeat of his Cao Cao army!

"Enlighten the lord, the matter has come to this, you should be conservative, cultivate and recuperate, in order to plan for the future."

"Liu Xiu snatched the lord's Nanyang, this revenge is not avenged, how can he convince the public! The lord went south with a large army and fought to the death with Liu Xiu in Jiangxia. ”

"Nope! The Sun clan is hateful, and when the army returns to the east, it recaptures Xuzhou. ”

"No, no, no... The lord should return to Hebei, stabilize the border and external troubles, and rectify and merge the state. ”

…

After one person spoke, for a while, all the civil and military forces in the room were fighting

Cao Cao was so noisy that he had a headache, so he could only stare at Guo Jia and the others who he had high hopes for, "Fengxiao!" ”

"In!" Guo Jia stopped the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry, don't worry, wait for Fengxiao to think about it carefully..."

Cao Cao was dumbfounded, and could only look at Xun You, "Gongda, you speak first." ”

"Last year, the lord's land was nearly doubled, but the soldiers and horses lost hundreds of thousands, although they lost in Xuzhou, but they still governed a wide range of land, and the soldiers and horses were not enough. )
