The blue sky is like washing, and the grass and trees on the field are green, which is a good time for autumn to be high and refreshing. In the endless Hedong Field, a team that also saw no end meandered forward.

The team is not neat, the overall momentum is forward, but along the way, there are always small groups of people shuttling back and forth, like bees circling around the hive.

The flags played by the team are also varied, there are animal totems, and there are ghost-like patterns, only in the middle of the team, the flag fluttering high is more normal, and under the backdrop of a number of strange flags, the five big characters of 'General Han Fubo' are also doubly solemn.

Every time Ma Teng looked up and saw this flag, his heart was excited.

Although he has half Qiang blood, he has always prided himself as the Fubo general after Ma Yuan, and he probably means to find a noble ancestor to climb nearby. In the Yongliang area, only Ma Yuan, whose ancestral home is Fufeng, is a horse name person.

Just like there are many people with surnames in Youzhou and Liaodong, this kind of hard climbing relatives is commonplace. When he didn't make a fortune, of course, no one paid attention to Ma Teng, until he formed an alliance with Cao Cao, who guaranteed him the same martial arts, and this kinship was a bit reliable.

It doesn't matter whether the ancestor is Ma Yuan or not, since it has the same surname, it must have been a family five hundred years ago, and the difference is only in whether it is qualified to climb this relative.

Of course not before, although it has a bit of fame and a little strength, but as a rebel, and it is still the kind of rebel who has not been able to succeed, this kind of behavior of climbing relatives is just to make people laugh.

But now, with the support of strength, Wuwei Ma's future achievements may not be under Ma Fubo back then, who knows if future generations will refer to themselves with Ma Fubo? If they are also the founding fathers, future generations will naturally compare merit. Ma Yuan's greatest achievement is to seek peace, and he is walking on the road to Hebei with the most powerful force in the world!

If the first battle is successful, Hugh will say horse aid. Even if you count the twenty-four generals of Yuntai, has anyone ever made such a contribution? I'm afraid that only the Marquis of Huaiyin back then can be compared, right?

Thinking of this, why didn't Ma Teng feel agitated and enthusiastic?

"It's Yong'an ahead, right?" Ma Teng raised his whip, pointed forward, and asked.

"General Hui. In front of it is Yong'an City. A young military general accompanying him replied loudly: "After Yong'an City, even if you officially go out of Hedong and arrive at the boundary of Bingzhou, there is a boundary mountain about fifty miles north of the city. The terrain is quite dangerous, and only after sending scouts to investigate in detail can you pass through the ...... with confidence."

"Hmm." Ma Teng nodded, glanced at his nephew with satisfaction, and was relieved.

Ma Teng is not short of heirs, and his eldest son Ma Chao has the courage of ten thousand people, and he is also famous in Xiliang. is not below him, although the rest of Ma Tie and Ma Xiu are young, they are all obedient and sensible good children, but in terms of calmness and meticulousness, the combined sons may not be as good as this nephew.

The army is all from Xiliang, and in this strange place, others can only rely on the guidance of the guide, but his nephew has spent a lot of effort studying the topography of mountains and rivers, and now he talks about the geography of Hedong and Bingzhou. Many native-born locals can only be left behind.

Ma Teng has never read a military book, but after so many years of fighting, he also has his own unique experience in military strategy. He knew that the two armies were competing on the battlefield, strategizing, and commanding the commander. The brave generals who champion the three armies and the fierce generals who capture the flag are of course very important, but they are also indispensable for those who are delicate and good at taking care of trivial affairs.

Feng Yi, the general of the big tree in the era of Emperor Guangwu, Le Jin under Cao Cao today, and Yu Ban, one of the five generals of Qingzhou, are all characters of this type. Although their existence is not at all inconspicuous and like a shadow beside the radiant monarch, without their presence, those dazzling big men may not be able to achieve what they are today.

Ma Teng thinks he is a very capable commander, and his sons are not mediocre and incompetent, and if they want to achieve great things, it is people like Ma Dai who are missing. There is a way to go into battle as a father and son soldier, fighting tiger brothers, although the nephew is separated by one layer, but he also has less scruples about the future brothers......

If it weren't for the sudden sound of horses' hooves, Ma Teng's thoughts might have drifted farther, since the capture of Chang'an, he has fallen into this problem, as soon as he thinks seriously, his thinking is easy to diverge, probably because of the relationship that has been suppressed for too long before, right?

He smiled self-deprecatingly, his eyes turned to fierceness, and he turned his head to see who was so bold and galloping fast in the army.

In the past, everyone passed today, and they didn't know if there would be traitors and thieves tomorrow, and they paid attention to orders and prohibitions, and the military regulations were strict, which couldn't help but make people laugh. But now that he is the official canonized Liangzhou Mu of the imperial court, General Fubo, he is one of the princes who are qualified to fight for the world, how can he be as casual as before?

As a result, he was stunned on the spot, it was not someone else, but Han Sui, an old friend who had been friends and enemies with him for decades.

"Wenyue, why are you here? What about your army? Was there something wrong? Ma Teng's heart seemed to be grabbed by someone's hand, and it tightened suddenly.

There is a rule in the division of territory in the Han Dynasty, that is, the more heartfelt states and counties, the smaller the area, but the larger the population. And the annexation of states, even among the remote states, is quite large.

If you want to occupy such a large place as soon as possible, stabilize the place as soon as possible, and advance eastward, you naturally have to spread out your forces. What's more, more than 300,000 people, whether they traveled from the relatively rich Hedong or through the barren Beidi County, could not find enough supplies, so they had to divide their troops.

Ma Teng is not afraid of encountering the enemy, the troops in the Yongliang area have been evacuated by them, and the Xianbei people have run to Youzhou again, and it is impossible for anyone to threaten Han Sui's soldiers and horses.

He was afraid of civil strife.

The commander of the 300,000 army sounds imposing, but in fact, Ma Teng's power is far less than ordinary people think, and it is not stable. In addition to the Qianghu, there are also many rebels in the army, and the strength of the rebels is only slightly lower than him and Han Sui, and they basically got along with each other in the past.

Among them, there are eight of the most powerful, and their main generals are Hou Xuan, Cheng Yin, Zhang Heng, Liang Xing, Cheng Yi, Ma Wan, Yang Qiu, and Li Kan.

In the rebellion set off by the former kingdom, Bian Zhang, and Beigong Boyu, these people all participated. And Han Sui appeared as a military advisor or deputy marshal in those rebellions, so these people were quite convinced by Han Sui.

Therefore, this time the division of troops, and Ma Teng went all the way with his descendant troops, and because of his Qiang blood. The Qiang soldiers who were more kind to him, and Han Sui's way was mainly rebels from all walks of life.

Just as Ma Teng and Han Sui were also peaceful in the past, and there was no fixed relationship between them, the relationship between Han Sui and Hou Xuan and others was far from stable.

If Han Sui came to Ma Teng alone, it was because of the infighting in the army. After a scuffle, it broke up in a hurry, and ordinary people would definitely find it incredible, but Ma Teng believed it.

The army that rebels all day long is the worst of this, rebelling back and forth, and in the end it becomes a habit to catch whoever rebels.

Change in the past. It's too late for Ma Teng to see Han Sui's jokes, but now is a critical moment, those Qiang Hu are not fools, they are cunning. Now that I, General Fubo, can suppress them because there is incense bait in front, as well as Han Sui's 100,000 army to deter, plus the Qianghu tribes. The contradictions and grudges between each other are also deep, so they can be suppressed.

If they found that the 100,000-strong army was gone, who would still look at themselves as General Fubo? The edict of the Han court is ineffective against them, and these people only recognize strength.

Looking at Han Sui's appearance, you can know how fast he ran all the way, his face was covered with dust, and even his gray beard turned gray-brown. Seeing Ma Teng, he reined in his horse and waved his hand. He took a few breaths and said, "The army has entered the upper county, and there are Aoki and they are staring at it, it's okay." ”

"It's okay." Ma Teng breathed a sigh of relief and said strangely: "Since there is nothing to do." Why did you come here all of a sudden? ”

Although there is an opportunity to include most of the territory of Qingzhou's sphere of influence in the future, both the rebels and the Qianghu value the benefits that are within their reach. Dividing troops to attack and annex states also means that each of them grabs a piece of territory first.

Therefore, while breathing a sigh of relief, Ma Teng was also slightly vigilant in his heart, thinking that Han Sui was in the same state again, and wanted to cross the line to get a handful?

"It's Chang'an...... something" Han Sui was not generally familiar with Ma Teng, as soon as he saw that the other party's eyes were wrong, he knew what the problem was, took a few deep breaths, panted evenly, and explained concisely: "Meng De quickly sent a message to me, asking us to postpone the army!" ”

"What?"

Ma Teng was taken aback and shouted, "How can that happen!" There are so many of us, how much do we consume to eat horses in a day? This Hedong is not bad, but there are too few people, and a lot of land is so barren, and the brothers along the way are also tightening their belts and taking them over, although the land of Hezhou is large, but it is not much stronger than our Liangzhou, so postpone the march? So what are we going to eat? ”

"Alas, it's hard to put it into words......" Han Sui sighed, this time he was in alliance with Cao Cao, and the nominal leader was Ma Teng, but in the early stage, he had always been in contact with Cao Cao through Zhong Xuan, with Ma Teng as the main one. is to win over the Qiang soldiers, if it is just to win over the Xiliang rebels, Han Sui himself will be enough.

Anyway, since Ma Teng is nominally the head coach, he has to endure the other party's fucked temper. What's more, Ma Teng is not unreasonable this time, the action of the 300,000 army is indeed not to stop when he says to stop, and he just leaves.

Meng De said that he may have muttered about the Qingzhou Army, and if he fights a decisive battle now, he may ...... Well, the odds won't be too high, so he wants to be steady...... Shoucheng, don't worry, listen to me first, the current situation is like this......"

Han Sui focused on describing the achievements of the Qingzhou Army in Northern Xinjiang and some new weapons in the army, and saw that Ma Teng's expression changed from anger to deep thought, and knew that there was some effect, so he turned the topic back.

"There were a lot of new weapons in the Qingzhou Army before, and now they are even more uncontrollable, we are outnumbered, and there are many people who are good at fighting, but there are too many people in terms of weapons and equipment. If the two armies fought so hard against each other, even if they won in the end, the damage would definitely be extraordinary! We didn't defeat Wang Yu, even if we were done. ”

Han Sui's words were also serious.

He knew that Ma Teng was high-spirited and arrogant, if he directly said how good Wang Yu was at using soldiers, and how good the generals in Qingzhou were, Ma Teng would definitely jump to his feet, and his fighting spirit would not decrease but increase. But if it only talks about equipment, Ma Teng has nothing to be angry about, on the contrary, he will face this problem squarely.

As Han Sui expected, Ma Teng really said: "What does Meng De mean?" ”

Han Sui replied: "He needs a period of time to reorganize his troops and horses, recuperate, and at the same time try to narrow the gap with the Qingzhou Army in terms of equipment, in addition, he will try to raise as much money and food as possible, and send it to us, in short, let us not enter the army alone, wait for a while, two or even three families will draw their hands, and then start a decisive battle." ”

"That's right......" Ma Teng groaned slightly.

He only believed half of Han Sui's words, as the saying goes: The one who knows a person best is his enemy, Ma Teng has been fighting with Han Sui Ming and secretly over the years, and this time he stopped talking about peace out of helplessness.

But Han Sui had a saying in his heart, that is, defeating Wang Yu was not necessarily a day of success. Is Cao Cao an idle person? Now is the matter urgent, will you always ignore the territory north of the Yellow River in the future? Can I hold it back, look at the flowers and mountains of the Central Plains, and don't you go south to herd horses?

There must be a dragon fight!

His own capital is the Qianghu tribes, and it is not okay to lose too much in the war of the eastward advance. However, it is not a reason to stop like this, as if he is also afraid of Wang Yu.

"Bozhan!" He let out a low sigh.
