Chapter 275: The End of the War
"This ...... This ......"
Hearing Ma Tenglai's words, Liu Xie's face showed a look of panic and deep remorse, he never thought that the Xiliang army would make such a request as soon as they arrived in Chang'an.
If the two armies have any different intentions and start a war, then Liu Xieke, who is in the middle of the confrontation between the two armies, will become extremely dangerous, thinking of this, Liu Xie will not be able to agree anyway.
Looking at the pale young man on the throne, Wei Tao couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.
Although he still knows how to play tricks, but in fact, after going through so much, this Liu Xie's temperament has become extremely cowardly, as long as he tears his disguise with a little force, he can clearly see that the following is just a trembling teenager.
After sighing lightly, Wei Tao did not come out to open his mouth to relieve Liu Xie, in fact, now Wei Tao has no intention of dealing with Liu Xie, and even when he came today, he just wanted to see who this Ma Teng would send.
A martial artist, but also a typical Western Liang martial artist.
Standing in the main hall, an arrogant aura arose spontaneously, looking around, not looking at anyone at all, seeing this, Wei Tao frowned secretly.
Although this person speaks Chinese, but the grassland style is very thick, I am afraid that he has Qiang blood, the matter of the envoy is a matter of face, it can be said to be extremely important, such a person can also be a messenger, I don't know whether it is the Han culture Qiang people, or the Qiang people mixed with the Han people.
Anyway, when Wei Tao saw this, he first felt dislike in his heart.
After a discussion without results, Wei Tao didn't care about himself.
But the next day. There is a message from Wei Tao who controls the Son of Heaven. Officials of all sizes in Chang'an City heard everything.
It's just that now the officials in Chang'an City who have a little courage are all dead. The rest is just that Kong Rong is friendly with Wei Tao like this, and he is optimistic that Wei Tao is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, although there are rumors, but it is not enough to move.
However, in this way, Ma Teng and Han Sui outside the city got an excuse.
Only on the second day, there were Ma Teng and Han Sui's envoys who came to Wei Tao to find Wei Tao.
"Dare to ask General Wei to let His Majesty go outside the city to see my lord, no matter what, my lord is in charge of a state, is it not even qualified for His Majesty to welcome him? Moreover, Yuan Shao was rebellious in the past, and the lord of my family was the first to be righteous. The blood edict is more famous, will it still be a plot to kill His Majesty? ”
I have to say that Ma Teng and Han Sui have a heart, the envoy sent to negotiate with Wei Tao is not like the arrogant person yesterday, but like the common tongue debater in the Central Plains, and it is better to say that everything is done by Wei Tao.
With a sweep of his eyes, Wei Tao had already found that there were a lot of people gathered around, and then seeing that the person was about to question when he saw Wei Tao, and he didn't want to enter at all, Wei Tao couldn't help but sigh lightly.
This is clearly looking for trouble.
"Gong Jin. Why is Ma Teng so unwise? ”
Wei Tao ignored the man's clamour, and instead asked Zhou Yu beside him.
"Lord Qi. Although Ma Teng is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, is he not? The name is inherent in the edict of the cloth belt, but it is far away in Xiliang, and it has the Xiliang cavalry. Even if something happens to Chang'an, it will not endanger it, can it really be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty? ”
Hearing Zhou Yu's smile, Wei Tao was also slightly silent.
Speaking of which, Ma Teng, like Liu Biao, just stuck in Xiliang, neither participated in the competition for the Central Plains, nor advocated righteousness, and was not a hero in the world.
At this moment, I heard Zhou Yu say with a smile again.
"Now the lord has taken Chang'an and forced Xiliang, and now it is like this, firstly, in the name of the loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, and secondly, it is also to suppress the lord, so that the lord does not want to fight Xiliang's idea. I'm afraid that these people have already made Xiliang a country of their own. Ma Teng is certainly a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, but this loyal minister of the Han Dynasty is a gift to the son of today, and he should be a small country and a big Han. ”
Hearing what Zhou Yu said, Wei Tao also felt that it was not unreasonable, but he shook his head and didn't want to think about it.
Wei Tao and Zhou Yu had a good conversation, but he put the messenger aside, making the messenger embarrassed!
"Humph! General Wei's great virtue I should report to the lord, and the general will regret it when the time comes! ”
The messenger simply shook his hand and left, but in fact the purpose of his arrival had already been achieved.
With the news of this matter, Wei Tao's control of the Son of Heaven can also be said to be a little more solid, and then attack Chang'an, which cannot be regarded as violating the righteousness of the common people.
The division is famous, which is why Ma Teng and Han Sui sent envoys again.
In fact, as soon as the envoy left Chang'an, the Xiliang army immediately approached Chang'an, although it did not immediately launch an offensive, but the situation was already very obvious.
"Is there going to be such a battle after all?"
Wei Tao looked at the Xiliang army outside the city and couldn't help but sigh slightly.
From beginning to end, Wei Tao didn't want to go to war, nor did he deliberately try to prevent the war, such a result had been expected, but when the result was really like this, Wei Tao was also a little emotional.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, war was the main theme.
Now even if he wants to start a war with Xiliang, is Wei Tao still afraid?
It is not Wei Tao's character to sit and wait to defend the city, since the other party has already attacked, then Wei Tao also immediately sent out the army, and the snow dragon horse on his crotch immediately led the troops out of the city.
"Ma Teng, Han Sui, come to see me!"
Between the two armies, Wei Tao shouted violently, and his voice almost overshadowed the earth-shattering drums.
The name of the person, the shadow of the tree, Wei Tao's current reputation is unheard of even if it is located in Xiliang, and under the explosion and cheering, the Xiliang army is suddenly all for it.
After a while, I saw the two of them fighting horses, it was Ma Teng and Han Sui.
"Ma Teng, Han Sui, do you want to do a big rebellion? Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao's lessons from the past are not far away, do you really think that my Wei Tao's halberd can't kill traitors? ”
Hearing Wei Tao drink so long, even if it was Ma Teng's boldness and Han Sui's cunning, his heart couldn't help but burst.
This time, they naturally knew very well what was going on.
They naturally don't dare to control the Son of Heaven and order the world, and this time it is not a great righteousness to bring troops to Chang'an, but they just want to use this to attack Wei Tao and consolidate their position in Xiliang.
If Wei Tao can be driven out of the division, then it will be the best.
From this point of view, Ma Teng and Han Sui do have some meaning that the Son of Heaven can rely on, after all, if Wei Tao is driven away from Si Li, Ma Teng and Han Sui will not be able to shift their focus to the Central Plains, then the entire Chang'an, and even Si Li, will naturally return to Liu Xie's hands.
Even though there are limitations, there are always some opportunities.
It's a pity that today's Son of Heaven Liu Xie is no longer as good as he was at the beginning, how can he dare to seek skin with the tiger?
Even if Ma Teng and Han Sui have intentions, Liu Xie, the son of heaven, is already unintentional, not to mention that he has already moved his sword soldiers at this time, in Liu Xie's opinion, Ma Teng and Han Sui obviously came with bad intentions.
So under Wei Tao's drink, both of them were in a heartbeat, especially Ma Teng's heart, and a trace of regret rose in his heart.
Han Sui was older than Ma Teng, and he didn't have the same loyalty to the Han as Ma Teng, so he recovered faster.
Han Sui and Ma Teng are righteous brothers, Han Sui can be said to have a good understanding of Ma Teng, as soon as he saw Ma Teng's expression, he knew what Ma Teng was thinking, and immediately shouted in a low voice.
"Ma Shoucheng, what are you still thinking about until now! You are all grasshoppers tied to a vine, and at this point, the only way to defeat this boy is to drive him out of the division. Then he subordinated this division to the Son of Heaven in exchange for the Son of Heaven's support for us in Xiliang. Only in this way can we maintain the status of you and me in Xiliang! ”
As soon as Han Sui drank it, Ma Teng immediately sobered up, after all, he was also a prince, and Ma Teng was not the kind of person who could play at will, so he immediately stepped forward after he came to his senses.
"Wei Tao, you don't have to say much, have you kidnapped the Son of Heaven, let the Son of Heaven appear as soon as you know! I waited for the order of the Son of Heaven to lead the troops, I don't know why, today I know that you want to do the actions of Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao, no wonder the Son of Heaven secretly ordered me to come! ”
When Ma Teng said this, even Han Sui was a little surprised, he didn't expect Ma Teng to have such a quick wit, so that the Xiliang army was famous.
As for the fact that the edict ordered Ma Teng to lead the troops, it was true.
At that time, the Cao army and the Wei army were all there, and although the Son of Heaven had to be re-supported by the two armies to ascend the throne, who would put it in his eyes?
Therefore, when this edict was issued, Liu Xie secretly said in it that he was afraid that Ma Teng would come alone, and he was also not the opponent of Cao Cao and Wei Tao.
Where did I think that now it is a benefit for Ma Teng.
"Ma Shoucheng, I didn't know you in the past, I didn't expect you to have such eloquence, you can almost be a lobbyist!"
When Wei Tao heard this, he just smiled slightly, but soon his expression was correct, and he pointed at the halberd and said in a straight voice.
"Right and wrong have their own words of the world! I may ask you, are you going to fight me? ”
The matter has come to this point, no matter whether Ma Teng regrets what he did or not, there is no way back at this time.
And at this time, it can also be seen that Ma Teng's decisiveness, hearing Wei Tao drink so much, not only did he not retreat before, but he also drank it!
"Where's Ling Ming?"
As Ma Teng's words fell, a black-faced man appeared from behind Ma Teng, and when he came to Ma Teng's side, he hugged his fist and said.
"Pound has seen the lord, please give the lord an order!"
"This thief is effective Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao's rebellion, and he is the enemy of my Han Dynasty, do you dare to fight with him and take his head?"
Ma Teng pointed at Wei Tao and said, his voice was fierce, as if Wei Tao was already a heinous rebel and thief.
"The last general commands!"
That Pang De did not hesitate to respond, and then only saluted Ma Teng, immediately turned the horse's head, and came straight to Wei Tao, halfway through, immediately raised the weapon in his hand, and shouted at Wei Tao.
"Xiliang Pang Lingming is here, does Wei Tao dare to fight with me!" (To be continued......)
