As soon as the sky was bright, Wu Chai sent people to report and found a group of men and horses, from east to west, to the direction of Chang'an, to see the flag costume, it was the right Xianwang of the Huns.

Huns? As soon as Ma Han raised his eyes, he saw Jia Xu pushing out, greeted with a smile, and said: "It seems that the big melee outside Caoyang Pavilion is over, and it is not surprising that the Baibo army was defeated and the Huns fled." ”

Jia Xu nodded and said: "Although Li and Guo are not generals, most of the soldiers under their command are the Xiliang Ruishi left by Dong Xiangguo, which is not comparable to Bai Bokou, so it is not surprising that there is such a result." Speaking of this, Jia Xu paused, glanced at Ma Han, and said meaningfully, "The lord drove the tiger and chased the wolf, Bai Bo has been hit hard, and the day he returns to Luoyang is the time to get rid of this scabies." ”

Ma Han said with a smile: "Bai Bo is not to worry, but how to deal with the Xiliang Army, I still need to plan a lot and find a bright way out for the Xiliang Army." ”

Jia Xu sighed lightly: "The Xiliang Army is the first-class powerhouse of the Han Dynasty, and it is the sword of the country, but the Son of Heaven is weak, and the dynasty has no meritocracy...... The Han Dynasty needed a more wise and wise lord than Xiangguo to restrain Xiliang and settle the world. ”

Even though everyone in the world hates Dong Zhuo and calls him a "national thief" without his name, for Jia Xu, if there is no Dong Zhuo, he would not have today's status. Stand in his position and always maintain due respect for him. It is rare that Ma Han also agrees with this. Although Dong Zhuo's rule is lackluster, looking at his successors, one is more unbearable than the other. In history, several thieves such as Li Le, Hu Cai, and Han Xian were the like. even controlled the court for a period of time, it was a miasma, which was unimaginable.

Ma Han had reached a consensus with Jia Xu last night: the Han Dynasty needs a strong minister, unify hundreds of officials, and command the world. This person must have strong strength, have his own territory, win the trust of the Son of Heaven, and at the same time be accepted by the family and officials. And Ma Han, who fully meets the above conditions, and if he operates well, he can become a powerful minister of the Han Dynasty.

and was respected by Ma Han as the mastermind. Jia Xu, who is in charge of the actual operation, can't help but feel a strong sense of happiness when he thinks of being able to hide behind the scenes and move the world in the way he is best at-this feeling, it's so cool!

Once Jia Xu decided to take refuge in Ma Han, he did it in one step, never dragging his feet, not only claiming to be the master, but also completely placing himself in the position of the mastermind. Actively make suggestions. This is also something that Ma Han appreciates.

After Ma Han and Jia Xu had breakfast, they put two pots of fire in the room and warmed a pot of wine. Let's discuss the current situation.

Last night, the two discussed the general trend of the world and the future direction of their own forces. The topic of discussion today is the current situation, and the next short-term goal is set first: to clean up the Baibo Army and the Xiliang Army. Don't cut these two tumors off. None of the plans could be carried out. Of course, there are differences between the means of the two. One hand hits, the other hand pulls; In principle, it is to fight the White Polish Army and the Laxi Liang Army. The specific way to fight and how to pull depends on the means of Jia Xu, a military and political all-rounder who is well versed in the inside story of the Xiliang Army and has a considerable reputation.

It was nearly noon, and the guards came to report that the sill had been repaired and was ready to set off.

So Ma Han thanked Li Kui and the villagers for his hospitality, and left 20 stone grains of millet to thank him. In this difficult period of tens of thousands of dollars of rice, these 20 stone grain millet can renew the life of the whole village, and the villagers are grateful, and the village kneels and weeps and thanks, and cannot afford to help it.

Jia Xu twisted his beard and smiled on the side, entering the court, these three auxiliary places are definitely the top priority, do not forget to win people's hearts anytime and anywhere, this young lord is not only brave. Maybe this time, I don't have to change the owner again......

The sails of the sill were rehung and the outer part of the mast was damaged, but after reinforcement, it was no problem to use it for a few more months. Of course, it is impossible to load all the horses on the Thousand Stone Ships. The basic principle is that people travel by boat, horses go ashore, more than 400 horses, and at least a team of wolves is assigned to pull and guard.

However, the direction of the ship was not to the east, but to the west. There is only one purpose for going west, to go to Baling, pick up Jia Xu's people, and go to the eastern capital together.

Jia Xu's original plan for this westward trip was to go to Baling to pick up the clansmen, and then go to Huayin. Duan Xuan, the general of Ning Ji in the same county before, had expressed his intention to solicit him. If you really have nowhere to go, I'm afraid you can only live here for the time being. Of course, now that the problems have been solved, only one last one remains: go to Baling and pick up the clansmen.

From Fengling to Baling, the land route is about 200 miles, the waterway is farther, more than 300 miles, and from Huayin to Zheng County (now Huaxian County, Shaanxi), this more than 100 miles of waterway, is the world-famous Yellow River nine bends and eighteen bends, the beach is dangerous and rapid, the most dangerous.

Therefore, Jia Xu proposed to moor the ship in Huayin, leaving some of the ship's guards, and the rest of the people, abandoning the boat and going to Baling by land. And he asked Duan Xuan, the general of Ningji, who was stationed in Huayin, to take care of the ship on his behalf until he returned.

Jia Xu's mention was safe and thorough, and Ma Han did not allow it, and at the same time accepted Jia Xu's construction, and went to Huayin together to visit Duan Xuan.

From Jia Xu's introduction, Ma Han roughly learned that his township party was similar in age, and he was Dong Zhuo's old subordinate and the general of the Xiliang Army. This period of simmering since the era of Dong Zhuo, has been stationed in Huayin, its presiding over Huayin for five or six years, diligent farming, do not raise soldiers, rarely plunder, the land under its jurisdiction, the people can be happy, can be regarded as a rare figure in the Xiliang generals.

Of course, when the time came to the Xingping period, the Central Plains was in drought, Li and Guo repeatedly rebelled, and the land of Sanfu was tossed to the point that it was not in shape, and the peaceful situation of Huayin was also gone. Therefore, Duan Xuan is also very resentful of Li, Guo and others.

In fact, between the warlords of Xiliang, it is common to attack each other, last month when the Son of Heaven drove through Huayin, Yang Ding had joined Dong Cheng, Yang Feng and others, and Duan Xuan fought a big fight, if it wasn't for the sudden appearance of Li Dao and Guo Yan's army, I don't know when to fight.

"Duan Wen is brave and trustworthy, and most of his generals are the old troops when he was appointed as the captain of the school, and the place where he is stationed is the pivotal road connecting the east and west capitals......"

Jia Xu only said half a sentence and then stopped talking, Ma Han nodded knowingly, this simmer, if used well, can definitely give Li and Guo a fatal knife in the back.

At the beginning of Shen Shi, Ma Han, Jia Xu, Xu Huang and a team of wolf riders came to the eastern suburbs of Huayin, in front of the military camp at the foot of Taihua Mountain, and visited Duan Xuan.

Duan Xuan usually runs at both ends of the barracks and the county seat, and the military and political power does not let go, but he stays in the barracks for the past two days and does not dare to go anywhere. The reason is very simple, it is all the Huns.

From last night to this morning, he has received six reports of the Huns copying the township pavilions of Benxian County, and even slaughtering villages. He immediately sent a battalion of 700 cavalry to drive out the Huns. The two sides had three small-scale engagements, with mutual casualties, and the Xiongnu saw that they could not bargain, so they crossed Zheng County and headed for Chang'an. In order to prevent the Huns from going and returning, Duan Xuan's helmet and armor stayed in the barracks honestly.

At the time of Shen Pai, Duan Xuan heard a hurried footsteps, and after the report, a sentry with a small flag on his back entered the account to report: "General Yu, I found a cavalry ......."

"The Huns are back again?!" Duan Xuan stood up with a shocked and angry expression.

"Well, it's not the Huns, it's Mr. Wenhe."

"Wenhe?" This information conversion was too abrupt, Duan Xuan blinked, and it took a while to remember who it was. Turning anger into joy, laughing, "He's here so soon, hahaha!" Okay, prepare the horses, Ben is going to meet him personally. ”

Duan Xuan's happy smile couldn't smile the moment he saw Jia Xu - there was indeed a cavalry behind Jia Xu that looked quite elite, but his position was behind a cavalryman, and at first glance he was a subordinate. On top of that, he had never seen this rider before.

Of course, Duan Xuan couldn't know all the generals of the Xiliang Army, but with Jia Xu's prestige, he could only stand aside, at least at the level of a general, which general he didn't recognize?

"I am the right general of the Han Dynasty, Guangluqing, Xiangping Hou, Liaodong Taishou, Ma Hummer and Shocking Dragon!" Ma Hao urged him to step forward, reported his home, and said with a smile, "General Ning Ji, I have admired the name for a long time." The previous time the Son of Heaven was persecuted by Li and Guo Er, thanks to the help of the general, the Son of Heaven remembered it in his heart, and once said that he would have a gift one day. ”

Ma Han's series of names is nothing to Duan Xuan, but the tone he expressed seems to be very familiar with the Son of Heaven, but Duan Xuan didn't dare to make a mistake, and hurriedly returned the salute, his eyes glaring at Jia Xu, full of questions.

Jia Xu calmly confessed to Ma Han, and then greeted the generals under Duan Xuan skillfully while inviting Ma Han into the camp. During the short journey into the camp, he quickly briefly explained the identity and origin of Ma Han.

Among them, the right general, Liaodong Taishou or something, Duan Xuan didn't care much, only the name of the eldest princess of ten thousand years, bluffed Duan Xuan not lightly - good guy, this is okay! The weight of this right general, how can it be compared to grass kings like Li and Guo? Among the external powers, even Dong Cheng is inferior, and I am afraid that only the root and Miao are not as good as the Hou Fu can compare.

With this understanding, Duan Xuan's attitude towards Ma Han suddenly changed greatly, and his demeanor was humble and courteous. Not only did he agree to take care of the ships for him, but he was also angry at the Xiliang warlords such as Li, Guo, and Zhang for causing trouble in the dynasty and poisoning the locality, and at the same time said that as long as the court had an edict, it would be ordered by the king to raise troops to suppress rebellion.

Ma Han and Jia Xu looked at each other and smiled, this Duan simmering is not simple! This is said evenly. At present, the Son of Heaven does not dare to tear his face with Li, Guo, and Zhang no matter what, so it can be regarded as a scene of benefit and no expense. And if he really issued an edict to suppress rebellion, it would mean that the strength of the imperial court had overwhelmed the Xiliang army, and no one would miss this opportunity to defeat the water dogs!

However, no matter what, it's good that Duan Xuan has this statement.

This seemingly convenient visit, but in the near future, in the battle of Hangu Pass, it completely closed the door for Li Dao and Guo Yan to flee west, which played a vital role. (To be continued......)
