Ma Teng had long realized that he lacked advisers to advise him, and he had tried to recruit them.

However, Xiliang is located in the western part of the Han Dynasty, far away from the Central Plains, and in the eyes of the scholars of the Central Plains, this is a remote place that is no different from the wild and uncivilized land, and the people here are also called vulgar people by them.

Not to mention that Ma Teng tried to solicit, even if he gave up his position to the Central Plains scholars, they were all troublesome.

Especially a martial artist like Ma Teng, who was born in Xiliang, most of them have Hu blood, so it is even more difficult to recruit strategists for this identity.

The only feasible thing is to recruit scholars from local backgrounds in Xiliang, such as Li Ru under Dong Zhuo's account, which is an example, but unfortunately Ma Teng spent a lot of effort and still got nothing.

This time Han Sui sent a letter, Ma Teng's son Ma Chao was so indifferent when he heard it, and he was angry, but he immediately thought that this was a good time to teach him, and immediately after drinking, he suppressed his anger and prepared to talk about it for him.

It's a pity that after thinking about it for a long time, Ma Teng couldn't figure out the deep meaning of Han Sui's move, and after pacing back and forth, he said to his son Ma Chao: "Han Sui, the old fox, what he said still has some truth, Guanzhong fell into the hands of Huangfu Song, although he is not in the right way with us, but he doesn't have that ambition, he wants to attack Xiliang on the back, on the contrary, we can also choose the opportunity to go east to Guanzhong and occupy a rich place like Qinchuan for eight hundred miles." But if Guanzhong falls into Lu Bu's hands......"

Ma Teng stopped, not intentionally selling Guanzi, but thinking very seriously, what would happen if Lu Bu was all in Guanzhong and Xiliang.

Thinking about it, he still felt that Xiliang was hanging above Guanzhong's head, and Lu Bu was all in Guanzhong, and the first one to be subdued must be Xiliang. Not Hanzhong, or even Shuchuan.

However, is it really as Han Sui said in the letter, in order to prevent this kind of situation, the two of them should be released from their previous suspicions, join hands to send troops, and help Huangfu Song to fight against Lu Bu?

Ma Teng shook his head, always feeling in his heart that with the mind of Han Sui, an old fox, such a proposal. Maybe it wasn't his intention, but it had other intentions.

But what Han Sui wanted, isn't it what Ma Teng wanted, he wanted the other party's life and became a veritable king of Xiliang.

This is the picture. and whether to jointly send troops to Guanzhong to help Huangfu Song. There is not the slightest connection. Not to mention that it can benefit the two of them.

"Father, since this is the case, the child is willing to lead the army to Guanzhong, Lu Bu is known as a martial artist, and the child has always wanted to fight with him on the battlefield!"

Just as Ma Teng was pondering, he suddenly heard his son Ma Chao say so impassionedly. couldn't help but rise from the nameless fire in his heart, and scolded: "Confused, for a general, how can you blindly rely on your own martial arts." What's the difference between that and a reckless man? ”

"But, Lu Bu ......"

Ma Teng glared at Ma Chao, so shocked that Ma Chao swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, stared straight for a long time, and then said helplessly: "Lu Bu Wuyong, it is true, it can be seen what he has done, as well as the civil and military subordinates gathered under his account now, as well as his current status and prestige, you can know that he is not a reckless man who only relies on martial arts."

With these serious words, Ma Teng saw his son Ma Chao blinking there, and knew that he was still young, and he couldn't understand the deep meaning of this at all.

But Ma Teng can't think about it, Ma Chao can't understand it at this time, he can't listen to it, no matter what he says, it's useless, everything can only be let him slowly experience and ponder slowly.

But now, the world is changing, everything is like crazy, dizzying, time, I'm afraid that all the princes are now lamenting the urgent need.

After such discussions, Ma Teng didn't realize at all that what he was thinking and thinking had been completely restrained by Han Sui with a letter, and he didn't jump out of the range that Han Sui wanted him to jump at all.

Zuihou, Ma Teng still decided to take one step at a time, first write back to Han Sui, see what he proposed to send troops to Guanzhong, and then see whether he accepts it or not.

Midsummer is passing day by day, the weather is getting cooler day by day, the atmosphere in Guanzhong is getting hotter and hotter day by day, day by day is becoming more and more dignified, Lu Bu continues to draw troops from all over the jurisdiction, gather in Fenglingdu, even Zhang Yanbu, who was originally stationed in Hanoi, was transferred over.

Before the troops were gathered, Lu Bu personally commanded the army and approached Huayin, which was dozens of miles away, and Huangfu Song retreated without a fight, giving Huayin away.

These military information were transmitted to the cases of the princes from all walks of life in various quick ways by people with good intentions.

Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai, now the king of Qi, received the news that Lu Bu had suffered a big loss from the veteran Huangfu Song in Guanzhong, and immediately started preparations for sending troops.

In fact, gathering a large army and making preparations for sending troops has always been done, and the incident in Guanzhong just made Liu Dai feel that the time to send troops had come, and the only thing to worry about was which direction to send troops.

Yanzhou is also a place of four wars, which also means that Yuzhou, which can attack Yuan Shu in the south; To the east, you can attack Taoqian's Xuzhou in the southeast and Qingzhou Plain in the northeast; To the north, you can take advantage of the opportunity when Yuan Shao of Jizhou is busy cleaning up Gongsun Zan in Youzhou and send troops to Hebei; To the west, there is Lü Bu's Hanoi, and Lü Bu, who passes through Heluo and is gathering forces in Guanzhong.

With so many options to choose from, Liu Dai himself was a little dazzled, and the opinions of his powerful subordinates were also different, this time, knowing that the battle of Guanzhong had begun, he simply summoned the ministers of the counties under his jurisdiction to gather in the state minister's mansion in Chenliu, now the palace of the king of Qi, to discuss the matter.

Present, there are Dongjun Taishou Cao Cao Cao Mengde, Chen Liutai Shou Wang Qiu, Shanyang Taishou Liu Hong, and Jibei State Minister Chen Qi, Dongping State Minister Ji Zhan, Rencheng State Minister Liu Ru, Taishan Taishou Ying Shao, Jiyin Taishou Zhang Chong, plus Changshi Liu Jingzong, just redeemed from Taiyuan brother Liu Xuan, Liu Dai's powerful subordinates, it can be said that one does not pull, all gathered here.

The atmosphere is not very harmonious, Liu Dai made a start, everyone had different opinions, and some people even advocated that they should unite Yuan Shao of Jizhou and Yuan Shu of Yuzhou to jointly send troops to attack and merge from Hanoi.

After the three coalition forces invaded Taiyuan, what were they going to do, Liu Dai didn't ask, and he didn't bother to ask, when he declared to the outside world, he always emphasized that King Hongnong and Empress Dowager He were dead, so Lu Bu supported King Hongnong as the emperor in Taiyuan, he did not admit it on the surface, Yuan Shao of Jizhou, Yuan Shu of Yuzhou, and others were actually like this.

What did he want to do when he attacked Lu Bu's base camp Taiyuan so first, Liu Dai looked at Ji Zhan, the prime minister of Dongping who made such a suggestion, with some confusion, and muttered in his heart: What do you want to do?

"Your Majesty, your subordinates think that you should be the main attack on Xuzhou!"

When the Qingzhou Yellow Turban plundered a few years ago, a group crossed the mountains and mountains, attacked Mount Tai, and was cleaned up by Ying Shao one by one, fleeing from the escape, surrendering to the subdued, if the main attack on Xuzhou, where Tao Qian is located, it is from the Taishan County where he is located, and attack Xuzhou Langxie.

As soon as Ying Shao's voice fell, there were many people who echoed it, including Ji Zhan, the prime minister of Dongping who had just proposed to attack and annex the state, such a move made Liu Dai wonder if someone like Ji Zan had an opinion.

Among the crowd, now only Dongjun Taishou Cao Cao did not say anything, he sat behind the desk, frowning, Liu Dai seemed to be zuihou, only noticed his presence, and asked, "Meng De, what do you think?" ”

Cao Cao bowed slightly, and replied to Liu Dai: "The king is looking for advice, and his subordinates think that if Lu Bu wins Guanzhong as he wishes, his prestige and military strength will go up to the next level, and the counties of Guandong Prefecture will go their own way, if they don't strengthen Shili as soon as possible, once Lu Bu consolidates Guanzhong and pacifies Xiliang, the attention is bound to cross Heluo and go directly to Guandong, at that time, how can Guandong Prefecture and County resist?" ”

Liu Dai frowned slightly, and Liu Miao nodded frequently, indicating that Cao Cao's remarks coincided with what he saw.

Therefore, his opinion has always been very clear, and before Lu Bu can make a move, he will quickly make a strong move, expand the territory, and strengthen Shili, so as to compete with Lu Bu in the future.

Around Yanzhou, the most ideal opponents are Qingzhou Kong Rong and Xuzhou Tao Qian. As for Jizhou Yuan Shao, although there is still a big trouble with Youzhou Gongsun Zan that has not been solved, the prestige and strength are there, and it is not appropriate to start a war with him at this time, and the same is true for Yuzhou Yuan Shu.

Liu Dai asked, "What does Meng De mean ......?"

"The king should be to strengthen the strength of the current priority, Qingzhou Kong Rong, Xuzhou Tao Qian, are desirable, subordinates lead an army, north attack Qingzhou Plain, Xuzhou Tao Qian will be from Lang evil troops, for Qingzhou Kong Rong to relieve the siege, Wang Shang can personally lead the army, hidden in Mount Tai, waiting for Xuzhou Tao Qian to throw himself into the net. Then, the two-way attack can take Qingzhou, and the army will go down again, and Xuzhou can also be included in the bag. ”

"In this case, why not attack Xuzhou Langxie, and when Qingzhou Kong Rong sends troops to help, the king will attack from Jibei?"

Taishan Taishou raised his eyebrows, looked at Cao Cao with some displeasure, and asked.

"Of course you can." Cao Cao's face did not change, and replied, "Dongjun, Mount Tai, the two armies, the virtual and the real, where is the army led by the king, that road is the main attack." ”

"Hmm!"

Liu Dai used a heavy nasal voice, making it inconvenient for everyone who still had questions to ask each other again, Cao Cao's jihua, grand and bold, in fact, has exceeded his previous expectations, but he thinks that this is feasible, once he succeeds in Qing and Xu Erzhou, his strength will grow rapidly to an astonishing point.

But Ying Shao's words also made him have a few doubts in his heart.

Among the ministers of the counties under his jurisdiction, he has always been on guard in his heart, in fact, it is Cao Cao, who is too shou of Dongjun, and one is Taishan who is too shou Yingshao, at this moment, both of them are strongly leading one of the armies, among them, is it because they have some strange thoughts?

While pondering, Liu Dai did not show the slightest clue on his face, and after a while, he swept around everyone and said in a deep voice: "Okay, what Meng De said, it is very lonely, as for the two armies, how to advance together......"

Speaking of this, Liu Dai was a little shaken by the determination that he had just made up his mind in his heart, and he groaned, and his eyes were also patrolling back and forth between Cao Cao and Ying Shao.

The rest of the people, including his brother Liu Xuan, held their breath and waited for the decision of Liu Dai, the king of Qi. (To be continued......)
