Chapter 274: The Xiliang Army Arrives

Wei Tao already had such a thought in his heart.

Wei Tao didn't know what Ma Teng thought, but since he had decided to see how Ma Teng was, Wei Tao naturally didn't rush to leave.

In fact, it is not only Wei Tao, in fact, although he has been low-key during this period of time, Cao Jun has never withdrawn from Chang'an, as if he is waiting for the situation in Chang'an to change.

And according to the information obtained by Wei Tao, Cheng Yu, a strategist under Cao Cao, also came because of this.

Everything is waiting for the Ma Teng to decide.

I have to say that Ma Teng is indeed a generation of loyal ministers and good generals, and maybe he also wants to use this name to leave a hundred generations, after receiving the edict of the Son of Heaven, he did not hesitate to send someone to inform the Son of Heaven that it must come.

However, the news that came later was that Ma Teng not only arrived, but also led 20,000 horses.

If it's just like that, it's nothing, not only whether Wei Tao or Cao Jun, there are tens of thousands of horses stationed outside Chang'an, if in order to ensure their own safety, then leading 20,000 horses to come, although it is disrespectful, but at this time it can also be understood.

But this time, Ma Teng did not set off alone.

Ma Teng has a sworn brother Han Sui in Xiliang, which is vast, in fact, it is jointly run by Ma Teng and Han Sui.

Han Sui's own strength is by no means under Ma Teng, and it can even be said that in fact, the entire Liangzhou is jointly controlled by Ma Teng and Han Sui, and the strength of the two can be said to be comparable, interdependent and mutually guarded.

And now that Han Sui is going to Chang'an with him, it is naturally impossible to stop it with the power of Ma Teng.

And Han Sui himself has a full reason. This kind of meeting the Son of Heaven is a matter of honoring the ancestors, and Ma Teng cannot be enjoyed alone.

In this regard, Ma Teng was naturally a little helpless, and at the same time a little happy, after all, for Ma Teng, if he led his troops to leave Liangzhou, and Han Sui took the opportunity to occupy Liangzhou, wouldn't Ma Teng be homeless?

So Ma Teng didn't do his best to stop this, anyway, in Ma Teng's opinion. The more soldiers followed. Then the more his strength is demonstrated, the more attention the court will pay more attention to.

And Han Sui is not ambiguous, a leader is 30,000 horses, and he is even more pressured by the horses.

That's 50,000 horses. Compared to Wei Tao or Cao Jun, it is even better.

I heard the news. Liu Xie was stunned. A few days ago, he was still boasting that Ma Teng was a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, but now Ma Teng is coming with great momentum, quite Dong Zhuo entered the customs in the past. Holding the Son of Heaven hostage, isn't this a blow to the Son of Heaven?

But at this time, an even more unspeakable news came out.

Sima Chengyu in Cao Cao's army is to the Son of Heaven, saying that there is a traitor Yuan Shu, vainly claiming to be the emperor, and now Cao Cao has been ordered to levy, but when he feels that the troops are not good, he wants to transfer troops from now on.

Now that the siege of Chang'an has been lifted, the rebel Yuan Shao has been ambushed and punished, and he should lead the troops to help.

Hearing this, no matter how stupid Liu Xie is, he still knows what his situation is, if he really lets Wei Jun and Cao Jun leave, then he will most likely become a puppet, and he will be dissuaded again and again.

If you don't know where to respond, you just say that it is to repay Your Majesty's great kindness and vow to destroy the national thieves.

"I didn't expect things to be like this, in order to let me fight with Ma Teng, Meng De actually wanted to do this, is all the glory and wealth in this world still not up to my ambition?"

After retreating from the court, Wei Tao couldn't help but sigh to Zhou Yu, but it was just a light sigh, and soon Wei Tao's face returned to calm, staring at Zhou Yu is color and asked.

"Is it true that Gong Jin heard the news before? Is it true that the Qiang people are coming? ”

"That's right, the Xiliang cavalry is famous all over the world, and it can be said that it is invincible and unstoppable, but many people in the world don't know where many Qiang people are. Na Ma Teng and Han Sui have been entrenched in Xiliang for a long time, and they have formed Qiang cavalry, although they can gain temporary benefits, but they let the Qiang people sit big, and even underestimate our Han people, but there is no hidden danger. ”

Zhou Yu nodded seriously, and then said so.

"My lord, although the land of Liangzhou is poor, there are really a lot of brave people, if the lord takes it, then the world's heroes are incomparable. If the lord gets it, it can be said that he will be like a tiger with wings. ”

"Well, Gongjin doesn't need to persuade him, I already know about it."

Wei Tao smiled a little bitterly, and he didn't know what Zhou Yu was for, but these days he was quite instigating Wei Tao to go to war with Ma Teng and Han Sui, as if he really fell for Cao Jun's plan.

But Wei Tao knew that this was impossible, and Zhou Yu's plan would not fail to see through the scheme.

However, in Wei Tao's current opinion, this Ma Teng is not inappropriate to be removed, even if he is loyal to the king, if he can't ensure that the Han will not be harassed by foreign races, then in Wei Tao's opinion, he is just a person who sacrifices his roots and seeks the last.

In any case, after a few days of travel, 50,000 horses and horses arrived at Desili, and by this time, Cao's army had retreated in addition to some troops stationed in various parts of Sili.

However, Cheng Yu just stayed, and the purpose of his stay was not for anything else, but to continue to persuade the Son of Heaven to move the capital to Xuchang.

Maybe it's because Wei Tao has always turned a blind eye to this, so the Son of Heaven has been tempted by this, not to mention the lack of materials in Chang'an, and now he doesn't even have a chance in the past, and it is indeed a little unwise to continue to stay here.

No matter what happened in the world, in the end, the Xiliang army finally arrived, but after approaching Si Li, they were asked to station the army and come alone, but Ma Teng and Han Sui turned a deaf ear and waited for the soldiers and horses to come.

"Gongjin, why is Ma Teng like this?"

Wei Tao frowned slightly, he could feel that Zhou Yu must know something.

"Han Sui and his people don't say, but since he dares to write his name on the edict, it can be seen that he is still a little loyal to the Han, and it is impossible not to respect the order of the Son of Heaven at this time, unless he wants to rob the Son of Heaven to Liangzhou. Today's matter, when someone is sowing discord in it, Gong Jin knows? ”

Wei Tao is not stupid, in fact, Wei Tao has already faintly felt this, Zhou Yu should not help, but just ignore it.

"This matter is indeed the handiwork of that Cheng Yu, after all, Ma Teng is also a prince all the way, and his relationship with Cao Mengde is not bad, I guess that Cheng Yu must be using this to talk with him."

Zhou Yu didn't deny it, and said very directly.

"I don't know what exactly to say, but unless we give up Chang'an, I'm afraid that Ma Teng will not be willing to enter the city alone. And if you let Chang'an, it is better to return to Yecheng directly. ”

Wei Tao immediately understood what Zhou Yu meant, it was not that Zhou Yu didn't stop it, but that Zhou Yu didn't have a good way to stop it.

"That being the case, then what does Gong Jin think I should do now?"

Wei Tao didn't ask this question to pursue anything, so he gently revealed it, and then asked seriously.

"Chang'an City has thick walls, there is no need to retreat, and then camping outside can become a horn, no matter what Ma Teng and Han Sui think, unless they want to risk the disapproval of the world, they will never dare to attack Chang'an easily."

Zhou Yu was indeed prepared, and immediately said slowly.

"The daily consumption of 50,000 troops is not small, and the place where the division is subordinate is ten rooms and nine emptiness, there is not enough food and grass at all, and every day consumed, the time that the Xiliang army can hold on to will be reduced by one day. It is simply not enough to confront the lord. In this case, there are only two choices, one is to enter the city alone, and the other is to fight openly with the lord, so that the lord can have a place to seek no matter what. ”

Wei Tao nodded slightly, for a strategist like Zhou Yu, Wei Tao has never investigated the truth, as long as he is sure that he will not harm himself.

Xiliang Ma Teng, it is just a matter of separating one side, but in the current situation, it is indeed too conniving with the Qiang people.

Of course, this kind of connivance is also suppression.

These days, according to Wei Tao's understanding, for the Qiang people, whether it is Ma Teng and Han Sui today, or Dong Zhuo in the past, they are all regarded as pig and horse envoys, and every time they rely on their strength, they will be the vanguard in every battle, and their military strength will be consumed.

It's just that at this time, Wei Tao also found that it was a little difficult to ride a tiger, and it was impossible to retreat so simply.

"It seems that Gong Jin still has some heart and eye play with me, it's just that! That's it! ”

Wei Tao couldn't help but shake his head secretly in his heart, if he said that who under his command was the most willing to help him achieve a grand hegemony, I am afraid it must be Zhou Yu, and now this is exactly for this.

If Xiliang can be taken, even if the Central Plains in the south are unified, Wei Tao will be able to rely on this to establish his own country and form a situation of confrontation between the north and the south.

It is better to be invincible in such a position than to fight to the death with Cao Cao, not only to consume the power of the Han people, but also to know who wins and who loses, so that other princes can benefit.

This is the reason why Zhou Yu really suggested to help Wei Tao on such a trip.

Just when Wei Tao was in Xiliang in his heart, Han Sui and Ma Teng in the Xiliang camp were also worried about this.

"Wenyue, how do you think we are now? Cao Mengde sent someone to communicate with us, and Wei Tao is probably not in good hands for us. But if he occupies Chang'an, if he can't see the Son of Heaven, then why are we here? ”

Ma Teng looked at Han Sui on the side and asked, although Xiliang is now dominated by the two, but it is really said that Ma Teng's side is more than strength, and Han Sui is resourceful.

So at this time, Ma Teng asked Han Sui for advice.

"Huh...... Shoucheng, this matter is not difficult. ”

Now the relationship between Ma Teng and Han Sui is quite relaxed, so the words are quite cordial.

"Now there are many Wei Tao's generals in Chang'an, if we go, we can be the right plan, but if we don't go, can't we let Your Majesty come? I will wait for the imperial officials to enter Chang'an, and Your Majesty should also go out of the city to greet him! “

Han Sui was also quite confident, and naturally believed that his plan could be successful, so when he said this, he looked full of confidence, but he didn't notice that when Ma Teng heard this, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

(Thank God?) Ye No Wukong's reward, and thank you for the support of other book friends, thank you! (To be continued......)
