Juyan City was built in the winter of the seventh year of Guangxi, that is, in the winter of last year, after the city was built, Ma Teng often patrolled back and forth between Juyan and Huishui City along Huishui, on the one hand, in order to prevent the counterattack of the Xianbei people, on the other hand, it was also because he was always itching in his heart, thinking about how Juyan City was built.

The efficiency of Hongyan Studio really has nothing to say, and the work planning is a set, what Ma Teng can think of, everyone has formed provisions, so Ma Teng's worries were quickly dispelled, and he began to look forward to it sincerely, looking forward to Juyan City to play a role, looking forward to the new city that will be developed along the way of Huishui, turning the Gobi into fertile land, and doing the dream chapter of the future famous history and spreading to all generations.

In the spring, Juyan City has been promoted to a second-level town, a large number of new residents and players have arrived, and they have begun to plant trees and build water conservancy facilities around Juyan City, and Ma Teng is very active in coming here to escort Juyan City, watching Juyan City get bigger and bigger, more and more people, the surrounding trees are gradually becoming forests, and the desert is being driven farther and farther, Ma Teng can't help but want to laugh in his heart.

With the strong support of Ma Teng, with the active cooperation of Zhang Liao, and the participation of many players, the plan of the Xianbei people to return to Juyanhai was shattered, and after the head was broken under the siege of Juyan, in order to reduce unnecessary losses, the Xianbei people gave up the traditional summer pasture of Juyanhai, but gathered in the direction of Dunhuang, Juyancheng successfully passed the initial difficult period, as Juyancheng continued to expand and build, unless there was civil strife, otherwise. I'm afraid that the Xianbei people will never be able to return to Juyanhai.

In the summer, not only did the harvest in Juyan City be good, but the harvest around Lianhui Water City also greatly improved. Ma Teng couldn't help but admire Fang Zhiwen so much that he threw himself into the ground, looking at people's strategy, it can be called strategy, a city has changed the appearance of the entire Jiuquan County, so that the southern part of Jiuquan is completely peaceful, originally in autumn and winter, Jiuquan County will have a headache for stomach problems. This year, after reducing the area of animal husbandry, grain production has increased greatly, and now there is no grain and grass from Yongzhou. More than one million people in Jiuquan County were basically able to survive the winter and spring, which was something that Ma Teng had never dared to imagine before.

In September, Zhang Liao's troops again arrived at Juyanhai to prepare for this year's winter hunt. Although Fang Zhiwen can't come in person this year. But there were still a lot of generals who came, and even Tian Yu and Xu Shu came in person.

Ma Teng happily went north to Juyancheng to drink and talk with these heroes, and finally sent Pang De and Zhang Liao to chase the Xianbei people to the northwest, and he led the army back to Huishui, wanting to meet with Han Sui.

This meeting was written by Han Sui to invite Ma Teng, on the one hand, for the sake of brotherhood, and on the other hand, to entertain Zhang Ji, who came to deliver grain, and to distribute grain and grass by the way.

Ma Teng led his army to the outside of Zhangye City. Leave the troops camped outside the city, ready to deliver food and grass. He took his guards and Ma Chao into Zhangye City, Han Sui learned of Ma Teng's arrival, personally greeted the city gate, and the brothers were very affectionate.

In the evening, Ma Teng and Han Sui had a drink with Zhang Ji, and after the banquet, the two brothers opened another table and talked about Juyancheng while drinking.

"Shoucheng, now that Juyan City can be built?"

"So that my brother knows, Juyan City was built last winter, and now it is a second-level town, and there are still hundreds of thousands of stone of grain harvested in the summer harvest this year, and cattle and sheep are not counted."

"Oh?! That's really going to congratulate the virtuous brother, but after being divided in half, there doesn't seem to be much. ”

"The little brother said that he got it, and the part that was put in has been removed."

Looking at Ma Teng's happy appearance, Han Sui's heart was sour, and more importantly, according to Han Sui's news, this year, the cities south of Ma Teng are also mainly farming, and it is said that the harvest is also good, Fang Zhiwen's battle line advancement theory has been confirmed, and the appearance of Ju Yanhai has really pushed the range of activities of the Xianbei people to more marginal places, thus protecting the safety of the south.

Although Han Sui is also a beneficiary, however, Han Sui's own territory was originally not much invaded by the Xianbei people, so the improvement is not obvious, what annoys Han Sui the most is that Han Sui originally used the two factors of food and Xianbei people to control Ma Teng, and now Ma Teng's food situation has begun to improve, and the Xianbei people have Zhang Liao from Shuofang to help fight again, I heard that in winter, Zhang Liao's brigade of cavalry is going to the Western Regions to chase the Xianbei people, so what does Han Sui use to blackmail and control Ma Teng? Once Ma Teng lost control and even fell to Fang Zhiwen, Han Sui was sandwiched between Fang Zhiwen and Sima Fang, and sooner or later he would finish playing

"Then I have to congratulate Brother Xian, but Fang Zhiwen's cavalry enters and exits Juyanhai, if he enters his own house, Brother Shoucheng must not be guarded against?"

"Defense? Why should we prevent it? Zhang Liao's troops were only in Juyanhai to replenish and repair, and never crossed Juyanhai to take the next step, so what else could the younger brother say? Didn't you go back on your word and not let the Youzhou army come to supply? ”

"Such a good thing is always unsettling, and it may turn into a disaster at some point.1

Ma Teng's face changed, he glanced at Han Sui suspiciously, and said with a smile: "Ju Yanhai's garrison is the henchmen of the younger brother, even if the Youzhou army has a plan, I am afraid that it will not be easy, not to mention that there is still a brother here, and the brother will not sit idly by at that time1."

Han Sui smiled dryly: "This is natural." ”

Ma Teng smiled innocently and changed the topic: "Brother, how much grain and grass has been transported from Chang'an this year?" ”

"As in previous years, have you brought all the cattle and sheep of the virtuous brother?"

"Naturally, it was brought, so this year is still according to last year's distribution method?"

"This virtuous brother, since the harvest in Jiuquan County is good this year, can you let my brother have more grain and grass, this year's harvest in Zhangye is not very good1

Han Sui said with a bitter face, Ma Teng's face changed when he heard this, and he hesitated for a while and said: "Brother has a word, it is said that the younger brother should not be disrespectful, but this grain is related to the life and death of millions of people, this matter is not serious, you can't ignore the life and death of the people because of the brother's personal feelings, this year's harvest in Jiuquan County is indeed acceptable, but it has reduced the number of cattle and sheep grazing, and has to invest money to plant forests, and there is no surplus of grain and grass, therefore, the younger brother is afraid that it will be difficult to agree, if there is another bumper harvest next year, maybe he will be able to squeeze out grain and grass to help his brother 1."

Han Sui's eyes flashed, and he looked at Ma Teng seriously, Ma Teng put down the wine bowl in his hand and looked back at Han Sui, with a frank and loyal face.

"Hehe, no matter what, the virtuous brother also has his own difficulties, which are difficult for the strong brother, don't blame the virtuous brother 1

"Brother, don't say that, it's all the little brother who is incompetent, let the brother worry."

The two of them talked happily and stopped mentioning the matter, Ma Chao saw that the two were no longer talking about business, looked at Yan Xing and Cheng Gongying, who were accompanying him, and excused himself to avoid the table.

Out of the back hall, Ma Chao exhaled, in fact, Ma Chao doesn't like this kind of occasion, and he doesn't like to drink, when Guy was in Juyanhai, Fang Zhiwen invited Ma Teng to a banquet, Ma Teng asked Ma Chao to accompany the wine, Fang Zhiwen stopped it on the spot, saying that young people have not grown up, drinking will affect the mind, affect the achievements of children in the future, and since then, Ma Chao will no longer drink.

And in that kind of occasion that seems intimate, but feels a little discordant no matter what, Ma Chao always feels uncomfortable, and when he saw his father finish talking about business, he quickly found an excuse to sneak out.

"Meng Qi, is it stuffy inside1

Yan Xing also walked out with a smile, or he saw that Ma Chao was bored and came out to accompany Ma Chao.

"The little brother is rude, but he doesn't like the smell of wine, so he came out for a change of air, and by the way, he also relieved himself, but where is the thatched house?"

"It's right in the back, walk along the side porch, and I'm going there too."

The two said this, walked along the side corridor together, when passing through the back hall, Ma Chao didn't drink, his ears were clear, and he heard that there seemed to be someone in the room, originally just curious, but when he listened carefully, the low breathing sounded, and there were a lot of people in it, but what are these people doing here?

Ma Chao paid attention, pretended to slip under his feet, leaned against the window, and looked in from the thin pane, although it was dark inside, and he couldn't see anything, but the cold light of the weapon and the familiar bloody aura Ma Chao thought that he would not be mistaken.

"Be careful1

"Hehe, it's okay, my legs are a little numb after sitting for a long time1

Ma Chao knocked on his thigh to cover up, and at the same time, his mind turned rapidly, thinking that there was a knife and axe hand in it, and his heart couldn't help but feel cold.

Hurriedly relieved his hand and returned to the banquet, Ma Chao pretended to pour wine for his father, accidentally poured the wine on his father's body, and while wiping it, he whispered in his father's ear: "There is a knife and axe hand in the back hall 1."

"Meng Qi, what's the matter with you, rudeness, it's really rude. Brother, seeing the smile, let the younger brother go to change clothes. ”

"Brother Xian doesn't have to care, it's a little thing1

"Meng Qi, come with me1 Ma Teng feigned to be angry, Ma Chao bowed his head and followed his father out of the hall and walked towards the back porch.

When he arrived at no man's land, Ma Teng's eyes were raised, and the father and son moved at the same time, knocking out several maids who led the way, and then hurriedly bypassed the courtyard, went out of the front door and lied that they were going back to the residence to get something, and then got on the horse and galloped away, even the guards did not have time to inform, and hurriedly rushed towards the city gate, and when they arrived at the city gate, the captain who guarded the gate saw that it was Ma Teng, and did not suspect him, and heard that there was an urgent matter and opened the city gate, and the father and son quickly escaped from the city gate and returned to the barracks.

When Han Sui found out that Ma Teng had not returned for a long time, when he went to look for it, he found that Ma Teng had already run away, and then he wanted to chase after him, but it was too late.

Besides, after Ma vacated the city, he immediately pulled up his men and horses to retreat, and urgently sent a letter to Pang De, asking Pang De to return quickly, if possible, he could ask Zhang Liao and others to go south to help in the war, and in the future, he would get Zhangye, and half of Zhang Liao's population.
