Xu Hong provoked the relationship between the two armies, not without a target, nor did he send people to spread rumors casually, he explained to the people of the Snake Eye Organization that he must find a specific person and a suitable event, and then make trouble or add fuel to the fire, if he acts in this way, he can be accurate one by one, and if he gets it down, he can get twice the result with half the effort.

"For example, the previous way, it seems that Cao Cao has used it in history, it is a divisive strategy, Zhang Ji and Ma Chao at that time had a good relationship, when Cao Jun and Ma Jun fought unfavorably, all with Zhang Ji's help, he deliberately wrote a smeared letter, sent it to Zhang, as a result of Zhang read the letter, Ma Chao heard about it, and hurriedly rushed in, as soon as he came in, he asked Zhang Ji, how the letter from Cao thief, and Zhang Ji showed it to him, for the smearing on the letter, Ma Chao was furious, thinking that he deliberately smeared, so that he could not see some of Cao Jun's words clearly, so that he acted behind his back, and the two people had a rift in this way, and Cao Jun seized the opportunity, and as a result, they were directly defeated one by one. ”

Whenever he thought of this, he would sigh: "Those two people originally had obstacles, and if they attacked quickly, they would unite together, and if they slowed down, there would be cracks between them, but here, we can implement this plan one step ahead of Cao Jun, and the current situation is that Ma Teng is still in Xiliang, and Cao Jun has not summoned him to Chang'an, so what should we do now?"

Xu Hong couldn't help but hesitate, now Xiliang is still in charge of Ma Teng, and Zhang Ji is still in another place, if he wants to use Cao Jun's method, I'm afraid it won't work, and besides, it doesn't make any sense, he must create a new situation by himself, it is better to have a better idea.

Thinking of this, Xu Hong fell into deep thought, how should he act? He learned wisely, and did not do it behind closed doors, but asked people to bring the Xiliang forces a list of ministers, carefully study the relationship between them, and see if there is anything that can be done, it is best to make some big moves, and after reading it for a morning, he has a good idea.

"Hey, hey, you can imitate the decree of Emperor Han Xian, let the people in the organization pretend to be the ones who give orders, and then play Ma Chao as the Taishou of Xiliang, and Ma Tengcheng as other officials, hey, hey, hey, in this case, there will be a good show. ”

Xu Hong felt that this was not enough, he had to add another fire, this time he imitated Cao Cao's letter, and also deliberately smeared it, but the content of the letter was just greeting nonsense, and it was written to Ma Chao.

Thinking of this, he felt that this plan was feasible, so he sent the people of the Snake Eye Organization to give the order, and then sat on the chair himself, but in order not to affect the trend of history, he only created such a hand, and simply let himself use it, because sitting cross-legged for a long time was too uncomfortable, and he had thought of several different results at the moment, but there was only one final result, that is, Ma Teng would raise troops against Cao Cao, so the two of them would meet each other.

"In the previous history, Cao Jun summoned Ma Teng and his son to Xuchang and killed, now if he still has a righteous son who does not die, it is estimated that the strength can be increased a lot, hehehe, it is estimated that when he fights with Cao Cao, there will be a good show, but I estimate that Cao Cao is not stupid, this golden opportunity, finally sent to the door, he just needs to let Emperor Han Xian get an edict, and then send an edict to crusade against Ma Teng, it is estimated that it will add fuel to the fire, think of other ways. ”

He felt that this should be the right direction, so he let go of his hands and feet and sent someone to carry it out, and soon the effect was apparent.

Ma Teng saw his son and Cao Cao exchanging secret letters, and he has always had a grudge, which is nothing, and then Cao Jun actually wrote to let his son take over him, now he couldn't sit still, and asked his son face to face, if you want to be on the throne, you can come down now, let him go up, anyway, he will die in the future, Ma Chao was very aggrieved after hearing it, thinking that his father was still alive, and he and his brothers were all serving under his father's account wholeheartedly, and had never done anything rebellious, and now he was insulted for no reason, and he couldn't help but feel a little resentful。

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about that. Ma Teng was bored and let Ma Chao go down.

Ma Chao left dissatisfied, leaving only Ma Teng to cover his head, only to feel a little headache, thinking about it, he is still happy to believe in his son, but he doesn't dare to let go of his hands and feet now, as the saying goes, the heart of defense is indispensable, in this troubled world, he still needs to be on guard, he vented all his anger on Cao Jun, for which he can gather soldiers and horses, raise the banner on the side of the Qing monarch, and march towards Xuchang.

After Cao Cao listened, he was overjoyed, as Xu Hong expected, immediately sent someone to ask the emperor to give an order, and then took the edict, summoned the ministers, and immediately sent the five-way army to meet Ma Teng's army, Ma Teng personally sat in the army this time, only let Ma Chao stay in Xiliang, and deliberately gave him the power, which is also in line with the edict, but in Ma Chao's opinion, he could not personally go into battle to kill the enemy, but stayed at home, which was inevitably a little aggrieved.

"Hmph, my father didn't believe me, let me stay here, and let me be in charge of Xiliang, doesn't this believe the slander? I'm so angry!"

Ma Chao was so angry that he smashed the table, at this time, Zhang Ji heard the news, hurried over, and led the troops into Xiliang.

"Why are you here?"

"You misunderstood your father, how could a father doubt his son, he specially came to let me assist you, in this way, there will be soldiers to suppress Xiliang, let you become the lord of Xiliang as soon as possible, you are his real heir, he is afraid that you will follow, in case they fail, at least the whole family will not suffer, and you can leave a trace of fire, your father's intentions are clear now." Zhang Ji said bitterly.

"Ahh Ma Chao regretted that he didn't do it at the beginning.

"Okay, take out the courage of Xiliang as the leader, recruit new soldiers well, and some soldiers, train them well, you are a Xiliang horseman, and you must not lag behind in reputation. ”

"Wow. ”

Since then, Ma Chao has continued to recruit new troops and train them, because he knows very well that if his father is in trouble in the future, he still needs to lead his troops to help, and he is the last hope of the Xiliang Ma family.
