Chapter 264: Han Sui's thoughts
After the failure of Ma Chao's rebellion, Ma Chao was forced to go all the way west and fled to the westernmost part of Liangzhou, and even Ma Chao once moved the idea of going west through Yumen Pass and going to the Western Regions for temporary refuge.
Although his courage was invincible, it was difficult for dozens of ordinary people to be his opponent, but the iron army under the command of Yun Shan suddenly killed before, and the dense impact of tens of thousands of people like one person directly shattered the pride and confidence in Ma Chao's heart.
In the years of his childhood and growth, Beigong Boyu, Wang Guo, Bian Zhang, and Han Sui Ma Teng successively dominated one side, and they gathered tens of thousands of people to beat the Han army, and even once moved the idea of giving up Liangzhou, when he was a teenager practicing martial arts, he often followed his father to loot Sanfu, and casually invaded and looted the old capital of the Han Dynasty.
The only thing that could make them feel a little threatened was the elite Xiliang Iron Soldiers under Dong Zhuo, and the rest of the Hebei army, including Yuan Shao, was far from being Ma Chao's opponent.
This made Ma Chao quite arrogant in his heart, thinking that the Xiongnu were defeated by the Han army again and again just because they were too stupid.
With my Ma Chao's powerful martial arts, coupled with a group of brave and warlike Qianghu iron soldiers, not to mention Kou plundering Liangzhou, it is impossible to sweep the world.
But as soon as he closed his eyes now, his mind would immediately come to mind the resolute and unyielding pawn at the head of Chang'an City, and the countless Han soldiers who roared and waved their swords at his army during the Battle of Weibei.
Ma Chao could understand their accents, and knew that they were the locals of Guanzhong who had been bullied by their own family for many years, and these men who had only known about fleeing and begging for mercy in the face of Ma Teng and Han Sui before could burst out with such amazing combat power under the command of Yunshan.
Yang Qiu surrendered, Yan Xing surrendered, Ma Chao's vitality was greatly injured, for fear that he would escape slowly, Yunshan would lead an iron army to attack Xiliang.
Fortunately, such a horrible thing did not happen.
Yunshan ordered Yang Qiuyan to lead the army to recover the various departments of Yongzhou, but he did not enter the territory of Liangzhou, which was regarded as a stalemate with them.
A few days later, Ma Chao heard a news that made him have mixed feelings - Yun Shan actually left Chang'an, and I heard that Cao Cao's body collapsed, and Yun Shan had to rush back to Xu Du to take care of the aftermath.
This made Ma Chao stunned for a while.
He originally thought that his own defeat in the Battle of Weibei was because Cao Cao deliberately retreated and sold a flaw, but he didn't expect Cao Cao to be really seriously ill and miss such a good opportunity, and he didn't know when he would wait next time.
Just when Ma Chao was still pondering whether to take advantage of Cao Cao's critical illness and Yunshan being transferred away to send troops to attack, he first broke through Liangzhou and swept Sanfu, and another bad news reached his ears.
Ma Teng is dead!
Ma Teng's family, dozens of men, women, and children, were beheaded by Cao Cao on the streets of Xudu and abandoned the city.
This tyrant who once brought great nightmares to Guanzhong kept begging and kowtowing at the last moment of his life, hoping to get a trace of mercy from Cao Cao, but he could only watch his whole family being killed one by one.
I don't know if Ma Teng thought about Fu Xie, who was forced to die by him back then, before he died, did he think about the people who had been separated from his wife under his blade for a long time, forced to be slaves for the Hu people, or simply split into two and fell in a pool of blood.
Maybe there is......
A few years before going to Xudu, Ma Teng seemed to finally realize that what he had done before was not like a person, and he protected the people and restrained the Hu people, trying to create a good image of himself.
But all the evil things he did back then, such a small favor can be easily washed away.
Hearing that Ma Teng's whole family was sent to the execution ground crying, the people of Sanfu fell to the east one after another, and even greeted each other like the New Year, killing pigs and sheep, and expressing their disgust for Ma Teng's family with practical actions.
This series of news hit Ma Chao's heart like a heavy punch.
His pride and ambition suffered an unprecedented blow, and the whole person seemed to have aged ten years at once.
The guests who had been drinking with him the day before and watching the orchid sword dance came to mourn, and they were surprised to see that Ma Chao's hair was white, and his originally sharp and combative eyes were also slightly cloudy, as if the spirit of his whole body had been completely emptied and became a mass of walking corpse.
"Why is Meng Qiru like this? Victory or defeat is a common thing for soldiers, Cao thief is dead, why don't I wait for 100,000 troops, unite Xianbei, and take the land of the Han family? ”
When Ma Chao raised the army before, he didn't think about Ma Teng's life or death at all, and everyone thought that he would mean to express his filial piety.
Unexpectedly, Ma Chao was quite depressed for a few days, and in desperation, the patriarchs of the Qianghu tribes came to enlighten Ma Chao.
In their usual way of doing things, there's nothing that a barbecue can't solve.
Ma Chao was down, so they sent good wine and roast sheep, and everyone was dancing around the fire, but the cheerful atmosphere made Ma Chao feel a little out of place.
Since he was young, he had always liked to associate with these Hu people, and he sincerely admired their heroism and strong force, only this time, he began to feel that these people did not seem to be the same people as himself.
Ma Chao scratched his head, his tired eyes passed through the greenery that had just sprouted in Hu Tianchun's spring and cast into the distance, full of confusion about his future.
。
Ma Chao fell into a long period of confusion, but Han Sui, who was more than the year of knowing the destiny of heaven, had already passed the age of confusion.
In the previous battle between Weibei and Yunshan, Han Sui chatted about juvenile madness, and commanded his soldiers to desperately attack Yunshan, like moths fighting fire.
Han Sui is already determined to die on the battlefield at any time, and if he can make his life's achievements on the battlefield a conclusion, it will also be a rare relief for him.
Although Han Sui's soldiers had already begun to be chaotic when Yang Qiu and Yan Xing rebelled, the loyal warriors under his command still stood firmly with him.
These Xiliang warriors who were usually fed with countless money, cattle, sheep and beauties fought desperately, and they were stunned to get Han Sui out of the crowd, and under their hard work all the way, Han Sui was finally able to escape back to Xiliang and lick his wounds silently.
Cao Cao died, Ma Teng's family was killed, and Yunshan was recalled to Xudu, a series of events that made Ma Teng feel a lot of emotion in his heart.
If he hadn't taken the risk of chasing and killing Cao's rear team at that time, Yang Qiu might not have rebelled now, Yunshan might not have been able to kill Chang'an, and the Guanzhong coalition army would not have been infighting, and he would have enjoyed the spectacular and magical scene of the Yellow River thawing in spring as the master of Guanzhong.
It's a pity that he couldn't suppress the greed in his heart for a while, and finally missed this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"Dudu, now that the Cao thief is dead, and Yunshan is not there, this is a rare opportunity.
I might as well connect with Ma Chao and re-dispatch the army to fight Sanfu again, not necessarily without the opportunity to enter the Central Plains! ”
Like Ma Chao, Han Sui also made a lot of friends with Qianghu, and if he wanted to counterattack, he would not have no money in his hands.
But...... The matter of you pit me and me pit you in the Guanzhong coalition army before is still in front of him, and he doesn't want to make any coalition forces at all now, let alone join forces with Ma Chao.
Although he had already turned against Ma Teng, Ma Teng was his sworn brother after all, and the news of his death still gave Han Sui a huge shock, making him breathless for a while in his old age.
If he hadn't succumbed to Beigong Boyu back then, if he had found the right opportunity and could have turned back, maybe he wouldn't have been like this for so many years.
After sighing for a long time, Han Sui's mind turned sharply, and a bold idea suddenly came to him.
"Who else among you can ...... Contact Shang Yanming? Don't hide it from me, it's a good thing! ”
Han Sui's subordinates looked at each other, and no one dared to say anything for a while, Yan Xing was a rebel under Han Sui, who dared to claim to have a friendship with him?
Cheng Gongying smiled bitterly: "Yanming should still give me some thin noodles, what do you have to say?" ”
Han Sui pondered for a moment and said calmly:
"Yunshan is my son-in-law after all, and I am very worried when I hear that he is under house arrest in Xu Du by the Cao thief who usurped the Han Dynasty.
Although Yan Ming abandoned me, but the kindness and righteousness of the past are still there, you go and ask him, would you like to follow me to help the Han family and destroy this usurper Cao thief together? ”
Han Sui's words can be described as unkind.
Yun Shan didn't know what to do in Xu Du, but if Han Sui went to save him in the name of helping the Han family, it would really add a crime to Yun Shan out of thin air.
The most taboo thing for Cao Pi now is that someone shouts the slogan of Kuang Fu Han Chamber, and others shout it, just forget it, why is Han Sui so shameless, it is obvious that he deliberately wants to pit Yunshan to death.
Cheng Gongying thought about it, and said in his heart that this plan was not bad, Yan Xing had just surrendered to Yunshan, but Yunshan was placed under house arrest by Cao Pi in an instant.
At this juncture, Yan Xing must also have a lot of uneasiness in his heart, and it was a good opportunity to persuade him to return.
If they can reorganize the Guanzhong coalition army, they may still have a chance to enter the Guanzhong while the world is changing now.
"Don't worry, I will persuade Yan Ming when I see him, there was just a misunderstanding before, he will definitely be willing to return to help the Han family with the governor!"
Han Sui nodded with satisfaction, and the previous exhaustion on his face dissipated.
Lao Ji is determined to be thousands of miles away.
Mende's poems are really good.
This should be the last fight in his life, and he will try his best to make the last attempt, which may not be successful.
