Hearing that Lu Bu's envoy Jia Xu was coming, Ma Teng and Han Sui did not dare to slack off and personally welcomed him into the middle hall.

Jia Xu handed over the handwritten letter that claimed to be Lu Bu, and said with a smile: "It is a shame for us that the Xiongnu invaded my Han city. As the general of Zhenxi, the lord of my family wants to recruit two people to fight against the Xiongnu Liu Yufuluo Department, recover the lost territory, and use the power of the Han army. I hope the two of you will help! ”

Han Sui carefully read Lu Bu's handwriting and handed it to Ma Teng.

He said: "Originally, General Zhenxi had an order, and we shouldn't have refused. It's just that the harvest in the past two years has been bad and there have been many disasters. Our army is short of food and grass. Can this troop dispatch be delayed? ”

Jia Xu smiled and said, "Wen Hou is willing to provide 50,000 quintals of grain and grass. After the matter is completed, he will play the imperial court as the general of Zhenxi, and ask Ma Teng to be the general of Fubo, and Han Sui will be the assassin of Liangzhou. Are you two willing to send troops now? ”

Ma Teng and Han Sui glanced at each other, and they were a little moved.

General Fubo is the title of Ma Yuan, the ancestor of the Ma family, if he can seal General Fubo, this is the glory of Ma Teng.

Han Sui is still a rebel now, and his identity is embarrassing. This Liangzhou Thorn History can help him correct his name and better manage Xiliang. This is what Han Sui desperately wants.

Han Sui is known as the Nine Songs of the Yellow River, thoughtful and capricious. He betrayed more than Lu Bu.

Even if the Liangzhou Thorn History is what he desperately wants, he can still calm down.

The impatient Ma Teng couldn't help it. He stood up and arched his hand and said, "I don't know how Wen Hou wants us to cooperate?" ”

Jia Xu said: "The Huns have many cavalry, and I hope that the two can send 20,000 cavalry to assist Wen Hou to defeat the Huns." ”

Ma Teng and Han Sui added up to 100,000 soldiers and horses.

Of course, it was impossible for Lu Bu and Jia Xu to let them bring all the soldiers and horses over. If they dared to do this, Lu Bu would not attack the Xiongnu, but directly send troops to attack Ma Teng and Han Sui first.

20,000 cavalry is the most suitable, which can help Lü Bu better attack the Xiongnu, and at the same time, when they have the intention, they can defeat and annihilate them.

Hearing that the other party only asked for 20,000 troops, Han Sui was a little disappointed.

Ma Teng was very happy.

Only 20,000 troops can be exchanged for the title of General Fubo, as well as the history of Liangzhou Thorn, not to mention 50,000 loads of grain.

This trade is done.

When Ma Teng was about to speak, Han Sui grabbed the other party and said loudly. "Mr. Wenhe has been running all the way, and it has been hard to think about it. Rest first, recuperate your spirits, and talk about it tomorrow. Someone, please ask Mr. Wenhe to go to the wing room to rest. ”

Han Sui's son-in-law, Yan Xing, clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Wenhe, please!" ”

Jia Xu knew that they were going to discuss, and saluted Ma Teng and Han Sui.

"In this way, Wen He will retire first."

Ma Teng and Han Sui personally sent Jia Xu out of the door and returned to the middle hall.

Han Sui picked up Lu Bu's handwriting and read it carefully. Ma Teng said anxiously. "Wenyo, this is a good opportunity."

Han Sui put down the letter and said, "I know it's a good opportunity, but we have to think about why Lu Bu did this? You must know that if we help him defeat the Xiongnu, he will be able to completely control the two counties of Fufeng and Fengyi. At that time, his power will grow rapidly, which will not be good for us in the future. ”

Ma Teng said: "Not to mention the rewards, the Xiongnu occupy Fufeng, Feng Yi also threatens our trade routes, if there is no caravan, we need food, salt and iron and other important materials are sent over." Wen Yue, even if Lu Bu controls Sanfu, it is not easy for him to completely calm down. As long as we have hoarded enough food and have no worries, we can also send troops to attack Chang'an, and we can also send troops to the Western Regions. ”

After pondering, Han Sui said, "You can send troops." But we don't just want to reward the title, we want the Northlands. ”

Ma Teng said in surprise: "Lu Bu is not easy to get along with, but I'm afraid he won't." ”

Han Sui showed a fierce look in his eyes and said, "Let's mention it first, see if he agrees." If it doesn't work, then we'll take it ourselves. ”

Of course, Marten also wanted Northlands.

Although the population of Northland County is small, it is one of the important gateways to the outside of the Saiwai.

If it is taken down, not only will Xiliang have a barrier, but it will also be able to bypass Yongzhou and go directly to Hedong County.

"Okay, I'll ask for Northland County tomorrow. Let's see how the other person reacts. ”

On the third day of the seventh month, Jia Xu visited again.

After the host and guest sat down, Ma Teng said: "The amount of grain and grass consumed by 20,000 soldiers and horses is not a small amount, and 50,000 loads of grain and grass alone is not enough. Of course, if you are willing to give up Northland. We are absolutely willing to send troops to assist Wen Hou in defeating the Xiongnu. ”

Hearing Ma Teng's proposal for Northland County, Jia Xu almost laughed.

Beidi County is an important town to resist the outside of the Saiwai, and it is also an important town to monitor Xiliang. Take back Fufeng and Feng Yi, of course our army wants to take Beidi County by chance, how can it be given to you.

It's just wishful thinking!

Jia Xu stood up directly and scolded: "Don't think that we are begging you to send troops. It's just that Wen Hou wants to defeat the Xiongnu as soon as possible so that the people can live a stable life that he wants to recruit you. Since you are so insatiable, there is no need for you to send troops. With Wen Hou's ability, he can defeat the Xiongnu alone and recover Fufeng and Feng Yi. Leave! ”

Jia Xu simply bowed his hand, turned around and prepared to leave.

Han Sui saw Jia Xu's resolute attitude, and immediately stood up and said, "Mr. Wenhe, please stay." Shou Cheng was just worried about the matter of grain and grass. After all, it is not easy to raise an army of 100,000 in Liangzhou alone. ”

For Han Sui's secret threat, Jia Xu sneered. "If it is not easy to feed 100,000 soldiers and horses, some of them can be dismissed. Wen Hou's conditions are like this, if you are willing to send troops, if you are unwilling, then we will send troops ourselves. It's useless to say more, so I'll take my leave first. ”

Han Sui saw that Jia Xu had no negotiable attitude at all.

He said with a look of regret, "Hey. For the sake of the people of the Han Dynasty, Shoucheng and I endured the pain and sent 20,000 troops to help Wenhou fight the Xiongnu. ”

Jia Xu didn't care about Han Sui's acting at all. He said lightly, "That's fine." On behalf of Wenhou, I thanked the two of you for your help. ”

Jia Xu sat down again and discussed with Ma Teng and Han Sui when to send troops and how to cooperate. On the fifth day of the first month, the two families agreed. Jia Xu then set off to return to Chang'an.

Ma Teng sent Ma Chao to escort Jia Xu through Longxi.

On the thirteenth, Jia Xu, who had been running all the way, finally returned to Shili Pavilion outside Chang'an.

Lu Bu saw the carriage coming, got off his horse and stepped forward.

Hearing that Lu Bu personally went out of the city to greet him, Jia Xu immediately got out of the car and made a fuss.

"General Lao personally went out of the city to greet him. The lower officials were terrified. ”

Lu Bu also made a fuss and said, "Wenhe, hard work!" ”

"Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission."

Lu Bu immediately happily took Jia Xu's hand and said, "Let's go, go back to the city." I've prepared a banquet for Wen He! ”

Wenhou Mansion, Lu Bu asked Jia Xu to sit down with his left hand.

Sima Fang sat on the lower right, and Xun You, Mao Jue and other officials sat on the lower right.

Cheng Lian, Cao Xing, Dian Wei and other generals sat on the lower left.

Jia Xu looked at Xun You and Mao Jue with fresh faces, and hurriedly said, "Congratulations to the general, I have a few more talents to help." ”

Lu Bu smiled and said, "Wenhe, I'll introduce you." This is Yingchuan Xunyou. ”

"This is Chen Liumaoju!"

"This is Chen Liudianwei!"

Jia Xu ignored Mao Jue and Dian Wei, and he only paid attention to the name Yingchuan Xunyou.

Yingchuan Xun family!

There's a lot of work here!
