Chapter 300: My heart is in turmoil
was broken by Huangfu Song's words, Ma Chao was even more in a trance, and he didn't know how to answer.
Ma Dai said coldly: "How my brother chooses is his own business. I'm afraid it's not my turn to put my beak down. ”
Huangfu Song looked at Ma Chao coldly and said: "Don't forget, the reason why your command can come to this point, shock the world, and occupy Liangzhou is because His Majesty has done everything possible to protect the court." If it weren't for His Majesty's Houze, his subordinates would have been stepped on by the general He Jin and the world's families. Can Ann have today? The old man finally advised his subordinates, don't get carried away, otherwise you will fall into a desperate situation if you make a mistake! ”
Ma Chao didn't know how to choose, whether to enter Beijing or not. Hearing Huangfu Song's threat, he was even more confused, and he didn't know what to do.
Jia Xu said lightly: "The young master of my family didn't make up his mind for a while, so why bother with each other?" Your Majesty wants to recruit the young master of my family into Beijing, and it will not be immediately promoted within these two days. It's better to let my young master go back and think about it, and then it's not too late to make plans. ”
Huangfu Song finally looked at Ma Chao with an unkind gaze, and without saying a word, he went straight to Chang'an City.
Seeing this, Ma Chao, who was still in turmoil, had no choice but to order the whole army to return to the camp. Remembering that he had just ordered his troops to cut off the water of Kunming Pond and cut off the water source of Chang'an City, he ordered the restoration of the water supply from Kunming Pool to Chang'an City.
After the Xiliang army withdrew into the barracks, Ma Chao also led his subordinates and returned to his shogunate. Just as he jumped out of the saddle and walked towards the shogunate, he looked up and saw that his father, Ma Teng, was standing in front of the shogunate, waiting for him.
Ma Chao hurriedly put aside his thoughts, and walked forward quickly to salute.
"Son to father."
"Subordinates (last generals) see the lord!"
Ma Teng took Ma Chao's hand, and the father and son walked into the shogunate hand in hand.
Ma Chao helped Ma Teng to the first place, and asked: "Didn't my father deal with migrants and transport materials in Liangzhou?" Why did you find time to come here again? ”
Ma Teng sat down, smiled and said: "There are six Cao assistants to handle political affairs for my father, and the matter of Liangzhou migrants and transporting back materials is in full swing and orderly, and it is almost over." For my father's leisure, I heard that Chao'er is besieging Chang'an City, and I want to come here to have a look. If you can break through this impregnable Chang'an City with Chao'er, you can be a father and get a touch of Chao'er's light and earn some false fame. In the future, it can be said that the capture of Chang'an will also be a credit for the father. ”
Ma Chao knew that Ma Teng missed him very much, and he was worried about what he had missed on the battlefield, so he came forward at the juncture of the migrants halfway through. Listening to Ma Teng's jokes, Ma Chao, who was originally in turmoil, also relaxed a lot and was in a happy mood.
Ma Chao said with a smile: "Look at what my father said, my father became famous on the battlefield much earlier than his son, otherwise the former Liangzhou Assassin Shi Geng would not have promoted his father to be the military Sima of the good family of the six counties." It was also his father who led the army to pacify the two counties of Anding and Beidi, and the sons of the six counties were attached. Who in the world doesn't know his father's Weining? ”
Ma Teng smiled and said, "Look, I put on a high hat for my father again, and I will say something to please my father." It's been a few days since the siege of Chang'an City, how? Is there a plan to take Chang'an City? ”
Ma Chao was about to speak, but Yang Fu hurriedly stood up and said, "Back to the lord, the lord came at the right time today." Because just today, his subordinates have just drawn up a plan to capture Chang'an City! ”
Ma Chaozhun knew Yang Fu's thoughts, and said angrily: "Look at you, I didn't say that I won't give you a credit!" ”
Yang Fu, who was exposed, scratched his head embarrassedly.
Ma Teng said curiously, "Oh? Yishan can be said quickly. ”
Yang Fu smiled: "This matter is easy to hear! The water source of Chang'an City is completely dependent on the supply of Kunming Pool. And our army surrounded Chang'an City, and the officers and troops did not dare to go out of the city, and they could not control the water source of Chang'an City. Therefore, our army only needs to cut off the water supply from Kunming Pool to Chang'an City, and then force the officers and troops to go out of the city to fight a decisive battle with our army, and our army will win the decisive battle! ”
Ma Teng was a little excited and said: "Chang'an City was built by Emperor Gao and is the old capital of the Han Dynasty. If it can be captured, the prestige of our Xiliang Army will surely spread far and wide, and the world will be terrified! Since Yishan has such a clever plan, we can act quickly, cut off the water source of Chang'an, force the officers and soldiers to go out of the city to fight, and decide the victory or defeat in one battle! ”
Hearing Ma Teng say this, Ma Chao felt even more regretful. In the last second, he is also very likely to take Chang'an City, so as to become a world-famous general. But now, there is no need for him to take Chang'an City again.
Ma Chao said: "Father, we can't capture Chang'an City. It just so happened that my father was here today, and there happened to be a matter that my son had to discuss carefully with his father, as well as the important advisers and generals in the army. ”
"What's the matter? Why can't you capture Chang'an City? Ma Teng's face was full of question marks.
Ma Chao handed Jian Shuo's letter to Ma Teng, and after Ma Teng read it, he did not fall into the same confusion and confusion as Ma Chao.
Ma Teng said: "What is the matter of returning the word for the father! It turned out that the Son of Heaven wanted to take advantage of Huangfu Song's defeat by our Xiliang army, forcing Huangfu Song to change his banner and obey orders again, and at the same time use Huangfu Song's whistleblowing to cut off the power of the general He Jin and Taifu Yuan Kui. He Jin and Yuan Kui also took advantage of the decline of He Jin and Yuan Kui to recruit Chao'er into Beijing to strengthen the military power. ”
Ma Chao said: "Father is wise, that's exactly the case. He didn't know how to choose, he didn't know whether to obey the king's orders, lead the army into Beijing, and consolidate the monarchy; still did not obey the king's order, continued to stay in Liangzhou, and divided one side. ”
Ma Teng said bluntly: "For the sake of my father, it's better not to enter Beijing." ”
Seeing Ma Teng say his claim so decisively, Ma Chao was a little surprised and asked, "Why, father?" ”
Ma Teng said: "I waited for the father and son to finally capture Liangzhou and divide one side, and now is the time to enjoy the benefits brought by the division of one side, and it is a critical moment to develop Liangzhou and strengthen its strength." As a father, he knows that his qualifications are mediocre, whether it is governing or leading soldiers, he is far inferior to you. If you leave Liangzhou and stay for your father to govern the sixteen counties of Liangzhou, your father will definitely be stretched.
Besides, Liangzhou is my Ma's foundation. After his father is old and weak, he must pass it on to you and inherit the inheritance. The Son of Heaven summoned you to Beijing, in fact, it is another form of quality. The Son of Heaven regards you as an arm and a confidant, although he will not cause harm suddenly. But the court is not only determined by the Son of Heaven, there are still ten permanent servants in Luoyang City, including the general He Jin, the Taifu Yuan Kui, the Taiwei Cao Song, and the sons of the family who regard our father and son as enemies who do not share the same hatred! If they plot to harm you, if you make a mistake, what can you do for the father? Fufeng Ma Naro? ”
