Although Ma Tan claimed to have come to appease Jingnan, in fact, he did not have any hope that someone would take the initiative to take refuge.

The most miserable Wuling barbarians who were bullied all had the idea of waiting for a price to sell, let alone the powerful clan of Jingnan. When the Shu army and the Wu army are still unable to win or lose, the Jingnan clan may not stand in line so early.

This was Ma Yan's opinion, so he was ready to fight alone at the beginning.

However, what Ma Tan didn't expect was that someone really took the initiative to join the team, and they were old acquaintances.

Jingzhou former Changsha Taishou, Han Xuan.

"Han Xuan plans to take his own troops and join forces with the local tyrants to occupy Luo County to fight with us?" Ma Tan took the letter and couldn't help but be a little surprised after reading it in general.

Han Xuan's standing in line made Ma Jian unexpected, and Han Xuan's nomination was also very tempting.

When Han Xuan was in Liu Bei's rule of Jingnan, he had always been the Taishou of Changsha, and he was not beheaded by Wei Yan like Romance. In Ma Yan's impression, he is an honest person, but his position is not firm.

Why?

Because later, when Lu Meng led his troops to attack Jingnan, the first one to surrender was Han Xuan. This was followed by Guiyang County in the south and Wuling County in the west, and only Lingling Taishou Hao Pu did not surrender.

However, even if he became a wall grass, Han Xuan was not reused. At the end of the Battle of Yiling, Han Xuan was dismissed from office and received an idle post in Luo County.

What Ma Jian didn't expect was that Han Xuan, such a wall-headed grass, would also take the initiative to take refuge one day?

Not only that, but the conditions given were so generous that they helped Ma Jian take the county seat. Later, he also had to provide food and straw for the Shu army, and attacked Linxiang together with the local clans, preparing to support Ma Tan to recover the whole of Changsha in a war.

This kind of person who not only has to stand in line, but also personally leads troops to support people is really rare.

"It seems that our Han Taishou has a temper with Dongwu, it seems that Dongwu really bullied him too much." Ma Yan handed the letter to Liu Yin and said with a chuckle.

"Dongwu is really not a good person, forcing even such a wall grass to be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty."

Liu Yin took the letter, read it carefully, and frowned.

"It doesn't feel right......"

"What's wrong?" Ma Tan was stunned for a moment and asked.

"I have been a guard captain in Chengdu for many years, and I have seen how much those heroes cherish private soldiers. Basically, the vast majority of Haoqiang will regard the private army as more important than life, and it is generally unlikely that they will take the initiative to take it. Liu Yin replied that he was different from Ma Yan, he had always been the captain of the gate guard in Chengdu before, and he often dealt with the scholars.

Therefore, he knows these powerful clans better than Ma Yan, and understands their temperament.

"As Han Xuan, it is not difficult to bring the troops out to help in the battle. It is absolutely impossible for the great clan he follows to agree to come up with his own tribes. ”

"But the letter said that the big clans and powerful people want to send troops to help the war, which is obviously an unreasonable signal."

Liu Yin's explanation made Ma Jian hesitate a little, and thought for a while,

Huran means...... Is this a trap? ”

"I'm not sure about that, but I think their reaction was a little too unusual...... Maybe I'm thinking too much, it's just that the Jingnan Shi clan is looking to the big man. Liu Yin didn't dare to say too much, but cautiously expressed his doubts to Ma Yan.

"If there's a little bit of an anomaly, it's certainly not a good thing. If they were loyal ministers, Lu Meng would not have been able to defeat Jingnan back then. Ma Yan shook his head and said bluntly.

"Looking at it this way, there is a high probability that Han Xuan is a trap here, and it is just a trick that Dongwu wants to ambush me."

Ma Jian never had any hope for the scholars, and their greed Ma Jian had seen it. So since there is an abnormal behavior, there must be someone behind the calculation.

"And what about our general? Write a letter of rejection? Or a false shot to raid Linxiang? Liu Yin asked.

Ma Yan pondered for a while with his chin in mind, then turned his head and ordered.

"Bring me the map, let me see it!"

The guards brought a map of Jingnan and unfolded it in front of Ma Yan. After looking around the map, Ma Tan suddenly thought of something, and the smile on his face gradually became immoral.

"Refusal? Why did you reject Han Xuan? ”

"I don't just want to go to Luo County, I want to go with great fanfare! I want to go to Luo County to meet Han Xuan under the nose of Wu Jun of the public security! ”

Ma Yan's sudden change of attitude caught Liu Yin off guard for a while. But soon he stabilized, after all, the general's decision has never been lost, what are he afraid of?

The general must have his reason, and I will just carry out the order and study hard.

Soon after Han Xuan sent someone to contact Ma Yan, Ma Jian set off in Wuxi. More than 4,000 Shu troops walked out of the Wuxi Mountains in an open and honest manner, and rushed along the road towards Changsha County.

There was also a small episode in this, and Wuling Taishou also tried to lead the troops to block the road. As a result, the county guard, who planned to make military achievements, saw the power of the strongest general in the lightweight field battle of Shu Han.

More than 3,000 Wuling soldiers were defeated by Ma Tan with more than 300 cavalry. If it weren't for the fast running of the county guard, Ma Jian would have knocked Linyuan down.

After the defeat of the Wuling soldiers, the Shu army swaggered eastward from Wuling without the slightest cover.

This made Ding Feng, who was in the public security, a little embarrassed, and he didn't know whether he should send troops to intercept him.

It is easy for the Shu army to suspect if he does not send troops, and if the Shu army runs away directly, his plan will be in vain.

In the end, Ding Feng only sent 1,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people to intercept him, putting on an attitude of trying to stop Ma Yan. However, the main forces secretly gathered in the area of Dongting Lake, preparing to give the Shu army a big surprise.

However, because of the swagger of the large army of the Shu army, Ding Feng did not notice that the number of the Shu army was a small part less.

When the main force of the Shu army waved the banner of Ma Tan and marched towards Luo County on the main road. More than 100 light horsemen quietly slipped out of the Wuxi Mountains and walked along the path along the Yuanjiang River.

Luo County,

"Master, are we really going to wade into this troubled water? If something goes wrong, we will become a thorn in Xishu's side. ”

One of Han Xuan's henchmen was very hesitant and asked Han Xuan.

"Do you think I want to wade into troubled waters? Do we have a choice? Han Xuan shook his head and said with a very ugly face.

"We are now on the territory of Soochow, and if I refuse, I don't think I will be able to return to next month."

"As for the hatred of Xishu...... Let's talk about it later. ”

Ding Feng personally wrote a letter and directly threatened Han Xuan that he must participate in the calculation of Ma Yan. If Han Xuan dared to refuse, he would definitely die.

"Then we might as well just fake it and go directly to the Han army......"

"Fake drama is really a fart, what can they do?" Han Xuan snorted coldly, obviously looking down on Ma Yan's little person.

There were three or four thousand people in all, and I heard that most of them were foreign barbarians. At that level, how could he beat the soldiers and horses of Eastern Wu in Jingnan.

The public security alone has more than 10,000 troops in Eastern Wu, and I heard that the Wu soldiers in Jiaozhou have also begun to march north.

What do you win with?

"It's better to prepare......" Han Xuan waved his hand, he was really about to give an order, and suddenly a personal soldier rushed in and reported to Han Xuan urgently.

"The head of the family, there are more than ten envoys sent by Xishu outside, saying that they want to see you."
