"Luck? I don't think so, I get into a mess every day. If it weren't for me, I'm afraid that the big man would have been wiped out by Ma Tan. Zhuge Liang snorted lightly and said while shaking his feather fan.

For this reason, Huang Quan just smiled and said nothing, quietly listening to Zhuge Liang's complaints.

It has been two years since he returned to Dahan, and he has a little understanding of the relationship between Ma Jian and Zhuge Liang. So if Zhuge Liang was a little resentful, he didn't take it to heart.

In fact, if Liu Chan is Zhuge Liang's own son, then Ma Tan must at least be a godson (Zhuge Zhan: Then I'll go).

The care for the former comes from Liu Bei's heavy kindness and the feelings raised from childhood to adulthood. The concern for the latter comes from the brotherly friendship with Ma Liang and the importance of the apprentice.

Therefore, as soon as Ma Tan made trouble, Zhuge Liang wanted to beat him. But after pumping, Zhuge Liang will still carefully wipe their butts.

Sure enough, after some complaints, Zhuge Liang still honestly summarized the mess that Ma Jian had made. After sorting out the order, Zhuge Liang began to take care of the rear for the hussar general.

"Please General Lu Zhi come to the Prime Minister's Mansion, don't bring any torture instruments, put two cups of hot tea on my mansion, and I want to talk to this Fufeng talent."

"You can send a message to Li Hui, ordering him to hold Wancheng tightly and guard against the movement of the Eastern Wu naval army in the direction of Xiakou. In such a big event, Sun Quan could not have no reaction, and he would definitely have thoughts about Jingzhou. ”

"You sent him to Hongnong, so who did Nanyang send to guard it?"

"The hussars entered the annexed state, and the direction of Nanyang was also in an emergency. At present, Chang'an can have the prestige to sit in Wancheng, I'm afraid only Wen Chang. ”

Seeing Huang Quan's smile gradually disappearing, Zhuge Liang couldn't help laughing, and the old man shook his feather fan for a long time and said,

"This time, the puppet Wei pressed the Nanyang front-line army, and it was menacing, obviously with the determination to fight to the death. But at present, the Chang'an Mansion Treasury is empty, and it is impossible to mobilize the army to help, so it can only rely on the defenders of Nanyang to fight. ”

"Wait...... Kong Ming, let Wei Yan go to Shouhongnong? So what about Nanyang? Hearing Zhuge Liang's deployment, Huang Quan was stunned for a moment, and asked with a frown.

"Well...... Zhuge Liang also smiled, and then said slowly.

"As for the enemy situation in Hongnong County, don't worry, order Wu Yi to hold Pujindu, and then I can order the general Wei Yan to go to the town to guard. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the garrison of the Han army is not empty, so there is no need to worry about this way. ”

"So Nanyang is an important battlefield, even Wei Yan is probably not competent. Therefore, it is necessary to send a veteran who is old and stable and proficient in the art of war......"

"Well, this candidate is naturally not you, but me!"

"You're talking about this veteran...... It won't mean me!! Huang Quan understood now, and his face suddenly darkened.

"From Nanyang's emergency, it can be determined that this time the Wei army has learned well, and did not transfer the main force to the north to fight with Youchang. Instead, he dispatched the elite to enter the capital from Xudu, obviously wanting to avoid Ma Jian and replicate the strategy of Gaozu to break Xiang Yu in the past. ”

"So this position is only for me to stabilize people's hearts and stop the Wei army under Wancheng City!"

"How old is the old man, he works overtime in the Prime Minister's Mansion every day, why do you have to be sent abroad......"

Zhuge Liang knows very well that what is most lacking in the Nanyang battlefield at the moment is actually people's hearts. After all, if the imperial army could not support him, if he was not present, it would be difficult to convince the public with the prestige of Li Hui and Wang Ping.

"As for the affairs of Chang'an, Gongheng will be in charge."

"Okay...... The autumn harvest is coming, and by October, the treasury should be full. Huang Quan nodded slightly, and had no objection to this.

The only good news is that under Ma Yan's reform, the efficiency of the Han bureaucracy has been greatly improved. Even if Zhuge Liang leaves Chang'an and is close to Jiang Wan, Fei Yi and others, he can maintain the operation of the court.

If it weren't for that, Zhuge Liang really wouldn't dare to leave Chang'an easily.

"By the way, Gongheng, after I leave Chang'an, you must always pay attention to the situation on Ma Yan's side." Zhuge Liang got up and prepared to return to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but soon he remembered it again, turned his head to look at Huang Quan and asked.

"Children are often adventurous, and often don't take their own safety seriously. You must pay more attention, if there is an accident, you also need to pay more attention to it! ”

In the face of Zhuge Liang's request, Huang Quan's expression was also grim, and he immediately nodded seriously,

"No problem, as long as I, Huang Quan, am still alive, I won't let something happen to you! If he I heard that he was too risky, I would fight for my life to save the young man! ”

At the same time that Chang'an in the rear began to make a series of deployments, Ma Tan made rapid progress in Bingzhou.

Liu Bao is still more reliable than Hu Chuquan. After more than half a month of purging the interior, he quickly led 20,000 Hun soldiers and horses southward and came to Pingyang County to join the Han army.

20,000 Xiongnu soldiers and horses converged with 20,000 Han troops in Pingyang County, and the army was huge for a time.

When Ma Jian saw the generals again, he found that Deng Ai had a blue nose and swollen face. I was a little surprised for a while, and hurriedly asked the reason.

In this regard, Deng Ai can only say that he accidentally fell down and was injured a little. Although Ma Jian was a little unconvinced, Deng Ai didn't plan to explain too much.

Can he say that because of his bad idea, he caused Ma Jian to take risks, and then he was beaten up by the other servants?

But fortunately, Ma Jian came back safely, and their hanging hearts were finally let go.

"Speaking of which, is there any movement in the Wei army? How's the party? Seeing that Deng Ai didn't intend to explain, Ma Tan didn't continue to ask, but went straight to the point.

"General, during the time you went north to Jinyang, a large number of Wei troops gathered in Tunliu. At the same time as the five Xiongnu were heading south, I heard that the Wei army had begun to enter Guyuan, and it was stuck on the way for our army to enter Shangdang. Jiang Wei quickly explained to Ma Jian and handed all the battle reports of the past half a month to Ma Yan.

In the past half a month, although the Wei army in Bingzhou lost contact with Wang Jing, they did not give up resistance. After Sun Li's support arrived, the Wei army began to divide its troops to hold various passes and guard against the eastward advance of the Han army.

When Ma Tan led the Xiongnu army south, the Shangdang Wei army had also increased to 60,000 troops. The troops and horses of all departments will block the road from Taiyuan and Pingyang to Shangdang, so they will have to build the city on the spot.

"I said why did the pseudo-Wei react so quickly, it turned out to be the old rival Sun Li." When Ma Tan saw the other party's main general, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Although the Wei generals in Guanzhong were the longest, they were also the most experienced in combat.

Guo Huai was an example before, with 100,000 people like loaches, so that Ma Jian couldn't catch him at all.
