"It seems that you have gained a lot from the treasury of Hanoi County?" Ma Jian raised his eyebrows, looked at Jiang Wei who was dancing with his eyebrows and said.

"The harvest is indeed huge, and this time the harvest is so big that we can get rid of the dependence on the logistics of the six towns in a short time." Jiang Wei nodded and said with great certainty.

The 20,000 northern troops and 20,000 Xiongnu servants, supported by the inventory of Hanoi County, could even completely eliminate logistics for a period of time. Not only did the six towns not need to transport grain to the south, but even the Jinyang Xiongnu army no longer needed to bring their own dry food.

Of course, the accounts still have to be settled, and those who should bring their own dry food still have to bring their own. But this time, it can be regarded as letting Ma Tan really see how rich Kanto is.

In just one Hanoi district, the population and food output are almost the highest in the whole Guanzhong. And there are many such rich counties in the Kanto region!

Of course, Ma Tan actually didn't know that Hanoi County could gain so much this time, mainly because the local wealthy families had already swayed. Since the trip to Luoyang three years ago, Hanoi County has begun to withhold a large amount of taxes, intending to use them as bargaining chips.

If it weren't for Ma Yan's quick arrival and Sima Wang's frightening, they would never have been willing to sell their family at such a low price.

Subsequently, Ma Tan quickly entered Hanoi County with the Han army, and took the Han army to eat here. At the same time, Ma Jian also wrote to Huang Quan in Chang'an, asking that in view of the current logistics being no longer tight, he could serve as a soldier for the front line.

While asking for reinforcements from Chang'an, Ma Jian also ordered Shu Ji and Zhang Wei to lead troops to fight for the Yellow River crossing. As long as this place was taken, the Han army could smoothly cross the Yellow River and quickly attack Luoyang Yin.

But soon, Zhang Wei and Shu Ji came back in disgrace and reported a very embarrassing thing to Ma Yan.

Because Ma Tan was pinned down in Hanoi County for half a month, the Wei army attacking Hongnong had withdrawn in time.

In particular, its commander, Biqiu Jian, has rich experience in horse combat. After hearing that Ma Tan had invaded Shangdang, he personally led the troops to withdraw as soon as possible to occupy the ferry.

When Zhang Wei and Shu Ji led their troops to the ferry, the Wei army was already in full battle. And the troops they led were all from the north, and they were not accustomed to water, and in the end they failed to take the ferry.

"Biqiu Jian...... It's really an old acquaintance. Ma Jian remembered his entire old acquaintance again, this was the kid he had met in Nanyang.

Unexpectedly, the young general I met a few years ago has now become General Cao Wei.

"Biqiu Jian is not an ordinary general, his ability to command troops and combat is very strong, and you are not used to water, so it is normal that you can't grab the ferry." Ma Jian waved his hand and said to Zhang Wei and Shu Ji,

"Let's go rest first, and when I'm done with this little thing, I'll personally lead the troops south and grab the Yellow River crossing with the Wei army!"

As for what Ma Jian is going to be busy with, it is naturally to make up for the treatment that Biqiu Jian missed.

When he played against Biqiu Jian in Nanyang before, Ma Jian also habitually compiled a little bit of small composition for Biqiu Jian.

It's just that I didn't know his name at the time, so this rumor was never signed, and I forgot about it later. It was only now that Ma Jian remembered that it was time to correct Biqiu Jian's name.

Thinking of this, Ma Jian quickly took out a piece of paper, picked up the pen and began to write,

"Why does Biqiu Jian want to keep the history of the close relationship with Cao Rui in the past......"

…………

…………

…………

At the same time, on the banks of the Yellow River, Biqiu Jian, who was commanding the Wei army to fortify along the ferry, suddenly shivered, and a bitter chill suddenly rose in his heart.

This feeling...... It's as if someone is plotting against him behind his back, which makes Biqiu Jian feel that something bad is about to happen.

However, soon Biqiu Jian shook his head again and smiled self-deprecatingly.

"I'm really thinking too much, is there anything worse than Ma Tan entering Kou Luoyang? Or hurry up to complete the deployment and defend the land for Your Majesty! ”

If you want to talk about Biqiujian's life resume, it can be regarded as extremely successful at the beginning. Because his fief is next to Cao Rui's fief, he has a good relationship with this big leader early.

And Cao Rui is also a person with good feelings, as soon as he took office, he quickly pulled Biqiu Jian into the court, and his career was extremely smooth.

If it weren't for Ma Tan's appearance, he would probably have gone all the way to Huainan and rebelled.

However, although his start was the help of Cao Rui, Biqiu Jian is by no means a showman. He has a very strong personal learning ability and has made rapid progress through continuous experience.

It can be seen from the battle of Nanyang in the past that if it weren't for Ma Tan's shaking spirit, he might not have been able to help Biqiu Jian.

After that, Biqiu Jian also continued to improve, and became Cao Wei's right general two years ago. And this time, after hearing about Ma Yan, he also decisively retreated with his army and blocked the Han army on the north bank of the Yellow River.

"General Right, Da Sima sent someone to order us to abandon the crossing of the Yellow River and retreat to Beibi Mountain!" At this time, Biqiu Jian's lieutenant suddenly came from the rear army and reported to Biqiu Jian.

"Da Sima? I don't seem to be under his jurisdiction, do I? Biqiu Jian frowned, and refused very neatly.

"Tell Da Sima that I am on the orders of His Majesty and have the responsibility of guarding the country, and I can't give up an inch, so I can't retreat!"

"Besides, what if I withdraw the troops that are still on the road? They will be blocked west of Hangu by the Shu army by then, and I will be the sinner of the whole army by that time! ”

The Great Sima Jiang Ji was appointed to be in charge of the defense of Luoyang Yin at this moment, in order to prepare to prevent the eastward advance of the Shu army. However, as the right general, Biqiu Jian was a general directly appointed by Cao Rui, and he did not plan to listen to Jiang Ji's orders.

And he can't retreat at this moment, after all, he still has half of the parts that have not been withdrawn. If the Shu army is allowed to land on the south bank, he will have to be forced to death by the Shu army if he remains on the Yuhan Ancient Road.

"But General You, Da Sima said that you can't hold the crossing of the Yellow River, and it will be ...... in two days."

"Can't hold it? If you can't keep it, you have to keep it! Go back and tell Da Sima that even if I can't hold this ferry, I will definitely hit Ma Jian hard here! Reassure him! Biqiu Jian waved his hand and said without hesitation.

"I'm fully prepared, just waiting for Ma Jian to come in person. As long as Ma Tan dares to fight in person, I am confident that he will die in this crossing! ”

With that, Biqiu Jian sent his generals away and continued to deploy his defensive line.

Under his deployment, 50,000 Wei troops built several defensive lines along the banks of the Yellow River, and a earthen city was born at the end of the ferry. At the same time, it was some other deployment, and Biqiu Jian firmly believed that he would be able to block the Shu army on the north bank of the Yellow River.

Half a month later, Ma Jian basically finished handling his personal affairs. After leaving Deng Ai in charge of guarding Hanoi County, Ma Jian led tens of thousands of Han troops south to the crossing of the Yellow River.
