Chapter 183 is nothing!

Jia Xu and Fa Zheng really came up with a plan that night. Ma Chao took a look and felt that he was too wise and martial.

This plan is a feasible plan that took all the brain cells of Jia Xu and Fa Zheng to come up after considering all the conditions under the rule of Ma. At least, in Ma Chao's opinion, he feels that he can't come up with such a plan. As a result, he became more and more determined to implement the three-provincial system.

In this plan, the army was divided into three routes, led by Pang De, Chou Ge and Yan Xing as the vanguard, respectively. Ma Chao personally led a large army to take over and finally hunt in Tianshui County. At that time, we will consider whether to break through Longxi and unify Yongzhou in one fell swoop.

Among the three pioneers, Pound's men took Fa Zheng as their military division, Brother Chou's men took Yang Fu as their military division, and Yan Xing's men took Meng Da as their military division. The generals are one and each shows their abilities. The three strikers each led 3,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry, a total of 15,000. Ma Chao led 10,000 cavalry, one as a response and the other as a suspect, so that the guards of the three counties did not know the intention and specific number of the Ma family. As for the 5,000-person team of heavy cavalry and heavy infantry, Jia Xu and Fa Zheng did not know, and Ma Chao intended to use them as the last card.

In addition to the necessary defensive forces, the Ma family can be said to be an eagle fighting rabbit and doing their best. The redistribution of the generals and soldiers of the three armies should be handed over to Han Feng. And he also wrote to the Dongqiang tribe and asked Zhongjian, Hiya Deji and other leaders to mobilize warriors to the three counties and pretend to attack, so as to confuse the three counties and exert pressure. The whole plan is silky and magnificent, which makes Ma Chao very excited.

However, at the regular meeting, Hua Xin put forward his opinions: "Young master, soldiers, cunnives, major events of the country, places of life and death, and the way of survival must be observed. This time, there is no way to rise up soldiers. It is not to follow orders, nor to suppress bandit rebellion. I'm afraid it will be difficult to win.

Ma Chao narrowed his eyes and was too lazy to answer Hua Xin's opinion.

Since ancient times, there have been no righteous soldiers in troubled times, which does not mean that you can stand at the commanding heights of justice and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. It's just that in the period of cold weapons, standing on the commanding heights of righteousness can more or less stimulate the morale of soldiers.

In the period of cold weapons, fighting a war is actually a morale war. Under the condition that the number of people is basically equal and the ability of generals is equal, the party with strong morale can indeed defeat the party with low morale. But in fact, there are many comprehensive factors that determine the morale of soldiers.

The protection of the people of the three counties is indeed one of the factors, but if the county guards are mediocre, the people are rebellious, or the generals are incompetent and useless to inspire the soldiers to unite, even if the three counties occupy justice, they can only talk about it at most when they are scolding.

In contrast, the Ma family army, although this dispatch of troops is purely for the benefit of the Ma family. But the problem is that the soldier hierarchy formulated by Ma Chao precisely grasps the morale of soldiers. It makes them yearn for war, victory, and more rights and interests for themselves and their families. When sending troops, there is no need to motivate or mobilize morale, and the soldiers have spontaneously risen to the extreme.

In a word, Ma Chao admitted that this battlefield was a war of aggression. But behind the war, it is actually an economic war: the flagship products such as distilled wine, fried tea, wind paper and coal invented by the Ma family are in urgent need of a larger and more profitable market. Open up the passage between Yongzhou and Liangzhou to maximize economic benefits. It is the fundamental purpose of every war crime and the most solid guarantee of victory.

In those years, well, in the future, when the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded the Qing government, they did not have any justice at all, but those miscellaneous people relied on huge economic interests and strong artillery to fight the corrupt and incompetent Qing government. The motivation and behind-the-scenes purpose of Ma Chao's dispatch of troops is the same as that of the Eight-nation coalition.

Naturally, all the people present were very human. After Hua Xin's words fell, without waiting for Jia Xu and Fa Zheng to speak, Yang Fu said first: "The fish is wrong. Since the young master implemented the military reform, the Ma soldiers and soldiers have all had the intention to fight, and their morale is like a long rainbow. The power of the Ma family is even more like the sky. In this turbulent plan of the world, it is really unwise to give Yongzhou and not take it!"

"Yang Fu! How can there be such a fatherless word!" Hua Xin was angry and stood up and scolded, "The loyalty of the monarch is to invade Dahan County for no reason, which is a great rebellious act. After the Ma family was a famous minister, he was loyal to the Han Dynasty, and the lord was even more willing to do the act of Han Fubo. Don't you feel ashamed to confuse the public and talk about the way of heaven here?

As soon as Hua Xin said this, the council chamber suddenly fell into silence. Pound and Ma Dai, who have a good relationship with Yang Fu, have already held their swords in their hands, and their anger is obvious.

"Hua Xin, I don't know any big Han court. I only know that my life was given by the young master, and everything today is also given by the young master. The young master said he wanted to fight, so I risked my life to fight that bird county. What a bullshit for the court, ah! I can tell you clearly that the brothers under me are the same as me. I have been waiting for a war and promotion for a long time! If you dare to say more nonsense, I will chop you up now!"

Huang Yuan, the ugly brother, is not as well-breded as Pound and Ma Dai. I heard that Hua Xin means that he wants the Ma family to be the lackey of the court, give up the great interests of the country, and go for a reputation that is worthless... In particular, Brother Chou has a close relationship with Yang Fu. He is reckless and has always respected scholars, and Yang Fu has never been rude and falls in love with him. Brother Chou has learned a lot from Yang Fu that he can't figure out... At this time, when he heard that Hua Xin dared to scold Yang Fu, he immediately jumped up and pointed to Hua Xin's nose and cursed.

As soon as this word came out, the faces of everyone in the council hall changed, and Hua Xin was ashamed and angry; Yang Fu looked stunned and grateful; Pound and Ma Dai were speechless and seemed to support Brother Ug's behavior; Zhang Ji and Meng Da were just ready to persuade him; while Yan Xing was an indifferent virtue, and even Ma Chao clearly saw a smile from the corners of Yan Xing's mouth.

What's more hateful is the eyes of Jia Xu and Fa Zheng: What do you mean? Do you think Brother Chou's behavior was instructed by him? I'm not Song Jiang. He doesn't have such a honey-bellied sword and a good-bellied face...

Ma Chao doesn't blame Jia Xu and Fa Zheng for their expressions like this. Smart people think everything is smart. Especially today, as long as Ma Chao scolds Brother Chou for a few words, comforts Hua Xin, and then twists the policies of the Ma family to serve the court, even if Hua Xin sees Ma Chao's meaning, he can't go against Ma Chao's majesty: after all, in order to win you, even his own confidant generals are scolded. Blame. If you don't know how to be interested, you don't want to be in the Ma group.

But Ma Chao doesn't want this. His purpose is very clear, and he requires that the central values of a group should also be clear. All the forces in the group should also strive in a unified direction.

Except for Hua Xin and Yan Xing, everyone in the Ma Group knows Ma Chao's intention. Among them, Jia Xu and Fazheng are wise and thoughtful, and their hearts are as deep as the sea. They don't mind the change of the country at all. They are loyal supporters of Ma Chao; Pang De, Chou Ge, Ma Dai and Han Feng are the first class of Ma Chao, and they are hard dead poles; Zhang Ji, Su Ze, You Chu, Fu Xun, Fu Gan, Meng Da, Mengta and others, or by Ma Chao's general Over time, he gradually became indifferent to Ma Chao's attitude towards the court.

I never thought that today's policy actually led to the real idea in Hua Xin's heart, which also led to the first ideological struggle within the group.

At this time, all sentient beings were in a variety of states, but Ma Chao did not say a word. After frowning, he slowly said, "Hua Shulang, the plan to send troops to Yongzhou is an idea decided yesterday. You didn't say a word yesterday, but today you have to overthrow the policy of Zhongshu Province. Don't you think that my advisers and generals are all clowns in your eyes?
