Chapter 403 Mutual Use
When Fa Zheng arrived in Liangzhou, it was already three days later. As soon as he entered Liangzhou Fa Zheng, he felt the tension coming to his face.
Ma Teng and Han Sui are very powerful in Liangzhou. The two divided the huge Liangzhou into two and fought with each other for several years. This sudden war spread widely.
"Go straight to Wuwei." The law is instructing the way.
Wuwei is the most important county in Liangzhou, and the center of the war between the two sides is in Wuwei. In just a few days, Fa Zheng rushed outside Xuanwei City. Ma Teng's army was stationed in Xuanwei City.
As soon as the motorcade arrived more than ten miles away from Xuanwei City, it was found by the patrolling Liangzhou soldiers. Hundreds of Liangzhou soldiers riding war horses surrounded dozens of people. A famous cavalryman ran quickly around the convoy, as if they were ready to attack at any time.
"Who are you?" A young general stared coldly at the carriageway.
"My adult was ordered by Jingzhou Mu to come to discuss important things with your general. Why don't you report it as soon as possible?" A flying dragon guard suddenly came forward and shouted coldly, with no fear in the face of the cavalry around him.
"Jingzhou Mu?" The young general of Liangzhou exclaimed that the last time Ma Chao suffered a loss in Jingzhou, and the whole Liangzhou is still spreading this matter.
Ma Chao's bravery is famous in Liangzhou, and because of this, he has a high prestige in the whole Liangzhou, and he has a high status in the hearts of these Liangzhou soldiers.
Ma Chao was defeated by Zhao Yun last time. Although he was suppressed by Ma Chao, he was still spread to Liangzhou, and the whole Liangzhou was in an uproar.
"I heard that there is a general Zhao Yun under the command of Jingzhou Mu. I don't know if he has ever come?" After saying that, the young general raised his eyes and looked at the dozens of soldiers in front of him. After a moment, he was a little disappointed. He also wanted to see if Zhao Yun really had the ability to defeat the major general or used means to defeat the major general.
"Hmm?" Feilongwei narrowed his eyes and glanced at the people in front of him. I don't know why the people in front of him looked at them after hearing that they were from Jingzhou. Even a few people stared at them.
"What happened?" At this moment, dozens of people rushed over on a fast horse, and the leader was Pound, the general under Ma Teng's command.
"Flying Dragon Guard?" As soon as he approached the crowd, Pound recognized the armor worn by the Flying Dragon Guard.
"General, they said they were from Jingzhou and said that they were ordered by the herdsman of Jingzhou to discuss important matters with the lord."
"In Lower Pound, I don't know who is in the carriage?" Pound raised his eyes and asked in a low voice in a carriage escorted by dozens of people. There is more caution in my eyes. The power in Jingzhou has developed too fast, and the power has doubled in a few months. Even Liangzhou has to be cautious.
Since the people in this carriage can take the flying dragon guard as their guard, their status in Jingzhou is not low.
"Ha ha, but General Pound Pound?" Just as Pound guessed, a wolf roar suddenly came from the carriage, and then the door opened, and Fa Zheng came out with a smile on his face.
"I'm right. I don't know who you are?" Pound was stunned. Although the person in front of him was just a Confucian student, his demeanor overwhelmed the hundreds of people around him, which was really not to be despised.
Looking at this person, Pound couldn't help but narrow his eyes. Is this person Pang Tong from Jingzhou, or is he Ju Shu? Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu have met him, and Jia Xu has never seen him again. This person's temperament can only be Pang Tong and Ju Shu, who has just defected to Jingzhou.
"Ha ha, when I served under the command of the lord at the beginning of the next month, the nobody made the general laugh." The law is arching.
"Fa Zheng, but Yizhou Fa filial piety?" Pang De was shocked that Liu Qi captured Yizhou, and even everyone in Yizhou was subdued?
"I didn't think the general still knew me. I came here to discuss important things with General Zhengxi at the order of the lord. Please report it on behalf of the general." Fa Zheng was stunned and then said loudly.
"The messenger is polite. Why don't you go and report it to the Lord." Pound said to the little general beside him, and after saying that, he led his men to get out of the way and took Fa Zheng and others to Xuanwei City.
In Xuanwei City
On the hall, Ma Teng was looking at the crowd with a condensed face. All the generals under his command and several of his sons were all here. Just as he received the news from the tower, Cao Cao actually sent messengers to Liangzhou. Now he has arrived in Wuwei City, and his opposite Han Sui is now leading the army to station in Wuwei City.
"Father, give me 10,000 troops, and I'm going to step on Wuwei to catch Han Sui alive." Ma Chao said with a ferocious face that his mother died at the hands of Han Sui and hated Han Sui to the bone. How could there be any change again?
"Nonsense, how can Cao Cao easily offend him if he has just defeated Yuan Shao's power?" Ma Teng scolded impatiently. In fact, he also knew that he and Cao Cao had been different for a long time, but neither side had ever said anything.
He and Han Sui have jointly dealt with Cao Cao several times, and this alone is doomed that they cannot reconcile.
"Father, Cao Cao's intention of sending an envoy to Liangzhou at this time is unpredictable. We finally have an advantage, forcing Han Sui to fight in this Wuwei. If we miss this opportunity, it will be hard to say in the future."
Ma Xiu, who was beside him, also got up. This time they borrowed food and fodder from Jingzhou and did not have to worry about food and fodder in a short time. It was precisely this that forced Han Sui to fight with them. After all, Han Sui did not have much food and fodder in his hand. After a long time, Han Sui's army would definitely not be able to supply food and fodder.
"Yes, if Cao Cao subsidizes Han Sui's grain and grass, it will be troublesome." Ma Tie is also worried.
"Don't worry about this. Cao Cao's grain and herbs are scarce. How can he lend Han Sui's grain and fodder? Even if Cao Cao's power increases greatly, he may not be able to find food and fodder. After all, Yuan Shao's army's food and fodder were burned by him. Just as several people were worried, Ma Dai suddenly said.
Ma Teng was stunned and looked at Ma Dai in surprise. His nephew could see clearly, but in order to maintain the balance of Liangzhou, Cao Cao could really lend some food and fodder to Han Sui. After all, Yuan Shao's power is famous for his wealth.
"Lord, an envoy from Jingzhou came to see you." Just as several people were worried, a soldier quickly walked in.
"Jingzhou?" Ma Teng was stunned, and the others on the hall were also stunned. Why did Jingzhou suddenly send a messenger to Liangzhou at this time?
Ma Teng's eyes flashed, and after a moment, he laughed: "Haha, Jingzhou messenger, just in time. The message is to open the gate to welcome the envoy from Jingzhou to enter the city.
"No."
"You can meet me when you wait." Ma Teng took another look at the people above the hall, and then stepped out of the hall.
"Does my father want to use the power of Jingzhou to let Cao Cao avoid the mouse?" Ma Chao behind him quickly followed up and asked in surprise.
"Yes, although Cao Cao is strong, Jingzhou is also not weak. Cao Cao just defeated Yuan Shao and didn't have time to destroy Yuan Shao. How could he be the enemy of Jingzhou at this time?
Fa Zheng outside the city gate looked at Ma Teng and several people who greeted him in consters. First, he was stunned, and then he smiled softly. Cao Cao did not hide the fact that Cao sent an envoy to Liangzhou, and he had already received the news. This Ma Teng wanted to use the power of Jingzhou, but he didn't know that it was exactly what he wanted.
"Haha, the messenger has worked hard all the way." Ma Teng arched his hand and smiled.
"There and there, General Lao went out to greet him in person and was deeply frightened." Fa Zheng arched his hand, but his face was calm and there was no fear at all.
Ma Teng didn't want to pull Fa Zheng and walked to the city, and his attitude was extremely intimate.
"The messenger is resting in the city now. Let's talk about it tomorrow if there is anything. I'm very grateful to Liangzhou for borrowing the food." Ma Teng said with a smile.
"Ha ha, it's up to you. I'll discuss it tomorrow if it's not too late." Fa Zheng smiled in his heart. Ma Teng was deliberately made for Han Sui. He didn't have to refuse. He also wanted to take this opportunity to muddy the water of Liangzhou.
Ma Teng personally sent Fa Zheng and others to the post hall before leaving. The whole Xuanwei City also knew the arrival of Fazheng at this time. At this time, Jingzhou sent an envoy to Liangzhou, which was really thought-provoking.
"What, Jingzhou sent an envoy to Xuanwei?" Han Sui, who was rushing to Xuanwei City, immediately stood up and exclaimed.
He was at a disadvantage in this battle. If Jingzhou intervenes again, his situation will be more dangerous.
"Dat, this Jingzhou Liu Qi really deserves to die. I don't have any grudge against him. He is my enemy everywhere. It really deserves to die." Han Sui scolded angrily.
"Lord, in my opinion, I'm afraid that Ma Teng has formed an alliance with Jingzhou. Jingzhou has just annexed Yizhou with huge power. Once you support Ma Teng, it will be extremely unfavorable to us?" Cheng Yin, a general under Han Sui's command, was a little worried.
"Yes, my lord, it was this lord who lent Ma Teng grain and fodder, which greatly increased Ma Teng's strength. This time, he sent an envoy to Liangzhou to help Ma Teng." After Cheng Yin finished speaking, another person stood up and said, it was Li Kan.
Han Sui's face was extremely gloomy at this time. He looked at the two people in front of him, who were two of the eight generals under his command and also his cronies.
"What do you think we should do now?" Han Sui looked at the two people.
"Lord, isn't Cao Cao's messenger in the city? They came here to stop the war between the lord and Ma Teng. Jingzhou came here contrary to their intentions. I don't think they will sit back and watch Ma Teng unite with Jingzhou. As long as Cao Cao's forces can delay Jingzhou, there will be a chance for the situation to reverse. Cheng Yin arched his hand.
"Even if Cao Cao's power drags back Jingzhou, Ma Teng will not give up." Han Sui frowned and said.
"Don't worry, my lord. The reason why Ma Teng can persist for such a long time is completely because of the grain and fodder in Jingzhou. If the lord completely blocks the road to Jingzhou, the grain and fodder of Ma Teng's army will definitely be consumed, and Ma Teng will naturally retreat."
"Okay, you can invite Du Xi and Yang Xiu immediately. I hope these two people can have a way to deal with Jingzhou, otherwise we will only have to break the net with that Ma Tengyu." Han Sui said with hatred.
Although Ma Teng is very powerful, his power is not weak. If he really wants to fight, Ma Teng will not benefit him.
