Three Kingdoms New Malaysia Super League

Chapter 1295
The murder of Liu Xie became unimportant immediately before the fact that Zhang Song was coming to Xiangyang.This is not entirely because Ma Chao is so impulsive, it is indeed because of the initiation of a conspiracy, and most of the follow-up strategies are promoted one after another, creating unchangeable results layer by layer.

But Liu Xie was seriously ill. After Liu Xie lay down on the bed, there was not much movement.Coupled with the strict news blockade, the imperial prestige of the Han Dynasty is no longer the focus of the world's attention. Therefore, Ma Chao did not even receive the abuse from some stupid gentry groups.

Sometimes, Ma Chao even wondered if this was Liu Xie's own trick, besides trying to win Da Qiao's heart and defeating him in another battlefield, did he also want to see if the world still cared? His son of heaven?
However, the result may have disappointed him, but Ma Chao will not make trouble. In addition to arranging to increase the supervision of Liu Xie, he no longer cares about Liu Xie, and puts more energy on Zhang Song's coming to Xiangyang. over the event.

Two days later, Shadow finally sent the news that Zhang Song was indeed coming to Xiangyang.However, the banner was not that Liu Zhang came to find Liu Bei, a clan member of the Han family, to talk about the family life, but that he wanted to be an envoy from Yizhou to make a good relationship with the Ma family.Because Ma Chaoren was in Xiangyang, he did not go to Chang'an, but instead came to Xiangyang to pay homage.What's interesting is that those people in Xichuan knew that the emperor was in Xiangyang, but they didn't pretend to meet the emperor at all. These actions were obviously out of concern for Ma Chao's power.

Of course, Ma Chao would not believe such a boring banner.Although the Ma family and Xi Chuan have trade relations, they are just a general cooperative relationship, neither close nor enmity.Moreover, it is not a matter of a day or two for the Ma family to stand up in the six states. When Liu Zhang was canonized as King Yong, he did not see Liu Zhang revealing the intention of friendship. Why did he come here again at this time?

Fortunately, the shadows of the Ma family are not vegetarians. Two days later, another group of shadows lurking in Jian'an County sent a shocking news, and this news completely made Ma Chao vaguely guess the intentions of the Xichuan gang. :
Meng Huo, the barbarian king, has turned against him!

At this time, Meng Huo was only a young man in his early twenties, but it was unexpected that it was this young man in his early twenties who stirred up the situation in the southwest of Dahan.

When the land of the Central Plains was turbulent, the Nanman side was not peaceful either.The Nanman area was originally a wild land with deep mountains, old forests, and many tribes who did not communicate with each other. The Yi people were even more vulgar and ignorant. The whole Nanman was a mess until Meng Huo appeared.

Meng Huo was born in a powerful family, possessed courage, and even loved to fight fiercely. He made a name for himself among the Nanmans at a young age. At the age of 17, he went deeper into the Yi tribe and competed with various cave masters and village kings. In three years, he used martial arts to either convince the crowd, or to worship, and brought the cave master, King Mulu, Wutugu, Jinhuan Sanjie, etc. The leaders of the barbarians had a very close friendship. After returning, Meng Huo's reputation was at the peak of the sky, and he was in awe of both Yi and Han tribesmen.

It is actually not a big problem for Nanman to have Meng Huo here. Even though Meng Huo has great ambitions, he can only bow his head and bow his head in the face of 20 soldiers in Yizhou.But the problem was that in Yizhou this year, there was also a rebellion, which gave Meng Huo, an ambitious man, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

When Liu Yan, the father of Liu Zhang, the lord of Yizhou, entered Shu, because they were outsiders, he was afraid that he would not be able to pinch the locals in Yizhou, so he recruited refugees who had flowed into Yizhou from Nanyang and other places to form an army. Known as "Dongzhou soldiers".As the barrel of his gun to rule Yizhou, Liu Yan can be regarded as a talent. At least in Yizhou, with such a mob Dongzhou soldier who has not received much formal training, he has worked hard for a long time, and finally he was able to fight in Yizhou. Yizhou has gained a firm foothold.

However, after Liu Zhang succeeded his father as the shepherd of Yizhou, because of his cowardly character, he was generous and lacked prestige. These Dongzhou soldiers who had no roots in Yizhou naturally used their power to bully the local indigenous residents. Liu Zhang had no way to restrain these arrogant and arrogant Chong's love made the conflict between the wealthy families in Yizhou and Liu Zhang's ruling group more and more intense.

Zhao Wei was a big official in Yizhou. He resented Liu Zhang's rule because the interests of Yizhou people and aristocratic families were harmed, so he rebelled. Counties, Guanghan, Qianwei and other places responded one after another and drove their slaves and tenants to participate in Zhao Wei's rebellion. Zhao Wei had tens of thousands of troops in a short period of time, and he became an enemy of Liu Zhang, and his power was very strong.

At the beginning of this year, Zhao Wei even led the army to besiege Chengdu, and Liu Zhang's Dongzhou soldiers fought bravely for fear of being punished if they failed.Zhao Wei was defeated, so he had to retreat to Jiangzhou and was killed by the pursuers. Afterwards, the rich and powerful families in Yizhou lost their heads and took away their wealth, and the whole Yizhou has been in an atmosphere of white terror. Among the ten pavilions of the rich and powerful families in Yizhou, five pavilions may have been lost.

After this battle, there were no fewer than dozens of powerful families in central Shu who were implicated. Liu Zhang's series of revenge on the nobles and common people in central Shu made him even more unpopular. People pricked them with needles and pumped them with shoe soles.

And Liu Zhang's self-disruption has nothing to do with Meng Huo.But people from the aristocratic families in central Shu didn't think so. After the seeds of hatred germinated, they suddenly turned their attention to the southern barbarian land, and suddenly realized that a powerful army had emerged in the barren land where only insects and beasts lived. Barbarian armed.Those with a heart began to collude with Meng Huo gradually, planning to overthrow Liu Zhang.And Meng Huo also wanted to break out of this troubled world, and the two hit it off.After three months of plotting, a rebellion broke out like wildfire!

This rebellion is not just a rebellion of powerful nobles and private soldiers like Zhao Wei before, but a life-and-death contest between Han and barbarians.At first, those powerful gentry only wanted to take advantage of Meng Huo's courage, but he never imagined that in just a few months, the four counties of Jianning, Yongchang, Cang, and Yuexi all fell into Meng Huo's hands, and those barbarians wantonly burned the land of the Han people. Killing and looting put the entire Yizhou into an unprecedented bloody storm!
At this time, there was no Zhuge Liang in Yizhou, and the scale of the rebellion was far greater than that in history.Liu Zhang urgently mobilized Wu Yi, Zhang Ren, Yan Yan and other elite soldiers and generals to display on the front lines of Hanjia, Qianwei, and Zhu Ti to resist the barbarian attack.At this time, the counselors in Sichuan also came up with suggestions, saying that the rebellion was an act of destroying Yizhou. If foreign aid was not invited to help, the great Yizhou would be in danger of dying!
As a result, Zhang Song was ordered in the face of danger, and brought hundreds of thousands of people from all over Yizhou to make friends with the Ma family.

The ins and outs of the matter still had some twists and turns, but the more this happened, the more suspicious Ma Chao became: "Since Yizhou is already in danger, Zhang Song is also here to ask for reinforcements. Why do we have to cover up this trip? What is the result?" The banner of the Ma family? Isn't he afraid that if something goes wrong, the whole of Yizhou will fall into the hands of Meng Huo?"

"It's in vain for you to be smart all your life, why are you so whimsical today?" The person who said these words was none other than Pang Tong.

Now that Ma Chao doesn't have any counselors around him, when he encounters such a problem suddenly, he naturally has to find someone to discuss it.What's more, these days, Pang Tong and Liu Bei are also very close, and Ma Chao also needs to find out how far the two of them have progressed during this period of time.

"Yizhou is different from the Central Plains. The mountains and rivers there are treacherous and winding. Although there are cities and buildings, the land is vast and sparsely populated. Although the barbarians value death and despise life, they are fierce and brave, but they seem to be menacing, but the cities they go down get their military supplies and supplies. There are very few, and the barbarians regard Meng Huo as king, but they don't follow the command, they fight on their own, and they are scattered. The four counties in trouble have far exceeded their capabilities, and are limited by many factors such as their combat power, military resources, and vision. It's really hard for the inside and outside. Zhang Song came here this time, it seems that he came here to ask for reinforcements, but in fact, don't forget, he is also a powerful man in Sichuan..."

After these words, Ma Chao's heart was like a mirror, and he looked at Pang Tongtong, and couldn't help feeling: no matter where, war always comes with conspiracy.The so-called battle of life and death in Yizhou is probably a rumor deliberately fabricated by people with good intentions in Yizhou, which was heard by Shadow and spread here.And the real purpose of those powerful gentry in Yizhou is to pour another bucket of oil on Meng Huo's wildfire, and completely burn Liu Zhang in Yizhou to death!

That is to say, although Zhang Song's mission this time is different from that in history, the reason is different, the banner is different, and the object he is looking for is also different.But in essence, it is exactly the same.And if this was the case, then Ma Chao couldn't hold back the smile at the corner of his mouth: That guy Cao Cao thinks Zhang Song is ugly, so after he gets used to seeing Pang Tong, isn't he immune to it?

Pang Tong had just found some pride in Ma Chao, but at this moment, looking at Ma Chao's eerie smile, he suddenly felt chilly all over, as if he had lost something again, so he quickly moved his seat and covered himself with his sleeve robe unnaturally. to cover my face...
