Jagged hegemony of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 622

"Mancheng, quickly tell me how to use Liu Wei's power to offset Han Sui!"

When he got to the house, Cao Cao stared at Li Dian closely.

"My lord, Beidi County originally belonged to us, but it has always been in a no-care zone. To the east of Beidi County is Hexi County, and that Hexi County is Liu Wei's territory. After we defeated Ma Teng, we sent people to Pretending to be Qiang cavalry and attacking Hexi County, we don’t want to take Hexi County, just break into Hexi County and kill some people. In this way, Liu Wei will turn against Han Sui. If we don’t solve it properly, we will definitely fight. Profit from it!"

Li Dian narrowed his eyes and said to Cao Cao.

After Cao Cao listened, although he nodded, he thought to himself: "I'm afraid this matter is not so easy to handle. After all, Liu Wei is not stupid. If this matter is not handled properly, I am afraid that it will be self-defeating again. own feet."

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. The most urgent thing is to get Chang'an back. This horse has become a rootless duckweed. It is nothing to worry about. There is no food in Chang'an. The horse can't keep it for a few days, but this Han Sui The soldiers are already approaching the city of Chang'an, I'm afraid Han Sui will also set his sights on Chang'an!"

Cao Cao said worriedly.

Li Dian opened his mouth and replied: "My lord, don't worry. Since Ma Teng is at the end of his life, why don't you recruit Ma Teng and let Ma Teng and his soldiers be used by us!"

"Ma Teng is a man willing to live under others, you go and gather the generals and let them come to discuss matters!"

Cao Cao waved his hand, and then Li Dian summoned everyone to Cao Cao's barracks.

"My lord, the Xiliang army outside the pass has retreated, why don't you send troops to chase after it?"

Yu Jin stood up and asked.

"I brought you here for this purpose!"

Cao Cao said: "Ma Teng retreated because of the poor bandits. How can the poor bandits catch up? If you want to get Chang'an back, you need to think about it!"

"My lord is right. Although Ma Teng fled, it was because of a loss of foundation. I expect Ma Teng will return to Chang'an and rely on Chang'an to hold on!"

After Zhang Liao finished speaking to Cao Cao, Cao Cao replied, "There is very little food and grass in Chang'an City. Ma Teng won't be able to hold on for a few days. I'm afraid that Ma Teng will give in to Han Sui. Han Sui thought of his old feelings and accepted Ma Teng. The two joined hands together. Come deal with me!"

Cao Cao's Xi Zhicai said: "My lord, I am too worried. Although Ma Teng has a generous personality, it is Han Sui who betrayed Ma Teng. How could Ma Teng give in to Han Sui? According to Ma Teng's character, he would rather die than surrender. , if we want to take back Chang'an, we can't pursue it too hastily, let Ma Teng and Han Sui fight each other, and we will take advantage of their fighting to take back Chang'an in one fell swoop!"

"Zhongda, what do you think?"

Cao Cao suddenly remembered Sima Yi, so he asked.

"My lord, I think Master Xi is right! But it is impossible for Ma Teng to leave the city to fight Han Sui. He will definitely stick to Chang'an City, but there is not enough food and grass in the city, and Ma Teng can't hold it for a few days. Therefore, the lord should go to Chang'an first." It's better to be under the city, when the food and grass in the city are exhausted and the Xiliang army is in chaos, we will enter Chang'an and take Chang'an before Han Sui!"

After Sima Yi finished speaking, he retreated to his position and closed his eyes.

It's not that Sima Yi likes to close his eyes, it's because he has the eagle's eyes on the wolf, his eyes shine when he is thinking, like a falcon seeing its prey, so Sima Yi will always close his eyes when he is thinking. head.

"My lord, what Zhong Da said is justified, we should move our troops outside Chang'an City first, and then make other plans!"

Xi Zhicai also opened his mouth to persuade Cao Cao.

"Okay, leave Le Jin with [-] troops to handle Hangu Pass, and the rest will lead the army to Chang'an City with me!"

Cao Cao put on his horses and led an army of 15 to the outside of Chang'an after a night of rapid march.

At the same time, Ma Teng was sighing in Chang'an City.

"My lord, Han Sui called out at Ximen, please go and answer!"

A Xiliang Army soldier said to Ma Teng.

"He still has the face to talk to me?"

Ma Teng stood up with a gloomy face, but he still walked out of the mansion and walked towards the west gate of Chang'an.

After arriving at the top of the city, Ma Teng saw that Han Sui had brought eight of his generals not far outside the city, and when Han Sui saw Ma Teng appearing on the top of the city, he said, "Brother Shoucheng, don't come here without any harm! "

When Ma Teng saw Han Sui at this moment, he wished he could cut him in half with a knife, so he shouted, "Han Wenyue, I treat you like a brother, but you betrayed me, are you worthy of me?"

Facing Ma Teng's accusation, Han Sui said indifferently, "You treat me like a brother? You left me in the bitter cold of Jincheng, but you were happy in Tianshui. At that time, did you ever treat me as a Brother? Now that you are besieged here, you think of brotherhood? Ma Teng, your ruthlessness does not mean that I am innocent. As long as you are willing to surrender your military power, open the city gate and surrender, I promise that in the past, you and I were once brothers. For the sake of the field, I can spare your life!"

"You! You fart! Han Wenyue, even if I die on the battlefield, I will never bow to you, a villain! You bastard, sooner or later, I will take your dog's life!"

After Ma Teng pointed at Han Sui and finished cursing, he turned around and wanted to walk into the city.

"Father, why don't we ask Liu Wei for help and let him send troops to rescue him!"

Back in the city, Ma Chao spoke to Ma Teng.

"Even if they strike, what's the point? Tianshui has been lost, and we are homeless!"

Ma Teng let out the pent-up anger just now, and now, like a deflated ball, he sat on the stool and stared straight at the saber in front of him.

"Father, let's go and join Liu Wei. Liu Wei will definitely accept us. It won't be too late for us to use Liu Wei's power to take revenge!"

Ma Tie suggested to Ma Teng.

"Well, if something happens to Chang'an City, then you all go to Liu Wei!"

Ma Teng also spoke.

Ma Dai is a careful person, and after hearing Ma Teng's implication, he asked, "Uncle means to let us go to Liu Wei, but what about you, Uncle?"

"Me? I don't need you to control me!"

Ma Teng came to Ma Chao's side, patted Ma Chao on the shoulder, and said, "Meng Qi, you brothers are the oldest and most aggressive, but after you are under Liu Wei's command, put away your rebellious temperament." , take good care of Yunlu and the others for me!"

"Father, the child will not leave! I will live and die with my father here!"

With tears in his eyes, Ma Chao knelt down at Ma Teng's feet.

Ma Teng brought up Ma Chao, and said, "Don't be self-willed. There is not much food left in the city. Tonight, you will bring the dragoons and ten thousand elite soldiers to fight out from the north gate and go to Hebei to join Liu Wei." Bar!"

After saying that, Ma Teng drove them all out, leaving him alone in the house.
