King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 672
"Kill, kill, kill!" The crowd was also excited and roared a few times to boost their morale, but they suddenly felt dizzy. Of course, their stomachs were upset, which made them even more anxious about robbing Yueji's food. Energetic, but he doesn't know, this is also in Jia Xu's calculations, their steps are all under Jia Xu's control, it's as if Jia Xu is playing chess with himself, how to take the next step is totally up to him. It's all your own decision.

The Art of War says: Those who are good at using soldiers use the false as reality; those who are good at breaking the enemy.It is the best strategy to take the truth as falsehood; to lure it for profit, and to take it for chaos!Jia Xu calculated Ma Teng based on this. He expected that after Ma Teng's army was short of food, it would have been messed up. The Liang army may not be able to defeat the Qiang and Hu people, so they are all focused on attacking Bingzhou through this place quickly. As long as they capture cities one by one, the food crisis will be resolved at that time. When they reach the Han people, use Ma Teng's force It is not difficult to grab food and grass, but what if Liu He is prepared, crosses the Yellow River, and still has strong walls and clear fields?
How many famous generals in history have been trapped by food and grass, even Li Lin, because of food and grass, he has advanced or retreated many times because of food and grass. , Ma Teng also decided to replenish food and grass first, and attack Bingzhou later!

If Jia Xu wanted to destroy Ma Teng's [-] troops, he could not let Qiang Hu lose too much. Although Qiang Hu helped Liu He with a large army, Hu people are Hu people, and rebellious things often happen. That's why Sima Yi used the Yellow Turban Army Zhang Baiqi first, but he didn't use the Qianghu soldiers for a long time. You caused the Qianghu people to lose too much, and those uncivilized Huren are short-sighted and will not see the loss. After gaining benefits, he will definitely turn against Sima Yi, so Jia Xu's role is to prevent Yue Ji from fighting head-on with the Xiliang Army. Compared with the Xiliang Army, the Qiang Hu people will suffer eight hundred enemy injuries and one thousand self-injury. And the proportion is even bigger than this. At the beginning, Yue Ji wanted to fight Sima Yi, but Jia Xu didn't stop him, but wanted to let Yue Ji know a little bit more, so that he could handle things more easily. As a result, Yue Ji was defeated. , knowing that he is not an opponent of the Xiliang Army, it turned out that Jia Xu had to use other methods. Fortunately, the Hu people have always lived in no fixed place. In the society, people like Yueji, Jia Xu said that the barbarians who were in front of Ma Teng were relocated, but Yueji was forced to demolish them directly. Why do you say that Yueji delivered the news faster than Ma Teng marched? Ma Teng's army was not familiar with the terrain, and they couldn't find the hiding place of the Qianghu people. They still forgot that there is a very effective tool for transmitting messages on the grassland-the eagle!

Now that the foreshadowing in the early stage is ready, now Jia Xu naturally wants to lure Ma Teng out first. If so, what should be used as bait?What else can it be if it is not food?Not to mention that Ma Teng never saw through Jia Xu's plot, so what if he saw through?When the whole army is short of food, who doesn't have green eyes when they see the food?And Jia Xu's heart is to wipe out the Xiliang army. The Xiliang army is too powerful to stay. This is also Jia Xu's consistent strategy. He is merciless. Huokou, I really understand the truth that the wild fire can't burn out and the spring breeze blows again, and of course the name of the poisoner comes from it......

According to the information Ma Wan got from the scouts, Ma Teng's army set off quickly, and the closer they got to the location the scouts said, they found some traces of the Qianghu army on the bamboo slips, which made the Xiliang army even more excited. In front of my eyes, not long after, Ma Teng's army finally found the place where Yueji hid the grain and grass, and stopped the army behind him with a wave of his hand. Ma Teng reined in his mount, frowned and looked at the valley not far away, and said slowly: " It really is a good place to hide!" Then he raised his whip and asked, "Where is this?"

All the generals looked at each other, and among them was a general, Cheng Yin, who rode out on his horse, clasped his fists and said, "My lord, according to the captured barbarians, this is a trapped horse valley!"

"Trapped into the Valley of the Horse?" Ma Teng heard the words, his back felt cold for no reason, and he broke out in a cold sweat. Then he looked at Cheng Yin and asked in surprise, "Why do you call it that name?"

Cheng Yin was full of doubts.Seemingly puzzled by Ma Teng's meaning, he clasped his fists and said hesitantly, "I heard an allusion here!"

"Oh?" Ma Teng took a deep breath, stroked his chin and said with great interest, "Speak up!"

"Promise!" Cheng Yin clasped his fists in response, pointed behind the army and said, "Let's see, my lord, the terrain here is flat. Is it an excellent place to graze horses?"

Ma Teng turned his head when he heard this.After taking a closer look, he nodded and said, "Well, that's true, so what?"

"My lord, I don't know. This place used to be a place where war horses were raised in ancient times!" Cheng Yin glanced at the generals quite proudly.He said in a condensed voice: "After Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, the world was at peace. At that time, more than one million troops of Qin State disarmed and returned to the fields, and more than one hundred thousand war horses were freed to roam around. Afterwards, the Qin Dynasty was gradually defeated. Gaozu and the overlord Xiang Yu raised troops Rebelled against Qin. Then he dominated the world, arrived in Xianyang, and occupied the land of Qin. Due to many years of fighting, Xiang Yu's cavalry has been very few, so he hunted wild horses everywhere to fill the army, and here the war horses raised by Qin State... um... It should be a wild horse, and he immediately valued it! However, there is a horse king among this group of wild horses. Not only is he extremely handsome, but tens of thousands of horses here follow his orders. It lasted for a month. Among them, there were no less than ten times of hunting and hunting, but even so, the steed was still not captured. Afterwards, Xiang Yu's father, Fan Zeng, conspired to set fire to all the weeds and grains around the place. Going down to the valley, when the horses saw the flames, they panicked and rushed into the valley. Fan Zeng then blocked both ends of the valley, so the tens of thousands of horses here were all used by Xiang Yu! Thus, this valley It is called the Valley of Trapped Horses by the world!"

"Huh!" Heaved a sigh of relief, Ma Teng felt relieved, and said with a smile: "It turns out that this is the case, such a pass, tens of thousands of horses, but I can't see it, it's a pity!"

"Hey!" Liang Xing said with a smirk when he heard the words: "The horses that General Cheng mentioned are the horses raised by the King of Qin. Now, after four hundred years, how can there be any good horses left? If my lord wants to see you, you must wait for my big man to calm down." After the war, you can see it after imitating the former Qin Dynasty, but it's just these days..."

"Shut up!" Ma Teng scolded in a low voice, glared at Liang Xing, and said in a deep voice, "It's because of the chaos in the world today. We will be more self-motivated and punish the country's thieves. Give me back the peace and prosperity of the big man! Let's go, find a place to camp, and after the soldiers have had a full meal, they will knock down the trapped horse valley, and there will be more food for Yueji!"

The generals looked at each other.He didn't care much about what Ma Teng said, the Great Han Dynasty?The emperor was murdered, so where is the big man?The heroes are divided into separate regimes, each fighting for their own abilities.How many princes in the world are sincerely for the great man......

Seeing Ma Teng walking forward alone with a gloomy expression, the candidate shook his head at the generals, and then shouted: "Let's go!"

"Big man! Big man!" Ma Teng murmured and underestimated. Today's big man has no emperor above him and no loyal ministers below him. Liu Zhang in Liuzhou, how much is the royal family of the Liu family?Now that the Central Plains is fighting, Sun Quan, Liu Biao, Li Lin, and Liu He all want to dominate the Central Plains. For what? Is it really for the big man?snort!nonsense!Even if I am myself, I dare not say such high-sounding words of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. Back then, I cooperated with Dong Cheng and raided Xu Tian in order to kill Cao Cao. In the end, I was almost killed. But now that Cao Cao is dead, is the world really peaceful?No!It's getting more and more chaotic, making Ma Teng more and more lost...

Just as he was thinking about it, Ma Teng's heart trembled for no reason, and he looked around with surprise in his eyes...

"My lord?" Seeing Ma Teng's slightly panicked look, Ma Wan asked in surprise, "What's wrong, my lord?"

Ma Teng kept scanning the steep mountain wall of the valley in the distance with his eyes, and said eagerly in a low voice, "I don't know why, but my heart is beating so hard!"

"Ah?" Ma Wan was stunned, looked around and said with a smile: "Could it be that my lord is exhausted from the long journey?"

"No, no, no!" Ma Teng shook his head, and said in surprise, "It's not because I'm tired, it's not because I'm tired. I just remembered that this valley is called the Valley of Horses, and it's really not good for me. Could it be that the heavens warned me?"

"My lord! You are superstitious!"

"Go, go! Don't go to the neighborhood committee to attend lectures!"

"Hehe!" Ma Wan laughed, shook his head and said, "The last general also has the same surname as the lord, why is there nothing abnormal in his heart? General Yi Mo guessed that the lord may be too tired, and when the lord gets the food, the lord will have a rest. Whether it's Bingzhou or Qianghu, hey! If my Xiliang iron cavalry has sufficient food and grass, we can destroy them in an instant!"

"Yeah!" Ma Teng nodded and said, "We still need to be more careful! After getting the food and grass, we must take good care of it, and don't let Zhang Xiu attack it again!"

"Hmph!" Ma Wan sneered, pulled out half of the sword from his waist, and said coldly: "Don't worry, my lord, I will take this person's head and return it to my lord!"

Looking at Ma Wan who was very excited, Ma Teng nodded. Although this boy has no relatives with him, since he has the same surname, Ma Teng naturally has some intimacy, and said to Ma Wan, "The rest of the day Distribute the food to the soldiers and build up enough strength, after tonight, the brothers will no longer have to march hungry!"

"Yeah!" When it comes to hunger, Ma Wan has a good understanding, the expression on his face is very rich, he smiled bitterly, stood up, and walked towards the other brothers...
