Chapter 110
"The first plan, although the name is justified, is that the results of the battle are not clear. Once you lose, you may hurt your muscles and bones. Secondly, your majesty will be imprisoned by Li Que and Guo Si. If he pretends to be the name of the emperor, the lord will not The third plan is that Cao Cao had previously issued an order to punish the Yellow Turbans and defeated Dong Zhuo. He was famous all over the world. Therefore, I advise my lord to select the second volume, so it is okay. First, Han Sui lived in Jiuyuan, and he was often called Jiuqu. He was notorious and broke his trust in the world. My lord, no one else will gossip about it.”

Xin Zhao chuckled, as he really thought so, he agreed and asked for details.

Liaokong said again: "If you want to do the second plan, my lord should wait for the opportunity."

'How? '

"If Ma Teng of Xiliang and Han Sui of Jiuyuan led troops to raise the banner as 'Jiyi Army, Diligent to the Royal Family', teachers of justice. Perhaps Li Quehui would use the name of the Son of Heaven to dispatch other princes to block them, and then the lord can send troops."

"That's great, just wait for the news."

……

Let’s say Ma Teng from Xiliang and Han Sui from Jiuyuan were sworn brothers, and they raised more than [-] soldiers and came to Chang’an. As early as when they sent troops, Ma Teng secretly contacted Ma Yu, the court servant, and advised the doctor Zhong Zhao and Zuo Zhonglang took Liu Fan as the internal response, and conspired with Li Que,

The three of Ma Yu are loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty. They secretly informed Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty immediately wrote a book secretly, naming Ma Teng as General Zhengxi, and Han Sui as General Zhenxi. thief.

When Li Que, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou heard that Ma Teng had raised his troops, they hurriedly discussed countermeasures together.

Inside the hall, Jia Xu, a counselor, bowed and stood by the side of the hall, admonishing him: "If the enemy army comes from afar, they only need deep ditches and high fortifications, and they can be resisted if they stick to it. If they run out of food and grass in the daytime, they will surely retreat without fighting. Then lead the troops to pursue them, and they will definitely win with fire."

Li Que and others listened very well. Just when Li Que was about to make a decision, Jia Xu said again: "I'm afraid that many old officials in the city have their own agendas and have colluded with Ma Teng and Han Sui a long time ago. We must be on guard."

Under the tent, Li Meng and Wang Fang put their hands together and went out, saying: "This is not a good plan. I would like to use tens of thousands of elite soldiers to immediately kill Ma Teng and Han Sui's heads and offer them to my subordinates."

Jia Xu said: "If we fight today, we will definitely lose."

Li Meng and Wang Fang were furious, and Wang Fang even said: "If we are defeated, you should present your head to see me! If I can win, you will also take the head with me!"

Jia Xu laughed, noncommittal, turned to Li Que and Guo Si and said, "Kuang Mountain, two hundred miles west of Chang'an, is so steep that Generals Zhang and Fan can garrison troops to be assassinated, and stick to it according to the danger; , Wang Fang led his own troops, that's okay."

After deliberation by Li Que and Guo Si, they decided to act according to Jia Xu's plan, order [-] troops, and hand them over to Li Meng and Wang Fang.

The two of them left happily, and went to the village five hundred miles away from Chang'an.

Xiliang soldiers and horses came, Li Meng and Wang Fang led the army to kill without waiting for the opponent to fall into the village.The scouts under Ma Teng's command heard that Li Meng and Wang Fang were leading troops to kill them, so they blew the drums, and within half an hour, the Xiliang soldiers under his command took up their positions.

Ma Teng and Han Sui came out together, Ma Teng pointed at Li Meng and Wang Fang and cursed, "Who will capture the traitors against the country!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a young general rushed out from behind him. His face was like a jade crown, his eyes were like shooting stars, his body was like a tiger, his belly was like a wolf's waist, he was holding a long spear, and he sat astride a military horse, rushing straight towards the opponent's formation.

Wang Fang snorted coldly and said with a big laugh: "Ma Teng has no generals, so send a yellow-haired boy to die?"

As he said that, he slapped his horse to meet him at a high speed. The two fought, and within a few seconds, the young general stabbed him under the horse!
"I am Ma Mengqi from Xiliang, who will come to fight!" The young general held the spear slantedly with one hand, leaning halfway on his body, his tiger eyes glared at the opponent, and the aura of contempt for the world burst out.

Ma Chao, the eldest son of Ma Teng, named Mengqi, was seventeen years old and invincible. When he was ten years old, he fought with the barbarians despite his father's horse. At the age of 12, he killed three barbarians and captured a war horse. At the age of 15, , with 300 elite soldiers, broke the barracks of [-] Hu soldiers, and became famous!
Seeing that Wang Fang died under the horse, Li Meng was furious, and rushed towards him on horseback, but Ma Chao snorted coldly, led the horse and turned around, Li Meng was furious!
Seeing Ma Chao's carelessness, Han Sui under the gate flag hastily shouted, "There is someone chasing him from behind!"

Ma Chao chuckled, as if he didn't know it, Li Meng suddenly felt infinitely insulted, the louder the yelling, the closer it was, the imagination in Li Meng's hand must have blatantly poked at Ma Chao's back!

I saw Ma Chao waved his hand, and the tiger-headed golden gun suddenly shook the spear from Li Meng's hand. The horse turned its head, and the ape arm suddenly stretched out, and it turned out to capture Li Meng alive under his armpit. Han Suizhen was on the spot!
Ma Teng laughed, patted Han Sui on the shoulder and said, "Brother, you underestimate my son!" After speaking, he waved his hand and shouted, "If you don't kill now, when will you wait!"

Before the sound was over, Ma Teng took the lead and rushed out, and Han Sui came to his senses and hurriedly followed. More than [-] soldiers rushed out screaming, but seeing that Li Meng's army had no leader, they panicked and fled.Ma Teng and Han Sui led their troops to hide and kill all the way to the pass and Xiazhai!
As soon as the stockade was settled, Ma Teng waved his big hand and said, "Behead Li Meng's head to boost morale." '

Li Meng's head was beheaded, and Ma Teng hung it on the flag pillar of the village gate with his own hands. There was still blood in his head that was not dry, flowing down the pillar, leaving a trail of blood marks.

Li Que and Guo Si heard that Li Meng and Wang Fang were both beheaded by Ma Chao. Fang believed that Jia Xu had a foresight, and he would do what he said in the future, and he was obedient.

Now that the vanguard army has been defeated, Li Que had no choice but to order to guard the pass tightly, depending on how Ma Teng and Han Sui called for the battle, and they did not send troops.

Before two months had passed, Ma Teng and Han Sui's soldiers and horses ran out of food and grass, so Ma and Han discussed in their tents about withdrawing their troops.

At this time, the servants of Ma Yu's family had leaked the relationship between the head of the family and Liu Fan, Zhong Zhaowailian Ma Teng, and Han Sui for the city. Shocked as expected.

Li Que ordered that all the three families, old and young, beheaded in the downtown area regardless of women and children, and hung three heads in front of the door in response to Ma Teng hanging Li Meng's head.

Ma Teng and Han Sui saw that the money and food had been exhausted to the bottom, and the internal response was dead. If they wanted to attack the Xiongguan in Chang'an, it would not be possible in a short time, so they had to retreat.

Li Que and Guo Si immediately ordered Zhang Ji to lead his troops to pursue Ma Teng, while Fan Chou led his troops to pursue and kill Han Sui.

Han Sui could not resist Fan Chou and fled in defeat.

Ma Teng led the soldiers and horses to withdraw first, and his eldest son Ma Chao fought to the death in the rear. Zhang Ji fought with him for a while, but failed to escape, so he led his troops to camp and stopped pursuing.

Besides, Han Sui, who was killed in the first town of Fan Chou, ran away with his head in his arms, and chased him all the way until he reached the territory of Chen Cang. So ruthless, kill them all?"

Fan Chou also reined in his horse, cupped his hands, and said, "I dare not do anything with the command of the army."

Han Suidao said, "I came here for the sake of the country. Why do you persecute me so much?"

After hearing this, fan Chou sighed, turned his horse's head, and the guards returned to the stronghold, letting Han Sui go.

I just returned to the stockade, and I was sure there was an envoy from outside to see me.

Fan Chou wondered, could it be that the news was delivered so quickly?Forget it, I don't want to be a ruthless person, and let the elders in my hometown blame me for being ruthless.

Having made up his mind, Fan Chou went out to meet him in person, but saw a soldier whose armor was in the form of a soldier from Bingzhou.Fan Chou asked suspiciously, "Aren't you a soldier of Chang'an?"

"Your Majesty, Bingzhou Jinyang Shenbo, Wang De, is ordered by my lord to come and teach General Fan how to live."

"Bold! Are you begging to die?" Fan Chou was furious when he heard this, and cursed at Wang De.

Wang De shook his head and said: "My lord, General Fan values ​​love and righteousness. If he pursues Han Sui, he must consider his fellow countrymen and let him go. Li Que is more suspicious than Dong Zhuo. Does General Fan think that this is the case?" At that time, Li Que was able to make friends with the general?"

Fan Chou snorted coldly, and said: "You are really talking nonsense, you should go as soon as possible, otherwise your life will be lost!"

Wang De looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, shaking his head and said: "My lord has ordered the delivery. If the general wants to survive, he should make a quick decision and leave." After finishing speaking, Wang De strode out of the gate of the village and galloped away.

Besides, Li Bie, Li Que's nephew, was also in the tent. Seeing that Fan Chou had let Han Sui go on his own initiative, he was displeased. What Wang De said made him even more angry, and he reported the matter to his uncle Li Que.

Li Que was furious when he saw the letter, and immediately wanted to send troops to fight against Fan Chou. Jia Xu listened to it and hurriedly persuaded him: "At present, people's hearts are uncertain, and they are frequently fighting, and they are deeply self-destructive. Name, set up a banquet table to celebrate the achievements of the two generals Fan Chou and Zhang Ji, during the banquet you can capture Fan Chou and kill him, just like searching for an ear."

Guo Bang said: "If Fan Chou has rebelled, he will refuse to come. If the public comes, then his heart will be clear. Why kill him?" '

Li Que snorted coldly and said, "Fan Chou is from the same village as Han Sui. If you let him go today, how dare you report him not to join forces with Han Sui in the future? If you don't kill him today, you will cause future trouble."

"All I have to do is listen to the general." Guo Si knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and hurriedly cupped his hands, and at the same time, he was already deeply wary.

Li Que listened to Jia Xu's words and hosted a banquet for Zhang Ji and Fan Chou.The two happily went to the banquet.

When the wine was half drunk, the smile on Li Que's face suddenly turned ferocious, and he pointed to Fan Chou and said, "Why do you want to rebel with Han Sui?" '

Fan Chou was shocked, and before he could reply, several swordsmen came out from the curtain behind him, beheaded his head and dropped it on Zhuo Xia on the spot, Zhang Ji was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he hurriedly fell under the table.

Li Que smiled, helped him up and said, "Fan Chou wanted to rebel, so I killed him. You are my confidant. Why should you be frightened?" Guan Ling sent him back to Hongnong to guard.

Let's say that Li Que and Guo Si defeated Xiliang's 10,000+ army, and their prestige was second to none for a while, and the surrounding princes were all trembling.

When Ma Teng and Han Sui retreated, Zhao Xin had already led his troops to Anding, only three hundred miles away from Chencang.Han Sui had already been defeated, Zhao Xin immediately led his troops out, forcing Han Sui to retreat.

Unexpectedly, Han Sui broke away from most of the troops and took a small road. Zhao Xin led [-] soldiers and horses, but did not see Han Sui and did not take action, so they had to return to Bingzhou.

After returning to Bingzhou, Liao Kong came to the study and asked to see Xin Zhao.

After entering the room and saluting, Liaokong said guiltily, "My lord, please take the blame. It's really my fault that I failed in this battle."

Zhao Xin laughed loudly, stood up, patted Kong's shoulder, and said: "What the master said is wrong, this is my decision. The master's natural and clever idea is just that I didn't follow it at the moment."

With that said, Zhao Xin smiled, patted Kong's shoulder, and said earnestly: "It wasn't until the time of war that we got the information of Huayue (Shangguan Qiu), Ma Teng was sealed as the General of the Conquest of the West, and Han Sui was the General of the Zhenxi. , is really the seal of the emperor, I can't send troops. As for rushing to rescue, I can take Jiuyuan down, but I really don't want to."

Liao Kong asked suspiciously, "Why didn't the lord not take it?"

Xin Zhao narrowed his eyes and said: "To be honest, I have to report to the official building that the remnants of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou will be dispatched."

"It's Qingzhou's upheaval, what does it have to do with Bingzhou?" Liao Kong became more and more confused.

Xin Zhao smiled, didn't say yes or no, didn't answer, changed the topic and said: "It's empty, there are a lot of government affairs here, and you should handle them with me."

Seeing that Xin Zhao didn't want to say more, Li Kong didn't ask any more questions, and assisted Xin Zhao to deal with it. Not to mention, with Kong's assistance, Xin Zhao's efficiency in handling government affairs has improved a lot, and Li Kong even met Xin Zhao. Numerous 'office' skills and techniques.

Let's say that Li Que and Guo Si defeated the Xiliang Army, and their power was even greater, and they looked up to themselves even more.Jia Xu repeatedly advised the two to appease the trustworthy, accept wise men, and employ heroes, but they turned a deaf ear to each other, and Jia Xu felt chilled.

One day, Li Que didn't know what medicine he had taken, so he hurriedly called Jia Xu and asked what to do now. Jia Xu told him what he had said before, but Li Que was meticulous in his execution.

Guo Bang also found it strange, so he asked Li Que why, but Li Que hesitated, and only mentioned it to Jia Xu. It turned out that Li Que had a dream. Death, only knows the way of flattery, has no real strategy, no real food bag, facing a strong enemy, Li Que is powerless to resist, so his temperament changes drastically.

Li Que acted according to Jia Xu's orders, and gradually there was business in the court, which seemed to restore the innocence of the court in the past.However, a few days before the good times, the remnants of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou reappeared, gathering hundreds of thousands of people with unknown leaders, plundering good people, attacking the government, and killing officers and soldiers without authorization.

At the invitation of Li Que, Taifu Zhu Jun recommended a person to co-administer the government, claiming that this person would destroy the gang of thieves. Li Que hurriedly asked who it was.

Zhu Jun said: "If you want to break the Shandong group of thieves, it should belong to Zilin and Mengde!"

As soon as the words were finished, Jia Xu said, "No way!" Everyone looked at him, waiting for the next sentence.

Jia Xu said: "In recent years, Zhao Xin has attacked Liu Yu and Zhang Yang one after another, and his power has already spread to You and Annexed the two places. He has enough soldiers and food. How can a mere Yellow Turban be an opponent?"

Hearing this, Li Que was puzzled and said, "Of course it's better to be sure. What's the meaning of the public words?"

Jia Xu narrowed his eyes and said: "Zhao Xin has been recuperating for half a year, but his ambition is gradually revealed. Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan are still fighting against him. If he takes advantage of the opportunity of the Yellow Turbans crusade to recruit prisoners of war and occupy Qingzhou, he will have a lot of potential. On the day when the dragon transforms into a dragon, it will definitely be due to the Qing emperor's righteousness and he will attack Chang'an. By then, Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan, and Cao Cao will be no match for him. This is a useless strategy and will drive the tiger away and swallow the wolf!"

Li Que thought about it, and it was true, so he said: "In the public opinion, who should be in this position?"

Jia Xu smiled, looked at Zhu Jun and said, "My lord servant has long said that it should be Zilin and Mengde. Now Zilin can't do it, so I choose Mengde." '
