Small Landlords of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 50 066. Drawings Stolen
After the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao sent his son Yuan Shang to join forces with Ma Teng and Han Sui, and Ma Teng pretended to agree to Yuan Shang.

Later, Ma Dai and Ma Yunlu came back from the south to transport grain, and the Ma family no longer had to be restrained by grain and grass, and began to gradually encroach on the ten tribes.

Except for Han Sui who was at odds with the Ma family, five of the top ten Xiliang warlords were annexed by the Ma family, and Han Sui and other tribes also approached the Southern Huns.

Ma Yunlu and Ma Dai have repeatedly proposed to form an alliance with Wang Hao, so that the Ma family can open up the Sili Hanoi channel, so that the Ma family can communicate with Wang Hao of Jingzhou,

However, Ma Teng did not agree to this matter, and even Ma Chao strongly opposed it, saying that Wang Hao was an ambitious wolf with a huge appetite, and that he might be the next Dong Zhuo.

At the beginning of winter, the southern Huns went south to hunt autumn grass due to insufficient food and grass. Cao Cao sent Zhong Yao, Yuan Shao asked Yuan Shang to send troops to fight Guo Yuan, the prefect of Hedong, and Nan Shanyu of the Xiongnu in Pingyang.
Under the persuasion of Cao Cao's envoys Zhang Ji, Fu Gan and others, Ma Teng decided to help Cao Jun, and sent his son Ma Chao to lead more than ten thousand people to help Zhong Yao, defeating Guo Yuanjun. Guo Yuan.

Cao Cao worshiped Ma Teng as his general to conquer the south, and Han Sui as his general to conquer the west. They both opened their mansions. Cao Mengde was very good at balancing.

Not only Ma Teng was awarded, but also Han Sui was awarded. One day with Han Sui, the Ma family would not be able to unify Xiliang, and they would not even think about leaving Xiliang to join the struggle for hegemony.

Ma Teng is from Xiliang, a descendant of General Fubo Ma Yuan, but his mother is a sick girl, and Han Sui has always looked down on Ma Teng because of his voice,

Because after the award, both of them will open their houses, and there are only a few tribal warlords in Xiliang. Because of the disagreement between the two, Han Sui killed Ma Teng's wife, and a war broke out between the two, but they still agreed externally. .

Cao Cao sent Zhong Yao and Wei Duan to persuade him to make peace, promoted Ma Teng to the former general, changed his village to Huaili, and made him the Marquis of Huaili.

Zhang Ji persuaded Ma Teng to give up the army and become an official in the court. Ma Teng hesitated for a while, but under pressure, he finally agreed and came to Yecheng.

Cao Cao appointed Ma Teng as a Weiwei, and named his son Ma Chao as a partial general to lead the troops instead of Ma Teng, and stationed troops in Jiuquan, Xiliang. The family members, Pang De and other generals moved to Yecheng.

Not to mention that after the Ma family got the food from Wang Hao, not only did they not form an alliance, but they also joined Cao Mengde's command.
Even Liu Bei from Hanzhong was eyeing Xiliang. After Liu Bei entered Hanzhong, he was not only assisted by Zhuge Liang, but also met his second counselor, Fa Xiaozhi and Fa Zheng.

This person's strategy can stand shoulder to shoulder with Zhuge Liang, whether he is marching or fighting or assisting in internal affairs, he is a first-class elite.
Moreover, Zhang Song, Fa Xiaozhi's good friend, is also Liu Zhang's farewell driver in Yizhou. With Zhang Song interceding for Liu Bei, Liu Bei quickly gained the trust of Liu Zhang in Yizhou.

Everyone knows Cao Mengde's heart as a tiger and a wolf. After Liu Yan died, Liu Zhang inherited Yizhou animal husbandry. He was even less courageous than Liu Yan.

It should be said that there were many clansmen of the Han family in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but all of them were conservative generations, and some of them were muddy and could not stick to the walls.

Liu Bei, Liu Biao, Liu Yan, Liu Zhang, and Liu Dai, the clansmen of the Han Dynasty who could have restored the Han Dynasty, were all wiped out in the wheel of history.

There used to be five buckets of rice Zhang Lu guarding the gate in Yizhou, and now there is Liu Bei guarding the gate. Liu Zhang listened to Liu Bei's words and decided to cut off contact with Wang Hao. After Liu Bei stood his ground, he turned his attention to Xiliang.

"Is my brother okay..."

After Wang Hao returned to Jiangxia County, he went straight to the government office. After Tai Shici left Jiangxia, the responsibility of guarding Jiangxia fell to Deng Liang and Hu Che'er.

Three days after Tai Shici left, Sun Shangxiang suddenly disappeared strangely, and everyone was naturally anxious.

Just when everyone searched for her for a few days and couldn't see her, she ran back by herself, and everyone didn't take it to heart, but Zhao Feng noticed that Sun Shangxiang was strange.

It turned out that Sun Shangxiang came back this time to steal the blueprints. Zhao Feng discovered that several of Sun Shangxiang's maids were spies.
Their goal is keel shipbuilding technology. The warship Wang Hao used to crusade against Liu Biao this time exceeded the previous knowledge of the Sun family.

Zhao Feng found out that Sun Shangxiang's maid was stealing blueprints, and was stabbed by the maid. Sun Shangxiang didn't know all this at all. Before she left Jiangxia, she received a secret letter from Sun Quan.

Sun Quan didn't say to let her steal the blueprints, but said that Wang Hao and Liu Biao were at war, and Cao Mengde sent his army south again. He was worried that Sun Shangxiang would be in danger in Jingzhou, so he brought her more than ten maids, all of whom were dead soldiers trained by the Sun family. .

Sun Shangxiang did not doubt that he had it, so he readily accepted it. After Zhao Feng was assassinated, Sun Shangxiang was also imprisoned by Hu Cheer, and Xi Zhicai rushed to Jiangxia from Changsha County to handle the matter in place of Gan Ning, the prefect of Jiangxia.

"Zhao Feng's injury has been stabilized, but the blueprint has been stolen by the Sun family. I fear that the Jiangdong Sun family will harm the lord.
"Now that Cao Mengde is going south, the hearts of the people in the four counties of Nanjing are not stable, and Liu Zhang in Yizhou has turned to Liu Bei. Even the Ma family in Xiliang also intends to join Cao Mengde.
If the Jiangdong Sun Clan attacks the lord again, we will be surrounded by enemies at that time, and the 20 troops under the lord's command alone are not enough to defend such a large foundation..."

What Xi Zhicai said was not unreasonable. Now the whole world, except Yuan Shao in Hebei, could not go south to attack Wang Hao, and the princes from all walks of life might raise troops to attack Wang Hao.

"It seems that I am too merciful. War is cruel. They all think that Wang Hao's food is so easy to get..."

Wang Hao has good food, but he is not really a fool with a lot of money, but he does not want the people in the world to suffer from the war, but also to starve to death on the street, so he does his best to hope that the world will not be here. There are people who starve to death.

The experience of going north to Youzhou back then is still vivid in his memory. The scene of changing his son to eat often gave him nightmares, but some people just think that Wang Hao is a fool with a lot of money.

If Ma Teng can form an alliance with Wang Hao, Wang Hao doesn't mind giving him more food and horses, as long as he can strangle Hanzhong's neck,
Liu Bei and Liu Zhang can't come out and dance, Cao Mengde alone can't do anything to him Wang Hao, even if the Jiangdong Sun family is added, so what,

Wang Hao moved his troops to Yuzhang and other places, and Xiliang restrained Cao Mengde, Sili and other places, and Cao Mengde was also unable to go south.

"Oops, Feng Xiao and the others are in danger..."

Wang Hao finally realized when he thought of this. Since Sun Quan had people steal the keel shipbuilding blueprints, he must have wanted to fall out with Wang Hao.
When Wang Hao and Sun Ce formed an alliance, neither Zhou Yu nor Lu Su showed up. Now that the keel shipbuilding is known to Sun, they must know that Wang Hao is going to deal with them.

Then the counties in Yangzhou will be in danger. Dian Wei and Guo Jia don't know yet, but Wang Hao and Sun's face has already been torn apart.

If the Sun family sent troops from Danyang at this time, Wang Hao's territory in Lujiang County and Huainan would definitely be lost.

"My lord Xingba is willing to go to Panyang..."

As soon as Gan Ning heard that Dian Wei was in danger, he immediately called for a fight. Tai Shici stood up with a face of grief and indignation. He also knew that he had brought Sun Shangxiang back. Wang Hao might suspect that he had relieved him of his military power, but Tai Shici was still awake. Scalp stand up!
