Demon of the Three Kingdoms

"Xiliang?" Cao Cao touched his beard, glanced at Guo Jia, and began to weigh in his heart. Xiliang is indeed a piece of fat. Army, army horses must not be a problem.

"My lord, Xiliang is rich in fine horses. If our army wins Xiliang, it will surely strengthen our army's strength and fight against Yuan Xi in Hebei." Xun You also bowed his hands, echoing Guo Jia, and Xun You also agreed to attack Xiliang.

"Okay, since both Fengxiao and Gongda suggested attacking Xiliang, then our army will concentrate our forces and march westward, and strive to capture Liangzhou before Yuan Xi returns to the army!" Cao Cao slapped the table and made a decision.

"The subordinates must assist the lord to defeat the Xiliang army!"

"Okay, Fengxiao, Gongda, Bufan, what good strategy do you have for regaining Liangzhou?"

"Father Zhong, my son thought that Han Sui was born as a bandit in the Xiliang army and had dominated one side for a long time. It might be difficult to subdue Han Sui. My son thought Han Sui should be killed, but after Ma Teng was General Fubo Ma Yuan, our army You can try to persuade Ma Teng to surrender." Lu Rui put forward his own views to Cao Cao based on his understanding of the two.

"Bufan mean to use the distance meter?"

"Yes, Father Zhong!"

"What do Feng Xiao and Gong Da think?"

"My lord, according to the available information, this plan is feasible, Jia seconded it!"

"Yu also seconded!"

"Okay! Fengxiao, you will implement this plan, and Bufan and Gongda will prepare to march into Xiliang."

"promise!"

In the barracks of the Xiliang Army in Liangyao Mountain, Ma Chao was rectifying his troops.After receiving Yuan Xi's letter, Ma Teng and Han Sui decided to attack Cao Cao.Cooperate with the actions of other princes.

"Major General. There is a single-minded young scribe outside the camp asking to see him. He says he is an old friend of the General!"

"Oh? Yixin, Ma Yixin?"

"Hurry up and bring Yixin to our military tent to meet you."

"promise!"

"I have seen brother Meng Qi with all my heart!"

"Brother Yixin is too polite, please hurry up."

"Brother Meng Qi came to Yongzhou with General Ma and set foot in the Central Plains. How does it feel?" Sitting on Ma Chao's seat, Yi Xin took a sip of tea with a smile.

"The Central Plains has a vast land and rich resources, much richer than my Xiliang, which is really an eye-opener for Chao Chao."

"My little brother soon knew that brother Meng Qi had great ambitions. This attack on Cao Jun is an opportunity for brother Meng Qi to show his ambition."

"Borrowing brother Yixin's auspicious words, if my Xiliang army can capture the Central Plains, Chao will definitely entertain Brother Yixin in the Central Plains!"

"Thank you, Brother Meng Qi."

"Brother Yixin, you are being polite. If you hadn't found out the conspiracy of someone to provoke father and uncle Han, I'm afraid my Ma family and Han family would fight each other, and Cao Cao's insidious villain would succeed." Ma Chao took a sip of his wine and smiled. looking at him wholeheartedly.

"Brother Meng Qi is too polite. Cao Cao is treacherous and cunning. He coerced the emperor to make the princes, and he is a lowly scholar. I just don't like Cao Cao's actions. I can only show off my cleverness."

"Brother Yixin's heart is higher than the sky. He has great ambitions, how can he remain unknown for a lifetime? If Brother Yixin doesn't dislike him, there is still a general in Chao here?"

"Brother Meng Qi is being polite. He is used to being idle and likes to live a free life. Brother Meng Qi wholeheartedly accepts his kindness."

"Since that's the case, I won't force Brother Yixin."

"By the way, brother Yixin came to our barracks, what's the matter?"

"I was traveling around a few days ago, and I heard that Yuan Xi sent letters to the princes of all walks of life to attack Cao Cao. I came here to see if Brother Meng Qi needs help."

"So that's the case, Chaozheng has something important to ask Brother Yixin."

"Oh? Brother Meng Qi, please tell me."

"My Xiliang army has advanced to the vicinity of Liangyao Mountain, but Cao Cao's army is still huddled in the Chang'an area. Is there some conspiracy?" Ma Chao looked at it suspiciously.

"Brother Meng Qi worried too much. Cao Cao was short of troops, so he ordered Zhong Yao from Chang'an to guard Chang'an and wait for the right time."

"Waiting for an opportunity?"

"That's right, according to my opinion, Cao Cao will soon send a large army to encircle and suppress the Xiliang army."

"what!"

"Brother Meng Qi, except for the Xiliang Army, which is jointly commanded by General Ma Teng and General Han Sui, there are no other princes who are allies with different political orders. If I were Cao Cao's think tank, I would definitely advise Cao Cao to attack Xiliang military."

"Brother Yixin is right." Ma Chao was no fool, and quickly figured out the key point.

"Brother Yixin, if Cao Cao deals with our Xiliang army, then the strategy he uses is a tactic of alienation?" Ma Chao took a sip of mare's milk, played with the dagger, and glanced at Yixin with a smile.

"Brother Meng Qi is indeed wise and courageous, he admires him wholeheartedly, and he came here for this wholeheartedly."

"Brother Yixin means...?"

"Brother Meng Qi, if Cao Cao promises a high-ranking official to General Ma Teng, will General Ma Teng be tempted?"

"Brother Yixin, if this is the case, my father will definitely be tempted." Ma Chao knows Ma Teng's heart well. The Ma family is after General Fubo. After Ma Teng's generation has declined, he wants to marry a Qiang girl to consolidate the strength of the Ma family. , although Ma Teng's marriage is fairly harmonious, Ma Teng still has a thorn in his heart. He needs a chance to rectify his name and bring the Ma family back to glory. This is more important than anything else.

This is also the difference between Ma Chao and Ma Teng. Ma Chao has the blood of the Qiang people. He has lived among the Qiang people since he was a child. Apart from Han Sui, he is the number two figure among the Qiang people. With this foundation, Ma Chao naturally wants to do a lot of work and not belong to the so-called imperial court.

"My little brother is here to offer a plan for brother Meng Qi, so that brother Meng Qi can gain military and political power in Xiliang and fight Cao Cao."

"Oh? Super all ears."

"Brother Meng Qi, do you know how to stay close?"

"Brother Yixin don't want to test me. Supernatural knows. However, we are not close relatives. My father and Uncle Han are just righteous brothers, so they don't count as relatives."

"Brother Meng Qi, how could my younger brother not know, of course it's not the brotherhood between General Ma Teng and General Han Sui. This time, my younger brother will also present a good marriage to Brother Meng Qi."

"A good marriage? Brother Yixin means Han Sui's daughter, the Han family?"

"Brother Meng Qi is a talented person in Xiliang, and it is this woman. I heard that this woman is also from the Qiang tribe. Brother Meng Qi is a match made in heaven."

"Brother Yixin, how can you guarantee that Chao will be able to monopolize power by becoming Han Sui's son-in-law?" Ma Chao has lived in Xiliang for a long time, so he naturally understands Han Sui. Ma Teng is a sworn brother, but in fact they are wary of each other, and Han Sui wants to be the master of Xiliang!

"Brother Meng Qi, you only know one thing and not the other. Although Han Sui has the heart of a dominator, he has been influenced by the Qiang people for a long time and loves his daughter very much. Moreover, Han Sui has no patriarchal thought. Son-in-law, he will be highly valued, and will be the master of Xiliang in the future."

"This......?" Ma Chao put down the flagon in his hand and fell into deep thought. (To be continued..)
