The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 275 Gambling in Chang'an City

"Da da da da..."

Amidst the sound of horseshoes in a hurry, Wei Tao rode forward again, glanced at him, and then asked.

"Where are Ma Teng and Han Sui, please tell me."

When the two armies confronted each other, morale came first. Facing Wei Tao like this, the two of them naturally couldn't resist, and then they rushed out again, but this time both of them were followed by several generals.

The two of them didn't answer, but Han Sui saw a general riding out behind him, pointing at the weapon in his hand and shouting.

"I am Yan Xing of Xiliang Jincheng, Wei Tao can come and fight with me!"

Wei Tao was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Ma Chao and the others behind Ma Teng who were eager to move, and immediately understood a little bit.

"Hehe... I never thought that I would be underestimated."

Wei Tao's resourcefulness is not low, as long as Wei Wei thinks about it, he can't help but secretly smile in his heart.

If Wei Tao really fell into the siege of others easily by relying on his bravery, then it is impossible for Wei Tao to become a rare and ever-victorious general in the world.

In the final analysis, Xiliang people were too proud and unconsciously underestimated Wei Tao.

But this time Wei Tao already had other plans, so he didn't respond to Yan Xing immediately, but turned his attention to Ma Teng and Han Sui.

"Ma Shoucheng, Han Wenyue, I know that you are different from Yuan Shao and Dong Zhuo's rebellion, and you are still somewhat loyal to His Majesty. Now that the big man is falling apart, if we wait here to fight, wouldn't it make the rebels feel better?" Proud? Now I have something to tell you, do you want to hear it?"

Hearing Wei Tao's words, both Ma Teng and Han Sui couldn't help being taken aback.

Wei Tao's words run counter to what he said before, and what he said actually meant that he wanted to live in peace with himself.

Ma Teng and Han Sui looked at each other, both of them didn't understand why, but they were not afraid of Wei Tao delaying time, after a little hesitation, Ma Teng immediately asked.

"May I ask General Wei what advice you have? Wen Yue and I came here on the order of the Son of Heaven, but we dared not enter because we were afraid of being killed. I don't know if the general has anything to say. ?”

Although the words were cryptic, one could understand the meaning of Ma Teng's words after a little thought.

However, Wei Tao was not angry at all. After talking with Zhou Yu, Wei Tao already had a comprehensive plan, and he just smiled slightly when faced with these words.

"What I say is beneficial to both sides."

I only heard Wei Tao speak slowly at this time.

"This is at the foot of the emperor of the Han Dynasty. It will be disadvantageous if you make a big move again. Therefore, I am willing to bet with you that none of you will be the halberd in my hand! If you win, I will hand over the city of Chang'an. I will be guarded by you, so naturally you can rest assured to see Your Majesty!"

To be honest, up to now, Wei Tao has put aside even the last trace of admiration for the imperial power, and these words have completely ignored the Han royal family.

In fact, it wasn't just Wei Tao. Hearing Wei Tao's words, there was a slight hesitation on Ma Teng's face, and he didn't say anything in the end.

After Zen let the emperor sit in Yuan Shao, the majesty of the great Han had indeed ceased to exist, and there was nothing but a nominal shell.

Under such circumstances, even those who were originally loyal to the big man would unconsciously hesitate a bit at this time.

"What if our side loses? Let us retreat to Xiliang like this? Wouldn't this be a violation of His Majesty's order? We have always known the general's might, and I don't want the general to be resourceful."

Seeing that Ma Teng was silent, Han Sui naturally knew that this was Ma Teng's inner struggle, so he opened his mouth immediately.

"I am Xiliang Iron Cavalry Wushuang. Could it be that General Wei also knows to be afraid? I want to gamble with this, but I don't know what I will pay if my army loses? Is it okay to return to Xiliang?"

"Give what? No, you don't have to give anything."

Wei Tao smiled slightly, but no one would believe this statement, as expected, Wei Tao's next sentence was just that.

"My ambition is to calm the border troubles, so that my big man will not be invaded by foreign races. Although the Qiang people defended you from Xiliang, they did not submit to my big man. When they entered Sili, they even disturbed the people. Can't bear it."

When Wei Tao said this, his eyes swept away. Rao Ma Teng and Han Sui also came out of the sea of ​​corpses and blood, and they couldn't help but feel the momentum, and they dared not face Wei Tao head-on.

"So my request is very simple. If I win this battle, if all the Qiang people under your command want to stay in the Han area, they must abide by the rules of the Han, speak the language of the Han, write about the affairs of the Han, and abide by the laws of the Han. ! If not, I will drive them all out of the Central Plains and Han, and not allow them to set foot!"

Wei Tao's voice was very severe, and Wei Tao didn't need any guarantee, his own strength was the best guarantee.

Ma Teng and Han Sui looked at each other. Although they had made plans before, they never thought that the matter would develop to this point, and Wei Tao would dare to do such a thing.

Looking at the astonished faces of Ma Teng and Han Sui, Wei Tao couldn't help but smile slightly. I'm afraid this move will surprise them both.

In fact, this decision also exceeded Wei Tao's own expectations. When Zhou Yu mentioned this to Wei Tao, it also shocked Wei Tao.

But it wasn't until Zhou Yu talked to Wei Tao carefully that Wei Tao realized that this was the best choice for him. Until then, Wei Tao still remembered what Zhou Yu said.

"My lord, do you know that our army is in danger now? Although Bingzhou has been under the rule of the lord for a long time, it has a vast land and few people, and it is not a place of wealth. It is also invaded by the Huns, and it has been barely able to supply itself. Although Youzhou is under the rule of the lord , but only in terms of military affairs, it is still impossible to rely on Youzhou. As for Jizhou, although it has always been for the rich, it has been used for Yuan Shao's conquest for a long time, and it has recently been brought under the command of the lord, so it is also difficult to raise money and food for the lord."

Zhou Yu's tone was unpleasant, but Wei Tao's heart sank every time he said a word.

"My lord, our army's logistics are already in trouble."

Successive victories can cover up many problems, especially Wei Tao's seizures after each big victory, even Wei Tao himself did not expect that the matter would be so serious.

Are you in danger of running out of food?

But Wei Tao thought about it carefully, but he knew what Zhou Yu said was true, so why did he go to Jizhou?
Isn't it because Jizhou is rich and rich in food production, which can be used for fighting against foreigners?
Similarly, Wei Tao also understood at the time why Zhou Yu was willing to fall for it. In fact, Zhou Yu also knew that this was not the time to continue the war, let alone start a war with Cao Cao, another great prince besides himself.

As for Xiliang, after waking up Wei Tao, Zhou Yu smiled slightly, and a plan was sent up.

That's the plan now.

Sure enough, this plan was beyond Ma Teng's and Han Suizhi's expectations, and everyone was dumbfounded and unable to respond, allowing Wei Tao to display his prestige.

"How? I heard that Xiliang values ​​warriors. Is there no one in Xiliang who can fight me?"

Seeing Ma Teng and Han Sui being speechless for a while, Wei Tao would not be so easy to let them go and then shouted loudly.

"I, Wei Tao, am here to wait for Xiliang Xiliang, how dare you promise so much?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Wait for me to fight you for another [-] rounds!"

Wei Tao's words immediately angered many people, but due to military discipline and yesterday's battle, even if he was angry in his heart, he dared not speak out. Only Ma Chao shouted violently, wanting to fight Wei Tao.

"Ma Mengqi, your martial arts are not bad, but you are worse than me! I, Wei Tao, have experienced hundreds of battles, and the only one I can't win is the battle with Lu Bulu Fengxian. In the past when Hulao was locked up, I joined forces with you. All the generals under his command are above him, he is barely able to win, and his demeanor can be said to be yearning for him. That being the case, let me say something here, and you will choose three people to fight with me, and the outcome will be as stated , so dare?"

Wei Tao immediately forced Ma Teng and Han Sui to question him.

If they didn't dare to respond, then Ma Teng and Han Sui would no longer have to command Xiliang, and the soldiers under their command would probably lose their hearts.

"Okay, but you are only allowed to fight alone in this battle. If you lose, you must not go back on your word!"

Han Sui had more detours than Ma Teng, and after thinking about it for a while, he opened his mouth.

Regarding Han Sui's words, Ma Teng did not refute, but nodded in approval.

"That's what I mean too. If General Wei can really beat my sons and my sons, then all of us in Xiliang will naturally be dissatisfied, and the entire Qiang clan is willing to obey the general's order."

The Qiang people are proud of their bravery, so Ma Teng is more supported by the Qiang people than Han Sui. Now that he makes such a statement, he naturally believes it.

"Hahahaha... Ma Teng, Han Sui, you are so presumptuous to be called heroes! How dare you treat the belly of a hero with such a villainous heart!"

Ma Teng thought what he said was quite complete, but it was so ridiculous to Wei Tao's ears.

After a burst of laughter, Wei Tao raised his halberd to the sky and shouted loudly.

"If someone in the Xiliang army can beat the halberd in my hand, I will withdraw from Chang'an and Sili! Now, is there anyone who dares to fight me!"

"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!"

General is the courage of soldiers, Wei Tao, as the commander of an army, can do this, how can there be any cowardly and retreating people under his command, under his stern voice, people can't help being frightened and afraid to face him directly.

"I'm here to fight you!"

The one who can still be fearless at this time, the only one with a strong fighting spirit is none other than Ma Chao.

Faced with this situation, Ma Chao's fighting spirit did not weaken at all, but became even more vigorous.

"Pang De, you are helping Meng Qi!"

Ma Teng is also a man who has experienced many battles. Although the morale of Wei Tao's command is so high that he is also shocked, but it is not out of control, and he immediately ordered Pang De to fight.

"promise!"

Pang De was not as brave as Ma Chao, he just responded silently, but he was steady.

"Yan Xing, this battle cannot be defeated, be more careful!"

Han Sui on the side also responded, it is impossible for Ma Teng's subordinates to fight in this battle, and it is Yan Xing that Han Sui can fight.

"Follow my lord's orders."

Yan Xing cupped his hands, then calmly looked at Wei Tao,

All of a sudden, the three generals came together to force Wei Tao.

(Thanks to Tianye № Wukong for the reward, and thank you for your support, thank you!)
