Hearing this, Ma Chao was speechless for a while.

I don’t know if it’s easy to fight or not, but it’s not easy to kill?

Ask those barbarian tribes on the prairie?

Not to mention, rushing into battle during the day and killing hundreds of people in an instant is easier than eating and drinking. Isn’t this called killing?

Well, I also know that killing well and killing people are not exactly the same!

…

In the early summer of the seventh year of Jian'an, the general Lu Bu led 300 personal guards and lightly rode to Chang'an, then led 20,000 horses to march westward to Liangzhou.

After more than a month, I returned to Pingliangzhou.

However, in fact, the real time spent in Pingliang Prefecture was only three days!

After Ma Chao surrendered, he returned to Jincheng with his generals. Not long after, Ma Teng and Han Sui rushed to the Didao military camp and asked Lu Bu to surrender.

Next, there is a series of procedures for taking over Liangzhou.

Zhong Yao, the governor of Chang'an, came forward and took over hundreds of thousands of Liangzhou troops.

The specific takeover method is also very simple.

More than thirty Bingzhou Army generals and three thousand troops joined the Xiliang army and served as the backbone of the army.

With Hua Xiong as the main general, he controls all aspects from the top to the middle and even the bottom.

It is even more direct than when we took over the Liaodong soldiers and horses.

Ma Teng and Han Sui continued to be in Xiliang, each serving as the governor of a county, and they were still the local officials in charge.

But there is no military power.

In addition, three generals, Ma Chao, Pang De and Yan Xing, were all transferred to Xudu.

This method is very blunt.

Also very tough.

Neither Cao Cao nor any other prince would dare to do this.

Because doing this will inevitably intensify the rebellious psychology of the local wealthy families and even the Qiang and Hu tribes.

But that's what Lu Bu did.

Be bright and upright.

He made it clear that he did not trust Ma Teng, Han Sui and the Qiang and Hu tribes.

Regardless of Qiang and Hu, Ma Teng and Han Sui are indeed not worthy of trust.

Not only them, but Lu Bu didn't believe anyone in Liangzhou!

It has been almost twenty years since the end of the seventh year of Guanghe's reign. During this period, Liangzhou has been in rebellion.

Therefore, no one here is worthy of trust!

Because they have formed an inertial mindset of rebellion.

Including Ma Teng, Han Sui, and even Ma Chao.

If Cao Cao or other princes pacify Liangzhou, they will definitely appease the local wealthy families and the Qiang and Hu tribes.

But Lu Bu has no habit of being accommodating to others.

Directly and forcefully insert his cronies and take over everything in Liangzhou!

It's not that Lu Bu doesn't know the art of speaking softly and moving back and forth.

I just think that being stronger is more efficient!

He doesn't have the patience to grind it out!

Time waits for no one.

So come on hard.

There are ignorant people everywhere.

Xiliang is naturally not lacking either.

This time, Lu Bu was not so easy to talk to.

After killing a group of Xiliang generals and several Qiang and Hu tribesmen, Dian Wei led his troops and quickly slaughtered them.

It’s okay not to mention the reason.

…

In the seventh year of Jian'an, Xia.

Lu Bu pinged Liangzhou and returned to Xudu.

With him are still the personal guards Dian Wei and Xu Chu, as well as three hundred personal guards.

Of course, there are three more powerful generals: Ma Chao, Pang De, and Yan Xing.

Ma Chao and Pang De need not say much, but Yan Xing gave Lu Bu a feeling of unexpected joy.

In later generations, Yan Xing was far less famous than Ma Chao and Pang De.

It is only recorded that when Ma Teng and Han Sui had an early conflict, Yan Xing almost killed Ma Chao.

Only when I actually saw it did I realize that it was really impressive.

Yan Xing

General level: mighty general

Qualifications: Talented and beautiful

Comprehension: Draw inferences from one instance

Talent: One in a million

Martial Arts: Top Grandmaster

Arm strength: four oxen

Description: Top-notch marksmanship.

Astonishingly, he is a 'strong general' on the same level as Pound!

No wonder he almost killed Ma Chao once.

The conflict between Ma Teng and Han Sui was about eight or nine years ago.

Ma Chao is twenty-five years old this year and Yan Xing is thirty.

Eight or nine years ago, Ma Chao was only fifteen years old, and his martial arts had not yet reached its peak. Yan Xing was in his early twenties, when his military strength was at its strongest. It was not surprising that he defeated Ma Chao, who had not yet grown up.

Because of this, Lu Bu brought Yan Xingye to Xudu.

Any fierce general in this world is the future great master and the choice of the divine general of the Qi Luck Dynasty.

Lu Bu didn't want to miss any of them.

After marching for half a month, we finally arrived at Xudu.

I left for half a month, stayed for more than a month, and came back for half a month. It took me two months to go back and forth.

More than ten miles away from Xudu, from a distance, I saw Jia Xu, Zhang Liao, Cao Cao and others who had stayed behind in Xudu, and they lined up to greet them.

"We are waiting to welcome the general, Pingliang Prefecture, back with a great victory!"

Everyone cupped their hands and cheered loudly.

Lu Bu laughed and urged his horse to meet him.

Immediately, a crowd of people surrounded Lu Bu and returned to the city.

During this period, Cao Cao, who was very thoughtful, looked at Ma Chao, Pang De and Yan Xing beside Lu Bu and sighed in his heart.

What to sigh about?

Naturally, he lamented that he had taken the right step by not taking action in the first place, but sincerely surrendering.

He had already known about Lu Bu's capture of Ma Chao and Pang De.

Thinking about the situation in Guandu that day, Cao Cao suddenly realized that at that time, Lu Bu really had no special arrangements.

Because it's not needed.

Even if Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Xiahou Dun, Zhang Hen, Yan Liang, Cao Ren, Xia Houyuan, Cao Hong and others came together, they would be like grass in front of Lu Bu!

His intuition at the time was right!

Not mentioning this.

In the city, a celebration banquet has been prepared.

What follows is naturally a feast, not to mention too much.
