Chapter 287 Ma Su: General Zhengxi cannot be humiliated
Chapter 287 Ma Su: The general who conquers the west cannot be humiliated
After Alster killed Corbynen, he took the throne on his own. Because he was deeply impressed by Ma Su's plan, and because the latter helped him achieve his goal, he organized everyone and came to see Ma Su.
This was already three days after the mutiny and brother-killing.
Alster stood on the top of the hill, looking towards the south and asked: "General, last night I dreamed repeatedly that I lost my footing and fell into a pool of abyss, and was bitten by thousands of shrimps and crabs. I dreamed nine times in a row. I don't know what good or bad luck I have. Is it because of my brother's resentment?
Soul seeking life?"
How can Ma Su know how to interpret dreams? Dreaming is more or less the same.
He immediately laughed and said nonsense: "Dreamers are all rebels. Nine times entering the abyss means that the dragon will turn into the sky. This is a sign of great auspiciousness and great celebration. Don't you hear the saying that the dragon lurks in the abyss and the nine insects rise to the sky? Your Majesty will lead today.
Xianbei just confirms the good omen of flying to the sky in the dream."
Hearing this, Alstai was overjoyed and asked: "In the past, when my brother was here, it was only thanks to the general's good advice that Xianbei was as prosperous as it is today. Now 50,000 elite soldiers are in place, and weapons and armor are ready."
.Don’t know where to send troops?”
Different from Kirby's worries, Alster is completely a war maniac. In addition, he killed his brother to rise to power, and his reputation is extremely poor. He urgently needs to fight a few beautiful wars to increase his prestige and quell the dissatisfaction of his tribe.
Therefore, there is no ambiguity at all about attacking Wei.
Ma Di was of course happy to see success in this regard. The harder Xianbei and Wei fought, the smaller the difficulties Shu Han would face.
"In addition to Guanzhong, the Wei State still has more than 200,000 troops distributed in Yecheng, Luoyang, Hefei, and Xiangyang. Reinforcements are bound to arrive in the near future, so it is better to annex Bingzhou early, march to the east of Hedong, and target Luoyang, the capital of Wei. How to use troops
The most important thing is the speed of soldiers. Now we should take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and attack Huanglong directly!"
These words made Alster's blood boil with excitement, and he immediately wanted to go down the mountain and lead his army to Taiyuan.
Ma Su quickly stopped him and explained this again.
When Alster heard what he understood, he nodded repeatedly and shouted "Great idea".
Early the next morning, Alster left 10,000 troops to look after his home, and personally led 40,000 elite cavalry to rush towards Taiyuan in a mighty manner.
Ma Su and his entourage of eight people rode seven horses and were hung at the rear of the army to accompany them.
Within two days, five thousand Xianbei vanguard troops rushed all the way to Jinyang City and surrounded the north gate, waiting for the follow-up army and the military orders of the new king Alstai.
There are still 5,000 Wei troops in Jinyang City. The defenders are Dong Bi and Su Shang. They were originally the generals of Bi Gui, the governor of Bingzhou. After the defeat of the previous Wei army, Bi Gui and Qin Lang led the remaining troops to break out.
They have been dismissed by Cao Rui for investigation, and Qin Lang has also been recalled to Luoyang for accountability. When Qin Lang returned south, he appointed the two as Taiyuan guards to prevent the Xianbei people from going south.
Upon hearing that the Xianbei's vanguard troops were coming, Dong Bifang wanted to take advantage of their unstable foothold to launch a full-army assault, but was hurriedly stopped by Su Shang.
The two of them leaned on the railing and saw wolf smoke billowing from the due north, loud shouts, and soon an infinite number of cavalry came rushing down the road, all gathering at the north gate, creating an endless darkness.
The second general looked solemn, and Su Shang suggested: "Now the enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered, so we should only hold on and not be reckless."
Dong Bishen thought so and followed it.
In the middle of the night, it was suddenly reported that Xianbei soldiers had borrowed ropes to sneak in from the top of the east city wall and were trying to seize the door. Dong Bi was shocked and ordered his soldiers to rush to the east city to support them, and they started a fierce battle with Xianbei on the city tower.
Because it was dark, it was difficult to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. They did not know how many people were accidentally killed. Seeing that the situation at the east gate was still anxious, Dong Bi left Su Shang to guard the north gate and personally led his troops to the east gate to rescue the emergency.
As soon as Dong Bi left, fire broke out on all sides in the direction of the west gate. Xianbei soldiers sneaked up from the corner to the tower, cut off the wooden bolts of the top door, and let the Xianbei people in.
Su Shang had to draw his sword himself and rushed to the west gate to put out the fire. As soon as he reached the ground, he was shot in the chest by a random arrow. Regardless of his serious injury, Su Shang drew his sword and urged the soldiers to come forward and clash with each other in an attempt to stabilize the situation. However, he quickly said
Vomiting blood, he fell down clutching his chest.
Before he died, Su Shang looked up to the sky and shouted: "If God doesn't help me, the Wei Dynasty, how can people resist?!"
After Su Shang died, Ximen fell quickly, and the Xianbei people swarmed in. An unknown number of people died in the chaos. Fortunately, there was an order from Alstai that soldiers were not allowed to disturb the people after entering the city, so most of the dead were soldiers from both sides.
.
Seeing that the situation was over, Dong Bi led hundreds of people to rush out of the east gate and fled without a trace.
By dawn in the east, Taiyuan City was completely under the control of Ulster, and the entire Bingzhou was now in the hands of the Xianbei people.
When the Southern Xiongnu and Eastern Qianghu tribes living around Bingzhou heard the news, they rose up one after another, announced that they would break off diplomatic relations with Wei, dominate the area, and invade the surrounding state capitals. The situation in the northern border of Wei became increasingly corrupt.
At the same time, the Dongxianbei and Wuhuan tribes located in the central and eastern areas of Youzhou, as well as Liaodong Gongsun Yuan, were also unable to sit still. They all claimed that Youzhou has been their territory since ancient times. Each family gathered their troops and attempted to invade the south.
Wei State.
Previously, due to the great power of the Wei State, the Eastern Qianghu, Southern Xiongnu, Western Xianbei, Central Xianbei, Eastern Xianbei, and Wuhuan tribes distributed around the northern border of the Wei State had to submit to the Wei State. Now the Wei State has lost consecutive battles.
The western front was suppressed by 200,000 Shu troops, and the northern front was defeated one after another. The 100,000-strong army was almost wiped out.
Although the Wei State currently has more than 200,000 troops in various places in addition to the 150,000 troops in the Guanzhong area, because it needs to guard against too many opponents, it can hardly deploy many troops to withstand the 40,000 Xianbei cavalry.
Under this situation, all the surrounding barbarians felt that it was time for them to come out and encircle their territory and grab people.
And this is exactly what Ma Su wants to see.
Ma Di and Alster stood side by side on the tower of Jinyang City, facing the morning glow, discussing their next plan.
Alstai said with emotion: "As expected by the general, Jinyang fell in one battle. Now that all Bingzhou has belonged to me, Xianbei, do you want to continue to lead the army south?"
Ma Su shook his head: "At that time, only the Xianbei family invaded Wei, so we should go forward without hesitation to intimidate the Central Plains. Now that all the barbarians have risen together to invade Wei, this strategy is no longer appropriate. We can order all the troops to return to their camps and wait for a good opportunity."
"Your Majesty can choose a date to meet with all the Hu tribes in Taiyuan to discuss how to divide their respective territories and divide the Wei territory. You can grant the land east of Henei to the Southern Xiongnu and the Eastern Qianghu. You can grant the three states of You, Ji, and Qing to Gongsun Yuan.
, Dong Xianbei, Wuhuan. As for the great kings, they can monopolize Bingzhou."
Hearing this, Alstai was a little reluctant: "I, Xianbei, defeated the Wei army, but now I only occupy a small area and merged with the state. Isn't it a big loss? In my opinion, these Youzhou, Jizhou, and Hedong Hanoi should be mine."
From the Xianbei people!"
Ma Su said seriously: "Could it be that your Majesty wants to make enemies of heaven and man? Does he want the people of Xianbei to die without a burial place?"
Alstai was startled: "I don't mean this, right? This Wei army was defeated by my Xianbei people. Of course, the northern states should belong to me, Xianbei. This is reasonable and reasonable. I have never attacked Zhuhu, let alone robbed them."
With their territory and women, they have no reason to attack me, right?"
"Principle is such a principle, but at this moment, no one will convince others with it." Ma Di shook his head and laughed: "Don't you know, the king, that benefits can be shared, but not alone?"
"If the Xianbei people take away all the benefits of defeating Wei, what do you think Zhuhu will do?"
Alstai clearly looked down on the Southern Xiongnu, Eastern Qianghu and Wuhuan people. He blew his beard and glared: "What will they do? Is it possible that they still dare to fight with me, Xianbei?"
"Of course they don't dare to attack Xianbei alone." Ma Di waved his hand and changed his voice: "What if the Wei State calls on them to be diligent and hoe thieves?"
Alster was startled and silent.
Indeed, if the Xianbei people hold all the post-war benefits in their hands, these large Hu tribes will never be willing to give in. Although their individual strength is not as strong as that of Zhong Xianbei, the combined strength of all tribes must be higher than that of Xianbei.
of.
Moreover, if the Wei State continues to add fuel to the flames behind the scenes, promising to allocate good land to settle the various barbarians after defeating Xianbei... I think the Xianbei people will definitely face a situation where they will attack in groups.
Seeing that Alstai was touched, Ma Su added more fuel to the fire, "Has the king forgotten the dream of falling into the abyss a few days ago and being surrounded by shrimps and crabs?"
Alstair was startled again: "Didn't the general say that was a good omen?"
Ma Su didn't realize the true meaning of this dream until this moment, and explained with a smile: "It is indeed a good sign that the flying dragon enters the sky, but these shrimps and crabs are enough to stop the dragon from rising from the abyss. Don't you think, the king?
Are the shrimps and crabs very similar to those around here?"
After saying this, Alster suddenly realized, "Ah, yes, yes, the general's method of interpreting dreams is wonderful. It completely cleared up all the doubts in my heart. At first, I didn't fully believe the general's interpretation of dreams, but now I fully believe it. I believe it!"
"
"Okay, just follow the general's words!"
"Come here, please quickly invite the barbarians from all tribes to come to Taiyuan to form an alliance and discuss how to divide the northern land of Wei!"
Ma Su looked at Alstai with satisfaction and repeatedly praised him for his wisdom and martial prowess. He would definitely be able to revive Xianbei and regain the glory of the past when Tanshihuai was there.
Then he changed his voice, resigned, left Taiyuan City, took the four major generals and their families, and quietly embarked on the road back to Guanzhong.
The journey was quiet and smooth.
Until he entered the border of Hedong, Zhang Xiu finally couldn't help it anymore. He reined up his horse and walked quickly for a few steps. He caught up with Ma Su and asked: "General, it seems that there is still time to fight, why did you leave?"
Li Sheng took over the conversation: "Stupid, you don't understand this. I guess the general is homesick and misses the ladies at home. He will get tired of sleeping with a woman all the time."
As soon as this statement came out, the style of painting suddenly changed.
The great wizard sitting behind Ma Su's pretty face turned red, feeling ashamed and annoyed, and angrily pinched Ma Su's waist.
There are too many Ma Di wives. Except for the original wife who is a little old and wan, the others are young and beautiful, have both literary and military skills, and are good at singing and dancing. This has made the great wizard uneasy all the time. His sense of crisis is always full, for fear that someone will
One day Ma Su suddenly didn't like her anymore and left her alone.
Now when I heard Li Sheng's words, I couldn't help but start thinking wildly.
Ma Su glared at Li Sheng, and it was obvious that this guy was a bit broken after his annual salary was deducted, and he did not take him seriously as a general.
He immediately looked at the other two people and asked calmly: "What about you, why do you think this general returned?"
Seeing that Ma Su didn't get angry, the four generals secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.
Yang Wanwan was outspoken and said immediately: "The general does not think so. The general has always been concerned about the country and has taken it as his own responsibility to help the Han Dynasty. This sudden return must be for national affairs, not for the sake of the love between his children."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became weird.
Huang Xi, Li Sheng, Zhang Xiu and the others stared at Yang Wanwan back and forth like a traitor with their eyes wide open. There was an unbelievable look in their eyes. Good guy, when did you side with the general?
After hearing this, the great wizard's face softened slightly, thinking that he might have misunderstood Ma Su, so he quickly stretched out his little hand and gently rubbed the place where she had just pinched her.
As for the two mixed-race sisters, they just watched the show with confused expressions.
Yes, little Yang Qian has a bright future! Unlike Li Sheng, who always challenges my patience, Ma Su glanced at Yang Wanwan approvingly: "Go on."
"do not stop."
"I can still stand it!"
Yang Wanwan smiled and said yes, facing the disdainful looks of Huang Xi, Li Sheng, Zhang Xiu and the others, he suddenly changed his voice and asked the three of them: "You three, what is the gap between Ji Han and Wei at the moment?
"
Without waiting for the three people to answer, he said to himself: "The difference lies in the economy, the number of soldiers and horses, and the population."
"Among them, the population is the most critical. Once the population increases, the number of soldiers and horses and the total economic output of our Shu Han will naturally increase. Do you think this is right?!"
Huang Xi raised his hand to interrupt him and said angrily: "Stop talking nonsense, what exactly do you want to say?"
Yang Baiwan smiled, glanced at Ma Su, and said calmly: "Increasing the population has always been the most important national policy of the Shu Han Dynasty. And the general hurried back this time just to implement the national policy personally. Everyone.
Think about it, how should the population be increased? Of course, let the wives and concubines give birth to children one after another. If the wives and concubines do not give birth to offspring, then how can I, the Shu Han, have a tomorrow?"
"So, when the general comes back this time, he only has three things to do: give birth to a baby, give birth to a baby, and give birth to a baby!"
"..."
Although he sounds a bit taller, he still comes back to play with women, let’s play for a different time!
"Hahaha..." Huang Xi, Li Sheng, Zhang Xiu and the others looked at each other and laughed loudly.
It turns out that Xiao Yang is one of our own.
I wrongly blamed him.
Hiss~~
Ma Su took a breath and felt that his waist and eyes were suddenly clamped hard by a pair of pliers, and then rotated 360 degrees.
She was a great wizard, and she struck very hard this time. It seemed that Yang Wanwan's words took her to heart. Not having children has always been an embarrassment that she could not face head-on.
It's better now. After Yang Wanwan's analysis, she also felt that Ma Su suddenly came back from the grassland because he thought she was useless and wanted to find another wife to accompany her.
Therefore, the great wizard was really angry this time, angry and aggrieved, and she was already crying silently. If there weren't so many people at the meeting, she would have cried out loud.
Ma Su glared at Yang Wanwan fiercely, then turned to Huang Xi and Zhang Xiu, "Tell me, what do you two think?"
When they met Ma Su's cold eyes, the two of them were frightened. They waved their hands repeatedly and said in unison: "General, it's not important what we think. It's not important. What's important is... what does Madam think?"
Ma Su glared: "Don't try to shirk the blame, just say it!"
Zhang Xiu and Huang Xi looked at each other with embarrassed expressions. After hesitating for a long time, Zhang Xiu said bravely:
"General, I think Xiao Yang is right."
"Ah, yes, yes, I think Xiao Yang is right too!" Huang Xi quickly followed.
After the two of them finished speaking, they glanced at Yang Baiwan and said to themselves, Xiao Yang, take the move.
Ma Su turned his head again and looked at Yang Wanwan.
Cold sweat flowed down Yang Wanwan's forehead.
He knew that the joke was too big.
Secretly, I was trembling with fear.
I don't know how Ma Su will punish him.
Ma Di looked around at the four generals, his voice without emotion:
