Fa Zheng's words did not make Ma Chao put down his guard. On the contrary, he became more cautious. Unlike Fa Zheng, although Ma Chao had known about the existence of Fa Zheng before, his true understanding only started when he entered the Central Plains.
Before, Ma Chao didn't take Fa Zheng seriously even though he was the lord of princes. However, after Xia Houyuan gave Ma Chao a large amount of information, Ma Chao was extremely afraid of Fa Zheng who casually said that the two had a grudge.
"It seems that there is no way to eliminate your hostility, but it's okay. At least I never wanted to make you depressed. At least I need to let you understand what kind of person I am." Fazheng glanced at Ma Chao, who was slightly cautious, teasing.
said.
"Speak directly if you have anything to say!" Ma Chao frowned and said a little eagerly. Although he knew that Fazheng would not take action against him, after learning about the relationship between the two, he would never be able to be as calm as Fazheng.
Although he could feel that Fazheng was hostile and unhappy towards him, he was able to stabilize his mentality when the other party actually faced him, which made Ma Chao have to be careful.
"I'm just telling you something, so that you don't fall down before you reach your peak." Fazheng said casually, "You can tell that although your strength is good, compared to the real masters, there are still
gap."
Fazheng did not go straight to the subject, but talked to him casually, which made Ma Chao feel a little irritated. He was extremely jealous of him when he was staying with Fazheng. After hearing what Fazheng said, he naturally became even more upset.
"It seems that you can't stand listening anymore." Fazheng's expression has hardly changed. He is not afraid of Ma Chao at all. The purpose of suppressing him before was to make the other party remember certain things. Han etiquette cannot be abolished!
Fazheng was silent for a while. Ma Chao became more and more impatient at this time. His expression had changed several times. He wanted to turn the horse's head several times, but in the end he suppressed his inner impulse. He wanted to know the reason why Fazheng stopped him.
What!
"You are qualified and qualified to know this." Fazheng suddenly said jokingly, and immediately the veins on Ma Chao's forehead popped out.
"As a general, or even a commander-in-chief, sometimes you need the patience you have today. Believe me, it will be good for you." Fazheng laughed, and then changed the topic and said, "Your Ma family has a good relationship with the Qiang and Hu, right?
"
"So what, with your status, how can you not know!" Ma Chao resisted his inner urge to turn around and leave and said with a sneer. He knew that the main event was coming. As for the patience that Fazheng said before, he didn't listen to a word.
Go in, and this is what Fazheng expected.
"If I were your Ma family, I would definitely not recruit the Qiang and Hu at this time. Remember your identity. After you are the princes of the Han Dynasty, it is only your task to appease the Qiang and Hu!" Fa Zheng looked at Ma Chao with a cold expression.
said.
"Humph, that's all you want to say?" Ma Chao said with a sneer, "My Ma family has guarded Xiliang for generations. If it weren't for my Ma family's friendship with the Qiang and Hu, Xiliang would have long been lost to the Han Dynasty. I thought you could
Say something!"
Fazheng smiled but did not answer, and looked at Ma Chao quietly. Ma Chao felt chilled in his heart. Regardless of whether Ma Chao admitted it or not, Fazheng was now the best wise man in the world. With such an expression on the other side, Ma Chao sneered and felt bored.
He will no longer sneer.
"Why don't you laugh?" Fazheng asked casually.
Ma Chao didn't speak. He was already a little uneasy. He stared at Fazheng to see what he could say.
"In the time of Emperor Huan, the Qiang and Barbarians spent 24 billion, but they were not pacified. Why were they pacified later?" Fazheng asked with a smile. In fact, the pacification of the Qiang and Barbarians cost more than 24 billion.
Almost 40 billion dollars.
"Humph, Butcher Duan killed innocent people indiscriminately, causing the Qiang people to rebel!" Ma Chao replied without thinking.
"Is it because Taiwei Duan forced them to resist?" Fazheng chuckled, "Why do I remember that the expansion of the land during Emperor Huan's era was because Taiwei cleared out the Qiang and Hu, ending the so-called pacification, and Ma
The family also declined from that time, right, because the Qiang and Hu tribes were almost wiped out, and there was no way to support the bandits and respect themselves!"
Fa Zheng's words were very rude, but even Ma Chao couldn't refute the fact. The so-called Ma family had great prestige among the Qiang and Hu people and appeased the Qiang and Hu people for the emperor. In fact, it was not like that in the later period. The Ma family could not do without the Qiang and Hu people.
Got it!
"Hmph!" Ma Chao snorted coldly and stopped answering. He had no way to explain this kind of thing clearly, but the existence of the Ma family did allow the Qiang and Hu people to have peace with the Han people for a long time.
"You may not understand a word. People who are not from my race must have different hearts. The Qiang and Hu can be accepted, but if the other party does not recognize our culture, then we should take precautions early. The Qiang and Hu were about to be exterminated back then. If it were not for the Ma family, I am afraid that now
Liangzhou will not be so corrupt." Fazheng's calm words made Ma Chao look gloomy.
"There are more than two to three million Qiang Hu in Liangzhou now, and they are under the command of your Ma family. Do you think you can control those millions of Qiang Hu? Do you know why Li Jue and the others can be safe?
Are you leaving Yongzhou?" Fazheng tilted his head and asked, he did not believe that Ma Chao sensed the crisis of the Ma family.
"If you don't tell me, the reason why Li Jue left is very simple. He taught the Qiang and Hu a lesson, and directly killed hundreds of thousands of Qiang and Hu! The Qiang and Hu did not have the courage to invade Sanfu in a short time!" Fazheng looked sideways.
Ma Chao, who already had a solemn look on his face, understood this situation.
"This won't last long. By the way, if the Hu people don't learn from the wisdom of the Han people, they will be very short-sighted. They will definitely invade Sanfu, and your Ma family will be very passive. And do you think the Qiang and Hu are strong?
?" Fazheng turned his head and looked at Ma Chao's sarcastic smile.
Ma Chao wanted to curse at this moment. Why are the Qiang and Hu strong? As long as the Han Dynasty really wanted to take action, it would not be difficult to kill the Qiang and Hu. This kind of thing happened again forty years ago. Before the Qiang and Hu really took action, Ma Chao wanted to curse.
The Han Dynasty couldn't even resist, and was directly washed with blood!
"Don't you think the Qiang and Hu have danced too hard recently, and there are too many of them? By the way, they didn't listen to the central command, and even blocked Liangzhou. What do you think Cao Cao will do with the two to three million troublesome Qiang and Hu, or
Are you saying that your Ma family can control it, or that they allow you to do this?" Every question Fazheng asked made Ma Chao extremely frightened.
"I'm afraid it's not like that. To be honest, Li Jue's approach is correct, so the next approach will be even more correct. Either die or surrender, from the surrender of body, mind and soul, otherwise a bloodbath like the one forty years ago is inevitable.
, both Cao Cao and my lord can only do this, the Han Dynasty is not suitable for comfort now!" Fazheng's cold words made Ma Chao break out in cold sweat.
