Xun You expressed all the work he had done during this period on a canvas. Even though it was just a different color, there was quite a lot of work that needed to be done.
"Okay, now that you are ready, go ahead and do it. If you need to fight, we will fight. If we need to talk, we will talk. I will always be behind you and I will absolutely support you 100%."
Yuan Shu could see Xun You's intentions from this picture. Since he was ready, Yuan Shu had nothing more to say and was done.
"Thank you for your trust, Lord, Liangzhou will definitely be in our pocket."
Liangzhou may have to face a lot of problems this time, whether to fight or negotiate, and what kind of position will be given after recruitment. These are all things that make people scratch their heads, but now that Yuan Shu has said so, what else does he have to worry about?
, just do it and it’s done.
With Yuan Shu's support, Xun You started his own operations. The first thing he had to do was to win over those forces that he thought he could win over. Even if he couldn't win over them, he had to ensure that they would not fight Ma Teng, otherwise he would be in trouble.
If the state continues to fight, the casualties will still be very serious.
A messenger carrying Yuan Shu's letter set out from Jincheng and rushed to various places in Liangzhou.
Yuan Shu was taking action, and Ma Teng was not idle either. He also sent messengers in all directions to win over all the forces that could be won to help him defeat Yuan Shu in Liangzhou. Otherwise, the Ma family in Xiliang might really be wiped out in the hands of the Han Dynasty.
Under the sky.
The first person Ma Teng found was Ma Wan, who also had the surname Ma. Although the two were not related by blood, they still had the same surname after all, and they were relatively easy to win over.
"Lord, General Ma Teng's messenger is here."
Ma Wan's soldiers came in and reported to their lord.
"Ma Teng?"
Hearing what the soldiers said, Ma Wan was also full of doubts. You must know that although he and Ma Teng were both named Ma, they were not related, and now the entire Liangzhou knew that Ma Teng had offended Yuan Shu, and Han Sui surrendered to Yuan Shu.
, a war is inevitably going to happen.
"Um."
The soldier nodded towards Ma Wan.
"Lord, there is a problem here. Ma Teng must have sent people here because he wants us to send troops to fight Yuan Shu with him."
Sun Qing, the commander of Ma Wan's army, frowned and spoke to Ma Wan.
"You are right, Su Zhi, but the current situation is that Yuan Shu has arrived in Liangzhou. It is definitely impossible to come just for Ma Teng. I am afraid that after he takes Ma Teng, he will occupy the entire Liangzhou. Our good life may be
It’s coming to an end too.”
Ma Wan was not stupid. He also saw Yuan Shu's ambition. After all, he sent his troops thousands of miles to Liangzhou to seek revenge. Yuan Shu wanted tangible benefits.
"My lord, although it is said that the lips are broken, it also depends on the strength gap between the two sides. Ma Teng's strength was severely damaged after the defeat of Bingzhou, while Yuan Shu's troops and horses are strong. His two elite cavalry, Yingyang Army and Weilu Army, have all arrived, and they are also
With the two elite soldiers of the First Ascension Army, the Tiger Army, and the servant knights of the foreign race, the gap is a bit big."
Although what Ma Wan said is right, Sun Sunqing is based on reality. The gap between Yuan Shu and Ma Teng is not just a tiny bit.
"Hey, this is exactly what I'm having trouble with. As you said, Ma Teng can't resist Yuan Shu, but can we?
If Ma Teng is really captured by Yuan Shu, Liangzhou will be so big that no one can resist it."
Ma Wan let out a long sigh. Ma Teng was weak, how strong could he be?
He only has more than ten thousand soldiers and horses under his command. If Ma Teng is really defeated, he will be nothing more than a free meal against Yuan Shu.
"Then what do you think, lord?"
Sun Qing also let out a long sigh. The situation was stronger than the others, and it was vividly demonstrated in this troubled world.
"What do I think? In fact, I don't have an answer yet. After all, even if I agree to send troops, it will only be a drop in the bucket. If we want to fight Yuan Shu, we need to unite more talents."
Ma Wan was also scratching his head. The current situation was not a question of whether he should send troops or not. The problem was that even if he agreed to send troops to face Yuan Shu, it would be a free role.
"Have you seen Ma Teng's messenger or not?"
Sun Qing also understood that if they now have 50,000 cavalry, they can still compete with Yuan Shu if they unite with Ma Teng, but it is difficult now.
"See you, take someone to the side hall to meet."
Ma Wan thought for a while and decided to meet Ma Teng's messenger. After all, whether it would succeed or not, he couldn't let Ma Teng lose his face.
"promise."
After a while, Ma Teng's envoy was taken to the side hall, where Ma Wan had already been waiting.
"Mayi pays homage to the general."
After the messenger Ma Yi entered the door, he saluted Ma Wan directly.
"Well, no need to be polite, why did General Ma Teng send you to me?"
Ma Wan looked at the messenger, a glint flashing in his eyes. The reason why he wanted to see Ma Yi was not only to save Ma Yi, but he also wanted to get some other information from here.
"General Ma Wan, it goes without saying that my lord sent me here. Yuan Shu and Han Sui joined forces to attack Liangzhou. Although the main target is my lord, after my lord is completely defeated, then Yuan Shu will
How to do it?"
Ma Yi glanced at Ma Wan, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
"Yuan Shu will go to war with other forces in Liangzhou and eventually take over the entire Liangzhou."
Ma Wan did not pretend to be a fool and directly stated his point of view.
"That's right, Yuan Shu entered Liangzhou this time for revenge. In fact, the real purpose is still Liangzhou. Everyone knows the truth of lip death and tooth coldness. I don't need to say more, but there is one thing I want to make clear."
Ma Yi nodded towards Ma Wan, but the last sentence aroused Ma Wan's interest.
"explain."
"General Ma Wan, don't forget that you are also from the Ma clan. Although you are not from the same clan as my lord, what will others think?
I’m afraid Yuan Shu has already assigned you to our lord’s side. If others can surrender or remain neutral, General you have already been tied to our lord by Yuan Shu. Do you feel right?”
Ma Yi's words really shocked Ma Wan. He had analyzed so much, but was overturned by Ma Yi's words.
Yes, he and Ma Teng share the same surname of Ma. Although they are not from the same clan, what would Yuan Shu think?
I'm afraid he has already been classified as Ma Teng's side. If this is the case, then he will be in trouble.
"I have to say that what you said touched me. Ma Teng and I have the same surname as "horse". This is something I can't change. It seems that I have no choice but to join forces with your lord to fight against Yuan Shu, but I need to know that besides me
What other actions does Ma Teng take, such as whether anyone from other forces agrees? After all, I have to be responsible for the brothers under my command."
