————The following text————
Shanggu Shou Ma She was a general who was stationed in Zhuo County, Shanggu County in the northeast of Korea, guarding against the powerful enemies "Dai Rong" and "Lou Fan" in the north of Korea.
Ma She came from a poor background. When he was young, he was just an official who collected land rent. After the last King of Han, "Xuan", was selected by the Korean royal family to succeed him as king, he once went to the fields of "Han Shi", the father of "King Xuan of Han", due to official duties.
Collect rent.
At that time, Han Shi's father moved from "Xiaquyang" to "Wu'an" in the southwest of Handan because of his son's wealth. He was even canonized as "Wu'an Marquis" by his son Han Wangxuan, and he was very popular in the Han court.
As the saying goes, a rising tide lifts all boats. "Wu'an Hou Han Shi" became the most powerful person in the Han court. His servants inevitably became arrogant and arrogant. So when Ma She went to collect rent with his staff, Wu'an Hou Han Shi's servants refused to pay.
Land rent, and his attitude is arrogant and unreasonable.
At that time, none of the accompanying officials dared to offend "Wu'an Hou Han Shi" and persuaded Ma She, but in the end, Ma She punished "Wu'an Hou Han Shi"'s servants according to law and took the land back with him for a lot of money.
After learning about this, "Wu'an Hou Han Shi" was furious and shocked. He thought to himself, my son has been the king of Han for many years, how dare you, a small official collecting land rent in Mashe, not give me face?
Therefore, Han Shi, the Marquis of Wu'an, sent people to capture Ma She and wanted to kill him to vent his anger.
At that time, when Ma She, who was only a young man, saw Han Shi, the Marquis of Wu'an, he said to the latter: "I am helping you. You think about it, your young master is the king of my country, and all the government orders of my country are
From the hands of your master, if you allow your servants to disrespect the king's decree, who in the country will listen to it? In this way, the decree will be weakened
, will definitely lead to the decline of Korea, and the countries in the Central Plains will definitely take the opportunity to invade. How can you maintain your current wealth and status? In my opinion, with your dignity and status, you should uphold the king's decrees and abide by the law.
In this way, fairness will be achieved at the top and bottom, which will make Korea stronger and the king's position more stable."
At that time, Han Shi, the Marquis of Wu'an, heard what Ma She said and felt that what he said was very reasonable. Seeing that Ma She was very courageous, he felt happy and recommended Ma She to his son "King Xuan of Han".
King Xuan of Han was a pragmatic and hard-working king. He attached great importance to Ma She, recommended by his father, and promoted Ma She to be in charge of national taxation. Over the years, he made the people rich and the national treasury full.
After waiting for more than ten years, King Xuan of Han passed away due to overwork and illness. He passed the throne to his eldest son "Jian". "King Jian" was weak and sick and died of illness within a few years. He passed the throne to his younger brother "Ki of Han".
Compared with his father and brother, Han Wangqi was a wise and powerful king. Under his rule, Korea became increasingly powerful.
A few years later, the King of Han saw that the new king of Qi had just succeeded to the throne, so he decided to take the opportunity to attack Qi and aspire to conquer the Central Plains. However, he never thought that this new king of Qi would be the later overlord of the Central Plains, King Lu Xi of Qi.
At that time, the State of Qi rose to power due to the succession of King Lu Xi of Qi. It united the two countries of Lu and Song, reversed the disadvantages of the "Confrontation between Qi and South Korea" in one fell swoop, and formed the "Julu Navy" to attack South Korea. At that time, South Korea suffered repeated defeats.
No general dared to lead an army on the expedition, so everyone unanimously recommended that Kang Gong and Han Hu, who was stationed in Daijun in the north, be called in.
The problem is that the King of Han has always been afraid of Kang Gong Han Hu, so how could he be willing to mobilize Han Hu's army?
At this time, Ma She generously asked for help and begged the King of Han to lead troops to the expedition.
At Ma She's insistence, the King of Han agreed to the matter and appointed Ma She as general to lead troops to fight the Qi army and support Bao Yuan on the front line.
And Ma She did not disappoint the King of Han. Although he did not defeat the Qi army, he made Qi King Lu Xi realize the strength of South Korea. At that time, the Qi State was also troubled by the Chu State, so he gave up the Northern Expedition and returned to Linzi, focusing on Deal with Chu State.
From then on, King Qi of Han saw Ma She's talent in leading troops in war, and he was very dissatisfied with the generals who were originally afraid of the Qi army, so he officially appointed Ma She as a general.
Therefore, Ma She is a veteran of the four dynasties who successively assisted "Han Wang Xuan", "Han Wang Jian", "Han Wang Qi" and the current "Han Wang Ran".
It was a pity that before and after Han Wangran succeeded to the throne, his royal power was ousted by three people, including Li Hou Han Wu, Kang Gong Han Hu and Zhuang Gong Han Geng. Ma She lost to the latter three in the temple and was transferred to Shanggu County to serve as the guardian of Shanggu.
Although the military power in his hands was not removed, he was unable to help Han Wangran and could only vent his resentment on Dai Rong and Lou Fan.
So over the years, after hearing the name "Shanggu Shou Mashe", Dai Rong and Lou Fan were too afraid to invade Shanggu County, ensuring the security and stability of the Korean border in Dai County and Shanggu County.
Nowadays, even though Ma She is over forty years old, he is still respected as one of the "Top Ten Heroes of Beiyuan" because of his outstanding military achievements. Even Lou Fanren respects this Korean general and is even willing to accept Ma She's surrender. , became the "Lou Fan Bing" under Ma She - a cavalry group famous for its mounted shooting.
This is where Li Hou Han Wu, Kang Gong Han Hu and Zhuang Gong Han Geng were wary of Shanggu Shou Mashe, because the latter had a Loufan cavalry that was braver and better at riding and shooting than their Korean cavalry.
About twelve days ago, that is, before and after the Wei army attacked "Zhangshui", Ma She, who was stationed in Zhuo County, Shanggu County, received a letter asking for help from Handan.
The letter stated that the Wei army had broken through Qiguan and was targeting Handan, and hoped that Ma She would quickly lead his troops to support him.
At that time, Ma She was shocked when he saw the letter asking for help. After all, he had not received any news about the failure of his own army to attack Wei. How come that in the blink of an eye, the Wei army even breached Qiguan?
So, Ma She quickly mobilized 20,000 troops and rushed to Handan.
The journey from Zhuoxian County to Handan was more than a thousand miles, but Ma She ordered the entire army to march quickly. Shengsheng arrived at Handan within twelve days. On average, it was said to be a hundred miles a day. This marching speed was definitely considered to be amazing.
Unfortunately, he was still a step late. By the time he arrived in the Handan area around Yinshi on May 19, Handan had already been captured by King Su's army.
"how so?"
After instructing the entire army to be ready for battle at any time, Ma She frowned and looked at the firelight in the direction of Handan.
In his impression, the Handan Army was quite strong. At least the main forces attacking Wei in recent years were all branched out from the Handan Army, including Bao Yuan, Jin Mao, Han Yang, Sima Shang, and Xin. Zan and others were all well-known generals in Korea, not to mention Kang Gong and Han Hu who were stationed in Handan. How could the Wei army invade the city so easily?
I have to say that Ma She, the Shanggu Shou, is really confused.
It’s no wonder, after all, no one in the world has used assassins in siege warfare, so siege warfare is nothing more than forced siege and internal and external cooperation, like the Black Crows using climbing tools to climb up Handan City and then kill the guards Not to mention that South Korea didn't understand the special tactic of opening the city gate and inserting Wei soldiers, not even many people in Wei knew how powerful it was.
However, he did not expect that the Wei soldiers' night attack on Handan was completely unexpected by Han Gongting, so that when the Wei soldiers entered the city, the three real powerful officials in Korea, such as Li Hou Han Wu, Kang Gong Han Hu, and Zhuang Gong Han Geng, all Subconsciously considering their own safety and political status, they did not think about how to repel the Wei soldiers. As a result, the Korean soldiers who struggled to resist the Wei army in the city did not receive systematic command and support, so that they retreated steadily and watched the Wei army helplessly. Seize the streets and important facilities in the city one by one.
After about a tea hour, Ma She, the Shang Valley guard, bumped into Han Wangran on the way. The latter was evacuating under the protection of Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu, and happened to collide with Ma She's Shang Valley army.
I remember that after seeing the reinforcements from Ma She, who was guarding the upper valley, Lihou Han Wu, Kang Gong Han Hu and Han Wangran were all in high spirits. After all, the arrival of Ma She's army freed them from worries and no longer had to worry too much about being attacked by Wei soldiers. Chase.
But on the other hand, Li Hou Han Hu and Kang Gong Han Hu were also a little worried about what Ma She would do when he took the opportunity. After all, they did not have many troops around them at the moment. If Ma She took the opportunity to attack Qing Jun, what would happen to the soldiers and horses around them? Will he be Shanggujun’s opponent?
Therefore, they ordered Ma She to meet alone on the grounds that "King Han was frightened".
After receiving this order, Ma She actually knew the little thoughts in the hearts of Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu, but due to the critical situation at hand, he could only pretend not to see it.
So he handed over the command of the army to his deputy general and took his son Ma Kuo to see Han Wangran.
"Ma She knocks before your Majesty. Rescue came too late. He deserves death for his crime."
Not far from Han Wangran's horse, Ma She got off his horse, knelt on the ground with his son Ma Kuo, and confessed with a heavy face.
When he saw Ma She, Han Wangran was actually a little excited.
After all, Ma She was an old minister who was highly valued by his grandfather and father, two generations of Korean kings, so he was loyal to him. Of course, for this reason, this commander-in-chief, who could be called a national scholar, was exiled to Shanggu in disguise all the year round and was ordered to You are not allowed to return to Handan without permission.
But it is a pity that the current situation does not allow Han Wangran to show joy. After all, he is surrounded by people from Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu. Ma She and his son alone cannot safely rescue him.
Therefore, Han Wangran could only pretend to be frightened and uneasy.
Seeing Han Wangran trembling and speechless, Ma She didn't care. After all, this king had always been weak and timid, and the reason why he was loyal to this king was only because he was deeply loved by two generations of previous kings and had a personal relationship with Han Wangran. Charisma doesn't actually matter.
Compared with Han Wangran, Li Hou Han Wu was much calmer and calmer at this moment. He personally stepped forward to help Ma She, who said: "The king was frightened and uneasy because of the Wei army's attack on the city. Don't be surprised by General Ma She..." …How many troops will the general bring this time?”
Ma She stood up with the support of Lihou Hanwu. Although he was answering Lihou Hanwu's question, he still faced Han Wangran with his hands and fists clasped and respectfully replied: "This time I bring 30,000 infantry and cavalry and 3,000 floor troops. A total of thirty-three thousand."
Seeing Ma She's actions, Li Hou Han Wu couldn't help but feel a little unhappy, but at this time, he was more happy. After all, there were 33,000 Shanggu troops protecting them. Even if the Wei soldiers came to pursue them, they would not be in any danger. .
At this time, Ma She turned to look at Lihou Hanwu and Kanggong Han Hu, and asked: "Lihou, Kanggong, I wonder what the current situation is in Handan?"
After hearing this, Li Hou Han Wu and Kang Gong Han Hu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. After all, they were only focused on escaping just now, and how could they care about the situation in Handan City.
Therefore, Li Hou Han Wu had no choice but to vaguely explain the general situation, which made Ma She frown.
