Wang Can issued an order and Xinping County was immediately placed under martial law.
Immediately, Wang Can sent officers and soldiers to search for traces of Ma Chao and Ma Xiu, but no news was obtained. No one expected that Ma Chao and his party were hiding in the corner disguised as beggars, so no matter how they searched, they could not find Ma Chao and Ma Xiu.
Two days later and still nothing.
At this time, Wang Can's passion has been completely exhausted.
The thought of killing Ma Chao and Ma Xiu gradually faded away, because he still had important things to do. Compared to Ma Chao and Ma Xiu, two little shrimps who couldn't make waves, Han Sui also led more than 30,000 soldiers.
He firmly occupied Longxi leading to Xiliang, so Wang Can had to destroy Han Sui in order to pacify Xiliang.
In the hall, Wang Can brought Fa Zheng, Guo Jia and Lu Meng.
The four guests and host sat down, and Wang Can asked: "Amon, how is the search for Ma Xiu and Ma Chao going?"
Lu Meng looked bitter and said helplessly: "The disciples have sent people to scrape the ground three feet and search one by one, but still no progress has been made. Ma Chao and Ma Xiu seemed to have suddenly disappeared, and no trace of them can be found anymore."
Wang Can said solemnly: "So, Ma Chao and Ma Xiu can't be found?"
Lu Meng gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement.
He is not good at these trivial matters at all, but Wang Yue has gone to the martial arts academy to teach, and Shi A is in charge of the overall situation in Chengdu, so there is no one around Wang Can to deal with this matter. Lu Meng continued: "The city gates are prohibited from entering and exiting these two days.
, the people in the city have complained a lot and expressed their dissatisfaction. Many people who make a living by collecting firewood or collecting medicine have complaints, and other people also hope to open the city gate."
Wang Can raised his eyebrows and said: "In that case, open the city gate and let the people come in and out. However, you send a few soldiers who know Ma Yunlu, Ma Xiu and Ma Chao to guard the city gate and check all people leaving Xinping County.
People. In this way, it is possible to search Ma Chao and Ma Xiu."
"promise!"
After hearing this, Lu Meng agreed.
Immediately afterwards, Guo Jia said: "My lord, although Ma Chao and Ma Xiu can't be found, I think the impact will not be big due to my humble position."
Wang Can asked: "Fengxiao, what do you think?"
Guo Jia said loudly: "Even if Ma Xiu and Ma Chao escape Xinping County, they can only go to Han Sui. Our ultimate goal is Han Sui. As long as we defeat Han Sui, we can catch them all and get rid of Ma Chao and Ma Xiu."
Fazheng followed up and said: "My lord, the scouts have sent news that Han Sui has led his troops to retreat towards Huaili County and is retreating to Longxi. They have been retreating for a while. If we continue to stay in Xinping County, it will be delayed even more
time. Therefore, I suggest sending troops immediately. As for Ma Chao and Ma Xiu, it will not be possible."
After a pause, Fazheng continued: "As Mr. Guo said, Ma Chao and Ma Xiu will definitely defect to Han Sui. By then, it will not be too late to catch them all."
Wang Can nodded and said: "Well, our current focus is to defeat Han Sui. As for Ma Chao and Ma Xiu, they are just incidental people. If you can kill them, kill them. If you can't kill them, put them aside for the time being. Xiaozhi, you send
People issued arrest warrants and posted notices in various counties to arrest Ma Chao and Ma Xiu. This would also prevent them from showing their faces publicly."
"promise!"
Fazheng nodded and agreed.
Guo Jia said: "My lord, Xinping County is short of magistrates, so we have to appoint another one."
Wang Can replied: "I have sent people to handle this matter. I will temporarily let the county magistrate of Xinping County act as the county magistrate to maintain the stability of Xinping County. When the scouts return the news of Xinping County to Chengdu, Zhong Degong will naturally
Appoint a new county magistrate to take over."
After finishing speaking, Wang Can looked at Guo Jia and the others and said, "Let's wait for one more day. Regardless of whether we can capture Ma Chao and Ma Xiu, we will leave Xinping County tomorrow and send troops to exterminate Han Sui."
Next, Wang Can discussed with the three people the strategy against Han Sui.
It took a long time before the three of them were allowed to leave.
Guo Jia and Fa Zheng went to the place where they lived, but Lu Meng left the county government and went straight to the city gate.
The city gates were not opened for two days, which had a certain impact on the lives of the people. Therefore, Lu Meng directly asked the soldiers to open the city gates and let the people in the city leave. At the same time, Lu Meng sat at the city gate and carefully examined the people who left Xinping County one by one.
, see if Ma Chao, Ma Xiu and Ma Dai are involved.
All day long, Lu Meng was at the city gate.
However, he led his soldiers to pay careful attention to everyone who left, but found nothing.
In fact, after Ma Chao and Ma Xiu evaded the search, they did not leave and were still hiding in the city. If they did not leave the city, Lu Meng would certainly not be able to find Ma Chao and Ma Xiu.
Ma Chao and Ma Xiu evaded arrest and no longer worried.
As long as they can survive, it will have no impact if they continue to hide in the city, so Ma Chao and his party are still in the city.
This approach made Lu Meng tired for a whole day without any effect. In the evening, Lu Meng ordered the soldiers to close the city gate and go back to rest.
The next day, Wang Can led his troops and left Xinping County.
During this period, Wang Can had already arranged things in Xinping County, so he left directly. For Ma Chao, Wang Can's departure was a blessing from heaven.
Wang Can left, and they were completely out of danger.
After the army left Xinping County, they went straight to Huaili County to pursue Han Sui.
Although Wang Can led the army to rush forward quickly, Han Sui was still far behind and could not catch up. Because when Wang Can led the army to Xinping County, Han Sui had already changed direction and rushed towards Huaili. And Wang Can was still there.
They stayed in Xinping County for more than three days and were even left far behind by Han Sui.
When Wang Can arrived in Huaili County, Han Sui had already bypassed him and headed straight to his hometown, Longxi.
After Huaili County was occupied by Lu Meng, it was already branded as Yizhou.
Wang Can's army replenished food, grass and equipment in Huaili County, and then continued on its way. Days like this continued. When Wang Can's army arrived at Chencang and accepted the surrender of Chencang's guard, Han Sui's envoy suddenly arrived to meet him.
Meet Wang Can.
Han Sui sent an envoy, which surprised Wang Can.
In the main tent of the Chinese army, Wang Can is sitting on the main seat of the tent. Below, civil and military personnel are arranged on both sides.
Zhao Yun, Chen Dao, Dian Wei, Dian Man, Lu Meng and others were full of murderous intent, with grim expressions on their faces.
In the center of the tent, stood a seven-foot-tall middle-aged man. This middle-aged man was wearing a navy blue robe and an ancient crown. He bowed respectfully to Wang Can. He held his head high and looked at him from the corner of his eye.
The civil servants and generals under Fan Wangcan's tent had no expression on their faces, but they were horrified in their hearts.
There are indeed many talents under Wang Can’s command!
In the center of the camp, Wang Can sat upright, his eyes like daggers, staring closely at the envoy sent by Han Sui, and said slowly: "Han Sui is arrogant and arrogant. He dared to resist my king's army. He is actually destroying himself. Now. Now
When the two armies were fighting, you took the initiative to join my king's army. Could it be that you were tired of living?"
The envoy raised his hands and said: "If the two armies are fighting and the envoy is not killed, does the King of Shu not even have such a big heart?"
Wang Can shouted: "A sharp-tongued man!"
After a pause, Wang Can smiled and said: "Forget it, tell me, why did Han Sui send you here?"
The messenger looked calm and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "To report to the King of Shu, my lord said that the King of Shu's army came to attack, and that he had defeated Ma Teng, killed Ma Dai, and wiped out the Ma clan. He is really brave and powerful, and the power of God cannot be offended. I
The Lord knows that he is invincible, so he is willing to surrender to the King of Shu, and asks the King of Shu to accept him."
Wang Can raised his eyebrows and asked: "How to bow your head and surrender?"
The envoy immediately said: "My lord respects the King of Shu as his lord, and there are certain conditions. Please ask the King of Shu to see it." After speaking, the envoy took a step forward, reached out and took out a piece of silk from his sleeve, and handed it to him.
He took the soldiers in the tent and asked them to give them to Wang Can for reading. Wang Can took the silk and took a rough look at the contents recorded on it.
"Asshole!"
Suddenly, Wang Can shouted loudly and threw the silk on the ground.
Wang Can was furious, with an angry expression on his face, and a pair of cold and scary eyes, and shouted: "What does Han Sui want to do? Could it be that you are here to entertain me?"
