The plan was decided, Ma Chao summoned Pang De, Chou Ge, Ma Dai and others at night to withdraw their troops and return to Fufeng, leaving Dong Zhuo with the good impression that the Ma family were just wage earners and did not take advantage of the imperial court.
And secretly, Ma Chao quietly gave the shadows scattered in Fufeng, Xinping, and Beidi counties a task, which was to deceive people's hearts.
Whether it is an iron bull thrown into the sea and fished out with words on its belly; or a bronze man cast and looking very much like Ma Chao; or whether it is simply bragging about not paying taxes and paying off the fortune-tellers to give the Ma family a halo of magic horses, all at the same time Take action and try to make people's hearts float, just like the Ma family.
At the same time, Jia Xu also secretly used the children who had been favored by the Ma family to spread the songs about Qiang chaos, Liangzhou mourning, twenty years of peace, and Fubo Ding's descendants.
Originally, there was no political leaning in these nursery rhymes, but with the situation of the Eastern Qiang tribe in Chen Bing Beidi and Xinping counties, some people suddenly guessed the meaning of this nursery rhyme: The Dongqiang tribe is about to attack Liangzhou in a big way again.
Doesn't this just correspond to the first two sentences of the nursery rhyme?
The second two sentences must be verses that can quell the rebellion in Liangzhou.
Twenty years of peace are about the Fubo of the Han Dynasty.
General Ma Yuan's achievements in pacifying the barbarians for twenty years, and the last sentence obviously refers to the descendants of General Fubo, who can also pacify the Qiang and Hu rebellions.
As a result, the people of Fufeng, Xinping, and Beidi counties all set their sights on Ma's family in Xiliang, and suddenly discovered that after the arrival of this army, they did not commit any crimes in autumn and protected the country and the people.
In particular, the eldest son of the Ma family went deep into the Qiang and Hu hinterland and made great contributions to the stability of the Han frontier.
At this time, the voice of supporting the Ma family became louder and louder.
It was not only widely sung in the Liangzhou area, but also spread across the Chang'an court to Jizhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Soochow and other regions.
The power of the Ma family was suddenly revealed in front of everyone.
The princes from all over the world also set their sights on the Ma family in Xiliang.
At this time, Jia Xu was already on his way to Chang'an.
The difference from the last time is that this time, among the Xiliang cavalry who guarded him, in addition to the regular Xiliang athletes, there were also Fifty Shadows: They went here to follow the young master's instructions and set up eyes in Chang'an.
Pay attention to the dynamics of the court.
The army also returned to Fufeng after Jia Xu set off.
During this expedition, the Xiliang cavalry was not damaged.
On the contrary, they brought back no less than five thousand bandits.
As for supplies, there aren't many.
Firstly, these thieves themselves don't have a single coin, and secondly, because Xinping County will be under their own rule in the future, there is no need to make money from Xinping County.
During this battle, Ma Chao not only gained a deep understanding of the art of war, but also deeply understood Sun Tzu's words: "Anyone who raises an army of 100,000, marches out for thousands of miles, pays for the people, pays tribute to the public, spends thousands of gold a day, causes commotion both inside and outside, is lazy on the road, and cannot do anything, there are 700,000 families."
Ma Chao had just understood this sentence before, but now when he saw Meng Da's face as if he was his dead father, he couldn't help but wailed in his heart: Damn it, this is not a war, it's clearly a war.
I'm burning money Before, Ma Teng had a little money, then Ma Chao made a lot of money, and finally, Fufeng County's savings were added.
Ma Chao had no concern at all about military spending.
But now, with only ten thousand Xiliang cavalry attacking, and it was a quick battle with almost no damage, Mengda couldn't bear it anymore.
At this time, Ma Chao learned a painful lesson.
As long as this period of calm comes, he must first stop the work of the arsenal and produce a few flagship products to drive the economic growth of the Ma family.
However, overall, this battle is still brilliant and great, and especially, it can be said that it is very timely.
After the prisoners were reorganized, their combat effectiveness was tested and their morale was greatly boosted.
From then on, these prisoners became more determined to work for the Ma family to the death.
In fact, regarding military reform, this issue does not seem to be very difficult in Ma Chao's imagination.
Countless revolutionary predecessors in Ma Chao's previous life have already set shining examples.
After being sorted out by several academics, a complete chain has been formed.
First of all, the members of the army must be the working people.
Then the leaders should provide ideological education to these soldiers in a simple and easy-to-understand manner.
At the same time, they should carry out vigorous land reform so that all members of the army can enjoy certain material achievements.
Finally, there should be various guidance and inspiration. , such as indicting landlords and old wealth, remembering hardships and thinking about sweetness, and other programs with extremely high practical value.
During this period, the propaganda agency must maintain high-intensity operation and be interspersed in various links.
If this is done, the cohesion of the army will basically reach an unprecedented height.
As far as Ma Chao knows, there were indeed several armies that were successfully shaped like this.
In addition to being extremely tough in combat, their military discipline was also ridiculously good.
Judging from countless examples in later generations, soldiers' understanding of discipline has reached the level of human instinct.

To such an extent, many people would rather die than invade the common people.
If we compare the military models, the Yue Family Army can almost be regarded as bandits compared with them.
However, Ma Chao found that he didn't seem to have the ability.
First of all, he couldn't do ideological education.
He didn't have the ability to create an advanced ideological system.
At present, he could only launch a series of simple brainwashing activities to let these poor soldiers know that...
The Ma family gave them land, houses, wives, and money.
Without Ma Jiajun, you big-headed soldiers will become victims of the wars between princes in troubled times.
Not to mention your property, you won't even be able to save your life.
Fortunately, these big-headed soldiers are not very educated, and the content of Ma Chao's brainwashing is also correct.
Therefore, this group of people from the Ma family can be said to be loyal until death.
As for the imperial court, they have no such thing in their eyes.
Secondly, redistribution is unrealistic.
After all, the Ma family itself is the landlord class at this time.
If we talk about overthrowing the old wealthy landlords, the first person to be killed is the Ma family who owns the Ma family arsenal, Ma family farm, and Ma family ranch.
This doesn't work no matter what.
After thinking about it, Ma Chao's New Deal was to allocate those unclaimed lands to soldiers.
After all, the armies of the princes in the late Han Dynasty were not as powerful as the Japanese devils and the Kuomintang reactionaries, and their combat effectiveness was not as strong.
However, the last point is that publicity and campaigning must be carried out with great vigor.
Ma Chao is still very confident about this and feels it is very necessary.
Therefore, Ma Chao, who had nothing to do during this period, got some medals and wanted to give honor to the outstanding soldiers in this battle on the merit awarding platform.
After this, if Ma Chao takes them to rob or kidnap again, they won't have any doubts.
Even if Ma Chao wants to raise troops to rebel, these people will strongly support him Because, if you have breasts, you are a mother, and if you have big fists, you are a mother. s: A coquettish day has begun.
