As expected, Jia Xu and Fazheng came up with a plan that night.
Ma Chao took a look at it and felt that he was too wise and powerful.
This plan was a set of actions that was devised after considering all the situations under the Ma family's rule and using all the brain cells of Jia Xu and Fa Zheng.
At least, from Ma Chao's point of view, he felt that he could not come up with such a plan.
As a result, he became more determined to implement the three-province system.
In this plan, the troops were divided into three groups, led by Pang De, Chou Ge, and Yan Xing as the vanguard, and attacked the three counties of Anding, Nan'an, and Guangwei respectively.
Ma Chao personally led the army to respond later, and finally hunted in Tianshui County.
At that time, based on the situation, we will consider whether to conquer Longxi in one fell swoop and unify Yongzhou.
Among the three vanguards, Pang De's men had Fa Zheng as their military advisor, Chou Ge's men had Yang Fu as their military advisor, and Yan Xing's men had Meng Da as their military advisor.
The generals will work together to show their abilities.
Each of the three vanguards led 3,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry, for a total of 15,000 people.
Ma Chao led 10,000 cavalry to the rear, one to support and the other to serve as suspects, so that the governors of the three counties did not know the Ma family's intentions and the specific number of people.
As for the 5,000-strong heavy cavalry and heavy infantry team, Jia Xu and Fazheng did not know about it, and Ma Chao planned to use it as his last trump card and not use it.
This time, in addition to the necessary defensive forces, the Ma family called it an eagle fighting a rabbit and tried their best to send troops.
The distribution of baggage for the officers and men of the three armies was handed over to Han Feng.
He also secretly trusted the Eastern Qiang tribe and asked leaders such as Zhongjian and Rigugu Deji to mobilize warriors to the three counties and pretend to attack, thereby confusing the three counties and exerting pressure.
The whole plan was so intricate and majestic that it made Ma Chao's blood boil.
However, when it came to the regular meeting, Hua Xin put forward his opinion: "Young Master, soldiers have deceitful ways.
They are also the major affairs of the country and the place of life and death.
The way of survival and death must be carefully observed.
This time we raise troops, there is no way in the Spring and Autumn Period. .
Unless you are following orders, it is not possible to suppress the rebellion."
Ma Chao narrowed his eyes and was too lazy to answer Hua Xin's opinion.
There have been no righteous soldiers in troubled times since ancient times.
It does not mean that you can stand on the commanding heights of righteousness and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.
It's just that in the cold weapon period, standing on the commanding heights of justice can more or less boost the morale of soldiers.
Cold weapon period.
A war is actually a morale war.
When the number of people is basically equal and the generals' abilities are equal, the party with high morale can indeed defeat the party with low morale.
But in fact, it is the morale of the soldiers that determines it.
There are many combined factors.
It is indeed one of the factors that the soldiers of the three counties ensure the safety of the county and the people.
However, if the county guards are ignorant and unruly, the people are traitorous and alienated, or the guards are incompetent and useless, they will not be able to inspire the soldiers to unite.
Even if the three counties take advantage of the situation, they can only use some rhetoric when scolding the formation.
On the other hand, the Ma Family Army sent troops this time purely for the interests of the Ma Family.
But here's the thing.
The soldier hierarchy formulated by Ma Chao just pinched the morale of the soldiers.
It makes them eager for war, eager to win, and eager to seek more rights and benefits for themselves and their families.
When troops are dispatched, the morale of the soldiers has already reached its peak without any encouragement or mobilization.
In short, Ma Chao admitted that this battlefield was an aggressive war.
But behind the war, there is actually an economic war: Ma's famous distilled liquor, fried tea, Fu Feng paper, coal and other leading products are in urgent need of a larger and more profitable market.
Open up the channel between Yongzhou and Liangzhou to maximize economic benefits.
It is the fundamental purpose of every war crime and the most solid guarantee of victory.
Back then, well, in the future, when the Eight-Nation Allied Forces invaded the Qing government, they did not take any righteousness at all, but those idiots relied on their huge economic interests and powerful ships and artillery to defeat the incompetent Qing government. mother.
As for Ma Chao's motivation and behind-the-scenes purpose of sending troops this time, they were exactly the same as those of the Eight-Power Allied Forces.

Everyone present was naturally very human.
After Hua Xin finished speaking, without waiting for Jia Xu and Fazheng to say anything, Yang Fu was the first to say: "Ziyu is wrong.
Since the young master implemented military reforms, all the soldiers of the Ma family have The spirit of fighting is strong, and the morale of the Ma family is as high as the sun.
When the world is in turmoil, it would be unwise not to take what God has given to Yongzhou."
"Why did Yang Fu say such a thing about having no father and no king?"
Hua Xin looked angrily, stood up and cursed: "It is a treasonous and unethical act to invade the Han Dynasty's counties without any reason to eat the king's salary and be loyal to the king.
The Ma family is a famous minister. , I am loyal to the Han Dynasty, and my lord even wants to do what the Han Dynasty did.
You are here to confuse the people and talk about the way of heaven.
Don't you know it is shameful?"
As soon as Hua Xin said this, the meeting hall suddenly fell into silence.
Pang De and Ma Dai, who had a good relationship with Yang Fu, already had swords in their hands, and their anger was obvious.
"Hua Xin, I don't know anything about the Han Dynasty.
I only know that my life was given by the young master, and everything I have today is also given by the young master.
The young master said that there was a war, so I risked my life to kill that bird.
County.
What?
Bullshit justice court, I am here to tell you plainly, the brothers under me have the same idea as me, they have been waiting for war and promotion for a long time.
If you dare to say any more nonsense, I will chop you up now."
The ugly brother Huang Yuan is not as well-educated as Pang De and Ma Dai.
Hearing that Hua Xin means that he wants the Ma family to be the lackeys of the court and give up the great interests of the country in exchange for a bullshit reputation.
Especially the ugly brother is with Yang Fu has a close relationship, but he is reckless They have always respected scholars, but Yang Fu never regarded Brother Chou as rude and fell in love with him.
Brother Chou learned a lot from Yang Fu that he couldn't figure out.
At this time, he heard that Hua Xin dared to scold Yang Fu. , immediately jumped up, pointed at Hua Xin’s nose and cursed.
As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone in the meeting hall changed.
Hua Xin looked angry and angry; Yang Fu looked shocked and grateful; Pang De and Ma Dai were speechless.
It seemed that they supported Brother Chou's actions.
Zhang Ji and Meng Da were just prepared to persuade; while Yan Xing was indifferent.
Ma Chao even saw clearly that there was a sneer on the corner of Yan Xing's mouth.
What's even more annoying is the look in the eyes of Jia Xu and Fazheng: What do you mean?
You think Brother Chou's behavior was inspired by Brother Chou, not Song Jiang.
Ma Chao doesn't blame Jia Xu and Fazheng for their expressions.
Smart people think everything is smart.
Especially in today's situation, Ma Chao only needs to reprimand Brother Chou a few words, comfort Hua Xin with gentle words, and then link the Ma family's policies to serving the imperial court.
Even if Hua Xin understands Ma Chao's intention, he will not do anything.
You can't go against Ma Chao's majesty: after all, in order to win over you, he even reprimanded his own trusted generals.
No matter how ignorant you are, you won't be able to get along in the Ma Group.
Ma Chao doesn't want this.
His purpose is very clear and he requires a group's core values to be very clear.
All forces within the group must also strive in the same direction.
Except for Hua Xin and Yan Xing, everyone in the Ma Group knew Ma Chao's intentions.
Among them, Jia Xu and Fazheng are extremely intelligent and have hearts as deep as the ocean.
They don't mind the change of state at all.
They are loyal supporters of Ma Chao.
Pang De, Chou Ge, Ma Dai and Han Feng are Ma Chao's first team members. , a hard-core die-hard faction; Zhang Ji, Su Ze, You Chu, Fu Xun, Fu Qian, Meng Da, Meng Ta and others were either impressed by Ma Chao's general strategy, or they cared about the people, or they simply wanted to show their ambitions.
Over time, they gradually ignored Ma Chao.

His attitude was very secretive.
Unexpectedly, today's decision-making actually led to Hua Xin's true thoughts, which also led to the first ideological turmoil in the group.
Everyone was in various moods at this time, but Ma Chao didn't say a word.
After frowning, he slowly said: "Hua Shulang, the plan to send troops to Yongzhou was an idea made yesterday.
You didn't say anything yesterday. , but today I want to completely overturn the policy of Zhongshu Sheng.
Is it because you think that the advisers and generals under you are all clown playthings in your eyes?"
