Tianshui County Ji County, Zhao Kuangyin's mansion.
"Qi Yu Lord, Ma Teng's army has been encamped in Jieting, Ma Teng, Ma Chao and his son took more than 100 horsemen to Xinyang County to visit Han Sui, please make a decision."
Early in the morning, Zhao Kuangyin's scouts entered Ji County and reported to Zhao Kuangyin.
"Continue to monitor closely" Zhao Kuangyin nodded, waved his hand to signal the scout to retreat, and at the same time ordered to summon Chang Yuchun, Zhang Lu and other civil and military forces to discuss countermeasures.
In the middle of winter last year, Han Sui led 27,000 men and horses under his command, escorted more than 30,000 stones, grains and grass, and left Xiping when the weather was cold, and went around a big circle from Didao and Lintao to defect to Zhao Kuangyin, and was warmly welcomed by Zhao Kuangyin.
But what kind of character is Zhao Kuangyin, how can he not see through Han Sui's true purpose of coming to vote for himself, it is nothing more than that Han Sui feels that he has few soldiers and weak forces, and he can still support his troops and respect himself when he is protected by himself.
If Han Sui went to vote for Liu Bei, Cao Cao or even the Xiongnu Temujin, he would definitely be merged and reorganized in the end, which was unacceptable to Han Sui, who was seeking to stand on his own.
However, Zhao Kuangyin also knew that his situation was not good, so he played Yang Su and Zhu Yuanzhang, played a trick of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and grabbed a piece of territory from under Zhu Yang's hands.
If there was no accident, Zhu Yang would definitely turn around and aim the spearhead at him, so Zhao Kuangyin also needed to use Han Sui's strength to resist Zhu Yang.
Huddle together for warmth, which is good for both parties.
It was precisely because of the same purpose that Zhao Kuangyin accepted Han Sui's refuge and asked him to be stationed in Xinyang County, eighty miles away from Tianshui, to guard his own portal.
But under the superficial harmony, the two have their own ghosts, Zhao Kuangyin has never given up the plan to annex Han Sui's tribe all the time, but Han Sui is also an old treacherous and cunning person, and he is wary of Zhao Kuangyin everywhere, so he can't find any opportunity for a while.
Since he couldn't swallow Han Sui for the time being, Zhao Kuangyin retreated and sent Yan Pu to Xinyang to borrow grain.
Although Han Sui's soldiers and horses were only 27,000 people, they had nearly 300,000 stone of grain, which was the family foundation that he and Ma Teng had accumulated for many years in Xiliang, but they were mercilessly swept to Xinyang by Han Sui.
After many recruitments, Zhao Kuangyin's soldiers and horses have now reached 60,000 people, controlling Wei County and Tianshui, and the grain and grass have also been a little tight during this time, so Zhao Kuangyin's bottom line is to "borrow" at least 100,000 stone of grain from Han Sui.
Yan Pu came to Xinyang to meet Han Sui with Zhao Kuangyin's explanation, said a basket of good things, and asked Han Sui to borrow 100,000 stone of grain.
But Han Sui said that people don't do things, what he said was better than what he sang, but he prevaricated for various reasons, and finally lent Zhao Kuangyin 30,000 stone of grain in a stingy manner, and refused to borrow it again "Han Sui Pifu is really a villain with a small amount of energy, no wonder he can do something to betray his brother, sooner or later" Zhao Kuangyin listened to Yan Pu's report, and couldn't help but scold angrily.
It's just that Zhu Yang has already won a decisive victory over Ma Teng, and he may wave his troops to kill him at any time, so Zhao Kuangyin has no choice but to suppress the anger in his heart and temporarily maintain his face with Han Sui.
In the past few days, he suddenly got the information that Ma Teng had given up Wuwei and defected to Liu Wei in the east, and he was going to cross the border from Tianshui, which made Zhao Kuangyin immediately tense his nerves and sent a large number of scouts to spy on the whereabouts of Ma Jiajun.
"The cavalry of the Ma family is vertical and horizontal, even the Huns do not dare to attack it directly, if it can be annexed to the command and handed over to Chang Yuchun, why not be afraid of Zhu Yang coming" Seeing Ma Teng leave Liangzhou and enter Yongzhou, all the way through Longxi and Nan'an into Tianshui, Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help but salivate.
But Ma Tenghu's power is still there, although more than half of the troops have been lost, there are still about 30,000 cavalry and nearly 10,000 infantry under his command, and Zhao Kuangyin's current strength can't be eaten at all.
Zhang Lu's Wudoumi New Army has limited combat effectiveness, and if it is forcibly blocked by going out of the city, it will not be counterattacked, so Zhao Kuangyin had no choice but to use his crooked brain.
"It's easy to dodge the open gun, it's hard to defend against the dark arrow, and the people have left a name and a goose to keep a voice, no matter what, Zhao has to pluck a few hairs from your Ma Teng" It didn't take much effort, and Chang Yuchun, Zhao Pu, Hu Yanqing, Hu Yanzhuo, Yan Pu, Yang Ang and others, who were summoned, came to the conference hall to discuss countermeasures.
Hu Yanzan, Zhang Lu, Yang Ren and others led 20,000 troops to be stationed in Linwei, the administrative center of Guangwei County, and Tianshui was a horn, so naturally they could not come to participate in the military meeting.
After Shi Li's greetings, Zhao Kuangyin sat down and went straight to the point; "According to the scout's report, Ma Teng and his son have arrived at Jieting, and led more than 100 horsemen to Xinyang to visit Han Sui early this morning, what do you think?"
Zhao Pu was overjoyed when he heard this, and he bowed his hand and said: "Great, this is a God-given opportunity, our army can take advantage of the competition between cranes and mussels, and the fisherman will benefit."
Chang Yuchun is the only person under Zhao Kuangyin who can enjoy the treatment of sitting, listening to Zhao Pu's words, a pair of fierce eyes flashed with a soaring murderous aura: "What kind of profit method, let's listen carefully" Zhao Puchao Chang Yuchun arched his hand and said respectfully: "General Boren, don't be in a hurry, and listen to me, Zhu Yang's army is eyeing Ma Teng, Ma Jiajun is not rushing day and night to flee for his life, but Ma Teng's father and son stationed their soldiers and horses in the street pavilion, and then rode Jian Cong to Xinyang to visit Han Sui, why did he come?"
"Borrowing Grain" As soon as Zhao Pu's voice fell, Yan Pu was the first to answer, "Han Sui swept away all the grain and grass of the Xiliang Army, it is estimated that Ma Teng is seriously short of food at the moment, and their father and son rode lightly to visit Han Sui, and nine times out of ten they went to borrow grain." ” Zhao Pu gave Yan Pu a thumbs up and praised with a smile: "What Brother Yan said is very true, this Ma Teng went to visit Han Sui naturally to borrow food, and definitely not to drink tea and catch up on the old days; It's not to seek justice, otherwise their father and son wouldn't have gone without soldiers. ” After a pause, Zhao Pu then asked a question: "So, do you think Han Sui will lend Ma Teng grain based on his past feelings?"
"Hmph, Han Sui's popularity is as small as a mouse, he is a person who takes advantage of it and doesn't have enough, I want him to spit out what he eats, unless the sun comes out of the west" Zhao Kuangyin scolded angrily, and did not hide his disgust for Han Sui.
Zhao Pu smiled: "Isn't this right, Ma Teng's father and son borrowed grain, but Han Sui refused to borrow it, won't this contradiction come out?"
"You mean that Han Sui will have a conflict with Ma Teng," Chang Yuchun asked with interest as he stroked the thick beard at the corner of his lips.
"It's not just a conflict, I'm afraid that Han Sui will make a move on Ma Teng" Zhao Pu made an analysis with confidence, "Han Sui is weak, with less than 30,000 troops, and he wants to expand his strength in every dream."
And Ma Teng's father and son entered the tiger's den alone, how could Han Sui let go of this opportunity to get rid of Ma Teng and then strengthen his strength" "Well, what Zeping said is very true" Zhao Kuangyin agreed with Zhao Pu's analysis, but he was still a little puzzled, "What is the reason why he dared to let Ma Teng's father and son enter Han Sui's wolf's den to adventure?"
Yan Pu is a person from Yongliang, so he has a better understanding of the situation in the Western Regions, and arched his hand: "Ma Teng and Han Sui have been friends for many years, and they are about to bow down, and it is estimated that Ma Teng thinks that Han Sui will not harm himself."
Moreover, Ma Teng's eldest son Ma Chao has the courage of ten thousand people, and he is the god of war in the eyes of Qianghu, Xiongnu and others, it is said that martial arts are not under Lu Bu, I think it must be these two reasons that make Ma Teng dare to venture into Han Sui's lair. ” Zhao Pu smiled and said: "This Ma Teng is too sincere, so he will always be in Han Sui's place."
Even though Ma Chao's martial arts are outstanding, but his two fists are difficult to defeat with four hands, and the heroes can't stand the crowd, Ma Teng's father and son entered Xinyang County this time, but they are afraid that they can't get in and out." coughed and continued to analyze: "If Han Sui kills Ma Teng, our army will bring the Ma family army over in the name of avenging Ma Teng's father and son."
If Ma Chao slashed Han Sui with a sword, we can also incorporate Han Sui's troops, and then block the city gate to get rid of Ma Teng and his son.
If Ma Han loses both, then it would be even better, we can pick up a big bargain without spending a single soldier."
"What if Han Sui refuses to make a move on Ma Teng" Hu Yanzhuo, who had been silent, clasped his fists and saluted, raising his own questions.
Zhao Pu smiled and said: "We can add fuel to the fire, ask General Boren to send troops immediately, go around in a circle and march to Xinyang from the direction of Jieting, and attack Xinyang with great fanfare under the banner of the Ma Jiajun."
If this is done, Han Sui will definitely turn against Ma Teng, and our army will take advantage of the merger between Ma and Han to reap the benefits of the fisherman."
Zhao Kuangyin and Chang Yuchun high-fived together and praised: "The plan for peace is very good, and our army will act according to the plan" The plan stopped, Chang Yuchun and Hu Yanqing, Hu Yanzhuo ordered 5,000 cavalry, 10,000 infantry under the banner of Ma Teng, from the east gate of Tianshui out of the city, under the guidance of the indigenous guide, to the direction of the street pavilion, to go halfway around and go around the circle to kill Ben Xinyang.
Although Tianshui is seven or eight hundred miles away from Liangzhou, the wind and sand are still very large, especially in the spring season.
The wind and sand swept in, and it almost made people unable to open their eyes.
Seeing that the food was getting scarcer and smaller, the worried Ma Teng ordered to set up camp in the street pavilion, ordered Qin Liangyu and Ma Dai to take Ma Chao with him, and led one hundred and ten followers out of the camp to Xinyang City, seventy miles to the south, to borrow grain from Han Sui.

Before leaving, Qin Liangyu persuaded hard, saying that Han Sui was a person with wolf ambitions, and borrowing grain from him was tantamount to seeking skin with a tiger.
However, Ma Teng believed that his side's food was getting less and less, and if he could not reach Wuguan as planned, after the lack of food, the army's morale would collapse and fall into a state of no return.
But Ma Teng thinks that he has been friends with Han Sui for decades, maybe Han Sui will not be so ruthless, not to mention that he already has half of the food in his hands, maybe Han Sui can give himself some food in the past, which will make the life of his own people much better.
Qin Liangyu suggested that Ma Teng bring more soldiers and horses, but Ma Teng thought that this would arouse Han Sui's suspicion and backfire, so he insisted on only taking Ma Chao to visit Han Sui.
Qin Liangyu had no better way, so he could only agree, and repeatedly told Ma Chao to be vigilant and not to believe Han Sui's words. t1706231537:
