Lu Bu left with the wolf riding camp, and Xice stayed in Chang'an.

On the one hand, it is to help him guard against those ministers of the DPRK and China, and don't let them make some moths behind their backs. When Lu Bu first came to Guanzhong, his foundation was not stable, and if there was a fire in the backyard, it would be very troublesome. The second is that the road to Xiliang is rugged, and the terrain in this area of Longxi is mountainous, and the mountain road on the way must not be bumpy, and the weak physique of the drama strategy is simply unbearable.

This time I went to Xiliang, ostensibly to recruit rebels, but in fact to negotiate Zhao'an.

Therefore, Lu Bu only brought two thousand wolf cavalry battalions with him.

A few days ago, news came from Jiang Jian of Tianshui County that Wang Guo, the leader of the thieves of the Xiliang rebels, had been killed in a war.

After the death of the kingdom, three forces were formed in the Liangzhou region, the Han Sui group in Jincheng, the Ma Teng group in Weigu, and the Song Jian group in Caohan.

Although Lu Bu hadn't been to Xiliang for a long time, he was always concerned about the situation in Liangzhou.

A qualified leader, seeing six ways and listening to all directions, this is the basic.

Han Sui, Ma Teng, and Song Jian are all Han Chinese, which also shows in disguise that today's Liangzhou is under the control of the Han people.

When the Han people are in power, it will be much easier.

Lu Bu took the wolf cavalry camp all the way over the mountains and mountains, first went to the Weigu area, and found Ma Teng, who was stationed here.

At that time, Lü Bu instigated the Dongqiang people to join the Liangzhou battlefield in order to contain the Western Liang rebels.

At first, Ma Teng was only a general of a small tribe in Dongqiang, but later with the continuous war with the Xiqiang people, Ma Teng's heroic performance and generous character quickly won the affirmation of most people, and his reputation continued to rise among the Qiang people.

Perhaps due to providence, during a march, the Dongqiang people were ambushed by the Xiqiang people, and the leader of the Dongqiang was also killed in that ambush battle.

The leader of Dongqiang died, and the soldiers under his command were in chaos. Only Ma Teng was in danger, commanding the sons of all ethnic groups and successfully breaking through.

After that, Ma Teng was naturally elected as the new leader.

On this day, Ma Teng was studying the battle strategy in the tent.

The topographic map spread on the desk, I don't know how many times he has flipped through it.

It's been three years.

Ma Teng sighed and rubbed his somewhat swollen head with his hands, he was really tired.

In the past three years, there have been countless battles of all sizes, with casualties everywhere. There are Han people, there are Qiang people, there are innocent people, and there are soldiers who fought on both sides......

He didn't want to fight anymore, and the blood and sacrifice of the soldiers under his command were enough.

At this time, the curtain was lifted, and the silver-armored young man standing at the door looked at Ma Teng and shouted excitedly: "Father! ”

Hearing this familiar voice, Ma Teng's heart jumped suddenly, and following the voice, the young man standing at the door had red lips and white teeth, full of heroic spirit.

Ma Teng rubbed his eyes vigorously, and said a little stunned: "Meng Qi, why are you here?" I'm not dreaming, am I? ”

Before Ma Chao could answer, a particularly tall figure appeared behind him, and said with a smile: "Brother Shoucheng, don't come to harm, do you remember Lu?" ”

Ma Teng saw Lu Bu, hurriedly got up from his position, and clasped his fists: "Villain Ma Teng, meet Wen Hou." ”

Don't look at Ma Teng is now the leader of the Dongqiang people, but the imperial court did not give him any official position. Therefore, in front of Lu Bu, he can't even be called the last general, so he can only call himself a 'villain'.

"Brother Shoucheng is polite, I heard that you have become the leader of the Dongqiang clan, Lu Mou came to congratulate."

When he heard about the Dongqiang army's garrison, Lu Bu only brought Ma Chao to come.

A few years ago, at the Zuogu Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony held by the Dongqiang people, Lu Bu can be said to be out of the limelight, and there are few Dongqiang soldiers who don't know Lu Bu, not to mention that he also has Ma Teng's son.

Therefore, Lu Bu was not hindered along the way, and easily arrived outside Ma Teng's tent.

Ma Teng got up and personally welcomed Lu Bu into the tent.

After some pleasantries, the two sat down.

"Wenhou came to Liangzhou, why didn't he notify him in advance, I would like to go to greet him in person, and I will do my best to meet the landlord."

Ma Teng said with a smile, and asked people to bring fruits and meat for Lu Bu to enjoy.

"They are all their own brothers, why do you need to be so polite." Lu Bu picked up the courgette, chewed it twice in his mouth, and laughed as well.

A sentence of his own brother invisibly brought him closer to Ma Teng.

After Lu Bu was full, Ma Teng returned to the topic: "Wen Hou came here, I don't know what happened. ”

He didn't believe that Lu Bu came to Liangzhou from thousands of mountains and rivers, just to chat with him.

"Brother Shoucheng, you and I are not outsiders, so I won't hide it from you. I brought more than 100,000 people from Luoyang into the customs, but there is only such a large area in the middle of the pass, and I can't accommodate so many people. Therefore, I brought them to Liangzhou, hoping to settle down in the Tianshui area. ”

Lu Bu told Ma Teng the truth, anyway, this matter will not be hidden sooner or later.

After hearing this, Ma Teng was immediately in awe, and said 'Wenhou Gaoyi'.

After saying this, Ma Teng seemed to have thought of something, suddenly frowned, and said to Lu Bu: "Wen Hou, I'm afraid this is not appropriate." ”

The city on this side of Liangzhou has low walls and extremely poor defensive capabilities, and it is easy to break through from the outside with a slight army of 10,000 or 20,000.

What's more, Liangzhou is not stable now, the situation is turbulent, and battlefield battles have become commonplace. If those Luoyang people settle here, they will only be reduced to fish and meat on the chopping board of others, to be slaughtered by others.

Ma Teng could have looked at Lu Bu's face and not robbed them, but what about Han Sui and Song Jian?

He couldn't guarantee it.

Ma Teng can have this intention, Lu Bu is still very happy in his heart, at least what he saved at the beginning was not a white-eyed wolf.

"I'm here to get the three of you to stop and negotiate peace."

Lu Bu explained that in order for Baixin in the state to live and work in peace and contentment, the most basic prerequisite is that Liangzhou must first be stabilized, and there will be no more war smoke.

These words went to Ma Teng's heart.

After all these years of fighting, he is already tired, but he also has his own concerns.

After the death of so many soldiers, the hatred between the two sides has long been buried deep in each other's hearts. If you stop here, you will not only be disappointed by the dead soldiers, but also difficult to explain to the orphans and widows in the clan.

So, Ma Teng hesitated.

Moreover, the matter of striking the military and negotiating peace involves all aspects and is quite complicated. He couldn't say a word clearly, even if he was willing to negotiate peace, Han Sui and Song Jian might not be willing to do it.

"Wen Hou, this matter has a lot to do with it. It's hard for me to make the decision, I'm afraid I will have to consult with the elders of the clan and the heroes of the various clans before I can give you an answer. ”

Lu Bu didn't expect to finish this matter in a day or two.

In addition to visiting Ma Teng in person, he also asked people to send invitations, in the name of the right general of the Han Dynasty, to invite Han Sui and Song Jian to come to Tianshui County to negotiate and discuss.

Salute first, then soldier.
