Chapter 56: Stratagems, Kisses, and Crops
Ma Chao thought about it, and always felt that this matter, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that it was still a little suspicious: a few days after he returned to Fufeng County, Li Kan and Cheng Yin attacked him, if this had nothing to do with his monthly trip outside the Saiwai, Ma Chao would not believe it if he was killed.
And listening to Cai Yan's meaning, Li Kan and Cheng Yin also attacked in the past two days. In other words, these guys came over as soon as they returned on their front feet......
'Li Kan, Cheng Yin'......' Ma Chao thought about the history carefully, and suddenly remembered that Li Kan and Cheng Yin were Han Sui's subordinates, although they were not known as monarchs and ministers, but they would follow their reputations, but they were real.
The eight horsemen of the Xiliang Banner are the eight soldiers and horses under the command of Han Sui in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, respectively: Liang Xing, Hou Xuan, Cheng Yin, Li Kan, Zhang Heng, Cheng Yi, Ma Wan, and Yang Qiu. Among them, Li Kan and Cheng Yin were the first to follow Han Sui to make trouble. The other six are all on one side. Although these six people recognized Han Sui's status, they had no subordinate relationship with Han Sui. Even among them, Li Kan, Yang Qiu, Cheng Yi and others did not accept Han Sui at all, and only served the Xiliang Hao Xiongma Chao in history.
And now, when Li Kan and Cheng Yin just returned from Saiwai, they sent troops to Fufeng County, if there was no shadow of Han Sui, Ma Chao would not believe it.
After thinking about everything carefully, the clues in my mind became clearer and clearer: first of all, it can be determined that Han Sui had a spy in Fufeng County, and after learning the news that Ma Chao's lone army had gone deep into the hinterland of the Qiang people, he specially sent Yan Xing to unite the three tribes of Heishui, Huangyang, and Yak to besiege and kill Ma Chao, intending to cut off Ma Teng's big arm. Subsequently, Han Sui may have secretly encircled Li Kan and Cheng Yin, and instructed the two to seize Fufeng County after Ma Tengxing assisted Ma Chao. And the Tieqiang Order in the hands of Han Sui's daughter is probably the hole card for Yan Xing to deal with Ma Teng's reinforcements!
In this way, they were interlocked, not only annihilating the Xiliang Ma family in one fell swoop, but also seizing Fufeng County. It's a seamless, brilliant strategy!
The title of 'Nine Songs of the Yellow River' is indeed worthy of its name!
If it weren't for his mistake, he would have broken Yan Xing's army in one fell swoop. And make Ma Teng's army go back quickly, then I'm afraid that at this moment, Fufeng County has already fallen into the hands of Han Sui!
Thinking of this, Ma Chao suddenly couldn't lie down, struggling to remember. But Cai Yan saw Ma Chao like this, how could he let him stay?
"Brother Chao, what are you going to do?"
"I want to go to the city walls to see how the battle is going......"
Cai Yan hurriedly held down Ma Chao, but although Ma Chao was weak, he was heavy after all, and Cai Yan was just a little girl who had just developed, and compared with Ma Chao, she was almost less than half of Ma Chao. Ma Chao suddenly struggled to get up, how could Cai Yan hold it down? Especially Ma Chao was still tossing back and forth, which made Cai Yan even more embarrassed.
Just when Ma Chao was tossing again, Cai Yan didn't hold it down, and flashed to Ma Chao. And coincidentally, the cherry mouth happened to touch Ma Chao's mouth, and the knot was connected with a strong kiss.
At this moment, Ma Chao and Cai Yan stared wide-eyed, looking confused and at a loss, and even, Ma Chao was still in chaos, so he naturally experienced the wonderful touch of Cai Yan's soft little figure lying on his body, and the faint girlish fragrance came into his nose, which made Ma Chao feel stiff. In the end, Ma Chao couldn't help but stick out his tongue and lick Cai Yan's lips...... And Cai Yan blinked his eyes, only then did he react suddenly, exclaimed, and immediately felt that his face was as red as a soldering iron, hurriedly threw down Ma Chao, twisted his little buttocks and ran away without a trace.
And Ma Chao, who was stunned, fell into a blank in his whole mind, and the sentence that jumped back and forth in his mind was: 'Brother's first kiss is gone, brother's first kiss is gone'......
In the end, the product seemed to have finally come to his senses, pursed his lips and muttered: "How can you say that my brother is also a gentleman, it seems that my brother will not suffer a loss in this matter!" It's just that I didn't expect that this little girl's mouth is quite soft and sweet......."
Shameless, shameless!
But who makes himself the protagonist of the crossing? This kind of good thing, if it doesn't fall on his head, does he still make Hedong Wei Ning Wei Zhongdao a bastard who is cheap?
Thinking about it carefully, although Cai Yan is young, the temperament of the daughter of Confucianism and the fragrance of Hanmo is already rich, not to mention, Cai Yong's old man is still a big man of the scholar clan, if he really trains that little girl for a few years, he will marry back home in the future......
Well, in history, Cai Yan was quiet by nature, indisputable with the world, but also self-contained, and even, strong, and desperate wit and courage, she is really the number one choice for the best daughter-in-law. If you marry home and become a wife, it seems to be very good......
Thinking about this, Ma Chao suddenly felt that his head was beginning to sink again: although the battle situation outside still worried him, he was really unable to do it at this time, and Cai Yan said that the war outside was not tight or something, Ma Chao was in a daze and fell asleep again.
This sleep, I slept until the three poles of tomorrow's sun. When he opened his eyes and wanted to write about eating, Ma Chao found that Cai Yan did not come to his room again, leaving only an old slave to serve Ma Chao.
It's no wonder that there was such a beautiful scenery last night, even if the little girl is really interested in Ma Chao, she can't be kind to it. After all, although the late Eastern Han Dynasty did not have the imprisoned thinking of Zhu Lixue in the Ming Dynasty, and the atmosphere was relatively open, Cai Yan said that Potian was just a little girl, and she had no agreement with Ma Chao, so it was strange to be able to take care of Ma Chao again at this time!
During the conversation with the old slave, Ma Chao knew that this festival had passed, and it was the time for all things to recover.
It's just that Ma Chao was lying on the couch and couldn't move.
Outside the window, it was raining lightly...... The annoying spring rain, which keeps going on every once in a while, adds a little trouble and worry to Ma Chao.
It is a good time to plant, and it is time to plant the crops that you have brought over......
Before Ma Chao crossed, he was a technician at a farming base station, and the reason why he crossed over was that he was smashed by a bag of potatoes. After opening his eyes, Ma Chao found that not only did the bag of potatoes cross by himself, but also the seeds of other crops brought down by the bag of potatoes.
Ma Chao realized the value of these seed crops very early, you know, this time is the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the entire Eastern Han Dynasty and even the later Three Kingdoms era is just the initial stage of feudal society.
The reason why feudal society was an agrarian society was because there was simply not enough food to eat in that era! Whether it is in terms of grain output or grain varieties, or in terms of farming technology, it cannot be compared with Ma Chao's era!
Feudal society, if the people. If you are lucky, you will meet a good emperor who is wise and wise, and who is dedicated to the people, and you may also be treated lightly, and it is possible to feed the whole family when the wind and rain are good; But if you meet a superb emperor like Emperor Ling of Han, plus some natural and man-made disasters, the people will not be able to survive at all!
Especially now, now this damn late Eastern Han Dynasty!
Ma Chao clearly knows that at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the country will fall and the government will overlap. The dominance of foreign relatives, the dictatorship of eunuchs, years of warlord warfare, and natural and man-made disasters brought serious harm to the lives of the people at that time. According to the Later Han Dynasty, "the world is full of drought locusts, rivers overflow, the people are hungry and poor, and the roads are redundant, and there are hundreds of thousands of households." The plague of locusts is harmful, the water is still changing, the grain is not growing, the people have no shelter, the starvation is tied, and there are those who destroy the household. New Year's Day, a native of Hanoi, a woman and a husband; Henan people, husbands and women. ”
What a tragic situation it was: the fields were barren and overgrown with thorns and weeds, the mulberry forests were abandoned and covered with wild cocoons, the cities and farmhouses were burned down and smoked, and there was a dead silence after the drought and locust floods. Years of killing, plunder, famine, disease, and extinction have decimated the population, a tragic picture of the end of the world......
Yes, Ma Chao has never seen the tragedies of starvation and eating for thousands of miles, but he has at least seen the dolls of African refugees who are so hungry that they can only see the big heads, as well as those girls who look like pink skeletons...... Moreover, he knew that in feudal society, especially at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, these tragedies were really happening, and they were happening when Dong Zhuo was in power!
Why was there a Yellow Turban Uprising in previous years? That's because the peasants are starving and can't survive. Rebellion is death, and not rebellion is death!
They chose to rebel because they could at least have an extra bite to eat!
Thinking of this, Ma Chao's mood became more and more depressed, and he couldn't wait to get up immediately and sow those crops to feel at ease.
