Ma Teng already had some expectations for Ma Chao, but the first words Ma Chao said made Ma Teng immediately feel excited!

"My father was brave and brave, and tens of thousands of soldiers served under him. At the time of the Han drifting and the chaotic situation in Xiliang, it is the time for my father to show his ambitions! ”

Ma Chao's words were actually the source of Ma Teng's previous worries. But as soon as Ma Chao said this, the surging self-confidence turned the challenge into an opportunity, which undoubtedly gave Ma Teng a shot in the arm. This kind of demeanor really made Ma Teng feel a kind of joy in his heart!

"What my son said is good, but it is precisely because of this that I am worried about my father......" After the joy, Ma Teng suddenly fell into that worry again. After all, the troubles of thinking for many days have already made Ma Teng a little exhausted.

And Ma Chao naturally understood the reason for Ma Teng's reaction: Ma Teng started in Liangzhou, and Liangzhou is located on the border of Han and Qiang, and the people are fierce and not afraid of death. In particular, the Liangzhou cavalry is famous for its great courage and bravery. It has long been recorded in history that Longyou Jing rode across the world, and was known as "Liangzhou Horse, rampant in the world". When Qin Shi Huang got it, he swept away the six countries, and when Tang Taizong got it, he looked at the world. However, it is such a heroic soldier and such a treasure that there has never been a heroic overlord who encompasses the world!

Why? Desperate military force must not be relied upon.

Ma Teng's Xiliang Xiong soldiers are vertical and horizontal, which is both an advantage and a disadvantage. Especially his starting point is in Liangzhou, which exacerbates the situation that Ma Teng can only hold on, but cannot swallow the world. The reason for this is that after Ma Chao crossed over, after meditating and thinking hard, combined with the inferences of those called beasts and bricks in the previous life. In the end, three reasons for this result were obtained:

Economic reasons. In junior high school political history class, a fact has long been clarified. That is, everything must be based on the productive forces, that is, the economy. What does it take to fight a war expansion? Isn't it burning money or what? In ancient times, the land of Xiliang was barren, and its economic strength was far inferior to that of the Central Plains in Guannei. Once there is no money, it will not be able to attract a large number of laborers and maintain a huge source of soldiers. As a result, we will fall into a vicious circle of getting poorer and poorer, and getting poorer and poorer.

Unstable in the rear. Xiliang is located in the borderland, and the Qianghu and other ethnic minorities are nomadic in it. The Han Dynasty had a long history of contradictions with ethnic minorities, and from time to time ethnic minorities would come to fight the autumn breeze. And they, the wolves on the grassland, are poisonous and ruthless, and they don't know what sustainable development is, once they find that the defensive strength of the border of the Han Dynasty is weak, they will bite hard, so that the strength of the border can not be slowed down for several years.

There is a lack of domestic talents and masterminds. In ancient times, most of the masters who had read books were gate lords. In the Liangzhou area, the people are fierce and have no atmosphere of reading at all; Second, because of poverty, almost no one has ever read a book. This has led to a serious shortage of talents in Liangzhou, and history has long proved that what is the most lacking in the world?

It's talent!

Without a mastermind, it is impossible to give the Liangzhou warlords a guiding guideline and strategic plan; And without domestic talents, it is impossible to consolidate and develop the territory, even if the territory is laid, in addition to grabbing a fortune, what is the use?

Ma Teng may have been vaguely aware of these three points, but they are by no means so incisive as Ma Chao's summary. Therefore, after Ma Chao slowly said these three points, Ma Teng actually had a kind of suddenness that saw the sun. And the way he looked at Ma Chao, it was as if he had seen a ghost!

"Chao'er! When did you have such a realization? It's really impressive for the father! Ma Teng didn't shoot this time, he jumped up directly, hugged his eldest son, and caught a fat chicken with an old fox.

"Daddy, Daddy... Self-weight, self-weight...... Hey, hey, calm, calm, understand!! Ma Chao struggled hard, but he was afraid of hurting the emotional Ma Teng, so he could only exhale and remind him with difficulty.

"Okay, good, good, great......" Ma Teng, who finally relieved himself, was still a little uncontrollable, and after saying three 'good' in a row, he could only say one 'great' again.

After Ma Chao finished struggling, he saw that this father with a good temperament was so out of shape today. Immediately understood the weight of the pressure on Ma Teng's shoulders, and after a moment of silence, he immediately changed to a confident look, and continued to Ma Teng:

"Father, but continue to ask the child, how should the Ma family make a foundation in this troubled world?"

"Exactly, super fast!"

Ma Chao was not in a hurry, but walked to the camp. He took out a cloth more than a foot long from his chest and spread it on the ground before he said, "Father, please look! ”

Ma Teng glanced suspiciously at the crooked brush lines on the picture, as well as the ugly words on the lines, and after thinking for a moment, he looked shocked and said, "This is the ......"

"Not bad! This is exactly the topographic map that the child drew after chatting with local residents and military outposts for half a month. After Ma Chao finished speaking, he stretched out his hand, then put his index finger on the place of 'Chen Cang' and said: "Our Ma family is in this place at this time, but Chen Cang is a place to fight from outside the gate to inside the pass, and the princes of Xiliang and the heroes in the pass will all be eyeing this. Moreover, when Qianghu went south to plunder, he would also take the lead in attacking Chencang. ”

"This place is not a place to stay for a long time, and it is not a place to entrench and rise!" Ma Chao's last words made up his mind and said with an oath.

"Then, according to Chao'er's opinion, how should the Ma family deal with themselves?" After Ma Teng's vision and thinking were overturned, he immediately found that what Ma Chao said was quite sophisticated and reasonable, so he naturally asked Ma Chao for advice.

"Here!" Ma Chao's hand swiped and pointed to Fufeng County: "Fufeng is the land of Sanfu, and it is the hometown of the Ma family, my father's prestige is rising, and it is the right time to return to Fufeng." ”

"Huh? Why did my son insist on returning to Fufeng? Ma Teng also thought about returning to Fufeng County, but he had never been associated with the struggle for world domination, so he asked this question.

"There are three reasons: First, as the child said before, isn't it beautiful that the father is returning to his hometown in fine clothes? Second, after the rebellion of the Ten Standing Servants, Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, and most of the troops in the three auxiliary places were transferred to Luoyang, and the defense was weak, which was the time when we were plotting; Third, Fufeng is, after all, an important place in Gyeonggi, and once we occupy Fufeng, we will have more say in it. ”

"The right to speak?" Ma Teng is just an out-and-out Eastern Han warlord, and he really doesn't know what the right to speak is......

"Yes, the imperial court and Dong Zhuo will never let the Fufeng of the land of Sanfu fall into the hands of thieves. Belch... It's our hand. Once this surging skill is launched, it will naturally be a little indistinguishable from the enemy, Ma Chao hurriedly adjusted his thinking and continued: "But Fufeng has become a fact in our hands, father thought, what will the imperial court or Dong Zhuo do?" ”

"Send troops to beg for it?" Ma Teng began to know his son a little: why did he look like a fool in front of him?

Sure enough, Ma Chao sent a helpless look and said: "Father, after Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, he fished in troubled waters and made a preemptive strike, and he has become the discursor of the imperial court. However, as a border warrior, he vainly tried to control the entire Han Dynasty, how could he easily achieve his wish? If the child's expectations are good, Dong Zhuo will also be anxious, and at this time, we occupy Fufeng, which is not necessarily bad news for Dong Zhuo. ”

"Chao'er, you mean......" Ma Teng is not entirely an idiot, Ma Chao said it so clearly, how could he still guess?

"Yes, Dong Zhuo will definitely marry us. And as long as we find a step, we will immediately change from a thief to an orthodox imperial army! ”

The big brother of the black and astringent society wants to wash white, isn't it usually like this? - I've watched too many police and gangster films.
