The food in Wuwei City is already less than a month, and every day of delay increases the danger of running out of food.

For the army, running out of food means collapse, fleeing, and defeat, so after getting the good news from Ma Dai, Ma Teng immediately held a military meeting overnight.

The chamber of the Matten Mansion is brilliantly lit. Ma Teng sat in the center, and the generals were divided to the left and right.

"Bo Zhan, first of all, who has arranged for His Majesty to pick us up? Which route are you going to take for us? Ma Teng drank a cup of hot tea to warm up his body and asked Ma Dai in a deep voice.

After listening to Ma Teng's inquiry, there was silence in the conference hall, and all the generals were silent, waiting for Ma Dai's answer. Although now there is an edict and a seal from the Son of Heaven, Liu Wei also promised to accept the submission of the Western Liang Army, but from Liangzhou to Wancheng more than 2,000 miles, all the way the princes are around, if there is no response from the Eastern Han Army, God knows how many men and horses will be left after arriving in Wancheng?

Ma Dai cleared his throat and replied: "Back to my uncle's words, the imperial army is attacking Sun Ce with heavy troops, and His Majesty has already rushed to Jiangxia to take the town, and sent Wei Qing and Zhao Yun to lead 30,000 troops to attack Shangluo Pass, contain Zhu Yang's back, and reduce the pressure on our army." Our army will take the line of stability and northland, and cross the border from the northeast of Chang'an, and then Wei Qing and Zhao Yuner will send troops to respond. ”

"Alas...... Only 30,000 soldiers and horses were sent to respond, and it would be nice if 100,000 troops were dispatched to attack Chang'an! Ma Tie complained stupidly, and he was very dissatisfied with Liu Bian's arrangement.

Qin Liangyu comforted softly: "Second brother, don't be discouraged, it is rumored that Changshan Zhao Zilong's martial arts are not under Lu Bu, and even the Xiongnu Shan Yu Temujin was picked by him with one ear back then." In recent years, it has swept away the mountains. and Xu Huang broke the Taiping army and repelled Zhou Yu. It's a battle-hardened one. The fact that the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty sent this general to answer us shows that he is very important to us. ”

"What my sister-in-law said is very true. Listening to the rumored demeanor of Zhao Zilong, it is really desirable! Ma Yunluo, who was next to him, looked at him and fell into longing.

Ma Tie was still dissatisfied with his sister-in-law's explanation: "I have also heard of Zhao Yun's prestige, how high is a person's martial arts?" No matter how powerful he Zhao Yun is, can he still be better than his brother? ”

Ma Chao, who was in silver armor and white robe, and had an extraordinary bearing, stood beside Ma Teng, and listened to Ma Tie's words without saying a word, and his face seemed to be thoughtful. If you can compete with this rumored Zhao Yun, it will also be a great pleasure in life!

Ma Tie changed his words. continued: "But what's the use of martial arts? Brother's martial arts are so high, aren't we still losing and retreating? Lian lost Anding, Nan'an, Longxi and other places, not to mention being beaten back to Liangzhou, and now he wants to abandon the city and flee......"

"Huh......?"

Listening to Ma Tie's words, Ma Chao looked displeased, and glanced at his brother with slanted eyes: "Second brother, is this sarcastic brother me?" Although our army is losing and retreating, so far, the trump card in my brother's hand has not been played! For this breakthrough, I want Zhu Yang to see how powerful my brother's spear cavalry and fish army are in formation. Let the world know that my Ma Chao is also a general who can command the army, and he is by no means a reckless man with the courage of a horseman! ”

"What my brother said is that although the number of lancers and fish fish army you trained is small, it is an elite soldier capable of fighting ten. It's time to take it out and teach the Luoyang army a lesson. Ma Yunluo took Ma Chao's words and echoed loudly, "Besides, the three thousand white-pole soldiers trained by my sister-in-law can also be pulled out for Zhu Yang to taste it." ”

Qin Liangyu smiled: "Don't say that, Yunluo. Sister-in-law, the white-pole soldiers I trained were more suitable for mountain warfare, but they didn't have much advantage on the plains. Can you succeed in breaking through this time? You have to look at the table of your brother's lancers! ”

After listening to the condemnation of his brother and sister, Ma Tie hurriedly explained: "Brother Hugh wants to misunderstand. How dare the younger brother despise the elder brother? I didn't mean that martial arts were bad, and I didn't mean to look down on Zhao Yun. Instead, the younger brother thinks that His Majesty should send a general who can command the army to meet us, such as Yue Fei, Li Jing, Xu Huang, Han Shizhong and other famous generals, rather than unknown people like Wei Qing. Could it be that his name is the same as my Han's God of War Wei Hou, so he will use it as Wei Qing? ”

"Wei Qing leveled Liu Biao and took Jiangxia, how do you know that Wei Qing will not work?" Ma Yunluo sneered at Ma Tie, "Besides, even if Wei Qing can't do it, isn't there still Zhao Yun!" ”

Ma Tietou shook like a rattle, and his face was full of disdain for Wei Qing: "How did I hear rumors that this Wei Qing was stained with his sister Wei Zifu into the palace, and his brother Wei Jiang has always been a personal guard for the Son of Heaven, so he can worship the general, how much real ability can this kind of person who relies on relationships to be in a position have?" Besides, Liu Biao saw that the 100,000-strong army was besieging the city, advancing by waterway, and he was scared to death, and he could take Jiangxia by changing anyone else, how could he explain Wei Qing's military talent? ”

Qin Liangyu smiled and explained to this little uncle: "That being said, it also takes a certain amount of ability to command the three armies, so didn't Chang Yuchun not take down Liu Biao, but instead made everyone rebel and leave, and finally became a traitor?" In addition, His Majesty has swept the princes over the years, and there has been no mistake in employing people, and Li Jing, Han Shizhong, Xu Huang and others who have been promoted by His Majesty have made great achievements and shocked the world; Majesty xià can be described as a discerning eye, like the reincarnation of Bole. Sister-in-law, I believe that since Your Majesty has reused this Wei Qing as the main general, this person must have something extraordinary! ”

After a pause, Qin Liangyu relieved his doubts about the other generals and dispelled their doubts about the Son of Heaven: "Besides, Li Jing, Yue Fei, Xu Huang and others are all generals who sit on one side, how can they be transferred lightly?" Li Jing sits in Qingzhou, Cao Cao in the north, and Li Tang in the east, which can be described as a heavy responsibility. And Yue Fei has led his troops to attack Xiangyang since last summer, commanding an army of 300,000, and in the past six months, he has consumed huge manpower and material resources, and has taken the lives of countless soldiers. And Xu Huang, Han Shizhong and others are also burdened with heavy responsibilities, and they cannot be transferred casually, I believe that since His Majesty sent Wei Qing to meet us, he must think that he is the best commander! ”

Ma Teng nodded approvingly: "Liangyu's analysis is extremely good, His Majesty can send troops to meet us, and he has done his best." Let's stop doubting His Majesty's intentions! The next thing to discuss is how to break through the siege of Zhu Yang, quickly pass through Yongzhou, reach Shangluo Pass, and enter the territory of His Majesty? ”

Ma Dai, who had been silent for a long time, stood up and said the analysis of Liu Wei and his subordinates, and told everyone present that Liu Bei was in charge of zhì, and there were Xiongnu outside the fortress, all of which were impassable, and the best route was to go straight to Wuguan through Yongzhou. And there are two routes in Yongzhou, Tianshui and Anding, Tianshui has Zhao Kuangyin entrenched, far away from Shangluo, and Wei Qing's army whip is out of reach. If stability is taken, Wei Qing and Zhao Yun can send troops to respond and block Lu Bu's attack.

What do the generals think of what Bozhan said? Our army broke through from Wuwei to the east, took Anding and Beidi, bypassed Chang'an and ran to Shangluo and Wuguan, how is this route? Ma Teng took a sip of coarse tea and asked in a solemn voice.

Although Ma Teng is known as a general, there are few outsiders under his command. In addition to the three sons Ma Chao, Ma Tie, Ma Xiu, and daughter Ma Yunluo, it is the daughter-in-law Qin Liangyu, the nephew Ma Dai, and Ma Chao's brother-in-law Qin Ming, and only one Pang De is a person with a foreign surname, which is more like a family meeting.

Over the years, Qin Liangyu has also repeatedly advised Ma Teng to recruit talents and recruit some knowledgeable and well-read military thinkers, but unfortunately Yongliang is located outside the plug and lacks talents. Ma Jiajun has been able to support it to this day, and has always relied on the advice of Qin Liangyu, a female streamer, which made Ma Teng suffer from a lack of strategy and could not develop and grow.

After listening to Ma Teng's inquiry, the generals didn't have any good ideas, and they all bowed their hands and said: "The Son of Heaven has many think tanks, and there are many scouts and horses, so he naturally has more information than us. Since His Majesty let us go to stability, let's go to stability! ”

"No!"

As soon as the generals finished speaking, Qin Liangyu stood up again and talked eloquently, "The situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, and we can't stick to the rules. Although there are many civil and military forces around His Majesty, Liangzhou is thousands of miles away from Yangzhou, and His Majesty will inevitably have miscalculations. What's more, Bo Zhan was noticed by the Luoyang Army when he came back this time, and he also showed his seal. With Zhu Yang's sense of smell, he will definitely be able to guess our next step, so he will set up an ambush on our retreat and ambush us with ease! ”

"Alas...... If I knew this, I wouldn't have taken out the ribbon to deceive the Luoyang Army! Ma Dai kept patting his forehead, annoyed.

Qin Liangyu comforted softly: "Bo Zhan don't blame himself, if he is wrong, we will be wrong, maybe we can kill Zhu Yang by surprise and break through and leave Liangzhou with the smallest loss." ”

"Oh...... What is my daughter-in-law's plan? Tell me about it! Ma Teng was overjoyed when he heard this, and secretly rejoiced in his heart that he had such a good daughter-in-law, otherwise the entire Liangzhou Legion would be like a fly without a head, and he didn't know how much loss he would have to suffer!

Qin Liangyu was calm, and once again offered a strategy: "Zhu Yang's army is stationed dozens of miles away in the south, and it will definitely judge that our army will abandon the city and retreat to the east, so as to set up an ambush in advance to attack our army in a dangerous place." However, our army went the opposite way, taking advance as retreat, going out of the city and attacking Yang Su's camp, taking advantage of its unpreparedness to open a bloody road, and then going straight to Tianshui. This will definitely make Zhu Yang's ambush soldiers pounce on the air and wait in vain, and by the time they notice it, our army has already broken through to the south, leaving them far behind. ”

As he spoke, he bowed his hand to the generals: "What do the generals think of Liangyu's strategy of retreating?" ”

The generals under Ma Teng didn't have much strategy, and nodded one after another: "What the young lady said is very true, so use troops according to your analysis!" ”

Pang De, who had been silent, finally came out and arched his hand: "There is another article to add in the end, maybe it can greatly increase Mrs. Qin's strategy of retreating into advance, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?" (To be continued......)
