After Ma Fei's words were finished, Ma Rui, Ma Lun, Ma Shao, Ma Gang and others were dumbfounded, never expecting that Ma Fei didn't have the slightest intention of being the lord.

When they got here, Ma Rui, Ma Lun, Ma Shao, Ma Gang and others had nothing to say, especially Ma Rui, he pushed the problem to Ma Fei, but Ma Fei supported Ma Chao to be the master, if he insisted on arguing, there would be no more results, and he could also see that the younger generation had huge expectations for Ma Chao.

Although he was unhappy, Ma Rui still endured it and did not express any objections.

After a while, Ma Teng spoke: "Okay, from today onwards, Ma Chao will replace me as a ......."

Later, Ma Teng said a lot of polite words, as for what he said, Ma Rui didn't listen carefully, anyway, Ma Chao became the lord.

In fact, today's events are all expected by Ma Teng, he has been the lord for many years, and he knows better than anyone what his subordinates are thinking.

Therefore, Ma Teng went to Ma Fei in person last night, discussed with Ma Fei for a long time, and told Ma Fei what to do.

Ma Fei is Ma Teng's younger brother and Ma Chao's uncle, so he is naturally on Ma Teng's side.

Ma Teng was sent away by everyone, and then Ma Chao delivered an inaugural speech, which roughly means that as usual, how his father arranged it before, and what it is now.

As a result, Ma Rui, Ma Lun, Ma Shao, Ma Gang and other uncles and uncles all left Gaoping City and returned to their respective stations.

But Ma Chao only left Ma Fei in Gaoping, because he still needed Ma Fei to handle some things for him.

In the hall of the mansion, Ma Chao and Ma Fei sat there quietly. The people served some drinks. Ma Chao personally poured a glass of wine for Ma Fei. said: "Uncle, in the future, Meng Qi will rely on his uncle more, and I will give my uncle a cup first!" ”

"Meng Qi, you are my own nephew, and my arm will naturally not turn outward. But Ma Rui, Ma Lun, Ma Shao, Ma Gang and others are not fuel-efficient lamps, and they also have relatively high prestige in the entire army, and they have always been very opposed to you. Now that you are the lord, you are afraid that they will stumble behind your back, so you must always be on guard. Ma Fei said earnestly.

"Thank you uncle for reminding me, Meng Qi knows what to do, Ma Rui, Ma Lun, Ma Shao, Ma Gang and other uncles are all great heroes of our Ma family, if they are willing to obey my command and continue to serve our Ma family, I will naturally not treat them badly, if they do not obey my command. If you want to play tricks on me again, I'll definitely clean them up. Ma Chao said.

Ma Fei said: "Meng Qi." In fact, what my uncle said, your father asked me to convey to you, last night, I talked with your father all night, and we are full of doubts about the future of our Ma family, your personality is strong, never willing to suffer a little loss, your father is most worried that you are too young, once impulsive, you don't care about anything, this is why I stay by your side, remind you more. However, in my uncle's opinion, your wisdom should far exceed that of your father, your father has always done things in a decent manner, and many opportunities have been missed over the years, so our Ma family has not grown. You are young and vigorous, dare to fight, and like to play cards not according to common sense, maybe this kind of character will make our Ma family grow gradually, but if the road goes astray, it will also make our Ma family perish. I know you don't like to be restrained, so my uncle doesn't plan to stay with you, there are still a lot of things to do in Northland County, and my uncle has to go back to deal with some things, if I am not in Northland County, then Ma Rui, Ma Lun, Ma Shao, and Ma Gang will do whatever they want. As for how you should decide, and how to take the road, it is up to you to decide, as long as you give an order, your uncle will always follow you, whether it is a flat and wide road in front of you, or a rough and bumpy path, your uncle will follow you to the death! ”

Ma Chao felt a lot after listening to Ma Fei's words, in short, his uncle didn't want to restrain him, he was in charge of everything alone, and gave him full power. And Ma Fei also expressed his worries to Ma Chao, even so, Ma Fei will still spare no effort to obey Ma Chao's orders, even if it is a sea of swords and fires.

Ma Chao was very moved, his father and uncle were his closest people, these words were the elders' advice to him, and he was bound to bring the Ma family on the right path, gradually develop and grow, achieve great achievements, and glorify the lintel.

"Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely carry forward the Ma family!" Ma Chaodao.

Ma Chao did not object to Ma Fei returning to the Northland, because there are only two places in his jurisdiction, Anding and Northland, and the Northland is his important rear, Ma Fei has always been the Taishou of the Northland, in addition, Ma Rui, Ma Lun, Ma Shao, Ma Gang and others are also stationed in the North, if Ma Fei does not go back, the Northland is likely to be controlled by Ma Rui, Ma Lun, Ma Shao, Ma Gang and others, and Ma Rui, Ma Lun, Ma Shao, Ma Gang and others just don't like Ma Chao very much, in case they don't obey his orders, then it is equivalent to him losing half of his jurisdiction.

In the afternoon of the same day, Ma Chao personally saw off Ma Fei, and before leaving, Ma Fei was most relieved of his son Ma Dai, hoping that Ma Chao could take good care of Ma Dai.

Ma Chao nodded heavily, Ma Fei didn't have any worries, so he left Anding and headed towards the north.

Ma Fei rode a war horse, with more than a dozen followers, and marched all the way southeast from Gaoping City to Niyang, the county capital where he was located

Beidi County has a long history, it was one of the 36 counties of Qinzhi, the county town was moved several times, and finally settled in Fuping County (now southwest of Wuzhong City, Ningxia) in the Eastern Han Dynasty, but later due to the Qiang rebellion, Fuping County was completely exposed to the attack of the Qiang people, so the county seat of Beidi County moved to Chiyang County, and waited until the Han army quelled the Qiang rebellion, and then moved the county seat to Fuping County. However, the good times did not last long, and soon after, the Qiang people committed rebellion again, and killed Ma Xian, the general of the Han Dynasty, and defeated the army stationed in Beidi, and Beidi County basically fell completely, leaving only a few cities in the south of Beidi County.

The Han Dynasty was frightened, so he temporarily set up the county seat of Beidi County in the territory of Zuo Fengyi, and let Zuo Fengyi's Taishou concurrently serve as the Taishou of Beidi, and command the Han army to continue to fight against the Qiang rebels.

Later, the Han Dynasty once again quelled the Qiang rebellion and recovered Beidi County, but because Beidi County was located in the activity area of the Qiang people, the county government never migrated back, but was managed by Zuo Fengyi's Taishou on his behalf.

It was not until the period of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty that Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty sold his official mantle and re-divided Zuo Fengyi and Beidi County into two, re-restored the independent county governance of Beidi County, and appointed Beidi Taishou, but the inaugural Beidi Taishou stayed in Niyang, no longer went north, and regarded Niyang as a county seat. Therefore, it was basically completely abandoned, and Beidi County only retained three counties: Niyang County, Yiju County, and Shen County.

Even if Ma Teng took over the Northland County, due to the complicated situation in the three northern counties of the Northland County, he did not take any military action against them, and left the Qianghu to manage themselves, and he only governed the three counties in the southern part of the Northland County.

Ma Fei took his entourage and walked all the way to the southeast for about fifty miles, the sky had gradually darkened, Ma Fei was about to give the order to stop advancing, preparing to find a place to rest for the night, and leave again tomorrow during the day.

"Whoosh ......"

But at this moment, in the woods on both sides of the road, countless arrows suddenly shot out, dense like a raging storm, and flew towards Ma Fei and the others.

Ma Fei and the others were caught off guard, and they were hit by arrows and fell off their horses, and Ma Fei was hit by six arrows and lay on the ground dying.

At this time, a rush of footsteps came from the woods, and soon came to the seriously injured Ma Fei, Ma Fei reflected a faint light, and suddenly saw a familiar face, surprised, and couldn't help asking: "Yes...... It's you? ”

"That's right, it's me!" That man was none other than Marry.

Ma Rui glanced at Ma Fei, who was lying on the ground and dying, and asked, "You never dreamed that you would have today, did you?" ”

"You...... Why are you doing this? Ma Fei asked weakly.

Ma Rui said: "Why? Hahaha...... What a why! People die for money, birds die for food, your brother went to the capital to enjoy the high-ranking officials, but he is still there pretending to say something grand. I followed your brother from birth to death, but what did I gain in the end? Fortunately, God gave me another choice, if I can help Han Sui eliminate your Ma family, I can replace you, become the new lord, and then unite with Han Sui to attack Guanzhong together, and then achieve a Wang Tu hegemony! ”

Ma Fei understood, it turned out that this qiē was all Han Sui behind his back. He sneered and said to Ma Rui: "It turned out to be Han Sui...... Ma Rui, I advise you, hurry up and stop it, right? Otherwise, you're not going to end well. Ma Chao is not as good as Shoucheng, he will not think of any old feelings. Moreover, you think things too simply, Han Sui is cunning and cunning, it is by no means as simple as you think, do you think that if you help him eliminate the Ma family, you will be able to become the new lord? You are wrong, Han Sui hates the entire Ma clan, including you, you are just a chess piece in Han Sui's hand, once you are no longer useful, Han Sui will directly throw you away. And you're not going to end any better! ”

Ma Rui said angrily: "You are dying, and you dare to be hard-mouthed? I'll send you to the Netherworld now, and if you have anything to say, just talk about it there slowly! ”

As soon as the words fell, Ma Rui took out the sword in his waist and directly inserted the tip of the sword into Ma Fei's heart.

Ma Rui then ordered someone to cut off Ma Fei's head, and then asked people to clean up the scene and bury all the corpses on the spot, but only carried Ma Fei's head back to Niyang, and sent someone to contact the general in the army, preparing to plan a rebellion, and at the same time asked his henchmen to contact Han Sui, make an appointment to attack Anding together, and capture Ma Chao alive!
