Zhang Han was naturally in no danger as he was protected by the four couplets.

"Master, in fact, Cao Gong is good at writing, Tao and military strategy, and he has the ambition to bring peace to the world. Now I admire you very much. Why don't we go to Yanzhou to join Cao Gong!" Congratulations said.

After hearing this, Zhang Han thought to himself: So you are following me desperately just because you want to take the opportunity to convince me? Now I owe you a favor and I feel embarrassed if I don’t give it away! But if you really surrender to Cao Cao, what will happen to those in Xuzhou?

What would my gay friends think of me?

Zhang Han thought for a long time, and suddenly found the bracelet dangling in his hand, and casually made up: "I also want to vote for Cao Gong, but I still have a favor that I haven't repaid! I just happened to leave Chang'an now, and I want to get over it.

!”

When the four of them saw that Zhang Han actually agreed, they were all very happy and asked: "What kind of kindness? We just follow the master! When the matter is settled, we will return to Yanzhou!"

Zhang Han waved his hand: "No need, I can go there alone. Well... you go back to Yanzhou to resume your life. Oh! By the way! Congratulations on getting rich, I'd like to trouble you two to go to Yuan Shu's place and Tao Qian's place!"

"

The two of them were confused: "What are you going to do?"

Zhang Han replied: "Help me find Lu Bu and tell him that everything is fine with me and there is nothing to worry about. Also, go to Xuzhou to find a girl named Zhiyin and bring me a message - wait for my return!"

The four of them looked at each other, smiled evilly, and said, "The friendship between masters is endless!"

Zhang Han didn't answer but thought to himself: Diao Chan, Yin Zhi, I hope you can live a better life than me!

Then they said goodbye to each other and went their separate ways. Congratulations went to Xuzhou, fortune went to Huainan, everything went well and returned to Yanzhou, while Zhang Han rode a skinny pony and headed west.

...

But it is said that after Ma Teng returned to Xiliang from Chang'an with his family, he had been idle at home. Later, when Li Jue took power and sent his army to attack Chang'an, Xiliang suddenly became an unclaimed land!

And Ma Teng has a sworn friend here in Xiliang, his name is Han Sui!

This Han Sui was originally a follower of the Xiliang Prefect. Later, because he offered a good hand of chrysanthemums, the prefect liked it, so he was promoted to an official position! In addition, Han Sui was physically strong and quite resourceful. At the age of 30, he was promoted to Xiliang.

Liang destroys the vanguard of thieves.

Then the Qiang people rebelled and took Han Sui, who was the governor of Liangzhou at the time, as a hostage. In order to avoid being killed, Han Sui was forced to join the rebels. Because he understood the habits of the Han people, he was promoted to become the military advisor of the Qiang people! What's even more exaggerated is that

, because of his bravery in battle, after the death of the Qiang leader, Han Sui, as a Han, actually became the leader of the Qiang people!

Han Sui was not a small character. He fully understood that the Han Dynasty was about to collapse, and his blind pursuit of perfection was not the answer! They had already become rebels anyway, so wouldn't it be better to be more thorough? So he led the Qiang people to attack and burn Xiliangzhou County.

. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was still alive at that time, so he sent the left chariot general Huangfu Song and the Zhonglang general Dong Zhuo to conquer

, they can't win! After all, the Qiang people's archery and horsemanship skills are very good, and they are familiar with the mountain terrain, fighting with the Han army is really easy and enjoyable! Because the central army can't do anything to Han Sui, its strength is further expanded, and it is very easy to

Quickly organize a force of 100,000 people to gather at the border of Xiliang and eye Chang'an!

However, although Han Sui had an easy start, his subsequent development was not smooth! After all, he was so powerful that no matter who held the imperial power, he would not ignore his existence! First, he arranged for Dong Zhuo to guard Xiliang, and then after Dong Zhuo entered the capital, he

F4 was arranged to guard, and after Dong Zhuo died, f4 hid in Xiliang again, so Xiliang was always guarded by the Han army from beginning to end, and Han Sui was never given the slightest chance!

But now it's different!

Li Jue and others mobilized to seize Chang'an. Although Xiliang was remote, it was still considered a piece of fat for Han Sui, who had lived in the west for a long time! In addition, observing the chaotic situation in the world, he thought that he must do something to get started.

Xiliang is now empty...

Han Sui had already mobilized an army and was wandering outside Xiliang. At the same time, he took more than a dozen of his cronies into various cities in Xiliang to explore the situation! It was probably God's blessing that when he entered the city, he ran into his good friend from his youth - Ma

Teng! The two chatted happily, and Han Sui also told Ma Teng his thoughts, and expressed his willingness to share the world equally with his brother!

Ma Teng had no intention of returning to war. It can be seen that Li Jue and others were devastated after entering Chang'an. The anger in his heart could not be calmed down, so he finally agreed to Han Sui's request! In addition, there were almost no defenders in Xiliang, so Ma Teng cooperated with others and quickly helped.

Han Sui seized this land! And Han Sui fully demonstrated his sincerity by handing over the Qiang military commander's seal to Ma Teng, and he was willing to serve as deputy general. At this point, Xiliang completely changed its surname to "Ma"!

...

After Zhang Han separated from the four couplets, they left Tongguan in the west. As soon as they entered the Xiliang area, the bracelet on his wrist was discovered by the sentries! Then every time they arrived at a checkpoint, the sentries would pay extremely high attention to the bracelet whenever they saw it.

Treat Zhang Han with specifications!

Zhang Han was so happy! As he walked, he kept thinking about Xiao Ma Chao! But in fact, he also had doubts in his heart - Ma Teng was just a general under Dong Zhuo, so why did he use such a bracelet as a token of the Ma family?

Will the Xiliang soldiers take him so seriously?

Of course, all questions must be asked face to face. At this moment, Zhang Han finally entered the main city of Xiliang - Bianzhang City.

Zhang Han wandered all the way, and now he entered Bianzhang, the most prosperous city in Xiliang. Although the majority of people in Bianzhang are Han people, he can already see many blond foreigners with deep eyes and high noses on the street! Zhang Han

Based on my knowledge in high school, I guess these are the ancestors of the people in Tibet, Qinghai, and Ningxia? Or are they distant relatives?

Outside Bianzhang City, there are dozens of small countries scattered around. Later, after nearly a hundred years of annexation, six major countries were left: Qiang, Yinai, Wenqi, Wuheng, Shanshan, and Cheshi. Among the six countries, there are several Qiang people.

The country has the strongest national power. Its iron cavalry not only makes the other five countries follow its lead, but also poses a vague threat to the Han Dynasty. A stream of springs formed by the melted snow of the Qilian Mountains winds like a jade belt in the territory of the Qiang people.

, there is also a vast grassland, with flocks of horses and sheep on the grassland. The wool and the Chollima are the most proud of the Qiang people. The Qiang's wool is a collection of royalties from various countries, and the Chollima is the treasure among the Qiang's treasures! If

This alone is not enough for the Qiang to become the most powerful country in the West. Then it is uniquely located at the throat of the Han Dynasty and the Western Regions. Business is prosperous and every household is very prosperous.

Zhang Han was very surprised. In his imagination, the Xiliang area should be a poor place, but when he was actually here, he found that his imagination was completely wrong! In addition to the harsh climate, the Xiliang area is desert

There is more loess outside, and there are all the entertainment facilities and lifestyle shops that the city should have! After entering the city, Zhang Han watched everything with his mouth open almost in disbelief!

But there is something else that Zhang Han can’t believe!

On the general flag flying in the wind on General Bian Zhang's house, there is a word "horse" printed on it!

It seems that besides Ma Teng, who else could be the owner of Xiliang? In addition, Zhang Han was even more sure of his idea as he was treated as a distinguished guest along the way. He was not polite and strode into the general with the bracelet on his wrist flashing.

I'm looking for Ma Teng!

The road was smooth and they entered the back garden of the mansion. The servant asked Zhang Han to rest and wait while he went to invite Ma Teng.

As soon as the servants left, Zhang Han started walking in the garden. The climate in the northwest is harsh, but Ma Teng still hesitated to build a garden, which shows that it is really a grand place! Zhang Han was actually quite conflicted - in the end,

Have power and happiness? Or gain freedom and happiness? But suddenly I found that the two are not in conflict! If you are a person with power, then you must be free.

At this moment, Zhang Han only heard a "swish" sound in his ear! When he looked closely, he saw an arrow flying past him. The feeling of cutting through the air still made Zhang Han feel frightened! Looking again, he saw that the arrow was going straight.

Standing on the wall, Zhang Han thought to himself that if he were shot, he might not be able to save his life! He suddenly became angry and wanted to curse!

"Brother Han! I knew you would come to me!" A familiar female voice surprised Zhang Han!

Looking again, the person standing in front of me is Xiao Ma Chao! But today, Xiao Ma Chao's dress is not the same as when we met in Chang'an! The girl's dress that day has completely faded, and now she is wearing a shirt that doesn't fit her.

With a long bow in hand, the little girl's weakness was completely gone, replaced by

A masculine aura of a man! At such a young age, and as a woman, Zhang Han had to praise him for having such an aura. He couldn't help but think of a poem he had learned when he was studying and recited it: Bend

Gong Zhengzhan is a man, and I once met Huamei in my dream. I thought about returning the wine several times, and the Buddha clouds piled up to wish the concubine Ming!

Xiaoma smiled and finally proved that she is still a good girl: "Brother Han, what's wrong? It's been so long since we last met, why have you become so arrogant? Come on, come on, I'll take you to see my father

, and my uncle!”

After saying that, Ma Chao pulled Zhang Han and left. Zhang Han walked quickly and asked, "Do you have an uncle? Is it strange Shuli?"

...

Ma Chao took Zhang Han straight into the general meeting hall, and happened to see Ma Teng put on his casual clothes and prepare to meet Zhang Han. This saved him a few steps, so he received Zhang Han directly in the meeting hall!

Zhang Han saw another person sitting in his seat, who was similar in age to Ma Teng. When he asked, he found out that this person was Ma Chao's uncle, Han Sui.

Ma Teng told Han Sui how he escaped from danger in Chang'an, and said that if it weren't for Zhang Han, he would have died in the rebel army! Han Sui and Ma Teng were close friends, and when he heard that Zhang Han had such kindness, he naturally felt sorry for him.

Zhang Han was very polite and the few of them had a great time chatting!

While they were chatting, Zhang Han suddenly had a whim, so he asked casually: "Xiliang was originally Li Jue's territory, why did it fall into the hands of General Ma now?"

After hearing this, Han Sui raised his eyebrows and felt unhappy. After all, he had obtained Xiliang by his own strength. Every soldier in this western region was his subordinate who had fought bloody battles for many years. Ma Teng was just a co-conspirator.

Although I was willing to become a minister, I still felt uncomfortable when I heard outsiders mention that the owner of Xiliang was named Ma.

Of course Ma Teng saw the clues, so he replied: "This Xiliang does not belong to my Ma family, it was completely taken by my brother Han Sui! It's just that Han Sui has been fighting outside the Great Wall for many years, and Xiliang is still mostly Han people, so I don't know what to do for a while.

How to govern, so I am just a substitute, the real big things will be taken care of by General Han, brother Zhang Han, please don’t make another mistake?"
Chapter completed!
