On the way from Xiliang to Yanjin, I saw dust waving in the sky. Under these waving flags, there were the soldiers and horses of Xiliang who were moving slowly.

Why are the marching slowly? The main reason is that these soldiers are all old, weak, sick and disabled, but these horses are also some old horses.

Soldiers are bad soldiers and horses are old horses. How can such an army move fast?

Not to mention the marching of urgency, even if you marching slowly, you will lose hundreds of people along the way.

What kind of people who are not accustomed to the environment, are sick, fall off a cliff and die. In short, leading such a army to march was disgusting to Ma Tie and Ma Xiu.

Under the Central Army's Daqin, the two brothers Ma Xiu and Ma Tie were mournful and looked depressed.

Now, the closer we are to the Yanjin Ferry, the more uneasy the two brothers are. How can they explain the 50,000 soldiers and horses they brought to Ma Teng? I'm afraid that when Ma Teng saw the 50,000 soldiers and horses, he would faint.

Ma Xiu and Ma Tie led the army less than thirty miles away from Yanjin Ferry. The two brothers were extremely nervous at this time.

Yanjin Ferry.

Cao's army camp.

"Brother Meng De, my second son and third son are about to arrive, and it is less than thirty miles away from our camp at this time." Ma Teng said to Cao Cao.

When Cao Cao heard this, he thought, Ma Teng is really a person of particularity. He said that he would lead 50,000 troops to support him, so he would take it as if he really led 50,000 troops to support him.

However, Cao Cao thought about it again and heard that Ma Teng's eldest son Ma Chao was called General Shenweitian and had the courage of thousands of men, so why did he not let his eldest son lead the army this time?

Cao Cao turned his head and looked at Ma Teng, and asked casually: "Brother Shoucheng, I heard that your eldest son Ma Chao is so brave that he is not worthy of being a tyrant. Why didn't he bring him here this time?"

When Cao Cao asked this, he was stunned by Ma Teng's question. Ma Teng originally wanted to bring Ma Chao with him, thinking that he could win several victories and bring glory to him. However, Ma Chao refuted him, so Ma Teng made Ma Chao stay in Wuwei.

Although this is the fact, Ma Teng can't say that his son doesn't like Cao Cao and is unwilling to send troops to help, right?

Ma Teng was very quick to think about it. After a moment of silence, he immediately explained to Cao Cao: "Brother Meng De, there are still grassland barbarians in Xiliang. Among my three sons, the only eldest son Ma Chao can stand alone. Therefore, he was left to guard Wuwei to prevent the grassland barbarians from taking the opportunity to cause trouble."

Ma Teng's reason is a legitimate reason, which makes Cao Cao unable to find any fault. Therefore, Cao Cao did not take this matter to heart.

"What a pity, I'm afraid I won't be able to see Meng Qizhiyong this time." Cao Cao said with a little regret.

Of course, what Cao Cao said was more of a kind word. After all, although Ma Chao is brave, there are still many powerful generals under Cao Cao's command who are not as brave as Ma Chao.

Cao Cao attached great importance to Ma Teng and has always regarded Ma Teng as a guest of honor these days. Today I heard that Ma Teng's 50,000 army was about to arrive, and Cao Cao personally led a group of generals out of the camp to greet him.

At ten minutes at noon, Ma Xiu and Ma Tie led the 50,000 troops to the Cao army camp. After seeing Ma Teng's 50,000 troops, Cao Cao almost fainted. Not to mention Cao Cao, Ma Teng's own head was also buzzing now.

Cao Cao looked at these elite soldiers whose average age was older than himself, and then looked at Ma Teng. After a long time, he squeezed out a sentence from his teeth: "Brother Shoucheng, is this your 50,000 elite soldiers?"

Cao Cao thought to himself that Ma Teng did not bring troops to help him fight, but to support his soldiers.

Cao Cao was suspicious. At this time, Cao Cao had already become suspicious. He thought to himself that Ma Teng would not let his brave eldest son lead the troops, and then he used these bad soldiers to fool him. I'm afraid that Ma Shoucheng and he were not united with him.

At this time, Ma Teng's head was buzzing. He never expected that Ma Xiu and Ma Tie would bring 50,000 elderly, weak, sick and disabled people.

Just these soldiers, let alone war, even if the drums sounded a little louder, Ma Teng was worried that he would send them away.

After Cao Cao asked this, Ma Teng's old face suddenly turned red with shame, and he wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into it.

Ma Tengle immediately stepped forward and scolded Ma Xiu and Ma Tie, "I'm sorry, I'll ask you to bring 50,000 elite soldiers to come. What are you bringing?"

When Cao Cao heard Ma Teng's son, he thought, "Ma Shoucheng will perform. If it weren't for your instructions, your two sons would dare to do this."

Ma Xiu and Ma Tie were scolded by Ma Chao, and he felt very wronged in his heart, so he had to tell Ma Teng the truth.

"Sad son, this is a bad son!" Ma Teng couldn't help but scold him when he learned that Ma Chao had deliberately given the two brothers 50,000 cowards.

"snort!"

Cao Cao was too lazy to watch Ma Teng "act" here, so he snorted coldly and led his lieutenant general back to the camp.

In fact, Ma Teng was also very wronged. He came to help Cao Cao attack Yuan Shao sincerely, but never expected that his son would actually believe Han Sui's words and stumbling to himself.

At this time, Cao Cao's hypochondria began to attack again. He began to wonder if Ma Teng had an anti-mind in his heart. Because of Ma Chao's slutty operation, Ma Teng and Cao Cao had already seen a gap.

"Why!"

"Go back to the camp!" Ma Teng sighed and greeted his two sons.

Now, these 50,000 soldiers have arrived from Xiliang thousands of miles away from Yanjin Ferry. No matter whether it is a bad soldier or an elite soldier, they can only do this. We can't let these soldiers return, we are just transferring elite soldiers.

If you go back and forth like this, the daylily will be completely cold. These 50,000 soldiers will probably not be able to fight the tough battle, and they can only follow Cao Cao's butt and beat the drums on the sides.

at the same time.

Xin Ping, the envoy sent by Yuan Shao to join forces with Ma Teng, has also returned from Jincheng to Yecheng. Although Xin Ping has not completed the task assigned to him by Yuan Shao, he did not return empty-handed.

Xin Ping brought back Han Sui's plan. As long as Yuan Shao cooperated with this plan, he would definitely kill Ma Teng and his son according to Cao Cao's suspicious nature. At that time, Cao Cao and Ma Chao would have a grudge against him to kill his father. Then Ma Chao would definitely take the people from Xiliang to attack Cao Cao. At that time, this kind of alliance would be much more beneficial than Yuan Shao's plan.

You know, once Cao Cao kills Ma Teng, there will be a blood feud between him and Ma Chao.

After hearing the plan brought by Xin Ping, Yuan Shao repeatedly applauded.
