Chapter 477

Gangneung City.

Inside Yuan Tan's official office.

Because Yuan Tan was in a hurry to get angry, Pang Tong and the others looked very nervous.

It doesn't matter to Yuan Tan that Cao Cao sent troops to fight him, after all, he must fight for hegemony.

But what he never expected was that Cao Cao was the one who came to rob.Although it has not yet reached the point where the three-light policy has reached its peak, the one-light policy has been thoroughly implemented.

The formerly prosperous Guanzhong Great Plain has now become a terrifying world where 'robbers' are everywhere and the people have nowhere to return.

Without money and food, millions of people in Guanzhong would freeze to death or starve to death.

Intelligence shows that the coalition forces of Cao Cao and Xiliang are moving further south, and since there are no big cities in the Guanzhong area, most of them are villages, it is difficult for Gao Lanzhang and the others to resist the enemy's attack.

Yuan Tan considered the current situation for a long time.

If someone is sent to fight, the chances of winning against people like Ma Teng and Cao Cao are really slim.After all, on the Guanzhong Great Plains, [-] Xiliang iron cavalry possessed absolute combat effectiveness.

Yuan Tan stopped walking back and forth, looked at Wen Wu in the hall and said, "It seems that this Southern Expedition is a bit too hasty to go further."

Pang Tong felt that he should be together with the master, and immediately walked out, saying: "Master, now we have the Yangtze River natural moat that we have shared with Sun Liu. We only need a certain amount of troops, and we are not afraid of their counterattack. Subdue Yongliang These places, it seems, have become the priority at present.”

Jia Xu and the others agreed with Pang Tong's words.

They believe that it is time to stop the pace of the southern expedition and send troops to the north to attack the invading enemy.

It seems that it is still necessary to eliminate Cao Cao, Ma Teng and others, and capture Yongliang, so that after completely occupying the north, they can go all out and go south without hesitation.

Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity, Yuan Tan also adjusted the grand strategy of unifying the world.

He ordered materials from all over the country to be transferred to Hangu Pass and Wu Pass.The first of these two Guancheng is in the west of Luoyang, and the latter is in the west of Wancheng, leading to the north and south of Guanzhong.

These materials will support the battle between Yuan Tan and Cao Cao, Ma Teng and Han Sui, and are also the foundation for saving the people in Guanzhong.

"Immediately select representatives from the suffering people in Guanzhong and send them to various places to preach the atrocities committed by Cao Cao and others." Yuan Tan issued another order.

then.

In the early winter of 210, Yuan Tan left behind Gan Ning and others to guard Jingzhou with an army of [-], and Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, these Jingzhou surrendered generals, would assist them.

And Yuan Tan himself returned to Guanzhong.

With the news of Cao Cao, Ma Teng, Han Sui and others entering Guanzhong, the news of atrocities came.

The world was in an uproar.

Cao Cao and others disregarded the life and death of the people, and their shameless and despicable march of crazy robbery was cast aside by the people of the world.

People all over the world call them invaders, and this is the first time that they have been given such a title by the people in the battle for hegemony in the past dynasties.

But someone is happy.

In the city of Changsha.

"Hehehe..." Zhuge Liang kept laughing.

"Hehehe..." Liu Bei also laughed.

Laugh shit.The Metropolitan Governor Zhou Yu's expression was very stern.

It is difficult for the governor to understand why Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei can still laugh. After all, although Yuan Tan retreated, the defeat of the side suffered a lot.

The two of them lost half of Jingzhou, and they were so meowy that they could laugh!

The governor didn't understand, because wealth limited the governor's imagination.The governor doesn't know what it means to be barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes.

You must know that Liu Bei only had a small county in the past, but now there are half a state, and it is a great victory to make Yuan Tan retreat.

"Why doesn't the governor like it?" Liu Bei asked.

Zhou Yu became refined, and said calmly, "Uncle Emperor, although Yuan Tan left, he left behind a hundred thousand troops. People like Zhang Yun on land are not easy to mess with, and people like Gan Ning in the water are not easy to mess with. Don't slack off. The governor has to go back to report on his duties, so I bid farewell."

…………

In the cold weather of March [-]th and heavy snowfall, Yuan Tan led the vanguard cavalry into the Guanzhong area.

"My lord, look!" Dian Wei pointed to the past with a terrifying expression.

Yuan Tan raised his eyes and saw piles of frozen and starved corpses appearing on the side of the road.

Being able to make a general of Dian Wei's level terrified shows the horror of the situation at that time.

Yuan Tan got off his horse and took a closer look. Looking at the hard corpses of the common people, his face gradually became monstrously angry.

"Prime Minister..."

"Is it the prime minister?"

"Prime Minister!"

I don't know when, in the heavy snow, there are many skinny people kneeling.

"Hurry up, immediately send an order to the rear army to send supplies to help the people first!" Yuan Tan howled.

The people here can no longer hold on, and if they don't save them, millions of people will suffer.

With the arrival of Yuan Tan, the people's hearts in Guanzhong were stabilized.

And Cao Cao, Ma Teng, and Han Sui ravaged Guanzhong.

They came to rob and invade. At the beginning, they robbed money and food, and controlled the killing.But the people below couldn't hold back when they robbed, so they killed and set fire again.

The people all ran to the mountains to hide.

Hearing that Yuan Tan is coming, the army is coming, and the people gradually go down the mountain and return to the village.

For a time, the land of Guanzhong was filled with crying and howling.

There are many corpses who died of freezing and starvation on the road.

However, in Guanzhong Hongnong City, it was a scene of enthusiasm.

This is the base camp of Cao Cao, Ma Teng and Han Sui, and it is already a military city.

The people in the city were all slaves, and for Cao Cao, Ma Teng and Han Sui transported the looted money, food and materials to the ruler.

Every day, hundreds of vehicles of supplies are sent out.

In the mansion.

Cao Cao and the others were roasting the brazier, eating meat, drinking wine, and admiring the snow.

"This time, it's enough for our army to use for two years." Han Sui was drinking red.

Ma Teng drank a cup, "This winter, our people finally don't have to go hungry."

Cao Cao looked down on the short-sighted Ma Teng and Han Sui, but he had no choice but to win them over. He raised his glass and said, "I heard that Yuan Tan has returned to the army, and we don't have much time left. I hope the two generals will make preparations early. It's time to retreat back to the customs immediately."

Just when Cao Cao and the others were talking.

At this time, a red-haired girl came in, dressed in strong clothes and carrying a sword on her back. When she came in, she said sharply: "You say Yuan Tan is a traitor who caused a cholera epidemic, but you have committed crimes, robbed and killed people, and fought with animals. What's the difference?"

Cao Cao and Han Sui looked at their noses, their noses at their mouths, and said nothing.

Ma Teng was embarrassed, and turned against the case, "Daughter, if you are so rude again, don't blame me for sending you back to Xiliang!" He said: "If not, our people will starve to death!"

The girl turned around with a cold snort and left.

Cao Cao said with a chuckle, "The general's daughter is really a kind person, but she doesn't know the dangers of the world. What we have done here is also forced."

This girl is Ma Teng's daughter, Ma Yunlu. She is known in Xiliang for her kindness.

Ma Yunlu couldn't feel at ease when he saw Ma Teng and the others committing crimes, so he ran to the front line to help the people as much as possible.

Cao Cao saw the ashamed Ma Teng, and said again: "Give me an order, wherever General Ma's daughter is, the soldiers must retreat, and there should be no conflict."

Ma Teng looked at Cao Cao very gratefully.

Han Sui also said: "Since my niece wants to save someone, let her do it. In fact, there is no hindrance to us. Give me an order, and the soldiers of our troops will stay away when they see General Ma's daughter."

Ma Teng was even more grateful, so he also passed on the order.

At this time, a young man with a heroic spirit and a strong back came in.

"Father, Yuan Tan's forward army is about to reach Mianchi." The young man said to Ma Teng.

Cao Cao and the others looked at each other, and it seemed that it was time for him to leave.

They didn't intend to fight Yuan Tan decisively, and it was the best policy to retreat to the territory to spend the winter warmly.

But the young man didn't think so. He became excited at this moment, and said, "Father, my son, please fight Yuan Tan!"

Ma Teng stroked his beard and looked at his son Ma Chao without saying a word.

Cao Cao loves Ma Chao very much, and Ma Chao is the only one in the world who can compare with his son Cao Zhang.Cao Cao also saw Ma Chao fighting, and thought he was not inferior to Guan Yu and others.

So at this moment he said with great interest: "How does Meng Qi plan to fight Yuan Tan?"

Ma Chao immediately exuded vigor from all over his body, and said with full of energy: "Xiong'er Mountain in the south of Mianchi can hide soldiers. When the time comes, surprise Yuan Tan and complete his achievements in one battle!"

Ma Teng and the others looked at each other.

Han Sui immediately said earnestly: "It's good that my nephew has such vigor, but we must know that Yuan Tan is a generation of heroes who have experienced hundreds of battles. Our army still has to put safety first."

Cao Cao nodded, "Since that's the case, let's prepare to retreat to Tongguan!"

So Ma Teng and the three made a plan, regardless of Ma Chao's blushing.
