Chapter 222
However, due to the existence of the bad people, they successfully cut off Han Sui's intelligence transmission, making Dong Zhuo know nothing about the Ming Dynasty's invasion of Liangzhou.
Even the news that Yang Zaixing, Gao Chong and Yue Yun led the army to attack other counties in Liangzhou did not reach Han Sui's ears.
When Yue Fei learned that Han Sui had built Liangzhou City as solid as a rock, he couldn't help laughing.
In his opinion, Han Sui's move was tantamount to waiting for death.
Once the three armies joined forces, Liangzhou City would be breached, and Han Sui would surely die.
"Governor Yue, do you plan to besiege the city instead of attacking?" After Ma Teng got the news, he immediately came to Yue Fei in person to inquire about the situation.
After all, he currently only had more than 10,000 troops, and the problem of food and grass was very tricky.
Originally, Ma Teng planned to attack the city quickly, but now the situation has become complicated.
If he got into a protracted war, he could only hold on for a month at most, and then he would face the dilemma of food shortage, and the city would naturally be breached.
Yue Fei replied with a smile: "I have already made preparations for Ma Taishou. Three months of food and grass have been placed outside the tent, and Ma Taishou can take them away by himself."
Ma Teng was stunned. He stared at the scene in front of him with his eyes wide open and looked at it in disbelief.
He never thought that the problem that had troubled him for a long time would be solved so easily.
He felt as if he was in a dream, everything seemed so illusory and unreal.
"Ma Taishou, there is no need to be confused. Our intelligence organization of the Ming Dynasty is the best in the world, so the situation in Ma Taishou's army is no secret."
Yue Fei saw the doubt on Ma Teng's face, and he smiled and explained.
In fact, Yue Fei had long expected that Ma Teng would come to seek help because they had enough information.
For Ma Teng, his hometown will soon become the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and he will also become a citizen of the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, giving some food and grass and revealing some information is not a big deal for them.
"Thank you!" Ma Teng's voice trembled with excitement. He wanted to say something, but thousands of words came to his mind, and finally turned into a short thank you.
"Haha, we are all family, why do we need to do this!" Yue Fei laughed heartily, and he patted Ma Teng's shoulder hard to show his closeness and trust.
Then, Yue Fei enthusiastically took Ma Teng's hand and went to the place to receive food and grass.
Ma Teng's heart was full of gratitude, and he secretly made up his mind to repay this kindness.
Ma Teng's camp...
Ma Chao was confused when he saw so many carts of food and grass, and he couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Father, what's this?" Ma Chao asked.
This trip brought back so many carts of food and grass. Could it be that my father went to rob? Otherwise, it doesn't make sense.
"This is given by Yue Fei, the governor of the Ming Dynasty, and it can feed 10,000 troops for three months!"
After Ma Teng finished explaining, Ma Chao looked unbelievable. So much food and grass was given away for free. This was too unreal.
Although Ma Chao did not understand the meaning, Pang De and Pang Rou did understand that this was to recruit us into the Ming Dynasty.
But they also knew Ma Teng's temper, so even if they understood this, they could not say it now.
Otherwise, Ma Teng would definitely send the food and grass back as soon as possible.
At that time, the Ming Dynasty would be completely at odds with each other, which would definitely not be worth the loss.
However, Ma Teng did not realize the hidden meaning behind this.
He simply thought that this was Yue Fei's generous help and was full of gratitude to the Ming Dynasty.
Ma Chao fell into deep thought, trying to understand whether there was a deeper reason behind this sudden gift.
Pang De and Pang Rou looked at each other and understood each other tacitly.
They understood that this might be the Ming Dynasty trying to recruit the Ma family army, but at the same time they also knew Ma Teng's character and knew that it was not appropriate to speak out directly at this moment.
They decided to remain silent and wait for the right time to explain the interests to Ma Teng.
In this tent, everyone was thinking about the future.
The piles of grain and grass became a subtle symbol, foreshadowing the change in the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and the Ma family army.
Ma Teng waved his hand and said firmly: "Okay, no need to say more, Pang De, you immediately send the grain and grass to the granary, and send heavy troops to guard it day and night to ensure that this batch of grain and grass is safe."
He knew that this batch of grain and grass was of vital importance to them and there must be no mistakes.
"Yes, lord!" Pang De responded without hesitation, turned around and left to execute the order.
Everyone looked at Pang De's back and chose to remain silent knowing that it was clear.
Everyone understood that the lord did not want to discuss it in depth.This matter, and Pang De faithfully carried out the will of the lord and said no more.
"Father..." Although Ma Chao had some ideas in his mind, he had not yet fully sorted out the clues. He hoped to ask his father for advice.
However, Ma Teng did not seem to want to think too much and interrupted him directly: "Go down and rest. Everything you do today is to defeat Han Sui. Don't think about it anymore."
"Yes, father!" Ma Chao sighed helplessly and turned away.
Ma Teng stood alone and muttered to himself: "Since you are so generous, when we take down Liangzhou City, I, Ma Teng, will not be greedy. It is enough to kill Han Sui!"
His eyes flashed with determination and fighting spirit, as if he had seen the dawn of victory.
...
"This Ma Teng is still unwilling to face it!"
Yue Fei looked at the information in his hand and shook his head and laughed.
It doesn't matter whether you accept it or not. Anyway, after Liangzhou City is broken, if you don't join the Ming Dynasty, you will have nowhere to go.
At that time, there was no other choice. It would be better to join directly and honestly, so as to avoid embarrassment in the end.
Xi Zhicai smiled and said: "Ma Teng is still a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty after all, and it is normal to have some concerns."
Xi Zhicai has analyzed Ma Teng, and this explanation is the most reasonable.
"I hope so!" Yue Fei did not say much, just wait and see the final result.
Anyway, he will definitely not escape, it's just a matter of whether it will be embarrassing.
Xi Zhicai smiled without saying anything, he believed in his own judgment, Ma Teng must be like this.
