With a slight roll of his eyes, Ma Chao changed the subject and continued: "If we can defeat Cao Pi, we can fight for power, successfully take over Cao Wei's territory, and then compete with Xi Yu in the world."

"Besides this, I think Xi Yu is also very important to whether we are sincerely recruiting."

"Because now the emperor is in Qingxu, in the hands of Xi Yu, and the two of them have always been treated as uncle and nephew. I think the emperor will be more sincere to him than to Cao Pi."

"This also means that Duke Sheng Guogong's status in the future must be extraordinary. If we can be used by him, it is not impossible. After all, for now, we have racked our brains to defend Xiliang, let alone Tong Xiyu

Compete in the world?"

"Instead of struggling to survive in this troubled world, we might as well..."

After hearing what he said, Ma Teng and his two other brothers looked surprised. After looking at each other, they began to think carefully, Xi Yu...

Looking back on this person, from the time he first entered Cao Cao's camp, to his friendship with Cao Cao, and being highly valued, to Cao Cao's death, and his relationship with Cao Wei, until today, it seems that he has never suffered a defeat!

Whether in war strategy or local internal affairs, he has his own merits.

He has never been defeated in any war he has participated in, and the Qingxu land he currently owns has been developed differently from anywhere else in the world.

Although you are in Xiliang, most of the businessmen who come and go have been to Qingxu. According to them, it is a paradise on earth. Once you have been there, you will never forget it and never want to leave!

When they thought of the envy and yearning in the eyes of those who went to Qingxu, several people were touched.

In fact...compared to living a difficult and wandering life in Xiliang, it is better to fight this battle first.

Cao Pi was eyeing Xiliang with covetous eyes and couldn't justify not fighting him.

He wants to use Xiliang as a springboard to successfully march into Sichuan and Shu. Does this mean that he doesn't take Xiliang and himself seriously at all? Or does he think that Xiliang is already in Cao Wei's pocket?

On the other hand, Sheng Guogong, although he had his own little thoughts, he put everything on the table. Whether to fight or not to fight, the choice is yours. Whether to surrender or surrender, it is up to you.

This gives people a far happier feeling than Cao Pi's, and it also makes people feel more comfortable.

Of course, what's more important is that the Xiliang Ma family doesn't have a bad impression of Xi Yu.

What the Xiliang Ma family admires the most is those who have strength.

Whether it was Xi Yu's strategizing of the war or the promotion of local internal affairs, he was rare in the world and could not be matched by them.

Therefore, only one Xiyu can make the Ma family and even Ma Chao willingly serve as their master!

Of course, all this needs to wait until the battle is over.

"Okay, now that everyone has an idea about this, let's fight with all our strength! Even if we really lose in the end, we have to let people see our sincerity and let the world see the power of my Xiliang man.

Fierce and heroic!"

"promise!"

Everyone bent down and held their hands, a fighting spirit rising from the bottom of their hearts.

Among them, Ma Chao is the best.

He decisively clasped his fists, took a step forward and shouted loudly: "Commander Father, if you ask me to be the vanguard, I will definitely kill Cao Wei's army in fear!"

"My lord, I hope we can go together!"

The moment he finished speaking, Pound also stood up.

In Xiliang, apart from Ma Chao, Pang De was the most brave and adept at fighting under Ma Teng. He was very popular in Xiliang and was a person that no one dared to ignore.

He had already roughly understood what Ma Teng and others were thinking just now, and he had a better idea of ​​how to proceed in the future, so he took the initiative to ask for orders.

Since you won't always be in a corner, shrinking in Xiliang, you must make something famous and make your name known to everyone in the world!

The hegemony that cannot be achieved in a small place like Xiliang may not be possible in the future...

"The general believes that the army should continue to advance eastward, trying to be the first to attack before Tianshui Pass, so as to catch the enemy by surprise!"

"Since the formation of the Flying Bear Army, the Iron Cavalry of Xiliang, later the Tiger and Wolf Cavalry, and now the Iron Cavalry of today, have gone through years of ups and downs and countless battles, and have never been afraid of any enemy!"

"Although Cao Pi's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is strong, it is only stronger because Cao Cao is still alive and its founder Xi Yu. But time flies and time has changed. The former founder personally broke the legend he created and defeated the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry!"

"What Xi Yu, the most powerful general in the world, can do, Meng Qi, who is also known as the two heroes by the Xiliang Qiang people, can also do it!"

After Pang De finished speaking, he glanced at Ma Chao beside him, who smiled slightly and said proudly: "That's how it should be!"

"good!"

Seeing this, Ma Teng stood up decisively. With his hair tied behind his head, his hair was fluttering lightly. He waved his big hand in a high-spirited manner and said: "You are not afraid of danger and dare to fight. It is really a blessing for me, Ma Teng."

!”

"Come here, cook some wine and have a banquet. Today I will have a drink with everyone, and tomorrow I will raise an army against Chang'an, so that even Cao Pi, my son, will know how powerful I am, a man from Xiliang!"

"promise!"

······

The west is in turmoil because of the upcoming war, but the land of Qingxu is as peaceful and peaceful as ever.

Although there were numerous refugees in Yanzhou due to floods, there was no major turmoil.

Even in the eyes of many locals, life seems to be much better than before.

This is because since the war with Cao Pi ended, Xi Yu spent more time managing the military and internal affairs within the territory.

He carefully sorted out the soldiers, horses and government affairs in his hands.

Because a disaster had just occurred in Yanzhou, he needed to be more detailed in his arrangements.

After all, the foundation determines the building. Only by laying a solid foundation can we create a "Land of Qingxu" again!

However, he, who was always busy with government affairs, had something quite important to do that night.

In the Chinese army camp in Xiapi, Xuzhou, a grand banquet is about to begin.

Xi Yu arrived together with all the senior officers and generals under his command.

In addition, there is also a special guest——Lu Su!

Historically, Lu Su was born into a noble family. His father died when he was young and he was raised by his grandmother.

He is tall and tall, has a bold personality, likes reading, riding and shooting.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he saw that the imperial court was weak, officials were corrupt, and the society was in turmoil, so he often summoned young people from the countryside to practice martial arts.

He was also generous and generous, and was deeply admired by the villagers.

At that time, Zhou Yu was the chief of Juchao. He asked Lu Su for help due to lack of food. Lu Su generously donated a warehouse of three thousand dendrobium to Zhou Yu.

From then on, the two became good friends and planned big things together.

In 200 AD, under the recommendation of Zhou Yu, Lu Su led his subordinates to defect to Sun Quan and proposed a strategic plan for him to dominate Jiangdong, which was appreciated by Sun Quan.

In 208 AD, Cao Cao led his army southward, and many of Sun Quan's subordinates surrendered. However, Lu Su and Zhou Yu fought against all odds and decided to take charge.
