Three Kingdoms: I ran for my life all the way, but was forced to become the master of this world!

Chapter 173

Ma Teng took his two sons, Ma Xiu and Ma Tie, and three hundred guards, and after three days, he left Chen Cang and headed for Yecheng.

All the way east, they walked slowly. The time has reached the early winter, and the entire Guanzhong Road is bleak.

Although Ma Teng has put life and death aside, his heart is a little unsteady. Last time Cao Cao asked him to go to Xudu, he didn't go. Because he was worried that after he arrived in Xudu, he would not see His Majesty at all, and he would be directly killed by Cao Cao.

He is not afraid of death, but there is no point in dying like that. Die for His Majesty, die for the imperial court, he is not afraid. He did not regret what he had decreed.

This time, with His Majesty's holy will, he only wants to see His Majesty, then everyone will know that he Ma Teng has been an official to the Great Hongxuan.

But what if Cao Cao couldn't let him get to the palace? Among the princes in the world, his strength is the weakest, is it necessary for Cao Cao to use this means to remove him?

Ma Teng felt uneasy in his heart.

"Father, there is Chencheng in front!" Matthew, who was on horseback, broke the silence.

"Oh... Chencheng..." Ma Teng withdrew his chaotic thoughts.

Chengcheng was originally the land of Feng Yi County in Yongzhou, but now it already belonged to Cao Cao and was incorporated into Jing Zhaoyin. The last time he sent troops, although he was under the banner of attacking Chang'an, Ma Teng thought that he could recapture Feng Yi County.

However, Zhang and Zhong Xiu were much more powerful than he thought, causing them to lose their troops and return in vain.

"Let the soldier stop!"

"No!" Matthew immediately stopped the soldier.

Ma Teng looked back at the official road, and his heart was full of emotion, once he entered Yecheng, I don't know when I can come back, I don't know if I can come back alive!

After a while, a resolute expression flashed across Ma Teng's face.

"Go, enter the city!"

"No!" Matthew immediately urged the horse to the front, and let the three hundred guards hug Ma Teng towards the city!

In a short time, a city wall appeared in the distance. But at this moment, Ma Teng faintly heard the sound of horses' hooves.

"Stop!" Ma Teng shouted.

"Father, what happened?"

"Matthew Mattie, I hear the sound of horses' hooves behind me, look at who's coming?"

"Horse hooves?" Matthew looked at Ma Tie, and Ma Tie was also full of doubts, "Father, where is the sound of horses' hooves?"

"Right behind, it's the sound of our Xiliang war horse's hooves!" Ma Teng's face was very confident.

At this time, several experienced veterans lay down and pressed their ears tightly to the ground.

"General, there is indeed the sound of horses' hooves!"

Although Matthew and Ma Tie were surprised, they no longer doubted it at this time. So, Matthew led a dozen soldiers and rode back along the same road.

After a while, they returned with a puff of dust, but there were more horses in the crowd!

"Uncle..."

Ma Dai was covered in dust and looked extremely anxious, but after seeing Ma Teng, he seemed to be relieved and quickly turned over and dismounted.

"Bojan, why are you here? What happened? Seeing

Ma Dai, Ma Teng was full of doubts. He left Chen Cang and handed over all his soldiers to his son Ma Chao, who had excellent martial arts and had been familiar with reading military books and strategies since childhood, and it stands to reason that he was at ease. It's just that because Ma Chao is in the Western Liang, there is no opponent, it is inevitable to be proud, and sometimes he seems very impulsive. And although Ma Dai's martial arts are not as good as Ma Chao, he has a calm personality and is cautious in doing things, so he doesn't let Ma Dai assist Ma Chao.

Now Ma Dai hurried to chase them, apparently something had happened.

"Uncle, Jingzhou Mu Liu Jun sent a letter, telling my uncle to read it, and then make a decision on whether to go to Yecheng after reading it!" Ma Dai said as he took out a letter and handed it to Ma Teng.

"Jingzhou Mu Liu Jun's letter?" Ma Teng took the letter and frowned.

From Ma Dai's words, it is not difficult to see that Jingzhou Mu Liu Jun already knows that His Majesty let him enter Yecheng to become a big Hongxuan.

It stands to reason that His Majesty's holy decree is given to himself, why would Liu Chen know? And even if he knew, why did he write to himself? Is there really a conspiracy in this?

In his apprehension, Ma Teng slowly opened the letter.

The letter was not long, but Ma Teng looked at it for a long time, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and his face became more and more ugly.

"Uncle, what did Liu Zhoumu say in the letter?" Ma Dai asked softly.

"Bo Zhan, look..." Ma Teng handed the letter to Ma Dai.

"Three horses in the same groove!" Ma Dai was very puzzled, and Liu Jun's letter only said that Cao Cao had a dream of three horses in the same trough, and then summoned Ma Teng into Beijing, so that Ma Teng must be cautious.

"Father, what do you mean by three horses in the same trough?" Matthew also asked in amazement.

"This means that Cao Cao's hegemony will be swallowed up by three people surnamed Ma!" Ma Teng explained softly, and at the same time thought that if he had ambition and ambition, he had a prince. But to unify the world, he has not yet, because he has self-knowledge. Cao Cao is the lord of the north, several times stronger than him, how can he engulf Cao Cao's hegemony? He didn't dare to think about it!

He dared to go to Yecheng for another reason, that is, he would not pose a threat to Cao Cao.

But now it's different, Cao Cao has such a dream, then he won't let go of the person surnamed Ma. Even if he showed mediocrity and showed no intention of competing for the world, he could only make Cao Cao think that he was Taoguang Yangxi, and he couldn't let it go.

You must know that such a dream is absolutely forebodied, and no one dares not believe it!

"Uncle, then we are now..."

"Back to Chen Cang!"

Although Ma Teng is not afraid of death, he is not willing to die like this. Because in this way, even if he died, Cao Cao would not let go of their Ma family. The three of them are many, and there are so many people with the surname Ma, and it is not he Ma Teng alone, but the entire Xiliang Ma family. Now the only way to go back immediately is to prepare to face Cao Cao.

"No!"

Ma Teng let out a long sigh, from then on, the relationship between the Ma family and Cao Cao was endless.

Hanzhong, Southern Zhengcheng Taishou Mansion.

Since receiving His Majesty's order, Liu Bei and all the people under his command were very excited.

After capturing Hanzhong, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang also had a hint of worry, that is, what if Liu Zhang, the king of Shu, sent someone to take over Hanzhong? It was absolutely impossible to cede Hanzhong to Liu Zhang. But if they didn't give it, Liu Zhang would turn his back on them and send a large army to attack Hanzhong.

Although there are many soldiers and horses under their command now, these soldiers, either the soldiers and horses of Yizhou or the troops of Hanzhong, will be greatly affected when they really fight. It will take time to truly make them your own!

What's more, if Liu Zhang moves, Liu Cao will definitely move, Cao Cao and Sun Quan may move, and Hanzhong is a place where soldiers must fight!

Well, now, with the emperor's holy decree, if Liu Zhang wants to send troops again, it will be rebellion! Liu Jun is the same, they are all Han clansmen!

As for Cao Cao and Sun Quan, they would not easily send troops.
