Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 339
[Chapter 339]
“Borrowing troops is naturally necessary, but we need to find out the attitudes of Ma Chong and Ma Jin at the moment.” After pondering for a while, Zhao Xu said, “If you rashly lead troops to Qinzhou, it will definitely directly trigger a war ”
Ma Yuan nodded, “Nephew, Your Highness is right, first send someone to tell Ma Chong and Ma Jin that you are still alive.”
After a pause, he said: “If they find out about this, they will refuse If they admit it, let them come to Yancheng with the elders of the Ma family to re-establish your position as the head of the Ma family.” After thinking for a
while, he continued: “You still have to send your Highness just now .” The news obtained is also sent back to let the clan elders know, so that they can evaluate whether it is beneficial for the Ma family if you are the head of the family, or whether it is beneficial for the Ma family if Ma Chong is the head of the house.”
Ma Han deeply agreed.
When his father was around, the Ma family was the first powerful family to do business with King Yan.
After Ma Chong took the position of Patriarch, he almost broke off contact with King Yan.
This prevented the Ma family from getting artillery from King Yan.
If the elders of the Ma family knew that King Yan supported him, they would definitely reconsider.
Of course, he still believed that the elders of the Ma family were only deceived by Ma Jin.
If it is known that he is still alive, he will definitely support him to sit on the position of Patriarch.
“In this case, everything is only subject to the arrangement of my uncle and His Highness.” Ma Han said.
Ma Yuan patted Ma Han’s shoulder heavily, “Don’t forget, I am also an old member of the Ma family, and now I am a shepherd of Jinzhou, other clan elders will definitely know how to choose.”
Zhao Xu listened, but only to Ma The source expressed cautious optimism.
Ma Chong and Ma Jin are well aware of the consequences of losing their authority.
How could he easily hand over the rights of the Ma family.
I am afraid that Mahan will inevitably go through a catastrophe when he takes home the position of master.
It was with this in mind that he decided to send someone to Xiancheng first.
If Ma Chong and Ma Jinju didn’t cooperate, Ma Han would be famous if he returned with his troops.
After discussing this matter, Zhao Xu immediately sent people to Qinzhou.
Three more people stayed at the palace for lunch.
In the afternoon, Mo Kuan went to Yanguan.
He will hand over to Mo Yu at Yanguan.
The 70,000 imperial troops stationed at Yanguan went to Tongguan, and the soldiers of the palace will be stationed there from now on.
Ma Yuan was not in a hurry to go to Jinzhou, but waited for news from Qinzhou in Yancheng with Ma Han.
As for the borrowing of soldiers, Zhao Xu decided to prepare in advance.
So Chang Wei was called over.
“Since the emperor has acquiesced in this matter, it will be easy to handle. In the opinion of the last general, it is enough to give Ma Han 30,000 people.” Chang Wei said.
In his opinion, the troops of the Ma family are inferior to Xiliang.
Moreover, if there is a civil strife in the Ma family, there will naturally be someone on Ma Han’s side.
Unable to fight against the enemy, Ma Jin may not be able to use all the troops of the Ma family.
This number is about the same as what Zhao Xu thought, he said: “That’s it, go back and get ready to set off with Ma Han at any time.”
“Yes, Your Highness.” Chang Wei agreed, turned and left.
Three days later.
The cavalry from Yancheng arrived in Xiancheng.
Arriving at Ma’s mansion, they were led to meet Ma Chong.
“When General Ma Jin went to Yancheng, he made an agreement with His Royal Highness that once there was news of Ma Han, he would come to inform the Ma family. Now that Ma Han survived a catastrophe and defected to the King of Yan, His Highness sent me here to tell you about the matter. Ma family.” The cavalry general said loudly.
When Ma Chong heard this, there was no expression on his face, he said: “I already know about this, please go back.”
The general of the cavalry was stunned for a moment, and he said: “Your Highness also invites your lord and the elders of the Ma family to go to Yancheng to establish the position of Patriarch Ma Han, and I hope your lord will give you a reply.”
The expression on Ma Chong’s face finally changed, and he sneered. “You just need to tell King Yan when you go back, he is not in charge of my Ma family’s affairs.” After
finishing speaking, Ma Chong left with a flick of his sleeves.
The cavalry general frowned and had no choice but to turn around and leave.
After the figures of the cavalry generals disappeared, Ma Chong returned to the main hall, followed by Ma Jin who had been hiding in the side room.
At this moment, Ma Jin looked out with a gloomy face, and he called out, “Come here.” After the words
fell, a soldier came in response.
“Go to the camp immediately and tell Ma Chang to lead a team of cavalry to intercept and kill King Yan’s cavalry who came to deliver the letter, leaving only one alive.” Ma Jin said sharply.
“Yes, General.” After answering yes, the soldier turned and left.
After the soldiers disappeared, Ma Chong sat down on the chair, “The king of Yan is telling us clearly that he has taken care of the affairs of the Ma family, and will support Ma Han to be the head of the family.”
For several days A few days ago, they learned from Dou’s family that Ma Han was still alive.
This matter was undoubtedly a blow to them.
And because of this matter, there was an uproar in the capital.
All the children of the Ma family in the capital knew about it, and the news naturally reached the old ears of the Ma family.
That day, the elders of the Ma family found them and asked them to take Ma Han back and let Ma Han take over the Ma family.
Ma Jin’s eyes flickered fiercely, and he said: “It’s hard to get the power of the Ma family, how can we just hand it over like this, I think it’s better not to do it, but to keep on doing it.”
Ma Chong was calm on the surface, but he was very flustered in his heart.
Although being the head of the house these days, the power is in Ma Jin’s hands.
But he really tasted the joy of being the head of the family.
In Xiancheng, the silver is at his disposal, and the oiran in the city will come and go as soon as he is called.
How could he give up such a life so easily.
What’s more, once Mahan comes back, he will definitely investigate the assassination of him and his father.
Once the truth comes to light, both he and Ma Jin will die without a place to bury them.
So, it is better to take a risk.
So he said, “Uncle, what plans do you have?”
Ma Jin narrowed his eyes slightly, “Since the matter of the Patriarch needs to be discussed by the elders, and their heart is for Ma Han, then we will kill all the elders, and then we will Firmly control the Ma family’s soldiers and horses, and if the King of Yan wants to meddle in this business, he will fight with him.”
“But if we take this path, we will not be able to turn back.” Ma Chong was startled.
He is just a slutty slut who is greedy and romantic, and he was also surprised that Ma Jin made such a ruthless decision.
“Do we still have a way out?” Ma Jin’s eyes were bloodshot.
He hasn’t slept well these days, and this is the only way he can think of.
Otherwise, if Mahan comes back, he will definitely die.
By doing so, maybe he still has a chance.
Ma Chong heard the words and nodded silently.
At this moment, on the official road at the east gate of Xiancheng, the cavalry from Yanzhou were returning to Yanzhou on horseback.
They hadn’t traveled ten miles when they saw a group of horse cavalry chasing them and walking alongside them.
The leading general among them said: “Ma Jin wants to kill you, this road can’t go, come with me quickly.” The
Yanzhou cavalry general was shocked when he heard this, hesitated for a moment, he followed the general along a small road.
After traveling for a few miles, they stopped by the river, and the general said: “I am issuing an order.”
