Chapter 526 Jia Wenhe has good intentions
Just as Han Sui asked to see Ma Teng alone, the second housekeeper Peng Jian of the Ma Mansion could feel a strange smell.
A few days ago, Ma Teng called Han Sui and Pang De to the mansion and discussed it for a long time. Peng Jian had a bad feeling. This time, after Ma Teng met Han Sui, he was obviously worried. Even at the dinner table in the evening, he did not look at his two sons Ma Tie and Ma Xiu.
According to the current status and power of Xiliang, there are not many things that can make Ma Teng hesitate on his face, so Peng Jian secretly kept a few more thoughts. After his observation in the next few days, he found that Ma Teng would sometimes call Han Sui to the mansion in the name of discussing military affairs, but did not let his general Pang De come over, which seemed a bit abnormal.
Then Peng Jian secretly received a secret report from Yue Yun and Yang Jiashao, saying that the grassroots officers in the Xiliang Army have been frequently mobilized recently, and many officers who are accepting and friendly to Jin State were transferred elsewhere, saying that they would form a new army according to the Jin State model.
Peng Jian combined the various situations and analyzed them. The result was a speculation that shocked him. So he found an opportunity to go out of the house to buy supplies and quickly sent this emergency information to the Shadow in the hands of Jia Xu, the highest person in charge of Liangzhou.
According to the division of labor between Zhao Xing and Guan Yu and Jia Xu, Guan Yu was mainly responsible for foreign operations and defending the security of Liangguo, while Jia Xu was mainly responsible for making suggestions and predicting and evaluating the situation in Liangzhou. Since we need to predict and evaluate the situation, information and information must not be missing, so Jia Xu naturally has to be responsible for the specific actions of the Shadow Team members in Liangzhou.
After receiving Peng Jian’s secret report, Jia Xu was not surprised at all. Instead, he said thoughtfully: “Oh, after enduring for so many years, I still can’t help it anymore. If I had known today, why would I have been there?”
Jia Xu only asked the team members who passed the message in the middle to bring back eight words to Peng Jian, namely: "Report in time and wait and see the changes", as if he turned a blind eye to the upcoming changes in the Xiliang army. After the team member left overnight, Jia Xu immediately asked Guan Yu, Tian Feng, Zhang Xiu, Hu Cheer and others to tell everyone about the abnormal movements in the Xiliang army, and also told them his analysis.
Jia Xu said: "From Ma Teng's recent abnormal actions and abnormal movements in the Western Liang army, Ma Teng has decided to be prevented by Jin State, but I don't know if he has made up his mind to rebel against Jin State. We should be more careful about Han Sui!"
Tian Feng, who was a military advisor, continued Jia Xu's analysis and said: "Last year, Ma Teng also had an abnormal situation for a while. Later, he learned that he was a little shaken in his position. Is there still Luoyang behind this abnormal movement?"
Jia Xu nodded, agreed with Tian Feng's analysis, and then said: "I am ordering the Shadow Team members to investigate. News should be heard back soon. Although Ma Teng is ambitious, he is hesitant. If no one instigates him, and now the Ma family will marry his eldest daughter to General Zhao Zilong, they should not make unwise choices. I am only worried that Han Sui, his military advisor, will be insidious and cunning, and will interfere with him, and encourage Ma Teng to rebel. What's more, if Luoyang directly bypasses Ma Teng and Han Sui in secret contact, I am afraid that a huge change will occur in the Xiliang army soon!"
When Hu Cheer heard this, he said, "Since Ma Teng is hesitant, can we completely wipe out some of Ma Teng's insignificant thoughts like Guochang last time reminded the Xiliang army when many things had not yet happened?"
Zhang Xiu, who was standing by, also said: "Military advisor, you can rest assured. Since I took over as the commander of the Canglang Army, I have trained my troops carefully and read military strategies day and night. Although Xiu is not talented and dare not compare with other commanders, it can ensure that the Canglang Army's combat power is only increased and not reduced. Once it needs to be dispatched, don't say that the Xiliang Army now has 30,000 people, even if there are tens of thousands more, it is difficult for him to resist it!"
Seeing Zhang Xiu's eagerness to make meritorious achievements, several people laughed out loud. Jia Xu said: "If you follow common sense, you should act according to what Chief Yun said and prevent problems before it happens. But have you ever thought that this change in Xiliang is actually an opportunity for Jin State? Guochang once decided to deal with Ma Teng, Xiliang, since he decided to fight against this plan, but this time is a great time to close the net!"
Tian Feng vaguely guessed something from Jia Xu's words, but he didn't say anything. Guan Yu asked in a little uncertain way: "How has the rebellion of Xiliang become our opportunity? Please ask the military advisor to explain in detail."
Jia Xu then continued: "Guochang is generous and kind. He never advocates eliminating the roots of dissidents, and will often give up his life. For Ma Teng, Xiliang, over the years, Guochang has mainly focused on appeasement and win over, and has never tried to remove it. This behavior can naturally gain a lot of people's hearts and fame, but it will also leave many hidden dangers. Ma Teng now has the four counties of Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan and Dunhuang, and the two vassal states Juyan and Zhangye. The territory is even greater than that of Liang Kingdom and there are many six counties left, and it lies across the front of Jin Kingdom's westward advance. If this variable cannot be completely solved, how can Guochang's plan to enter the Western Regions?"
After hearing Jia Xu's words, the few people fell into deep thought. As Jia Xu said, although Zhao Xing was rumored to be a cruel and cunning demon by many people with ulterior motives, the generals who followed Zhao Xing had never felt this way. Zhao Xing's love and care for his generals were obvious to all, and the generous and charity of the people under his rule were unattainable. But this became a rope, tied up Zhao Xing's hands and feet, so he had no clear attitude towards Ma Teng, who was swaying left and right, and wasted a great opportunity for the Jin army to advance westward.
After a moment, Guan Yu first spoke: "It is rare that the military advisors think about Guochang everywhere, but this time they want to pretend to be a villain who will never save him!"
Jia Xu waved his hand quickly to correct Guan Yu's statement: "Chang Yun dare not speak like this. Although we cannot be lenient with Ma Teng, the descendants of the Ma family need to protect them secretly to avoid the assassination of Ma Teng's two sons, Ma Xiu, Ma Tie and his descendants. If this remark today reached Jin Ma Chao's ears, I am afraid that the indifferent young man would come to me with a tiger-headed golden spear to seek revenge!"
"Military advisors don't be afraid. Ma Teng's two-faced and three-killing sword will destroy himself. What's the matter with you? Ma Chao really wants to come to seek revenge on you, so I will fight him! Others are afraid of the tiger-headed gilt spear in Ma Chao's hand, but I am not afraid of him in the hundred birds and phoenix spear in my hand!" Zhang Xiu stood up with a determined look on his face, and his words made several people laugh.
Jia Xu smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, General Zhang, what you said just now is just a joke. The few people we met today are all confidants under Guochang. If you can weigh the priorities of the matter, how can you be the villain who is prone to the tongue?"
Zhang Xiu scratched his forehead a few embarrassedly and sat down quietly again.
Jia Xu continued: "Although our strategy is to wait and see, in order to prevent the situation from deteriorating and spreading, the two troops of the Canglang Army and Huang Xuan Division must be mobilized secretly, aiming at Lingju and Jincheng, hiding the army near Didao. Once Jincheng is attacked, send troops to rescue immediately!"
