At this time, bonfires had been lit around, and tables and tables were placed in the open space.
"General Andi, General Anqiang, please!"
Yang Ling smiled and asked Ma Teng, Han Sui and others to take a seat.
It didn't take long for the soldiers to bring all kinds of delicacies to everyone.
Several jars of Moutai wine were opened, and the aroma of wine overflowed.
Everyone in Xiliang, who always likes to drink heavily, has their Adam's apple rolling and they can't wait to pick up the wine immediately!
When Yang Ling saw this, he smiled slightly, picked up the wine glass in his hand, and said with a smile,
"Come, let us wish you a great victory today!"
Everyone responded loudly and drank all the white wine in their glasses.
After a glass of wine, the atmosphere at the table became noticeably warmer.
"To be able to defeat the Bingzhou Army today, the two generals are indispensable."
Yang Ling smiled.
"Wuguan Zhonglang said too harshly, but we should express our gratitude to you!"
Han Sui waved his hand quickly.
Yang Ling was being polite, but how could they still be convinced?
If Yang Ling hadn't led the army to arrive in time, I'm afraid all the Xiliang people would have become the dead souls of high-ranking officials!
Ma Teng pondered for a moment, and then said seriously,
"We were previously seduced by senior officials, so we rebelled against the imperial court. Now we are willing to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side. I wonder if General Wu Guanzhong is willing to accept us?"
"General Andi's ability to find his way back is truly commendable! Please rest assured, the Prime Minister definitely wants this!"
Yang Ling said with a smile.
Not to mention the surrender of Ma Teng and others, they can directly regain Sili Prefecture and Liang Prefecture.
Just having two great generals, Ma Chao and Pang De, can be considered a full harvest!
After hearing Yang Ling's words, Ma Teng and Han Sui also breathed a sigh of relief.
"General with five senses, how about this, I go back to Xudu with you to meet the prime minister?"
Ma Teng said tentatively.
Yang Ling looked at him steadily, but smiled and said,
"Liangzhou and Silizhou are busy with affairs. I'm afraid General Andi won't be able to do anything at all."
"In my opinion, it would be better for you to stay in Guanzhong and let me go back with you to meet the Prime Minister."
"My son's bravery is truly rare in the world."
"The Prime Minister has always loved strong generals, and he will definitely reuse your son!"
Yang Ling knew very well what Ma Teng meant.
He planned to enter the court as an official and act as a hostage to reassure Cao Cao.
Anyone else wouldn't think there was anything wrong with it.
But Yang Ling is different. He is well aware of the process of history.
Historically, Ma Teng also entered the court as a hostage, allowing Ma Chao to inherit his army.
As a result, Ma Chao, a filial son, ignored his father's life and colluded with Han Sui to start a rebellion.
In the end, all three clans, including his father Ma Teng and two brothers Ma Xiu and Ma Tie, were wiped out!
Yang Ling didn't want to make the same mistake again, so she rejected Ma Teng's proposal.
Ma Teng couldn't help but be a little confused about Yang Ling's rejection.
But now that Yang Ling is in control of the situation, he can only follow Yang Ling's instructions.
"Meng Qi, come here!"
Ma Teng called Ma Chao, who was not far away.
"What are your orders from father?"
"The general with five sense organs has said that he intends to recruit you to serve as an official in the court."
Ma Teng told Ma Chao what Yang Ling meant.
"What? I don't want to become an official in the court!"
Ma Chao refused without thinking.
Just kidding, the Ma family is like a local emperor in Guanzhong and Liangzhou.
After eating enough to support yourself, you go to the court to serve as an official, and you are always criticized?
"Meng Qi!"
Ma Teng glared, quickly put on a smile and said to Yang Ling,
"Don't blame me, Mr. Geng. Meng Qi is just too young and a little arrogant. Please let me persuade him!"
"It's okay. Can you still call me a young man if you're not so angry?"
Yang Ling waved his hand magnanimously.
Ma Chao in history can be described as an extraordinary hero.
He united the princes of Guanzhong, Han Sui, and others to jointly resist Cao Cao, which once posed a great threat to Cao Cao.
After the failure, he first attached himself to Zhang Lu of Hanzhong, and then went to Liu Bei.
Although after the establishment of the Shu Han Dynasty, he was promoted to a general of hussars, led as a herdsman in Liangzhou, and was granted the title of Marquis of Zhuxiang, Liu Bei did not dare to reuse him.
After all, he has a cruel personality and can abandon his wife, children, father, and brothers all for the sake of his great cause.
Liu Bei must guard against such people!
In the end, Ma Chao was only forty-seven and died in depression!
Now when Ma Chao was young, it was normal for him to have an unruly personality.
If you want to conquer him, you must temper his temperament.
Ma Teng called Ma Chao to the corner and whispered,
"Meng Qi, the situation is not good for us now. If you want our Ma family to continue to develop, you must rely on Yang Ling."
"Who does Yang Ling deserve to be attached to?"
Ma Chao, who was proud and arrogant, said unconvinced.
Ma Teng was immediately angry and funny, but he could only patiently say,
"You are really short-sighted! Isn't it thanks to Yang Ling that we and your Uncle Han are in this situation?!"
"If you keep fooling around, don't blame your father for being unkind!"
Seeing his father's face so serious, Ma Chao had no choice but to say reluctantly,
"Kid, I remember."
"That's pretty much it."
Ma Teng showed a happy smile, turned around and took Ma Chao to Yang Ling again.
"The General with Five Features, the Commander in Chief, Quanzi has said that he is willing to follow Sir. Meng Qi, haven't you met the General with the Five Features in the title role soon?"
"Meng Qi has seen the handsome general with great facial features!"
Ma Chao groaned, his face full of displeasure.
"General Meng Qi, there is no need to be polite."
Yang Ling didn't pay too much attention.
As long as Ma Chao falls into his hands, he is confident that the horse will obey him!
Ma Teng breathed a sigh of relief and waved to Ma Xiu and Ma Tie again.
"Come on, you all have met the General with five senses!"
Now that he has decided to join Cao Cao, Ma Teng simply plans to let his sons join the court as officials, so as to promote the Ma family.
"I've seen the general with great facial features!"
After some introductions, four young talents from the Ma family, Ma Chao, Ma Xiu, Ma Tie and Ma Dai, were all successfully acquired by Yang Ling.
So far, three of the famous Five Tiger Generals of Shu have been intercepted by Yang Ling!
…
After the banquet, Ma Chao returned to his tent and complained somewhat unhappily,
"Father is really confused. He actually asked me to listen to that guy Yang Ling's orders."
"That's right, Yang Ling is just a little clever. When it comes to skills, even if he is ten, he is no match for my elder brother."
"If you ask me, he should listen to his elder brother."
"That's right!"
Ma Xiu, Ma Tie and Ma Dai all nodded in agreement.
But after hearing this, Ma Yunlu couldn't help but said,
"Don't forget that Lu Bu, who was once the best in the world, died in his hands!"
"Tch! I heard that it was him who attacked first, and that's why Lu Bu died!"
"Who do you think you are a hero if you act like this?"
Matthew and Ma Tie immediately retorted.
"You can't say that. In a life-and-death fight, there is no room for carelessness."
Ma Yunlu hummed.
