After Ma Qiu surrendered, Fu Hong treated him well. After all, he was a well-known figure. He gave him a small banquet every three days and a big banquet every five days. He was granted the title of Military Advisor General and ordered him to command the old army. He often asked about the situation in Guanzhong and wanted to use his reputation. , quickly captured Guanzhong.
Shi Hu's three expeditions to Liangzhou resulted in many elites from Jie and Zhao stationed in Guanzhong, and these troops were once Ma Qiu's old troops.
After Wang Lang surrendered to the Xiang Kingdom, his Sima Duhong occupied Chang'an and claimed to be the Northern General of the Jin Campaign and the Governor of Yongzhou.
With Feng Yi and Zhang Ju as commanders, all the Jin and Yi people in Guanzhong responded with great momentum and sent heavy troops to garrison Tongguan, Puban and other key towns to resist Fu Hong.
"Du Hong's knife and pen are just an official. Without the king's conquest, a certain five thousand headquarters can get them for the king!" During the banquet, Ma Qiu said with a big tongue.
Not everyone can be a military advisor general. When the Shu Han Dynasty was founded, Liu Bei, the leader of Shu, appointed Zhuge Liang as a military advisor general. The military advisor general of the Wei State was Xun You, and the military advisor general of the Wu State was Zhu Ran. They were all famous figures at the time.
"Haha, the military advisor is famous all over the world, and taking Chang'an is not a problem." Fu Hong and Ma Qiu are old acquaintances. The two are quite fond of each other and are extremely close.
However, this kind of intimacy also made the Fu family and the powerful people in Guanzhong somewhat dissatisfied.
"Du Hong is from the Du family in Jingzhao. He is of no small importance. He has five thousand soldiers and horses..." Lu Polou said dissatisfied.
After traveling westward, Pu Hong's temperament changed drastically and he became more and more fond of hearing compliments.
Anyone who disobeyed him was often whipped. The former master, Bo Chengpu, said a word that did not suit his wishes and was beheaded in public.
"Hmph, the military advisor has been defeated repeatedly, so why do you have the face to brag about it?" Qiang Wang said with a glare.
"Don't be rude!" Fu Hong glanced at the two of them displeased.
Others dared not say anything, but Fu Jian, Fu Fa, Fu Luo and others looked at Ma Qiu with increasingly unkind eyes.
"The Du family in Jingzhao has long been ruined, so there is nothing to be afraid of! Now that Ran Min and Shi Zhi are at loggerheads, Hebei will definitely be in chaos for a long time. It is not a place for heroes to stand. Your Majesty should attack Guanzhong first, wait until the foundation is solid, and then go east to fight for the world. In less than five years, great things can be accomplished!" A flash of light flashed across Ma Qiu's hazy drunken eyes.
Although he has suffered repeated defeats, he still has some knowledge.
These words naturally entered Fu Hong's heart.
"The military advisor has really good advice! I have millions of people and a hundred thousand elites. How can Du Hong resist me? Min and Jun are nothing to be afraid of!"
Ma Qiu was falsely guilty, but Fu Hong was really drunk.
The journey west was so smooth that Fu Xiong captured Ma Qiu in one battle and collected 20,000 troops. No one dared to stop him at the city passes along the way.
We are about to enter the border of Hedong, and after crossing Hedong, Feng Yi has officially set foot in Guanzhong!
The two of them just drank one glass at a time until the crowd dispersed late at night.
In a deserted corner, Ma Qiu vomited out all the wine he drank and returned to his tent.
Sima Song Yan led dozens of soldiers to welcome him, "King Fu treats the general very well... When he enters the main pass one day, the general will definitely have a place."
The drunkenness on Ma Qiu's face has not receded, but his eyes are very sober, "Humph, how can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan! Can a mere strategist and general restrain a certain person? And Fu Hong treats me well, but his son may not treat me well!"
Song Yan was stunned. Seeing Ma Qiu's confident look, he suddenly had a very bad feeling. Ma Qiu was also the same when he attacked Liangzhou. He also mocked Xie Ai as "Ai young scholar" and was killed as a result. The horse returns...
"General...what do you want?"
"Fu Hong's tribe is quite powerful. If you combine with them, you can compete with Hebei in the east and pacify Guanzhong in the west!"
After hearing this, Song Yan looked at Ma Qiu blankly, as if looking at a crazy man with whimsical ideas. He followed Ran Min's order and rushed eastward in order to take Ran Min's place...
"No need to worry too much, someone has already taken action. Hum, Fu Hong will die tonight!" Ma Qiu laughed.
Song Yan's eyes darkened and he almost fell to the ground.
At this moment, there was a burst of noise from the Chinese army's tent, and occasionally there was the sound of soldiers being dispatched.
"Hahaha, my plan has worked!" Ma Qiu laughed wildly.
"General, take a rest for a while." Song Yan helped Ma Qiu return to camp to rest.
That night, as the Chinese army camp became more and more chaotic, Song Yan abandoned the sleeping Ma Qiu, rode his horse and disappeared into the night...
Hedong, Fenyin.
Wang Meng and Xue Qiang were looking eastward eagerly.
Ma Qiu is also a well-known figure for a long time. He followed Shi Hu in the wars in the north and south, and his reputation was so fierce that children in Bingzhou did not dare to cry at night when they heard his name.
Now he was captured by Fu Xiong in one battle, which shows Pu's fighting power.
After annexing Ma Qiu, Fu Hong gained momentum.
"Fu Hong should be one of the heroes in the world!" Xue Qiang looked down on the Yi tribe, but he was still amazed by the fighting power of the Di army.
"Meng loves to make friends with the world's heroes the most in his life. Fu Hong's march westward will definitely achieve great things!" Wang Meng said with a smile.
Whether or not to vote for Fu Hong is another matter, but it is always a good idea to make some friends.
Moreover, Fu Hong had many talents under his command, which attracted Wang Meng even more.
However, the two of them led dozens of followers and waited at the official road for half a day, but still saw no sign of the Di army.
Counting the time, we should enter the Hedong boundary today...
It was not until dusk that a servant rode back from the east and said, "Master, something big happened in Fu Hong's army."
Both of them were stunned, "What happened?"
"Ma Qiu poisoned Fu Hong at a banquet. The people who returned to the west were in chaos and scattered one after another. Fu Jian killed Ma Qiu and took over the old army. However, his momentum was not as good as before, and he returned to Fangtou!"
A dead leaf was picked up by the cold wind, fluttering, and fell on Wang Meng's head.
The two looked at each other.
At the end, Xue Qiang chuckled, "God bless the Fu family!"
Without Fu Hong, the Di people would definitely be worse than before.
Du Hong and Zhang Ju, who refused to defend Chang'an, were not ordinary people. They were local nobles and had the support of a group of powerful people.
Wang Meng also sighed, "Fu Hong entered the pass and was able to rise in five years, but something unexpected happened."
"The Fu family is already in decline. I recently heard that Jiangdong is planning to march north. Huan Wen is not as talented as Fu Hong. It is better to wait for a few months."
Xue Qiang's grandfather Xue Xing and father Xue Tao were county princes of Jin, and they both had posthumous titles. They were loyal to Jiangdong, so they naturally hoped that their friends would defect to the imperial court instead of being used by foreigners.
Wang Meng looked eastward, but his vision was blocked by the vast mountains, and he suddenly thought of the Black Cloud Mountain.
I don’t know what’s going on now.
Capturing Yanzhou does not mean a rise. The biggest disadvantage of the Black Cloud Army is that their family background is too small, and they can only be classified as the same figures as Liu Guo in Luozhou and Zhang Yu in Yuzhou.
"Although Fu Hong died, his son is very handsome and will definitely achieve great success in the future." Wang Meng observed the Fu family for many days.
Xue Qiang said: "You will think about them. Fu Jian retreats to Fangtou. The situation is over. Guanzhong will be owned by the imperial court one day."
"Wei Ming might as well wait and see. Now that the world is in chaos and the situation is unclear, I should take refuge in Huashan Mountain to study and learn, waiting for the time of heaven."
"In the future, Huan Wen will march out of Guanzhong during the Northern Expedition. Jing Lue will stay in Huashan, which is the best choice." Xue Qiang turned the horse's head and headed towards Fenshui Fort.
