Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

At this moment, Ma Su's location is no longer in Sanba, but in Zitong County, south of Hanshou. In more than half a month, he successively wiped out all the big bandits in the northern part of Shu, shocking the clan thieves everywhere.

This speed is not unsatisfactory, and it may even be possible to counter the rebellion faster than he promised.

But the development of the imperial court was faster than Ma Su imagined. The local faction was already lacking in confidence, but they were all frightened when they saw the tough attitude of the imperial court. Later, he was blackmailed by Zhuge Liang and was basically beaten to death.

And Ma Su's death plan was stopped in advance.

"No! I don't accept it!" Ma Su was very dissatisfied with this. How could he be so deceptive?

What I want is to fight to the death with the local faction, but as a result, you treat me as the bad guy and you are the bad guy to scare others. Even if you are the prime minister, you can't bully others like this!

I'm not convinced!

"Ahem...General Ma, please be patient. His Majesty has yet to finish the reward for you." The person who came to inform Ma Di this time was Chen Zhen, the minister's order. Having such a high-ranking official come can also tell the attitude of the palace.

Ma Su, you did a good job. If it weren't for you, you might not have been able to handle it so easily this time. But for the sake of the overall situation, I'm sorry that I have to wrong you first.

Chen Zhen brought a reward edict sealed by Liu Chan. In addition to the reward of gold, silver and silk, there was also an promotion of military rank!

"General Youchang, from today on, you will be the auxiliary general of my great Han Dynasty!" Chen Zhen finished reading and handed it to Ma Su himself and said with a smile.

"It's really thanks to you this time!"

Seeing this improvement, even Ma Su, who had never cared about this, was shocked.

General of the auxiliary country! What a nice name!

This position was a newly created secondary permanent general in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and was the highest military attache under the generals of the four expeditions and four towns of the Han Dynasty.

Ma Di was still a general with no rank last year, and he had only been appointed as the captain of the Qiang Guard for a few months. For him, if he wants to improve further, he will probably have to wait a year or two.

Unexpectedly, in order to appease Ma Su, the Prime Minister's Office made an exception with a wave of his hand.

Although the local faction will feel uncomfortable, but it’s now this time, what can you do?

How about I call Ma Su back? After all, the Prime Minister's Mansion is still short of manpower...

Ma Su could also feel that the court really valued him.

but……

"I'm still not convinced! I'm almost done here, I can't just give up halfway!" Ma Su spread his hands directly and said to Chen Zhen angrily.

"It's useless for anyone to come today! I, Ma Di, will never go to Hanzhong until I finish pacifying the thieves and bandits of the Shu Sect!"

"If His Majesty and the Prime Minister feel that something is wrong, they can kill him!"

However, before Ma Su finished speaking, a soldier walked in from outside and handed over his hand to Ma Su to report.

"Your Majesty! The former general's men are outside, coming angrily to question him!"

"Wu Ban? What is he here for?"

"It is said that I want an explanation from you, the general. It is said that he went to Shu County to suppress and passed through Mianzhu. Your troops looted all the flags carried by his army..."

Ma Su: "..."

Those brats started making trouble again...

"Ahem...Chen Shangshu, you are busy first, I will go to Hanzhong first." Ma Su reacted very quickly, grabbed the edict back and turned around to leave.

"Liu Yin went to Mianzhu to gather all the troops and go to Nanzheng, so I took the first step. As for General Wu's envoy, I told him that Ma Su is not here!"

Well, although Ma Su is still not very satisfied, what can he do.

To use our Lao Li's words, the official level will crush people to death. If Zhuge Liang gets angry if he continues to make a fuss, it would be bad to turn around and prevent him from going to the battlefield.

As for believing that Zhuge Liang will kill him with a military order... just smile, who has been killed by a military order these days?

The most important thing is that Ma Di also realized Zhuge Liang's intention of appointing him as the prefect of Hanzhong.

Obviously, in this position, there is basically no other possibility except to prepare for the next Northern Expedition. By next autumn at the latest, the Shu Han army will leave Qishan again.

This is very good news for Ma Su.

After writing a letter to Chengdu to handle the remaining matters, Fen Liuyin went to Mianzhu to bring out his troops. Then Ma Di quickly led his troops northward, all the way to Hanzhong and Nanzheng.

Although Hanzhong County is a county in name, its territory is not much smaller than Sanba. It is surrounded by mountains on all sides, with the Han River flowing eastwards and a pleasant climate, making it a very good area.

Ever since the old Liu Hanzhong battle disgusted him and drove him away, this place has become an important northern town of Shu Han.

Wei Yan was previously responsible for guarding the city, but because Wei Yan was transferred to the north to guard the more important Anding County, Ma Di took over.

After quickly handing over power, Ma Di also became the prefect of Hanzhong.

"Hanzhong County is so rich, both in terms of population and taxation?" Ma Di was shocked after seeing a series of materials from household registration to taxation.

After traveling through time for nearly four years, this is the first time Ma Di has seen such a wealthy county.

"Hanzhong County was planned by the former prime minister personally as a forward position for the Northern Expedition. And because the local aristocratic families were driven away in the Battle of Hanzhong, this was also the county with the strongest control by the Han Dynasty." Liu Yin answered honestly, Answered Ma Su's doubts.

"There are more than ten thousand troops stationed here. It is connected to Shangyong in the east, Tianshui in the north, and Yinping, the military capital, in the west. It is the gateway to Shu. The general is responsible for guarding this place, which means that you have been reused!"

"You don't need to teach me this, I can still see it." Ma Su didn't express anything about this, just waved his hand gently.

In theory, this is the safest place in Shu Han now, and there is basically no possibility of military disaster. Although the Qiang and Di people in Yinping, Wudu, were in rebellion, they could not cross Yangping Pass.

But this is not good news for Ma Su. He really doesn't want to waste his good time in the office.

What he wants is a river of blood!

So after thinking carefully for a while, Ma Di turned his attention to the place that countless people were paying attention to.

Ziwu Valley!

"Xiuren, I have a very bold idea..."

"General, the Prime Minister also has a very complete set of laws!" Liu Yin replied immediately, handing over helplessly.

Sure enough, the general started to have fun as soon as no one was in charge of him... Well, it seemed that he had a lot of fun in someone's hands.

I just don’t know what my plan is this time…

Then Liu Yin saw Ma Di draw a line on the map with a gradually abnormal smile. This line starts from Nanzheng, passes through the mountains and ridges, and connects to Chang'an!

"Let's go! Let's go to Ziwu Valley to stab Cao Wei in the butt!"

"General, don't be joking!!!"

At the same time, in Luoyang, the capital of Cao Wei, Cao Zhen, who had been guarding Chang'an, made a rare return. In front of Cao Rui, he paralyzed a map in front of Cao Rui.

"Your Majesty! Western Shu has been invaded one after another in recent years, which is detrimental to the country's prestige! Now our soldiers in Guanzhong have been tempered properly, and the morale of the soldiers in Liangzhou is high. It is a good time to attack Shu!"
