Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

Ma Liang and Ma Bing each sat at a table.

There was a bamboo slip and document placed in front of each of them, and the two of them read it carefully.

Although Ma Bing was only the recording office clerk of Thieves Cao's Mansion and a minor official with a salary of 300 shi, Ma Liang often called him to handle government affairs.

The Wuchang of the Ma family is famous in Jingzhou... But Ma Liang's three elder brothers Ma Bochang, Ma Zhongchang and Ma Shuchang have no intention of official career. In addition to Ma Liang's younger brother Ma Su Ma Youchang, those who can shoulder the heavy responsibility of the Ma family in the future are also The only son left was Ma Bing.

Before he got the crown, Ma Liang had already begun teaching him how to handle government affairs.

The documents in front of him were sent by various counties and counties. Ma Liang read them very quickly. After looking at each document for a few moments, he approved it and then threw it aside.

Ma Bingze looked at his father's explanation, holding his chin, wondering about the reason for his father's arrangement.

The two father and son just fought hard.

finally…

When Ma Bing saw a letter about the taxes and land taxes from the four counties in Jingnan, Ma Bing was surprised and couldn't help but sigh: I didn't expect that the land taxes and ordnance sent to Jiangling from Changsha and Guiyang every year would be so... many!

Hearing his son's exclamation, Ma Liang put away the documents in front of him and explained: Today, the Jiangling City we are in is located between two great plains. It is suitable for agriculture, but it happens that Cao, Sun, and Liu The intersection of the three territories is a battleground for military strategists.

Jiangling is a military fortress. It is obviously not suitable to develop farmland and commerce here. Therefore, Kong Ming and I discussed in the past and shifted the center of agriculture and commerce to Jingnan. Both Changsha and Guiyang are fertile lands that produce a lot of money and grain. , and is rich in weapons!

Especially Changsha, with its strategic location, it is extremely convenient to transport military supplies. Once it falls into the hands of others, it will be tantamount to 'strangling Jiangling's throat' and turning Jiangling into a sourceless water.

Ma Bing recalled the specific location of Changsha, and followed his father's words and added: My child feels that Changsha is not only the throat of Jiangling, but also the throat of Wu and Shu. It controls Manyue, restrains the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and can carry thousands of miles. !”

Yes, Changsha County connects Jiangdong, Jiaozhou, Jingzhou, and Bashu. It is also an important place for the supply of grain and ordnance. Its importance is evident.

My son is right. This is why Soochow must force us to hand over the three counties of Changsha, but... In the first breath, Ma Liang was pleased with his son's true knowledge and insights at a young age. In the next breath, Ma Liang's cheeks It sank.

He was thinking of the current situation.

yes…

Nowadays, one is the Hefei battlefield between Sun Quan and Zhang Liao, and the other is Guan Gong attending the meeting alone and arriving at the Hongmen Banquet set by Lu Su. The current situation is changing rapidly!

It is very likely that Changsha, Guiyang, and Jiangxia counties will change the Dawang Banner overnight.

Among them, more than half of Jiangxia is in the hands of Soochow, so if you give it up, you will give it up;

But Changsha and Guiyang... are important supplies for the military fortress of Jiangling and are the main roads connecting the four directions. Once they are given away, then... Jingzhou will be passive.

Thinking of this, Ma Liang will inevitably feel sad.

Ma Bing saw his father's thoughts, and frowned and sighed: Alas...it's all that abominable Hong Qigong, the abominable Hefei Bet! Otherwise...

Speaking of the latter part, his voice stopped suddenly because he saw a letter wrapped in a red and white purse in the corner.

Huh? Why is there still a document hidden here?

While talking, Ma Bing took out the red and white purse. As soon as the red and white purse came out, Ma Liang's expression suddenly changed.

Hurry...bring it!

The reason why he became so nervous was because there was a rule in the Han army. If it was an urgent matter, it must be one post horse every thirty miles, and all the soldiers will be red.

In the Han army and the Guan army, the courier with red scarf and red sleeves and the red and white purse are indispensable for the urgent dispatch of six hundred miles, and this red and white purse in front of me?

Sure enough, Ma Liang was startled and exclaimed: I almost missed something big!

As he spoke, he hurriedly picked up the letter and unfolded it quickly.

You know, in normal times, these six hundred miles urgent military notes are delivered directly to Guan Mansion and to Guan Gong.

But now that Guan Gong is away, the messenger is sent to Guan Mansion. No one can pick him up, so he can only send it to military advisor Ma Liang.

The matters that Ma Liang dealt with were mainly government affairs, and there were few urgent matters. The door officials did not know the so-called red and white purses of military affairs, and they just arranged them step by step, on a first-come, first-served basis.

In the end, this letter was just presented without any special reminder.

If you think about it carefully, this is a huge oversight on Ma Liang's part.

Of course, it doesn't matter.

Because, as the letter was opened, Ma Liang's movements stopped, his expression was both surprised and confused, and sweat dripped from his forehead.

Ma Liang's ghostly expression was noticed by Ma Bing, and he quickly asked: Dad? What's wrong with you?

With a gudong sound, Ma Liang swallowed a mouthful of saliva and hurriedly waved: You, come here...

Ma Bing hurried over to take a look.

Ma Liang pointed to the words on the dispatch and exclaimed in a trembling voice: We won. Just last night, Zhang Liao's few hundred soldiers... killed Sun Quan's 100,000 troops! Now, even Na Dong The life and death of Sun Quan, the leader of the Wu Kingdom, are uncertain!

Ma Bing was young and reacted quickly. He suddenly became excited, Jiangdong lost? Doesn't that mean... the 'Hefei Bet' that 'Hong Qigong' made all over the city... we... we ended up being the ones who benefited the most!

Ma Bingyue became more and more excited as he spoke, There is no need to give way to the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Jiangxia. Uncle Liu Huang's borrowing money from Jingzhou will also...never be mentioned again? Wait...Looking at it this way, the 'Hong Qigong' may not have committed a heinous crime. He Maybe... he is far-sighted, maybe... he is a friend rather than an enemy!

In Ma Bing's great excitement, Ma Liang pondered for a long time before nodding heavily.

His eyes slowly focused on his son's face.

They are friends, not enemies, as my son said, but I must not forget it...

Besides that 'Hong Qigong', there is another person in Jiangling City who has figured out this situation!

Under his father's sudden accent, Ma Bing's always confident and handsome face suddenly became pale and helpless.

In an instant, all the weird behaviors related to... his immediate boss and the Fourth Young Master Guan Lin seemed to suddenly have a fulcrum!

Huh...huh...

Ma Bing breathed rapidly. He looked at the urgent letter, then looked up at his father. He opened his mouth, but... it seemed as if his throat was choked, and he was unable to speak.

At this moment, he seemed to understand something, and he seemed to have greater doubts in his heart!

So much so...for a moment, Ma Bingsheng had such an idea?

Mr. Guan Lin...how on earth did he expect this?

Isn't this too outrageous?

——Zhang Liao defeated one hundred thousand with one hundred horses!

Master Guan Lin really dares to speak, and Zhang Liao also really dares to fight.

There is another, haha, there is Sun Quan, he really dares to lose!
