Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

At that time, Ma Di quickly suppressed the bandit uprising in Xichong Kingdom with the power of thunder. The area of ​​Sanba was immediately frightened by Ma Su's reputation, and all the thieves who had not yet taken action hid.

But outside Sanba, a little further away from Ma Su, many bandits began to appear in Yizhou. They often come in groups to harass passers-by and merchants, and even besiege remote county towns.

Although it seems to have little impact, it indicates that Shu is starting to stir up trouble.

In the Chengdu court, a group of great scholars led by Du Wei began to launch a counterattack against Jingzhou officials from various angles of Confucianism and classics. Du Wei went to the court in person and reported to His Majesty that the court was facing difficulties and the local turmoil was turbulent, and requested that officials' salaries be cut to support the battlefield.

This local faction suddenly appeared and launched a counterattack against the Jingzhou faction, which made the officials of the Jingzhou faction who were wise enough to protect themselves unhappy. We didn't want to go against you, but you took the initiative to trouble me?

Who is this!

The Jingzhou faction immediately launched a self-defense counterattack, and for a while the local faction and the Jingzhou faction almost quarreled again.

In the end, Zhuge Liang stood up and stopped the farce in the court to prevent the conflict from expanding.

However, Zhuge Liang had already noticed at this moment that the changes caused by Ma Di were not limited to a small area. Ma Su's jealous character and tough tactics made the local faction react almost like a panic.

If this continues, sooner or later the conflict between the Jingzhou faction and the local faction will explode again.

"Prime Minister, just tell me, Ma Di will do nothing good if he goes out alone to handle matters." Jiang Wan smiled bitterly and spread his hands helplessly to Zhuge Liang.

"Look, it was originally to deal with the issue of private soldiers, but I don't know what You Chang thought. He suddenly went to Sanba to equalize the land. The land of Sanba is the boundary of the local faction, and wherever he went, he clearly targeted the Zhou family. , isn’t this nonsense?”

"If this continues, I'm afraid all the local big families will get into trouble."

"So Prime Minister, please call back You Chang quickly and don't cause trouble outside."

In this regard, Zhuge Liang just fell into deep thought and began to weigh the pros and cons. Although the local faction does need to be suppressed, Ma Su's behavior did go too far.

But while Zhuge Liang was thinking, a scribe came in with a letter and reported to Zhuge Liang.

"Prime Minister, Ma Dongcao sent a message back, saying that there were bandits in Sanba, and Dongcao defeated them in one day. Now Ma Dongcao is leading his personal guards to suppress the rebellion in the north of central Sichuan. It will take less than a month for central Sichuan to I feel stable again.”

When Zhuge Liang heard this, he was slightly startled. Then he motioned to the scribe to bring over the letter. After just scanning it a few times, his brows relaxed.

Although Ma Su was not good at handling affairs in the court, he was really not good at fighting. In just one day, he killed thousands of bandits and led his troops to attack Hanshou.

With Ma Su's rapid march and blitzing speed, and his ability to win every battle, it was not difficult to clear up the turmoil in central and northern Sichuan. At that time, under the shock of the military power, the remaining turmoil will not dare to make such a fuss again.

All in all, if there had been open and secret fighting in the court, Ma Su would have been kicked out within a month. But if you want to pick someone up and flip the table, then Ma Su is not afraid of anyone.

After reading Ma Su's battle report and combining it with the recent situation, Zhuge Liang suddenly had an idea.

Now the conflict between the Jingzhou faction and the local faction has been provoked again, and the two sides are destined to have some friction. Zhuge Liang has nothing to do about this, it can no longer be stopped.

After all, the arrow is on the string now and has to be fired.

However, Ma Su's swift movements made Zhuge Liang feel that it was not difficult to deal with it. Once Ma Su succeeds, many seemingly unsolvable problems in the past will be solved.

Zhuge Liang picked up the feather fan, stood up gently, and looked at the map of Yizhou hanging on the wall. After a long silence, Zhuge Liang finally made a decision.

"Let You Chang go ahead and do it! Do your best to suppress the unrest in the northern part of Shu!"

"By the way, send Wu Ban to take care of him and cooperate with Ma Di to suppress the unrest. As long as Ma Di can quell the chaos in the counties within a month, many things will be solved!"

"Some things are inevitable after all..."

Seeing his prime minister suddenly stand up and adopt an extremely determined attitude, Jiang Wan felt so strange for a moment. You know, the Prime Minister has always been a good old man, a typical example of seeking stability.

What did Ma Su say to the Prime Minister that caused him to change so much?

Is Ma Su really a genius?

…………

…………

…………

Ma Su, who was far away in Sanba, quickly received orders from the court. This time it was an order from the Prime Minister's Office, requiring him to suppress the unrest in various places as quickly as possible.

This was the stance of the Prime Minister's Office. Although it still disagreed with his ban on private soldiers, it supported Ma Su's use of force to suppress the unrest.

After receiving this order, Ma Su felt very excited. This is Zhuge Liang's recognition of his actions. At least he doesn't have to worry about accountability after the war...

Wait a minute? Why do I feel like this is not a good thing for me?

Well, now Ma Su couldn't care so much anymore. He immediately picked up his gun and mounted his horse, ready to start the journey of suppressing the rebellion in Shuzhong again.

It is worth mentioning that at this moment, the Zhou family, who was calculated by Ma Su and suffered huge losses, and Ma Su almost became enemies. After Wu Lang was beheaded, the head of the family, Zhou Yun, almost gritted his teeth and breathed fire as he returned to his compound.

Especially, after having to make way for the thieves, it didn't take long for gossip from their Zhou family to spread in Langzhong.

When the local people in Guizhou were walking through the streets, they all began to discuss why the Zhou family took the initiative to give way to the bandits. Not only that, they also prohibited Han troops from entering their farms and took the initiative to provide cover for the bandits who committed murder and arson.

Things began to take a turn for the worse as word spread, and there were even rumors that the Zhou family had been colluding with thieves for a long time. The rumor spread is so realistic that it has a nose and eyes.

If Zhou Yun hadn't known the inside story and knew that the real situation was completely different from the rumors, he would have really thought that Zhou's family had been exposed.

However, facing Ma Su who was at the height of his power at the moment, Zhou had to swallow his breath after gritting his teeth for a long time. But Zhou Yun had already started planning to give Ma Su a big eye as soon as he left Langzhong.

Didn’t you say that Sanba has been scheduled? When you go to Hanshou, I will immediately instruct my men to rebel. It's best to let the whole Sanba be in chaos before Ma Di comes back.

Let everyone in the world take a look at Ma Di and see what you have suppressed!

Fortunately, even though he was filled with anger, the head of the Zhou family did not lose his mind. He still handed over this job to a few scapegoats and let them rebel in their own name.

Even if Ma Su can come back by then, he won't be able to trace them to the Zhou family at all!
