When Li Dai, Guo Feng, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou heard that the two armies of Xiliang Ma Teng and Han Sui were coming, they discussed together a strategy to resist the enemy. Counselor Jia Xue said: "When the second army is far away, it is only advisable to go deep into the ditch and fortify it, and hold firm to resist." Within a hundred days, the enemy's soldiers will run out of food and grass, and they will retreat on their own, and then they will lead the troops to pursue, and the second will be captured. General Li Meng and Wang Fang'er stood up and said, "This is not a good plan." I and the other two are willing to borrow tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and immediately cut off the heads of Ma Teng and Han Sui and dedicate them to their subordinates. Jia Xu said, "If you meet the battle immediately, you will be defeated." Li Meng and Wang Fang said in unison, "If the two of us are defeated, I am willing to be beheaded; if I wait for victory, gong should also lose the first rank with me." Jia Xu smiled slightly, and said to Li Dai and Guo Feng: "The two hundred miles of the West of Chang'an (zhōu zhì) mountain, its mountain road is dangerous, so that the two generals Zhang and Fan can garrison here, and resist the wall to wait for the enemy; Li Meng and Wang Fang will lead their troops to meet the enemy." Li Dai and Guo Feng obeyed his words and ordered fifteen thousand horses to be handed over to Li Meng and Wang Fang. The two of them went away happily, and set up camp two hundred and eighty miles away from Chang'an.
As soon as the Western Liang soldiers arrived, the two leaders went to meet them, and the Western Liang army horses blocked the road and opened the position. Ma Teng and Han Sui came out in unison, pointing at Li Meng and Wang Fang and scolding, "Thief of the anti-country!" Who's going to get it? Before the words could be heard, I saw a young general with a face like a crown jade, eyes like shooting stars, a tiger body and an ape arm, a wolf waist, a spear in his hand, and a horse, flying out of the formation.
Horses beyond the battle
It turned out that it would be Ma Chao, the son of Ma Teng, who was seventeen years old and heroic and invincible. Wang Fang deceived him young, the Prancing Horse faced the battle, the battle was not enough, and he was already stabbed by Ma Chao under the horse. Ma Chao returned to the battlefield, Li Meng saw Wang Fang stabbed to death, and a horse came from behind Ma Chao, and Ma Chao did not know. Ma Teng shouted under the front door: "Someone is chasing behind!" The sound was still there, only to see that Ma Chao had already captured Li Meng on his horse. It turned out that Ma Chao knew that Li Meng was chasing after him, but deliberately delayed; when he approached the horse and raised his gun to stab, Ma Chao flashed his body, and Li Meng (shuò) made an empty space, waiting for the two horses to merge, Ma Chao lightly stretched his ape arm, and captured Li Meng. The sergeant had no master, and looked at the wind and fled, Ma Teng and Han Sui took advantage of the situation to pursue and kill, won a great victory, and directly approached the pass to the village, and beheaded Li Meng.
When Li Dai and Guo Feng heard that Li Meng and Wang Fang had been killed by Ma Chao, Fang Believed that Jia Xu had foresight and reused Jia Xu's strategy, only concentrating on guarding the guard, allowing others to fight, and not coming out to meet him. Sure enough, the Western Liang army did not reach two months, and there was a shortage of grain and grass, so they had to discuss returning to the army. It happened that at this time, Ma Yu's servants in Chang'an City denounced the owner of the house, Liu Fan, And Zhongshao, and Ma Teng and Han Sui outside, and wanted to wait for the inside of the city. Li Dai and Guo Feng were furious, and they took the three families of good and poor, beheaded Shi Cao, and then put three first-level heads directly in front of the door to give orders.
Ma Teng and Han Sui saw that the military food had been exhausted, and the internal affairs were leaked again, so they had to pull out the village and retreat. Li Dai and Guo Feng ordered Zhang Ji to lead the army to chase ma Teng, Fan Chou to lead the army to chase after Han Sui, and the Western Liang army was defeated all the way. Ma Chao fought to the death in the rear before he killed Zhang Ji. Fan Chou went to chase after Han Sui, to see if he could catch up, and approaching the chen cang territory, Han Sui strangled his horse and turned to Fan Chou and said, "I am a fellow countryman with Gong, why am I too ruthless today?" Fan Chou also strangled the horse and replied, "The upper order cannot be violated!" Han Sui said, "I have come here for the sake of the country, so why is the gong so forced?" Fan Chou listened, turned the horse's head, collected the troops and returned to the village, and let Han Sui go.
Count chopping thickening
Li Bei was Not aware that Li Bei was Li Dai's nephew in the army, and Li Bei saw that Fan Chou had let Han Sui go and returned to report to his uncle. Li Dai was furious and wanted to raise an army against Fan Chou. Jia Yi said, "At present, people's hearts are not yet at peace, and they are deeply inconvenienced by frequent movements; it is better to set up a banquet, invite Zhang Ji and Fan Chou to celebrate their deeds, and capture Fan Chou and kill them in the middle of the banquet, without any effort." Li Dai was overjoyed, so he set up a banquet to invite Zhang Ji and Fan Chou. 2. Xin Ran will go to the banquet.
Halfway through the drink, Li Dai suddenly changed his face and said, "Why did Fan Chou want to let Han Sui go, is it because he wants to rebel?" Fan Chou was horrified and did not have time to reply; he saw that the swords and axemen on both sides rushed out together, and had already beheaded Fan Chou under the case, frightening Zhang Ji into prostrating himself on the ground.
Li Dai lifted up Zhang Ji and said, "Fan Chou plotted rebellion, so he killed him; Gong is my confidant, so why should I be afraid?" He also allocated Fan Chou's military horse to Zhang Jiguan. Zhang Ji thanked him and went back to Hongnong.
