Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song were both from Liangzhou, so they were from the same hometown.

However, the relationship between the two of them was really not good.

The main reason was that Huangfu Song didn't like Dong Zhuo.

This was because there was a difference in their social class.

Huangfu Song was a noble, and his father was a prefect.

His uncle, Huangfu Gui, was even more impressive. He was one of the three major officials of Liangzhou, and he was also one of the three major officials.

Dong Zhuo, on the other hand, was a Wanderer. He relied on his fists to fight his way to his current position.

Just look at Dong Zhuo's career.

Basically, they were all military positions on the frontlines of the war.

Guang Wu Ling was dealing with the Xiongnu people.

The northern commandant of Shu Prefecture had dealings with the Shu Qiang.

Commandant Wuji of the Western Regions had dealings with the Western Regions.

The governor of Bingzhou often led the Bingzhou army and fought with the Xiongnu and Hu people.

The prefect of Hedong also had dealings with the Xiongnu.

To put it bluntly, what they did was the hardest and most tiring work.

Why did Dong Zhuo like Ma Teng?

Because the two of them had similar backgrounds.

They were of the same social class and were both born in Longxi. Naturally, Dong Zhuo felt a sense of closeness with such a fellow villager.

Both armies were stationed in the pagoda tree, confronting Han Sui's army.

Gai Xun wasn't dismissed from his official position because of his defeat. Instead, his official position became higher and higher because of his bravery in battle.

He directly sat on the 2,000-kilogram capital governor.

Gai Xun was in charge of handling the logistics for Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song in Chang 'an.

Gai Xun was in charge of supplies and food.

This scene was quite interesting. The four people from Liangzhou were fighting.

Dong Zhuo was a former general in name, so his official position should be half a rank higher than Huangfu Song's.

However, because Dong Zhuo's West Park Five Squadron was transferred by Liu Hong, that portion of troops was given to General He Jin.

Dong Zhuo's original army of fifty to sixty thousand men was now left with thirty thousand men, including Mateng's troops.

However, these thirty thousand troops could be said to be elite troops, and they were all Dong Zhuo's direct subordinates.

Most of them were border soldiers, and they were quite brave.

But in Huai Li, Dong Zhuo still had to listen to Huangfu Song.

This was also Liu Hong's way of controlling people. Dong Zhuo, who was a high-ranking official, had to listen to Huangfu Song's commands, and the two of them kept each other in check.

Han Sui led a total of 50,000 soldiers, which was quite a number.

However, compared to Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo combined, it was still a little less.

Naturally, Han Sui would not foolishly fight Huangfu Song in the wilderness. He immediately retreated to Wugong County and stationed there.

Starting from the middle of March, Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo marched into Wugong County, wanting to take down Han Sui in one fell swoop.

However, he had been unsuccessful several times and had never been able to take it down.

On the contrary, Han Sui's army was growing in number.

This was because many bandits and mounted gangsters had joined Han Sui, wanting to fight for wealth with him.

Unable to take down Wugong County, Huangfu Song was also anxious. It was a little embarrassing for the rebel army to be stationed in Sanfu.

He wrote to Ma Feng many times, hoping that Ma Feng could send troops to Longxi and force Han Sui back to Liangzhou.

However, Ma Feng could not be bothered with Huangfu Song.

Han Sui's 30,000-strong army had already formed an encirclement and could only defend. They could not attack and thus rejected Huangfu Song.

Can Ma Feng fight? He could fight.

After three months of training, Ma Feng was confident that he would be able to finish off the thirty thousand men Han Sui had left behind in Liangzhou within half a month.

But Ma Feng couldn't solve it.

What Ma Feng wanted was the current stalemate.

If he were to kill Han Sui right now…

With Liu Hong's personality, would he still let him lead 30,000 troops?

Could Liu Hong trust Ma Feng?

Even Dong Zhuo, who had been fighting for decades, could not be trusted, let alone Ma Feng.

Ma Feng might be promoted, but his military power would definitely be taken away.

Therefore, the current stalemate was what Ma Feng wanted, as long as Han Sui did not die.

As long as Huangfu Song did not enter Liangzhou, he would be relatively safe. No one could order him around.

Ma Feng had his own matters to attend to. It was already March, and the spring plowing season had arrived. He had to solve the food problem.

It was fine to borrow grain from Sun Bo once or twice, but if he borrowed too much, Sun Bo wouldn't be able to take it out.

Even if he used two counties to raise 30,000 soldiers, he still couldn't afford it.

Why was Han Sui so eager to enter Sanfu? Why was he stationed in Wugong County?

It was also because of the food.

No matter how poor Sanfu was, it was still richer than Liangzhou. Stationed in Sanfu, they could eat their fill.

If Han Sui's 80,000 troops were all stationed in Liangzhou? They couldn't afford it at all, and there wasn't enough food to eat.

This was also why Han Sui had rushed to Sanfu as soon as the weather turned slightly warmer. He had run out of food and grass. If he did not send troops now, would his soldiers starve to death?

It was the same on Ma Feng's side. Han Sui occupied six counties, but he couldn't support 80,000 people.

Just relying on Longxi alone would not be enough to support 30,000 troops.

However, Ma Feng did not panic at all because he had the system in hand.

Ma Feng's previous mission had earned him a lot of Honor Points, and these Honor Points could be exchanged for items in the mall.

Ma Feng used 15,000 Honor Points to exchange for the sweet potato seeds and the cultivation method.

He did not have the time to fight now. Instead, he led the refugees to reclaim the land and grow food.

Sweet potatoes were easy to grow. They could be planted without any good land.

Although it couldn't be said to be very delicious, it was definitely enough to fill one's stomach. This was quite good.

Drought-resistant, cold-resistant, especially suitable for planting in Liangzhou.

……

Time flew by, and it was July.

Huangfu Song was transferred back to Luoyang because of his defeat.

Zhang Wen took over Huangfu Song's army.

Zhang Wen was a typical scholar, but he had a fierce general under him.

The Tiger of Jiangdong, Sun Jian.
