System Blessing: The Young Master of the Dong Family and Diao Chan's Fate

After Pang De returned, he repeated Dong Yu's original words to Ma Teng.

The young and energetic Ma Dapao couldn't help but curse, but was severely scolded by Ma Teng.

"Mengqi!"

"The situation is stronger than people!"

"When facing life and death, you have to suffer even the slightest loss!"

Ma Teng looked at his good-for-nothing son and shouted angrily.

Although Ma Teng was not as shrewd as Han Sui, he was able to rise from obscurity, so he must have some experience in dealing with the world.

As for the so-called hereditary dukes and marquises, that was purely Ma Chao's way of flattering his own family.

Not to mention that his lineage from Ma Teng might not be the direct lineage, even if it was, by their generation they were almost the same as commoners.

Otherwise, Ma Teng’s biological mother would not be a Qiang woman.

By the time of Ma Teng's generation, the Ma family not only lost the glory of their ancestors, but even became rebels.

Let’s get back to the topic. Ma Teng still values ​​Ma Chao very much.

Although he was born out of wedlock, he was indeed the most promising eldest son.

It is normal for young people to be full of energy, but as the eldest son, Ma Chao is the head of the next generation of the Ma family.

How can we continue to restore the glory of our ancestors to the Ma family when we are so angry?

"But...but I don't want to see my father being so submissive."

Ma Chao lowered his head and said with some reluctance.

"Son!"

"You do not understand."

"What you consider to be a great achievement cannot be achieved by the Ma family alone."

"Although I consider Dong Zhuo a thief, his abilities are beyond the reach of my father."

Ma Teng knew that Ma Chao was arrogant, so he had no choice but to teach him some lessons.

Ma Teng was absolutely right about this.

Dong Zhuo also rose from obscurity. In Liang Province, he won the hearts of many people with his bravery and generous character.

"So...are we really going to vote for the thief Dong?"

Ma Chao clenched his fists and asked somewhat unwillingly.

"Don't call me Dong Thief, call me Mr. Dong from now on, otherwise it will be bad if outsiders hear it."

Ma Teng sighed and quickly reminded him.

Just kidding, they will be Dong Zhuo's vassals in the future.

How could a branch director call the chairman of the head office a thief?

"Pang De, you must immediately lead fifty cavalrymen back to Longxi and bring all my family members with you."

"Remember, be quick."

Ma Teng looked at Pang De and gave orders.

"promise!"

Pang De bowed and left the tent immediately.

"Father, why has the situation turned out like this?"

Ma Chao found it difficult to understand and asked in a depressed tone.

They were clearly in a favorable situation, but suddenly they were in a life-and-death crisis.

"We still underestimated Dong Zhuo."

"My father and Han Sui have fallen into their scheme to sow discord."

Ma Teng shook his head and sighed.

"Since we know we've fallen into a trap, why don't we all ally ourselves with Han Sui again?"

Ma Chao still wanted to struggle.

He really doesn't want to be a slave to others.

"Do you think you still dare to trust Han Sui?"

Ma Teng asked with a helpless smile.

"No...I wouldn't dare."

"I never believed him either."

Ma Chao shook his head, as if he understood something.

Sometimes, alienation tactics are of little use.

Because once you see through it, you will find that this strategy is actually very shallow.

It's nothing more than sowing discord.

But the most unsolvable thing about the alienation plot is that once you fall into it, there is no way out, even if you see through it afterwards.

The fact that the alliance can be divided proves that there is something wrong with it.

People's hearts are hidden, and both sides are suspicious of each other. Even if they want to reunite, it will be difficult to do so as before.

What's more, Ma Teng and Han Sui were not on good terms with each other.

...

The entire Sanfu area has gone from the flames of war half a month ago to the current state of temporary cessation of hostilities.

However, Dong Yu's men have been keeping an eye on the movements of the two camps.

It was discovered that Han Sui and Ma Teng had both sent people towards Xiliang many times.

Within a few days, they brought back a lot of food and livestock. It was obvious that both armies were short of food.

The two camps were quite close to each other, and they did not dare to send a large number of troops back to Xiliang to steal food, so they could only send people multiple times to prevent the other side from taking advantage of the situation.
