Chapter 10 won the Central Plains 23rd Han Sui's strategy of sticking to Guanzhong made Yang Qiu, Cheng Yi, Zhang Ming, Ling Ru and other Xiliang civil and military officials very surprised.

After the end of the Central Plains War, Hebei's strength has become stronger and stronger, which Han Sui explained to everyone as early as when he conquered Guanzhong.

With the current strength of Xiliang, he cannot hold Guanzhong alone, and must unite with Yuan Shao to fight against Hebei. However, judging from the current situation, the survival crisis of the Xiliang people is becoming more and more serious, and if they continue to adhere to the strategy of passive defense, Guanzhong is very likely to be lost.

"Instead of sitting and waiting to be killed, it is better to take the initiative to attack, replace defense with offense, and survive in death." Han Sui said resolutely,

"This battle, if you don't fight, you have to fight."

"It is too risky to deceive the Hebei people and lure the northeastern Xinjiang army into Guanzhong to encircle and annihilate them." Zhang Ming immediately objected,

"The purpose of the Northern Xinjiang Army entering Guanzhong is to fight Guanxi and Luoyang, they cannot only have 50,000 troops, and their 50,000 troops cannot all enter Guanzhong. Once we wipe out the Northern Xinjiang Army that has entered Guanzhong, we will inevitably be met with frenzied retaliation from Hebei. ”

"How many troops are there in Hebei? Just look at the Central Plains War. Li Hong deceived all his opponents in the Central Plains War, and at the last moment of the war, he actually transferred 100,000 Hu iron cavalry from the desert to participate in the decisive battle, and in the blink of an eye, Yuan Shao's coalition army was swallowed up. What is the most formidable force in Hebei? It is not the more than 200,000 troops in Hebei, but Li Hong, the desert iron cavalry that bows down to Li Hong. ”

"We have completely annihilated the Hebei Frontier Army, can we really hold Guanzhong? It's hard, it's too hard. Maybe you think that after the Great War in the Central Plains, after suffering heavy losses in Guanzhong, after being pinned down by the armies of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, the Northern Xinjiang Army could not afford to continue to use troops in Guanzhong in the short term due to lack of financial resources, but have you ever thought about the iron cavalry on the desert? ”

"How many roads are there from the desert to Guanzhong? The Hu iron cavalry crossed Helan Mountain, crossed the Lingwu Valley to the Yellow River, and then roared down, and could rush through Liupan Mountain overnight. If Li Hong is determined to sweep away Guanzhong, the Hu iron cavalry on the desert will overcome all difficulties to enter Guanzhong, and they can reach Chang'an at any time. ”

Li Hong used the Hu iron cavalry to fight the Central Plains, maybe he had such scruples, but Guanzhong is now deserted, and Chang'an was burned to ruins by Li Dao. What other scruples does Li Hong have? Li Hong is a leopard, a bloody and cruel leopard. In his eyes, there is no prey that cannot be hunted. For more than a decade, we have been defeated by him in an advantageous situation, and today we are at an absolute disadvantage, and we have no possibility of beating him at all. "Zhang Ming is the son of Zhang Huan, the former general of Duliao, and he is the same as Han Sui.

The reason why the Xiliang Army was able to take Chang'an and occupy Guanzhong this time was that it made great contributions. Zhang Ming is in his fifties, with a gray beard, a thin body, and a pair of bright eyes.

His backlash silenced everyone.

"What is the purpose of our attack on Guanzhong? It is for Xiliang, to protect Xiliang, and to guard the territory. If we want to protect the territory of Xiliang Guard, we need two crucial conditions. One is the military. We need an army, we need an army that is strong enough. The second is financial endowment. The army needs money and food, and the people of Xiliang need money and food for relief. But Xiliang didn't have enough money, so we hit Guanzhong. But when we hit Guanzhong and occupy Chang'an, will we be able to have the land of Sanfu? Zhang Ming waved his hands excitedly and said loudly,

"Brother Wen Yue, you need an army to fight the Northern Frontier Army, since Yuan Shao has given us money and food, you don't expect his army to fight to the death. We have suffered heavy losses, how can we occupy Guanzhong? Whether it is Li Hong or Yuan Shao, they will take the opportunity to attack us and seize Guanzhong. We fled back to Xiliang in embarrassment, with no soldiers, no food, how to protect Xijiang? Zhang Ming's words aroused the echo of Yang Qiu, Cheng Yi, Liang Xing and others.

As Li Hong's opponents, while they hated Li Hong, they also admired Li Hong very much, and at the same time, they lacked the confidence to defeat Li Hong.

Han Sui seemed to have expected that the Xiliang people did not have the courage and determination to attack the Northern Frontier Army, he was very calm, and listened quietly, without making any rebuttals and persuasions to Zhang Ming, Yang Qiu and others.

"So far, Hebei has not promised us any conditions other than threatening us." Ling Ru said helplessly,

"Huangfu Li has issued a final warning that if we continue to refuse the entry of the Hebei Frontier Army into Guanzhong at the end of this month, they will attack. Are we just going to give up the gates? ”

"With the current situation in Hebei, it is impossible to agree to our conditions." Zhang Ming shook his head and smiled bitterly,

"In your place, did you agree to such conditions?"

"One thing we must admit is that when Western Xinjiang was extremely difficult, it was Hebei and Li Hong who reached out to help Western Xinjiang. At that time, Guanzhong was occupied by Yuan Shao, and if Hebei wanted to transport money and grain to the western Xinjiang, it needed to cross the prairie outside the fortress, the bowstring desert and the Tianqiong desert, and the surging Yellow River, which was full of difficulties, and the consumption on the way was even more amazing. But Hebei gritted its teeth and took it, and Hebei persevered. I remember you told me that when you saw Hebei sending people to transport money and grain to the western Xinjiang, many of you shed tears, and Brother Wen Yue also shed tears. ”

"Maybe you think that Hebei helped Western Xinjiang when it wanted to use the army in Western Xinjiang to contain Yuan Shao, or maybe you think that Yuan Shao would also help Western Xinjiang in order to stabilize Guanzhong, but have you thought about it, if Hebei doesn't help you, Yuan Shao won't be afraid that you will send troops to Guanzhong? Yuan Shao gave you grain, would he dare to attack Hedong? No, Yuan Shao will never fight Hedong, he doesn't have that strength, he can only defend the pass and be beaten. Facts have also proved that he was indeed worried that the Northeast Xinjiang Army would attack Guanzhong and deliberately wooed the western Xinjiang. Zhang Ming knocked the desk,

"I have been in Guanzhong, I can see clearly, I am really willing to help Western Xinjiang, and only Hebei and Li Hong are really willing to protect Western Xinjiang."

"Today, you don't accept Hebei's love, and you don't want to give Li Hong this face, whether it is Hebei or Li Hong, you don't resent you. They still respect Xijiang very much, respect Brother Wenyue very much, and send Huangfu Li to Chang'an for specific negotiations three times and twice, why? Is it really because after the Central Plains War, they were unable to attack Guanzhong? No, they want to discuss with Xijiang well, meet Xijiang's requirements as much as possible, and help Xijiang's army to protect the west. ”

"However, as of today, Brother Wen Yue and you have no intention of negotiating, and you have made many unreasonable demands and repeatedly delayed time. I thought that you wanted to use this time to stabilize Guanzhong and wait for the situation to change, so as to strive for the greatest interests of Xijiang from the negotiations, who ......knows" Zhang Ming looked at Han Sui and waved his hand angrily,

"Who knows, you are actually dizzy, you want to turn your face with Hebei, and you have to fight with the Northern Xinjiang Army. Knowing this, I would never have opened the gate of Chang'an City to help you capture Guanzhong. Now I have not only failed to help Xijiang, but have sent Xijiang to the abyss of defeat, and I really regret it. Zhang Ming's words made many officials in Xiliang look ashamed.

In the past few years, if Hebei had not kept its promise and continuously delivered relief money and grain to Western Xinjiang, it would indeed be difficult for Western Xinjiang to continue.

It was precisely because of Hebei's support that Yuan Shao felt a huge threat from the western Xinjiang, and he had no choice but to do his best to win over the western frontier.

But even so, Yuan Shao still killed Ma Teng after the Battle of Jizhou and drove Ma Chao back to Western Xinjiang.

Originally, Han Sui had the opportunity to capture Guanzhong, but because Ma Chao was eager to take revenge, he fell out with Han Sui, and Xiliang fought among themselves, and the result fell short.

If you want to dig deeper, the culprit is Yuan Shao, who really has no sincerity to help Xijiang. But at present, in order to attack Luoyang, Hebei is pressing on the Xiliang people step by step, making the Xiliang people feel threatened.

"What do you mean we should do now?" Yang Qiu saw that Han Sui and Ling Ru were both bowing their heads and silent, so he asked Zhang Ming in a low voice.

"At present, there are two sons of heaven and two courts in the world, which one of the sons of heaven and which court should Xiliang respect?" Zhang Ming asked loudly,

"Can anyone tell me?"

"Xiliang has stepped on two boats in the past few years, and it seems that he is left and right, but he is actually extremely passive. Today's situation has arisen precisely because of the wrong choice made at the beginning. Xiliang to this day, I don't even know who the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty is, and where the Han court is, don't you feel very sad? Brother Wenyue, or you, swore that they would defend the western frontier, but in fact, their hearts were empty. You don't know the future of Western Xinjiang and don't know where you should go, so you are often at a loss in the complicated situation, at a loss, and even make wrong judgments and countermeasures one after another. ”

"If Xiliang wants to get out of the predicament, he must first establish who he should respect as the son of heaven of the Han Dynasty and which court order he should follow." Zhang Ming looked at everyone and said slowly,

"Then, it will be clear what choice Xiliang should make and what his future fate will be."

"Brother Wen Yue's choice is very clear, he wants to unite with Yuan Shao to fight the Northern Frontier Army in Hedong, and he respects the Son of Heaven and the imperial court in Nanyang." Zhang Ming looked at Han Sui, a sneer on the corner of his mouth,

"Brother Wen Yue seems to have forgotten that if Yuan Shao is determined to revive the Han Dynasty, the Son of Heaven and the imperial court of Nanyang should be in Luoyang now. Yuan Shao has the intention to usurp the Han, and the world knows it, and Brother Wen Yue joins forces with such a person, what is the fate of Xiliang in the future, do you still need me to tell you? ”

"Maybe Brother Wen Yue has another choice, that is, to use Guanzhong as the foundation and dominate Western Xinjiang." Zhang Ming's face showed disdain,

Judging from the current situation, it is indeed possible for Brother Wen Yue to dominate Western Xinjiang, but the result is nothing more than becoming a rogue in Western Xinjiang because of poverty, and finally gradually losing the ability to defend Western Xinjiang. The so-called hegemony is nothing but a deception of oneself and others, and it is the vast territory of western Xinjiang and more than 300,000 innocent people who are suffering. "The generals of Xiliang are panicked.

Huangfu Li visited all the Xiliang generals in Chang'an, and his efforts seemed to have played a certain role, and today Zhang Ming's righteous words were stern

The "bombardment" gave the Xiliang generals a clearer understanding of the current situation. Yang Qiu and the others began to cautiously advise Han Sui, asking him to think about it carefully.

"Have you heard of it?" Han Sui asked with a smile. The generals were silent.

"From Li Hong leading the army into Western Xinjiang to the present, we have been enemies for more than ten years. Have we fought together? Are we friends in life and death? Zhang Ming sighed in disappointment.

"Hebei has always said that he wants to fight Luoyang, okay, we will help him fight Luoyang. What about after Luoyang? Where are we going? Do you want to return to Xiliang or continue to sit in Guanzhong? There is no need for an answer to this sentence, Hebei will not let Han Sui and his Xiliang army stay in Guanzhong for a long time.

"We returned to Xiliang and continued to defend the border. The Son of Heaven and the imperial court of Jinyang returned to Kyoto, while Li Hong continued to lead his army southward. Han Sui stared at Zhang Ming and asked word by word,

"Where's Xiliang? Who will solve the problem of Xiliang? Will the Son of Heaven and the imperial court in Luoyang concentrate on solving the problem of Xiliang before pacifying the world? Can we trust the Son of Heaven and the imperial court in Luoyang? Han Sui slowly stood up, walked back and forth in the lobby for a few steps, and then stopped in front of Zhang Ming,

"Your words make sense, you and I both have the same ultimate goal, both for Xiliang, but you think we must honor the Son of Heaven and the court. But if you look at the world today, who else respects the Son of Heaven and the imperial court? Whether it is the Son of Heaven and the court in Nanyang, or the Son of Heaven and the court in Jinyang, who sincerely respects it? ”

"After King Li Hongqin succeeded, how many days did he stay in Jinyang? For Hebei, is it the lord of the court in Jinyang who is in power, or the lord of the general Xingyuan who is in charge? What about Yuan Shao? How many years has Yuan Shao occupied Luoyang, and how could he ever have thought of taking the Son of Heaven and the imperial court to Luoyang? You let the people of Xiliang respect the Son of Heaven and the court, what is the use of respecting such a Son of Heaven and the court? Can you help Xiliang get out of trouble? ”

"If Xiliang wants to survive, he can only rely on himself. After so many years of fighting, the blood and lives of countless brothers have made us clearly see our own way of survival. Han Sui faced the generals and let out a long sigh.

"But the reality is cruel, Hebei is indeed very strong, so strong that we Xiliang people have lost their fighting spirit. Without fighting spirit, how can we survive? ”

"Everyone has illusions about Hebei, hoping that they can help Xiliang and defend Xiliang, and I am the same, and I have the same luxury." Han Sui waved his hand vigorously,

"Okay, let's show sincerity and talk to Hebei once. If Hebei agrees to our conditions, we will join forces with Hebei to fight Luoyang. If Hebei still refuses, then I can only tell you in despair that if we want to live, we have to fight to the death. ”

For Xiliang, the most urgent issue at hand is survival, the survival of more than 300,000 people. I had planned to move the population as soon as Guanzhong stabilized, but now if we join forces with Hebei, Guanzhong will be stable immediately, there is no danger, and we can start population migration immediately. Han Sui fingered Zhang Ming,

"You go and talk to Huangfu Li in person. As long as Hebei agrees to this condition, I can give them in Guanzhong, and I can help them fight in Luoyang. When Luoyang is defeated, I can also immediately return to Xiliang with the army to defend it. ”

"I only have this one condition now, if Hebei doesn't agree, then we can only take up arms, fight bloodily for our own survival, for the survival of Xiliang, and never retreat." Huangfu Li flatly refused.

"Brother Zhongyi, Xiliang only has this one request, one request...... Zhang Ming begged bitterly,

"Brother Wen Yue has stepped back to this point, what else do you want him to do? You can not let the Xiliang army be stationed in Guanzhong, but you must always let the people of Xiliang move to Guanzhong and let them live, right? Is this little request too much? ”

"This request is not only excessive, but it will also cause the Han to quickly and completely lose the western frontier." Huangfu Li waved his hands angrily and shouted,

"The imperial court would rather allocate five years of relief to Xiliang, would rather give Xiliang's 100,000 troops enough food and salary, and would rather let General Pang De lead the army to recover the five counties of Hexi, and would never let the Xiliang people move into Guanzhong."

"Why? Why are you doing this? Zhang Ming trembled with anger and shouted in a hoarse voice,

"You can ask the eldest princess, ask the general, what qualifications do you have? Do you have to turn Guanzhong into a battlefield of flesh and blood? ”

"Why? Why do you say? You're from Xiliang, don't you know? Huangfu Li pointed at Zhang Ming's nose and scolded angrily,

"Have you lived in vain in this life? 300,000 people in Xiliang moved into Guanzhong, and the entire defense line of Xiliang was about to retreat 2,000 miles, and the iron cavalry of the Qiang people would soon kill the line of Dasanguan and Chencang, and approach Chang'an, and all the western Xinjiang would be lost, and Guanzhong would become a battlefield full of flames. ”

"The Xiliang army is still guarding the border in Western Xinjiang, how can the Qiang people kill Guanzhong? You don't want to be alarmist. ”

"Am I alarmist?" Huangfu Li laughed angrily,

"Your father is a famous general of this dynasty, and he is a powerful frontier, why do you descendants know nothing about military affairs?" In his later years, Zhang Huan devoted himself to studying scriptures, and had thousands of disciples.

His eldest son Zhang Zhi and second son Zhang Chang are both famous calligraphers, while Zhang Ming himself is a great Confucian.

Huangfu Li's words made Zhang Ming so angry that his face was red, and he stared at Qing Qing and was speechless with shame.

"At that time, General Meng Tian of the Great Qin State led an army of 300,000 to the north, laid down the Hetao, forced the Yin Mountain, and opened up a large territory. In order to defend the territory, the first emperor issued an order to migrate hundreds of thousands of people from the interior several times to the north to fill the border. ”

"At that time, the great general Wei Qing, the hussar general Huo Qubing and other famous generals of this dynasty repeatedly led expeditions to open up territory for the Han Dynasty. In order to defend these territories, Emperor Xiaowu ordered the migration of more than one million people north to the Tuntian border in Hetao and Hexi for more than 20 years. ”

"The first emperor of the Great Qin State and the Xiaowu Emperor of this dynasty, why did they not hesitate to spend a huge amount of money to migrate the population to the border? Very simply, the army on the border needs food, but the cost of sending grain from the interior to the border is very large, and the consumption of national strength is even more amazing. No other dynasty has been able to bear such a heavy burden for a long time. The garrison needs a steady supply of troops, but the soldiers who have traveled thousands of miles from the interior to the frontier are often unable to adapt to the water and soil, and cannot guarantee the combat effectiveness of the army, and once they encounter a war, the frontier cannot be replenished in the shortest possible time. ”

"After the population moved north, there were more people in the border counties, more cultivated land, and the supply of soldiers and food was guaranteed, and the border areas became safer and safer." Huangfu Li tried his best to hold back his anger and explained a few words.

"More than ten years ago, there were more than wars in northern Xinjiang and western Xinjiang, and it seemed that the national strength was not enough, and the financial endowment of the imperial court was insufficient, but when it was investigated, it was because the land annexation of the border counties was serious, and the rule of officials was extremely high. In addition, the climate in the border county was harsh, and the Hu people repeatedly invaded, and the people could not survive, so they had to leave their homes and escape. The population of the border counties is getting smaller and smaller, the land is becoming more and more barren, and the supply of troops and food has decreased sharply, and the combat effectiveness of the army can be imagined, and it is inevitable that the border counties will fall into the flames of war. As time went on, the cycle became more and more severe, and when the situation was irretrievably bad, the frontier defense collapsed, and the flames of war rose into the sky and quickly spread throughout the border.

"Now the garrison of the western frontier has collapsed. With the efforts of the imperial court and the generals, the northern Xinjiang migrated several times to the north to the border of Tuntian, and after 15 years of rectification, stability was gradually restored. ”

"If the western Xinjiang wants to restore stability, defeating the Qiang is only a small problem, and the bigger problem is the migration of the population, the tuntian garrison, and the promotion and implementation of a series of new policies to ensure the long-term stability of the western Xinjiang."

"Before I arrived in Chang'an, the imperial court had discussed the affairs of Western Xinjiang many times, and some ministers also mentioned the proposal to temporarily abandon Western Xinjiang and move all the people of Western Xinjiang to Guanzhong, but this proposal was immediately rejected. Once the western Xinjiang is given up and the people of the western Xinjiang move into Guanzhong, the situation in the western Xinjiang will completely change, and there will be no room for salvation. In order to protect the Central Plains, the imperial court is bound to do its best in Guanzhong, which will greatly delay the pace of the imperial court to pacify the world. What is even more serious is that in the future, in order to recapture the western frontier, in order to migrate the population to the western frontier, and in order to garrison the frontier in the western frontier, it will need to spend an astonishing amount of financial and material resources. Western Xinjiang may once again drag the Han down alive. ”

"Do you understand now?" Huangfu Li took a few quick breaths and said angrily,

"Xiliang people can't only take care of themselves and ignore the big Han. The Han has overturned, how long can Xiliang exist alone? How many of the 300,000 people in Xiliang can survive the flames of war? The people of Xiliang lived a hard life in Western Xinjiang, but when they arrived in Guanzhong, they were likely to live harder and die faster. ”

"As for saying that the Xiliang army will continue to defend the western frontier after the people of Xiliang migrate, this is simply a joke. How do they defend it? Grass or mud? The Qiang people have their own tribe and their own livestock, but what about them? Their homeland has migrated to Guanzhong, and their grain is one or two thousand miles away from Biansai, even if it is transported to Biansai, how much will be left? How do you let them keep? Who wants to keep it? ”

"Brother Wenyue is old and timid, the vigor of the storm is gone, and now he only has the survival of the Xiliang Army in his mind, only the survival of more than 300,000 Xiliang people, but there is no survival of the Han Dynasty, and there is no survival of tens of millions of people in the Han Dynasty." Huangfu Li smashed his fist on the case,

"You go back and tell Han Wenyue that if he insists on being an enemy of the imperial court, we would rather kill him than let him be buried in the western frontier." Zhang Ming sat weakly on the seat, his mind in chaos.

He was completely confused and didn't know who was right and who was wrong. Why are the people of Xiliang so miserable? Why can't even survival be guaranteed?

Why is it so hard to even live? Why? Han Sui and Xiliang's civil and military officials saw Zhang Ming staggering into the lobby, their faces were sad and indignant, and they were all gloomy.

In recent years, Hebei has been busy conquering the Central Plains and pacifying the world, and they are unable to take care of the western Xinjiang at all, but they resolutely refuse to let the Xiqiang people move into Guanzhong, and at the same time they want to take away Guanzhong and take away the last hope of the Xiliang people.

The people of Xiliang were cornered. If you don't fight, you will retreat to the western frontier, and you will have a dead end. Fighting, defeating and returning to Western Xinjiang is also a dead end.

If you don't fight, you will die, and if you fight, there is only one hope left, that is, you will win, firmly occupy Guanzhong, and hold the power of survival tightly in your own hands.

"What if Li Hong comes with an iron horse? What if he frantically kills into Guanzhong in order to take revenge? "This is the biggest worry of the Xiliang officials, no one has the confidence to defeat Li Hong.

"After killing the Northeast Frontier Army, there are two possibilities." Han Sui said calmly,

"First, in order to take into account the overall situation, Li Hong had no choice but to agree to our conditions and concentrate on capturing Luoyang. Second, in order to drive us back to the western frontier, Li Hong temporarily gave up attacking Luoyang and concentrated all his forces to seize Guanzhong. ”

"If you are Li Hong, what choice will you make that is most beneficial to Hebei?" All the Xiliang officials knew the result.

In order to ensure that the Northern Xinjiang Army would take the Central Plains and firmly occupy the advantage of pacifying the world, Li Hong had no choice but to choose the first method and take Luoyang.

If Li Hong adopts the second method, it is very likely that he will lose all the land south of the Yellow River while occupying Guanzhong, and in the end he can only retreat to the north of the Yellow River, and is forced to accept the unfavorable situation of confrontation across the river.

"Now, do you have any opinions?" Han Sui asked lightly.

"Fight." Yang Qiu suddenly pulled out a knife in his hand, chopped it with a knife, and the case was interrupted.

"Fight." In the second half of May, Yuan Shaoshu told Han Sui, agreeing with Han Sui's attack strategy, and urgently transferred 40,000 troops including Gao Gan and Xin Bi into Guanzhong to participate in the battle, and ordered Duan Xuan to lead the army to contain part of the Northern Xinjiang Army in the west of Guanxi.

Han Sui immediately made an appointment with Huangfu Li, agreed to Hebei's request, and let the army from the northeast of the river cross the river into Guanzhong, preparing to join forces to attack Luoyang.

Huangfu Li took Han Sui's recital and hurriedly returned to Hedong. On June, Hedong, Kabanjin. Xu Rong, the general of the right chariot cavalry and the lieutenant, urgently ordered the right general Yang Feng to immediately command the army to cross the river in batches, and stationed troops at the Qingge ferry in Xiaqicheng in Fengyi County, and set up a boat bridge to prepare to enter the south bank of the Weishui River.

Hua Xiong and He Feng crossed the river with 20,000 forward troops.

"After you arrive in Xiatai, Yang Hua's building ship will send grain, grass and ordnance by water." Yang Feng stood on the embankment, pointed to the warships sailing away on the river and said,

"Don't be in a hurry to erect the bridge, wait for my order."

"What shall I say when I meet Mr. Wenyo?" Hua Xiong asked,

"How many troops do we have entered Guanzhong?"

"One hundred and fifty thousand." Yang Feng waved his hand,

"You tell him that we will have 150,000 troops entering Guanzhong one after another." Hua Xiong and He Feng looked at Yang Feng in surprise.

"My lord, this will scare Han Sui away." He Feng asked suspiciously,

"Why do you say a lot?"

"Will he run?" Yang Feng shook his head,

"I'm going to force him to do it sooner. If we wait for Han Sui to be ready, this battle will be difficult to fight, our losses will be very large, and there will be few Xiliang people left. ”

"Your Excellency wants to surround Mr. Wenyue in Chang'an?" Hua Xiong asked.

"There's this idea." Yang Feng said,

"After Lord Taiwei arrives in Hedong, I will discuss it carefully with him. Since the people of Xiliang didn't want to go back, I had to find a way to drive them back. ”

"It's good to say a little more, maybe it will make Mr. Wenyo change his mind." Hua Xiong sighed,

"If Mr. Wenyue is willing to join forces with us, it will be of great benefit to Guanzhong and Xiliang."

"After you go, persuade him more, and hope that he will change his mind." Yang Feng said,

"Lord Taiwei said in his letter that he would make an appointment to meet Han Sui in person. The battle of Guanzhong, whether to fight or not, after all, the western frontier needs people to defend it, and it cannot be lost to the Qiang people in vain. ”

"When will General Kojiyi arrive?" He Feng asked suddenly.

"Lord Koji took the road outside the Saiwai and rushed to Xiaoguan day and night. He will lead the army of iron cavalry from the direction of Liupan Mountain and kill Chang'an. Yang Feng smiled,

"This time, let's compete with him to see who rushes to Chang'an City first." In June, Xiliang, Wuwei County, southeast of the Tianqiong Desert.

Zhengxi General Pang De received an urgent order from Tai Lieutenant Xu Rong, and Liye led his army back to Anding, and went to Chaona City to join the iron cavalry army of Yan Rou, the general of Zhenbei.

"What, don't you fight Jincheng?" Tie Yue asked curiously. Pound shook his head and handed him Xu Rong's letter,

"Lord Taiwei said, leave Xiliang to Mr. Wenyue, don't let us fight."

"Don't hit Xiliang?" Lei Zi hesitated,

"If we don't fight Xiliang, we will have a decisive battle with the Xiliang army in Guanzhong. Han Sui finally occupied Guanzhong, and it was not easy to force him back. ”

"Lord Taiwei is right." Tie Yue glanced at the letter hurriedly, and handed it to Lei Zi,

"We have crossed the Yellow River, and the replenishment of grain and grass for tens of thousands of troops is a big problem, and it is safer to fight Han Sui in Guanzhong."

"In order to preserve his strength, Mr. Wenyo is very likely to retreat without a fight." Pound laughed,

"This time, it may be easy."

"It's all for you." Lei Zi laughed,

"Who will stay? The iron cavalry of the Qiang people roamed around Wuwei City, threatening Jincheng at all times, and there could be no army here. ”

"Let the first zero king stay behind the stormy sand, and the rest of the people will hurry back to Chaona." On June, Xiliang Anding County, Xiaoguan.

Wei Jun looked at Liu Ming, who came in a hurry, and asked very dissatisfiedly, "Why are you only here now?" What about the big order? ”

"Am I late?" Liu Ming looked at Yan Rou, bowed down and said,

"After I received the letter from Lord Taiwei, I didn't stop at all, and I came with the army for hundreds of miles a day, and I shouldn't have lost time." Yan Rou smiled,

"The beard marched too fast, and came early. What about the big order? ”

"Da Dan Yu has a lot of troops, and the assembly time will be a little longer, and it is estimated that he can rush to Chaona in four days." Liu Ming looked at the beard and smiled,

"Shall we immediately climb over Liupan Mountain?"

"When Da Dan Yu arrives, we'll go." Yan Rou looked up at the sky, smiled and beckoned to Liu Ming,

"Let's go, I'll pick you up." On June, Hanoi District, Ha Duong City. Sima Yi stood high on the city tower, stroking the piano and singing.

Suddenly, a rider came and flew into the city gate. The sound of the piano stopped abruptly. Sima Yi turned his head to look at Wei Yan, who was leaning against the city wall and closing his eyes and pretending to sleep, and smiled slightly,

"It's finally here......" jumps to
