Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Under the city of Chang'an, when Ma Teng's army was most elated about conquering Chang'an, Wei Yan led two battalions of Xiahou Yuan and Zhang Xiu's cavalry to strike a thunderous blow at the main camp of Ma Teng's army, defeating Ma Teng's army in one fell swoop.  They captured Ma Teng, Ma Chao, Matthew Pound and others, and took advantage of the situation to attack the south gate of Chang'an City.

    In this battle, Ma Teng's army of nearly 30,000 infantry and cavalry was defeated, more than 10,000 prisoners were annihilated, more than 100,000 civilians were rescued, and the crisis in Chang'an was relieved. However, countless stragglers in Ma Teng's army were scattered throughout the Guanzhong Plain, leaving behind  suffered many sequelae.  At this time, Chang'an South Gate guard and Chief Shi Yang Fu saw that the situation was unsolvable and had to lead his subordinates Jiang Xu, Jiang Ji, Zhao Ang and others to surrender.

    Subsequently, Wei Yan entered Chang'an with his army and hundreds of thousands of people.

    ¡­¡­

    In Zhong Yao¡¯s governor¡¯s mansion, dozens of people faced each other, and the momentum was tense.

    "Yang Yishan! Fortunately, we entrusted you with the responsibility of life and death, but you surrendered Li Thief. Now you still have the nerve to make money for us. It's not shameful!" Wei Duan, the governor of Liangzhou and Yang Fu's benefactor, pointed at  Yang Fu, who came to persuade him to surrender, cursed.

    Yang Fu blushed and finished the album to the end.

    "Your Majesty! You and I have known each other for a long time, so how can I be a person who has an affair with an outsider? The situation is like this, and I have to ignore it. In today's world, wars are causing disasters, and the people are in ruins. The world looks forward to the Ming Lord like sweet rain.  So it¡¯s not like that for us. None of the gentlemen here are the ones who can stabilize the country, so what can you do if you don¡¯t ask for an enlightened leader for us?"

    "Master Ming! Master Ming! That Li Zhe is just a Taoist thief. How is he any different from Zhang Jiao back then? How can such a thief be defeated?"

    "Hey!" Zhang Ji stopped Wei Duan, "It's too much to be a governor. Then how can Li Xiande be said to be a Taoist thief if he can write such a masterpiece as The Theory of the Sun, Moon and Stars? It's just that what he learned is the same as the Tao of saints like us.  It¡¯s just a disagreement!¡±

    Wei Duan heard this and looked at Zhang Ji with eyebrows crossed.

    Yang Fu came forward and said: "What De Rong said is still fair! What you just said is wrong! The heavenly master is a god who came to the world to educate the world! Although it is not consistent with what the master said, it is also a first-class one. Why should it be contradicted by words?  Add to that. Besides, if the Heavenly Master Army had not rescued us today, Chang'an would have been captured by Ma Teng's army long ago, and all life would be in ruins. How could we be here to discuss it?"

    When everyone in the hall heard Yang Fu's words, their faces were dissatisfied, but in their hearts they had to acquiesce.

    Wei Duan looked at Yang Fu's sharp teeth and mouth, and made everyone around him speechless. He was so angry that he said, "You! You! You! This makes me so angry! How shameless. Yang Yishan! Since you surrendered Li Zhe,  You are incompatible with me in life and death. Today, I, Wei Duan, will sever all ties with you from now on and never see you again in eternity!"

    "Your Majesty, don't be anxious!" Unexpectedly, Wei Duan spoke so sternly, but Yang Fu didn't take it seriously. Still looking gloomy, he said unhurriedly: "There are two more people in Li Zhe's army. Let's wait until you see them.  It's not too late!" After saying that, Yang Fu stepped aside and said hello to the back. Not long after, the two people rushed over sweating profusely and entered the hall. Everyone in the hall was shocked when they saw them!

    It is Wei Duan¡¯s two sons, Wei and Wei Kang brothers!  What is surprising is that the two of them are not dressed as scholars, but as strangers in Li Zhe's army. Both of them have actually become members of Li Zhe's army!

    Wei Duan immediately stared over in confusion, pointed at the two of them, and coughed. Before anyone could react, his whole body twitched and he fell to the ground!

    "Father!" "Envoy!"

    A group of people rushed to treat him.

    That night, everyone in the Governor's Mansion didn't know what to make of it. Anyway, in the early morning of the next day, Wei Duan suddenly announced that he had retired from illness and would not care about world affairs. The two brothers Wei Shi and Wei Kang took his job, and Zhong Yao, Zhang Ji, Du Ji and others announced their support.  Li Zhe took control of Chang'an.

    " Two days later, Han Sui's 50,000-strong coalition of Xiliang nobles and hundreds of thousands of strong men arrived outside the north gate of Chang'an, and opened a camp for more than ten miles.

    ¡­¡­

    At this time, Han Sui had already received the news that Ma Teng's army was wiped out. After Ma Teng's army was defeated that day, the defeated army had nowhere to go. It spread almost all over the Guanzhong Plain. Many of them fled to the north and were taken in by Han Sui. Therefore, Han Sui knew that Ma Teng's army was there.  The unfortunate thing happened under Chang'an City.

    However, even so, he only knew the news about the armored cavalry, the size of the entire elite cavalry army, and that it came from Li Zhejun who entered Guanzhong. He did not have a very accurate judgment on how it happened.  However, since it was Ma Teng's army that was defeated by sneak attack, it means that it does not have overwhelming strength.  A heavily armored cavalryman is extremely cumbersome and may not be impossible to deal with. Han Sui has always been known as a resourceful man, but he is not the brave man like Ma Teng.

    Now that Chang'an is so close, how can we retreat?

    ?This is Chang'an that the people of Xiliang have longed for, and the people of Xiliang have dreamed about it in legend.With nearly a century of hegemony at his fingertips, this is Han Sui's best opportunity to dominate Guanzhong in the future and even use it to conquer the world. Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire in front of him, he will not give up.

    Li Zhe!  You actually stretched your hand so far, so come on!  Xiliang man, I won¡¯t be afraid of you!

    ?? Han Sui¡¯s army was dazzled by Chang¡¯an¡¯s wealth and beauty, and the morale of the army was at its peak. Even if Li Zhe came in person, what would they be afraid of?

    Under Han Sui's rule, the collision between the Qiang-Han coalition forces that had been ravaging Xiliang for decades and the main force of Li Zhe's upcoming Western Expeditionary Army was inevitable.

    The curtain slowly opens

    ¡­¡­

    On November 20th, the day after Han Sui arrived in Chang'an, the coalition forces tried to attack the city. They still used the old-fashioned method of driving people to fill the city, and still used the old-fashioned method of climbing ladders. Tens of thousands of people attacked the city!  Although the tactics are backward, with the dilapidated city defense of Chang'an City, it is not easy to defend it.  Fortunately, the addition of Wei Yan's 6,000 elite soldiers greatly increased the defensive strength of Chang'an City, and the battle was still possible.  At the most dangerous time during this period, Zhang Xiu's cuirassiers came out of the city and charged and killed them. Although hundreds of knights were lost, it directly caused Han Sui's army to lose the best opportunity to break the city and wasted Han Sui's day.  effort.  This made Han Sui furious!

    On November 19, Cao Hong's infantry battalion separated from Li Zhe's army, crossed the Jing River, entered Beidi County, and detoured behind Han Sui's army.

    On November 22nd, Zhang Xiu's cuirassiers left the city from the south gate of Chang'an and headed west into Xianyang, blocking the path to the west of the Guanzhong Plain.

    Countless Qilin Guard teams and reconnaissance cavalry spread out in all directions, spreading out a dense detection network to monitor the entire Guanzhong Plain. During this period, it goes without saying that there were countless detectives, interceptions and raids.

    On November 25th, Li Zhe's army arrived, and King Ming came to Guanzhong.

    Han Sui sat at the foot of Chang'an City, constantly filling the gaps in Chang'an City with people. Seeing that the resistance of Chang'an City was declining day by day, and getting closer to complete victory every day, he felt more and more joyful in his heart.

    On the other hand, he continued to receive news from the surrounding scouts every day and monitored the chaos in Guanzhong. However, his scouts were decreasing every day, and he had to continue to increase the search every day.  intensity.  Invisibly, he suddenly felt a cold air rushing up his spine, an indescribable feeling of danger.

    ¡­¡­

    "Report!" A capable scout knelt in front of Han Sui. His body was covered in blood. He didn't know how many desperate fights he had to go through before he managed to escape. In the tent, there were countless kings and handsome men with serious faces.  Watching, listening attentively to the news from the scout.

    "My lords! East! A large army is coming from the east. It is extremely elite! I went to detect it. Unexpectedly, I had just descended the slope and before I could get closer, I encountered enemy scouts and intercepted them. Those scouts were all soldiers.  The armor is excellent, and he holds a crossbow that can fire continuously, which is extremely powerful. As soon as Fang met me, he killed half of my brothers. Seeing that the situation was not right, my subordinates immediately ordered to escape. Unexpectedly, the scouts were like tarsus.  The bone maggots chased and killed me for dozens of miles, and in the end I was the only one left. If I hadn't met my brothers to save me, I wouldn't have been able to see the king!" The scout cried and jumped on him.  Han Sui cried bitterly at his feet.

    Han Sui looked grim and asked word by word: "Does that mean you haven't actually seen clearly the types and size of the enemy's troops?"

    The detective's face turned red and he replied: "That's true. Just looking at the long term, it is estimated that there are no less than 20,000 to 30,000 people. The soldiers and armor are all very good. As for the rest, I don't know. King Han! King Han! I  But I tried my best! My brothers are all dead!"

    With a sullen expression, Han Sui suddenly kicked out and kicked the only living reconnaissance knight away. The sternum in his chest was shattered and he looked like he was no longer alive.

    "King Han! Didn't I tell you to call me King? Why can't you remember? Huh?" Han Sui looked around, his eyes as wide as bells.

    Inside the tent, a group of people were as silent as cicadas.

    After holding his neck and panting for a long time, Han Sui finally regained his breath and continued to speak:

    "Cheng Gongying! You have been in charge of military intelligence and scouting. Please tell everyone how the situation has been recently."

    "Yes!" A person stood up and said: "Recently, the scouts who have been scattered around our army have repeatedly failed to report back. On average, only half of the scouts who went out each time came back. So far, we have lost hundreds of the most elite ones.  I am a veteran. I had to increase the intensity of the scouts and dispersed many of the elites directly under the central government! But still very few came back."

    "Hmm! Which direction has the most scouts disappearing?"

    Cheng Gongying paused and said: "There are many in every direction., but to say that the most are actually in the direction of Xianyang in the west and Bashui in the east.  In addition, after our army, there was no news from the north bank of Jingshui River for several days.  "

    What?  At this moment, the atmosphere in the tent immediately became noisy. Everyone was old and tired of fighting. What does this situation mean?  No one is so clear anymore.

    Just like the era when the Han army suppressed the Qing Dynasty, once there was a large reduction in the number of scouts in a certain direction, it often meant that a large army was coming to suppress it. In other words, everyone was currently under complete siege.  middle!

    But, where could such an army come from in this empty Guanzhong Plain?  With such a large encirclement and such a complete plan, if we want to completely annihilate this coalition army with approximately 50,000 soldiers, we must be surrounded by at least hundreds of thousands of soldiers!  Even in the heyday of the Han Dynasty, this was probably impossible!  (To be continued.
