The sound of hooves was like thunder, and a cavalry of about 2,000 people of the Bohai Navy was slowly driving out of the slope between the mountains and mountains like a long snake, heading straight to Chang'an, Xijing.

Since the Eagle's Nest took control of Hanzhong, it has never stopped the construction of the Dechuan Transportation. In the past ten years, not only the meridian, Baoxian, Chencang and Fuluo roads running through the Qinling Mountains have been repaired, but also the Han water transportation has been fully developed. So far, taking Chang'an from the Hanzhong Plain, there is no longer the hardships of the past.

The Southern Eagle is still dressed in light armor, with black hair and loose shoulders, although he is galloping, his body is as tall as a mountain, showing the strength of the good horse under his seat and his excellent riding skills. He looked at the vast Guanzhong Plain in front of him, his eyes were as calm as water, and he couldn't see a trace of fluctuation.

This expedition to the west has been less than half a month, but he has been planning for several years in advance. At that time, although Dong Zhuo was leveled in one fell swoop, the Bohai Navy at that time was not only unable to defend the enclave of Chang'an, but it was also impossible to escort Liu Xie, the son of heaven, all the way back to the Bohai Sea. For the sake of the overall situation, I can only hope for Lu Bu, hoping that he can stick to Chang'an and maintain the prestige of the Son of Heaven.

However, the direction of the long river of history is really beyond the covetability of a mortal in Nanying. Although Lü Bu and Wang Yun were not defeated as in history, they had to lose Chang'an, so that the Son of Heaven still fell into the hands of thieves. As a result, the prestige of the Han family is still declining, and the country is still in danger.

For this reason, Nanying did not hesitate to endure for two years and secretly accumulate strength. Today, whether it is the Bohai Sea or the Eagle's Nest, it is no longer what it used to be, it can be said that the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, and the grain and grass are sufficient. Nanying didn't want to wait any longer, he just needed a moment.

However, in order to open up the east and west of the Han Dynasty and achieve the grand goal of spanning half of the country, stabilizing the situation in Hebei is an extremely important condition. Among the four heroes of Hebei at this stage, Nanying is the strongest, Yuan Shao is second, Gongsun Zan is third, and Liu Yu is the weakest. And although Nanying is strong, he is unable to deal with the three of them joining forces. The only way is to make full use of the irreconcilable contradictions between the three of them, implement division, and achieve the goal of attacking Yuan Shao, containing Gongsun Zhan, and winning over Liu Yu. In the implementation of this goal, Guo Jia and Chun Yuqiong, the two chess pieces that fell early, made great contributions, and instructed Gongsun Zan to build Yi Jing was a stroke of genius, which not only relieved Liu Yu's catastrophe, but also dragged Yuan Shao's army to death under Yi Jing, so that the two armies fell into a protracted fierce battle, and they were powerless to take care of it.

If the situation in Hebei is safe, the generations of Tao Qian in Xuzhou, Yuan Shu in Huainan, and Liu Biao in Jingzhou are not worried, while Cao Cao in Yanzhou and Liu Bei in Yuzhou are even more grateful to the Bohai Navy and cannot take the initiative to take hostile actions.

The most threatening forces are actually Li Dao and Guo Yan, who occupy Sanfu, Ma Teng and Han Sui, who have been entrenched in Liangzhou for a long time, and Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew, who are guarding the gateway to Jingzhou.

In the first battle of the Western Expedition, the Bohai Navy caught Zhang Ji by surprise, and united with Lu Bu to attack on both sides, and finally subdued Zhang Ji. However, Southern Eagle has no sense of ease. Because among the three rings, Zhang Ji is the weakest, although Li Dao and Guo Yan are not harmonious, their respective strengths have surpassed Zhang Ji, not to mention the Xiliang Army, which has been fighting hard for several years...... Through the intelligence of all parties, Nanying can conclude that the Xiliang Army has completely recovered the original qi lost due to the two defeats of the expedition to Luoyang and the support of Dong Zhuo's rebellion.

According to intelligence, today's Xiliang army can be described as strong and strong, at least between 80,000 and 100,000 soldiers and horses, Han Sui and Ma Teng are both heroes for a while, and their subordinates Pang De, Yan Xing, Cheng Gongying, Liang Xing, Cheng Yin, Hou Xuan, Li Kan, Zhang Heng, Cheng Yi, Ma Wan and others are also called good generals, and Ma Chao, the young master of the Ma family, although he is eighteen years old, he has made a great name in Liangzhou, and his reputation has caught up with Ma Yunluo in the past.

Liangzhou Group has such a huge strength, but it has been entrenched in a corner and has not endured, Nanying can foresee that once there is a change in Chang'an, the first to launch must be Han and Ma.

To this end, Nanying did not hesitate to go far into the mountains, once again returned to the eagle's nest after a long absence, and deployed the specific strategy of retaking Chang'an, guarding against Xiliang and sticking to Hanzhong.

Of course, his return to the Eagle's Nest this time is also very rewarding. First of all, the reincarnation of the Spirit Emperor made him feel sincerely gratified. Since the crossing, except for Gao Shun and others, he has only developed deep feelings for three people, that is, Ma Lun, Lu Zhi and Emperor Ling. Seeing that the Spirit Emperor was able to completely let go and pursue the true meaning of life in tranquility, he could be regarded as fulfilling a wish; Secondly, it is to meet Kong Rong again in the eagle's nest. Because he learned the truth from Emperor Ling, Kong Rong was ashamed of Nanying, and the two finally released their previous suspicions; At last.......

Nanying couldn't help but reach out and touch his arms, and a smug smile appeared on his lips. Those mysterious plants taken from the treasure cave of Shennong Mountain, after the research of Dan Chenzi and Zhang Ji day and night, confirmed that they are indeed miracle medicines that can greatly improve the physical fitness of the human body. The two of them refined it with the method of alchemy and medicine, which lasted for a year, and finally refined a batch of pills, which can prolong life if taken to prolong life. Although the number is small, it is enough to distribute it to Emperor Ling, Ma Lun, Lu Zhi, and some of his most confidant generals, so that they can enjoy their old age. If you can go to Shennong Mountain to get some medicinal herbs, then ......

Thinking of this, Nanying's heart was on fire, and he almost forgot the danger of attacking Chang'an this time. This time, he stood out from the Eagle's Nest and took Chang'an directly, and most of the generals of the Western Expedition had been enriched to the front line of Hanzhong and Wancheng to defend against Liu Yan and Liu Biao, and even sent an elite cavalry to the area of Qixian on the border between Sanfu and Liangzhou, in preparation for a sudden attack by the Liangzhou army. At present, only the three generals Huang Zhong, Hua Xiong, and Ma Yunluo are left by his side, as well as Xun You and Sima Zhi, and there are only 2,000 of the most elite Black Eagle Guards left with him. Although he had planned well in advance, he was still alone, and if he was not careful, he could be in danger.

Nan Ying couldn't help but feel a little worried, he couldn't help but look to the side, but he happened to see that heroic figure, and his heart was even more melancholy...... Such a peerless beauty, but she has already abandoned her family business for herself, and she has not hesitated to turn against her relatives several times, wanting to repay this kindness and affection, only life and death promise each other, never give up!

Under the gaze, the shadow turned her face to the side and showed a flower-like smile to the southern eagle.

"The whole army accelerates!" Nan Ying's heart suddenly calmed down, and the ethereal feeling that had not been seen for many days returned again, and he showed a confident smile from his lips: "Tonight, our army will garrison in Chang'an City!" ”

At the same time, three hundred miles away under the city of Chang'an.

The eight gates of the entire city were closed, the battle clouds outside the city were dense, and several large armies were clearly set up in formation, and the battle was about to break out.

The two armies facing each other in the north and south are mostly cavalry, one of which has set up the banner of the character "Guo", and the other army has the banner of the character "Li". Between the two armies, there is still a team of more than 10,000 soldiers and horses lined up against the Chang'an city wall, and the banner of "Huangfu" is waving in the wind. Needless to say, this is Huangfu Song, who has always maintained neutrality between Li Guo and the two.

Guo Yan was wrapped in heavy armor, only revealing a pair of sharp eyes, glaring fiercely at Li Dao opposite, and his eyes were about to erupt into flames. Although there are many contradictions between him and Li Dao, and they have met several times in battle, they have always been upright and have never used ghost tricks. However, just a dozen days ago, Li Dao secretly bought his maidservant and poisoned his food, almost killing him. This deep hatred is difficult to wash away even if the water of the three rivers is poured out, and only you can break it if you live or die.

Behind Guo Yan, Xu Rong, Li Meng, and Wang Fang were also draped, with murderous faces. On the same day, Dong Min and Xu Rong led 3,000 troops out of the city to besiege and kill the Bohai Navy, but they fell into Nanying's strategy of driving the tiger and devouring the wolf, and fought with Yan Xing and Cheng Gongying's more than 10,000 Xiliang troops and suffered a miserable defeat. Later, Dong Min heard that Dong Zhuo was dead, so he fled and disappeared, and Xu Rong first threw himself at Zhang Ji, and soon led his troops back to Chang'an again, and put them under Guo Yan's account, so that the strength of Guo Yan's army rose again.

In front of the army opposite, Li Dao also looked at Guo Yan with a grim face, and there was no concession in his eyes. He regarded himself as the number one general of Dong Zhuojun, and always regarded Guo Yan as his deputy, but today, the situation between the two has reversed, Guo Yan is not only faintly above him, but also openly suppresses and provokes above the court, making his reputation in the army and the court declining, and he has reached the point where he can no longer bear it.

Behind him, there were also generals Fan Chou, Duan Xuan, and Hu Che'er following, and their momentum was not weaker than Guo Yan.

The sound of hooves sounded, and Huangfu Song rode alone between Li and Guo's two armies. Today, he is already gray-haired, and his face is full of old state, but his eyes are blazing, his expression is majestic, and he still shows the demeanor of a famous general of the day.

He obviously still wanted to make a final effort, and shouted loudly: "Two generals, listen to the words of this general!" The two of you are both important ministers of the country, and you are also responsible for protecting the imperial capital, how can you fall into each other because of a moment of righteousness, and make your relatives feel pain and enemies......"

"The old general doesn't need to say much!" Guo Yan didn't wait for Huangfu Song's voice to fall, and he had already shouted: "Li Thief has repeatedly harmed me, and he has the heart of bullying and rebellion, he can be said to be the biggest national thief after Dong Zhuo!" Between me and Li Thief, what do you say? ”

"How daring! He actually insulted Dong Gong and General Li! "In Li Wei's army, many generals changed color together. Although Dong Zhuo is dead, among the old generals who followed him back then, there are still many people who are loyal to him, although he knows that Dong Zhuo's notoriety is all over the world, and he is infamous when he says it, but it is the first time he has heard of such an outspoken and blatant insult to the old master as Guo Yan.

"Dong Gong? Phew! Guo Yan took a sip and said sharply: "Brothers of the Xiliang Army, think about it!" If it weren't for Dong Zhuo's ambition to usurp the throne, with my ability to wait and choose a good master, I would have already been crowned a marquis and a general, why would I have repeatedly borne the name of a rebel? Now the soldiers have died in vain, the ancestors have been disgraced, and it is difficult to return to the family...... Aren't these thanks to Dong Zhuo? ”

As soon as he said this, the generals of the Xiliang Army who were scolding on the other side were all stunned, and they were speechless. And many ordinary soldiers couldn't help but nod.

"Guo Yan, you have already paid homage to the general, but it is still insufficient?" Li Dao unexpectedly calmed down, and he shouted: "Do you keep saying that you choose a good master, are you disrespectful to today?" ”

"Li Dao, you don't want to spray people with blood! If it weren't for Ben Jiang's strength, he would have been under house arrest by you today! Guo Yan also did not give in, he smiled dumbly and said: "Now you are the official and the general of the chariot and cavalry, and I am the general of the queen, but everyone in the world knows that you and I are really self-appointed after holding the Son of Heaven hostage!" Don't forget, Yuan Shaoyuan is in Hebei and is also known as the general of the cavalry...... It's so vain, don't do it! ”

"Soldiers of the Xiliang Army!" He raised his arms again and shouted: "We, Xiliang boys, pay attention to relying on their enthusiasm, fighting the sword in their hands, and making a name for themselves in a dignified manner!" Now, Li Thief intends to follow Dong Zhuo's example and continue to push us to the realm of no return, what should we do? ”

Hearing such incendiary remarks, not only Guo Yanjun's subordinates clamored together, but even many of Li Weijun's subordinates shouted in agreement.

Some people even shouted wildly: "Lao Tzu should not be a rebel, but return to his hometown with his head held high!" ”

"When did you become a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty?" Li Wei finally felt that something was wrong, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he was full of vigilance: "Who taught you these words?" With your martial arts, you can't say such things! ”

"Edict against thieves!" Guo Yan suddenly took out a roll of yellow silk from his bosom and unfolded it, and the seal of the Son of Heaven on it made the officers and soldiers of the two armies see it very clearly: "Obey the will of the Son of Heaven, obey the order of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and crusade against the rebel general Li Dao...... All those who are in front of the rebels will not be blamed for the past, and they will be rewarded for their meritorious deeds if they ask for thieves and meritorious soldiers! ”

As soon as the edict of the Son of Heaven came out, the audience was immediately in an uproar like a landslide and tsunami, and even Li Dao stayed on the spot.

"General Huangfu!" Guo Yan looked coldly at the equally stunned Huangfu Song: "If you still obey the order of the Son of Heaven, please return to this formation immediately and help the general kill the Li thief!" ”

"Huangfu Song obeys the order!" Huangfu Song was like a basin of cold water poured from his head, full of excitement, and at the same time grasped the truth behind the whole incident, he did not hesitate to turn his horse back to the battle.

"Got it! Ben finally got it! It turns out that everything is planned by Nanying behind the scenes! Li Dao's eyes were murderous: "Guo Yan, you traitor to the Xiliang Army!" Our Xiliang Army has fallen to the present, thanks to Nanying, you will wag your tail and beg for mercy from him? Are you worthy of the thousands of brothers who died at the hands of the Bohai Navy? ”

"That's a big fallacy!" A familiar voice shouted loudly: "Ying Yang Zhonglang will be the uncle of the Great Han Emperor, which is the orthodoxy of today!" And our Xiliang Army is precisely because of its improper name and bad words, so it will end up like this! ”

With a long shout, a person behind Guo Yan slowly rode out of the crowd.

"Isn't this Lang Zhongling?"

"Really, it's indeed Li Junshi!"

"He's not dead?"

"Why is he on Guo Yan's side?"

Li Daojun exclaimed in surprise when he was neutral, and people's hearts were shaken again. Because the person who appeared was none other than Li Ru, the important minister whom Dong Zhuo relied on as his confidant the most.

"The trend of the times, the righteousness of the present!" Li Ru stared at Li Dao expressionlessly, and said coldly: "Li Dao, you and I are considered to have an intersection, listen to me...... If you don't come to your senses, not only will you hurt your brothers, but even you will die without a place to bury! ”

As soon as he said this, the soldiers behind Li Dao looked at each other, and many people couldn't help but lower their weapons.

"Good! Good! Good! Even you, Li Ru, became the eagle dog of Nanying! Li Wei laughed angrily, although despair gradually arose, but the arrogant and wild nature still prevailed, he shouted wildly: "Ben will be here, have the courage to let the horse come!" Let's see which of you can kill the general! ”

"I can kill you!" His voice fell, and suddenly two people shouted in unison on his side.

In an instant, the spear in Fan Chou's hand on the left and the long knife in Hu Che'er's hand on the right side were submerged into Li Dao's ribs at the same time.

Li Wei let out an earth-shattering scream, his eyes bulging and trying to turn his head, but finally blood spurted wildly from his mouth, and his eyes turned dark.

In the unbelievable gaze of tens of thousands of soldiers, Li Dao, a fierce general of the Xiliang Army, shook his body, fell heavily from his horse, and fell into the dust.
