Subsequently, Ma Chao ordered the soldiers to tie up Li Dao and Guo Yan and drag them away. When Ma Chao, Fu Tong and others returned to the battlefield, the Liangzhou army was cleaning up the battlefield and dealing with prisoners.

"Lord!"

Ma Chao stepped over to Li Mu, gave a salute, and then said loudly: "The two thieves Li Dao and Guo Yan have been captured now, how should they be released?" ”

"You've done a great job!"

Li Mu said with a smile, and then said in a deep voice: "Bring these two thieves forward immediately!" ”

For about ten breaths, the soldiers of the Liangzhou army dragged Li Dao and Guo Yan to Li Mu like dragging dead dogs. At this time, Li Wei was already tortured and dying, and Guo Yan was quite better.

"A thief against the country, can you expect it today?"

Li Mu looked at Li Dao and Guo Yan, and said with a low smile.

"I respectfully ask the Marquis of Ningcheng to forgive me...... The criminals Li Dao and Guo Yan ...... I am willing to swear allegiance to the Marquis of Ningcheng...... I still hope that the Marquis of Ningcheng will spare me, but I will wait for the dog's life! ”

Guo Yan immediately knelt on the ground, Li Wei lay on the ground like a dead snake, and the two of them begged with tears and solemn hisses on their faces.

"Since...... You two are dogs! ”

"Why does Ben Hou want to keep his life waiting for him? Someone is coming, and Guo Yan Lingchi will be executed immediately! Punish Li Dao in the palace and ...... again Ling Chi was executed! ”

"Immediately ordered the Wudang Legion to arrive, and ordered its troops to enter Beidi County, Liangzhou. After the army breaks through Beidi County, kill the seven clans of Li Dao! ”

"Immediately order Zhang Ye to guard Zhen Yan too much, and order him to kill the five clans of Guo Yan! Make no mistake! ”

Li Mu looked at Li Dao and Guo Yan, who were worse than death and miserable, and then said with a low smile.

Li Dao and Guo Yan, who were veteran generals on the battlefield, heard Li Mu's military order at first glance, and their eyes went dark, and they fainted! It turns out that these two are just rats who are strong on the outside and dry on the inside!

In order to deter the captives of Li Dao and Cao Cao, Li Mu executed Li Dao and Guo Yan Ling Chi in front of this group of captives. This group of captives immediately swore heartbreakingly that they would be loyal to the Liangzhou army and would not betray Li Mu.

By the time Li Mu had dealt with all these things, half an hour had passed. At this moment, a probe Ma came to report, "Lord, Cao's army has retreated to the front line of Tiger Prison Pass. At present, the Tiger Prison Pass has been occupied by Cao Jun. ”

"Probe!"

Li Mu waved his hand and motioned for the scout to go down.

"Lord!"

Ma Chao immediately said in a deep voice: "Now, Cao Jun is guarding the Tiger Prison. Even if we occupy Guanzhong, we are undoubtedly on our backs! ”

"I originally wanted to take advantage of the situation to chase and kill Cao Jun, so that he could escape from the Tiger Prison Pass in panic, so as to take the opportunity to defend this Xiong Pass. He ever thought...... The capable people under Cao Cao's command actually forced Long Xiang to retreat. ”

"But...... It's okay too! Now, Cao Cao has welcomed the Son of Heaven and will inevitably return to his hinterland as soon as possible, and the garrison of Tiger Prison Pass will naturally not be too many.

Moreover, it is much easier to attack Tiger Prison from the west than from the east!

In addition, if our army bypasses Da Ling Mountain and then goes out of the revolving gate pass, it can go directly to the east of the Tiger Prison Pass. At that time, our army will be able to attack the tiger prison from east to west!

At that time, there is no need for me to wait for the attack, Cao Jun will naturally lead the troops to retreat! ”

Li Mu nodded, thought about it for a while, and then became a bamboo in his chest.

"If the Cao army is defending the Tiger Pass, the reinforcements of the Cao army will come from Longcheng and Yuting from the east. Isn't the army outside the Tiger Prison ...... Enemy on the belly and back? ”

Ma Chao thought for a while, and then said the hesitation in his heart.

"What Meng Qi said is reasonable!"

Li Mu had already made a decision in his heart, and immediately said with a smile: "But...... Cao Cao, he didn't dare! ”

"Please also make it clear to the lord!"

Ma Chao's heart became more and more dazed, and then he was surprised.

"Right now, Cao Cao is ready to win the world, and his top priority is...... and my Liangzhou and Yuan Shao, and repair relations. Cao Cao's occupation of the Tiger Prison Pass was nothing more than a delay in the pursuit of our army. ”

Li Mu had already made up his mind in his chest, and then explained with a smile: "That's why Cao Cao didn't dare to fight to the death with our army, and Cao Cao didn't dare to fight on two fronts at the same time!" ”

"The Lord is really a man of God!"

Ma Chao thought less, thought deeply in his heart, and said with a look of respect.

"Lord Qi, General Lei and General Hao led their troops to help in the battle. It's ten miles away! ”

Just then, a herald came galloping in and reported.

"Let it march quickly!"

Li Mu was thinking about how to divide his troops to escort the prisoners, and when he heard Lei Tong and Hao Zhao coming, he was overjoyed, and immediately said aloud.

The herald hurriedly saluted and flew away. In about half an hour, Lei Tong and Hao Zhao came with three thousand Tianfeng troops.

"The last general will see the lord!"

Lei Tong and Hao Zhao turned over and dismounted, and Shi Li said loudly.

"You don't have to be polite!"

Li Mu said loudly: "Right now...... What is the situation in Chang'an City? ”

"Back to the lord, the chaotic army in Chang'an City has been cleared. When the two of us left Chang'an City, Xu Junshi, General Huang, and General Dian were leading their soldiers out to settle the people and open a warehouse to help the people! ”

Lei Tong immediately replied loudly.

"Lord!"

"When the two of us passed through the front line of Zheng County, Huayin, Hu County, Shaanxi County, Xin'an, and Luoyang, the displaced people ...... Countless! ”

"When the fleeing people saw the army, they either scattered and fled in all directions, or fell to the ground and begged for mercy! They don't ask for help from us, they want ...... We will spare their lives. ”

"It's miserable! Since the last general followed the lord, he has been accustomed to seeing the people of Liangzhou living and working in peace and contentment, such a tragic situation...... It's the first time I've seen it! ”

Hao Zhao took over the conversation, bowed to Li Mu, and said with a solemn face, and when Hao Zhao said the back, his eyes were already a little moist.

"Now that the situation in Chang'an City has stabilized, immediately send an order to Huang Zhong and order him to escort grain and grass soldiers into Shaanxi County and Mianchi to help the people along the way!"

"When you two escort the captives and captured supplies, when you return to Chang'an City in the west, if you encounter the fleeing people, you can distribute all the food and cloth to the people.

The two of you can send a message to the people along the way, asking them to go to the counties and counties, and the relief materials of the Liangzhou army will arrive later. ”

Li Mu sighed in his heart, 'The people are suffering, and the people are suffering'. Immediately, Li Mu said in a solemn voice.

"The Lord is benevolent!"

Ma Chao, Lei Tong, Hao Zhao, Fu Tong and others all replied in unison with solemn faces.

"Zihu, you personally hold the letter of the Hou Yin, and immediately rush to Ningcheng, and order Deng Zhi, Zhang Ji, and Li Hui to escort money, grain, cloth and other materials to Chang'an City.

At the same time, Jiang Wei was ordered to send troops to escort grain and grass. Those who dare to be ordered to be slow to move forward and act slowly can be cut first and then played! ”

Li Mu took out his seal letter from his arms, handed it to Zhao Feng beside him, and then said in a deep voice: "By the way, remember to report safety to the State Pastoral Mansion!" ”

"The last general commands!"

Zhao Feng took Li Mu's seal letter, and after giving the order, he immediately rushed to Ningcheng with twenty horsemen and flying horses.

Subsequently, Li Mu told Lei Tong and Hao Zhao again, and then led his troops to the Tiger Prison Pass.

After the Liangzhou army came to Daling Mountain, Ma Chao led the Longxiang cavalry and the lion army infantry to attack the Tiger Prison Pass. Li Mu and Fu Yi rode with the red bird, and the lion army rode to the revolving gate.
