Xijun, Fuqu Mengxun came here after leaving Zhangye City, and it has been three days. In the past few days, there are many Huns who fled from Linsong and Qilian County, and the Hun army lost troops in the battle of Zhangye City, and Linghu Qian led his sergeants, and these days have taken Linsong and other counties.

These Huns fled to the east when the Xiliang army came, the city of Rile was already overcrowded, many Han people in the city were killed by the Huns, frustrated Qu Mengxun looked at those who were forced to flee, and wanted to kill back to Zhangye City.

None of the Dragon and Tiger Guards sent out by Jiyin came back from Guzang these days, which made Fuqu Mengxun feel very worried, but thinking of the strong city walls of Guzang City, Fuqu Mengxun was a lot more relieved.

"King, five thousand light horsemen have been recruited in the city, their homeland has been destroyed by the Xiliang army, they have a blood feud with the Xiliang army, and they are fierce warriors with a little training."

In the county guard of Xijun, Fuqu Funu is reporting the recruitment situation in the city to Fuqu Mengxun, and there are no less than 20,000 Huns who have poured into Rile City these days, and Fuqu Funu has recruited more than 5,000 soldiers and horses in these days.

"Good. Now my Da Liang is facing a huge life and death crisis, once the Xiliang army breaks through Rile City, then my Da Liang people will come to a catastrophe. Frustrated Meng Xun looked worried.

"The king rest assured, now there are nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses in the city, even if the Xiliang army of Xi'an County comes to attack the city, he is not afraid, the king only relied on thousands of iron horsemen under his command to fight this huge country, and one day the Xiliang army will definitely make the Xiliang army pay for the blood debt." Fuqu Funu said through gritted teeth.

"What my brother said is that if you don't take revenge, you won't be a man. I don't know how the fifth brother is doing in Guzang City, it's been two days, and there is no news from Guzang City, which is really worrying. ”

"The king doesn't have to worry, the grain and grass in Guzang City can be used for half a year, and the Nanliang soldiers and horses outside the city consume a huge amount of grain and grass every day, and I heard from the clansmen who fled from Qilian County that Tuyuhun's soldiers and horses have been frequently transferred recently, and now the rear of Nanliang is empty, and sooner or later they will withdraw to Ledu."

"Hmm. My brother is reasonable, Xijun must not fall into the hands of the Xiliang army, otherwise the Xiliang army will drive straight in, if I join forces with the bald Xianbei, my Daliang will be in danger of destroying the country. ”

The Zhenbei Army has been in Xi'an County for a few days, and the grain and grass in Zhangye City have been transported to Xi'an County one after another, which makes Li Yan feel a little relieved. Last night, Li Yan received an order from Li Xin, and Li Xin urged Li Yan to attack Xijun and take Xijun as soon as possible.

When Li Yan told Lei Ming the news of Li Xin's urging army, Iron Hammer couldn't help but scold, the Zhenbei Army now has only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and the Xiongnu army in Xijun is no less than the Zhenbei Army in Xi'an County, and forcibly attacking the city will only increase casualties.

"Generals, now that General Linghu has taken the three counties of Pseudo-Liang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince blames our Zhenbei Army but it has been delayed in Xi'an County, do you have a good plan to take Rile City?"

"General Qiyu, the scout came to report, after General Linghu took the three counties, many Huns fled to the west county, and now the soldiers and horses in the west county may have far exceeded the northern army of our town, and there must be a lot of casualties if you want to attack the city." Lei Ming has been paying attention to the movements of the Xiongnu soldiers and horses in Xijun in the past few days, and he is deeply worried about Li Xin's urging to promote the army.

"yes. General, it is not advisable to attack Xijun by force, otherwise the northern army of our town will not be able to bear the huge losses of the siege. Linghu Dezhao got up and said.

"Brother Han, is there any news from Guzang City?" Li Yan looked at Han Qian in front of him and asked.

"General Qiyu, there is no news yet, but it is said that there should be news tonight." Han Qian bowed and said.

"Good. Now there is only a lonely city left in Xijun in the territory of Pseudo-Liang, and the rest of the counties have all been taken by my Da Liang, and Xijun guards the main road of the Hexi Corridor, and we must find ways to take it down. ”

As the night deepened, a fast horse went straight to the county seat of Xi'an, and after explaining to the defending sergeant for a while, the fast horse entered the city.

The county guard, Li Yan was woken up by Wei Liang in the middle of the night, and there was a Nanliang sergeant dressed in black in the hall, with a tired face, and rushed to Xi'an County for two consecutive days, and a war horse died of exhaustion on the way.

"I wonder why your envoy came here late at night? Has the Duke of Guangwu ever taken Guzang City? Li Yan looked at the black-clothed sergeant in front of him and asked lightly.

"This is a secret letter from Guangwu Gong to General Li, please take a look at General Li."

"Oh?" Li Yan received the secret letter from the black-clothed sergeant with a suspicious face, and glanced at it through the dim firelight.

"Good! Since Guangwu Gong is willing to send troops to attack Xijun together, he will be grateful, you go back to tell Guangwu Gong, and say that I, Li Yan, have agreed to send troops to Xijun. Li Yan burned the secret letter in his hand, turned to the black-clothed sergeant and said.

"Thank you, General Li, for retiring."

Wei Liang immediately took the black-clothed sergeant out of the county guard's mansion, Li Yan sat in the hall and fell into deep thought, and the bald Wei Tan invited him to join him in the West County.

"Childe, there is news from Guzang City." As soon as Han Qian entered the county guard's mansion, he went straight to the conference hall, and Li Yan heard Han Qian's voice from a distance.

"Brother Han, you're here. Let's talk about it, how is Guzang City now? ”

"Childe, according to the report from the Blood Wolf Guard, the Nanliang army in Guzang City suddenly disappeared without a trace the night before yesterday, and Fuqu Yizi had already led the army to the west early yesterday morning, and now Guzang City is estimated to be an empty city."

"I see, no wonder the bald Wei Tan wants to send a letter to invite our Zhenbei Army to jointly attack the West County, it seems that the bald Wei Tan has other plans."

"Childe, this~" Han Qian looked at Li Yan with a puzzled expression.

Li Yan immediately sent a message from the Nanliang sergeant just now to tell Han Qian that if the bald Wei Tan had already left Xijun the night before, he should have arrived in Xijun soon.

"Are you saying that the Xiongnu army in Guzang City has left Guzang?"

"Yes, according to the Blood Wolf Guard, it seems that Fuqu Mashiko has given up Guzang City, and there are no soldiers and horses left in the city."

"Good. The bald Wei Tan said that he would send 10,000 soldiers and horses to help our Zhenbei army take Xijun, and it seems that the bald Wei Tan wants us to contain the Xiongnu army in Xijun for him, so that he can safely surround and annihilate the 30,000 soldiers and horses of Fuqu Mashiko. Without the sturdy walls of Guzang City, Fuqu Mashiko was no match for the bald Wei Tan anyway. ”

"Childe, what should I do then?"

"Haha. Since the bald Wei Tan wants to completely annihilate the 30,000 army of Fuqu Mashiko, then we will fulfill him, and early tomorrow morning, the army will march to Xijun. Li Yan laughed.

"Han Qian understood."

After Han Qian went out, Li Yan thought about the letter that the bald Wei Tan had given him in his mind, and strengthened the thoughts in his heart.

The bald Wei Tan wanted his Zhenbei army to contain the frustrated Meng Xun in the city for him, and he just happened to take the opportunity to seek Xijun, so he naturally would not miss such an opportunity.
