708. The battle in Chang'an City began

Of course, in Chang'an City, in addition to Han Sui's shock because of the news of this battle situation, Ma Teng's side heard the news and was also very surprised by the combat power shown by Zhu Wei's army.

So in the face of Chen Qun's persuasion again, Ma Teng's heart changed a little again, and his attitude towards Zhu Wei's side was also a little relaxed.

As for Zhong Xuan and Wu Xi, there are only more than 1,000 troops around them at the moment, and they are independent of Han Sui and Ma Teng's soldiers and horses, so they can only be at a loss for the current situation.

If Chang'an City was still unable to resist the attack of Zhu Wei's army, then they could only flee to Liangzhou.

Now there is still Liangzhou Mu Wei Duan on the Liangzhou side, but it can be regarded as controlling some troops, and has a certain amount of county control in Wuwei County and Hanyang County, and there are also such as Zhao Ang, Jiang Xu, Yang Fu, Yin Feng, Liang Kuan, Zhao Qu, etc.

It can be said that this Liangzhou Mu Wei Duan is the supreme ruler of the Han Dynasty in Liangzhou, but unfortunately Wei Duan is not like the state pastor of other states and counties who can control the situation in Liangzhou, and the existence of Han Sui and Ma Teng almost made his Liangzhou Mu an ornament that no one paid attention to.

Therefore, although there is still this Liangzhou pastor in Liangzhou, if even Han Sui and Ma Teng can't resist the offensive of Zhu Wei's army, then even if Zhong Xuan and Wu Xi escape to Liangzhou, what is the possibility of recovery.

And just when Han Sui, Ma Teng, Zhong Xuan, Wu Xi and others in Chang'an City were in a complicated mood, Wei Yan, Zhang Xiu, Zhang Liao, and Jiang Wan's offensive against Chang'an City also began.

According to the information provided by Cheng Lian and Ma Wan about Han Sui's army stationing in Chang'an City, as well as the information from Ma Teng's side, Wei Yan, Zhang Xiu, Zhang Liao, and Jiang Wan finally chose Xuanping Gate in the northeast corner of Chang'an City as the main direction of attack.

Han Sui's army was stationed in the north of Chang'an City, occupying the original Chang'an City East City, Taishang Emperor Temple, Gongwei, West City and other areas, and then the original Changxin Palace built in the north of Chang'an City seemed to be a corner, which became the location of Han Sui's main station.

It can be said that Han Sui's army basically took the area near the city wall in the north of Chang'an City as his military occupation area, not only the blocks mentioned above, but also some northern city walls became the garrison of Han Sui's army, so that Han Sui's army could condescend to attack the enemy he occupied.

And if Zhu Wei's army enters Chang'an City from Xuanping Gate, it can be killed along the Shangguan back street that leads directly to Changxin Palace, and it is estimated that the area where Han Sui's army is fighting is only on this street about 100 steps wide.

In addition, Ma Teng's army was based on the west of Chang'an City, occupying areas such as Huayang Street and Shangguan Front Street, but in these areas, that is, the Guigong Palace in the west of Chang'an City, it was relatively a defensive wall, and other areas were just ordinary blocks.

However, if Ma Teng made any changes, he might also send troops from Shangguan Front Street to Zhangtai Street to Shangguan Back Street to support Han Sui to resist Zhu Wei's army, after all, the main passages in Chang'an City were connected like a chessboard.

Of course, now the Xuanping Gate of Chang'an City has no defense, the city gate has been destroyed, and there are several breaches in the surrounding city walls, which can be directly rushed through the city gate and the city wall breach.

However, although Han Sui did not garrison Xuanping Gate, he also strengthened the building walls of Dongshi, Taishanghuang Temple, and Gongwei on the back street of Shangguan, making these places seem to have become garrison fortresses, which can be attacked or garrisoned.

Among them, Dongshi, which is located at the front, is more like a dock fort blocking the main road of Shangguan Back Street, which can be regarded as the forefront fortress of Han Sui's army against Zhu Wei's army.

According to the system of the Han Dynasty, all merchants could only rent or buy shops in the market to do business, and they were not allowed to set up shops outside the market.

Therefore, the market of the Han family is also similar to the modern market.

Of course, this is also said to be to facilitate the collection of commercial taxes and the management of commercial transactions, because the market is basically closed, so the merchants and the people can also be supervised when entering and leaving the market, so the officials who manage the market only need to check some vouchers similar to ticket stubs held by the people, they can calculate the turnover of the merchants, and collect taxes on the merchants.

But such a walled bazaar would be the most suitable fortress with a little modification.

Previously, when the warlords of Xiliang in Chang'an City were divided, this East City should have been used as a fortress, and now the ordinary stalls and shops in the city have basically been demolished, and the surrounding walls have also been specially reinforced, so the soldiers stationed in the East City can go up the wall to shoot arrows and throw stones to attack the enemy.

Now the Han Sui army stationed in Dongshi is Li Kan and Cheng Yin, who have retired from the hegemony before, and the remaining nearly 3,000 Liangzhou cavalry under the control of Li Kan and Cheng Yin are still stationed in Dongshi, of course, these cavalry have now become infantry.

Zhu Wei's army camped outside Chang'an City for a day of rest, and after sending scouts to investigate Chang'an City, they took Wei Yan's Jingnan battalion infantry as the main force and occupied Xuanping Gate in the north of Chang'an City.

Then Wei Yan and Jiang Wan took Xuanpingmen as the basis and led the Jingnan battalion to build a forward position to attack Chang'an City.

At the same time, the Tiger Wing Battalion led by Zhang Xiu and Zhang Liao, led by Zhang Xiu, continued to follow Wei Yan's Jingnan Battalion to prepare for the battle in Chang'an City, although the heavy cavalry was not suitable for climbing in street battles, but it could also break through the military formation constructed by Han Sui's army on the streets at a critical time.

Of course, Zhang Liao will also look for opportunities to fight at any time, perhaps directly to the north of Chang'an City and raid the Changxin Palace where Han Sui's main force is located.

In the face of Han Sui's layers of defense in Chang'an City, Zhu Wei's army was not in a hurry or slow, and after steadily occupying Xuanpingmen as the forward position, Wei Yan sent Chen Qi and Deng Yi to lead a small force to make a tentative attack on Dongshi.

And Deng Yi and Chen led their troops to the fortress-like East Market, and they just played a verbal battle, wanting to fool Li Kan and Cheng Yin to come out and fight alone.

Deng Yi and Chen were originally under the account of Jiangxia Zulang, and they were responsible for breaking the formation, and their martial arts were also good, Deng Yi had at least the strength of a third-rate general, and Chen had reached the strength of a second-rate general.

And Li Kan and Cheng Yin, who were stationed in Dongshi, like Cheng Yi and Ma Wan, were small warlords in Liangzhou who followed Han Sui's rebellion and grew up slowly from small soldiers, but they also had the strength of third-rate generals, otherwise they would not have the power they have today.

But they were also unwilling to play heads-up with others, so they completely ignored Deng Yi and Chen Qi's appointment.

Deng Yi and Chen were helpless, so they could only urge their soldiers to attack tentatively, but before they could get close to the high wall of Dongshi, they were beaten back by Li Kan and Cheng Yin's soldiers with bows and arrows and stones......
