Under Cao Cao's "sincerity", Yuan Shao was "grateful", and revealed to Cao Cao the news that he planned to make Qingzhou lose an arm and create a man-made incident against Qin Xu, which could not be lightly responded to by Cao Cao.

Originally, according to the plan of the three before the war, Qin Xu led Cao Cao's Xiliang troops to be suspicious in the east of Chang'an City, and after the fire broke out at the west gate of Chang'an, he withdrew to Tongguan to defend the defeated troops of Li Dao Guo Yan, who was expected to flee eastward, and then at the same time Cao Cao, who rescued the courtiers of the Son of Heaven, Yuan Shao and others led the army to attack back and forth, and they would definitely be able to complete the battle.

This is a good strategy, even if Li Dao Guo Yan saw through the calculations of Qin Xu and others, in the case of seeing that Chang'an was no longer possible, it was not as easy to attack Tongguan, which was relatively the weakest resistance, than to go north and merge with the Xiongnu, or to go south to Hanzhong in order to seek Shu. After all, not long after the new fall of Tongguan, in addition to the 3,000 troops led by Fan Chou, who had descended Qin Xu, there were still more than 10,000 Xiliang auxiliaries who were forcibly suppressed by Yan Liang's troops. Moreover, as long as you pass through Tongguan and enter Wancheng through Wuguan, and join forces with Zhang Xiu, another general of the Xiliang Army, according to the benefits of Wuguan, you can defend Hongnong according to the danger of mountains and rivers, control the land of Nanyang and take Yanzhou in the east, and suppress Xinye and Jingzhou in the south.

Therefore, when Chang'an broke through the two thieves and inevitably went east, how to successfully defend Tongguan became the top priority.

But at this critical time, Yuan Shao actually said that he had secretly ordered Yan Liang not to open the door when he came. Letting Xiliang have more than 100,000 iron cavalry against Qin Xu, who only had more than 10,000 Xiliang troops, although Cao Cao, who had been "bullied" miserably, also wished that someone Qin would die early and be overborn, but in this matter, Cao Cao saw Yuan Shao's "strategy". After successfully defeating the two thieves of Li Dao and Guo Yan. It can be regarded as a clever plan to find another way to "do things" and let Lu Bu have a hard time talking about Qin Xu's death! Directly refusing Qin Xu's army to enter the customs like this, and putting it in front of a cavalry ten times his own to die, so that fools can see that it is a plan to calculate Qin Xu, and he Cao Cao is also pulled into the game, isn't it a typical pit, harming others and not benefiting himself.

But fortunately, Yuan Shao also realized in time the serious "consequences" of the two thieves. was anxious to send someone to inform Yan Liang that the plan was canceled, and Cao Cao could only hope that at this time, Yan Liang, who hated Qin Xu very much, would not act selfishly. Let's come up with some tricks that will not be affected by the king's life outside. Otherwise, if Qin Xu died in battle, the two thieves escaped, which made Qingzhou Lu Bu angry. It's so easy to wait for some stable opportunities. I can't say that I will be in the war again.

"General Qin, the West Gate is on fire, and the city is in chaos! Presumably, the lord and Yuan Jizhou have already succeeded, and now we are less than three miles away from Chang'an, are we ready to return to Juntongguan to deal with the enemy? "The sound of killing in Chang'an City shook the sky, and Qin Xu and the others could still hear it clearly from miles away. Seeing that Qin Xu had no intention of returning to the army at this time, Xu Huang, who was entrusted by Cao Cao to temporarily obey Qin Xu's orders, flashed a mixture of joy and sadness on his face. As for Qin Xu, he asked in front of the horse.

"Does Komeito think I'll be able to go back?" Qin Xu smiled strangely and said, "The current guard of Tongguan is Yan Liang. I'm afraid that I have already obtained Yuan Shao's secret order, and I want to kill Qin! ”

"This ...... How can it be? Yuan Jizhou is a humble gentleman, it seems that he is a gentle person, this time General Qin sacrificed himself as bait to help Yuan Gong and Cao Gong break Chang'an, how could he ......? "Yuan Shao's surface kung fu has always been good, at least the posture of Corporal Lixian gives Xu Huang a pretty good impression. After listening to what Qin Xu said, Xu Huang subconsciously retorted.

"What's impossible? Between Jizhou and Qingzhou, although they do not offend each other on the surface, they have already become an endless trend in private, and the public must know that yesterday in General Cao's tent, Yuan Shao or Yan Liang were not happy, but they wanted to kill Qin. At the moment, such a good opportunity, just find an excuse to make the Tongguan gate not open, and we can be placed in front of more than 100,000 Xiliang iron cavalry, and we can become powder in an instant. On the battlefield, life and death are up to heaven, if I can not only avenge personal revenge, but also not get involved in cause and effect, if I were Yuan Shao, I would definitely do the same! Qin Xu smiled unabated, but the chill in the words he said made Xu Huang's face look solemn.

"Yuan Gong shouldn't have done this, right?" Xu Huang frowned and thought for a long time, glanced at the 10,000 Xiliang troops behind him, and said in a not very confident tone: "Besides, Cao Gong is on the side, if he learns about this, he will definitely persuade Yuan Gong to focus on the overall situation." Moreover, if we don't return to Tongguan to defend it, if Tongguan is lost, then General Qin, you ......."

"Thank you Gongming for thinking about Qin!" Qin Xu said with a smile: "Although Yan Liang's 10,000 cavalry were shot and injured a lot of horses when they seized Tongguan before, as long as they are not greedy for merit and rash, and do not give the Xiliang auxiliary soldiers of Tongguan who are just forcibly suppressed but not convinced, it is more than enough to hold Tongguan." Although Li Dao Guo Yan and others led a lot of people, but most of them were cavalry, it was impossible to carry siege equipment with them, this Tongguan was originally General Cao's hard attack for a month and it was not down, if there was no disaster of Xiao Wall, it would definitely be able to block the two thieves from advancing eastward! Moreover, Tongguan is only thirty miles away from Chang'an, even if there is chaos, Chang'an's chasing soldiers are within reach, as long as Yan Liang is not a fool, there is no need for me to wait to go back and cause chaos! Qin Xu smiled and comforted Xu Huang and said: "There are nearly 200,000 thieves in Chang'an City, and there are more than 100,000 soldiers alone. General Xu, Meng Degong entrusted you to Qin, do you dare to do a big thing with Qin now? ”

"Huh?" Seeing Qin Xu's confident appearance, even Xu Huang, who was heavy in his heart because of the situation Qin Xu's words, was stunned, paused slightly, looked at Qin Xu with complicated eyes, nodded heavily, and solemnly clenched his fists and said: "As long as you don't disobey the lord's order, General Qin has an order, and Huang will definitely die!" ”

"Gongming doesn't need to be so solemn, this matter is actually very easy, and if it succeeds, I can't say that General Cao will give Gongming a first credit in this battle!" Qin Xu replied to Xu Huang with a smile, as if he had inadvertently remembered something. said: "By the way, I don't know if Gongming knew the face of the Son of Heaven when he was in Chang'an?" ”

"This ......" Xu Huang really didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in Qin Xu's gourd. But he still replied: "Huang once visited His Majesty with the marshal, and because His Majesty was kind to General Yang at that time, Huang had the honor to face Tianyan." ”

"That's it! The order was given, and the whole army extinguished the torches and returned to the mountains on both sides of the Tongguan Pass to prepare for an ambush. The terrain of this Tongguan is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and only one horse can be accommodated in the semi-middle. Although the west side is slow, it is not accessible to horses, and the Xiliang army comes. We will camp at the foot of the mountain, abandon our horses and attack on foot, and take the strategy of internal strife in the Xiao Wall, and this is the time for us to look for an opportunity to do great things! Qin Xu's face turned grim. The command said, "Komei." You will take a thousand men and horses to Tongguan, tell me about our army being pursued, and test Yan Liang's reaction. If he welcomes him, he will be told with this plan, if there is any hesitation, or clever words, you don't have to pay attention to him, and quickly go to the left of the mountain to meet with General Qin and General Fan! Dead cat. That Yan Liang has seen you before, and this time you will go with Gongming! ”

"No!" Although I don't understand, since Qin Xu has already "suspected" Yuan Shao's head. It was determined that he must have arranged Yan Liang's affairs, but he still had to do such a thing. Moreover, Qin Xu's words even involved the Son of Heaven, which was even more incomprehensible to Xu Huang. Didn't Cao Cao and Yuan Shao go to rescue the Son of Heaven? Why would Qin Xu still ask like this? But the words had already been said just now, and Xu Huang also thought that this matter was just Qin Xu's way of self-preservation, and it was not contrary to Cao Cao's military order, so he immediately agreed.

More than 100,000 people want to evacuate a city, and there is no time to finish. What's more, from the west gate of Chang'an City, there are more and more enemy soldiers who are pouring in, and the offensive is becoming more and more fierce, Li Wei Guo Yan knows that it is impossible to bring out all these nearly 200,000 people, but in order not to use it to break the morale of the Xiliang soldiers, he gave the four coalition forces an opportunity, and when he saw that the Son of Heaven and the courtiers had been coerced by his own cronies Li Meng and Yang Ding under the command of Guo Yan, in a hurry, he simply ordered Guo Yan to lead an army to protect the two and drive the Son of Heaven and the ministers to quickly go out of the city and assemble to the east. Qin Xu's main formation, which was intended to break through the power of the cavalry and lead the Xiliang army to be a suspicious soldier in the east, took the headquarters to guard both sides of the east gate on the one hand, and personally climbed the city wall to supervise the battle.

I have to say that although Li Wei's wisdom was overshadowed by the light of these famous ministers and generals at the end of the Han Dynasty, he also did a lot of ridiculous calculations, such as sending away the West Gate of Chang'an for nothing, but he was also called "Sun Jian is not as good" as a figure, this move also made the morale of the low and abnormal because of the destruction of Chang'an City rebounded slightly, but it really stopped the offensive of the four coalition troops pouring into Chang'an City for a while, and only needed to prevent strange soldiers from attacking around the city from the north and south, which was enough to free up enough time. Evacuate Chang'an calmly.

"Lord, General Li has been on a bad relationship with you, but this time he personally broke off for you, will the intention be ......" Li Wei's move, not only Guo Yan, but even Guo Yan's confidant, Yang Ding, who was arranged to do the kidnapping of the minister, was also quite puzzled by Li Wei's sudden "righteous" move.

"Be careful! You also remember that even if there is a gap between the childish and a certain person, it is just a brotherly dispute, but it is still enough to be entrusted on top of major events! Guo Yan heard what Yang Ding said, and a little hesitation flashed in his eyes, but then he said: "At present, the Son of Heaven and the Princesses are in our hands, which will inevitably lead to Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others to attack, that is, Qin Xu'er, who led the surrender army as a suspicious soldier, is said to be not a good stubble, although there are few soldiers and most of them are new people in our army, but there have been ancestors who have defeated Cao Mengde's tens of thousands of troops by surrendering troops, and we need to be cautious!" Not the slightest carelessness! Well, I heard that Yan Liang is the number one fierce general under Yuan Shao, and there is a large army in hand, so the tighter the defense in wartime, it is necessary for us to take another way, but I am afraid that dozens of people will not be able to help him......"

"Lord, rest assured! According to the general, dozens of people are enough! Tongguan is in danger, and Fan Chou has been guarding for a year, but he has never noticed it. That Yan Liang for the first time to control such an easy to defend and difficult to attack the Xiongguan, even if you are cautious, in a short period of time will not notice that there is a different way straight to Tongguan, dozens of people are few, but there are forced in the Tongguan of our army auxiliaries as an internal response, no other, as long as you can make some chaos, only ten breaths, you can open the door on the west side of Tongguan, when the time should be under the external combination, even if that Yan Liang has the courage of ten thousand people, it is difficult to escape the danger of chaos. Yang Ding saw that Guo Yan didn't want to make more remarks on the matter after Li Wei's break, and he didn't say anything anymore, and after hearing Guo Yan ask about Tongguan, Yang Ding swore and said.
