Liu Zhi held the military power in his hands, and then ordered the troops to march towards Chang'an. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Among the army, Cao Cao was strategic, and Liu Bei was the strongest, so Liu Zhi formed a partner with the two and led the 30,000 vanguard army to open the way for the army.

Among them, Cao Cao was named the general of Zhengxi, Liu Bei was named the general of Anguo, the two led the army to go down to Mianchi, Jiaocheng, and took the entire Hongnong County to the west, the Xiliang army seemed to have no intention of fighting in the east, they shrank their forces, concentrated the main men and horses in Chang'an City, and it seemed that they were preparing to defend Chang'an.

After Cao Liu's army was located in Xin'an's Hangu Pass, Liu Zhi's heart breathed a sigh of relief, Qin had the risk of Kuihan, so several joint attacks of the six countries of Kwantung did not succeed, and the Western Liang army gave up this desired pass, and withdrew the army to the Guanzhong Plain, although the battle on the plain was beneficial to the cavalry, but they also lost the room for strategic maneuver, as long as they lost once, they would be driven out of Chang'an.

However, with the westward advance of the army, the resistance of the Xiliang army became more and more intense, and when the army arrived at Tongguan at the foot of Huashan, the Xiliang army finally sent a large number of troops out to meet it.

Tongguan did not stand at this time, so its importance is far less than later, but because its geographical location is very important, even if there is no pass, it is still a place where soldiers must fight.

The commander of the Xiliang army is Li Wei's general Fan Chou, his subordinates have 20,000 cavalry, this battle is evenly matched, but Cao Cao used a plan to deceive the Xiliang army to the foot of Huashan Mountain, and then rely on Huashan to resist, the Xiliang army was in hand, Fan Chou obviously saw that the Cao army was thrown away armor, but he never thought that this was the enemy's plan to lure the enemy, and when his army came to the foot of Huashan, Liu Bei's troops suddenly killed from the north, and Xiahoudun's troops also killed from the east, they were all cavalry, With fast and slow, the formation of the Xiliang army was scattered all of a sudden, and Fan Chou's subordinates had another general, named Wang Shuang, this person was a native of Didao County, Longxi County, this manpower was amazing, using a meteor hammer weighing more than 80 catties, ordinary generals could not resist at all, and their combat was brave, daring to charge into battle, like a mad demon, so Fan Chou was regarded as a confidant.

After Liu Bei's army was killed, Fan Chou ordered Wang Shuang to go out and arrive, but he encountered Zhao Yun riding a chasing horse, Wang Shuang's hammer did not hit Zhao Yun, but was pierced by Zhao Yun's throat with a shot, a move killed, Fan Chou was shocked, the Xiliang army was also greatly frightened, and was killed by the Cao Liu coalition army in three directions.

The battle of Tongguan is the largest battle between the Western Expeditionary Army and the Western Liang Army so far, this battle killed and captured more than 20,000 enemy troops, not only greatly weakened the strength of the Western Liang Army, but also made the coalition army momentum, Liu Zhi also took the opportunity to lead the army to accelerate the advance, taking advantage of the victory to pursue, even under Zheng County, Hongmen, Baling several places, has reached the foot of Chang'an City.

At the same time, Ma Teng Han of Xiliang also led the army into Fufeng County in the west of Chang'an City, and took Wugong County and Crane Dock, so that the Xiliang Army was trapped in a small area centered on Chang'an.

"General, Ma Teng sent someone to deliver a letter to the front, agreeing to attack Chang'an together at the beginning of next month!"

A soldier hurriedly handed a letter to Liu Zhi, who opened it and looked at it, shaking his head and laughing.

How does this Ma Teng feel more anxious than himself, the current situation is very good, Liu Zhixin is not in a hurry anyway, but the time can't be delayed for too long, the logistics of the army will be a little unbearable if it is delayed for too long, in ancient times, logistics has always been a problem, the Northern Expedition held during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the actual combat force was less than 80,000 people, but nearly 500,000 people were dispatched to carry the materials and supplies needed by the 80,000 people, otherwise, let alone attack the Xiongnu in the north, I am afraid that even the Hetao area will not be able to recover it!

In Chang'an City, Li Dao was discussing the military situation with a group of generals at this time, everyone's faces were not very good-looking, Li Dao and Fan Chou had a discordant relationship, Fan Chou is the person who is currently second only to Li Dao in strength in the Xiliang Army, but Li Dao forced him to lead the army to issue a certificate, and the result was gone, which made everyone feel related, I don't know who Li Dao's next target is, and who is going to be killed by him with a borrowed knife this time.

Li Wei coughed, his expression was a little serious: "Generals, I think the current situation no longer needs me to introduce more to you, now that the enemy army is pressing the border, Han Sui, who originally promised to stand on our side, also betrayed us under the instigation of Ma Teng, and we are currently in the situation of being attacked by the enemy, which you must know very well in your hearts,!" ”

Li Wei glanced at everyone and continued: "At present, there are two ways out for my army, one is to be trapped in Chang'an, but without Han Sui's reinforcements, we can't hold Chang'an City, although Chang'an City has a strong city wall and perfect defense facilities, but we don't have enough food and grass in our hands, this is all thanks to you, if you don't indulge the soldiers to loot everywhere, I think, Chang'an City and the surrounding hundreds of thousands of people will not all flee with their families, leaving us such an empty city!" ”

"Chang'an City can't be defended, and I don't plan to defend it, originally we told Han Sui that we were going to Xiliang to avoid the limelight, but now we have been cut off by Ma Teng's army, Xiliang is afraid that I can't go back, but it doesn't matter, we still have a place to go, and that is here!"

Li Dao pointed heavily on the map, everyone looked over, and several people looked puzzled: "General, this is the territory of the Qiang and Xianbei people, they have a lot of people, according to the spies' report, there are at least 500,000 people, General, you know, 500,000 nomads, that is, there are at least 100,000 cavalry troops, there are so many of us, can they accept us when we move here?" ”

Li Wei's face was heavy, and he snorted: "When the prime minister was alive, they were all in awe of the prime minister like a tiger, and now the prime minister is not here, but the prime minister's army is still there, as long as we have an army in our hands, they will be in awe of us as before, if they dare to resist us, you know how to deal with it, negotiating with the enemy has never been a simple matter!" ”

Although everyone has doubts about this, there is indeed no better choice at the moment, there is no place for them in the world, and the place Li Dao said is indeed a good place to take refuge!
