After entering Chang'an, the Taiping army took possession of some of the materials left in Chang'an by Li Dao and Guo Yan, with a lot of luxury goods, countless gold, silver and jewelry, but not much more practical grain and grass.

Generous to others, Guo Jia has always liked to do, gold, silver and jewelry were distributed to Ma Teng Han Sui, and wine was taken out to add some atmosphere to the celebration banquet.

Staggered, pushing glasses and changing lamps, laughing constantly at the celebration banquet, and frequently toasting between the generals who were drunk and drunk, you come and I call brothers and sisters.

At the end of the banquet, Guo Jia drank a lot of wine, calmly entertained, and left with reason, and under the darkness of the night, he came to the camp where Guo Ye lived.

"Jin is Zheng Fu, and if you want to repair Wu Hao, you will join the princes. The envoy told Qi and said: "The widow is a widow, with the difficulty of the years, and the widow is willing to meet with one or two brothers, in order to conspire with him, please come to him, and make the widow beg for the alliance." "Qi Hou wants not to allow it, and it is difficult to disagree, but it is an alliance outside the ......"

Jia Xu's light tone was reciting Zuo Chuan in the tent, Guo Jia stopped to listen, did not bother, and couldn't help but show a faint smile.

After a while, Jia Xu's voice gradually lowered, and then disappeared.

Jia Xu, who walked out of the camp, unexpectedly found Guo Jia, and after making a salute, asked, "Isn't the envoy holding a banquet to celebrate?" ”

Waving his hand, Guo Jia invited Jia Xu to take a walk in the camp together.

"Ming said that I will lead the army to the east, and I have a few words to say to Mr. Dian Wei, Mr. and Ye'er should be fine under the protection of Huwei."

Hearing Guo Jia arrange him and Guo Ye so solemnly, Jia Xu frowned slightly.

seemed to have guessed the reason, and asked rhetorically: "Isn't the envoy going east to meet the Son of Heaven?" ”

Guo Jia wanted to exterminate the Huns who dared to go south, Jia Xu didn't know about this decision, but he guessed at the moment that Guo Jia hadn't put away his troops yet, and there must be a big war, but he couldn't guess who the target was.

If you fight Ma Teng and Han Sui, why go out of the city? It would be easy to bury Ma Teng Han Sui in Chang'an, but Guo Jia would fall into injustice.

What do you rely on to recruit talents? The background is not enough, the strength is not enough, and it is necessary to add benevolence and righteousness.

Jia Xu's care and teaching for Guo Ye, Guo Jia saw it, and he could put his heart into Jia Xu, because if you want to be served by a person like Jia Xu who is a genius, you must first be open and honest.

"It's not a secret, after the Xiongnu Zuoxian King went to Bei and led the army to help the Son of Heaven repel Li Dao Guo Yan, he recently led the army to advance to Guanzhong, he has more than 50,000 men and horses, and he is not satisfied with burning and looting in Hedong, I am afraid that he wants to sweep Guanzhong before stopping."

Guo Jia only said half of what he said, and did not officially say that he wanted to fight the Southern Huns, but the meaning was already obvious.

Jia Xu thought further, and asked tentatively: "Does the envoy even want to calculate Ma Teng and Han Sui together?" ”

Glancing at Jia Xu in surprise, Guo Jia smiled and said, "Wenhe, if you are not much different in age from me, I will marry you as brothers with different surnames." ”

The strategy of dealing with Ma Teng and Han Sui is a question that Guo Jia constantly thinks about.

If this step is wrong, it will affect the overall situation.

"Envoy, Ma Teng Han Sui must still be alive now, even if they survive, as long as they return to Liangzhou alive, it will be beneficial to the envoy." Jia Xu's expression suddenly became solemn.

If Guo Jia really kills Ma Teng and Han Sui ruthlessly, he will not only cut off his arm, but also may invite annihilation.

Of course, Guo Jia has a plan in his mind, if he wants to kill Ma Teng Han Sui, he must borrow a knife to kill people, and to be humble is a knife sent to the door.

Morally, Guo Jia can push the blame away, but morality is often based on facts, not processes.

Therefore, the focus is not on how Ma Teng Han Sui died, but on Ma Teng Han Sui's life and death.

If they really die in Guanzhong, there will always be people in the world who will see through Guo Jia's behind-the-scenes situation, which is a fait accompli and Guo Jia is also reaping the benefits.

"What Mr. is worried about, I have also thought that if Ma Tenghan dies, it will be easy for me to annex Liangzhou, but now, I can't take Liangzhou, and I can't let them die. So, I can only suppress them and weaken them. ”

Guo Jia walked forward with his hands in his hands, Guo Jia under the moonlight was tepid and had no killing spirit.

Jia Xu breathed a sigh of relief, Guo Jianeng made this decision, which shows that he has always controlled the situation from the perspective of the overall situation.

Guo Jia, who has already taken the land of Sanfu, will sooner or later take Guanzhong into his pocket, in terms of territoriality, he is on par with Yuan Shao, if Ma Teng Han dies, the princes of the world will expect Guo Jia to take advantage of the situation to enter Liangzhou, then Guo Jia will sit on half of the country, will the princes still turn a blind eye?

With Guo Jia's current strength, it is considered the limit to be able to hold Guanzhong and Yizhou, and then expand to Liangzhou, if the Kwantung princes come to the alliance again, he will be hit by thunder.

The Kwantung Princes will be able to defeat Dong Zhuo and do not do their best, that is, Dong Zhuo is ambitious, but he has no strength, he has soldiers and generals, but he does not have enough territory to raise troops.

But Guo Jia is different, if Guo Jia takes Guanzhong and then captures Liangzhou, Guo Jia lacks nothing, what he lacks is the time required for the second round of recuperation, and after he expands his army and training strength to a higher level, he will go out of the Guandong Expedition and chase the Central Plains, who can stop the Kwantung princes?

There are countless talented people in the world, and they will sit back and watch Guo Jia become strong? I am afraid that as soon as Guo Jia took Liangzhou, the princes of Kwantung immediately reconciled, and the north and south roads destroyed Guo Jia as soon as possible.

The sudden rise of Guo Jia has disrupted the trajectory of history, so he can't leave anything to chance, and the pace of expansion must focus on the overall situation.

Han Sui Ma Teng can't die, but it doesn't mean that Guo Jia can't weaken them, Liangzhou can't be taken immediately, and it doesn't mean that Guo Jia can't prepare for taking Liangzhou.

"It is always the Son of Heaven who invited King Qin to go to Beibei, so that if you meet him in battle, you may be criticized."

Jia Xu reminded.

Such a reminder has been raised by other strategists in front of Guo Jia.

Guo Jia stopped and smiled casually: "There is some infamy, I don't want to memorize, but there is some infamy, I am willing to recite it." ”

laughing and talking all the way in the barracks, Guo Jia and Jia Xu talked freely until late at night before they went back to their tents to rest.

After dawn the next day, the three armies marched eastward.

Because Guo Jia gave Han Sui and Ma Teng the credit for the extermination of Li Dao and Guo Yan, he let the two lead the army to open the way, and Guo Jia led the army behind the palace to show that he had no intention of competing with the two for the merit.

Han Sui and Ma Teng didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this, they led the army together, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry followed them to lead, the foot soldiers followed behind, and then backward, it was Guo Jia's 30,000 foot soldiers.

Guo Jia's 30,000 foot soldiers brought 10,000 Xu Chu and Dian Wei, and Zhang Liao commanded 10,000 archers and 10,000 crossbowmen.

While this mighty army was heading east, there was also a great army marching west directly in front of them.

The Southern Xiongnu Zuoxian King went to Bei with his two nephews Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan to lead the army into the land of Sanfu, and sent various teams of men and horses to plunder the surrounding counties after leaving Tongguan, but they got very little, and they did not expect that the land of Sanfu would be a deserted scene.

But they did not give up, and continued to advance westward, plundering supplies and people as much as they could.

When Li Dao Guo Yan retreated to Chang'an, he did not expect that the land of Sanfu had changed hands, and when he went to lead the army to the west, he only thought that the land of Sanfu was only the defeated general Li Dao Guo Yan.

They also camped in the wilderness, and the army of Qubei carnivaled wantonly, dancing around the bonfire, and squandered the materials they plundered from Hedong and Hongnong, and even the wild silver laughter of the soldiers was heard in many camp tents accompanied by the cry of women...... King Zuo Xian went to Beibei and invited his two nephews into the big tent to talk, and while drinking wine, he asked for the opinions of Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan.

"Although Li Dao and Guo Yan returned defeated, I am afraid that there are still many troops in Chang'an, are we sure that we will attack Chang'an?"

Yu Fuluo patted his chest and said confidently: "The two of them are just the generals of the defeated army, and when we arrive at the city of Chang'an, they will definitely escape." ”

Hu Chuquan also agreed with Yu Fuluo's opinion, and immediately stated that he would go all the way to Chang'an and sweep Guanzhong.

"Ma Teng and Han Sui? These two are the leaders of the Liangzhou Army, will they also come to Guanzhong? "I was a little worried about going to humility, because I was afraid that Li Dao, Guo Yan and Ma Teng Han would unite.

Hu Chuquan didn't care, took a big sip of a bowl of wine, and mocked: "The Han emperor said that Han Sui Ma Teng helped him, since we were invited by the Han emperor, Han Sui Ma Teng has to be polite to us, otherwise, hum." ”

As long as Han Suima Teng doesn't come to stir up the situation, everything is easy to say.

The three of them continued to drink in the tent.

robbed the camp twice in half a month, and Gan Ning seemed to be getting more and more accustomed to riding back and forth with Yinling Fei like the wind.

This time, they aimed at the Xiongnu army, and the combat order was the same as last time, and they retreated with one blow, but the direction of retreat could not be Chang'an, but Wuguan.

The night wind was bleak, Gan Ning led the army to be twenty miles away from the Hun camp, this time they came from the west, planning to rush through the Hun camp in one go, kill as many as they could, and then turn south.

The singing, dancing and laughter gradually stopped, the Hun camp fell silent, and their confidence in carrying the momentum of the great victory swelled, although they were less prepared for danger in times of peace, but they were by no means frightened birds.

When the earth-shattering sound of horses' hooves came, the Huns who were patrolling the sentry found that there was an overwhelming cavalry raid in the west, and immediately shouted loudly, and the soldiers in the large camp hurriedly picked up their clothes and put on their weapons.

Their performance was much stronger than that of Li Dao and Guo Yan at that time, but the robbery of the camp was an accident, and if they did not take precautions in advance, they would still be a bad move.

Without a formation, the Hun soldiers, who could not form a joint force, were mixed together, and their weapons were raised to make limited resistance to the galloping Yinling flying horses.

Gan Ning, as always, took the lead, galloping away on horseback, holding a long knife and constantly slashing and killing the Hun soldiers, and Yinling Feiqi rode like a hungry tiger pounced on food, bloodthirsty and cruel.

Qubei kept beckoning the surrounding soldiers to resist the incoming enemy, and Huchuquan and Yu Fuluo also got on their horses to fight the enemy, but Yinling flew at full speed and galloped, they could only intercept, and the pursuit was just beyond reach.

But there are really people who want to chase and kill, Gan Ning is tall and mighty, and he is very eye-catching when he rides on a horse, killing the enemy bravely, domineering, Yu Fuluo guessed that Gan Ning is the leader of this enemy, so he patted his horse to chase.

Gan Ning, who had broken through the Hun camp and was about to turn south, found that there were Hun cavalry chasing him behind him, and also cut down a lot of soldiers who were flying with silver feathers, and looked back, under the moonlight, Yu Fuluo's hair was flying, his eyes were about to split, and he was wielding a big knife as hideous as a beast.

The corners of his mouth raised a disdainful sneer, Gan Ning didn't stop, withdrew the big knife, took off the longbow on his back, put on an arrow, full of bows like the moon, and turned around to aim at Yu Fuluo.

The bowstrings clanged, and the arrows burst through the air.

Gan Ning moved quickly, and everything was done in an instant.

Juvro fell off his horse with an arrow stuck in his head, and he didn't blink an eye.
