"What? Zhangxian was lost in less than half a day? ”

After receiving Zhou Yi's letter and the reports of scouts from all walks of life, Han Sui, who was sitting in Jincheng, almost dropped his jaw in shock, and couldn't close his mouth half-loudly.

When Han Sui's staff heard this, they were also dumbfounded, and they didn't know what to say, even if 10,000 pigs were placed in front of the Bingzhou army, they might not be able to catch them for two days, let alone 10,000 Xiliang soldiers with swords.

Han Sui's main force, at this time, is deployed in the Guzang area, blocking Wuwei's traffic arteries, in case Ma Teng rises again, if Han Sui loses Longxi, it is equivalent to a stab in his flank, if he tries to withdraw back to attack Longxi, reduce Wuwei's defense, and ensure that Ma Teng will not fish in troubled waters and return to Wudu, at that time, the situation will be greatly unfavorable to himself.

"Lord, I don't know whether to say something or not." Yang Yue, the strategist under Han Sui's account, said unhurriedly.

"Speak." Han Sui shook his wrist, a little dissatisfied with his tone of selling off.

"I think it was a wrong decision for the lord not to save Cheriji and Yadan in the first place."

Han Sui raised his head and frowned. Yang Yue's words were very unusual, and he motioned for Yang Yue to speak in more detail. Yang Yue stepped forward and clicked on the cowhide map behind Han Sui, and his fingers pressed on Xiqiang: "Yadan and Cherrigi died, Yue Xi successfully became the king of Xiqiang, this Yue Xi has always been Ma Teng's diehard party, if Ma Teng returns to Wuwei, Yue Xi will definitely support Ma Teng and help him recover Wuwei, which is also the thing that the lord is most worried about"

Han Sui glanced at Yang Yue, he seemed to understand what Yang Yue meant, what Yang Yue meant. If he had sent troops to support Cheriji and Yadan, I am afraid that it would not be Yuexi's turn to be the king of Xiqiang at this time, so he would have looked back and concentrated on running Longxi, so Yang Yue blamed Han Sui for making a mistake in decision-making, resulting in an unfavorable situation that he could not take care of each other today.

"Is there a way to remedy this?" Han Sui's flat eyes. A sharp light flashed, like a poisonous snake ready to spit out a letter.

Yang Yue grinned and seemed to smile: "Step by step, you can keep it, if you can't keep it, give up, and deploy the army in the area from Shicheng to Yuzhong, as long as you ensure that Lu Bu's army does not go out of Longxi......"

Yang Yue didn't say much, he knew that what Han Sui was best at was not grasping the measure, but finding the seven inches. Han Sui is like a poisonous snake, always biting the opponent's vital point at the most sharp angle, and then injecting venom into it, he has seen it more than once or twice, which is also the reason why Han Sui can stand tall in Xiliang's several wars, in this world, Han Sui only believes in himself, and he doesn't believe in outsiders. Including his closest relatives.

Han Sui lowered his head and pondered for a while, in vain. Raised his head suddenly, his eyes flashed with cruelty, and his gaze shot straight at Yan Xing under the tent: "Yanming, you go to Longxi to help me defend the remaining three counties, if you can hold it, you can defend it, and if you can't hold it, you will return to Jincheng County." Spread the army around the river. ”

"No!"

Yan Xing immediately shouted a promise, turned around and prepared to order Qi soldiers and horses, but before he could walk out of the big tent, Han Sui's voice came from behind: "Bring Zhou Yi's head back to me." ”

Yan Xing was stunned for a moment, and stopped to be silent for a while. But he never opened his mouth to speak for Zhou Yi, if it was changed in normal times, Zhou Yi might still have a glimmer of life, but he just left a stall when Han Sui was ambushed on all sides, who can blame him? Yan Xing stared at Han Sui with a complicated mood for a while, and then said slowly: "The last general is ordered!" ”

A day later, before Yan Xing could lead the army from Jincheng, one by one the battle reports were overwhelmingly transmitted to Han Sui's hands.

Han Sui sat quietly behind the handsome case, his eyes were full of monstrous anger, when he was young, I saw him slam the table case suddenly, and said angrily: "Zhou Chao, Zhou Yi, Zhou Chao, these three fools, they are really brothers, one is more stupid than the other!" ”

Since the entry of the state army, Xu Huang, Huang Zhong, and Gan Ning have conquered Zhangxian, Didao, and Shouyang, and after the convergence of the three people, they began to advance step by step, breaking through dozens of defense lines in Angu, Longsang, and Baishi along the way, and driving straight into 500 miles, and now the war has been advanced to the territory of Daxian, which is only 200 miles away from Paohan.

What made Han Sui and his staff feel a headache was that Xiqiang's side seemed to be about to move, and had already driven the army to the West Sea a hundred miles away from Longqi City to assemble, not only that, but Huang Yan of Jiuquan County also led the army to gather in Dichi, and there seemed to be some big moves, all this abnormality even made Han Sui a little suspicious, whether Ma Teng had returned to Wuwei. And Ma Teng and Lu Bu seem to be brewing a conspiracy against themselves.

Yang Yue also felt that the development of things seemed to be unfavorable to them, so he automatically asked Ying to rush to Baohan with Yan Xing, preparing to block the attack of the Bingzhou army, and Han Sui also personally led the army to be distributed in the area of Longqi City to see what Yue Xi was fighting.

A few days later, Yang Yue and Yan Xing led a large army into Paohan, the two armies have not yet clashed, they scolded inside and outside Paohan City, the next day, the two armies fought a battle on the Qingyuan, but did not get any bargain, and then Yang Yue lured the enemy deeper, and took the initiative to meet the enemy, and let the scholars of Paohan City surrender, but what made Yang Yue feel a headache was that this Gan Ning was not only good at using soldiers, but also calm-minded, and the general strategy did not work for him at all, under Yang Yue's planning, Han Suijun set up traps several times to lure Gan Ning into the shortlist, but Gan Ning successfully saw through, not only made Han Suijun work in vain, but from time to time let Gan Ning plan and lose, lost a lot of soldiers and horses, and was repeatedly defeated by the Bingzhou army, and then the other two soldiers and horses of the Bingzhou army also drove to Paohan, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, Gan Ning, Xu Huang, Zhou Tai and others are all fierce generals with the courage of ten thousand people, which makes Han Suijun feel more difficult to fight, and falls behind everywhere.

Before Huang Zhong and Xu Huang came, Yan Xing relied on Yang Yue's advice and could still compete with Gan Ning, and each of them slashed each other with knives and guns in front of the battle for more than 100 rounds, although Yan Xing was defeated in the end, but he could also retreat with his whole body.

But when the Bingzhou army came to Huang Zhong and Xu Huang, Han Suijun completely lost the courage to fight generals, especially when he saw Huang Zhong's banner, the generals under Han Sui's account could rush to the neck cold, lest one of them be cut off from the horse.

The princes of the eighteen towns sat on 340,000 Kwantung soldiers, and there were no less than 1,000 generals. But he was still driven to the front of the battle by Huang Zhong and beheaded Yuan Shao's generals with one sword, so when Huang Zhong's banner was opened, the generals under Han Sui's account were so frightened that they shrank their necks and retreated, not to mention mustering up the courage to go into battle and call for battle. Yan Xing relied on his superior martial arts skills to challenge Huang Zhong single-handedly. After seventy or eighty rounds of fierce battle between the two, Yan Xing was slashed away by Huang Zhong's knife, if it weren't for his fast horse, I am afraid that he would have become Huang Zhong's revenant under the knife at this time.

The 500-mile defense line built by Han Sui's army and the 10,000 Qiang and Di miscellaneous soldiers can block the 30,000 horses of Huang Zhong and others for half a month, which can be said to have done their best, if it were not for Yang Yue's planning, Yan Xing's desperate battle, if it was not for the dangerous road in advance. Traps were dug and antlers were erected, and fortifications such as arrow towers, beacon fires, and trenches were set up in steep places, but I was afraid that they would have been driven straight into by the commander of the state army.

After the two sides held each other for half a month, Lu Bu led the army to Paohan one after another, under the planning of Jia Xu and Li Ru, the city of Paohan was broken by the Bingzhou army in less than half a day, Yang Yue was also killed by Wei Yan in the chaos, and Yan Xing led 10,000 remnants of the army to retreat to Heguan.

Han Sui consulted with his staff for a long time. It was decided to abandon Heguan and Shicheng counties all the way to the entire territory of Longxi to avoid being attacked by Lü Bu and Huang Zhong. In that case, it will not be Heguan who will be besieged, but the tens of thousands of troops commanded by Yan Xing and the Zhou Dynasty.

After receiving Han Sui's military order, Yan Xing quickly retreated to Xihan and Xihan in Jincheng County, refusing to defend the city and using the big river as a moat. Defending against danger, it formed a horn with Yuzhong in the east, and each other was restrained and the state army, and Han Sui also led his staff to retreat to the south and garrisoned on the plain hundreds of miles away from the river. Fences were set up along the river to prevent Lü Bu's army from crossing the river and attacking Jincheng County.

Lü Bu led a large army to compete with Han Sui this time, abandoning the previous plan of only taking four counties, with two purposes: first, to recover the four counties and their counties in Longxi, drive Han Sui and Liang Shuang's soldiers and horses out of Longxi, and achieve complete control of Longxi. The second and most important purpose is to garrison the river, wait for Ma Teng to send troops, as long as the time comes, join Ma Teng to attack Jincheng County and pull out the poisonous weed of Han Sui.

And now, the first strategy has been preliminarily achieved, and it is believed that Zhang Liao's good news will be received soon, and only the second one is left to be implemented, but Lu Bu believes that it will not be long before he receives the news that Ma Teng will lead the army to attack Jincheng, because he has already smelled the smell of a big war.

Sure enough, as Lu Bu expected, when he and Han Sui's army confronted each other along the river, Ma Teng led 30,000 Qiang soldiers and 20,000 Xiliang soldiers to attack Jincheng in two ways, all the way to attack Longqi City with the Qiang soldiers led by Yue Xi, all the way to attack Fanhe led by Ma Teng and Huang Yan, and went straight to Guzang.

It was not until this time that Han Sui knew that all this was a conspiracy set up by Lu Bu and others, Lu Bu recovered Xixian, stationed troops on the river, and made a gesture of feint, just to let Han Sui focus on Lu Bu's side, so that Ma Teng had the opportunity to escape back to Wuwei. As for Cheng Yin and Cheng Yinggong, maybe they have already taken refuge in Ma Teng, maybe they have been playing tricks on themselves all the time, or maybe they are seeing the wind and making the rudder, in short, now he is already embattled and suffering from the enemy.

Han Sui is not stupid, but sometimes he is also smart, he first killed Bian Zhang, Beigong Boyu, Li Wenhou and others who rebelled against the imperial court with him in his early years, and then indirectly killed Cheriji and Yadan who cooperated with him, this time, he finally planted on his means of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.

Han Sui had 100,000 soldiers and horses, in the face of embattlement, he divided the soldiers and horses into four parts, one led by him personally, went north to block Ma Teng, one led by Yan Xing, blocked Lü Bu along the river, and one headed by the Zhou Dynasty, held Yuzhong, preventing Cheng Yin and Cheng Yinggong from entering Jincheng, as for Yuexi in the north, Han Sui let his Qiang general Su Shen lead 20,000 Qiang soldiers to Longqi City to garrison.

When Jia Xu saw the battle report in his hand, he suddenly shook his head and smiled: "Han Wenyue, Han Wenyue, the smart one was confused for a while, and at this time he divided his troops and dug his own grave." (To be continued......)
