"Strategist, the stakes are very high, please inform the lord as soon as possible." Guo Jiadao.

Jia Xu said in a firm tone: "When the lord is leaving, entrust me with all the military power of Chang'an, and listen to my arrangement, the lord will return to Chang'an in the near future, first stabilize the army's heart, if you find that there is a change in the city, arrest it first, wait for the fall, Chang'an will not be lost." He knew how much effort Jia Rong had put into Chang'an.

The sudden rebellion of the state shook the high-level of Chang'an, the Xiliang army has been fighting for many years, and it is the first time that this situation has occurred, a fast horse gallops to various places, and the rebellion of the state has sounded the alarm for the officials of Chang'an, the Xiliang army is not a monolith, there are always some people who can't resist the temptation and communicate with other princes.

The mobilization of the Central Plains princes finally attracted the attention of Jia Xu, after a short period of confusion, the princes appeared connected, and soon after the rebellion of Li Ru in Bingzhou, Cao Cao took the lead in leading the army to Hangu Pass, issued an edict, saying that the Han Emperor took revenge, Yuan Shao Liu Bei responded one after another, and the princes' army began to move closer to the Hangu Pass area, and Li Ru of Bingzhou directly led the army to attack Xihe County, Yan Rou of Youzhou also took advantage of the situation to send troops, when a person was very strong and strong, others were afraid of him and slapped the horse, And once the disadvantage is presented, you can witness the true allies.

Chang'an instantly became precarious.

The merchants of Chang'an have obviously decreased a lot, and even the people have heard some rumors that there are rumors, the people of Chang'an, either poor people or displaced people from the Central Plains, have received a lot of favors from the Xiliang army, and can't help but worry about the situation of the Xiliang army, although the clouds are shrouded, but the people still follow the rules and cooperate with the orders of the government, but there are still people who have been provoked, and they are arrested by the patrolling army without hesitation. The generals in the army have also been investigated to varying degrees, especially those who are related to Li Ru.

General's Palace.

"The lord will entrust the affairs of Chang'an to me and Zhang Li, and the officials and generals will be killed if they do not obey, and they will not be tolerated!" Jia Xu took out the general's seal and said sternly.

The needles in the house can be heard, and what happened in Bingzhou, Jia Xu has truthfully informed that as high-ranking officials, they naturally see the seriousness of the problem from this matter, Li Ru's rebellion, and the princes' mobilization of troops, all of which show the critical situation of the Xiliang army.

"The army of the princes wants to take advantage of this opportunity to attack Chang'an, and the lord has ordered to strictly guard the Hangu Pass, completely abandon the annexation of the state, and keep Chang'an."

Jia Xu's words set off a storm in the house, giving up and merging the state, looking at the rule of the Xiliang Army, it is only Liangzhou and the merger, in order to merge the state, the Xiliang Army can be said to have spent a lot of effort, and now give up, the officials are a little difficult to accept.

"The military division, the land of annexing the state, is the struggle of tens of thousands of troops, how can they give up lightly because the princes knock on the gate, and humiliate themselves to see the lord." An official arched.

"This is a strict decree of the Lord, and it must not be violated." Jia Xu shouted.

Zhang Li and Zhang Zhao also stood up for Jia Xu Zhuangwei, as soon as the three of them spoke, they also represented the military and political sides of the Xiliang Army, but some officials in the house were still puzzled, and the geographical location of the state was not unimportant, connecting the grassland, and it took a lot of materials to build the road.

After everyone dispersed, Jia Xu left Guo Jia, Zhang Li, Zhang Zhao and Chen Zhen.

"First withdraw the officials of the state, this is the foundation of our army, strictly investigate the generals in the army, if there is a change in the found, all of them will be imprisoned, waiting for the lord to fall, and the land of the state, it has cost our army a lot of effort, I don't know, but the princes are menacing, and there are Li Ru and Yan Rou peeping into the state, only gather troops, strictly guard the Hangu Pass, and guard the foundation of our army." Jia Xu said slowly.

"Strategist, the lord doesn't have any news yet?" Zhang Li asked.

The four of them stared at Jia Xu with blazing eyes, compared to the erosive situation in the state, they were more worried about Jia Rong's safety, at the beginning of the convening of the official general council, Jia Xu informed Jia Rong of the loss of news, and then the five discussed specific countermeasures.

"Not yet." Jia Xu felt a little bitter in his mouth, and he missed the person who usually hung up and didn't take politics and military affairs to heart, and only when he was really in danger did he know his importance.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the lord is not here, it is the time to test our courtiers, I hope you will work together to resist the attack of the princes, and completely stabilize the situation, so that after the lord returns to Chang'an, what he will see is a stable Chang'an, not a mess." Jia Xu stiffly and abruptly improved.

Everyone glanced at each other and nodded slowly, their eyes became more and more firm, but all the officials under the rule of the Xiliang Army were either unhappy among the princes, or they were poor scholars, and they had a certain ability to get to the present.

After getting Jia Xu's order, Huang Zhong did not hesitate to escort the officials back to Chang'an, and the grain and grass materials that could be taken away were pulled away, and those that could not be taken away were all destroyed, looking at the winding cement roads in Bingzhou, Huang Zhong suddenly clenched his fists and almost roared: "I will definitely come back!" The successive changes made this veteran completely angry.

If there is no Jia Rong, he is still a general guarding the city gate in Jingzhou, his son is estimated to have died under the entanglement of disease, he is not only grateful to Jia Rong, but also has awe and respect, the army pursues the capable and the weak, which does not make Huang Zhong feel the slightest discouragement, on the contrary, he is more combative than in the Jingzhou army, and he is working hard all the time to make his soldiers stronger.

The soldiers under his command also changed from the initial disdain to a deep awe, Huang Zhong was a general parachuted in after all, and the soldiers were somewhat unconvinced.

The war was about to break out, the huge machine of the Xiliang Army turned rapidly, 30,000 soldiers were stationed in Hangu Pass, and the soldiers and officials of the state evacuated back to Chang'an, and the grassland fell into a state of alert, Xu Shu was in charge of the three cities of the grassland, and there were such fierce generals as Lu Bu in his hands, and the tribes on the grassland naturally did not dare to make any changes, not to mention that Lu Bu's power on the grassland was extraordinary.

At this time, Li Ru's army was not very peaceful, he was able to obtain the six counties of Bingzhou, relying more on the laxity of Chang'an, Xu Rong, Fan Chou and other generals of the original Dong Zhuojun also gradually approached under the operation of Li Ru, and then rebelled in one fell swoop, and obtained the land of the six counties, but 70% of the soldiers in the army were the Xiliang army, how could they obey Li Ru's order to attack Paoze, the military order was not clear, how could the army have combat effectiveness.

If it weren't for the princes of the Central Plains to invade Hangu Pass, I am afraid that under the impact of the Xiliang army, the mighty Li Ru would collapse instantly.

Li Ru relied on his previous connections in Dong Zhuojun to replace some generals in the army, but he also knew that the low-level soldiers of the Xiliang Army were different from the princes' army, and they would not change their original intentions because of the change of generals, and all the instructors were gathered by Li Ru, but all the generals above the company commander were also locked up separately and did not let them be with the soldiers, even so, Li Ru also felt uneasy.

Since Jia Rong entered Chang'an for less than a year, Li Ru investigated the cause of Dong Zhuo's death, and then endured great hatred and joined the Xiliang Army, he has always been conscientious and conscientious, without the slightest fault, even if it is Xu Rong, the real reason for Dong Zhuo's death, Li Ru did not tell at first, but slowly cultivated Shili, and then took advantage of this opportunity to occupy the six counties of Bingzhou once, giving the Xiliang Army a painful blow, if it can't survive this difficulty, the Xiliang Army will be completely defeated.

There were 300,000 princes and alliances outside, and there was a rebellion inside, which was enough for Jia Rong to have a headache, and Li Ru naturally didn't know about Jia Rong's departure from Chang'an at this time.

Not only that, Li Ru also returned the Daijun to Yan Rou as a condition for Yan Rou to leave the army, he just wanted Jia Rong to experience the pain of losing from the great power in an instant.

It is a pity that Zhang Liao, who was stationed in the area of Yumen Pass, was unmoved when Li Ru raised troops to win over, no matter how Li Ru used his rhetoric, he always stood still, and it is conceivable that if Zhang Liao led more than 10,000 troops to rebel from Dunhuang and other counties, what kind of disaster would the Xiliang army face.

Huang Zhong withdrew, and Li Ru quickly occupied it, so that he already had all the territory of Bingzhou in his hands.

There were 60,000 standing soldiers in Chang'an City, and after leaving 10,000 soldiers, all the rest were dispatched, and the carriages wrapped in black cloth were transported to Hangu Pass.

Jia Xu sits in Chang'an, commanding the army in an orderly manner, showing his true colors in the chaos, Guo Jia asked himself if he can't do this, he is a little lazy by nature, unless the real battle on the battlefield will raise the spirit, and the admiration for Jia Xu in his heart is getting stronger and stronger.

This year's summer is destined to be a serious test for the Xiliang army, with 300,000 troops of the princes, and 60,000 troops of Yan Rou and Li Ru of Bingzhou rushing to the battlefield, and heavy troops gathered outside Hangu Pass.

As long as this level is broken, then Chang'an will be exposed to the edge of the princes, but is Hangu Pass so easy to break.

After the coalition soldiers came to Hangu, the first thing they did was to suppress the merchants to go to Chang'an to do business, the Chang'an craftsman workshop has moonlight cups and fairy love and other things to collect money, without the merchants to communicate with each other, the money and grain consumed by the army will become the biggest burden on the Xiliang army, among the princes, there is no question of exceeding the financial resources of the Xiliang army.

Although the practice of the princes' alliance made it a little difficult for Chang'an to operate in a short period of time, the princes always underestimated the means of the merchants, even so, there were still merchants who went to Chang'an through special means, and the war greatly increased the price of the fairy love moonlight cup in the Central Plains, and the merchants pursued profits, and the princes' army was not monolithic, the face and the heart did not match, and there were not many princes who secretly had contact with Chang'an.

The city of Chang'an is no longer prosperous, the market is bleak, and many people have lost their source of livelihood, if Jia Rong is here, he will definitely sigh that a battle of the princes' alliance has set Chang'an's economy back by at least a year.

Guo Jia was ordered to become the military advisor of Hangu Pass, and the main general was served by Guo Yan, supplemented by Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong.
