The will of the Chang'an Imperial Court has been made public, as for who made it public, it is not known whether it is known, in this case, Ma Teng naturally cannot continue to attack Han Sui, if he continues to fight, it is not obviously inappropriate for the Chang'an Imperial Court.

But in the same way, Ma Teng did not withdraw his troops, but continued to confront Han Sui outside the city, and also showed his dissatisfaction with the imperial court's obvious favor for Han Sui, and told the world about Ma's persistence and grievances with practical actions.

This situation lasted for a few days, Zhang Ji was also a little helpless, Ma Teng could do this, it should be considered good, if he continued to persecute Ma Teng, it might be counterproductive, so Zhang Ji felt that it was necessary to put this matter aside, maybe as time passed, Ma Teng had enough temper and felt that the face was passable, and this matter would be easy to do.

Zhang Ji also told Han Sui about this idea, and sternly warned Han Sui not to continue to do anything that made Ma Teng misunderstand at this time.

Of course, Zhang Ji's judgment and disposition were also recognized by Chang'an, and the Chang'an court also further appeased Ma Teng, such as giving Ma Teng more grain and grass as long as Ma Teng agreed to withdraw the army.

In Sima Fang's view, the first thing to do in Liangzhou now is to find a way to exclude Fang Zhiwen, as long as the war ends in advance, no matter what benefits are given to Ma Teng, it is okay, and then provoke Han Sui and continue to friction with Ma Teng, and then Fang Zhiwen will have no good excuse to interfere, after all, Fang Zhiwen cannot garrison the army in Liangzhou for a long time.

Of course, Chang'an's plan is good, and Han Sui doesn't dare to make trouble for himself at this time, but it doesn't mean that others will follow Zhang Ji's ideas and pace.

It's just been a few days off. The matter came out, first of all, there were some strange rumors in the cities of Zhangye County, saying that Xu Rong's army was not here to help Han Sui resist Ma Teng's attack. Instead, he came to take the opportunity to occupy Zhangye, and the evidence was that in the city occupied by Xu Rong, there were no Han Sui's troops at all.

This rumor spread throughout Xiliang in just one day, and for a while, Han Sui almost became the laughing stock of everyone, self-righteously tearing up the covenant and framing his brother. Who knew that after being beaten, he led the wolf into the house.

This rumor annoyed Han Sui and made Zhang Ji very nervous, but before they could figure out what this rumor was about. Originally, the city commander appointed by Fan and Cheng Han was assassinated, and it seems that the matter was the hand of a stranger, and this kind of thing happened at this time, which obviously coincided with the rumors that had just spread.

Then. The city of Tita was also attacked. Although it was not fatal, but the city order was horrified, handed over the seal letter to Xu Rong's defending generals, and ran back to Chang'an with his family to the south, his behavior was like a signal, and the other city lords occupied by Xu Rong also automatically handed over the seal letter.

Zhang Ji and Xu Rong immediately assured Han Sui that the imperial court had no intention of watching those cities, if Han Sui did not believe it. Xu Rong's army could immediately withdraw from these cities and camp outside them. And let Han Sui appoint and dismiss the city orders of these cities on his own.

However, Han Sui had not yet issued a new appointment and dismissal, and another rumor came out, saying that Han Sui was dissatisfied with the behavior of the Chang'an court taking advantage of the fire and robbery, and wanted to make peace with Ma Teng again, threw himself at Fang Zhiwen, and was ready to kill Zhang Yimingzhi.

If Zhang Ji heard this rumor a few days earlier, he would definitely not believe it, but there is a peace with the city order that the soul is not far away, Zhang Ji is not so sure in his heart, every time he sees Han Sui protecting his troops around him, Zhang Ji has a feeling of being under house arrest, and it seems that his life will be over at any time.

Zhang Ji understands that even if Han Sui has no intention of killing himself, but Ma Teng and Fang Zhiwen now have a reason to do it, as long as they push this headless case to Han Sui in the future, it will definitely be a stranger anyway, and the current rumors are probably to pave the way for this matter, no, from the beginning, those rumors appeared in order to kill Zhang Ji!

Zhang Ji was really scared this time, not only worried that Han Sui really had the intention of rebelling, but also worried that he would be killed by Ma Teng once he left Han Sui's protection, and in fear, Zhang Ji finally thought of a way, that is, to leave Zhangye and go to Shandan, and it was the safest place to take refuge in Xu Rong's military camp.

It's just that as soon as Zhang Ji made such a request, Han Sui's expression was wrong, if Zhang Ji ran away at this time, who would restrain Ma Teng, and in case, as the rumors said, Xu Rong's real purpose was actually to completely annex Zhang Ye, then Zhang Ji's departure would also mean that Han Sui had lost his last hostage.

"Master Zhang really wants to leave?"

"This covenant, the official is in Zhangye City, but it will become a target, if there is any accident, the responsibility of the covenant will be cleared 1

"Isn't Lord Zhang not believing in the ability of the lower officials, and worried about the safety of the adults that the lower officials can't support?"

"This is naturally not, it's just, it's just that the official thinks that at this time, Wenyue should avoid suspicion, hehe, avoid suspicion 1

"Avoiding suspicion? Why do you want to avoid suspicion, will the lower officials hurt Lord Zhang? In the entire Xiliang, the one who is most worried about the safety of Lord Zhang should be in the next place, right? Lord Zhang was in a hurry to leave, could it be that he was worried about something else? ”

Zhang Ji asked a little inexplicably: "Something else, what is it?" ”

"I'm worried that something will happen to General Xu Rong's side, and Lord Zhang will be unable to advance or retreat at that time?"

"What will happen to General Xu Rong's side, he is strong and strong, and there is no enemy activity around, unless"

"Then it's better to let General Xu Rong come to Zhangye City and Zhaowu in exchange for our army to return to the south of Shandan, so that Ma Teng will definitely not dare to act rashly, and the adults can also smoothly meet General Xu Rong, is this good?"

"This, how is this possible?"

Zhang Ji knew that Xu Rong would never come to the front, if Xu Rong came to the front, Han Sui would definitely try his best to make Xu Rong and Zhang Liao fight, this kind of thing is definitely not difficult to do in the tense Zhangye City and Zhaowu, and when the time comes, Han Sui will really benefit from the fisherman.

Moreover, if Han Sui really has the intention of rebellion, it will definitely be dangerous to change the defense against Xu Rong, and what is even more dangerous is Wuwei in the south, without Xu Rong's block, Han Sui will be able to go straight to Wuwei to threaten Yongzhou.

Han Sui and Zhang couldn't get along, so they had to go back to their respective homes and continue to stalemate in this terrifying atmosphere.

The next day, Ma Teng suddenly sent an envoy to invite Zhang Ji to the military camp outside the city to talk, wanting to make further appeals and exchange opinions on the will of the imperial court, but Zhang Ji did not know whether to go or not, in fact, he did not dare to go, because Ma Teng had already evacuated the military camp to ten miles away, and it was really hard to say what would happen during this journey.

Zhang Ji found an excuse and couldn't get rid of it, and that night, Zhang Ji's residence was thrown into oil and torches, but fortunately no damage was caused, but Zhang Ji was already scared.

Ma Teng didn't know where to get the news, and the next day he led the army under the city and asked Han Sui to hand over Zhang Ji to his own protection, Han Sui naturally refused, and the two sides exchanged words on the city wall, accusing each other of being ill-intentioned, in Zhang Ji's opinion, this meaningless war of words was like a play.

Subsequently, Xu Rong's troops found that there seemed to be signs of a large number of cavalry activities around the Xianmei Fortress in Wuwei County, and Xu Rong was worried about the safety of the logistics channel, so he had to temporarily stop sending supplies to Han Sui, and readjust the military subordinates, and the promise to transfer the army out of the city also became empty words.

And the new city appointed by Han Sui was a candidate, but none of them dared to take office, Xu Rong had no choice but to appoint some people to temporarily undertake daily government affairs and maintain the operation of these cities, but in this way, the rumor that Xu Rong occupied Zhangye County became a fact.

Zhangye County's affairs have become extremely strange, the reason is that there is actually no trust between Han Sui and the Chang'an court, the two sides are just using each other, Xu Shu accurately grasped this loophole, so that the original two sides were hidden under the table of careful thinking are on the table, in this way, Han Sui has no reason to cooperate with the Chang'an court anyway, unless, Han Sui is willing to really accept the decree of the Chang'an court and give up the privilege of being a warlord, just this choice, It's definitely not something that Han Sui can accept now.

So, after one of Xu Rong's logistics troops was raided by a large number of unidentified cavalry, Han Sui and Xu Rong's hypocrisy was finally broken!

"Han Wenyue, you really didn't do this?"

"Master Zhang, how could this be my doing? It must have been done by Ma Teng and Zhang Liao, who wanted to blame me 1

"But you came to urge the grain and grass on the front foot, and the grain team of General Xu Rong on the back foot was robbed, this"

"Lord Zhang, even if I am short of food, it is impossible to rob General Xu Rong's grain and grass, right?"

"Then where does your food and grass come from? Did you pick it up halfway!? ”

"This is really what Liang Xing picked up outside Wulan City, if you don't believe it, the lower officials can order the grain and grass to be sent back to General Xu Rong."

"Yes, if it weren't for the official getting the news, would you still send the grain and grass back?"

"This, of course it will1

"Okay, in order to confirm that Han Wen has no objections to you, please come with me to Shandan and explain the situation to General Xu Rong, okay?"

"Don't deceive people too much1

"What, could it be that Lord Han wants to rebel?"

"Xiaguan"

"Zhang Ji, don't go too far, don't forget, you are still on our territory now.1 Yan Xing on the side has long been unable to see it, this Zhang is really too deceitful, seeing that his father-in-law was forced to retreat, Yan Xing finally broke out!

This shout frightened Zhang Jiyi, and then he figured out his situation, and suddenly stopped making a sound, and the matter was over.

That night, Zhang Ji changed his outfit and pretended to be his subordinate, wanting to sneak out of the city in the name of purchasing, but when he came back, he had already turned into a corpse and was sent back to the post house.

Han Sui was horrified when he got the news, and immediately blocked the news, and that night, Han Sui led the army out of Zhangye City. To be continued...
