Liu Wei sat down and said what Xun Yu and Jia Xu were most concerned about at the moment, "The Zhenfu Division sent an urgent report from Chang'an, the Chang'an army was raided by the rebels yesterday, and Han Sui personally led it, losing more than 7,000 soldiers and horses. ”

"Huangfu Song's spirit was frustrated, and the hearts of the upper and lower armies of the Chang'an Army were turbulent."

The loss of 7,000 soldiers and horses was already a great defeat.

In the first battle, the loss of troops will be so bad that it will be very unfavorable to the morale of the army.

"Such casualties are indeed heavy, but the Imperial Captain has been on the battlefield for a long time, how can he be mentally frustrated because of this battle?" Jia Xu was a little puzzled, he felt that the emperor was more worried about this matter.

The morale of the army has been frustrated, and there is still a way to save it.

But the coach's spirit was frustrated, and his courage was no longer there, but there was no way to save it, so he could only change the general.

A commander who has been beaten and continues to stay on the battlefield, he will only bring more soldiers to his death.

Although Jia Xu didn't know much about Huangfu Song, he felt that Huangfu Song should not make such a simple mistake.

Liu Wei said: "Huangfu Song has always disagreed with this war, he believes that the imperial court is in a difficult situation, and he should maintain the hard-won peace in Liangzhou, and temporarily make peace with the rebels in Liangzhou. ”

But Han then put me on the hook with a plan of fake death, and this mistake in just two days made this battle ready to go, and it had to be sent. Even if the troops are withdrawn, they should not be withdrawn in such a gray way. ”

"But Huangfu Song preferred to withdraw his troops in this way, and gave me several folds. In addition, his son and nephew are uncertain about their life and death in Jincheng at the moment, probably because they are too worried and out of proportion. ”

Xun Yu shook his head and sighed lightly: "The war has started, and the Imperial Captain still thinks like this, it is indeed a little undesirable." ”

"Ma Teng has been persuaded by Huangfu Jianshou to completely fall to the imperial court, and he is trapped in the elm at the moment. If the imperial court did not arrive as scheduled, but chose to withdraw at this time, the imperial court would not only lose a solid ally, but also have one more enemy. ”

"Han Sui won this battle, and his confidence will inevitably swell, and Sanfu will have no peace after that. What's worse is that it is very likely that he will join Liu Yan in the south and Yuan Shao in the east, and send troops on three sides, and the court will fall into a trapped. ”

The main line is actually quite clear.

At this point, no matter what the purpose, this battle must be fought by the imperial court.

And win fast!

If we abandon the march now because of the shortage of food and grass, the situation will be even worse.

Han Sui, Liu Yan, and Yuan Shao sent troops, coupled with the shortage of grain and grass, the imperial court may have to be prepared to give up Yanzhou.

Jia Xu crossed the armrest of his wheelchair and asked, "Dare to ask Your Majesty how to deal with the Chang'an Army?" ”

"It depends on what Huangfu Song is going to do next." Liu Wei said.

Jia Xu was a little surprised, "Your Majesty is not ready to withdraw the Imperial Captain to Kyoto?" ”

"No, he's a veteran of the battlefield, and I'm not worried that he won't be able to get out of the horns after such a big defeat. But the main force of this expedition to the west will no longer be the Chang'an army, leaving him to contain and confuse the enemy in the front, and you and Xun You will be able to do things. Liu Wei said.

Huangfu Song is a person who guards the truth and loves to drill the horns, which Liu Wei has always known.

But he didn't expect this uncle to come to this point.

It's like his mother's late depression, and it's a little scary.

The famous three generals of the late Han Dynasty, after this incident, Liu Wei felt that they should also be allowed to rest.

"Obey the order!" Jia Xu responded.

The emperor's arrangement is deeply in line with his wishes.

Even if the emperor was ready to remove Huangfu Song, he would advise him to stay.

Only if Huangfu Song stays on the battlefield in Liangzhou, Han Sui's eyes will be firmly fixed on him, and if he neglects to take precautions against other places, he will have the opportunity to make a move in the shadows.

……

After Jia Xu left the palace, he hurried back home and left with the army.

When this cavalry, which only had 3,000 men, went out on the expedition, it was completely silent.

Almost no one noticed that there was such a janissary in Luoyang.

The next day, at dusk, Jia Xu rode into Chang'an City with only fifty horsemen.

This day's and night's rapid march without changing horses and men almost wiped out his two legs, which had just grown.

Although he was a disabled person who enjoyed special treatment, he was dragged by Zhu Hong.

But in fact, that state tortured him even more.

After Jia Xu entered the city, he didn't go to the government office, and no one told him, so he directly ordered someone to charter a reverse trip.

Then he scattered all the fifty horsemen he had brought.

In order to obtain military information more conveniently, he used these fifty horsemen as a mobile post station.

Although the war has only just begun, it has changed its situation.

……

Although Han Sui was seriously injured and his left arm was almost completely useless, he was very excited.

He beheaded more than 7,000 soldiers of Huangfu Song, which was the biggest victory he had won over with Huangfu Song for so long.

After the successful night attack that night, Han Sui did not return to Qinting, but went straight back to Longxian, and forcibly recruited the people in the city to go to the city overnight to defend it.

The victory in this battle made him change his mind.

He didn't go back to Jincheng.

He wants to occupy Hanyang, knock Huangfu Song hard, and prepare to march to the right to support the wind.

This gorgeous victory made Han Sui see a strong hope.

It is not impossible to destroy the emperor.

More than 7,000 were killed in battle, and countless were seriously injured, and Huangfu Song's current capable soldiers are not more than 10,000.

And he has an elite army of 70,000, and the soldiers who can pick up a knife are casually 100,000.

Even if it is to pile it with human life, it can kill Huangfu Song in Hanyang.

I still want to attack Liangzhou, a fool's dream!

In addition to reorganizing the army to defend Longxian, Han Sui sent a number of scouts to recruit the people and horses of the various departments that had gathered in Jincheng to the south to prepare for the attack on Huangfu Song and the attack on Chang'an.

……

Yuzhong.

Ma Teng has fought more than a dozen battles in the past few days.

The people under his command are sleepy and lacking horses, and the grain and grass they brought are almost eaten.

"My lord, we can't fight like this anymore, Han Sui gathered all the troops, and the strength is far superior to ours, with only more than 20,000 of us, we can't pry open the gate of Jincheng." Ma Chao looked at Ma Teng, who was leaning against a tree with a crooked neck, and said.

Their current location is Qiyun Mountain in Yuzhong.

The mountains here are high and dense, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is the temporary place of the Ma Teng Army.

"There is no news from the imperial army yet?" Ma Teng, who had just experienced a big battle, was a little tired and panted when he spoke.

Ma Chao shook his head, "I always feel that we seem to be set up by the imperial court, and they ...... Probably won't come. ”

“我们的人是亲眼看着皇甫坚寿进的金城，这不会有错。” "Unless something else happens." ”

"But my lord, it stands to reason that Han Sui is dead, and Liang Xing and the others should set themselves up as kings and find their own heads. But in recent battles, their troops and horses have come out together to attack our army in turn, and there is no sign of rupture in sight. Ma Chao said.

Ma Teng, who was a little temperless by the wheel war, couldn't help but be a little shaken in his thoughts when he heard his son say this.

"We ...... Wait a little longer and save enough for seven days' rations. If, after seven days, the imperial army still hasn't arrived, we'll withdraw! Ma Teng said.

"The child obeys!" Ma Chao shouted.

As soon as his words fell, he suddenly heard the sound of golden drums outside the mountain, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

"These things, endlessly!" Ma Chao jumped up with a hideous face, "Adults take a break, this battle, children go!" ”

"Bring Ma Tie!" Ma Teng also stood up and shouted, "The soldiers are a little tired, they can follow the rules, and there is no need to attack rashly." ”

"The child knows!" Ma Chao picked up his spear and shouted to greet the soldiers.

He took Ma Tie and ordered two thousand cavalry out of the mountain pass.

Ma Teng, who was not at ease, also brought someone to follow.

Qiyun Mountain is complicated, out of the mountain pass, but in fact there is no mountain.

Just from this position, you can clearly see the view below the mountain to the north.

The endless river valley plains, the rushing river in the distance, and the magnificent city of Jincheng.

"It's Ju Katsu's part!" Ma Tie pointed to the banner of the lower part of the mountain and said.

"This dog thing, he even came to attack us, a dog fighting human power." Ma Chao scolded.

Among the thirty-six forces, Ju Sheng can only be ranked last.

In the past, when I saw Ma Teng, I had to bow my waist and speak, but today I even dared to raise troops at the foot of the mountain to scold.

"Please watch the children kill the enemy!" Ma Chao turned over and said to Ma Teng.

Ma Teng held his eyes, stared at the banks of the river, and suddenly shouted, "Wait." ”

"Do you see if there is a troop on the south bank as well?"

When Ma Chao heard this, he looked in the direction that Ma Teng was pointing, "There seems to be soldiers and horses moving, but the trees are covered, and it is not very real." ”

"Wait a little longer, in case the enemy ambushes the soldiers." Ma Teng said cautiously.

"Whoa!"

The father and son held down the soldiers and horses and looked condescendingly.

In a short time, the great army that rushed along the south bank of the river finally showed their true face.

It was a black torrent.

The Red Flame Tiger Banner in front of it hunted and hunted in the wind, like a fire phoenix soaring in the sky.

"Black armor, red flag, which song is this? The momentum is terrifying. ”

Ma Tie looked at which cavalry was galloping like sharp arrows, and unconsciously held down the big axe in his hand.

"It's the Imperial Army!" Ma Teng muttered, looking excited.

"It's indeed the imperial army, and Han Sui can't afford to use all the black armor." Ma Chao also said.

Ma Tie's eyes were envious, and he sighed, "This is the real elite soldier, the tiger flag opens the way, and the momentum is like a tiger!" ”

"It should be the elite of the imperial army." Ma Teng guessed.

At this time, Yamashita Ju Sheng also noticed the soldiers coming from the rear.

He was a little confused.

"I haven't heard of sending reinforcements again, send someone to see what's going on?" He shouted to the left and right.

"Whoa!"

"Ben General Zhang Ji, the deceased will leave a name!"

Suddenly, a thunderous sound came from the torrent of black armor, and the sound shook all over the world.

此时，黑甲洪流已经极限接近了鞠胜部部曲的军阵。

Like a black blade cutting tofu, this black torrent cut through the military formation very silkily.

In an instant, Ju Sheng's subordinates were like rolled flesh and skin, and they scattered messily to both sides.

You may not feel anything in it, but you can see it very realistically from a high level.

"This ...... So fast?! Ma Tie was stunned for a moment, "I haven't fought yet, how does this feel like it's going to end." ”

"Defeated in one blow, it is undoubtedly the elite cavalry of the imperial court." Ma Chao looked at such a silky fight, and he didn't feel a little excited.

"It's too fast." Ma Tie said in disbelief, "Looking at the corpses all over the ground behind them, it's really like plowing the ground." ”
