Two days later, Ma Teng took the lead in leading the army to arrive and joined Cao Zhang's and Duan Xuan's soldiers and horses.

A few days later, another large army arrived, and it was Han Sui who led his subordinates with 20,000 soldiers and horses.

After Han Sui received Ma Teng's handwritten letter, he knew that he had accepted Zhao'an, and saw clearly the stakes mentioned in the letter, and felt that Ma Teng's words were very reasonable, and he was willing to accept Zhao'an and make the history of Liangzhou Thorn.

He knew that the military situation on Cao Zhang's side was urgent, and he didn't dare to delay in the slightest, so after receiving the holy decree, he immediately mobilized his troops and horses, and quickly rushed to Chang'an.

Cao Zhang heard that Han Sui had arrived, and hurriedly beckoned Ma Teng to greet him outside the camp in person.

After a while, Han Sui came with several personal soldiers, he saw Cao Zhang and Ma Teng from a distance, hurriedly turned over and dismounted, stepped forward quickly, and saluted Cao Zhang: "Meet Cao Gongzi!" ”

Cao Zhang hurriedly stretched out his hand to help: "Han Envoy Jun must not be polite!" ”

Ma Teng stepped forward and greeted Han Sui with a chuckle: "Wenyue (Han Sui's character), I haven't seen you for a few years, you look very good." ”

"Brother Lao is worried. The younger brother was provoked by adulterers and became an enemy of his brother. Fortunately, my brother did not give up, and he still treated each other with sincerity, and the younger brother was ashamed and embarrassed, so I came to apologize to my brother! Han Sui hurriedly turned around and respectfully saluted Ma Teng.

Ma Teng smiled and saw him holding on: "Okay, you and my brother, let him go to the misunderstanding in the past, in the future, you and I will work together to help Cao Gongzi eliminate Li Dao, and then keep Yongliang stable." ”

"Follow my brother's teachings! The younger brother was afraid of delaying Cao Gongzi's major events, so he traveled day and night and brought 20,000 horses to come. Han Sui responded to Ma Teng's words.

"Han Envoy Jun has worked hard, please go and sit down in the big tent." Cao Zhang beckoned Han Sui to walk into the camp.

At this time, he saw a tall and mighty young general beside Han Sui, and felt that he was extraordinary, so he asked curiously, "Who is this?" ”

"This is a general under my command, whose surname is Yan Ming. Yanming, come and meet Cao Gongzi! Han Sui introduced Cao Zhang, and then hurriedly beckoned Yan Xing to step forward.

Yan Xing took a step forward: "Young general Yan Xing meets Cao Gongzi!" ”

Yan Xing! It turned out to be him!

Cao Zhang looked him up and down, revealing a sudden expression.

According to the records of the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms", this Yan Xing was originally a subordinate of Han Sui, and later returned to Cao Cao, and played a vital role in Cao Cao's quelling of Ma Chao and Han Sui's rebellion.

And he can make Cao Zhang pay great attention to it, that is, he once had a brilliant record.

When Ma Teng and Han Sui fought, this Yan Xing once fought with Ma Chao with all his heart, when his spear was broken, he continued to fight with a broken spear, and almost killed Ma Chao, which shows that his martial arts are quite good, and he is also a rare fierce general.

"It turned out to be General Yanming, fortunately!" Cao Zhang responded to Yan Xing enthusiastically, but he was already thinking about how to find a way to recruit Yan Xing under his command in the future.

Cao Zhang led everyone into the big tent of the Chinese army and sat down in the position of guest and host.

As soon as Han Sui sat down, he couldn't wait to ask Cao Zhang about the battle situation: "Dare to ask Cao Gongzi, how is the battle situation in Chang'an now?" ”

"Li Wei held on behind closed doors and couldn't hold out, General Duan once led the crowd to attack the city, but he didn't succeed. Originally, I was also planning to wait for the two envoys and other Kansai princes to arrive, and discuss a strategy to defeat the enemy together. Cao Zhang truthfully informed Han Sui of the current situation.

Han Sui took the initiative to say: "Childe, the siege of the city was not able to take place before, which should be caused by the lack of troops of General Duan and Gongzi. Now Brother Ma and I have arrived with 20,000 soldiers and horses, and our army has far surpassed Li Dao's strength. In my opinion, there is no need to wait for Zhang Heng and Liang Xing to arrive, tomorrow we can storm Chang'an and fight quickly! ”

When Ma Teng heard Han Sui's request to fight, he immediately agreed: "Yes, Childe!" Now our army is strong and its morale is booming, and it is just the right time to break through Chang'an! ”

Cao Zhang saw that the two of them were full of fighting spirit, and there were only five days left before the 100-day appointment, so he really couldn't afford to delay, so he nodded and agreed to the two's invitation to fight.

"Okay, early tomorrow morning, please ask Brother Meng Qi under the command of Ma Yuanjun to lead 10,000 troops to attack the east gate of Chang'an, and General Yanming under the command of Han Yuanjun to lead 10,000 troops to attack the west gate of Chang'an; General Duan led his headquarters to attack the south gate of Chang'an, and Gongming led 10,000 troops to attack the north gate of Chang'an. Cao Zhang quickly made a deployment and made a siege posture.

Cao Zhang got up and raised his arms and said: "This time, we will fight on all sides to break through Chang'an and defeat Li Dao!" ”

Everyone got up together and responded: "Break through Chang'an and defeat Li Dao!" ”

……

The next morning, the drums of war sounded on all sides of Chang'an at the same time, and according to Cao Zhang's instructions, the four armies were dispatched together to prepare for a general attack on Chang'an City.

Li Dao already knew the news of the arrival of Ma Teng and Han Sui's army, and he also realized that Cao Zhang's army would soon launch a full-scale siege, and he also made careful arrangements.

Li Wei personally led 5,000 soldiers and horses to garrison the east gate, and Li Huan led 5,000 soldiers to guard the west gate; Li Ying led 5,000 soldiers to guard the south gate, and the north gate was handed over to Li Wei's nephew Hu Feng.

At this time, they had already led their troops to climb the city tower in all directions, with solemn expressions on their faces, and their hands were holding the weapons in their hands, ready to start a mortal battle with Cao Zhangjun under the city.

The troops led by Ma Chao, Yan Xing, Duan Xuan, and Xu Huang lined up under the city like a surging river, ready to attack. The armor on their bodies shone with cold light, and the weapons in their hands flashed with murderous aura.

The sound of war drums shook the sky, and with the sound of war drums, the generals of the unified army outside the four gates issued the order to attack together.

The two sides did not have any temptation, and directly entered the process of hand-to-hand combat.

The killing sound suddenly erupted on the battlefield, and the ranged troops at the head of the city took the lead in attacking.

A dense rain of arrows fell from the sky, but the attacking troops under the city were not afraid at all, holding shields for protection, and continued to rush frantically in the direction of the city walls.

The sword glittered in the sun, and the entire battlefield turned into a murderous sea of blood.

The two sides engaged in a fierce battle, and the sound of swords and slashes echoed in the heavens and the earth, and the earth trembled.

The sounds of shouting and killing, shouting signs, and the neighing of galloping horses were intertwined.

Blood was sprinkled all over the city walls and the battlefield, and the soldiers on the battlefield all had blood stains on their faces, and everyone was interpreting loyalty and courage with their own flesh and soul.

The soldiers fought bravely to kill the enemy, swords and swords intertwined in the air, and the blood of life stained the walls and the battlefield red.

Li Dao waved the spear in his hand, kept shuttling on the city wall, and kept harvesting the lives of the soldiers who tried to rush up the city wall!

Ma Chao looked at Li Dao on the city tower, and he also roared angrily, constantly urging his subordinate soldiers to continue the onslaught, and the anger of the battle burned in his eyes.

Li Huan was athletic, he wielded the ring-headed knife, and kept cruising around the city, killing one enemy after another. His face was covered with sweat, but there was a determined light in his eyes.

Yan Xing commanded his subordinates to keep rushing up the ladder and frantically rushing towards the city.

Li Ying held the key point of the fortress with his sword, and his swordsmanship was as smooth as flowing water, making the enemy fearful, and every soldier who tried to pass by him could not escape his deadly sword.

Duan Xuan stood under the city wall, holding a hard bow, shooting with his head up, the arrows were not missing, and one arrow after another pierced the sky like meteors, and each arrow harvested the lives of the Xiliang defenders at the head of the city.

Hu Feng held a bow and crossbow, and he also constantly shot the soldiers who rushed to the city.

Xu Huang led the warriors he personally trained, controlled the rushing car, and constantly slammed the walls and gates of Chang'an, trying to open a gap.

The generals on both sides took the lead, and the battle as if they were at home also inspired the soldiers under their command to rush to the death.

The flesh and blood of the warriors on the city wall are blended with the city stones, and life and death dance with dignity.

The earth trembled, the drums of war continued to beat, the heroic souls burned, and the casualties on the battlefield were innumerable.

As time went on, the fighting intensified.

The soldiers on both sides were valiant, and although they suffered heavy casualties, they had no intention of retreating.

Blood and dust fill the battlefield, and the red and white of the land are intertwined, forming a distorted and beautiful picture.

It was slowly darkening, and the battle continued on the walls for several hours, and although there were heavy casualties, there was no victory.

Both sides are exhausted, and there is not much strength left to continue fighting. They all realized that this was no longer a contest of individual bravery and strength, but a contest of team strength and faith.

Cao Zhang, Xu Shu, Xiahou Ba, Ma Teng, Han Sui and others have also been besieging the city and watching the battle, and they were all very surprised to see that the battle situation was so anxious.

"Childe, it seems that it is impossible to break through Chang'an today, withdraw the troops, after dark, it will be more unfavorable to our army, and there will be greater casualties!" Xu Shu proposed to Cao Zhang.

Cao Zhang looked at Ma Teng, Han Sui and the others, although the two didn't say anything, they also saw that such a huge consumption also made their faces very ugly.

After all, they are helping the war, and if the elite battles accumulated over the years are exhausted, they must be extremely uncomfortable in their hearts.

"The order is down, and the whole army retreats!" Cao Zhang quickly gave the order to withdraw the troops.

The gongs of the withdrawal of the troops sounded at the four gates of Chang'an, and although Ma Chao, Yan Xing and others were unwilling, they also understood that there was no point in continuing to insist, and they could only lead their subordinates to retreat slowly.

The Xiliang army at the head of the city watched the Cao army retreat, and their tense spirits also relaxed, they either fell to the ground, or leaned against the wall, or clenched their weapons, today's battle made them bear the double huge pressure of body and spirit!

The smoke and smell of blood filled all corners of the battlefield, and a vicious battle ended like this......
