After Han Sui sneered, he changed his mind and said:

"In fact, no matter whether the Ma family and son escape or surrender, it will have little impact on the overall situation. Ma Teng's escape from the north will not affect the rear of Jincheng; if he surrenders, Yan Xing dares not rely too much on the newly surrendered people such as the Ma family and son."

"So, after all, we will fight against Hedong soldiers in this battle. The winners are all based on Guanzhong and include the three auxiliary assistants. As for the losers, they can only surrender or escape like Ma Teng."

Hearing this, Han Chang and Li Pian immediately understood and quickly said loudly:

"Sir, the wife, you can see that this battle will surely defeat the weak enemy and take all of them to Guanzhong!"

"Haha!" Han Sui laughed and stroked his long beard, then a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Isn't there anyone here in the Yan family this time? Then I'll send the children of the Yan family to the enemy camp as envoys to see who Yan Xing is!"

"What name does that woman plan to use?"

When Li Pian heard Han Sui's plan to send an envoy to the enemy camp, he also gathered his mind and asked carefully.

In the world, Liangzhou was the first to be chaotic, and this kind of turmoil was fierce and continuous. Not many people from the coalition army would be afraid of the Han Dynasty. However, in order to become famous and win people's hearts, Han Sui, a senior executive of the coalition army, would still swear to the guise of "slaying eunuchs", "sustaining the king" and "striking Li Jue".

However, the eunuchs have long been destroyed, and the court has moved east to Guandong. Li Jue was attacked and killed by the Ma family father and son not long ago. The guise of righteousness that Han Sui sent troops disappeared suddenly. When facing Yan Xing, who was in charge of the imperial edict and governed the three prefectures of Yan Xing, Liang and Yong, Li Pian could not think of any "righteousness" in his own troops.

Han Sui's sharp eyes suddenly saw through Li Pian's thoughts, and he smiled coldly:

"Just say that Sui Wei was the general of Anqiang. The court entrusted the important task of guarding the western border and appeaseing the Qiang Di. He was deeply grateful to the heavens, and he could only repay his old body. This autumn, he entered Guanzhong. He was originally to fight against the rebel Li Jue. Since Li Jue has been destroyed, I will lead the army of 100,000 Han Hu to return to Liangdi!"

"It was only after the great chaos in Guanzhong, the refugees scattered and fled to the Tao. I didn't have the desire to pity the human feelings. Therefore, I specially sent troops to escort the refugees back home, and asked for titles to many Qiang and Di masters to show the wisdom of the court's saints!"

Han Sui said this easily, but when Han Chang heard Li Pian and Han Chang's ears, he had to admit that the father in front of him was Jiang Gui's nature.

Li Jue was dead and marched Wuming. In terms of righteousness, Han Sui's Anqiang General was not as good as Yan Xing's official position as the title of General of the Cavalry in the Three Prefectures. However, this "Great Righteousness" that was separated from things and always influenced people's minds was absent. Han Sui, who was old and stronger, could easily resolve it with this hand.

It is the responsibility of the Anqiang General to protect the people of the people and appease the Qiang Di. Han Sui's so-called "sending troops to protect the people" and "requesting a title for Hu" is justified.

This time, before Li Pian was waiting for Li Pian, Han Chang praised Han Sui's wisdom. Han Sui had already reached out to stop the two of them from speaking in advance. He looked outside the city, just like looking at Chang'an City that he had visited many years ago, and said with a leisurely smile:

"As for whether to advance or retreat, let's take a look!"

···

Outside Chang'an City, the west of the city is camp.

Dong Zhuo destroyed a city of Luoyang, the eastern capital, while Li Jue and others destroyed a city of Chang'an, the western capital.

Although Li Jue, Dong Cheng, Ma Teng and others did not burn Chang'an City like Dong Zhuo moved the capital to burn the city, after the army seized the city and abandoned the city and the soldiers indulged in plunder, the former glorious Chang'an City of Xijing had long been hollowed out.

When the imperial court had just moved west to Chang'an, the grand occasion of "cars hitting the wheels, people rub shoulders" and "sweating into the shade, sweating into the rain" was no longer visible, leaving only the abandoned ponds, trees, green wheat, and a few piles of jackdaws.

Looking at the dilapidated and gray palace residence, the empty streets and alleys, and the empty lilu, all I heard in my ears was the sad horns of Duan Wei's soldiers who stayed in the city. However, Yan Xing and his chariots had no time to feel sad. After entering the city, they hurriedly walked out along the street and rushed to the camp west of the city.

The royal garden in the west of the city is now deserted and is depressed. The lake water in Kunming Pool is turbid and cold, and Duan Wei's army is stationed here.

When the soldiers entered the territory, they set fire to wild grass growing wildly, hunted many jackals and dogs cruising around, drove out refugees hiding in the garden, and then began to build camps on this land.

When Yan Xing and others arrived, the original chaos had disappeared here, and it had become a large army camp with clear and orderly order.

But in the chilly evening breeze, there is still a faint smell of wood ash.

Duan Wei went out to greet the camp in person, and everyone was unobstructed. After getting off the horse at the gate, he walked all the way and entered the tent one after another.

When he entered the tent, Yan Xing did not deliberately maintain his high elegance. He took off his trouser and shook his neck, which was sore and numb, while climbing to the tent to watch the map, he smiled and said to Duan Wei:

"Dun Duan fought happily in this battle. He defeated Ma Teng's army and recovered Chang'an City in one fell swoop. He became famous. I believe that soon, the scholars, people, women and children in Guandong will know Duan's reputation and the court will have new rewards."

Duan Wei, who was in military uniform, smiled faintly at Yan Xing's words. He also knew about the incident in Luoyang City, the Yuan and Cao families sent troops to the east, and the emperor moved east to Xudu. This was naturally a big blow to some civil and military officials under Yan Xing's command, but on Yan Xing's face, he could not see any trace of joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.

After almost observing, Duan Wei quickly spoke up and took the initiative to come to the map to explain the current situation in Guanzhong to Yan Xing.

"General, please see, Han Sui's army has controlled the cities between Wuyu, and has continuously sent troops to Meiyang, Wugong and Fufeng County, most of the Fufeng County has fallen into the hands of Han Sui's army."

"Fortunately, after our army recovered Chang'an City in one fell swoop, Zhang Liao, and his troops rushed to Huaili City, strengthened the city defense, built camps, and built a barrier to the west of Chang'an City. After the general surrendered Ma Teng, Fengyi County and Jingzhao County had also been pacified. In addition to Liang Xing between Shangluo, Wang Zhong from Wuguan, the two small groups of people in Guanzhong were under the control of the general."

"Therefore, our army arrived first and gained geographical advantages. Later, Han Sui was in a sharp position. The battle of Huaili was actually the last battle in Guanzhong. Every gain and loss in Huaili City will be related to the future trend of the situation in Guanzhong."

The veteran Duan Wei pointed to the mountains, rivers and cities in Guanzhong on the map, and told the situation of the two armies one by one. Yan Xing listened carefully, occasionally nodded, and waited patiently until Duan Wei finished speaking before he could tell his own problem.

"What is the military power of Han Sui's army?"

When Duan Wei heard Yan Xing ask about Han Suijun, he looked around in the tent. Jia Xu, Xun You, Zhao Hong, Pei Wan and others in the tent all performed their duties and were busy sorting out and summarizing the military Chinese books and pictures and volumes brought in the tent.

Only the two of them stood in front of the map and were discussing the current military affairs. Yang Feng, as his deputy general, did not make a sound. Duan Wei quickly came to his senses and replied:

"According to Zhang Zhonglang's future reports, the Han Sui army discovered by the two cities of Meiyang alone had no less than 20,000. If we add the subsequent troops from Weiyu, there are probably 40,000 to 50,000. Han Sui's command has many Qiang and Hu tribes, with high autumn horses and strong spirits. General Zhang Zhonglang suggested that he should not attack lightly, and should station heavy troops in Huaili City to resist the invasion of the Liangdi army."

After hearing Duan Wei's words, Yan Xing smiled. Although Duan Wei said it was Zhang Liao's suggestion, Yan Xing still heard Duan Wei's meaning from it. He looked at Yang Feng who had not spoken, and smiled and turned to Duan Wei and asked:

"What about Duan Gong's opinion?"

Duan Wei also looked at Yang Feng, then continued to ponder:

"The military strategy says: avoid his sharpness and attack his lazy return. In the Guanzhong area, our army has two of the three points, but after the soldiers fought for a long time, the people and horses were exhausted. Han Sui took the power of the queen to control people, and the Qiang and Hu under his command were strong and fierce. He thought that he still needed to strengthen the walls and clear the fields, and tired the enemy was the best, and the field was the best!"

Duan Wei's words are a mature saying, and "Strengthen the walls and clear the fields, tired the enemy and attack lazy" is also a common strategy for the Central Plains dynasty to deal with nomadic tribes to defend instead of attack.

According to Duan Wei’s specific tactics to the battle between Guanzhong, as long as the confrontation between the Hedong army and Han Sui army is delayed until the severe winter, the Hedong side will win this battle!

Even if he could not defeat Han Sui's army, Yan Xing's side was invincible from beginning to end. He could completely retreat Han Sui and then slowly use troops to recover the cities west of Fufeng County.

But Yan Xing looked calm on the surface, but he seemed to not agree with Duan Wei's mature words in his heart. He thought about it, then turned to Yang Feng with a smile and asked:

"Boyang, what do you think?"

Among the Western Expedition Army, Yang Feng was the deputy general of Duan Wei. His identity was to balance the existence of the forces in the army. Because before going to the expedition, although Yang Feng had some complaints about Duan Wei, he never made any mistakes and still took the opinions of the chief general Duan Wei as the basis.

But now Yan Xing has arrived in the army, Yang Feng realized that he no longer needed to endure each other as a public servant. After he thought about it, he finally spoke decisively:

"General, Feng thought that this battle was the last reliance to determine Guanzhong. If you advance or retreat, you must do your best to decide the outcome. Previously, Xinfeng and Ma Teng's army could not stand for a long time, resulting in the army being stranded in Guanxi. This was why Guandong Yuan and Cao families took advantage of the opportunity to attack. If they confront each other again, it seems to be beneficial to retreat to the enemy, but they are afraid it will be unfavorable to the overall situation!"

When Duan Wei advocated confrontation and dragging down Ma Teng's army, Yang Feng and others, who were the main war faction in the army, complained, believing that Duan Wei only cares about his own stability and wins his reputation, and that he has consumed money and food that Hedong has worked hard to accumulate, which is completely discarding the overall situation!
