When Yang Qiu heard this, he lowered his head slightly, sighed and said, "Let's defend the city first. If Ma Teng and Han Sui don't rescue the troops, then in one month, we will be defeated without fighting."

If Yang Qiu was confident, he could lead seven or eight thousand elite troops in the city to go out to fight Xu Huang and Xu Shu. If he wins, the difficulties of stability will naturally be solved.

But Yang Qiu had no confidence.

Seeing Yang Qiu's order, the generals were slightly stunned and then felt discouraged, but they had no better way, so they could only respond with a resentment.

Only Zhang Xiu could confront Ma Teng and Han Sui in Jieting for one month, and Anding County would be defeated without a fight.

.........

Jieting.

Although the two armies confronted Jieting, they all entered the warehouse with swords and guns, put them on Mount Ma Nan, and heard from each other, but they never interacted with each other.

In Zhang Xiu's military camp, Zhang Xiu wore armor and took Dian Wei and dozens of personal soldiers to inspect the camp. Although it was believed that Yan Xing would not attack, Zhang Xiu did not give up his vigilance.

A arrogant soldier will be defeated, how can you not be afraid?

Zhang Xiu came to Wu Yi's camp.

"Ming Gong." has grown much stronger, wearing iron armor, and no longer seen young Wu Yi, led more than a dozen personal soldiers to welcome Zhang Xiu.

"No gifts." Zhang Xiu smiled a little, and then he patroled the camp with Wu Yi. He was quite satisfied.

Although Wu Yi was young, he was also gifted. The soldiers were extremely energetic and extremely vigilant.

Looking at Wu Yi, Zhang Xiu couldn't help but sigh.

"Why did Gong Ming sigh? But what's wrong with me?" Wu Yi couldn't help feeling a little uneasy when he saw Zhang Xiu sighing.

Zhang Xiu woke up and smiled and said, "What's wrong with Sima Wu (Wu Yi)? Not only is there nothing wrong with it, but it's very good. But because of this, I sighed that Yan Xing, Ma Chao has 60,000 or 70,000 elite soldiers, but he doesn't come to attack us."

Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu smiled and looked around and said, "If they dare to come, they will be killed."

"Hahaha."

The personal soldiers cooperated very well and laughed loudly, and Dian Wei also smiled a little. Wu Yi was even more open-minded and breathed out.

He was really afraid that he had done something wrong.

Not long after, Zhang Xiu inspected the camp and returned to the central army's tent. He asked his personal soldiers to untie him, and then sat down seriously and watched the map.

He sighed just now because Zhuge Liang abandoned Wu Yi and Wei Yan without using it, and asked Ma Su to guard Jieting.

What a pity, what a pity.

As the saying goes, a wise man will make a mistake in a thousand worries. Zhuge Liang only saw Ma Su's talent, but did not see Ma Su's conceit.

Zhang Xiu heard a series of footsteps and raised his head to see Dian Wei walking in with a roll of white cloth in his hand. Dian Wei saluted and said, "Ming Gong, it is General Xu's letter."

Zhang Xiu's face was solemn when he heard this, and reached out to take the letter and opened it to watch it. A smile appeared on his face. After pondering for a while, Zhang Xiu looked up and said to Dian Wei, "Summon Li Li."

"promise."

Dian Wei Yingnuo said, turned around and went down.

Not long after, the adviser Li Li once again rode out of the camp alone and headed to the Liangzhou camp. After receiving the news, Yan Xing and Ma Chao, Yang Fu, Ma Dai and others met Li Li in their camp.

Li Li, who had entered the palace for the second time, was extremely calm, saluted Yan Xing and others, and was invited to sit down.

"I said it very clearly last time. Why should I come again sir?" Yan Xing sat upright and looked up at Li Li, not angry, just asked.

Li Li smiled slightly and bowed and said, "This time I came not to persuade the general to surrender to the court. But to come on order."

Speaking of this, Li Li took out a roll of white cloth from the wide sleeve on the right and raised it. The smart personal soldiers in the tent immediately stepped forward and picked up the roll of white cloth and handed it to Yan Xing.

Everyone was quite confused and didn't know what Li Li was doing. Yan Xing reached out to take the white cloth and opened it to watch it, frowned slightly. Then he handed the white cloth to his personal soldiers with a look of his eyes.

Soon Yang Fu, Ma Chao and Ma Dai finished reading it, and they all frowned.

"What does Grand Sima mean?" Yan Xing asked with his head raised.

"As the general saw, General Xu Shu, beheaded Yang Qiu's general Chen Yan in Meiyang City, and General Xu Huang, sent someone to surrender to the five counties in Anding. Yang Qiu was already in trouble with internal and external affairs. The reason why he did not collapse now is that he hoped for General's reinforcements."

Li Li smiled calmly, then suddenly calmed down and changed his tone, saying, "A gentleman has the right to save his troops. Now that the general holds heavy troops, do you want to refuse to save him when he dies?"

"My Grand Marshal invites the general to fight. Can the general dare?"

In the end, Li Li's chest was expanded and he made a sound.

Yan Xing, Yang Fu and others all understood that this was a method of provoking generals. They stationed troops in Jieting, with strong troops and strong horses. Anding County Magistrate Yang Qiu was as dangerous as he was, and needed their rescue.

If you want to rescue and stabilize the country, you must defeat Zhang Xiu.

Is it feasible to defeat Zhang Xiu?

Ma Chao's blood was suddenly boiling, his fists were clenched, and he wished he could lead his troops to fight with Zhang Xiu. But he also endured it and looked up at Yang Fu.

Yang Fuze smiled and said to Li Li: "What a provocation. But since we know, how could we be fooled?"

"General Yan and Yang Qiu cannot save him. Let's continue to watch from the wall."

"Mr. Yang said very much." Yan Xing nodded calmly, then looked up and said to Li Li: "I, Mr., report back to the Grand Sima. I, Yan Xing, dug a hole and grew up in Jieting. I, did not go anywhere. I did not attack the Grand Sima. If the Grand Sima wants to kill Yan Xing, I will attack myself."

Li Li frowned slightly, but his eyebrows spread out soon. He bowed to Yan Xing and Yang Fu and said, "Okay."

After Li Li left the tent, Yan Xing was silent for a moment. Then he said, "That is due to his situation, the Grand Sima is not attacked. He sent orders to order all the generals to guard the camps and not to slack off. Those who violate the orders will be killed without mercy."

"promise."

A personal soldier responded and immediately sent an order.

In the camp of Liangzhou, the murderous aura surged into the sky, but it stopped and was just a tidy preparation.

Li Li returned to Zhang Xiu's camp and went straight into the tent. After reporting to Zhang Xiu, Li Li said ashamedly: "Ming Gong. His subordinates are incompetent. He was unable to invite Yan Xing to fight."

"Yan Xing is really a talented person, not something that can be provoked by words. I'm just trying it. Whether it succeeds or not is not a matter of Mr.'s business." Zhang Xiu shook his head and said kindly to comfort Li Li for a while, and asked Li Li to rest.

Despite this, Zhang Xiu sighed slightly. He left the central army's tent, came to a wooden platform and stood, looking at the camp in Liangzhou in the west.

"With Yan Xing staying in Jieting, I can only swallow Anding County."

"Only by killing Dong Zhuo, I can mobilize more troops and horses. The tiger swallows Liangzhou."

Zhang Xiu knew that this time he had done his best.

After one month.

Zhang Xiu learned that Yang Qiu had opened the city and surrendered, and Xu Huang and Xu Shu's soldiers had entered Meiyang City.

In the early morning, the fish belly in the east turned white and the sky was getting bright. Now it is already autumn, and the temperature in the northwest has even reached the point where people are frozen.

Fortunately, Zhang Xiu's men and horses were all from the north, and they were strong and had no influenza in the army.

In the central army tent, Zhang Xiu was wearing armor and stood up with his sword. After giving some orders, the tiger's eyes shone brightly and said: "The generals withdraw their troops in turn, and I personally lead the cavalry to break the rear."

"No." The civil and military officials responded to the promise and then scattered together. Soon after, Zhang Xiu's camps successively led the camps, and the generals retreated in turn. Zhang Xiu led 5,000 cavalry and Dian Wei to cut off the rear.

However, there was no movement in Yan Xing and Ma Chao in Liangzhou Camp.

Under the flag of "Zhang", Zhang Xiu held a big black gun and sat on a horse. His expectant eyes gradually dimmed. He looked up at Dian Wei and said, "Brother, it seems that Yan Xing will not come out."

"Yes." Dian Wei nodded simply.

"Retreat the troops. Go to Anding County." Zhang Xiu shouted and rode his horse to the east, leading five thousand elite cavalry to roll up the dust in the sky and headed towards Anding County.

Liangzhou Daying, at the camp gate.

The flags were flying in the wind, and Yang Fu, Yan Xing, Ma Chao, Ma Dai and others stood under the flags and watched Zhang Xiu lead his troops away.

"Zhang Xiu suddenly withdrew his troops, and Yang Qiu should have surrendered." Yan Xing withdrew his eyes and said to Yang Fu lightly.

"Yeah." Yang Fu nodded slightly. But soon there was a look of worry on Yang Fu's face. He said, "Although it's extremely straightforward for us to give up Yang Qiu, Zhang Xiu got Anding County, plus Lueyang County. He had land for the second county in Liangzhou. Next time he came, he would be stronger."

"This is also impossible. I dare to fight with Zhang Xiu, but I dare not lead our 60,000 horse and infantry army to fight with Zhang Xiu's 20,000 elite soldiers."

"Our general has strengths and weaknesses, and the troops are uneven." Yan Xing shook his head gently and said.

"I understand." Yang Fu nodded. Then Yang Fu was excited again and said, "Fortunately, this time Dong Zhuo only asked Zhang Xiu to lead his troops out of Xiaoguan. If Zhang Xiu gave 100,000 elite soldiers, it would probably be a fierce battle."

"According to some news, Dong Zhuo does not trust Zhang Xiu. He hopes that Dong Zhuo and Zhang Xiu will plot against each other and burn together. We can rest assured."

This is really impossible to beat. If Zhang Xiu and Dong Zhuo play together, then peace will be there forever.

Although the possibility is extremely low.

"Why do you two have to be more ambition and destroy our prestige? If Zhang Xiu comes again after a year or two, I will lead the troops to fight with him and separate the male and female." Ma Chao was so fierce that he was brave and fighting. He was very upset when he heard it next to him. He raised his face and clenched his fists and said loudly.

The voice is majestic and the tiger is majestic.

Yan Xing glanced at Ma Chao and thought to himself: "The child is indeed a child, he is just brave and aggressive, and he does not know the strategy of war."

Although Yang Fu thought Ma Chao was a little impulsive, Aiwu and Wu said happily: "The eldest son said it well. When the eldest son grows stronger and leads the elite soldiers of Liangzhou, he can fight to the death with Zhang Xiu."

"Yeah, yeah." The little fan Ma Dai focused his head, and an excitement appeared on his face.
