Niu Fu worriedly said: "I also know that it is better to stay in Chang'an, but the current situation is that we can't stay in Chang'an. If we don't leave now, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave after Zhu Jun's hundreds of thousands of troops arrive!"
Li Jue said: "How about we go directly to Li Ru? Together we have 110,000 people. Even if Zhu Jun leads the army into Guanzhong, we may not be unable to fight!"
Fan Chou worriedly said: "If we really want to fight with Zhu Jun in Guanzhong, we are afraid that we will not have enough food, grass and equipment. Fighting for a month is not the same as fighting for half a year! The food, grass and materials in our hands are not enough to support us and Zhu Jun's army. Rush!”
Jia Xu remained silent. He did not expect that Liu Bei would refuse to accept the alliance with them. You must know that as long as the alliance is successful, he can replace Dong Zhuo and become the prime minister of the Han Dynasty. With such a status that one person is less than ten thousand people, Liu Bei can actually refuse to accept it. , this is something Jia Xu did not expect.
It seems that Liu Bei is a loyal minister to the Han Dynasty like Huangfu Song! Then we have to think of other ways.
After discussing for a long time, Hu Zhen and the others could not find a way to improve their situation. When they found that Jia Xu had not spoken, they asked: "Wen He, don't be silent. Is there any way you can improve our current situation? If we don't think of a way, we will I’m going to be trapped and die in this level.”
Jia Xu said: "Don't worry, we still have many ways out. If we really can't break Chang'an City, we can retreat to Xiliang. If that doesn't work, we can also seek refuge with Lei Gong. Everyone knows what Lei Gong did in Jizhou and Youzhou. He It is impossible to reconcile with Yang Biao and the others. As long as we surrender to Lei Gong and lead Lei Gong's army to Sili, we can avenge the Prime Minister!"
Niu Fu was afraid and said: "To be honest, I am more afraid of Lei Gong. He is a murderer. We can kill ordinary people at most, but Lei Gong kills all the nobles. All the nobles in the two states have been killed." I have killed all of them, but this is a ruthless man whom I hate even more than the Prime Minister!"
Others have the same opinion, and they are also worried that Lei Gong will kill them too. Although they are not from a wealthy family, they are also from powerful families in Xiliang, and they are the targets of suppression by the Tengjia Army!
Jia Xu said: "It's useless to think about this now. Let's meet up with Li Ru and the others first! With 100,000 troops in hand, whether we are attacking Chang'an or negotiating terms with the court for recruitment, having more troops is always a good thing!"
At this time, the defense of Chang'an City had been handed over to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei ordered Duan Yan to lead his remaining troops back to Chang'an City.
Duan Xuan's arrival brought 60,000 troops to Chang'an City. It can be said that as long as Liu Bei defends Chang'an City, Niu Fu and the others will have no chance of breaking through Chang'an City.
The next day, Niu Fu and others commanded the army to surround Chang'an City. In order to test the defense of Chang'an City, they stormed Chang'an City for a day.
However, under the command of Liu Bei, Niu Fu and others did not even climb the top of the Chang'an city wall, and the Xiliang army failed in their first attack on the city.
On the third day, Li Ru led 50,000 Xiliang troops to join Niu Fu and others!
At this point, 110,000 Xiliang troops gathered together. They attacked Chang'an City from three sides, but the defenders of Chang'an City were more than half of them. Liu Bei and others were also experienced veterans. They suffered 5,000 casualties, which verified the strength of Chang'an City. The defense is not something they can break!
On the 4th, Liu Bei sent Huangfu Li as an envoy to the Xiliang army camp and told Niu Fu and others that the court was willing to rehabilitate Dong Zhuo, bury him on a certain day, restore Dong Zhuo's honor, and even interrogate Yang Biao and others. Those who are willing to recruit Fu and others can be promoted to official positions and become nobles.
"We will not appease Yang Biao until we see his own head. Now that we are here, we will use the swords in our hands to avenge the Prime Minister!"
Huangfu Li was driven back to Chang'an City by Niu Fu and others!
On the 5th, Zhang Ji reported urgently from Tongguan. Zhu Jun led his army to attack Tongguan. The Northern troops were numerous and powerful, and Tongguan was in danger. He could not hold on any longer.
Niu Fu and the Xiliang generals were so anxious that the governor's troops attacked Chang'an City, but they achieved nothing except causing them a large number of casualties.
Xiliang military camp!
"Everyone, now we can only be realistic. It is impossible for us to break through Chang'an. How about we disperse the army and rob the noble families in Guanzhong. In this way, we can get a large amount of food and supplies, and secondly, we can avenge Dong Guoxiang. Even if we have to fight the imperial army, we can only fight with the imperial army with these supplies." Han Sui thought for a while and said.
He came to Guanzhong with the intention of grabbing Guanzhong supplies to support his territory in Xiliang. Zhu Jun's army was about to enter Guanzhong, and if he didn't grab it, it would be too late.
Li Ru said fiercely: "That's right, even if we can't break through Chang'an City, we will still have a bloodbath in Guanzhong and make Yang Biao and the others pay the price!"
Niu Fu said: "In this way, we can divide several counties respectively, kill all the students and former officials of Yang Biao and others, and rob the wealth of these noble families! This way we won't eat sand when we go to Xiliang!"
Several other Xiliang generals also felt that since Yang Biao could not be killed, it would be the same to kill Yang Biao's disciples and former officials.
So the 110,000 Xiliang army was divided into more than a dozen groups and attacked various counties in Guanzhong.
These counties had no troops to resist the Xiliang army, and the city was easily captured.
More than 100,000 Xiliang troops completely abandoned military discipline and slaughtered the people with great brutality, robbing property and women. Suddenly, the entire Guanzhong was littered with corpses and rivers of blood.
The Xiliang army carried out mass killings throughout Guanzhong. Yang Biao, Zhang Wen, Wang Yun, Huang Wan and many other ministers and their disciples and disciples were the focus of this killing. All their family members were killed and all their wealth was robbed.
Such killings soon became uncontrollable and soon spread to ordinary people. The soldiers of the Xiliang Army were already red-blooded. They killed everyone they saw and robbed anything they encountered. Millions of people in the entire Guanzhong were on the verge of killing. Bloody storm.
There were mountains of human heads everywhere in Guanzhong. Niu Fu and others used the heads of wealthy nobles to build a temple, and more than 100,000 people died.
News of the Xiliang army's mass killing in Guanzhong soon spread to Chang'an City.
Liu Bei was furious and immediately wanted to lead his army out of Chang'an City to surround Niu Fu and them!
But they were stopped by the civil and military officials of the imperial court. Niu Fu's actions frightened Yang Biao and the others. They are now even more worried about the Xiliang army breaking Chang'an City. They are afraid that the entire civil and military officials of the imperial court will be defeated by this group of Xiliang army. Killed them all.
Now the civil and military officials just want to hide in Chang'an City to protect themselves, but the people outside Chang'an City can only close their eyes and not know these things.
On the 15th, Zhang Ji reported urgently that Zhu Jun had captured Tongguan and his army retreated to Huayin City. The situation was extremely critical.
Niu Fu and others also plundered the entire pass. They joined Zhang Ji, and together they retreated to Anling with the looted property and food.
