This time the expedition.

It was the first time after Liu Xie took power, and it was also the key time for the generals to truly establish his complete control of the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty.

The lineup is also unprecedentedly strong.

Wu has Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, and Cao Cao recruited from the family Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, etc., Wen has Jia Xu, who advises, and another 15 elite soldiers are enough to deal with everything.

The main thing is to pacify Liangzhou this time, so that the princes of the world can be deterred, and Liu Xie will also take back all the rights.

Here.

This time Liu Xie's imperial conquest battle.

All the princes are paying close attention.

Especially Yuan Kai's two nephews, Yuan Shao who now lives in the prefect of Bohai, and Yuan Shu who occupies Huainan.

Bohai County, inside the prefect's mansion.

"My lord, the Son of Heaven has already set out to fight. Shouldn't our plan be carried out?" A middle-aged scribe respectfully reported to Yuan Shao who was sitting on the high seat.

"The emperor is not benevolent. I am the fourth generation and third father of the Yuan family, and my uncle is the elder of the two dynasties. He has contributed a lot to the great man, but he was beheaded by the emperor because of Dong Zhuo's battle. If this revenge is not avenged, I, Yuan Shao, will be a nephew in vain. What about the emperor? I, Yuan Shao, are not afraid." Yuan Shao said coldly, clenching his fists.

"Let's seize Jizhou first and gather troops and horses. In the future, we will be able to kill the emperor, and you will be born as the times require, my lord, to replace him." The scribe said excitedly.

"Hmph, you can't say that. Even if I raise troops, I will be on the side of the Qing emperor, so I can't talk about rebellion." Yuan Shaoyin sneered.

"My lord is wise." The scholar in the hall complimented.

"Guo Tu, you will send someone to contact Yuan Shu later, the cavalry will need him to encircle from the south, otherwise I will not be able to resist Liu Xie alone," Yuan Shao said.

"Please rest assured, my lord, the subordinates must make proper arrangements." Guo Tu said respectfully.

......

And the other side.

Changan.

After Dong Zhuo's death, his generals fell apart and became several separatists.

Li Jue, Zhang Ji, Guo Si, and Xu Rong each supported tens of thousands of soldiers, and none of them obeyed the other.

And Guo Si occupied Chang'an, the former capital of the Great Han Emperor, and Li Jue and the others were scattered in Liangzhou, each in charge of the prefectures.

This time, Liu Xie's imperial conquest is very powerful.

Guo Bang and the others have become frightened birds, panicking and bewildered.

Several people gathered in Chang'an City to discuss countermeasures to deal with the menacing army of the imperial court.

Inside the Chang'an Prefect's Mansion.

Guo Si, Xu Rong and others gathered together, everyone's face was full of dignity.

"The imperial court sent hundreds of thousands of troops to attack us. If we don't think of a solution this time, the result will be a dead end." Guo Si said very seriously.

"Today's emperor's personal conquest has already overwhelmed us in momentum. If we resist with the army, the final result may be a disastrous defeat. I think it is better to send an envoy to contact the emperor. Maybe he will let us live. After all, it was Dong Zhuo who raised the army and rebelled. , not us." Zhang Ji looked at the crowd with hesitation and persuaded.

"Zhang Ji, do you want to drag us to die together?"

"Your lord, you don't mention how much kindness you have given us, just because we stepped into Luoyang and trampled on the imperial power. Do you think that little emperor will let us go?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhang Ji's voice fell, Guo Si and others cursed and looked at each other, very angry.

"This is just a proposal, and you need to discuss the details."

Seeing the expressions of several people, Zhang Ji knew that he would suffer a loss if he continued, so he immediately gave in.

"Okay, in the current situation, we must be united to fight against the imperial army. We must not fight among ourselves now." Xu Rong said.

"That's right, only with one mind can we fight against the imperial court." Guo Si and others nodded in agreement.

"Have all your soldiers and horses been transferred?" Guo Si asked.

"All the soldiers and horses have been transferred, just waiting for the imperial army to arrive." Xu Rong and others said humanely.

"According to the report from the spies, the imperial court has 15 troops this time, and our total number of soldiers and horses is 20, which is [-] more than the imperial court. From this point of view, our chances of winning are even greater. As long as we stick to it Chang'an, when the imperial court runs out of food and grass, we will win without a fight, and then we will take advantage of the situation to counterattack, and then we can attack Luoyang again and capture the little emperor." Guo Si smiled and spoke out his blueprint.

......

Chapter 24

"General Guo also thinks too easily about the emperor. You must know that Lu Bu is loyal to the emperor now. With his bravery, who among us can defeat him?" Zhang Ji said with a slight sarcasm.

"Why does General Zhang want to build up other people's aspirations and destroy his own prestige?" Guo Si glared at Zhang Ji with some displeasure: "Although Lu Bu is strong, he is only one person. We have 20 soldiers and horses, and we have [-] soldiers and horses. With Chang'an City guarding it, even if Lu Bu has an invincible combat power, can he still forcefully destroy my Chang'an City?"

"I can only say that the emperor is not that simple, otherwise he would not be able to subdue a fierce general like Lu Bu." Zhang Ji said.

"I don't need to say more if I have to say something superfluous. In short, if we don't start a war with the imperial court this time, we will die." Guo Si's eyes were cold, and he had already decided to fight Liu Xie to the end.

"I agree with General Guo's words. We will fight to the end. We have several counties in Liangzhou as our backing, and Chang'an City is guarding us. No matter how strong the imperial court is, it is impossible to break through in a short time." Li Jue said.

"Well."

"Now let's divide the defense of the four city gates of Chang'an." Guo Si glanced at everyone, and he already regarded himself as the commander in chief.

"I led an army of [-] to guard the main gate of Chang'an, and confronted the imperial army head-on. General Li Jue led an army of [-] to guard the west gate, General Xu Rong guarded the south gate, and General Zhang Ji guarded the east gate."

"What do you guys think of the distribution this time?" Guo Si asked.

"Yes, we can guard one gate with all our strength so that the court has no way to break through, and there is no gap between us. It's like an iron barrel. The court has no way to break through the city." Xu Rong nodded in agreement.

"Since we are all prosperous now, and we are all damaged, then I will say another ugly word. If someone dares to turn their arms outward, then don't blame the general for being ruthless." Guo Si said coldly, his eyes crossed Xu Rong They, but the focus still settled on Zhang Ji for a moment.

After all, if Zhang Ji wanted to surrender and seek peace before, it was inevitable that Guo Bang would notice him.

Time flickers.

Half a month has passed.

After such a long march, the 15 troops commanded by Liu Xie also approached the city of Chang'an.

The former ancient capital of the Han Dynasty is also far away in Liu Xie's eyes.

"Qizou Your Majesty, Chang'an City is only five miles away, may I ask Your Majesty whether to attack directly or what?" Lu Bu rode his horse to Liu Xie's side and asked respectfully.

"Order the army to set up camp in place, rest for one night first, and attack the city tomorrow." Liu Xiewei ordered.
