The fierce battle lasted for three days.

In the end, the Western Region Allied Forces simply couldn't accept the casualties and retreated.

The number of soldiers under the command of the three candidates has dropped from 2 at the beginning to only 5000 now, and most of them are injured.

If the Western Region Allied Forces persisted for a while longer, they might be completely annihilated.

But they persisted.

The reason is simple, because they have no choice.

Even if he couldn't bear it and wanted to escape, he could only fight his way out of the Western Region Allied Forces.

Otherwise there is no other way to go.

The three candidates forcibly tied all the soldiers to their chariots in an extremely despicable way.

From the beginning of this battle, these soldiers had no other choice but to die.

The Western Region Allied Forces would not listen to a word they said.

As soon as the two sides meet, one of them is destined to be killed.

……

Outside Tianshui City.

Han Sui only besieged but not attacked, waiting for good news about the three candidates.

If the three candidates lose, Ma Chao comes to fight.

So just with these soldiers in his hands, Han Sui can guarantee his own safety.

"This old thief is very cautious, and he dares to play tricks in front of me."

Liu Xie naturally knew what Han Sui was thinking, and a sneer appeared on his face.

As expected, this wallflower cannot be trusted.

If Han Sui had trusted him because he killed Ma Teng, he would have betrayed him at some point.

"Your Majesty, how about I go and reprimand him?"

Xu Chuweng said in a loud voice.

"No need, he still has some use. I still need him to use his last light and heat, so let him enjoy the last moments of his life!"

Liu Xie waved his hand and said calmly.

No matter what choice Han Sui makes, Liu Xie will not lose.

The reason why Lu Bu was anxious before was that he could not take Qikou, enter Hanzhong, and form effective pressure on Yizhou.

Now Lu Bu has arrived at Nan'an, and Yan Yan is trapped in the city and dare not come out.

Liu Zhang even closed all the passes tightly, guarded them to the death, and did not dare to make any further moves.

Liu Xie was naturally not in a hurry here.

Yizhou is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it will probably take a long time to defeat it.

Other parts of Dahan also need development.

It seems that there are only three months left before the summer harvest.

There is still plenty of time to regain Liangzhou.

Because attacking the Western Regions must wait until after the summer harvest, otherwise the pressure on food and grass will be too high.

Liu Xie now has a lot of time to watch Han Sui's performance.

"Does Your Majesty want to conquer Ma Mengqi?"

Seeing that Liu Xie was reluctant to take action, Zhuge Liang estimated that Liu Xie was interested in the power of the Ma family in Fufeng.

Now that Ma Teng is dead, all the blame can be placed on Ma Teng.

Fufeng Ma and others took the opportunity to clear their names.

They have been inherited in Liangzhou for hundreds of years. Whether it is the people of Liangzhou or the foreigners outside the customs, the Fufeng Ma family has a certain prestige.

If they can be brought under his command, the imperial court's control over Liangzhou will definitely be strengthened.

"Yes, I do have a love for talents. If I want to take action against the countries in the Western Regions, subduing him is definitely the right choice." Anyway, the Ma family in Fufeng only has a group of killer talents who only know war. No one can play with their brains. No.

You don't have to worry about anything happening to your subordinates.

Liu Xie swore that it was definitely not because he saw Ma Yunlu's heroic appearance and felt that he had three thousand beauties in his harem and all kinds of beauties, but he lacked this kind of overlord flower with a bit of exotic style.

"Have you ever thought about it, Your Majesty? Ma Teng died because of Your Majesty, so Ma Mengqi will definitely hold a grudge, and I'm afraid he won't be able to be easily used by Your Majesty."

Although Zhuge Liang has never met Ma Chao, he has heard some things about Ma Chao these days.

Given his personality, he would rather die than work with his father-killing enemy.

"Who said Ma Teng died because of me? That was just Han Sui's wishful thinking! If Ma Mengqi killed Han Sui himself to avenge his father, everything would be over.

Originally, it had nothing to do with me. Ever since we approached Tianshui City, we have not sent any soldiers. Han Sui did everything.

If this can all be blamed on the imperial court, it can only be said that the Fufeng Ma family is destined to disappear in the long river of history. "

Although Liu Xie cherishes his talent, his patience is limited.

If the Fufeng Ma family couldn't see the situation clearly, then Liu Xie would have no choice but to send their whole family on the road neatly.

Regardless of whether it was a beauty or a fierce general, Liu Xie would kick the opponent away without hesitation if he stood in the way of unifying the world.

"With your Majesty's words, I will know what to do."

Zhuge Liang smiled and made a plan in his heart.

"Did Kong Ming come up with any good ideas?"

Looking at Zhuge Liang's expression, Liu Xie judged that he definitely had a solution.

"Your Majesty, don't ask any more questions. Your Majesty will naturally understand when the matter is accomplished. I beg your pardon that I cannot say anything now."

Zhuge Liang replied with a smile on his face.

"You are still pretending to be mysterious. In this case, I also believe that you will not harm me. It's all up to you."

Liu Xie waved his hand and stopped asking.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

……

"Lord, Pang De has called for formation outside again. If he doesn't respond, I'm afraid the brothers will have objections. The defenders in Tianshui City have been getting ready to make a move in the past two days. Please make a decision early."

Zhang Heng stood aside and said helplessly.

"Response? How to respond? Four of the eight generals in my hand have died at the hands of Pang Lingming. How can I still mobilize more people?

Are you willing to solve this scourge for me? "

Han Sui glanced at Zhang Heng and asked.

"My lord, my subordinates have to guard against people in Tianshui City escaping. There is no chance to fight with him!"

Naturally, Zhang Heng would not go. He had already seen Pang De's methods, and he did not want to rush to die.

"You don't want to respond, so why don't you let me go in person?"

Han Sui said angrily.

There was no one left under him. Could Zhang Heng's words mean that he wanted Han Sui to go and meet Pound by himself, even if he never came back?

Even if Pang De was hacked to death, he still had to bring Han Sui with him before he died.

"My lord taught me a lesson to my subordinate Meng Lang. I hope my lord will forgive me."

Cold sweat was pouring from Zhang Heng's forehead. He had just explained the dangers of the battlefield, but he had not considered other situations, and he had made a miscalculation.

"Seeing that you have followed me in the north and south and fought hard, I won't punish you, but no one in Tianshui City can be let go.

They must not be allowed to contact Pang Lingming's people. This is our last chance.

If something goes wrong, you and I may not be able to survive. "

Han Sui's words were serious and thoughtful, as if he would suddenly die in the next second.

"Don't worry, my lord, as long as I'm here, not a single bird in Tianshui City can fly out."
