The Three Kingdoms: The Cold Gate World

Chapter 168
When Ma Teng and Han Sui entered Chang'an with Guo Jia, Han Sui didn't know what Ma Teng was thinking, but Han Sui's heart felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar.

There are four great pass guards in Guanzhong, which is why Guanzhong got its name.

Guo Jia has already succeeded in clearing the pass in the west.

Xiaoguan in the north is connected with the defense system of the Great Wall, preventing foreigners from going south from the north. Then lead the Qiang Hu Xianbei to go south.

In the east, Hangu Pass is in Sizhou, which will deter the two counties of Hedong and Hongnong. The emperor is now in Hedong, and to the north is the place where the Southern Huns are entrenched. Zhang Ji is in Hongnong. It is also necessary to drive away Zhang Ji, and even solve the Southern Huns.

To the south of Wuguan, Guo Jia sent Yan Yan to occupy it.

From a strategic point of view, Guo Jia took Sanguan in the west, Wuguan in the south, and Chang'an, and the land of Sanfu was already in his pocket.

Han Sui didn't expect Guo Jia to move so quickly, and looking at it now, Guo Jia's purpose has been clearly revealed.

The name is to save the emperor, but in fact it is to expand the territory!
He has long coveted the land in Guanzhong, but now that the general trend is going, what else can he do?On the way from Chencang to Chang'an, Guo Jia only had 3 people, but now?In Chang'an, Xu Chusan and Gan Ning's Yinling Flying Cavalry, Guo Jia has more than [-] soldiers and horses, and Han Sui only has [-]. Even if he and Ma Teng have [-], this is not a plain field battle. The space for their Xiliang iron cavalry to play is too limited.

After several days of cleaning up, burning corpses, and sweeping away the filth, Chang'an was indeed much cleaner, but it was still lifeless and desolate.

Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Gao Shun, and Fazheng set up a battle to welcome Guo Jia, which was more grand than before. This was Fazheng's idea, and the purpose was to show Ma Teng and Han Sui.

Ma Teng was worried about the Son of Heaven, and urged Guo Jia to ask about the situation ahead. Guo Jia answered him truthfully and did not hide anything.

Han Sui's heart was bleeding, but he still forced a smile on his face and congratulated Guo Jia's general Gan Ning on his victory.

Chang'an's imperial palace has long been dilapidated. It was destroyed by war 200 years ago because of Wang Mang's usurpation of the Han Dynasty. After Dong Zhuo moved the capital, the palace was not repaired much. After Li Jue, Guo Si and Fan Chou occupied Chang'an, the emperor did not live in the palace for a few days. Most of them were robbed like puppets on strings and lived in camps.

Guo Jia looked at the ruined imperial palace with some emotion. His mansion in Chengdu was much better than here.

"My lord, Li Jue, Guo Si and the family members of his generals have been controlled, how should we deal with it?"

Fazheng is in charge of the administration of Chang'an, Xu Chudian and Wei Gaoshun may not have thought of these things, but he immediately controlled these people after entering Chang'an.

Guo Jia glanced at Ma Teng and Han Sui beside him, and said indifferently: "The family members of Li Jue and Guo Si belong to the Yi family according to the laws of the Han Dynasty. The family members of other generals will not be prosecuted except for the crime of treason against the Zhu family. According to the law, let’s deal with crimes.”

After speaking, Fazheng left to make arrangements. Guo Jia observed the expressions of Ma Teng and Han Sui. Ma Teng showed a little relieved expression, but Han Sui remained expressionless.

There should always be someone to do the executioner, and the barbarians are the most important, but if Guo Jia doesn't give this order, it will be implemented instead.

Not only did Li Jue and Guo Si have no emperor, but they acted like rebellion. They also did everything they could to oppress the people, the barbarians, and the barbarians. It sounds cruel and innocent, but there will be countless people applauding.

Guo Jia will not be merciful, without an iron fist, he is not qualified to be the master, let alone compete in the world!

Taking another casual look at the dilapidated palace, Guo Jia turned and left.

Even if it's a ruin, as long as it's still called the Imperial Palace, Guo Jia can't go in casually.

The recent clean-up work in the city is still going on, and before the order in the city is completely restored, Guo Jia will stay in the camp in the city.

At night, the city of Chang'an was quiet, Han Sui suddenly came to Ma Teng's camp, and the two sent everyone away to have a secret talk.

Han Sui couldn't sit still anymore, he had to find out what Ma Teng was thinking.

"Brother Shoucheng, are you really determined to give your life to Guo Jia?" Han Sui's face was a little gloomy, and after many calculations, he didn't realize what he could gain from killing Li Jue and Guo Si this time. Interests.

Ma Teng stared at Han Sui inexplicably, and asked, "When did I say that I would work for Guo Jia?"

The military is subject to Guo Jia's command, which is to achieve the goal of saving the emperor. After the goal is achieved, everyone will naturally part ways.

Han Sui felt that Ma Teng was pretending to be ignorant, so he came to Ma Teng angrily, stared at him and asked, "Don't you understand the current situation? Did Guo Jia save the emperor? No, but he took After leaving the Sanfu land in Guanzhong, he, he is using the name of rescue to expand the territory."

Under Han Sui's gaze, Ma Teng looked away, went to the side, sat down, sighed, and said, "Guo Jia is good at taking care of the people and has good governance. It's not a bad thing for him to manage here. As for the emperor, Guo It is too early to draw a conclusion as to whether Jia is really just occupying the city and not going to save him, Li Jue and Guo Si are about to fall, let's see what Guo Jia will do next."

It is impossible not to worry about Guo Jia disregarding the emperor, and Ma Teng is also worried, but he can't expect Guo Jia to fly to Sizhou to meet him as soon as he enters Chang'an. Li Jue and Guo Si haven't really been wiped out yet.

Ma Teng, who didn't enter into oil and salt, seemed to only care about the emperor, and Han Sui couldn't be blunt that he could not get nothing when he sent troops. He was angry and anxious, and asked in a deep voice: "Then what should I do with Li Jue and Guo Si after beating Li Jue and Guo Si?" ? At that time, Guo Jia occupied the land of Sanfu, and then took the entire Guanzhong into his pocket. He was even more difficult to deal with than Li Jue and Guo Si, so you and I can only go back to Xiliang?"

Ma Teng laughed aloud, and comforted him: "Oh, isn't this simple? Welcome back the emperor, everyone is a Hanchen. Guo Jia was a high-ranking official at that time, and you and I were also heroes. If you don't want to be in Xiliang If you stay here, come to Chang'an to be an official and enjoy the blessings."

Han Sui's seven orifices were filled with smoke, and he left Ma Teng's camp with a tense face.

In the early morning of the next day, Guo Jia invited Ma Teng and Han Sui to discuss matters in the commander's camp in the city.

After the three important figures arrived, Guo Jia sat on the main seat, exchanged pleasantries, then stood up and showed the topographical map of Sansuke's land in front of everyone.

Pointing to the route to the east of Chang'an, Guo Jia looked at Ma Teng and Han Sui who were sitting next to him, and said, "Two generals, please look here, now Li Jue and Guo Si are leading less than [-] defeated soldiers back to Chang'an along the straight road. , I would like to invite the two generals to lead your Xiliang iron cavalry to send troops from Chang'an, and go around from the south to their south and rear. It would be a great achievement for a general to intercept and kill two people on the road. If not, I will lead the infantry to kill the two thieves together with the two generals in Chang'an. The meritorious deeds are rewarded, and the two generals are also the first ones."

As soon as Guo Jia finished speaking, Ma Teng showed excitement, Han Sui was still thinking, but Gan Ning, who was sitting behind, stood up and clasped his fists and said, "My lord, I will lead the silver-feathered flying cavalry to complete my lord's orders. I need to trouble the two generals, this merit will eventually be won by the Lord!"

Hearing this, Han Sui, who was still hesitating, suddenly realized in his heart: killing Li Jue and Guo Si is definitely a great contribution!If you go to the emperor to ask for merit, it will be no problem to be named a marquis and a general!
"Xingba, don't be brave. In terms of cavalry, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is invincible in the world. You only have [-] cavalry, and you can't compare to the Xiliang Iron Cavalry under the command of the two generals. You are not trying to be aggressive at this moment. Don't miss the opportunity! Get back. "

Guo Jiayi rebuked Gan Ning sternly, but Gan Ning was dissatisfied and retreated unwillingly, with a gloomy expression.

"I don't know what the two generals want?" Guo Jia put away his serious expression and asked Ma Teng and Han Sui gently.

Ma Teng agreed without hesitation, and clasped his fists in reply, "Your Majesty's Miaocai, I will command you to kill these two thieves!"

After thinking about the pros and cons, Han Sui agreed wholeheartedly.

Li Jue and Guo Si are the generals of the defeated army. After losing streak, it is no longer a good thing. Han Sui and Ma Teng will lead the high-spirited Xiliang iron cavalry to fight, and they will surely win the battle. Therefore, the risk of this battle is very low. It is also emboldened to ask for rewards in front of the emperor when the time comes.

After receiving the military order, Han Sui and Ma Teng left the tent with his generals. Han Sui had [-] cavalry under his command, Ma Teng had [-], and [-] Xiliang cavalry were enough to wipe out the entire army of Li Jue and Guo Si.

"My lord, should this credit be given to them?"

Although Xu Chu admitted that the Xiliang iron cavalry was slightly superior in terms of number and combat power, he was a little unhappy to see that the credit was taken away by others.

Guo Jia smiled playfully and didn't answer, but Gan Ning, who had a gloomy face just now, smiled heartily and said, "Zhongkang, people came from Liangzhou to help the lord, we must give them a chance to show."

"Wen Yuan, gather the archers and be ready to fight at any time."

Guo Jia didn't use bows and crossbowmen because it was not yet time, and archers were enough to deal with the defeated Li Jue and Guo Si.

After Wen and Wu dispersed, Guo Jia looked at the map and looked at the places in Hedong County.

The Son of Heaven should be in Hedong County now.

"If you don't let you make some military exploits, how can you go east with me?"

If all the credit for eliminating Li Jue and Guo Si was on Guo Jia, would Han Suimateng retreat after defeating Li Jue and Guo Si?Guo Jia is not sure, so let them have military exploits, and then go to Sizhou together.

As for whether to meet the emperor or have other plans, only Guo Jia knows in his heart.

Han Sui and Ma Teng left Chang'an with Xiliang iron cavalry, and their infantry stayed in Chang'an under the leadership of generals.

If Guo Jia stabbed them in the back at this time, he could kill them easily.

But Guo Jia won't, they are allies in name, treachery is an act of a villain, and will be despised by the world.

Besides, for Guo Jia, the current Ma Teng and Han Sui are two very handy knives.

One is for the sake of the emperor, the other is for the benefit. In fact, he is very afraid of Guo Jia but has to be used.
