Facing the 150,000 well-equipped, high-morale tiger and wolf Qin army, as well as an all-star general lineup, Yang Guang really couldn't muster much confidence, so he quickly summoned Gao Jun, Zu Jue, Cheng Gongying and other think tanks to discuss countermeasures.

All the military advisers of the Sui State knew that they would definitely not be able to defeat them. After all, the Qin State was too powerful and the Sui State alone could not be its opponent.

Just look at what happened to Li Tang.

He, Li Shimin, must be brave enough to dare to challenge Qin in a duel. As a result, Guanzhong fell, all his elite soldiers were lost, and he even died in the battle.

Liangzhou, which was occupied by the Sui State, was already a barren land, and a duel with the Qin State, which had millions of soldiers, was almost looking for death.

If the Sui State wants to confront the Qin Dynasty, it must find allies to share the pressure. However, their die-hard ally Tang State has been completely defeated, and there is no force in Liangzhou that can support the Sui State.

After learning about the fall of Chang'an and the death of Li Shimin in battle, Yang Guang scolded Li Shimin in his heart.

How can you deceive your teammates like this? It’s too deceiving.

The reason why Yang Guang dared to send troops to Guanzhong was because he believed that Li Shimin could hold out until reinforcements arrived, but he never expected that the Tang army would lose the entire Guanzhong before they could hold out for even a month.

Even if Li Shimin died, it would be fine, but he still left such a huge mess. The Qin State now went straight to Liangzhou, and the Sui State directly faced the pressure of the Qin State.

How to solve this?

Only when he truly faced the pressure from the Qin army could Yang Guang realize how much pressure Li Shimin faced.

Yang Guang didn't want to end up like Li Shimin, and the best outcome now was to pay a small price and the Qin and Sui armies stopped fighting.

After some discussion, Yang Guang decisively decided to withdraw his troops and at the same time sent Cheng Gongying as an envoy to sue for peace with Qin.

Of course, Yang Guang did not put all his hopes on the peace talks. Although his army returned to Anding County, he transferred all the troops from the rear to Wuwei County, ready to mobilize the entire country's troops to resist the Qin army if the negotiations failed.
