In a valley in Xiliang, an army was moving rapidly. Except for a few generals riding horses, the rest of the soldiers were all infantry. Judging from the scale, there should be 20,000 to 30,000 people.

This army has a strict military appearance. Even when marching at full speed, there was no sign of chaos in the entire army. The soldiers were all red and full of energy.

Among the three generals in the head, one of them waved his hand. The messenger behind him waved the flag, and the army stopped immediately.

He looked up at the sky, then looked ahead, and asked, "How long is the distance to Wudu?"

A man who looked like a deputy general ran back and forth, "Report to General Zhang, this valley was coming out of the front, and after two more hills, you can enter the territory of Wudu County, Liangzhou. If you traveled starry night, you would arrive early tomorrow morning."

The general nodded slightly and said, "Then the order is sent. After leaving the valley, the entire army will rest for half an hour, and then rush to the road overnight. Be sure to arrive at Wudu County as soon as possible."

"No!" After the messenger received the order, he hurried down to convey the message.

The three generals all got off the horse together, sat on the stone beside them, and took out dry food and water bags.

At this time, a general with eyes that looked like a copper bell said, "This time Zhang Biejia's plan is really a clever plan. This is called feeding birds, hehe, it's very wonderful."

The general surnamed Zhang heard this and sipped out a sip of water.

"Ahem... Lao Lei, you read more books on weekdays, just feed birds, that's called surround Wei and save Zhao."

The big-eyed general shrugged and ignored it completely: "Hi, what does it matter if you are not reading or not? I, the few who don't know the big word "Lei Tong" are the same, lead troops to fight? In Yizhou, in terms of war, except for you, Zhang Ren, who else dares to say that they are stronger than me, Lei Tong?"

When Zhang Ren heard this, he smiled helplessly and said, "This time Luoyang sent a general Guan Yu to personally attack Xiliang. With Han Sui's strength, he is definitely not an opponent. In the north of Yizhou, there are Youfufeng, which is connected to Sili and Wudu County in Liangzhou. However, there are hundreds of miles of mountains blocking it from Youfufeng, which is difficult to cross. Only by walking through Wudu County can we attack the boundary of Yizhou. The mighty Wu, Jincheng, Longxi and other places north of Wudu were not under the control of the Luoyang court before. Now if Han Sui is defeated and loses all the lands, our Yizhou will be in danger."

Another military general next to him also said: "So this time the lord specially ordered us to send troops to Wudu, harass Hanyang, Anding and other counties, and even took the opportunity to attack Youfufeng to attract the attention of the Luoyang court. If you have the opportunity, you will attack and kill Guan Yu's army from the rear and rescue Han Sui's crisis. This is because of this consideration, right?"

Zhang Ren nodded and said, "General Ling Bao has a good guess. He is head-on. With the current strength of Yizhou, he is definitely not a match for Luoyang. He can only rely on the advantage of the geographical advantage and rely on his allies to fight against him in the future, so Xiliang must not be missed."

Speaking of this, he suddenly sighed: "Oh, it's a pity that the lord will use the heavy troops of Yizhou to prevent the invasion of Jingzhou. This trip only gave me 25,000 troops. Otherwise, I, Zhang Ren, would really want to drink the rumored Guan Yu and compete with each other."

In Zhang Ren's eyes, he was full of fighting spirit.

Lei Tong took a bite of dry food and chewed in his mouth, saying, "I don't know what the war in Xiliang is going on now. We are rushing all the way this time. It will take twenty days before Guan Yu's army set off from Luoyang. Han Sui's waste, don't be destroyed by Guan Yu so quickly, let's go in vain."

Ling Bao leaned over and hit him directly on the head: "You guy, you have always been a crow's mouth, so you can say a few less words."

"Hey, you dare to hit me, I will fight you..." Lei Tong was about to pounce on him.

"Okay, okay, be more at ease. Have the energy to keep killing the enemy." Zhang Ren was the head coach after all, and he was also known as the number one general in Sichuan and Sichuan. Lei Tong and Ling Bao also admired him very much. Seeing that he spoke, the two stopped fighting.

"General...General..." A scout rode his horse and ran from the other end of the valley.

Zhang Ren immediately stood up and ran over quickly. The scout came to him and dismounted and fell to kneel.

Zhang Ren hurriedly asked, "What's the situation in Xiliang? Where did Guan Yu's army fight?"

The scout gasped: "Return...Return...General, Guan Yu's army is................"

"Oh, you guy, can you finish speaking in one go? I'm so annoyed." Lei Tong roared.

Ling Bao glared at him: "Old Lei, be quiet, can't you finish listening to him?"

He turned his head and asked the scout: "From your boy's face, the news doesn't seem very good. Why, has Guan Yu already attacked Zhangye County?"

Zhang Ren said in a deep voice: "Han Sui's foundation is in Zhangye County. If this is the case, then the matter will be extremely urgent."

Unexpectedly, the scout shook his head: "No...No..."

When the three generals heard this, they all relaxed a little: "It's okay if you haven't arrived in Zhangye County. As long as Guan Yu is still in Weiwu County, we will have enough time."

Lei Tong laughed heartlessly: "Hahahaha... Everyone says that Guan Yu is so brave and invincible. He is dealing with a Han Sui Lao Zamao. After so long, he has not even been defeated in a mighty county. I think he is just a false reputation, and he is just bragging."

At this time, the scout's aura had also been adjusted.

"No... Ten days ago, Guan Yu and Zhu Ye joined forces to attack Fanhe City. The army of more than 20 Qiang tribes who originally said to assist Han Sui to besiege Guan Yu suddenly turned against him at the city, killing Han Sui and defeated Han Sui. Before Six, Han Sui and Xian Ling burned to be the patriarchs of the two Qiang tribes. Outside the city of Weide in Zhangye County, he was led by Zhao Yun... led 10,000 cavalry ambushed and killed the entire army. Han Sui and the two clan leaders died on the spot at the hands of Zhao Yun..."

"What, why is it so fast!" Zhang Ren was completely shocked.

Lei Tong grabbed the scout: "Han Sui and the two Qiang tribes have dispatched 130,000 to 140,000 troops, and so many city defenses and traps he had already arranged long ago. Why are they defeated in just twenty days? You kid are afraid you came back with fake news, right?"

"The villain dares not, the villain dares not... The news is absolutely true..." the scout begged for mercy.

Zhang Ren frowned and said, "Old Lei, let him go. This matter must be true. I guess Liu He had secretly bribed the more than 20 Qiang tribes. Han Sui thought he wanted them to come and help, but he didn't expect that they would be defeated so badly by their counterattack. But what I can't understand is how Zhu Ye and Zhao Yun suddenly appeared? Especially Zhao Yun, in the previous battle report, it was not mentioned that he had marched into Xiliang, so why did he appear directly in Guangde City in Zhangye County?"

The scout said, "I don't know the details. But I heard that Zhu Ye and Zhao Yun were secretly coming from Beidi County through the desert. Zhao Yun was traveling westward in the desert, probably by chance, and came directly to Weide City. As a result, they happened to catch up with Han Sui and others who had retreated."

"How is it possible? From Beidijun to Guide City, you have to travel through more than a thousand miles of deserts and grasslands. The grassland is still good, but the desert is extremely difficult to march. Even if there are local people as guides, it will take more than ten or even twenty days to complete. There is no supply along the way. The Huns were driven away by them, and there were not even tribes that could be robbed. They even had people and horses. What did they eat and drink? They might be lucky to find a river, but where did the food come from? It is impossible to carry one or two hundred kilograms of dry food with you, right?"

Ling Bao looked completely incredible.

Zhang Ren's face was very heavy: "Then Liu He has always been good at creating miracles. Perhaps they have any wonderful solutions that we could not imagine. Now this matter has become a fact, and it is useless to entangle these details."

Ling Bao seemed a little depressed when he heard this: "What should we do now? Han Sui was defeated. In a few days, Luoyang's troops would occupy the entire Liangzhou, and our Yizhou would be over."

Lei Tong said furiously: "What's the end? At worst, we can just join Sili and capture Liu He alive. What can we do if we don't believe the rumors outside. If Liu He is so brave, can he still have three heads and six arms? He has the kind of fighting with me Lei Tong."

"You know what's the matter! With our few people, I'm afraid that even Luoyang City will be destroyed if we can't even see it..."

"I don't understand, then you understand..."

The two of them immediately became a quarrel.

"Stop quarrel!" Zhang Ren shouted loudly, and the two of them finally calmed down.

Zhang Ren paced back and forth, as if thinking about something, suddenly, his eyes lit up.

"Have it!"
