The war in Jincheng lasted for a day and did not stop. Ma Chao's offensive was fierce. Although Han Sui barely defended it, he lost thousands of people in one day. Although Ma Chao lost more, at least more than three times the number of people, it is not certain that he could make this ratio on the first day, and the second day is not necessarily the same. There is a difference between two thousand people defending the city and three thousand people defending the city.

The worst thing is that in one day, the troops arranged by Han Sui in various places did not react at all, and he did not even see the shadow of a reinforcement.

Logically speaking, Zhiyang is close to the place, Cheng Yin has 8,000 garrisons here, and the two sides are less than fifty miles apart. When they see the beacon, they can arrive in half a day. However, from the morning to the evening, Zhiyang's reinforcements did not even see a shadow.

The same is true for the other routes.

If there was a person betrayed him, Han Sui did not doubt that he never believed in loyalty, but it was impossible for everyone to betray him, but no one came to help. The only explanation was that he was blocked.

In this place of Xiliang, Han Sui could not think of a second person except Ma Teng, but with such meticulous actions, he cut off his own way without knowing it in advance. This was definitely not something Ma Teng could do.

But now, it’s useless to think about it.

It was late at night. Han Sui paid great attention to health preservation on weekdays. Usually he had already gone to bed at this time, but tonight, Han Sui did not. Sitting in his study, silently closed his eyes, and thinking about the current situation. Ma Teng now seems to have completely surrendered to Ye Zhao. The fight is quite regular. First cut off reinforcements, and then let Ma Chao lead the elite troops to attack Jincheng. As long as Han Sui dies, whether it is Ma Teng or Ye Zhao, as long as he throws out an olive branch, those subordinates who are loyal to him will definitely surrender without hesitation.

This may be the reason why Ye Zhao chose Ma Teng but did not choose himself. Ye Zhao did not need an army that was not under his control. Compared with Ma Teng, he was obviously not so easily controlled.

After understanding this, Han Sui smiled bitterly and shook his head, but there was no way.

"Father-in-law." Yan Xing walked in, clasped his fists at Han Sui and said, "The night patrol has been settled."

"Previous night patrol?" Han Sui shook his head and said, "Prepare to break through."

"Breakthrough?" Yan Xing looked at Han Sui in shock and said, "Although Ma Chao is arrogant, our army does not have to be afraid of him. The winner is not decided, so why break through?"

"Ma Chao's brave husband is not afraid of it." Han Sui shook his head and said, "But behind him, the Taiwei, the Taiwei is now going to attack us. Ma Teng and his son are just front pawns. Even if they are defeated, do you think we can block the 100,000 troops in Guanzhong?"

"But I heard that the Taiwei is not in Chang'an now fighting in Bingzhou, and Hetao also has to divide his troops to garrison. How many soldiers and horses are there in Chang'an?" Yan Xing said in confusion.

"So, they urged Ma Teng to attack." Han Sui sneered: "No matter if one soldier or another, I asked me to fight each other. This is a battle without a winner. Whether Ma Teng defeated me in the end or I defeated Ma Teng, the only winner in the end was Ye Zhao. Instead of fighting here and then giving Ye Zhao a better advantage, it would be better to give up the foundation of Xiliang and find another place! Whether Ma Teng surrenders or fighting with Ye Zhao, it has nothing to do with us."

Yan Xing suddenly realized and looked at Han Tunnel: "When will we break through?"

"Wait a little longer, although Ma Teng is powerful, the elite gather here and there should not be many troops intercepting other places. Cheng Yin, Yang Qiu and Liang Xing should be able to fight out, and there should be news tomorrow. Just relying on the people in our city, even if they break out, it will be difficult to find another foundation. You have to gather some troops." Han Sui said with a smile.

"Did my father-in-law think about where we will go after we break through?" Yan Xing looked at Han Sui and said.

"Although the Central Plains is large, there is no place for me to live in. The Zhangye guard is my confidant. We will go to Zhangye first and then ask the court for the position of the Western Regions to protect the Western Regions from the court. We have had some friendship with many Western Region countries before and have gained a foothold in the Western Regions. Although it is not as prosperous as the Central Plains, it is worse than relying on others." Han Sui said with a smile.

He had already thought about the retreat. Since he was called the Nine Curves of the Yellow River and the Three Holes of the Cunning Rabbit, how could he not know?

But now Ma Chao led his army to raid, which caught him off guard. If you want to leave, you have to defeat Ma Chao first.

"What my father-in-law said is very much." Yan Xing nodded with a smile and said, "Then I'll go and prepare."

"Go, it's only these two days!" Han Sui nodded. The defenders of Jincheng can only be defended for two days at most, and they may not be able to defend any longer.

"Here!"

...

Outside Jincheng, Ma Chao's camp.

"Brother, Han Sui's soldiers are so powerful." In the commander's tent, Ma Tie sat opposite Ma Chao with some depression and said, "The wall of Jincheng is not high. Logically speaking, even if you cannot break the city today, Han Sui can suffer heavy losses, but Han Sui doesn't know where he got so many armor, weapons, and equipment far exceeds our army! The counter-attack caused a lot of damage to our army."

"I heard from my father that over the past year, Han Sui has used Chang'an to trade with the Western Regions and has gained a lot of benefits from the people of the Western Regions!" Ma Chao sneered: "The Dayuan Liangma alone, I heard that he got six horses from the Western Regions."

Dayuan Liangjia is a rare commodity. Even though Xiliang is not short of horses, there are only three horses in the army, and Han Sui has as many as eight. This alone is enough to make people jealous, let alone excellent equipment, gold and silver and other things.

Ma Tie's eyes lit up when he heard this. The Dayuan Liangjiao in Ma Teng's army had a master, Ma Teng and Ma Chao. In addition, Ma Teng gave one to win over the general Pang De, and there was not even Ma Tie and Ma Xiu as his son, let alone others. If the city could be broken, the eight Dayuan Liangjiao should have their own one, right? Ma Tie had been jealous of Ma Chao's snow-white Dayuan Liangjiao for a long time.

"Brother, when will we break the city?" Thinking that he might have a Dayuan harem, the horse Tieyi heart couldn't stop being so hot. He couldn't wait to break through Jincheng and snatch those Dayuan harem.

"It's two or three days." Ma Chao thought for a while. If there were no new equipment, he might be able to capture it today, but Han Sui's military equipment was renovated and strengthened, and the cost of destroying the city would naturally be higher.

"Tomorrow, I will supervise the battle myself!" Ma Tie bowed to Ma Chao excitedly and said, "Brother, I'll take a break, I'll say goodbye."

After saying that, he turned around and left without waiting for Ma Chao to react.

Looking at Ma Tie's back as he left, Ma Chao sighed helplessly. Just as he was about to go to rest, he saw a dusty soldier rushing over and being stopped by his personal guard outside the tent.

"What's the matter?" Ma Chao left the camp, recognized the other party as Ma Teng's personal guard, waved his hand to let the personal guard leave, and looked at the other party and said.

"Young Master, something happened!" Ma Teng's personal guard bowed and said, "The lord led his army to attack Zhiyang today, but unfortunately he was hit by the Liuya!"

"How is the injury?" Ma Chao asked with a frown.

"The military Chinese medicine craftsman is treating him, and the Lord is in a coma!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Chao frowned even deeper. Once Ma Teng fell, the army would inevitably be in chaos. In order to prevent Cheng Yin from taking advantage of the situation, there must be someone with high prestige to shock the three armies.

Of course, only Ma Chao is suitable for this matter, but Jincheng is about to break down here. At this time, if you leave by yourself, you will inevitably have a sudden change.

"I passed our military order and ordered Ma Tie to lead his troops to continue attacking Jincheng. I personally went to Zhiyang to see my father's injuries." After thinking for a while, Ma Chao decided to let Ma Tie stay to defend the city, go to Zhiyang himself, and take charge of the overall situation again. As for Jincheng, there is no resistance now. Even if Ma Tie is defeated, it will not be damaged from the foundation.

"Here!" The personal guard agreed and went to inform Ma Tie. Ma Chao led his personal guards to rush to Zhiyang overnight.

"I'll lead the army?" When Ma Tie received the news, he was a little stunned. Although he was Ma Teng's son, it was the first time that he had received his order alone.

"Yes, this is the order of the eldest son." Several deputy generals said.

Very good!

After taking the general order, Ma Tie's heart was immediately wiped out, and the opportunity he had been waiting for finally came.

The next morning, Ma Tie led his troops to attack Jincheng, intending to take down Jincheng in the shortest time and let his father and brother see his abilities.

"Strange, why is Ma Chao's army so weak today?" Han Sui heard the sound of fighting and came to the top of the city. He looked at the dense crowd of Ma Teng's soldiers and horses pounced on one after another like an ant tide, but he lost the morale yesterday. He was slightly stunned, and then he reacted and smiled: "God gave me the opportunity to break the enemy!"

"What does father-in-law mean?" Yan Xing said inexplicably.

"What do you mean? Although Ma Chao is a reckless man, he is proficient in military tactics. If it were him, he would not have attacked in such a mess. At this time, the generals had already been replaced in the army." Han Sui sneered: "It must be that something happened in other places, and Ma Chao went to rescue him overnight."

The level of leadership of Ma Chao and Ma Tie is obviously not on the same line. Yesterday, Ma Chao was there, and the army was full of morale, but now it was a different situation. Ma Tie is not as good as the champion, but his martial arts skills are good, but it is just good. Moreover, on the battlefield, the command and control of the troops are not personal bravery. In this regard, Ma Tie is obviously not a little worse than Ma Chao, so Han Sui saw the flaws as soon as the war started.

In fact, Ma Chao did not expect Ma Tie to break the city, but he just hoped that Ma Tie could kill Han Sui and wait for him to come back to deal with Han Sui. Who knew that Ma Tie was born in a newborn calf and fought several battles with Ma Chao. He felt that he was not bad, so he went on the battle himself and directed the soldiers to attack the city. However, he didn't know that the stuff was leaked from the beginning, allowing Han Sui to see through at first sight.

"Then now..." Yan Xing said with some uncertainty.
