This time the interval is too long, I'm sorry. The first week was mainly because of busyness, and the latter was because of bottlenecks. The first four thousand words of this chapter were written a few days ago, but I couldn't continue writing it until the afternoon.

I heard some readers scolded me for being unfinished, and I felt a little strange in my heart. Because in my heart, unfinished does not mean that the end of the book is written slowly, but that the ending is at the end. For various reasons, I can't avoid the former during this period, but the random ending in the content is something I don't want. Tang Qi's story is just like Chang'an to Zhang Mai, I will write it in full no matter what! For you, and for myself!

——————————

The general Zhang Mai was thinking of was Liu Zhiyuan. He attacked the Wei River with a strange plan, repelled the invading generals, and then seized the ranch and formed cavalry. At this time, Anshen and Ma Xu's alliance arrived, but Liu Zhiyuan had already stabilized his position, set fire to the ranch, and fought with fire. The morale of the whole army was a hundred times higher. Deputy General Wang Jun broke into the Tang army formation, killed Ma Xu, and defeated the Tang army.

Liu Zhiyuan watched from behind and saw that the troops and horses of Qinxi were defeated with one blow, but Tiance's regular government soldiers still had the strength to resist. After the battle situation was won, the deputy general was about to pursue him. Liu Zhiyuan said: "This time, it takes half a day to go to Qinzhou to whip the horse and relay. It will take half a day to march normally, and it will not stop until tomorrow. Our army crossed the river, fought on the bank, seized the ranch, and won with fire. We encountered four consecutive encounters in one night. We had lost our strength and had to rest and force Qinzhou. Otherwise, when we arrived at the city of Qinzhou, our people would not even have the strength to ride horses. At that time, Zhang Mai only needed hundreds of personal guards to defeat us."

Wang Jun said: "He dares to fight by himself?"

Liu Zhiyuan said: "From his past actions, if he is at the end of his life, he will probably go out of the city to fight me! Therefore, we must build our strength and look forward to the success of the battle!"

Wang Jun said: "It's just that we are far behind enemy lines, so we're afraid that we won't sleep well, so Tiance comes again."

Liu Zhiyuan said: "We crossed the Wei River and attacked, which was a nail in Zhang Mai's eyes. If he had any elite soldiers and strong generals at this time, he would have sent out long ago. Now he is such a second-rate product. A famous general in the Tiance army has not arrived. It seems that my judgment on the emptiness of Tiance Qinzhou is 100% true! I think if Zhang Mai is empty inside, he will definitely be unable to fight in the field. And we have few soldiers and cannot attack the city, so we can only attack our hearts. Let's rest and let Zhang Mai panic! I expect that Tiance will not have a strong army in half a day. When we have enough strength, it will not be too late to kill Qinzhou at that time."

When the generals heard this, they followed.

Liu Zhiyuan didn't say anything. He knew that his victory or defeat was not only dependent on himself, but on the reality of the Tiance Army and the actions of the Shu Army. He calculated that from the fire on the ranch soared into the sky, the Shu Army should have seen that if Meng Chang could cross the river smoothly, there would be still potential in this battle. Otherwise, with only a few thousand people, it would be impossible to achieve the greatest chance of victory.

"Of course, if Zhang Mai is really weak to the extreme, that's another matter! No matter what, you must try to fight Zhang Mai's direct descendants in Qinzhou!"

——————————

Liu Zhiyuan was right about it. Although he did not appear, the people in Qinzhou City were even more panicked. They didn't know what the strong army came from the west was. The fire suddenly started to burn in the west, and after the fire broke out, the actions of the Qinzhou Tiance Army seemed a little strange, which aggravated the suspicion of the soldiers and civilians in the city.

However, after dawn, the situation seemed to change, and the movements inside and outside the city became smoother. At this time, it was Zhang Mai who officially authorized An Shenqi. After he had a heart-to-heart relationship with An Shenqi, he seemed to have a less worry about the troubles of his elbows and armpits, so he could let go of his hands to deal with other things. Even some of the troops originally used to guard against Qin Xi could take action.

An Shenqi received Zhang Mai's order and was happy. He was transferred to Qinzhou culture by Zhang Mai because of the loss of the northern passes. Many capable generals were also transferred to the outside of Qinzhou City. However, the contact between the master and the slave was separated. At this time, he received the order to contact the generals and soldiers, and the superiors and subordinates were all excited. However, he thought: "I have selected the troops and horses in my hands, and there are only more than 5,000 strong soldiers. If this thing is done, it must be supported by Yang Tuzi. But Yang Tuzi is above me. If he is pulled, he will be the master and I will be the deputy, but the marshal may not be able to trust him. With that, I will let Yang Chengxun be my deputy."

Then he asked Zhang Mai for his order first, and Zhang Mai agreed. When An Shenqi went out, Ma Jirong came to report the battle of the Weihe River. The two passed by. Ma Jirong said: "According to An Shoushen's return, the Weinan Shu army attacked overnight, and the offensive was more fierce than before, but it always made people feel that they lacked the desperate spirit of the strange soldiers crossing the river last night."

Zhang Mai pondered and nodded, "I understand."

Ma Jirong said again: "I heard that the marshal asked An Shenqi to form an army? This person betrayed Li Congke first and then Shi Jingtang, and was not a loyal and righteous person. When the situation changed rapidly, would it be too risky to let such a person lead troops in his confidant place?"

Zhang Mai said: "Our big game is a risky one. Looking back now, I feel that I am too conservative in the tactical level of Qinzhou. Although An Shenqi rebels the Lord twice, if he followed the standard of whether he had surrendered, there would be no one to surrender in more than ten states in the western Qin Dynasty. I have observed this person for a long time, so there should be no problem."

Ma Jirong said: "Even so, should we be more cautious, for example, sending someone to 'assist' him?"

Zhang Mai lowered his head and pondered, and Ma Jirong said, "The Chief Commander Murong Xian is meticulous, has strong insight, and can adapt to the situation. Why not just send him there."

Murong Chunhua said from the side: "Axian has indeed experienced it in recent years and can take on this important task."

Zhang Mai did not respond, Ma Jirong said, "Then I will do it." He was about to go out, and Zhang Mai suddenly said, "Wait!" He paused and said, "You don't need to doubt people, you don't doubt people. I'm 80% sure An Shenqi will do things in a solid manner, but if Murong Xian goes, it will increase his doubts. Instead of restricting him, it's better to delegate power."

Murong Chunhua said: "Then should I really let him go?"

Zhang Mai said, "I have my own opinions." He shouted, "Xiaochun! Come in."

————————————

An Shenqi found Yang Guangyuan, conveyed Zhang Mai's order and said, "Old Yang, the marshal finally gave us this opportunity! We have to work harder!"

Yang Guangyuan reacted very coldly and said, "He is a subordinate, so he has to do this. Do you think he really trusts us? If you haven't obtained the cunning rabbit, you will naturally have to give the lackey some thoughts. But if you really think that he trusts you, it would be too naive! Look, he will definitely send a military supervisor to come back."

An Shenqi's face changed when he heard this. At this moment, someone came outside, but it was Ma Xiaochun. Yang Guangyuan glanced at An Shenqi and whispered: "Look, come here."

Ma Xiaochun is Zhang Mai's personal personalities. Although his position is not high, no one dares not to flatter him. When Yang Guangyuan saw him, he immediately changed his smile and repeatedly thanked Zhang Mai for appointing Yang Chengxun as a deputy general. Yang Chengxun also said sternly: "I will only be so trusted by the father and son, and I will die!"

Ma Xiaochun smiled and tried hard, but came to An Shenqi and said, "The Marshal has an order, An Shenqi obeys the order!"

An Shenqi quickly listened to the order, and Ma Xiaochun said loudly: "The Marshal has an order and ordered An Shenqi to take over the defense of Qinzhou west, from west of Qinzhou, east of Lanzhou, and south of Yizhou to respond to military affairs. Xu An Shenqi acted cheaply." Then he took out a horizontal knife with a golden tiger head sheathed inlaid and said: "General An, at this time, the tiger sheathed golden knife issued by the Marshal was in the above-mentioned war zone, and the lieutenant generals can be used to kill the entire army with this knife!"

Yang Guangyuan was stunned when he heard this, but An Shenqi was so excited that he almost trembled. He hugged his fists and said, "The Marshal trusts so much that he will not be able to repay you!"

His words were almost the same as Yang Chengxun, but when Yang Chengxun said this, he spoke loudly and had no sincerity. Yang Guangyuan's two words were not loud, but they were spit out from his heart. Ma Xiaochun handed over the knife and left. An Shenqi held the golden knife and said, "Nephew Chengxun, let's go!"

He took Yang Chengxun and went to select Yang Guangyuan's generals. He had many contacts with Yang Guangyuan and was close to his territory. Therefore, he knew who was good at fighting and who was loyal and brave enough to select more than ten generals of his troops. These people recommended each other's troops. In about half a day, they obtained more than 6,000 people, combined with 12,000 troops, and led their troops out of the city. Ma Jirong indeed handed over the defense of Ximen to him.

An Shenqi did not trust Yang Chengxun, but just let him stay by his side and directly control the generals.

Shortly after the army and horses left the city, they immediately responded to the situation, saying that cavalry rushed over, with nearly 10,000 people. Yang Chengxun was afraid before the battle, and was shocked: "Didn't it mean that there were only a few thousand people? Why are there so many more? Could it be... it was the Khitan supporter who arrived?"

An Shenqi was also shocked, but he thought: "Even if there are tens of thousands of cavalry in the Khitan, I should fight hard! If they are asked to rush to the city of Qinzhou, the soldiers and civilians in the city will see you, but I am afraid that Qinzhou will collapse without fighting!"

He shouted Yang Chengxun back, looked at the sand and dust. Seeing the dust layer of the enemy's left wing was scattered, he pointed at: "Attack his left wing and defeat the central army again!"

It turned out that most of the invading army were Liu Zhiyuan's men and horses, and a small part of the right wing and most of the left wing were Qinxi troops that had just surrendered. After Liu Zhiyuan was slightly aware of the slightest, he drove him to fight and made his reputation. From a distance, he had both infantry and cavalry, and his reputation was magnificent.

At this time, both sides gradually approached. An Shenqi saw the enemy clearly and shouted: "It's not the Khitan! It's not the Shu army! It's the troops of the Central Plains!"

Yang Chengxun said in surprise: "The army in the Central Plains? How could it be here? Did they fly over?"

An Shenqi murmured: "Who is Liu... King? Who is that?" As he pondered, the two sides were only three hundred steps apart. An Shenqi no longer hesitated and said: "No matter who it is, let's talk about it if it is defeated!" He took the lead and rushed straight to the enemy's left wing.

Liu Zhiyuan saw more than 10,000 troops coming from the opposite side, rushed to his left wing, especially the more than 1,000 cavalry movements were very fast, and he said in a slight shock: "Whose troops are this!"

The one who was expected to see said: "It's the name of An."

Liu Zhiyuan said: "An? Could it be An Shoujing? Or An Shoujing? Seeing his actions so quickly, my left wing is afraid that it will be bad!"

When joining the army, he suggested that he support the left wing quickly. Liu Zhiyuan said: "No! It's too late!" But he activated the vanguard and ordered Wang Junji to trap the enemy's central army!

Wang Jun rushed forward after he got the order. An Shenqi looked back and secretly praised: "I have already taken the lead in rushing to the left wing first. If the other party comes to rescue him and fails to defeat me, he will fall into chaos. This general is so decisive!"

At this time, Yang Chengxun saw the elite enemy rushing towards him and asked someone to ask An Shenqi for help. The deputy general beside An Shenqi also asked him what he should do. An Shenqi said: "No! Returning to help in the last battle is a taboo in military strategists!" He still rushed over!

At this time, Wang Jun had already threatened Tiance's central army on the battlefield, but An Shenqi had already rushed into the left wing of Shi Jin's army. Most of the left wing of Shi Jin's army were the Qinxi troops who had just surrendered. They were coerced. How much fighting intention could they have? As soon as An Shenqi rushed in, he was in chaos! It was like a random knife breaking into tofu!

On this battlefield, An Shenqi had 12,000 people, Liu Zhiyuan's men were less than 10,000 people, and the number was equal, Liu Zhiyuan was slightly weak; An Shenqi's 12,000 people were selected from the Qinxi army. Overall, the overall quality was high. Liu Zhiyuan's men were divided into two parts. The men he brought himself were through many battles, and the most elite troops under An Shenqi were more than just his. However, those who were temporarily Bulle were not enough to succeed. Not only did they help Liu Zhiyuan, but they lowered the combat effectiveness of the Jin army.

Therefore, as soon as the Wang army rushed, An Shenqi's central army could not resist Wang Jun's offensive and retreated step by step. However, what An Shenqi brought this time was a powerful brigade selected by the Qinxi army. Although he could not defeat the opponent's elite, he would not be defeated with one blow like Shi Jin's left wing.

But Wang Jun's troops are one of the ace teams in the Central Plains, how could they be Yi? After rushing into the formation group, he was like a tiger entering a wolf pack. Yang Chengxun had no intention of fighting, and when he saw it, he was shocked: "It's him! It's him! Wang Jun! Could it be that Liu Zhiyuan is here!"

After his words were heard, all the generals of Qinxi were shocked.

Yang Chengxun shouted: "The Central Plains troops came from the west. What's the matter? It's over!" He turned around and ran away regardless of everything.

Although he was restricted by An Shenqi, he still had some appeal after all. He was also the deputy general of the entire army. He ran away a while ago, and hundreds of people followed him. The central army of the Tiance Army immediately became in chaos. Wang Jun saw that the opportunity was inevitable, and even took advantage of the chaos to rob and fight!

In an instant, the battlefield 50 miles west of Qinzhou was in chaos, and the smoke and dust rolled, and the two troops fell into fierce battles at the same time! After a night of rest, Wang Jun and others were already in full strength. His subordinates were powerful brigades that could compete with any elite troops in the world. At this time, they became angry. Thousands of people rage together, and An Shenqi's rear army collapsed!

Seeing that something was wrong, An Shenqi ordered the troops to shout: "Qinzhou Army, surrender without killing, and he will be rewarded for turning against others! Surrender without killing, and he will be rewarded for turning against others!"

The Qinzhou people who were chased by him could not notice the general trend of the battlefield. They were not people who were willing to work hard for others. After hearing this, many people turned against each other and a undercurrent surged towards Liu Zhiyuan!

The battlefield is in chaos!

During the chaos, both sides had their own advantages and weaknesses. One of the two sides had collapsed, but the other had gained an absolute advantage. While Wang Jun disrupted An Shenqi's rear army, An Shenqi also drove the defeated soldiers to approach Liu Zhiyuan. The defeated soldiers retreated, but instead rushed to Liu Zhiyuan's position.

Seeing that Liu Zhiyuan was in danger, Wang Jun returned to rescue him. Liu Zhiyuan saw that he could not win completely, and felt very angry. He ordered that he no longer care about the Qin Western surrendered army and fight for all his strength to kill An Shenqi.

After all, Liu Zhiyuan's direct subordinates were extraordinary. An Shenqi's subordinates passed by a large number of people, but they were still defeated after desperate resistance. The war lasted for nearly two hours. The energy of the fight gradually weakened, and finally the advantage of the battlefield was tilted towards Liu Zhiyuan step by step.

At this moment, smoke and dust rolled in the east, and a large army arrived in three directions. Depending on the situation, there were at least 30,000 people. They surrounded them from the east, northeast, and southeast, just like a pocket, and wanted to pack all the two armies in the melee!

The military flag in the leader was written with the word "Ma"! However, it was Ma Jirong who was ordered to come to support. An Shenqi was already at a disadvantage. Seeing the support, he felt refreshed and shouted to drive the soldiers to use his life. The Qinxi army shouted to kill, and the situation on the battlefield changed again!

Wang Jun had already returned to Liu Zhiyuan's side and said, "Shuai Liu, wait for me to kill you! Even if you can't catch Zhang Mai, at least you have to find out his reality!"

Suddenly, the 30,000 troops running from the east laughed. They raised dozens of flags with long bamboo poles, and the flags were filled with the Shu army's flags!

Liu Zhiyuan was a little surprised, and saw the Tiance Army throwing all the dozens of flags forward, and then trampling on them!

When Shi Jin's army saw it, they felt nervous, and everyone had a thought: "The Shu army was defeated!"

Liu Zhiyuan looked south, and the Shu army, who had originally expected to be aid, had no movement. Looking east, more than 30,000 horses stepped on the flag of the Shu army and rushed towards him. Suddenly, he was shaken by his judgment of Zhang Mai's virtuality and reality, and shook his head and said, "No, the advantage has been lost, and his spirit has been exhausted. I can't rush through it."

"What should I do?"

"withdraw!"

Wang Jun gritted his teeth and said, "Ship Liu first, I will cut off the back!"

Liu Zhiyuan suddenly ordered someone to shout: "Who is the enemy general in An?!"

An Shenqi ordered someone to answer: "An Shenqi in Shuozhou is here!"

Liu Zhiyuan felt a stern and said, "So he is an old friend! Zhang Mai is really not simple. He can actually make An Shenqi work hard for him!"

——————————————

On a Gaogang more than ten miles away, Zhang Mai put down the Qianli Mile Mile Mile Mile, and his palms were covered with sweat. Behind him was a secular Lu Jialing, who said, "Liu Zhiyuan wanted to fight the marshal's heart-breaking battle, which was a humiliation for himself! We only used dozens of Shu army flags, which scared them out of their courage!"

Zhang Mai snorted and said, "Take your own humiliation... We have forced Liu Zhiyuan to this point... If he can go further, it is not him who brings your own humiliation, but us! We know it is him, so we can speculate on his psychological formulation of countermeasures, but until two hours ago, we didn't even know that the opponent who came to the west was Liu Zhiyuan!"

Lu Jialing was shocked and said, "I know my crime!"

Murong Chunhua on the right said, "Liu Zhiyuan would actually leave his army and fight here. That was something that no one could have thought of. Now that he has defeated, he will be able to kill him. Please decide how to kill him."

Zhang Mai pondered slightly and said, "Sell him a favor and let him go back to Weinan."

Murong Chunhua was puzzled and said, "It is easy to release a tiger, but it is difficult to capture a tiger!"

"Liu Zhiyuan two hours ago was the key to the entire battle situation, but now he is no longer important." Zhang Mai said: "And Liu Zhiyuan's troops are a strong army. It is not easy to defeat him, and it is even more difficult to destroy him! Let him go back, there is only one more defeated general in Shi Jin. On the contrary, if An Shenqi cannot destroy them, he will be even more troublesome if he turns them into pieces and turns them into guerrilla troops between Qinzhou and Lanzhou."

———————————————

The defeat was like a mountain of fall, and the Shi Jin army came with great prestige, but when they left the battlefield, there were less than 3,000 people left by Liu Zhiyuan's troops, and all the soldiers surrendered in the west of Qin were lost, and many of his elite troops were also lost.

Liu Zhiyuan fought and retreated, retreated west for a day and a night, and finally arrived at the place where he crossed the Wei River two days ago. It was already occupied by the river patrol troops of the Tiance Army. Wang Junfen and Yu Yong killed the river patrol troops and retreated, and then sent a signal. There were two or three hundred people on the opposite side of the Wei River. When he saw the signal, he quickly set off the ship.
To be continued...
