A hundred miles east of Jin City.
Han Sui and Ma Teng each gathered 40,000 men and 80,000 soldiers. They camped here and waited for news from Chang 'an.
A portion of these 80,000 cavalry were Qiang people.
Today, after Han Sui read the news from Chang 'an, he immediately sent someone to invite Ma Teng.
Ma Teng did not come alone this time. He even brought a mighty young man.
A hint of fear flashed across Han Sui's eyes, but he quickly concealed it and replaced it with joy.
"Hahaha, Meng Qi is here too. That's great. I'm even more confident in this battle.”
Ma Teng sat down, and Ma Chao bowed to Han Sui." Ma Chao greets Uncle Han!”
"No need to be so polite. Sit down."
Han Sui smiled warmly.
Therefore, Ma Chao sat below Ma Teng.
"Wenyue," Ma Teng asked,"judging from your expression, there's news from Chang 'an."”
Han Sui nodded.
"That's right! Zhong Shao sent a letter saying that Wang Yun and Xiao Dong had a big fight inside and outside Chang 'an. Both sides suffered heavy losses. In the end, Wang Yun committed suicide in front of the palace gate and Lu Bu fled to Wuguan.”
"Little Dong has lost tens of thousands of soldiers. Shou Cheng, our chance has come!”
Ma Teng smiled." This is indeed our chance, but is it only Zhong Shao's letter?"”
"Is Shou Cheng suspicious?"
Han Sui's smile disappeared, and he handed the letter to Ma Teng as he continued to speak.
"It was written in the letter that Dong Luo had massacred nearly a hundred families in Chang 'an. After that, he had even placed a heavy army on the entire Chang' an. Presumably, he had sealed off the news that he was already weak.”
"If we really give him time to recover, it won't be so easy for us later.”
Ma Teng read Zhong Shao's letter carefully." That's not strange!”
Han Sui's face flashed with excitement." Shoucheng, we will go into battle lightly with 80,000 cavalrymen. We will not attack any counties along the way and will go straight to Chang 'an. How about that?"”
"Sure!" Ma Teng agreed with this suggestion.
As long as they took down Chang 'an, they would have everything they wanted.
"Hahaha, at that time, Guanzhong will be the foundation of our hegemony!”Han Sui laughed.
His heart turned cold.
Two tigers could not live on the same mountain. After they took Chang 'an, they would have to find a way to solve Ma Teng's problem.
Ma Teng put down the letter in his hand." Then when do we leave?”
"Tonight!" As Han Sui spoke, he looked at Ma Chao." What do you think, Meng Qi?”
Ma Chao immediately said," It's up to Father and Uncle to decide.”
"Speed is the most important thing in war!" Ma Teng agreed." Then we'll leave tonight."”
……
At the same time, in Chang 'an.
After the chaos that day, everything had returned to normal.
It was just that when it was time for the court, the originally full number of officials became much sparser.
Every time he saw such a court session, Liu Xie's heart would be filled with sorrow.
However, he could not show it. He just sat on the throne and watched the person in front of him preside over the government.
Finally, after some symbolic things were done.
Dong Luo stood up slowly.
The atmosphere in the royal court immediately became heavy.
Even Liu Xie swallowed his saliva quietly, his eyes revealing a look of panic.
Dong Luo took two steps on the steps and then faced Liu Xie.
"Han Sui of Western Liang rebelled when he was still the Spirit Emperor and has been wreaking havoc for several years now. I, the Prime Minister, wish to wipe him out in one fell swoop.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was shocked.
Again!
Last time, you said the same thing. You were going to pacify the rebel army in Beidi County. In the end, you lured Wang Yun and the others into rebellion.
Now, he wanted to use the same trick again?
Who do you want to lure out and kill?
Not only did the officials think so, Liu Xie also thought so.
Dong Luo listened to the movements of the officials behind him, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
He was quite satisfied with the result.
If not, why would he need to ask Liu Xie for instructions?
"Prime Minister, didn't Han Sui receive amnesty from the Imperial Court?”
Dong Luo let out a long sigh. He looked at Liu Xie and said earnestly," Your Majesty, he is indeed ambitious. Even if he is offered amnesty by the imperial court, it cannot cover up the fact that he rebelled.”
"In the current situation, they are even splitting up Liangzhou. When have they ever taken the Imperial Court seriously? Your Majesty, please allow me to send troops."
You're also talking about yourself!
Liu Xie roared in his heart. How many more loyal officials do you want to kill?
However, when he met Dong Luo's gaze, he was instantly shocked and almost jumped up from the throne.
"Correct! I agree. Han Sui is a traitor! They should have been killed long ago."
When Dong Luo heard this, he immediately pretended to bow." I will not fail my mission. I will return to court with victory!”
After the matter was settled, all the officials withdrew from court.
When Dong Luo walked out, he remembered that it might take some time for the expedition.
Halfway through, he suddenly turned a corner and headed towards Ye Ting Palace.
Li Ru saw this from behind and shook his head helplessly. Then, he signaled Dong Min to follow Dong Luo. He still needed to prepare for the expedition against Han Sui and Ma Teng.
He didn't need to say anything, Dong Min had already made the arrangements.
Ye Ting Palace, Fu Shou's residence.
At this moment, she was in a daze. Suddenly, she saw Dong Luo walking in from outside and was instantly startled.
" Why are you here again?!"
Dong Luo approached and grabbed Fu Shou." Why? I'm a lecher!"
After that, Dong Luo only returned to the Prime Minister's Estate when it was almost 11:00 p. m.
All the generals in Chang 'an were already waiting for Dong Luo.
He had long since made preparations for the war.
