Unknowingly, the team came to Chang'an, and Jia Xu led people to greet Chen Chu outside the city.

Then the team entered the city and was guided by Jia Xu into a large mansion with ten entrances next to the palace.

After everything was settled, Chen Chu asked Jia Xu in the inner hall about Chang'an, the emperor and Xiliang.

The next day, Chen Chu, accompanied by Jia Xudianwei, entered the palace with Budu and solemn to face the saint.

Entering from the main gate of the palace, no one asked to inspect Chen Chu, and the soldiers guarding the palace also saluted Chen Chu very respectfully, because these soldiers guarding the palace were all Chen Chu's Northern Army. Emperor Xian of Han is now not so much an emperor as a prisoner who receives the highest treatment.

After Emperor Han Xian said some nonsense according to Chen Chu's script, he sealed Budu and Su Li as the left and right Xianbei Shan Yu, divided the east and west parts of the grassland, and gave the two of them swords and armor.

Needless to say, the joy of stride and solemnity is naturally needless to say.

After facing the saint, Chen Chu sent someone to send Budu and He Suli back to the north, while Chen Chu stayed in Chang'an temporarily, and he wanted to urge to mediate the problem between Han Sui and Ma Teng.

Since Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou defected to Han Sui, Han Sui not only had tens of thousands of troops out of thin air, but also relied on the influence of these two people among the Qiang people, Han Sui expanded his army vigorously, and his military strength swelled to 100,000 in just a few months. At this time, Ma Teng's army was only more than 70,000 people. The strength of the weak is shifted.

Between Han Sui and Ma Teng, Ma Teng has always been the leader, because Ma Teng's strength occupies a dominant position in the Xiliang army. However, now that Han Sui's strength has surpassed Ma Teng's, Han Sui wants to change this situation.

Han Sui couldn't wait to send an envoy to send a letter to Ma Teng, the content of the letter is unknown, but Ma Teng angrily beheaded Han Sui's envoy on the spot after reading the letter.

Then Ma Teng sent Ma Play to lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to attack Jincheng, near Didao County was intercepted by Han Sui personally led an army of 40,000, after a big battle, Ma Play suffered heavy losses, and only more than 10,000 remnants fled back to Longxi.

Ma Teng was furious and immediately sent a letter to Ma Chao, who was in Xiliang, asking him to lead his army eastward and attack Han Sui in Jincheng. At the same time, he mobilized grain and grass, prepared his army, and was ready to go to war with Han Sui at any time.

Originally, the war between Ma Teng and Han Sui was beneficial to Chen Chu's control of Xiliang, but now this situation is not good for Chen Chu, so the Northern Army sent envoys to Jincheng and Longxi respectively as soon as they learned the news, intending to mediate.

The intervention of the Northern Army forced Ma Teng and Han Sui to temporarily suspend the war, no matter who it was, they did not dare not give Chen Chu face.

The news of the truce between the two quickly reached Chang'an, and Chen Chu, who was in Chang'an to urge the matter, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If the two insist on continuing to fight despite dissuasion, then Chen Chu will have to solve the Xiliang problem at this inopportune time, if this is the case, it will definitely do more harm than good to the Northern Army, not to mention that the repair after the Grassland War cannot be successfully completed, and the plan to contain Cao Cao will have to be stillborn, which is very unfavorable to the long-term strategy of the Northern Army.

Xiliang's problem was temporarily solved, and Chen Chu was ready to return to the state.

However, the day before Chen Chu set off, a bad news came, Xiliang Ma Chao led 20,000 elites to break through Longyou seven days ago to kill Han Sui's wife and uncle, Han Sui had personally led 60,000 troops out of Jincheng to Longyou to crusade against Ma Chao.

It turned out that although Ma Teng succumbed to Chen Chu's forces and chose to suspend the war, Ma Chao, who was proud by nature, did not take Chen Chu's mediation seriously, and continued to lead the army eastward, breaking through the weakly defended Longyou City, and killing Han Sui's wife and uncle.

Han Sui's brother-in-law was killed, how did Han Sui swallow this breath, so he immediately led an army of 60,000 out of Jincheng to avenge his uncle.

The Great War broke out again, and the efforts of the Northern Army came to naught.

Chen Chu had to terminate the scheduled itinerary and summon Jia Xu and others to the inner hall for discussion.

"Wenhe, Han Sui and Ma Teng are fighting again, is there still a way to mediate?" Chen Chu frowned and asked.

Jia Xu shook his head and said, "The current situation is a little out of control, and mediation is not very likely.

Chen Chu frowned slightly, his expression looked a little annoyed, he was indeed annoyed, Ma Teng and Han Sui were fighting at this time to make a mess for him.

Damn it! Can't two bastards start fighting again later!

"Wenhe, what do you suggest?" Chen Chu raised his head and asked.

Jia Xuan frowned, Xi habitually stroked the beautiful hair under his chin, and then said: "For today's plan, the only way to plan is to advance!"

Chen Chu was silent for a moment and said, "Executing the plan at this time won't do us much good!" "。 Chen Chu was obviously a little undecided.

Jia Xu hugged his fist at Chen Chu and said solemnly: "What the lord said is good, but if the situation is allowed to develop like this, it will be even more unfavorable to our army, and in the end, it may make our original plan impossible to implement!"

Chen Chu nodded slightly, but still didn't say anything, but asked, "What about the plan to contain Cao Cao?" If you miss this opportunity, I am afraid that it will be very difficult to deal with Cao Cao in the future! "。 Among all the characters in the Three Kingdoms, Chen Chu is most afraid of Cao Cao, a white-faced hero.

Jia Xu replied without thinking: "Both sides can be done at the same time."

Chen Chu was stunned for a moment, and then questioned: "With the current strength of our army, it is not a problem to plan on both sides at the same time, but our logistics are simply unable to support both directions at the same time due to the excessive consumption before.

Jia Xu smiled confidently, and then explained: "Concentrate forces to solve Xiliang, as for Cao Cao's ,......" Jia Xu paused, and then said lightly: "Drive the tiger and devour the wolf!"

Chen Chu didn't understand for a while, but after thinking about it for a while, he understood, and then smiled bitterly: "If I do this, I'm afraid that I will be scolded by the princes of the world afterwards!"

Jia Xu showed a look of disdain, hugged his fists at Chen Chu and said: "The lord doesn't have to take those people's opinions to heart, sooner or later they only have two ways, either to be loyal to the lord, or to turn into pulp under the iron hooves of the lord!"

Hearing this, Chen Chu smiled slightly, and couldn't help but say in his heart: This Jia Wenhe really deserves to be called a 'poisoner', he only wants to achieve his goals in doing things, and he doesn't care about other people's opinions at all.

Chen Chu thought for a while, and felt that following Jia Xu's strategy was indeed the least risky and the most profitable, so he nodded to Jia Xu and said, "Mr. Wenhe's strategy is indeed clever, but we still have to consult Gong Jin, Zijing and others for their opinions on this matter."

Jia Xu nodded, it was not surprising that Chen Chu was so cautious, after all, how the Northern Army acted this time would affect the future of the Northern Army.

After discussing with Jia Xu, Chen Chu immediately sent a flying pigeon to Bingzhou.

Two days later, a reply came. In the reply letter, Lu Su, Zhou Yu, and Xu Shu were listed respectively, and Zhou Yu and Xu Shu all agreed with Jia Xu's plan, but Lu Su felt that this plan was too risky and reckless, and it was very likely to cause adverse effects.

The attitude of the strategists was not what Chen Chu expected. Since the three important strategists who stayed in Bingzhou were two to one in favor of Jia Xu's plan, Chen Chu decided to immediately start implementing Jia Xu's plan.

Let's put down the matter in Guanzhong first and go to see the situation of Gan Ning.

In the past few months, Gan Ning has been very depressed. Gan Ning originally planned to go through Runan to Bingzhou, but when he arrived at Gepo County, which was more than 100 miles southeast of Runan, he fell ill and was very sick. His subordinates had to settle down in Gepo City and seek medical treatment everywhere. Gepo is a small county town, and because there is a war going on in Runan not far away, Gepo looks very desolate. Every day, Gan Ning had to swallow all kinds of unknown medicinal herbs that his subordinates had worked so hard to find. Amazingly, Gan Ning did not die like this, and finally miraculously recovered, but by this time several months had passed.

Leaving Ge Po, Gan Ning looked back, and his heart was full of emotion, it was really unbearable to look back!

More than 1,000 people marched north along the official road without hurry, and on the third day, when Gan Ning led his people to a deserted village, a team of men and horses suddenly rushed from a distance.

Gan Ning frowned, and immediately ordered: "Brothers, prepare for war!" More

than a thousand people immediately formed an arc formation, facing the group of people rushing over.

The group of men and horses rushed to a stop more than a hundred paces away, and they could be seen commotion from a distance.

Gan Ning casually carried the water-dividing broadsword and advanced between the two armies, held down the war horse, and looked at it carefully. I saw that there were really a lot of people in this team, there were two or three thousand people, and the leaders were two generals, but these people looked very embarrassed and frightened, like a defeated army that had lost a battle.

Gan Ning was about to speak, but one of the leading generals on the other side shouted first: "If you want to live, get out of the way!"

Gan Ning was stunned for a moment, then snorted and scolded: "What kind of thing are you?" Dare to be arrogant with your grandfather? When

the general heard this, he was furious, picked up a spear and rushed towards Gan Ning.

"I'll play with you!" Immediately, Gan Ning also rode out of the horse, but the water knife was still carried on his shoulders at will, and the horse speed was also very slow.

The general was even more angry, shouting as he ran: "How dare you look down on me!" Watch me take your head!

In the blink of an eye, the general rushed to Gan Ning's side, roaring and stabbing a spear at Gan Ning's neck, it seemed that he really wanted to take Gan Ning's head.

As the spear stabbed out, the general's face showed excitement, as if he had seen Gan Ning's head in a different place.

However, when the spear was still half a foot away from Gan Ning, it suddenly stopped, and it turned out that his spear had already been held in Gan Ning's hand.

The general was stunned and didn't react for a moment.

Gan Ning glanced at his eyes and sneered: "With your little ability, you still want to take Grandpa's head?" After

saying that, the water-dividing broadsword on his right shoulder suddenly slashed out, blood burst out, and a head rose to the sky.

Gan Ning stepped forward with his left hand and caught the bloody human head in mid-air. At this time, the expression of this human head was all incredulous, and it seemed that he had died in an unknown way.

When the soldiers on the general's side saw this, they immediately became agitated, and everyone's faces showed a look of horror.

Gan Ning ignored the other party's reaction, put the head in front of his eyes, and said in a regretful tone to the face of the dead man: "It's a pity! In the end, I took off your head! "
