Yang Xuangan did not wait for Wei Wensheng's messenger, but waited for the urgent report from his uncle Yang Shen, the Marquis of Yi'an.

On the 29th, Zhou Fashang began to attack Luokou, threatened Hulao, and joined forces with Dong Chun, the governor of Pengcheng, and Yang Qing, the prefect of Xingyang, to surround the rebels in Xingyang. At the same time, Wu Benlang of the navy led his army to attack Luokoucang. Once Luokoucang fell, the two battlefields of Dongdu and Xingyang were divided and surrounded, and Han Shiyan and Gu Jue on the Xingyang battlefield would be wiped out.

Yang Shen made suggestions to Yang Xuangan, decisively abandoning the Xingyang battlefield and urgently withdrawing Han Shiyan and Gu Jue. This can not only effectively block Zhou Fashang in Luokoucang, but also increase the troops on the battlefield of Dongdu, stabilize the situation in Dongdu, and also give Yang Xuangan strong support to the decisive battle on the Mianchi line.

Yang Xuangan's committee will not be decided.

Hu Shidan supported Yang Shen's suggestion. At present, the main function of the Dongdu battlefield and the Xingyang battlefield is to restrain the opponent and help the army to enter Guanzhong as quickly as possible. Now the decisive battle in Mianchi is about to end. Next, the army will make great strides westward. As long as the army breaks through Tongguan, the Dongdu battlefield and Xingyang battlefield will give up. From the current situation, it is speculated that the army will soon be able to break through Tongguan, for up to ten days and half a month. Since this is the case, it is desirable to take the initiative to abandon the Xingyang battlefield. On the first hand, Han Shiyan and Gu Jue on the Xingyang battlefield can be avoided being divided and surrounded by Zhou Fashang and other reinforcements of the Weifu Mansion and defeated them one by one. On the second, after Han Shiyan and Gu Jue retreated to Dongdu, the Dongdu troops increased greatly. Not only did they have their own safety guarantees, but they also greatly enhanced the Dongdu battlefield's reins. This is more beneficial than disadvantages for the entire situation.

Li Mi held an objection. He insisted that Zhou Fashang wanted to "fishermen benefit" and watched the Guanlong people's killing each other coldly. The navy would not enter the Dongdu battlefield too early. However, once Han Shiyan and Gu Jue gave up the Xingyang battlefield and retreated to Dongdu, Zhou Fashang had no reason to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight. After the Tongji Canal was unblocked, the transportation of the entire North and South Grand Canal was restored. King Yang Nan of Qi and Dong Chun of Pengcheng left behind. In this way, all reinforcements poured into the Dongdu battlefield. At that time, the Dongdu battlefield would definitely not be able to defend. What's more serious is that the opponents caught up in the shortest time. If Yang Xuangan failed to successfully break through Tongguan in such a short time, wouldn't the army be surrounded and could not fly?

"Based on your deduction, Han Shiyan and Gu Jue are most likely to be buried in Xingyang." Hu Shitan raised questions.

"Of course." Li Mi said without hesitation, "The possibility of them breaking out of the siege is very small, but we must take this risk. I just ask you one thing, if Han Shiyan and Gu Jue evacuated Xingyang too early, Zhou Fashang's navy, Dong Chun's Xuzhou army and Xunwang Yangqing's Xingyang army were killed too early to the Dongdu city, which led to Cui Hongsheng and Chen Len having to cross the river and enter the Dongdu battlefield quickly, resulting in the fact that the overall situation was settled, which led to the whole situation being one-sided. Do we have the ability and confidence to reverse the crisis?"

Yang Xuangan had no expression on his face. Mr. Hu was speechless and did not dare to stick to his own opinions.

Li Mi's analysis is very correct. The role of the Xingyang battlefield seems to be limited, but in fact it will affect the whole body. The key is Zhou Fashang. Zhou Fashang was moved. The navy was the first to enter the Dongdu capital. The Jiangzuo man loyal to the Holy Lord turned the tide. So what should we do if there is no choice but to follow up quickly, otherwise we will be politically liquidated in the future. In this way, reinforcements swarmed into the Dongdu battlefield, and fought with Yang Tong, the King of Yue in the imperial city, and attacked inside and outside. Even if Yang Shen, Wang Zhongbo and others on the Dongdu battlefield resisted, they would suffer heavy losses. After they suffered heavy losses, can they still withdraw safely? Take a step back, even if they withdraw, they will meet Yang Xuangan and break through Tongguan and enter Guanzhong. But how much strength does Yang Xuangan still have? Can he still conquer Xijing and sweep Guanlong?

Yang Xuangan did not dare to take risks. He had already fallen into a big fall in the Mianchi battlefield. Yang Xuanting and five or six thousand soldiers have not yet known their life and death. If he falls into a big fall in the Dongdu battlefield, the future will be very bleak. In fact, no matter whether Li Mi's analysis is correct, whether Zhou Fashang is "voluntarily" controlled by the Xingyang battlefield, Yang Xuangan cannot take the initiative to give up the Xingyang battlefield, and cannot order them to evacuate quickly because they want to ensure the safety of the two armies of Han Shiyan and Gu Jue. Yang Xuangan

We must make up our minds. Even though we know that they will be wiped out, even if we know that more than 10,000 soldiers will be buried in the Xingyang battlefield, we will do whatever we can. Their sacrifice must be valuable. Even if Li Mi's analysis is wrong and Zhou Fashang actively attacks Dongdu, but Han Shiyan and Gu Jue's restraint on the Xingyang battlefield will definitely delay the attack speed of the navy. This will help the tens of thousands of troops on the Dongdu battlefield to escape and Yang Xuangan break through Tongguan and break into Guanzhong.

There is another key reason. Li Mi did not say it, Hu Shidan did not say it, but Yang Xuangan knew it well, that was Li Fengyun and the alliance army. Judging from the current situation, due to the sudden change in the battle situation, Yang Xuangan no longer had the strength or conditions to eat Li Fengyun, and Li Fengyun could not give Yang Xuangan any chance to "take action". Therefore, Li Fengyun would definitely quickly evacuate the Mianchi battlefield, quickly evacuate the Dongdu battlefield, and go straight to Xingyang. At this time, Zhou Fashang became the biggest obstacle for Li Fengyun to "go east". For his own interests, Li Fengyun must have to be with Han Shiyan and Gu Juelian on the Xingyang battlefield in his own interests.

Attack Zhou Fashang by hand, the navy will not be able to reach the Dongdu battlefield for the time being. On the contrary, if Yang Xuangan had given up the Xingyang battlefield and Han Shiyan and Gu Jue had evacuated quickly, Li Fengyun would choose to go east to Xingyang and fight to the death with Zhou Fashang? Obviously not. He saw that the road to Xingyang east was cut off, so he would definitely choose to go south to Yuzhou. This was not a slight loss for Li Fengyun. He was originally a bandit and fought wherever he ran, but for Yang Xuangan, he had lost a great opportunity to use Li Fengyun to block Zhou Fashang, strengthen the connection and production of the Xingyang battlefield, and help him win more precious time.

Hu Shidan refused to mention Li Fengyun because he still had the idea of ​​"eating" Li Fengyun. After all, there was no suspense in the victory of this decisive battle, and the Xijing army was already in the pocket. Yang Xuangan only had to collect the prisoners, and his losses were made up, and his strength increased instead of decreasing. Then Yang Xuangan used the power of victory, coupled with the natural danger of Hangu Pass, and the tens of thousands of troops in the East Capital, which was enough to surround Li Fengyun and the alliance army. By then, even if Li Fengyun did not surrender, how could the local thieves under his command resist the threat of death and the temptation of high-ranking officials and generous salaries? Of course, the risks were also very great. A mistake would lead to eternal regret, so Hu Shidan did not dare to speak at will, so as not to affect Yang Xuangan's decision.

Li Mi refused to mention Li Fengyun because he knew that since Yang Xuangan had already had murderous intent on Li Fengyun, he would certainly not give up easily. Besides, Hu Shidan, Yang Jishan and others also had the same idea. In addition, the situation was indeed very unfavorable to Li Fengyun, so he could only tactfully persuade Yang Xuangan that he must be cautious, and that it would be beneficial to both parties. This is the case for the decisive battle in Mianchi, and the subsequent Xingyang battlefield is the same. Why are they too anxious to fight each other?

At midnight, Xiaoxin Ancheng was silent. The soldiers on both sides seemed to be too tired and fell asleep. Except for the bonfire swaying in the wind and the flickering fires reflected in the night sky, the rest were submerged in the endless darkness.

Yang Xuangan was eager to see and hoped that the Xijing army would send negotiators to prove that Yang Xuanting was still alive, but as time passed, he became more and more afraid and more sad and angry. In the end, he was desperate and had to face the reality. Yang Xuanting was dead and his entire army was wiped out. This means that tomorrow's battle will be very tragic. He wants to take revenge. He wants to kill Wei Wensheng, Mingya, Wei Jin, Du Yan and all the generals of the Xijing army. Their hands are covered with Yang's blood. He wants to use their heads to pay tribute to his father and brothers.

Since it was a tragic battle, Yang Xuangan himself was also scarred after this battle. Then Yang Xuangan had to make a choice and continue to maintain cooperation with Li Fengyun. He had to sacrifice the lives of Han Shiyan, Gu Jue and more than 10,000 soldiers to defend the battlefield in Xingyang. Otherwise, he would eat Wei Wensheng and then "cross" with Li Fengyun, which might be a disaster.

Yang Xuangan made a decisive decision and told Yi'an Hou Yang Shen that Han Shiyan and Gu Jue must stick to the Xingyang battlefield, and Yang Shen must provide them with support. In order to strengthen Yang Shen's confidence, he told the truth that Li Fengyun was about to rush to the Xingyang battlefield. As long as Li Fengyun enters the Xingyang battlefield and joins forces with Han Shiyan and Gu Jue, it will definitely block and delay Zhou Fashang's entry into the Dongdu battlefield, which is obviously conducive to Yang Shen's persistence in the Dongdu battlefield.

Yang Xuangan also urgently wrote to Han Shiyan and Gu Jue, first telling that the decisive battle in Mianchi is coming to an end and the road to Guanzhong is about to open. However, before the main force breaks through Tongguan, it must stick to the Dongdu battlefield. If you want to rely on the Dongdu battlefield to drag down the reinforcements of various guards from all directions, you must stick to the Xingyang battlefield. As for the Liyang battlefield, since the navy blocked the Dahe waterway, Yang Xuangan has no hope and has completely given up. Then he talked about Li Fengyun. Li Fengyun wanted to "escape" from the Dongdu battlefield through Xingyang. This not only helped Han Shiyan and Gu Jue to defend the Xingyang battlefield, but also helped Han Shiyan and Gu Jue to evacuate the Xingyang battlefield after completing their mission.

Yang Xuangan did not ask Han Shiye and Gu Jue to withdraw from Dongdu in the last part of the order, which is worth thinking about.

Hu Shidan wrote this order himself. After writing it, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly. He understood Yang Xuangan's meaning and Yang Xuangan's difficulties. However, bowing to Li Fengyun, a "territorial thief", was a great humiliation.
