Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao led an army of 30,000 people and entered Chang'an City from the east gate unimpeded.
The two men planned to use the east gate as a foothold and divide their troops into two groups. Along the way, Zhang Liao was the main general, and under the leadership of the shadow guards, he controlled the palace, city gates and other commanding heights, leaving only the west gate to allow the bandits to escape.
The other group, led by Zhao Yun, went straight to the banquet hall of Li Jue, Guo Bang and other Xiliang generals. They should not have finished yet, and they wanted to capture the king first.
After the plan was decided, the two of them went separately, each with half of his troops, and agreed to meet at the south gate.
Li Jue, Guo Si and the others were indeed as Zhao Yun and others suspected. Not only was the banquet not over, it was actually a little more lively. Why do you say this way?
In fact, Li Jue and Guo Si were very happy today. After all, they suddenly gained such a prominent position, and it felt like they had won five million at once.
How can you not be happy, how can you not celebrate? The two of them ate and drank like nouveau riche, and soon became a little tipsy. He didn't care if he was drunk. He even took the Xiliang generals to eat and drink together. If he suddenly became rich, he would definitely show off and show off.
The Xiliang general was a little happy after drinking. From being hunted to now enjoying endless glory and wealth, this is a big leap, which is equivalent to going from hell to heaven. How can you not be happy? It feels like the rest of your life after death.
As for who you hang out with, it really doesn't matter. The important thing is to be alive now and live happily. Not to mention, they all toasted to each other, drank to each other, ate and drank, and soon became drunk, and some even passed out.
Except for Jia Xu, this guy was not in the same group as Li Jue and Guo Bang. He became the military advisor of Xiliang out of helplessness. I always want to find an opportunity to leave them and leave this place of right and wrong.
Thinking this way, I also did it. The reason why I just persuaded Zhang Ji to be patient and not to get rich was because of this. Do you really think that he will be grateful to Zhang Ji for taking him in?
These are just ways to find opportunities to escape, because among the generals of Xiliang, Jia Xu feels that Zhang Ji is the only one who has both ambition and strength and can temporarily protect himself. In troubled times, if people do not care for themselves, they will be destroyed by heaven and earth.
In troubled times, if you want to save your life, you have no choice but to rely on yourself. Therefore, Jia Xu has always been very cautious, fearing that his life might be in danger.
I had previously advised Li Jue and Guo Si not to be too arrogant. They still had to do a good job in the defense of Chang'an City, and it was not too late to celebrate. Who would have thought that these two fools would be a little complacent at this moment, feeling like I am the best in the world.
Not only did he not listen to his own opinions, he also allowed the Xiliang soldiers to have a big carnival. According to what Li Jue and Guo Si said, I will see who dares to take action under the eyes of our Xiliang army. If you are not afraid of death, come here.
They are really not afraid of death, of course they are talking about Li Jue and Guo Si. Jia Xu hated them very much because iron could not become steel, and mud could not hold up the wall. I saw them having a wild carnival and getting drunk, and I couldn't help but feel angry.
I couldn't stand it any longer, so I left the courtyard and went outside to get some air and relieve the resentment in my heart.
Zhang Ji, who had the same thoughts and feelings as him, also followed him out to get some air and express his gratitude to Jia Xu.
Zhang Ji walked out of the banquet hall and saw Jia Xu walking in the courtyard, thinking. He interrupted and said gratefully.
"Thank you so much, Master Military Advisor, for your help. Zhang Ji is very grateful. If you are asked to do anything in the future, I will never hesitate to do so." After saying this, he hugged his fists to express his gratitude.
When Jia Xu heard this, he knew it belonged to Zhang Ji. He was about to speak and signaled that he was welcome. I saw the east gate burst into flames, and the city was full of killing and shouting.
Seeing this, Zhang Ji was very surprised and asked Jia Xu what had happened and asked the military adviser for an idea.
"Military advisor, what do you think is going on? What should we do?"
Jia Xu is indeed a poisonous man. When he saw this, he knew that the enemy troops were probably entering the city. Chang'an City might not be able to be saved. It was better to escape quickly and leave this place of right and wrong.
Therefore, Jia Xu confidently analyzed Zhang Ji and said, "General Zhang, let's retreat quickly. I think Chang'an City is in danger, so we'd better leave as soon as possible. I wonder what the general's intention is?"
I didn't want to suffer from the cowardice of Li Jue and Guo Si in Chang'an City. Now seeing that Jia Xu was willing to escape with him, Zhang Ji was naturally very happy and said with great joy.
"The military advisor's words are very good. I also think it is best to leave early."
"Hahahahahaha"
"Hahahahahaha"
After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled, and the meaning was naturally self-evident.
After laughing, Zhang Ji planned to return to the camp, take his troops and horses, and run away with Jia Xu.
Jia Xu was very satisfied when he saw that Zhang Ji was a bit vigorous and resolute, but he still gave him advice and suggestions.
"General, don't leave so fast. You should inform the other generals in Xiliang, especially Li Jue and Guo Si. As landlords in Chang'an, they must show their kindness to the landlords when guests come."
Zhang Ji was a little confused when he said this. He didn't understand why he had to report it to Li Jue and Guo Si when he ran away. Shouldn’t the fewer people know about it, the better? With this thought in mind, he looked at Jia Xu with questioning eyes, looking forward to his explanation.
Seeing that Zhang Ji had some doubts, Jia Xu explained confidently, "General, you know that the enemy has entered the city now. It will not be easy for us to get out based on our strength alone. Besides, if we force ourselves out, we will lose our troops and generals." So we need others to resist for us so that we can take advantage of the chaos and leave."
Oh, that's it. The military advisor is the military advisor. He is indeed far-sighted. Zhang Ji had to admire him.
"You are a great talent, but I am not as good as me. In your opinion, I will tell Li Jue and Guo Si now."
After saying that, he hurried in to report. Jia Xu also left the mansion and waited for Zhang Ji's return at the military camp.
After Zhang Ji entered, as soon as he spoke, things exploded inside. After Li Jue and Guo Bang heard the news that the enemy troops had entered the city, they immediately didn't believe it. But when I heard shouts of killing outside, the situation was in chaos. I knew something was wrong. I just believed it and was awakened by the wine.
So regardless of what everyone else said, the two of them walked out of the room, called for the personal guards, and gathered their men to stop the enemy troops from entering the city. Zhang Ji followed behind and took the opportunity to say that he could gather his troops and resist for a while first. Li Jue and Guo Si were both suspicious and agreed without thinking.
Therefore, Zhang Ji was able to escape and went straight to his camp to join Jia Xu. They gathered their troops and prepared to flee in the chaos.
