On the other side, in the Jin army's camp, Li Xiang was overjoyed when he received that Yang Jian's food and grass had been burned.
He also ordered Bai Qi and Su Lie to suspend their offensive, and ordered Li Keyong to lead the three heroes of the Ma family to hide outside the north gate and ambush them to prevent the Sui army from escaping from the north.
The reason why Li Keyong was allowed to hide with them was to prevent the Sui army from fighting to the death when all their chances of survival were cut off, and to prevent the Jin army from having an easy life even when they were about to die.
But now in Chang'an City, Yang Jian did not need them to continue the attack when he lost his food and grass. As long as the Jin army can surround Chang'an City, the Sui army will not be able to hold on for long without food, and they will soon collapse without a fight.
However, what surprised Li Xiang today was that within a few days, the city gates of Chang'an City opened wide. Just when Li Xiang thought that Yang Jian had some conspiracy, groups of ragged people left one after another. come out.
Yes, after these days of struggle, Yang Jian finally made a decision. But behind this decision, the people are still suffering.
In the end, Yang Jian still decided to deal with the immediate crisis first. After all, even if you win the hearts of the people, if you are unable and unable to cope with the crisis at hand, everything will look pale.
Fortunately, his main force was based on Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Army, and the people who left the city also had choices. Therefore, although there was an impact on the army, it was still stable.
Of course, Yang Jian's order to expel some people in Chang'an City was not issued in his own name, but in the name of Han Xian Emperor Liu Xie. He tried his best to minimize the impact of this order on himself.
In the hands of Yang Jian, the role played by Han Xian Emperor Liu Xie was really not small, and a lot of dirty work was shouldered by Han Xian Emperor Liu Xie.
In this case, although the gates of Chang'an City were wide open, Li Xiang could not launch an attack without permission. If they attack at this time, they cannot guarantee the safety of this group of people.
These are not hundreds or thousands of people, but people who are so densely packed that you can’t even see them. Afterwards, statistics showed that more than 100,000 civilians participated in the battle this time.
With so many people, if Li Xiang launched an attack at this time, the people would definitely suffer countless casualties. Li Xiang didn't want to lose the hearts and minds of the people in Guanzhong before he could completely capture Guanzhong.
What's more, if it is not necessary, Li Xiang will not lose his feathers easily.
At the same time, looking at the groups of people who were forced to leave Chang'an City, Li Xiang couldn't help but secretly complain. With so many people, he had to resettle them, he couldn't just let them fend for themselves!
However, the manpower and material resources required to house so many people are not a small amount.
Too lazy to continue dealing with these troublesome matters, Li Xiang simply handed over the resettlement of these people to Han Fei. Since Han Fei has already reached god-level political attributes, this problem will not cause much trouble to him.
As mentioned before, when Li Xiang was blocked from Tongguan, Xue Rengui had previously transported a group of prisoners of war to Li Xiang and put them into a prisoner-of-war camp to form an army to use as artillery to attack Tongguan.
The three people who originally transported this batch of prisoners of war were Han Fei, who was the governor of a county at the time, and generals Zhang Huan and Li Lang.
After these three people arrived to transport this batch of prisoners of war, Li Xiang left these three people with him. Of course, the most important thing is naturally the god-level political talent Han Fei.
It has been several years since Han Fei was born and joined Li Xiang's staff. If we say that the past few years were for him to accumulate some qualifications. So now that he is being transferred to his side, he also wants Han Fei to take the opportunity to make some contributions.
After all, Han Fei is also a god-level political talent, and he should be promoted as soon as possible so that he can better display his abilities and contribute to the development and growth of the Jin army.
Looking at this solid city, Li Xiang felt a headache.
He thought he had successfully burned Yang Jian's burning grass, and then he could wait for the enemy army to collapse. But now Yang Jian used this move, which broke Li Xiang's plan.
The food of more than 100,000 people, even if each person takes it out individually, he does not have much food, but the food of so many people is gathered together, who knows how long Yang Jian can persist with this.
Moreover, who knows if Yang Jian will still use this method the next time he runs out of food.
As if he could see Li Xiang's sorrow, the counselor Wang Meng beside him thought for a while and then slowly said to Li Xiang, "My lord, Yang Jian's move is not without flaws. Our army can continue to attack the heart." Plan!"
Li Xiang's current intelligence was not in vain. He understood what Wang Meng wanted to say with a little thought.
Since Yang Jian could do something like this once, he might not be able to do it a second time. They can start from this point and provoke other people in the city to panic about this point, thereby once again provoking civil strife in Chang'an City.
Hearing this, Li Xiang nodded slowly. Wang Meng's idea was indeed a good idea. If this incident can really be used to trigger conflicts with the people of Chang'an City, then it can definitely be said to be a good thing for attacking Chang'an at this time.
"Okay, what Jing Lue said makes sense, so let's order someone to do it immediately!" Li Xiang ordered Wang Meng.
Li Xiang hasn't let go of Su Lie's heart-attacking tactics in the past few days. Every day, different numbers of papers filled with black characters are blown into Chang'an City in the direction of the wind.
Although Yang Jian sends people to collect them every day, there are always many fish that slip through the net every day. It is impossible for him to collect all these papers.
Therefore, although the resistance of generals like Yang Lin, Zuo Tiancheng, etc. who were either confidants or die-hards remained firm, the resistance of some generals within Yang Jian's power may not be unwavering.
After all, the composition of Yang Jian's generals is not pure. There are still some generals from the Dong Zhuo period under his command. Compared with other generals, these generals are not as loyal to Yang Jian.
But now Wang Meng comes up with another attack plan, and this time it is much easier to implement. At most, he just needs to add some content to the original paper.
"In addition, let the floating house continue to operate in Chang'an City, and make sure Yang Jian doesn't have an easy time!" Li Xiang ordered the person next to him.
Although it might be dangerous for the floating house to continue operating at this time, Li Xiang didn't care too much about it. If he can really help him win the city of Chang'an as soon as possible, some sacrifices are not impossible.
