In Chen Kaizhi's view, Su Ye, who escaped from Xiliang, only his identity can be known as a key figure. Moreover, he came with his family, and it seems that he was determined to betray Xiliang.

"Immediately invite Scholar Su to come and pass the order, and the three armies will temporarily rest for one day, and order the vanguard battalion not to make a rash progress."

Four hours later, a team of knights arrived at the central army in a carriage.

The person who got off the carriage was an old man with a half-white hair. He seemed to be unable to adapt to the external sunshine. He subconsciously closed his eyes with his hands, but he had already seen Chen Kaizhi welcomed him quickly.

Su Ye looked at Chen Kaizhi up and down, and saw that he was wearing golden armor, he knew Chen Kaizhi's identity in his heart. He hurriedly bowed: "My minister Su Ye, I have seen Your Majesty."

Chen Kaizhi only smiled at him: "Su Qing doesn't have to be polite, please."

Su Ye was invited to pay the bill, Chen Kaizhi sat down, and ordered someone to give Su Ye a seat. Su Ye bowed his body and sat down, then sighed: "Hey, I... I am a minister who rebels the Lord, and I am really ashamed."

Infidelity is a very serious matter in this era, so although Su Ye betrayed Xiliang this time, he came here and saw Chen Kaizhi's first words, which was ashamed.

Chen Kaizhi said: "Mr. Su's move is a great righteousness. However, Mr. Su and his family came, but he didn't know why?"

Su Ye sighed: "The old minister was in Xiliang and served the emperor of Xiliang for several generations. When the national magistrate took power, I had already entered the cabinet, but I dared not do anything. I was full of thought to protect myself. It was both ashamed and embarrassing. Over the years, the old minister, the cabinet scholar, has become a puppet. I originally thought that as long as I waited patiently, the national magistrate would suffer sooner or later, but who knew that the national magistrate made a decision without authorization and colluded with the Hu people, and even ordered the emperor of Xiliang to worship the Hu people as his father and call himself a son minister."

Speaking of this, Su Ye was completely dismayed: "At this time, this war is about to begin. Can the old minister stay in Xiliang? I am an old minister of Xiliang and a Han minister. The Han ministers have nothing to do with the barbarians. Therefore, they took the opportunity to escape east overnight with the help of some disciples and officials. This time, they came to see Your Majesty, not to have a high position. One was to spend their old age and refuse to join the barbarians. The other was to come to report to Your Majesty secretly and be careful behind you."

"Behind?" Chen Kaizhi stared at Su Ye.

He could empathize with Su Ye's emotions.

It is human nature to protect yourself, and seek profit and avoid harm is also an instinct. Therefore, the national teacher of Xiliang was in chaos. He did not dare to be the first to be a leader, pretending to be a grandson, and expecting to waste it slowly. But now it is different. Now it is a big deal. Xiliang is going to join forces with the barbarians. If he, a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, still stayed in Xiliang, he would have become a sinner for the ages.

Therefore, he simply gave up everything and was unwilling to follow the Emperor Xiliang and the National Master to be the son of the Hu people. He gritted his teeth and ran away.

Such people do not have the courage to fight against the darkness, but they still know the great fortune and what big things are.

Su Ye said seriously: "The old minister also knew some secrets in the Western Liang Dynasty. Although the national teacher cooperated with the Hu people and did not want to inform the old ministers for many things, the old ministers had some channels to learn the secrets. As far as the old ministers knew, the Hu people had always had secret envoys to discuss secrets with various countries. Their purpose was to lead His Majesty and then... colluded with various countries to attack Da Chen in the name of protecting Da Chen."

Chen Kaizhi frowned: "I know a little about this."

Su Ye then looked at Chen Kaizhi seriously: "But... the Hu people also know that countries may not dare to act rashly unless... all countries can know the exact news."

"The exact news?" Chen Kaizhi asked.

Su Ye said: "For example, if Your Majesty sent troops, the Hu people cut off His Majesty's retreat from behind, and then, they released news that His Majesty's army had been defeated?"

Chen Kaizhi suddenly realized that this was a poisonous plan.

When the army is out of the gate, the communication channels must be unsmooth, especially the Hu people have a large number of Rangers, and the Hu people plan to make a time difference to release the news of the defeat of the Western Expedition Army.

And what will happen once countries within the pass believe this news?

At this time, they realized that Da Chen would perish and that the Hu people entered the pass may only be in an instant.

Of course, they would raise an army without hesitation and immediately embezzle the territory of Da Chen. One way is to annex Da Chen and strengthen themselves, and the other way is to prevent the Hu people from entering Da Chen's territory.

And Chen Kaizhi... was like being trapped in a situation of being attacked from both sides. Once countries attacked the prefectures of Chen, it would inevitably lead to a complete cut off of his own supplies, and the Western Expedition Army became an isolated army...

Chen Kaizhi sneered: "Among the Hu people, are there such resourceful people?"

Su Ye sighed: "As far as the old minister knows, it is the Han people who offer this wonderful strategy."

Chen Kaizhi narrowed his eyes and refused to comment.

Su Ye was anxious: "Please take this opportunity to return immediately. Never let the Hu people take advantage of the opportunity. The decisive battle with the Hu people is small, but once they are attacked from both sides, they will be attacked by the Hu people."

Chen Kaizhi smiled and shook his head: "Since I have left the gate, I have to fight the Hu people to the death. I will never return until I defeated Loulan!"

Su Ye said: "Then... Your Majesty is not worried..."

Chen Kaizhi stared at Su Ye: "After I have left the pass, I have already made a plan to make a desperate move. In Luoyang and Jibei, there are new troops and warrior camps left behind. I am not worried. Even if the other prefectures are temporarily occupied by the six countries, it will be just a temporary moment. I don't care about this prefecture and one county. The most important thing is to destroy Hu. As Mr. Su said, since the Hu people want to surround my retreat, they will inevitably station heavy troops around me. So, if I wait for them to cut off my army and horses, I will take the opportunity to launch a fierce attack on them, what will happen?"

Su Ye was silent for a moment: "The biggest plan of the Hu people is to cut off the connection between Your Majesty and the inner city. Only in this way can the countries in the inner city believe that Your Majesty, who has no news, has been completely defeated. Therefore... Once Your Majesty attacks the surrounding Hu people, the main force of the Hu people will definitely come to intercept them."

Chen Kaizhi laughed: "That's it, the decisive battle I have been dreaming of for a long time..."

Chen Kaizhi opened his eyes and then ordered sternly: "Get the map."

Immediately, a military officer spread out the map. Chen Kaizhi pressed his sword and quickly walked to the map. His eyes were on the map. Finally, his eyes were fixed at his rear. Then, he pointed at a lake near: "No surprise, the place for the decisive battle is here. Since the Hu people are going to dispatch a large army, so many people must be close to the water source. This radius of hundreds of miles is the only place that is most suitable for garrisoning heavy troops. Then, if I continue to advance and return suddenly after approaching Tianshui, I can encounter Helian Dasong tribe who intercepted me. Once I attack Helian Dasong tribe, the Hu people and the main forces of Xiliang will come to help. In this way, it is time for a decisive battle."
