Is the dialect of Mandarin Chinese that is spoken in Beijing the same as or similar to the one spoken in Xian?

I am traveling to both cities and am hoping that if I buy and study a Mandarin phrase book, that will help me to be able to communicate in both cities. However, I recognize that Mandarin Chinese has many dialects. Does anybody have any practical advice here?
