In June of the first year of the True Dragon, Taiyuan is generally not much different from the summers in previous years.

As usual, the sky was clear, the sky was cloudless, the fireball-like sun hung high, and the streets were scorching like fire, and the heat waves on the ground were blowing, making people feel upset and sweating.

People in the Beidu Taiyuan City, which has been the most important city in the north of the Tang Dynasty for many years, were shocked by the situation of drastic changes. In recent years, the border turmoil, especially in the eastern district of Hebei, the land of Daibei almost became the world of the Hu people. Fortunately, Zheng Congxian served in Hedong for two consecutive terms and comforted Hedong. It was he who ended the turmoil in Hedong during Shatu's first anti-Tang Dynasty and ended the domineering of the military leaders of Taiyuan Town. With a group of talented and wise men who were transferred from Chang'an, he returned the peace of Hedong, and even made Hedong Town a small court. However, in the end, Zheng Congxian was forced to hand over Hedong Town to the hands of the Shatu people. In this era, Zheng Congxian had a strong character, but no matter how strong his character was, he could not turn the tide.

The people of Beidu, who had just passed a few years of peaceful life, began to be in turmoil again.

After Li Keyong entered Taiyuan, he had various additional levies and levies, which made the lives of the people go back a few years ago. One by one, he dared not speak out against these crow soldiers. Many people cursed Li Keyong behind his back in his house, but not long after, Feihuzi actually died in Bianliang. Not long after this shocking news was returned, Li Kexiu, the left-behind Hedong, began to recruit soldiers and civilians to join forces with Hezhong, Heyang, Zhaoyi and other towns to go south to attack Zhu Wen. For a time, he was forced to recruit strong men and extra money and grain. The northern capital Taiyuan City was in chaos and chaos.

The first 20,000 troops to attack Zhu Wen had just moved south, but Li Jing had already commanded the Qin army to wipe out the only remaining two places in Hebei, Chengde and Weibo, towns and ten prefectures.

This was not only a surprise that exceeded the Qin army's expectations before the war, but also a horror that was beyond the expectations of other vassal states.

At that time, the Yang brothers were willing to agree to Li Jing's conditions and eventually abandoned and sold the second towns in Hebei. Firstly, it was because the second towns in Hebei had always been unreliable and rebelled against Wuchang, and it was difficult to truly interfere in the affairs of the second towns. Secondly, it was the Yang brothers' judgment that even if Li Jing conquers the second towns in the south. With the strength and situation of the second towns, if the attack is turned into defense, then if not for three or five years, it would still be able to hold on for at least one or two years. With this time, they had already slaughtered and annexed Zhu Wen, a fat pig, or even settled Chengdu. At that time, when looking back, the second towns in Hebei could only rely more on them. From then on, Chang'an could openly and righteously intervene in the second towns, and take the second towns into control. Then they came to fight against Li Jing.

But no one could have imagined that there were dozens of counties in Hebei, with a place of victory and guarding. As a result, the battle was completely destroyed after less than a month of fighting. They even had not even fought a slightly stronger battle before they were destroyed. Not to mention the heavy damage to the Qin army, they could not even consume a single star. The Qin army pacified the two feudals and had almost no damage.

Li Jing was extremely happy these days. After making up his mind to seize the great opportunity to attack Hedong, Li Jing personally set the tone of this battle: Blitzkrieg.

Since they are going to fight, then defeat them like lightning before they come back to their senses.

Therefore, Li Jing issued a new military order in Xuanhua that day, and transferred four-star general Lin Wei to lead 30,000 troops to become the commander of the Left Army and quickly rushed to Shuozhou. He gathered some soldiers and border guards in Yunshuo, Shanxi, and had a total of 30,000 troops to attack Shuozhou and Lanzhou border Loufan, attacked Lanzhou and Shizhou in the northwest of Taiyuan. The troops forced the west of Taiyuan and besieged the west of Taiyuan. At the same time, the Yellow River and intercepted the rescue of the vassal states such as Baoda, Dingnan, Tiande, and Zhenwu, which could be rescued by the vassal states such as Yunshuo, and at any time, the troops approached the northern part of Hezhong Town, and threatened the Hezhong Town at any time to restrain the troops and horses in Hezhong Town.

Later, Li Jing, as the seven-star marshal, personally took the post of marshal of the middle lane, led 50,000 guards from Xuanhua to Xinzhou north of Taiyuan along Qinwang Avenue, and went out of Chitang Pass to attack Tianmen Pass, the northern gate of Taiyuan, and directly attacked Taiyuan.

Zhou Dewei, who is currently resting in Zhenzhou, was appointed as the four-star general, and he was appointed as the commander of the Right Army. He led the southern expedition troops that had just pacified the second town of Hebei to control the land of Xinde Eight Prefectures, and transferred 50,000 elite troops from Zhenzhou to attack Jingxing, crossed the Taihang Mountains from Jingxing, and went straight to the east of Taiyuan.

Finally, Li Jing was promoted to the three-star lieutenant general Guo Chongtao, who had just shined in the southern expedition, as a four-star general, and led him to lead 30,000 troops from Weizhou, Xiangzhou, Beizhou and other places in the former Weibo to Xingzhou, east of the Taihang Mountains of Zhaoyi Town, to make a threatening situation to prevent Zhaoyi Town from sending troops to support Hedong Town. At the same time, the Yellow Sea Fleet was also transferred to send naval troops and marines to directly drive into the southern Yellow River of Heyang Town, and restrain Heyang Town.

If you don’t move, you will be like thunder.

Several large armies were moving together, among which the main force of the attack was Li Jing's middle and Zhou Dewei's right. Lin Wei and Guo Chongtao were both responsible for restraining other towns.

At the same time, other parts of the Central Plains were also made into a pot of porridge.

Zhu Wen of Bianzhou was so sad that he killed Li Keyong. The 20,000 Hedong Army did not swallow it. Instead, he was knocked down and began to shrink into the city to show weakness. On the other hand, he secretly mobilized the troops of the provinces to encircle and suppress the elite forces of Hedong. As a result, as soon as Zhu Wen took action, the two forces including Yang Fuguang and Qin Zongquan took action at the same time. Yang Fuguang first attacked Shaanxi Guo, killed Zhu Wen's second brother Zhu Cun, seized Shaanxi Guo, and then attacked with his brother Yang Fuguang and attacked Jin Shang again. Although the Bian generals were in charge of Wuguan, they were ultimately unable to defeat the carefully planned raid. In addition, a group of troops were ordered to go to Bianzhou, and the territory of Zhuzhou in Jin Shang Town was successively captured by the Yang brothers.

At this time, Qin Zongquan also received secret support from Li Jing and rushed into Shannan. The states in the northern part of Shannan controlled by Zhu Wen were also lost one after another. Then Qin Zongquan and Shannan Jiedushi Liu Jurong started a big battle in Xiangyang.

At this time, Tian Lingzi's rescue of Zhu Wen was finally late. Yang Shili, the governor of Shannan West Road, led 50,000 troops to fight out of Xingyuan and fought with Yang Fuguang's brothers on the Hanshui River. Because Yang Shili was one step late, the Liang army of Jin Shang was defeated, and the important town of Wuguan had fallen into the hands of the Yang brothers. Xingyuan army came from afar, exhausted, and was ambushed by Yang Fuguang halfway. Attacked in the middle of the night, Yang Shili was defeated.

Yang Shili was captured in the melee, and Yang Fuguang personally met Yang Shili. He lured him for profit and made him famous. With all kinds of methods, Yang Shili, one of the commanders of Sanchuan Town, turned to Yang Fuguang. Yang Fuguang also reflected his ruthlessness and did not doubt people. He directly appointed Yang Shili as the King of Shu and the governor of Sanchuan. He served as the governor of Sanchuan Town, and asked him to continue to lead his troops back and turn around to attack Tian Lingzi.

Yang Xingmi, who was in Huaixi, was also unwilling to be lonely. While sending troops to Eyue provinces, he began to connect with Lu Yongzhi from Yangzhou.

Lu Yongzhi now almost completely controlled Huainan Town, which was left in Yangzhou, and almost framed and plotted against the powerful generals under Gao Pian.

The conflict between Huainan general Yu Gongchu and Yao Guili and Lu Yongzhi became increasingly intensified. They were envoys of the left and right army, holding an elite force in their hands. Yao Guili often criticized Lu Yongzhi's crimes in person. He even wanted to kill him in person several times. He took advantage of Lu Yongzhi drinking with his accomplices and sent his subordinates to sneak into the brothel to storm. After creating chaos, he killed several people who looked very similar. Unfortunately, Lu Yongzhi brought several people with similar looks around, and changed clothes with his subordinates in the chaos. After escaping, Lu Yongzhi immediately sent Chazi to investigate and found that it was Yao Guili's subordinates who were assassinating. Originally, Yao Guili and Yu Gongchu were friends and in-laws. And Lu Yongzhi was in charge.

It was recommended to Gao Pian by Yu Gongchu. In the past, Lu Yongzhi was still thinking about some old feelings, but after this conflict, there was no match for them. So Lu Yongzhi told Gao Pian bad things about these two people from morning to night. Not long after, Gao Pian asked Yao Guili, and Yu Gongchu led 3,000 troops to Shenxian County to suppress the rebellion. Lu Yongzhi immediately sent a secret message to Yang Xingmi: "Yao Guili, Yu Gongchu is trying to attack your Luzhou." Yang Xingmi immediately sent troops to suddenly attack the two people. Yao Guili, Yu Gongchu, was unprepared and was attacked by Yang Xingmi. Then he reported to Gao Pian that the two people were rebellious. Gao Pian did not know that it was Lu Yongzhi's conspiracy, and gave Yang Xingmi a generous reward.

After killing the two, Lu Yongzhi became more and more rampant. Huainan general Bi Shiduo was originally one of Gao Xianzhi's ten divisions. Later, Gao Xianzhi died and was captured by Huang Chao and fought with Gao Pian. He surrendered to Gao Pian. He has made many military achievements over the years, but because he was a thief, he was never worthy of use. He had a beautiful concubine and was very beautiful. When Lu Yongzhi heard this, he asked Bi Shiduo for help. Bi Shiduo refused, and Lu Yongzhi secretly hated him. One day, Lu Yongzhi deliberately transferred Bi Shiduo, and then with his subordinates, he forcibly broke into Bi Shiduo's mansion, and humiliated him with his subordinates' wives and concubines, and took turns to humiliate him.

After Bi Shiduo came back, he was extremely angry and stabbed his insulted wife and concubine to death with a sword. Then he immediately bit his finger and wrote several blood letters. He sent someone to secretly contact Qin Yan, who was once a general of the Cao Army, as well as his in-laws, his son's father-in-law, Gaoyou Town E, and Zhang Xiong, nicknamed Divine Sword. He also conspired to raise an army when Bi Shiduo surrendered that year, General Zheng Hanzhang, and other generals of Gaoyou Town.

Bi Shiduo secretly arrived in Gaoyou, gathered troops with the generals, and became an alliance with blood. Bi Shiduo was appointed as the camp envoy and drafted a manifesto to declare that he would kill Lu Yongzhi, Zhang Shouyi and Zhuge Yin, and appointed Qin Yan, Zheng Hanzhang as the deputy envoy of the camp, and Zhang Shenjian as the commander-in-chief of the capital. Bi Shiduo and other soldiers surrounded Guangling City, Yangzhou, and Lu Yongzhi used a large sum of money to reward his subordinates Moye Du soldiers to fight against him, but Gao Pian was still completely hidden in the dark and was practicing. Although Moye Du was built by him by Lu Yongzhi, these people were just some

Rogues, rogues, etc., are good at bullying the weak and fearing the strong on weekdays, but once they fight, they are no match for generals like Bi Shiduo in troubled times. Not long after, Yangzhou City was broken, Bi Shiduo attacked Yangzhou and imprisoned Gao Pian. However, Qin Yan's troops had an internal conflict with Bi Shiduo at this time. Qin Yan's people were still in other places, with only three thousand soldiers in Yangzhou. Because they felt that the reward was unfair, they made chaos and burned and killed and robbed. Yangzhou City was trapped in a sea of ​​fire. Lu Yongzhi fled Yangzhou and used Gao Pian's name to send rescue troops to Yang Xingmi.

At this time, Bi Shiduo served as deputy envoy of Huainan Jiedu. His in-law Zhang Xiong asked him for the position of marching Sima and was rejected. He was furious and turned to Yang Xingmi who led 30,000 troops. Then, Gao Ba, a Hailing Town envoy, Liu Jin, a native of Quxi, and Jia Lingwei, a native of Xuyi, also led his troops to Yang Xingmi. Zhang Xiong even transported food and grass to Yang Xingmi from Gaoyou to support him. However, Qin Yan, a ally of Bi Shiduo, was trapped on the way.

However, he was transformed into a military general and later took advantage of the chaos to capture Suzhou and claim to be the governor. However, he was defeated by Zhou Bao and general Xu Yue, who was rushed to the sea, and finally broke through the siege and rushed to Guangling, there were only more than 10,000 troops left. However, after arriving in Yangzhou, Qin Yan and Bi Shiduo quickly realized the situation and united. Bi Shiduo even took the initiative to let Qin Yan become the governor of Huainan, and he served as deputy governor of Huainan and Sima of the marching.

Later, Yang Xingmi finally led an army of 50,000 troops to the city of Guangling, Yangzhou, and the troops were divided into eight camps and began to siege Yangzhou.

Wu Yue, separated by a river, was also in constant war. First, Dong Chang proclaimed himself emperor, and Qian Liu immediately sent troops to attack, but Li Jing reacted very quickly. He immediately appointed Zhang Rui as the recruitment envoy, and Zhou Bao as the deputy envoy, only Qian Liu as the vanguard. At the same time, the Qin army sent a navy and a marine team to Zhang Rui's command.

When Dong Chang was promoted to emperor, he was very proud of himself, but under the attacks of several troops, the forces of the eight states belonging to him were as vulnerable as ice and snow melted. Soon, Qian Li captured Yuezhou, and Zhang Rui also captured the other states. Although Dong Chang was captured by Qian Li, Qian Li was also happy. The rapid attack of the Qin army led to the final fruit ripe, but the Qin army picked it first, and he did not even dare to complain.

Faced with the two choices that Li Jing offered Qian Li, Qian Li finally gave up going to Fujian to be the governor of Hangzhou and still chose to continue to be the governor of Hangzhou. Zhang Rui took Dong Chang to Yanjing and became the governor of Zhejiang Province, while Da Taibao's three-star Lieutenant General Liu Xun was appointed as the governor of Fujian Province.

He was not willing to accept the situation without getting the Qian Liu from Zhejiang. However, he did not dare to use force. He turned his attention to the territory of Zhou Bao, a navy army in Xizhen, who served as deputy recruitment this time, but no soldiers were sent.

The Zhenhai Army had already been undercurrents. Zhou Bao was old and became more and more stupid. Not only did he immerse himself in wine and sex all day long, but he also established the same group of Tooth Guardians like Gao Pian, and he also established the same Tooth Guardians. He was treated very well, but he was all a group of domineering raiders. The Zhenhai Army General Liu Hao, Diao Feng and Du Zhi urged the investigation commander, and the prince's left slander Xue Lang and others all rebelled. Zhou Bao urgently transferred the Houlou Du to quell the rebellion, but the Houlou Du turned against him and rebelled together. Zhou Bao fled from Runzhou overnight and defected to Changzhou's general Ding Congshi.

Seeing that the Zhenhai Army was in conflict, Qian Liu immediately sent troops to attack Changzhou from the sea under the banner of rescuing Zhou Bao.

There was a chaotic situation in all directions, and Zhu Wen, who was beaten almost as pig's head, also began to fight back.

In May, just when Li Jing was attacking Hebei fiercely, Zhu Wen, after digging the territory of more than a dozen prefectures in the north of Xuanwu, including Shaanxi Guo, Jin Shang and Shandong East Road, he also gathered an army of tens of thousands of people in Bianzhou and began to fight inside and outside to double-team the Jin army. The two sides fought hard under the city of Bianzhou for several days, and the Hedong army was unable to support their efforts and did not continue to provide logistics and began to retreat. Zhu Wen fought steadily this time, not aggressive. The Hedong army set up several ambushes in front and behind but failed. Finally, he was chased by the Bian army to Wang Mandu on the border of Zhengzhou. It was raining heavily, and the river water surged, and the floating bridge on the river was washed down. The Jin army was crowded and crossed the river, and the Liang cavalry repeatedly rushed to cross the river, and countless casualties were injured. At that time, Li Keyong led the 20,000 elite Jin army troops south, and less than 3,000 reinforcements from Hedong and Hezhong arrived, and the troops were saved and were not completely wiped out.

When the Bian Army saw the arrival of reinforcements from the Jin army, they stopped pursuing and defended the Zhengzhou border. The Jin army had just been defeated and did not dare to cross the Bian River to talk about war. Both sides retreated. In a battle between Liang and Jin, both sides suffered losses and neither of them got any advantage.

Zhu Wen, who was betrayed by the Yang brothers, was now even scarred and hated the Yang brothers in his heart. After leading his army back to Bianzhou, Zhu Wen, who lost more than ten states, did not give up, but instead raided Zhou Ji in Xuzhou. The Zhongwu Jiedushi was not prepared enough and was defeated and died. At the same time, Zhu Wen swallowed up many troops from the former governor of Chenzhou Lu Yanhong. Lu Yanhong had to escape from the Central Plains and flee to Luoyang. The eight generals of their eight generals also cracked at this time. Lu Yanhong went to Luoyang, while Wang Jian, Jin Hui and other five generals defected to Zhu Wen. However, Zhu Wen was not at ease with these five generals. After a few days, he found an excuse to remove their military power and then sent them to Chengdu, called "Going to Protect the Lord".

Wang Jian had had sex with Zhu Wen on the battlefield. At that time, Zhu Wen was still under Huang Chao's command, while he was under Cui Anqian, the governor of Zhongwu Jie. He knew that Zhu Wen could not tolerate him, so he didn't say much. The five brothers left Bianliang and went to Chengdu happily. After arriving in Chengdu, Tian Lingzi attached great importance to these young generals in Xuzhou's hometown. He immediately granted the title of a vassal of the Five Capital Generals, and asked the five people to lead a 5,000-man Shence Imperial Army to become his confidant general.

At this time, the defeated army in Hedong was still halfway back to Taiyuan.

By the Fenshui River, in the Hedong Army camp, in the central army tent, An Jinquan, Li Cunzhang and other generals were all frowning. Although they had suffered several setbacks before heading south, they had never been pessimistic with the tenacious one-eyed man. But now, looking back, the brave King Shatuo had already lost his life on the Bian River. Shatuo's elite also lost most of them.

"Report!"

A rapid voice rang, "Report to the general, I just received the news that the Qin army has pacified Hebei!"

"What!" A scream sounded in the tent.

"How is this possible? What are you kidding!" Li Cunzhang cursed in a low voice. This news was too shocking. When they sent troops south, the Qin army had not yet begun to attack Hebei. Why did the Qin army wipe out Hebei just after a month? What a joke? The second towns of Chengde Weibo in Hebei are old vassal states, controlling the territory of ten prefectures and dozens of counties!

The captain who reported the news faced the eyes of the generals, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and continued: "The latest news is that the Qin army has launched three troops, and the three troops are attacking, and the troops invaded Hedong and pointed directly at Taiyuan!"
Chapter completed!
