Wang Chongrong, the governor of Hezhong Town, has been a little uneasy recently, and Zhang Juyan has been a little unreasonable recently. This guy who has always been the logistics manager of Huang Chao, has always been Huang Chao's Minister of Personnel since he entered Chang'an, and is not a general who led troops on the front line. In terms of this, under Huang Chao, compared with Ge Congzhou, Huo Cun, Zhang Guiba, Zhu Quanzhong, Lin Yan, and even Meng Kai, he is considered to be a low-level military experience. But such a guy has lost the troops of the Tang army in a row in a short period of time.

Now Wang Chongrong no longer wants to beat the fallen dog and establish any meritorious contributions to Zhongxing. What he thought was that due to the defeat of the Eastern Front coalition, Huang Chao was likely to bring his main force to his Hezhong Town. This was not just his speculation, but more and more evidence showed that Huang Chao was likely to abandon Chang'an and come to Hezhong. On the Western Front, there were two troops of Wang Duo and Yang brothers, two troops that had been stationary, which had been over 100,000 troops, which made Huang Chao dare not easily walk the Lantian Wuguan road in the southwest to leave Guanzhong.

Moreover, the Han River area of ​​Jin and Shang are now equally poor, and there is no food or grass to raise on the road. On the Eastern Front, the coalition forces have been defeated several times and are unable to intercept them. However, as long as they cross the Yellow River, Hezhong Town will be extremely wealthy, and even Heyang and Hedong Towns next to them are relatively rich.

There are also secret and uncertain news that Huang Chao intends to accept Qin Fan's revenge and wants to enter Hebei through the river and surrender to Li Jing. Although this news is a bit unreliable, it is not impossible. Li Jing now has many of the former Wang Xianzhi and the generals under Huang Chao surrendered to him.

Li Quanzhong and Zhuge Shuang are now hiding in Tongguan, and the two prefectures of Hua are basically in the hands of Zhang Juyan. After the defeat of Baoda in Longshang, they also hiding in the town and refused to accept Wang Duo's military orders to provide assistance. Although Li Sigong, who was in trouble, sent troops, it was impossible to rely on him to come to reinforce and intercept Huang Chao at the same speed. Even the two armies of Yang Fuguang and Wang Duo are difficult to count on. The more they are now, the smarter these guys are, and they are holding their troops and unwilling to fight to the death.

All are preserving their strength!

Wang Chongrong is under great pressure now. He saw that the desperate people had already stared at him with blood-red eyes. It won’t take long before the Qi army all over the mountains and fields would hold white flags and fight towards the river, and he felt a headache.

what to do?

Wang Chongduo immediately asked for help from the capital chief Wang Duo. Not long ago, Wang Chongrong, who was already Yang Fuguang's adopted son, recognized Wang Duo as his uncle. Although Wang Duo and Wang Chongrong both had surnames Wang, they were not actually the same clan at all. However, this did not prevent him from reaching relatives. Wang Duo did not refuse to recognize his nephew who came to his house. Instead, he was very satisfied. Although he was appointed by Tian Lingzi, he had already turned to the Yang Fuguang brothers immediately. He knew that

Seeing that Tian Lingzi was able to be a local emperor in Sanchuan, but he could only be a local emperor in Sanchuan. Even if he held the emperor hostage, he was not a match for the Yang brothers, so he could not come out of Sanchuan again. Therefore, he knew the current affairs and turned to the Yang brothers at the first time. Now that Wang Chongrong wants to recognize him as his uncle, he is of course very happy. After recognizing Wang Chongrong's nephew, he can be considered as a disguised relationship with Yang Fuguang and become a pair of fucking brothers.

Wang Chongrong asked his uncle for reinforcements, but Wang Duo was still in the west of Chang'an. He had tens of thousands of troops in his hands, but he did not dare to bypass Chang'an. He immediately gave Wang Chongrong an idea, go find your godfather, he is close to you and has many soldiers.

The letter of help was transferred to Yang Fuguang. Yang Fuguang, who was stationed in Fengtian City, faced the letter, and after reading it, he shook his head and said a lot of words. In short, it was nothing more than that they were preparing to counterattack Chang'an, so it was difficult for a moment to walk away. They said that they needed to keep an eye on Fengtian and stare at the southwest of Chang'an to prevent Huang Chao from escaping from Lantian Wuguan. However, Yang Fuguang did not completely ignore his godson Wang Chongrong. After all, Hezhong Town is a big town and a wealthy town. Even his eight capitals and military pay comes from Hezhong Town.

In the end, he also gave Wang Chongrong an idea like Wang Duo.

"Li Ya'er, the King of Jin in Hedong, has always been a powerful and powerful man in the world. Moreover, Feihuzi and Chongrong are also adopted sons of a certain person. Now that he is in trouble in the river, he can find him to help. Feihuzi has always been loyal and loyal to the difficulties and dies as righteous as himself. As long as he sends a messenger to Hedong, he will inevitably lead his army immediately. At that time, there will be Hezhong and Hedong, plus Zhenguo Army, Heyang Army, and Dingnan Army, and the second army of Daobao. Even if Huang Chao really dares to send troops eastward, he will be just around the corner."

In fact, Yang Fuguang was not without soldiers. He had a large army, but he was not willing to save Wang Chongrong. First, he thought that Huang Chao would most likely choose to go from the southwest of Chang'an to Wuguan and go to Shannan, and then go directly to Jingnan, Hunan, Jiangxi, and even Fujian, such as Guangdong and Fujian, to re-engage their way of wandering and fighting. Second, Yang Fuguang's troops were stationed in Fengtian and were unwilling to leave Chang'an too far. When he was waiting for Huang Chao to take the initiative to evacuate Chang'an, he could lead his army to restore Chang'an as soon as possible.

The contribution of reviving Chang'an is of great significance. Chang'an cannot be allowed to fall into the hands of other vassal states. The Yang brothers have now left the emperor and want to establish a career in troubled times. Another thing is that when Li Keyong was sent to Hedong, he was very close to his grudges with Li Jing and had rich experience in fighting the Qin army. However, Li Keyong has been to Hedong for so long and has no movement at all. Instead, he is constantly recruiting troops and storing grain to build a city, which makes the Yang brothers a little unsatisfied and relieved. It just so happened that Li Keyong was summoned to kill Huang Chao first, so as to take the opportunity to add a hoop on his head to avoid being difficult to control.

In June, Li Keyong received a joint order from Wang Duo, the governor of the capital, Yang Fuguang, the general army, and Yang Fugong, the twelve military envoys, requiring him to lead the Hedong army south and work with Wang Chongrong, Zhuge Shuang, Li Quanzhong, Li Sigong, Dongfang Kui and others to stabilize the eastern line, preventing Huang Chao from escaping from Tongguan to Henan, or from Puyang to Hedong. He also ordered Zhu Wen, Qin Zongquan, Zhou Ji, Zheng Congqian and others to deploy defenses on the Jin Shang line in Shannan to prevent Huang Chao from escaping from Wuguan.

The Yang Fuguang brothers and Wang Duo together built three lines of defense around Chang'an, east and south, and began to advance step by step towards Chang'an.

Although Li Keyong scolded him for being untrustworthy for many people, he had one characteristic, that is, he was straightforward and less intestinal. When he threw away the Yanmen nest, Wang Chongrong gave him food and salary support. When Yang Fuguang was in a downturn, he also won him the territory of Hedong. He was still very grateful. Moreover, he knew in his heart who was a friend and who was the enemy at the moment. Although he had obtained a major Hedong town, he knew that his enemies were stronger now. If he had no allies like Yang Fuguang and Wang Chongrong, he would be alone.

In mid-June, Li Keyong left 10,000 elite soldiers and 40,000 new recruits to stay in Hedong. Then he personally led 20,000 veterans and 50,000 new recruits to Hezhong.

In early July, Li Keyong's 70,000 troops arrived in Hezhong, and Wang Chongrong took the initiative to take charge of all the food and supplies of the Hedong Army. When the army arrived at Hezhong Prefecture, it had completely changed, and it was no longer the pitiful appearance he had when he went north to Hedong. They were all wearing black clothes and black armor, unified military robes, and 20,000 veterans were equipped with iron armor. Most of these iron armors were stored in Hedong warehouses, and some were sent by various towns. Now, Li Keyong's army has a bit of the momentum of the Shatuo Army. Although the remaining 50,000 new recruits were just a group of mobs not long ago, at least now they are wearing unified and neat black military robes, looking like a few minutes of army.

When 70,000 men arrived in the river, it was like a dark cloud wrapped in thunder and storm rolling across the wilderness, emitting an astonishing momentum.

After Li Keyong arrived in the river, Wang Chongrong came to work hard with a lot of wine and meat. At this time, Huang Chao's army had completely occupied Tongzhou. Zhang Juyan and Lin Yan gathered together to reach the bank of the Yellow River. As Huang Chao's vanguard, he tried to conquer the Puyang Bridge to open the Hedong Pass and waited for Huang Chao's army to evacuate Chang'an.

Although the Hezhong Army had many soldiers, Wang Chongrong had no intention of fighting at all. He put all his hopes on Li Keyong and looked for Feihuzi to show his power. Li Quanzhong, Zhuge Shuang, Dongfang Kui and Li Sigong had no hope at all, and none of them arrived as scheduled.

After eating and drinking, Li Keyong sent general Li Cunzhang to lead 500 elite Shatuo cavalry to cross the river at night from the Yellow River and quietly land in Tongzhou. When the Qi army arrived after hearing the news, Li Cunzhang had completed the crossing of the river and landing, and the two armies fought.

There is almost no suspense. The Qi army, which has been winning many times recently, this time, after a raid from the Shatu Iron Cavalry, this three thousand Qi army, which is as many as six times the Shatu Iron Cavalry, was defeated.

Although this was just a small-scale encounter, the ferocity of the Shatuo army began to spread quickly like a stroke in the Qi army.

Many people said in a terrified tone, "Li Ya'er is here!"

After receiving the news that Li Keyong led his army south and the vanguard had already entered Guanzhong, Huang Chao immediately sent more than a hundred Li Keyong tribe members who had stayed in Chang'an and had no time to withdraw as a meeting gift to Li Keyong's military camp, and sent a hundred trucks of gold, silver and jewelry with the army. The batch of gold, silver and jewelry was of amazing value and shining light. Even Shatuo generals who had seen many worlds could not help but look at it.

The envoy of Huang Chao who sent the treasures suggested to Li Jing that the Tang Dynasty was the enemy of the Qi army, but also the enemy of the Shatuo tribe. The enemy of the enemy is a friend. Why bother to kill each other? It is better to work together.
