A huge tombstone was erected under the joint efforts of the former Wang Haogu generals such as Park Demeng, Yao Changkun, Huo Zhenting, Wan Shichang, but the tomb was bare and nothing except the three words Wang Haogu.

There was a table of incense in front of the grave. The generals and civil servants in Anqing, led by Yun Zhao, were all here at this time. They picked up three incense sticks in their hands, and Yun Zhao walked forward, burned incense and bowed.

Standing straight, looking at the empty tombstone in front of you, Yun Zhao said slowly: "General Wang, I can't judge you. I believe that no one here knows how to judge you, so we have this epitaph.

I can't write for you, but I'll stay for future generations and leave them for historical books to evaluate. But as me personally, I should thank you."

Yun Zhao bowed again and stared at the stone-built tomb on the tombstone. Inside, Wang Haogu, a former celebrity in Yizhou, lay inside.

Yao Changkun, Huo Zhenting, Park Demeng, Wan Shichang was wearing mourning clothes, knelt on the left and right of the tomb, and kowtowed to Yun Zhao to return the ceremony.

Guo Changxing came over the second time, burned incense, bowed, and stood still. He wanted to say something, but his mouth opened, but he didn't say it. He sighed and turned around and walked away.

Meng Yao and Ding Qiu walked up side by side, "General Wang, I hated you very much, and now I don't agree with your actions of surrendering to Mengren, but I have to say that you are still a real man.

, responsible. I am worthy of my admiration." He saluted and walked away with Ding Qiu.

The other Anqing generals came forward to burn incense and salute one by one.

Three days ago, Meng Yao and others arrived in Xingling and immediately held a funeral for Wang Haogu. As the beneficiary of Wang Haogu's final behavior, all the generals attended the ceremony.

"General Yao, have you really decided? You are in your prime and have a long way to go. General Wang in the tomb must also be willing to see you take off your armor and return to the field, right? Although General Wang's behavior is questionable,

.As far as he was concerned, he still wanted to protect the people of Yizhou. The Mongolian army invaded in a large-scale invasion, and it was a time to make contributions to the country and the people. It would be a pity for you to retire." Looking at Yao Changkun, Yun Zhao felt a little

Sorry and authentic.

Yao Changkun shook his head. "Thank you for General Yun's kindness. Yao understands it. But I am tired. Not only is I tired, but my heart is even more tired. Even if I go to the battlefield, I can no longer be a qualified general. Please Rong Yun

I will guard the tomb for General Wang here, guard the ten acres of land, and be a farmer here!"

Yun Zhao nodded. "Since that's the case, I won't force you. If you have any needs in the future, just go to Xingling to find Lord Guo."

"Thank you General Yun. Thank you Lord Guo!" Yao Changkun clasped his fists to the two of them.

"Let's go, the time to send troops is coming!" Yun Zhao nodded to the other party, turned around and strode away. Guo Changxing, Ma Yigong, Meng Yao, Ding Qiu, Li Fugui and others followed Yun Zhao and turned around and left.

.

Ho Zhenting, Park Demeng and Wan Shichang knelt in front of Wang Haogu's tomb, knocked three loudly, stood on Zhi's body, untied the linen mourning clothes on his body, and respectfully offered them on the incense table, "General, we are going!

”

The three of them walked to Yao Changkun, "Brother Yao, take care of yourself."

"Take care!" Yao Changkun opened his arms, hugged and farewelled with the three of them, staring at the three of them, strode towards the distance. He turned around and put the three of them in the brazier, igniting the fire.

In November, Yun Zhao sent Wan Shichang to Daxian to prevent Yizhou City from taking simple actions. He personally led Meng Yao's third battalion and Li Fugui's fifth battalion, and formed the sixth battalion at the same time.

All the camps recruited old subordinates who were dispersed by the original king Haogu. Huo Zhenting and Park Demeng were the chief and deputy generals of the battalion, and Zhou Guangyi was the general. The original description of three thousand subordinates was formed into the seventh battalion, and at the same time, Quan Yifeng was transferred to lead 2,000.

The new soldiers of Anqing entered the Seventh Battalion, became the deputy general, gathered 20,000 soldiers in Yizhou, recruited tens of thousands of civilians, with a total of more than 60,000 people, and arrived in Linggao in a mighty manner.

In Lingao, the Fourth Battalion led by Wang Qiang had fought with the Mongolian advance troops with Tinig as the general for nearly half a month. The city of Linao has always stood firm. Linao is not able to lead the Iron Cavalry to advance.

Although the cavalry is powerful, the logistics it consumes is also extremely amazing. The more than a thousand cavalry led by Master Xiaoyi of Yan is cruising outside, making his idea of ​​plundering the people and raising the war. If there are fewer people going out to plunder, they will

Become a delicious meal for Yan Xiaoyi, and more people go out, Yan Xiaoyi

Without a trace, every time I send troops, I get very little, and my income does not cover my expenses, which forced Tienig to rely more on the food channels behind. What made Tienig even more troubled was the resistance of the people around Lingao.

It was also surging. The rebels formed by local people were more difficult to deal with than Yan Xiaoyi's cavalry. They were sometimes dispersed and when they were put together, they could reach thousands of people. If you take the troops to fight, they will be divided instantly.

It has become a small group of dozens or hundreds of people, and there is no trace to be found.

Wang Qiang defended Lingao, not blindly defending himself. Every now and then, he led his troops out of the city to invite battle. Without Yan Xiaoyi's cavalry protection, Wang Qiang's infantry never left the protection area of ​​the city wall. On the city and under the city, three-dimensional

Fighting, the more than a thousand elite Wang Qiang, after several major battles, only nearly 300 people were left, but the corpse of Mengqi who fell in front of them was far greater than the number of casualties they had, just above the Mongyuan lieutenant.

Nearly ten officers died.

As the three parties in Yizhou, which occurred in Da County, fell sharply, Yunzhao's main force arrived in Linggao, and Tinig had to retreat and stabilize the front. In front of him was the third battalion of the Anqing Border Army, which was famous in the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty.

, He had to do it carefully.

At this time, the Mongolian Yuan reinforcements, 30,000 infantry and cavalry led by Wu Liqi, also arrived in Linggao. The total number of people on both sides exceeded 100,000. They confronted each other in the small Lingao County, and the war was about to break out.

The gate of Lingao County opened wide, and Wang Qiang hurriedly came out. Looking at Yun Zhao who was smiling, he saluted: "Wang Qiang, the Fourth Battalion of Anqing Border Army, report to the general."

Yun Zhao laughed and turned over and dismounted, helping Wang Qiang up. The eighteen-year-old Wang Qiang experienced this battle, but he looked much more mature. A short beard grew on his chin and the experience on his body.

The smell of gunpowder is very strong.

"Well done, Wang Qiang, I didn't expect that you could do this! Your father knows what he knows in the spring, and he should be the three great whites." Yun Zhao said with his hands firmly and dignified.

"Thank you for your compliment, General. I will not disappoint my father, nor will I let down the general."

"Okay. After this battle, the Fourth Battalion will become my Anqing troop. Let me go and take me into the city and let me see your soldiers." Holding Wang Qiang's hand, Yun Zhao stepped into the city.

Tinig welcomed Prince Heshuote Wu Liqi outside the camp. Ten thousand cavalry came to fight Lingao, but he encountered a dirty face in front of the 18-year-old young general Wang Qiang. Tinig seemed a little depressed. Wu Li

Although he came, Yun Zhao also arrived in Linggao. Although the forces on both sides were roughly the same, Yun Zhao's third battalion was the most experienced unit in the fight against the Mongolian army, and the Anqing army still had a strong city to rely on. Tieni

There is no confidence in the yard.

"Victory and defeat are common in military affairs. Major Generals don't have to be discouraged. Besides, we did not suffer any losses this time. It's a pity that Yun Zhao actually calmed the Yizhou Rebellion so quickly. Wang Haogu, a villain at both ends of the rat,

It ruined our big event." Wu Liqi couldn't help but sigh. Yun Zhao's luck was so good. Not only him, but even the Emperor of Yanjing was shocked by Wang Haogu's decision at the last moment.

The best chance to solve Yizhou slipped away from your hands like this.

"The weather has turned colder. At most one month, it will start snowing in Yizhou. If it cannot be resolved in Yizhou in a month, it will not be able to fight this battle. The horse will lose weight and its combat power will drop rapidly.

I can't continue to fight anymore." Tienig sighed, "But in one month, how can we take Yun Zhao?"

Wu Liqi glanced at Tienig, and did not expect that this former arrogant major general was so unconfident. "If you can take it or not, you will have to fight before you know. A month is indeed a little tighter, but

It is not without hope. Now that winning Lingao is the secondary, defeating Yun Zhao's main force is the most important. After defeating Yun Zhao's main force, Lingao will naturally collapse. In order to echo the war here, the emperor has already ordered it.

Tuotuo attacked Anqing in a large scale, making Yun Zhao unable to transfer troops into Yizhou, and even had to send troops back to Anqing. At least he could restrain Gaoyang's Su Ding Fang's troops. Until now, Yun Zhao had not transferred Su Ding Fang's troops to Linggao, only

I’m afraid that An Qing will be in danger of accidents!”

Tinig said in surprise: "It should have started snowing in Anqing now. How much combat power can Tutu's troops have? This year, he suffered another big loss in Anqing, losing thousands of war horses.

He is just afraid that he will be afraid of being beaten by the other party, so he will have the courage to attack again?"

"Tutuo is a mud that cannot be supported on the wall!" Wu Liqi sneered, "If it weren't for his contribution, he would be qualified to have the title of the Five Kings of Political Consultative Affairs, I'm afraid the emperor would be extremely disappointed with him now. I heard that it is right

He issued a strict order and made no achievements, so he would let him go back to the desert. This time, Tutuo would use all his strength to eat. An Qing, hum, I'm afraid there will be difficulties."

"Even if Anqing wins, it may not be of much use to us. Yun Zhao won Yizhou, and Anqing is a chicken strait for him. Now there is more of a symbol. If he is forced to do so, he will give up Anqing by himself.

, What can we do if we withdraw our main force to Yizhou?"

"This possibility is not non-existent, but our hope is not in Anqing, nor in Yizhou. Before I came, the latest information from Dayue Dynasty had been transmitted back to Yanjing." Wu Liqi smiled and said, "We

Hope is there.”

"What trouble has happened in the Dayue Dynasty?"

"The left and right Weiwei, led by the great prince, to suppress the rebellion in Shanzhou. Not only did he fail to fight repeatedly, he actually defeated the saint of the White Lotus Sect who rebelled last month. The entire Shanzhou is now in the hands of the rebels.

Do you know what this means?" Wu Liqi burst into laughter.

Tienig's eyes shined.

"So, it doesn't matter if we don't win here. As long as we don't defeat, we can just sit and watch the changes and then collect the benefits of the fisherman. The sixteen northern states are very large, just Yizhou, and then we will hang alone in the future.

In addition, I want to see, even if Yun Zhao is a god, how can he respond to the attack of our army? At that time, I am afraid that Feng Congyi and others will not be able to restrain my large number of troops anymore, right? "Wuli
