In the Battle of Pinggu, Xiang Ping was defeated. The 300,000 army was destroyed in one go. Xiang Ping, who had only 50,000 remaining remaining troops, fled back to Fengtai County, less than a hundred miles away from Luoyang. Faced with such a situation, he wanted to cry without tears. The defeat in the Battle of Pinggu meant that the gates of Luoyang were opened, and Yang Yidao's Dingzhou Central Army would be able to drive straight into Luoyang.

In fact, this is true. Yang Yidao's troops took a break and stepped into the Luoyang area where invading troops had not entered for hundreds of years. The city of Jinglong was shocked and people were in chaos.

Neither Tianqi nor Shang Haibo expected that Xiang Ping would be defeated by Yang Yidao in such a short time. Hundreds of thousands of troops disappeared, exposing Luoyang directly under the Dingzhou army's troops. Tianqi had no intention of scolding and punishing Xiang Ping. The most urgent task at the moment was to mobilize troops and guard Luoyang.

The two camps on the left and right sides of Jinglong City were urgently mobilized and headed forward.

Guo Fengxian, the general of the Zuo Daying, led 50,000 troops to Fengtai, and the general of the Youdaying, occupied Degang and led 50,000 people to Longquan. At the same time, an emergency conscription order was issued in Luoyang. All males over the age of fifteen and under the age of sixty were enlisted in the army and prepared to guard Luoyang.

While doing a good job in defense, he issued an order to the eight states including Changzhou and Xuzhou under Luoyang's control, ordering the commanders of the eight states to urgently transfer troops to Luoyang to serve the king.

However, before the Dingzhou army came, these states were respectful under the high-pressure situation in Luoyang. At present, the 200,000 troops of Xiangping were destroyed. Zhou and Qu Yongjie were still in Pingzhou, struggling to resist the troops of Dingzhou Lu Dalin, Tianfeng Group, and the left and right camps of the capital were urgently recruited the front line. Luoyang, which was once strong and powerful, was now extremely empty, and the commanders of the states were not so obedient. Except for Changzhou who urgently mobilized 50,000 troops to go to Luoyang, the other seven states agreed on the surface, but the topic changed, asking for food and grass, weapons, and everything was needed, but the troops were slow to move. Until the end of April, Yang Yidao Central Army completed the military deployment of Fengtai and Yangquan. The troops of these seven states were still under their jurisdiction.

Guo Fengxian, who arrived in Fengtai, took over Xiang Ping's military power. Faced with the 50,000 remaining troops who were exhausted, Guo Fengxian rushed them back to Luoyang without hesitation. Instead of letting them disturb the morale of the army here, it would be better to let them return to Luoyang to rest and rest, and perhaps it would be useful in the future, but here, they can only play a negative role.

Xiang Ping's only contribution to this battle was to prove the power of the Divine Power Cannon to Guo Fengxian. After learning the situation in detail, Guo Fengxian gave up any idea of ​​taking the initiative to attack, and the small Fengtai County town could not resist the bombardment of the opponent's Divine Power Cannon.

He did two jobs.

The first item is to dig trenches in the Fengtai Guards crisscrossed and dig trenches of more than ten meters deep without any effort to build any chest walls. When they are built, they will be easily defeated by the other party. After these deep trenches, he dug a shallow ditch about half a meter, and then dig out the soldiers of the Tibetan soldiers and caves in the trenches to block the other party.

The second item will flow into Fengtai, Yangquan, and Luoyang to dig out the river and spread the water, making the land in Fengtai muddy, forming wetlands, depressions, and ponds of all sizes, to limit the attacks of the opponent's cavalry.

Guo Fengxian did not ask for defeating the enemy. He knew that with his current military strength, this was impossible to complete. What he wanted was to try to delay the enemy's attack and delay the opponent's pace, thereby mobilizing reinforcements for Luoyang to win time.

And Zhan Degang in Yangquan also does the same job.

It is impossible to say that the strategies adopted by these two generals hit the soft threat of the Dingzhou army. Whether it is the Dingzhou cavalry or the Dingzhou's largest killing weapon, Dingzhou, they have to stop. Needless to say, the cavalry cannon cannot run at all in such wetlands and depressions, and the cavalry without speed will become a living target for the defensive army. Although the Dingzhou cannon has been greatly reduced in weight, it still weighs more than a thousand pounds. On such a ground, the cannon cart will fall deeply into the mud, and it takes a lot of effort to push it out, and the speed of the attack inevitably decreases.

"Guo Fengxian, Zhan Degang is the old general!" Xiao Yuanshan said to Yang Yidao, "The two of them had fought with Duke Li and my uncle in the past, and had extremely rich combat experience. Guo Fengxian was very popular, straightforward, and did not fear the powerful. He was once the deputy general of the Luoyang garrison, but he offended noble people because of whipping an officer in the army. Hehe, by the way, this officer was a royal family and was deprived of his general position and had been unemployed for many years. This time it seemed that no one was available to Tianqi. Finally, I remembered him, and this person should not be despised."

"Which Bikino is the opposite of Guo Fengxian's character. He is very feminine and cannot offend anyone or curry favor with anyone. But because of this, it makes no one feel at ease. Whether under Duke Li, or later in the administration of our Xiao family, and the restoration of the Apocalypse, Bikino did not have the opportunity to lead the army alone. Unexpectedly, this time, he finally came out of the mountain.

"Of course such a guy is not likable!" Yang Yidao smiled.

Xiao Yuanshan said seriously: "Although this person is not pleasing, he still has a way of leading the army. Look at this time, he and Guo Fengxian were stationed in two places, but the measures taken to counter our countermeasures were exactly the same. You can see this person's talent in combat. They have never fought with us. They can find out the flaws of our army based on experience alone. It is really not to be underestimated. It seems that this time, Tianqi was completely disappointed with the generals of the royal family. Xiang Ping's defeat almost lost all of Tianqi's underwear."

Yang Yidao laughed, "Although we haven't lost completely, we have seen the color of his underwear. If we work harder, we can peel him off. Well, our opponents are difficult, so we don't have to worry. We can steadily and take action and eat away their defense zone in one step."

"But in this way, we lost the opportunity to give Luoyang a thunder attack!" Xiao Yuanshan was a little worried, "Luoyang has many states controlled by him. If he was allowed to mobilize the army calmly, we would still be very dangerous."

Yang Yidao smiled and said, "The wall fell and everyone pushed him. General Xiao, you see that we have been in the suburbs of Luoyang for almost a month. How many king-supporting troops have arrived in Luoyang? Only Changzhou, and they are still huddling away from a hundred miles away. There are too many smart people in this world. Seeing that the Great Chu is already in decline, who is willing to work for him at this time? The Supervisory Office's work in these places is also effective. Not only has it instigated many important generals, but many guerrilla teams have been organized in these places. They have been launched now to restrain their strength. I don't think we have to worry about them."

"That's good!" Xiao Yuanshan said excitedly, "Although Guo Fengxian and Zhan Degang are well-strategic, as long as they are powerless, we can eat them little by little. Force them back to Luoyang."

"Yes, take them back to Luoyang. By the way, General Xiao, since there is no way to use these two people for a while, and the cavalry cannot be used for the time being, we can use the cavalry in hand." Yang Yidao said slowly.

Xiao Yuanshan smiled: "Go to fight the Changzhou soldiers?"

"Yes, Changzhou commander Fan Jian is still very loyal to Da Chu. He hurriedly brought 50,000 troops to serve the king. We might as well kill the chickens and show the monkeys, so that those guys who are still watching can see the truth that the acorns that are making their way out are messed up first."

"It's very difficult for cavalry to attack a hundred miles!" Xiao Yuanshan said: "We have less than 20,000 cavalrymen and the other side is huddled in the camp, so it's not that easy to fight!"

Yang Yidao laughed, "General Xiao doesn't know that our Dingzhou has fought a lot of this kind of attack on the enemy's troops in a hundred miles, and the Tornado Camp is the leader among them. Their reputation is because of this. The Changzhou army came from afar. How solid can the camp be built without material resources? Moreover, the Taiping army like the Changzhou army has seen bloody battles several times. I'm afraid they are so tired."

The two laughed, "So, will the five thousand Youyan cavalry under my command follow General Jiang to gain some benefits?"

Jiang Kui was extremely excited and finally got back to his old business. He ran a long distance to attack. This kind of thing was his favorite thing. After receiving Yang Yidao's military order, he immediately gathered the army and arrived in more than 100 places in one night. He launched an attack in the early morning. At that time, it was the time when people were alert and the time when their opponents were most relaxed in defense. On the grassland, the barbarians had done this, and he had done this, and both sides knew it well.

This tactic is a bit harder to fight, but these Changzhou rookies, Jiang Kui, were so hot all over, and grandma, that he could finally charge forward in person again. In the past two years, he has been holding him back! In order to go barefoot at every turn, he was taught a lesson by Li Qing twice, but his country is defeated and his nature is difficult to change. Jiang Kui just can't change it. Anyway, he doesn't want to be a general. If he can become a general of the cavalry, it's only a few people, and above ten thousand people, I love this tone.

The lord is about to become the emperor, and there will be no wars in the future. Sometimes when he is free, Jiang Kui even wonders whether he is asking his lord to take him overseas like Wang Qinian to charge in the battle. He will be bare-handed even if he knows, he will be out of reach, and his butt will not be able to eat his own board! Wang Qinian goes to Zheng Zhiyuan, so he will run to Yinning fleet. Well, whether Yinning or Li Wen, the commander of Yinning fleet, dare to hit his own board? This is a good thing!

"Xiao Tianhao, Xiao Tianyang reported to General Jiang!"

Jiang Kui frowned and looked at the two Xiao generals, "Are you?" Looking at the cavalry troops in the distance, "General Yang ordered you to attack with me?"

"Yes, General Yang ordered us to attach General Jiang's wing tail!"

Jiang Kui waved his hand, "Since it's the general's order, I naturally have nothing to say. As long as you can follow my whirlwind camp, hehe, I can say that before. If you can't keep up, you can't catch up with the oil if you go too late, don't blame me!"

Xiao Tianhao, Xiao Tianyang looked at each other and thought to himself that you are a cavalry and I am also a cavalry. You have two soldiers and two horses, so is there any reason why you can't keep up? Qi Qi said: "General Jiang, don't worry, the Youyan army that followed us this time is elite, and will not drag the general back!"
