It is not difficult for the army of Badun to attack a small county town.

Especially if you get a small county like Lecheng County, it is not a problem.

However, because in order to vent their anger, their soldiers and horses stayed in Lecheng County for a long time.

It took two days to completely slaughter the people of Lecheng County, and thousands of women and children were escorted to the Youzhou area and thrown to the various tribes of the Karasuma people.

After Hejian County was lost in Lecheng County, it basically couldn't be saved.

Soon, in the next few days, Yuan Xi and the Karasuma army of Bunton took advantage of the situation to occupy the entire Hejian County.

The loss of Hejian County was not good news for Yuan Shang, and even when he heard that these Karasuma people were even more angry after the slaughter of the city in Lecheng County, Yuan Shang was still somewhat fortunate after learning that his generals had not lost too much.

"Lecheng County has been occupied by Yuan Xi's men?"

Yuan Shang looked at Wen Chou and Jiang Qi who had withdrawn from the front line, and couldn't help but ask.

Although he only lost more than 10,000 people, he was still a little nervous when he heard the news.

"Young master, the last general is ashamed of you, 20,000 troops, heavy losses, and also lost Lecheng County, please punish the young master."

Jiang Qi took the initiative to stand up and directly stopped the sin this time.

However, Yuan Shang did not intend to dispose of Jiang Qi, although Jiang Qi was reactive, he was not too at fault.

After all, with only 20,000 horses, it is indeed very difficult to block the soldiers and horses of Yuan Xi and the Karasuma people.

This is not so easy to do, even if it is given to anyone.

Yuan Shang is not good at blaming Jiang Qi for this crime, and the current Yuan Shang is already lacking good generals, if he chills the hearts of Jiang Qi's veterans, I am afraid that it will not be good.

So Yuan Shang did not blame Jiang Qi for this problem.

"General Jiang Qi is serious, this battle is not your fault, but we are already weaker than Yuan Xi, Yuan Xi came this time to loot grain and grass, but fortunately, we have precautions in advance, there should not be much grain and grass for him to snatch in Hejian County."

Yuan Shang had already given an order before, and let the people around him move some of the territories near Hejian near Youzhou and all the villages outside the city, and there was no need to reserve too much grain and grass in the city.

Therefore, even if Lecheng County was breached, the grain and grass that Badun and Yuan Xi could snatch were very limited.

It is precisely because of this situation that Badun and Yuan Xi will kill people to vent their anger.

"You continue to send troops and horses, stationed in Qinghe County, as long as we hold Qinghe, we still have the strength to fight, besides, the troops of General Xu Huang and General Tai Shici have arrived here, and now our troops should be on par with the enemy, if the two sides really want to fight, the outcome is not yet known!"

Yuan Shang also began to become more confident because of the addition of Xu Huang and Tai Shici.

Qinghe County is already the second line of defense prepared by Yuan Shang, once Qinghe County is also breached, then Yuan Xi's men and horses and soldiers can directly approach Yecheng.

"Young master, don't worry, even if the last general dies, he will definitely defend Qinghe County!"

Jiang Qi said that, he took the order and went back to Qinghe to guard it directly.

Yuan Shang nodded, which can be regarded as a little relieved.

With Jiang Qi and Wen Chou guarding Qinghe, Qinghe has more than 30,000 soldiers and horses stationed, although it is not foolproof, but it has some ability to protect itself.

After all, it's just defense, not taking the initiative, and this bit of manpower is not weak.

Zhongshan and Bohai County, next to the Qinghe River, may suffer even more tragic attacks.

After seizing Hejian County, Jizhou was equivalent to being torn apart by these Karasuma people, and their soldiers and horses could go directly to Zhongshan Country from Hejian County to the west and enter Bohai County to the east.

However, Bohai County, with Tai Shici and Xu Huang's soldiers and horses stationed recently, has completely taken over the defense of Bohai County, and Yuan Xi and Dun Dun's soldiers and horses are not so easy to enter Bohai County.

Therefore, Yuan Xi, who did not get much grain and grass in the river, most likely sent his soldiers and horses to Zhongshan Kingdom.

Zhongshan Country, there are not many soldiers and horses here, because this was not a place under military control before.

There are many business families here, and business here is relatively prosperous.

The Zhen family under Liu Zheng is mainly active here.

It's just that later, the affairs of the Yuan brothers became more and more serious, and after Zhongshan became the main battlefield, commercial activities here began to slow down.

The Zhen family also gradually withdrew their base camp from here to Jianye.

Of course, there are still some Zhen family members left here, after all, every year they will buy horses from the Xianbei tribe in the north through Zhongshan.

It was through this horse transportation route that the Zhen family transported a lot of war horses to Liu Zheng every year.

In the courtyard of the Zhen family.

Zhen Yao, the third master of the Zhen family, had news that after knowing that Hejian County next door had been attacked by Yuan Xi, Zhen Yao's face became a little ugly.

"Third master, something is wrong, Yuan Xi's men and horses have broken through the river, and it is estimated that they will sweep Jizhou."

The descendants of the Zhen family hurriedly ran over the news and told Zhen Yao.

Zhen Yao, who heard the news, changed his face slightly.

Although he had already known a few days ago that Yuan Xi's soldiers and horses were attacking in Hejian County.

But when he learned the news, he still couldn't help but feel worried about the safety of Jizhou.

Yuan Xi really shot at Jizhou this time. I just don't know if Jizhou can block Yuan Xi's attack. ”

"Third master, what should we do?"

The subordinate immediately asked Zhen Yao.

After all, they still have a lot of forces in Zhongshan County, and if they don't withdraw in time, they won't be able to get away when Yuan Xi's men and horses come here.

Zhen Yao knew that he couldn't stay here anymore.

immediately commanded his subordinates.

"Quick, immediately transfer all our assets near Zhongshan to Qingzhou!"

Zhen Yao was instructing his servants to prepare to evacuate from Zhongshan.

But at this time, their Zhen family went outside and quickly ran a war horse.

It's so rushing, it's fast.

After arriving at Zhen's house, he shouted directly at Zhen's house, wanting to meet Zhen Yao.

Zhen Yao is naturally not something that everyone can see.

However, the comer is aggressive, and it is not easy to mess with at first glance.

Those servants didn't dare to offend, and immediately went to inform Zhen Yao.

Zhen Yao walked out of the house in confusion.

He didn't know who it was.

Curiously asked the man.

"Your Excellency?"

The person who came was masked and dressed in black.

He didn't speak, just pulled a token from his waist.

Zhen Yao's face changed greatly after seeing it.
