"Dangdangdang...... "The gongs and drums of Fengzhou City are noisy, if you listen carefully, in fact, they are not all gongs and drums, and there are also things like iron pots mixed with them.

Chaotic shouting filled the streets and alleys of Toyosu City, and I didn't know where the source of the news was. In short, there were countless people running to tell each other, and it didn't take long for the news of Chen Yingquan's annihilation of Xifeng Bulai to spread throughout the city, and although those shouts were chaotic, the feelings were extremely sincere.

"Datang Wansheng!"

"Long live Datang!"

"The Tang Dynasty is mighty!"

"The general is mighty!"

Although Li Daozong and Chu Suiliang, the two difficult brothers, did not fight because of serious injuries. However, Li Daozong, the envoy of the Guanjun Army, is one with the Lingzhou Army. As long as the Lingzhou army wins the battle, the credit will always be given to him, the envoy of the army, and no one can erase it.

Chu Suiliang showed an expression like constipation, and he didn't understand why Li Daozong was so excited at this time. Chen Ying not only humiliated him and Li Daozong by roll call, but also let the soldiers of the Lingwu Army beat them severely. If Chen Ying didn't win the battle, he still had a chance to take revenge.

But seeing that Chen Yingwu won this battle, but instead captured the fine seal Bulai alive, and also wiped out all the elite soldiers of the Dangxiang clan, I am afraid that in the future, the Dangxiang clan will completely disappear like the large and small tribes on the grassland. For such a great hero who recovered hundreds of miles of Fengzhou's land, even if it was a harsh imperial history in Chang'an City, he would not impeach such a great hero.

After all, no one wants to be a traitor.

Chu Suiliang looked at the excited Li Daozong incomprehensibly and said, "Why is Duke Luoyang so excited? โ€

Li Daozong was even more strange about Chu Suiliang at this time, he even doubted whether Chu Suiliang was a Turkic species, obviously the Tang Dynasty won and the Turks were defeated, but Chu Suiliang was like a dead father, like a mourner.

Li Daozong said: "Of course you're excited, why aren't you excited?" This is a big victory, two thousand against thirty thousand, aren't you excited? โ€

Regarding Chen Ying's achievements, Chu Suiliang scoffed. Obviously, there are more than 20,000 people under Chen Ying's command, but all the rumors on the street are Chen Ying's 2,000 to 30,000. In fact, Chen Ying's luck was really good, with the annihilation of the entire army of the Xifeng Bu Lai Division, but Yu Guni let Tuoba Yu lead four or five hundred remnants of the party to escape.

Here Yu Guni heard that Chen Yingquan had annihilated the fine seal Bu Lai, and he didn't even catch a small minion Tuoba Yu. Yu Guni, who had nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses, was also ruthless, leaving more than 2,000 lightly and seriously wounded to clean up the battlefield, and he led more than 8,000 men and horses all the way to Tuoba Yun.

Yu Guni didn't know what to think, so he poured out his anger on the Turkic tribes he encountered, whether they resisted or not, the tribal leaders and nobles were all killed, and the nobles' cattle and sheep and wealth, except for supplementing needs, distributed all the rest to those oppressed Turkic herdsmen.

In this way, Yu Guni also hugged the grass and beat rabbits, solving more than a dozen large and small tribes along the way. Tuoba Yu ran to Baicheng (the old city of Tongwancheng), and Yu Guni chased after Baicheng.

Tuoba Yoo had no intention of fighting at this time, and abandoned the city and fled. Yu Guni did not spend a single soldier to recover Baicheng. At this time, Tuoba Yu ran to Xiazhou again, which was Liu Wuzhou's territory. The Turkic generals naturally did not turn away, but Tuoba Yun entered Xiazhou City. That's the trouble. Because Chen Ying's army was in the process of pursuit, its reputation had already spread, killing nobles and dividing cattle and sheep.

Although Xiazhou is now under the rule of Liang Shidu, the Liang division is only a land of 28 counties in three states, and has used troops again and again, which has already forced the people of Xiazhou to suffer unspeakably. Even if you kill the nobles, you can divide the cattle and sheep. So what's so polite?

The people of Xia County suddenly rioted, not only almost all the poor people of Xia Prefecture participated, but even more than 3,000 Liang troops also mutinied overnight, not only killing all the officials appointed by the Liang Division in the city, but also tying up the remnants of Tuoba Yu and other remnants and handing them over to the Yu Gu Ni Department who came later.

Chu Sui's conscience said sourly: "The foolish people and foolish women spread false rumors, and the Duke of Luoyang also believes it?" โ€

Li Daozong said: "How can you not believe it? The martial arts hou fought bloodily, recovered Shengzhou, Changzhou, and Xiazhou, and captured more than 20,000 people and beheaded more than 10,000 people in captives alone, which is not false at all! โ€

looked at Li Daozong's eyebrows dancing and dancing. Chu Suiliang said with a gloomy face: "It's not 2,000 enemies and 30,000 enemies, although the specific battle situation is still unclear, but General Chen should have first coerced the Turkic troops to surrender and strengthen the troops, and then used some tricks to force the army of Liang Shidu, in fact, what he defeated was only eight or nine thousand people who were finely sealed Bulai." โ€

Chu Suiliang is worthy of being a smart person, and he used his incomplete information to deduce Chen Ying's actions, and he actually hit the ground running, if Chen Ying was here, he would definitely be quite impressed.

But Li Daozong was not interested at all: "How did General Chen win, anyway, when he left Lingzhou, he took more than 1,800 people from the sixth fold of the Dingyuan army, and the five fold chong mansions of the Dingyuan army were still in Lingzhou, so he rushed to fight a decisive battle with the fine seal Bu Lai, and the result was ......"

In fact, Li Daozong didn't have Chu Suiliang's mind, anyway, Chen Ying gave him a great credit, as long as he operated it properly, he would be promoted to the next level, from the Duke of Luoyang County to the Duke of the Kingdom, it should not be difficult.

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

Chen Ying was not an immortal, so he naturally didn't know that Tong Lifushe, who was far away in the camel city, was so angry that he vomited blood because he heard the news of the annihilation of the entire army of Xifeng Bulai. At the same time, he didn't know that Chu Suiliang cursed him for failing because he hated him for insulting Chu Suiliang.

But he knew that Li Xiuning, who was far away in Weize Pass, was in a very bad situation.

Chen Ying did not doubt Li Xiuning's ability to lead the army to fight, nor did he doubt that Li Xiuning could not hold the Weize Pass. But Chen Ying was worried that Li Xiuning's own weakness would be exploited. Sun Tzu's Art of War has a cloud: Therefore, there will be five dangers, you must die and kill, you must live and be captured, you can be insulted by anger, you can be humiliated by being honest, and you can be annoyed by loving the people. Among them, "honesty can be humiliated" and "love the people is annoying" are the most difficult hurdles to overcome, and many famous generals are planted on them.

Li Xiuning's biggest weakness is the same as Li Dingguo, the king of Jin in the Southern Ming Dynasty. Loving the people is annoying. When Li Dingguo attacked Guangdong for the second time, he attacked Xinhui and was about to break the city, and the Qing army in the city suddenly drove the people to launch a counter-charge...... Li Dingguo is benevolent and loves the people, how do the people of Xinhui repay him? These ordinary people were afraid that Li Dingguo would not be able to hold the Xinhui after he conquered it, and the Qing army would slaughter the city bloodily after the Qing army came back, so they resolutely helped the Qing army to defend the city and swore to resist Li Dingguo.

In fact, Li Xiuning is the same, if the battle formation is clear, Li Xiuning will not lose. At least it is not a problem to hold the reed pass. But Xun Xiang accidentally found that Li Xiuning actually did not order to shoot those people who were driven to fill in the trenches.

accidentally discovered this Li Xiuning's weakness, and Xunxiang decided to infinitely magnify Li Xiuning's weakness. The more Li Xiuning did not give the order to release the arrows, he deliberately captured a group of old and weak women and children, and ordered them to attach ants to attack the city with their children, and in the face of these or old and weak women and children, Li Xiuning put these people on the wall, and then gave them food and let them rest in the city. Since then, the number of people who surrender to Li Xiuning every day has become bigger and bigger, which is like a deadly noose, strangling Li Xiuning's neck tighter and tighter.

Every time passes, Li Xiuning will be in danger.

Seeing that Yu Guni took Changzhou and Xiazhou without much effort, as long as Chen Ying was willing, he could wipe out Liang Shidu with his troops. Destroying a country and capturing the puppet emperor Liang Shidu, what a great credit this is, even if you don't use your head and knees, you can think of it. Chen Ying did not hesitate at this time. Resolutely ordered Yu Guni to garrison Xiazhou and stop advancing.
