The battle of Hai ended quickly, Songhai was killed, most of the soldiers under his command were killed and wounded, and the rest were some more agitated, and they immediately threw themselves when they saw that the situation was not good.

That's right, this was discussed between Yuan Fang and Wang Yong, Yuan Fang helped Wang Yong eradicate dissidents, and Wang Yong gave Yuan Fang a piece of military exploits, and each took what they needed for mutual benefit.

Yuan Fang's side was fighting lively, Tang Jian and Shi Ping were not idle, just as the battle had just started here, the Dongzhou soldiers who had already been prepared rushed into the city gate that had not yet been closed, and the soldiers guarding the city were shocked, and they just wanted to instinctively pick up arms to resist, but they were stopped by their own generals and fled to the east gate of Guangyuan City.

Guangyuan City was broken, a large number of troops of the Eastern Saint Empire poured into the county town, the people in the city were panicked and frightened, some of them fled from the east gate behind the defenders, and more dragged their families to hide at home and did not dare to go out.

As Shi Ping's cavalry troops entered the city, Guangyuan City was completely occupied by Yuan Fang, and the cavalry scattered everywhere to post Lu Bu to appease the people, and Tang Jian's Dongzhou army quickly took over the city defense and collected supplies, grain and grass.

In the early morning, when the Taiji army entered Guangyuan City after cleaning the battlefield, Guangyuan City had been completely controlled, and some merchants who had seen Anmin Lubu had the courage to open the door to welcome guests, and the people found that these so-called enemies did not harass them after a night of trembling, and some of the bold ones also began to walk the streets and alleys.

Yuan Fang's idea is very simple, according to the plan, the generals of Guangyuan City and even the entire Guangyuan County in the near future will be handed over to Dugu Zhen as the foundation for development, and the people here are the foundation of Dugu Zhen's development, so Yuan Fang did not embarrass these people too much, nor did he bother to appease and solicit, he was just a passerby, of course, Yuan Fang was not so polite to some wealthy merchants and officials in the city, under the guidance of the members of the dark night, he looted the money of those big families, uh, in fact, it was not counted, Yuan Fang did not do too much, At least they didn't destroy their property, and they were kind enough to leave them with basic necessities, at least they wouldn't starve to death.

Guangyuan County is also a relatively developed commercial city, there are many merchants, more for the rich and unkind, there are many officials abandoned by Wang Yong or something, one day, it only took one day for Yuan Fang to loot a lot of money, this is the biggest harvest since the expedition.

Collecting the spoils of war This is a fat difference, Yuan Fang did not monopolize it, in addition to letting Yuqing send two thousand female soldiers, he also transferred a lot of people from the Dongzhou Army and Shi Ping to carry out it at the same time, as for the inevitable soldiers hiding privately or something, as long as it is not excessive, Yuan Fang does not intend to pursue it, as long as it does not harass ordinary people, in this way, this looting army composed of various legions is hated to scrape once in Guangyuan City, Yuan Fang has made a lot of money, and the soldiers have also gained, it can be said that they are all happy, but they are suffering those rich officials and businessmen, Years of savings have been swept away, and many people have been down, but there are also many people who have persevered and finally made a comeback.

After a day's repair, Yuan Fang sat in Guangyuan County, and after Tang Jian left enough defensive strength, he set off with Shi Ping to 'chase' Wang Yong's remnants to the east. Five days later, Chen Xin led the vanguard of the new army of 50,000 to arrive, and the city defense of Guangyuan City was once again replenished, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as unbreakable.

On the tenth day of the occupation of Guangyuan County, Chang Xun led his iron cavalry to arrive, and this time there were three cavalry corps together, and behind, there were three infantry corps, these are the elite of the forbidden army of the Eastern Saint Empire, and the empire has only a total of more than 100,000 forbidden troops, and most of them were sent at once this time, which shows Yang Xing's determination.

On the fifteenth day, Tang Jian and Shi Ping returned, accompanied by Dugu Zhen, who had not been seen for a long time, and of course, Wang Yong was also indispensable.

Not long ago, according to the previous agreement, Wang Yong fled all the way to the east with the defeated soldiers, and finally arrived at Huaiyang County in Anping County after a few days of trekking, Wang Yong identified himself and took his troops into Chengcheng, and waited until Tang Jian and Shi Pingbing came to the city, Wang Yong and his henchmen suddenly made it difficult to seize control of the city gate, and let Tang Jian's army enter the city, Huaiyang County defenders were not much, Tang Jianzhi took a day to clear the recalcitrant enemy troops in the city, Shi Ping was guarding outside the city on all sides, intercepting and killing deserters, so to speak, The news of the fall of Huaiyang County was completely blocked.

Then, Wang Yong and Tang Jian used the same method to capture another county town again, and finally, before the enemy reacted, they successfully opened the communication channel with Dugu Zhen, and the two sides fought on both sides with one blow, repelling the enemy army besieging Dugu Zhen and got out of trouble, and Dugu Zhen, who had already been prepared, immediately led his army and family to leave Anping County and came to Guangyuan County.

This time, the booty brought back by Tang Jian was also rich enough, they looted and looted in Huaiyang County and Guangping County, and dozens of carriages were loaded with gold and silver property alone, which was acquiesced by Yuan Fang, because those county towns were only temporarily occupied, and they could not hold on with Dugu Zhen's troops, and sooner or later they would have to be hidden back by the Ningyuan Empire, so it didn't matter if they looted, they just took the sheep.

I haven't seen him for so long, Dugu Zhen has lost a lot of weight, but the perseverance in his eyes has not diminished at all, but has become more and more condensed.

What makes Yuan Fang admired is that after being trapped for such a long time, the soldiers and horses under Dugu Zhen's command not only did not decrease sharply as imagined, but faintly increased, and after inquiring, he learned that Dugu Zhen with his unique personality charm and constantly exposed and criticized the corruption of the empire, and recruited many like-minded people to join, and now, there are nearly 40,000 horses under his command, and they are all experienced elites, and their loyalty is extremely terrifying.

Dugu Zhen had a very hard time during this time, with a shortage of food and grass, and a serious shortage of weapons and armor, so he was broken and couldn't hold out, otherwise, if they had enough equipment, they would not be without the strength to fight.

Since Dugu's real strength is like this, Yuan Fang can rest assured that Guangyuan County and Lihua County will be handed over to Dugu Zhen to take care of, of course, the land of the two counties is not given for nothing, according to the plan, Dugu really wants to resist and contain the Ningyuan Empire, if possible, he will also help contain and deter and even send troops to cooperate with the attack on the Yuanhe Empire, which is also the foundation of the cooperation between the two sides.

At this point, Dugu Zhen had already made a decision, and promised that if one day he could unify the Ningyuan Empire, he would advance and retreat with the Eastern Sage Empire, resist the invasion of foreign enemies together, develop together, and communicate with each other.

Yuan Fang did not ask Dugu Zhen to bow down, it was an insult for such a proud person, he also believed that Dugu was really a human being, and he would not break his oath, at least not when he was alive, this was enough for the Eastern Saint Empire, as long as there was a period of buffer, Yuan Fang was confident that the Eastern Saint Empire would become the top military and commercial power in the whole continent.
