Refugees continue to move south.

However, they were intercepted by the Black Cloud Army and sent back to Chenliu for resettlement. There were thirty to forty thousand people in total.

So far, Black Cloud Mountain has absorbed nearly 140,000 refugees, and there are still 50,000 to 60,000 refugees on the way south.

There were corpses everywhere in Yanzhou and Qingzhou.

Li Yue sighed in his heart. He had tried his best. If he wanted to blame them, they could only blame them for not being able to see the situation clearly.

"Instruct all counties and counties to collect and bury the corpses of the refugees. They must not be exposed in the wild, let alone thrown into the river."

In the weather in May and June, the daytime temperature rises and the corpses are not handled properly, which can cause plague.

Li Yue's thunderous tactics in Lu County greatly shocked surrounding counties.

After the order was issued, the scout battalion inspected each county. Taishan County in the east and Dongjun in the north. No one dared to disobey wherever the black cloud red flag passed.

The body was collected and laid to rest.

Li Yue's prestige also penetrated everywhere bit by bit.

Within a few days, word spread about Li Yue's worship at the Confucius Temple, winning goodwill from various places.

Rencheng, Dongping, and Jiyang successively hoisted the black cloud red flag. At this point, half of the counties in Yanzhou surrendered to Li Yue.

Liu Qi still has the four counties of Dongjun, Gaoping, Taishan, and Jibei in his hands. He also holds the richest Dongjun and Taishan counties in Yanzhou. In terms of overall strength, he is still stronger.

But overall strength is not equal to combat power.

Li Yueruo had Dongjun and Mount Tai at his fingertips regardless of the cost. He simply did not want Yanzhou to suffer another military disaster. Once a war broke out, Yanzhou's remaining vitality would disappear.

The surrounding forces will be even more ready to move.

"Diao Huai, the prefect of Jiyang, and Gaotangyan, the prime minister of Dongping, are all good officials. However, Qi Min, the prime minister of Rencheng, has poor conduct and is greedy and violent. This time the refugees went south, and he robbed and killed the most. Now our army is strong, and the country of Rencheng is

Caught between Jiyin and Lujun, we had no choice but to surrender." Cui Jin had worked hard on Yanzhou in private, otherwise he wouldn't know it well.

"No matter what his character is, if you surrender to me now, don't touch him for the time being. Send the Black Cloud General to settle in first, and then take care of him later."

Things happened step by step. Li Yue took in the refugees and worshiped at the Confucius Temple. People with insight could still see it.

This is how people's hearts gather little by little.

Comparing the north and south of the river, which force can do this?

"General, the grain and grass transported by the two counties of Jiyang and Dongping to the front line have been transported to the city. The officials of the two counties asked the general how to deal with it?" Yang Lue, the personal guard, came to report.

Li Nong had 20,000 horsemen and grain and grass collected from Yan and Xu prefectures on the spot.

Since the two counties of Jiyang and Dongping have joined Heiyun Mountain, they naturally have to listen to Li Yue's orders.

Cui Jin's eyes lit up, and before he spoke, Li Yue shook his head, "Li Nong has just captured Daibei, and there is no shortage of food on hand. Even if there is no food from Yanzhou, he can still collect it from nearby Liang, Pei, Langya and other places.

It’s no use to be a villain.”

Cui Jin cupped his hands and said, "General, you are wise."

Chu Pei stationed troops in Pengcheng and invaded Qingyan, which threatened Li Yue even more.

This time, 200,000 refugees went south, Wang Hao surrendered in the spring of 2016, and Liu Qi wanted to return to Yanzhou, which shows the influence of the Jiangdong court.

Li Nong rushed in front, but Li Yue couldn't get what he wanted.

It is in the best interest of Heiyun Mountain that both sides continue to spend money.

However, the situation in Huaibei took a turn for the worse in two or three days.

Li Yue was stunned by the news sent back by the scouts from the front line.

The Zhao army, which had won the first battle, approached Pengcheng, showed off its power, and assumed an siege posture.

Chu Pei retreated like this. Not a single one of the 30,000 elite Jin troops was left behind. They all retreated to Huainan and handed over Pengcheng. They didn't even have the courage to touch Li Nong.

What was even more jaw-dropping was what was happening behind them. The Jin army in Xiapi also withdrew.

Li Yue thought that it would be enough to retreat to Huainan.

However, there is no bottom line for Jiangdong's corruption. Seeing Chu Pei escaping with his tail between his legs, Chen Kui, the commander-in-chief of Shanxi Province, actually set Shouchun on fire and led his troops back to Jiangbei.

Chen Kui is the descendant of the Chen family in Yingchuan, and his great-grandfather is Chen Qun, a famous official of the Cao Wei Dynasty.

In Lu City, Li Yue and Cui Jin looked at each other. The situation changed so fast that people were caught off guard.

Li Nongbing regained all the lost land without bloodshed.

Cui Jin's last hope for Jiangdong also disappeared. "Jie and Zhao were attacked on three sides, with internal and external troubles. Scholars and people on both sides of the river yearned for the Jiangdong court day and night. People's hearts were in Jin. It was a good opportunity to restore their homeland. However, Chu Pei did not fire an arrow.

If we can't send out troops, we just retreat... How can we be worthy of the Northern people who are so eager to see us, and how can we be worthy of the 60,000 refugees who went south to die in vain?"

Chu Pei was in a good situation, but he ran away. In a way, he not only cheated the 60,000 refugees, but also Li Yue.

There was also Shi Chong's army of hundreds of thousands, which was wiped out in one battle...

It would take Shi Min ten days and a half to catch even hundreds of thousands of pigs, right?

The two of them fell off like this, which actually highlighted Li Yue.

"Isn't this sending General Wang Kong and Li Mai to the north? You can't say that you can't send out an army." Li Yue only remembered the general deeds of Ran Min, Murong Ke, Murong Chui, Huan Wen, Xie An, Wang Meng, and Fu Jian.

I don’t have much impression of Chu Pei.

Wei Shan scolded: "I originally thought Chu Pei was a person, but when I saw him today, he looked like a rat!"

"Chu Pei is the father of Empress Dowager Chu and is famous in the south of the Yangtze River. How can he bleed in front of the two armies like a trafficker and a pawn?" Cui Jin mocked.

"As soon as Chu Pei retreats, the Zhao army becomes more powerful. Be on guard against his attempts to plot against us! Order the national defenders of Jiyang, Dongping, and Rencheng counties as well as the southern armies from all over the country to assist in the defense of Lu County!" Li Yue did not let go of any of the integrated troops.

Chance.

A famous scout rushed away and sent the news to various places.

The entire Yanzhou formed a whirlpool with Lu County as the center, and soldiers from the county, state, and southern armies gathered one after another.

The garrison troops from Jiyang and Dongping counties came in accordance with the order. Qi Min of Rencheng State was indeed indifferent and only sent a letter, saying that the thieves in the territory were causing disturbance and had no time to visit eastward, and asked Li Yue to forgive the crime.

However, at this time Li Nong was heading north with his army, and Li Yue had no time to pay attention to Ren Chengguo for the time being.

Before Li Nong arrived, military orders had arrived, asking Li Yue to come to Xuexian County in person to see him.

"The last time we were in Xingyang, Li Nong had the intention to murder the general. I'm afraid he didn't have good intentions when he summoned him this time." Wei Shan's face was gloomy. He called him by his first name, and there was no trace of respect in his tone.

Cui Jin said: "Sikong uses this as an excuse. If the general goes, he will be captured. If he doesn't go, he will be given a hand. The counties in the territory that have just returned will definitely think that the general is timid."

Li Nong's official position was to be the Governor of Tuinan, and all the people in Qingyan, Henan and Xu Yang in the south of the river were dispatched.

This is not the only bad news, the battle at Pingji in the north also has a winner.

Shi Min was indeed the Shi Min in the history books. In the First World War, he smashed the rocks and charged into an army of 130,000 people, killing more than 20,000 people in formation. Shi Chong himself was captured in Yuanshi County, and all the 30,000 captured soldiers were killed in a trap.

Shi Min's evil reputation shocked the world.

After pacifying Shichong, they immediately led 20,000 elite infantry and cavalry southward. They had already reached Pingyuan County and were about to cross the Yellow River. Their frontline was pointed directly to the east of Yanzhou.

This means that Li Yue will face huge pressure from both the north and the south at the same time.

All the generals looked at Li Yue.

If there was only one Li Nong, it wouldn't be difficult to deal with him.

But Shi Min is famous for his evil reputation.

In this battle, Li Yue knew that Shi Min would win, but he didn't expect that he would win so easily.

Shi Chong was vulnerable. After Chu Pei lost the first battle, he ran away with his tail between his legs. He gave the important towns on both sides of the Huai River to Li Nong in vain...

"The general has a good relationship with Shi Min, why don't we send someone to accommodate him?" Wei Shan said innocently.
