In the city of Ji County, Hanyang County, Wei Duan looked at Yang Fu who had fled in front of him and was stunned for a moment.

"Failed? How could it be defeated?" Wei Duan looked at Yang Fu who was entrusted with the important task in front of him. He still can't believe this is a fact. "Didn't you just set off?"

"We...we are incompetent and cannot live up to your trust!"

Yang Fu thought for a long time but really didn't know what words to use to explain how he did it. He had only been out for a few days and had not even left Hanyang County.

I just came back here with the news of defeat...

Even Yang Fu still remembers that before he set off, he told Wei Duan with great dignity that he would definitely win this battle and still...

This is simply excessive!

"Huh~" Wei Duan tried hard to steady his breathing. He had seen strong winds and waves and knew that he must not be too anxious now.

After dozens of deep breaths, Wei Duan finally allowed his face to return to normal.

"Where have those Di people gone now?"

"How are the Di people in Longyou? Is there any turmoil?"

"Where are the Di people this time, from Wudu...or are they also from Yinping's Lei Ding?"

A series of questions directly made Yang Fu look ugly again. He is not very clear about these questions now...

Fortunately, Yang Fu is not a fool yet and knows that now is not the time to pretend.

"Please forgive me, we are not very clear about the enemy's situation right now.

However, the general had already been investigated before, and the leader was Fa Zheng, a native of Fufeng County, who had fled to Xichuan due to famine.

I heard that he became the military commander of Xichuan, and then...then...now it seems that Liu Xuande surrendered..."

"Fa Zheng...is that Mr. Xuande's grandson?"

"Exactly this person!" Yang Fu nodded repeatedly, "He was also a famous scholar in Fufeng back then, and he has always been evaluated as a smart person in Fufeng.

It's a pity that after escaping into Xichuan, there was almost no sound..."

"I don't care about his condition." Wei Duan was not with Zhong Yao during this period, so he had just learned about Fazheng's identity, "Is that person now the military advisor beside Ma Chao and Zhang Fei?"

"It should be this person."

"No wonder it's so difficult..." Wei Duan sighed again, "He and Ma Chao are both Fufeng people. Even though they can't be said to be familiar with each other, they understand each other well.

On the contrary, we underestimated Na Ma Mengqi. Originally, you could appear as a surprise force in the future.

I never thought that now..."

Wei Duan said that there was nothing more to say here. Now that the matter has come to this point, there is no point in saying anything more.

After sighing again, Wei Duan immediately started a series of commands.

Let the scouts go to find out the news, find a way to contact Zhong Yao in Chang'an to discuss this, recruit soldiers again to prepare for war, etc.

In addition, he even directly sent his son Wei Kang, who succeeded him as the governor of Liangzhou, to Jincheng County in person, hoping to get Han Sui to send troops.

He even asked him to bring the person he relied on most, Yang Fu!

Before leaving, Wei Duan said his last words directly to his son....

"Kang'er, you have always been talented. Although your father has been quite strict with you over the years, he has always believed that your talent is better than being a father.

A few years ago, my father wanted to go to court to rest in peace, but he never thought that he would get involved in the chaos of Yongliang.

Now my father knows that the law of filial piety is coming fiercely, and it may not be a good thing.

But since my father has been greatly favored by the court and the Prime Minister, there is absolutely no possibility of surrendering to the enemy..."

Wei Duan also looked miserable when he said this, but he still said the last sentence.

"If you are really unlucky to be a father, and Han Sui refuses... and refuses to send troops to help, then you should find a way to return to the court and the Prime Minister!

Remember, if I have an old relationship with Zhong Yuanchang and Xun Wen, they will definitely treat your brothers well!"

"Father..." Wei Kang burst into tears after hearing these words, "Father..."

"Don't act like a little girl, go quickly!"

After saying these last words to his son, Wei Duan watched with his own eyes Wei Kang galloping away in the direction of Jincheng.

And he mobilized all the soldiers and horses into Ji County, preparing to fight to the death with Nafa Xiaozhi...

On February 11, the 15th year of Jian'an, Fa Xiaozhi led his troops into Ji County, and then immediately launched a desperate attack on Ji County.

The two sides fought fiercely for seven days, and finally Agui, the Di king of Xingguo, took the lead in ascending to the top of the city, and joined forces with Lei Tong, a Mengshi among the Yinping Di people, to break through the gate of Ji County.

After a stick of incense, the street fighting began. The Di people's coalition forces officially entered the city, and the people of Ji County also voluntarily joined the battle.

Faced with such tenacious resistance, Fazheng did not hesitate and issued the order directly.

"All...all those who resist are enemies!"

As soon as these words came out, this Hebei County began a tragic beginning, and a river of blood became inevitable.

An hour later, the battle in Ji County ended completely. The former Liangzhou Mu Wei Duan died in the battle, and he continued to shout the words to kill the thieves before his death.

Almost all the generals under his command were killed or injured, and few of the soldiers surrendered.

As for the people of Hebei County, tens of thousands of people were killed or injured, many of whom were innocently affected by the rebellion...

Looking at the rivers of blood in Ji County, looking at Wei Duan still standing after his death, and looking at this extremely tragic battlefield, even Fazheng has no happy thoughts.

"Instruct all ministries not to disturb the people!"

"In addition, soldiers and horses from all departments attacked in all directions to capture Hanyang County as quickly as possible."

"And..." Fazheng looked at the miserable scene, and finally sighed silently, "No matter it is Ji County or anywhere, strictness is disturbing the people!"

"No!" Agui and others immediately agreed after hearing this. The successive fights had given them deep trust in Fazheng.

Of course, this kind of trust is different from Ma Chao. For Ma Chao, they knew they would die but still would not hesitate to charge forward.

They feel more at ease with Fa Zheng. As long as they stay with Fa Zheng and fight in the battlefield mountains, they will feel much safer.

Therefore, they naturally did not hesitate at all regarding Fa Zheng's order.

As Fazheng watched the situation gradually reverse, he finally sent people to Chang'an to prepare for Ma Chao's general and cousin Ma Dai to be retrieved.

He promised to give this Hanyang County to Ma Chao. They had no chance of establishing a foothold in Yongliang, so he would not miss any of this.

Now that the weather has begun to warm up, he must find a way to finish the last thing.

"Next step... Mr. Zhong, I will personally send you off to Chang'an and Yongliang!"
