How could Wang Zhaoling not know what Wang Shangli, who had a close relationship with Sun Kewang of the East Mansion, had a plan to make a decision? If he really agreed with Wang Shangli's opinion and treated the decision of the East Mansion, it would be equivalent to admitting that Sun Kewang was the new king of the West.

If Sun Kewang is the new king, he is afraid that he will be the first to take down Prime Minister Wang, so Wang Zhaoling directly denied Wang Shangli's opinion.

The Minister of Personnel Hu Mo also called Bai Ri Imperial Camp to be frightened. He sat in the corner without saying a word. He took a closer look and noticed that his legs and feet were trembling slightly.

Wu Jishan, the Minister of Rites, who had always disagree with Wang Zhaoling, rarely supported this rival, believing that the civil and military officials of the West should now respect the queen, rather than respect the East Mansion in a remote manner.

The reason is not that Shangshu Wu wanted to show goodwill to Wang Zhaoling, but according to the etiquette system, even if the East Palace wants to be called the new emperor, he must obtain the consent of Empress Yang. After all, before, Lao Wansui just said that after his death, he would have to be the head of the East Palace, and he never said that the East Palace was the Prince of Daxi. Therefore, now he has to be regarded as the new emperor, which is incompatible with the etiquette.

Wang Ming, general of Bagua Camp, Hong Feilong, general of Zhenwu Camp, Song Guan, and others must have supported General Funan because they were commanded by Liu Wenxiu.

However, the generals of Longxing Camp Guo Jiawu, generals of Yongding Camp Guo Shangyi, generals of Sancai Camp Lou Wen and others supported Prime Minister Wang, and the other generals had different attitudes.

Wang Zhaoling and Liu Wenxiu had a fight for a while, but neither side could convince each other and parted ways.

The eunuch Wang Cheng secretly advised Prime Minister Wang not to fight for the useless words with General Funan in Wugong. He should return to Guyuan to directly order the army in the name of the Empress, and must rush to see the queen first before the Right Prime Minister Yan Ximing and others, saying that this is the root of it.

Wang Zhaoling thought it was the same, and Liu Wenxiuzhen agreed to return to Guyuan with him, which would also affect his original intention of controlling the government under the name of the queen. When he was constipated, he saw Dou Mingwang, the commander of the Imperial City Commander, and advised him to lead the troops back to Guyuan with him.

Dou Mingwang agreed after hesitation, so when Liu Wenxiu was discussing with Ma Yuanli, Wang Shangli and others how to defend against the Shun Army along with martial arts, Dou Mingwang commanded more than 20,000 troops from the Imperial Camp and suddenly drove away. Fourteen camps including Longxing Camp, Yongding Camp, Sancai Camp were also discovered that the Imperial Camp soldiers retreated westward and rushed out of the city. The rest of the Western Army camps who were unaware of the matter only thought that the Shun Army was attacking, but they were so scared that they ran out of the city.

When Liu Wenxiu and Wang Shangli and others reacted, most of the tens of thousands of troops inside and outside the city were dispersed, and the remaining battalions were panicked.

After finding out that it was Wang Zhaoling and Dou Mingwang that ran away, Liu Wenxiu was so angry that she wanted to cut the two of them with a knife. However, now that things have come to this, Wugong County Town cannot be defended, so she gritted her teeth and ordered the remaining troops to withdraw with him.

By the time Xin Sizhong led a thousand cavalry to the city of Wugong, the city was empty, and there were abandoned baggage and weapons everywhere inside and outside. Many flags and weapons were lost on the road to the west.

The overjoyed Xin Sizhong immediately ordered someone to return the news to the supervisor, and then led his troops to chase west despite their fatigue.

After chasing for more than ten miles, I found that there were a large number of Western infantry running on the road ahead. I found that Shun Army cavalry were chasing behind me, and these Western infantry were even more in chaos.

The Xin army forced thousands of Western troops to surrender without any effort. After asking the prisoners, he found that Liu Wenxiu was ahead, and Xin Sizhong chased after him without saying a word.

After chasing for several miles, the scene ahead made Xin Sizhong's heart pound. He saw tens of thousands of people walking westward on the winding road, and the team was so long that they could not see at a glance.

"Shunjun is catching up!"

The screams quickly rang out among the fleeing Western Army, which shocked the Western infantry to panic and rushed forward desperately despite the extreme congestion of the road, which made the already chaotic team even more chaotic.

As the Shun Army cavalry approached, many Western Army soldiers shouted in despair, and some fierce Western Army soldiers even began to draw their swords and kill their own people blocking the way.

"Don't be messed up, don't be messed up!"

Some sober Western Army generals and collegemen were trying hard to maintain order immediately, but they only thought that the Western Army soldiers chased by the Shun Army brigade had no appearance of elite soldiers. They were eager to escape and ignored the officer's shouting. A guerrilla who drew his sword to cut down the soldiers was dragged down from the horse by two red-eyed soldiers.

When the Shun Army cavalry rushed to the scene, the Western soldiers behind them did not even resist and knelt down and surrendered. The number of surrendered Western soldiers once made it difficult for the Shun Army cavalry to move forward, forcing Xin Sizhong to distribute some people to "organize" the Western soldiers to leave the official road so that he could continue to chase Liu Wenxiu.

But soon Xin Sizhong discovered that he was not enough, because there were too many surrendered Western troops. If the remaining hundreds of people were also assigned to gather surrendered troops, Xin Sizhong would have to chase Liu Wenxiu without a stick.

Wang Ziqi, the governor of the Western Army's rear army, played an important role at this time. He quickly found some familiar generals and schools from the surrendered army, and then asked these generals and schools to organize some trustworthy personnel to help the Shun Army gather.

With Wang Ziqi's help, Xin Sizhong was free to continue to lead people forward to chase.

There were more Western soldiers running away in front of them, and the bodies of Western soldiers who were killed by their own people could be seen from time to time on the road.

At this time, no one in the Western Army maintained order anymore. Everyone was running. Apart from betting on their own legs and feet, they were just betting on luck.

Liu Wenxiu looked back and saw that the pursuers were less than two or three miles away. Although he wanted to take these soldiers to escape, the facts were destined that he, General Funan, could not do as he wished. He could only abandon these elite Western troops and hurriedly flee to the west with a few elite cavalry.

The disappearance of General Funan and his party made the tens of thousands of Western Army completely become motherless children. The Xin army that rushed over was no longer chasing, but became a shelter team.

Even before they rushed over, there were already subordinates of the Western Army's generals sitting on the side of the road waiting for the Shun Army to accept it.

Roughly estimated, at least 20,000 to 30,000 Western Army surrendered to the Shun Army along the way. If Lu Si came here in person, he would be stunned.

Xin Sizhong was also shocked by the brilliant results. If the governor had not decisively ordered him to bring people to chase him first, how could he have gained such a great achievement!

But what disappointed Xin Sizhong again was that the big fish he wanted Liu Wenxiu still ran away, and he was worried that there were too many Western soldiers who surrendered. If they found that there were only a thousand Shun troops chasing them, they might be in a panic, so they ordered the pursuit to stop taking people back and shock the surrendered soldiers.

However, Xin Sizhong was still worried. In fact, many generals in the Western Army realized that there were not many people chasing Shun Army, but no one had the idea of ​​not surrendering because of this. They all sat honestly waiting for the arrival of Shun Army.

Zhang Xianzhong's death completely collapsed these elite Western Army.

The root of the Western Army's rank is also unwilling to fight again.
