In fact, at this time, Prince Jing's power was actually quite embarrassing.
After annexing the remaining imperial power of Huangfu Mingzhao, his power expanded dramatically.
However, he lacked generals who were good at fighting.
Many of the generals of Huangfu Mingzhao's remnant imperial power were killed in the course of the war. Of those who were left, only a few, including Feng Yihan, were actually useful.
In the beginning, You Suifeng, because he underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, suffered an unprecedented setback for the imperial power. As the main responsible person, after he was dismissed from power, he was so depressed that he became bedridden.
It was the last battle in life, but it was full of stains, and due to my age, and the reason why I had left home, I couldn’t get through that winter that year.
Xue Jikai, one of the Three Dragon Generals who came out later, was originally a retired general. It was because of the old emperor that he returned to fight for the imperial court with a lot of old bones.
But he was getting older, and he felt exhausted mentally and physically on the battlefield. When he saw Huangfu Mingzhao's head being taken out, he couldn't even breathe. After that, he was bedridden for many years, and his body was really bone-shattering for a year.
Not as good as a year.
And even among the few people, including Feng Yihan, Prince Jing was always wary of them.
For example, this time, with Feng Yihan's talent, he could lead the army alone. However, King Jing did not dare to hand over 80,000 troops to someone he could not fully trust, so he could only let him be second to the deputy general.
Fortunately, Ye Xiaoying also has the talent of a general.
As a character in a certain random summoning card, Ye Xiaoying's implanted identity was quite good. He was directly implanted into Prince Jing's brother-in-law and a member of the Ye family, one of the three major families in Heyang Dao.
With his status and talent, it is of course easy for him to take advantage of the situation.
In just a few years, he had already been promoted to a general in the army.
King Jing did not personally lead the troops. He actually followed Yuan Shouxin's suggestion and stationed himself on Henan Road to guard against Zhenxi Mansion in the west.
Secondly, it was also to observe the battle situation in the north.
Although the two sides have basically formed a dual-power alliance, it can almost be said that Wang Yingkan has been stationed in the imperial capital Tianjing for a long time to maintain this alliance.
But the world is bustling with people, everyone comes for profit, and everyone leaves for profit.
Li Shikai of Hedong Road sent troops to attack Hebei at this time. King Jing also wanted to see if Wang Yu's troops and horses guarding the pass would be mobilized!
Once he really has a chance to get this portal back, he will naturally not be soft-hearted and will not take into account any alliance relationships.
Even if Wang Yingcai keeps slipping up, he won't let others give up his life to you.
Weiguan Pass is to Henan Province what Hangu Pass is to the Qin State during the Warring States Period, and Hulao Pass is to Luoyang during the Eastern Han Dynasty. Such an important place, if you really have the opportunity to take it back, you still have to take into account those things that have been done.
What?
Therefore, it has to be said that Wang Anshi, under such great pressure on Ningping Road, never thought of asking for help from the Weiguan troops across the river, which fully demonstrated his political foresight.
However, the troops and horses of Weiguan have not been mobilized. Prince Jing's thoughts in this regard have been completely failed.
……………………
Tianlang Pass.
Wang Yu officially asked Xue Rengui to hand over half of the tiger talisman of the Tianlang Pass guard, and handed over the half of the tiger talisman to the new Tianlang Pass guard, Li Jing.
Tianlang Pass is home to the Zhendong Army's 100,000 troops all year round. Except for a few special circumstances, the number of soldiers and horses here has never fallen below this number.
In other words, the person who serves as the guard general of Tianlang Pass will actually become the first person among the 300,000 Zhendong Army, excluding the Zhendong General, to be in charge of the 100,000 Zhendong Army.
And this half piece of tiger talisman represents not only the power of the Tianlang Pass guard, but also the restriction on him.
If the soldiers and horses of Tianlang Pass want to be mobilized during non-war times, they must have a tiger in order to have this right.
They only recognize the tiger talisman but not the order. Before the tiger talisman arrives, Tianlang Pass will not accept any order to mobilize troops, unless the general of Zhendong personally arrives at the scene to give the order.
As for the remaining half of the Tiger Talisman, it is of course in the hands of every Zhendong General.
During this war, Li Jing replaced Wang Yu and temporarily took on the task of giving orders many times. Tianlang Pass has been impregnable for so long, and Li Jing has a lot of credit.
Coupled with Dongyi's thousands-mile attack and his outstanding performance in blocking the enemy in the Battle of Xirong, he was promoted to this position, officially surpassing Su Dingfang and Zhang Liao who were more senior than him.
Then, Wang Yu personally led 20,000 black cavalry to the troop carrier that was already waiting there, and headed towards Hebei Road at the fastest speed without stopping.
Wang Yu did not have many soldiers and horses, only 20,000 black cavalry. As for the remaining 10,000 black cavalry under Guo Dongshan's command, they were one of the standing defenders of Tianlang Pass.
One-third of the Zhendong Army's troops are stationed at Tianlang Pass all year round, and one of the three Black Cavalry Divisions is rarely transferred away from Tianlang Pass.
This time, Wang Yu did not lead many generals, only Xue Rengui, the commander of the black cavalry, and Ye Jiyang, one of the three commanders of the black cavalry.
After that, only Li Yuanba, Yuwen Chengdu, Guan Yu, Chu Qingtian, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Lu Junyi, Taishi Ci, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Lin Chong, Guan Sheng, Yue Fei and other generals were left.
Even Dian Wei and Xu Chu, who were the main bodyguards on the left and right, were not brought along. Xu Chu's injury was a bit serious, and Mulancha's move as a pressure player was not so easy to take. That move directly hit his meridians severely.
Dian Wei didn't have any injuries on his body. After beheading the turtle, he was just too exhausted. After a night's rest, there would be no problem.
However, this time, he did not bring any of his bodyguards, the Tiger Guards, so naturally he had to leave Dian Wei behind to watch over the Tiger Guards, and then follow the larger troops up again.
After this battle, many generals were injured.
Yike, Yao Xing, and Xu Chu are the most serious ones. Don't even think about moving away after a year or so.
Zhang Guifang, like Xiong Kuohai, may not be seriously injured, but it may be considered minor but not minor, but he won't be able to run away for two to three months.
Huang Feihu, Yang Jian, and Xing Tian were not seriously injured, but it was best to rest for more than a month.
There was only one Li Yuanba. Although everyone received the same beating, this boy's recovery speed was several times faster than theirs.
They knew that Zhu Quan's exercises were not as hard on the body as Li Cunxiao's, but on recovery.
Therefore, with similar injuries, Zhu Quan's recovery speed was much faster than theirs, which Zhu Quan and the others could accept. However, Li Yuanba's skills were not as good as Zhu Quan's, so his recovery speed was almost as fast as Zhu Quan's.
