Zhao Guangyi sat on the royal chariot and watched helplessly as Yang Hao led the army to the west. Like a goldfish, it shook its head and tail and detached itself. Each of his soldiers had a full quiver, and there were still full quivers behind them.
The carriage carrying grain felt really depressed.
But he had no choice. He had just received news that the rebellion in Shu was intensifying and the team was getting stronger. It seemed that someone in Jiangnan was plotting something evil and was about to start. A rebellion had just broken out in Fujian. There were legends everywhere in Bianliang City.
Li Yu was not dead. It was said that Li Yu had not only successfully escaped from Bianliang, but had also quietly sneaked back to the south of the Yangtze River and was gathering his old troops to make a comeback, which caused panic among people.
His country cannot be in chaos. If rebellions occur one after another in Shu, Fujian, and Jiangnan, this kind of internal turmoil will be far more harmful than the northwest vassals that have a strong tail and are defiant. Although the imperial army has many soldiers and horses, they must guard the border, suppress the local area, and defend the country.
There are not many mobile troops in the capital that can be used. At this time, he can never take the risk of dispatching a large army to Yinzhou.
However, although the northwest cannot be conquered in one fell swoop, it is foreseeable that the outcome of the war between the northwest vassals will be defeat for all, and the imperial court can still form a more powerful control over the northwest after the war. This unlucky Yang
Hao, is there any harm in allowing him to show off for a little longer? No matter how cunning he is, I will definitely defeat him!
Thinking of this, Zhao Guangyi sighed reluctantly and ordered: "Send the order: Let Pan Mei be the vanguard and rush back to Bianjing. Tian Chongjin will stay behind to take care of the funeral, and the rest of the battalions will follow me back to the capital!"
It is not difficult for Yang Hao to create a turbulent situation in Bianjing. In the south of the Yangtze River, he has already begun to make arrangements; the rebels in Shu can also be used; as for Fujian, let Jisitang use his hands and feet
, it is not difficult to create a small-scale rebellion.
This news passed through the Qianjin Yixiao Tower where the emperor's relatives and civil and military ministers often visited, through the Bianhe Gang, and through the eyes and ears still installed there in the Jisi Hall, which was enough to exaggerate and spread these actual facts. When they
When the news reached Zhao Guangyi's ears, the wind had turned into rain, and he was not afraid that he would not immediately rush back to Bianliang to take charge of the overall situation.
San Francisco rushed to the northwest at night and under the stars. The total force they brought was 60,000 people. After half a month of siege battle, they lost at least 5,000 people, and there were 6,7,000 wounded soldiers and disabled soldiers, which just made these
The wounded soldiers who were unable to move slowly accompanied them as they escorted them to transport grain and grass. Yang Jiye's family and the next few hundred wounded soldiers on Shaxiong Ridge were also mixed in with this grain transport team, recovering from their injuries while marching.
Li Guangrui owns the land of five states. Since the nomadic lands in the northwest are no more guarded than the cities in the Central Plains, even though the northwest is vast and sparsely populated, if Li Guangrui does whatever it takes, the number of troops he can mobilize is at least 200,000. However,
After Yinzhou fell into the hands of Yang Hao, Li Guangrui strengthened the defense of the other states, and Xiazhou would definitely have an elite guard left. In this case, his so-called full force deployment this time would probably only have a total force of 100,000 people at most.
But even if there were only these 100,000 people, the three vassals would not have any advantage at all with their military strength, because it was impossible for Zheyang and Yang vassals to take the extraordinary risk like him to build an empty city at their base and then pull all the troops.
He came out to fight Li Guangrui.
Therefore, Yang Hao really has high hopes for Xiazhou. As long as Xiazhou can succeed, once the news reaches the army, the morale of Li Guangrui's troops will be greatly reduced. At that time, it was widely said that Li Guangrui only had an advantage of twice the number of troops. Even if he had millions
The army is here
He has no intention of fighting anymore. Therefore, what Yang Hao needs to do now is to rush back quickly, contain Li Guangrui's troops, protect Yinzhou, and wait for news from Xiazhou. When the news of Xiazhou's victory comes, he will blow the whistle
Charge's time.
But to achieve this goal, there are two prerequisites. One is that Xiazhou can be successfully obtained, and the other is that Yinzhou is ensured. However, how can things in the world go as planned? Can he occupy Xiazhou without losing Yinzhou?
"What's going on in Yinzhou now? Can Dong'er and Ke Zhene defend Yinzhou? Can Mu En, Mu Cen, and Ai Yihai successfully cross the swamp, trek through the desert, and reach the gate of Xiazhou City? Can Tuoba Haofeng
Successfully complete the task of integrating inside and outside?"
This series of thoughts kept lingering in his mind, almost torturing Yang Hao crazy. The only thing he could do was to rush, at full speed, wishing he could spread his wings and fly back to Yinzhou City within a day...
In Yinzhou, in the back hall of Qiyun Temple, a woman in green clothes wields a long whip, her body is as graceful as a dance. The long whip is like a swimming dragon, sometimes "white snake spits out messages", sometimes "sounds in the east and strikes in the west", sometimes "jade belt"
"waist"
..., the shadow of the whip whizzed about, curling and dancing like a spiritual snake. Suddenly, the woman in green clothes shook her wrist, rolled the long whip horizontally, and exploded with a "pop" sound, blowing a small arm-thick
The tree broke at the waist.
"Well, your understanding is beyond my expectation."
Taoist Master Jingyin walked out of the hall with a sweet smile. Xiao Zhouhou raised her wrist and retracted her long whip, causing ripples in the air. The whip became smaller and smaller until it was completely in her hand. Then she took a step forward,
He saluted respectfully and said: "Master."
"Hmm." Taoist Master Shizune took the whip from her hand and said with a smile: "You are really poor at swordsmanship. I didn't expect you could get this whip so quickly. This whip is called 'Fox Tail'.
The weapon that I carried with me when I was young, from now on... I will give it to you."
"Thank you, mentor."
Taoist Master Jingyin nodded and said: "The spear is afraid of roundness, and the whip is afraid of straightness. The spear is a hard weapon. If it can make the circle turn freely, it will be the superior state of marksmanship and it will be extremely difficult to deal with; while the whip is a soft weapon, if
Can make it as straight as an arrow,
With both spear and spear skills, the whip skill has reached a superior level and is more difficult to deal with than a spear. You only have three points of strength, but you can also use it to exert a lot of force. Moreover, the whip can be soft or hard.
It’s so unpredictable and difficult to deal with.”
At this point, she suddenly flicked her wrist, and the black whip tip in her hand jumped straight out like a snake spitting a message. Taoist Master Shizhen flicked his wrist again, and the whip made a shrill whistle, like a
It suddenly slashed down from the air like a long stick. Taoist Master Shizune just moved his wrist, which seemed to be an understatement and without exerting any force, but when the whip came down, it was like a sword slashing down from the air.
There was a big tree as thick as a thigh in front of it. Its green branches had just sprouted. It was chopped down by this whip and exploded in half with a "boom", splitting straight from the top to the bottom. The sound was really terrifying.
The tree can be split like this. If this whip hits a person, you can imagine the consequences.
Taoist Master Jingyin said: "Although you can use a whip to make up for your lack of strength, you still need four ounces of strength to transfer a thousand gold coins. To pass on your Qiandao Ding-casting Technique to my master, you must practice it diligently morning and night, and your internal strength Once you have the foundation, you will be as light as a swallow and your strength will gradually increase. If you want to achieve a small success in Kun Dao Ding Ding, it will take a hundred days, but you can't wait that long to become a teacher. Since your understanding is so good, Today, I will teach you the phantom sword technique as my master."
