When Hong Chengchou received the news that Qin Yu had run away, Xiong Wencan also received the rebellion of the Eight Great Kings, who not only killed the order of Gucheng County, but also besieged Baokang with Cao Cao.

Suddenly, it was like falling into an ice cellar, and I almost fainted.

Because of the official document to appease the eight kings, it was just sent to Jingshi last month, and it was obviously too late to chase it at this time.

It is conceivable that while His Majesty stamped the big seal on the edict of appeasement, the eight kings of the people killed officials and rebelled, pulled the flag again, and proclaimed himself the chief leader of the righteous army, what kind of irony would it be?

Even if he wanted to hide it, the civil officials and King Xiang of Xiangyang would not hide it for him, and it was unfavorable to suppress the bandits for a while, so he seemed to have seen his end.

raiding homes and going to prison, even harming the three clans.

But as long as the decree of sin does not come one day, he still has a chance.

Therefore, he urgently ordered Zuo Guangxian, the general soldier who had just been transferred to Xiangyang, to immediately lead a large army to recover Gucheng and exterminate the Eight Kings and Cao Cao and Chuang Tian.

However, Zuo Guangxian's men and horses were Hong Chengchou's descendants, and Hong Chengchou's order to him was to stand still, and he was not too lazy to be the governor of the five provinces.

In desperation, although Xiong Wencan was half angry, he had to send a fast horse north to Yunyang overnight, so that Chen Hongfan quickly led his troops south to recover Gucheng and destroy the Eight Kings and Cao Cao.

Chen Hongfan was dismissed from office when he escaped from Phi Island, but after being introduced and put into Xiong Wencan's command, he was reused, and Hong Chengchou did not have a good face for him in the past.

After receiving Xiong Wencan's order, he also stopped bird Hong Chengchou, and immediately led the army stationed in Yunyang and Junzhou to advance by land and water.

At this time, Hong Chengchou and Xiong Wencan, one was the governor of the three sides and the other was the governor of the five provinces, both of whom were responsible for suppressing thieves.

It's just that Hong Chengchou is in charge of the northwest region, and Xiong Wencan is in charge of Huguang, Henan, and Sichuan.

But Yunyang is located at the junction of several provinces, and anti-thieves like to run around.

Hong Chengchou saw that Xiong Wencan frequently ate turtles, and he didn't want to go to Liaodong, so he took advantage of the name of searching for King Chuang and led his troops into Huguang to grab merit.

In the original history, after Hong Chengchou cleaned up the king, Xiong Wencan had also appeased the eight kings and Luo Rucai, and all the old thieves.

No matter how unhappy Hong Chengchou is, no matter how much he scolds Xiong Wencan for being mediocre and misleading the country, he has no excuse to go south to clean up the Eight Kings and Cao Cao.

And with the rise of Qin Yu, Xiong Wencan frequently suffered defeats, which just gave Hong Chengchou the opportunity to snatch the credit and annihilate all the thieves in one fell swoop.

Xiong Wencan, who was originally beaten by Qin Yu, saw Hong Chengchou cross the line, although he was a little unhappy, he didn't plan to fight with him and compete for command, after all, he lacked confidence.

But now, the eight kings have rebelled, and the consequences are not just as simple as dismissal and dismissal, he, the governor of the five provinces, is likely to be imprisoned and beheaded, or even exterminated by his family.

Therefore, he can't care about anything else at all, and he just wants to quickly kill the Eight Great Kings, or capture them alive and send them to Jingshi, so that he may be able to dissipate His Majesty's thunderous anger.

……

The county seat of Zhuxi.

Staff member Qian Gao hurriedly broke into the study.

"My lord, it's not good, then Chen Hongfan actually led his troops to kill Bengu City early yesterday morning."

"What?"

"How can this be reasonable, he dares to disobey the military orders of this governor, send troops without authorization, and do a bad thing to me, he really deserves to be killed and died."

Hong Chengchou was so shocked and angry that the brush slipped and fell on the paper, and a good landscape painting was ruined.

"My lord, it must be the order that Xiong Wencan gave him, otherwise he would never dare to act without authorization, this is the news I just received, the eight kings have rebelled, not only reoccupied Gucheng, but also attacked Baokang with that Cao Cao."

"This governor had already predicted, how could the eight kings really submit to the imperial court? Rebellion is a matter of time, and having Zuo Liangyu stationed is enough to ensure that Baokang is not lost.

Originally, it was nothing for him to lead his troops south at this time, and he could find out the situation when he came back, and the governor judged that the little Hua Wang did not retreat to Fang County, but went into the mountains.

If he wants to go south to Sichuan, it's fine, but if he goes north, he's going to be a big deal, hateful, then Xiong Wencan really misled the country..."

For a while, Hong Chengchou was anxious, and he no longer had the steadiness and calmness of the past.

He just sent his staff to Yunyang to urge Chen Hongfan to strengthen his vigilance and strictly guard against death, who would have thought that Xiong Wencan would not add chaos sooner or later, but at a critical time to dismantle his platform, at this time he was so angry that he wanted to eat Xiong Wencan alive.

"My lord, the mountains north of Zhushan are Junzhou! That Xiaohua King will definitely not go to Shennongjia, he is definitely going north, hurry up and send troops back to Junzhou, Yunxian to block it, otherwise once the Xiaohua King escapes out of the mountains and goes to Henan, he will really fish into the sea. ”

Qian Gao didn't expect that in the past few days since he left, that Xiaohua Wang would have such a big change, he was shocked, and his face suddenly changed greatly.

At this time, all parts of Henan can be said to be full of gunsmoke, and there are countless displaced people.

Although there were no major riots, the rioters stormed Dahuzhuang Fort and even the county town from time to time.

"That Xiaohua Wang disappeared five days ago, I'm afraid it's too late!"

Hong Chengchou shook his head helplessly.

The more than 10,000 troops of Zhuxi happened to arrive in Zhushan at this moment, and the other 10,000 troops were transferred to Xiangyang.

Now send someone to inform Zhushan's army to retreat to Yunyang and reinforce Junzhou, and it will take at least five days.

And Xiangyang's army has been going north for even longer, and it will take three days for Guang to convey the order to Zuo Guangxian.

Originally, there were 10,000 troops of Chen Hongfan, plus the guards from Yunyang and Junzhou, even if the thief army crossed the mountains and crossed the mountains, and there was a natural danger of the Han River, it could still drive the thief army to Gucheng.

At that time, the soldiers and horses of Zhushan, recovering Fang County, went down the river, approached Gucheng, Chen Hongfan led the army down the Han River, and Zuo Guangxian divided the troops into two roads, from Xiangyang along the banks of the Han River upstream.

Whether it is the Eight Kings or Na Cao Cao, or the King of Xiaohua, there is only one way to cross the river and flee north.

At that time, Cao Bianjiao's 3,000 elite cavalry suddenly killed, and the thieves from all walks of life will definitely stain both sides of the Han River with blood, and none of them will want to leave.

But now Chen Hongfan led his troops south in advance, and that Xiaohua Wang chose the path he didn't think he would take, which really ruined Hong Chengchou's plan.

"Then how many soldiers and horses did Chen Hongfan bring south?"

"All of them were taken away, and none of them were left."

"Bastard, the old man will definitely skin him and cramp."

Hong Chengchou stumbled angrily, and then gritted his teeth and roared, his past demeanor was gone.

"My lord, what should I do now?"

Qian Gao is also the first time to see the governor such a gaffe, and his forehead is also sweating urgently, it is really not as good as the sky, no wonder Kong Ming wanted to look up to the sky and sigh, it is up to people to make things happen, and things are done in the sky.

"Hey! can only hope that after the little Hua King crossed the mountains, his strength was greatly damaged, and he was unable to attack Junzhou. ”

Hong Chengchou sighed heavily, and then did not dare to delay any longer, and immediately sent fast horses to inform the army of Zhushan, which was divided into two, with 5,000 men and horses staying in Zhushan, and the other 5,000 returning to Junzhou as soon as possible.

Obviously, Hong Chengchou did not dare to let the officers and soldiers follow him over the mountains and mountains to chase him, and he didn't even dare to transfer all the soldiers and horses away to prevent the other party from hiding in the mountains and going back again.

As soon as the herald left, Hong Chengchou also rushed to Yunyang with 2,000 soldiers and horses from his own superintendent left battalion.

At the same time, he sent new orders to Zuo Guangxian and Cao Bianjiao.
