"Central Plains and Beijing, what are the new developments?" After chatting for a while, Liu Chengyou came back to his senses and asked.

"According to the latest news, Your Majesty has sent troops from Luoyang to the east, Tokyo is at your fingertips, and the generals and officials of various feudal towns in Henan are vying to join them, and when the emperor enters Tokyo, the Central Plains is determined." Wei Renpu reported.

Liu Chengyou was not the slightest surprise at Liu Zhiyuan's progress in the south, if in such a situation, Liu Zhiyuan was still so gentle and calm as before, and the spotlight would really be all focused on Liu Chengyou. This is not a good thing.

Liu Chengyou was interested, but it was Xiao Han, his fingers rubbing the edge of his chin: "That Xiao Han, where is it!" ”

Wei Renpu replied very competently: "That Khitan uncle Xiao Han led the Hu soldiers of the Central Plains to retreat north, calculated the time, estimated his footsteps, and crossed the river north. Your Highness, during this period of time, most of the Hu people in Hebei prefectures have been evacuated, and Xiao Han's people should be the largest of the remaining Hu people in China! ”

"Then, you can't let them withdraw easily, how can they all be Khitan uncles, you have to give them a ride!" Liu Chengyou said indifferently.

Since the news of Yeludguang's violent death and the first battle of Luancheng spread, even though there were still many Hu people in various places, their already shaky rule over Hebei quickly collapsed.

The generals of various states successively attacked and killed the Khitan generals to return to the city, and Liu Chengyou's case received a lot of submissions, and Liu Chengyou had already erected the banner of "Hebei System Envoy". With the prestige of the Battle of Luancheng, it is enough to deter everything, at least for a short time, no one dares to beat its edge.

As for those Hu people, they will either die or flee. Liu Chengyou had the intention to leave them all, but he was entangled in everything, and he had to take care of Yeluruan in the north and Xuanfu in the domestic states, so he had more than enough heart but not enough strength. And the Jin generals in various states, drove the Hu people, and defended the infant city, and there were only a few who really fought to the death with the Hu people. After killing all the soldiers in his hand, what did he use to get an official position from the new dynasty and seek glory and wealth.

"Your Highness, Xue Huairang, the assassin of Zhaozhou, sent troops to the north, captured Xingzhou, issued a report, drove the Hu people, please take credit!" A scribe entered and bowed to Liu Chengyou.

Liu Chengyou was stunned for a moment, took the official document he received, and quickly browsed it, although his mood became gloomy, there was no obvious fluctuation on his face, and he handed the official document to Wei Renpu: "This Xue envoy is worthy of being a hero of the anti-Liao resistance, this * took the initiative to go north and help the military and people of Xingzhou!" ”

Xue Huairang was originally a training envoy of the Zhaozhou regiment, but Yelude destroyed the Jin Dynasty and surrendered after the Battle of the Hutuo River. After Liu Zhiyuan called the emperor to raise troops, he called on the ministers of the world to resist Liao, and did not move. Until Yelu Deguang died, the Liao army was defeated, and the news of Liu Zhiyuan's troops entering Heluo came one after another, he couldn't bear it, and decisively raised troops in Zhaozhou, killed the Khitan generals, and sent people to Liu Chengyou.

And Xue Huairang this person, through the descriptions of Feng Dao and Wei Renpu, the two "Bai Xiaosheng", Liu Chengyou has some understanding of this person. The impression is not good, it is a complete martial artist, or a martial artist who likes to expropriate and extort violently, and fish the common people.

However, even if he didn't like it in his heart, Liu Chengyou was still happy to accept it at that time, and sent an envoy to appoint him as the commander of the Assassin History and the Infantry Army of Zhaozhou.

Xingzhou is very close to Zhaozhou, and was originally a Yan general Liu Duo, who led a small number of soldiers and horses to garrison, and was originally responsible for supervising the transportation of grain for the Liao army. The Khitan in China had already surrendered to Liu Chengyou, however, Xue Huairang suddenly sent troops, occupied the city, and killed people.

Noticing the faint anger in Liu Chengyou's tone, Wei Renpu was not unusual, he had seen a lot of such things. Gently put down the official document and said calmly: "Your Highness, since Xingzhou has been in his hands, you can push the boat down the river for the time being." Right now, stability is the most important thing. ”

Stability overrides everything, this truth, Liu Chengyou is naturally clear. It's just that I feel a little unhappy in my heart.

However, he quickly corrected his mentality, this is just a small warlord, not even a separatist force, and it is not worth fighting.

"Then, let's take it as an observer for Xing and Huan!" Liu Chengyou said, very blandly, and added: "Lonely, remember this person." ”

"What's going on in Yedu?" Skipping the matter of Xing and Huan, Liu Chengyou looked solemn and asked.

Although Hebei is large, the territory is vast, and there are many states and counties, but there are only three important towns. Youzhou Lulong also fell into the hands of the Khitans, and Chengde Town was successively attached after Liu Chengyou settled in Zhending, and the only thing left was Wei Bo. What is certain is that as long as Weibo surrenders, then Hebei will be decided.

Previously, the Central Plains rebel army swarmed up and attacked the Khitan army, and the four borders were unstable. The original surrender duo of Du Chongwei and Li Shouzhen were respectively the envoy of the Tianxiong Army and the envoy of the Tianping Army.

Returning to the capital of Ye, Du Chongwei had more than 20,000 troops, and cooperated with Yelu Parid to guard the place, and quickly quelled the riot that was not big at that time. When the Khitans retreated north, they were completely controlled by them, with nearly 30,000 troops, and more than 2,000 Yan troops, led by the Yan general Zhang Lian, and settled in Yedu.

Yan Bing was really used as a tool by the Liao Lord, and he was everywhere.

Nowadays, in addition to the scattered Hu people, only Du Chongwei's force, which is the most powerful and worthy of attention, is an obstacle to the Hebei strategy of the new dynasty. When the states submitted one after another, only Yedu remained silent. And Liu Chengyou is also paying attention at the same time.

Without thinking, Wei Renpu replied: "It is reported that Du Chongwei has gathered troops in Yedu, gathered grain and grass, and recruited the people to repair the city. All this, I am afraid that there will be abnormal movements! ”

"Du Chongwei still has the heart of the Jin army?" Liu Chengyou expressed doubts and was a little disdainful.

Wei Renpu said: "A soldier may be despised, but he has food in his hands, and he has accumulated power for many years, and there is no external force to oppress him, and he can still support it!" ”

"Looking at his movements, it is again gathering troops and horses, and it is also the city pool, Du Chongwei wants to go against the sky?" Liu Chengyou said.

"Not really." Wei Renpu shook his head slightly: "There may be stubbornness, but more, it may be a move of self-preservation." ”

"Weibo Town, separating the north and south, is too close to Tokyo, and must be in control! The Son of Heaven will never allow Ye to fall into the hands of Du Chongwei for a long time! Liu Chengyou said solemnly, his tone firm.

Wei Renpu also nodded in agreement.

"Mr. Wei has a strategy, can he decide Weibo?"

"It is best to be able to persuade the surrender, the soldiers are not bloody, and then find an opportunity to set up and entrust the generals with their hearts." After thinking about it, Wei Renpu replied.

"Can Du Chongwei fall?" Liu Chengyou had some questions.

After a little consideration, Wei Renpu said: "He led the people to surrender to the Khitan, and he was defeated by the country, and he was afraid of suspicion and jealousy, so he could not surrender easily. ”

"It seems that we still have to fight!"

"Hebei has not yet been pacified, and with the strength in His Highness's hands now, I am afraid it will be difficult to make the trip. Besides, it is not suitable to set off an attack at this time, and the Khitans in the north still have to be defended! Wei Renpu still replied calmly.

Liu Chengyou thought about it, and he was really unable to move easily. Again, stability is paramount.

Left and right, the general trend of the Liu family is already irreversible, and when the Central Plains is calmed down, it is slowly concocted.
