Liu Guanghui's sudden resignation, although it caused a great sensation, only made everyone have more speculation, more topics after dinner, and one more thing that really shook the world.

The civil unrest in Henan and Huaibei is becoming more and more serious, although the local army has been wiped out, but the spring breeze blows and grows, and it has never been able to eradicate it, and by September, the riot force has grown to more than 20, of which Wang Kui and Su Chi are the two largest forces.

In the first year of Tianhe, in mid-August, the mob leaders Wang Kui and Su Chi, led 8,000 rebel people, and fought to the territory of Henan Province, and the local government sent troops to recruit and suppress several times, but they were all defeated, and on the sixth day of September, Wang Kui and Su Chi led the crowd to pretend to be defeated officers and soldiers, and raided Qiyang County, breaking in one fell swoop, and the news came, Zhao Xun was quite shocked.

Qiyang County may be just a small county town, nothing, but this city is less than 300 miles away from the eastern capital Luojing, the rebels took Qiyang City in one fell swoop, and it only took less than two days to reach the eastern capital Luojing.

The imperial court quickly made a decision, and the crown prince Zhao Xun immediately issued an urgent order, ordering Zhan Tai Jingming, the guard of Luojing Town, to lead the troops out of the city to exterminate the rebels, and never let the rebels approach the eastern capital, so as not to disturb the hearts of the people in the world.

Although Wang Kui and Su Chi took Qiyang City, the number was not large, and after several battles, it was less than 5,000, with poor equipment and chaotic combat power, but Zhan Tai Jingming had 15,000 elite soldiers in his hands, and it was not a problem to exterminate Wang Kui and Su Chi in Zhao Xun's opinion.

But how can the momentum of war be taken for granted?

What everyone never expected was that this peaceful chaos ended in a fiasco, so that the entire battle situation and the overall situation of Henan suddenly took a sharp turn.

On the tenth day of the ninth month, Zhan Tai Jingming was ordered to lead the army to quell the rebellion, Luojing had 15,000 defenders, he didn't take Wang Kui and Su Chi seriously at all, he was only going to take 5,000 troops out of the city, and was finally persuaded by his general Zhao Tianyuan, so he finally brought 10,000 people.

Wang Kui and Su Chi belonged to the 5,000 army, said to be the army, in fact, it is a group of people, the combat effectiveness can be imagined, Zhan Tai Jingming led the army, immediately attacked Qiyang City, less than half an hour, is to break through the city, Wang Kui and Su Chi led less than 3,000 remnants of the army, abandoned the city and fled in embarrassment.

Zhan Tai Jingming was greedy for military exploits, and naturally refused to let go of this group of rebel people, so he led the army to chase and kill, and chased for more than 100 miles without giving up, Zhao Tianyuan tried his best to dissuade him, saying that he was chasing the enemy excessively, and his own energy was not good, and if there was a change, he would be defeated.

Zhan Tai Jingming did not listen to the dissuasion and ordered the whole army to continue the pursuit.

Zhan Tai Jingming is too arrogant, and he looks down on others too much, Wang Kui is brave, Su Chi is strategic, they have already planned everything, as early as when they captured Qiyang City, Su Chi sent people to contact other rebel forces, among which several forces obeyed Su Chi's orders, secretly went north, entered Langhe Mountain and lurked, just waiting for Wang Kui and Su Chi to lead the enemy.

Zhan Tai Jingming led the army in a desperate pursuit, and finally the army poured into a small area, and at this time, nearly 20,000 chaotic people came from all directions.

Zhan Tai Jingming's army came from afar, exhausted its strength, and the 20,000 rebellious people who ambushed here, although poorly equipped and low in combat effectiveness, were waiting for work at ease, taking them by surprise, and attacking the exhausted division with all their might.

The two sides fought fiercely for two hours, the official army was finally defeated, Zhan Tai Jingming was besieged, and in despair he intentionally committed suicide, and was blocked by Zhao Tianyuan, the general of Zhonglang, and then, Zhao Tianyuan gathered five hundred soldiers, took the lead, killed a bloody road, and fled with Zhan Tai Jingming.

In this battle, more than half of the 10,000 elite soldiers were killed and thousands were captured.

Zhan Tai Jingming's defeat, immediately caused a chain reaction, first of all, the mob rebels, a big battle, suddenly morale boosted, Wang Kui and Su Chi immediately became famous all over the world, they took advantage of the opportunity of the big victory, reoccupied Qiyang City, and used this as a stronghold, successively broke through the surrounding six counties and eight cities, obtained a large amount of food and equipment, Wang Kui and Su Chi took this as the confidence, recruited troops on a large scale, and called on the rebel forces from all over the country to come to converge and plan together.

On September 14, the news of Zhan Tai Jingming's defeat came back to Fengjing, the Manchu Dynasty was shocked, Zhao Xun was a little panicked, and hurriedly went to Zhao Zhi to ask for countermeasures, what the father and son said, outsiders do not know, but soon, Zhao Xun held a court meeting on the grounds that he had received Zhao Zhi's full support, and discussed countermeasures with hundreds of officials.

Just when Zhao Xun held a court meeting and discussed some eyebrows with the hundred officials, the next day, there was news in Henan Province again, dozens of chaotic forces in Huaibei and Huainan regions actively responded to Wang Kui and Su Chi, and a large number of rebels went north to Henan Province, and by September 15, Wang Kui and Su Chi, who were based in Qiyang City, had gathered more than 80,000 soldiers and horses in their hands.

After holding a grand army assembly ceremony, Wang Kui left 20,000 troops to guard the rear, and personally led more than 60,000 troops, and the troops went out of Qiyang and began to march towards the second political and economic center of the Jin Dynasty, the eastern capital Luojing.

Zhao Xun was frightened, and finally listened to the military advice of Li Zhong, the left minister, and the political advice of Yang Daolin, the right minister, and began to take a two-pronged approach, actively mobilizing the forces of the world, and preparing to calm the chaos in Henan as quickly as possible.

First of all, Zhao Xun obtained all the authorization of Zhao Zhi, and ordered Zhao by the Son of Heaven to order Chuzhou Jiedu to make Wang Huailie send troops to Huaibei, enter Huzhou, a border city in Henan Province, to cut off the retreat of the rebels, and ordered to garrison Hedong, Yunzhou Jiedu made Huang Xu, led the army of 15,000, and immediately rushed to the aid of Luojing.

Finally, Yun Ji, the envoy of Puzhou Jiedu in Henan Province, was appointed as the general of counterinsurgency, and all the local armies in the state capitals in Henan Province were under his control.

Wang Kui, the leader of the rebels, led the army to attack Luojing for three days, but did not fall, at this time, the 20,000 troops of Wang Huailie had been stationed in Huzhou, and the army of the imperial court was already close to Luojing.

Yunzhou Jiedu made Huang Ji lead 15,000 troops from the north of Luojing to kill first, fought Wang Kui's rebels at night, defeated the rebels in a battle, and killed more than 10,000 enemies, and Puzhou Jiedu made Yun Ji also led nearly 20,000 troops at this time, coming from the south of Luojing, less than 100 miles away from the battlefield.

At this time, the rebel army still had nearly 50,000 soldiers to fight, although the number was more than that of the official army, but the combat effectiveness was far inferior, and there was a danger of being surrounded at this time, so the army was scattered, so it could only retreat immediately, otherwise it would definitely die.

But retreat, you can't retreat together, that can only be the end of the army's spirit immediately breaking down and the army scattering in a hurry.

Therefore, Wang Kui let his own son lead the 8,000 army to break off, and moved everyone with righteousness, and the army's spirit recovered slightly, and then Wang Kui led the army to retreat towards Qiyang.
