After Pucha Sujia withdrew his troops, he was gathering troops again.

He gathered all the people who could be mobilized in Cangzhou City, gathered enough 8,000 people, and then came to Gonggao City.

Hearing the news, Zhang Zhikui decisively decided to retreat, and Gonggaocheng could not hold it.

Due to the speed of the march and the haste of the retreat, many of the seriously wounded could not withstand this turbulence and died on the road.

They withdrew to Anling, rested for the night, and prepared to retreat to Jiangling, but at this time they heard that Pucha Sujia had retreated.

This time, Pucha Sujia retreated beyond imagination, and even gave up the entire Cangzhou and returned to the capital of Nanjia.

"Hahaha! And this good thing? Tang Hu was overjoyed.

"Deputy Marshal Zhang said, from now on, Cangzhou, eight cities and three counties, everyone will rob it, whoever grabs it will be counted. And the resources there belong to you. Tang Yuan smiled and said: "Now, the four divisions have gone crazy, fighting for territory everywhere, Tang Qi asked us to run to the south, let's not go to rob Hu Su, go directly to rob Leling and Wudi, as long as we grab the two cities, it will be a lot of credit." ”

These two cities were almost empty cities, and when Tang Yuan's troops arrived, the soldiers at the head of the city had already surrendered.

Only a few male soldiers escaped, and the rest were Han Chinese.

After entering the city, he first disposed of some guys who had worked for the male Jia people, and then set up a county office, arranged a militia group, and sent a list to appease the people, and then continued to run towards Wudi City without stopping.

Now the leader of the militia group turned out to be the son of the centurion Li who died when crossing the river, which was deliberately arranged by Tang Yuan. After arranging these, they hurriedly marched to Wudi, it was already night, and some militia groups at the head of Wudi City who did not know the depth planned to resist.

Tang Yuan took the lead in archery, and after a few rounds of arrows, the enemy army hoisted the white flag and surrendered.

A man named Lu Sheng cut off the head of a male leader before opening the city gate.

Tang Yuan appointed him as the leader of the new militia group, and when he entered the city to surrender and set up the county government, he found that the original county prince was the former county lord of Daliang.

Tang Yuan said: "I can understand the choice you made for the life of your family, but as the imperial court official of the Great Liang, you are swaying left and right like grass on the wall, which is really despicable, and all the sage books you have read have been read into the dog's belly?" ”

Tang Yuan ordered the county order to be arrested, put him in prison, and confiscated all the men of the county order's family.

After a night of introduction, review, and selection, a young scholar was finally selected to be the temporary county master, Tang Yuan said: "I don't expect you to love the people like a son, I just ask you not to bully the people, and be worthy of your current official position." Although my appointment is not final, you can rest assured that even if the imperial court sends a new county order in the future, you will be the county governor of your own county. Never forget your credit. ”

The young man knelt down and kowtowed to Tang Yuan.

He took two cities in a row and looted them everywhere, but in fact, the two cities were already close to exhaustion.

There aren't a lot of things that can be scavenged.

All they found was iron, wood, cloth, and a small amount of food.

"There wasn't even a tael of silver in the storehouse. The county magistrate's family doesn't have much food left. Tang Hu said sullenly.

Tang Yuan said: "The war is so cruel, only by completely driving out the male Jia people can the land of Hebei be restored." Let's hope the war doesn't happen in this place again. ”

After recovering Cangzhou, Zhang Zhikui actually pulled up a force by himself, this force has no number, but belongs to his escort group, which is close to 5,000 people.

And Tang Qi also asked the brigades and the second regiment directly under him to recruit troops as soon as possible, Tang Yuan frantically recruited troops in Leling and Wudi, and also asked people to go to Dizhou to recruit troops.

In less than half a month, Tang Yuan gathered more than 4,000 people and headed towards Cangzhou.

Why rush to Cangzhou?

for he had no food.

"My God, Tang Yuan, where did you get so many people?"

It took a lot of effort to get 2,000 people.

At present, he has a brigade, and there are not as many people as Tang Yuan's regiment.

Tang Yuan smiled and said, "How about it, it's not bad." Hey. Do you want people. ”

"Yes."

"Okay, I'll give you a thousand."

"Oh? Is that interesting? ”

"But you'll have to exchange food for me."

"Oh, I don't think you kid will be so kind, okay, I'll give you half a month."

Reaching a deal, Tang Yuan went to see Tang Qi.

Tang Qi had heard that he had brought in many people, and when he was fine, he privately calculated that now the fourth division has been overnumbered.

At this time, Zhang Zhikui received an order from the commander, asking the Northern Expedition Provisional Second Army to march into Yingzhou and Shenzhou, and demanded that within ten days, it must be taken, protect Xiao Han's right road, and prepare for a decisive battle with the enemy general Yan Zhan Shiya.

Zhang Zhikui personally led the team, together with Xiao Fei, to attack Yingzhou, and asked Tang Qi, Ju Fan, and Han Dang to attack Shenzhou.

Now that these two states are almost everywhere with empty cities, the Fourth Division of Shence and the Fourth Division of Huben are marching towards the Deep State like crazy, almost to see who can run faster.

"Hey, Han Dang, that kid is running briskly." Tang Hu said indignantly: "No, we can't let him be faster than us." ”

"What are you going to do?"

Seeing Tang Hu open his teeth and claws, Tang Yuan had an ominous premonition.

"I'm going to fire a cannon to scare them into thinking that there is an enemy here, and they won't run so fast!"

"Be honest with me!" Tang Yuan said, "Don't look for trouble!" ”

Tang Hu rolled his eyes and stopped talking.

Tang Yuan said solemnly: "Between friendly forces, how can you use such despicable means? In case someone is hurt, how to keep up with the peak explanation? Wouldn't it be okay for me to say that we should cross the bridge first and then tear it down for him? ”

"Oh, I'll go, Xiaofeng, I found that you are worse than me."

"It's not bad, it's ...... It's called smart. ”

"You can pull it down."

The two recruit divisions seized the city separately, Dianhan grabbed Raoyang, Ju Fan grabbed Anping, Tang Yuan and Han Dang continued south, competing for the other two cities, one was Lu Zecheng and the other was Lucheng.

Lu Ze City is actually also called Shenzhou City, the city is relatively large, and there are more materials, so at this time, Tang Yuan and Han Dang's primary goal is only one, which is to snatch Lu Ze.

In order to grab good resources, they tried every means to delay each other, and if it weren't for the military rules and regulations, the two sides would be eager to fight.

Day and night, non-stop.

"If it weren't for the fear of exhausting the horse to death, the two sides would have to go this way. I estimate that in the last thirty miles, they will definitely exert their strength. Tang Yuan looked back, and the two teams were almost connected.

Although it is said that it is a friendly army, fighting the enemy together, and attacking the city together, everyone knows in their hearts, whoever goes in first and inserts it at the head of the city, then the city is who's.

"Tear down the bridge!".

"Isn't it, tearing it down in front of people?"

"Whatever, just demolish it in front of him, in fact, he didn't suffer much loss, and Lucheng is not small."
