Chapter 683: Finale

Previous Chapter

Han, the sixth year of Kaiyuan, spring.

Zhang Tianlang has been training troops in Lingzhou and Jiangzhou for three years, and now the treasury is full, the elite soldiers have not yet grown old, and the training of recruits is quite statute, the morale is high, and there will be a fighting spirit.

Liu De's edict was issued from the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and Zhang Tianlang swore an oath on the north bank of the river, with a total of 50,000 troops, divided into three routes.

All the way, Huang Gai was the main general, and a total of 10,000 horses crossed the river from the direction of Jiangzhou to attack Yingzhou.

All the way, Zu Ti was the main leader, and a total of 10,000 horses attacked the eastern part of Nanzhou from the direction of Yangzhou.

The last road was led by Zhang Tianlang himself, with Zhang He and Pei Yuanqing as the vanguard, and crossed the river from the direction of Lingzhou to attack the capital of Southern Chu, that is, Hongcheng in Nanzhou.

However, now the name has been changed to Hongdu by Mi Zhao.

In the three years of the Han Dynasty's cultivation and recuperation, Mi Zhao frequently issued edicts to let various places offer beautiful women, and even built a large palace, which made the domestic people excessively forced into labor, miserable, and mournful.

Within three years, there were two more epidemics and one flood.

As a result, there are countless people who crossed the river with their families or fled to Yangzhou (Han Dynasty) over the mountains and mountains.

On top of the court, a large number of wizards filled the court, they would not deal with government affairs, let alone take care of the people's livelihood, they would only flatter, take power and bribes, and loot on a large scale, making the entire Southern Chu court smoky, and making countless civil rebels and thieves in the forest.

The three-way army was opened, and it didn't even take the full strength of the Han army to attack the city, and there were countless people who surrendered in Kaicheng, and even at an important pass, the defenders of the city cut off the head of one of Mi Zhao's sons and surrendered to the Han army.

Of course, there was also unfortunate news during the period, Liu Zhi, the general of the right guard, was unfortunately killed in battle.

...

The three-way army was like a bamboo, but in just half a year, Zhang Tianlang broke through Hongdu and found Mi Zhao hiding in a dry well.

Subsequently, Zhang Tianlang ordered the soldiers to kill a large number of wizards in the name of the witch curse country, and basically cleaned up the wizard witches located in Hongdu.

After that, Zhang Tianlang personally sat in Hongdu for a year, cleaning up or recruiting bandits in Nanzhou and Yingzhou.

Originally, Liu De was ready to issue an edict ordering Zhang Tianlang to send troops to recover Yun and Kunzhou, but what Liu De didn't expect was that Donghu Gongli Khan gathered a total of 300,000 soldiers and horses from Donghu, Linhu, Beihu, Qiang, and Wuhu to suddenly Koubian.

At that time, the border invaded by Hulu was guarded by Yang Ye, the general of the Left Guard, and his seven sons, except for Yang Qilang, the remaining six sons each guarded a border city.

Dalang Yang Yanping, Erlang Yang Yanding, and Sanlang Yang Yanguang died in battle one after another, and Shilang Yang Yanhui disappeared.

On the one hand, Yang Ye sent a letter to Bai Qi to ask for military support, and on the other hand, he led the left general Zhou Daodao, the left general of the right guard, Meng Mingshi, the fifth lang, Yang Yande, the sixth lang, Yang Yanzhao, and the seventh lang, Yang Yansi, and other generals to send troops to resist the Hulu army.

After winning two games in a row, he was trapped in Jiuwei Mountain by the stock strategy, Yang Ye longed for reinforcements to arrive, and led the army to break through, and died of exhaustion under hunger and thirst.

Zuo Wuwei, Zuo General Zhou Daoguo, Qilang Yang Yansi died in battle one after another.

Meng Mingshi, Wulang Yang Yande, and Liulang Yang Yanzhao barely escaped for their lives, and led more than 100 remnants of the army to flee back to Xinxing City.

Later, the dividends besieged Xinxing City, although Yang Ye's wife She Saihua had the pain of losing her husband and child, but now it is a big enemy, She Saihua gathered all the soldiers in the name of Yang Ye's wife, and led Hua Jieyu, Zhou Yunjing, Geng Jinhua, Yang Qi, Yang Ying, Yang Paifeng and other Yang family female generals to guard Xinxing City.

The dividend rate army attacked for three days in a row, but it was unsuccessful.

At this time, Zhang Fang, the general of the reinforcement left and the right, arrived with the army and fought with the dividends, but was defeated and left.

Although the dividends were won, the follow-up armies of the Han army would inevitably come one after another, and Xinxing City would definitely not be able to capture it in a short time, and now the plundered wealth and women have been quite abundant, and the army was immediately withdrawn.

Five days after the dividend withdrawal, the news reached Chang'an, although Liu De had already learned the news of the death of a series of generals through the system, but now when he saw the battle report, he became more and more angry.

After Liu De first got the news of Yang Dalang's death, he began to integrate and mobilize the soldiers and horses of the Chinese military governor's mansion on the grounds of military training.

As soon as the war report arrived, Liu De ordered the whole country to fight with Hu Lu endlessly.

And drive the personal expedition to avenge this sea of blood.

During the march, Liu De used the grounds that it was unfavorable to defend the territory and caused Yang Ye and other generals to die in battle, and the Duke of Qin and the former military governor Bai Qi and the former military governor were reduced to the third rank, and Zhang Fang was responsible for the failure to reduce the knight and demote the third class.

Subsequently, with Wei Chigong as the acting governor, he led the former military capital governor's department, and sent troops from the northern governor Gecheng to attack Beihu.

He also ordered Huo Qubing and Xu Huang to send troops from Weizhou to attack the Qiang people.

With Wei Qing and Huo Jun as the main and deputy commanders, he went out of Dongyu City in Yanzhou to attack Linhu and Wuhu.

Han, the sixth year of Kaiyuan, autumn.

Dihu was basically exterminated, Liu De won six battles and more than 50 small victories, and Beihu was driven to Mobei.

Wei Qing killed Lin Hu Khan, and Lin Hu was no longer a threat for ten years.

Huo Qubing took 3,000 light horsemen as the vanguard, raided the Qiang tribes, and killed 14 Qiang leaders, and the Qiang people were terrified for a while.

In October, Liu De returned to the army.

In the seventh year of Kaiyuan, spring.

Liu De continued to personally conquer the desert, which lasted half a year, and finally captured the dividend khan in the Donghu royal court.

Liu Deban triumphantly, feasted the generals in Chang'an to celebrate his achievements, and invited the female generals of the Yang Sect, including She Taijun, to the main hall to invite them to enjoy the dancing of the dividend khan and his heirs on the brazier.

...

Han, the eighth year of Kaiyuan, autumn.

Zhang Tianlang will recover Yun and Kun Erzhou with Zu Ti as the main body, Yun and Kun Erzhou have no big forces in the first place, and they are too far away from the Central Plains, as long as the local heroes are not stupid, they know that they only need to be a little more docile, and these two states will still be their two states in the future.

Therefore, as soon as the Han army arrived, the surrender was quite fast, and there was basically no obstacle along the way, even if there was resistance, it was just an itch for the Han army.

Of course, Zu Ti also remembered Liu De's instructions, captured a city, inquired about the people's news, and directly sent troops to escort the largest local families to Chang'an to live.

This is also the quickest way to reduce the local power.

Taking advantage of the early establishment of the Han Dynasty, Liu De's prestige was strong, and the various forces were not deeply entangled, and they could be cleaned up.

To tell the truth, it is the norm to bully the people with such a strong and strong, and you still have to leak it if you cut off the heads of nine out of ten.

Now he just moved to Chang'an to live, which is already regarded as Liu De's benevolence.

However, this did make the Han army suffer more resistance, but the Han army didn't care.

But when it came to Yunzhou, Zu Ti encountered the strongest resistance since entering Yunyun and Kun, and even because of the successive battles, he was almost ambushed by the other party under the paralysis of carelessness.

This also made the somewhat proud and complacent Han Jun a little sober.

A three-month stalemate ensued, but because the Han army was well supplied with soldiers and food, the Han army finally entered the city.

captured the general defending the city, when Zu Ti learned the identity of the general defending the city, he was shocked, but because he didn't understand the situation at the time, Zu Ti didn't dare to make a decision lightly.

Instead, it was reported to Zhang Tianlang and asked Zhang Tianlang to decide.

When Zhang Tianlang got the news, he was also in a trance, it turned out that this person's name was: He Jun.

He Dongyan's son, He Jun.

He Dongyan was a veteran who followed Liu De's grandfather Liu Shang, but when Liu De succeeded him, He Dongyan was not convinced by Liu De, and repeatedly made disrespectful remarks, and died in battle soon after.

He Dongyan's death did make the generals of Dongyu City at that time have some doubts, and He Jun left Dongyu City at that time.

He Jun was just ten years old when he left, and now he is twenty-four years old.

Zhang Tianlang looked at He Jun, who had a resolute face in front of him, or a little unruly, and was speechless for a long time.

"It turned out to be Uncle Zhang, and Uncle Zhang is also old."

He Jun said.

Zhang Tianlang may have thought of his relationship with He Dongyan in the past, and looked at the faces that were somewhat similar to He Jun and He Dongyan, and he was a little choked up for a while.

"Jun'er, why is this so!"

He Jun suddenly smiled and said, "Uncle Zhang is now in a high position, why is his heart soft?" Liu De killed my father, but can't I resist? Now that he has been caught, he has nothing to say, please die quickly! ”

Zhang Tianlang sighed and said: "I also had doubts at the beginning, and I also spent time investigating, your father did die in an accident, after all, on the battlefield, how precious can a life be?" ”

He Jun was speechless, but the corners of his eyes twitched, and then he raised his head and said, "Please die quickly!" ”

Zhang Tianlang nodded, "Zu Ti is also a veteran general in the army, you can stop him for three months, but you are much stronger than us back then." ”

After that, he waved his hand and asked the guards on the side to take He Jun down.

After a while, the guards presented He Jun's head to Zhang Tianlang for a look.

Zhang Tianlang decided to be this villain himself, instead of leaving He Jun to Liu De.

After Liu De learned of this, he didn't say anything, but soon after, he was awarded the title of Shangzhu State, Prince and Master with Zhang Tianlang's meritorious service to the south.

His sons Zhang Weiguo and Zhang Anguo were all named Pavilion Marquis.
