Zhao Run, the king of Liang, can be called pouring out of the nest this time, 50,000 people led by Fu Wei to guard Yinping Pass, leaving 20,000 to guard Liangzhou, and the remaining more than 80,000 soldiers and horses are all pulled to the border, waiting for siege equipment.

80,000 people were stationed in Yanjin, and the only way to enter Bingzhou was to cross the Wangjiang River, and Song Huan's strategy was to let the cavalry cross the mountain range, and the foot soldiers would cross the Wangjiang River in a big boat, because the big boat Liangzhou was built very little.

It takes too long to transport it back and forth, and King Liang can't wait that long.

"Zhao Ji, don't let me down!" King Liang muttered, not noticing that Song Huan had already walked to his side at this time.

"If we fight this state, we may lose a lot, and the state is not like Qingzhou, which only knows how to drink and have fun all day long, and it is a group of ruthless characters who hang their heads on their belts." Song Huan opened his mouth and said.

"Qingzhou is occupied by Meng Liu?" Zhao Run turned his head and asked.

Song Huan nodded and said: "Today's Malay report, Meng Liu has occupied the three counties of Donglai and Qi County in Beihai, and the name of the Taiping Sect is already well known, I think it will become bigger in the near future, and it is only a matter of time before I take the entire Qingzhou." ”

"I knew that when they were there Jing Yatou, they should have been killed before they were fledgling!"

"Now that the dragon has entered the sea, we can't control it, at least not at the moment, and the state is a difficult bone to gnaw."

"Actually, I'm more worried about the north, the Northern Barbarians have already stationed millions of troops at the four passes, if any of them are cut open, they will definitely swallow the south." Zhao Run was worried.

"The recruits can be formed within half a year, there is only so much we can do, no matter how hard the Zhao State fights, we have to defend the border, and we must not let the barbarians go south." Song Huan knew better than anyone what the barbarians would bring to the people when they went south.

"In a while, we will be able to enter the state, the first county is Xicheng County, the county guard Pei Cai, this person is known as having the courage of ten thousand people." Song Huan told Zhao Run about the first battle this time.

Zhao Run smiled when he heard this, touched the red tassel gun in his hand and said, "My gun has killed a lot of people who claim to have the courage of ten thousand people. ”

Song Huan laughed: "Lord Shenwu." ”

Zhao Run pretended to be angry: "You kid is scolding me around the corner!" ”

Song Huan smiled: "Don't dare, it's all heartfelt words." ”

Zhao Run turned around and walked into the cabin, Song Huan did not follow in, but quietly looked at the river.

In the capital, there was a commotion in the court hall in the early morning of this day, everyone was arguing, Lu Yu sat under the palace, coughed slightly, and the ministers quickly quieted down. Only then did Lu Yu speak: "The Qingzhou bandits have occupied the three county towns of Donglaiqi County in Beihai, what are your plans?" ”

"Prime Minister, these days are not just thieves, King Liang led more than 100,000 troops to prepare to enter Bingzhou, and His Royal Highness the Second Prince of the South brought 60,000 soldiers from the capital directly into Yizhou after leaving Xiangyang, it seems that he is going to enter Shu." Qi Liang, the secretary of the military department, took a step forward and said.

"Prime Minister, I might as well call on the world to suppress thieves, and let the state pastors and kings everywhere suppress thieves!" The then military department squire suggested.

"Everywhere is fighting for territory, and no one is heeding the summons, is it useful?" Someone immediately stood up to refute it.

"This summoning is not intended for them to do it, but for them to do it with confidence when they do it in the future?" Shi Zhang, the squire of the military department, explained, "The reason for today's chaos is that there are too many powerful soldiers and horses in various prefectures, and the Jingshi is unable to control it. ”

"This is what the emperor always wanted to do when he was alive." Lu Yu sighed, "Okay, tomorrow the Son of Heaven will issue an order, and all the state ministers will be sealed but there will be no rewards, so let them send troops to suppress the thieves." ”

A few days later, after King Liang received the summons of the Son of Heaven, he took a slight look and directly burned the summons of the Son of Heaven, and Song Huan didn't even have time to stop it.

King Liang only said one sentence to the officials from the capital: "What I want is the summons of the Son of Heaven, not Lu Yu's summons, only seal and not reward, and fool me as a child?" "Just let the officer go back.

Zhao Jian even directly asked people to lead troops at the border of Jingzhou to block the official in Jingzhou and prevent him from entering. As for the Qingzhou Prefecture Mu, he had already been stirred up by a headache, and there was no way to exterminate the Taiping Sect in the territory by relying only on his own ability.

The rest of the states are basically waiting and watching, and are not ready to send troops to suppress the thieves.

Only Zhao Yi, the governor of Xuzhou, began to reorganize the armament as soon as he received the order from the Son of Heaven, and he had to follow the order of the Son of Heaven to send troops to suppress the thieves.

Zhao Yi's military advisor disagreed with this, "My lord, the Son of Heaven is just an idiot, how can he issue a summoning order?" This summoning order is clearly issued by Lu Yu in the name of the Son of Heaven, if we really send troops, then what should Xuzhou do? Once Xuzhou is empty, there are not a few people who covet Xuzhou. ”

"You really think I don't know? I can't wait to rush into the palace and kill Lu Yu now! The Zhao family is also peaceful in the world, but after all, it is the summons of the Son of Heaven, the emperor is my brother, the Son of Heaven is my nephew, and now although he has become an idiot, he is still the Son of Heaven! Zhao Yi took the tiger talisman out of the room.

"After I leave, you stay in Xuzhou, and the six counties and fifty counties of Xuzhou will be handed over to you."

"If you want to go, I should follow." Tang Qing said respectfully.

"I can't take you with me, I don't worry about others staying in Xuzhou, I'll just take Zhong Ai." Zhao Yi took off his saber and handed it to Tang Qing, "This saber is handed over to you, if there is any disrespect to you, you can directly kill him with this sword, and I will forgive you for your innocence." ”

"Thanks to the importance of the adults, the ministers will guard Xuzhou for the adults, and set up a celebration banquet to wait for the adults to triumph, however, Zhong Ai is proud of his talents, I have understood this person when the adults first used him, and they are not of great use, and they will inevitably cause trouble in the future, please change the adults to follow it." Tang Qing knelt down and took the sword.

"After all, you are also a talented person, just polish your temperament, you are young and vigorous, and it is common for you to be arrogant, and when you are young, you are more than ten times more than him." Zhao Yi helped Tang Qing up and explained.

"Besides, you also have to use people in Xuzhou, if I take them away, who will you use? This matter is thus decided, you go down and do it, and ten days later, the army will set off from Xiapi and enter Qingzhou. ”

Tang Qing didn't want to say anything more, saying too much would make people suspect that he had abandoned his talents.

After Meng Liu of Beihai County found out the news, he hurriedly found Zhang Taibai.

"Don't worry, at least for now, only Xuzhou can have the energy to fight us, Xuzhou has a total of less than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the maximum number of people who can come is 60,000.

"Zhuang Ran has been recruiting new recruits these days, how many people are willing to join us?" Meng Liu asked.

"Now we have a total of 70,000 soldiers and horses, including 10,000 cavalry, 60,000 foot soldiers, 30,000 soldiers and horses in Beihai, 20,000 in Donglai, and 20,000 in Qijun. Most of them are new recruits, and it will take at least a year before they can go into battle to kill the enemy. At present, there are less than 50,000 that can be used. Zhang Taibai remembers these cumbersomeness very clearly, and Zhang Taibai is clear about the entire Taiping Sect's soldiers, horses, grains, and grass.
