However, it was said that Li Siyuan supported the emperor's son to succeed Liang as the emperor, and still appointed himself as the prisoner of the country, and continued to stay in the Xingsheng Palace as the dynasty, and only assigned the original Fuyan Palace to the little emperor's brothers to live in, so as to monitor nearby.

The privy envoy An Chongzhu regarded himself as having made great contributions to supporting Li Siyuan, serving favors and arrogance, cutting off dissidents in the court and supporting cronies, which is also powerful. Li Siyuan's nephew, Li Congcan, was originally a fierce general, upright, and clashed with An Chongzhi. As a result, An Chongzhi impeached Li Siyuan when he went to Bianliang last year to quell Zhu Shouyin's rebellion, and ordered Li Congcan to stay in the imperial city.

Li Siyuan listened to Xin'an's slanderous rumors, and even demoted Congcan to join the army as the secretary of Fangzhou, and then died.

Now that Li Siyuan is in power, like the lord of a country, he seems to have become unconscious, and his generals, including several sons, have also begun to have their own thoughts, and chaos has gradually arisen.

Yiwu Jiedu made the royal capital, and his beloved daughter Xu was married to the prince Jiqi, and Zhuang Zong became an in-law, which was naturally one with Jinyang. Two years ago, when Li Siyuan first entered Luoyang, he was uneasy in various places, and he could only be tolerant and inconsiderate. Now that the place is gradually stabilizing, Li Siyuan, the supervisor of the country, under the instigation of An Chongzhu, ordered Wang Yanqiu to recruit envoys to the north and send troops to attack Dingzhou.

In another time and space history, when Li Siyuan crusaded against Dingzhou, Wang De had no help on all sides, so he had to take refuge in the Khitan, and as a result, the two support armies sent by the Khitan lord Yelude were defeated by the Later Tang Dynasty, and Wang Du held Dingzhou for a year, and was finally broken by the Tang army, and the family was wiped out.

Now after Wang De learned that the southern army was coming, of course, he sent someone to Jinyang for help as soon as possible.

In mid-April, when Wang Desuo sent an envoy to Jinyang, Li Qi had just returned from Shanbei, and after learning the news of the southern army's attack on Dingzhou, he immediately summoned the generals to discuss countermeasures.

For the crisis of his father-in-law, he naturally can't sit idly by.

On the one hand, Li Qi ordered the troops stationed around Jinyang to send 6,000 soldiers and horses to the Beiyuan camp to concentrate, and on the other hand, he ordered Fu Yanchao, the defender of Shanbei, Pei Yue, and Bai Chengfu, the assassin of Xinzhou, to stand by in Ruzhou.

On April 20, it was the scorching sun, and after the order of Jinyang Palace was issued, the 6,000 Jinyang troops and 3,000 forbidden troops gathered in the Jinyang Beiyuan camp and were ready to go.

Since the wheat harvest season was approaching and the agricultural season could not be delayed, Li Qi did not let the whole army go out after receiving the order, but only transferred half of the troops from the garrison camps to Hebei to support the royal capital against the southern army.

The Jinyang Forbidden Army has 3,000 personal guards cavalry and 8,000 infantry troops, as well as 3,000 Jinbei Fan troops led by Zhang Mujin. When he sent troops to fight, he couldn't let the tribes under this gang be idle. To Li Qi's surprise, after his order was issued, Fuzhou Assassin Shi Zhi Congyuan actually led 2,500 Fuzhou cavalry troops to Jinyang, preparing to accompany him, the Son of Heaven, on the expedition.

This time, the army was sent to follow the operation, which was obviously a gesture of goodwill to him, the emperor.

In the history of China, the famous "Fold General" in the northwest is counted from the generation of Fold Congyuan. He had a very famous grandson-in-law named Yang Ye in the later romances, and his granddaughter Zhe Taijun was renamed "She Taijun" in the later romances.

The Fuzhou Zhejia family, like the Dangxiang Tuoba clan, was originally a descendant of Xianbei and lived in the area of the Tao River in Longnan. Later, because of the strength of Tibet, with the Dangxiang Qiang attached to the Tang Dynasty, moved to the Yellow River Qubu area of the nomadic settlement, because of the mixed with the Dangxiang Qiang Department, by the end of the Tang Dynasty has been obviously assimilated by the Party Xiang, counted as one of the eight departments of the Party.

However, due to the deep sinicization of the Fuzhou Zhen clan, they did not obey the dispatch of the Tuoba Department of the party leader, but instead submitted to the Central Plains Dynasty, and tried their best to limit the expansion of the party Xiang Qiang to Hedong and Yunnei, which is also a bit peculiar.

It may be that he is afraid that his clan and territory will be annexed by the Tuoba clan of the party.

It took Li Qi two years to expand the number of military households in northern Shanxi, Yunzhou, and Shanbei to more than 30,000, and anyway, the money and grain he earned were invested in the development of new military camps. There is no way to do this, raising and expanding the army is too expensive to eat.

What is the combat strength of these "Tuntian Xiang Army" under his command, Li Qi does not have much bottom in his heart. However, Yuan Xingqin, Fu Yanqing, An Xianqi and other generals were full of confidence. Not for anything else, just because these soldiers have a better life, they basically look strong and strong at a glance, and their faces are full of red light.

Anyway, there should be no problem with starving for a day or two, unlike other troops in the country, if you are hungry for a day and don't eat, you will almost collapse and collapse.

Now the living and physical reserves of the Jinyang Northern Army seem to be slightly better than those of the Southern Army, and the sustained combat capability is stronger than that of the other side.

On the colonel field of the Beiyuan camp in Jinyang City, two red handsome flags embroidered with huge Tang characters and Li characters were raised in front of the general platform in the camp, and they were hunting and flying in the wind. The nearly 10,000 Jinyang troops who are about to go to battle, with their helmets and armor, have lined up neatly. On the temporary platform, Li Qi was also dressed in military uniform, and was presiding over the flag sacrifice ceremony before the expedition.

Personally led Kang Jiu up a black bull, Yuan Ren held a Yanling scimitar, stabbed down, cut the black bull's artery and throat, and splashed cow blood sprinkled onto the flagpole.

It doesn't seem to be spraying very accurately!

These are the last sections, Li Qi shouted to an iron horn set up in front of him, and shouted to the army: "Raise soldiers for a thousand days, use soldiers for a while, now is the time for you to make contributions!" The rules in the army are naturally very clear, if you go to the battlefield, if you don't listen to orders, don't blame the ruthless military law at that time! ”

Li Qi only said a few words, and then directly grabbed a command arrow, and then began to order.

After the assignment was completed, Li Qi stood up: "The generals listen to the order!" The whole army is on the march! ”

"No, the whole army will go to battle immediately!" There was a roaring response from the high stage!

As the heavy war drums began to beat, Li Qi just quietly looked at the nearly 10,000 soldiers under his command for a while, did not speak, and then nodded, and the herald standing behind him, He Xuan, waved the order flag. Wang Quanbin, the former army commander, first got on his horse, saluted with his hands and fists at the Son of Heaven Li Qi, and then led his team to gallop out of the school camp gate, followed by the left army led by Fu Yanqing and the right army led by Kang Tai, and then the baggage troops of the Chinese army and the rear army set off in turn.

However, Li Qi transferred 600 young pro-troops from Jinyang Academy, escorted by them, and walked with the baggage troops, and the Chinese army was instead led by the privy envoy Yuan Xingqin.

On April 20 of the second year of the Republic, Li Qi personally led the Jinyang army to ride more than 15,000 horses and horses after becoming emperor, and the troops left Taiyuan to rescue the Yiwu army.

At the same time, after receiving the military order, the generals Pei Yue and Bai Chengfu, who stayed in Shanbei, had to order 5,000 soldiers and horses to go to Ulzhou, and rendezvous with Ulzhou Thorn Shi An Xianhui, a total of 8,000 soldiers and horses, from Feihu Road to Yizhou. Fu Yanchao, the defense envoy of Fuzhou, began to garrison the southern pass and threatened the northern part of Youzhou......
