In the battle outside the county town of Changzi, the news of Zhang Oyster's defeat soon spread throughout the surrounding counties. For these dock castle owners of the Shangdang, this means that the land of the Shangdang is likely to be ruled by the Huashan Army in the future. After all, under the situation that Zhang Ping's army was blocked, Shangdang County could be said to be the dominant Huashan army.

Although the combined forces of each family may be more numerous than the Huashan Army in Shangdang. But as everyone knows, it's not a simple matter of addition and subtraction. A large number of people cannot decide everything, not to mention, everyone is not of one mind, and it is impossible to unite to deal with the Huashan army.

Those who were already a little interested in recruiting the Huashan Army were naturally more inclined to the Huashan Army at this time. Some people who originally wanted to remain neutral can't help but start thinking about their future at this time.

Among the crowd, the only one who felt angry was probably Feng Yang. After getting the news, he smashed almost everything in his room.

"How so? This oyster is so useless! After the first battle, he was actually captured. This official is still counting on him to be able to drag down the Huashan army! And that Zhang Ping, who is also incompetent, a small Wuxiang county, actually blocked his army of 20,000! Feng Yang was furious in the mansion, scolding Zhang Oyster, scolding Zhang Ping, scolding Li Xin and Hua Shanjun, in short, scolding those who didn't like the eye.

"Fujun, now Li Xin has led the army north to support Wuxiang County. With the support of these 3,000 soldiers and horses, it will be even more difficult for Zhang Yuanjun to take Wuxiang County again, what should we do? Zheng Sanxue asked on the side.

"What to do? How does the officer know what to do? I thought that he, Zhang Ping, had a lot of soldiers and should be able to stop Li Xin, but who would have expected such a result. By the way, you hurriedly send someone to the north, detour from Leping County to Zhang Ping's camp, and tell him the news of Zhang Hao's defeat. And, tell him about Li Xin's support in the north, so that he doesn't have to fight Wuxiang County anymore, and quickly think of another way out! After scolding for a while, he thought of some methods, and explained to Zheng Sanxue at this time.

"Yes, my subordinates will do it!"

When Feng Yang was angry, Li Xin had already led people to Wuxiang County day and night. Along the way, the messengers kept coming and going, all of which were in contact with Liao Chuan.

Judging from the latest news, Zhang Ping was obviously ruthless, and the 20,000 army attacked the county seat of Wuxiang day and night. All kinds of siege equipment took turns to fight, and there was no stopping for a moment. After seven or eight days, the small county town of Wuxiang was almost in ruins.

Especially at the north gate of the front, the city wall collapsed in several places. Zhang Ping's soldiers were killed in the city several times, but thanks to Liao Chuan's heroic resistance led by the soldiers, the other party did not succeed.

Under such a big battle, Zhang Ping's side suffered a lot of losses, but the losses on Liao Chuan's side were not small. Up to now, they can still pick up weapons and kill the enemy, and there are only more than 1,300 people left. Although there is no problem in holding on any longer, if there are no reinforcements for a long time, I am afraid that in the end, Wuxiang County will definitely fall.

"Brothers! On the side of Changzi County, Li Shen defeated the enemy army, and Zhang Hao's 5,000-strong army was wiped out! Now, the general is leading 3,000 soldiers and horses to support us in the starry night, and we will be able to arrive in a few days! We must defend this city, wait for the general to arrive, and then kill together to avenge the brothers who died in battle! In Wuxiang County, Liao Chuan, who got the news of Li Xin, immediately announced the good news to everyone.

"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! General Wan Sheng! General Wan Sheng! The soldiers who were already exhausted, when they heard the good news at this time, they all immediately regained their spirits, and they all waved and shouted one by one, and the exhaustion was swept away. Everyone's eyes have become more determined.

Just when Li Xin rushed to Wuxiang County to support, in Wenxi County, Hedong County at this time, Liu Xiaohai had just fallen asleep.

Although after returning to Wenxi from Yiguan, he has nothing important for the time being, but he is still used to reading at night. So, it's not very early to go to bed every day.

But today, as soon as he fell asleep, he had to get up again because of the urgent delivery of the official document. If Liao Chuan is not there, all these military information will be sent to him.

"General, this is the latest military information sent by the spies from the north. Before Zhang Ping led his army south to Wuxiang County, another 30,000 troops mobilized from all over the country are now all gathered in the areas of Pingtao, Jingling, and Wuxian. Its forward 4,000 men and horses have already begun to move south, preparing to seize Yong'an County and Puzi County! "The military information was sent by the staff department, so it was written in great detail.

After Liu Xiaohai looked at it carefully, he couldn't help but take out the map, and after looking at it for a while, he instructed his own soldiers: "Send someone to invite Deputy General Zhao over, as well as Captain Hong and Zhou Fujun!" Let them meet me tomorrow in the county office! ”

Zhao Ji led his army to garrison the south bank of Fenshui at the junction of Fenyin County and Wenxi County, and the main precautionary point was Pishi and Linfen County in Pingyang County in the north, to prevent local forces there from crossing Fenshui.

Of course, where did the local forces dare to attack the idea of the Huashan Army, mainly to prevent Zhang Ping from the north from moving south. Now, that's where it comes in handy.

As for Wenxi's side, it is responsible for preventing the area from Jiangyi County to Huize County and to Yiguan. Relatively speaking, Liu Xiaohai's side has the advantage of topography, but the area is much larger, and Zhao Ji's side is just the opposite.

Hong Yi was stationed near the Salt Pond, and they had two large camps, one east of the Salt Pond and one west of the Salt Pond. In this way, when they train on weekdays, they go back and forth between the two camps.

In this way, the average person simply does not understand when and where they are stationed.

As for Zhou Fang, he took care of the internal affairs of the county in the county magistrate county. After receiving the letter from Liu Xiaohai, he immediately set off for Wenxi County.

"Summoned everyone over, mainly because of Zhang Ping's matter. As the general expected, Zhang Ping mobilized an army of 30,000 and will soon go south to capture Pingyang County! At this point, we can't wait for the war to come to the door, it's better to strike first. After all, the general often said that the enemy is outside the country, and the stability of this Hedong is not easy to come by, so they can't be destroyed! After everyone arrived, a secret meeting was held in the county office, and Liu Xiaohai said first.

"Well, we've been prepared for this for a long time. Now that the other party has already done it, then we can also act. Over the past year, although our soldiers and horses have not crossed Fenshui, they have taken action against the counties of Pingyang. But there is no shortage of preparations, and now it's time to harvest! Zhou Fang nodded and said.

"The key is the issue of soldiers and horses! The general sent nearly 10,000 troops to join the party, although the soldiers were replenished from Guanzhong, but if we want to take Pingyang County, but also block Zhang Ping's 30,000 army, I am afraid it will not be easy. After thinking for a while, Zhao Ji asked a question.

"There are 1,000 cavalry and 5,000 infantry soldiers in Hedong County, and it is impossible to occupy all the county seats in Pingyang County! Fortunately, Hedong is still peaceful today, and these soldiers and horses are not far away, once there is something in Hedong County, whether it is from Shangdang, Guanzhong, or Hongnong, soldiers and horses can be mobilized to deal with it. In this way, in addition to the 1,000 defenders of Yiguan and Keiguan, and the 1,000 soldiers and horses left in Anyi and Puban counties, the only troops that can be used are only 3,000 foot soldiers and 1,000 cavalry! After Hong Yi calculated it, his face was a little unpleasant.

Yiguan faced Hanoi County, and put 500 soldiers and horses to guard it, plus there were 500 people in Jiguan after it, which was a thousand soldiers and horses guarding Yiguan. Facing Yan Guo, a powerful opponent in the east, it is naturally impossible for one person to draw it.

And Anyi has 500 people, which is reserved for the Zhou side as a mobile force to deal with unexpected problems. The 500 soldiers and horses on the side of Pusaka were set up to protect the ferry and prevent the soldiers and horses from coming over after an accident in the east of the river.

Nor can this be taken away. And the entire Binh Duong County has 12 counties, and the north, south, east and west regions span a large area, and in peacetime, these troops are no problem. But once a major war broke out, these forces seemed to be stretched.

"The main purpose of this time is to seize key places. At the same time, blocking Zhang Ping's soldiers and horses from moving south to gain time for the battle between the general's side and Zhang Ping was not to take the entire Pingyang County. Therefore, although there are fewer soldiers and horses, we can use them well and can also have a good effect. Liu Xiaohai looked at a few people and said slowly.

"Yes, most of the military grain and grass in the land of Shangdang are shipped from the east of the river. This is already a lot of pressure, and if a large number of troops are gathered here to fight the enemy, the pressure will be too great. Even if we win the battle in the end, I'm afraid we won't be able to recover in a short time! "Zhou Fang is the Taishou of Hedong, and he is responsible for the latest logistics, so he naturally knows how much pressure there is.

"Zhang Ping went south to seize Pingyang County, and his purpose is ultimately us! Of the 12 counties in Pingyang County, seven are on both sides of the Fenshui River, two are east of Taihang and west of Gaodu. The remaining three are on the east bank of the big river in the southwest of Taiyuan County. For us, the two counties of Duanshi and Huze, which are close to Gaodu, can be ignored for the time being, and the three counties on the east bank of the river are beyond the reach of the whip! In this way, the seven counties on the banks of Fenshui can now be started! Liu Xiaohai nodded, then pointed to the map and analyzed.

"Among these seven counties, Pishi, Linfen and Jiangyi are the closest to us. Moreover, in the past year, the relationship with us has also been good, and if you want to win it, it should not be a big problem. Of the remaining four counties, Xiangling, Pingyang, Yang and Yong'an counties, Pingyang County is the seat of county governance and should be taken. Yongan County is located on the main road from Taiyuan to Pingyang, and the terrain here is important, so we must take it! Zhao Ji pointed to the Fenshui line and said.
