Li Qi returned to Jinyang after the autumn harvest, and a layer of wheat seedlings had grown in the fields on both sides of the official road, and as far as the eye could see, it was full of green, and this scenery was very characteristic of later generations, so that his expression couldn't help but be abrupt.

The biggest defect of Jinyang Palace is that there is no hot spring nearby, and when bathing, the maids in the palace need to pour the boiled water into the bath. After Li Qi soaked in the bath, Wang Qiang, as the queen, put the waiting palace maids aside, planning to personally serve Li Qi to take a bath.

Li Qi, who was lying on the soft couch, obviously felt that Wang Qiang had something on his mind, and couldn't help laughing: "Tuyuhun and Hui are both big clans, and I agreed to include other people's daughters in the palace, also to better control them." The business under my name and everything in the harem are still taken care of by you, don't think too much about it, the queen. ”

In order to completely control the Tuyuhun tribes, Li Qi included Zhang Yun, the daughter of Zhang Mujin, the defense envoy of Yunshuo and the assassin of Shuozhou, into the harem in the spring, and later married the princess of Ganzhou Huifu when he was in Hexi. With the increase of ladies in this harem, it seems that Wang Qiang feels a little crisis.

After hearing this, Wang Qiang obviously felt a little more relaxed, and gently stroked Li Qi's sideburns with her hand and said: "The concubine has been married for so long, and she is not pregnant, even if the emperor marries someone else, it is also appropriate for the emperor to marry." It's just that His Majesty shaved his hair short, and the concubines thought that the emperor disliked us and was ready to escape into the empty door. ”

Only then did Li Qi understand what she was worried about, and reached out and touched a handful of short hair that had just grown out of her head, and couldn't help laughing: "It turns out that the queen is afraid that I will run away to become a monk, so don't worry." In the army, the short shaving of hair is to facilitate the treatment of injuries, and the rules are promulgated by me, so I should lead by example. With a wife like you in this family, I am reluctant to leave it alone, and I have never believed in any gods or Buddhas. As for the children, I have indeed been busy with state affairs in the past few years, and the time I spent with the queen was too short. This kind of thing is the same as farming, hard work can grow crops, and on the way back, I have already decided that this winter is to accompany the queen more, and make a successor first......"

Li Qi was at the age of great anger, and his brother had already stood tall with his head held high, so he sat up, picked up Wang Qiang directly and went to the low couch on the side. On this day, the thunder and the earth are on fire, and the dry wood is in the fire...... In fact, thinking about himself as an emperor, it is also pitiful, in order to set an example for those Qiu Ba generals in the army, since he left Hexi, in the past half a year, he has not even had a woman waiting by his side......

……

The plan is not as fast as the change, Li Qigang wanted to have a good experience of the erosive court life in this winter, but he didn't want to think about it in October of the sixth year of the republic, but Fu Xi, the envoy of the Pinglu Festival in Qingzhou, suddenly turned back and threw himself into the northern army. Now that the war between the north and the south broke out again, Li Qi was the time to accumulate prestige, and such a good thing could not be missed, so he decided to go to the front line of Weibo again.

This Fu Xiben was a subordinate of Wang Rong, the king of Zhao, who led more than 10,000 German troops to fight across the river with the king of Jin and the Liang army. Later, Zhang Wenli of Zhenzhou made a rebellion, and Wang Rong was killed by Jiedu, and after the Jin army lost several generals, Li Cunxian finally led the army to quell the Zhenzhou rebellion, and Fu Xi was appointed by Zhuang Zong as the envoy of the Chengde Army.

During the Tongguang period, Fu Xi moved to Qingzhou, and after Li Siyuan raised troops from Yedu, he took refuge in Li Siyuan.

After Li Qi recovered Wei Bo, the Jizhou Assassin Shi Wutai appointed by Li Qi and Fu Xi were both from the Chengde army, and they were also in-laws. The two were adjacent to each other, and the correspondence continued, and Fu Xi saw that the Luoyang Dynasty was in chaos, and Li Siyuan's control was getting weaker and weaker because of his illness, so he began to seek a way out by himself, and he had the idea of returning to the Northern Army.

After An Chongzhu's family was executed, Li Siyuan intended to transfer Xi into the court. Fu Xi saw that the northern army was getting stronger and stronger, and under the instigation and persuasion of Utai, plus Xia Ruqi was in the middle as a guarantor. He announced his separation from Luoyang and returned to the Northern Army.

After getting the news, Li Qi ordered Xia Luqi to lead the army across the Yellow River and join the Qingzhou army, and ordered Pei Yue to lead the Shanbei army and the Dingzhou army to attack Zhuozhou, and the Mozhou defender Wang Quanbin and the Jizhou defender Wutai led the army to attack Cangzhou to support the Qingzhou army anyway.

Because it was a cavalry army, it moved relatively quickly, and the 30,000 Jinyang forbidden troops arrived in Zhenzhou in mid-October.

The army camped in Xi'an, the city of Zhenzhou, and the Zhenzhou guard general Yuan Xingkai welcomed Li Qi into the city.

The generals were summoned to the military office.

Li Qi said: "I have some thoughts about Youzhou, Shi Jingjiao, the envoy of Youzhou Jiedu, is Li Siyuan's son-in-law, and the more than 40,000 Youzhou troops under his jurisdiction are the elite of the Southern Army, if they are eliminated, the Southern Army is basically a force that can be defeated." This time, we went to Yizhou, and together with Pei You, we attacked Youzhou. ”

When Lu Yan heard Li Qi's arrangement, he couldn't help asking: "The Southern Army is attacking Weizhou from Lanzhou, doesn't the Son of Heaven want to save Weizhou?" ”

Li Qi glanced at him and replied: "This is the strategy to encircle Wei and save Zhao, Weizhou is an important town in the north, the city is high and strong, and there are more than 20,000 infantry troops, so Li Conghou can't help the defenders in the city for the time being, so there is no need to worry about it." ”

Yuan Xingqin also said: "What Your Majesty is planning is the overall situation, which is really the best policy, take a far-sighted view, and you will experience the wonderful taste." ”

So Li Qi ordered Lu Yan, the counselor of the army, to draft an edict, and sent Yuan Xingkai as an envoy to Cangzhou to persuade Yichang to make Zhao Dejun return to Jinyang anyway.

After Yuan Xingkai was ordered to leave Zhenzhou, Li Qi ordered: "The army will first move to Mozhou and camp, which is located between Youzhou and Cangzhou. ”

So the army repaired in Zhenzhou for a day, and on April 17, marched to Mozhou (Renqiu) and stationed outside the city.

According to the scout's report, the southern army in the Fanyang area has been assembled in Zhuozhou to hold the city, and several peaks and fires in the area of Qigou Pass have also been lit. It seems that the Youzhou side already knows the actions of the Jinyang army and is ready to hold the city wall.

Yuan Xingkai didn't see Zhao Dejun.

When Zhao Dejun heard that Li Qiqin had led a large army from Zhenzhou, he thought that Cangzhou, where he was located, had become the focus of the Northern Army's attack. This guy thinks that he is Li Siyuan's in-laws, and Li Qi will never let him go easily. The Cangzhou Yichang Army has less than 20,000 soldiers and horses, where can it withstand the Northern Army?

Zhao Dejun was also single, immediately abandoned Cangzhou, and simply led the army to retreat to Youzhou. He led his army to the territory of Wen'an, but was stopped by Wang Quanbin with 3,000 cavalry. Fortunately, Zhao Dejun's general Wu Congzhi was very brave, led 5,000 Khitan Cong Ma Zhi to meet the battle, and fought hard to kill Wang Quanbin, so as to ensure that Zhao Dejun retreated to Youzhou and joined forces with Shi Jingjiao.

Yuan Xingkai was ordered to go to Yingzhou (Hejian), and heard that Zhao Dejun had fled, so he had to return to Mozhou to resume his life.

When Li Qi heard that Zhao Dejun had abandoned the town and fled to Youzhou, he ordered the privy envoy Yuan Xingqin to lead the Zhen, the soldiers and horses of Dinger Town and the Shanbei Army to attack Youzhou, and he led 20,000 cavalry troops to cross the Yellow River from Panhe Town, Dezhou, and went straight to Qizhou, where he personally handled military affairs in the south.

Due to Fu Xi's rebellion, the Northern Army lightly captured the two military towns of Cangzhou and Qingzhou, and finally extended its power to the south of the Yellow River. At this point, the people of the southern army were panicked, and some of the post-Tang military towns who were used to doing the grass on the wall had already secretly communicated with the northern army and defected to the northern army behind their backs......
