But what can Zhao Tianci do? Xiao Tianjian wants to do this, as long as he doesn't want to die, he can only do it according to his requirements, when he saw Xiao Tianjian's subordinates rushing down to give orders, Zhao Tianci had to clench his fists and say goodbye, Xiao Tianjian pulled Zhao Tianci to personally send him out of the door, and also earnestly instructed that if he lacked anything, just talk, he would definitely find a way to take care of Zhao Tianci's family!

Early the next morning, the big families listed on the list in the city were all copied by the Xing Tianjun overnight, and the accusations against these rich families listed in the name of Zhao Tianci were posted everywhere in the streets and alleys, saying that it was not a pity for the big families in the city to die in the fish and meat township.

Immediately, the people in the city were in an uproar, at first some people didn't believe that the Lord of Ruzhou would actually break the city and follow the thieves, but then the streets and alleys spread all over the streets and alleys that this list was indeed drawn up by Zhao Tianci, so everyone gradually believed that this was the truth.

As an official like the governor of a state surrendered to the Xingtian Army, whether it was the Xingtian Army or other rebels, it can be said that it was something that had never happened before, after the news spread, the Xingtian Army was even more happy, although this matter is not a big deal, but in the eyes of ordinary soldiers, it is definitely a major event worth flaunting.

Zhao Tianci's surrender represents that today's Ming officials have seen the weakness and incompetence of the imperial court, and some people have begun to want to follow the imperial court, but would rather surrender to the righteous army, which shows that the Xingtian Army has been strong enough to compete with this imperial court.

And Niu Jinxing also felt that Xiao Tianjian's forced landing on Zhao Tianci was really a clever move, like accepting a court member of the level of Zhao Tianci is undoubtedly a great insult to the imperial court, and at the same time, it undoubtedly plays an exemplary role for the officials of the official system, so that when the Xingtianjun acts again in the future, it is more likely to be recognized by some local officials, and it will also play a great role in recruiting more literati to work.

So under the prodding of Niu Jinxing, Xiao Tianjian even officially ordered Zhao Tianci to be the governor of Ruzhou, although it was just a nominal Zhizhou, but he insisted on bringing Zhao Tianci out as an example, Zhao Tianci had the intention not to do it, but he couldn't stop Xiao Tianjian from doing it, anyway, he took over the local civil affairs and his own cadres, etc., he didn't need him Zhao Tianci to really do something, so he could only pinch his nose in the new home and admit it.

Through this battle, Xiao Tianjian tested the combat ability of the generals under his command, and also for the recruits of the various armies, it also gave them a new understanding of the strength of the Xingtian Army, so that through this siege battle, they initially gained some actual combat experience, and also gave them more confidence in themselves.

It can be said that the Battle of Ruzhou laid the foundation for the Xingtian Army's future strategy in the Central Plains, and also played the prestige of the Xingtian Army in the future siege war, and tempered the siege tactics of the Xingtian Army.

Because the siege of Ruzhou was fought beautifully, it bought more time for the Xingtian Army, and in just one day, the Xingtian Army firmly controlled the Ruzhou City in its hands, and Xiao Tianjian moved outside the city according to the old habit, after controlling the Ruzhou City, he summoned the officers above the squadron to conduct a post-war summary review of the battle in the battalion, pointed out the performance of the various departments of the Xingtian Army in this battle, and commended a group of brave generals in this battle, and punished a group of people who were afraid of war.

It is also Xiao Tianjian who has been good at summing up experience in various battles since the founding of the army, so that the officers in the army can often draw a lot of experience from the First World War, so that the officers of the Xingtian Army mature faster than the generals in other righteous armies, and inject considerable vitality into the further development of the Xingtian Army.

On the second day after Ruzhou was conquered by the Xingtian Army, the city of Luoyang received the news, and there was an uproar immediately.

Now the west of Luoyang City, Mianchi County, was also captured by the Xingtian Army, and Ruzhou in the south was lost again, which made the situation in Luoyang more dangerous, and it was almost half surrounded by the Xingtian Army.

So Feng Yijun hurriedly sent someone to Xiong Wencan again, and at the same time sent someone to report to the capital for 800 miles, begging the Beijing division to send an army to rescue Luoyang, and even jumped over the wall in a hurry, and directly sent someone to find a way to bypass the pond and ask Hong Chengchou who was sitting on three sides for help.

Things have come to this point, not to mention that Feng Yijun is in a hurry, even the Fu King in the city is a little anxious, you must know that other people really can't clean up and run away, but as a vassal king, according to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, he is never allowed to leave Luoyang City, not only he can't leave, even his children are not allowed to leave Luoyang City, once they go out of the city, there is a suspicion of rebellion, on the one hand, the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty can be said to enjoy all the glory and wealth, on the other hand, it is not good to say, it is a group of pigs and sheep that have been raised in captivity.

Therefore, King Fu sent people to Feng Yijun again and again to put pressure on Feng Yijun, so that Feng Yijun could find a way to quickly retreat from the enemy and take back the fields he had been seized by the thief army.

Feng Yijun is so angry! King Fu is standing and talking without back pain, if he could destroy or drive away the Xingtian Army, he would have done it without King Fu's urging, but he didn't have many troops in his hands, not to mention, and these officers and soldiers are really rotten at home, even the Guanning Army under the command of Zu Kuanzu Dale, whom they regard as dependent, is planted in the hands of the Xingtian Army, how can he have the slightest way to retreat from the enemy?

Now it is needless to say that it is a retreat from the enemy, even whether Luoyang City can be kept is already a matter between the two, Luoyang is now drawn everywhere, but it is only a few thousand soldiers and generals, and whether these soldiers can be used is still unknown, if Xiong Wencan and Hong Chengchou do not send troops to rescue in time, Luoyang City is also hanging!

This is not counting, Feng Yijun searched everywhere for soldiers to come to Luoyang City to help in the war, even those soldiers and horses in Yiyang he also transferred back more than 2,000 people, Yiyang only left less than 2,000 officers and soldiers to guard, and so many officers and soldiers were pulled outside Luoyang City, and he had to personally solve the food and drink, as well as the matter of paying the officers and soldiers, which made Feng Yijun even more anxious, so Feng Yijun discussed with King Fu and wanted to ask King Fu to borrow tens of thousands of taels of silver first, and send it down first to stabilize the morale of the army and survive this period of time.

But he didn't think that as soon as Feng Yijun's request was raised, he was rejected by King Fu, not to mention tens of thousands of taels of silver, King Fu didn't even plan to take out a penny, in his opinion, the matter of guarding the land is the emperor's business, and it has nothing to do with him, the vassal king, the soldier's guard, when the emperor's nephew Zhu Youzhen has the responsibility and obligation to pay the soldiers, why do you want them to pay the vassal kings now? There is no such reason in this world, so King Fu is an iron rooster who does not pull out a hair, and he refuses to pay anything.

On the contrary, King Fu was still full of complaints about Feng Yijun, saying that he had a huge family business, so many people followed him to eat and drink, and spent too much money every day, and now his large grain field was occupied by the thief army, and his life was beyond his means, where is there any silver for Feng Yijun to pay the officers and soldiers! So not only does he have no money, but now he wants Feng Yijun to help him!

Feng Yijun almost fainted on the spot, who doesn't know that King Fu's family wealth rivals the country! Not to mention that he has tens of millions of taels of silver, at least there is no problem with seven or eight million in his family, but this Fu Wang is stunned, he can't let people rush into the Fu Wang's Mansion to rob it!

So at the moment, he only has to wait for Xiong Wencan, the governor of the five provinces, to solve this matter, as for whether the Xingtian Army will come to attack Luoyang City first before Xiong Wencan leads his troops to the rescue, he has no choice!

It is said that Xiong Wencan, who was commanding various officials and troops in Xiangyang to attack Zhang Xianzhong and other Lu Yi troops, suddenly received Feng Yijun's urgent message, and learned that the Xingtian Army, which had been dormant in western Henan for nearly half a year and had not continued to expand, suddenly sent troops from two ways to attack Michi and Ruzhou, and was immediately taken aback.

The person sent by Feng Yijun said very clearly, judging that the target of Xingtianjun's action this time must be Luoyang City, and begged Xiong Wencan to quickly dispatch troops to the rescue.

As for Feng Yijun's judgment, after Xiong Wencan thought about it, he felt that it was indeed very possible, although the Xingtianjun had not expanded its territory in the past six months, it would definitely not be idle to do anything, and now that they occupy the five counties of western Henan, they will definitely recruit troops, and their strength will improve a lot, and they will feed so many thieves and soldiers, it is obviously not possible to rely on the five counties in western Henan alone, so if they want to achieve great things, they must find a way to obtain more resources and money in order to support them to continue to grow, no matter who it is, Standing at the point of the thief army, they will lock their eyes on the rich Luoyang City, so it makes sense for Feng Yijun to judge that the sudden force of the Heavenly Army this time is to attack Luoyang.

For Luoyang City, Xiong Wencan knows that it can't be lost no matter what, not to mention the status of Luoyang City, just because the blessed king in the city, Zhu Changxun, is the uncle of the current saint, once Luoyang is lost, he, the governor of the five provinces, can't afford it, so Xiong Wencan was also a little panicked.
