Chapter 68: The Restoration of the Bohai Sea

"Kill!"

Standing on the city wall, looking from afar, I saw the black smoke of the enemy camp in the distance, shouting to kill and shake the ground, and the three big flags each wrote the three big characters of "Xu", "Chu" and "Qi" in red, leading the soldiers to rampage through the enemy camp like a long dragon. The three banners were invincible, and the enemy soldiers were pouring urine everywhere they passed, and they could only escape, without the slightest resistance.

Xu Qing is here!

When Duan Hongchen saw it, he couldn't hold his breath and smiled. Immediately, Duan Hongchen went out of the city and attacked the alliance of the three small countries together with Xu Qing. The coalition forces were further and more dispersed, but in a few moments, nearly 3,000 men surrendered.

After the war, the sunset was like blood, paying tribute to all the dead souls.

cleaned up the battlefield, divided the two thousand and eight captives into seven divisions for management, and then Chujiang Qitai and Duan Hongchen each took back their soldiers, and they didn't communicate first. Xu Qing

Broken Hongchen met outside the city.

When they met, they brought only five or six retinues with them, in order to avoid a ceremonial problem. One is the king of the dark river, the other is the king of the Bohai Sea, and when the two kings meet, who should worship whom? One is a landlord, the other is an old leader, who should invite whom to "eat"?

Both were smart enough to steer clear of this awkward question. In front of a few cronies, then no one worships anyone. Worship is not worship, but it can be called indispensable:

"Dark River King ......" broke off the red dust road, and Xu Qing also said:

"Bohai King ......"

The two nodded, this is considered the end of the greetings, Xu Qing continued: "I'm not late, am I?" ”

After Xu Qing annihilated the Goguryeo reinforcements, he eliminated the troubles and immediately transferred troops to support Duan Hongchen. When the movement reached the vicinity, it was found that the coalition forces of the three small countries were already in chaos, so they attacked decisively, and happened to form a flanking attack with Duan Hongchen.

Duan Hongchen laughed, strode up to Xu Qing and said, "It's just the right time!" Xu Qing also smiled, and listened to Hongchen and continued: "It is worthy of being the King of the Dark River, and he actually killed their leader without knowing it, tsk, why didn't I think of it in the first place?" ”

Xu Qing waved his hand, no longer talking about anything about the battle, but said: "It seems that you have changed a lot since you returned to Liaodong......" Before breaking Hongchen, he was more like a silent wandering monk, but now he is like a calm and bold general.

Duan Hongchen put away his joy, and only smiled and said, "Home......"

Xu Qing knew that he had been in a foreign country for decades, so he would naturally not be too extroverted and lonely. Loneliness is habitual.

Chatting and chatting, talking about the changes in the dark river, hearing that the dark river suffered a catastrophe, Broken Hongchen sighed, and then comforted Xu Qingdao, now that the dark river has been reborn, Xu Qing was also very emotional, nodded, now the dark river is much stronger than before, it is indeed a phoenix nirvana.

"Where's Xu Qi?"

Duan Hongchen was silent, and glanced behind Xu Qing mysteriously, and before Xu Qing turned around, he heard a "stinky Xu Qing". Then, a small figure pounced, and then there was a huge pain on Xu Qing's arm.

It turned out that Xu Qi had been standing behind Xu Qing for a long time, just waiting for Xu Qing to mention her, but she didn't expect Xu Qing and Duan Hongchen to mention her for so long, which made her not angry and bit Xu Qing's arm.

In the hot weather at this time, Xu Qing only wore half an arm, and this bite left a row of tooth marks. And Xu Qi took a bite, but he didn't mean to let go, Xu Qing couldn't help the pain, and he was in a hurry, and said:

"Xu Qi, don't bite, my arm was injured, and if you bite me again, I'll be broken."

The words came from Xu Qing's mouth and entered the ears of the people present, others knew that Xu Qing was teasing Xu Qi, but Xiaoyue next to her turned red, because she heard the sentence "If you bite me again, I will be broken".

However, Xu Qi hurriedly let go of Xu Qing, held Xu Qing's arm, and said with a sad and distressed face: "Ah? It's hurt, where, where! ”

Xu Qing saw that he had "taken off the tiger's mouth", hurriedly pulled out his hand, jumped to the side, rubbed his hands gently, and looked at several of his guards, meaning that someone attacked me secretly, why don't you squeak, don't fight! The guards hurriedly explained: "This is the eldest lady, we recognize it, we recognize it......"

In the past, Xu Qi also had such a quarrel with Xu Qing when he was at home, and the guards were used to it, so Xu Qing had to shake his head, and then looked at Xu Qi with a vigilant face. Xu Qi reacted at this time, and felt that he couldn't bear it, so he pounced on it again to bite, but was grabbed by Xu Qing and hugged him.

Xu Qing shook Xu Qi and then said:

"Little girl, it's a lot heavier~"

"Loosen up, bad Xu Qing, stinky Xu Qing, let go!"

"I can let go, you have to promise not to bite me."

"Okay, okay, don't bite, don't bite, stink, who's going to bite you?"

"Stink? Where it stinks. Xu Qing sniffed his body, and he didn't know if he didn't smell it, but this smell, Xu Qing almost didn't vomit out what he ate in the morning.

Seeing Xu Qing deflated, Xu Qi smiled and jumped out of Xu Qing's "embrace". Then I saw Huang Shimei dressed as a man on the side, pointed at her and said, "Huh? Xu Qing, is this a new servant? I haven't seen ......."

Although Xu Qi said so, a small face was full of resentful expressions, and everyone understood that Xu Qi was asking knowingly. She knew that the one who could accompany Xu Qing all the way must not be an ordinary woman, let alone a servant.

Xu Qing smiled and returned: "She is your third sister-in-law...... Xu Qi said goodbye in the letter last time she wanted to marry Xu Qing, Xu Qing only said that she was a child, and the wind blew away, so she didn't care, and she was still her sister. Huang Shimei is Xu Qing's wife, so she is naturally Xu Qi's sister-in-law.

Xu Qi raised her head and said stubbornly: "What third sister-in-law, I want to call her sister!" ”

Xu Qing looked at Duan Hongchen and found that he didn't care, so he crossed his chest and said to Xu Qi: "Alas, when you grow to this height, I will talk about this ......"

"What about Sister Cher?"

"She gave birth to a baby......"

"What? What is the name of a child, male or female? ”

"It's my younger brother, my name is Xu Wen......"

"What brother, I'm not going to see your uncle? No, no, he's my ......" Xu Qi said this, and she didn't know who Xu Wen should be, so she said: "How to take the name Xu Wen?" It's irresponsible......"

"Uh, it was given by the emperor, and I can't help it......"

"The emperor is really irresponsible...... Hey? Why don't I give him a name? ”

"As you ......"

"Just call, chirp......"

……

After saying these gossips, Xu Qing hurriedly called someone to find a big wooden barrel, brought cool well water, washed it well, and changed into clean clothes. Then, gather the generals and hand over the prisoners and booty to Broken Hongchen. If you count your own army, there are only two thousand and one hundred people to fight. Among the trophies, there were more than twenty horses, as well as many mules and donkeys, which Xu Qing kept for himself. Horses can conjure dozens of cavalry, and mules can transport wounded soldiers to that ship on the coast.

After doing this, Xu Qing patted his head, by the way, why don't you take advantage of it?

So they discussed with Broken Hongchen, and the two hit it off, the two armies were united, and more than 2,000 people were reorganized and captured, and a total of 6,000 people opened their sharp teeth to the remaining three small countries.

Those ordinary soldiers were even coaxed into joining the army, and it had nothing to do with them where they fought. Moreover, after the division of the Bohai Sea, the lives of the people of Liaodong were extremely difficult, and they naturally thought about returning to the Bohai period. Breaking Hongchen's righteous words continued, and immediately said that these captives were moved. Duan Hongchen left a sentence, those who are willing to recover their homeland with me will join the army, if they are unwilling, as long as you lay down your arms, then you can restore your freedom, and if you are an enemy of him, you will kill him.

So more than 2,000 people took refuge in Duan Hongchen, and hundreds of people chose to leave.

At this time, there were already 4,000 people in Duan Hongchen's hands, plus Xu Qing's 2,000 people, that is, 6,000, this time, it was even stronger than the previous alliance of the three small countries.

The three small countries have no army, and with the dark river sent by Xu Qing as an internal response, Broken Hongchen is almost invincible.

On the first day, the Buyeo Kingdom was captured, the king of the Buyeo Kingdom was beheaded, and only a few dozen people escaped from the "clutches" of the broken red dust.

On the fourth day, the Longquan Kingdom was captured, and the king committed suicide, and before committing suicide, all the people in the harem were disposed of by him.

Longquan is the old capital of Bohai State, there is a relatively large city, but the old is not repaired, after experiencing the military disaster, it looks even more dilapidated.

On the fifth day, Duan Hongchen officially proclaimed himself king in Longquan Mansion, and designed Longquan as Beijing.

On the eighth day, the last small country, Changling, took the initiative to present the head of the city. voluntarily surrendered, there was still the hatred of killing his father, the hatred of destroying the country, the monarch's family was killed, and the rest of the collateral was punished with hard labor.

On the ninth day, the entire territory of the Bohai Kingdom was recovered. Although the area is not as good as the Bohai State in its heyday, it already has the foundation for the establishment of the country.

Gather the old people of the Bohai Kingdom and re-establish the city in the capital of the old country - Longquan Mansion. The rest of the people who were unwilling to move also gathered together and became the three prefectures of Changling, Theorem, and Nanhai. The South China Sea refers to the area of the Liaodong Peninsula near the south.

After recovering the country and claiming the throne, Duan Hongchen appointed all talents in the territory, whether they were Han or Yanta. It is also the same as the Tang Dynasty, there are six departments in the central government, and there are county orders in the localities, but because the country is small, there are no three provinces.

After a little statistics, it was found that the Bohai Sea has four large Cangzhou, but it is only slightly more populous than Cangzhou. This is due to the cold climate and the lack of production. In addition, the Bohai country's own fertility population is very small, more than half of it has to move in from outside, in recent years, the Central Plains has gradually flattened, but the Bohai Sea is chaotic, resulting in fewer migrants, so the population of the Bohai country is so withered. If in normal times, there are still more than two Cangzhou people in Bohai State.

Xu Qing did not show up at the court of the Bohai Kingdom, and the army was temporarily placed in the hands of Duan Hongchen.

After the restoration of the country and the king, there are still a lot of things to do to break the red dust, first of all, the capital is dilapidated and needs to be repaired on a large scale. Instead, we must always be vigilant against attacks by the Xi people in the north and the Goguryeo people in the east.

Of course, the reinforcements from Goguryeo from afar have been wiped out by Xu Qing, don't worry, but you can't prevent the Goguryeo wolf from raising troops to come again.

Opportunities are given to those who are prepared, and crises bypass those who are prepared.

Fortunately, Broken Hongchen made a lot of preparations to defend against the enemy in advance, and as soon as the Bohai Kingdom had not yet gained a firm foothold, it was facing a challenge, and three thousand Xi cavalry came!
