With the alternation of forces of all parties, the war situation of the Xia Dynasty has changed again, Xia Yuanwen's western theater has been pocketed by the Zhenguo Gong at the moment, those territories were originally controlled by civil officials, after Yingtian took over, the first thing was to remove the officials of each territory from house arrest, send his henchmen to take over the various territories, and set up garrisons and patrol battalions in each province.

After taking over the Western Theater of Operations, Zhenguo Gong began to calculate the northern theater again, and all independent territories such as Moyu Frontier and Maple Leaf Frontier were attached to Zhenguo Gong, in addition, two of the six territories under Ling Xia's command had been captured, except for Ziyan Frontier and Penglai Frontier, which were also broken by the enemy, fortunately, they were well prepared in advance, so the soldiers and officials defending the city were all safely transferred before the city was broken.

Although the three territories of Yanxiujiang, Hongzejiang, and Cheng'an are still resisting stubbornly, with the joint operation of Zhenguo Gong and the Purple Turban Army, their defensive warfare is becoming more and more difficult, but at this moment, the materials and personnel in the territories have been safely transferred, and hundreds of thousands of war horses and troop carriages are kept in captivity at the exit of the inner city, and there are horsemen who are responsible for guarding every day to ensure the retreat of the soldiers defending the city at any time.

The fate of Yanxiujiang and other territories has been doomed, although they are still resisting the offensive of Wu Lanjiang and the Purple Turban Army, but in the face of the strength advantage of the combined forces of the two sides, Kong Yikong and Pan Futian and others also understand that they will not last long, there is no way, there are too many enemy troops attacking the city outside the city, according to the calculations of Luzhu Weng and others, it will be a year long, and three months, and several territories will be broken by the enemy.

Once several territories fell, the glazed frontier was their last base, fortunately, the terrain of the glazed frontier was dangerous, the location was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the territory was cold all year round, and the territory could not be stationed outside the city for a long time, so it was not afraid of the joint attack of the Zhenguo Gong and the Purple Turban Army, at this moment Gu Xiuyuan had already begun to build fortifications, and Luzhu Weng was busy cultivating grain fields and planting rice.

Although Zhenguo Gong knew that Luzhu Weng and others had retreated to Liulijiang, he didn't look at Liulijiang at all, although Yanxiujiang and other territories had not yet been breached, but he had already regarded the northern theater as his own territory, according to the agreement between him and Xia Yuanji, the Purple Turban Army would withdraw his troops after helping him capture the territory under Ling Xia's command, and at that time, Wu Lanjiang would need to send troops to help Xia Yuanjie attack the southern theater.

In the eyes of Zhen Guogong and Xia Yuanwei, Xia Yuanwen has fled and wandered like a lost dog, although Ling Xia has not completely failed, but several territories under his command have been lost one after another, so Ling Xia's power has existed in name only, and he has become a bare-bones commander. Except for Xia Yuanwen and Ling Xia, the two henchmen, their enemies were only Xia Yuanyou's imperial faction.

As for the Japanese who are entrenched in Bengyuanjiang, because their geographical location belongs to the junction of the Eastern Theater and the Southern Theater, and in the agreement between Xia Yuanwei and Zhenguogong, the Eastern Theater and the Southern Theater are under the jurisdiction of Xia Yuanjie, so Zhenguogong ignores Bengyuanjiang. Xia Yuanwei deliberately ignored Bengyuanjiang, and the imperial court did not have the ability to attack Bengyuanjiang, so that Bengyuanjiang, where the Japanese soldiers and horses were entrenched, was not attacked by any forces.

Just when the situation in the outside world was unpredictable, Ling Xia fell into a difficult choice, the grain and grass in the southern theater could not be supported, at the same time, a corps under Xia Yuanjian quietly approached Xu Zhoujiang, and a corps led by Peng Tiangang was also marching to the southern theater, it seemed that Xia Yuanjian and Zhen Guogong were going to attack the southern theater.

In view of the urgency of the situation, the imperial court ordered Nangong Xiongba to lead all the officials, families, soldiers and horses in the southern theater to return to the imperial capital.
