The Youzhou Revolution upset the balance of Hebei, and Tian Bu seized the opportunity to return to his homeland. Li Mao didn't take the slightest action about this, but after the matter was completed, he asked Tian Bu to be the envoy of Wei Bojie and let him lead the two towns at the same time.

Li Quanzhong and Han Gongwu glimpsed Li Mao's helplessness and weakness according to this, since the number one enemy is trapped in Jingxi and has no time to look east, what are you waiting for, the end of the Liu family's father and son has come, and they have to die.

The two sent an envoy to inform Shi Xiancheng, and agreed that after defeating the Liu family's father and son, they would cut off the two places of Zhaozhou and Xingzhou to Shi Xiancheng to "rest the horse". Shi Xiancheng stole chickens instead of eating rice, and tried to defeat the Chen and Sun families, but lost Weizhou, and he really regretted it in his heart, and he inevitably became a lost dog, and he couldn't take care of it anymore, so he immediately agreed to Li Quanzhong and Han Gongwu's conditions.

The three families were sandwiched, attacked and attacked, and the father and son of the Liu family were quickly defeated, first losing Zezhou and then being trapped in Luzhou. Liu Wu was defeated in successive battles, supervised the battle at the head of the city, and was accidentally pierced through the cheek by a stray arrow, and the military doctor was incompetent and mishandled, causing the wound to festering and suppurating. Liu Wushui couldn't enter the rice, the pain was unbearable, he cried day and night, and before long, he committed suicide with hatred.

Seeing that the situation was overwhelming, Liu Congji led the defeated army to retreat to Qinzhou, Hedong, and took refuge in Li Mao.

Li Quanzhong wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue and go deep into Hedong, but when he heard that Shi Xianzhong had a change in Luoyang, and saw that Han Gongwu refused to offend Li Mao, he was silent about going north to capture Hedong, and was in a dilemma for a while.

At this time, Qin Mo arrived in Luzhou and persuaded Li Quanzhong and Han Gongwu to accept it when they saw it, and not to kill them all. Li Quanzhong put forward a condition, asking Li Mao to move Liu Congji out of Hedong, so that he would not take revenge and counterattack Zhaoyi in the future.

Hedong was empty, Liu Congji was ambitious, Li Mao naturally would not place him in Hedong, Qin Mo agreed without hesitation, and moved Liu Congji to Ziqing five days later.

Li Quanzhong saw that the opportunity had been lost and the rear was unstable, so he gave up the plan to go north and attack Hedong.

Qin Mo, Li Quanzhong, and Han Gongwu agreed that Li Quanzhong would occupy Heyang and Luzhou, Han Gongwu would occupy Zezhou, and Shi Xiancheng would occupy Xingzhou, Zhaozhou, and Cizhou. This proposal was beneficial to both sides, with Chenzhou being close to Xuanwu and far from Zhengzhou, Li Quanzhong having a hard time garrisoning Chenzhou, and Han Gongwu being able to connect Xuzhou with his headquarters. After Li Quanzhong exchanged Chenzhou for Zezhou, he could connect Luzhou with the newly acquired Heyang Town, and he could unload the burden of Chenzhou.

The two hit it off, and asked Qin Mo to be the middleman to supervise the withdrawal of the two families at the same time, and no one was allowed to cheat.

As for Shi Xiancheng, although he was allowed three states, but in fact only Xingzhou was under his control, and Zhaozhou was occupied by Tian Bu.

Li Quanzhong and Han Gongwu both knew in their hearts that although Li Mao was now trapped in Jingxi and couldn't extricate himself, the chaos on the grassland could not last forever, the Sky Wolf King fell, and the Sea Wolf King and the Mountain Wolf King came out, he would soon be able to pull out, with the territory and strength he occupied, he was still the strongest domain in the world, and now was not the time to openly turn his face with him, cut off Cao Yun, and could only force him to defeat Jingxi and lose Guanzhong.

Guanzhong fell to Hu Chen, and it may not be beneficial to the princes of Guandong, not to mention that even if Li Mao lost Guanzhong, he still occupied Hedong and Youzhou, and the soldiers and horses were still strong, and without the burden of Guanzhong, he could concentrate his troops and horses from Hebei to the south.

Tian Bu took advantage of the situation to occupy Wei Bo, whether he made his own assertions, or obtained Li Mao's tacit approval, or even a double reed that Li Mao co-starred with him: he took advantage of the situation to occupy Wei Bo, but he did not have to tear up the Luoyang Alliance, which caused a backlash from the Kwantung princes.

The jury is still out.

In case Tian Bu is playing a double reed with Li Mao and occupying Weizhou without offending the Kwantung princes, then in the future, Li Mao will go south from Wei Bo to peep into the Central Plains, and the road will be smooth, who can stop it?

Li Mao is now a thin flat shoulder carrying two baskets of heavy burdens, Youzhou and Liaodong are one basket, Guanzhong and Jingxi are one basket, and Hedong is the thin flat burden, he must now do his best to maintain the balance of this burden, and if he makes a slight mistake, he will flash his waist and fall the guy.

Keep the Cao Yun unimpeded, help Li Mao continue his life, help him carry the grassland barbarians, help him occupy more territory, and it is best to take Longxi back, in this way, there are Tubo and grassland departments outside, and there are dozens of state armies to be stationed inside, the burden is heavy, he is only busy balancing the left and right, how can he still have the strength to win the Central Plains?

At that time, if he wanted to be the emperor, he would do it, and everyone worked hard to divide the Li family's world, you are the emperor, I am the king, our well water does not violate the river water, we are the supreme, and share happiness, isn't it beautiful?

On the contrary, he smashed his burden and made him lose Jingxi and Guanzhong, which seemed to make him disgraced, but in fact helped him retreat, who among the princes of the Central Plains has the strength to compete with Youzhou?

Out of this selfishness, Li Quanzhong and Han Gongwu promised Qin Mo to do his best to maintain the smooth flow of Cao Yun, ensure the food and salary of the garrison in western Beijing, and help Li Taishi to clear Hu Chen, recover Longxi, expand the territory, regain the Western Regions, build a thousand years of meritorious deeds, and leave a good name for all generations.

He Jintao of the Tianping Army and Wang Zhixing of the Wuning Army also saw this, and the two of them assured Qin Mo together that they would ensure the smooth flow of Cao Yun and never let Li Taishi have any worries in western Beijing.

Qin Mo's merits on this trip are complete, as for the rest, he can't take care of it, Li Mao said that the Kanto region is vast and promising. Do whatever you like, just don't stab the sky and just Amitabha.

Li Mao was very moved when he learned that the princes of Kwantung knew the general righteousness, and immediately transferred troops from Heluo and Guanzhong, preparing to fight with the new overlord of the steppe, Are Khan, if he could defeat him, it would be the best, if not, he should also let him know that the south of Yinshan is not a grassland, and there are risks in going south, and expansion must be cautious.

After careful consideration, Li Mao transferred Lu Zhen to guard the first line of Tongguan, blocked the road for the Guandong princes to enter Guanzhong in the west, and formed the Yang Qi Corps with Fengzhou as the base point, the Yan Qin Corps with Xiazhou as the base point, the Zhu Xie Zhiyi Corps with Lingzhou as the base point, and the Li Xianyi Corps with Fengxiang as the base point. Three mobile corps were also formed, with Shi Xiong, Qian Duoduo, and Zhu Xie Chixin as commanders. Prepare to take on the invading enemy head-on.

In November of the first year of Huichang, Li Cong died of illness due to the Yanhai Military Festival, Wang Zhixing and He Jintao of the Wuning Military Festival and He Jintao of the Tianping Military Festival thought that there was an opportunity, and at the same time set their eyes on Yanhai Town.

Yanhai Town's successive envoys since Li Yu were appointed by the imperial court, and they were quite obedient to the imperial court, but their strength was getting worse, and several envoys were not as good as a crab. Li Cong was cowardly and incompetent, and for three years he made Yanhai a miasma, and even inspired a mutiny before he died.

Li Cong was frightened in his heart, and he bewildered and begged Ziqing Xue Rong and Wuning Army Wang Zhixing for help.

He Jintao has coveted the four states of Yanhai for a long time, because there is Xue Rong in the east, Xuanwu in the west, and Wang Zhixing in the south. Li Quanzhong and Han Gongwu were handing over Chen and Lu Erzhou, their big eyes were staring at each other, and their nervous palms were sweating, and they had no time to care about anything else. Xue Rong is pedantic and not to be worried, only Wang Zhixing is not easy to deal with, but there are four states in Yanhai, everyone takes what they need, half of it, half of it, and there is no need to make it incompatible.

After making up his mind, He Jintao informed Xuzhou that he would send troops to help Yanzhou quell the rebellion at the invitation of Li Cong, and then send troops to Yanzhou. Wang Zhixing sent an envoy to inform the Yanzhou guards to beware of He Jintao, and on the other hand, he first occupied Yizhou and then went to Haizhou. The two states were in the bag, and He Jintao had not yet gnawed Yanzhou, so he looked back and fought with He Jintao for Yanzhou, and then went out of the division to fight for Mizhou with Xue Rong.

Xue Rong's fight for Mizhou is fake, a false move, all the main forces will be transferred eastward, and when He Jintao's main force goes out of the city to compete with Wang Zhixing for Yanzhou, he ordered Hao Jun to take Yunzhou directly.

Hao Jun didn't want to obey the order, although his Lu Long army was stationed in Ziqing, but only Li Mao was the leader, and Xue Rong couldn't mobilize him at all. However, the opportunity is rare at the moment, instead of trying to fight Mizhou, it is better to take Yunzhou directly.

Yunzhou was originally the capital of the twelve states of Ziqing, with a large city, many people, and rich wealth, and it was better to seize one place in Yunzhou than to seize the other ten states. Hao Jun rarely fought after the garrison of Ziqing, and there were not many opportunities to make meritorious contributions. Besides, it is now on the order of Xue Rong, although there is a mistake, and Xue Rong is carrying it, Li Mao can't blame him, and his mind has been decided to attack Yunzhou on a large scale.

Among the various armies in Ziqing, He Jintao was most afraid of Hao Jun, who was shocked when he heard the news and hurriedly returned to Yunzhou to save him.
