Li Yan was able to work for himself, which made Gao Yihuan happy.

Gao Yihuan took the opportunity of the Nanjing Xingshun case to attract many Ming Dynasty officials to vote, but many Ming Dynasty officials also made him a little uneasy.

With Li Yan's joining, there can be a balance among the civil officials, so that he will not be deceived by the people below.

Gao Yihuan excitedly took Li Yan's hand and talked for a while, saying that he wanted to talk to Li Yan on his knees, and fell asleep before letting go of his hand.

After Li Yan's matter was resolved, Gao Yihuan immediately looked at Bai Wang again, and said with sincerity on his face, "General Bai, how about staying with me?" ”

When Bai Wang heard this, his face was a little embarrassed and hesitant.

Bai Wang is not as cheerful as Li Yan, Li Yan belongs to the administrative type of civil official, and there is no threat to Gao Yihuan, but he is different, he is the one who leads the troops, and he is at the same level as Gao Yihuan, he used to be Gao Yihuan's boss, counting Wang Deren and Zhao Mingchong, they are also his old subordinates.

Let him take refuge in Gao Yihuan, and his position cannot be lower than Wang Deren, but if the position is too high, Gao Yihuan will obviously not rest assured, there will definitely be those subordinates, whether to listen to him, the old boss, or listen to Gao someone's questions.

Bai Wang was suspicious, he was worried that if he joined Gao Yihuan's command, he would be suppressed, and he would be marginalized and marginalized, but when he saw Gao Yihuan extending an olive branch to him, he was still a little moved in his heart.

Gao Yihuan rescued him twice, and now he can accept him again, which shows that he is an open-minded hero, maybe he is too worried.

In the face of this situation, killing its leader and annexing his subordinates is the right posture, and if Li Zicheng is a man, he will definitely do it.

Gao Yihuan really needed a lot of courage to keep him to do things, and it also made Bai Wang a little ashamed.

Yihuan saved me twice, he was the festival of southern Henan, Wang Deren was naturally controlled by him, as for Zhao Mingchong, I had no time to take care of it, and finally Yihuan begged to save this team.

For a while, Bai Wang felt that he was a bit of a villain's belly, plus he broke through from Luoyang, except for three thousand mouths, there was nothing else, and if he didn't take refuge in Gao Yihuan, it would be a problem for him to even eat.

Bai Wang pondered for a moment, lowered his head, and then clenched his fists and said, "I want to listen to Wei Hou's arrangement!" ”

"Haha~" Gao Yihuan laughed heartily and grabbed Bai Wang, "With the help of General Bai, Gao Mouru has one more arm." General Bai will enter the city to rest for a few days to wash away the dust, and the commander just has something for General Bai to do! ”

Now that it has been decided, Bai Wang also entered the role, hugged his fists and asked, "If it's urgent, Wei Hou can give orders!" ”

"No hurry, no hurry!" Gao Yihuan smiled and waved his hand, and wrote lightly: "I just want General Bai to go to Guanzhong, inform Guanzhong that Luoyang has fallen, and let Guanzhong prepare to defend against the enemy!" ”

After Bai Wang heard this, his expression was stunned.

Liu Bei got the land of Shu and wanted to send Liu Zhang to Jingzhou.

Gao Yihuan was a little entangled in how to place Bai Wang, and he definitely couldn't give him a high position, so he had to separate him first, and it was impossible to reuse him before eliminating his influence.

After the return of the Tiger and Dragoon Battalions, the war in Luoyang can be said to be over.

Although the fiercest battle was not carried out around Luoyang, the center of the war was still Luoyang, so the end of the Luoyang war marked the end of the war.

The Wei army performed very well in this battle, but the Qing army finally occupied the provincial capital of Henan and captured the central capital of the world.

Gao Yihuan's partial victory did not stop the southward expansion of the Qing army, and the Qing army still maintained an enterprising attitude, but it is an indisputable fact that the Qing army's troops were slightly weakened.

At this time, the situation in Henan, Gao Yihuan shrank back to the south of Yuzhou, and the Qing army completed the occupation of eastern and northern Henan.

Ruzhou in the middle of Yuzhou was divided equally between the Wei and Qing armies, but both sides tacitly agreed not to garrison heavy troops here, but as a buffer area.

After Duoduo returned to Luoyang, he counted the men and horses, and the army lost more than 11,000 people before and after, including more than 3,000 people in the Han Army Banner, and two or three hundred people in the Manchurian Eight Banners, which can be said to be a heavy loss.

If you count Liu Zhong's 10,000 people, the loss is even greater.

Such a big loss has already hurt the vitality of the Qing army on the southern route, coupled with the delay in the grain and grass of the Qing court, Duoduo has no ability to start the war again in a short time.

After Duoduo returned to Luoyang, the army entered a state of rest.

At this time, after Gao Yihuan stayed in Xiangcheng for a few days, he also returned to Runing and received a letter from Liu Heizi.

Gao Yihuan immediately learned the reason for Duoduo's quick withdrawal, in addition to his calculations, there was also a channel for the Qing army to transport grain from the south, which was cut off by Liu Heizi and the Ming general Gao Jie.

Although Gao Yihuan wrote a letter to Liu Heizi and asked him to rob grain, Liu Heizi could control the west bank of the canal at most, and the Jin merchants could completely change to the land route, bypassing the area where Liu Heizi was active, and continue to transport grain to the north.

Gao Yihuan thought that Liu Heizi's interception would increase the cost of grain and grass for the Qing army to a certain extent, but he did not expect to basically block the Jin merchants from transporting grain to the north.

After reading the letter, Gao Yihuan learned that on the east bank of the canal, Gao Jie, the general under the command of Gao Mingheng, the governor of the Ming Dynasty, also set his sights on the grain and grass transported by the Jin merchants to the north, and pretended to be a rogue, and robbed along the river.

This made Gao Yihuan pat his head, he didn't expect that there were so many talents in the world.

For a while, Gao Yihuan felt that he had miscalculated, and he should have explained that Liu Heizi pretended to be a Ming army to rob, instead of acting in a low-key manner.

Now Liu Heizi and Gao Jie are in the west of the canal and the other in the east of the canal, and the two reached a tacit understanding after a few fights, and almost became brothers.

The two of them were active in Shandong, so they basically blocked the road of grain transportation for Jin merchants, and if Jin merchants wanted to transport grain, they had to take sea transportation, but sea transportation was not something that could be done well in a month or two.

The end of June was the time when the winter wheat was ripe, and with the collection and transportation, it would be at least July and August for the Dordor to obtain large quantities of grain and grass.

Gao Yihuan fought with Duoduo, which lasted for more than four months, and all kinds of reserves in southern Henan were basically exhausted.

The Qing army was limited by food and grass, and it was unable to fight again in a short period of time, which undoubtedly reassured Gao Yihuan.

After returning to Runing, the statistics of the entire battle of each battalion were also sent to Gao Yihuan's desk, excluding the miners who lost, and the casualties of the Wei army were as high as more than 4,000 after this battle.

Although the casualties were mainly from the new annex camp that blocked Duoduo, it was already a major loss for the small Wei army.

Fortunately, the Qing army suffered even greater losses, not only was Gao Yihuan captured four or five thousand war horses, but also captured more than four thousand green battalion soldiers, which made Gao Yihuan more pleased, and this battle was not too much of a loss.

At this time, after cleaning up the casualties and counting the results, the sweeping work of the entire battle was basically over, but Gao Yihuan did not ease down because of this, because another news about the insufficient food reserves of the Wei army and could only hold out until the beginning of June was reported.
