In the garden, Liu Chengfeng looked at Liu Xuanyuan incredulously, not believing what he said.

From his correspondence with the southern gate lords, he learned that the matter of cutting down Yan was huge, and the southern princes sent hundreds of thousands of troops.

On the eastern front, Chen attacked again, and the Shu army on the western front also did not stop.

The coalition forces are attacked on three fronts, and Dayan is in an unprecedented crisis.

According to his guess, this war will last for at least a year before the two sides will decide the winner, and most of the losers will be Yan Guo.

It is precisely because it is believed that the war against Yan took a long time, pinned down the main army of Dayan, seriously consumed Dayan's military and financial resources, and even the southern territory was divided by the princes.

As a result, within Dayan, the people in various places continued to revolt, which made the Yan Kingdom, where the northern giant existed, quickly fall apart.

At the end of the war, the court gave him a recuperation and recuperation, and he was definitely unable to advance eastward.

This period of war was a golden opportunity for their father and son to recruit troops, expand the army, and stabilize the people.

The defeat of the Yan army will hit the morale of the Great Yan hard, and the prestige of the Yan Emperor will fall to the bottom, and in the city of Jinyang, the Yan cavalry will mutiny, and the people will gradually disappear.

Moreover, half a month ago, the patriarch of the Qian clan of the Yue Kingdom wrote a letter and confidently claimed that the coalition army had successfully defeated the Dayan Legion in Yuecheng.

In half a month, how could it happen that Emperor Yan personally went east to fight against him, could it be that the armies of the southern princes were all a group of fat sheep?

Liu Chengfeng's aged body suddenly tightened, snatched the letter sent by Liu Xuanyuan, glanced at ten lines, and quickly browsed.

After many times, after confirming the content of the letter, cold sweat was on his forehead, and he couldn't help but ask Liu Xuanyuan: "Xuanyuan, what are you going to do?" ”

Lin Feng led the army to come violently, according to the Yan cavalry in Jinyang City, he couldn't hold it at all, according to Liu Chengfeng's plan, he must quickly promote the children of the Yandong family, and unite the family to fight against Lin Feng, otherwise, the members of the Liu family will soon become prisoners.

Liu Xuanyuan shook his head slightly, took a long breath, kept his thoughts clear, and said: "A few days ago, we received the news that Emperor Yan had inflicted heavy losses on the Southern Army and led the victorious army back to Beijing, but in the letter sent back by the frontline spies today, Emperor Yan only led 100,000 ironclad infantry to the east, and the child was puzzled. ”

"Why don't you understand?" Liu Chengfeng crumpled the letter in his hand and threw it on the ground, showing a bit of fierceness in his vicissitudes of life.

Liu Xuanyuan walked slowly forward and said: "The five southern countries have a lot of strength, and there are even more troops sent out, and there is a famous general Han Zhitong of Great Chu, according to common sense, it will definitely not be defeated in just three months." But Emperor Yan never did anything uncertain in the military, this time, he hurriedly led an army of 100,000 to conquer, which did not match his marching and combat style, so the child was very puzzled. ”

This is also something that Liu Chengfeng wonders, the northern expedition of the southern army will definitely not end so soon, but Emperor Yan led the army to come with murderous spirit, which is indeed boring.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Chengfeng asked: "Is it possible that the main force of the Yan army is fighting against the coalition forces in the south, and Emperor Yan personally leads the troops to the east, don't forget, he is very adventurous militarily!" ”

The Liu father and son are both people who know Lin Feng's character very well, and at present, Lin Feng led the army to Jinyang City, threatening their life and death, so he had to guard against it and treat it closely.

For Lin Feng, Liu Xuanyuan has devoted himself to studying the methods of fighting him on the battlefield since the moment he decided to rebel, and this person's military talent is not weaker than his ability to govern the country.

He didn't need anyone to remind him, and he didn't dare to despise the other party. Avoid creating a situation where you lose all the games if you are not careful.

"The child will immediately go to the army to ensure that Jinyang City is foolproof, and the matter of the assistance of the joint gate valve family still requires a lot of work from the father."

He is talented in military affairs, there is no doubt about this, but his political talent, from his lack of vision, can not withstand the temptation of the family to rebel against the Yan State, and the army stationed in Jinyang City, the change of Yan cavalry, and the resistance of the people of Yandong to him, all prove that he has no political talent at all.

Therefore, in political matters, in the war, I need my father's assistance for the time being.

At this time, Liu Chengfeng urged: "Quickly reorganize the troops, hold Jinyang City, block the Yan cavalry, I will immediately get in touch with the Southern Gate Valve Family, determine the victory or defeat of the Southern Army, and strive for their quick support." ”

Hearing the sound, Liu Xuanyuan turned around and left quickly.

He also knew in his heart that this time he was in a panic, if Lin Feng ventured eastward, with only 100,000 ironclad infantry under his command, he would have an advantage in the confrontation, and maybe he might even capture the other party alive.

However, if the army of the southern princes was really annihilated by Yan Cai's lightning speed, he would not face 100,000 infantry in this battle.

The situation deteriorated, like a boulder on the edge of a mountain cliff, and any wind and grass would cause the boulder to roll down and hit the ground hard.

Looking at Liu Xuanyuan's back, Liu Chengfeng clenched his fists, and his arms like black bark of cypress trees, his green tendons skyrocketed.

As the patriarch of the Liu family, he is desperate for the interests of the family, and if the situation is dangerous, he must ensure the interests of the Liu family, even if the means are despicable.

In Jinyang City, Liu Xuanyuan personally organized his troops and ordered martial law in the whole city, prohibiting anyone from leaving the city.

And quickly mixed the children of the family and the guards they brought with Yan Qi to form a new team to ensure that Yan Qi would not mutiny.

At present, it seems that the only way to defend Jinyang City with the whole army, waiting for the support of the Yandong family and the southern gate valve, may be able to avoid this crisis.

However, the closure of the city gate, this move has caused many merchants to be dissatisfied, especially the chaebol dissatisfaction, Jinyang City is an important city in the north, the business is prosperous, directly close the city gate, the merchant goods backlog, serious losses.

In addition, the people in the city were not satisfied, they seemed to smell something from the sudden blockade of the city, and many people secretly discussed it privately, thinking that Wang Shi was advancing eastward and might have arrived in Jinyang City, otherwise, Liu Xuanyuan would not have fought the trapped beast.

Lin Feng, who passed through Longlin County, led the army, and he was not aware of the changes in Jinyang City.

However, the closer they got to Jinyang City, the higher the cheers of the people, and many people heard that Wang Shi had arrived, and they complained to Lin Feng one after another.

The Liu father and son rebelled in Jinyang City, and after gaining the support of the family, they abolished many of the laws and regulations against the family in the Yan Kingdom, making many previously restrained families quickly behave like tigers and wolves.

Supporting the Liu rebellion, the family spent a lot of money and food, so they had to recover this wealth from the people.

In many places, there was a situation of raising grain prices and forcibly collecting taxes, which made Yandong, which had just established a new order and the economy recovered rapidly, become a hell on earth in those years.

Hearing the people's complaints, Lin Feng knew that Liu Xuanyuan was self-reliant in Yandong, which was not a good thing.

I have long heard that Liu Xuanyuan is standing behind the family's interest groups, but unexpectedly, he is so arrogant and ignorant of the interests of the people.

However, he ordered Zhao Hongru to record the rebellious family, and prepare to wait for the resolution of the Yandong crisis and eliminate the scourge of Liu Xuanyuan, and then turn the horse's head and concentrate on eliminating the family gate valve that supported Liu Xuanyuan and squeezed the interests of the people.

The army did not stop, non-stop, starry night, five days later, arrived at the east gate of Jinyang City, set up camp, and reconnoitred the enemy.

What he saw and heard along the way, Lin Feng knew that in the land of Yandong, many people, Bing Yong supported Yan Guo, not to mention, the Liu family and his son represented the interests of the family, ignored the people, and were unpopular in Yandong.

Wherever the army passed, the people welcomed them and suggested that they would fight against the rebellion and kill the families who had done evil.

Therefore, initially, he did not plan to storm Jinyang City and consume the strength of the Yan army.

The army was stationed, and spies were sent to shout around Jinyang City, spread news, and wait and see what happened.

On the wall of Jinyang City, the soldiers defending the city witnessed the arrival of the main force of Yan Cai, some panicked, and some rejoiced.

When the king arrived, many Yan Qi were no longer leaderless.

On the contrary, the guards led by the children of the family became worried and panicked.

The strength of the Yan army spread throughout the north. Emperor Yan personally led a large army to Jinyang City, and it is estimated that there will be a fierce battle, and it is unknown whether to defend it to the death.

But on the day of the destruction of the city, their deeds of fighting for the tiger are exposed, and they will inevitably be punished by criminal law, and they may even be killed at the entrance of the vegetable market.

In the city, Liu Xuanyuan learned that Lin Feng led the army to arrive, and it was night, so he quietly climbed the city wall to investigate the military situation and pacify the army.

Seeing that there were indeed only 100,000 infantry in the large camp outside the city, his tense mood couldn't help but relax a little.

The next day, however, he learned that the situation was not improving, but, on the contrary, worsening.

I don't know who passed the news of Wang Shi's arrival at the east gate of Jinyang City, and after one night, the people in Jinyang City were impetuous, and many people took to the streets, asking to open the city gate and welcome Wang Shi into the city.

What's more, they directly attacked the family's residence, rotten eggs, rotten vegetable leaves, stones, etc., destroyed the family's residence, and took the opportunity to rob the granary and open the warehouse to release grain.

For a time, the patriarchs of the family in the city entered the palace one after another, asking Liu Xuanyuan to suppress the mob and quell the trouble.

Liu Xuanyuan politely refused, only agreed, and quickly restored the security of Jinyang City to ensure the interests of the family.

At this moment, Liu Xuanyuan did not dare to offend the family, nor did he dare to provoke the people, let alone forcibly send troops.

After all, when the king is outside, eyeing the people and suppressing them, it will definitely cause a large-scale revolt among the people, and the chaos will not be suppressed, but will provoke greater trouble.

However, after staying overnight, the army outside the city shouted to the city, demanding that the city gate be opened, and the whole army continued to march eastward, heading to Yandong to resist the Xuanjia soldiers.

Liu Xuanyuan personally climbed the city wall to check the Yan army's moves, Lin Feng was playing tricks, it seemed that he was going to drive him to a dead end, Wang Shi was outside, he must not take the initiative to open the city gate, otherwise, he would definitely be captured alive.

The people didn't care about it, they only knew that Wang Shi had arrived, and wanted to go to Yandong to block the Xuanjia soldiers, recover the lost territory, and refuse to open the city gate, Liu Xuanyuan was a rebellion, and everyone was punished.

For several days in a row, the people and a small number of Yan cavalry became more and more dissatisfied with Liu Xuanyuan, and there was a situation in the city where the people stormed the city gate and fought with the family guards.

At the time of the launch of the thousand troops, Liu Chengfeng attracted Xuanjia soldiers from the Yandong region and stationed them outside the west gate of Jinyang City, intending to use the power of the Xuanjia soldiers to deter the Yanqi in the city.

More importantly, Liu Chengfeng thought that Lin Feng only led 100,000 ironclad infantry, and if he had a chance to capture the other party alive, he would completely rewrite the situation in the north.
