[It's a headache to write about the situation, and I can't help but write, so I'll take it in a few sentences in the future]

Perhaps because of the capture of Hengzhou, Cheng Ying became a little arrogant, thinking that the 80,000 Hengzhou Guangming Army and the 90,000 Hezhou Guangming Army with a total of 170,000 troops would definitely be able to defeat the Hezhou family alliance army and finally take Hezhou into the bag.

On April 17, Cheng Ying personally led the 170,000 Guangming Army to launch a counteroffensive against the family alliance in the north, wanting to fight Ding Hezhou, but he did not expect that the three major families of Hezhou, Baixia Mengshi, Tangqu Li, and Chenggao Hu were also waiting for the counterattack of the Guangming Army.

Cheng Ying knew that the three families of Mengli and Hu were all moving troops to the front line, and thought that the total strength of the family alliance was only 150,000 at most, which was equivalent to the strength of the Hezhou Guangming Army before it entered Hengzhou, and now the total strength of the family alliance has reached 200,000, which is already the limit of the three families of Mengli and Hu.

In addition to the 200,000 army, there are also twenty-five innate grandmasters in the family alliance, although most of these twenty-five innate grandmasters were promoted to innate after the Bright Sect uprising, and their strength is only in the first or second order of the innate family, but the enemy opposite the family alliance army only has seven innate grandmasters, even if the lowest realm of these seven innate grandmasters is the fourth order of the innate realm, but the difference in the number of innate grandmasters between the two sides is too big, and the combination of three innate first-order grandmasters is enough to resist a first-order and fifth-order grandmaster.

The family alliance army relies on twenty-five innate grandmasters, plus more than 1,200 middle-level and high-level martial artists to form a martial arts force, which is a sharp knife for the family alliance army.

When the family alliance army and the bright saber soldiers came into contact, the warrior troops suddenly rushed into the bright army column, and before Cheng Ying could respond, the bright army column was torn out by the warrior troops, and the large army of the family alliance army rushed forward closely behind the warrior troops.

The family alliance army is unstoppable, the 170,000 Guangming army was directly torn into two parts, one left and one right, Cheng Ying's right is fine, the light army formation on the left has been completely messed up, the root can not resist the attack of the family alliance, and countless bright soldiers have fallen every breath.

The situation was very unfavorable to the Guangming Army, Cheng Ying could only abandon the Guangming Army on the left, and ordered the Guangming Army on the right to move to the southeast and fight and retreat, and finally retreated to the south of Hezhou The Guangming Army was less than 70,000 people, half of whom were wounded, and this was not over.

After the family alliance army eliminated the bright army that Cheng Ying gave up, they pursued the bright army led by Cheng Ying, and the 160,000 family alliance army chased to the south of Hezhou, and Cheng Ying, who knew that he could not resist, retreated east to Hengzhou with 70,000 light army, followed by the family alliance army.

In the following more than a month, the Guangming Army led by Cheng Ying still continued to retreat, not fighting with the Hezhou Family Alliance, and finally Cheng Ying led the Guangming Army to retreat to the north of Hengzhou, and the Guangming Army in Cheng Ying's hands recovered to 120,000 people, and the chasing Family Alliance Army still had 150,000 people.

You chased me and fled for more than a month, and the Guangming Army armed by faith could still hold on, but the family alliance army chasing after was already exhausted, taking advantage of this opportunity, Cheng Ying directly took the 120,000 Guangming Army to kill a horse pistol, and surrounded the 30,000 forward troops of the family alliance.

Seeing that the 30,000 vanguard army was about to be wiped out by the Guangming Army, the warrior troops of the family alliance finally arrived, directly broke through the encirclement of the Guangming Army, rescued more than 10,000 vanguard troops, and the Guangming Army's own losses reached more than 15,000 people.

In the north of Hengzhou near Huizhou Didao County, 115,000 slightly more powerful Guangming Army and 130,000 tired Hezhou family coalition army confrontation, although the family coalition army is exhausted, but there are warrior troops, the opposing sides can not help anyone, if the confrontation continues, and wait for the family alliance army to recover strength, that is the end of the Guangming Army, Cheng Ying has already led the Guangming Army to retreat to Huizhou, Cheng Ying led more than 100,000 Guangming Army, plus Huizhou Guangming Army, Cheng Ying has a lot of confidence to occupy the entire Huizhou.

At this moment, the 20,000 horses of Huizhou Chengde Su (surname) quietly stepped into the land of Didao County, Hengzhou, and the 20,000 horses of the Su family were just ordinary troops in Su's own army, but they could be called elite if they were placed in the Guangming Army or other family alliances, which was the fierce and martial arts of Huizhou people.

The Su clan was also afraid that the Guangming Army in Hengzhou would go north, so they secretly dispatched 20,000 horses to the south, wanting to solve this trouble with the Hezhou family alliance.

The 20,000 horses of the Su clan who entered Didao County quickly launched a sneak attack on the Guangming Army from the back, and the Guangming Army was unable to react and suffered heavy damage.

The Su family and the Hezhou family are flanked on both sides, and the fate of the Aoki Hall of the Bright Sect that spans Hezhou and Hengzhou is already doomed.

……

In the blink of an eye, summer has come to an end and autumn has arrived.

Autumn is the time of harvest, and farmers will plough their fields in the spring, expecting a good harvest of grain in this autumn, but there are not many farmers who can calmly hope for a good harvest.

The eleven states of the Dali Empire, Linzhou, Suzhou, Xinzhou, Tongzhou, Huizhou, Hezhou, and Hengzhou, were disturbed by the war, and it was impossible for farmers to farm quietly and wait for the harvest.

The families that were at a disadvantage in the battle against the Bright Army would frantically recruit soldiers and even capture the strong men, and the young and strong people were all captured, and only women, children and the elderly could only farm.

They hope that their loved ones will return safely, that the fighting will not spread here, and that there will be a good harvest in the autumn.

It's just that it often backfires, relatives die on the battlefield, the war spreads here, destroying everything, not to mention the harvest in autumn, even farming is very difficult, and the season of cultivation is missed in vain.

Xing, the people suffer; Death, the people suffer.

Fortunately, people are still alive, and under normal circumstances, the family alliance and the official army will not casually attack the common people who have been ruled by the Bright Sect, unless those ordinary people themselves take the initiative to stand up and say that they oppose the rule of the family.

Only Tongzhou is an exception, Tongzhou has been run by the Guangming Sect for a long time, where the common people all support the Guangming Sect, after the Laizhou family coalition army and Guo Wei's counterinsurgency army entered Tongzhou, they encountered a large number of ordinary people resisting, and those who dared to resist would be arrested as coolies if the heavy ones killed the light ones.

The situation in the four prefectures of Zezhou, Yuanzhou, Laizhou, and Qinzhou is relatively good, and the war in these four prefectures has ended before the spring ploughing, and the common people can cultivate their fields with peace of mind and do not need to be disturbed by the war.

However, due to the impact of the war, the youth and strength in these four areas have also decreased sharply, and Zezhou is the most serious state, and the main force of farming has become peasant women, with children and the elderly assisting.

Although some of their relatives died in the war, the joy of the harvest blew away some of the pain of the death of their loved ones, and the children are still there, and they want to raise their children to adulthood, which is the motivation for them to live.
