After staying in Meiji for three months, Liu Yuan packed up his mood and set off from Wangcheng again to embark on a long journey to the south. In addition to Cai Yan and the two ladies of Wannian to accompany him, Liu Yuan took Liu Heng, Liu Heng, and Liu Cheng to the front for the first time, and Liu Yu was able to free himself from the stable of the summer palace in advance.

"Jue'er, the battlefield is treacherous, you need to be careful!" Preparing her outfit for Liu Jue, Lan Yu said in a low voice, with some concern.

Liu Jue still had a slight smell on his body, and chuckled: "Don't worry, mother, follow my father and be in the middle of the army, what is the danger?"

Seeing the palace people who were still busy, Liu Jue pointed to the two maids and said, "Mother, there is no need for these, my son is not here to enjoy it."

Seeing Liu Jue, who was becoming more and more assertive, a trace of relief flashed in Lan Yu's eyes, and after staying in the stable for a while, she had lost a lot of childishness.

On the concubine's side, Liu Heng was a little excited: "Mother, this time I will go south with my father, I will definitely perform well and establish meritorious deeds for my Great Xia!"

"You are still young, what are you talking about, it is the right way to learn from your father, pay attention to safety!" The concubine advised, thought about it and said, "It's too far away, I see you Liu Qiu...... Uncle Wang, say hello to your mother! After so many years, when Concubine Yan mentioned Liu Qiu in front of Liu Heng, her expression was still unnatural.

Growing up slowly, Liu Heng also understood the "complicated" relationship between Liu Yuan, Fei Fei, Liu Qiu and himself, and saw that Fei Yuan's interest was not very high, so he bowed down and responded: "No!"

The same is true on Bian's side, and the mother of the child is worried. Liu Cheng dressed silently and kowtowed to Bian's head a few times: "Mother doesn't have to worry, my son just went out to meet the big man described in the book!"

He didn't let Bian prepare anything for him, so he had two sets of clothes, a waiter with a few books, and nothing else.

Fang crossed the river, and before he arrived in Taiyuan, Liu Yuan received a battle report from Hedong. On top of the king, putting away the battle report, Liu Yuan thought for a while and ordered: "Hurry up and send an order to Hedong and tell Xu Bu Chiyi that the war in Hedong has been fully authorized by him, let him operate according to his own ideas!" ”

"Father! Is there a change in the war on the east side of the river? Liu Heng, who was driving the car, asked curiously.

swept the three brothers around, handed the battle report to the three, and instructed: "Take the three of you with the army this time, see more, hear more, and talk less." The military affairs of Great Xia are becoming more and more burdensome, and you have grown up, and you will have heavy responsibilities in the future. You have to think about contributing to the country and sharing the burden for the orphans, understand? ”

"No!"

"Stay with Lonely, see that you are quite uncomfortable, go down!" After the three of them finished reading the report from Xu Bu Chiyi, Liu Yuan suddenly spoke.

"Erchen doesn't dare!" The third son hurriedly said.

Liu Yuan waved his hand, and the three of them lifted the curtain in turn and got out of the car. His expression was really a little relaxed, and he had to suppress himself all the time when he stayed on Liu Yuan's car, and he really couldn't hold it back.

"King, the three princes are all extraordinary, and you have a successor!" Cai Yan was on Jun's side, looking at the backs of the three brothers, and smiled at Liu Yuan.

"I hope so!" Liu Yuan looked at Cai Yan playfully: "Zhao Ji also gave birth to a little prince alone?" ”

Cai Yan's face flushed slightly when he heard this, his eyes were like water, and he looked at Liu Yuan, as if he was tempted. Wan Nian, who was on Liu Yuan's other side, subconsciously touched his stomach, lowered his head, and did not speak. She wanted a child, but unfortunately her stomach was not angry, and Liu Yuan did not patronize it, but there was no movement.

On the side of Xubu Chiyi, after nearly three months of operation, from the north down, attacking the east of the river, now has the northeast half of the river. As Liu Yuanbuzi, with his back to Xihe, he has been in Yong'an for several years, and Xu Bu Chiyi is not in vain.

In addition to being vigorous and recuperating, he is also actively familiar with Hedong, and it can be said that every mountain and water, city and town in Hedong are in his mind. With the continuous expansion of the power of the Xia Kingdom, the world is in turmoil, and some families in Hedong also have secretly colluded with Subu Chiti.

The previous order of King Liu Yuan was that it basically did not take much time to mobilize, and Xu Bu Chiyi led the Hedong Xia army to the south. Coupled with the beggar army that obeyed orders, the Hedong Xia army had nearly 10,000 foot cavalry troops.

Last year, Zhu Jun raised troops against Dong in Henan, holding high the banner of righteousness against thieves, which made Dong Zhuo furious. In Hedong, after the death of Mrs. Guo, the Baibo army was divided, and it no longer had the same momentum as it did at the beginning, and the threat to Hedong was much smaller. In addition, the Xia army was busy attacking and annexing the state, and the Xia army in the northeast of Hedong was staying honestly, worrying about the future, Dong Zhuo transferred the main force of Hedong Niu Fu to the east, defeated Zhu Jun, and plundered the Guandong, and gained a lot.

Later, Niu Fu was ordered to be stationed in Hongnong Shaanxi County, so when Xu Bu Chiyi went south, the strength of the Dong army in Hedong was not strong, and only the school captains Zhang Ji and Yang Ding led less than 5,000 troops to settle down.

Subu Chiyizhi went south, step by step, steady and steady, from Fenshui to the south, attacking city by city, encountering the Yi and falling, until Jiangyi received a little resistance. Zhang Ji's son Zhang Xiu took the initiative to lead the army to be stationed here, obviously thinking too much, and could not stop the two attacks of the Xia army, so the queen retreated.

Subu Chiti took advantage of the situation to advance southward and approached Anyi, and at this time, Niu Fu, who was a little "sluggish" in front of him, finally led the army north to support.

Dong Chipi, many years ago, Niu Fu was defeated in Baibo, the two armies met, and there were several battles. There are many generals under Niu Fu, such as Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji, Li Meng, etc., and the troops are redundant with Xu Bu Chiyi, and there are many iron cavalry, which firmly contain Xia Cai.

For a while, the Dong army had the upper hand in the battle and suppressed the Xia army, while Xu Bu Chiyi relied on the Hedong Xia army that had been trained for many years, and the response was very calm, and the begging army was fierce, and the two sides actually went back and forth. After more than half a month of fierce fighting, the Xia army began to run out of food, and there was a "lack of support" as if they had discovered this, and Niu Fu ordered to step up the attack.

The turning point also came at this time, when the remnants of Bai Bo, who were active in Hedong, Shangdang, and near Hanoi, suddenly sneaked behind Dong Jun and launched a surprise attack under the leadership of Yang Feng and Li Le. Dong Jun did not notice, and under the attack of the two sides, Niu Fu was defeated and retreated.

The army withdrew in a hurry, and Subu Chiyi took advantage of the situation to pursue, and did not let go for a moment, with the intention of taking Hedong in one fell swoop and invading Hongnong. Niu Fu passed through Anyi without entering, and the enemy army pursuing in the rear brought him great pressure, so he only left Zhang Ji behind, and led people to withdraw straight to the south, giving Xu Bu Chiyi's troops the opportunity to besiege Anyi.

Zhang Ji and Yang Ding worked hard to defend Anyi, and Xu Bu Chiyi tentatively attacked a few times, and in the previous battle with Niu Fu, the losses of the Xia army were not small, and the Bai Bo army was uncontrollable. Consciously Anyi could not fall suddenly, Xu Bu Chiyi decisively led the army to retreat north, and settled in Wenxi. Looking at each other across the water, it brought strong pressure to Anyi, making it difficult for Zhang Ji and Yang Ding, who were guarding the city, to be at ease day and night.

Xu Bu Chiyi reported to Liu Yuan, saying that he intended to slow down the offensive against Hedong, and wanted to stabilize the captured Hedong city before taking action. Secondly, he wanted to completely annex the remaining White Polish army.

Many years ago, after the death of Guo Tai and the split of Baibo, Xu Bu Chiyi had the intention of annexing it for the Xia army. Now that Bai Bo is dying out, its momentum is weak, and if he wants to take Hedong, how can this Bai Bo let it go to Hedong again.

The Bai Bo army is no longer as prosperous as before, but there are still tens of thousands of people, and there are nearly 20,000 people under the leadership of Yang Feng and Li Le. Combat power can not be talked about, once surrendered, it will be a big supplement to the military strength of the Xia army.

Fortunately, Yang Feng is aware of current affairs, and he has been in constant contact with Subu Chiyi over the years, so it is not difficult for him to surrender. It's Li Le, as well as Han Xian, Hu Cai and others, who have to work hard, in a word, life and death.
