The next day, Yang Dongfang and others rushed to Tongxin County, but fortunately, Tongxin County did not receive a notice from the Red Poetry Castle, and Tongxin County did not enter the defense mode, but they did not fall in the city, but divided their troops to wait for the rabbit on the road to the city to intercept the people of the Red Poetry Castle.

He himself continued to go south with his people, because sixty kilometers southeast of Red Poetry Fort was Xiama Pass, which was an important stronghold of the White Bandits, and he did not know whether the White Bandits here would also send someone to send a message to the west after the White Bandits in the Red Poetry Fort informed the White Bandits.

So he continued south to Qiying Town, which led to Guyuan in Xiamaguan.

In the afternoon, the sunset had just set, there were only dusk barren mountains in the distance, a gust of wind and sand blew in the northwest, and the five figures in the east of Qiying Town were blurred from far and near, all riding war horses.

"Take it, whoever it is! If you resist, you will kill me. Yang Dongfang calmly gave the order, and the twelve cavalrymen urged their horses to meet them, and they were dressed as typical herdsmen in the northwest, and quickly surrounded and took the two of them.

After a short burst of gunfire, three dead, one wounded and one captured alive, all of them were taken.

After asking, it was really sent out to deliver the letter by the Xiamaguan side, and after answering, the two of them were cleanly and neatly separated, and they didn't want to make the same mistake as Zhongning Hall.

At this time, Yang Dongfang retracted the brief battle report written in the Zhongning Hall, the Red Poetry Fort had been broken, and the military fortress built by the Ming Dynasty was the mainstay, and the nearby small forts were also captured, but the method was a bit bloody, and the bandits inside refused to surrender and were all killed.

Of course, there is a good news in it, that is, the letter of the Chinese Emperor's ** team has not been completely leaked out, and the Hui bandits in Hongshibao are only regarded as the Han army that has sprung up, after all, this is their rear, and the sudden appearance of the Chinese Empire's army is a bit incredible and incomprehensible.

In this way, Yang Dongfang was not even more worried about Ma Hualong's blowing up, let alone the white bandits who got off Maguan, he went back to Shaanxi in the evening, and then took over another 2,000 people in the early morning of the next day.

The same method easily controls and monitors the main road between Tongxin County and Guyuan County, and stifles the east-west connection of all white bandits.

Then rested for half a day, continued to go south after dawn, killed Guyuan Prefecture, brought Huang Yongcheng here, and presided over the military affairs of Zhongwei, Zhongning, Tongxin and other places, because the troops brought here were all from the original 11th Brigade, but as early as the end of the Central Plains War, the 11th Brigade was expanded into the 11th Division.

Of course, in order to have more dreams at night, the plans of the various departments had to be advanced.

The original east-west separation can now be divided into three parts, east and west, or in the original Dingbian, Jingbian, and Yanchi lines, which have moved more than 100 kilometers to the west, and become Zhongning, Guyuan, Pingliang, and Baoji lines.

Then Baoji's Northwest Independent Division was divided into two parts, one advanced to Pingliang and attacked quickly, and then went to Guyuan to join the division, and the other continued to attack Tianshui.

The various units of the New People's Army that received the order immediately attacked on all fronts as required, first of all, the troops of the 1st and 4th Cavalry Brigades of Maozai in Luliang quickly took Suide, because there was no need for heavy logistics troops, and there was Yang Dongfang's coordinate point to be airlifted at any time.

After replenishing the ammunition, they continued to fight towards Jingbian, leaving the rear to the infantry to clean up and guard, and the security regiment followed and swept to the surrounding counties, controlling all the passage paths, like a bucket of cement, and filling holes wherever they were.

Shanxi and Hebei also went out at the same time to attack Datongfu.

On the Shaanxi side, Su Yuanchun and Bao Chao attacked Qingyang Mansion in Gansu from Yongshou and Purification to the north respectively.

The 3rd Cavalry Brigade, the Ma Rong Regiment, the Ma United Regiment, the Zhang Yao Regiment, a main brigade of the Northwest Independent Division, and several security brigade engineer brigades advanced from Longxian to Pingliang and Guyuan.

The two main brigades of the Northwest Independent Division attacked Tianshui with the addition of a 2nd Cavalry Brigade and several Security Brigade Engineer Brigades.

On the Sichuan side, a security brigade went north and south from Longnan and quietly came to the west of Ma Zhanao in Hezhou through the trail.

Four days passed, and Ningxia Mansion was jumping with chickens and dogs, and the news came suddenly, and the news of Zhongning and losing control came back, which really surprised Ma Hualong.

Quickly sent a team of people to reconnoiter Zhongning, and it turned out that there was really an army that occupied this place, and captured the Red Temple Fort, and bloodied the people who resisted, all of them used muskets, and the number was small but all of them were elite.

This made him very puzzled, how could such a force suddenly emerge from the northwest borderland, for the stability of his own territory, and at the same time with a hot musket.

He quickly ran to Lingzhou and attacked Zhongning Hall with 5,000 people, but after an attack, the attacking troops were defeated, and several charges came down, killing and wounding more than 1,000 people, where did they dare to attack.

I had to send someone to talk to him, saying that as long as he obeyed the dispatch of his horse and turned into a dragon, he could allow the existence of this armed force.

However, the letter was never returned, and there was no reply, Ma Hualong waited for a day and felt that something had happened, so he contacted the white bandits in Xiamaguan, preparing to let Bai Yanhu send troops to kill this army together.

As a result, Bai Yanhu's side did not have no news, and the white bandits in Xiemaguan told him that the New People's Army in the east had launched an attack, and the advance speed was extremely fast, Jingbian County had lost control, and it would soon arrive at Dingbian.

"What? The New People's Army pushed all the way from Suide to Jingbian, and the cavalry opened the way. It was a surprise that the war to the northwest would start so quickly. Ma Hualong was deeply worried, once the New People's Army took Dingbian, whether it was a direct attack on him in the north or a Maguan in the south, it would be unfavorable to him.

He guessed that the chances of beating him would be much greater, after all, Ningxia Mansion was stuffed into the south of the Yangtze River, and it was a real piece of fat.

So where is there still the heart to manage the Zhongning Hall, quickly gather the army, and transfer troops from all over the country to hoard in Fucheng and Lingzhou.

After another two days, Ma Hualong, who was in Lingzhou, finally received the exact news that the New People's Army was coming, they took Dingbian and Yanchi, and they really came to their side.

The mountain rain is coming, the war is about to break out, and the entire Ningxia Mansion has become radicalized under his continuous encouragement, preparing for a bloody battle in Lingzhou to defend the base Jinji Fort.

Another day later, the cavalry of the New People's Army broke through Fort Cimi, like a bow and arrow ready to be fired, who came in and was ready to shoot over, which made him nervous, and then a day passed, the New People's Army did not make any moves in Fort Cimi, and it has not been leading without the intention of advancing.

At this moment, he didn't know that Ningxia Fucheng ushered in an army of 6,000, and Liu Songshan's brigade suddenly surrendered under the leadership of Yang Dongfang.

The Hui bandits defending the city did not react quickly, and were quickly routed, most of them were blocked in the barracks, and small troops took refuge in civilian houses.

The 5,000 people in the barracks were quickly killed by artillery fire, and the Hui bandits, who had taken refuge in civilian houses, were either burned to death or rushed out to be killed.

Compared with Yang Dongfang's descendants, Liu Songshan's Xinzi Battalion is a ruthless character, and the soldiers below don't blink an eye when they kill people, they are very experienced in this kind of murder and arson, and direct slaughter.

Seeing all this, Yang Dongfang didn't say much, when he became a king, his mood was already different, this is the northwest, not the Central Plains, not the south of the Yangtze River, not the two Guangzhous of Sichuan Province.

Killing is the royal road in the northwest, and whoever wants to rule here is an iron-blooded policy, and this has been the case since ancient times.

This is also the reason why Yang Dongfang took Liu Songshan's brigade to Ningxia, because this brigade was ruthless enough, and in the original history, it was Liu Songshan who fought Jinjibao and Ma Hualong, but later Liu Songshan died in Ningxia.

The command was handed over to his nephew Liu Jintang.
