Soon after conquering Jiangbei Province, Zhu Luchen sent his general Xu Wenda with 30,000 foot soldiers and Chang Fengchun with 10,000 cavalry to take the fleet and take the Shuangshui River to Jiangbei Province. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

On behalf of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment, Regiment Commander Xiao Liu expressed a warm welcome to the arrival of the two generals. Xu Wenda and Chang Fengchun will follow the alliance with the garrison regiment, and the soldiers and horses led by them will be under the control of the northern garrison regiment.

Soon after, Zhu Luchen increased his army by 50,000 and sent additional local officials to occupy the city that the Dingbei garrison had assigned to him. Among the 50,000 soldiers and horses, 30,000 soldiers and horses belonged to the commander of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment, and the 100,000 soldiers and horses who arrived before were under the control of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment. The remaining 20,000 are responsible for guarding the newly arrived cities separately.

Although Zhu Luchen was a hero, he really didn't dare to fool the Shangdingbei garrison regiment, and he did not replace it with Minzhuang auxiliaries, but honestly sent his elite soldiers and horses, and used the naval army under his command to transport them all the way to Jiangbei (left) Province.

The logistics of grain and grass were all transported by Zhu Luchen's navy. In accordance with the rules, the Dingbei Garrison Regiment let Pingmingguo bear the cost of food, grass, salaries and other materials for the soldiers.

The naval army under Zhu Luchen was extremely powerful, and most of the elite of the original Ping Zhou Dynasty were in Jiangnan, and finally fell into his hands after several rounds. Zhu Luchen commanded a naval army, with thousands of large and small warships. Among them, there are more than 10 large ships with pointed bottom keels, more than 20 giant building ships, and various warships of various sizes such as ocean-going ships.

Due to the abundant water in the south of the Yangtze River and the proximity to the South Sea, the maritime trade is prosperous, and the shipbuilding industry here is extremely developed. In Luodu in the northwest, Li Shiluan could not find many senior shipbuilders, but Zhu Luchen had many in his hands. Moreover, these craftsmen are extremely intelligent, and after just a few years of exploration, they have been able to successfully imitate that kind of pointed keel battleship.

Zhu Luchen's follow-up soldiers and horses came so happily, half of them were taken by the great combat power of the Dingbei garrison regiment, and half of them were lured by those cities.

Just like Li Shiluan at the beginning, Zhu Luchen didn't expect that the Dingbei Garrison would be so faithful to the covenant, and really hand over those cities so easily, without any conditions attached.

Hu Hai and Deng Yu, the two generals who arrived with the navy first, after seeing the siege of the Dingbei garrison regiment, secretly reported to the emperor, saying that the Dingbei garrison regiment was extremely strong and incapacitated, and urged their emperor to abide by the covenant.

After learning that the Dingbei garrison was like a sheep, it blocked tens of thousands of cavalry of the Tuliao capture army in the last small area controlled by the Tuliao State in Jiangbei Province, and then ruthlessly wiped it out along with the remaining cities.

After the end of this battle, Zhu Luchen did not dare to delay any longer, and at this time he already had a very specific impression of the strength of the Dingbei garrison. After sending out the remaining soldiers, Zhu Luchen was ready to be kneaded by the garrison regiment at will, and he had no hope that the Dingbei garrison would be able to keep the covenant. Although the generals under his command all wrote to him that the Dingbei garrison was very credible.

Believe that the powerful Dingbei garrison will speak of credibility? Are you kidding.

I've pinned my head to the waistband of my trousers and fought the world for so many years, and I haven't seen any kind of person. The Chen Luyou who was defeated by me started by killing his friends and plundering his soldiers and horses for himself, and finally entrenched himself in Pohu Province, with more than 100,000 troops. I fought with him for several years before I was lucky enough to wipe him out. If Lao Tzu believed that people would talk about credibility, the bones and scum that had been pitted would have been gone a long time ago, where could there be today.

It is natural for the weak to eat the strong, and to bully the weak with the strong. Lao Tzu has ascended to the throne step by step from an unknown person over the years, is it because of the pity and sympathy of others? It's not that he personally exterminated the surrounding heroes one by one, and finally defeated the Tuliao people and fought for today's imperial foundation. I can have today, ascend the throne and become the emperor, and sit on the dragon chair because I am stronger than them!

Zhu Luchen is such a hero. He believes that it is natural for the strong to exploit and devour the weak, even without the consent of the weak. The so-called benevolence means that the strong can show a little mercy for the weak. If the strong do a little bit of this, they will be praised for their benevolence. At the beginning, Zhu Luchen arranged for the husband and wife separated in the army to reunite, and forcibly stopped the soldiers from collecting "village grain" by taking captives, all of which won him praise. Even capable people like Song Lian and Liu Ji were willing to go out to assist him at the beginning, because he had a reputation for benevolence.

Now that the Dingbei garrison is so strong, even if he is the emperor of a country, he has to give in honestly and let it take his control. As a weak person, he is not qualified to negotiate terms with the strong, so he can only obey unconditionally. As for whether the garrison would abide by the covenant, Zhu Luchen did not dare to expect it at all.

Zhu Luchen even had the same idea as the emperor Li Shiluan in the west. This person is too embarrassed and has no taste. There are still people who can press on Renjun's head, and even you don't dare to turn over casually.

But in the end, Zhu Luchen never expected that the Dingbei garrison would really follow the covenant and give him the city in full, without making any additional requirements. Later, from the secret reports of the generals, Zhu Luchen also repeatedly confirmed this.

In those cities, the Dingbei garrison even forbade a single soldier of the Pingtang Kingdom to enter.

Xu Nongda and Chang Fengchun were also apprehensive on the way here. For the Dingbei garrison regiment that is about to meet, his second general also has mixed feelings in his heart.

Both of them are independent generals, not to mention that they are famous in the world, at least they are also famous. But against the Shangdingbei Garrison Regiment, the achievements of the two of them seem to be so worthless.

The second general silently counted the great victories of the Dingbei garrison regiment all over the world in his heart, and waited for the legendary head of the garrison regiment Liu Zun to summon him with apprehension in his heart. At this moment, in the hearts of the two generals, they have subconsciously put Head Liu on an equal footing with their own emperor.

Xu Nongda and Chang Fengchun's first impression when they saw Xiao Liu, not surprisingly, the second general exclaimed in their hearts at the same time: "He is so young!" ”

On behalf of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment, Regiment Commander Xiao Liu warmly welcomed the two generals and personally pointed out the camp area to the second general.

The second general's second impression of Captain Liu is that this Captain Liu is so approachable! This is not the kind of corporal who is in a position of superiority, and only then shows it. It's that this head Liu really treats you as an equal.

The second general was apprehensive, and according to the position personally pointed out by the head of Xiao Liu, he went straight to the past and set up camp without mentioning it.

Now that the entire Jiangbei Province has been pacified, relying on the naval army to block the river, it is no longer difficult for the cavalry of the Tuliao State to enter Jiangbei Province at will to make trouble. All the cities have also been divided between the two countries, except for Fancheng, which served as the base camp of the garrison.

Due to its special location, Fancheng is located at the junction of Xiahe Province, Jiangbei Province, Beiyi Province and Xudu Province. Therefore, it was still used by the Dingbei Garrison as the base camp for the future attack on Xudu and Northern Hebei Provinces, and it was temporarily retained.

After the battle, the Dingbei garrison began to recuperate and was in no hurry to continue to launch a new offensive. Although Xu Nongda and Chang Fengchun didn't understand why Commander Liu didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue and enter Xudu Province. But neither of them opened their mouths to ask, but obeyed the arrangement and honestly pressed the camp east of Fancheng.

Although the two generals were honest and obedient, one of them refused to be honest. It's Chang Mao, since he lost to Li Wushu in the last battle, he has been obsessed with it, trying to find a chance to win back for a while. originally thought that once Li Wushu left, he would never have a chance to get it back.

Unexpectedly, he followed his father Chang Fengchun to the Dingbei Garrison Regiment, and Chang Mao was a little eager to try it now, eager to defeat Li Invincible for a while. On this day, he finally found Li Wudi and asked the two to compete again.

Of course, Li Wudi would not refuse, and the two came to the school field and sweated again. This time, Chang Mao still failed to get back one percent.

The reason why Regiment Commander Xiao Liu suspended the offensive was that the situation had changed in a new way.

When the soldiers and horses of the captured army in Jiangbei Province were finally exterminated, Commander Xiao Liu had been analyzing the purpose of the 50,000 captured troops who ventured into Jiangbei Province to fight. But he always felt that there was a lot of fog behind the operation of the Capture Army, which made it difficult for him to conclude.

Jiangbei Province has made it clear that it is the bag of the Dingbei garrison regiment, with the wisdom of Fan Guoshi and the sage of Emperor Tuliao, how can he not see this?

If you want to recapture Jiangbei Province, it is only possible unless the Tuliao Emperor suddenly goes crazy and drives all the cavalry into Jiangbei Province, which is crisscrossed by waterways, to fight a decisive battle with the Dingbei garrison. But this is clearly not going to happen.

But in this case, the Tuliao Emperor still sent 50,000 captive troops into Jiangbei Province to fight, which really doesn't make sense from a logical point of view.

This sudden large-scale military operation of the Tuliao State was shrouded in layers of fog behind it, which made Commander Xiao Liu feel puzzled and incomprehensible, and it was difficult to judge the true intentions of the Tuliao State.

One day, he had a discussion with his junior brother Li Deyi, but he inadvertently lifted a corner of this fog.

"Senior brother, there have been a lot of sneaky people in our city recently, have you noticed?" Li Deyi asked, standing next to the terrain sand table.

"You noticed it too? When you went to Jiangnan, I caught three spies, but all three of them were dead soldiers, and after being caught, seeing that there was no hope of escape, they bit the poison sac in their mouths and committed suicide on the spot. These spies are quite powerful, and in order to catch them, they caused a lot of trouble to the soldiers patrolling our garrison regiment, and injured five brothers. Commander Xiao Liu said, stretched out his hand and took out a copy of the sorted out military information, and handed it to his junior brother.

Li Deyi took it, opened the sealing line, took out the military information inside and looked at it carefully, and immediately said in surprise: "Senior brother, this is said that a wax pill with secret military information was found from them?" ”

Captain Xiao Liu raised his head and looked at his junior brother, waiting for his next step.

Li Deyi recounted in detail the situation that he caught the dead man on the way back.

"What is written on that note you found?"

Li Deyi: "It's a Tuliao script, and I don't recognize it." ”

Xiao Liu reached out and took out a small cloth bag and poured out three notes from it.

As soon as Li De saw these three notes, he immediately said, "Senior brother, look, this is the note I found. ”

As he spoke, Li Deyi took out the note he had seized and put the four notes together.

The two brothers could see at a glance that the four slips of paper full of Tuliao characters were made of exactly the same material!

"In this way, the dead soldiers who followed you and the dead soldiers I searched for in Fancheng are the same people!" Head Xiao Liu immediately made a judgment.
