After two days of heavy snowfall, the sun finally rose lazily, and the snow on the ground gradually turned into a stream, bubbling and flowing, but the temperature around it was even colder.

After staying for two days, Zhao Xun took the personal guard battalion to Yanzhou City first, and the captains of various departments also rushed back to the station. In the northern Baixian County, there are former government troops stationed for the time being. In the plan, at both ends of the north side of Baixian County, a guard fort will be built to protect the north side of the city with the momentum of the horn, and the city wall will also be built to protect the north. Zhao Xun was accompanied by Zhang Yuanjing and others, and Zamuhe also followed.

The original Zhongzi Battalion, along with the Heavy Battalion and the Heavy Battalion, then withdrew to Yanzhou City and was no longer guarding Baixian. After all, it's not a good idea to let the cavalry guard the place.

As for the 11,000 captives, except for about 5,000 wounded, the rest were all moved to Yanzhou City, and how to settle them still needs to be further discussed. And three of the six or seven main generals remained, including Antai, who decided to join the Huolin Army and did not want to return to the tribe. As for the other two, they point to becoming ordinary people and fighting wars, which is really not that piece of material.

"My lord, we can see Yanzhou City." Han Meng pointed to the white distance and said loudly.

Indeed, in the vast white world, a black shadow is particularly conspicuous. Thinking that he had not returned for almost a month, Zhao Xun suddenly returned to his heart like an arrow, lifted the reins of the horse, galloped forward, and laughed: "Go!" Let's go home! ”

Knowing that the Huolin Army had won a great victory on the northern front and defeated tens of thousands of northern navy that had invaded the south, it shocked the hearts of everyone up and down in Yanzhou City. Everyone thoroughly understands that Zhao Xun's stable control of Yanzhou Mansion is already an unchangeable fact. Coupled with the victory in the battle of the Yingzhou Mansion in the south, the Huolin Army has already occupied the land of the two prefectures, and it is still taken from the hands of the Yan Army, and even the imperial court cannot be deprived of it without reason. Now, let everyone in Yanzhou Mansion understand that the Huolin Army will be the master of Yanzhou Mansion in the future.

Knowing that Zhao Xun had returned today, in addition to the generals guarding the Huolin Army and the people of the Zhao Mansion, even the idle officials of the Assassin Mansion were waiting at the city gate. Subsequently, the people of Yanzhou City also learned that Zhao Xun had returned to the city, and they all poured out at once to welcome the heroes who won the war. The prisoners of the Northern Navy who were escorted a few days ago were seen by everyone.

"My lord, it seems that there are quite a few people outside the city gates, are they welcoming us?" Han Meng pointed to the distance and said.

Zhao Xungang wanted to say no, but after thinking about it, now in Yanzhou Mansion, besides himself, who can let so many people come to greet him.

"Let's go! Let's check it out! Zhao Xun whipped his horse and headed towards the city gate.

Approaching the city gate, Zhao Xun found that the people at the front were really Situ Liang, Zhao Hai and other left-behind figures of the Huolin Army, and around them were the officials of the former Yanzhou Mansion Assassin Mansion with a respectful face. On Situ Liang's side, there is also a carriage, you don't need to look at Zhao Xun to know that it must be your own family, because this Baotou steel carriage that needs to be driven by four good horses is made by the craftsman for himself, and he stays at home for his family to travel.

"Congratulations, sir! Congratulations, Greetings! This time, my lord, I defeated the southern invasion of the Northern Navy in one fell swoop, and the merit lies in Sheji! ”

"Yes! Lord Zhao's move has greatly increased the prestige of my Yan country......"

The mixed praises were endless, and Zhao Xun had no choice but to respond one by one with a smile.

The two women who saw him from the curtain of the door, whispered hello, and beckoned everyone to march towards the city, after all, the weather was too cold. With the arrival of a large number of Huolin Army troops, Yanzhou City has turned into a sea of joy and joy. The southern invasion of the Northern Navy army made the people of Yanzhou Mansion uneasy, and the damage caused by the invasion of Yanzhou Mansion by the Yan Army was still in sight, and the situation of Yingzhou Mansion also came. These people don't want the good days that have just come to pass away. Knowing that after learning of the great victory of the Huolin Army, the people were completely relieved.

At this moment, all the people gathered on both sides of the street to welcome the return of the Huolin Army's victory. At this moment, the official mansion of the Yan Kingdom has basically been thrown behind by them, and the emperor and the court have been left behind early in the morning. At this moment, in their eyes, there is only Huolin Army, and only Zhao Xun's Cunzài.

When Zhao Xun and them entered the city gate cave, they found that in front of them, a large number of people from Yanzhou City had gathered, and they looked at the Huolin Army excitedly, as if they were going to make some earth-shattering move. There were many surging people, there were tens of thousands of people, and the Youfu army, which was responsible for maintaining order, had to set up a cordon on both sides of the street.

"Fire Lin Army!" Suddenly, someone let out a whisper of joy.

Then in an instant, it was as if there was a thunderclap on the ground. The cheers sounded again, this time, it was no longer the shouts of one person, nor the shouts of several people, but the cheers of a large group of people, the cheers of countless people, in the cheers, there were men and women, old and young, and finally, it seemed that the people of the entire Yanzhou City were all cheering excitedly.

"Fire Lin Army!" "Fire Lin Army!" "Fire Lin Army!" "Zhao Xun!" "Zhao Xun!" "Zhao Xun!"

The loud cheers were deafening. The vast number of people, through guò's unsympathetic roar, vented their love for the Huolin Army to their heart's content.

Zhao Xun didn't expect that he had only defeated the invasion of the Northern Navy, and he would be so supported. So he rode on his horse and bowed his head lightly to thank the people for their enthusiasm. Unexpectedly, the cheers of that position became even stronger, not only surround the Huolin Army that entered the city, but also seemed to overturn the entire Yanzhou City to the Nine Heavens.

"Adults are so popular? It's incredible! Zhang Yuanjing looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes! I didn't expect that! Liu Wenqian also sighed, at this moment, he felt that the path he had chosen was the right one, although the other party was only a boy who was not more than eighteen years old.

In a restaurant not far away, there was a group of people, lying on the window, quietly watching the movement below. This person is none other than Su Ziyan, who participated in the Southern Expedition with Zhao Xun a month ago. It's just that for some reason, she is here again, and there are five or six young people around.

"This is the Fire Lin Army! Everything they did was embraced and supported by the people, and you must know that with the support of the people, they would lack nothing, and this was their solid base camp. And the young man on the red horse was Zhao Xun. It is said that he is only eighteen years old this year! Su Ziyan leaned in front of the window and said lightly to the six people beside him.

One of the young women nodded frequently, and said with emotion: "I have lived here for five months, and I have seen the Huolin Army grow step by step, and to this day, occupy the land of the two prefectures and dominate one side. A few days ago, it defeated the 60,000 or 70,000 troops of the Northern Navy. Is...... It's a moment like no other! ”

Among the six people, four men and two women, plus Su Ziyan, a total of seven, and the seven of them were liaison envoys sent by the Shunzhou Army. The southern front of the Huolin Army shouted loudly and occupied the Yingzhou Mansion, but the Shunzhou Mansion was getting worse and worse, and it was worse day by day. The current Shunzhou army has no more than 10,000 remaining soldiers, and its territory is only one county, which is precarious. This time, Li Yu even asked his niece to bring the young generals under his command to contact Zhao Xun and ask for support.

Except for Su Ziyan, the rest of the people are all about twenty-three or four, and they are all the descendants of some generals under Li Yu of the Shunzhou Army. This time, let them come to see the situation of the Huolin Army. Because after Su Ziyan finally returned to the Shunzhou Army, the situation he said made many young people disagree.

The other five people's faces were a little depressed, not because they were dissatisfied with Huolin Jun and Zhao Xun, but because they saw with their own eyes that six thousand people were escorted to Yanzhou City to be divided and transformed. At the same time, they also knew that there were also weapons in Baixian City, and the Northern Navy prisoners. It has not yet been handed over.

A young man who looked more calm said to the woman who spoke before: "Wei'er, you have been in Yanzhou Mansion for the longest time, do you know how many soldiers there are in the Huolin Army?" ”

Yang Wei'er raised her eyebrows, and said in a coquettish voice: "Brother Xin, I remember that before you left, you were very disdainful of the Huolin Army, what?" Interested? ”

"Vier! How do you talk to Brother Xin Ming? Another handsome young man who looked somewhat similar to Yang Wei'er scolded loudly.

"Dude! Am I not right? Sister Ziyan said, you don't want to hear it, and you don't bother to listen to it. How about now? See? Wherever the Huolin army is going, the Yan army is crushed for thousands of miles, and the people welcome it! ”

Xin Ming obviously knew Yang Wei'er's temperament very well, smiled and waved his hand and said, "Brother Yang Qiu, it's okay, it's our fault." ”

"That's it! My sister, don't make them uncomfortable anymore. Tell Sister Sù, how strong is the Huolin Army? So that we can be prepared. If this delay continues, the Shunzhou army will be finished. Another charming woman in a pale red coat said lazily.

"Now that Sister Bing'er has spoken, Miss Ben won't quarrel with you anymore. As far as I know, the Huolin Army has 4,000 guards, including 1,000 heavy cavalry and 1,000 heavy infantry soldiers. Eight battalions of cavalry, totaling 8,000 people. It seems that the infantry army should be four prefectures, with a total of 20,000 people. There are several new barracks, I don't know at the moment! ”

After thinking for a while, Yang Wei'er said again: "Oh, I almost forgot that under the command of the Huolin Army, there is also a cavalry battalion formed by the surrendered Yan Army, with more than 2,000 people. ”

The faces of several people were even more depressed when they said this, and it seemed that it was still very difficult to persuade the Huolin Army to send troops to Shunzhou.

"In that case, it shouldn't be a problem for the Huolin Army to send troops, he has so many soldiers!" A slightly rugged young man said.

Xin Ming smiled bitterly: "Brother Zhu Tear, this is wrong. The Huolin army fought on the southern front, although it won a big victory, but the Yingzhou Mansion was still in the hands of the Yan army, and at the same time, in order to resist the Weizhou Mansion on the west side, the army of the Shunzhou Mansion could not withdraw for the time being, and more importantly, they had to guard against the Yan army in the south. The northern front also won a big victory, but it also had to rest, and the fierce battle in recent months must have cost him a lot of logistics. ”

"I don't know if it's hard or not, but if you go on like this, you won't be able to achieve anything. Let's wait for Zhao Xun to settle down, let's talk about it after we visit and ask. Finally, the young man who didn't say a word said coldly.

"It's not as hard as you think!" Sitting on the chair, supporting his chin, Qian Bingjiao, who was playing with a wine glass, said drippingly.

When the others heard this, they immediately turned around and looked at Qian Bing in unison.

Xin Ming hurriedly said: "Bing'er, let's talk about it, now that the Shunzhou army continues to support, it's not the time to joke, what good can you do, but it's okay?" ”

"Yes! Sister Bing'er, say it quickly! Yang Weier also said repeatedly.

Qian Bing smiled, with an obedient look on her charming face, and said with a smile: "We don't have her to deal with this problem, as long as she goes to that Zhao Xun and talks about it." Maybe it's done! ”

Everyone followed Qian Bing's eyes, and in front of the window, Su Ziyanzhen, who was wearing a white silk coat and a white fox with a white fox on his shoulders, stroked the long sword in his arms with both hands, and looked out fixedly.

"I'll see it!" Finally, the young man, who had not said a word, spat out these words, and then stopped talking.

"I support Xie Tong's opinion!" The honest Zhu tear also said.

The rest of the people nodded secretly, Yang Wei'er walked slowly to Su Ziyan's side, and said in Su Ziyan's ear, "How is it?" This kind of hero, meet your standards! ”

"What?" Su Ziyan was stunned for a moment, and then came to his senses. When he turned around, he found that everyone around him was looking at him with deep meaning. Somewhat understood at the moment, and said coldly with a red face: "Boring! ”

Qian Bingjiao smiled: "Are you bored? Ziyan, the big thing is called with you, who made you familiar with him? And, I'm sure, it's not your average cooked! ”

"Qian Bing! You can't be serious! Su Ziyan said helplessly.

"Ziyan, to be honest, you know best what our situation is now, so you still need to come forward in this matter, after all, you have been in contact with him. It's also much more advantageous to talk about things. Xin Ming is colorful.

"But...... Alas...... You don't know, that guy just doesn't get oil and salt at all, he insists on not moving, what can we do? Ringing the last conversation with Zhao Xun, Su Ziyan became angry for a while.

Xin Ming said: "This time, you go, ask him directly, what conditions are needed, and he can agree!" He won't do anything good without it......"
