Shui Qingliu led 100,000 Guanbei soldiers to attack Guiwucheng in the south, and sent a group of men and horses to try to reach Yanbei through the Yushan Mountain Road to support the troops led by Wang Qinwei.

Because the masters of the Power Sect arrived, the Yanbei Army was surrounded by three routes, and the number of people had a great advantage. The 30,000 iron-blooded army was a little demoralized and somewhat shaken because of the continuous battle, and was defeated under the siege of the three roads in Yanbei.

Although there are still thousands of people in the Iron Blood Army after the defeat, the morale of the army has been dispersed. The royal guards were unable to restrain the soldiers, so they were allowed to flee.

A few days after the Guanbei soldiers attacked Yushan Pass, they also received the news of the defeat of the Yanbei Iron Army. Shui Qingliu had not yet been conquered because Guiwucheng had not yet been conquered, so he had to withdraw the army in front of Yushan Pass, preparing to attack Yanbei after capturing Guiwucheng.

Xu Diaoling looked at the retreating Guan Bei pawn and finally breathed a sigh of relief. This is his first mission since he defected to Wei Zeng, if he really loses Yushan Pass, I'm afraid he really won't have the face to stay in the righteous army.

Sagari and Gucha led their troops to hunt down the fleeing Predators, and took the opportunity to expand the Rebels' sphere of influence. The Yanbei Righteous Army defeated the Iron and Blood Army, but it shocked the surrounding states and counties, and the governors of these states and counties did not dare to confront the Righteous Army and joined the Righteous Army. But there is only one place, and that is Suicheng in the land of Xu Huai.

After the Jingnan army was annihilated, the 10,000 borrowed Jingnan army were rushed back from Jiangnan and stationed in Suicheng. Originally, these armies planned to take advantage of the fact that the iron-blooded army was advancing all the way, and they would also take the opportunity to attack Yanbei. But the Predators were quickly defeated, leaving these people afraid to take another step forward.

Regarding the great feud between Wei Zeng and the Jingnan army, the guards of Suicheng already knew. The city lord of Suicheng and the remnants of the generals of the Jingnan Army were afraid of Wei Zeng's revenge and did not dare to return to the Yanbei Righteous Army, so they abolished the name of the Jingnan Army, changed their name to Suicheng Bing, and sent envoys to Anyun to ask for reinforcements.

Suicheng is a big city of Xuhuai, and it is not easy to conquer it with 10,000 people guarding it. The Yanbei Righteous Army had just gone through a major battle and did not have the energy to do another siege battle, so they withdrew to the land of Yanbei.

The Anyun Iron Blood Army still has 170,000 troops, but the generals of the Iron Blood Army do not trust their colleagues in Guanxi and Jiangnan, for fear that these people will take advantage of An Yun's emptiness to carve up An Yun. The main force of the Iron Blood Army was encircling and suppressing the Jiliushan Righteous Army, but other troops did not dare to dispatch at will. Therefore, when the Cultists of Power captured Hexi, the Iron Army did not attack; When Suicheng asked for reinforcements, the Iron Blood Army only let it hold on.

After the great victory of the Yanbei rebels, they were given a period of respite. Wei Zeng took the opportunity to enhance the military strength of the rebel army, and a large number of weapons and armor captured from the Iron Blood Army were distributed to the soldiers, and these soldiers who had experienced the baptism of war also became the backbone of the Yanbei Rebel Army, and the number of the Yanbei Rebel Army was slowly increasing, and the combat effectiveness was also slowly increasing.

Qi Weilun was in charge of Yanbei's political affairs, and governed Yanbei in an orderly manner, the people of Yanbei were attached, and production was slowly restored.

Qi Weilun told Wei Zeng that as long as there was a bumper harvest in the coming year, it would not be a problem to form an army of 100,000. But now that Yanbei has gone through two major wars and there is a lot of wasteland, he will try his best to collect the displaced people, and he also hopes that Wei Zeng can use the strength of the army to reclaim the tuntian. If you miss the spring ploughing, the rebels will have to work hard in the coming year.

The people regard food as the sky, and Wei Zeng does not dare to despise the food problem, especially in the troubled times when food is more expensive than gold. Taking advantage of the winter, Wei Zeng divided the 50,000 troops of Yanbei into various places, and prepared to reclaim wasteland while practicing.

Now that the situation in Yanbei is very good, there seems to be nothing to worry about. However, the ancient investigation of the ancient city of Huifang is indeed a mixed blessing.

Because of the matter of agreeing to the land of the Power Sect, the westward advance of the Yanbei Righteous Army was greatly hindered, so Wei Zeng told him well. Gu Cha was annoyed in his heart, and secretly decided that whoever asked him to sign the document in the future would not sign it if he was killed.

Gu Chayi wanted to get Zhao Jiahui back, but this was a master he had recruited with great difficulty. But Wei Zeng said that the Lux Battalion was very useful in dealing with Anyun Iron Cavalry, and Zhao Jiahui was a master of blunt weapons, so he could be the instructor of the Lux Battalion, and then he gave a lot of truths. Qi Weilun was also very supportive when he found out, and he also gave the Lux Camp a domineering title: Guanshan Battalion. The soldiers of the Lux Battalion are collectively referred to: Guanshan Lux.

Since Wei Zeng and Qi Weilun agreed, he naturally had no choice but to let Zhao Jiahui out. But it's not that Gu Chayi didn't get nothing, there were no people, at least there were not horses.

Yan Xiuxiu heard that as soon as Gu Cha returned from victory, he came out of the ancient city to greet Gu Chayi, and as soon as he left the city gate, he saw a large group of boundless horses, not to mention more than three or four thousand, Yan Xiuxiu was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth for a while.

"Brother Wei, do you want you to be a stable? How did you give you so many horses? I don't think the whole ancient city can fit it. Yan Xiuxiu said in surprise.

"Wei Zeng wants me to train a cavalry unit and find all the horses we can find in Yanbei. The rear cart was loaded with armor and weapons, enough to equip a cavalry force of 3,000 men. I plan to enclose a piece of land outside the ancient city and dedicate it to a cavalry training camp. Gu Cha scratched his head and said.

"That's a good thing, the cavalry is so mighty. Why do you look unhappy? Yan Xiuxiu frowned when she saw Gu Cha, and said with a bitter face.

"There are no people, no more Zhao Zhuangshi." Gu Cha replied.

"Zhao Zhuangshi is dead, why haven't I heard of it?" Yan Xiuxiu was surprised.

"It's not dead, it's just that Wei Zeng is allowed to stay and train the Guanshan Camp." Gu Chayi said with annoyance.

"One person for so many horses, we don't lose. I made you soup, and after drinking my soup, all your worries were gone. Let's go, don't look like this anymore. Yan Xiuxiu said and pushed Gu Chayi into the city.

Wei Zeng discussed the affairs of the army with Sagari and Gu Cha, and returned to Shifeng City with 10,000 horses. Gu Cha once defended the ancient city and sent troops to the west; Sajiali plundered Xu Huai to the south, and after arriving in Suicheng, she also began to return to defense, and has not yet returned.

Wei went to the City Lord's Mansion and saw Qi Weilun and a group of civil officials handling affairs, so he went over to inquire about the affairs of Shifeng City. Bypassing the Xiao Wall, I saw that Wei Zhen was also here, sitting in one place, reading some official documents and other things with his head on his lean.

"Brother Wei, I want to ask Mr. Qi about your news, I just read these things when I am idle and bored, but I don't want to interfere in political affairs." Wei Zhen saw Wei Zeng coming, threw down the official document in his hand, and hurriedly explained.

"Zhen'er, I don't have so many rules here, I don't care if a woman can't do politics or something like that. As I said, I have a part of your glory today, and I can tell you what you don't understand. Wei Zeng waved his hand and said.

"It's good that Brother Wei doesn't blame me, why don't you notify me when you enter the city, I'll go to the city gate to greet me." Yui Zhen relaxed and asked.

"What do I need to report when I go back to my home? Is Big Brother here? Wei Zeng said with a smile.

"Mr. Qi is very tired from dealing with affairs these days, and he just went to the back room to rest for a while, so he shouldn't have woken up yet. Is there anything urgent about the husband? "Only Zhen replied.

"There's no rush. Now that we have defeated the Iron Army, the Guanbei Army has also retreated, and the situation in Yanbei is very good, just let Mr. Qi have a good rest. Wei Zeng said and sat in his seat, opening the official document that Wei Zhen had just taken and looked at it.

"Husband, if there is nothing wrong, I will go back to the room first. Take care of your official business. Yuzhen said that he was about to withdraw.

"Don't be in a hurry to leave, really. Sitting here, we haven't seen each other for a long time, and we'll talk for a while. This is talking about the matter in the western Tuntian, are you interested in this? Wei Zeng said.

"I'm just flipping through it, but there are some things I don't understand." Wei Zhen sat beside Wei Zeng and said.

"This is in the western tuntianyi to develop wasteland, which is very remote and there are not many people, and the army used to use the wasteland. The second is to guard against the army of the Strength Sect, although we are allies......"

In this way, Wei Zeng explained some arrangements to Wei Zhen unhurriedly. Wei Zhen sat beside Wei Zeng and listened quietly, and sometimes lowered his head in thought. opened the official documents one by one, and explained the main affairs of Yanbei.

Wei Zeng saw Weizhen's expression of listening quietly, his heart moved, and he felt that this scene was warm, so he wrapped his right hand around Weizhen's waist, and his left hand couldn't help but caress Weizhen's hair.

Wei really listened to Wei Zeng talk about some things about the Mobei Zhantu people, and he couldn't pay attention to anything, and suddenly found that Wei Zeng didn't speak, and when he looked up and found Wei Zeng's strange appearance, he blushed and said: "Husband, there are a lot of people outside, let's go back to the room." ”

"I just suddenly found that my real child was so beautiful, and I was tempted for a while." Wei Tian withdrew his hand, but his gaze remained gentle.

"Ahem" only heard a coughing sound, Wei Zeng and Weizhen looked up, and saw a person's figure reflected on the Xiao wall.

"Brother Xian is back, is there anything to do with me?" It turned out that Qi Weilun had woken up and heard the news of Wei Zeng's return, so he came over.

Wei Zhen hurriedly got up, walked out of the Xiao wall and saluted Qi Weilun, and then left in a hurry.

"Brother Xian and his wife reunited after a long absence, it was Qi who disturbed you. But I'm worried that Brother Xian has something important, so I rushed over, so don't blame Brother Xian. Qi Weilun walked into Xiao Wall and said with a smile.

"I just came to see my eldest brother to rest, and I can't bear to disturb me. While waiting, he told Zhen'er some things about Yanbei, but he didn't expect to forget the time. Big brother, sit down, I have something to discuss with you," Wei Zeng said.

"Brother Xian has something, just call me up earlier, if it is because of a misunderstanding, then Qi is a sinner." Qi Weilun sat down and said.

"There is no urgency in this matter, just send someone to Zhang Ling to discuss the Hedong border and the specific details of future cooperation." Wei Zeng said.

"This matter is also a miscalculation by the Gu brothers, and now the fertile land in Hexi and the iron ore in Hedong have fallen into Zhang Ling's hands, otherwise we would have gained that is also a big advantage. However, if the Predators attack again, the Sect of Power will also resist us for a while. This can be described as a pros and cons. Qi Weiren said.

"Now we have captured some land in Hedong, but it is intertwined with the land of the Power Sect, which is not easy to do. The border is unstable, and then there will be conflicts, which is not a good thing for Yanbei, which has just stabilized. Wei Zeng said worriedly.

"I see that the Jiang boy you brought back from Yushan is very clever, and you can send him over to discuss with Zhang Ling. Presumably, with his ability, it shouldn't be a problem. Ziviren suggested.

"I'm going to have someone bring him over, and we'll tell him what he means and see how he copes." Wei Zeng pondered.

"No problem, whether it's a talent or just a façade, it depends on his performance this time." Qi Weilun nodded.
