The main army of the Alliance? Night and night, to the fastest speed to Fangcheng, thought that there was a big battle, the result was unexpected, before arriving in Fangcheng, there was good news, the alliance horse army at around midnight sneak attack successful, captured the west city gate, and then the defenders in the city collapsed, have defected, Xi Wangfu was wiped out overnight, Fangcheng overcome.

The good news spread, and the soldiers of the alliance thundered with joy, their morale was high, and the march was faster.

Li Fengyun was happy and surprised. In his plan, the humiliating royal army first opened the city gate, mixed into the city, and then waited until the main army arrived, the two sides should cooperate with the outside, first take a city gate, break through the defense of the city, and then enter the city, annihilate the stubborn defenders, and capture the Xi Wangfu. This siege plan is actually very risky, once the news of the surrender of the city is leaked, the Xi Wangfu prepared in advance, and the humiliating king is to throw themselves into the net and seek their own death.

As a result, the humiliating royal department not only successfully opened the city gate and infiltrated the city, but also took the west city gate in one go. The battle went on here, and the risk quickly got out of control, because the main force of the alliance had not yet arrived, and only the six thousand horse army held the west city gate, once the Xi Wangfu launched a crazy counterattack, surrounded and killed on all sides, even if the six thousand horse army held on until the main force arrived, the losses were extremely heavy, and if the whole army was destroyed, it would be a heavy blow to the alliance.

However, the heavens favored the alliance's luck was very good, and the top and bottom of the Xi Wangfu believed that the Middle Earth was attacking in a big way, and the north-south attack had been completed, and the Xi King A Huizheng and the main army of the five Xi tribes were still far away between the lofty mountains and mountains at the eastern foot of Mayu Mountain, which was out of reach, the defeat was decided, and the defeat was imminent, so the army's heart collapsed, and they were in a state of confusion, and they knocked themselves down.

The alliance not only gained the initiative on the battlefield in Anzhou, but also used this advantage to control the development of the situation inside and outside the Great Wall in the future, laying a solid foundation for further expanding the results and expanding the strength of the alliance.

Soon, Li Fengyun received a second good news, according to the report of the surrender of Xi Wangfu, the day before yesterday, the important southwest town of Baitancheng guarded the general and Su Zhi urgently reported, Baitan City was suddenly surrounded by the Chinese army on September 22, Chu and Su Zhi considered being outnumbered, took the initiative to abandon the city, and Baitancheng fell in the afternoon of the same day.

That's the good news. Extrapolating from the time, this should be the work of the southward selection army led by Li Zixiong. It was not in the plan to conquer Baitan City, but the alliance was too lucky, and the Xi guards of Baitan City panicked and made a serious misjudgment of the situation, and as a result, the decision was wrong, and the alliance was cheapened in vain. The fall of Baitan City and the loss of support for Panlong Fort are already in the pocket of the alliance, if nothing else, Li Zixiong is now negotiating with the officials in the Great Wall and the wealthy families in Youyan in northern Hebei.

The second good news quickly spread among the officers of the Alliance. When ordinary soldiers heard the news, they also took it for granted like Xi Ren that the Middle-earth army in the Great Wall had been dispatched, and they immediately felt like they were going home, and they all had the glory of recovering the lost land, and they all cheered. And the generals of the alliance who knew the inside story were also smiling and overjoyed when they heard the news. Succeeded, the ghost side and the white sandalwood overcome, which means that the north-south attack has become a momentum, now Fangcheng Yike, most of Anzhou has been in the bag, although Xi Wang Ahuizheng and the Xi five armies can still be stationed at the eastern foot of Mayu Mountain to resist stubbornly, but the overall situation has been decided, the general trend has gone, and there is no possibility of reversal in the short term.

Miracle, Li Fengyun created another miracle, an incredible miracle. At the beginning of this month, the army had just come out of the fortress, and the soldiers looked at the endless grassland from afar, although they were forced to calm down, but they were all nervous, in the face of a strong enemy outside the fortress, there was no food and grass in the alliance, and there was no rescue soldiers outside, but they had to go all the way to fight a bloody way to recover Anzhou, which was not crazy, it was simply looking for death. However, the white-haired handsome turned his hands into clouds and covered his hands into rain, turning decay into magic, turning the impossible into possibility, and miracles appeared again.

In the morning, the main force of the alliance arrived in Fangcheng, and the generals of the horse army such as Huyanjian and Meng Ba galloped over.

Everyone was in high spirits, and after greeting and congratulating, Hu Yanjian immediately gave a brief explanation of the current situation in the city and brought up the current matters that need to be solved urgently.

The Xi Wangfu was in ashes, and it was urgent for the alliance to fully take over the military, political, and financial powers in Anzhou and quickly stabilize the situation.

Li Fengyun was confident, arranged one by one, and was orderly. The Great Governor's Office of the Alliance took over the military, political and financial power of Anzhou, among which Sima Yuan'an was in charge of military affairs, Xiao Yi, who was in charge of military affairs, and invited Antle, a wealthy businessman from outside the Saiwai, and Jian Bo, a wealthy businessman from Youyan, to take charge of finance. He also asked the humiliating king Meng'an and Mohetunhe to preside over the garrison of Fangcheng, reorganize the army of Chenghe and the prisoners, appease the people's hearts, and strive to stabilize the situation in Fangcheng and its surrounding areas in the shortest possible time.

One of the most unexpected of these appointments was the appointment of Andriol and Jane Bo to take charge of the state's finances. In the eyes of most people, this is Li Fengyun's fulfillment of his original promise.

In Huaihuang before, Li Fengyun had used the wealth of Anzhou as a temptation to persuade the Han merchants led by Andriol and Jian Bo, and the two sides joined forces to attack Anzhou. Now that Anzhou has been in the bag, Li Fengyun wants to fulfill his promise to compensate the Hanyu businessmen headed by Andriol and Jian Bo, but the compensation is a one-time payment, and let Andriol and Jian Bo take charge of Anzhou's finances, so that all the businessmen who participated in the cooperation before have joined in the construction of Anzhou, the two sides continue to cooperate and develop together, and the wealth obtained is endless and endless, and it is clear which is better and worse than the two, and many people think that Li Fengyun is too generous, and the benefits to the collaborators are too great, and the businessmen are profit-seeking, There are no businessmen and no treachery, and letting businessmen take charge of finances will do a lot of harm to Anzhou.

However, what was even more unexpected was that Andriol and Jian Bo resolutely refused Li Fengyun's invitation. Everyone is puzzled, although these two people are rich, there is still a considerable gap compared to the wealth of the Xi people, after all, the Xi people are actually an independent small kingdom, the two of them take advantage of this precious opportunity to use their power for personal gain, fill their pockets, and make a lot of money, how can they refuse?

Looking at the two aggrieved faces of Andriol and Jian Bo who dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, everyone thought about it carefully, and it slowly became apparent. Li Fengyun's pit is too big, he eats people and doesn't spit out bones, and he doesn't grit Antle and Jian Bo so much that he gritted his teeth in anger.

What is the future of Antar? Anzhou, as the barrier of Middle-earth, is a place of four wars, and it cannot change the predicament of being attacked from all sides. The situation that followed was obvious, and it was impossible for the Turks to allow Middle-earth to capture Anju, confuse the northeast, and defeat its powerful other forces to the point where they could not raise their heads. The Xi, Xi, Khitan, and other Donghu races are all vassals of the Turkic people, and they are all its wings, and to attack its wings is to contain and weaken its own strength, how can it turn a blind eye and turn a deaf ear? The Turks roared in, and the Xi people of course rushed to the front, while the Xi and Khitan did not dare to offend the Turks, and they could only reluctantly charge into battle for the Turks.

Anju is about to be in ruins, where is the future? And what is the endless abundance of wealth? The reason why Andriol and Jian Bo and other Han businessmen chose to cooperate before was purely helpless and unavoidable, and if they didn't cooperate, they would be empty of people and money, so it was better to gamble, follow Li Fengyun into Anzhou, win the bet, divide the spoils, take a handful and leave, only make money and not lose, the greater the risk, the greater the benefit. Unexpectedly, Li Fengyun was even more treacherous than them, and when it was time to divide up the spoils of war, he came to dig a pit again, not only did he not give the spoils of war, but also ate all the merchants and the wealth they invested for this risk, as well as all their net worth and lives, and even ate nothing left of the belt and bones, to put it bluntly, they were forcibly "kidnapped" to the chariot of the alliance, sharing weal and woe, life and death together.

Of course Andriol and Janebo don't do it, when they're brain idiots? But if you two don't do it or don't appreciate it, you'll turn your face. Since I have turned my face, I will no longer cooperate, and since I will no longer cooperate, what promise will I keep? The two of you can leave, and other businessmen who don't want to do it can also leave, so you won't be sent away.

Businessmen seek wealth, and they will not turn their faces until they are forced to do so, and if they do not turn their faces well, they will be empty of people and money, of course, it is better to sit down and discuss calmly, so Andriol and Jian Bo decided to accept it first, now the situation is tense, the main army of the five tribes of the Xi nationality is still there, and the final victory has not yet been decided, this battle has not yet been fought, Li Fengyun's energy is still on the battlefield, and many key things can only be decided after defeating the main army of the Xi people, and they can't take care of dividing the spoils for the time being, so it is still a good person to do it to the end, Don't be busy demolishing bridges before the river is crossed, deliberately intensifying the contradictions, which is not good for yourself.

Li Fengyun rushed the ducks to the shelves, Andriol and Jian Bo reluctantly took office, and the matter of taking over Anzhou was decided.

At this time, the temporary marshal camp has been built, and the commanders of all the armies who were ordered to come to participate in the military conference have arrived, although everyone's mood is very high, and the morale is very high, but the heart is more or less nervous, because the content of this military conference is only one, and the main army of the Xi nationality will fight a decisive battle, the victory or defeat will be determined in a battle, and if the battle is won, Anzhou will be recovered, and you can exchange Anzhou for your own bright future, otherwise the road ahead is bumpy, and the future is difficult to determine.

Meng Ba recounted in detail the process of the sneak attack on the city, as for why he violated the agreement and seized the west gate without waiting for the arrival of the main army, his explanation was that he was worried that the night would be long and dreamy, and once the secret was leaked, it would definitely fall short, and the consequences would be unimaginable, so he decisively changed his plan, and won the unanimous support of the four generals Gao Hu, Chi Xiaodou Tieyi, Wo Ye, and Meng'an.

Li Fengyun has a favorable attitude towards this, the battle situation is changing rapidly, and the front-line generals must dare to make decisions on the spot, of course, the risk fact exists, but there are inherent risks in the war, even in the case of foolproof, no one dares to say that the victory is in hand, there are too many examples of horses stumbling forward, if the front-line generals do not dare to take risks, they are afraid of bearing the responsibility for failure, but it is easier to fail.

Meng Ba was originally a little apprehensive, worried that Li Fengyun would be dissatisfied, but now that he saw Li Fengyun openly supporting him, he let go of his high heart.

In the end, Meng Ba said one thing, before the fall of King Xi's Mansion, Ah Changsheng and Feng Hong saw that the general trend had gone, so they broke through with thousands of subordinates.

From the time estimate, Ah Huizheng and the main army of the Xi people should arrive at Sanhui City, an important town in the southeast, today or tomorrow. Fangcheng is about three hundred miles away from Sanhui City, among which there are two rivers, Wulieshui and Wudushui, Ah Hui father and son should meet in Wulieshui or Wudushui, what choice will Ah Hui make after the meeting? Is it to retreat to Sanhui City and resist stubbornly according to the eastern foothills of Mayu Mountain, or to move forward bravely and fight to the death?

"Under the current situation, Ah Hui Zheng has only one choice, fight to the death, if he retreats to Sanhui City, he will be finished." Meng Ba said confidently.

Meng Ba's analysis believes that the five tribes of the Xi nationality have no confidence in winning in the face of the absolute powerhouse of Middle Earth, and this is an important reason why the Xi Wangfu fell instantly. Since it is a situation of defeat, struggle and death, of course, surrender, surrender can still survive, and you can still enjoy the shade with your back against the tree, maybe you can find a good future for yourself, and surrender is not as good as defecting before the battle, and there is still merit in the defection before the battle, and you can exchange this credit for more benefits, why not? Therefore, if Ah Huizheng does not fight a decisive battle immediately, does not take advantage of the fact that the news of the fall of Xi Wangfu has not yet spread, and does not take advantage of the fact that the army of the Xi tribe is still under its control to carry out a decisive battle, then it is obvious that when the news of the fall of Xi Wangfu spreads, the tribes of the Xi nationality will inevitably surrender or defect for their own interests, and the Ahui alliance will be completely divided, and Ah Huizheng will be completely finished, and there will be no chance of turning defeat into victory and reversal of defeat.

Li Fengyun agreed with Meng Ba's analysis, "Since this is the case, we will take a two-pronged approach, and we will completely defeat Ah Huizheng in one battle." ”

The so-called two-pronged approach is nothing more than confrontation on the battlefield and delaying the decisive battle, while outside the battlefield, using all means to sow discord and shake the morale of the military.

After agreeing on the strategy of the decisive battle, Li Fengyun ordered that after noon, except for the army that stayed in Fangcheng, the rest of the armies quickly marched eastward, with the horse army as the front, and did their best to rush to Wulieshui before the main army of the Xi people, and confronted the main army of the Xi people across the river by virtue of this natural danger.

He also sent his cronies and subordinates to the south with a team of horse troops day and night to pass a message to Li Zixiong, telling him of the current battle situation and negotiating for more advantages for Li Zixiong; secondly, Li Zixiong was asked to immediately send his main force to sweep the cities in the southwest of Anzhou, and strive to stabilize the situation in the southwest of Anzhou in the shortest possible time; Again, it is to tell Li Zixiong that although the recovery of Anzhou is imminent, the situation is more sinister, the Turks and the Donghu tribes must join forces to counterattack, and then if the alliance wants to consolidate the results of the war and gain a foothold in Anzhou, it must win the support of the Great Wall, without a steady stream of grain and grass weapons, the alliance will not say defeat the enemy, and it will be difficult to stabilize Anzhou.

He also invited the officials who belonged to the Mukun Department to send a representative, and hurried to Yaoyangcheng, an important town of the Mukun Ministry, to persuade the surrender department and the Su Branch, even if he was unwilling to surrender for the time being, he was allowed to wait until the situation was clear before making a decision, but he must retreat to the Bashang Plateau, and do not continue to attack the alliance army, especially not to attack the grain and grass of the alliance army, otherwise they will have a mortal enemy, and the two sides will not die in a situation.

September 26, Upper Valley County.

When the Lord arrives in Upper Valley County, he is furious when he hears a series of announcements from local officials.
