In the evening of the same day, Zhang Yue led his troops into Baocheng County, and Murong Yanqing, the camp in the Baoshui River Valley, captured more than 1,000 people including Shu general Zhang Lingzhen, and sent someone to send a military report after keeping the grain and grass.

Murong Yanzhao also reported that he led his troops to take over the Nanzheng City Defense, and the officials such as the Puppet Shushan Nanxi Daojiedu Office and the Xingyuan Mansion Observation Judge were all withdrawn with Han Baozheng, so please lead the troops south as soon as possible to maintain order.
So, Zhang Yue held a military meeting overnight, arranged the aftermath, and left Luo Yanhuan to lead the three armies and Zhang Congzhao to lead the five armies to garrison Baocheng and contain prisoners of war. Early the next morning, Fu Zhaoji and Zhang Cheng were sent back to the Yongxing Military Mansion with good news, and they sent it to Tokyo. From Li Chuyun and Shi Guangjun to lead the second and fourth armies to Nanzheng.
Baocheng to Nanzheng more than 30 miles, the march is fast and half a day away. Murong Yanzhao heard the news and went out of the city to greet him, and sent people to guide Li Chuyun and Shi Guangjun to arrange for Han Zhongming of the Fourth Army to be stationed first, and welcome Zhang Yue and others to the state office.
"The Shu people will really enjoy it, this section of the Shuai Mansion is magnificent!" Zhang Yue walked around inside and out, and then returned to the lobby, and still asked Murong Yanzhao for the specific situation.
"That is, Han Baozheng has a comfortable life as an old man, and there are more than 20 young ladies who are waiting, General Zhang will bring a few to ...... later" Murong Yanzhao smiled warmly.
"Ahem...... To the meritorious soldiers! The war is not over yet, we have to finish the class as soon as possible and return to Beijing to talk about the specific situation. "Zhang Yue is not so hungry, besides, there is still a lot of business.
"It is said that this battle has gained a lot, not to mention the victory, a total of 18,000 troops of Han Baozheng were defeated. I don't know how to seize it on the battlefield, and there are more than 10,000 horses in the treasury of silk brocade! The granary is in the northeast corner, and I asked the guard that there were 6,000 stones, more than 700,000 catties! "This is an old man who has made a fortune, Murong Yanzhao smiled crookedly.
"Haha...... This is to raise soldiers, Xingyuan Mansion and Xingzhou are festival towns, and the troops must be reorganized, and they cannot be squandered indiscriminately. ”
Zhang Yue smiled and coped, and was already thinking about how to use this large amount of money and food. Previously, Fengzhou Huanghua Valley seized more than 200,000 stones of grain and grass, as well as tens of thousands of silk, silk, silk, and Shu brocade, which were all hard currency and could be sold for a lot of money. Zhang Yue has secretly divided half of it with Wang Jing, but he hasn't bothered to deal with it for the time being.
In the afternoon, Liu Xinfa, the general of the Zhen'an army stationed in Chenggu County, sent someone to deliver the news. Xiang Xun was stationed in Xingdao County, Yuanzhou on the evening of the 25th. Pet Fucheng was shocked when he heard the news, and abandoned Bing Shaohui's department to turn south to Zhenfu County.
Xiang Xun received a report and led the troops to follow up, and met with Bing Shaohui on the north bank of the Hanshui in Zhenfu County, and the two joined forces with a total of more than 7,000 people, which was already overwhelming the pet Fucheng.
The overall situation has been decided, Zhang Yue put his mind at ease, sent scouts to command Song Lingguang and Du Ximi with two eagles to the west to search for Han Baozheng's whereabouts, and reported the next day that Han Baozheng went out of Xixiang County, and met Li Tingqi's department on the way south to Lizhou, and distributed troops at the entrance of Panyuanling Jinniu Road in the north of Lizhou.
Subsequently, Zhang Yue sent troops to take over the Baijiao Pass in Xixian County, and at the same time, there was news sent by Wang Jing that 13,000 people of Li Tingqi, Gao Yanyu, and Lu Yanke had been defeated at Xingcheng Pass on the 25th, and the strategic task was successfully completed. After the victory at Xingchengguan, the general Zhang Jianxiong has led 3,000 troops to Jiezhou, and there will be news back soon.
On the last day of June, there was also a military report to the training department, and Fucheng, the commander of Wuding Festival in Yuanzhou, heard that the Shu army was defeated on all fronts, gave up Zhenfu County, led the officers and soldiers south to Yangyuan County, one hundred and twenty miles south of Zhenfu, and built a pass in the Yangshui River Valley of Micang Mountain and Daba Mountain to block the Zhou army from moving south.
At this point, the Western Expedition has won a complete victory, and the expected plan has been achieved, Zhang Yue's Kansai strategy has been preliminarily completed, and he has begun to look forward to the next step in his heart.
At the beginning of July, when the autumn harvest season came, Zhang Yue was busy restoring the operation of the government office, and the local officials who were originally in office ran back by themselves, but the officials of Shu Zhong were withdrawn with Han Baozheng, and many official positions were vacant, and the government government was facing a situation where no one was available.
The four counties under his rule ran away from the Xixiang County Order, and the other three counties all sent messengers to send a letter of loyalty to the Great Zhou, and Zhang Yue sorted these out and sent them to Tokyo to wait for the court to arrange. As long as the counties under his rule can maintain local governance, Zhang Yue will not bother to ask, and will instead start to reorganize the town army.
Xingzhou is Wang Tingyi's temporary garrison, Wang Jing has returned to Fengzhou to sit in the town, Zhang Jianxiong received Jiezhou and returned to Chengzhou to garrison the prevention and control affairs, so that Qin, Cheng, and Jiezhou Xiongwu Jiedu are temporarily handled by Zhang Jianxiong; Fengzhou and Huizhou were taken over by Wang Jing for the mighty festival; Xingzhou and Xingyuan Mansion are Shannan West Road, and Wang Tingyi also reported military and political preparations to this side, and Zhang Yue was temporarily in charge. As for Yuanzhou, it is natural that Xiang Xun and Bing Shaohui are in charge, and they will wait for the will of the court to make a decision.
The prisoners of war were escorted to Nanzheng by Luo Yanhuan, and all the town and township soldiers in the formation were also called, and the total number was still 12,000. Zhang Yue eliminated the old and weak, and tentatively set the official garrison of Xingyuan Mansion as a tooth army and a town army, with a total of 5,000 people.
As for the township soldiers, there was one commander in each county, a total of 2,000 people. The township soldiers only have a roster of soldiers, issued some shabby armor and weapons, and are generally responsible for transporting grain and grass supplies in wartime, and also concentrate on training during the slack season in peacetime.
Xingzhou is actually a military state, there are only three counties under its rule, Zhang Yue sent an order to Wang Tingyi, asking him to lay out two commanders of the town soldiers, two commands of the township soldiers, and four thousand soldiers are a bit too burdensome.
The town soldiers were reorganized, and the elite naturally supplemented the battle losses of the forbidden army. Of the more than 5,000 people laid off, Zhang Yue did not send them away, let Hao Tianying and Song Lingguang temporarily take the training, and then take them to Huizhou with their families, and the total number of Wang Jinghe and Xiang Xun's side was not less than 10,000, and even the family members may have tens of thousands.
For government affairs, Zhang Yue handed over to Feng Qianhou to supervise, and asked about it in his spare time, and most of the time he soaked in the barracks to train soldiers. In the afternoon of this day, Baocheng sent news that Zhang Quanxu came from Fengzhou with a caravan of more than 100 people and escorted Song Yaozhu, accompanied by Zan Jurun, the envoy of Xuanhui Beiyuan.
Zhang Yue was overjoyed when he heard the news, and took Yang Xuanli and a few other horsemen out of the city to greet him. Not long after, Zhang Quanxu led more than 100 people to drive more than 300 mules and horses, most of the mules and horses were empty, and only some of the grain and grass needed along the way were brought.
Take Fengzhou to pass through the Lianyun plank road, the cart is very difficult to transport goods, not as efficient as mules and horses, but the carriage carrying people is still feasible, but the steep slope on the road also needs people to push the cart.
"Congratulations to General Zhang for his strategic planning and victory! It's not easy to go all the way over the mountains and mountains, eat and drink, and fight in blood! Zan Jurun sat in the carriage, but as soon as he stopped here, he came down, stood in front of the carriage and bowed respectfully.
Zan Jurun was in his Chinese New Year's Eve, and entered the career in the later Jin Dynasty, and was known for his prudence and literary brilliance. In the early years of Guangshun, he was recommended to Guo Wei by Bai Wenke, but Guo Wei appreciated that he did not reuse him, but left him to Guo Rong. is also a person promoted by the first emperor, Zan Jurun has a natural sense of closeness to Zhang Yue.
"With Lao Zan Kelang presiding over the transfer of grain and grass, so that our army has no worries, this is a great contribution, and it is not easy!" Zhang Yue smiled and bowed slightly, and said, "Let's go to the state government and talk in detail later, let me meet my subordinates first?" ”
The envoy of the guest province is a special position set up because of the frequent wars, mainly responsible for diplomatic negotiations, the level is not high, and the six departments of the monk province are the same, but there is no formal rank, and the people of the time are generally called the guest lang. If it is an envoy of the Inner Guest Province, it is much higher, and it is the same level as the Honglu Temple, and it is an overlapping position.
"Haha...... General Zhang is polite, please! Zan Jurun smiled understandingly, he understood that Zhang Yue said that when he saw his subordinates, he actually wanted to see his woman, he had seen it on the road, and he was very surprised, but he didn't dare to think carefully.
"Meet the General! I don't know if there is a place for villains to serve in Xingyuan Mansion? Seeing that someone was greeting, Zhang Quanxu shouted to stop the team, turned over and dismounted and trotted over to greet him, and after thinking about it, he felt that it was inappropriate to talk about the right thing here, so he said: "Song Niangzi is in the carriage over there!" ”
"Oh...... Steward Zhang's hard work! Rest in the first city, come to the state tomorrow to see me, I haven't asked about the business for a long time. Zhang Yue nodded, turned over and dismounted and walked to the carriage parked next to him.
"Alang! The slaves are here! "The carriage is a small light carriage on the Shu Road, with only two pack horses, and four people can be seated in the carriage. Song Yaozhu heard the movement, opened the curtains and beckoned with a chuckle, looking a little excited.
Zhang Yue smiled, lifted the curtain on the bicycle and got in, opened his arms and hugged a bear, Song Yaozhu threw herself into his arms, and complained softly: "I thought you would write to others, but I didn't wait for the autumn water, and I waited for more than half a month when I arrived in Fengzhou......"
"If you don't want to come, it's useless to write letters, are your old subordinates okay? If I go to Huizhou, I can at least live in peace, and I won't treat them badly......" Zhang Yue said with a smile.
He also said...... They all respect me and stay away, they are all handed over to Zhou Lao, I don't want to care about their affairs in the future, I will be your little woman in the future, I heard that the two of them in the family have given birth, I will also give birth to a child for you, are you happy? Song Yaozhu looked lightly angry, raised her head and smiled shyly.
Zhang Yue smiled silently, lowered his head to kiss her cherry lips, and a pair of big hands were also restless and slid down her back. Xu felt that it was not comfortable to sit side by side, so he simply bowed down, picked her up and put her on his lap, and the two of them fit more closely.
The little maid's name is Huang Ying, her small mouth is wide open, her nose is slightly open, her breathing is short, she doesn't feel that her pretty face is flying two blushes, she feels a little hot, and she hurriedly raises her hands to cover her face and eyes, but her fingers are spread out, and she still sees everything.
Zhang Yue's big hand lifted the hem of his skirt and leaned in, Song Yaozhu felt the heat of his palm and was startled, hurriedly pressed his hand, gently pushed him away, and said with a low smile: "Don't ...... Like a hungry child, this is a carriage, there are many people outside, and you will be free to do so at night! ”
"Then I'll go down first, and I'll talk to you when I'm free!" Zhang Yue reluctantly let go of her, turned around and jumped out of the carriage. (To be continued.) )
