At the same time, Gao Jian also opened the door of convenience in Yangzhou, allowing Wang Sancheng, under Gao Huaiyuan, to buy a large amount of grain in Yangzhou and transfer it to Haizhou, to support the Flying Tiger Army through the current difficulties, and turn a blind eye, and they hired ships to transfer these grains at the Yangzhou wharf, which is equivalent to letting Gao Huaiyuan carry out grain smuggling activities, and the official does not care, their father and son jointly engaged in favoritism and fraud.

In addition, Gao Jian also told Gao Huaiyuan one thing, this matter and Gao Huaiyuan also have a lot of origins, it turned out that Yangzhou was newly appointed to a general judgment and became Gao Jian's adjutant, this person is Zhao Fan, the second son of Zhao Fang, Gao Huaiyuan's Enfu, and Zhao Fan and Gao Huaiyuan are also familiar with each other, the two have met when they were in Xiangyang before, and Gao Huaiyuan later left Xiangyang and returned to Daye County as a county lieutenant, he had visited Zhao Fang's mansion many times, so he was very familiar with Zhao Fang's two sons Zhao Kui and Zhao Fan, and later when Zhao Fang died, Gao Huaiyuan's relatives went to Ezhou to worship, and Zhao Fan had a good impression of Gao Huaiyuan.

If this is not the case, Zhao Fan may not be allowed by Gao Jian to open the door for Gao Huaiyuan in Yangzhou, after hearing that these are Gao Huaiyuan's friends' deals, Zhao Fan will ignore what Gao Jian did, and because of Gao Huaiyuan's relationship, Gao Jian and Zhao Fan get along quite harmoniously, which is difficult to see in the general state capital.

Therefore, after Gao Huaiyuan learned about this, he accepted Zhao Fan's feelings very much, and wrote a special letter to Zhao Fan to contact his feelings.

Moreover, after the food and salary turmoil some time ago, the imperial court began to fulfill its original promise as promised, and batches of grain and salary also began to be transferred to the north and west of the country by land and water, which greatly alleviated the demand for food and salary of Peng Yibin and Fu Daquan's two armies, at least it played a big role in their persistence in the long-term war of resistance.

What made Gao Huaiyuan happiest was that the battle of Haizhou finally had a good result, Fu Daquan and others gathered heavy troops and stationed in Haizhou City, relying on Haizhou City, defending the city, under Haizhou City, and Li Fu, Liu Qingfu's Li Quanjun fought a big battle, the Flying Tiger Army was surrounding their own victory at this time, and Li Quanjun was working for others, and morale was naturally not the same, even if Li Quan's army was more general, but the siege of the city has been ineffective, but under the desperate counterattack of the Flying Tiger Army and the town defenders, The losses were heavy, and the attack lasted for several days, so the initial sharpness was lost.

So after Fu Daquan and Zhou Jun and Liu Chengyi discussed, the elite soldiers and horses went out of the city to pick up the weak points of Li Quan's army and launched a large-scale counterattack, the result was that Li Fu and Liu Qingfu were exploited by the Flying Tiger Army because of poor cooperation in World War I, so that Li Quanjun was defeated and fled, and the 70,000 army not only did not take Haizhou City, but was annihilated nearly half of the soldiers and horses, and ran back that is, about half, if it wasn't for Li Fu's fast running, he almost became a prisoner of the Flying Tiger Army again.

Fu Daquan and others did not kill the prisoners, but gathered the captives together, telling them that if they wanted to stay with the Flying Tiger Army, they welcomed those who did not want to fight again, and the Flying Tiger Army would allocate them land to cultivate to ensure that they were not discriminated against and abused, and if anyone wanted to go back to follow Li Quangan, it would not be difficult for them to let them return to Li Quan on their own.

As a result, most of the captives chose to stay in Haizhou and follow the Flying Tiger Army, and some of them chose to work in agriculture, unwilling to continue fighting and killing like this, and also gave them land for resettlement, and only a small number of officials in Li Quan's army, fearing that they would be excluded and discriminated against in the future, chose to go back to Li Quan, and were also released back.

After Liu Qingfu and Li Fu ran back to Chuzhou, they were all aggrieved when they saw Li Quan, blaming the other party for the reason for this defeat, accusing the other party of not cooperating and cooperating, which led to this defeat.

After this defeat, Li Quan also became honest and had to reorganize his troops and horses, and in a short period of time, he no longer dared to send troops to attack the Flying Tiger Army in the Haizhou area.

After the Flying Tiger Army won this battle, the morale of the soldiers and civilians in the jurisdiction rose greatly, and they could finally raise their eyebrows and have the ability to confront Li Quan head-on, which also means that they have completely gained a firm foothold in the Jingdong Road area, and since then they have firmly controlled Haizhou, Juzhou and Laiwu.

After the news of the victory of this battle reached Gao Huaiyuan, Gao Huaiyuan was really happy, and secretly discussed with Jia Qi and other staff officers about the next step Fu Daquan and their plan of action, so he made the decision to send troops to help Peng Yibin.

Gao Huaiyuan ordered Liu Chengyi to garrison Haizhou, Fu Daquan led his troops to Tai'an Prefecture to help Peng Yibin fight against the Jin army, while Zhou Jun led a group of newly formed soldiers and horses to Mizhou, subdued some scattered rebel forces near Mizhou into the Flying Tiger Army, and cleared the remnants of Li Quan's old troops in the Mizhou area, waiting for the opportunity to prepare to attack the remnants of Li Quan entrenched in the Laizhou area, in order to gain a larger area of jurisdiction, and at the same time ordered them to seize the local winter farming, expand and restore farmland as much as possible, and restore the economy within the jurisdiction.

At this time, the edict on Gao Huaiyuan's appointment was also issued to Gao Huaiyuan, and several people who participated in the competition for this position heard it, so they were all frustrated, and the money was not spent, but the thing was not done, and in the end, a guy with the least qualifications won the unified position of the Holy Protector Army, so these people secretly scolded Gao Huaiyuan for being a villain who was speculative and drilling, but Mingli didn't dare to have any opinions, and pretended to be generous to congratulate Gao Huaiyuan.

Gao Huaiyuan's heart is happy, it is really an unimaginable good thing, it actually fell on the top of his brain, you must know that he has been in Lin'an City for about a year, but he has been promoted several levels, from the beginning of a small Yiwangfu servant, first killed Xiao Liang, became the head of the Yiwangfu guard, and then succeeded Fu Tong after the year, became the direct commander of the imperial dragon, and now he actually became the commander of the palace in front of the holy army, the speed of this promotion can also be called the speed of the rocket.

No wonder some people scolded him for being a villain who was a speculative camp, if this kind of thing was put on him, he would still scold people, so Gao Huaiyuan was very clear about his current situation, and knew that this time he went to the Holy Protector Army, I am afraid that there will be some troubles waiting for him.

But Gao Huaiyuan wasn't too worried about this, after all, there was a huge tree standing behind him, and he also had the Shang Fang Sword given to him by Shi Miyuan, afraid that they would be birds!

Therefore, after Gao Huaiyuan received the edict of appointment, he held a feast in the drunken immortal building, celebrated well, invited many powerful people in Beijing over, and drank a good meal.

Even Shi Miyuan, who was not very high-profile, also sent his cronies Li Zhixiao, Xue Ji and others to the Drunken Immortal Building for a banquet, which was specially to give Gao Huaiyuan face, and his posture let people know that Gao Huaiyuan was the person he supported, so many officials also smelled this smell, and they didn't dare to underestimate Gao Huaiyuan.

And Gao Huaiyuan did not forget to follow Guicheng, and ran to Ciyuan Hall to thank Empress Yang, after Empress Yang learned that Gao Huaiyuan was promoted to the commander of the Holy Protector Army, she smiled and said a few words of encouragement to Gao Huaiyuan, which was nothing more than some words to Gao Huaiyuan to do things well and serve the court, Gao Huaiyuan naturally received them one by one, saying that he would definitely be loyal to the royal Yunyun, and then withdrew from the palace.

"Gao Dutong! It seems that Ben Hou will change his mind in the future! This time, you finally got your wish and became the commander of the Holy Protector Army, and I am afraid that it will not be as convenient as before for you and me to meet in the future! You, the lord of Dutong, no matter what, you can't stay in Yiwangfu every day to study with me! I really don't know if to be happy or unhappy! After leaving the palace, on the way back to the Yiwang Mansion, Guicheng said to Gao Huaiyuan.

Gao Huaiyuan replied with a smile: "This time I was promoted to the commander of the Holy Protector Army, and I would like to thank the county marquis for his help!" Don't worry, even if I become this commander, I will often visit you in the palace! What's more, Xia Guan has not left the capital, if you want to see Xia Guan, as long as the county marquis asks the people below to send me a letter, Xia Guan will naturally run to see you immediately! If the prince really doesn't want me to leave the palace, how about I resign and go back to the palace on an errand? He said to Guicheng with some half-jokingness.

Gui Cheng hurriedly waved his hand and smiled: "No need!" It's too late for me to be happy that you can be promoted! You're right, even though you're the commander of the Holy Protector Army, aren't you still in charge of the palace guards? It won't affect the affection of you and my brother! When I want to see you, I can send someone to greet you! But you have to arrange for me to be the head of the palace guard, don't leave me a rough person to make me angry!" ”

Gao Huaiyuan immediately smiled and said: "Please rest assured about this matter, I have already arranged for the head of the palace guards, An Jie will take over from me and stay by your side to do things, he is a guard you admire, and he is very close to you, whether it is kung fu or people, I can rest assured, and I am also very loyal to the county marquis, and I can tell the county marquis that An Jie is his own person, if the county marquis has something, even if he leaves it to him, nothing will go wrong!" I wonder if you are satisfied with my arrangement of the marquis? ”

Guicheng was satisfied, nodded and said, "What you said about An Jie!" Ok Ok! This guy is about the same age as me, and he is indeed very sensible, and I will be relieved if you let him take over your position as the manager! You can now rest assured that you will go to the Holy Protector Army to take up your duties, and don't forget to come back to the palace every once in a while to visit me! ”

After being busy with these things, Gao Huaiyuan finally took a group of subordinates from Yulong Zhi, and drove to the camp of the Holy Protector Army in a mighty way, and began to complete the "sacred" duty given to him by Shi Miyuan.
