At this time, it was already early in the morning, and there was a noisy chirping of birds outside, but Xie Yan was silent for a long time.

In the past, Xie Yan didn't even ask about these fugitive slaves, and naturally the following people dealt with it, but when he came back at this time, he encountered this incident, which made his heart tumble, and at this time, he just couldn't say how sad it was.

"Yang Qi, Yang Qi, I really can't imagine that the old man will be defeated by a thief like you......"

Sitting behind the table, the heat in his heart gradually extinguished, and he felt distant fear in his heart, now that people's hearts are so fluctuating, if Yang Qi is attacking the city at this moment, can the soldiers who have lost their courage still resist?

Even if you resist, how many days will it last?

What scared him was that the giant catapult had not yet appeared, so how would he resist it?

He is already old, if he insists on disobeying at this time, what will happen to the Xie family?

There is also his own son, there is already one person who is unknown outside, and the other sons, except for Xie Xuan, are not talented, thinking of this, the flame in his eyes was completely extinguished, and he sighed: "Someone!" ”

Outside the study, the soldiers and attendants were standing in place all the time.

Seeing that the city lord was overthinking, someone wanted to persuade the steward to rest, but at this time, suddenly he heard a summons, and the people below came in in response.

Xie Yan saw someone coming in, and said calmly: "You go and summon Xie Zhizhi to see me immediately." ”

As for how the housekeeper dealt with the slave's defection, Xie Yan had no intention of paying attention to it.

Hearing this, he went out immediately, it was already early in the morning, the sky was just shining, and this Xie Zhizhi must have gotten up.

Sure enough, there wasn't much time, and Xie Zhizhi came: "Big brother, you call me?" ”

Xie Yan said in a heavy tone: "The others go out, cousin, you come here." ”

Xie Zhizhi walked a few steps forward, approached Xie Yan, and listened to Xie Yan say: "You have made great achievements many times, but unfortunately I can't give you anything now." ”

Xie Zhizhi saw that Xie Yan's expression was sincere, but he had the demeanor of a hero, his heart trembled, tears burst out of his eyes, and he choked up and said: "Dudu, you are promoted to me, this is the duty of a courtier, what reward do you want?" ”

"Alas! Danger Meets Loyal Ministers...... I don't need to mention this matter anymore, I want to ask you, what do you think of Yang Qi from Ansan County? How about this time? ”

"Yes, the Governor has the ambition to seize Yanchuan County and even the world?"

“…… World, I really haven't thought about it, what do you want to say? Let's just say it. ”

"Yes, with all due respect, the governor divided one side, and naturally in order to protect the ancestral inheritance, the Xie dynasty was re-established. But now this situation is already difficult to achieve, Du Du, think about it, since you don't want to seize the world, then for the sake of your descendants, you just need to keep the foundation of the Xie family, right? ”

"Oh?" Xie Yan immediately understood the meaning, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but sigh deeply.

"Yes, my subordinates are thinking, now that the empire is in the twilight of its life, rebellions are everywhere, it is the hero who divides the party, since it is no longer safe, then take refuge in the Ming Lord, the governor, and the one who is early from the dragon is not only the official of a city?" Xie Zhizhi was about to continue, but saw Xie Yan stand up, waved his hand, and stopped.

Xie Yan sighed: "That's a good point, but Yang Qi is the master?" ”

"Even if he may not be able to capture it, at least he can occupy Yanchuan County, he is old, as long as he is defeated, he is afraid that his death will not be far away, once he dies, who can fight against Yang Qi? The governor has surrendered, and the six prefectures of Yanchuan are always indispensable for the governor to be a general or a taishou position. ”

When Xie Yan heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked and felt that it made sense.

I only heard Xie Zhizhi say again: "Now return to Yang Qi, at least the Xie family can be preserved, to put it mildly, if he is really the master, why should the governor worry about the high-ranking officials, if not, with the influence of the governor in Yanchuan County, Yang Qi's foundation in this place is extremely weak, and he may not be able to oppose the guest." ”

After Xie Yan listened, his eyes lit up, and he said: "Cousin is really insightful, early tomorrow morning, I will go out to Xiancheng, look at this Yang Qi, how to treat me!" ”

Yang Qi was overjoyed to get the news of Xie Yan's surrender, and with the help of the Xie family, a local family, Yang Qi could completely gain a foothold in Yanchuan County.

Half a day later, the streets of the city were cleaned, the gates of Longge City were opened, and the army entered, controlling the entire fortress, and was busy repairing the fortress at the moment.

Three days later, all the corpses of the battle have been buried, at this time, Jiang Feng with the strength of two guards, or threat or strong attack, actually said that he had surrendered to the surrounding counties, and when he arrived at Lingzhou Mansion, he first broke through the three counties, and when he arrived in front of the city, he had already recruited 5,000 soldiers, up to 15,000 people.

After another five days, Li Wu's elite troops all the way broke like a bamboo, and easily pacified Dongchuan Mansion, and the city wanted to resist, but Li Wu pulled out the return cannon, and the other party immediately left the city and surrendered.

The appointment of the governors of the prefectures and the two prefectures was almost the same as before, except that the rebels accepted the military power of the two prefectures.

There was a large army of rebels who did not move, and by this time, the two provinces were basically pacified, and the situation in the Shangchuan area had stabilized.

At this time, Yang Qi had time to take a breath and sit on a three-story restaurant in Longcheng Pavilion, eating delicious food and wine.

I heard someone next to me whispering: "Just tell me something, I heard that Du Junshou is about to die." ”

"It's not quite good, I heard that I can't stand up anymore, I lie down and refuse to breathe, there is already a mess below, and they are all competing for the position!"

"I'm afraid that everyone else will be cheaper." Someone said disdainfully.

"Speaking of which, I heard that the imperial court issued a document to the surrounding counties to crusade against Yang Dashuai?"

"The Imperial Court? Hmph, what's the use of the center of the court now, now that the empire is in turmoil, anyone can see that the court has nothing to do with Yanchuan County, what is the use of this confiscation!. ”

"Shhhh Some people feel uneasy, although the empire is declining, but ordinary people still dare not speak ill of the court.

Yang Qi couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

Breaking through the famous fortress of the empire, and capturing Lingzhou and Dongchuan, it did not cause much damage, and everything quickly regained its vitality.

Xie Yan and the others, who are experienced veteran officials, already have talents in governing the territory, and they are even more dedicated at this time.

In less than half a month, including Longcheng Pavilion, the two prefectures have been pacified, and it cannot be said that they live and work in peace and contentment, but the peaceful scene is not inferior to that before the war.

The battle of Yanchuan County was of course rumored to the central capital of the empire.

Wei Wendao was silent after hearing this, and finally got the news, but it was the little emperor.

The emperor was very helpless about the deliberate concealment of this matter by the court, and only ordered an order to reprimand the county guard of Yanchuan County, and strictly ordered him to immediately quell the rebellion and rebels, and then returned to the court and continued to enjoy himself.

But this will arrived in Yandu City, the county capital, and Du Ying delayed it for a few days under the pretext of illness, and then it seemed to sink into the sea, and Yandu City was silent
