When the news of Yang Xutang's occupation of the four southeastern states reached Luodu this winter, it shook the imperial court.

Originally, Wu Jianzhang was killed, Wu He fled back to Luodu with his mother Mu, crying and complaining to Emperor Feng, begging Emperor Feng to lead troops to recapture Xuanzhou.

Emperor Feng convened his ministers to discuss, and when he couldn't make a decision, information came from the southeast again, saying that Yang Yuanchu was dead, and several warlords were fighting at this time.

Feng Emperor Wang Xing was also a warlord, he wanted to wait for Xie Chong and Zhang Quan to kill them first, and when one side couldn't stand it, he would naturally send troops to ask the court for help. When the time comes, he will strike again and clean up these people together.

What he didn't expect was that one winter, Yang Xutang was actually pacified by the four southeastern states.

When Wu He got the news, he made a ruthless announcement, and he had already seen Yang Xutang's wolf ambition, if he didn't get rid of it now, he would definitely rebel against the court and threaten the emperor's respect.

Needless to say, Emperor Feng also thought of this layer.

But it was winter, and it was freezing cold, and this was not the best time to send troops.

At this time, a minister proposed that King An Lun of Lu lead his troops to attack Xuanzhou.

King An Lun of Lu has been plagued by rebels in recent years, and after Chen Guang's death, although his brother Chen Wen's strength has weakened a lot, he is still very fierce.

After Chen Wen fled back to Lu from Xuanhe Erzhou, he was attacked by the Lu army and stubbornly survived. Not only that, but he quickly colluded with Sha Tuo, not only to get respite, but also to gradually grow stronger.

King Lu went to the table many times and asked the court to increase troops to destroy the Chen thief, but the increase in troops from the court was delayed.

An Lun was full of complaints, and when he received the emperor's holy decree to attack Xuanzhou, he was extremely dissatisfied, so although he accepted the holy decree, he delayed and did not do it.

This gave the four southeastern states a chance to breathe.

Yang Sutang ordered Lin Guanqi, Gao Xuan, and Yang Suming to do active defense, and the most important thing is to assist the people in spring ploughing.

After the beginning of spring, Yang Xutang took Song Xingzhi and personally went to the field to take a group of soldiers and civilians to open up wasteland and farm.

Zhang Laohu felt strange, at this time, it was not good to train the troops and take the lead in farming, Yang Xutang was really so confident that the imperial court would not send troops?

However, King Lu Anlun really did not send troops. The court urged three times and four times, and he found a bunch of excuses to drag it.

It's been April so late, and King Lu hasn't moved yet.

Zhang Laohu once had a drink with Song Xingzhi, and he couldn't help but say: "My father has long said that the current court is a useless court. ”

Xingzhi smiled: "Sister just wants to fight!" ”

Of course Zhang Laohu wants to fight, she is a general who surrenders to Cheng, if she can't make a contribution, how can she establish prestige in the Yang family's army.

"Sister, don't worry, the teacher said that if An Lun doesn't send troops again, the soldiers of the imperial court will definitely arrive." Song Xingzhi said again.

Zhang Laohu didn't know much about Yang Xutang at first, he looked like a white-faced scholar at a glance. A scholar leading a group of generals, and even hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, to become the lord of the southeast, isn't it too high?

However, in a few months, Yang Xutang made an appointment with the three armies of France, and the most important one of them was that the people must not be touched.

Last month, there were two other cases of civilian-military disputes, in which a regimental general drunkenly took a woman from a good family.

This kind of thing is very common.

Without saying a word, Yang Xutang executed the regimental general in the city square, and strictly ordered military law, if there is a violator, he will not be spared.

After such a harsh handling of several cases, the people became more and more convinced of the new master, and the three armies did not dare to commit crimes easily.

Zhang Laohu thought at that time that there was still a set of literati governing the army and governing the country, and he gradually submitted to Yang Xutang.
