"General Yu is familiar with the generals of the Taining Army?"

This question is the key, Hou Chen also hopes that Yu Mingzhen can contact the generals of the Taining Army, this is also the second major event he came this time, the first major event is naturally to clarify Yu Mingzhen's intentions and ideas to serve Huaiyou, and the second thing is to plan Yanyun Prefecture.

"How do you look at this, I led the army north to fight a few battles with the Taining army, but it is said to be a war, but to be precise, it is to expel the occupation, the current situation of the Taining army, especially the troops stationed in Yizhou, are simply powerless, and have no intention of fighting, I expelled them and occupied the county seat, and they actually have nowhere to go, just wandering in the wilderness outside the city, and even directly and openly asked me for food, even I feel pitiful and ridiculous, the dignified Taining army, which was once a strong army in the Central Plains, has fallen to this, sad and pitiful。 ”

Yu Mingzhen's words were also full of emotion and unwillingness.

As far as an army is concerned, the biggest problem is the support in the later stage, and it is said that the army goes first before the grain and grass are moved, which shows the importance of logistical support; if the soldiers of an army cannot even eat enough, the military discipline, will to fight, and desire to fight that restrict combat effectiveness can be imagined, let alone daily training.

In fact, the Taining army has always been on the verge of bankruptcy, but it has been lucky to survive in the past few years, but this time, the Taining army has not survived, and the three consecutive years of drought have made the three prefectures of Yanyunyi, which were not in good conditions, suddenly become a purgatory on earth, and even the lives of ordinary gentry are unsustainable.

This is also the sadness of the Taining Army.

Zhu Mao is powerless to take care of it, except for his own most confidant of the Fourth Army, he can only let it go, whether it is going up the mountain for a gangster, going into the water for a bandit, or a troubled place, he can't take care of it.

"Oh, and such interesting things?" Hou Chen couldn't help laughing, but this was a good thing, the more difficult it was for the Taining armies, the easier it was to recruit, and when an army couldn't even fill the belly of the soldiers, its loyalty to the lord could be imagined.

"It's not such an interesting thing, but it happens over and over again. Yu Mingzhen shook his head, "So I suggest that Hou Zhi can contact the Taining Army in Yizhou and recruit them directly, they don't have too many requirements, just for food and clothing, and their army foundation is not weak, they only need a little rectification to restore combat effectiveness, the only thing that can be worried is the problem of military discipline, but as long as their logistics and food are guaranteed, I think these problems should be controlled and solved." ”

"At present, only the 1236th Army of the Taining Right Army is stationed in Yizhou, the 1st Army and the 6th Army are in Xintai, and the 2nd and 3rd Army are near Linyi, and the 5th Army of the Taining Left Army is in Fei County. ”

Without further ado, Hou Chen was not willing to delay for a day, the war was raging in Xuzhou, but Hou Chen believed that within a month at most, the battle of Xuzhou would come to an end, and he had to get these things done before the end of the battle of Xuzhou.

"The second army of the right army of Taining, the third army and the fifth army of the left army are close to this left, and it is easy to make a move, but the first army and the sixth army of Xintai are far away, and they have not been moved before, although they are also exhausted, but they are used to being arrogant, I am afraid that they will not obey the king's law, and Hou also needs to be cautious. Yu Ming really saw that the other party was so anxious, and he could understand the other party's thoughts, but out of consideration for the other party's safety, he also had to remind the other party: "On the Xintai side, you can accompany Hou Cheng on a trip." ”

"No, General Yu is sitting in Yizhou, and he can't leave lightly, please ask General Yu to arrange for one person to go with a certain road, and a certain person goes to Xintai and plans to go to Laiwu and Qianfeng. Hou Chen said with a smile: "If there are brothers under the general's command who are familiar with Hong Kui and Lang Kun, then it would be the best." ”

"Huh?" Yu Mingzhen was taken aback, "Hou Zhi is going to Yanzhou?"

"General Yu thinks there's something wrong?" asked Hou Chen in surprise.

"Well, that's not what it means, it's just that Hong Kui and Lang Kun are both wild and unbeatable, I'm afraid it's not easy to convince, there are also people who are familiar with each other among the subordinates of these two people, but if it is the southern parts of Yanzhou and Yunzhou, a certain is not very familiar, I don't know if Lu Qiming has also lost his sincerity to the king, if so, you might as well let Lu Qiming arrange people to go north to southern Yanzhou and Yunzhou, he is more familiar with the generals of the Taining Army here. ”

Yu Mingzhen's words made Hou Chen groan for a while, "General Yu, I don't know if General Lu is the same as the general, but according to the system, our Huaiyou does have contact with General Lu, but at that point, I don't know, but I will summon him back to Shouzhou and ask him to contact General Lu, I believe there will be a good result." ”

Yu Ming was really very efficient, or it could be said that the three armies of the Taining Army stationed near Linyi were already in a desperate situation, so when the invitation was issued, the general of the three armies soon came.

Regarding the attitude of Hou Chen and Yu Mingzhen, the three generals of the Taining Army did not have much resistance, and it could even be said that they were overjoyed.

It is not a secret that Huaiyou entered Xuzhou, Fu Li was under Huaiyou, as well as the attitudes of Lu Qiming and Yu Mingzhen directly affected the generals of these Taining Army, it can be said that the entire Huaibei and even Yanyun, the current food comes from Huaiyou, Huaiyou has become a real savior, without food, no matter how high the morale of the army can not survive.

According to Hou Chen's idea, it is necessary to say that the two armies stationed in Xintai will also join in, so that the remnants of more than 5,000 people can be obtained.

But in any case, after getting Hou Chen's assurance about their identity and status and the heavy supply of food and grass for these soldiers, these Taining soldiers were also relieved, this kind of life with a meal without a meal is too difficult, and if it goes on like this, no one needs to attack them, they themselves will all go their separate ways, either fall into the grass and become a coward, or they will be scattered in the wilderness.

The negotiations between Xintai and the First Army and the Sixth Army of the Taining Left Army were also going quite smoothly, and the two armies now had less than 2,000 men, and in Hou Chen's opinion, these two armies were almost no different from the begging army.

There are only a dozen horses left, and you must know that these two armies originally had a cavalry battalion each.

Regarding Hou Chen's proposal to reorganize the two armies, and the specific scale of the reorganization should be determined by the Huaiyou observation and disposal envoys, the generals of the two armies did not have much opinion, after all, there were less than 2,000 people left, and even one army was not enough, even if the officer system still existed, but it would take time to recover, and it would need money and food support.

On the evening of the second day of the seventh month, Jiang Feng led the First Army and the Tenth Army to advance into Xuzhou, and at this time, Pang Yuan's Liang Army was fighting a fierce battle with Lu Qiming's Reform Army, and the two armies of Zhuang Yongsheng's Department were also with Shang Yunxi's Zhao Yu Division, Shang Yunxi and Mei Kuan, and the Qin and Han armies were still in a state of anxiety.

After learning that Jiang Feng had entered the city, whether it was Shang Yunxi or Pang Yuan, or Lu Qiming, Mei Guo on the side of the Huaiyou Army, and even Shi Yu breathed a sigh of relief, this war of little significance could finally come to an end.

Pang Yuan didn't want to fight for a long time, but when he reached this point, he didn't dare to stop easily, otherwise it would be difficult for him to explain to the Bianjing Chongzheng Yuan, Shang Yunxi also didn't dare to stop, it was impossible for Pang Yuan's side to be in full swing, but his side was silent, then he really became a person inside and out, so this inexplicable war could not be stopped before the decisive big man came.

Now Jiang Feng has finally entered the city, and Li He is also rushing to Xuzhou day and night from Bianjing, he is taking the waterway, from Laoju Water to the Gubian River, it is said that he has passed Meng Zhuze.

Jiang Feng's entry into the city marks the official end of the Xuzhou war, although everyone has realized that Xuzhou fell into the right hand of Huai is irreversible, but as long as Jiang Feng has not arrived, everyone feels that this Xuzhou is not the Xuzhou of Huaiyou, but Jiang Feng has entered the city, then everyone should stop and fight for their own interests with their tongues.

Looking at the fire and smoke that were gradually extinguishing, Jiang Feng was also silent.

He didn't expect that he would come for a few days like this, and the city of Xuzhou would become like this, almost knocking out the dog's brain, and the two warring sides were still Lu Qiming and Pang Yuan's Liang army.

One of Lu Qiming's four armies was disabled, only one battalion remained, and the other army only had three armies left, and the Liang army also suffered a lot of losses, with the losses of both armies exceeding 1,000 people.

The duel between the Huaiyou Army and Shang Yunxi's side was not bad, Zhuang Yongsheng's two armies were only less than 2,000 people, and they suffered heavy losses, and the gap between his army and Shang Yunxi's elite was suddenly revealed;

However, in Jiang Feng's view, these could have been avoided, the overall situation has been decided, and everyone fights in order to compete for the limelight, which is indeed a bit absurd, but from the perspective of the commander, he can't say anything, and it is incumbent on him to defend the military prestige of the Huaiyou Army.
