Just when Yuan Huaihe was sighing secretly on the city wall, Liu Yansi, who had already attacked from Yucheng, was commanding the army to advance eastward with high spirits.

The Ziqing Army is the most priority in the Xuzhou Military Town, and without him, the Ziqing Army has acted as a pioneer from the beginning.

After the battle with the Caizhou army, the Ziqing army was once again given priority protection, from the replenishment of soldiers to the supply of ordnance and materials, it was replenished as soon as possible, Jiang Feng fully fulfilled his promise at this point, which also made Liu Yansi, the general of Ganping Lu, extremely satisfied.

Now that the war has kicked off again, for Liu Yansi and them, this is the best stage to show the combat effectiveness of the Lao Pinglu Army, especially the enrichment of a large number of magic troops and magic equipment, which makes Liu Yansi full of confidence.

A group of generals under his command have already clamored for the Caizhou army to be completely subdued in the battle of Songcheng, so that they will flee when they see the Xuzhou army.

Although Liu Yansi is not as arrogant as the group of boys under his command, he also thinks that in the current situation, taking Song Cheng and defeating the Caizhou army is only a matter of time and how big the losses of his own side are.

Especially when he learned that in order to ensure that Song City was taken in one fell swoop, the county king sent the Heshuo army, which was originally used to go north to Heshuo, to the south and attack Song City with the Ziqing army, Liu Yansi felt that the county king seemed to be a little too cautious.

Of course, the king of the county also explained in his letter why he did this, that is, to go down in one go, and to achieve this goal within the scope of minimal losses, because the capture of Song City is only the first step, and there will be successive battles in the future, which will be a battle to destroy Caizhou.

After learning the news, Liu Yansi was really enthusiastic, which also means that the king of the county has changed his previous strategy of seeking Heshuo first, and must first completely solve the problem of Caizhou's henchman.

This is too beneficial for the Ziqing Army.

Go north to Heshuo Raiders, that is the Heshuo Army and the Pinglu Army singing the leading role, and destroy Caizhou to seize the Central Plains, the Ziqing Army and the Wuning Army will be the well-deserved main forces, which also means that the county king is going to give a lot of credit to the original Lao Pinglu Army This is a great opportunity for the generals including him Liu Yansi, Wang Shouxin, Wang Guoxi, Wang Guoqing, and Pinglu.

Liu Yansi also has his own news channels, and the families of the generals who were exiled to Xuzhou by Daliang are no longer willing to be lonely, and in just a few months, they have already proposed to the king of the county to join the Xuzhou army and participate in the war against Caizhou and the Shatuo people.

For Liu Yansi, this is understandable, but it is unacceptable, the Pinglu generals finally got such an opportunity, how could they let these generals take the lead?

Fortunately, the king of the county did not immediately put these Liang generals to use, and even if they were used, they were still placed in the position of some deputies, far less than using them as freely as they did for Yuan Pinglu, Taining and the probation army, which also made the hearts of these people, including Liu Yansi, Yu Mingzhen, and Zhu Mao, a little more relaxed, at least the generals who were the first to belong to the county king, had a higher degree of trust in the eyes of the county king.

But this can be regarded as a wake-up call for these people, if they can't prove themselves, then those big beams will definitely be clamoring in the back, which is absolutely unacceptable to them.

Therefore, the battle of Song Cheng will be a weather vane, there are already many generals of the Great Liang in the Heshuo army, although they have not yet occupied the mainstream, but once they are allowed to gain power, it will definitely make the generals of the Great Liang Dynasty rise greatly, especially behind them There are also those generals from the Liang Department as Olympic aid.

Now the Heshuo army is led by Shang Yunxi and Zhu Mi, although they are the main generals, but some of the army commanders and deputy envoys below are already serving as the generals of the Great Liang, in the battle of Songcheng, if the Ziqing army can not show the strength and momentum of overwhelming the other party, I am afraid that it will make the county king have some subtle influence on the use of the future generals of the Great Liang, which Wang Shouxin and Zhu Mao both wrote to Liu Yansi mentioned.

Liu Yansi estimated that Zhu Mao should also send a letter to Zhu Mi, but the effect may not be good.

First, the Heshuo army is Shang Yunxi as the commander-in-chief, and Zhu Mi is the deputy marshal, and Zhu Mi may not have much say in the army; second, Shang Yunxi has always been at odds with Lu Qiming and Yu Mingzhen, who also belong to the old probation army, and it is impossible for Lu Qiming and Yu Mingzhen to send a letter to Shang Yunxi; third, this is the first battle of the Heshuo army, which is related to the impression of the county king on the Heshuo army. Zhu Mi and the Heshuo army have become a community of interests, so no matter what factors in the outside world can affect their determination to fight this battle, as long as it is conducive to the Heshuo army's combat power, Shang Yunxi and Zhu Mi will not use it, so at this point, Shang Yunxi and Zhu Mi will definitely fight for the interests of the Heshuo army.

As the scale of the Xuzhou army grows larger and larger, the interests of various small groups are constantly being disrupted, and at the same time, they are also being divided and reorganized.

As the Pinglu Army enters Heshuo, it is estimated that some of the subordinate armies of the Chengde Army will join the Pinglu Army, and a system headed by Lu Qiming will slowly take shape.

At this point, Liu Yansi also had to admire the courage and means of the county king, no suspicion is used, no suspicion is used, this point is fully reflected in the county king.

"Governor!" the new deputy governor Zhang Junyue urged the horse to catch up.

Chai Yong had already begun to form Huaizuo Town, and Zhang Junyue took over as deputy governor.

Zhang Junyue and Zhu Mi were both teaching in the Wubei Academy before, and they had not been released, but this time they were finally released, and they were directly placed next to Liu Yansi, which is said to have caused an uproar in the Privy Council.

The senior generals of the Wuning Army and the Ziqing Army are basically based on the generals of the original Laoping Lu Ziqing Army, and according to the convention, the chief and deputy governors generally do not come from the same system, of course, Tianping Town is an exception.

The Privy Council originally suggested that Ding Man, the deputy governor of the Yajun Army, be transferred to the deputy governor of the Ziqing Army and let Zhang Junyue be the deputy governor of the Yaqing Army, but in the end Jiang Feng vetoed this opinion and still insisted on arranging Zhang Junyue to sit as Liu Yansi's deputy.

Liu Yansi and Zhang Junyue are also old acquaintances, and they also know their roots in the Pinglu Army, and this time the two joined forces, which is even more tacit and complementary, which is also Liu Yansi's confidence that he can defeat the Caizhou Army.

"LaCrosse, how's the situation?"

"Very good, I have checked and tried them one by one, and I have to admit that the magic equipment of our Xuzhou Army is many times stronger than our original Pinglu Army magic equipment, I believe that even Bianliang or Chang'an can only turn into a piece of rubble in front of such magic equipment!" Zhang Junyue was extremely excited.

Zhang Junyue was still teaching in the martial arts academy when he had heard that the official academy of magic materials was producing all kinds of magic equipment in large quantities, at that time he was still a little disapproving, magic equipment has always existed, but one is uncertain in size, it is difficult to form; second, the quality is worrisome, uneven; third, it is troublesome to use, it is difficult to form combat effectiveness, and it can still play a role in small fights or relying on the city to defend it, but it still needs to be tested if it is to be used in field warfare and siege warfare on a large scale.

But this time, Liu Yansi arranged it to accept the magic equipment, and by the way, it really opened his eyes.

The key is that these instruments are large in scale, consistent in size, and skilled in operation, easy to use, and can be organized to launch an attack in a very short time, far beyond his imagination.

"Hehe, I didn't believe it either, but I saw it with my own eyes, and you can't believe it. Liu Yansi wiped his chin, "Has the cavalry been pulled?"

"It has been arranged to take the first step, but I guess that the Caizhou army may not have the courage to go out of the city to meet the attack, even if there is, it is just a small elite attack, and it is difficult to stop the advance of our army. Zhang Junyue was very confident, "The army stationed in Song City is less than 20,000 people, to be precise, it is five armies, well, maybe Yuan Huaihe still has some dragon bird tail guards, no more than 300 people, so their armies are at most 18,000 people, and we plus the Heshuo army is 65,000 people, and the king of the county will personally lead the tooth army of the four armies as our reserves, it seems that the king of the county is really going to go down with a drum." ”

"Junyue, you don't know, the king of the county has been patient with Caizhou for a long time, starting from the king of the county, in Guangzhou, in Huzhou, well, at that time, it was still solid, the Yuan family has repeatedly made it difficult for the king of the county, the king of the county has been tolerating for the sake of the overall situation, and even turned to the east to develop, when he took Xuzhou, Caizhou came to take advantage of the fire to rob, and when he recovered Pinglu, he was also full of tricks, until the battle for Songzhou, the king of the county endured. A weird smile appeared on the corner of Liu Yansi's mouth, "Forbearance is to take into account the overall situation, it doesn't mean that the county king has no resentment in his heart, now that the opportunity is ripe, do you think the county king will let the Yuan family go?"

"Yes, the king of the county has no longer led the army to march in person, and this time he actually led the tooth army to suppress the formation, hehe, this is also an opportunity for our Ziqing army. Zhang Junyue took a deep breath, "At that time, please allow the governor to personally lead the army to the city!"

Liu Yansi can understand Zhang Junyue's feelings, he has been suppressed in the martial arts academy for so long, and finally got such an opportunity, Zhang Junyue can't stay anymore, he needs a war to prove himself.

Nodding slightly, Liu Yansi said: "Junyue, don't worry, this battle has to be fought, don't talk about you, I want to go to the city in person, I guess Shang Yunxi and Zhu Mi in the north also think so, we all need this battle to prove ourselves." ”

Zhang Junyue raised his head and exhaled, "When a certain person left the Martial Arts Academy, Zhou Wang, Shi Yan, Yang Houde, He Guochang and others had already entered the Martial Arts Academy, according to the convention, they will also return to the army after serving as teachers in the Martial Arts Academy for a period of time, Governor, time is not waiting!"
