Thanks to Zongyun's righteous army to recover Henan Mansion, the imperial court also benefited, they attacked Luoyang in Zongyun's righteous army, and copied the rear of the righteous army, and were able to occupy Tangzhou, but after the righteous army retreated to Xuzhou, Luoyang has been successfully recovered, and the imperial army's army wanted to capture Xuzhou, so it could only fight a tough battle with the righteous army.

Tangzhou was captured by Li Tingzhi with the army, and the main force of the righteous army was all placed in Luoyang at that time, and Zong Yun's ambition was not in the south, so there was not much conflict between the two sides, and it could almost be said that the righteous army ceded Tangzhou to the imperial court.

In Caizhou, Yingzhou, Sizhou and Chuzhou on the Huaibei line, almost all of them are such a routine, which is why the imperial court is a little bit wise.

It is not so much that the imperial court recovered Huaibei, but that Zong Yun ceded Huaibei to the imperial court, but after recovering Luoyang, he recovered all Henan Mansions, and then marched to Kaifeng Mansion.

The people of the court were still immersed in celebration, and the rebels had already packed up their belongings and fought desperately with the Mongols again.

Many people in the court suggested that they should take advantage of this opportunity to take Luoyang, after all, Kaifeng Mansion is the most important place besides Youzhou, whether it is strategic or political, the Mongols will never retreat easily.

Zhao Yun was also ambitious at that time, although this was very unrighteous and even a little despicable to the righteous army, but under the temptation of the miraculous feats of recovering the national capital, who could bear it?

Although the palace is in Lin'an, the Southern Song Dynasty court has never regarded Lin'an as the national capital, in their opinion, whether it was Luoyang in the past, or Lin'an now, it is just to accompany the capital, the real country is in Kaifeng Bianliang, and the imperial court has never changed this.

This also means that the imperial court has always hoped to recover Bianliang, but it is a pity that after so many years and the efforts of several generations of emperors, it has not been able to succeed after all.

After Li Tingzhi and Du Shu received the order to attack the rebel army, they were also very indignant in their hearts, but as military generals of the imperial court, all they could do was to obey the order, otherwise they would be beaten into Zongyun's comrades.

It's a pity that they underestimated the combat effectiveness of the righteous army too much, and even underestimated the city defense of Luoyang!

When the Jin people attacked Luoyang, they besieged it for a long time, how could this Xiongcheng, which was once the capital of the Tang Dynasty, be so easy to deal with!

When Zong Yun's rebel army regained Luoyang, almost not an inch of land in Luoyang was intact, which is enough to prove how tragic the battle was.

It is precisely because of this realization that after Zong Yun recovered Luoyang, in addition to appeasing the people and not committing any offenses with the people, the first thing he did was to move people to repair Luoyang's city defenses!

Before marching into Kaifeng Mansion, they had already repaired the city defenses and added a lot of fortifications in order to hold this fortress!

In Zong Yun's opinion, he can hand over areas like Tangzhou and even Caizhou to the imperial court, which can be regarded as showing his sincerity that he has no intention of making trouble in the south.

But a place like Luoyang will not be handed over to the imperial court, he can't let the imperial court sit back and enjoy its success without making any effort, whose life is not life, why let the righteous brothers charge on the front line, and exchange the lives of each person for the city, but give it to the imperial court?

If this is the case, what is the difference between it and surrendering to the imperial court? After these places are handed over to the imperial court, they will become places to display military merits, and they will soon be corrupted by the sluggish atmosphere, and where can they withstand the counterattack of the Mongols?

Zong Yun refused to back down, and the imperial court could only use force, but unfortunately they moved seventy or eighty thousand people and attacked for more than half a month, but Luoyang did not lose a single hair, but there were great casualties on the side of the imperial court!

Liu Han transferred 3,000 people from Henan Mansion, because the Mamluk mercenary group was following Zong Yun to attack the Fengfu, so he let the Viking Iron Bone Warrior as the vanguard, tearing apart the defense line of the imperial army from the flank, and instantly beating the imperial army through it!

Liu Han and the Viking Iron Bone are both demon-like existences, but those court soldiers have deceived themselves for too long, and they really think that they have taken down a large area of Huaibei, and they are proud to continue to compete for military merits.

As a result, Liu Han's 3,000 people taught them how to behave, and in the end they could only retreat to Tangzhou.

Although he failed to succeed, the recovery of most of Huaibei was enough to shine, and Li Tingzhi became the hottest general.

Of course, this is also when Yang Jing led the troops to the south, and Li Tingzhi was protected by Yang Jing, which allowed him to guard the north.

Li Tingzhi has also thought countless times that without Yang Jing's help, if it weren't for Yang Jing's contribution to An Fengjun at the beginning, he doesn't know when he would be able to survive with qualifications like him.

After retreating to Tangzhou, Li Tingzhi was also actively training, hoping to recover a larger territory one day, and practicing on the sand table has also become his daily priority.

At this time, he was deducing the sand table with Du Shu and others, but he hurriedly ran into a scout outside in a panic and reported to him.

"Master Zhizhi, something is wrong!"

Li Tingzhi uses Yang Jing's concept to train soldiers, everything is about rules, military discipline, scouts are the focus of training, thanks to this, their combat effectiveness is also rising in a straight line, scouts are even more one in a hundred, how can you ever be so panicked!

"Say!" Li Tingzhi interrupted the deduction a little unhappily, and whispered to the scout with an unpleasant face.

The scout clasped his fists and saluted, not daring to raise his head, and reported to Li Tingzhi.

"Most of the thief army in Xuzhou is gathering and marching towards the boundary of my Tangzhou territory!"

"What? Are these traitors crazy? They have just conquered Kaifeng Mansion, do they want to go back on their word and turn around and invade our two places?"

The generals in the battalion suddenly panicked, buzzing like headless flies, and many of them showed panic on their faces.

Li Tingzhi and Du Shu glanced at each other, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, no matter how they trained, what was the use of these generals if they couldn't support the wall in the mud?

However, they did not say it explicitly, but only asked the scout, "How many thieves are there?"

The scout was a little embarrassed, so he hesitated for a moment, and saw that Li Tingzhi's face was gloomy, so he hurriedly spoke.

"In order to seize the time to repay the military situation, the brothers have withdrawn to the Huaibei front... This one... Probably..."

Li Tingzhi couldn't help but be furious, and slapped it with one palm, and the entire sand table was shattered!

In the words of Yang Jing and Zong Yun, when the two armies fight, the scouts die first, and the task of the scouts is not only to collect enemy information, but also to defend against the enemy's first line of defense!

But the imperial court is really muddy and can't support the wall, and recovering most of Huaibei has not made them tougher, Xu was scared by Liu Han in Luoyang, and the scouts retreated when they saw the righteous army, even how many enemies there were, who led the troops, this basic military situation was not heard clearly!

Li Tingzhi was tolerant enough, but he couldn't bear such a thing, so he ordered his own soldiers.

"Come on! The left scout camp Yu Hou escaped from the battle, the supervision was not effective, and he beheaded me according to military law, and the rest of the scouts were not allowed to return to the camp, and if they didn't listen to the information clearly, they all cut me down!"

Li Tingzhi and Du Shu also complement each other, one sings white-faced, the other sings red-faced, usually cooperate to win people's hearts and improve morale, but it is also very effective.

But Du Shu didn't come out to be a good person this time, because he knew that Li Tingzhi was really angry, because even he himself was angry!

Although the imperial court has done enough to save face, to the point of being fake, as if these places were really won by them in a winning battle, but in the military, they have not changed the slightest!

Those disciples of the generals and the descendants of the nobles of the court, shaved their heads and squeezed here in Huaibei, and their bodies were hollowed out by the sound of dogs and horses, and they put on heavy armor, just to gild here, and after they went back, they could be used as capital for promotion, and they were not material for war at all.

While Li Tingzhi was training his troops, he also needed to have a fight with these people, and he also needed to deal with those princes and generals in the court who desperately wanted to stuff their families here.

It's also a shame that Du Shu is a person who is exquisite, otherwise with Li Tingzhi's temper, these people would have been driven out a long time ago.

A large number of gentlemen entered the army, and the atmosphere quickly corroded the slightly improved An Feng army, and it was also due to Li Tingzhi's strict management of the army, otherwise the army would have been useless.

He swallowed his anger for so long, but in exchange for such a result, even the scouts retreated, just ask how this army still fights!

No wonder that Yu Hou stumbled, no wonder he couldn't answer!

What is hateful is that those generals in the camp still want to intercede for that Marquis Yu, just because this Marquis Yu is the son of a royal prince and nobleman!

Li Tingzhi and Du Shu did not spare their hands this time, and after beheading the public, the other scouts finally knew that they were powerful, and they did not dare to retreat further, and at night, they presented the latest military information.

"Lord Zhizhi, there are about a thousand thieves who have invaded Tangzhou this time... However, what makes people wonder is that this army does not have a banner..."

"Not Zhang Zhenren's person?" Li Tingzhi may still pretend in front of others, but when there are only two people, he and Du Shu, he never calls the rebel army a thief army, nor does he turn Zong Yun and others into traitors, after all, they have also had a relationship, and they know that the ambition of the righteous army is by no means the Southern Song Dynasty court.

Regarding this, Yang Jing also explained to him that he believed in Yang Jing, and naturally believed in Zong Yun and the Yi Army.

"No, Lord Zhizhi misunderstood, although these people did not have a banner, they are all the elite of the thief army!"

"Although there are only a thousand people, the Taiyi Army, the Tired Victory Army, the Shenxing Flying Fu Battalion, as well as the Mamluk Mercenary Regiment and the Viking Red-Haired Ghost, all the strongest battalions among the rebels, have all drawn manpower to form this team of 1,000 people!"

The scout was also apprehensive, you know, in order to find out this information, the scout vanguard died a hundred, and almost all the details lurking in the rebel army were exposed, so he got the news of the day!

"All of them are drawn elites, what do they want to do?" Li Tingzhi also had some doubts in his heart, and asked the scout at this time.

"Who's leading the troops?"

The scout's face turned pale, and he replied to Li Tingzhi: "It's the thief chief Zhang Benling himself, as well as the fierce general Liu Han and others under his command, and even the leaders of red-haired ghosts like Hei Fan and Leviathan are also inside!"

"It's all down, what are they going to do!" Li Tingzhi and Du Shu glanced at each other, and finally couldn't sit still!

Seeing that Li Tingzhi was furious, the scout didn't dare to continue, took out a spotless letter from his bosom with body temperature, and said to Li Tingzhi.

"It's... This is a handwritten letter from the Thief Chief to Lord Tsubicho..."

Since the imperial army attacked the defenders of Luoyang, the two sides have not been in contact, and in the past, Zong Yun would privately exchange information with Li Tingzhi and Du Shu, but after this incident, this connection was completely broken.

Because Zong Yun already knew that the army of the imperial court would not help them in their great cause of expelling the Mongols, and could only drag them back, and such allies should not be wanted.

And this letter, but the first contact after the Luoyang sneak attack, it was Zong Yun who took the initiative to deliver the letter, what did they want to do?

If Li Tingzhi and Du Shu were ruthless, mobilized all the soldiers and horses, and surrounded and killed these thousand people, wouldn't the righteous army be completely finished!
