When Zhu Youyu fell ill, Shi Shucong was confronting Yang Chongben's army at the foot of Meridian Mountain.

For Shi Shucong, his feint between Fangzhou and Ningzhou played a role in containing Yang Chongben's troops, who made Zhu Youyu the future prince? It's not his turn to be in the limelight.

On November 17, the fourth year of Tianfu, there was a report from Malay, the Zhenguo army defeated Liyuan Village, and Yang Chongben withdrew his troops along Jingshui to outside Xinping City.

"Hahahaha, Yang Chongben, it's too late to regret it now, hum!"

In the eyes of Shi Shucong, you Yang Chong was originally a defeated general, and you only have the share of being a man with your tail between your legs, how dare you rebel? !

Your wife is good-looking, what if King Liang sleeps? That's because your ancestral grave is on fire, and you can only sleep with your wife, and others are rushing to let King Liang sleep! Didn't you see his daughter-in-law and let him go?!

Belch......

Anyway, it's right for you to hold your tail between your legs, and daring to rebel is the end.

Just when he was in a happy mood these days and gave Zhu Youyu a thumbs up for his achievements, he sent a secret letter from Liyuan Village.

Shi Shucong opened it and looked, I went, "Prince Zhu" turned out to be ill, and the army was retreating.

As soon as he pondered it, he felt that something was wrong.

The condition must be very serious, otherwise how could it be possible to withdraw the troops?

What to do on your own? The main forces have withdrawn, and the troops that have feinted on their own must also retreat, otherwise they will be in danger of being surrounded.

On November 22, Shi Shucong's army quietly withdrew.

The army retreated to Shengping County, leaving a thousand troops to monitor here, and on the 26th, the main force withdrew to the central city of Fangzhou, the state capital.

Leaving 5,000 to guard here, he returned with his army to Luojiao City, Shanzhou, the seat of the envoy of the Jiedu Envoy of Dunfang.

It was November 29 when I returned to Luojiaocheng.

Snowflakes covered the sky, the cold wind howled, and the whole world was in a depression.

King Li Yu repaired in Chengcheng in Tongzhou for a few days, and successively drove some replacement troops from Huazhou.

The weather was cold, and the army of tens of thousands of people had already changed into cotton clothes and cotton armor.

"Lord, it has been snowing heavily in the past few days, and the weather is freezing, is there a truce this year?"

Fang Xing's musket regiment was transferred back from Tongguan, and the two regiments of the Zhao brothers were stationed in Huayin County and could support Tongguan at any time.

Of course, Li Yu knew that this kind of weather was not a good time to raise troops, but the more bad weather like this, the more he could be surprised.

"Pass the order, the whole army will be ready for battle, and after the snow stops, go north along Luoshui and march into the central city."

At the moment when the snow was falling, in the military camps inside and outside Chengcheng, people were full of voices and carriages and horses were ready.

"Fang Xing, your regiment will travel lightly first, and when you get to the central city, you will see the opportunity to act, and I will arrive later."

"Yes."

More than 1,000 people from Fang Xingtuan walked along the river with dry food.

Day after year, December 6th.

The weather is sunny after the snow in the central city.

The soldiers on duty at the gate of the city were angry with white air in their mouths, rubbing their hands and stomping their feet back and forth, it was too cold, so they kicked their left foot and hit their right foot back and forth, so that the already frozen hands and feet were alive.

"It's bad that you have to guard the city gate in this damn weather."

A bearded man held the cold shaft of his spear between his arms, grinning with hot teeth, his beard was covered with hoarfrost, and his face was red from the cold.

"Ding Tou, it's almost noon, after getting off duty, let's go to the city for a drink to warm up?"

The other thin stunned man rubbed his cheeks, leaned in front of the beard, and said with a face.

"You idiot, you know how to drink, our two shitty money drink a fart. You kid is dreaming. ”

The bearded man kicked at the stunned head, but his feet slipped, and the spear in the crook of his arm fell like a wooden stick in the snow.

"Nima is unlucky."

On the road outside the city gate, more than a dozen men walked leisurely, all with their hands on their sleeves, stomping the snow on their feet as they walked.

"Eh, two cents per person in the city."

Stunned Qing leaned forward and said lazily.

Rumble~

Rumble~

Rumble~

This group of men suddenly stretched out a strange little iron rod, and it was a big law in front of a few soldiers guarding the door.

Smoke and thunder rumbled.

There was a lie at the gate of the city.

The people who entered and exited the city gates were so frightened that they fled in all directions.

The soldiers in the cave of the city gate were already frightened, and their legs were weak and fell to their knees.

The people who fired the shots were none other than the soldiers of the Fang Xing Musket Regiment.

They killed some of the soldiers at the gate, and ran into the gate.

Whoever tried to stop them was shot into a sieve.

In just a few breaths, the east gate of the central city was taken.

A large group of musketeers entered through the east gate.

Quickly captured the Assassin's Mansion and the military camp.

Five days later, Li Yu's army rushed to the central city, and Fang Xing had already firmly controlled the place.

The army was encamped outside the central city and trudged through the snow for many days, and the army was exhausted.

It has to be trimmed.

However, it was said that the officials of the central city and some of the defeated troops finally fled to Luojiao City after a five-day trek.

"Report, Jieshuai, the Central City has fallen!"

"What?!"

Uncle Cong stood up for a moment.

He never thought that just a few days after he came back, the Central City would be lost, and the entire Fangzhou would be lost.

"Who? Who is it? ”

"I didn't see the flag, I just heard the sound of thunder."

Hiss~

Uncle Cong chuckled in his heart, could it be that Yang Chongben chased after him?

It's possible.

"Immediately order troops and bring back the Central City."

From Luojiao to the central city of Fangzhou, it is nearly 70 miles away.

Luojiao City East Luoshui slowly to the south, while the central city is seventy miles downstream of Luoshui.

Galloping all the way, the fifteen thousand cavalry of Shi Shucong galloped along Luoshui to the south.

"Jieshuai, enter the corner between Luoshui and Huachi water in front, whether to cross the river in order to be safe."

His subordinates will remind Uncle Cong that there is a river on both sides, and it is not safe for us to be caught in the middle.

"Ten more miles to cross the river."

"Yes."

The further I ran, the closer the river became, from thirty miles apart to less than ten miles now.

Although the aquatic plants have dried up, the shallow water has frozen, and the water flow has become smaller, after all, it is still more than ten meters wide, and it will be troublesome if it is enclosed inside.

"Report, Jieshuai, we have passed Sanchuan County."

"Order, prepare to cross the river."

So the team slowed down their horses and went from the outpost to investigate the depth of the water in Huachi.

An hour later, the site for crossing the river was chosen, where the river was more than ten meters wide and had an undercurrent and a strand.

The strikers cut down trees and built bridges to cross the river.

After three hours of busy work, the improvised bridge was finally built, the logistics carriage also tried to cross the river, and everyone helped push the cart.

Seeing that 3,000 men and horses had arrived on the other side and sent out sentry spies, Shi Shucong was relieved and crossed the river with his own soldiers.

"Hurry up and find a suitable place to camp after crossing the river."

Just when Hua Chishui divided the Ten Thousand Five Cavalry into two.

From the direction of Sanchuan County, an army of black pressure surged in.

"Marshal, there are enemy troops in the direction of Sanchuan."

"Reported, the two rivers are surrounded."

"What?"

At this time, Uncle Cong was stunned.

When did Mikawa fall?

Why didn't anyone find out?

How did he know that the county magistrate of Sanchuan County and the history of Fangzhou were cousins, and when he saw that his brother had voted for the imperial court, what else could he say? The current imperial court still occupies the name of righteousness and is an orthodox ruler, who doesn't want to be an official of the imperial court?

In this way, Li Yu's army of 30,000 secretly entered Sanchuan County overnight, and the outside of the county was loose and tight, and only allowed to enter but not leave.

As a result, news of their presence was concealed.

Li Yu watched the cavalry of the brigade galloping through the middle of the two rivers, and his heart was secretly happy.

He was sure that his uncle must cross the river not far downstream, so he distributed the 30,000 troops in his hand.

After the cavalry of the 20,000 clan left, the 20,000-strong army crossed the Huachi water and secretly followed behind.

The remaining 10,000 soldiers quietly followed along the west side of Huachishui.

In this way, after a third of the way the river was crossed, the charge was launched.

All of a sudden, chickens and dogs jumped on both sides of the Huachi water.

The 3,000 cavalry, who had already crossed the river, quickly mounted their horses and prepared to resist to the death.

Shi Shucong was surrounded by his own soldiers.

And the cavalry that had not yet crossed the river was a bit chaotic.

Some will hurriedly organize resistance with men and horses, and some will want to cross the river before the enemy arrives.

Shi Shucong wanted to cross the river to command, but how could the soldiers dare to let him cross the river again.

The 20,000 Jingxiang infantry in the middle of the two rivers approached the cavalry step by step with neat and rigorous steps.

The generals were forced to mount their horses and charge the infantry formation.

The platoon in front of them was as cold as a forest, and the spears stood like hedgehogs.

More than 10,000 cavalry launched a desperate charge.

Bang bang bang ~~~

Dozens of black dots streaked across the sky and smashed into the herd of charging horses.

Thundered~~~

Thundered~~~~

Thundered~~~~~

Every explosion is like a conjuring order from the depths of hell, or like a thunderstorm falling from the sky, blowing up human bodies and horses scurrying wildly.

The war horses that were originally charging straight turned around automatically under the fright of the thunder, some ran into the rivers on both sides, and some directly turned their horses' heads and ran back.

All of a sudden, the momentum of the charge was chaotic.

"Foot shooting!"

With a command, a rain of arrows rained down from the sky, interspersed with thunder and explosions.

Howling and neighing became the main theme.

After three rounds of foot shooting.

Row up and march.

The sword and shield hand clenched the horizontal knife in his hand.

"Rush~~~~"

Wow~~~~

The crowd of black oppressors rushed into the chaotic herd of horses, spears and bayonets slashed, horses neighed, human bodies were slashed, and stumps and broken arms flew sideways.

At this time, human life is really like a mustard, and the gap between life and death is a moment.

The bestiality of human beings is brought to life at this time.

The river water on both sides slowly merged into streams of blood red, and in the turbulent river, it gradually dissolved, became shallow, and finally disappeared.

Seeing that the cavalry in the middle of the two rivers had lost their mobility advantage and was slashed by the infantry at close range, Shi Shucong's eyes were red.

But what can be done?

The surrounding geography has long allowed the cavalry to lose their advantage, and now even the gods can't save them.

"Kill it."

Shi Shucong stepped on horseback and rushed towards the surrounding infantry with more than 3,000 cavalry.

"Foot Shooting~"

Arrows rained down.

Hundreds of horsemen fell off their horses and were trampled to death by their own men.

"Shooting~~~"

Boom boom boom ~~~

Boom boom boom ~~~~

Shi Shucong's eyes were also the same as on the other side, and there was a thunderstorm.

The smoke filled the air, and the knights fell off their horses one after another.

Bang Bang Bang ~~~

Belch~~~

Uncle Cong felt a pain in his lower abdomen and numbness in his hands and feet. Seeing that I am getting closer and closer to the enemy, but why are my eyelids so heavy, my head is so dizzy, I really want to sleep and rest~

"Shuai, handsome."

Seeing the clan Shucong who was staggering on the war horse, his pro-soldiers gathered around, calling desperately.

"It's not good, the festival commander is injured, quickly protect the festival commander to break through."

The soldiers who had originally followed the charge of Shi Shucong squeezed his war horse and fled to the rear.

Li Yu stood on the tower of the south gate of Sanchuan City, looking at the battlefield a few miles away, his heart surging.

Once upon a time, he just wanted to survive in the chaotic times of the late Tang Dynasty, but now he has become the person who commands thousands of troops.

"Uncle Cong may have to run, organize cavalry, and chase."

"Yes."

The only 500 cavalry in the city were Li Yu's guards.

Leaving behind a hundred guards, the others straddled their horses and chased in the direction of Shi Shucong's escape.

The battle began at noon and continued until sunset.

The Jingxiang army suffered more than 2,000 casualties, while the Bao army suffered heavy casualties, 15,000 cavalry, more than 5,000 killed in battle, and only 8,000 surrendered and were spared.

In the battle of Sanchuan, Li Yu won a complete victory.

There is no longer any power of Zhu Wen in Kannai Dao.

That night, the cavalry who went out to hunt down Shi Shucong did not return, which made Li Yu uneasy.

After staying up until dawn, a group of exhausted cavalry returned to Sanchuan.

It turned out that the guards who were chasing Shi Shucong's guards were used by them, and after catching up with the other party, they did not find Shi Shucong, so they killed this group of Shi Shucong's own soldiers.

By this time it was already dark.

They carefully analyzed the entire pursuit process and believed that Shi Shucong might have gone to the direction of Central City.

That's what goes dark under the lights.

So they ran to the central city overnight.

Finally, he found Uncle Cong, who was already in a semi-comatose state, near the central city.

"Bring Uncle Cong up."

"Uh, Your Highness, he's unconscious."

"Oh? Hurry up and find Lang Zhong for treatment. ”

Uncle Cong rescued him for a day and a night, and then woke up.

Li Yu knew that he must have been in hemorrhagic shock.

On December 20, the fourth year of the year, Li Yu's army took the dazed uncle Cong to Luojiaocheng in Dunzhou.

At this time, the gate of Luojiao City was opened, and the army entered the city smoothly.

In the next few days, Yanzhou, Suizhou, and Danzhou will spread the message to let their assassins meet in Luojiaocheng.

Not only that, Li Yu also wrote letters to Yang Chongben, the envoy of the Suining Jiedu, and Han Xun, the envoy of the Shuofang Jiedu, asking them to be loyal to the imperial court.

As soon as the letter arrived, Yang Chongben immediately brought hundreds of followers from Pizhou to Luojiaocheng in Juzhou to surrender to Li Yu.

Li Yu immediately went to the imperial court and asked Yang Chongben to lead the Shaanxi Festival envoy to serve in Beijing and enjoy the blessings of the Qing Dynasty.

Yang Chongben saw that many members of Zhu Wen were beheaded, and his little heart was scared.

At the beginning, he was defeated in the hands of his uncle, and now Li Yu wants him to surrender, if he doesn't know the current affairs, he will also be ruined.

So he was extremely active and obedient to the arrangement of the imperial court.

Shuo Fang Jiedu made Han Xun have nothing to say, and immediately sent someone to see Li Yu, "The minister should guard the border and obey the orders of the imperial court."

Li Ye sat in Chang'an, and received the good news that Zhu Wen's power in Guannei Dao had been eradicated, and he was ecstatic, and Li Maozhen was left in the entire Guannei Dao.

Li Ye listened to the advice of Li Yu, the king of Germany, and on December 28, the fourth year of Tianfu, he sent a message to the feudal towns of Tianxia to encircle and suppress the rebellious Zhu Wen.
