When the news of Ye Xiong's first battle against Zhang Chun's complete victory came back to Dai County. A troop dressed in the uniforms of the soldiers of Youzhou Prefecture was marching on the road to Zhuo County. Looking closely, this army actually carried the banner of Youzhou Mu Liu Dai, but it was just looking at the spirit of the soldiers, but it was obviously different from the Youzhou soldiers who were used to seeing it in the past.

Could it be that the soldiers of Youzhou Prefecture have been reborn in just a few months? The answer is no. Even Gao Shun, a master of military training, does not have the ability to train the soldiers of Youzhou Mansion to the level of the Xiongwu Army in just a few months.

Since it is under the banner of Liu Dai, this unit pretending to be a soldier of Youzhou Prefecture, the nominal supreme commander is naturally Liu Dai. As for where did the original 20,000 Youzhou soldiers go? Of course, they pretended to be the Protector Army and were taken by Zhao Xing to the vicinity of Danhan Mountain.

Liu Dai rode on a horse with a docile personality, set off from Dong'anyang, and marched all the way to Zhuojun in high spirits. Although he is not a military general, Liu Dai enjoys the feeling of leading thousands of troops now, especially with the Xiongwu Army, one of the strong armies of the Jin Kingdom, and there is a feeling of looking down on the world. As the actual commander, Li Jinwu has always been by Liu Dai's side, not because he was worried that Liu Dai would abduct this army, but mainly to facilitate the command of the army.

"General Li, I don't know how many such mighty and majestic troops are there in the Jin Kingdom?" Liu Dai chatted with Li Jinwu beside him while walking.

"There are currently eight armies in the National Protector Army, each of which is brave and extraordinary, and each has its own characteristics. In the coming day, Liu Gong will go to the Jin Kingdom and will come into contact with them one by one. Li Jinwu explained more politely.

Liu Dai tilted his chin, gently stroked the beard on his chin, and said with some sighs: "It's really better than not knowing, and I'm more frightened." Compared with the Jin State Protector Army, the Youzhou Mansion soldiers are like the gap between children and strong men. It is no wonder that in the past, General Zhenbei could repeatedly inflict heavy losses on the armies of all parties, and the more he fought the territory, the bigger it became, and now he has extended his hand into Youzhou......"

Li Jinwu smiled lightly and said a little implicitly: "Liu Gong is also a person who knows the current affairs, and when he knows that the Jin Kingdom can have today, it all depends on the power of one person. If this person can fly dragons in the sky, then why should the people of the world suffer from swords and soldiers in the future?"

Liu Dai turned his head and glanced at Li Jinwu meaningfully, then nodded and said: "I am a member of the Han family, so I should maintain the orthodoxy of the Han family." However, when the plague was rampant in the past, Zhao Guochang tried his best to save the people of Youzhou without any intention, which deeply shocked me. If there is such a hero in the world, it is not a blessing for the people, and why should I use my mantis arm as a car and seek troubles for myself. ”

"What Liu Gong said is very true, my generation only wants to calm down the disputes in the world as soon as possible and open a peaceful and prosperous era for the people!" After Li Jinwu finished speaking, he clamped his hips and walked quickly forward, leaving a firm and powerful back, which made Liu Dai behind him sigh namelessly.

A few days later, Liu Dai came to Fanyang City with 20,000 soldiers, and after the handover of the first and second regiments of the Xiong Zhen Army Heavy Cavalry Regiment responsible for garrisoning Fanyang, Liu Dai left 2,000 soldiers to guard more than 10,000 prisoners in the city, and he led his troops to continue to move towards Fangcheng, and the two regiments of heavy cavalry also followed behind and prepared to go to Fangcheng to join Ye Xiong.

Ye Xiong, who successfully took the city, had already received an order from Xu Shu, asking him to join the Xiongwu army led by Li Jinwu, temporarily obey Li Jinwu's dispatch, go to Jixian County together, take down the thief head Zhang Ju as quickly as possible, and then continue to the east to Yuyang City, and strive to protect the big fish and small fish in Yuyang City, and not a single one can slip away. Zhao Xing specially greeted Xu Shu and Li Jinwu, and he must capture Gongsun Zan and his generals alive, especially Tian Yu, Xu Rong, Tian Chou, Murong and Ping, no matter how chaotic they are.

Ye Xiong originally thought that Xu Shu would mobilize the mixed cavalry division to go north to Diping, and after joining up with Xiong Zhen's army, he would attack Qiu Liju, but now it seems that Xu Shu is very confident that he can take Qiu Liju with only 15,000 infantry in his hands. Ye Xiong did not dare to despise this young army commander, he had heard several regiment commanders under him talk more than once about the classic example of army commander Xu plotting against Cao Cao and Yan Yan during the Western Front War. Since Xu Shu asked him to follow Li Jinwu, there was naturally a reason.

In fact, Xu Shu gave such an order, but he was also worried that Zhang Jugou would jump over the wall in a hurry, and lead his rebels to break through from Jixian County and flee north into the territory controlled by Xianbei in Liaodong. To deal with deserters, it is more advantageous to have a mixed rider. After Liu Dai joined Ye Xiong in Fangcheng, he left two thousand soldiers to garrison, and after a short rest of the army, he marched northeast, aiming at Ji County, the seat of Guangyang County.

In Li Jinwu's view, attacking Zhang Ju in Jixian County is not a difficult thing at all. Gongsun Zan was deflated under the city of Jixian County, because he used cavalry to attack the city, which was naturally thankless. But the Xiongwu Army is not a white horse righteous servant, all infantry, and the accompanying army also carries some equipment specially used to siege the city, even including the latest high-explosive developed by the Crouching Tiger Equipment Institute.

Because they were carrying some siege equipment, the marching speed of the Xiongwu army was relatively slow, and it took five days to reach Jixian County, which was more than 100 miles away. Along the way, the Xiongwu army disguised as Youzhou Mansion soldiers continued to encounter small groups of rebels to attack and harass, but each time they were instantly bombarded by the light cavalry rushing out from the rear. Dealing with these small groups of rebels like flies, the light cavalry under Ye Xiong's command is better than a fly swatter.

When the army was about to approach Jixian County, Zhang Ju learned from the small number of rebels who had fled back that Youzhou Mu had come to attack Jixian with a large army. Zhang Ju didn't know that his cousin Zhang Chun, who was named a general, and his 30,000 troops were now prisoners, so he hurriedly sent a messenger to ask Zhang Chun in Fangcheng for help, and on the other hand, he ordered his subordinates to close the four gates, intending to repeat the same trick as he did against Gongsun Zan last time.

After surrounding Jixian County, Liu Dai ordered people to push the captive Zhang Chun to the front of the army, and then asked his subordinates to shout loudly: "Zhang Chun has surrendered, the anti-thief Zhang Ju is about to be destroyed, those who lay down their weapons will not be killed, and those who take the initiative to sacrifice the city gate will be rewarded with a thousand taels, and those who will be offered a living Zhang Ju will be rewarded with a thousand taels, and those who will be offered a head will be rewarded with a thousand bounties!"

The rebels defending the city didn't panic much when they saw the siege of Simen at first, thinking that the rebels from all over the country would return to Jixian to besiege the soldiers of Youzhou Prefecture. But when they saw Zhang Chun, who was tied up and sturdy, and was pushed to the front of the battle, the soldiers immediately panicked. Since Zhang Chun has become a prisoner, it means that 30,000 friendly troops have been wiped out, and now there are at least 20,000 troops besieging the city outside the city.

Zhang Ju, who was at the head of the city, was also very frightened when he saw his cousin being captured, and quickly ordered his dead soldiers to strictly protect him and hide in the mansion, pondering a strategy to defend against the enemy.

Without waiting for Zhang Ju to think of a good way, Li Jinwu, who had lost his patience, ordered the army to start the siege. The longbow regiment under the city shot a dense rain of arrows at the head of the city, suppressing the rebels in the city from daring to show their heads, and then the ironclad cart loaded with high explosives was slowly pushed into the gate cave of Jixian County.

With an earth-shattering bang, the originally unattainable west gate of Jixian County was blown beyond recognition, and a huge gap appeared in front of the panicked rebels.

Before the smoke cleared, the heavy infantry of the Xiongwu Army outside the city lined up in a neat offensive formation, and rushed into the city of Jixian from the collapsed city gate.
