Du Min was marching on the official road at the moment, but he was always uneasy in his heart.

If Huangkou falls, then the advantage of natural danger will no longer exist, and Wei Ran's army will attack Jiangzhou by land, and the camps along the river will become decorations.

At this time, Du Min was also extremely disappointed in Jiankang in his heart: "Knowing that the thief army is so powerful, the imperial court just refuses to allocate reinforcements, and 50,000 soldiers and horses stick to such a long line of defense, isn't it ridiculous?" ”

In fact, according to Lu Cao's idea, there were 50,000 soldiers and horses in Jiangzhou, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from Xiakou to Sanzhou, and the number of soldiers did not suffer much loss.

However, the rebels of Sanwu and Southern Xuzhou made it impossible for Lu Cao to divide his troops to rescue. Now the army seems to be holding on to Jiankang, but in fact, it has been trapped in Jiankang City and cannot move.

With Wu County being conquered by Chen Qing, the nearest place for the rebels was only a hundred miles away from Jiankang. It can be arrived in one day, which makes Lu Ke even more afraid to act rashly.

And Chen Qing also sent people to Guangling from the waterway and connected with Yangkan. Only then did Yangkan learn that Xiao Ju had ascended the throne and was already attacking Xiakou.

After hearing this, Yangkan planned to attack Jingkou from Guangling to echo.

But at this moment, Liu Renye stopped Yangkan and said: "General, our focus should not be on Jiankang, but on guarding against Northern Qin. ”

"Northern Qin?" Yangkan was already at a loss at this time.

"Now it can basically be judged that Xiao Luan and Northern Qin must have a connection. The county prince was brave and invincible, and broke through Xiakou and Jiangzhou. It was only a matter of time before the soldiers threatened Jiankang. ”

Liu Renye's eyes were blazing at this time, and he said to Yangkan: "Xiao Luan will definitely ask for help from Northern Qin, if our army leaves Guangling, Guangling will be empty." Zhao Youzhi will inevitably attack, once Guangling is lost, Zhongli and Huaiyin will be attacked on their backs, and the city will be broken sooner or later. ”

At this time, Liu Renye became more and more excited, and then said with a little excitement: "If our army is stationed in Guangling and does not move, we will instead send elite troops to Wu County along the coastal road to cooperate with Chen Taishou's troops." Then Zhao Youzhi will not know. Once the Northern Qin army really crosses the river, then we can take the opportunity to cross Feishui, occupy Xiaoxian and other cities, and cut off Zhao Youzhi's retreat. Therefore, Guangling City must be in our own hands before the Northern Qin army makes any moves. ”

Yang Kan looked at Liu Renye, who was looking excited in front of him, and couldn't help but show a smile. If this young general can grow up in this incident, he will definitely be a generation of famous generals in the future.

At this time, Wei Ran led the army to quickly approach the direction of Jiangzhou, and sent several spies to explore the way.

Wei Ran's purpose in this battle is very simple, if Du Min leads his troops to save Huangkou, he will fight an encounter with Du Min, if Du Min does not attack, he will use these more than 10,000 people to block the connection between Du Min and the riverside, and completely annihilate Du Min's troops on the riverside.

But there are also many people who are worried, after all, there are only more than 10,000 people, in case they encounter Du Min's main force, how to do it.

Wei Ran didn't care, in his opinion. It would be great to be able to meet Du Min in the wild, and if Du Min held on to the city, the casualties would be even greater.

At this moment, the spies suddenly came to report that there was Du Min's vanguard in front of them, probably thousands of people.

When Wei Ran heard this, he thought secretly in his heart. If the army ambushed these thousands of people, then Du Min would inevitably retreat, and at this time, Wei Ran wanted to appear again. Although Du Min is indecisive, he is very happy. Thinking of this, Wei Ran had an idea.

Du Min's pioneer Yu Dahai was on the way with 4,000 men and horses at this time, and suddenly saw more than 2,000 people in front of him. Yu Dahai was shocked, but Wei Ran seemed to be more surprised than Yu Dahai.

When the two armies met, they immediately stood together, and Yu Dahai saw the word Wei written on the banner of the army in front of him, and secretly thought in his heart that this person was Wei Ran?

Seeing Wei Ran wearing silver armor and holding a spear, he was invincible in the crowd, which verified the conjecture in his heart.

The two sides fought for a long time, and seeing that Wei Ran still had no reinforcements, and there were signs of retreating in the direction of the Yangtze River, Yu Dahai judged that Wei Ran must only have a small force, perhaps preparing to set up an ambush here, so he hurriedly asked the herald to inform Du Min.

Wei Ran was also very anxious at the moment, why didn't Yu Dahai send someone to find Du Min, acting is really troublesome.

Seeing dozens of horses heading west from a distance, Wei Ran was relieved, and then continued to wrestle with Yu Dahai.

Yu Dahai sent someone to quietly go north at this time, wanting to cut off Wei Ran's way back, seeing this, Wei Ran couldn't help but smile in his heart, just want you to think that I want to retreat to the river.

At this time, Du Min, who was in the rear, received the news from Yu Dahai and was overjoyed, and immediately ordered the troops to advance at full speed, preparing to take the opportunity to capture and kill Wei Ran.

The staff hurriedly said: "My lord, don't say that Wei Ran is a hero, it's not so simple to keep him." And the commander of the army is now only taking these people, I am afraid that there will be fraud. ”

Du Min couldn't listen to it at all at this time, and said: "You know a fart, Wei Ran is young and vigorous, and he often takes the lead when he fights. Moreover, when the land of Sanwu was pacified in the past, he would bring dozens of people to explore the way, and this opportunity should not be missed. ”

"General at this time and at that time, Wei Ran at that time and Wei Ran today are not the same!" The staff hurried up to dissuade them.

But Du Min whipped it over: "You literati mother-in-law, mother-in-law, if you are afraid that you will hide behind!" ”

Then Du Min ordered the whole army to advance quickly, and when the staff saw this, they had to shout: "Leave 2,000 people as the rear team, and prepare to meet General Du." ”

Du Min quickly rushed to the battlefield and sure enough, he saw Wei Ran. At this time, Wei Ran still had more than 1,000 people, and he was fighting with Yu Dahai, when suddenly Wei Ran looked up and saw Du Min's army.

Du Min only saw that Wei Ran's army was suddenly scattered, trying to break through to the north, and he was even more firm in his judgment, and then led the army into the battlefield.

Wei Ran saw that the road to the north was impassable, so he had to lead the army to retreat to the east, and fled extremely quickly.

Seeing the great achievement, it was right in front of him, Du Min and Yu Dahai were completely carried away at this time, and led the army to pursue Wei Ran behind.

But there was no way to catch up with Wei Ran, just when Du Min was anxious. Suddenly, I saw countless boulders on the surrounding mountains, rolling down the wood.

Du Min shouted: "It's not good, I really fell for this person's trick." ”

Then he wanted to retreat, but when he saw the people rushing down the mountains and fields, Wei Ran also turned around to cover up, Du Min didn't know how many people Wei Ran had, and he was even more shocked.

His soldiers also scattered and fled, and Wei Ran laughed: "Du Min, take your life." ”

Du Min was anxious and wanted to flee for his life, and he regretted not listening to what his staff said, but he suddenly felt that the war horse under his crotch was unstable, and Du Min fell to the ground from the horse, which turned out to be the war horse's hoof.

Seeing this, Yu Dahai desperately came to the rescue, but it was too late, Du Min was surrounded by Wei Ran's men and directly hacked to death.

At this time, Du Min's staff led the army to arrive, and just happened to see Du Min die tragically.

The staff muttered: "The general trend has gone, the general trend has gone!" ”

Wei Ran couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that Du Min actually had a back hand, only to see that the leader was a young man dressed as a Confucian student, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, Wei Ran shot over a soldier who wanted to sneak attack, and then asked: "Who are you, why are you abetting abuse?" ”

"The name of the villain is not enough." The staff member didn't want to say more.

"Now that Du Min is dead, and the mouth has been conquered by me, if you lead the army to surrender, this duke will protect you from death." Wei Ran pointed a gun at the staff member, and then said loudly.

At this time, Yu Dahai had also been captured, and shouted: "Mr. Yuan, the general trend has gone, don't resist stubbornly." ”

Wei Ran was also interested at this time, and looked back at Yu Dahai: "Who is this person?" ”

"This son Yuan Muzhi is a staff member under Du Min's account, and he has no official position." Yu Dahai already knew everything at this time: "The ability is quite strong, but it's a pity that Du Min is stubborn and self-serving, otherwise it will not stop there." ”

When Wei Ran heard this, he immediately fell in love with his talents, and then said: "Mr. Yuan, Xiao Luan killed his father and usurped the throne, His Majesty is wise and brave and now wants to crusade against the traitors, why do you need to help the traitors, this is a great opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and he will step on the Northern Dynasty together one day, isn't it faster?" ”

After Yuan Muzhi heard this, the expression on his face was cloudy, he was a down-and-out scholar, and his family had no relationship, so he had been depressed. Because he is a native of Jiangzhou, he has a good reputation in Jiangzhou, so he was hired by Du Min as a staff member. But Du Min didn't use his tactics everywhere, and now he is dead, which has already made Yuan Muzhi have the heart to go into hiding.

Wei Ran saw the expression on Yuan Muzhi's face, and then said: "Now there are many traitors in the imperial court, and when Your Majesty returns to Jiankang, he will reign in all countries." Sir can do it all. And Mr. is a person from Jiangzhou, now that Du Min is dead, Mr. led his troops to surrender, which can not only stop the sword soldiers at this moment, but also save Jiangzhou from war, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds. ”

At this time, Yuan Muzhi's surrounding soldiers were all loosened, and as some soldiers put their weapons on the ground, the rest of the soldiers also put their weapons on the ground. Listening to the surrounding voices, Yuan Muzhi sighed, then dismounted and said: "Yuan Muzhi, a criminal in Jiangzhou, is willing to be driven by Duke Wei." ”

Wei Ran immediately laughed, hurriedly helped Yuan Muzhi, and then said: "In this case, please ask Mr. to lead the way when you go to Jiangzhou." ”

At this time, outside Xiakou City, Xiao Ju was reading a book in the camp, and suddenly there was a commotion in the camp, and then Hengxian walked in.

"Evergrande people, what's the matter?" Xiao Ju raised his head, looked at Hengxian and asked suspiciously.

Heng Xian hesitated at this time, not knowing how to speak.

"Evergrande people, there is something to do, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Xiao Ju's speech is like a breeze.

After hesitating for a long time, Heng Xian finally spoke: "Your Majesty, please pay your respects." Jiankang just came with the news that His Majesty's wife and daughter were six people, and Yu Jiankang was beheaded. More than 100 members of the king's family were also executed. ”

When Xiao Ju heard this, he suddenly became dizzy and fell directly to the ground.

Hengxian was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly shouted: "Spread the doctor, immediately send someone to Jiangzhou to find General Wei to come back to preside over the overall situation!" ”
