Wei Ran took Yuan Muzhi's troops to the city of Jiangzhou, and then Yuan Muzhi shouted: "General Du has been killed in battle, Wei Guogong has made it clear that the soldiers in the city will not be held accountable, everyone quickly put down their weapons and surrender." ”

The Jiangzhou soldiers saw that it was Yuan Muzhi, and everyone looked at each other, and then the general defending the city said: "Wei Guogong is here?" ”

When Wei Ran heard this, he immediately stepped forward and said: "This duke is Wei Ran, Du Min has already conferred the head, and now Kaicheng has surrendered, and everyone and other officials will remain unchanged." ”

"Is Wei Guogong serious?"

"This public will do what he says, you can rest assured."

Then the gate of Jiangzhou City slowly opened, Wei Ran successfully entered Jiangzhou City, and then asked people to go to the river to recruit the remaining troops.

At this moment, Zhang Gui had already led his troops to pretend to be the Huangkou rout army and entered the Jiangzhou camp, and then created chaos in the camp, and Hu Song, who replaced Wei Ran to attack the Jiangzhou camp on the river, seized the opportunity and forcibly landed.

When the generals of Jiangzhou came to the Jiangzhou camp to prepare to persuade him to surrender, Zhang Gui was already cleaning the battlefield, and when he saw that soldiers and horses were suddenly coming from the direction of Jiangzhou, Zhang Gui immediately became vigilant, and when he saw Wei Ran's military order, he knew that Jiangzhou City had been conquered.

Hu Song and Zhang Gui then camped by the river to repair. Wei Ran was counting the treasury of Jiangzhou at this time, and when he saw that Yuan Mu's affairs were all arranged, he couldn't help but admire: "I have Qing, such as Liu Bei meets Kong Ming." ”

But then Wei Ran felt that something was wrong, how could he compare with Liu Bei.

Yuan Muzhi didn't care, but said with a smile: "Ming Gong's words are serious, now that Jiangzhou has been broken, Xiakou has completely cut off reinforcements, and it is a matter of time before the city is broken." ”

Wei Ran nodded slightly, and Yuan Muzhi then said: "The Jiangzhou army is also considered the elite of the imperial court, and after counting the number of people in the Jiangzhou battalion, you can reorganize the army." Now the soldiers should be fast, quickly conquer Xiakou, and then go down the river. ”

Wei Ran sighed when he heard this: "Xiakou is easy to defend and difficult to attack, how can it be easily broken." ”

"Quickly assemble the troops, and the grass people will lead the Jiangzhou army warships up the river, pretending to be reinforcements, and then the Wei Gong soldiers and horses will only need to pretend to block them on the front line, and Zhang Zemao will definitely send troops to rescue. At that time, the gate of Xiakou City was opened, and the grass people led the army into the city to seize the city gate, and Wei Gong led the army to rush in, and Xiakou could be broken. ”

Wei Ran thought for a moment when he heard this, nodded casually, and asked Yuan Muzhi to prepare for the army, while he pretended to be defeated and prepared to return to the Xiakou camp.

At the same time, Sima Yuanshan, the Great Sima of Northern Qin, sent his henchman Chen Hu to lead 50,000 troops to attack the Liangzhou rebels.

Although Lü Yu supported Yuan Jun, the son of Yuan Jie, and supported the army to rebel, but the surrounding cities did not have the will to fight, and in only one day, Chen Hu broke through Jinchang City, and then surrounded Guzang City.

Lu Yu shouted on the city tower: "The head of the family is solved, and the country has made great contributions." But he was killed in Chang'an by the traitor Yuanshan, and his bones were not cold. Now that the traitors of the court want to kill the head of the family, although I am a general, I also know what to do and what not to do. If the soldiers are greedy for wealth and wealth, they can actually tie me up and give it to Yuanshan, if they don't want to, then they will fight to the death without a fight, and comfort the spirit of the master in the sky! ”

The defenders of Guzang all shouted that they were willing to fight to the death, and then Lu usurped down the city tower, turned on his horse, opened the city gate and rushed directly to Chen Huzhong's army.

Chen Hu led his troops to conquer Jinchang and besieged Guzang day and night, but the people were sleepy and the horses were not repaired. As soon as the army besieged the city, it saw Lu Yu rushing out at the city gate, and Chen Hu's subordinates were in chaos, and at this time there was a strong wind, and the yellow sand was all over the sky, and the soldiers could not distinguish the direction from each other.

General Chen Hu couldn't get through, and suddenly felt that the situation was critical, and hurriedly shouted to the guards around him: "Return to Jinchang." Then Chen Hu Ming Jin withdrew his troops, but at this time, the Northern Qin army could not distinguish between the southeast and the northwest, and the troops scattered and fled, and Lü Yu took the opportunity to pursue and kill Chen Hu, and Chen Hu fled all the way to Jinchang. However, the gate of Jinchang City was not opened, and it turned out that the Northern Qin army left behind to loot in the city, causing dissatisfaction among the people, so they secretly released the three thousand Lu usurper soldiers who surrendered in Jinchang City.

With the cooperation of the people and soldiers, the defenders of Northern Qin were caught off guard and fled out of the city in a hurry, and Jinchang returned to the hands of Lü Yu.

Chen Hu saw that the gate of Jinchang City was not opened, so he had to bypass Jinchang City and retreat all the way to Anding, and the army of Lu Usurp in Jinchang City opened the city gate to chase and kill when he saw this, Chen Hu fled all the way, and he was only spared, and fled back to Anding in a hurry.

When the news reached Chang'an, Yuan Zhi was furious when he heard the words, and he wanted to convict Chen Hu.

"Your Majesty, Chen Hu is guilty of punishment, but Chen Hu is recommended by Da Sima, so it is very inappropriate to deal with it like this." Above the main hall, Min Guan said.

In the face of such a blatant stabbing behavior, Won Sun was extremely angry in his heart. After several defeats and the Yuanxi incident, Yuanshan's prestige in the DPRK plummeted, and Min Guan took this opportunity to spare no effort to suppress Yuanshan, and now in the face of Min Guan's cynical behavior, Yuanshan can no longer hold back the anger in his heart.

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, and the minister voluntarily resigns and returns to the house to recuperate." Yuan Shan said coldly.

"Why did Uncle Huang say this, I still have a lot of things to worry about Uncle Huang." Seeing this, Yuan Zhi hurriedly spoke out to dissuade him.

Now that Yuan Shan's military power is in his hands, if he is a little careless, the Northern Qin will not recover, and Yuan Zhen can only play a round when he sees this.

"Da Sima is serious, and the court today can't do without Da Sima," the ministers also began to dissuade them.

Yuan Shan waved his sleeves, snorted coldly, and then said: "Now that the war in Huainan is stable, please transfer Yuwenzhi back, and General Yuwen will lead the troops of Yongsi and Liangzhou to crusade against the rebellion in Liangzhou." ”

When Yuan Zhen heard this, he began to think in his heart. Now Yuwenzhi and Zhao Youzhi led more than 100,000 troops to be stationed in Shouchun, Hefei, with great momentum. Yuwen is a confidant of Yuan Shan, and Zhao Youzhi is indeed a concubine and has always been loyal.

Thinking of this, Yuan Zhi said: "General Yuwen is the head of the two Huai, and he cannot be moved lightly. Zhao Juma has been away from Beijing for many days, and Aunt Changqing is also quite concerned, it is better to let Zhao Juma return to Chang'an, and then go to Liangzhou to quell the rebellion, what do you think? ”

"The minister seconded the proposal." Yuan Shan was the first to stand up in support: "Liangzhou is a barren land, Zhao Juma has been conquering Shanhu for many years, compared to General Yuwen, Zhao Juma is indeed more suitable for conquering Liangzhou." ”

Min Guan was also anxious to repair the relationship with Zhao Youzhi, and then said: "The minister also seconded the proposal, Zhao Yuma is my Great Qin Army God, and this time he will definitely be able to succeed." ”

Seeing that the ministers had no opinions, Yuan Zhi issued an edict to Ma Zhao Youzhi as the governor of Pingliang and return to Beijing within a limited date.

The atmosphere in Jiankang City is also solemn at this time, since Xiao Ju's wife and daughter and the Wang clan were beheaded a few days ago, not only the ministers of the court and the central government are in danger, but even the people in the city are quite angry.

Xiao Ju is generous, and when he was the prince, he helped the victims many times, and when he concurrently served as the Jiankang Order, he also gave benevolent government, which was quite popular with the people of Jiankang.

Wang Zhenmo is an honest official, and the discipline of the children of the clan is very much, very rarely in Jiankang to do illegal things, now killed, rumors in Jiankang City, in the heart of the people to fuel, Xiao Luan killed his father and usurped the throne is even more well-known by the people.

In the face of increasing gossip, many of the southern scholars led by Lu Cao have begun to repent, and now Xiao Luan's unauthorized killing has made many ministers see that this person is definitely not the master.

One of Xiao Luan's most trusted ministers, his cousin Xiao Yi repeatedly advised Xiao Luan that when there are internal and external troubles, the criminal law should not be too harsh, and more attention should be paid to frugality. Xiao Luan not only didn't listen, but indulged in pleasure even more, and in order to celebrate the queen's birthday, he wanted to build a new garden in Taicheng.

Xiao Yi dissuaded him many times, but was hated by the queen, Xiao Yi knew that Xiao Luan would die for a long time, so he escaped from Jiankang City at night and returned to the fiefdom of Changsha to close the city and defend himself.

Xiao Luan was furious when he learned the news, and then he frantically killed Xiao Yi's sons in Jiankang, a total of six people, so that even Lu Ke couldn't stand it.

"Your Majesty, now that there are internal and external troubles, Your Majesty must not implicate your family like this, and when the time comes, everyone will think about it, and the big thing will go."

It may be because of the various things since he ascended the throne that completely stimulated Xiao Luan's tyrannical character hidden in the depths, Xiao Luan heard this, and said to Lu Cao: "If you don't use thunder means now, how can you make people surrender?" It is to kill them until they are frightened, and kill them until they dare not rebel! ”

Seeing this, Lu Ke was silent for a long time, and then left the palace with a long sigh.
