Xiao Jingxuan rested in Hengzhou for three days, and the scouts finally tracked down Yu Wenyue's traces after a thousand lucks.

It turned out that at this time, Yu Wenyue had already returned to Bingzhou because of insufficient troops.

Hearing this news, Xiao Jingxuan also breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he knew the movement, it would be easy to do.

Xiao Jingxuan appointed Zhou Tong as the chief general of Hengzhou temporarily, and he returned to Yizhou with Ye Xiong and Yang Xiong's two battalions.

Now that the troops have been greatly damaged, the plan to attack Yunzhou City can be regarded as a failure, but this trip can be regarded as a great weakening of the strength of Zhao State, and it will be beneficial to the future.

When Xiao Jingxuan returned to the camp in Yizhou with the army, Yizhou was still calm, and there was no major battle between the two sides, not even small-scale friction.

The first thing Xiao Jingxuan did when he returned to the camp was to hold a military meeting, the first thing was to expand the army.

At the same time, while expanding the army, Xiao Jingxuan also took the opportunity to promote a group of generals and make some adjustments to some of the original generals.

Among the generals, Huangfu Song, Hu Yanzhuo, Gongsun Sheng, and Lei Ben have the highest merits, followed by Ye Xiong and Yang Xiong, and the rest of the generals are again.

So Xiao Jingxuan appointed Huangfu Song as the head of the newly established Hengzhou battalion, and let Hu Dewei serve as the deputy general. The rest of the generals were promoted from among the leading generals who had made meritorious contributions.

The total strength of the Hengzhou battalion is 50,000, and in addition to the original two people's headquarters soldiers and horses, 30,000 people are transferred from the new recruits into it.

Hu Yanzhuo was transferred to the head of the Pingcheng battalion, responsible for the town guard, with a total strength of 40,000 troops, and Chu Liang served as the deputy general. Except for Hu Yanzhuo's headquarters soldiers and horses, the rest of the soldiers and horses were transferred from the recruits.

Allow. Zhang Changning is the head of the Navy Division and is in charge of all the armies of the Navy Division. The total strength of the army is 10,000, and the army will not be expanded for the time being.

Lei Ben was transferred to be the head of the Shenzhou battalion, mainly guarding Shenzhou and Baicheng, with a total strength of 30,000 people, and Zhou Tong served as the deputy general. In addition to the soldiers and horses of the two headquarters, another 10,000 people were transferred from the recruits.

Yang Xiong was transferred to the head of the Youzhou battalion, with 50,000 troops under his command, and the deputy general Qiu Rong and Zhanming. Except for the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, the rest of the soldiers and horses were transferred from among the recruits.

Ye Xiong's tiger and leopard cavalry was expanded to 20,000 people, with Xiao Yuan as the deputy general. Xiao Ran was promoted to the commander of the pro-army, and the pro-army expanded to 3,000 people.

Pan Hu was transferred to serve as the commander of the personal guard battalion, responsible for training middle and lower-level officers for the army.

Wang Xuan served as the chief general of Yingzhou, responsible for guarding Yingzhou, and Niu Gai was the chief general of Yizhou. Responsible for guarding Yizhou.

At the same time, Xiao Jingxuan transferred Gongsun Sheng, who was not outstanding in strategy, to the secretary of the Ministry of War, Tang Wanyi served as the left attendant of the Ministry of War, and Qi Biao and Qu Qingshan were transferred to the cabinet.

Xiao Jingxuan's adjustment is not ruthless, almost half of the generals who originally came from Xiaowei were cut by Xiao Jingxuan.

In fact, Xiao Jingxuan has no way to do this. These generals are too deeply involved with the gate valve family.

At the same time, it is also to prevent the generals who are born in the army from forming a group of interests.

Although the commanders of the four battalions are still from Xiaowei, most of the generals under his command are rookies in the army. It has nothing to do with Snapguard. And he is loyal to Xiao Jingxuan.

Although it is still on the front line, with the issuance of Xiao Jingxuan's military order, the garrisons in various places have also begun to be mobilized. It is believed that soon the battalions will complete the expansion and deployment.

In the next few days, Xiao Jingxuan did not launch an attack on Yizhou, but surrounded but did not fight.

This situation lasted for a month, and a month later, the army under Xiao Jingxuan also completed the adjustment.

Today, in addition to the tiger and leopard cavalry, the pro-army, and the pro-guard battalion besieging Yizhou, the army besieging Yizhou is the 80,000-strong army of the Hengzhou battalion and the Youzhou battalion.

In other words, the total number of troops besieging Yizhou reached an unprecedented 110,000 people.

On this day, after Xiao Jingxuan sent a letter of persuasion to Yuwentuo in Yizhou, he began to prepare to launch an attack on Yizhou.

During this period of rest, Xiao Jingxuan was not idle, and a large number of siege equipment were manufactured.

A large number of turrets, trebuchets, siege engines began to be pushed to the front.

As long as Xiao Jingxuan gave an order, these weapons would launch a fierce attack on Yizhou.

Not surprisingly, Yuwen Tuo rejected Xiao Jingxuan's persuasion.

With the news sent by the messenger, Xiao Jingxuan gave the order to attack.

With the issuance of the military order, thousands of trebuchets launched an attack on Yizhou at the same time, followed by arrow towers and siege vehicles at the same time.

The overwhelming boulders flew towards the Yizhou city wall, and the defenders of the city tower who were full of arrows and rain couldn't raise their heads at all. For a time, it was bloody and bloody.

Xiao Jingxuan did not personally go to the front of the battle to supervise the battle, because there were more important things now.

At this time, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Xiao Jingxuan was sitting on the handsome seat watching the folds, and below were Zhao Gang and Xiao Yuan.

Xiao Jingxuan's brows became tighter and tighter, and the murderous aura on his body became stronger and stronger.

Soon, Xiao Jingxuan finished watching the recital. The fold explained in detail the investigation process of the two of them on the appearance of Yingzhou iron armor in Youzhou before.

Xiao Jingxuan looked at Xiao Yuan and asked through gritted teeth, "Are you sure?" ”

Xiao Yuan immediately said: "Back to the king, it's true." ”

After hearing Xiao Yuan's confirmation, Xiao Jingxuan forcibly suppressed his anger and said to Xiao Yuan: "Well, hard work, you have now been transferred to the Haw Par Cavalry as a deputy general, so go down to rest first, and then go to the Haw Par Cavalry tomorrow to take up a post." ”

"Yes, the last will obey."

After Xiao Yuan retreated, Xiao Jingxuan looked at Zhao Gang.

After Zhao Gang felt Xiao Jingxuan's gaze, he immediately said.

"Back to the king, Weichen has taken down all the fifty-nine officials involved in the case, and none of them have been missed."

Xiao Jingxuan said angrily: "It's not enough, all these officials will be killed, and all the families of the convicts and their female dependents will be sent to the Jiaofang Division, and all the men will be sent to Baicheng as slaves." ”

"Yes, Wechen will do it immediately."

When Zhao Gang retreated, Xiao Jingxuan finally calmed down the anger in his heart. However, this incident also gave Xiao Jingxuan a wake-up call.

That is Liu Xiu, such a large-scale arms delivery, as the chief general of Pingzhou at that time, it is impossible for Liu Xiu not to know.

It seems that Liu Xiu is hiding quite deeply, and Liu Xiu's position must be moved.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jingxuan said to his side.

"Someone."

"The end will be."

"Passing the decree, Liu Xiu worked hard and made great achievements, and was specially named An Lebo, and ordered him to go to Yizhou to be raised, and ordered the Ministry of Engineering to build an An Lebo Mansion immediately."

"Yes."

After dealing with these things, Xiao Jingxuan put his energy into this battle.

At this time, in Yizhou City, Yuwen Tuo didn't mention how depressed he was.

Yuwen Tuo sat on the handsome seat and listened to the complaints of the generals under him one by one.

As the defending side, it stands to reason that the casualties should be much smaller than those of the attacking side.

Now, however, the other way around. The Yan army did not launch a strong attack, but only knew that it kept dispatching long-range weapons.

The rain of arrows and crossbows of the soldiers on the tower of the city did not hurt the Yan army, but many of their own defenders died under the rain of boulder arrows.

The Yan army besieging the city didn't seem to be in a hurry, and it had been besieging the city for more than a month before launching an attack.

The most important thing is that there is not much food and grass in the city. Now that Hengzhou has fallen, and the reinforcements have been destroyed.

If you don't make a decision sooner, the results can be ugly.

Listening to the nagging of the generals under his command, Yuwen Tuo's face is getting more and more ugly, and now, what good can Yuwen Tuo do.

ran away without fighting in Youzhou. Does Yizhou still want to run? If Yizhou is lost, even if he returns to Zhao State, I am afraid that what awaits him is death.

The battle did not end with Yuwen Taku's troubles, but as time passed, the attacks became more and more violent.

The Hengzhou camp is in the east, the Youzhou camp is in the west, and the tiger and leopard cavalry are divided into two, guarding the front of the two camps respectively, protecting their own siege equipment.

Xiao Jingxuan's military order is that as long as Yizhou City is not broken for a day, all remote equipment cannot be stopped for a moment.

This continued for twenty days, and a breach finally appeared in the walls. In some places, there have already been collapses.

Xiao Jingxuan knew that the time had come to attack the city.

The weather was sunny and cloudless on this day, and with Xiao Jingxuan's military order to reach the battalions, soon, the general attack began.

A large number of foot soldiers began to kill along the gap towards the city, and at the same time, a large number of ladders were erected.

This time, Xiao Jingxuan did not charge at the front, but asked Xiao Ran to charge with his own army.

Because the overall situation has been decided at this time, Xiao Jingxuan can't compete with his subordinates.

As a soldier of the Yan Army rushed into the city and stepped on the tower. The whole Yizhou began to sound shouting and killing.

It's a pity that the Zhao army defending the city blocked the four city gates with boulders. For a moment, the army could not enter the city quickly.

The battle lasted from morning until sunset. Yan Jun slowly controlled the situation.

Soon, the flag on the city tower was replaced by the flag of Yan Kingdom, and the shouting and killing in the city finally disappeared into the night.

Xiao Jingxuan did not rush into the city, but arrived the next day. After the soldiers cleared the city gate, Xiao Jingxuan entered the city under the escort of the pro-army.

Looking at the dilapidated Yizhou City and the numb people on the streets, Xiao Jingxuan didn't know whether he was right or wrong for a while.

After arriving at the main general's mansion, Xiao Jingxuan listened to the battle reports of the soldiers under his command.

In this battle, the resistance of the Zhao army was still relatively stubborn, and the 40,000 Zhao army, in addition to more than 5,000 people who surrendered, almost 4,000 people were captured by exhaustion. The rest of them have already died on the battlefield.

Xiao Jingxuan knew that the reason why Zhao Jun's resistance was so fierce was related to his long-range strikes for more than 20 days.

Looking at the generals around him, Xiao Jingxuan began to issue his own military orders, and Zhang Siming temporarily patrolled Yizhou.

All the captives were sent to serve in the Guardianship, and they were not pardoned. As for all the generals above the team, not one remained, and all of them were killed.

Xiao Jingxuan's order can be described as cruel, but in such a brutal battle, the two sides have already formed a mortal enemy, and it is better to settle it once and for all.
