The battle in the valley finally put an end to this pursuit of the Great Prince.

Fortunately, the great prince has a heart of love and talent, and Li Ziyu, the general of Yuezhou, finally saved his life. And Xu Lang did not pursue too much, all the troops surrendered, all asked what they wanted, and those who were willing to stay were filled into the army, and the amount was used, and each was in its place, and those who did not want to be sent back to their hometowns did not leave difficulties.

As for the eldest prince and the princess, Xu Langli sent people to escort them all the way to Xiangyang to meet with the lord of Ruoqing, and at the same time, quickly informed the British king Gui Yunzheng, who had conquered Nanyang Mansion, of the incident.

Zhu Yunfei is still the chief general of Yiling, responsible for maintaining friendly relations with the Tusi of Miaojiang. Two days later, Sun Da, Ni Zhongyi, and Zeng Dalong led their troops to Yiling, and Li Wenzhong and He Huairen also sent troops to help, but they ran empty. In the end, Sun Da and Ni Zhongyi were left to assist Zhu Yunfei in Yiling.

In addition, for Jiang Shen, Xu Lang sent someone to escort him to Hengshan, and the Hengshan faction handled it himself.

Three days later, Xu Lang took Li Ziyu, Qin Tianci, Zeng Dalong Ganxiong and the generals under his tent to go down to Yuezhou again, wanting to go north from here and knock on Ezhou. As for the Xuan father and son in Wuling County, Xu Lang received a letter from Ling Yue, the general of Ganzhou, saying that he had sent troops to the campaign.

As a result, the war in Changsha County came to an end. And Zheng Baye and Bai Yunzhen have nothing to do anyway, and they are happy to follow each other all the way.

……

After talking about Xu Lang's southern expedition to Changsha County, let's talk about the battle situation in Nanyang Mansion.

Last time, I said that before the defeat of the Xinye army, Ning Hou had fled to Nanyang Mansion by himself. Later, Dema Jun reported in a hurry, and sent most of the Nanyang Mansion soldiers to Xinye, but was defeated by Wang Liang in the middle of the road, so under the repeated defeats, the total strength of Nanyang Mansion, full of battles, was less than 30,000 people.

In this way, when the British king's three-way army gathered under the city of Nanyang Mansion, Ning Hou knew that he was not his opponent, and only symbolically resisted, so he abandoned the city five days later and ran to the Shang capital.

At that time, General Jin Ba, who had sent troops from Tongguan, had already finished recuperating and sent troops to Luoyang with high morale. However, General Jin Ba strictly followed the strategy of the British king, and did not rashly engage in a decisive battle with him, but used flexible tactics to drag the defenders of Luoyang to the death in the area of Zhongzhou, so that they could not go to Nanyang in time to rescue.

Therefore, after the other Wei Wu army approached Kaifeng, in fact, in the Central Plains, only Shangdu, Luoyang and Xuchang above Nanyang Mansion were temporarily retained in the hands of the imperial court.

For Ning Hou, their passage to the north of the capital will become even narrower. But in any case, the most influential territory in Zhongzhou is still in their hands. Therefore, if he runs away again and again, I am afraid it will not only be a matter of being ridiculed by the world.

Therefore, when Jin Ba and Wei Wu were approaching from the left and the right, Ning Hou also urgently raised funds, on the one hand, he strictly ordered the Luoyang General's Mansion and the Shangdu General's Mansion to consolidate the city defense, increase the recruitment of troops, and establish the determination to defend to the death, and on the other hand, he hurriedly reported the situation here to the Beijing Division.

A major war related to the general trend of the Central Plains and even the general trend of the world is about to break out.

And the British king Gui Yunzheng, who defeated Nanyang Mansion, has been expanded again, and the total number of troops has reached 250,000. With the military discipline that has not committed any offense with the Minqiu along the way, the invincible record of this road, the aura of the beggar gang leader, and the help of the disciples of the beggar gang and the people in the chivalrous way from all over the country, the soldiers under the command of the British king are highly motivated, and they are eager to enter the capital and capture King Jing alive.

Of course, the situation is still far from optimistic. After all, Miyang, Shenzhou, Xinyang, Chenzhou and other places are still in the hands of the imperial court, and Ezhou, which is on the other side, is still unclear.
