But Wang Rong had already had correspondence with the old wolf, and the old wolf may be inferior to the iron tower and sledgehammer in the charge, but he is a dual-use talent for military and political purposes.

When Yin He and Song Wenbai seized Youzhou Dai County, Jizhou Changshan County and Zhongshan County respectively, Lang Zeqing was not idle.

After Lang Zeqing led the first division from the west of Linhe County to Guanzhong, in addition to defeating the local powerful families, he also continued to send people to various parts of Guanzhong to win over the powerful people in Guanzhong.

Compared with the benevolence of Youguo and Ji to the people under their rule, the court of Guanzhong Yongguo at this time obviously didn't care about it.

In order to be able to gather more forces to resist the attack of the state army, Qin Xu, who was sitting on the throne in the city of Xu, completely tore off his mask, what kind of benevolent monarch, Ming Jun, if his life is gone, even the tyrant will do it. He frantically recruited the men of Sanfu, whether it was a young child who was taller than a wheel, or an old man with gray hair, as long as he could move, he pulled the strong man to gather in the city.

Not only men, but also women, as long as they are not disgusting at the sight, young women are all sent by him to loot into the city for the soldiers defending the city to play.

During the period when Qin Xu became the puppet emperor, he claimed to be the orthodoxy of Dayong, and when he treated other countries in the Central Plains, he always looked like he was a powerful country. To put it bluntly, Yelang is arrogant and boasts of being tough.

Now, in addition to being arrogant, Qin Xuan has also become particularly cruel. Since the successive defeats in Ji County and Yong County, his prestige has fallen to the bottom, and the whole person has begun to become suspicious.

The fourth prince Qin Xuan has always been a supporter of Qin Xu, when the three princes competed for the throne in the city, it was he who led the Yong army in the Lantian camp to attack the city, and when the Tiger Army and the Yulin Army had not reacted, they took away control of the city.

After Qin Xuan ascended the throne and became emperor, in order to repay Qin Xuan's kindness, he specially gave Qin Xuan as the king of Liang, the general of the chariot and cavalry, the Zongren Mansion Zongren Order, and the prince Taibao.

Qin Wei won this honor, not arrogant and complacent, but very familiar with the military power in his hands, the Yong army of the Lantian battalion was handed over to Qin Xu's cronies to command, and he himself entered the court to participate in politics.

But the change in the situation caught everyone off guard, and after two years of campaigning, the Guanzhong Imperial Court completely overdrew its own strength to conduct a three-line battle, and the defeat of the state, the siege of Ji County, and the defeat of Yongxian County, so that the generals of the Guanzhong Imperial Court were swept away by more than half.

As a last resort, Qin Xuan had no choice but to let his fourth brother change from a civilian official to a military general in charge of the army, but not the soldiers and horses of the Lantian battalion, but the soldiers and horses of the Bashang battalion. At the same time, Qin Wei was appointed as the defense envoy of the city, and was fully responsible for the defense of the city.

Qin Xuan looked at Qin Xu's absurd and tyrannical orders, and obviously felt that his second brother had changed, and he was no longer the high-spirited emperor he was more than a year ago.

"What are you talking nonsense here?!"

With an angry roar and the sound of a wine cup shattering, Qin Xu, wearing a red-striped and gold-rimmed dragon robe on a black background, stood behind the table, staring at Qin Xuan who was standing below and bowing.

Qin Xuan's neck stiffened, and he repeated his words just now: "Imperial brother, young children and old people should not be conscripted as soldiers at this time, these people have no combat effectiveness, and once they are not handled well, they will bring chaos to the city. Also, the younger brother wants to ask the imperial brother to take back his order, not to forcibly conscript women into military prostitutes, the way to govern the army......

Qin Xuan directly waved his hand and interrupted, "Don't talk to me about any way to govern the army! Take a look at these military reports for yourself! Wang Rong, this thief didn't even think about giving you time to train the army! Recruit these people into the city, as long as they can block the state army outside the city, come to a few siege battles, and die a few times, the rest are elite soldiers, isn't this much faster than training? If you don't force these people into the city, then it would be nice to leave it to the state army?!"

Qin Wei looked at the military newspapers that were thrown down from the table by Qin Xu, he didn't bend down to pick them up, he already knew the news on these military newspapers, it was nothing more than where and where it was lost again, and where it surrendered again.

Qin Xuan looked at the hysterical Qin Xu, turned around and left the hall silently, and went to run an errand worriedly.

Qin Xuan looked at Qin Xuan's departing back and sat on the dragon chair panting. The Yellow Gate Ling Li standing on the side

Er, hurriedly approached in small steps, stretched out his hand and kept caressing Qin Xu's back, and complained to Qin Xu: "King Liang is too ignorant, the will of the sage, that is, the golden mouth and jade words, how can there be a reason to change the order day and night."

Qin Xuan gasped, and his gaze became gloomy and fierce: "He thinks that the situation in Dayong is critical now, and only he, the King of Liang and the Great General, can turn the tide, which is really hateful!" It's too much of a deception!"

Li Yi just served Qin Xuan silently, and didn't dare to say a word nonsense. At this moment, a guard entered the room and reported: "Enlightened saint! King Liang has released all the old people and children he has recruited!".

Qin Xuan listened to the guard's report, and he was about to go crazy, but this matter was already in the boat, if he went to recruit the old man and children again, and didn't wait for the state army to come, this city would be in chaos.

Qin Xuan had no choice but to raise his hand, suppress his anger, and said, "I know, you go down."

Things like this are constantly happening between Qin Xuan and Qin Xuan, as long as it is Qin Xuan's will that is wrong, he will either not do it or abandon it. made Qin Xu's dissatisfaction with him more and more intense, coupled with the slanderous words of Li Yi and other female officials.

Just when Lang Zeqing took Liyang, he received the news of the change in the city, Qin Xuan was angry, surrounded the mansions of the four princes and the six princes, and then began to slaughter his own brothers and nephews like slaughtering animals, and the female dependents in the two princes' mansions were punished as military prostitutes for the soldiers in the city to play.

When Lang Zeqing received this report, his whole person was numb, he looked at Wu Xinghan on the side, and said with a wry smile: "Is this Qin Xuan crazy? At this time, the four princes and the six princes are executed, and he is not afraid of chaos in the city?"

Wu Xinghan shook his head and said, "Qin Xuan is crazy if he has any gains or losses, I don't know, but Xushan City is definitely going to be chaotic, there are powerful families in the city who support the four princes and the six princes, Qin Xuan is so moody, once the method of joint sitting is implemented, it will be a catastrophe for these powerful families."

Lang Zeqing raised his hand and touched the beard on his chin, and said, "Send a message to Ma Yuansi and Shao Hongxuan, we will meet in Weicheng, and then cross the Weishui River and go south to surround Xuxi."

The news that the Bingzhou army had arrived in Weicheng made the city even more chaotic, which was already chaotic because of the death of the two princes.

There will be *** burning incidents in the city every day, but the army in the city was ordered to stay in the barracks and the city, watching their homes burned down, their wives and daughters being insulted, and their parents and sons being killed. The morale of the Yongjun army in the city can be said to have plummeted.

Qin Xu's actions caused many wealthy families to resent, and the officials in the court were even more resentful. At the same time, Lang Zeqing used the Department of Detective Affairs to secretly contact and rebel against these struggling officials who were on the verge of life and death, and made full preparations for the capture of the city.

When the grain and grass were also in place, Lang Zeqing's preparations for the capture of Xushan City were completely sufficient, so naturally he didn't need ink. The 200,000 Bingzhou troops used the boats they had recruited and rushed to cross the Weishui, and the mighty fleet was like a black curtain spread on the clear surface of the Weishui.

As early as after the Bingzhou army entered Yongzhou, they received a letter written to them by Wang Rong himself, detailing the key to the expedition to Yongzhou, and at the same time determining Lang Zeqing as the commander of the Yongzhou Front Army, giving him the right to make his own decisions.

Lang Zeqing is on the front line and knows the situation on the front line best. Wang Rong is not unwary of military generals, and many of the generals and colonels next to the division commander and brigade commander are his cronies.

But beware is beware, he never interferes with the commander's decision-making power at the front, he never jokes about this.

And Lang Zeqing also lived up to Wang Rong's expectations, he commanded the battle, not to attack and seize hard, but to use propaganda as the main attack. At the same time, Qin Xu's commotion also provided an assist to Lang Zeqing's persuasion, so that most of the counties in Yongzhou were all in one go, without much effort.

After crossing the Weishui, Lang Zeqing won a victory. It turned out that after the death of the fourth prince, Wei Zhonghui re-presided over the defense of Xucheng City, but Qin Xu's series of operations brought him *** annoyance, and the bad news was one after another, but he was annoyed, and the state army gathered in Weicheng to give him

Brought a lot of pressure.

The news of the forced crossing of Weishui by the Bingzhou army came quickly, and Wei Zhonghui was finally relieved, he was not afraid that the Bingzhou army would move, he was afraid that the Bingzhou army would not move, so as to drag him down, and then send another surprise army to carry out a sneak attack.

Wei Zhonghui personally took the elite in the city of Xu, and after consulting Qin Xu, he went north to defend against the enemy, set up a formation at the Thorn Gate, and blocked the way of the Bingzhou army. Lang Zeqing tentatively attacked several times to no avail.

In the face of Wei Zhonghui's defense line, Lang Zeqing, the commander of Zhengyong, actually grew the ambition of others, and sighed with emotion: "Wei Zhonghui is worthy of being the general of Dayong, with him, he is drunk, and it is not easy to attack!"

As a result, Lang Zeqing no longer bothered with the Thorn Gate, and personally led the first and fourth divisions to be stationed outside the Yongjun camp in Thorn Gate, and sent Wu Xinghan and Shao Hongxuan to lead the soldiers and horses of the fifth and sixth divisions to cross Weishui from other places and attack Huaili and Hongmen.

Wu Xinghan led his troops to attack Huaili, and Shao Hongxuan attacked Hongmen. Wu Xinghan's Fifth Division was progressing well, Huaili was close to Weishui, not far from Weicheng, and after the state army arrived in Weicheng, Huaili County became precarious, like ripe peaches, ready to be picked at any time.

And Qin Xuan was defeated several times, his prestige was completely lost, and he was brutal and unkind, and he lost the hearts of the people of Yongguo, so Huaili surrendered without decent resistance.

And Shao Hongxuan encountered strong resistance when he captured Hongmen along the way. Hongmen is not far from the big camp of Yongguo, it is the focus of Yongguo's garrison, although there is no city defense here, but the camp is built very strongly.

Defending here is He Bing, the former fierce general of the Anton Army, he only has more than 10,000 soldiers in his hands, so he has to choose a critical place to arrange properly, and he does not go out of the camp to fight, and the strong wall does not come out, just waiting for the state army to attack.
