If the end of the Battle of Changping is just an appetizer, then the next land grabbing is the real highlight.

The Zhongzhou soldiers, who had received the order, crossed the front line as quickly as possible, went straight to the second county seat of Yong'an County, and soon caught up with the large army of bandits.

To say that the large army of Xu Shan bandits is unlucky, it is really unlucky, not to mention that the leader Xu Shan is dead, and the other commander, Feng Dian, not only does not help, but backhand is a knife in the back.

When they reacted, one of the two counties they occupied had already been taken, and Feng Dian's team had no intention of stopping, and quickly came towards Yong'an County.

Xu Shan's subordinates could use a large army of less than 20,000 bandits, so they were flanked back and forth and fought directly.

It's not that they don't know the times and insist on resisting to the end, but Feng Dian and Zhongzhou soldiers never gave them the intention of surrendering at all, and they fought as soon as they came into contact.

Looking at the momentum, he just wanted to completely exterminate the bandit team in Xu Shan's hands, and this bandit was wiped out, and it was Su Qi'an's side that benefited the most.

After destroying this team, the bandits of 50,000 were at least almost half, which reduced the threat to Zhongzhou by half for Su Ji and Li Chongxiang.

It stands to reason that Feng Dian should mainly absorb them, so that they can increase their own strength, and Feng Dian does not understand this reason.

It is not to help Su Ji and Li Chongxiang, Feng Dian naturally has his own considerations.

On the bright side, the incorporation of Xu Shan's bandit team will do no harm to Feng Dianbaili, but it ignores a fatal point, who can guarantee that this huge number of bandit teams will be loyal to Feng Dian after being co-opted.

Who can guarantee that there will be henchmen loyal to Xu Shan hidden in this team?

These people usually don't look like much, but once Feng Dian wants to have a big fight with Su Ji and Li Chongxiang later, who can guarantee that these people will not be bribed and turn back halfway?

Therefore, the long pain is better than the short pain, instead of being absorbed, simply annihilated Xu Shan's team together with the Zhongzhou soldiers.

If you want to be ruthless, you have to be ruthless to the end, Feng Dian will never allow people to rebel in his own team, if nearly 20,000 bandits are wiped out, it will indeed have a great loss to his overall strength.

But in the long run, his own people are loyal and reliable, and the fewer the troops, the fewer the troops, Feng Dianyao's subordinates must be absolutely loyal to him.

During this period of truce with Su Ji and Li Chongxiang, Feng Dian was not idle, and he had already expanded his manpower on his own territory.

Although there are not many troops, only four or five thousand people, at least it can ensure that these people are loyal and reliable, not afraid of death, and have strength.

These people are not bandits, they are recruiting from young adults, so that they are loyal and reliable, it is very simple, these people have relatives and friends, if they betray Feng Dian, even if they run away, they will be fine, their relatives and friends will not be able to run away.

This is the weakness of controlling young adults, and holding these weaknesses in your hands can basically do the same.

After Feng Dian's training, there must be some gap between the polemic power and the Zhongzhou soldiers, but compared with ordinary bandits, it is definitely a big cut.

In controlling them with weakness, these young adults must work very hard, and naturally they are not afraid of death.

This time, he grabbed territory and successfully won one of the two counties of Xushan, and the 5,000 young and middle-aged people recruited by this team contributed a lot.

Therefore, with these people here, it is normal for Xu Shan's team of 20,000 bandits to be abandoned.

After surrendering to no avail, the bandit team left behind by Xu Shan could only do the last resort.

This kind of outbreak, to a certain extent, did slow down the offensive, but under the front and back of Feng Dian and Zhongzhou soldiers, these bandit teams, with the passage of time, finally fell into disadvantage.

The bandits around him fell one by one, and the circle of surrounds was shrinking.

After half a day of encirclement and suppression, Xu Shan's nearly 20,000 bandits in the two counties were finally completely wiped out.

In a place about the size of a county's suburbs, at a glance, there were corpses all over the ground, blood flowed from the entire ground, and a disgusting smell of blood emanated from the air.

On both sides of the corpses on the ground, there were countless figures, the leader was drenched in blood, the big knife in his hand was curled, and there was obviously a little tired look on his face.

Fighting with 20,000 bandits, even if they are flanked back and forth, but before they die, they can often burst out with a strong will, and this kind of slaughter is very difficult in the end.

In order to completely exterminate this bandit, both sides are well prepared, and until the last moment, they will definitely not fight in close combat.

The biggest contribution in this battle is the long-range crossbowmen, if there is no crossbowmen desperate shooting, it is really necessary to fight face-to-face, and at least 10,000 casualties on both sides.

After half a day of strangulation, it can be regarded as gnawing this small hard bone, but the extermination of Xu Shan's bandit team does not mean that this battle is over.

Even though the air was filled with disgusting blood, and there were dead bodies lying all over the place in front of them, the eyes of the leaders of both sides were still full of killing intent.

Xu Shan's bandit team was wiped out, this was just a prelude, and the next was the time to fight with Feng Dian's team.

Time passed minute by minute, neither side had the intention of striking first, and the half-day fight consumed a lot of their physical strength.

Both sides were hurrying to rest, just looking at each other through the dead bodies all over the ground.

This kind of rest only lasted for about a stick of incense, and with the rapid sound of wind-breaking arrows in his ears, followed by a shout, "Brothers, for the sake of Zhongzhou, kill me!" ”

instantly ignited the fighting spirit of the people on both sides, and the next moment, against the rain of arrows, they rushed towards both sides.

A fierce battle has been fought again.

If the recovery of Changping means that Su Ji and Li Chongxiang have a larger buffer zone, then the seizure of Yong'an County means that they have more defense in depth.

The entire six counties of Zhongzhou, except for Yong'an County in the middle, which is mountainous and meandering, the remaining five counties are all vast plains.

This kind of terrain, in peacetime, no one can look down on it at all, after all, it is not suitable for growing grain, and the grain production is also small, compared with the five counties of the vast plain, who would pay attention to such a Yong'an County that has no advantages.

But once a war breaks out, the geographical location of Yong'an County is particularly prominent, and it can be said that whoever occupies Yong'an County has half a chance to win Zhongzhou.

At the beginning, Xu Shan took advantage of the chaos to seize Yong'an, which made Feng Dian unhappy, but he could not send troops on a large scale, otherwise it would destroy the cooperation between the two sides.

For the sake of the overall situation, Feng Dian could only occasionally send a small group of men and horses to harass from time to time, that is, to distract himself from dealing with the harassing men and horses, so that Xu Shan could not concentrate all his forces and continue to crusade against Qinghe and Beishan.

It can be said that Feng Dian's small actions invisibly gave Su Ji and Li Chongxiang a help, and the three parties were on guard against each other and on guard against each other, which briefly achieved a relatively fragile stability in Zhongzhou.

But if Feng Dian sincerely cooperates, the trouble is Su Ji and Li Chongxiang.

Who knew that in the peace talks later, Feng Dian was so ruthless, stabbed him in the back, and seized Xu Shan's territory.

For a time, Zhongzhou became more complicated.

But no matter how complicated it is, as long as whoever can take Yongan County in an all-round way, who has the possibility of taking Zhongzhou.

Feng Dian's stab in the back, the ultimate goal is Yong'an County.

And Su Ji and Li Chongxiang are also bound to win Yong'an County, and it is impossible for both sides to back down.

Now that the swords and soldiers have met, there is no possibility of stopping, it depends on who is stronger.

Of the seven counties of Yong'an County today, each side occupies three counties, and now it is the last county of Yong'an County.

Not to mention anything else, the county with the same name as the county has a much higher status than other counties, and this county is a county directly under Yongan County.

There are many commanding heights of natural terrain in the territory, which can overlook the county town of Yong'an, which can be described as condescending.

Therefore, whoever takes this county has the possibility of taking Yongan County, and the people on both sides are fighting fiercely at this moment.

As soon as he made contact, he was already red-eyed, and he went straight to the white heat, although the Zhongzhou soldiers were brave and good at fighting, but Feng Dian's people were not bad.

After many rounds of battlefield baptism, who can survive is not the best.

And in order to take Yong'an County, Feng Dian's men and horses poured out, gathered nearly 30,000 people, and all of them were pulled to the front line.

The Zhongzhou soldiers who fought to meet the enemy were only 8,000 people, and under this kind of white-hot fierce battle, the Zhongzhou soldiers were obviously overstretched.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Su Ji and Li Chongxiang led Wang Jiu and other 2,000 young and middle-aged people to reinforce in time.

The two big men in Zhongzhou, against the rain of arrows, rushed to the front line, without speaking, everyone saw the appearance of the two, and even more powerful war intent erupted.

Each gave up their lives and continued to fight hard, with the help of two thousand young and middle-aged people, the Zhongzhou soldiers barely stabilized their positions in this fight.

The battle is heating up again.

At this time, Feng Dian, who was sitting in the rear, looked at the military reports that kept coming back in his hand with a gloomy face, thinking that this quick battle could be won smoothly, but he still underestimated the appeal of Su Ji and Li Chongxiang.

was able to encourage the local people to come to the war, you must know that in order to train the young adults in his hands, he wasted a lot of effort and directly threatened their families, which had some effect.

But Su Ji and Li Chongxiang stood on the front line, and directly infected the local people with the so-called top on the front line, making them so willing to sacrifice their lives and forget about death, it is false to say that they are not envious.

But now is not the time for envy, since the two sides meet each other, they can only fight to the death.

But the military report that came back now was in a stalemate, and this stalemate lasted for a long time, which would only be unfavorable to Feng Dian.

The participation of the people of Changping County in the war has long been spread, if Feng Dian can't annihilate these people in one fell swoop, after a long time, who can guarantee that the people everywhere will not follow suit.

If the people of all counties and counties follow suit, it will be really bad, the power of the people Feng Dian knows better than anyone else, so for now, no matter what, he has to stop this from happening.

Suddenly, Feng Dian turned his head and said to his subordinates behind him, "Has Chu Qing come back?" ”
