Chapter 140: Turning Defeat into Victory (8)

Zhuge Shuang surrendered to Huangchao, Yang Fuguang fled, Xuzhou was lost, and so many people were lost, which made Qi Kerang very anxious.

Qi Kerang was in a hurry, and suddenly heard people outside shouting horses.

Someone came to report: "Qi Dashuai, it's not good, Huang Chao, Zhu Wen, and Zhuge Shuang's brigade is coming!" ”

……

Huang Chao, Zhu Wen, and Zhuge Shuang came to kill, and Qi Kerang had no choice but to face it.

Qi Kerang started a big battle with Huang Chao, Zhu Wen, and Zhuge Shuang.

Where can Qi Kerang beat Huang Chao, Zhu Wen, and Zhuge Shuang?

Qi Kerang was defeated by Huang Chao, Zhu Wen, and Zhuge Shuang.

In the end, Qi Kerang was killed by Huang Chao, and some of Qi Kerang's people surrendered, some died in battle, and some did not know where to go.

……

Huang Chao occupied Xuzhou and killed Qi Kerang.

The Yellow Nest won a big victory.

After Huang Chao's victory, he discussed with Zhu Wen and Zhuge Shuang what to do next?

Zhu Wen suggested abandoning Xuzhou and developing to the south.

Zhu Wen said:

"The brigade of the imperial court is coming to fight, Xuzhou is surrounded by enemies, Xuzhou is not easy to defend, we can't sit still here, I suggest abandoning Xuzhou to develop south.

There is a strong enemy Gao Siji in the north of Xuzhou, and there is a strong enemy Li Keyong in the northwest of Xuzhou.

There is no strong enemy in the south, and I think it is the best strategy to develop south.

Abandoning Xuzhou to develop to the south is also conducive to recruiting more people.

We don't move in Xuzhou, only some people around Xuzhou can take refuge in us, and people who are far away from Xuzhou generally don't come to vote.

Who will vote for us if people are thousands of miles away?

We are developing south, and we can expand our team as we grow.

Back then, Pang Xun was expanding the team while developing. ”

Huang Chao saw that what Zhu Wen said was reasonable.

Huang Chao said, "Okay." Abandon Xuzhou to develop southward. ”

Zhu Wen's suggestion, Zhuge Shuang also agreed.

……

Huang Chao listened to Zhu Wen's advice, he abandoned Xuzhou, and he led a large group of men and horses to the south.

Where to go south?

Huang Chao wants to hit Hongzhou first.

……

Huang Chao called himself the "Soaring General", and he led a large team of men and horses to Hongzhou to kill.

To get to Hongzhou, you need to pass through some small counties and smaller cities.

Huang Chao will fight when he sees the county seat, and he will fight when he sees the city.

At this time, Huang Chao already had an army of 50,000, and his strength was already big enough.

At this time, Huangchao hit a small county town and a small city.

……

On this day, Huangchao also received a general, Deng Tianwang.

Deng Tianwang is Zhu Wen's master.

His martial arts are high.

He heard that Huangchao had rebelled, so he came to vote.

Huang Chao accepted Deng Tianwang, and there were "four tigers" in his camp: Zhuge Shuang, Deng Tianwang, Huang Chao, and Zhu Wen.

……

On this day, Huangchao's brigade came to Hongzhou.

When Huang Chao came to Hongzhou, his number of men had increased to 100,000.

The envoy of Hongzhou Jiedu is called Song Wei.

Song Wei heard that Huang Chao was coming, and he started a big battle with Huang Chao.

Song Wei is not Huang Chao's opponent.

Song Wei was killed by Huang Chao.

Huang Chao took Hongzhou.

……

Huang Chao took Hongzhou and continued south.

On this day, Huang Chao went to Guangzhou.

When Huang Chao arrived in Guangzhou, his number of men increased to 200,000.

The envoy of the Guangzhou Festival is called Zeng Yuanyu.

Zeng Yuanyu saw that Huangchao's brigade was coming, but he didn't even dare to fight, and directly abandoned the city and fled.

……

After Huang Chao occupied Guangzhou, he went north again.

Go north to Tatan Prefecture.

When Huang Chao arrived in Tanzhou, his men and horses had increased to 300,000.

The envoy of Tanzhou Festival is called Cui Anqian.

Huangchao's brigade came to fight, Cui Anqian was worried, and Liu Chengyong, the second marshal of the imperial court, came to defeat Huangchao.

The imperial court sent Liu Chengyong to lead 200,000 troops to fight Huangchao.

……

Liu Chengyong, Cui Anqian and Huang Chao started a big battle.

Cui Anqian and Liu Chengyong are not Huang Chao's opponents.

Cui Anqian and Liu Chengyong were defeated by Huang Chao.

Cui Anqian and Liu Chengyong were killed by Huang Chao.

Huang Chao occupies Tanzhou.

……

After Huang Chao occupied Tanzhou, he went north to fight Jingzhou.

When Huang Chao arrived in Jingzhou, his men had increased to 500,000.

Jingzhou Jiedu envoy called Linghu to inquire.

Linghu Xun didn't dare to fight with Huang Chao.

Linghu Xun abandoned the city and fled.

Huangchao occupies Jingzhou.

……

After Huang Chao occupied Jingzhou, he left Zhuge Shuang, left 100,000 to guard Jingzhou, and went to Luoyang to kill.

After Huang Chao captured Jingzhou, his strategy changed.

When he conquered Hongzhou, Guangzhou, and Tanzhou, he did not arrange for people to guard them, but only pulled things away from the city.

When he laid down a small county town, a small city, too.

At that time, his strength was not very large, and he was worried that the troops of the next city would not be enough, so he did not leave anyone to defend it.

When he took Jingzhou, his men were already big enough that he didn't want to abandon Jingzhou again.

……

After Huang Chao took Jingzhou, he marched to Luoyang again.

When Huang Chao arrived in Luoyang, his men increased by 700,000.

When Huang Chao arrived in Luoyang, Zheng Yanxiu, the commander of the imperial court's three-way crusade against Huang Chao, also rushed to Luoyang.

The imperial court asked Zheng Yanxiu to lead 200,000 troops to defeat Huangchao.

Zheng Yanxiu and Huang Chao started a big battle.

Zheng Yanxiu only has 200,000 people, where can he beat the 700,000 people in Huangchao?

Zheng Yanxiu was defeated.

Huangchao occupies Luoyang.

……

After Huang Chao occupied Luoyang, he left Zhu Wen and 100,000 people to guard Luoyang, and he went west to fight Chang'an.

Chang'an was the capital of the Tang Dynasty.

Huang Chao wants to take Chang'an.

Huangchao wants to be pushed to the Tang Dynasty.

……

Let's talk about the Tang Dynasty court.

At this time, the court of the Tang Dynasty had been suffering from internal and external troubles for a long time.

After the Huangchao rebellion, Qi Kerang was sent to fight the Huangchao, Qi Kerang was defeated, Liu Chengyong was sent to fight the Huangchao, Liu Chengyong was also defeated, and Zheng Yanxiu was sent to fight the Huangchao, and Zheng Yanxiu was also defeated.

At this time, the Tang Dynasty had no troops to send.

If there are soldiers to send, can the former allow Zheng Yanxiu to lead 200,000 people to fight the 700,000 people of Huangchao?

……

Everything in the imperial court is decided by Prime Minister Tian Lingzi.

As soon as Tian Lingzi heard that Huangchao's brigade was coming to Chang'an, he had nothing to do.

Tian Lingzi couldn't help it.

He had no choice but to take refuge in Shuzhong, the emperor.

He ran away with the emperor.

……

A few days later, Huang Chao's brigade arrived in Chang'an.

Huangchao occupies Chang'an.

……

After Huang Chao occupied Chang'an, he proclaimed himself emperor in Chang'an.

Huang Chao also became the emperor.

……

Let's talk about the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Huang Chao called, and Tian Lingzi took the emperor to take refuge in Shuzhong.

Shuzhong is now Sichuan.

While the emperor walked forward, he was worried.

The emperor thought to himself: Chang'an was occupied by thieves, and the Tang Dynasty was over? The Tang Dynasty was lost in my hands, and I can't live with my ancestors.

Not only the emperor was worried, but Tian Lingzi was also worried.

Tian Lingzi understands that Huang Chao will not just occupy Chang'an and finish the matter, Huang Chao will also kill the emperor and himself.

Tian Lingzi thought to himself: What should I do if Huangchao fights Shuzhong again?

……

The emperor was walking forward, and a person was chasing after him.

The man chased and shouted: "The emperor stays." The emperor stayed, and the ministers had something to say. ”

When the emperor saw someone shouting behind him, he waved his hand at the people around him.

The emperor's carriage and horses stopped.

The people behind chased after him.

The people behind saluted the emperor: "The ministers pay their respects to the emperor." ”

The emperor didn't know the person who was chasing.

The emperor asked, "Who are you?" ”

The person who chased replied: "The minister is Yang Fuguang." ”
