"Brother Mu Xi, with your grades, you can stay in the Hanlin Academy, why did you also sign up for this Bian'an County to replace the original magistrate?"

"Brother Heyi, I don't believe you didn't receive the news, is it that simple this time?

What are you doing at Hallym Academy? Drafting official documents every day, but also accompanied by the king like a tiger, although talking about weight, but the risk is also great, how many new scholars are directly planted in this position in each imperial examination?

It's better to come here, but I've heard that the Holy Lord is very fond of this time, although on the surface it seems to be a loss, the good Hanlin Academy does not go, and comes here to be a magistrate.

But we have to understand a truth, who should we please the most when we enter the court as officials? Isn't that Your Majesty?

And His Majesty's eyes are here now, as long as you do a good job here, let Your Majesty's purpose be achieved, and let Your Majesty remember you, that is Jian Zai Dixin, which is much more useful than what you do in Hanlin Academy!

Dare you say you're not here for this? ”

The other Jinshi who was called Heyi stopped talking, he naturally received the news that this time the imperial court really intends to completely take back the control of Bian'an, in order to be able to completely eliminate the Zhao family's control of Bian'an County, all the current chief officials of Bian'an County need to be replaced.

And just after the end of the Spring Festival, they have one more way out.

Naturally, they entered the Hanlin Academy without receiving the news, and those who received the news invited themselves to Bian'an, and those who didn't know would really think that they were here for the ideal of governing the country and leveling the world in their hearts.

Just half a month ago, when the Zhao family began to form an army, Zhao Duan's patience with the Zhao family reached its limit, and he immediately summoned his ministers to completely uproot the Zhao family.

And if the Zhao family is uprooted, the degree of control of the Zhao family's Bian'an County will inevitably cause chaos in Bian'an County.

In order to avoid this situation, Zhao Dan simply directly gave this year's new science and technology scholars an additional way out, that is, let them come here to replace the original governors of various prefectures and counties.

Three years, it only takes three years, and after the imperial court sends people to take charge of these prefectures and counties again, these Jinshi who have taken the initiative to apply here can be transferred back to Beijing immediately.

And their grades are automatically upgraded by three levels when they are transferred back, which is the compensation given to them by the imperial court.

And if there is a chance of promotion in the future, they will report it together with the same period, which is definitely their better chance.

In short, this is a gilded tour.

But everyone who has some connections in the family is crowded in.

And Li Dingguo's side, after dealing with the Pingwu Army, did not stop there, but directly took advantage of the Pingwu Army to go straight to Heyue City.

No matter how many lackeys sent by the Zhao family they solve, they may not be able to help the testimony, and the people of Huangshan Mansion will not be harmed, so the best way is to directly pinch out the source of the problem!

Just dispose of the Zhao family.

Moreover, the news from Bianjing has also come, the Japanese army has entered, and they are responsible for cleaning up the rest of the Zhao family's forces in the entire Bian'an County, they only need to fight Yuecheng to deal with the Zhao family's lair.

So in this way, he took the three people from the palace, including the high father-in-law, and Li Dingguo took more than 20,000 people to Heyue City.

The more than 200,000 miners brought from Daxing County before began to secretly want to transport them in batches in northern Jiangsu County under the arrangement of Feiyun Commercial Bank, and the rest were directly used as auxiliary soldiers and taken by Li Dingguo to Heyue County together, and Feiyun Commercial Bank would continue to transport them away in batches on the way.

Over there, He Xini of Daxing County heard that the embankment of the Bianhe River had been built, and was waiting with great anticrity for the return of his 200,000 people.

It's just that he didn't know that he was destined to wait in vain.

In mid-May, Li Dingguo came to Heyue City with an army of 20,000, and he no longer disguised it, and directly let the 10,000 Tatars ride on the war horse.

Heyue City, after hundreds of years of stability, was besieged by a large army for the next time.

Seven thousand foot soldiers blocked the north gate of Heyue Mansion City, and thirteen thousand cavalry galloped back and forth around the entire Heyue City, besieging Heyue City.

The Zhao family naturally knew about such a big movement, and the Zhao family immediately carried out a purge operation on Heyue City as soon as they learned of the defeat of the Zhao family's army, completely turning the entire Heyue Mansion City into the territory of the Zhao family, and then quickly integrated the forces in the city to form a city defense team of more than 5,000 people and began to prepare various materials for defending the city.

Although they are now besieged, the Zhao family is not panicking, they are ready, and there is such a strong city as Heyuefu City as a defense, they think that the Ping Wa army alone will not be able to help them.

Moreover, Zhao Ansheng, the head of the Zhao family, has already begun to mobilize forces from all the Zhao family branches in the county to let them come to support.

With the strength of the Zhao family in Bian'an County, Zhao Ansheng was confident that he would be able to gather at least 30,000 troops within half a month.

When the time comes, it will be time for their Zhao family to fight back, and he must let this Ping Wei army know how their Zhao family can be called a family!

After that, the entire Bian'an County was cut off from the outside world, and when Li Dingguo led the army to besiege the city, even a bird didn't want to fly out of the city, and directly beat it down to feed the soldiers.

He did not rush to attack the city, but just surrounded the entire city of Heyue, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

In other parts of Bian'an County, due to the loss of the news of the main line, the forces of the Zhao family in various places are fighting separately, and under the sweep of the Japanese army one by one, the Zhao family's forces in Bian'an County were pulled out one by one, and the local officials, regardless of whether they have anything to do with the Zhao family or not, would rather kill the mistake and not let go of all of them.

Half a month, at the end of May, the imperial court's cleaning of the entire Bian'an County finally reached the final stage.

After the last county town with a branch of the Zhao family was dealt with, the Japanese army also rushed towards Heyue Mansion.

The attack on Heyue Mansion has been prepared for a long time, and the Pingwa army will attack the city together with the Japanese army.

The imperial court also took this opportunity to compare the Ping Wa army with the Japanese army, wanting to see which of the two sides was more powerful.

On the first day of June, early in the morning.

The morning fog had not yet lifted, and outside the city of Heyue Prefecture, a fiery red appeared on the horizon in the distance.

"Report!

Seven miles from the rear of our army, an army of nearly 30,000 men was approaching. ”

There was no need for his subordinates to report, and Li Dingguo, who had received the support for the Japanese army early and would be able to reach Heyue Mansion this morning, was already waiting outside the tent.

Now I have seen that fiery red with my own eyes.

Immediately ordered: "Command the whole army, the whole army!" Prepare for battle! ”

It's not that he's making a fuss, although he knows that the Japanese army won't attack them, but in the final analysis, the two sides belong to two armies, and the necessary precautions still need to be there, like the kind that doesn't even do defense, thinking that the boss is a family, then they must be in a group, and they don't know how they died!

The herald received the order and took the order to leave, and soon the entire Pingwa army was organized into a military formation and put on a posture of preparing for war.

Li Dingguo also rode to the front of the army, and looked at the Japanese army who was approaching from afar.
