The rough results of the battle were quickly counted.

This time, taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, he suddenly attacked the killer and achieved a brilliant victory, beheading more than 1,200 people, capturing more than 800 people, and the rest of the thieves were scattered - their fate was not much better, the surroundings of Luoyang were fine, and if they went a little further, the marshals of Wubao and the owners of the manor would all arrest them and become a member of the manor slave group, and not many could return to Hebei.

Mi Huang was very satisfied with this result, and laughed as soon as he saw Shao Xun: "I expected to win this battle, but I didn't expect to win so neatly." Shao Jun rushed left and right, killing and injuring many people, ranking first in his work. ”

Shao Xun smiled modestly and said, "It's just that you are unprepared." The thieves are not elite soldiers, and with this result, it is an ordinary thing. ”

"It's not as simple as Xiao Langjun said." Mi Huang sighed with emotion and said: "I just asked the generals and learned that Xiao Langjun took the lead, and he killed the enemy in embarrassment. If you were a different person, you might be able to win, but you would never be able to win so neatly. Merit is meritorious, and I will definitely report it to Sikong. ”

Shao Xun smiled again and didn't say anything.

What is the use of retribution? It's just a reward for money, and there is no official position for him at this time. What's more, he is too young and promoted too quickly, which is easy to cause other people's chatter - he is not the king of the Sima clan or the son of the big family, and he can lead the army in his twenties.

When Mi Huang said this, He Lun and Wang Bing came together.

Wang Bing didn't say anything yet, but He Lun was really convinced, and only listened to him: "Two hundred Xuanfeng broke into the camp and turned the three thousand thieves upside down. When I arrive with the army, we will have to clean up the mess. This battle was convincing. ”

He Lun is a general of the army, he has spoken, and Wang Bing can only echo two sentences: "Where you are brave and brave, it is difficult to find in the world, and I also accept it." ”

The sedan chair was carried by everyone.

Shao Xun is so brave, they can also share some benefits, after all, the three thousand kingdom army is a whole.

So, one after another, the officers came to pay a visit and said a few words of compliment, whether sincere or false.

Of course, Shao Xun will not believe it all.

He Lun and Wang Bing were in a stirred mood, and they would certainly say some beautiful words. But when it comes to the specific conflict of interests, it will calm down, and what should be done or what will happen.

Man, you have to distinguish between what is true and what is false—well, half-truths, or words that are true and false when you are entangled and hesitated.

Yang Bao was the last, and after everyone had almost dispersed, he came over mysteriously and said in a low voice: "Sima, the generals are full of praise for you, and even bow and worship, saying that they will follow you in the future, and they don't want to go back to the original team." ”

"That's it?" Shao Xun picked up the cowhide bladder, took a sip of water, and asked casually.

Yang Bao smiled awkwardly, and then said his true intention: "Sima, these people are so brave and good at fighting, and they all admire you." It is better to ask the lieutenant to come forward, promote them to the rank of captain and chief, integrate them into the army, and eliminate He Lun's people. The people of Luoyang City he recruited were hesitant and timid when they were about to engage in troops, and when they saw that our side was about to win a big victory, they made a move. Their leading officers are not good in the first place, and they should be overthrown. ”

Shao Xun was silent for a while, then smiled and said, "I know your loyalty, but this will not be done yet." ”

"Why?"

"The big war is coming. There are some things that should be done slowly, and you can't be in a hurry. ”

"No." Yang Bao nodded in disappointment.

It's been half a year since he was transferred to the front building, and he hasn't hesitated.

At the beginning, he reported everything trivial and was very diligent. But after two or three months, he gradually came less frequently, and apparently wavered.

But after seeing that Gao Yi was submissive, he changed his position again and came to report for three days.

This slippery head is gone!

"Let's go down, talk to Gao Yi, gather the troops, and let's enter the city." Shao Xun handed the cowhide water bladder to Wu Qian and said.

"No." Yang Bao responded obediently.

After Yang Bao left, Wu Qian couldn't help but ask, "Sima, why did you enter the city?" ”

"The war is over, and the thieves dare not come back. I just heard what the lieutenant said, the thieves on the side of Guangmomen have also been destroyed, and there is nothing to do in the north of the city, so what should I do if I don't enter the city? I'll tell the lieutenant that you can pack up your things. Shao Xun commanded.

"No."

There are only two gates on the north side of Luoyang, the west is called Daxia Gate, and the east is called Guangmo Gate.

The two thousands of soldiers broke up, and the battle on this side was indeed over, as long as a few men and horses were left to guard the gate, the brigade could enter the city.

******

On the royal road inside the leveled Great Xia Gate, thousands of sergeants marched into the city in a neat queue.

The sound of slaughter at the twelve city gates shook the sky, and the sound of blade clashing, arrows breaking through the air, and dying screams were endless, which had already made the people of the city panic.

The Gaomen clan has its own nursing home unit brought from their hometown.

They were armed with the standard weapons of the army, armor, bows, crossbows, swords and guns - the devil knows where they came from.

When they heard the footsteps of the troops, the guards immediately became nervous.

The younger children of the family climbed up to the top of the wall and looked carefully.

The older ones organized servants in the back and gave them rudimentary weapons, which were basically useless, wooden sticks and firewood knives. And not only the male servants, but also some healthy women were holding wooden sticks, with a nervous expression.

As the saying goes, a long illness becomes a good doctor, Luoyang has been plagued so many times, if you don't improve the defense level of your mansion, it will be really stupid - not to mention dealing with the rebels, the current bandits are becoming more and more arrogant, and the trend of crowds is becoming more and more obvious, you have to deal with it, right?

In addition to the Gaomen clan, there are also merchants who enter Beijing.

Don't underestimate them.

At this time, you can't survive without any ability to go through the state and county to do business.

Shi Chong's gang set a bad precedent for robbing merchants, and merchants all over the world will always be a little touched.

The children of the clan and the old knowledge of the township party recruited all the strong and strong, and when they had nothing to do, they practiced the crop style, so as not to encounter bandits and bandits who did not even have the strength to resist.

The resulting increased costs are naturally apportioned to the price of goods. There's no way, the troubled times are like this, let's make do with it, bear with it.

The entry of the army of the East China Sea Kingdom into the city made the merchant guards very nervous. Some people even took out a strong crossbow from under the car that was strictly forbidden to flow into the people, stared at the intersection, and secretly begged not to have unknown big-headed soldiers coming.

As for the ordinary people, they could only close the door and tremble. However, there are also several families who are brave enough to agree to guarantee each other, and in general there are not many.

"The soldiers of the East China Sea, the big thief."

"Everyone has a good life, and he has to go around."

"Make a lot of noise, don't kill them."

More than a dozen sergeants with loud voices lined up at the front, carrying the severed head of the Ye soldier colonel with their spears, shouting as they walked.

There are occasional masked teenagers on the royal road, and when they hit their hands, they directly stabbed them with spears and killed them cleanly.

Whenever there is a big war and the situation is chaotic, the "evil boys" will come out in groups, steal or rob, and even set fire to kill people, which is really a great scourge - the reason for masking is that they are afraid of being recognized by acquaintances, or robbing acquaintances and killing them.

The shouts of the Kingdom Army played a singular role.

They did not rob or kill, but only marched in neat columns, occasionally encountering bandits and evil teenagers, or the Hebei rebels who were stunned and broke into the city, and killed them with knives and guns, purely to stabilize the order.

The tight strings in people's hearts gradually loosened, and some even cheered in low voices—probably people who were annoyed by the Ye's blackmail.

It was also at this time that the reputation of the East China Sea Kingdom Army began to spread further.

The people of Luoyang successively knew that in addition to the Chinese army, there was such a combat effectiveness and good military discipline in Luoyang City.

In the future, if Luoyang faces the threat of war again, it may be able to rely on them - the reputation is invisible and intangible, but sometimes it can play a great role, even a key role.

Shao Xun carefully observed the expressions on the faces of the soldiers.

He saw many proud faces, especially when some of the people cheered, the soldiers held their heads even higher, and the previously somewhat perfunctory queue became more orderly.

People need affirmation.

People who have won battles, in particular, need affirmation, which helps to improve self-confidence.

When self-confidence is high, you can perform at a high level.

When you don't have confidence, it's hard to play at the level of your usual training.

A strong army needs scientific, systematic, and arduous training, as well as the kind of self-confidence that gives up oneself.

They are still a little far away, but Shao Xun is already consciously cultivating.

In particular, those student soldiers whom he regarded as treasures needed to be "fed" with victory after victory until a strong army could be fed.

Sikong Mansion is soon here, and the security has been tightened here.

Sikong's "new favorite", Gou Xi, the general of the forbidden army, sent 500 elite soldiers to guard here, occupying the surrounding area.

The army of the East China Sea Kingdom did not stop.

Some of them entered the barracks, while others set up guards at the entrance of the street to guard against the remnants of the enemy.

They may not be required to do so, but the gesture still has to be put on.

At the same time, this is also a signal sent by Shao Xun through the air.

******

Sima Yue had already entered Miyagi.

He thought it was the hardest place to fight, because Miyagi was really strong. Unexpectedly, when the killing of Zhumen was everywhere, and he couldn't wait for Shi Chao's order for a long time, the defenders surrendered.

Rao has been cultivating his internal strength, Sima Yue still couldn't help but break the defense, and said with joy: "All the soldiers surrender to me, this providence is also, quickly enter the palace to protect the Son of Heaven." ”

"No." Cheng Fu, the general of the forbidden army, responded with a wave of his hand and ordered the soldiers to enter the city through the end gate, and collected the weapons of the surrendered troops.

After tidying up his appearance, Sima Yue got on the ox cart, and under the escort of hundreds of staff members and his entourage, he put on his helmet and armor and entered with weapons.

The Son of Heaven has been surrounded by ministers and came to the outside of the Taiji Palace, and when he saw Sima Yue, he said: "There is endless fighting in the city, and it is commonplace?" ”

"Your Majesty." Sima Yue finished the salute first, and then said: "Taidi Ying raised troops to attack Luoyang before, and the lives were ruined, causing chaos in the dynasty, and Chinese and foreign resentment. This time, he levied violently in Yecheng, built a mansion, severely punished the law, and appointed private individuals. The minister is commonplace, and he has the responsibility of praising the government and Kuangfu Sheji, and he can't bear to sit back and watch the achievements of the previous kings ruined. Therefore, the Quartet recruited loyal people, resolutely raised troops, and crusaded against the unsubordinate. ”

Sima Zhen was stunned when he heard this.

He's got that IQ like that. Although the courtiers will judge this sect king for a while, and then mention another sect king, they will talk wildly, but in his eyes, what is the difference between these sect kings, aren't they all the same?

Beat me, I beat you, kill and kill, once no one cooked rice, and once it was difficult to drink water.

Finally settled down, and still have to fight?

A few days ago, I heard that there were objects stolen in the palace, and the guards said that it was because of the lack of troops in Luoyang, so that bandits were rampant.

He believed.

But it leads to another question, if we continue to fight, will the soldiers fight less and less, and the thieves will become more and more arrogant?

No one can answer that.

"Your Majesty." Seeing that the Son of Heaven was stunned, Shangshu's left servant shot Wang Yan and reminded: "Sikong Ji is in order, and meritorious service should be rewarded." ”

"What's more expensive?" How many times have he been coerced, Sima Zhen glanced at the soldiers behind Sima Yue and asked.

"It's better to increase the governor and rule the Chinese and foreign." Wang Yan said.

"Where are the people in the middle school, quickly draft the edict." Sima Zhen immediately shouted.

Wang Yan glanced at Sima Yue with a smile.

Sima Yue bowed his head, and everything was silent.

Wang Yan never thought about the country, but only thought about self-improvement.

When the crown prince was framed and convicted by Empress Jia, he did not want to strive for preservation, but did everything possible to divorce the prince and his daughter.

After getting the prince's handwritten letter, he didn't show it to the public, but hid it, watching the wind, hoping that the prince could survive the danger, so that his daughter would still be the crown princess.

This is a repeated villain, Sima Yue knows his temperament very well, but now he still has to cooperate with him.

The edict was quickly written.

Sima Yue respectfully took it, and after glancing at it, he handed the edict to Cheng Fu and asked him to read it to the gates. If there are still Ye soldiers resisting stubbornly, with this edict, it should be able to break the morale of some troops and end the war as soon as possible.

Before entering the palace city, he had already received news that the two gates of Great Xia and Guangmo were both defeated, and more than 4,000 were captured.

Just now, someone came to report that Ximing Gate, Dongyang Gate, and Jianchun Gate were conquered one after another, killing more than 10,000 enemies.

Listening to the shouts and killings of the other gates, it seems to be gradually lowering, and it is nearing the end.

It was a very successful raid that broke Sima Ying's power to hold Luoyang in one fell swoop.

When the Golden Valley Garden is conquered and Shi Chao is captured, the dust will be completely settled.

On the occasion of being complacent, Sima Yue just wanted to look up to the sky and let out a long roar.

Victory in the first battle, magnificent!

Director Wang, who was standing behind Sima Yue, set his eyes on his brother, and he took it at a touch.

Da Honglu Wang Dun is also there.

He looked at Director Wang and smiled mysteriously.

Director Wang understood what he meant.

If the Northern Expedition to Yecheng wins, he will make some contributions to the military, and with his brother Wang Yifu to help, Xuzhou will not be far away.

At the same time, I was a little ashamed.

After all, he can't rely on his own ability to get the position of the state and county, and he still has to rely on the help of his family after all.

In a way, he is not even as good as a land plane.

People also rely on their family background, but they first served as the internal history of the plains, and then commanded more than 200,000 troops, and their careers are much stronger than him.

In addition, Wang Cheng and others, who were new to the shogunate, were arrogant and pointed fingers at him, which added up to make him feel frustrated, and at the same time he also understood: people cannot be arrogant, and there are so many talents in the world.

This is the reason why I felt harsh when I heard my cousin comment on Tao Kan a while ago.

Only by going through many experiences can you polish your character.

Only by doing more things can you temper your abilities.

If he is still obsessed, he will still be the same in 20 years, without any changes.

After all, people must continue to grow and progress. The experience of the past year or so is precious, and it is better than ten years of fooling around at home.

The sunset gradually sprinkled, and the shouts of the gates became more and more rare.

Luoyang once again returned to the hands of "Zhongzheng".

For a moment, Director Wang felt as if he had touched the brink of victory.

But is that real? Or is it an illusion? Director Wang, who was once extremely confident, hesitated at this moment.
