However, Fan Ne and Zhang Jun were reluctant to go, and Song Huizong would definitely have to change people when they went to Runzhou, but if they went to Chuzhou, it would only be Zhao Gou's marshal camp, and they couldn't arrange officials from the three provinces and six departments. Under the urging of Li Gang, the two had no choice but to order the officials of the three provinces and six ministries to start retreating, but the two did not stipulate where the officials would retreat, it was okay to go to Runzhou, or to the camp of King Kang in Chuzhou.

When he heard that the Jin army had arrived in Huazhou and Zhang Qiong was killed in battle, Zhang Jun no longer hesitated, and took a large number of officials and a group of Chen Dong's students to Chuzhou to camp in Chuzhou. Li Gang didn't expect Quan Bangyan, Li Guang, and Hu Yin to leave, so he asked Quan Bangyan curiously: "Do you plan to defect to the Dingbei Army?"

Quan Bangyan sneered: "My family all died in the hands of the Jin army, if it weren't for the thousands of people in Dongping Mansion, I wouldn't have broken through, these people are here, I'm here." I want to see if Yang Zhi continues to create miracles, or die in Bianliang with me, you came from Runzhou, don't you have the same thoughts. ”

Li Guang said with a smile: "I just feel that Yang Zhi's words have an appetite for me, and Zhang Bangchang should have been killed a long time ago, so I want to see Yang Zhi's ability." ”

Li Gang looked at the left and right and saw that there was no one else, lowered his voice and said: "If the elite soldiers in Yunzhong and Hedong led by Yang Zhi don't say 100,000, even if it is 350,000, 100,000 gold soldiers may not be able to win easily." What I'm worried about is that Yang Zhi brought all the new army and the recruited rebels, no matter how powerful Yang Zhi is, it will be difficult to hold on to Bianliang when there is no food, weapons, and equipment. ”

Yao Gudu, who had just arrived in Runzhou, believed that Zhao Kai would not allow Yang Zhi to lead 100,000 elite soldiers to leave Hedong, and now they all know that the Yunzhong Army under Yang Zhi's original command had the first place in the combat effectiveness of the Dingbei Army, and even if Yang Zhi was not there, the Jin Army and the Western Xia Army still could not please him; secondly, the two Hedong Army, Min and Xu Huiyan, were able to draw with the Jin Army several times after more than a year of hard fighting, and they were considered a strong force, and now they were under the command of Xu Huiyan and Zong Ze; Wang Ping's Hebei Army maintained a battlefield of 100,000 troops with 20,000 elite soldiers in Hebei, where the Jin army was dominant.

If it is these three troops, there is no need to worry about 100,000 people guarding Bianliang, but according to the view of what can be done, the most likely to be dispatched is the Yunzhong Army that Yang Zhi is expanding, including 10,000 elite cavalry under Yang Zhi and 10,000 Tuntian soldiers from Taihang Mountain, and the rest are all new troops incorporated in Guanzhong, and their combat effectiveness is worrying.

Li Guang smiled and said: "I can't say that, what the Western Army looks like in the hands of Wang Hou and Liu Zhongwu, what it looks like in the hands of Qian Gai and Liu Yanqing, it's completely different, look at it, I'm older than Yang Zhi anyway, and I can afford it." ”

On the second day of Zhang Jun's departure, Yang Zhi asked Xu Jingheng to take Zhang Bang's official document to Bianliang, which was a notice, Yang Zhi demanded that from now on, all the people and materials outside Bianliang City would be transferred to the city, and the troops and people who were unwilling to stay in the city to fight with the Jin army should leave Bianliang within three days, and the army laid down its arms, regardless of whether the soldiers and civilians were only allowed to carry ten-day rations, and the transfer route was only allowed to go south, and the west and east were regarded as assisting the Jin people to disrupt public security.

Li Gang knew what it was for at a glance, although Zhang Jun was gone, but Zhao Kai was left to transport materials and supply tens of thousands of defeated troops around Bianliang to help King Kang recruit people;

On the third day, Liang Xun took 20,000 men from Wang Shan and Liang Xing into Bianliang first, and Zhang Heng's sailors came by land and took over the ships that Yang Jin had collected by the Yellow River in advance, preparing to meet Yang Zhi's army; although the Dingbei army had only 20,000 men, they were all equipped with armor and 4,000 cavalry, forcing Zhang Yong, Li Gui and other Qinwang troops to withdraw from Bianliang. The people in Bianliang City were a little relieved that the military discipline of Liang Xing and Wang Shan's armies was still good, not worse than Wang Yuan's Western Army.

After Liang Xun entered the city, he immediately began to collect food, weapons, armor, etc., only to know that except for a small amount of grain in the city to maintain the livelihood of the people, there was no other stock in the city, and they were all sent to Chuzhou. Liang Xun has been paying attention to the situation in Bianliang in Zhengzhou, controlling Kaifeng City, and immediately asking Wang Shan to immediately send someone to detain all the materials brought by Zhao Kailian, and even sent cavalry to chase down the materials that had been transported out of the city.

Zhao Kai's subordinates were all sent by the rout, and they came forward to block, and more than 100 people were killed on the spot by Wang Shan's people, and the remaining more than 500 people disarmed and surrendered, and Zhao Kai was directly imprisoned in the barracks. Li Gang was taken aback when he learned this, and immediately went to find Liang Xun with Li Guang and others, and asked when they met, "When will Yang Zhi arrive?"

Li Gang understood that this must be Yang Zhi's order, if you ask the reason, Liang Xun will push it cleanly, it is better to make the words clear; Liang Xun smiled and said: "I don't know, now the Gyeonggi transfer envoy is in Zhengzhou, Yang Zhi has appointed Lu Yihao as the transfer envoy, Xu Jingheng is the transfer judge, Yang Zhi himself, afraid that the Jin army will launch an attack early, is currently attacking Huazhou." ”

Attacking Huazhou, Li Gang was startled and asked: "If all the 100,000 people are wiped out in Huazhou, how can they defend Bianliang?"

Liang Xun hurriedly said: "Lord Li, don't be impatient, there are 20,000 of my people in the city, and there are 100,000 righteous troops outside the city, even if there is no Yang Zhi, we will have no problem guarding for two or three months." The question is, you said that the supplies are guaranteed, why are they still being shipped out?"

Quan Bangyan and Li Guang who came with him laughed, the first time the Jin army went south, Li Gang had more than 100,000 forbidden troops and 200,000 Qinwang troops, and they collapsed before they could even defend it for a month, and the most important thing was that they had no confidence; although Liang Xun was a civilian official, he did not have such confidence now that Li Gang and Xu Han did not have it when they presided over the battle. Li Gang didn't get angry, but asked Liang Xun seriously: "I'll figure out a way to deal with the supplies, how many people does Yang Zhi bring?"

Liang Xun also replied seriously: "40,000 people, it was Liu Qi and Yang Jin who attacked Huazhou, less than 30,000 people, all of them were soldiers, and there were cavalry and naval forces to cooperate." There are 6,000 elite soldiers who are about to arrive in Kaifeng, and 10,000 people from Wang Xie, Shao Xing, and Li Yanxian. Lord Li, I'm not joking, sticking to the city is just about the grain and grass equipment, you came so early, but you allowed the rout army to rob the warehouse, although Zhao Kai pretended to be King Kang's banner, you can't get out of this matter. ”

Li Gang's heart tightened, and he saw that Liang Xun really had the intention of killing, and hurriedly said: "Zhao Kai has an order from King Kang. ”
