The army led by Wu Yuehou was defeated so quickly that Emperor Qin was unexpected, causing him to vomit a mouthful of blood and then wilt.

In fact, to be able to sit on that chair, Qin Mu is not incompetent, and he is also a person with great ambitions, but his luck is not good, but he met a rising demon Zhang Xian Zhang Yuanyi.

But the most important thing is the overall situation, the system, the concept of employing people, etc. lagged behind Zhang Xian, just like this decisive battle, Zhang Xian completely let go of Liu Yong and Wang Yan and those corps generals Wenchen, basically did not participate in the whole process, let them play freely, the result is gratifying, with the weak to attack the strong, a big victory.

On the other hand, Qin Mu monopolized the power and remote control, giving the front-line generals a lot of constraints, so that they could not give full play to their abilities, and if they were powerless, it would be unreasonable to be undefeated.

Wu Yuehou and Wuyanghou did not return to the capital at all, knowing that although they would not be beheaded when they saw the emperor, they would definitely be humiliated, and they were all holding their stomachs sulking and had nowhere to go, so why bother to be humiliated, they went back directly to their fiefdoms.

This made Qin Mu spit out another mouthful of old blood.

This southern expedition failed again, and it was quite miserable.

Not only did they lose two or three million troops, but they also lost large territories.

By mid-March, the Xia State had completely controlled the Qin State land, which was about 4,000 li long and wide south of Zhoushan Mountain and east of the Daqing River, not counting the original Shangcheng State.

When Wuyue Hou was defeated, the Qin army attacked the Suli Kingdom, and seeing that things were not good, they quickly retreated to the front line of Jiaocheng and relied on the Jiaohe River to make a defense.

Cangyue Kingdom took the opportunity to seize two more counties of Qin State, but Su Li Kingdom did not dare to make a mistake this time, but honestly guarded his own territory, and in order to befriend Xia State, he actually gave Xia Guo the fast land west of Beishan.

So Xia withdrew the corps stationed in Liangyi City, and during this period, the 20,000 Qin troops hiding in Kunshan surrendered to Xia Guo.

Bao Feng and Bao Lu failed to meet King Xia, but were invited by Liu Yong, the generalissimo of the Shangzhu State.

"General Bao, let's not be verbose, I have some troubles and need you to help me solve them. ”

"The general commanded. ”

"Well, there are too many prisoners of the Qin army this time, and I don't know how to deal with it for a while, I hope you can give me a suggestion. ”

Liu Yong: This is the most difficult problem encountered at present, and the Qin State has nearly a million prisoners, which has really dragged down the Xia army.

I can't kill it, but I really can't afford to raise it like this.

In the past, the captives of the Qin State were caught, and the young Zhuang were sent to be absenteeism, and they were given a certain number of years to get rid of the mining slaves, and they could return to their hometowns or settle in the Xia State, and the nobles used it to exchange the ransom for the Qin State, but this time I am afraid that there is no way to exchange the ransom, and the Qin Emperor can't afford to take the ransom, and the Xia King ordered that the nobles should not be killed, which is a little difficult to do.

And those young and strong ordinary soldiers, who are better, can be sent to mining, or they can be sent to vast and sparsely populated places to open up wasteland, but the nobles and some civilian generals are sad.

"Does the general have a plan?"

In fact, Bao Feng had a plan in his heart, but he couldn't take the initiative to bring it up.

"There are two plans, but they are not easy to implement, first, according to His Majesty's instructions, some people can be recruited to form a corps, but I always feel that the corps composed of prisoners of the Qin army, hehe...... , the second plan is the old rule, it's just that there are too many people. ”

"In the following sense, it is best to form a corps, and the rest of the people, especially those of the nobles, should give them some road resources and let them go. ”

"Oh, then General Bao has taken over the burden of forming a new corps?"

Because Bao Feng and Bao Lu were from the Red Evil Pavilion, Liu Yong and Wang Yan discussed using Bao Feng and the two to form a new corps, but they were afraid that the two would have the idea of returning to the Red Evil Pavilion, so they were a little embarrassed, so Liu Yong found the two of them to explore the wind first.

"Bao is extremely honored to be appreciated by the general. ”

That's it.

Later, Bao Feng used his 20,000 old troops as the base, and selected more than 90,000 Qin army prisoners, during which he persuaded more than a dozen civilian generals to stay, so the Anping Corps was established, and the chief general of the corps was not Bao Feng, but Bao Lu, and Bao Feng only surrendered himself as a staff officer.

And Liu Yong, the superintendent of the army, did not send it, because these two people were special, and King Xia could not be contacted for the time being, so he put it on hold first.

The Anping army could not participate in the war for the time being, but stayed in Shangcheng Prefecture for training.

Then Liu Yong ordered a part of the noble generals with special status to be sent to the prison city for detention, and the rest were voluntary, those who were willing to stay and settle in the Xia State were given financial support, and those who were willing to return to the Qin State were given the road capital to leave, except for the people selected by Bao Feng, one-third of the people stayed in Shangcheng Prefecture, most of these people were civilians, and they felt that it was not good to go back, and the Xia State was very generous to them.

The rest went back to Qin.

The captives were settled.

By the end of April, the three new prefectures of Shangcheng, Kangze and Qingzhou were operating normally.

Liu Yongyou seconded the young general Fu Zhuang to form a local corps, the Qingzhou Corps, stationed in Kangze and Qingzhou.

The Generalissimo's headquarters and staff headquarters were moved to Qingcheng, where the Qingzhou Mansion was located.

And during this time, King Xia has not appeared, so where did King Xia go?

And King Xia took his royal special combat team, the Black Flag Army, to build a base in Zhoushan.

Strictly speaking, this base is considered a medium-sized city, relying on the Qin Emperor's abandoned courtyard to expand.

Backed by Zhou Mountain, in front of the Great Zhou River, leading the Great Zhou River as a moat, and opening another canal for drinking water in the city.

The Black Flag Army and the Tiger Battalion have been working here for some time.

Zhang Xian's original intention of building this city was to bring the families of the soldiers of the Black Flag Army here, and the families of the soldiers and soldiers of the major corps who will participate in the war will also move here.

Zhang Xian has always done things in advance and was prepared.

I also think very delicately.

If you want the soldiers to use their lives, you must first be sympathetic to them, think more about the problems that cannot be ignored for them, solve them, or prepare them in advance.

Zhang Xian came to Zhoushan and had another thing, that is, when he raided Emperor Qin last time, Zhu Wei, who intercepted Emperor Qin on Zhoushan, said to Zhang Xian afterwards that he smelled something in Zhoushan that made him want to eat very much, but because the situation was urgent at that time, Zhu Wei didn't dare to make a mistake, for fear of breaking Zhang Xian's affairs, he couldn't bear it, Zhu Wei really couldn't get in, it was not easy.

Coming to Zhoushan again, Zhu Wei, Zhang Xian and Bai Ling'er have been exploring in Zhoushan for a long time, and there are no clues so far.

But Zhang Xian believed in Zhu Wei's sense of smell.

Zhang Xian's intuition told him that there must be something extraordinary in the mountains this week, but they hadn't found it yet.

After looking for another day without results, Zhang Xian, Bai Ling'er and the transformed Zhu Wei returned to the temporary courtyard.

Luo Song and Liao Lin sent two copies of the copy.

Luo Song's copy was a spy report, and Zhang Xian first opened it and read it carefully.

This spy report is about the construction of Yecheng.

"Interesting. ”

Zhang Xian smiled after reading it and handed it to Xiao Fei.

He and Liao Lin will read it and send it as appropriate.

Jianye City is now very lively, because of the defeat of the Qin Emperor this time, the loss of land and people, caused a great sensation, resulting in the Qin family's ranking being suppressed to the penultimate number.

Emperor Qin was also questioned by the family because of this, and if he couldn't get it, he would be impeached by the family elders' house.

Emperor Qin can be described as anxious.

But fortunately, there is Li Chaoyang's side to make up for him, and there are losses and gains.

After receiving the full support of the Marquis of Jinyang, Chaoyang took most of the Bashu Kingdom in one fell swoop, and the first line of the Bashu State and the previous rebellious family were basically annihilated, and the only Tianwei Army that controlled the Apocalypse Army survived, and the Baling Kingdom was also fully occupied.

It seems that Li Chaoyang is very taboo against the Tianqi Army and did not provoke it, although he occupies all of Baling Kingdom, because there is a Xia Kingdom Shenwei Army on the border between Baling Kingdom and Shangcheng Prefecture, there is no conflict.

Emperor Qin is now worried, in the stability of the interior, the organization of strength, there is no ability to go south in a short period of time, Zhang Xian is somewhat relieved, biting such a big piece of meat from the Qin State, he also needs time to digest.

The other was sent by Liu Yong, reporting and requesting:

Cheng Dongxing of the Apocalypse Army demanded to surrender to the Xia Kingdom, because they were oppressed and could not sustain themselves.

The Bashu Kingdom has actually been destroyed, and it is no longer capable of recovering the country, under the guidance of the ancestor Cheng Zong, Cheng Dongxing is ready to throw himself into the Xia Kingdom to retain the Cheng family's bloodline.

Cheng Dongxing not only kept a piece of territory, but also saved most of the old ministers who were imprisoned by the new king and had time to kill in the future, as well as the famous general Cheng Yi, Cheng Biao, who was forced to rebel, etc.

There is also the only remaining rebel army in Baling Kingdom that voted for the Shenwei Army under the leadership of Cheng Qian.

Zhang Xian thought about it after reading it, so he replied:

The Tianwei Army can retain the number to become an army of its own, and Cheng Yi will take over as the commander of the corps, but it needs to change the defense with the Jiewei Army, that is, the Jiewei Army of Ma Huan and the Tianwei Army will be exchanged, and the Tianwei Army needs to go to Qinyang City, Wuwei Prefecture for a period of training, and the Tianqi Army will become a unique army, named the Tianqi Army, led by Cheng Dongxing, with the rank of general, Cheng Qian's deputy general, Cheng Zong as the staff division, and immediately rushed to Zhoushan Biancheng to expand the army for training, and Cheng Qian's righteous army joined the Tianqi Army.

As for Cheng Biao and others who were transferred to the military department, that is, Liu Yong's command headquarters first served as advisers for a period of time, and then decided on their whereabouts.

Zhang Xian didn't have a good impression of Cheng Biao.

But this man has the ability to command the army.

Then Liao Lin sent the will to Liu Yong away, and there was no need to reply to the spy report of the red evil.

There were also some trivial matters, and Zhang Xian finished handling them together, so he called Zuo Xuan and Huang Juan.

"I'll find you a competitor, you shouldn't be a stranger to the Apocalypse Army, they will be able to rush to Biancheng in more than 20 days, I plan to let them become an army of their own, this Cheng Dongxing is amazing, and that Cheng Qian, who can hold on to it for so long under such difficult conditions, in addition, there is some deep meaning here, not to mention for the time being, you have to communicate with them more, especially the ancestor of the Cheng family, Cheng Zong, although he has been hit, and his cultivation has been stuck in the peak realm of the divine master for a long time, but this person is very talented, and when his heart is smooth, he may soar to the sky, and then he is my grandfather's sworn brother, you must help them recruit troops and help train in the early stage, you will be both competitors and best partners in the future, think about it, in the near future, the two most special and powerful armies of the Xia Kingdom will roar on the battlefield, cooperate with each other and gallop independently, what kind of scene is it, haha, I'm looking forward to it!"

Zhang Xianneng looked up to the Apocalypse Army and Cheng Dongxing so highly, and intended to be placed on the same level as the Black Flag Army, which really surprised Zuo Xuan and Huang Juan.

The two of them said yes and then withdrew.

Zhang Xian thought about it and found it interesting, but he also had some other ideas, whether to put some big demons that could transform into the Apocalypse Army, otherwise it would be difficult for the Apocalypse Army to keep pace with the Black Flag Army in a short period of time......
