Without the second grade, Liu Dangren is indeed unrivaled. Together with Guan Shanting, he defeated the Daxia army many times. The success made the Yangzhou and Jingzhou generation completely identify with their rule.
In this process, no one knows how many powerful people were killed. But Lao Liu was by no means a brainless person, and he still made some alliances and compromises with aristocratic families.
After all, most of the masters above the fourth rank in the world come from aristocratic families, so it is really difficult to fight against so many people.
The only way is to join forces with some powerful people who are willing to cooperate and take the initiative to release food, as well as those relatively marginal small and medium-sized aristocratic families. Run these two continents together.
But Liu Dangren knew that he would face a huge challenge next.
That was the attack of the second-grade monks.
Although he and Guan Shanting joined forces, three or four of the third-level enemies had been killed. But as long as the second rank is still there, people will think that the Great Xia Dynasty will not fall, and everyone will lack confidence in you.
If Lao Liu is really allowed to kill all the second-grade monks (eighth level). I believe that nothing can stop his powerful personal charm from working. The strategy of first seizing the south of the Yangtze River, then connecting the northeast, and encircling the Great Xia Dynasty from all sides along the way can be achieved.
But it seems that it can't be beaten at the moment. And there is a branch of the Xie family in Yangzhou. Liu Dangren had not been in a hurry to attack the county where Xie's family was located, so as not to attract Xie Dingguo too quickly.
At least we have to wait until the common people have finished this year's spring plowing before we can withdraw, right?
Liu Dangren took a deep breath. It is very difficult to break through from the third level to the second level. He has no confidence that he may really have to abandon the territory and people here and fight elsewhere.
I just hope that the army of the Great Xia Dynasty will consider that this place is their territory after all, and will not engage in massacres when the time comes.
But it's hard. A guy who doesn't treat the people at the bottom as human beings may not go out of his way to kill people, but he also won't restrain his soldiers. Without restraint, violence is inevitable.
At the same time, in Youzhou. Wu Hui and Zhang Dingyang raided the royal court of the Eastern Barbarians outside the Great Wall. They joined forces to kill the barbarian Eastern Khan, a third-grade monk, and returned victorious.
Wu Hui, Li Xiaoyue, and Zhang Dingyang teamed up to kill an enemy equivalent to a level seven player. It was not too difficult.
"When we go back, we must be prepared to gather a large number of refugees. If nothing else happens, many people will come to Youzhou." Wu Hui learned about the situation in the south from Ren Yinshi's message, and another rebellion broke out in Xuzhou, Qingzhou. There is a plague in Yizhou. Bingzhou is also at war.
The world is so big, but only Youzhou, where they destroyed the enemy in advance, is slightly more stable.
Of course, Wu Hui cannot control Youzhou, he can only control a county under Youzhou.
Zhang Dingyang seemed to have something on his mind and kept his mouth shut on the way back. He also knew the news coming from the south. Obviously, Lao Liu's situation was not optimistic.
It is said that Xie Dingguo went south in person.
"Governor Wu, I have something to ask of you." Zhang Dingyang came to Wu Hui and said, "I want to go south and leave. Can you please help me take care of the remaining troops?"
Seeing Zhang Dingyang's sincere look, Wu Hui, who was still thinking about how to gain control of the army, hesitated to speak.
Lao Zhang knew that these troops from the North had been living here for a long time. It’s okay to go out and fight if the court orders you to do so. It's really not okay to run across thousands of miles to rebel. Even if it was possible, he shouldn't do it as a commander.
Those who had no concerns all rebelled with Lao Liu in Yangzhou.
"You went there alone?" Wu Hui felt incredible about this. I can only roughly guess what Lao Zhang did in the past.
Zhang Dingyang nodded: "I was originally preparing for the future in Northland. But now it seems that my eldest brother will not be needed for a short time, and Mr. Wu is here to help me lead these troops and run Northland. Then I Is there any reason not to go south to support big brother?"
"Although I am alone, I am just a fourth-grade military monk with no troops to follow. But maybe my brother is only missing a fourth-grade monk like me?"
"When I return to western Liaoning, after I finish explaining, I will go south to Yangzhou and Jingzhou to find him."
Wu Hui was silent. He was curious about what kind of person he was that could make Zhang Dingyang follow him like this. In the end, Wu Hui didn't say anything, but just nodded and said he would help.
Zhang Dingyang rode down to the south of the Yangtze River.
At the same time, in a small remote village. Zhao Xingluan, who was living in seclusion, sighed as he looked at the officers and soldiers entering the village to recruit young men and rob them.
He opened a medical clinic in this village, and his business was average, so he could make do with it.
Originally, Lao Zhao wanted to squat here for the rest of his life.
But how is it possible? These days, the official army may be more arrogant than the bandit army. Because the bandit army is still considering a long-term plan, as long as the village does not resist, they will not kill them all. The officers and soldiers passing by to recruit people didn't care about this.
In other words, the imperial court itself is just a big bandit.
Zhao Xingluan opened the cabinet containing the medicine and pulled out a long gun. Then, amid the shouting outside, he walked toward the officers and soldiers who tried to rape the female villagers.
At this time, it was just dark, and the stars in the sky were shining on the mountains on the ground, but the peaceful village was bustling with noise.
A silver gun swept across, and the white robe wiped away the blood on the gun. Zhao Xingluan looked at the villagers, sighed and said to everyone: "Now we have two ways, either go to the south to join General Liu, or go to the north to escape in Youzhou. I don't know which way do you think we should take?"
The Daxia Dynasty was indeed rotten to the core.
The people were so frightened by the government troops that they ran to the rebel territory. I don’t know which side is the thief and which side is the official.
Liu Dangren combined the strength of the army and prepared to make an effort before spring plowing. He did not say that he would kill and defeat him, but he hoped to be able to resist Xie Dingguo head-on and buy some time for the people to farm.
Without his protection, how would these people have the chance to finish planting their fields?
However, even if they finish planting, they may not be able to wait until harvest time. Liu Dangren also hoped that he could stay here forever, but after all he didn't have the ability.
There is no point in doing things by force. It takes more courage to evacuate than to die.
For some reason, two words came to Liu Dangren's mind...
No, there is no need to move too much. If it is not possible, we can hide together with Guan Shanting at the junction of Jingzhou and Yangzhou to fight guerrillas. As long as we maintain the will and discipline of the troops, the people will always be on our side. The guerrillas can always fight... wait until you reach the second level of cultivation, and then fight back.
But when exactly do we have to wait?
Liu Dangren's loyalty was nowhere to be poured out, and his heart was as depressed as a pile of stones. He was a little confused and hoped that someone smart could help him find the most correct route.
And the army of Chariot and Cavalry General Xie Dingguo arrived.
Xie Dingguo, who was dressed in white, looked at Liu Dangren who had formed a military formation from a distance, and sneered: "The rebels are quite handsome."
Liu Dangren drank the strong wine brought by the soldiers around him to strengthen his courage. He held a knife in one hand and a spear in the other. He looked at Xie Dingguo in the distance: "Laoguan. If I die in battle, you will lead everyone back to Guanshan."
Guan Shanting, who was holding the weapon next to Liu Dangren, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded to express his understanding.
A blast of cold air hit, turning into countless sharp edges. Liu Dangren gathered the strength of the military formation, the tip of his spear flashed with cold light, and he reluctantly took it.
