Gu Shouting shook his head when he heard this and said:
"Hong Xiang, what you said is wrong is not that the Fengwu Army did not capture Zhao Jianan, but that Ye Mingsheng ordered the entire army that no one could capture Zhao Jianan or harm a hair on his body, and they also had to ensure Zhao Jianan's safety from Yi. Jing leaves..."
Zhang Hongxiang was a little confused when he said this, and asked with confusion:
"What is Governor Ye doing? Isn't it good to catch Zhao Jian'an? He is Zhao Fuqu's eldest son. His status in the Yan army is second only to Zhao Fuqu himself. He is one person below ten thousand in the Yan army!"
Feeling Zhang Hongxiang's confusion, Zhao Jianan first sighed and then began to say:
"At the beginning, I thought the same as you. I didn't understand that Ye Mingsheng not only didn't arrest Zhao Jianan, but also ensured that he left safely. But last night, after thinking about it all night, I gradually understood what Ye Mingsheng was thinking. Since the Wu army entered the pass, the Yan army has been retreating steadily and suffered heavy casualties. Now even Yi Jing has been lost. Although there are sneak attacks by the Fengwu army and the sharp weapons of the Fengwu army."
"But the biggest problem of the Yan Army is not the firearms or the sneak attacks by the Fengwu Army, but the internal friction caused by the successor issue, and Ye Mingsheng chose to let Zhao Jianan go back because he saw the fatal weakness of the Yan Army! "
"If Zhao Jian'an is defeated by Yi Jing this time, then Zhao Fuqu and Yan Jun will only have Zhao Jianwen as their successor when it comes to the issue of successor. Zhao Fuqu and Yan Jun have no choice. Therefore, Yan The biggest contradiction within the army has been solved! They can unite and concentrate all their forces to deal with the Fengwu Army!"
"And if Zhao Jianan is put back, his reputation has plummeted after the battle with Yi Jing. With Zhao Jianwen's character, he will definitely beat the drowned dog and try to beat Zhao Jianan to death with a stick. Naturally, Zhao Jianan will not sit still and wait for death. The division will continue, and this will undoubtedly affect the Yan army's ability to concentrate its forces against the Fengwu army..."
Listening to Gu Shouting's thorough analysis, Zhang Hongxiang said with sincere emotion:
"This Governor Ye is really no ordinary person. He has a far-reaching plan and it's amazing!"
"Yes! Otherwise, he would not have become the governor of Liaoyang from a humble family. Now he is about to capture Youyan. By then, he will be sitting in the two provinces of Liaoyang and Youyan. Our Governor Ye will probably He is the largest prince in the north! Hegemony is guaranteed!"
Although Gu Shouting was full of admiration for Ye Mingsheng as he spoke, a fleeting and complex look flashed deep in his eyes. No one except himself knew what he was doing at this moment. What are you thinking about.
After finishing the conversation about Zhao Jianan, Gu Shouting seemed to have thought of something again, and continued to explain to Zhang Hongxiang very seriously:
"Hong Xiang, from today on we are the Fengwu Army. There are some things you need to keep in mind!"
"The Fengwu Army is very different from the Yan Army. The Fengwu Army has very strict military discipline and is not as polite as the Yan Army. The consequences of violating military law are also very serious. Even Ye Mingsheng's tribe is not an exception. Last time there was Ye Mingsheng’s relatives, who drank and caused trouble in the army, were also severely punished according to the law and their official positions were kicked to the end!"
"In addition to military discipline, the biggest difference between the Fengwu Army and other armies is that the Fengwu Army's pay and silver are distributed directly from the bill numbers to soldiers and their families without going through the hands of superior generals. Generals at all levels are also strictly prohibited from interfering in local government affairs. ························”
Zhang Hongxiang was stunned when he heard what Gu Shouting said. He never thought that there were so many rules in the Fengwu Army. Although he was a little worried, after all, there was no regret medicine now, so he could only order it. He nodded and said:
"Don't worry Shouting, I will abide by the rules!"
After receiving Zhang Hongxiang's affirmative answer, Gu Shouting felt a lot more at ease, and then chatted with his good brother about the next plan to train the Sixth Division.
···························
···························
While the Fengwu Army was busy cleaning up the mess in Yijing and restoring order, the county government of Jiangshan County, three hundred miles west of Yijing, where Yijing had not yet fallen, Governor of Youyan Zhao Fuqu, was busy Arrange a battle plan.
"Soldiers, Ye Mingsheng and Feng Wujun, a bunch of bastards, dared to come out and behave like monsters when I was not at home. Don't look at him like a bitch. Now he is very happy to surround Yi Jing with real soldiers, but Yi Jing Beijing is still impregnable and safe, and Zhao Yong in Guangzong County has also restrained a large part of the Fengwu Army!"
"Now that I'm back with my army, it's time for the Fengwu Army to show their true colors, where they came from and where they went!" Zhao Fuqu, who was full of energy and sitting on the handsome chair, waved his hand and said domineeringly:
After Zhao Fuqu's words fell, the generals of the Yan army under the tent also echoed:
"The commander is right. Ye Mingsheng is just a young boy. What does he know about fighting?"
"The Fengwu Army has only been able to fight until now because they took advantage of the main force of our army, Invading Yun, and shamelessly attacked from behind. If the commander comes back for reinforcements and fights with real swords and guns, they will be completely defeated!"
"The commander-in-chief has fought more battles than Ye Mingsheng has eaten. Then Ye Mingsheng is not worthy of carrying the commander-in-chief's shoes. If the commander-in-chief goes out and beats him, then is it easy for a little Ye Mingsheng to catch him?"
·······················
·······················
The atmosphere in the county government gradually became heated. If someone who didn't know what was going on saw this scene, they would probably think that the Yan army had already attacked Dongning City, the Fengwu army was about to be destroyed, and Ye Mingsheng was about to be defeated and commit suicide. Instead of Fengwu troops surrounding Yijing, the Yan army was defeated steadily!
Seeing that a lively discussion had begun in front of him about how to capture Ye Mingsheng and humiliate his generals, Zhao Fuqu felt that the morale of the soldiers was available and the morale was high. Zhao Fuqu nodded with satisfaction, then pressed his hands to signal An Jing to continue speaking:
"Let's start the combat deployment. Where is Sun Zheng?"
After hearing Zhao Fuqu's words, a strong man with a Chinese character came out of the team and bowed to Zhao Fuqu and said:
"The general is here!"
"I order you to lead 3,000 light cavalry and rush to aid Yi Jing as the vanguard of our army. Tell my son Zhao Jian'an and the loyal people of Yi Jing that I, Zhao Fuqu, have returned with my army, and let them strengthen their confidence and hold on to Yi Jing!"
"yes!"
Sun Zheng took the order and returned to the queue.
After giving Sun Zheng the order, Zhao Fuqu ordered again:
"Wang Chengzhao!"
"The general is here!"
An eight-foot-tall, dark-faced man stood up with an angry voice.
"I order you to lead the scout troops, contact Zhao Yong's headquarters in Guangzong County, and tell them to launch a fierce attack with our army in seven days, forming a pincer attack on the Fengwu Army... ·······”
"I will obey your orders!"
After giving orders to Sun Zheng and Wang Chengzhao, Zhao Fuqu issued orders to several other people. After doing all this, Zhao Fuqu stood up from the handsome chair and said confidently:
"In this battle, our army will attack from the front and back. We must make sure that the Fengwu army cannot look at each other. In the first battle, the Fengwu army will be defeated at the foot of Yijing City. First, we will charge Ye Mingsheng the interest for daring to enter the pass for a sneak attack. When the Fengwu army is driven away, After leaving Youyan, when my army invaded Liaoyang, I was calculating the general ledger with him! I swear I won’t pay back Liaoyang until this battle is broken!"
"I swear I won't pay it back until Liaoyang is broken!"
After Zhao Fuqu finished speaking, groups of slogans suddenly rang out in the camp. However, just when the confident Zhao Fuqu was about to announce the adjournment of the meeting, his counselor Li Liang ran into the camp in a panic and saw the people in the camp. All the generals were there, and when he realized that the matter was serious, he wanted to have a close conversation with Zhao Fuqu and tell only Zhao Fuqu the news.
But at this time, Zhao Fuqu had gone through his own wave of self-hypnosis, and his self-confidence was extremely high. Seeing Li Liang being so hesitant, he said with great dissatisfaction:
"All of you here are the important generals of the Yan Army, and I am not an outsider. If there is anything that needs to be so secretive, Li Liang, please tell me openly and openly in front of everyone!"
Although Zhao Fuqu had already said this, Li Liang seemed to have other considerations in mind. He hesitated and then said tentatively:
"Commander, I'd better tell you only one person..."
Seeing that Li Liang refused to carry out his orders, Zhao Fuqu, who was in an excited mood, suddenly became furious. He directly pulled out the sword from his waist and pointed it at Li Liang's head and said viciously:
"Li Liang, you bitch is so brave, you dare to disobey military orders! Are you going to say it now? If you don't say it, I will kill you right now!"
Looking at Zhao Fuqu's shimmering blade, Li Liang, a civil servant, couldn't help but trembled in fright, then he swallowed and whispered:
"News came from Guangzong County. Five days ago, Ye Mingsheng personally led the 60,000-strong Fengwu Army to ambush General Zhao Yong in Guangzong County. General Zhao Yong accidentally fell into the Fengwu Army's trick, and 30,000 soldiers and horses were captured. The military army was severely defeated,
"Only Xue Kun led thousands of defeated soldiers and fled back to Zhuoxian. General Zhao Yong himself died tragically under Guo Zhiping's sword in a duel with the enemy's third division general Guo Zhiping. The soldiers and horses who followed him to break through were also forced to Surrendered the Fengwu Army!"
After listening to Li Liang's story, Zhao Fuqu, who was originally confident, suddenly felt cold. He subconsciously let go of the knife in his hand and dropped it to the ground. But on the surface, he was still calm and said calmly:
"How is this possible? This must be fake news spread by the Fengwu Army to confuse our army..."
Wang Chengzhao, who also heard the news, felt very embarrassed. He had just received an order from Zhao Fuqu to contact Zhao Yong. Both sides launched a fierce attack on the Fengwu Army. Zhao Yong's troops were now defeated by the Fengwu Army. After returning, even Zhao Yong himself died at the hands of the Fengwu Army. So should he contact Zhao Yong's troops now?
Just when the camp was as quiet as death, and the sound of a pin falling to the ground could be clearly heard, suddenly a messenger broke into the camp in a panic. He didn't know what was going on and he didn't know where it was. What happened? Panting, he loudly reported to Zhao Fuqu:
"Report to the Commander-in-Chief that there is news from the scouts in front. There is no more flag of our army on the top of Yijing City, and the flag of Fengwu Army has been planted!"
As soon as these words came out, all the generals in the camp looked shocked and disbelieving. Although everyone knew before that Yi Jing had been besieged by the Fengwu Army and was in a difficult situation under the fierce attack of the Fengwu Army, but after all, they were thousands of miles apart. , not knowing the specific situation of Yi Jing, they all thought that Yi Jing's guards had sufficient troops, the city defense was perfect and solid as gold, and the Fengwu army would never be able to attack the city!
And the news coming back now is undoubtedly a loud slap in the face to them. The Fengwu Army is more powerful than they imagined. Even the solid Yi Jing cannot stop their conquest. Those present are all generals of the Yan Army. They are very Clearly understand what the fall of Yi Jing means to the Zhao family and the Yan army...
If you think of what Li Liang said just now about Zhao Yong's troops suffering heavy casualties and Zhao Yong himself dying in battle, then even if Zhao Fuqu rushes back from Yunbin, it seems that the situation in Youyan has changed. Nothing!
Just when the camp fell into a deathlike silence, and all the generals were thinking about their own thoughts, Zhao Fuqu, who was sitting on the commander's seat, had an abnormal flush on his face. The next second, he was filled with grief and anger and spit out a mouthful of blood. He came out and fell unconscious on the ground under everyone's gaze and exclamations.

Dongning, Mingru Temple.
Accompanied by her maid, Murong Qingwu respectfully bowed and offered incense to the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva in the temple. I don’t know why during this process, Murong Qingwu always felt that someone was secretly observing her, but she didn’t turn around several times. Finding any abnormalities, Murong Qingwu thought that he was hallucinating.
However, when she and the maid were going down the mountain and walking to a mountain path, a woman with a face covered in white gauze and an aloof temperament stood quietly in the middle of the path, as if waiting for something.
Although the other party didn't say anything and just stood there quietly, looking at the woman in front of him, Murong Qingwu felt that this woman was very dangerous and he should stay away from her as soon as possible... ···········
Although she didn't know why she still felt this way, Murong Qingwu hesitated for a moment, then rejected the maid next to her, and then slowly walked to the side of the mysterious woman. Although her face was covered with white gauze and her face could not be seen clearly, Murong Qingwu could feel that this mysterious woman must be very beautiful, maybe even not as beautiful as herself.
After looking at each other for a few seconds and seeing that the other party had no intention of speaking first, Murong Qingwu bowed slightly to him and said softly:
"You were hiding in the dark in Mingru Temple just now, right?"
