On the other side, at the Yamen of the Prefecture, Jiang Wei knelt in front of Yang Xun, clasped his fists and said, "My lord, the general has brought a total of 130,000 Northern Yan troops this time, and they have all been stationed outside Huaizhou City!"
The refined salt sold in Baisonglin was brought by Jiang Wei, who also brought an army of 130,000.
Jiang Wei had previously recruited 100,000 new soldiers in Beiyan. After training, these recruits had been sent to various cities in Beiyan to serve as defenders.
Half of the original Beiyan defenders were replaced, and they were all brought over by Jiang Wei.
"Very well, auxiliary machine, I will leave this 130,000-strong army to you. You must distribute it to various cities in Huaizhou in the shortest possible time and replace the original Huaizhou garrison!" Yang Xun He looked at Changsun Wuji and said.
Those Huaizhou troops who could surrender to Yang Xun would inevitably not surrender to others, so for the sake of safety, Yang Xun planned to use the Northern Yan army to garrison Huaizhou.
"All the replaced Huaizhou troops were transferred to Huaizhou City. By the way, the last time we counted the Huaizhou defenders, how many troops were there?"
Changsun Wuji hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Back to the prince, there are a total of 120,000 defenders in the 52 counties of Huaizhou's four counties."
Yang Xun nodded and looked at Jiang Wei: "Bo Yue, I now appoint you as the second-grade Southern General, responsible for the expedition against Xiangzhou. The 120,000 Huaizhou troops replaced will serve as the vanguard. I will give you the title again." Are there any problems with your 100,000 Qingzhou Army?"
Jiang Wei's face was filled with joy, and he quickly raised his hands and said: "I will definitely live up to the trust of the prince, and I will capture Xiangzhou within a month!"
He has been training troops in Beiyan for a long time, and the prince is finally going to send him to fight!
"Don't underestimate the enemy. I heard that the Princess of Huaizhou has mobilized 200,000 troops on the border of Xianghuai. Her strength cannot be underestimated." Yang Xun reminded.
When Yang Xun occupied Huaizhou, he basically didn't fight many battles, but Xiangzhou was different. With the support of her father and brother, Princess Xiang took control of the military power of Xiangzhou. She not only gathered the remaining soldiers, but also mobilized the entire Xiangzhou soldiers and horses, intending to have a collision with Yang Xun.
Jiang Wei smiled confidently and said, "My lord, don't worry. Although there are 200,000 troops in Xiangzhou, many of them were temporarily mobilized. Coupled with some of the remaining defeated troops before, they are simply vulnerable. If we can't take it within a month, Xiangzhou, my lord, you can behead me first!"
"Okay! Then I wish Boyue victory. When the Huaizhou army is assembled, you can lead the army and set off immediately!"
"I will obey your orders!"
Xue Rengui on the side looked at the excited Jiang Wei with envy in his eyes. He hadn't fought in a long time and his hands were already itchy.
At this moment, Yang Xun suddenly looked at Xue Rengui and said, "Rengui, how did the thing I asked you to do go?"
Xue Rengui came back to his senses and said quickly: "Back to my lord, the general has surrounded Jiajiazhuang with 10,000 Xuanjia troops and can launch an attack at any time. In addition, all the merchants and generals in the city who participated in Jia Dagui's plan are also being watched. As long as the prince gives the order, they can be captured at any time!"
"Okay, now let's wait for Jia Dagui to take action first. You can go down!" Yang Xun waved his hand.
After everyone left, Yang Xun looked at the electronic map in the system and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Now that he has occupied Beiyan and Huaizhou, the situation is excellent. Yang Xun believes that Jiang Wei will be able to capture Xiangzhou in a short time.
By then, not only would Yang Xun be able to complete the main mission of the system, but the entire northeastern part of Daqian, except for the most remote and barren Liaozhou, would also fall into Yang Xun's hands.
In fact, Yang Xun had never thought of taking over Liaozhou, which borders Beiyan, but Liaozhou is located in the most remote northeastern region of Daqian, with Beiyan to the west, Huaizhou to the south, and several large and small cities to the north and east. The countries border each other and there are constant disputes all year round. In addition, Liaozhou is a poor group. It can be said that the food is tasteless and it is a pity to abandon it.
Of course, there is a more important reason. Li Ping'an, the prince of Liaozhou, has been Yang Xun's best friend since childhood, and the two even burned yellow paper together.
Although the two hadn't seen each other for a long time, how could Yang Xun, such a beloved relative, friend, and brother, have the heart to steal his territory?
After taking Xiangzhou, you should expand further to the south. After taking Dongyu and Chuzhou, most of the country will fall into the hands of Yang Xun. By then, you can also fight face to face with King Ping Nan!
…
At the same time, Wuzhou, the Dongyu Army and the imperial coalition camp.
Dongwu King Yuan Hushan looked at the battle report in his hand and frowned, looking at Tingyang Hou Lan Youtu aside.
"Brother Lan, are you sure that little brat Yang Xun won't come to attack my Dongyu? I have received news that he has occupied the entire territory of Huaizhou and has assembled more than 300,000 troops outside Huaizhou City. To the south is my Dongyu Island!"
In order to block King Pingnan in Wuzhou, Yuan Hushan mobilized all the troops and horses that Dongyu could mobilize this time. If Yang Xun was assassinated from Dongyu from the north, Dongyu would be gone.
"Probably not. Although this kid is naughty by nature, he is not ignorant. He occupied Huaizhou because the King of Huai attacked him first. If my guess is correct, his next step should be to attack Xiangzhou. Yes." Lan Youtu thought for a while and said.
Although he was also very angry at Yang Xun for not sending troops to support the imperial court but instead running to grab territory, Yang Xun was his future son-in-law after all, and he still wanted to put in a good word for Yang Xun.
"Oh, I hope so, but I have said something ugly in front of you. If this kid comes to attack me in Dongyu, I will withdraw my troops." Yuan Hushan said.
Lan Youtu frowned. They had finally blocked King Pingnan from Wuzhou. Now the two sides are confronting each other. If King Dongwu withdraws, the balance will be broken instantly, and the imperial army is likely to be defeated. .
But he had no choice. King Dongwu was not here to help the court. He just understood the meaning of death and wanted to avoid war in Dongyu, so he sent troops to Wuzhou.
In fact, until now, Lan Youtu is still a little unable to do what he wants.
There are few vassal kings in the south and few troops. Just like Wuzhou, there is no vassal king in charge. If Lan Youtu and Yuan Hushan were not here, I am afraid that it would be captured by King Pingnan in less than a month.
This is also the reason why the four southern states fell into the hands of King Pingnan so quickly.
It can be said that there are basically no other vassal kings in the south. Only King Pingnan's family is the dominant one, so he can sweep the entire south.
However, those vassal kings with heavy troops refused to send troops. The 200,000 troops and horses in his hands were finally gathered by the court.
If King Dongwu withdraws his troops, Lan Youtu will never be a match for King Pingnan.
Now Lan Youtu can only pray that Yang Xun will not cheat his father-in-law, and fight wherever he likes, as long as he doesn't hit Dongyu!
Thinking of this, Lan Youtu couldn't help but cursed secretly: "Damn it, Yang Xun, you little bastard. Your father has been loyal all his life, but how come he is so rebellious when he comes to you? The other vassals are at least still watching, and you, little bastard, are you?" You are a land grabr, I really believed your evil deeds, if you really cheated me, I will definitely beat your father up when I get down!"
