The dark night, the misty rain, the slight wind.

There is a silent army running on the post road between Wansheng Town and Heyin County.

There was no noise or complaint, and the torch ran into the distance like a long dragon.

"Da Lang can drink this cup in a long journey." In Wansheng Town, Zhu Quanzhong held up the wine bottle high and was full of energy.

Zhu Zhen picked up the wine bottle and drank it all.

After drinking all the wine, the two laughed together, as if they had let go of their past grudges.

"Are you sure you go here?" Zhu Quanzhong looked at Zhu Zhen with a bright look and asked.

"I'm not sure." Zhu Zhen replied.

"You are still so bad!" Zhu Quanzhong laughed and scolded: "Everyone who uses military force thinks the thief is wise and powerful, and he is restrained."

"If you suffer a loss, you will naturally have a memory." Zhu Zhen said with a wry smile...

Zhu Quanzhong's eyes narrowed and he secretly wondered if Zhu Zhen's words had any other meaning. Was he saying that he believed the people of Yun surrendered and rushed into the city, which led to the annihilation of all the soldiers entering the city, or was he saying that he was idle and was scattered?

But he quickly woke up. Now it was not the time to say this. He smiled and said, "It's better to be cautious. I'll leave it to you."

"Do your best." Zhu Zhen didn't promise anything. He was like this, always leaving room for himself.

"I believe you." Zhu Quanzhong got up in person, poured another glass of wine for Zhu Zhen, and said, "But I still remember the time when you and I met Shao Zhe in the Battle of Tongzhou?"

"Is it that time Zhuge Shuang?"

"Yes." Zhu Quanzhong sat down and said, "Zhuge Shuang takes charge, Zhu Mei, Yi Zhao and Shao Shude are the generals. The entire army must have 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers, right? I only have more than 10,000 troops outside the city, defeat Yi Zhao, and attack Shao's thieves, and retreat."

"Many old brothers died that time." Zhu Zhen was a little sad.

"Even if you don't die, you will have to be taken away by Wang Chongrong." Zhu Quanzhong sighed.

He was a soldier at that time, but Meng Kai was still jealous of him and detained all his letters for help, so that Huang Chao and Shangrang had no idea about Tonghua's situation and surrendered to the court in anger.

After surrendering, the only ten thousand soldiers were also annexed by Wang Chongrong. However, the king was quite conscientious and finally allowed Zhu Quanzhong to pick up a battalion of 500 people and take them away from the town Xuanwu as the commander.

"Wang Chongrong has no good ending either." Zhu Zhen smiled and said, "It's a pity that ten thousand old brothers were annexed by Wang Chongrong and were incorporated into the Hezhong Army. Last year, Shao's bandits attacked Hezhong, and countless people died in battle."

"I won't talk about them anymore. Now our foundation is in Bianzhou. After you go to Zhengzhou, I will run around. This foundation requires you and I to work together to maintain it. From now on, we will share wealth and honor together." Zhu Quanzhong raised the wine bottle again and said.

Zhu Zhen raised her glass to meet her.

Of course, he would only listen to half of the words of King Liang. After experiencing this period of idleness, he had figured out too many things. Once a person is rich, he will easily forget his old brothers and will easily suspect his old brothers.

When the King of Liang was just starting to do so, he was so wise and heroic that he was also very convinced of his brothers. It was very convincing to share the blessings and share the difficulties.

Zhu Zhen was also devoted to Zhu Quanzhong and worked hard to make many wonderful achievements—

The company has made outstanding contributions to train sergeants, recruiting new recruits, fighting on the battlefield, etc., and there is no other person to compare with.

When recruiting new recruits, Guo Yan made trouble, and Zhu Zhen could rely on ten thousand new recruits to defeat the thieves and return smoothly, and he still needed more than a thousand horses.

At the critical moment of fighting for Yicheng Town, Zhu Zhenxue entered Huazhou at night and captured An Shiru.

The defeat of Qin Zongquan outside Bianzhou City curbed Cai's arrogance.

The battle of Wukang Town severely damaged Shi Pu's main force, laying the foundation for victory.

The famous Wei Bo army defeated several times and annihilated its elite Leopard Capital.

He went to Caozhou and Puzhou in a row, and forced the thieves to surrender when he attacked Yunzhou, and then he was defeated.

Heyang defeated Li Keyong and was majestic.

It can be said that in the early days when Zhu Quanzhong took power, Zhu Zhen's role was unsold, and his military achievements were far beyond the rest of the generals. He was the well-deserved number one general of the Bian Army.

Especially many new recruits were brought out by him, and the former Xuanwu army Yang Yanhong, Li Si'an, He Delun and other departments were also integrated and digested one by one, and the Cai thief who was included was selected and trained by him.

He recommended dozens of generals to Zhu Quanzhong, and many of them were promoted by Zhu Zhen, and everyone was grateful for his kindness.

He has prestige, can fight, always wins battles, has extremely deep connections in the army, and has trusted and loyalists all over the states. Of course, such a person will not be tolerated by Zhu Quanzhong.

It is already considered a waste of money. If Zhu Quanzhong had replaced his later years, his corpse would be rotten.

But at this difficult time, Zhu Quanzhong also let go of his pride and had a long conversation with Zhu Zhen. He was very upset and devastated in his words. He re-activated this general and used him to stabilize the Yellow River defense line.

Zhu Zhen was a little moved, but more moved.

If you are not forced to this point by Shao Shude, you won’t think of me, right?

But no matter what, he still has feelings for Zhu Quanzhong and will not betray him. Even if he wants to rebel, it is probably not possible. Like the Xia army, the Bian army is a team led by the commander. The second person is the second person. It is difficult to have a chance before the commander dies.

As for the son of the head coach, of course it won't work. If Zhu Quanzhong won the world and died before Zhu Zhen, then the first person he wanted to kill before his death was Zhu Zhen and Hu Zhen, there was no doubt about it.

Zhu Zhen's family has already gone to Zhengzhou in advance, and this time it was proposed by Zhu Quanzhong.

When Zhu Quanzhong was suspected and lost his trust, the fuse was that Zhu Zhen brought his family to his side. Times changed, but unexpectedly, Zhu Quanzhong took the initiative to ask Zhu Zhen to bring his family with him, which was like a different person.

After drinking the last glass of wine with Zhu Quanzhong, Zhu Zhen bowed and left with great strides.

Zhu Quanzhong looked outside the post station for a long time, then turned over and walked back to Bianzhou at night.

The atmosphere in Bianzhou City is not as good as before.

Many of the soldiers who went to the war failed to come back, and they didn't even know where the corpse was buried, which made people feel sad.

However, as the family of the warrior, they have long been accustomed to all this.

Since the difficulties, most wars have occurred in Henan Road. The far away are the Anshi Rebellion and the subsequent separatist areas of the three towns of Heshuo, the slightly closer are the Huaixi Rebellion and the Pang Xun Rebellion in Xuzhou. The most recent are the Huang Chao and Qin Zongquan Rebellion. The current situation has also trained the strong will of the people of Henan. This is also the main reason why Henan soldiers scattered east and west and suppressed the towns: due to the current situation.

In the north, Henan is the best quality military source, followed by Hedong and Hebei. Guanzhong soldiers should have the worst quality, because they have been through peace.

Shao Shude refused to recruit Guanzhong soldiers nearby. He chose Henan soldiers first, followed by Guanbei and Helong soldiers. Guanzhong surrendered soldiers only had strong strength. The peaceful life in Guanzhong caused the people to dare to fight to the death. In history, Fengxiang Li Maozhen's army of 60,000 were beaten by 5,000 Bian army. Such soldiers really frowned. Not to mention, Li Keyong could also abuse the princes of Guanzhong at will. Although there were factors such as the ability of generals, it was also true that they could not defeat the front-line field battle.

This is actually a paradox. I fought to the death and fought for the next generation a peaceful and prosperous life. I could laugh at those places where I was still fighting and killing and turbulent. But my next generation was not as cruel as those places, and I was more afraid of death than them. I couldn't beat them, which made people speechless.

Liu Zhijun arrived in Bianzhou under such circumstances.

The influence army has been destroyed, and now the soldiers of Xuzhen all have to find another way out. King Liang seems to be beyond Shi Pu's ability. Seeing that his measures to provide relief to the people, repair ditches, and encourage production are all done by the wise ruler, and it is indeed more worthy of surrender.

The prosperity of Bianzhou made him feel very moved, and he was also thinking.

Living in such a place, can this generation of old people still fight, and will the next generation of new people still dare to fight for their lives? Do we need to constantly absorb elite troops from other states and enrich the Bian army? Then the children of Xuzhen Military Academy may have a way out.

Liu Zhijun was quickly led to the Zhu Mansion. At this time, many people had already come, but most of them didn't know him. He could only stand in the corner like a minion and listen silently.

"I have a responsibility for the defeat of Heyang." Zhu Quanzhong sat in the upper head, his voice loudly: "This battle was too hasty, and it may not have been launched. The two thieves in Yan and Yun rekindled and attacked Caozhou, causing me to lose sight of each other. This is my fault."

Everyone's expressions were slightly slowed down when they heard this.

After King Liang became a leader, he became more and more humble and took the responsibility for this battle on himself. Pang Shigu and Zhang Shensi were defeated and did not blame him. Pang Shigu even continued to lead his troops. Zhang Shensi probably still had a chance in the future, and he was only refrigerated for a while.

This has some effect on uniting people's hearts.

"You have also seen the strength of Xia thieves, and they are still very capable. Shao Shude has been in charge for many years and has heard that Lingzhou has been very good. He can also gather and fight, and this is a strong enemy." Zhu Quanzhong continued: "From now on, you must not be arrogant anymore. You can destroy Huang Chao, Qin Zongquan, and Shi Pu, it is nothing, they are all gone. Now you have to start over and stabilize the situation first, and you will have a great chance of winning. News from Ru Cai that Ding Hui once again attacked Suizhou, plundered and returned. When he returned to his army, Guangzhou was occupied by the thieves. He destroyed it at the same time and captured all the five counties. This is a great victory."

Today in Bianzhou, there is indeed a little news of victory.

The Xia thieves were weak in strength on the southern road. Ding Hui, Ge Congzhou, and Yang Shihou were all talented as generals. Tens of thousands of troops were overwhelmed and recovered Shenzhou, which was captured by Xia thieves. Then they attacked Tang twice, followed the two states, and obtained Guangzhou again when they returned to the army. As the saying goes, the lost land was supplemented in the south. Although Shen and Guangzhou were both vassals Du Hong's territory - only belonged to Du Hong in name only.

Speaking of Eyue Town, the situation has been relatively stable recently.

Zhao Kuangning of Xiangyang has already stopped his troops and returned to the army. Perhaps he will attack Du Hong in the future, but it will not happen overnight.

After Wu, a local tyrant in Huangzhou, surrendered to Yang Xingmi, Du Hong sent troops to attack him, and Yang Xingmi ordered Zhu Yanshou to lead the army to rescue him.

The governor of Qizhou, Feng Jingzhang, fought with the Huai army, and won a small victory. However, Xing had many secret troops and retreated to Qizhou. The Huai army besieged Qizhou, but failed to capture it for a long time, and the generals were lost. Qi general Jia Gongduo led his troops from other counties to reinforce, defeated Xingmi's siege troops, and entered the aid city.

Feng Jingzhang and Jia Gongduo were both thieves from Caizhou. They were brave and good at fighting and could not defeat them, so they retreated.

However, the governor of Huangzhou Wu Dai was frightened by Du Hong and Feng Jingzhang's military power, and thought he could not fight, so he presented seals to Yang Xingmi, who officially controlled Huangzhou and was currently preparing for the second war to fight E Yue.

"Grandmaster, General Ding defeated the thieves and controlled Guangzhou. However, Guangzhou is a prefecture in Huainan Town. Although there are many troubles in the Jianghuai River, it is difficult to deal with the secrets and difficult to control for a while. However, this move may be harmful to Bian. Yang's friendship, I hope the general will be careful." Jing Xiang suddenly said.

Huainan Town was initially established (756) and led Yang, Chu, Shu, He, Chu, Lu, Shou, Guang, and Su Jiuzhou, with a military quota of 35,000. A year later, Suzhou was abolished, and five provinces were added to the five provinces, and Guangzhou was abolished, and there were 12 states.

Two years later, Mianzhou entered Eyue Town, and Shouzhou entered Huaixi Town. In the first year of Yongtai (765), Qi and Huang returned to Eyue. In the second year of Jianzhong (781), Sizhou was added; in the first year of Xingyuan (784), Shou, Hao, and Lu were abolished...

The jurisdiction of this town has been changed many times. Generally speaking, Yang, Chu, Shu, He, Lu, Shou and Chu Qizhou are its traditional territory and have the longest subordinate period. The locals also consider themselves to be from Huainan Town.

Hao, Si and Guang are often led by Huainan Town. It is hard to say whether they are from Huainan or Xuzhou or Cai.

But no matter what, according to the latest zoning, Hao and Si do not belong to Huainan Town, and Guangzhou belong to Huainan Town.

Yang Xingmi found Sizhou as "illegal", and Zhu Quanzhong found Guang, Chu and Shou also found "illegal".

Zhu Quanzhong had just appointed Zhang Tingfan, the governor of Songzhou, as the governor of the army of influence. There were actually five states of Xu, Su, Hao, Shou and Chu. Although he was angry about Yang Xingmi's acquisition of Sizhou, he made accusations and obviously did not want to worsen the relationship.

Although Gwangju is actually in a state of separatism, just like the previous rebellious Lu, He and Xuan, Dante would attack without authorization. Is it appropriate? Jingxiang believes that there should not be any trouble at this time.

"You can send an envoy to Yangzhou to find out the news." Zhu Quanzhong said: "How can Yang Xingmi attack Du Hong take care of my face? Qian Liu attacked Run near him, and Yang Xingmi has a lot of things."

Run and Changzhou belong to the town of Zhejiang, and are Qian Li's territory. Among them, Runzhou is the capital of Zhejiang, and is occupied by Yang Xingmi. Qian Li can only live in Hangzhou. How can he not get angry? War is inevitable.

Yang Xingmi also started a war on both sides and was very brave. I heard that he was still coveting Jiangxi recently and wanted to start a war on three sides. If he gets into evil with Xuanwu again, would he want to start a war on all sides? He doesn't have the ability yet.

Jing Xiang agreed: "It's good to talk about it. The general needs to pay more attention to the prefectures along the Huai River."

"This is natural." Zhu Quanzhong nodded.

Yesterday he had just beheaded the military general Zhang Conghui. Zhu Quanzhong sent him to Shouzhou to comfort and comfort him, but he was arrogant and insulted the governor Jiang Yanwen. At the same time, he drank with the generals of Shouzhou at night. Jiang felt that Zhu Quanzhong was going to deal with him, so he killed all the Shouzhou Military Academy where he dated Zhang Conghui, and then wrote a letter to Zhu Quanzhong and committed suicide.
