When my main formation and the baggage carriages and horses appeared on the plains through the steep Taihang Mountains and rugged mountains, I got the news that the last city of resistance in the northern part of Shangdang Platform was the capital of Bizhou, Biyang City (now Tanghe, Shanxi), also announced that it had fallen into the city.

Since then, the four states of Shangdang in the Hedong interior line have been lowered, and the sidewalls of the Hedong land have been unblocked. The access to Hedong to the inner gate has also opened the door to us and can be cut off at any time.

Compared with Guannei Road, which is known as the "800-mile fertile soil of Qinchuan" and "the foundation of the emperor", it is also the first winning Henan Duji Road in Zhongzhou, or the Hebei Road in the Central Plains, and the history of Hedong Road in history, known as "mountains and rivers in the outside world" and "thousands of miles" (now most of Shanxi Province and northwest of Hebei Province), most of the areas are steep and steep;

Therefore, the vast majority of the cities and populations of the 18 prefectures under the jurisdiction of Hedong were divided into 18 prefectures and prefectures, including the winding mountain folds and rift rivers, and after the high and low drops were divided, they were concentrated between the Shangdang platform in the east, the northwest Taiyuan Prefecture to the southwest Hezhong Prefecture, and several large basins including.

As a result, once the mountains of Taihang, Taiyue and Wangwu in the east are dangerously broken, these are distributed among the plains, basins, river valleys, and many cities and people under their jurisdiction are the basic result of being stormed down one by one according to the geographical trend.

Therefore, it was only two days since the Luzhou capital Changzhi. When my original formation sent troops to the northwest to cross the Taiyue Mountains in the hinterland of Hedong and entered the Jinzhong Plain where the Sanjin hub, Fenzhou, was located, the battle to attack Taiyuan Prefecture in the north was also in the end.

Under the tactics of attacking military commander and commander of the Sixth Army on Hedong Road, Zhe Keshi, who united all the troops to attack first and retreat first and retreat, and attacked and lured the enemy. Finally, under the Taiyuan City, which was intermittently besieged, tens of thousands of Hedong Army who returned to the rescue and were exhausted;

Among them, more than 10,000 people were killed in the last battle. Under the leadership of Zhang Dekun, the former pseudo-Northern Han Dynasty, the remaining troops had already competed to retreat to the south along the Fen River to the Linfen Basin;

Then, Taiyuan City, which had lost its fighting spirit and will to resist, has since fallen without blood. After all, what else can be more effective than witnessing the defeat and annihilation of reinforcements and main forces in front of the defenders, and the result of destroying morale and destroying the will to resist.

At this time, the unknown number of support from the Western Army had just entered Hedong through the Northern Yanzhou of Guannei Road. With several routes of Pinglu, which had gone south to fight outposts and pursued the enemy's forces, the pioneers from Hebei began to encounter and join forces.

............

At the same time, the downstream of the Fen River,

The prince of the Northern Liang King Xu Tianlang, whose courtesy name is Fengnian, was also in the process of rapid advance to the north. The smoke and dust of the marching dragon cavalry gathered into a long dragon with no end to the end.

As a first-class family that is important among the northwestern vassal states and generals of the general family, his ancestors were once a vassal and general of the Guazhou Zhao family on the left side of Helan Mountain. Later, he was able to establish his own family north of Liangzhou and become a hero and general family. As a result, he maintained a complex and difficult-to-distinguish relationship with his former benefactor and his superior Zhao family.

Although he was known as a playboy since childhood, he actually had a hiding gullies and a good plan. Therefore, in the later struggles and struggles of local forces in the northwest, he was both for self-protection and kept a low profile. In his early years, he left home and traveled abroad in the Central Plains, and even stayed in the Luodu market for a long time. He enjoyed making friends with all kinds of religions and various geniuses. He also experienced a different flavor and interest in life, and also met several unforgettable confidants and loyal friends.

Until later, Luodu changed drastically, and he had to escape from this land that had become a dead place on earth and Shura Field; he fled westward and passed Tongguan and finally returned home, took over the heavy responsibility of the family entrusted by his father, and obtained the assistance of the Zhao family, who was gradually alienated by marriage, and revitalized the reputation of the Xu family in the Northern Liang Dynasty.

However, what he cared about at this moment was another matter; because, before his personal command of the army came, the cheap brother-in-law was also a brother-in-law, and the words he had personally passed on seemed to be vivid in his ears.

According to the other party's words, this situation is actually not the result that the Marshal's Office of the World's Military and Horses and the Xining court directly or indirectly promoted and promoted, and even quite happy to see.

Just like the Emperor Chengguang who took advantage of the situation to create a generation of foundations in history, many stories that are talked about have repeated;

Now under the banner of the Western Army, although there are many numbers and military orders, there are also differences between relatives and distant places; those mixed flows that are not core and stance-oriented, peripheral forces, and even local forces that are forced to coerce from the Xining court or later subjugate; they will play the role of stepping stones and paving the way for the king.

Under the various intentional immediate interests and short-term threats, the tribes and children had to stay in the south and not be returned. The extremely empty northwest hinterland and the foundation passed down from generation to generation were left to the Xining court led by the Zhao family and its close powerful factions. Those close forces and troops who were drawn and returned to the north in the name of preparing for the enemy were particularly important links and backers.

In this way, even if they regret and wake up and want to withdraw in time, the territory they have occupied and the wealth to attract the soldiers, and the entanglement between the Southern Army and the Huai Army in front of them, it will be a difficult situation to get rid of the tiger; even if someone wants to withdraw from the ground or change his course, he has occupied the rear path and the victorious land in the name of supervising the formation and severely punishing the escape in the battle, it will become a crying and nightmare that they have to swallow.

Then, once the time is right, you can follow the story of Emperor Gaozu of Tang resisting foreign enemies and receiving internal Zen, and complete the routine replacement of the Western Tang withdrawing from the short-term historical stage. This is a new dynasty pattern that covers the northwest half of the world as its foundation.

The lineage of the Northern Liang King of Xu will become the first-class foreign relatives and aristocratic family who shared the same weal and woe after the establishment of the new dynasty, and will be the leader of the six founding kings and manage the two rivers.

Therefore, while trying our best to rescue Hedong Road, we must also pay attention to preserving our strength and pacifying the hearts of local people. Make plans for long-term garrison and management in the future.

However, what disappointed him next was that although many battles and messages were heard from the enemy, the final result was the banner of the Pinglu Army, the Hebei Army, and even the Liang Army in Henan, and no one was seen in the true Huai Army. To be honest, he was also famous for the Huai Army, which was known as "invincible" and "the best in field battles" and "the best in defense".

Then there was a news that made the dissatisfaction and resentment accumulated in his heart suddenly gathered to the extreme.

Because, just before their reinforcements arrived, the Hedong army had already retreated from the Taiyuan city; and what was even worse was that after his vanguard arrived in Linfen City, he found that the local Hedong County was already without a leader, and was like a mess.

Because long before they received the news that reinforcements were coming, Zhang Dekun, the king of Shunyi, was the lord of Hedong, and he had a personal guard out of sight while patrolling the terrain. Then the remaining troops were at a loss and were at a loss. By the time the Western Army arrived, they had already robbed the treasury and the military funds and scattered. They continued to stay in the place and were in a panic all day long.

It was not until a few days later that someone had received relatively clear news in the western mountainous area. This former lord of the Northern Han Kingdom and the Lord of Hedong finally chose to take care of his own safety, leaving behind most of the army and people, with only the elite children's confidants and a large number of the most valuable soft and soft materials, along the gorge between the Luliang Mountains in Shizhou (now Linfen, Shanxi) in the east and west of the river, and fled to Suizhou in the direction of the pass.
