After reintegration of the Southeast Fang Army, a total of seven corpses were formed. Among them, Zhao Lianjin, the commander of the Second Corps, can be regarded as the most resourceful general under Zhang Mingqi. Among the eight guards under his Second Corps, there are also the eighth guards, the ninth guard, the tenth guard, the eleventh guard and the twelfth guard, which ranks highly on combat effectiveness of the Southeast Fang Army.

Even the other three guards that were formed by the Second Corps of the Southeast Fang Army were recently recruited from the above five guards, and their combat effectiveness was not weak.

However, after the Second Corps of the Southeast Xiang Army, with a total strength of up to one million, entered the eastern part of Fuzhou, it suffered a great loss from the Eastern Barbarian Alliance led by the Qingyi people. The newly formed 38th Guard of the Second Corps of the Southeast Xiang Army was almost wiped out by the Eastern Barbarian Alliance. The Ninth Guard, which can be called ace in the Second Corps of the Southeast Xiang Army, also suffered heavy losses.

"What did Wang Heng do for? The two guards combined with 250,000 people were defeated by the Qingyi army, which was less than 200,000, and lost 150,000 people. Wang Heng immediately came to Fukang City to see me!" Zhao Lianjin, the commander of the Second Corps of the Southeast Fang Army, said to the generals under his command with a gloomy face.

After Zhao Lianjin led a million troops from the Southeast Fang Army to Fukang City, Fuzhou Prefecture, he divided two separate divisions to attack the two counties occupied by the Eastern Barbarian Alliance. The Ninth Guard and the Thirty-Eighth Guard were one of the side divisions, and the other split division was composed of the twelfth Guard and the Thirty-Ninth Guard.

Zhao Lianjin led the troops of four guards to stay in Fukang City, preparing to take an opportunity to attack the main force of the Eastern Barbarian Alliance.

Peng Yong, the commander of the Eighth Guard of the Second Corps of the Southeast Fang Army, hesitated for a moment and said, "Chief is relieved. According to the news that Wang Heng sent back, the Ninth Guard and the Thirty-Eighth Guard should have encountered the elite of the Qingyi people, otherwise with the strength of the Ninth Guard, there should not be such a huge loss."

"Hmph, there is no need to make excuses for Wang Heng. No matter what, the Qingyi people only have more than 100,000 people, and almost all of them are infantry. Wang Heng has a total of 250,000 people and a brigade of cavalry. How did he fight this battle?" Zhao Lianjin said angrily.

To be honest, Zhao Lianjin and the top leaders of the Southeast Fang Army did not pay much attention to the almost purely infantry Eastern Barbarian Alliance. You should know that the Southeast Fang Army had just driven the powerful Lu army out of Zhejiang and Fuzhou. The Southeast Fang Army was at a high morale. As a result, the Second Corps of the Southeast Fang Army was not good, and they lost 150,000 people in one battle.

Peng Yong then said: "Master, the ninth guard has suffered heavy losses now, and the 38th guard has suffered severe damage. It is better to let these two guards temporarily retreat to Fukang City and join the main force of our Second Legion."

Zhao Lianjin took a deep breath and calmed his emotions a little. "Order the Ninth Guard and the Thirty-Eighth Guard to withdraw to Fukang City immediately, and let the Ninth Guard and the Thirty-Ninth Guard also retreat. Since the combat power of the Eastern Barbarian Alliance is stronger than we expected, then we can only change the tactics."

The purpose of Zhao Lianjin's division of two sub-department divisions was to use two sub-department divisions to attract the main force of the Eastern Barbarian Alliance. Then Zhao Lianjin led the four guards of the Second Corps to wait for an opportunity to attack the main force of the Eastern Barbarian Alliance. However, before the main force of the Eastern Barbarian Alliance was moved, the second Corps' side division was crippled by the Eastern Barbarian Alliance troops, which made it impossible for Zhao Lianjin to implement the tactics originally formulated.

In the prefecture of Fukang City, Fuzhou Prefecture, Bi Mo, the governor of Fuzhou Prefecture, sighed and said to his confidant, Fuzhou Biezhou Bian, and said, "I originally thought that after the Southeast Xiang Army entered Fuzhou, the coalition forces of the Eastern Man tribes could be driven back to the 100,000 mountains, but it seemed that the Southeast Xiang Army was not worthy of its name. He lost 150,000 troops just after fighting with the Eastern Man coalition. I am increasingly worried about the situation in Fuzhou."

"Cough cough, the Southeast Xiang Army is in Zhejiang and Fuzhou. The reason why the invading army of Lu is largely because it has taken advantage of the terrain. However, the Lord of the State of Zhou Mu does not need to worry too much. This time, the court used half of Suzhou to exchange for the Southeast Xiang Army to send troops to Fuzhou and the Southeast Xiang Army... Cough cough, the Southeast Xiang Army will definitely try every means to drive the East Barbarian Alliance back to the 100,000 mountains. With the millions of troops of the Southeast Xiang Army, the East Barbarian Alliance cannot afford it, cough cough, " Kou Xi, the former governor of Fuzhou, cough, while coughing, he said to Bi Mo, the governor of the state.

Bi Mo, the governor of the state, saw that Kou Xi was constantly coughing, and said with concern: "Mr. Kou, has your illness improved a little recently?"

"Cough cough thanks for the care of Master Mu of Zhou. Mr. Kou has hired many famous doctors for this disease. Unfortunately, these famous doctors are helpless. Mr. Kou can only survive every day, cough cough."

Zhou Mu Bi Mo suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Don't let me catch the murderer who assassinated Lord Kou, otherwise I must cut him into pieces!"

It turned out that Kou Xi, a Bieguard in Fuzhou, was assassinated more than two years ago. Although under the protection of the guards, Kou Xi finally saved his life, he was seriously injured by an assassin's arrow, and this arrow also injured Kou Xi's lungs.

Kou Xi is a knowledgeable and talented person, with strong abilities in all aspects. If Kou Xi had not been seriously injured more than two years ago, the situation in Fuzhou would definitely not be that the prefecture governor Bi Mo and the prefect of Qinghua County Jiang Jian were evenly matched with the prefecture governor Jiang Jian. Even the prefect of Qinghua County Jiang Jian was even stronger than that of the prefecture governor Bi Mo.

Don’t take the opportunity to smile bitterly: “Ahem, no one of the assassins who assassinated me was left behind, and no clues were left on the assassins. It seems that it can only be a headless case, and it’s all over the place, but it’s nothing.

Bi Mo, the governor of the state, immediately said, "Mr. Kou, do you think it was sent by Jiang Jian, the prefect of Qinghua County, who sent someone to do it?"

"Cough cough, no matter whether it was sent by Jiang Jian, the prefect of Qinghua County, we have no evidence in our hands. Besides, Jiang Jian, the prefect of Qinghua County, has now occupied the four counties. Even if we have the evidence in our hands that can prove that it is from Jiang Jian, what can we do?"

After hearing what Boy Gu Xi said, Bi Mo sighed helplessly, "Mr. Kou, do you think the Eastern Man Alliance will come to attack Fukang City next?"

"Cough cough, please don't worry, from the perspective of subordinates, the Eastern Barbarian Alliance, which is dominated by the Qingyi people, does not mean to fight to the end with our Great Jin. Otherwise, the Eastern Barbarian Alliance would have gathered a large army to seize Fukang City before the Southeast Fang Army entered Fuzhou!"

In the county yamen in Luanxi County, Suwei County, Fuzhou, the southern king of Qingyi people, Wumengkez, said to dozens of generals of the Dongman tribe with excitement: "I didn't expect that the famous Jin Southeast Fang Army was just like this. This time, our Qingyi people dispatched 100,000 people, and the Daihe people dispatched 50,000 people, and defeated the 250,000 troops of the Southeast Fang Army. Just captured more than 70,000 prisoners. It seems that we don't need to retreat to the 100,000 mountains for the time being!"

No wonder Wumengkez, the king of the southern Qingyi people, was so excited. This time, the Qingyi people's 100,000 troops, plus the Daihe people's 50,000 troops, fought on the plains with the two guards of the Second Corps of the Southeast Xiang Army. The coalition of the Qingyi people and the Daihe people first used infantry combat formations to block the charge of the Cavalry of the Seventh Guard of the Southeast Xiang Army.

The Qingyi and Daihe clans then defeated multiple infantry battle formations of the two guards of the Second Army of the Southeast Xiang Army with a counterattack, causing the Southeast Xiang Army to be defeated. In the end, the Qingyi and Daihe clans annihilated the 150,000 Southeast Xiang Army with less than 25,000 losses, and almost half of the prisoners accounted for.

The chieftain of the Dai He tribe, Shamarila, said loudly: "Wumeng, the main force of the Southeast Fang army entered Fuzhou this time, the main force of the army gathered in Fukang City, Fuzhou Prefecture, and the main force of the army in Fuzhou Prefecture Bi Mo's hands also gathered in Fukang City. It would be better for our army of all ethnic groups to concentrate their strength and take Fukang City directly! Once Fukang City is defeated by our army of all ethnic groups, the Jin army of the entire Fuzhou will have no strength to stop our army of all ethnic groups from conquering the city!"

Wumengkez, the king of the southern Qingyi people, listened to the suggestion of the Daihe people's chieftain Shamarila, hesitated and said: "Although this great victory made us realize that the combat effectiveness of the Southeast Xiang Army is also very average, the troops of the Southeast Xiang Army entering Fuzhou this time are there. Moreover, the army of the Southeast Xiang Army and the army of the Fuzhou Prefecture Pimo still occupy the city's benefits in Fukang City. Our Qingyi people sent troops to Jin State this time not to conquer the city."

The Dai He tribe chieftain Shamarila nodded and sighed, "The king of Wumeng is right. The most important thing now is to let the people of Jin quickly send Wumeng Yisha and Wumenggemeng back."

The Dai He chieftain Shamarila was very affectionate with the Qing Yi princess Wumeng Yisha. After learning that the southeastern Fang army of Jin entered Fuzhou, the Qing Yi people would probably withdraw their troops. Shamarila drew 150,000 troops from the Dai He people to enter Fuzhou, which made the total force of the Dai He army entering Fuzhou reach 350,000. You should know that the entire Dai He people only have more than two million people.

Shamarila hopes to use the performance of the Dai He people to influence the decision of the Qingyi people Wumeng Aguo, and not to let the Qingyi army retreat from the Jin State Fuzhou.

The Dai He Tushimarila then asked Wumengkez, the king of the southern Qingyi people, again: "King Wumeng, what are your plans for the next step?"

Wumengkz pondered for a moment and said, "Our coalition forces are still defending the eastern part of the Jin State of Fuzhou, waiting for the Southeast Xiang Army to attack. In this way, the benefits of the city will be on our coalition forces. As long as we can form a stalemate with the Southeast Xiang Army in Fuzhou, the people who can't stand it in the end must be the Jin people. I hope the Jin people can return Wumeng Yisha and Wumeng Gemeng to our Qingyi people. I don't know how Wumeng Yisha and Wumeng Gemeng are now?"

In a conference hall in the palace of the Palace Museum in Chengzhou, Ningbo, the Southeast Governor Zhang Mingqi threw the letter in his hand on the ground, and then said coldly: "The Second Legion really made our Southeast Army more handsome! The two guards combined with 250,000 people, and about 25,000 cavalrymen, were defeated by less than 200,000 infantrymen, and the losses even exceeded 150,000. What is the commander of Zhao Lianjin doing for food?"

At this time, in the conference hall, the six most important generals of the Southeast Fang Army were present, including Zhou Jiling, Liu Fengbao, Wu Zan, Chen Hongxin, Fan Dongying and Yuan Tianba. However, Zhao Lianjin had always had a bad relationship with the four people in the front and was not familiar with the two people behind, so no one of the six Southeast Fang Army generals came forward to defend Zhao Lianjin.

At this time, Zhang Mingqi's confidant adviser Tang Yan said, "Don't be angry. Judging from the battle report sent by the commander of Zhao Lianjin's army, the combat effectiveness of the Dongman army is much stronger than we expected. The two guards who fought with the Dongman army this time have the ace ninth guard of the Second Army, and the commander of the Ninth Guard Wang Heng is a fierce general who has been fighting on the battlefield for many years. The two guards of the Second Army were defeated by the Dongman army with superior troops. It can be seen that we underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Dongman army."

Zhang Mingqi snorted coldly and said, "Can the Eastern Barbarian army still be stronger than the Lu army? Millions of elite troops from Lu are still driven out of Zhejiang and Fuzhou by our Southeast Fang army!"

Staffman Tang Yan did not accept Zhang Mingqi's words. In fact, Staffman Tang Yan knew very well that the Southeast Fang Army could block the Lu army in Zhejiang and Fuzhou and force the Lu army to withdraw from Zhejiang and Fuzhou in shame, entirely because the Southeast Fang Army occupied the advantage of the terrain. Moreover, even if the Southeast Fang Army was on the defensive position, the losses would far exceed the attacking Lu army. If the Southeast Fang Army and the Lu army set up a head-on decisive battle on the plain, the Southeast Fang Army could be said to have no hope of winning.

Staff member Tang Yan changed the topic and said, "Lord, since the combat effectiveness of the Dongman army exceeded our estimates, should we send some more troops to Fuzhou? With the Second Corps alone, it may not be possible to drive the Dongman army back to the 100,000 mountains."

Zhang Mingqi thought about it for a while before nodding slowly, "Now the imperial court has handed over half of Suzhou, including Qinhuai City, the prefecture of the prefecture, to our Southeast Fang Army. Since I, Zhang Mingqi, have received the benefits, I will not be untrustworthy. Then I will send some more troops to Fuzhou to drive the Dongman coalition forces in Fuzhou back to the 100,000 mountains as soon as possible."

Then Zhang Mingqi looked at Zhou Jiling, Liu Fengbao, Wu Zan and Chen Hongxin, and finally stopped his eyes on Chen Hongxin, "Hong Xin, let your Sixth Army go to Fuzhou, how about reinforce the Second Army?"

Chen Hongxin, the commander of the Sixth Corps of the Southeast Fang Army, quickly stood up and said, "As for the orders of lord!"

When the strategist Tang Yan saw Zhang Mingqi arrange for the Sixth Army to go to Fuzhou, he couldn't help but nod. The First Legion and the Imperial Guard Legion of the Southeast Fang Army were both direct lines among Zhang Mingqi's direct lines and would not easily be used. The only legion commanders of the other four legions was Chen Hongxin and Zhao Lianjin, which was slightly stronger.

Zhang Mingqi said to Chen Hongxin again: "Hong Xin, Zhao Lianjin entered Fuzhou one early, and his understanding of Fuzhou and the Dongman army must be above you, so the Second and Sixth Legion should be dominated by Zhao Lianjin!"
