Pei Renji, the ambassador of Henan to arrest, actually rebeled and surrendered to the enemy at the last moment, almost cheating the main army of Henan to arrest the army. The news spread and the sensation caused by such a sensation was of course as big as possible. After receiving a report from Chen Sangliang to send 500 miles, the Dongdu court headed by Yang Tong was that he could not believe it at all. He also received a report that Pei Xingyan, the son of Pei Renji, was guilty and fled. The Dongdu court woke up as soon as he dreamed, and quickly mobilized the army and organized troops to reinforce the Luokoucang battlefield according to Chen Sangliang's request.

As mentioned earlier, after obtaining the consent of Emperor Yang of Sui, the scale of the Dongdu army had expanded to 100,000, and military supplies such as food, grass, weapons, etc. were also very sufficient. However, due to insufficient training and lack of practical experience, the combat effectiveness was very affected. In addition, there were too many important facilities in the Dongdu area that needed guards. When the Dongdu army lost the buffer against the Henan Investigation Army, the two competent deputy left-behind Yuan Wen and Duan Da, after discussion, took the initiative to suggest Yang Tong request Emperor Yang of Sui to expand the army again. At the same time, it was recommended that before Emperor Yang of Sui, a temporary army was summoned to strengthen the troops to prevent any problems.

Yang Tong agreed without hesitation to the suggestion of Yuan Wendu and Duan Da. He reported to Emperor Yang of Sui that Pei Renji's rebellion and requested to allow the expansion of the army again. In addition, he issued a Jun order to form the Dongdu Volunteer Army, calling on the Dongdu people to join the army to serve the country, reinforce Luokou Cang, and regain Hulao Pass to ensure the safety of the Dongdu important area.

Yang Tong and Yuan Wen both did bad things with Duan Da's kindness, believing that the Wagang Army was just a group of thieves forced by hunger, and knew that the war god Chen Sangliang, who had never defeated, was the war god who was commanding the army in Luokoucang. He felt that military merits and titles were available. In order to make achievements and get promoted, there were many second-generation officials and second-generation rich people in the Dongdu City who were more enthusiastic than ordinary people. Countless students from the Imperial College, Imperial College and Four Schools, as well as countless children of powerful officials, descendants of noble families, and sons of wealthy and wealthy businesses, all rushed to respond to Yang Tong's call, rushing to join the army with their servants and servants, and voluntarily going to the front line of Luokoucang to go to the battle to kill the enemy.

When Chen Sangliang received the news that he vomited blood, he wanted to object. With no choice, Chen Sangliang had to quickly send General Liu Changgong, who had a strong family background, to return to Dongdu to preside over the eastward reinforcements. At the same time, Chen Sangliang secretly told Liu Changgong to identify the team, and to form a separate army of these second-generation officials, rich second-generation officials and their servants and servants, to form a second-generation army that would definitely not be used, so that they could get together and do whatever they wanted, so as not to disperse the real army that could fight or have potential.

On the third day of Pei Renji's rebellion, 15,000 reinforcements led by Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda first rushed to the Luokoucang battlefield to reinforce. Chen Sangliang's old direct descendants were also arrived in the same group. Unfortunately, Pei Xingyan had become the first deserter of the National Army, and Chen Sangliang had to appoint his flag bearer Yu Le, who was the former captain, as the captain.

Before this, the main force of the Wagang Army bullied Chen Sangliang and had not yet established a foothold in Luokoucang. He bullied the commander of the Henan Army to rebel and the unstable morale. He once launched a head-on attack on Luokoucang, but unfortunately he was hit by the army of Kan and Ma Sanbao. He was killed and retreated even if he failed to rush up the wall several times. He also found the notorious service army and a large number of Dongdu troops to help. The main force of the Wagang Army could only obediently retreat under Hulao Pass, and fought against Chen Sangliang who was constantly rushing to the reinforcements, retreating a little, but still grasped the tactical initiative of the entire Dongdu battlefield.

It can be guaranteed that friends are not wrong. The 184th volume of "Zizhi Tongjian" clearly records that in the 13th year of Daye, Emperor Yang of Sui did issue such an edict. Although this edict was simply a sign of water coming into the head for Emperor Yang of Sui himself, this edict does exist.

He pinched his thighs and proved that he was not dreaming. Chen Sangliang, who was actually supervising Luokou Cang, did not hesitate anymore, and immediately opened Luokou Cang, took out 300,000 stones of grain one by one, sent people to the affected counties in Henan County, and ordered the officials of the county to open porridge factories to provide porridge to help the poor people suffering from floods and hunger. Then the next day, Chen Sangliang couldn't wait to go outside the neighboring Gong County town to inspect the specific situation of porridge and relief.

The result of the personal inspection made Chen Sangliang furious. Several porridge factories outside Gong County were indeed surrounded by poor people with pale and thin faces, but what they received in the wind and rain was gray-yellow rice soup that could make people shine. At the same time, Chen Sangliang's personal soldiers also found countless grain bags that had not even been removed from the home of the Gong County official yamen runner who was sending relief. In a furious manner, Chen Sangliang of course immediately asked someone to arrest the county magistrate Chai Xiaohe and asked him in public why he deducted the food for disaster relief?

Chai Xiaohe, who was quite talented, shouted for justice and took the initiative to beg Chen Sangliang to search his house and check his accounts, saying that if he only embezzled one grain of disaster relief grain, Chen Sangliang asked Chen Sangliang to chop off his whole family and the people who received relief were also stood up to make evidence, saying that as long as Chai Xiaohe appeared, they could drink thick white rice porridge. As soon as Chai Xiaohe left, the rice porridge would immediately turn into rice soup. Chen Sangliang's anger was slightly relieved. While ordering Chai Xiaohe to strengthen supervision, he ordered more than 20 servants who embezzled disaster relief grain to beheaded in public, and also cut off Gongxian County Magistrate who informed various porridge factories. Chai Xiaohe also took the initiative to ask Chen Sangliang to send troops to supervise the relief to avoid similar situations again.

"Prince, administration." Chen Sangliang patted his forehead and lamented, and suddenly remembered something bigger, and quickly ordered Wei Zheng next to him: "Xuancheng, arrange some people to go to the affected counties to check the situation, and then draw a memorial for me, asking His Highness the King of Yue to send the censors to the counties to supervise the release of relief."

Wei Zheng agreed and immediately followed the order. Chai Xiaohe, who had not yet retreated, smiled bitterly and said, "Chen Liushou, the official dares to make a bet with you. If the relief situation in other counties can be better than Gong County, the official is willing to apologize for his death."

Chen Yingliang quickly turned his head to look at Chai Xiaohe. Seeing that his smile was bitter but his expression was very serious, Chen Sangliang was silent at once. After a while, he said to himself: "I hope there are a few officials like you in Li Yangcang, so that some food can be kept in the hands of the victims, otherwise..."

After saying that, Chen Sangliang sighed and shook his head, not making this bet with Chai Xiaohe.

Just like Chen Sangliang expected, and as in history, Emperor Yang of Sui's relief edict, which had been flooded with water, did not save the great Sui Dynasty. In the case of severe floods and starvation, the food price naturally rose to no longer. Emperor Yang of Sui's edict, which seemed to be able to save himself, also became a god-given opportunity for officials from all over the disaster to make a fortune. Chen Sangliang, who was in the Eastern Capital Luokou Cang, stared firmly, and the situation was slightly better. The Li Yang Cang was completely finished. Officials of all sizes were only concerned about making money by themselves, and no grain was given to the victims. The number of victims was starved to death every day. The number of hungry corpses near Li Yang Cang was even more everywhere, and the number of corpses could not be cleaned up.

Under such circumstances, it was naturally given a great opportunity for those who were interested. On April 23, the Pushan Public Camp, which had grown 30,000 again, led by Li Mi himself, suddenly crossed the Yellow River from Yanjin to the north, and then immediately went west to attack Liyang Cang. On the way, he shouted the slogan of opening the warehouse for the Liyang Cang to provide relief, attracting tens of thousands of victims and hungry people to join his team. After only more than a day, Li Mi fought under the Liyang Cang. After a great battle, Li Mi successfully seized the largest granary north of the Yellow River, and fulfilled his promise to open the warehouse and release the relief immediately, and open the granary and let the hungry people get the grain. Then, naturally, in just two days, Li Mi gathered more than 100,000 refugees and successfully defeated Yuan Baozang, the Wuyang County Chief, who had come to fight to the attack. Yuan Baozang, who had already been cute and rebellious, directly led his army to surrender Li Mi, and Li Mi's momentum was unparalleled.

At the same time, Chen Sangliang also looked forward to the long-awaited decree of Emperor Yang of Sui. In addition to ordering the Dongdu court to kill Jia Runfu and Xiao Huaijing, who were treasonable to kill the chariot of Jia Runfu and Xiao Huaijing, who were eager to regain the Hulao Pass and open the Tongji Canal again, Emperor Yang of Sui was very smart. He agreed to send Wang Shichong, the remaining troops in Pengcheng, to lead his army north to reinforce the Hulao Pass battlefield, accept Chen Sangliang's orders and commands, and jointly attack Hulao Pass to regain this deadly throat. He also strives to annihilate the main force of the Wagang Army on the Hulao Pass battlefield, and also lit the heads of Pei Renji and his son.

After receiving this order, Chen Sangliang finally breathed a sigh of relief and regained the confidence of defeating Zhai Rang in Hulao Pass. Yuan Tiangang immediately suggested to Chen Sangliang: "Be at your disposal, you might as well spread this news immediately so that the Wagang thieves know that the Wagang thieves do not do production, and the supply of food and grass is all robbery. It has been two and a half months since occupying the Hulao Pass. Even if the Wagang thieves still have some food and grass savings, they will definitely not be much. When the Wagang thieves know that Wang Shichong is coming to aid, they will definitely have the intention to abandon the pass and leave. If our army sends troops to attack the city again, the pressure will be greatly reduced."

"If it were normal, this is a good idea, but it won't work now." Chen Sangliang shook his head and tapped Li Yangcang on the map with his fingers and said, "You forgot Li Mi. The Li Yangcang he is entrenched now is only more than 200 miles away from Hulao Pass. If Zhai Rang learned that Wang Shichong was coming from behind, he would probably have the intention of asking for help from Li Mi. Li Mi would also likely send troops to rescue him. At that time, Zhai Rang and Li Mi worked together, and our troubles might be greater."

"Zhai Rang asked Li Mi for help?" Yuan Tiangang was stunned and said in surprise: "How is this possible? Li Mi was driven away by Zhai Rang last time, and the two thieves had already turned against each other. How could they join forces again?"

"Zhai Rang turned against Li Mi last time because of my plan." Chen Sangliang replied: "Pei Renji knew that my plan of separation was going through. Now he has surrendered to the Wagang thief. He must have reported what happened to Zhai Rang. Even if Zhai Rang refused to speak for his face, he would definitely be extremely regretful. If he had the intention to join forces with Li Mi again, now Li Mi has taken over Li Yang Cang again. With more soldiers and enough food, Zhai Rang, who has no logistics supply, certainly wants to join forces with him again.

"Li Mi's traitors are also very likely to be willing to join forces with Zhai Rang again." Chen Sangliang continued: "The grain reserves of Li Yang Cang are less than one-quarter of Luokou Cang, and it is impossible for Li Mi to satisfy Li Mi's appetite. If you occupy Hulao Pass, you can attack Luokou Cang at any time and take the initiative in the Dongdu battlefield. It is unlikely that Li Mi will sit back and take the lead in taking back Hulao Pass."

"So, now we can't spread the news that Wang Shichong is coming to aid to intimidate the Wagang thieves, but we have to show that the enemy is weak, so that the Wagang thieves feel that their strength is enough to seize Luokou Cang, and Zhai Rang refuses to contact Li Mi immediately for face. In this way, when the Wagang thieves find out the news that Wang Shichong is coming from behind, even if they send people to ask for help from Li Mi immediately, Li Mi will send troops to reinforce. Time will inevitably be very hasty, and flaws will be revealed. My father-in-law, Wang Shichong, is not a good person. As long as Li Mi reveals flaws, he can usually catch them."

After hearing Chen Sangliang's explanation, Yuan Tiangang nodded repeatedly, and then Yuan Tiangang suddenly woke up and asked, "We had just received the news of the fall of Li Yangcang. If you immediately transfer Liu Changgong's Invincible Camp to the east bank of the Shizi River to establish a camp. Did Chen Liushou have the idea of ​​showing the enemy as a false witness?"

Chen Sangliang smiled, nodded, and said, "Although I haven't confirmed whether Wang Shichong could come to help us at that time, I have to be careful that Your Majesty disagrees with Wang Shichong's reinforcement of the Hulao Pass battlefield and let the Invincible Camp establish a camp on the east bank of the Shizi River. This can not only show the enemy's weakness, but maybe it can also lead the Wagang thieves out of the Pass. The Wagang thieves are a little afraid of me, but after seeing our Invincible Camp, they will definitely not be so scared."

Yuan Tiangang laughed loudly and said, "Yes, it's like the Invincible Camp. Even if the officials are just civil servants, they will definitely have the courage to lead the army to fight in person, and they will definitely dare to lead the army and rush to the front."

Chen Sangliang was also a little laughed, but it was a coincidence that something happened. At this moment, the scout rushed to report that it was the Wagang thief who suddenly sent troops and was coming to Luokoucang. Chen Yingliang was overjoyed when he heard this. He knew that Zhai Rang was finally unable to hold on to the verge and fight. He immediately ordered the army to strictly guard the Luoshui and Shizihe floating bridges, and ordered Liu Changgong not to attack, and to defend the camp with all his strength, allowing the Wagang army to attack his invincible camp.

Oh, by the way, let me explain the origin of the name Invincible Camp. According to Chen Sangliang's request, Liu Changgong organized the second generation of rich second generation officials in Dongdu into an army, and formed an army of about 8,000 people, equipped the best armor and weapons provided by the second generation of rich second generation officials, and wore the most gorgeous clothes, shoes and socks. He did not have to train as hard as ordinary soldiers. There were also rumors that there were beauties in the army, but these second generation of rich second generation officials were still unsatisfied and insisted on having a separate military name like serving the country. Liu Changgong was entangled by them, so he had to come to Chen Sangliang to solve the problem. Chen Sangliang personally splashed ink and wrote the name Invincible Camp out of the air.
