The Zhongguancheng army garrison, which is only more than twenty miles west of Chang'an City, has become the Sanchuan Expeditionary Army garrison, which has advanced eastward after leaving Sanguan. It is a busy scene with traffic and noisy.

In the southwest, there were continuous chariots and horses loaded with supplies transported from the newly opened Luogu Road; and they sent groups of captures to the southeast to Dachang Pass.

As the enemy they had to face, after most of the Shu troops in Gyeonggi Province were destroyed, they had already shrunk and avoided war. Therefore, this army that had almost not suffered much damage was undoubtedly at a time of high morale.

On the other hand, Geshudiqi, the leader of the life-catching team, made another contribution. Although this contribution was given to him inexplicably, the so-called "luck is also part of his ability" was not much trouble, but it attracted many envy among his fellow comrades.

After all, the Taiping Army has captured and killed all kinds of commanders in various fields over the years, and even the commanders are as many as 180. Once you see them too much, it is not very rare or rare. Despite this, after Geshu Diqi and the team's people, it was also a great bonus for credit.

The taro cakes and potato cakes fried in salted lard on the iron pan, the canned steak and fish pine, and the mixed soup of cured dried vegetables cooked from the large pot went down the throat; it was their current battle food.

Compared to Geshutiqi, who was expressionless and chewing slowly, the flag-headed king Hongfan, who was a former Shencetun camp soldier, ate happily like a big flower pig rolling in the trough.

"The head of Geshu team, although the current coach is no longer valuable, even if I touch a little bit of it in the team, it will be a credit for at least fifty acres of military land!"

After seeing that he was satisfied with the food, Wang Hongfan said with no figure or reserved face:

"As for your top skills, I'm afraid you can move on the team and add a deputy (school) lieutenant or brigade coach..."

Hearing this sentence, Geshutici's silent eyes became a little lively. At least according to the Taiping Army's example system, in addition to salary and benefits, as the military ranks were increased, there were also various direct, potential benefits and preferential treatments that extended to the wife and children.

This is also the greatest motivation and driving force for him to stand against the former court without hesitation in the Taiping Army. He also returned to his former hometown for a time, but things have changed a lot.

The ruins there have been regained a lot of people, growing tenaciously like weeds, but they all speak the accents of all kinds of outsiders, and none of them are known to him.

As for his family's ancestral home, the homestead where he grew up here and cared for fists and horses had already been burned into white ground, and many thatched huts were built and they could not recognize their original location at all. This was the price of the endless war.

Therefore, Goshutic was also eager to end this chaotic world that left countless people with indelible pain; so that he and his wife and children could have the opportunity to return to their hometown; and continue the family's family again.

At this time, Zuo Jin heard a whistle sound again, and then it became a command that started one after another:

"The official army in Chang'an City seems to have abnormal movements, and the cruising team, the entire investigation team was dispatched to implement the Bingzi No. 15 tactical plan..."

In the Xingqing Palace in Chang'an City, as the actual ruler of the Guiyi Army, the Hexi Xingying Zhaojian, the deputy envoy of the Guiyi Army, the son-in-law and close confidant of the Minister of War Suo Xun, the former commander of the Guiyi Army's military commander Cao Rengui; Cao Yijin, who has now been appointed as the Tonghua Observation and Disposal Envoy, hurriedly took people through one palace corridor after another.

After losing many places in a row, he saw a very loose and leisurely group sitting and drinking and eating meat, or standing and talking and laughing outside a somewhat old and abandoned building. Cao Yijin couldn't help but step forward and asked loudly:

"Bi Shinu, can you be there?"

At this time, the personal soldiers who were familiar with Cao Yijin, who were all familiar with him, quickly came forward, but intentionally or unintentionally blocked him and said respectfully:

"I have met Cao Lianshuai and asked for business affairs all night. I will only take a break at dawn. Please wait a moment..."

"I have an urgent need to ask for advice. I want to share it with the adults. Go and report it quickly."

Cao Yijin said hurriedly without hesitation:

"this.."

The personal soldiers hesitated to weigh the pros and cons, but turned around and walked into the terrace.

Then, Suo Xun, who was holding a woman with a fleshy woman in Jinxiu's quilt, also reluctantly leaned up. To be honest, if he had not come to pass the gate, he might not have the chance to sleep with such a noble family woman of blood, and he would have changed people every day.

Therefore, after confirming that he could get the honors of Xia Suiyan and Fufang towns, he put aside most of his obsessions and pursuits, and began to work hard on these royal women to give birth to a descendant for himself who was enough to improve the bloodline of the family.

But since Cao Yijin suddenly came to disturb him, he had to treat Yi Er carefully. After all, the other party was not only his son-in-law, but also one of the powerful factions in the Guiyi army that was second only to the Zhang family and the powerful faction in charge of soldiers. It also represents the descendants of the naturalized Lite people from the Jiu surname Zhaowu of Hezhong as the main body.

It was also because of the alliance formed by the father-in-law and son-in-law that many of the meritorious ministers behind Gong Chao were able to wither one after another. They were able to compete with local Han clans such as the Li family, Yang family, Yin family, Zhai family, and naturalized ministries and other groups such as the Long family, and even gradually emptied the successor Zhang Huaishen in terms of military power.

Not to mention that if he wants to gain a foothold in this Longxing Land in Guanzhong in the future, and successfully control and master the two towns in northern Beijing; he will also be able to support each other and support from the Cao family; so he just quickly put on a light robe and greeted him.

Seeing Cao Yijin frowned, Suo Xun couldn't help but ask:

"Why is my son..."

"Sir, I just got the news and rushed to Jinchangfang and Chiayifang; the local camps are all gone."

Cao Yijun couldn't wait to snatch the voice:

"What!!"

Suo Xun couldn't help but change his color and said: he suddenly understood the pros and cons. Jinchangfang is the garrison of Li Mingzhen's army under the Guiyi Army, and Chiayifang is the garrison of Li Mingda's army.

After a whole winter of battle, the Western Army, as the main force of the king, suffered great losses; especially those subordinate vassals and the tribes who were in charge of the expedition; due to the lack of timely supplementation of food and clothing and medicine, the non-combat reduction in personnel outside the expedition caused even greater losses than the war.

Therefore, among the three Uighur cavalrymen, the Pugu clan in Xizhou, which was once the strongest in the army, and the Anxipang Special Forces Division, which had the largest household registration, were almost completely damaged and no longer restored to the old view; the remaining relatively weak Ganzhou Uighurs still had the strength to retire and could only retire to the Shayuan Supervisor to recuperate.

During this period, the Wenmao coalition, which was known as the most crowded, was almost dispersed with the formation of the central leaders of the chaotic war; while the other major force, the Khikas tribe, also died of weak cattle and horses and died of illness and were unable to fight again;

The other Ma Buyicon, the Tubo, Tuyuhun, Longjia, Khotan, Uighurs, Subi, Shanshan, Dadan and other ten-minister troops were also constantly defeated and annihilated, and severely shrank to the point where only the Three Ministers troops remained, and they still had the combat effectiveness of established areas.

Although the strength was preserved because of the early push into Chang'an, the relative core Guiyi Army was also damaged in a variety of injuries. Now, in addition to the division of troops outside to take over some of the troops and search for some plundering places, there are also several clusters of troops in the inner city of Chang'an City.

The first cluster of course occupied the three major areas in the north of the city, directly affiliated with the Shuofang Army, Shence Army and Liangzhou; it is also the basic base of Zheng Ting, the chief general and prime minister of the camp. It is the most well-equipped and has mastered the supply of food and grass equipment.

The second is to occupy most of the east and part of the south of the city, the Guiyi army was in the town and Hexi, and the eleven states of Longyou united their children to form the main force of the Western Army; finally, the more than 10,000 Shu army was brought into the city by Wang Jian, the vanguard commander of the Sanchuan Pioneer Capital of Jiannan, to the west of the city.

In addition, some other local reconstruction and newly recruited miscellaneous troops were used as a buffer in a sense during the filling period, which constituted the current situation of the Guiyi Army, the camp army and the Shu army in the city taking turns to fight.

However, because of the defeats outside the city and the continuous battle losses that have not been sieged in the south of the city for a long time, and the lack of sufficient joint troops to supplement the troops; the 11 state regiments, which claimed to be 40,000, had to be reduced to five units due to the serious shortage, with about 10,000 troops;

Therefore, in addition to the Guiyiya soldiers, Jiezhen soldiers, Guasha gang and Six Town garrison soldiers, which were nominally controlled by Suoxun, they were the Guzang elite soldiers, Xiongwu Army, Langzhou and Hezhou garrison soldiers, which were the brothers of Li Mingzhen and Li Mingda, and they were the most powerful.

Under the offensives of the West and South China, where the peace thieves are now making a comeback, the Guiyi Army, as an important part of the three-legged official army in the city, suddenly lacks a large piece of troops such as more than 10,000 people from the Second Li army, which is probably going to have a catastrophic chain reaction.

Suo Xun, who was covered in cold sweat, couldn't help but shout:

"After my order, I will contact the rest of the city's garrisons to confirm all the people in the camp..."

Soon afterwards, messengers of all kinds rushed to report loudly:

"The big thing is wrong. Suzhou Longshi Yi has opened from the Tonghua Gate of the Tonghua Gate."

"Reported that Yang Shiyi broke into the village of Minzhou Tuanlian and opened the Chunming Gate..."

"Reported that the Yizhou Gaojinda tribe of Fanglinmen has begun to leave Beiyuan..."

"Reported that Guo Yuanzhong's troops near Jingyao Gate had some abnormal movements..."

"Reported that Danei dispatched the Liangzhou army and began to intercept Wang Jingyi's horse team..."

At this moment, Suo Xun could only sit on the ground with numb hands and feet and cold body, but for a moment he started to speak with a crooked face. Instead, Cao Yijin shouted sternly:
Chapter completed!
