Chapter 796: Both the north and the south of the great river will be pacified and the poor bandits will be pursued
"Too fast! Too fast!"
Still in the same meeting hall, Wang Weixing looked at the people in front of him and repeated this word repeatedly. Looking at the people in front of him, his eyes lost some of their energy.
Because things developed so fast that he couldn't even react.
As soon as the enemy here said it had the chance to attack, the troops on the front line over there were defeated. They immediately called in manpower to support them, but as a result, another group of soldiers and horses were defeated.
When the Vietnamese coalition forces were pulled up, they were also defeated before they had even taken a few steps.
In the end, Wang Weixing and others were surrounded in the city.
People outside had begun to shout for surrender, but little did they know that the people inside the city had not yet come to their senses.
In this chaotic situation, someone finally mentioned what Li Yu said when he arrived a few days ago.
"Then Li Huai is really cruel, why not surrender?"
"If you surrender, if you didn't surrender at first and surrender now, didn't you listen to what Li Yu said? Surrendering in the past will not end well!"
"How about that? What do you think?"
…
Listening to everyone arguing about this, Wang Weixing's thoughts finally disappeared. He waved his hand and said: "Go and invite Li Yu over, we will surrender!"
Although everything happened too fast and they haven't fully understood it yet, one thing is still very clear, that is, the opponent is indeed invincible!
"What kind of person is that Huangfu Huai and Li Huai? It's really unbelievable."
As a result, the people sent out soon came back with bad news: "The chief of the Zheng clan has secretly released Li Yu and covered him out of the city. Their people also opened the North City. Now the north
Soldiers and horses have already invaded!"
"Ah! How can this be done!"
Suddenly, everyone was in chaos.
Wang Weixing's face turned pale and he collapsed on the chair. How could he not know that he was not surrendering now, and the outcome would definitely be different!
only……
"Last time, I said that I wanted to talk to Sun Ban City, stop fighting temporarily, and deal with the situation separately, but someone secretly caused trouble and even killed Sun Ban City's envoy. But this time, I took the initiative to let him go.
Still have to surrender, alas..."
Sighing, he knew that the situation was over. He originally thought of killing himself before the mansion was captured, but before he could do anything, he had several "loyal" men tied up and sacrificed to the attacking general.
"It saves trouble now."
The leader of the army was Cui Min. When he saw Wang Weixing, he laughed and said, "My lord, don't worry. Although you are a little slow to surrender and not as good as your subordinates, you still have the intention. My lord will definitely do it."
Be magnanimous, otherwise I will kill you, others may be interested in staying, and others will follow your example in the future."
Wang Weixing's face was filled with shame.
Cui Min ignored him and ordered: "Place it well and send it to the north. We can catch up with a conference in a few days."
When Wang Weixing was suppressed, Cui Min summoned the civil and military staff here to understand the geography and humanities of each place, because this time he also had another task, which was to briefly sort out the Vietnam area and recruit some people.

"I heard that my lord is about to train a second army of personal guards. I don't know how many people will be this time. The three thousand people before were completely rampant in the south. However, the population in the south is not large. If we want to fight for hegemony in the Central Plains in the future, we will still need it.
More manpower.”
He didn't have an answer to this question for the time being.
But Wang Weixing was escorted north, and along the way he saw the personal iron army that Li Huai had cultivated with his luck, and he became more and more in awe of the general who he had not yet met.
And when he arrived at Jianye City, he immediately got the news and couldn't help but be horrified——
"Xuzhou was also captured? Then Chen Tao was killed by the formation? The rest of his troops fled to Qingzhou and are now being pursued?"
Although it was unbelievable to hear this news, Wang Weixing didn't dare not believe it. After all, he himself was a warning, but just like this...
"Jingzhou, Yangzhou, Xuzhou, and Qingzhou, which is being conquered, almost the entire southeast has fallen into the hands of the general. Even the south has been unified, and there is still a Shu region.
How long did it take before and after?”
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he became vaguely aware of a possibility.
"Could this be the one who wants to make things happen?"
At this thought, Wang Weixing's entire thought suddenly changed. His original little thoughts were completely extinguished, and he turned to focus on the movements of the Li family general.
So, after several twists and turns, he finally met Li Yu again and asked, "I wonder what the general is going to do with me?"
Li Yu said, "This matter will have to wait until the general returns from the north."
Wang Weixing asked doubtfully: "You want to come back from the north? Hasn't the war in Xuzhou subsided?"
Li Yu smiled and said: "Chen Tao originally occupied Qingzhou, Xuzhou and the north of Yanzhou. Now although Xuzhou has been pacified, there are still sporadic chaos in Qingzhou, and Yanzhou was taken advantage of by Sima Ye, who wanted to take away my lord.
The purpose of leading the pursuit this time is to completely seize the territory led by Chen Tao so that it can be easily managed in the future."
A few days later, Wang Weixing received news that Sima Ye had arranged troops in Qingzhou to ambush Li Huai who was heading north. Not only did he fail to succeed, but he was defeated by an army of tens of thousands, and he lost many troops and generals. He himself was seriously injured on the battlefield.
, and became bedridden after returning.
I originally thought it was a bit exaggerated, but as more and more news came in, Wang Weixing had to believe it, because the south of Yanzhou was gradually controlled by Li Huai's troops, and even part of the border of Yuzhou was
Start sending officials over!
This means that Sima Ye has indeed shrunk his troops, shrunk his own power, and withdrawn from some marginal areas in an orderly manner.
"Sima Ye is a smart man, otherwise he would not choose to ambush me in Qingzhou."
In Pengcheng, the capital of Xuzhou, Li Huai summoned several of his generals to make the next plan.
But his opening remarks made all his generals complain.
"Then Sima Ye is so shameless! He went to war without declaring it!"
"Yes, it's a pity that his cleverness was misled by his cleverness. He now deserves to lose his troops and generals!"
"Lord, we should seize the opportunity to pursue the victory and pull out that Sima Ye as well. In this way, the overall situation in the north and south will be settled!"
…
For a moment, the crowd was excited, and there was a bit of indignation at first, but later on, everyone's desire to fight became more and more intense, and many people even looked like they were clearly looking forward to a fight right away.
There is no doubt that Sima Ye's sudden sneak attack is tantamount to giving the excuse. The military group that Li Huai put together in a short time really had no excuse to attack Sima Ye's territory, and even attacked rashly, even if Li Huai was really
Descendants of the previous dynasty, but this is the Zhou Dynasty after all, and everyone in the world is more or less accustomed to the changes in orthodoxy.
"This is a risky move because before this, there was no direct contact between Sima Ye and I, and it was not even considered hostility. His behavior of undeclared war seems a bit reckless, but if
It’s done, but the situation has been reversed in one fell swoop. Maybe my previous action of pacifying the north and south of the country has become a way to clear up the situation for him and lead the way for the king!"
"But he was defeated after all!" Huang Xi took the words and asked: "My lord, the situation is rare now, do you want to take advantage of the victory and pursue it?"
But Guo Bohuai said: "Now that Sima Ye has gathered his troops, he undoubtedly saw that his plan failed and fell into a dangerous situation. Therefore, he wanted to concentrate his strength to deal with the lord's attack. The more this time, the more demanding he is.
Just ask!”
Huang Xi said, "That's true, but if we defeat them head-on at this time, it will be equivalent to completely eradicating Sima Ye's thoughts and save him from having to worry about it in the future."
As several people spoke, their eyes fell on Li Huai. They knew very well that in the end, only their lord could make up his mind.
Li Huai said with a smile: "Although it is safe to avoid the edge temporarily, it is a choice when the two families are evenly matched, but the current situation is different. Sima Ye lost his troops in Qingzhou and was also seriously injured. He
The main force of the army has been seriously damaged, so I have to give up part of the territory and concentrate on dealing with it. What I want to do is to save the lost territory and recuperate in the future, so that I can regain it. Although I have gained a lot of new territory now, it is only for a short time.
There will inevitably be many rebellions next, and if there is another person who covets the situation, the situation will be complicated."
He said it for this reason, and everyone obviously understood what he meant, so they all restrained their thoughts and accepted the order with clasped fists.
