Chapter 171

Zuojin Valley did not collapse as thoroughly as qintongguan. Both sides worked together to clear a passage in five days.

In addition to the 30000 troops left behind by the Xiyuan army and the 50000 garrison soldiers in Jingzhao mansion, Dong pan, as the general of the guest army, was also invited by the Suwei general fan Chun and the supervising envoy Wen Boyuan to lead a thousand Hexi Dao yamen soldiers to rush with the army to aid Qintong.

Dong Ning and more than 100 Hexi children also entered qintongshan with Dong pan and Wu Xiong.

Although the war they experienced in the last two months was difficult, it could not be said that it was a desperate situation of ten deaths and no life. After all, the red eyebrow sect was not willing to waste its rare elite followers on the confrontation with the Xiyuan army. Even the elite of the black scarf soldiers were sent out only a limited number of times.

However, Dong Ning and others were deeply shocked when they saw that the trenches and rifts in the north of Zuojin valley were full of dead bodies.

The camp of the Xiyuan army in the north of Zuojin Valley has been changed several times due to the confrontation between the two sides' magic powers. Even the camp has been moving in a small range, the mountains have collapsed, and a cracked gorge mountain lake with a water surface of more than 1000 mu has appeared in the north of Zuojin valley.

Everywhere, there are traces of burning flames and magma, sharp stone spikes protruding out of the earth, and occasionally there are corpses that have not been cleaned up.

There are traces of sword, halberd and awn cutting everywhere.

It's hard to imagine that Chen Hai and his lonely army can support themselves under the siege of hundreds of thousands of rebels by relying on simple camps and dozens of light combat vehicles with defense array.

Wei Yu expected to receive the Fuzhao from Taiwei's house and hand over the general's talisman. However, surrounded by more than 200 Hu Wei, before stepping down on the return trip, he only saluted Chen Haiyi to the generals who saw him off.

Wei Yuqi is a Taoist priest who has practiced for more than a hundred years. He only saluted Chen Hai, which naturally moved everyone, but we were not surprised. It was Chen Hai's northern aid and resolute defense that not only kept the foundation of the Xiyuan army intact, but also kept Wei Yuqi's world-famous Festival.

Dong Ning also stood among the people who saw Wei Yuqi off. He saw that Chen Hai was still slightly bloated, with scars crisscrossed on his face and stubble beard. When he returned the gift to Wei Yuqi, his dark amber eyes still looked resolute and iron. It was difficult to know what he was thinking in the face of the honor given to him by Wei Yuqi.

Chen Hai feels melancholy in his heart. He wants to know if Wei will still be grateful to Yingwang Yingshu when he expects to know his calculations and that he, Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong are the minions of Yingwang Yingshu's men?

Wei Yuqi drove away surrounded by Hu Wei. The Xiyuan army welcomed a new general and a military envoy who had not been set up before. It can be regarded as turning a page again.

Since Chen Hai was surrounded by the rebels and cut off contact with the outside world, Wen Boyuan and fan Chun did not know what Chen Hai had experienced in the past two months.

Wei Yuqi has shouldered the biggest responsibility. The rest is the war merit of repelling the rebels, but we also have to figure out what Chen Hai and them have experienced in the past two months, so that we can write a document and report it to the Taiwei house to reward them one by one.

Wen Boyuan and fan Chun also need to further clarify the combat power of the Xiyuan army in Zuojin Valley, so as to formulate the next combat strategy -- Chen Hai, who have adhered to Zuojin Valley for two months, also need to rest, and they are unable to pursue the rebels in a short time.

When Zuojin valley was blocked to avoid retreat and show the determination to die, the Xiyuan army and Minyong of Zuojin Valley had a total of more than 43000 soldiers. The total number of people who died and seriously disabled completely lost their combat power was more than 17000, and there were more than 25000 left, which were under the command of Chen Hai, Tu Chongjin and Yao Qitai.

Chen Hai's headquarters undertook the most arduous and dangerous task of counterattack out of the camp, and the damage was the heaviest, but the combat power was still the strongest, with 14000 fierce soldiers left.

Tu Chongjin integrated Minyong and the previous fleeing disabled soldiers. In addition, there were 9000 soldiers who fled with him from qintongguan. In the past two months, although the war was difficult, Minyong and the disabled soldiers have completed the integration. After a period of rest, I believe they will also be a division of tigers and wolves.

Yao Qitai, Hua Zhedong, Churong and other generals who escaped from Leiyang valley were reorganized. At first, they had to incorporate 5000 disabled soldiers. At this time, there were about 2000 left.

"Although the Xiyuan army was defeated by Leiyang Valley, it was not clear that the guards expected to observe the enemy. The Xiyuan army had been trained for one year, and its combat effectiveness had been tested. His Royal Highness the king intended to advise the Taiwei house to officially establish three battalions in the Xiyuan army, and also intended to incorporate the 50000 garrison troops of Jingzhao house into the three battalions, so as to ensure the smooth progress of the follow-up war, eliminate the chaos between Qin and Tongmin as soon as possible and share the worries of the country."

Sanqi often attends Wen Boyuan with a sharp voice. He sits at the head of fan Chun in the big tent, but everyone knows that he is the real spokesman of Ying Wang Yingshu,

"Although Chen haixiuwei is a little weaker, he has made great achievements in the war. He is in charge of the first battalion with the rank of captain of both vehicles and horses. I believe there will be no doubt among the generals. Tu Chongjin has committed crimes and meritorious deeds, but how far he will restore his functions still needs to be decided by the imperial palace. The second battalion can only be said to be controlled by him temporarily. Yao Qitai, you will hand over all the soldiers of the 2000 remnant troops to Tu Chongjin, while the former Xiyuan The fifth, eighth and ninth generals of the army have all put their soldiers into the Third Battalion. In addition to serving as the commander of the army, you also take charge of the Third Battalion. All the generals such as Churong and Hua Zhedong are put into the Third Battalion for your control. What do you think? If everyone has no opinion, we will report it to the Taiwei mansion... "

Yao Qitai has no opinion that he can take charge of the Third Battalion, but he prefers to incorporate the two thousand fierce soldiers into the third battalion as his lineage rather than give them to Tu Chongjin.

These two thousand soldiers are not bad, and have experienced the test of bloody war. Although the number is less, it can be said that they all have the foundation of the tiger and wolf division. Yao Qitai naturally does not want to hand them over.

However, Wen Boyuan's arrangement made it difficult for him to refute. After all, the second battalion temporarily controlled by Tu Chongjin was the weakest and needed to be strengthened; In the Third Battalion, the former fifth, eighth and ninth all incorporated the soldiers, which can be said to be the most powerful in theory.

This time, the Taiwei mansion responded very quickly. The article presented by Wei Boyuan soon passed the resolution. Seven days later, the Taiwei mansion sent envoys to Tongbei and read out the imperial decree on the reorganization of the Xiyuan army. The 50000 garrison troops of Jingzhao mansion were officially incorporated into the Xiyuan army.

Now the red eyebrow sect has frequently caused civil unrest everywhere. Half of the elite Huben army have been transferred out of Beijing to fight, but the war is not smooth -- the Xiyuan army has made a good record in curbing civil unrest in qintongshan.

In the recent year, in the frequent civil unrest in various counties, the strength displayed by the red eyebrow sect was somewhat amazing. The big families in Jingjun realized the serious threat of the red eyebrow sect, and the imperial power contradiction between Prince Yingdan and Emperor Yitian was slightly alleviated.

The decision-making efficiency of the officials of chaotang and Taiwei mansion has been improved accordingly. Especially when the sphere of influence of the eight ethnic groups in Jingjun is threatened and their interests are damaged, the quarrel has been significantly reduced.

Chen Hai and his side's War Merit rewards and punishments were also promulgated at the same time. Wei Yuqi assumed all the responsibilities for the crimes and went to the Marquis of the township. Temporarily, he served in yanxuan palace where Prince Yingdan lived as a casual cavalry and regular attendant.

Chen Hai was awarded general Suwei with his first merit and took charge of the first battalion of Xiyuan army.

In the past few decades, in addition to the legitimate children of the imperial clan, only a dozen people with different surnames who can officially become generals by cultivating in the spirit realm, and they all have empty titles.

In addition, Chen Hai was given a Jiaosui pill, a Xuanji inferior wolf cutting sword, a Xuanji inferior fire cloud armor, a xuanlang war chariot and four Royal chariot black cunning horses.

In addition, the Taiwei mansion also gives 100 green cunning horses, 100 sets of quenched gold halberds, 100 sets of quenched gold armor and 100 Tongmai pills to Chen Hai, who has made brilliant military achievements.

Such rewards can be said to be extremely thick. Tu Ziji, Zhao rongnai, Yao Qitai and other generals received slightly more rewards than him, but Chen Hai knew that behind this was the credit of Ying Wang Yingshu.

Of course, this is conditional.

For example, the 20000 garrison Duwei of Jingzhao mansion, which is incorporated into the first battalion, is Zhao Wutai, the left division army of Jingzhao mansion.

Zhao Wutai was a strong man in the late Ming Dynasty. This time, he was officially incorporated into the Xiyuan army with the rank of captain of both chariots and horses. As the direct line of King Yingshu, he joined the first battalion with Chen Hai's deputy. Chen Hai should ensure that Zhao Wutai can really grasp the military power and can't overhead his superfluous actions.

As a disciple of taiweizong in Hexi, Chen Hai is always a guest general compared with the Zong valve children of the eight nationalities in Jingjun.

Of course, Chen Hai would not have any unreasonable thoughts at this time. He even called back more than 100 attendants such as GE Tong, Ding Shuang and Zhou Jingyuan from Tu Chongjin's account. No matter what deals and secret agreements Tu Chongjin and Tu's family have with King Ying behind the scenes, he will not reach out to infiltrate the military power of the second battalion.

Cao Feng, Cao Shan and his son finally decided to return to Chen Hai.

Although Tu's family is a thick thigh worth holding, when Cao Feng and Cao Shan found that Tu's family was really willing to help Tu Chongjin take charge of the second largest battalion, there were too many elite children and departments to call, and there were dozens of people to cultivate martial arts in the spirit setting.

Even if Tu Chongjin treats his father well, his father and son will not have any status in front of Tu Chongjin's account in the future. Their father and son's foundation is still too poor, let alone occupy a place in the Tu family.

Minyong suffered heavy casualties. Cao Feng and Cao Shan brought more than ten close people to Chen Hai, that is, to hand over the remaining 3000 Minyong to Tu Chongjin.

Chen Hai was promoted to general Suwei. The Huwei camp can be expanded to 200 people, but he still asked Ge Tong, Zhou Jingyuan, Cao Feng and Cao Shan to return to Taohua dock with nearly 100 Huwei and more than 200 craftsmen and craftsmen who were abolished from the baggage camp

The roads between Tongbei mansion and Gyeonggi have been opened up. Even if the Xiyuan army needs any war equipment, it can be manufactured in the foundry of Taohuawu and then transported -- it will no longer be free supply at that time. Everything must be negotiated with the Xiyuan army manager mansion first.

Chen Hai thought that he might hand over all his military power one day. At present, it is also what he wants to do to run the Taohua stronghold well and ensure the increasing influence of the Marquis house of Zhaoyang Pavilion in Yanjing.
