Liu Shaoye walked into Liu Ruyan's tent with a gloomy face.

"What's wrong? Judging from your appearance, there seems to be no good news?" Liu Ruyan raised her head and looked at the intelligence leader of the inner guard and asked with a smile.

"General, one of us who just escaped from the city, Liu Xinda carried out another large-scale cleaning in Ezhou City. This time it was an indiscriminate indiscriminate blow. Unfortunately, he had already decided to become the two big families in our inner circle and were all cleaned up." Liu Xinda was in a bad mood.

Under his planning, these two families have always been respectful to Liu Xinda, asking for money and people. He asked for it, but he did not reveal any flaws. In theory, this should not be the result.

But sometimes, the so-called random punches kill the master, really makes sense. When you encounter such an unreasonable guy, you will take down all the possibilities and kill them all.

Liu Ruyan put down the pen in his hand and smiled and said, "Liu Xinda knows that his death is approaching, so he is desperate. What about fish in the dry pond and killing chickens to retrieve eggs is not a problem for him now. I think he must have liked the wealth of these families? The only thing he can inspire morale now is the only beauty of wealth, and these people are guilty of possessing a treasure. Liu Xinda wants their money, and it will be like before, so how can he get it clean at once?"

"It should be the reason!" Liu Xinda said: "The escaped people said that Liu Xinda confiscated all the family wealth of these people, killed all the men, and used all the women as camp prostitutes. Now Ezhou City has completely become a pure military fortress. Everyone has been organized into battalions, and even the elderly, weak, women and children have allocated things, such as polishing stone bullets, making military rations, etc., to exchange labor for some food for life."

"Does there be a lot of food in Ezhou City?"

"Since Cao Bin was surrounded, Liu Xinda was making preparations. The entire E Yue was almost robbed by him." Liu Shaoye said: "Just as for the grain storage, I am afraid that the soldiers will not be hungry even if they hold on for a year. Of course, ordinary people are not sure."

"Liu Xinda is an experienced veteran, extremely cunning and difficult to deal with." Liu Ruyan took a breath, "But no matter what, everyone still has to see the truth on the battlefield. So what if he has enough food to store? Then he must withstand our attack."

"Ezhou City is not easy to fight!" Liu Shaoye said. "And what Liu Santong said is not credible."

Liu Ruyan laughed: "I think so too. Do people like Liu Xinda really have nostalgia? They know that Liu Santong doesn't want to follow them anymore, but they still release him so generously? If I had a good guess, the things that Liu Santong saw would probably have become traps now."

"It's very likely!" Liu Shaoye said: "General, what should I do now?"

"What else can I do? Fight!" Liu Ruyan smiled and said, "Zhu Youzhen is my defeated general. If he can conquer Ezhou, I can't do it? I am still very confident about the combat effectiveness of our army."

After sweeping Liangzhe, the Tang Dynasty's army in the south carried out a large-scale reorganization. With Liu Ruyan's Right Qianniu Guard as the main body, the Yangzhou army, Liangzhe army, Huainan army and Xuanzhou army were all reorganized into the Right Qianniu Guard. After several months of the weak and poor, they were reorganized into an army of 30,000 people.

The head of the Right Qianniu Guard General Liu Ruyan, the former Xuanzhou Observer Yang Mi was the chief of the army, and the former Huainan Jiedu Gong Yunda was the army. The entire Right Qianniu Guard also divided the left, center and right armies, Li Mi was the central army's capital Yuhou, Li Gan was the capital Yuhou, and Ren Xiaonian was the capital Yuhou of the Left Army.

The three Du Yuhou each led 6,000 troops, Liu Ruyan personally led 8,000 troops, and the remaining 4,000 troops were the rear camp, led by the commander of the marching commander Yang Mi, who was responsible for supervising the transportation of food and grass, ensuring local public security, and maintaining smooth roads.

In order to attack Ezhou this time, Liu Ruyan also mobilized 50,000 civil servants, who were led by Gong Yunda, the marching army. Because these 50,000 civil servants basically came from Huainan.

To be precise, this time, the war work was handled by Liu Ruyan and the three Duyuhous, while the back battalion and the civilians were responsible for the logistics support of the entire army. Of course, when necessary, the back battalion 4,000 people could also join the battle as supplementary soldiers.

Since the Tang army had completely occupied Gunhai and Wuning, the two places had completely opened up the passage connecting the north, so that the material supply in the north would no longer rely solely on the sea. After the reorganization, the armed forces of the Right Qianniu Guard were completely replaced. Compared with before the reorganization, this army had at least reached a step in equipment.

This is also the reason why Liu Ruyan is full of confidence.

Although Liu Xinda has been in Ezhou for a long time, the Tang army is not comparable to Zhu Youzhen, who attacked Ezhou at the time.

In July, the weather was already extremely hot. Although the military tent was large, it was not insulated. The sunlight shone on it and soon penetrated the heat into the tent. The people sitting there were helmets and armors. Although they were sweating, they still sat upright.

Yang Mi and Gong Yunda sat on both sides of Liu Ruyan. They were not wearing armor, but were just wearing regular clothes, but were still sweating.

"The general attack on the pseudo-liang is about to begin. While we are starting to attack Ezhou, General You Yong's left guard attacked Zhongwu army, General Liu Chenglin's right guard attacked Xuanwu area, General Tian Ping's right guard attacked Bianzhou directly, General Shi Zhuang's right guard attacked Heyang, General Tu Lichun's left guard attacked Shanzhou, General Wang Sili's left guard attacked Tongzhou." Liu Ruyan's eyes slowly swept over the generals in the account. Except for the left army's capital, Li Gan, Li Gan, now heading towards Yingcheng, preparing to pull out this nail and completely cut off the retreat route of Liu Xinda's troops in Ezhou City, the remaining generals gathered here.

"This is the largest military use of the Tang Dynasty since Li Xiang rebuilt the Tang Dynasty's center in Wuyi." Liu Ruyan continued: "In fact, the other guards and horses have entered the first-level combat readiness at this moment, and they have their own military affairs. This is a national war, which completely destroyed the pseudo-liang, recovered Chang'an, and unified the Tang Dynasty again, but in this battle."

Looking at the awesome expressions of everyone, Liu Ruyan smiled and said, "Of course, the fake Liang is already at the end of his strength and must not be our opponent. However, the lions need to do their best to fight the rabbit. The dogs will jump over the wall even if they are in a hurry. What's more, the fake Liang still has strength now. Although the result has been destined, the process is not as smooth as we thought."

"A little Ezhou will definitely be able to fight in one battle. General, please be the vanguard!" Ren Xiaonian stood up suddenly and clasped his fists.

Liu Ruyan smiled and signaled Ren Xiaonian to sit down: "This time our army launched a full-scale attack on the pseudo-liang, but also a time to test the combat effectiveness of our guards. Everyone, compared with other guards, the soldiers and horses of our Right Qianniu Guard here have been formed soon. Compared with those guards who have been busy for many years, it is not as good as me to say deflated words. We don't need to hide this."

Looking at Li Mi, Ren Xiaonian and others under the tent, Liu Ruyan smiled and said, "Of course, our opponents should be weaker. Therefore, in this battle, everyone is still standing at the same starting point. I hope everyone will not lose the majesty of the Right Qianniu Guard."

"General, our right Qianniu Guard must be the first army to complete this military service." Li Mi stood up and said, "We can also support General You after taking Ezhou. Li Mi please be the vanguard and take the lead in the right Qianniu Guard."

"General Li, you are the guardian of the Central Army. It's not your turn to fight first in this battle. Our left army will come first." Ren Xiaonian also jumped up and fought. Looking at Li Mi with a cold face, Ren Xiaonian shivered. He had heard of this eldest sister from a secret camp, and his temper was quite bad. He quickly continued: "The Central Army is the unit whose combat effectiveness of our Right Qianniu Guard is second only to the General's personal guard. How could it be that he used a killer move from the beginning? Let our left army go and test it first? Didn't the General say that Ezhou is not easy to fight? If we succeed in the battle, that's good. If not, General Li can also see the truth from it. Isn't it beautiful?"

"It seems that I want to take advantage of you?" Li Mi laughed in anger after hearing this, "Okay, let you come first, but Ren Xiaonian, the first battle is the most difficult to fight. If you lose the majesty of our army, what should I say?"

Ren Xiaonian straightened his chest and said, "General Li, Ren was also a soldier. Although he did not have the qualifications of General Li, he never took a step back on the battlefield."

"Okay!" Seeing the two Du Yuhou fighting, Liu Ruyan knocked on the table: "Ren Xiaonian's left army attacked first, but Ezhou City was high and dangerous. According to the information, Liu Xinda had 15,000 troops in the city and more than 20,000 young and strong people. Therefore, when siege, the heavy siege weapons of the Left Army and the Right Army were all gathered together to use. At one time, the enemy would be scared."

"Thank you for your accomplishment!" Ren Xiaonian was overjoyed.

"Okay, all the generals, let's prepare!" Liu Ruyan waved his hand, and with the sound of armor leaves, the tent walked completely in an instant, leaving only Liu Ruyan, Yang Mi, and Gong Yunda.
