Wulao Pass.

An Jinquan's envoy passed through several checkpoints of Liang Jun along the way and finally arrived at the Wulao Pass.

"Go and report quickly. There is an emergency military information transmitted to Xiahe East Army messenger."

Yang Fuguang had already left Wulao Pass a few days ago and returned to Luoyang. At this time, the guard in the pass was Yang Shouliang, Yang Fuguang's adopted son. He heard that the messenger of the Hedong Army had reported urgently, and he threw down the chess piece in his hand and disrupted the game that was obviously about to lose. He stood up and smiled and said, "It seems that Li Keyong has cut off Zhu Wen's head and taken Bianzhou."

Several Wu Lao guards who were fighting against him did not care about Yang Shouliang's scoundrel behavior, and then smiled and said, "This black crow is still very neat in doing things. So should we send troops to Zhengzhou immediately and take down Zhengzhou in one fell swoop? This crow soldiers won't rob him of Bianzhou and Zhengzhou in a while. Zhengzhou will be said to be our King Yang in the future."

Yang Shouliang and several generals came to the front hall with a smile, but saw the Hedong envoy looking mournful, and the man was wearing mourning clothes. They were stunned and suddenly felt a bad feeling.

Sure enough, when the Hedong envoy saw Yang Shouliang, he immediately cried and knelt down, "General Yang, please send troops to Bianzhou immediately to avenge our King of Jin!"

"What happened?"

"King of Jin, King of Jin was murdered by the despicable Zhu Wen!" The envoy intermittently told the story of Shangyuan Post in Bianzhou. Now, Yang Shouliang and the others were really shocked. Damn it. Although Li Keyong is not liked by everyone, they have to admit that Li Keyong is really capable of Shatuo Hu Man. But this guy who has been defeated countless times under Li Jing and has not lost his life actually died in Bianzhou. Was he killed by Zhu Wen?

Li Keyong was going to kill Zhu Wen, and when he passed by a few days ago, he brought 20,000 elite soldiers by his side, but why did he die at Zhu Wen's hands all of a sudden? This is not right, it doesn't make sense.

But in the end they had to admit that this was the fact. Li Keyong was really dead, a generation of heroes, Shatuo King, Flying Tiger Son, Black Crow One-Eyed Dragon, King Jin, Taiwei, Hedong Jiedu, Tong Pingzhang, Taiyuan Prefecture, and Beidu, regardless of the string of titles, this was extremely fierce. Shatuo, who started to participate in the conquest of the Xuzhou Rebellion at the age of 12, became a general of the town at the age of 14, and was strong enough to rebel at the age of 18. He fought with Li Jing for almost ten years but had not been destroyed. In the end, he did not die at the hands of Li Jing, but died in the hands of Zhu Asan who had not taken seriously.

However, even at this point, they would never think that Zhu Wen was very strong, stronger than Li Keyong. When they thought, Li Keyong was too careless and lost Jingzhou. Especially when they heard that even if Li Keyong was killed and nearly half of the generals were controlled by Zhu Wen, they could still reverse the counterattack. They beat Zhu Wen so hard that they almost killed Zhu Wen. They also captured the outer city of Bianzhou and locked Zhu Wen in Yacheng and beaten them hard. This more and more verified their conjecture. It was not that Zhu Wen was very strong, but that Li Keyong underestimated the enemy.

Li Keyong's death was beyond their expectations, but it was just a surprise. What they had to consider now was how to face this endgame.

After waving the Hedong messenger back, Yang Shouliang frowned.

"General, Li Keyong will die if he dies. It is estimated that Zhu A-san will have to go to see Li Ya'er in two days. Those Hedong troops are not weak, so let's send troops as planned!"

But Yang Shouliang pinched his beard and sneered a few times, picked up a cup of tea and started drinking it slowly.

"No hurry, no hurry."

"No hurry?"

Soon, a general came back and laughed. "The general's intention is that we first watch the fire across the river, watch the tiger fight on the mountain, wait for the angry Hedong Army to fight with Zhu A-san first to fight both sides, and then we can easily clean up the mess?"

"Isn't this better?" Yang Shouliang smiled. In fact, he was thinking more than that. He thought that Zhu Wen was definitely not the opponent of the Hedong Army. After the Hedong Army destroyed Zhu Wen, he would definitely suffer a lot of losses. At that time, he took action again, and easily captured Xuanwu Town, and secondly, he also fell in love with the Hedong Army who led Li Keyong to the south this time. If he could swallow this elite team that had no leader, his strength would have increased a lot. At that time, maybe he could also become the commander of Xuanwu Jie and control the town, and no longer a general of Wulao Pass.

"Send a scout camp to closely monitor the movements in Zhengzhou, Bianzhou and Huazhou, especially the situation of Cao and Songzhou in the east of Bianzhou, and must be closely monitored." The east of the Bian River is all the territory of Qin Fan. At present, Li Keyong lost Jingzhou carelessly and was killed by Zhu Wen. The Hedong Army and the Bian Army have already made real fire. At this time, although Yang Shouliang wanted to reap the benefits of the fisherman, he had to prevent Li Jing from coming to the critical moment. Even if they signed the agreement not long ago, they had to be careful.

Yanjing, the Forbidden City Qinzheng Hall.

Li Jing was issuing military orders, "Immediately, Qin Zongquan's army, Shangrang's army, Ge Congzhou's army, Zhang Guimu's army, and the fourth army formed the Shannan camp. Immediately, Shangrang was appointed as the commander of Shannan camp and the governor of Shannan province, and Qin Zongquan was appointed as the deputy commander of Shannan camp and the governor of Shannan province. Ge Congzhou was appointed as the commander of the army marching, and Jiuguimu was appointed as the commander of the army marching, and Zhang Guiba was appointed as the commander of the army marching."

"The order is immediately, Shannan Xingying immediately marched towards Shannan Road and captured the prefectures. The positions of civil and military officers of the Xingying and the provincial provinces will be selected and appointed by the Xingying and the provincial provinces and reported to Yanjing for approval."

Since the horse is about to run away, of course, the horse cannot be kept from eating grass. Li Jing plans to use these surrendered troops of more than 100,000 to nail them to the forces of various parties and add a lot of fire to them. However, if they want to be obedient, they will naturally benefit. The benefits given by Li Jing are very simple, such as official positions, powers, and official positions in the camp and province are considered to be very powerful. The greater power is that Li Jing does not interfere with the camp and province at all, and they have the final say in the appointment and removal of officials.

This is a great thing for Shang Rang and others. In this way, he can not only borrow Li Jing's tiger skin to show off, but also not be really under Li Jing's control. Moreover, with Li Jing as his backer, he can also exchange spoils for the needed weapons and food at any time, which is like a pie falling from the sky.

For Li Jing, he didn't have to worry that Shang Rang and others would take the opportunity to become bigger. It was not easy to sit in the cracks between various forces in Shannan. Especially because they were formed by four forces. Even if Li Jing supported them, they wouldn't really become bigger. Li Jing's abacus was even more refined than them, and he didn't have to pay any money or food for nothing. He could command these guys to restrain all parties. As for what kind of camps and provinces, let's talk about it when they can really hold on until the end.

A few days later, Chenzhou.

Zhang Guiba, appointed as the military supervisor of Shannan Camp and the admiral of Shannan Province, summoned all the generals above the head of the Fourth Army and read out the order of King Jun of Qin in public.

After the order was read out, Qin Zongquan Shangrang and others had their own thoughts.

Shang Rang's army marching under his army, Sima Zhang Juyan, was the first to speak, "The Qin King means that the territory he will be captured in the future is considered the territory of the Shannan Province?"

"That's right, not only the territory we captured in the future, but also the four prefectures of Ying, Chen, Hao and Cai were first included in the Shannan Province. The territory we captured in the future will all return to the Shannan Province."

"The King of Qin will no longer send people to come?"

"Well, the officials and generals of the provincial government and provincial government are appointed and removed by the provincial government, as long as they report to Yanjing later."

After hearing this confirmation, the people present couldn't help but look surprised in their eyes. What does this mean? This means that Li Jing has already let them control one side, rather than strictly implementing the separation of military, politics and law like other parts of the Qin army, which means that they have become an actually independent vassal state in the Qin army. This is not without precedent in the Qin army. For example, Huaixi Town, Zhejiangxi Town, Yang Xingmi and Qian Liu are both disciples of Li Jing, and their sisters have both married Li Jing. As a result, these two people have received strong support from Li Jing over the years and are now separating the other side. Although they are named under the Qin vassal state, they are actually an independent vassal state. Now, Li Jing is willing to let them enjoy such treatment, how are they unhappy?

Although everyone is not an ordinary person, they have long understood that Li Jing is willing to take such conditions. It is entirely because Shannan Road is not in their hands now. If you want to control Shannan independently, you must first conquer Shannan. However, they don’t care about these things. You can’t even think about Li Jing helping them fight and then leaving them to control.

All they need is that Li Jing will not regret it afterwards. It is enough to wait for them to settle the territory and pick peaches again.

"The King of Qin promised a thousand gold, so he didn't have to worry about his reputation. Now Li Keyong had just been killed by Zhu Wen in Bianzhou, and the Hedong army had already surrounded Bianzhou. The Liang army of the Tang, Sui, Deng and other prefectures in Shannan were receiving orders to support Bianzhou. The Shannan prefectures that were originally controlled by Zhu Wen were empty. You guys, the opportunity was once a lifetime, and you can't lose it. As long as we conquer, the territory would be ours."

Shannan Road has a large territory. It was originally one of the ten major roads, but later it was divided into Shandong and Shannan West. Shannan West Road is also Xingyuan Town and belongs to one of the Three Rivers. Shannan East has a large territory. From the upper reaches of the Huai River to the middle and lower reaches of the Han River, it all belongs to Shannan East Road.

The east road of Shannan connects Huaixi Town in the east, Eyue, Zhongwu Town in the north, the capital in the east, Jin Shang and Shaanxi Guo in the west, and Jingnan and Xingyuan in the south. Its subordinates to Xiangzhou, Fuzhou, Yingzhou, Fangzhou, Junzhou, Tang, Deng, and Sui, and has eight states.

In his early years, Yu Cong, Li Fu and Liu Jurong served as the commander of the vassal state.

Liu Jurong was also a general. He once fought with Cao Quanyue and Cui Yunqing to attack Huang Chao, defeated Huang Chao in Jingmen and killed 80,000 thieves. But in the end, when Liu Jurong was the governor of Jiangnan West Road and Zhennan Army, Cui Yunqing, proposed to take advantage of the victory to attack the thieves, saying: "The Li family in the court has many people who are in danger. If they are in danger, they do not cherish the rewards of officials and forget them. It is better to keep the thieves and make land for wealth and honor." Liu Jurong's approach to raising thieves ultimately made Huang Chao escape and finally make a comeback and rampant the world.

Like the former famous general Gao Pian, Gao Jurong later had no intention of killing thieves, but became obsessed with alchemy. He recruited an alchemist named Shentu, who was obsessed with burning gold all day long. Although he led the important town in Shannan, he no longer had the big move to attack Huang Chao. Until now, he has grown older and has been defeated repeatedly by the rising Zhu Wen, and has seized half of the Shandong East Road. Now he is guarding Xiangyang City, and he is just a matter of just living it.

Qin Zongquan turned out to be a neighbor of Liu Jurong. He looked down on Liu Jurong very much and had long been in the territory of Shandong East Road. Now there is such an opportunity, and Li Jing publicly supports them to fight Shannan. How could he not be moved and control Zhu Wen, who is half of Shandong East Road, and he is too busy to take care of himself. Liu Jurong, who controls his other half of Shandong East Road, is still thinking about turning stones into gold all day long.

Taking down the East Road of Shannan, leading troops south, and going south, it is a rare place of peace that has been in the Central Plains in recent years. Jingnan, Jiangxi, Hunan, and Eyue are all grain-producing areas, and traditionally, where few soldiers and weak troops have been.

If you can really capture this area, it is like Jingzhou during the Three Kingdoms period. Who can control this area? It is really connected to Wu Yue in the south, Shu Han in the west, and Central Plains in the north!

There was almost no hesitation, and the Fourth Legion quickly reached an agreement and immediately established the Shannan Camp and the Shannan Province.

"Send the order to make dinner at the fourth day of tomorrow, start at the fifth day of tomorrow, and send troops to Tangzhou and attack Xiangyang directly!" Shang Rang, the commander of the camp, waved his hair and issued a commander!
Chapter completed!
