Chapter 834: The Second Coming Wild

Two days later, the 30,000 light cavalry led by Yan Jiancai came to the Nanfeng County headquarters. The appearance of the camp had changed drastically. Wooden stakes were built into a village wall. Every ten feet of arrow towers were treed, and soldiers wearing leather armored soldiers patrolled. The tents were reset and became neat and orderly, and the sound of killing on the school field was left shook the sky, and the soldiers were divided into several teams to fight. The archers were taking turns shooting arrows in the arrow field. Then, the yellow dust was rolling in the distance, and the light cavalry was training...

The army was stopped outside the camp. Yan Jiancai looked at the weather inside the camp and praised, "I didn't expect that these soldiers in the palace still looked a little bit. After polishing for a while, they could use blood when they saw it."

Jiang Anyi met with the news in person. He and Yan Jiancai were old acquaintances and were friends in distress. The two joked for a few words, and Jiang Anyi brought Yan Jiancai to a flat land in the southwest, which was the base of 30,000 light cavalry.

Seeing the soldiers camping, Jiang Anyi said to Yan Jiancai, "Brother Yan, thanks to your help from last time, I owe you a favor."

Yan Jiancai smiled and said, "Last time you saved me, we will be even, and we will calculate it next time."

"Brother Yan, can the refugees be resettled when you come here?" Jiang Anyi was most concerned about refugees, and these refugees are all people in Huazhou.

Yan Jiancai said, "An Yong told me your order. I handed over the excess grain to the county towns along the way. After receiving the grain, these county towns started to provide porridge and relief. Every time I passed by a county town, I left twenty people to stare at them. Those refugees heard that it was your order, and they were all grateful and said that you were a life-saving Bodhisattva. These refugees were not leaving, and were preparing to return to their hometown after you recovered the lost land."

Jiang Anyi nodded and said, "Thank you, Brother Yan."

"Anyi, there are a lot of refugees, and the food can only last for half a month. Relying on military rations to support is not a solution. You have to find a way to raise food immediately." Yan Jiancai said seriously.

Jiang Anyi said, "I have sent official documents to the court, asking the court to find a way to transport grain, and also wrote a letter to Lord Quan, the governor of Bingzhou, asking him to help. I just searched several grain merchants and obtained nearly 100,000 stones of grain, which should be enough for refugees to eat for a while."

Yan Jiancai said, "The most important thing now is to rescue Huazhou. When will Anyi start a military storm?"

"I have thought about these two days that there are more than 100,000 troops in Huiye City. Just be careful to defend the city." Jiang Anyi asked someone to bring a map and spread it on the ground to guide him, saying, "The court sent 60,000 reinforcements, plus these government soldiers and recruits, only 100,000 troops. If you enter the city, you will be trapped by the people of the Western Regions. So I think you might as well station in Huangyuan and Ziyun."

Yan Jiancai fell along Jiang Anyi's fingers on the map, constructing the terrain in his heart, sighing, "It's a pity that there is no sand table, otherwise you will know it at a glance."

Jiang Anyi continued, "Huang Yuan, Ziyun is only more than forty miles away from Huiye Mansion, and can be reached in half an hour by light cavalry. The terrain of this area is fluctuating, easy to defend and difficult to attack. You are stationed here to cruise, which poses a greater threat to the Western Regions coalition forces. Moreover, the quality of the mansion soldiers and recruiting soldiers is worrying, and it takes some time to practice before it can come in handy."

Yan Jiancai thought for a while and said, "The court sent an adult to rescue the government. If the troops were stationed outside the city, the morale in the city would be depressed. If the Western Regions army broke the city, the adults would not be able to afford it."

Jiang Anyi smiled and said, "You and Huang Jifei were stationed in Huangyuan and Ziyun County respectively. I will go to Huiye City. We will work together inside and outside to try to drive away the Western Regions coalition forces as soon as possible."

In war, you must obey the general's order. Since this is the commander, Jiang An

Yi, Yan Building Materials did not insist on it and acted as abide by the order.

The governor of Wuyang Prefecture of Bingzhou, Quan Xingqing sat in the second hall with an unhappy look. After Bingzhou Governor Lu Liangzhen was promoted to Dali Temple, Quan Xingqing took over as the young minister of Taichang Temple. He was a Jinshi during the reign of Emperor Xuan and an old minister of two dynasties. He has been an official for more than 30 years and has a profound experience.

Quan Xingqing had a bad impression of Jiang Anyi. The main reason was that Jiang Anyi was too capable and stole his limelight. Bingzhou was a big province, and the governor was a third-rank official and a tax quota. When Jiang Anyi was the governor of Huazhou, the tax quota actually exceeded Bingzhou. There were endless ways to eat, drink and have fun, which caused many rich people in Bingzhou to go to Huazhou to play, which was quite a bit like the poor neighbors coming from behind. This made Quanxingqing feel sour. The war in Huazhou was in chaos and the people fled. Quanxingqing was actually a little secretly happy, but he was not told to others. None of the officials in the palace were so smart. The words in other words revealed the meaning of derogating Huazhou to praise Bingzhou. Quanxingqing always had the spring breeze at the corner of his mouth.

He Xigui brought the request of Jiang Anyi, the governor of Huazhou, to raise grain and open warehouses for relief. Before the court's official documents were sent to the Bingzhou Prefecture, Quan Xingqing did not know that Jiang Anyi, who was imprisoned, had turned into the governor of Huazhou, and pondered coldly.

Chief Secretary Hu Zhanning said with a slight smile, "General He, the official documents of Lord Jiang's promotion to Huazhou's Strategic Envoy have not been sent to Bingzhou. Besides, Lord Jiang is the Strategic Envoy of Huazhou, and it seems that he can't take care of Bingzhou matters. This dog bites mouse and medds a little bitched."

He Xigui was in a deep heart, and his master was eager for the people to ask for it. Instead, these Bingzhou officials were polite and focused on fighting for power and profit, and did not take the lives of the people to heart. He Xigui bowed and said, "Sir, Lord Jiang saw that the refugees were displaced and there were starving corpses on the road, so he sent the last general to ask the Lord that the food consumed in Huazhou will be repaid more in the future."

Don’t beg Gu Yida sneered, “I listen to your words, Lord Jiang cherishes the people, so I will ignore the lives and death of the people. It’s really nonsense.”

Quan Xingqing slapped the table and said, "You go back and tell Lord Jiang that this matter needs to be discussed for a long time and provide relief to the refugees. I will do it in Bingzhou, so I don't need Lord Jiang to care about it. General He, please go back."

He Xigui couldn't bear it anymore, so he took out the gold medal from his arms and raised it high, and said coldly, "Master Jiang ordered the last generals. If all the lords in Bingzhou have any objections, they might as well give the gold medal."

The gold medal "Like I'm here" is a legend in the officialdom, and no one could see it with his own eyes, including Quan Xingqing. The people in the second hall quickly stood up, Quan Xingqing quickly stepped forward and took the gold medal inspection with both hands. He respectfully returned the gold medal to He Xigui, led the crowd to kneel down and worship, saying, "Long live my wishes, I'll be there."

He Xigui stood sideways holding the gold medal and said, "Sir, can you do the opening of warehouses and relief work?"

Quan Xingqing secretly hated him. If He Xigui got the gold medal at the moment he came, how could such a thing happen? The surname He was clearly a joke, and even Jiang Anyi was also annoyed. Quan Xingqing was angry and afraid. There were very few people in Jiang Anyi's holy family. He replied respectfully, "Since there is a gold medal given by Long Live, it will be like Long Live, and I will naturally follow the order. Please tell General He that I, Quan Xingqing, follow the order."

On the second day of April, at the north gate of Huiye Mansion, there were flowers competing for beauty and plants and trees. The Western Regions Allied Forces have been besieging the city for more than a month. Although the north gate of "Three Ques and One" was not blocked, Ping Zhong, the deputy governor of Anxi who guarded the city, ordered the north gate to be closed half a month ago and no longer allowed the people to enter and exit the city. The grass in spring was growing

Soon, weeds emerged on the official road in half a month. A rapid sound of hooves rushed past the official road, trampling the growing grass to break.

Seeing the city tower from afar, Jiang Anyi held his horse and looked at the Huiye Mansion that had been away for more than two years. The gates were still there, but his mood changed. Jiang Anyong didn't understand the mixed feelings in his brother's belly, and said excitedly, "Brother Hao, raise the flag quickly. Brother, is this considered returning home in glory? The delicious food of Qixianlou is so greedy."

The officers and soldiers garrisoned above the city head saw the dancing flag, and soon the city gate opened. Fang Shishu, Guan Pingzhong, Hua Sicheng who was promoted to another position, as well as Qin Ziyan, Yan Yi, Shi Mingyu, Yu Qingshan and other old friends rushed out of the city to welcome Jiang Anyi.

Jiang Anyi jumped off his horse and quickly stepped forward. Fang Shishu shouted excitedly from several feet away, "Anyi, you are finally here. I have been waiting for the rain for a long time, and I finally hope for you." Guan Pingzhong and others also came forward to see each other, all of whom were acquaintances. Jiang Anyong, Liu Yixing and others also came forward to make a fuss. Everyone was talking and laughing and intimate.

Fang Shishu smiled and said, "The city gate is not a place to reminisce about the past, let's talk slowly when we enter the city."

When he entered the city, Jiang Anyi was stunned. He saw that the streets were filled with people who had heard the news. Seeing Jiang Anyi's figure, everyone knelt down and said, "Welcome Lord Jiang to return to Huiye Mansion." Whether it was the gentry, the people, soldiers, men, women, young and old, they all joined them after hearing the shouts. The shouts rang throughout Huiye Mansion, and the joy was like thunder.

The heartfelt cheers moved Jiang Anyi to tears. He helped several old men up. Jiang Anyi shouted in a vocal voice, "Thank you, fellow villagers. Jiang swears to defend the Order Mansion to the death. If Anyi does not die, he will never let the people of the Western Regions step into the city."

Of course, not everyone in Huiye Mansion was happy with Jiang Anyi's arrival. Hua Zheng stood in his own courtyard, listening to the cheers coming like the tide, his face was as deep as water, and his brows were furrowed.

The second master Hua Sheng walked in and said, "Brother, the court sent Jiang Anyi to the court."

Hua Zheng said angrily, "I'm not a deaf person, I can't hear such a loud sound."

Hua Sheng whispered, "Brother, Han Zhong is still waiting for news at my house. How are you thinking? Han Zhong is a member of the Han family and a confidant of Han Yuanshi. He joined the Han family to join the Western Regions Army. After the Western Regions Army besieged the city, Han Zhong was ordered to sneak into the city to meet Hua Zheng and persuade him to join the Western Regions people.

Hua Zheng signaled his younger brother to silence, and after hearing nothing, the two entered the lobby and closed the door. Hua Zheng sighed, "If I surrender, Qing'er's life will not be saved." Qing'er, Hua Wenqing, is still serving as the county magistrate in Juzhong County, Duanzhou.

Hua Shengdao "Send someone to send a letter to Qing'er, asking him to abandon his official position and escape, and sneak into Rongmi State from Qingzhou. Brother, there are so many Western Region troops outside, and they can't defend the defeated generals in the city alone. The king of Rongmi State promised you the title of Zhenxihou, and even I got the earl. Several nephews are all officials, so you must not miss the opportunity. Let's take a gamble."

Hua Zheng asked, “How many men did Jiang Anyi bring into the city?”

"Bullshit, there are only a hundred people." Hua Sheng went to watch the fun and continued to say, "The army in the court was restrained by the desert people. I probably couldn't draw reinforcements, so I could only send Jiang Anyi to cheer up Huazhou. The Jiang surname could not get along with our family, so I just took this opportunity to destroy him and offered him a gift. The Jiang surnamed was unable to afford it and took advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

Hua Zheng gritted his teeth and said, "Go and tell Han Zhong and let him prepare. To launch the battle with the Hua family at the third update tomorrow, seize the South Gate to welcome the army."
