Chapter 289 Xixia Changes Owners 6

Chapter 289: Change of ownership in Xixia 6

Two days later, something that made Li An even more ecstatic happened again. Dai Licheng heard from Heicheng that his 20,000 garrison troops, with the cooperation of the 100,000 Left Xiang Army, actually captured Heicheng in one fell swoop. At the same time, the Heicheng Cement Factory was also broken. Unfortunately, at the last moment, Han Zhongwei's firearm workshop actually exploded, and countless craftsmen inside were killed and injured.

As long as he breaks through Heicheng, Li An is no longer interested in whether he can take Han Zhongwei's firearm workshop. Now Han Zhongwei has become his prisoner. What's the point of having a firearm workshop? As long as Han Zhongwei is here, I am afraid that there will be no more firearm workshops?

Dai Licheng's report of victory also stated that the 40,000 guards left by Han Zhongwei were also defeated by him. Now only thousands of defeated generals have escaped into the northern Mongolian Khanate. Dai Licheng did not receive a clear order and did not dare to lead the army to chase him. He could only let them escape.

Before receiving the "Li Shizhen" and Dai Licheng's "report of victory", Li An was restless every day and couldn't sleep at night. He was afraid that the army of Daxia would be defeated by Han Zhongwei, so he, the emperor, would have done his best. But now that he has won the battle, he can't sleep every night and is excited.

When Li An started a war with Han Zhongwei, he still felt cold after thinking about it. This was too dangerous. Fortunately, the matter was done. Otherwise, the foundation of the Li Dynasty for more than a hundred years would be ruined in his own hands. Now Li An only thinks about how to govern the future Daxia every day, how to face Han Zhongwei standing in the cage. Should he comfort him or ridicule him?

I was suddenly excited and excited. During the days of waiting and looking forward to, Li An actually became ill. Although it was not a serious illness, it was just a trance and lack of energy. However, if I couldn't rest for a long time, it could also cause a serious illness.

During this period, Li An felt energetic, but he was weak all over, floating under his feet, and unable to stand firmly. However, when the army that "Li Shizhen" returned triumphantly was about to return to Zhongxing Mansion, Li An seemed to have suddenly had chicken blood, and his whole body became energetic, and the palace maid who served him secretly called out, this would not be a return.

Li An's intention to give Li Shizhen was that he would go out of the city to greet him thirty miles away. The officials in the court were worried about his health. But now seeing him like this, I know that it is no big deal. Since the protagonist has become lively and prods, the extras have to work hard to arrange them.

One hundred miles east of Zhongxing Prefecture, the loess is spread out from the ground, purifying water and dust. There are colorful flags flying along the way. At least half of the people in the capital have left the city and stood on both sides of the official road to watch the excitement. Such excitement is not found every year, and the government has even written a letter, and the emperor will go out to the city to welcome the army and have the opportunity to see the emperor. For ordinary people, how many lifetimes will it take to cultivate such blessings?

Li Ann led officials above the fourth rank in Beijing, where the Daxia Dynasty was located, to welcome the capital 30 miles away. The news would be sent back every cup of tea, and the army of "Li Shizhen" was getting closer and closer.

Dai Licheng's army could not come back for a while. It would be great if he and the Qinsheng Army came back together. Li An looked at the dust floating in the sky in the distance and thought with regret.

As we are approaching, our elite troops from Daxia have returned triumphantly. Looking at the Western Xia army can already see clearly, I am excited. This time, the only ones who came to Beijing to offer prisoners were only 10,000 capturing troops. It is a huge rule that can allow 10,000 local troops to enter Beijing.

But even so, the ten thousand troops could only station outside the capital. Li An had met Li Shizhen, Meng Qing and other generals here, and only one hundred people could enter the capital.

The Three Thousand Iron Armored Guards walking in the front are the most elite cavalry in Daxia. Even if they encounter powerful Mongolian iron soldiers, they can kill all directions. Now they defeated the guards, and at this time they took the power of the victory, they seemed even more murderous and majestic. Li An saw from afar and nodded with satisfaction. The Three Thousand Iron Armored Guards are in their hands. Looking around the world, who dares to be a chariot with a mantis arm?

How could the generals of the Sheng Army be captured? Li An was puzzled. Although the Emperor's Guard played a crucial role in defeating Han Zhongwei's guard this time, the most important thing was that Li Shizhen mediated in the center and used it properly. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Han Zhongwei to capture him with just three thousand emperors.

But Li An soon knew what was going on. When the Three Thousand Emperor Guards arrived in front of him, except for the important generals such as Meng Qing, the rest of the Emperor Guards were divided into two teams, traveling from both sides, and immediately began to act as Li An's personal bodyguards.

Li An was very pleased with Meng Qing's actions, and he was not arrogant. As soon as he returned to the capital, he immediately placed his position. With these three thousand iron-armored guards, Li An felt that his courage was also strong. With such a tiger and wolf army, where can the world go?

Li An did not notice that the ministers in the court led by him, the guards brought out from the palace, and the capital garrison troops were already surrounded by the Emperor's Guard. As for the people watching the fun in the distance, they were driven away by the Emperor's Guard more than a hundred feet away.

"Meng Qing, I feel very relieved that you did a good job this time." Li An looked at Meng Qing who was bowing below and said with a smile.

"It is the duty of a villain to be worried for the emperor." Meng Qing said loudly, thinking to himself that maybe this is the last time he has called Li An the emperor. Seeing Li An extremely excited, a trace of pity flashed through Meng Qing's heart. This poor man still doesn't know that today will be the last day he will become the emperor.

"Okay, Li Shizhen, why haven't you come to see me yet?" Li An asked impatiently. In order to make such great achievements, Li An had already given him a first-class duke in his heart, and he would promulgate the world only after tomorrow morning. Originally, the ministers thought that it would be enough to enthrone a third-class duke in Li Shizhen, but Li An recommended him with his strength to kill Han Zhongwei's 100,000 guards without leaving any armor, and he also captured Han Zhongwei alive. Such a merit was just a matter of enlightenment. If Li Shizhen did not win, it might be unknown whether he could continue as an emperor. But now, Han Zhongwei has been taken down, and his merit of protecting him can be regarded as the best in the world.

"Li Shuai will be here soon, please wait." Meng Qing stood up and went to the side. With a wave of his hand, the rest of the generals of the Emperor's Guard quietly retreated and went back to lead their own troops.

The army of the Capture Army was finally less than a mile away from Li An. Under Li An's great anticipation, a team of generals rushed out of the army. Li An quickly searched for the traces of Li Shizhen, but the person in the leader looked left and right and did not look like Li Shizhen. When he approached, he finally saw the person in the leader clearly and immediately fell down from the frame with a back-planted onion. How could this be possible?

The minister next to Li An also realized something was wrong. Li Shizhen served in the palace for many years and basically knew the ministers in the court, but now the person in the head is definitely not Li Shizhen. Some people also know the person in the head. After they finally made up their minds, their eyes turned black, and some ministers riding on the horse fell off the horse.

"Protective, protect the enemy." Li Zhiguo was one of the few ministers who knew the leader. He shouted quickly, but with his throat, no guard came to protect the enemy. However, two iron-armored guards came to him coldly, like two iron walls, sandwiching him in the middle.

"Brother Li, are you okay?" The leader finally came to Li An, but did not dismount like Meng Qing. Instead, he sat on the back of the horse with a big sword, bowed to Li An, and said with a smile.

"Han Zhongwei, you are such a good method." Li Ann's face was pale and his face was sad. He was sitting in the cloud just now, imagining how to humiliate him after seeing Han Zhongwei, but unexpectedly, Han Zhongwei was not only not captured, but instead became his captive. Such a big contrast made him really unacceptable.

"Everyone has its own methods, it depends on everyone's cleverness. Why are you doing this?" Han Zhongwei sighed softly. If Li An had not brought the troops from all over the country to deal with him, he might not have been a problem as an emperor for another three to five years. Even if he was really powerful, as long as he could recognize the situation, it would not be impossible to be a rich prince in the future. But he chose to take risks. Since the bitter fruit was caused by himself, of course he had to swallow it himself.

"Don't be too proud too early. Although I fell into your hands, your black city was also breached by me." Li An now knows that there is only one chance to save the defeat, that is Dai Licheng's army of more than 100,000. The capital garrison troops have nearly 90,000, plus the 100,000 troops of the Zuoxiang Army. As long as Dai Licheng uses it properly, it is not impossible to fight.

"The empress Dai Licheng bowed to the emperor." A man suddenly emerged from behind Han Zhongwei. It was Dai Licheng who reported the victory in the black city.

"Licheng, I am not bad to you, why do you have ambition? I can give you what I can, Han Zhongwei will never give you." Seeing Dai Licheng, Li An didn't understand that the situation was hopeless, but he was unwilling to give up. He clearly held everything in his hand, why did the loyal and kind generals who he trusted suddenly turn against each other? He has always been the most trusting Dai Licheng. The entire court can no longer find someone who can win his trust more than him, but now he sees him coming out of Han Zhongwei's camp, which is a devastating blow to Li An.

"From the time when you execute my uncle, you should have expected that this day will come sooner or later." Dai Licheng said coldly.

"Okay, okay, okay. Success is also your Han Zhongwei, and defeat is also because of your Han Zhongwei. Okay, you are here, come and take my life." Li An's face was pale and his body was shaking.

"Your Majesty, the King of Xia will not take your life. As long as you cooperate well, although you cannot enjoy all your wealth and wealth in the rest of your life, at least you can ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing. Moreover, your family can save your life. Why bother to make things difficult for yourself?" Li Zunxu also came out from behind Han Zhongwei and said with a smile.

"Li Zunxu? Look at your extremely proud look, has he asked you to take my place?" Li Ann narrowed his eyes, pointed at Han Zhongwei, and said roaring like thunder.

"Hehe, the emperor is still quite smart." Li Zunxu smiled and refused to deny it.

"I will never pass the throne to you even if I die." Li An's eyes were red, and a mouthful of blood was spurted out of his mouth, and the person fell backwards.

"Come on, Emperor Long Xiu is unan, please return to the palace quickly." Han Zhongwei shouted. Although he was not the emperor of Xixia, his words are much more effective than Li An's words now. Except for those trembling ministers in the court, the rest of all kinds of people are already in his hands.

Two years after he ascended the throne, the emperor Li An was replaced. The premiered emperor was Li Zunxu, the son of the former King of Qi. Although Li Zunxu suddenly became the emperor, he did not cooperate with Han Zhongwei very much. The ministers in the court changed a little according to Han Zhongwei's wishes, and those who were obedient and able to do things remained. Those who were dissatisfied with Han Zhongwei and Li Zunxu were naturally kicked out.

As for the court, Li Zunxu had the right to deal with matters in the palace alone, even if something happened to Zhongxing Mansion, he could not take the initiative without authorization. Being an emperor to the level of Li Zunxu could be considered a style. But Li Zunxu could understand it very well. Being locked in the palace is better than being imprisoned in the captive army, right? At least in the palace, he could eat whatever he wanted, and the harem of three thousand beauties were allowed to spend money.

As for major events in the court, I am just a puppet. If Han Zhongwei could unify the world within ten years, it would be nothing great if he was a minister to him. If he could not unify the world, maybe he could really become a true monarch on that day.

As soon as the Xixia incident was over, Han Zhongwei left Zhongxing Prefecture. He had to take over the seven prefectures, including Lintao Prefecture, Fengxiang Prefecture, Pingliang Prefecture, Qingyang Prefecture, Yan'an Prefecture, Jingtao Prefecture, and Hezhong Prefecture. Now Xixia can be said to be the actual Supreme Emperor, while Li Zunxu, the emperor, had no real power. Now all the troops of Zhongxing Prefecture have been replaced by guards, and the former garrison troops and the emperor's guards were transferred to Heicheng, and Bi Zaiyu was re-in charge.

As for the 200,000 left-wing army, Han Zhongwei did not accept it completely. He just selected 100,000 young and strong from the 200,000 army and reorganized the Fourth Army. As for the Third Army, of course, it was all after Bi Zaiyu reorganized the garrison troops of the capital and the Emperor Guards.

Although there are only 25,000 garrison troops in the capital, there are 75,000 garrison troops. These garrison troops are actually the reserve troops of the garrison troops in the capital. With a little training, they are much stronger than those in the Zuoxiang Army.

The Capturing Army will also be reorganized into the Fifth Army of Guards, but the governor cannot be commanded by Meng Qing. With Meng Qing's ability, he can be the leader of the Three Thousand Emperors' Guards, but he cannot control the 100,000 Capturing Army of Guards.

Now, Han Zhongwei's first to fifth armies have a total of 460,000 to 70,000. With such strength, coupled with Han Zhongwei's firearms, it has become the most deceiving army today.

Because he wanted to accept the seven prefectures and to reorganize a new guard army, the army he led was a bit shocking when he entered the prefectures he had entrusted to the Jin Dynasty. Originally, Han Zhongwei brought a 100,000 guard army and a 10,000 second guard army, and now he brought the Fifth guard army, which was adapted from the Capture Army. In this way, he would have more than 200,000 troops around him, and the civilians and servants who accompanied the army, more than 300,000 people.

Such a huge army entered the territory of the Jin Kingdom, even if it was evenly divided into various prefectures, each prefecture would have to station more than 30,000 troops. Moreover, it was impossible to leave only 30,000 people by Han Zhongwei, and Du Gao had to follow Han Zhongwei to reorganize the Fifth Army. Therefore, Han Zhongwei had 50,000 guards and 50,000 capturing troops around him.

The 100,000 troops were stationed in Fengxiang Mansion, which made the people of Fengxiang Mansion frightened. My God, what kind of person is Han Zhongwei? Why did he bring a 100,000 troops? Therefore, the turbulent situation on the streets immediately improved dramatically. Just kidding, the 100,000 troops were just outside the city. How could the villains in the city do whatever they want? In front of the official officers, these ruffians were like mice seeing cats, not to mention in front of the army, it was like an ants seeing an elephant.

"What?" After Wanyan Jing heard the news that Xixia had changed hands for a few days, he was so calm that he stood up.

"That's right, according to the news just passed back, Li An is already afraid of the throne, and the new emperor Li Zunxu has ascended the throne." Because Wanyan Xun personally connected with Li An, he was also responsible for the information on Xixia.

"Li Zunxu? Why should he be this emperor?" Wanyan Jing snorted. Xixia was a vassal state of the Jin Kingdom. Not to mention that Li Zunxu was weak and incompetent, even if he was really a wise ruler and had no intention of his own, he, the Emperor of Xixia, should have been wrongly named.

"Of course it's up to Han Zhongwei. Now Han Zhongwei has arrived in Fengxiang Mansion. Can the emperor know how many troops he has brought to take over the seven prefectures?" Wanyan Xun smiled bitterly. This time it was really a stone to shoot himself in the foot. He had a firearm and promise. As a result, Han Zhongwei brought Li An's hundreds of thousands of troops under his command without even having to do anything behind and one after another.

"Even if Li An's army is not good, he can still defeat Han Zhongwei's tens of thousands of troops? Now he still has to stay in Heicheng. It would be great to have 20,000 troops to take over the city with him." Wanyan Jing said.

"Twenty thousand people? Your Majesty, you have said less than ten. Han Zhongwei led a total of 200,000 troops to take over our seven prefectures. Once these 20 troops are really stationed there, even if we want to take them back in the future, it may not be that simple." Wanyan Xun said worriedly.

"What, a 200,000 army? Han Zhongwei only has a total of more than 100,000 troops. Where did he get the 20 army?" Wanyan Jing looked unbelievable.

"According to the latest war report, Han Zhongwei did not spend any soldiers to solve the Xixia army. Li An's subordinates were too incompetent. A fake imperial edict allowed Han Zhongwei to easily obtain military power. All of the confidants around Li An were bribed by him. Just imagine, if Li An uses such a person to fight Han Zhongwei, even if he has a million troops, it would be like a sheep entering the mouth of a tiger." Wanyan Xun shook his head.

"It seems that I underestimated Han Zhongwei." Wanyan Jing took a breath and sat on the dragon throne.
