"Chen Ang has stuck the supplies of the Western Expedition army. If we do not recognize the Regent and oppose supporting the new master, the consequences may be unpredictable." Wang Tongdeng shook his head and said angrily, "They are really crazy." The Western Expedition army only attacked the Dashi Kingdom, and there were more than 100,000 infantry and cavalry, thousands of miles away, and were sparsely populated. Many oasis city walls have been repeatedly war-torn and have long been ruined and unable to support the supply of the army. If the River broke the Western Expedition at this critical moment, the Western Expedition was cut off at this critical moment.

Not only did the army not only find it difficult to continue fighting, but it even returned to the army. "Chen Ang, a villain, used the cut off supplies for the Western Expedition as a bargaining chip, no matter what, it made people feel cold and lost the hearts of most people in the river," Wang Tongdeng said angrily, "It's just that he was holding the army left behind in the river, and then he occupied the magpie's nest. He said that Your Majesty is incompetent, I'm a fool, this usurper! He swung his sword to his own people, and since he had seen blood, he must repay blood with blood."

After Chen Ang and Kang Wang and his gang launched the mobilization, the lieutenants who stayed in Kang Guo were caught off guard and most of them were captured. A few were martyred on the spot and several surrendered.

This conspiracy has been planned for a long time under the banner of "pleading for the people" and is very powerful. At present, most of the lieutenants are on the front line of Hezhong. The soldiers have been repeatedly recruited, and the rebels have been prepared for it. Most of them stayed in the rear through various means, especially near Dayi, Tongdu. The rebels have far surpassed the remaining soldiers. For the people of Hezhong, the war with the Western barbarians has always been the first priority.

Although the war is arduous, the people in the river, even the elderly, weak, women and children, support the fight.

However, Chen Ang and his gang relied on not trained by soldiers and ordinary people in the Hezhong period, but newly recruited musket battalions. Among them, the officers were the confidants of the rebels, and most of the soldiers were originally workers in the workshop, and they obeyed the superior officers. The rebels occupied the main cities in the Hezhong period. In just a few days, dozens of civilian protection officials from various states and counties in the Xia State responded to the manifesto, including many founding nobles, and even King Yuchi Sama of Khotan, were also on the list. There were also rumors that Li Chan, the guardian civilian protection official in Chang'an, was very influential in Guanzhong. People inside and outside Chang'an City were also erratic. While discussing the recommendations privately, the prince Chen Chong, who was stationed in Luoyang, returned to the army to quell the rebellion.

If Chang'an turns to the Regent, a catastrophe in Guanzhong will inevitably be inevitable.

"Did the Luoyang Troupe Training make such a huge change in the river? " Zhao Xingde said in confusion.

As he saw, Chen Chong was on his side, and even if someone had a double heart, he would never dare to launch it in Guanzhong.

As a civilian guardian of Luoyang, Zhao Xingde was a popular official, and there were many people who were willing to serve. Even if he had been in the army for a long time, he was in public and private affairs, as long as he was interested in the affairs of the Kantong prefectures and counties of the Xia State, he could clearly see every move of Xia State officials in Guandong. The Crown Prince Chen Chong served as the Luoyang regiment training envoy, and cooperated with Yuan Xingzong, the general of the Eastern Expedition Camp, Wu Jie, and was a trinity-in-one. As Zhao Xingde saw, Chen Chong took over the throne and must rely on Yuan Xingzong and Wu Jie, and may even nominate Yuan Xingzong to take over the position of prime minister. Therefore, with the support of Yuan Wu, Chen Chong was able to mobilize more than 100,000 regiments in Luoyang, but also tens of thousands of soldiers in the Eastern Expedition Camp. The situation in Guanzhong is not as deep as that in the Hezhong, and the soldiers are deeply rooted in the local area. Once there is a change in Guanzhong, Chen Chong will not have to worry about local instability at all.

"It was like that, but, hi!" Wang Tongdeng looked at Zhao Xingde and slapped his thigh.

"You don't know that something is wrong with Kanto. If Kanto wasn't far apart from the river, I really suspect they were colluding."

He had some hesitation at first, and when he talked about it, he no longer had anything to be afraid of. Without waiting for Zhao Xingde to ask, he revealed the turning point of the Liao and Song battle situation in the Kwantung Dynasty. The Song State began with the Northern Expedition as the rainbow, and headed straight to the city of Xiongzhou, but failed in the city of Xiongzhou. The Northern Expedition Army of the Song State failed in the decisive battle with the Liao army and was defeated like a mountain. Among the Song army in the Northern Expedition, Zhang Xian saw that the situation was not good, so he led the cavalry to escape from the battlefield first. Lu Mingyu, who had already occupied Xiongzhou, and Luo Xian's ten troops also broke out. The separate breakthrough of these two units made the main force of the Song army led by Wang Gui even more isolated.

Wang Gui was also brave. Although he was surrounded by the Liao army, he still gathered the defeated troops to fight to the death.

At the same time, after Yelu Dashi learned about Xiongzhou, he was overjoyed and mobilized Nanjing Road at night and went south to reinforce the elite cavalry on the Beijing Road.

After more than ten days of fierce battle between the two sides, more than 100,000 Song troops were wiped out, and dozens of generals below Wang Gui died in battle and died in the country.

"How could this happen?" Zhao Xingde murmured, "Song State has been training troops for a long time, just keep it heavy, so it won't be like this."

Although the soldiers have no constant power and water has no constant shape, Wang Gui is cautious by nature and will not be defeated even if he does not win a lot.

Wang Tongdeng's statement really made him unable to believe it, but he had to believe it.

"I don't know if it is. It is said that shortly after the two armies fought, the Song army's muskets exploded one after another, and then they collapsed all over the line."

"I don't know what's going on." Wang Tongdeng shook his head. In front of Zhao Xingde, he put away some contempt for the Kwantung army.

After the Song army was defeated on the front line, Yelu Dashi took the opportunity to mobilize cavalry to divide the various prefectures and counties. The disadvantage of the Southern Army using infantry to control cavalry was completely amplified. Zhang Xian led the cavalry to retreat to Daming quickly. Most of the troops of Lu Mingyu were infantry and were fighting and going all the way. Wang Tongdeng got the latest news in the military newspaper that Lu Mingyu's troops had not crossed the Yellow River, and it might have been caught by the Liao army brigade of Wang Gui's troops.

At the same time, the news of Xiongzhou's great defeat had just begun a storm caused by the Song State.

The Song army went from singing all the way to losing armor. When the Bianjing News sent the news back as quickly as possible, all officials, gentry and people were shocked and speechless, and then they exploded. Regardless of the government and the country, they were literate, almost everyone was asking: Who should be responsible for this great defeat? Among the generals of the Northern Expedition, Wang Gui sacrificed his life for his country, and death was the most important thing. Naturally, this responsibility was not possible. Therefore, the Qing Dynasty criticism focused on Zhang Xian and Lu Mingyu.

The general, even Yue Fei, who was in charge of Daming, had submitted a letter to the court for Zhang Xian to reduce his title to the third level, while Lu Mingyu's situation was much more difficult. The army of the three towns in Henan was still on the way to retreat and could not defend himself. Zhao Xingde was not in the Central Plains, and Liu Wengu and others in the court spoke lightly. Therefore, the Qing Dynasty's discussion was raging, and most of them were aimed at Lu Mingyu and Luo Xianshi. Some even shouted that Lu Mingyu would escape at the last minute and beheaded for the crime.

"This is simply a disaster of the country!" Zhao Xingde's face became more and more gloomy, and he shook his head and said, "Rampant troops are harming the country."

Wang Tongdeng laughed dryly. He couldn't understand, how could the public discussion determine the general's life and death?

Zhao Xingde doesn't think so. If Deng Su really puts pressure on Lu Mingyu and others to calm the discussion, it will fulfill the wishes of some people and make Zhao Xingde completely break with Deng Su's mansion. As long as such a rumor is released outside, Deng Su's attitude is not clear, and Lu Mingyu will definitely refuse to throw himself into the trap and surrender. Lu Mingyu holds heavy troops, and behind them are the three towns in Henan. The court wants to kill Lu Mingyu, but Lu Mingyu refuses to die. The court will order Yue Fei to come.

Leading troops to quell the rebellion, in this way, Yue Fei's troops and Zhao Xingde will be like water and fire, and can be said to be two birds with one stone. This may be the reason why some people watched coldly. What Zhao Xingde was even more worried was that if Lu Mingyu was concerned about the court's disposal and did not dare to lead his army to withdraw to Daming Mansion, but would not hesitate to take a detour back to Jingdong Road, he would be very likely to be caught up by the Liao army halfway. Lu Mingyu's troops were exhausted and fought alone again, which would be even more dangerous than the Battle of Xiongzhou.

"Yelu Dashi had originally planned to retreat to Shangjing, and the general of Wujie was also preparing to respond to the Northern Expedition Army of Song State and head straight to Shangjing."

"As a result, these are good. After the Battle of Xiongzhou, the Liao Kingdom turned into defense to offense again. The pressure on the east was also increasing. General Wujie and Luoyang regiment trainees could only station troops in Luoyang to defend against the Liao army. Therefore, the fox and rat people in Chang'an became active only." Wang Tongdeng said angrily, "I suspect that they secretly colluded with the Roma people and even Yelu Dashi, which are all birds of a feather." His suspicion was also the suspicion of most soldiers. However, the situation was stronger than that of people, and food was the lifeblood of the army. If the army in the river collapsed due to lack of food and Guanzhong turned to the regent, it would be difficult for the emperor and the Guardian Mansion to regain the situation. Even if the rebellion was finally put down, because the war was carried out in the hinterland of the Xia Kingdom, the country would inevitably be greatly damaged.

"Luckily you've arrived," Wang Tongdeng said gritting his teeth, "or else, we might have to eat horse meat."

Zhao Xingde smiled awkwardly. The Xia people in the river regard horses as family members, and old horses are usually buried beside their master's cemetery. They will never eat horse meat unless they have to. This is especially true for the Xia cavalry. They will not eat horse meat on the battlefield unless they have to. Because it is dark, he did not see clearly the horse meat hanging on both sides of the navy's gunship. Otherwise, Wang Tongdeng would never have spoken to Zhao Xingde so kindly.

"What should we do, General Xu and Zhang?" Zhao Xingde asked, "Return to quell the rebellion, or continue to fight against the Turks?"

"I don't know about this! I just want to fight!" Wang Tongdeng said neatly, "General Zhang must come to discuss with you when he learned that the navy was here. The next plan is, you can ask General Zhang yourself." He paused and asked in a deep voice, "How much food and grass have you brought here this time?"
