Not long after Li Yuan occupied Chang'an, Xijing, his greatest enemy also appeared.
Xue Ju, the self-proclaimed overlord of the Western Qin Dynasty, turned his attention to the hinterland of Guanxi after losing his battle with Li Gui of Xiliang and being beaten to disgrace by Li Gui.
Li Yuan, who had just surrendered Qu Tutong and was about to deal with the two guys in Henan who were fighting to the death, had to fight with Xue Ju who came east in large numbers with elite soldiers from the northwest in the vast land of Guanxi.
A bunch of them.
……………………
In July, Feihukou.
At this time, after the autumn rains, the weather in the North gradually became colder.
After more than a month of continuous food transportation, the immigration team began to become sparse and almost disappeared.
From the end of May to the beginning of June in the thirteenth year of Daye, Li Po, the governor of Mayi, claimed to be the general manager of Daizhou and attacked Luo Yi, the general manager of Youzhou. In just over ten days, he captured Jicheng and killed Luo Yi, the general manager of Youzhou.
Later, the people who moved to Youzhou replaced the state with Sai.
During this period, Wei Daoer was defeated, but Dou Jiande was defeated, and his reputation spread throughout Hebei.
But Li Po's reputation in Hebei was also very bad. This move of immigrating greatly ruined his reputation. People watching in Hebei regarded Li Po as a tiger and a wolf.
However, Li Po's troops were so powerful that no one dared to oppose his advance.
Li Po spent more than a month speeding up the transportation of grain to the immigrants.
For more than a month, mules and horses have been blocked on the road, which has also caused the strength of the Heng'an Town Army to quickly weaken.
In early July, enemy sightings appeared frequently in the north. Frequent detection reports made Li Po aware of the danger. As a result, all actions stopped.
When it comes to relocating Youzhou people to the west to Daizhou this time, there are a lot of troubles. Many people are so attached to their hometown that they don't want to leave. Big families in Youzhou are also complaining.
But in fact, it was not as difficult as Li Po imagined.
After the baptism of the three expeditions to Goguryeo, the endurance of the people of Zhuojun has almost no bottom line.
Over the years, the population of Hebei and Shandong has dropped sharply. Youzhou is doing better, but its population has also been reduced by half, and even the elderly are no longer common among those who are left.
It is actually similar to the three counties of Daizhou. Youzhou has lost a large number of adult men, its fields are gradually becoming deserted, and wars are always threatening the survival of the people of Youzhou.
Several rebel armies in the south are watching with eager eyes. The Turks, Khitans, and Mohe people in the north also have intentions of going south, which makes the people of Youzhou tremble with fear every year.
In spite of all these factors and the temptation, many families packed their bags and set off on their journey westward with the grain transport team, despite their reluctance.
Therefore, the reaction was not as intense as Li Po thought.
Especially those from wealthy families. When they see that things have come to an end, they leave faster than anyone else.
Even a family like the Lu family in Zhuoxian County, after seeing the strength of Daizhou's elite soldiers and horses, felt that if they stayed in Zhuoxian County, they would be prey for others, so they immediately decided to leave behind the hundreds of years of family business and move forward.
After the family moved westward, they also thought that once they arrived in the Jin Dynasty, they would let their children seek official positions so that the family could rely on them.
It can be said that some of the big local families in these troubled times are conservative and stubborn, while others are swaying from side to side and adapting to the wind, and so on.
In short, it is a matter of survival of the fittest. Since ancient times, countless of these ethnic groups have disappeared, and countless others have risen. No need to go into details.
By the second half of July, Youzhou had gradually become deserted. Most of the people in Zhuo County had moved away, and places like Yixian, Laishui, and Liangxiang had long been empty.
Li Po paid no attention to the cities on the defensive chain in the south of Zhuo County, such as Gu'an, Anci, and Yongnu.
The granary in Zhuojun was half empty, which made Li Po a little worried. Not only would he have to spend the winter in Zhuojun, but it was not certain when he would be able to return to Mayi next year.
Of course, what he needs to do most now is to fight the battle after the fall.
The strength of the Heng'an town army was now only half. The thousand Youzhou garrison troops at Juyong Pass were surrendered by Wen Yanbo, but Li Po would not let them guard Juyong Pass, so Yuchi Gong led his army north to Juyong Pass.
, and occupied Guancheng there.
The military configuration outside Feihukou is even more interesting.
Two thousand Turks surrendered, plus two thousand Heng'an town army cavalry, and they were generously stationed outside Feihukou.
Li Po himself was sitting in Jicheng, waiting for the battle reports to come in from various places.
Flying Fox Mouth.
Dome-shaped felt tents appear one after another at the foot of Feihu Ridge, which is the only way to go south from the northern grasslands to Hebei.
Men wearing leather robes and holding scimitars at their waists walked between the felt tents.
Luo Shixin and Liu Jingsheng, both wearing Turkic costumes, stood side by side outside the camp, looking at the vast mountains and talking.
Luo Shixin complained again, and Liu Jingsheng listened silently and smiled from time to time as before.
No way, Liu Jingsheng is fairer, so he pretends to be a Turkic aristocrat, which is more of the same thing. Therefore, the clothes he wears are much more expensive than Luo Shixinhua. In order to make this outfit, Jicheng's craftsmen spent a lot of time.
Kung fu.
This made Luo Shixin, who had not become a Turkic noble, extremely dissatisfied. He had complained countless times in the past few days, and Liu Jingsheng's ears almost became calloused.
Yes, they are waiting here disguised as Turks, it is just like Jiang Taigong fishing, whoever wants to take the bait.
This is obviously not an idea that ordinary people can come up with. Except for Li Po, who is full of ideas and has pretended to be a Turk to rob Yunzhong, there is no one else.
With insufficient troops and dangers to defend at Juyongguan, Feihukou could only defeat it by cleverness.
Beside them, in addition to their personal soldiers, there were also two people, one tall and one short.
The tall man has long, high eyebrows and deep eyes, a straight nose and a square mouth, and a solid body. He looks very handsome. He is undoubtedly a Turkic descendant.
The short one next to him has dark skin and is not ugly at all. He has a bit of wildness, and there is a fierce glint in his eyes from time to time.
This is Li Po's servant Li Ya.
The four of them are the leaders of this army, and their origins are extremely complicated.
Luo Shixin finally finished complaining and began to point to the mountains to show off his work to Liu Jingsheng, "Did you see that I followed the general out of here back then, killing people all the way back and forth from the hinterland of Goguryeo, walking thousands of miles all the way?
There are more dead people than living people..."
"Hey, if I hadn't been homesick and brought people back to Shandong for a while, otherwise, Yuchi Dalang is nothing. I must be a higher official than he is."
Liu Jingsheng chuckled and remained silent.
Everyone in the Heng'an town army didn't know that Luo Sanlang was the general's sworn brother, and Yuchi Gong was also the general's old acquaintance in Mayi. They were both the general's confidants, and they were one of a kind. No one else could shake their status.
What they are fighting about is a brotherly fight. If you judge rashly, you never know when you will become the enemy of the two.
Especially the man in front of him, Luo Sanlang, was the most vicious military commander in the Heng'an Army. He didn't recognize anyone except the general, so he really couldn't be provoked.
Of course, hearing these old stories made Liu Jingsheng feel fresh and a little envious at the same time.
This year is a good year for the Heng'an town army. The speed of its rise is not comparable to that of the previous years combined. Chen Xiaoyi, the prefect of Yanmen, surrendered to the general, and then the general killed the prefect of Loufan and took over Loufan.
under its jurisdiction.
Then he sent troops to Youzhou, killed Luo Yi, the general manager of Youzhou, and obtained more grain and grass from Youzhou. Now he is moving hundreds of thousands of people into Daizhou.
As a result, after the First World War this year, it is a foregone conclusion that large-scale rewards will be given to lieutenants in the army. He, Liu Jingsheng, cannot compare with Buqun, Luo Shixin, and Yuchi, but he has also begun to stand out among the generals.
What kind of reward will be waiting for him after he returns to Daizhou?
Thinking of this, Liu Jingsheng's heart became as hot as charcoal.
But in the end, it was business that mattered. After thinking about it, Liu Jingsheng couldn't help but ask: "If we go to Feihukou, then the wise brother and the general should have passed by the Khitan tribes, right?"
Luo Shixin curled his lips and said contemptuously: "Well, those Khitan bastards were still following our Sui horses to beg for food. Now that the Sui Dynasty has failed, they come to us to show off their power. What a bunch of immature and ignorant people.
Wolf, when we were resting in the Khitan camp, there was a son of a bitch who wanted to marry..."
"Well, how are you going to kill him this time? Kill as many as you want."
"Third General..." Black boy Li Ya interjected in a low voice. He was also quite afraid of this Third General. This man was a true murderer, much more ferocious than the wolves on the grassland. He seemed to have been carved into his bones.
His ferociousness makes people shudder when they see him.
But he didn't forget a word of what the master told him, "The master said...let us kill people quietly, not forcefully..."
Luo Shixin turned around and glared at him, raised his leg and kicked him, "Do you still need to remind me? If you two get into trouble, I'll see if I kill your heads."
Unscrew it.”
Li Ya hid aside, not daring to speak.
The tall Turk next to him also turned pale and backed away. He was not as courageous as Li Ya.
Liu Jingsheng turned a blind eye, but said with emotion, "If one day we can fight out of here and attack the Khitan tribes, it would be a great pleasure, don't you think so, dear brother?"
Luo Shixin grinned with his mouth wide open and said in a loud voice, "Brother Liu is so stingy. When we have more soldiers, the Khitan tribes will be nothing more than a bunch of rats. I want to seize the Golden Wolf Banner of the Turks and give it to my elder brother. If
It would be even better to bring a few heads of this khan and that khan."
Liu Jingsheng immediately raised his hand and said, "My good brother is very ambitious. If one day comes, there will be no one in the world who will not fail to spread my good name."
Luo Shixin patted Liu Jingsheng on the shoulder and laughed and said: "With Brother Liu's good words, there will be such an opportunity in the future. How about we go together?"
"That's natural. How can we let others do this?"
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, the man's ambition clearly showing.
It has to be said that Li Po has a unique personality charm. The Heng'an Town Army he leads has the highest regard for foreign enemies in the world today.
