For Zhong Pingyuan, this trip to Beijing to be the King of Qin can only be described as a piece of cake.
First, Qi Yingzong did not listen to his and Li Boxi's suggestions and forced the Western Army to attack the camp, which caused a storm in the city and everyone knew it. As a result, the attacking force of more than 10,000 people was ambushed by the Jin people and collapsed immediately.
Afterwards, Qi Yingzong put all the responsibility for the defeat on Li Boxi, the main war faction, and then asked the envoy to go to Jinying with the edict to cede Taiyuan and other three towns to apologize.
Fortunately, the people were excited and official Li Boxi was reinstated.
However, the Jin people had already received the edict to cede the three towns. Seeing that the capital could not be attacked for a long time, they also planned to withdraw their troops.
What is incredible is that the current emperor immediately wanted to swallow up the imperial edict that ceded Taiyuan and other three towns.
To change things to such an extent overnight can be considered a challenge to a normal person's bottom line.
In the eyes of Zhong Pingyuan and anyone with a right mind, there was no need to give the edict to cede the three towns to the Jin people. After all, the Jin people could not enter the city at all. It was just the failure of the Western Army's attack on the camp by more than 10,000 people. What's the matter?
relation?
However, this emperor who was severely afraid of gold actually issued an edict ceding three towns because he was afraid that the Jin people would raise an army to investigate. He hoped that the Jin people would withdraw their troops.
The Jin people did retreat, but it actually had little to do with the edict. In other words, it was an unexpected surprise for the Jin people to get the edict from the Emperor of Qi to legally cede three towns.
So why did Qi Yingzong regret it immediately?
On the one hand, it was because the Jin people withdrew their troops so quickly that he felt a little cheated afterward; but the more important reason was that the Supreme Emperor Qi Huizong began to gain a sense of presence.
In fact, it can be seen from the very beginning when Qi Huizong came to the south after his Zen throne and still tried every means to retain King Qin's army and retain his influence. Qi Huizong's move obviously did not want to bear the responsibility of being an emperor, but wanted to continue to enjoy the power of being an emperor.
After the Jin people withdrew their troops, Qi Huizong became more active and even planned to return to the capital.
Although no one knows what the overlord is thinking, it may be possible to continue to be active in the center of power. It is also possible to see his son being so unsatisfactory and want to take action himself.
In short, after the Supreme Emperor behaved like this, Qi Yingzong panicked.
Because there are already rumors that the Emperor wants to be restored in Zhenjiang.
Qi Yingzong had realized that his edict to cede the three towns would seriously damage the legitimacy of his rule, so he regretted it even more.
And this also made the political struggle between the two emperors become more and more intense.
…
For Zhong Pingyuan, his organization of city defense in the capital and Li Boxi went through several ups and downs.
Appointed, dismissed, appointed again...
Jin people came and went, and Zhong Pingyuan, the highest commander of the Western Army in the capital at that time, also jumped around in various positions.
But in the end, as the Jin soldiers retreated, Zhong Pingyuan's next mission gradually became clear.
He wants to relieve the siege of Taiyuan.
After the Jin soldiers on the East Route retreated, they joined forces with the West Route Army, preparing to conquer the fortified city of Taiyuan together. Taiyuan City had been holding on for several months at this time, and if there was no rescue, it might be breached at any time.
Before leaving, Zhong Pingyuan made suggestions to the court, hoping to rectify the Yellow River defense line to prevent the Jin soldiers from coming again.
And such a suggestion was actually rejected.
The reply from the DPRK was: The enemy has just retreated, so it is not appropriate to use troops to show weakness.
Even though Zhong Pingyuan has been commanding troops for many years, he really can't imagine what kind of brain circuit this is.
But he had no other choice. Let alone him, even if Prince Yun arrived in person at this time, it would be difficult for him to interfere in the affairs of the court.
After all, this was the time when the two emperors Qi Huizong and Qi Yingzong were fighting fiercely. The entire power center of the Qi Dynasty was like a huge political whirlpool. Any correct suggestions entering this whirlpool would only be trapped.
Twisted in incomprehensible directions.
As a result, Zhong Pingyuan was forced to lead the busy Western Army in a hasty attack.
This decision is equally unreasonable in hindsight.
As early as when the Jin soldiers had just retreated, Li Boxi suggested that they should take advantage of the victory to pursue the victory while the Jin soldiers crossed the Yellow River, but it was rejected.
But at this time, the Jin people's east-west route armies had joined forces and stationed troops under Taiyuan.
The Western Army marched rashly, and might encounter a Jin ambush at any time along the way.
The Western Army's chances of winning were already low, and now that the enemy was waiting for work, the chances of winning were even slimmer.
In fact, it would not matter if the Western Army advanced slower.
Because the weather at this time has gradually begun to get hot, the Jin soldiers have been unable to attack Taiyuan for a long time, and their morale is no longer high. Even the coach has begun to escape the summer heat. Taiyuan City has been besieged for several months. If the siege lasts for more than ten days, it may not be possible.
The city is broken.
If the Western Army led by Zhong Pingyuan moved slower and came to Taiyuan City to confront the Jin people at every step of the camp, or had an advantage in some small-scale battles, perhaps the Jin people would naturally retreat in the face of difficulties and the siege of Taiyuan would be solved.
.
However, both the emperor in the court and the officials of the main war faction were urging urgently.
It is understandable that the emperor urged. After all, he wanted to swallow up the edict that ceded the three towns and preserve Taiyuan. Taiyuan was not important to him, what was important was the political foundation of his rule.
But don’t the main war faction know anything about military matters?
Of course they know, but they don't have any good choices at this time. Because at this time in the court, there is almost no room for the main war faction to gain a foothold.
The armies of the Jin and the People were overwhelming, and the Qi army was defeated repeatedly. Even the Western army's attack on the camp failed.
These failures caused the emperor to put the blame entirely on the warring faction, and began to suppress and exclude him. Even capable ministers like Li Boxi were repeatedly suppressed. They relied on the strong public opinion in the capital to retain their official positions, and even more so.
What about the other main militant factions?
Therefore, if the main war faction wants to survive in this court that has turned into a huge whirlpool, they must have a huge victory.
They hope to regain Taiyuan as soon as possible and prove themselves with a big victory.
Under the pressure of many wills, Zhong Pingyuan finally made a desperate move with a desperate mentality. He passed by Pingding County, took Yuci and Shouchun, and this was when Fan Cun, Zhao Haiping and other players played the roles of military soldiers.
The military town where he was stationed.
In the end, due to Zhong Pingyuan's rash advance, the baggage failed to keep up. The Western Army he led actually did not experience a vigorous battle, and ended in a sad way.
The baggage contained not only food and grass, but also rewards for the three armies and various property items.
These elite Western soldiers suffered from hunger, and the property that was originally intended to be rewarded to them was nowhere to be seen. Therefore, "the reward was not enough, and they all dispersed in anger." However, the originally agreed reinforcements were unable to enter immediately because they were afraid of the enemy.
Due to the determined attack position, Zhong Pingyuan was defeated by the Jin people and died in a fierce battle.
Since then, Taiyuan City has finally fallen.
As a result, the Qi Dynasty got the worst result after a hemorrhagic operation: the emperor signed an edict clearly ceding the three towns of Taiyuan, but then broke his promise and sent troops to give the Jin people an excuse to raise troops again to investigate. In the end, not only Taiyuan was not protected
When they came down, Zhong Pingyuan and this elite Western army were wiped out.
It can be said that if you make one wrong choice, you won't end up in such a mess.
…
At this time, Zhong Pingyuan was walking on the way to Taiyuan City.
At this time, he may not have a very clear understanding of his future destiny, but he has already felt that this trip will probably be a disaster.
But so what?
In this court, there were many things that we had no control over.
Shouyang, Yuci.
In the previous dungeon of the first stage, the general played by Fan Cun repeatedly investigated this line and made meritorious deeds.
And now, the Western Army led by Zhong Pingyuan has finally arrived here.
This place is no more than a hundred miles away from Taiyuan City, but this hundred miles away is already so far out of reach.
The Jin soldiers have begun to launch continuous raids, and the Western army's results in this process were three victories in five battles.
This certainly shows that the fighting power of the Western Army is indeed very good, far beyond the Xiang Army that collapsed at the first touch, but after such a record, there are huge hidden dangers.
Although the Jin people were defeated three times, they always retreated without damaging their roots. On the other hand, the Western Army was not only short of men and horses, but also lacked food, grass and baggage. They could not even reward the soldiers who bravely killed the enemy. Among these soldiers, there were already
There were complaints.
But Zhong Pingyuan knew very well that he had not yet completed the task of rescuing Taiyuan City. If he stopped at this time, everything would be over.
He still has to hold on and continue to move forward, to the foot of Taiyuan City...
But how long can such strong support last?
Finally, the golden soldiers attacked again.
But this time, what came was not a small force to test, but a main force of the Jin people. Leading them was a supernova among the Jin generals who would later be named the Duke of the country for his military merits, and he was in the Qi Dynasty.
The first sacrifice that made him famous was Zhong Pingyuan.
Just as in real history, the famous general Liu Fa died at the hands of Cha Ge, Zhong Pingyuan's fate should have been like Liu Fa's, not in terms of military command skills, but in various other aspects.
However, just as the army was about to mutiny, someone suddenly shouted excitedly: "Reinforcements are here!"
Zhong Pingyuan was surprised and couldn't believe it. He looked at the Jin military formation in the distance and found that a commotion had broken out.
Immediately afterwards, the Jin elite, who had originally prepared to launch a general attack on Zhongpingyuan, retreated in a hurry after a fierce battle.
Zhong Pingyuan was a little surprised. Could it be that the agreed reinforcements arrived in time?
But if you think about it carefully, it's unlikely.
Because he was very aware of the virtues of these Qi Dynasty troops, and the Yao Gu army responsible for supporting him had very average combat effectiveness. It was a fantasy no matter how you think about it, arriving at the designated place as scheduled and even taking the initiative to attack the Jin soldiers.
Zhong Pingyuan's guess was correct, the reinforcements that came were not the reinforcements originally sent by the Qi Dynasty.
In the original history, the Yaogu army responsible for supporting him did not arrive at the designated location in time. After the Jin soldiers defeated Zhong Pingyuan's troops, they took advantage of the victory to pursue Yaogu and defeated them in one battle.
In this slice of history, Yao Gujun also did not arrive. Instead, it was the elite Western Army led by His Highness King Yun that came!
During the few years he was stationed in Xingqing Mansion, Fan Cun had nothing to do. His only task was to let Liu Fa manage the Western Army for him.
Perhaps this Western Army is currently the most capable army in the Qi Dynasty, but in the eyes of Sheng Taizu, it is still far behind.
How can such an army compete with the golden men who are like tigers and wolves?
Therefore, under the guidance of Sheng Taizu from the outside, Fan Cun, through Liu Fa, reorganized the Western Army in his hands, and used all kinds of money, food and jewelry obtained from conquering Xixia to integrate the elites and firmly unite them.
Control is in your own hands.
At this time, the soldiers were almost fully trained, and a lot of the energy previously saved for Sheng Taizu's off-field assistance was used up.
Fan Cun should think about getting some new energy to renew Sheng Taizu.
Seeing His Royal Highness Prince Yun and Liu Fa arriving after a long journey, Zhong Pingyuan almost burst into tears.
He could understand Liu Fa's mood back then.
If His Highness King Yun had arrived a step later, his army would have mutinied, and this elite Western Army would have been gone long ago. And he himself would most likely have died in the rebellion.
It is not terrible to die for the country, but what is terrible is that it is meaningless and worthless.
But now, His Highness King Yun has avoided this step.
After the disaster, they were trapped and depleted of men and horses. After escaping, the Western Army led by Zhong Pingyuan did not have many thoughts about attacking Taiyuan.
Because they all understand that this time they managed to escape because of the timely reinforcements from His Highness King Yun. But if the fight continues, wouldn't it still be a dead end?
In a fight, not to mention the chances of winning, if you don’t even have the most basic provisions and rewards, what’s the point of winning?
What does the big shots at the top have to do with their military exploits, becoming generals and prime ministers, and these hard-working big-headed soldiers at the bottom?
This battle also woke up Zhong Pingyuan and let him know that it might be impossible to rescue Taiyuan.
However, His Highness King Yun shook his head and said to him: "Gather all the generals in the army together. I want to tell these soldiers what is on my mind."
…
The chilling battlefield is still filled with the smell of blood that has not dissipated.
The two Western armies once again joined together, and many low-level generals who had known each other gathered together, waiting for His Highness King Yun's instructions.
For those Western troops who had stayed in their hometown of Xixia, of course they didn’t have many thoughts about going to war this time. A small number of them may still have the intention of making contributions, but more of them were just motivated by this.
The trust of His Royal Highness King Yun and General Liu Fa.
But at this time, the morale of the Western troops led by Zhong Pingyuan had plummeted.
Because in the past few months, they rushed from Xingqing Mansion to the capital city and saw all kinds of strange phenomena in the defense battle of the capital. At this time, they were forced to rush to Datong. After a melee, their dissatisfaction with the imperial court had arrived.
To the extreme, even the veteran Zhong Pingyuan was completely unable to suppress him.
It was heard that King Yun was going to give a lecture, and most of the generals had no choice but to be present, but they did not have high hopes for the content of the lecture.
King Yun is not a god, how can he still change all this?
But not long after, His Royal Highness King Yun had already rode a war horse to the high slope in front of everyone.
Compared with the expedition to Xixia a few years ago, King Yun has become more like a warrior.
His figure has become stronger and stronger, and his skin color has been tanned. He has changed a lot from his original image, which was more like an elegant scholar.
This is because Fan Cun has been trying to improve his physical fitness in his spare time. In the past few years, he has made some gains.
“Zhongpingyuan!
"As a general, your rewards and punishments are unknown, and your soldiers fought bloody battles, but you failed to transport the military supplies and supplies that were rewarded to them to the battlefield on time.
"Get yourself twenty military sticks!"
In full public view, Zhong Pingyuan accepted the punishment without saying a word, took off his armor and was beaten with twenty military sticks.
Of course the soldiers who started the attack stopped, but seeing that the general was also beaten, many soldiers who were originally full of resentment towards Zhong Pingyuan gradually dissipated their resentment.
He even began to understand Qi Zhong Pingyuan's last resort.
"Hey, Xianggong Zhong has nothing to do. If it weren't for the imperial court's repeated urging, how could he have violated a military taboo and march rashly?"
"Yes, regarding the food, grass and baggage... I believe Mr. Zhong is not one of those generals who are reckless and corrupt."
Immediately afterwards, King Yun looked to the left and right.
The people around him immediately understood and moved over several heavy boxes accompanying the army.
The box was opened and it was filled with all kinds of gold and silver jewelry.
"Zhong Pingyuan! Rewards according to merit, double the rewards that should have been given in the previous battles to the soldiers!"
The generals under Zhong Pingyuan began to distribute the money and jewelry to the soldiers who had been fighting for days.
And the faces of these soldiers once again had moved expressions.
Soon, all the big boxes were distributed.
After receiving more rewards than usual, the mentality of these soldiers finally stabilized, and they wanted to see what His Highness King Yun had to say next.
I saw His Royal Highness King Yun leaping on his horse with his spear raised, his voice gradually rising.
"Soldiers!
"The warriors of our court have been suppressed for more than a hundred years!
"We were originally good men who killed enemies on the battlefield and defended our country. If we were born in the previous dynasties of Yan, Chu, and Liang, we should have been iron-blooded soldiers who conquered cities and made great achievements, and were envied by everyone!
"But in this dynasty, mediocre ministers harm the country, but they call us warriors 'thieves who support the army', have tattoos on our faces, humiliate us in every possible way, and even make us face the Jin people's cavalry!
"I know that you have resentments in your hearts!
"I know that you should not bear the eternal infamy because of the Qi Dynasty's repeated defeats!
"I also know that you are actually fully capable of defeating the Jin people. It is only because of constraints from all sides and the discord of a group of timid and mediocre ministers that you always suffer fatal defeats outside the battlefield!
"I also know that you are unwilling to go to Taiyuan at this time because the battles along the way have completely worn out your patience and made you feel that this battle cannot be won. Even if you win, the credit will go to you.
Doesn't matter.
"but!
"Please think carefully, everyone in Taiyuan City at this time is also our brothers, our dearest relatives and friends, and they are also our compatriots in Daqi!
"I promise you that after rescuing Taiyuan, all soldiers will be rewarded. Those who die in battle will receive triple the pension and be sent home!
"I also promise you that from today on, the warriors of our dynasty will no longer be soft persimmons who can be manipulated by others. You will all be the sharp swords of our dynasty. You will not only protect your family and country, but also expand your territory!
"From today on, no mediocre official will be able to ride on the heads of our soldiers!
"If any mediocre official dares to say no...
"Then I, the king, will kill his entire family and sacrifice the flag for our soldiers!"
His Royal Highness King Yun's impassioned speech did not contain many gorgeous words, which did not seem to be consistent with his status as the number one scholar.
But these straightforward and even somewhat vulgar words can resonate more with the soldiers of the three armies.
Soon, cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami erupted on the battlefield!
Although His Royal Highness Prince Yun is not an emperor, but just a prince, his mere words are enough to win over people's hearts.
What's more, he has already won the respect of everyone in the Western Army by virtue of his actions in continuously saving two famous generals, Liu Fa and Zhong Pingyuan.
At this time, the noble status of the third prince, the position of the Grand Marshal of the Northwestern Army, and the legendary experience of once winning the first prize gave King Yun a feeling of destiny.
At this point, the strongest Western Army in the Qi Dynasty was once again integrated into one under the charisma of King Yun.
…
Under Taiyuan City, the imagined war did not break out.
Under the leadership of King Yun, Liu Fa and Zhong Pingyuan, two famous generals of the Western Army, began to fight steadily and advance the camp step by step.
But seeing that the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and after several attempts but no good results were obtained, the Jin finally gave up.
The siege of Taiyuan was resolved, but no large-scale battle broke out, and not many Jin heads were captured.
But this is exactly what Fan Cun wants.
Because Sheng Taizu told him that it was not a wise choice to fight with the Jin people at this time.
Keep these golden soldiers and have other uses.
Therefore, after the Jin people withdrew, Fan Cun only led the Western Army in a symbolic pursuit, achieved certain results, and reported it as a great victory.
Then he entered Taiyuan City and was welcomed by Taiyuan soldiers and civilians.
But then, His Highness King Yun did something that shocked everyone.
He and Wang Zhen, the defender of Taiyuan City, almost used direct extortion to get the wealthy households in Taiyuan City, such as landlords, gentry, wealthy businessmen, etc., to hand over almost one-third of their family property to use as military supplies.
This move naturally aroused fierce resistance from this group of people, but in the face of the murderous butcher knife of the Western Army, they finally compromised.
Most of this money was used as rewards for soldiers.
There were some really stubborn landowners and gentry who wanted to disobey because their family had some influence in the court.
Fan Cun had only one answer to these people under the advice of Sheng Taizu.
kill!
There is no room for bargaining.
Of course, killing must be justified. It is not easy to collect illegal evidence of these landlords and evil gentry, whether it is through the power of Taiyuan officials such as Wang Zhen, or through reports from ordinary people in the city, plus the use of heavy codes in troubled times.
Strict judgment, killing these people is not a big problem.
Instead, the people in the city clapped their hands and cheered.
Although this move also aroused some voices of opposition, the voices of support still prevailed in Taiyuan City. Many people in Taiyuan City even spontaneously used some of their family wealth to reward the army, but Fan Cun refused.
Obviously, there are still sensible people in the city.
Taiyuan City has been besieged for a long time. If King Yun had not led the Western Army to rescue him and relied on the imperial court to send reinforcements, Taiyuan City would have been defeated sooner or later.
And once the city is defeated, the Jin people will massacre the city, and then they will not even be able to save their lives, not to mention their wealth.
Therefore, these Western troops did not expect rewards from the imperial court. It would be much better for the city to hand over some property to reward the troops than to have everything stolen by the Jin people.
For those who don't understand this...
Fan Cun didn't bother to reason with them, after all, his off-field aid guest was Sheng Taizu.
…
News that the siege of Taiyuan had been resolved soon spread back to the capital.
When they heard that King Yun had accomplished such a great feat again, the people in the capital naturally rushed to tell each other.
But this news only added fuel to the fire for the two emperors who were vying for power.
Qi Huizong had returned to the imperial court, but soon he discovered that what happened after returning to the imperial court was completely different from what he had originally thought.
Qi Yingzong almost put his supreme emperor father under house arrest, arranged for his cronies to make a big change to Qi Huizong's chamberlain, and monitored them in real time. Even when Qi Huizong gave the chamberlain property and received ministers, he had to do it one by one.
report.
Although King Yun's success in regaining Taiyuan made Qi Yingzong very unhappy, it diluted the negative impact of his ceding the three towns and strengthened the legitimacy of his rule, so there must still be rewards and rewards on the surface.
In this consciously safer environment, the struggle between Qi Yingzong and Qi Huizong was more intense than in the original history. Naturally, there was no need to waste people and money on the Yellow River defense line originally built by Li Boxi, Zhong Pingyuan and others.
.
All of this is of course based on some kind of wishful thinking: Now that the siege of Taiyuan has ended and the Jin people have withdrawn, then they should not come again in the short term, right?
It is a very stupid behavior to place the important affairs of the general state on some kind of luck, but Qi Yingzong himself was an extremely stupid emperor.
Since Fan Cun already knew the true history, he was naturally mentally prepared for his stupidity.
So next, Fan Cun must wait patiently for that perfect opportunity.
…
Sure enough, a few months later, the Jin soldiers went south again, still advancing from the east and west.
In the original history, after the fall of Taiyuan City, two groups of Jin soldiers besieged Bianliang. By the way, Taiyuan was used as a fulcrum, cutting off the Western Army's path to rescue the capital, leaving the capital with few troops to fight, which also contributed to the Jingping Incident.
An important reason.
In this historical slice, King Yun, played by Fan Cun, saved Taiyuan City and prevented this situation from happening.
But the Jin people were not afraid just because Taiyuan City was still in the hands of the Qi Dynasty. After all, when they retreated from Taiyuan before, they did not suffer any serious blows, and they still did not think that the Qi Dynasty's army could compete with them.
war.
As a result, the Eastern Route Army was still as strong as a broken bamboo and reached the capital city.
At this time, Qi Yingzong issued a golden edict in succession, asking King Yun to lead the Western Army to King Qin.
However, these imperial edicts and gold medals were basically withheld by Fan Cun, and they were treated as if nothing had happened.
The reason why he dared to do this was naturally because he had calculated it well.
After the Ninth Prince became the Grand Marshal of the Hebei Army, the court repeatedly urged him to send troops to serve the king, but he was indifferent. What did the court do to him in the end? It was not helpless.
Although Fan Cun's motivation for not sending troops is fundamentally different from the Ninth Prince's motivation for not sending troops, there is not much difference in terms of results.
What's more, Fan Cun knew that he would soon receive an edict from Qi Yingzong to dismiss King Qin's army and prevent them from going to the capital again, because Qi Yingzong naively believed that the peace talks had been completed and there was no need for the army to increase the burden.
Finally, with Fan Cun's patient waiting, the Jingping Incident happened as before.
On November 25th of the first year of Jingping, the Liujia Divine Soldiers came out of the city. The Jin soldiers successfully boarded the city and burned the city gates, but they did not dare to go down.
On the 28th, Qi Yingzong asked the people of the capital to donate money and materials to reward the soldiers in order to stop the troops.
On the 30th, Qi Yingzong went to the Jin camp to discuss peace. The Jin people treated him courteously and returned on the second day of the lunar month.
From the fourth to the 23rd of December, the Jin soldiers extorted war horses, weapons, gold and silk, fine wine, books and classics, etc. Qi Yingzong issued an edict asking the city to donate property.
On the tenth day of the first lunar month of the second year of Jingping, Qi Yingzong went out of the city again to negotiate peace. He did not return for several days, but kept passing on messages, asking the city to prepare gold, silver, cloth and silk as soon as possible.
At this time, most people could not guess that Qi Yingzong would never be able to return to the capital this time.
But Qi Huizong in the city was also a fool. In this case, he failed to regain power. Instead, he allowed Qi Yingzong to remotely command the Jin camp to search for money in the city. Even on the seventh day of February, Qi Huizong also went to Jin camp.
From this moment on, these two strange emperors began to help the Jin Bing suppress the riots in the city, and used the state machinery of the Qi Dynasty to continuously transfer the wealth of the city to the Jin Bing.
Originally, this was like a noose that was constantly being tightened, and the innocent people in the capital could only be squeezed in every possible way by the cruel Jin and the two incompetent emperors.
But now, the opportunity Fan Cun has been waiting for has arrived.
On the ninth day of the first lunar month of the second year of Jingping, the day before Qi Yingzong left the city to discuss peace and entered Jinying and was detained.
The defenders who were besieging Taiyuan City had gradually relaxed, thinking that this Western army would remain a coward for the rest of its life like before.
His Royal Highness King Yun, Liu Fa, and Zhong Pingyuan led the elite Western Army out of the city to rob the camp.
In the first battle, the Jin soldiers who once again besieged Taiyuan collapsed on the spot and fled dozens of miles away.
Afterwards, the Western Army took advantage of the victory to pursue and completely relieved the siege of Taiyuan.
Immediately afterwards, Prince Yun, played by Fan Cun, returned from Taiyuan to aid the capital.
