Chapter 290 Hehe Hehe, Seven Counties Return to Xia

The four gates of Qingwu City were sealed off, and there were no traces of pedestrians on the street. The hustle and bustle of the newly established capital was swept away.

The soldiers guarding the city behaved differently, some were terrified, some looked serious, and more were full of panic.

They all looked towards the northeast sky at the same time, where the soldiers were united and covered by smoke and clouds.

From time to time, the sound of the golden sword wafting along with the wind made one's heart tense, and never expected that Xinliang Fangli would suffer a catastrophe.

The counties and checkpoints on the outskirts of Qingwu couldn't even delay consumption. Nearly [-] soldiers and horses were stationed at the junction of the northern Xiyuan, and very few escaped back.

Most of the front-line Liang Jun did not die in battle, but realized the gap in strength after the fight, and surrendered in groups.

According to the intelligence of a few loyal defeated soldiers, they only saw the designation of the Great Xia Shengjie Army from the beginning to the end, that is, only 1 people defeated the [-] Liang Army.

The master general took the lead in charging, the innate captain was not afraid of life and death, and the entire battalion leader was armed.

Such a strong army in martial arts is not something that a group of local county soldiers can consume and wear out. The momentum ebbs and flows, but it brings huge pressure to himself.

Seeing that Xia Jun was about to approach the city, Zhao Xun was arguing with his courtiers whether to defend or move.

……

Three hundred miles away, there is a luxurious manor surrounded by mountains and rivers, which is the temporary residence of Duke Xia Zhou Bai.

The new head of the Xu family, Xu Yuanchen, was carefully following behind the nobles, but during the process of wandering around the manor, there were many soldiers and soldiers, and the atmosphere was silent.

This made him tense all over, and cold sweat drenched his robe.

The manor here is the most important and secret foundation of his Xu family. It is the name of another family to the outside world, and it has stored a large amount of wealth and materials for a long time.

Zhao Xun occupied Qingwu, destroyed Xu Jiazu's house, searched the whole territory, but did not find it.

The various natural disasters since the last years of Xiangxing and the chaos in Qingxu, the Xu family can survive safely and take the opportunity to develop, which shows the depth of the 300-year-old county prestige.

But "soldiers, the great affairs of the country, the place of death and life, the way of survival."

After repeated defeats and the loss of external vassal forces, no matter how deep the family background is, it is time to run out of fuel.

Such a basic manor with accumulated savings is the hope of a comeback.

But who would have expected that Zhao Xun Dasuo's entire territory would not be exposed, but Xia Guo, an out-of-state force, could accurately grasp the lifeline of his Xu family.

Could it be that someone from the upper echelons of the family has taken refuge first?
If Xia Guo had even grasped the fundamentals of the situation, then he would really have no confidence in negotiating.

Previously, Xu Zhi, the head of his family's elder brother, intended to ask for the position of governor, which probably annoyed Duke Xia.

The whole of Dingzhou has never had the post of governor and state shepherd. The more Xu Yuanchen thinks about it, the more angry he is with that cheap brother who doesn't know the current affairs.

In the early years, Daxu didn't end when he fell apart, but now that the dragon's energy pattern is roughly formed and he wants to take advantage of the fire, it's no wonder that he is not affected by luck and dies.

Just when Xu Yuanchen was flustered, a group of people had already arrived at the center of the manor, facing a towering and simple attic, with strong aura and lingering yellow luck, it was obviously an important place.

Several servants with deep qi were stared at by the guards of the imperial camp, but if there were any changes, they would be suppressed by thunder.

And one of the second-level priests inside was even more pale, and his mana was stagnant and did not dare to operate, because there were no less than five real people's spiritual senses locked on him.

"Awesome, dear Zilu." Zhou Bai couldn't help sighing as he climbed up the steps to observe the layout of the manor.

All of you here are cultural people, of course you know that the content is praise, praising the manor as a magnificent palace, living in it to honor your ancestors.

But Xu Yuanchen couldn't bear it any longer, fell to his knees with a plop, and said in a trembling voice: "The humble family can't bear the praise of the lord."

At this time, there was no need for Zhou Bai to refute in person, the secretary Lang Jiang Yuankui who was accompanying him immediately stepped forward.

His eyes were full of mana, and after scanning from left to right, he stared straight at Xu Yuanchen: "A small family with both prosperity and wealth? Or a small family full of yellow energy and hidden in fortune? "

Xu Yuanchen was shocked. He knew that the principality was the head of the feudal lords, so there must be a lot of talents, but can a random eighth-rank official have such insight?

"In an attic of a nobleman, a spirit-gathering formation worth thousands of spirit stones is arranged, and it may not be enough just for people to practice."

Without waiting for Xu Yuanchen to explain, Jiang Yuankui stepped forward to pull him up again, pointed to a few areas and said indifferently: "There are more than one hundred thousand silver hidden under the lotus pond, and those warehouses are not forage, but tens of thousands of stones." The new food, and the weapons in the Xiyuan secret room are enough to arm three thousand elite soldiers..."

"Is this what you and General Zhou Ping said, the family resources are exhausted, and you need support to help Wang Shi attack the Liang Kingdom?"

As soon as he stood up, Xu Yuanchen's legs went limp, and Zhou Bai's indifferent eyes made him keenly aware that the catastrophe of genocide was just around the corner.

Still negotiating conditions and wanting better treatment?It can only be said that the group at home is crazy.

"There are a lot of spiritual materials in the attic, and Master Wang can use them at will. In addition, my Xu family is willing to pour out the family property to protect the logistics of Master Wang." Xu Yuanchen knelt down in front of Zhou Bai and admitted his mistake.

"Not enough, some people can be spared and others can't be forgiven. Only by helping Gu take down the capital of the false Liang country can the Xu family have a way out, otherwise the whole family will be wiped out." Zhou Bai turned his back on the county's chief patriarch mercilessly.

The Xu family has been half-hearted since the beginning of their cooperation with Daxia. Although they did not send troops to fight, they cannot escape the crime of prevarication, obstruction and sabotage of the overall situation.

Xu Yuanchen opened his mouth, wanting to say that this is actually the practice of many rich families, but in the end he could only kowtow to thank him.

He recalled that when he sacrificed to his ancestors, he found that Xu Zhi hadn't settled in the spiritual realm, and he couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart.

Falling into the Netherland, or unable to bear the backlash of Zhao Xun's dragon energy, his soul flew away?
Zhao Xun, a weak ruler of a small country, is so powerful, let alone Zhou Bai, who is the Duke of Zhou, if he is beheaded by Duke Xia, will he end up like Xu Zhi?

The general situation is difficult to predict, Xu Zhi and he and even the elders of the clan did not expect Daxia to swallow Liangzhou in one go.

You must know that Dingzhou is a newly established state. In the history of human development in the northern border, there has never been a country with such a rising trend.

Xu Yuanchen has made up his mind, if he fails to make a move out of the fire, he will bear the consequences.

If he can really contribute to the war of destroying the country, maybe the luck of the family will turn around...

Soon, a group of rebels who advocated self-reliance escorted Xiyuan to beheaded for public display. At the same time, under the personal dispatch of Xu Yuanchen, the details of the Xu family's distribution in various places were fully discovered.

The Xia army's logistics were replenished in time, so there was no need to deliberately delay the progress and wait for the arrival of the rear army's auxiliary troops.

Zhou Bai immediately ordered to launch an offensive against Qingyuan City, clearing out the military strongholds outside the city defense as soon as possible.

The Xu family's most elite [-] clan soldiers took the lead. Whether they were senior clan soldiers or soldiers, they all knew that this would be their last chance to turn around, and that fighting for their lives would be a great fortune.

On the Xia army's side, Zhou Ping, a junior general and school, led the main attack, and [-] guards led by Qu Zhi joined the frontal battle.

Among the various armies of the Great Xia, there is a vertical and horizontal rotation policy, but the bodyguards must ensure that they absolutely pass the political review, so most of them are the most loyal Bei'an veterans.

After guarding the palace for a long time, his martial arts cultivation is at the forefront of the whole army, but his actual combat experience is gradually lacking, so how can he talk about protecting the king.

……

In the next half month, the Liang army suffered many casualties, and the morale of the army fell to the bottom.

Those who dared to take the initiative to fight, nine times out of ten would not return, but they could not defend themselves, the military camps were full of wars, and the military newspapers asking for help in the city never stopped.

Zhao Xun is familiar with military books, well aware of the danger of a lonely city without support, so he gritted his teeth and dispatched the old Liang army in his hands to try to maintain the outer line of defense.

Unexpectedly, the ending didn't change in any way. Under the guidance of Xu Jiabing, Xia Jun achieved precise strikes on various key points.

Even though the old Liang army fought more and fought less, they did not take advantage of it. An important military stronghold defended by [-] old Liang troops was actually breached by a thousand guards from the Great Xia.

An outlying military stronghold with a slightly poor location and a slight shortage of heavy-duty bed crossbows and other armaments would be difficult to hold for more than three days.

On November [-], the seventh year of Tongzhi, after losing more than [-] veterans, Liang Jun struggled to no avail and completely lost the outer defense line of Qingwu City.

The next day, Li Dingguo sent a good news that Changyan Kingdom was captured by him, and the king and ministers were captured.

Zhou Bai replied, ordering the Lord Changyan to be escorted to the front line of Qingwu, and at the same time ordering Li Dingguo's troops to rush westward to attack Nanfu County and cut off Zhao Xun's retreat.

Zhao Xun reversed his destiny and attracted the spirit of the remnant dragon in Liangzhou. After the reestablishment of Liangzhou, he was nourished by the people of the two counties and turned into the shape of a dragon and python.

If he is allowed to escape to other states as far away as Lu Ding, not to mention leaving behind hidden dangers, Liangzhou's dragon energy cannot be fully integrated, which will definitely have an impact on the subsequent peace of mind.

"Your Majesty, the foreign luck has collapsed, the damage is fundamental, and the Tianzhu will not be able to stand up in a short time.

"And you are arrogating to be a Marquis. Now that the king's spirit is far away, it is difficult to convince the people with the majesty of the king." In the Temporary Marquis Palace, a dragon-holding warlock finished watching Qi and sighed heavily.

"Since we can't rely on Tianzhu's legal network to monitor the changes in the city, then in troubled times, we will use heavy punishments and pass down an order that any officials and gentry suspected of colluding with rebellion will be killed without mercy." Seeing that the law of luck has no way out, Zhao Xun suddenly became angry. , Throwing the blood red arrow and handing it to the guard general.

His eyes were bloodshot and his face was pale. No matter how powerful the warrior's blood was, he couldn't make up for the exhaustion of his mind.

However, the tireless and tireless thinking during this period of time could not save the situation, and Qingwu City remained an isolated city.

"My lord, Qin and Ling have not responded, and the isolated city is not guarded. If we persist, Qingwu will follow in the footsteps of Xiyuan!"

Qingwu is the pastoral administration of Qianzhou, the city is solid, but it can't compare to Xiyuan Longshou.

Nanshou, Gou Quan for a while, the great cause of ZTE will inevitably come to naught.

If you stick to it, you are close to death, and there is a high probability that you will become the bones of the dragon and snake under the throne of Duke Xia.

Zhao Xun's head was intertwined with various luck threads, showing the huge waves in his heart.

A few days later, the situation became more and more urgent. After reviewing the history of Zhou Bai's campaign, Zhao Xun finally decided to go south.

After all, the green hills are still there, and we are not afraid of running out of firewood. No matter what, the situation after the southern hunting is better than when the country fell in October.

But it must not be simply retreating to Nanfu County, what Zhao Xun wants to do is to follow the example of his predecessor Lu Ding, if he can't beat me, he can't escape?

The main force of the Ling Kingdom is trapped in Tongzhou, and there is an opportunity to take advantage of it. There are many separatist forces in Qinzhou next door, and it may not be impossible to lay down a piece of territory.

I haven't figured out which way to run, but based on experience, it is definitely right to collect supplies first and transfer population.

But just when he was about to summon the trusted minister Nanfu County Sheriff, Nanfu County's [-] miles rushed overnight.

It's a call for help!

Li Dingguo's troops in the Xia army wiped out Changyan, and then the army marched all the way west, and surrounded Nanfu County three days ago, please make a quick decision.

How else to decide?

This means that the back road is cut off, and we can only stick to it and wait for change.

"The heavens have favored my Zhao family, how can 300 years of achievements come to this?!" Zhao Xun was startled and angry, and passed out with a mouthful of painstaking efforts.

At the same time, all other counties in Qingwu County were occupied. With the center trapped, it was difficult for the place to have a decent defense, let alone King Qin.

On November 27th, the Qi Luck support from millions of people in Nanfu County was suddenly cut off.

Overnight, the French Open collapsed, and death fell.

All the seven counties in Liangzhou belonged to Xia, leaving only one crumbling city, and the country's subjugation again was a foregone conclusion.
