The world of counterfeit magistrates competes in the world

Chapter 683
At the beginning of April, there was only the last checkpoint left at Tianjing Pass, and the remaining 20 troops were crowded in the narrow valley entrance, in a dilemma.

As the chief general of Tianjing Pass, Cao Heng is the most powerful member of the Cao family and Cao Ziyan's uncle.It was he who resisted the two-sided attack of the Tianhua army and persisted for nearly two months.But now, the situation has been settled, even if he is capable, there is nothing he can do at this time.

Looking at the hesitant look of his followers, Cao Heng showed a worried look on his face.He knew that the 20 people were already scared of being beaten.

Now, they are trapped in the Tianjing Pass, completely ignorant of the outside world.According to the previous plan, it was to persist here for two months, and after the various countries rose up, the Tianhua Army would mobilize troops to return to defense.At that time, the defenders of Tianjing Pass can turn their defense into an offense and take the opportunity to attack Huazhou.

But now that two months are approaching, there is no sign of the Tianhua army retreating at all.He has no confidence at all whether the countries will send troops according to the covenant.

When the horns on both sides sounded, Cao Heng knew that the opponent's attack was about to start again.He immediately ordered the entire army to deploy defenses, and once again fought to the death with the Hengshan Army.

The two sides fought again immediately, the artillery fire roared, the crossbow arrows flew together, the explosion sounded deafening, and the flesh and blood splattered.

At this time, I heard the sound of a low-pitched horn in the distance in the east, and then a black line spread from the horizon.

Luo Yi was startled immediately, besides the defenders of Longyang, who else could appear behind him at this time?
Luo Yi immediately ordered to allocate half of the troops, and immediately assembled defenses in the rear to block the opponent's impact.

When Cao Heng saw the big flag with Cao characters on the opposite side, he couldn't help but was moved to tears.Finally, reinforcements finally arrived.If you don't break through as soon as possible at this time, when will you wait?
Therefore, he immediately ordered the whole army to prepare to break out of the siege, but at this time, fierce fighting was still going on on the west side of Tianjing Pass.But at this moment, Cao Heng could no longer care about them. While ordering them to defend with all their strength, he quietly assembled an army, preparing to break out from the west side.

When Gan Zongwang led his troops to fight Luo Yi's army.The defenders in Tianjing Pass immediately opened the city gate and rushed out, attacking the Tianhua Army's defense line in one fell swoop.The Tianhua army was divided into half of its troops and equipment, and the blocking force was not as strong as before.

Under the command of Cao Heng, the soldiers of the Cao Army desperately charged the Tianhua Army's defense line in order to survive. For a while, the Tianhua Army was rushed to pieces, and it seemed that they could not stop it.

But at this time, Luo Yi's central route army was inextricably fighting with the Longyang defenders, and it was difficult to care about the battle situation on the front line for a while.As more and more Cao troops poured in, the right wing of the Tianhua Army was defeated, and tens of thousands of troops flocked to flee.No matter how the Tianhua army tried to stop it, it would be of no avail.

Luo Yi immediately ordered [-] cavalry to step up their pursuit in an attempt to intercept the fleeing Cao army.However, when Gan Zongwang led the army to cut off the rear, the cavalry was blocked, and even if they kept attacking the Cao army's line, they could not easily break through its defense line.

In the end, after Lin Yifan led the army and wiped out the tens of thousands of defenders staying at Tianjing Pass, he immediately entered the pass and joined Luo Yi.

But at this time, more than 20 Cao troops still managed to escape. After chasing all the way, 8 were annihilated, and only less than [-] were captured.

And at this time, news came from Qingzhou that the East Route Army had finally defeated 20 Cao's army and was now capturing cities in Qingzhou.

In this battle, the Tianhua Army suffered more than 20 casualties, and it took nearly two months.In the end, only nearly [-] Cao troops were wiped out, which was far from the planned goal.

Now that countries are attacking China, Lin Yifan doesn't have that much time to spend in the Central Plains.But now Cao Jun has retreated to Jinshang and Jinzhou, which are their base camps. If they want to win, it will not be done overnight.

After discussing with everyone, Lin Yifan decided to draw most of the cavalry from the army to quickly support the army on the grassland.The war in the Central Plains can be temporarily slowed down first, and the two states of Zhongqing and Qinghai can be completely occupied first.

Therefore, in mid-April, Lin Yifan drew [-] cavalry from the three-way army and appointed Luo Yi as the commander of the South Army, in charge of the three-way army.And he led [-] cavalry to quickly go north to support Yang Mingyuan.

At the same time, the post-war plan formulated by the cabinet also began to provide assistance in the newly occupied middle and youth states, hoping to stabilize the two states as soon as possible for my use.

In late May, the [-] cavalry led by Lin Yifan finally arrived on the grassland.On the grassland at this time, rebellions emerged endlessly everywhere, and fifty thousand soldiers and horses were exhausted and suppressed repeatedly.The systems and facilities previously established in the grasslands were also destroyed in sevens and eights.

When Lin Yifan led the army to meet Lu Zhan, Lu Zhan immediately reported the situation in the grassland to him in detail.

Sure enough, as he expected, those powerful clans were unwilling to have their power weakened, the clans were split up, and the pastures were restricted.Immediately, when the Tianhua Army marched south and the Mobei people went south, they gathered people and horses, burned, killed and looted everywhere, and slaughtered other weak tribes and the Central Plains people who had migrated.Today, the rebels have not yet joined together, but act independently, with as many as 2 people and as few as thousands of people.It is rampant everywhere, and its whereabouts are erratic.This left Lu Zhankong with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and it was impossible to completely wipe them out.

Lin Yifan's face turned livid when he heard that, but at this moment, he didn't have much time to clean up these rebellions.Therefore, he summoned Wumu Manda to come forward and ordered him to issue an edict from Emperor Tianhua to the grassland, and summoned all the troops to participate in the encirclement and suppression of the rebels.Anyone who mentions a rebel leader can go to the government to receive a reward.For the head of an ordinary rebel, [-] sheep and [-] acres of grassland will be rewarded.The more kills, the more rewards.The higher the level, the more officials can be promoted.

This edict immediately set off a massacre among the grassland tribes.In order to get these rewards, the ministries that did not rebel immediately organized a large number of people to surround and kill the rebels.There is no way, this kind of reward is really irresistible.Ordinary herdsmen want to get the fifty sheep and one hundred acres of pasture, while the leaders of various ministries set their sights on adding officials and ranks.As long as he can kill a rebel leader, he can enter the Hengshan system, and he may become the same person as Lord Umu Manda.

Lin Yifan naturally knew that his edict would arouse the interest of many people. If he could really wipe out the rebels, he would not hesitate to award these tribes who sincerely took refuge in Tianhua.But more importantly, he wanted to take this opportunity to let the various tribes fight each other, weakening the strength of the various tribes for the future governance of the grassland.For this reason, he ordered that the head be exchanged for the reward.He planned to leave none of those rebellious tribes.

But these are all things to say later, at this time, he has already led the army to gallop northward to Kunxie City.
