Chapter 126.

The soldiers all said that Li Yongxuan was a god who came down to earth, with world-class martial arts and magic skills. It is not surprising that he appeared in two places at the same time.

High in martial arts, it can also be said that he is extremely talented, but he can conjure countless grains, artillery, and guns out of thin air. This is not a fairy, what is a fairy?

In fact, the soldiers from Sichuan and Chongqing and Li Yongxuan who came to the Northern Expedition had long been familiar with such things.

When they marched and fought, they never had to carry food, equipment and supplies, and they would naturally have them when they arrived.

Not only does it make them more relaxed, but it also makes them more confident. With such a powerful person leading them, are they afraid that they will not win?

Along the way, from Jincheng to Lizhou, and then to Henan, not a single battle was lost, and the support and admiration for Li Yongxuan from the soldiers could not be increased.

In addition, the soldiers who joined Li Yongxuan's army were also influenced by them and treated Li Yongxuan as a god: reverence, worship, trust, and rely on...

The news that Li Yongxuan knows magic and is a god spreads out. Although it has a cohesive and encouraging effect on his soldiers and a deterrent effect on the Mongolian army, it is not good news for Emperor Song and those corrupt officials.

A large number of gold and silver treasures disappeared from the Lin'an Mansion twice, and no suspicious targets were found from the beginning to the end.

Suddenly, it was reported that Li Yongxuan was a god who knew magic. Coupled with his miraculous rise, it was impossible for corrupt officials to doubt him.

Ordinary people, how can there be such a weird way to steal gold and silver treasures without anyone noticing?
Li Yongxuan was less than 20 years old, and he practiced martial arts to be invincible in the world. In a year or two, his army strength reached 20.

If he hadn't stolen those gold and silver treasures, where would he have the money to develop his influence?Produce so many artillery and muskets?
Those corrupt officials in the Song Dynasty were out of anger and demanded that Emperor Song severely punish Li Yongxuan and compensate for the losses.

The question is, if no one can be found, how can they be severely punished?

If Li Yongxuan didn't accept the order, could it be said that soldiers are going to be sent to arrest him?How many people will the imperial court send to arrest?

Li Yongxuan has more than [-] troops, how to catch him?

In a hurry, when the time comes, he will join the Mongolian army and lead the army south. Who can stop him?

Emperor Song still saw this very clearly.

Originally, the Mongolian army couldn't capture the cities in He Nan, let alone since it was rumored that Li Yongxuan knew magic and was a god.

In desperation, Kublai Khan had no choice but to lead his army to retreat to Luoyang and the north of the Yellow River, forming a confrontation with Li Yongxuan, hoping to sow discord between Li Yongxuan and Song Ting, and reap the benefits of the fisherman.

At this time, the Mongolian Empire was still ruled by Empress Naimazhen, and she wanted to support her son Guiyou to inherit the Khan throne.

It's a pity that Guiyou is not the heir designated by Wokuotai Khan.

Wo Kuotai was more optimistic about his Ai Sun Shi Lie family, but he died before he could establish a reserve.

According to Genghis Khan's regulations before his death, the successor of the Great Khan must be elected and decided by the general assembly attended by the kings and nobles. The commander of the Western Expedition, Batu, was at odds with Guiyou. Can't be sure.

Due to internal discord in Mongolia, Wo Kuotai has passed away for four years. To this day, the position of Mongolian Khan has not yet been determined.

With the joyful harvest in various parts of Ho Nan, the surrounding Song people who lived under the shadow of the Mongolian army were envious.

Since Ho Nan Fan Yongji surrendered to Li Yongxuan, the Mongols have strengthened the supervision of Song officials under their rule.

In particular, the various state capitals around He Nan are the focus of Mongolian supervision.

These days, people from various state capitals have been sending letters to Li Yongxuan, wanting to surrender.

Even if the commander refuses to surrender, his soldiers can't help but want to surrender wholeheartedly.

If you insist on refusing to surrender, you may be killed by your subordinates as a meeting gift, and you will be rewarded for your meritorious service.

Although Kublai Khan sent people to carry out strict supervision, it was still impossible to guard against.

He decided to take the initiative.

They sent officials to pretend to surrender to Li Yongxuan secretly in an attempt to lure Li Yongxuan into being fooled.

Li Yongxuan received many surrender messages one after another, and it was difficult to tell whether it was true or false.

He didn't want to miss the good opportunity, so he used the soul-shifting method on the person who came to send the message.

No problem, you can contact and understand, and send Xuanmen disciples and spies to investigate the situation.

If there is a problem, Li Yongxuan will also stand still, wait for the opportunity, and then make plans.

Unexpectedly, officials in Luoyang also wanted to surrender.

If Luoyang is successfully captured, Li Yongxuan can lead his army to take advantage of the situation to occupy Guanzhong, advance and attack, retreat and defend, and rapidly develop and strengthen his strength.

Facing the huge temptation in front of him, Li Yongxuan did not lose his mind.

He knew that the main force of the Mongolian army was concentrated in the north of the Yellow River and some important cities, so he decided to use Huazhou as a breakthrough point to march north.

A few days later, Li Yongxuan led 5 troops to successfully regain Huazhou, occupied Baima, and approached Junzhou.

The Liyang garrison got the news, killed the officials sent by Mongolia and surrendered to Li Yongxuan.

The defender of Kaizhou near Huazhou hesitated again and again, and finally led his army to surrender to Li Yongxuan.

In a few days, Li Yongxuan led his troops to the three states.

Kublai Khan, Wu Liang Hetai, Chahan and Zhang Rou were shocked when they received the information.

They thought that Li Yongxuan would definitely attack Luoyang, or other important cities, but they didn't expect that he would lead his army northward to attack Huazhou.

Unable to attack and defend, Kublai Khan and others were in a dilemma.

The Mongolian army is good at attacking, but not good at defending the city. They can only rely on the Song people who surrendered them to defend the city.

But they slaughtered too much, and they didn't dare to trust Song people too much.

Immediately afterwards, Li Yongxuan sent Li Tingzhi to attack Puzhou with 2 horses to the east, and he personally led 3 horses to attack Weizhou and Xiangzhou to the west.

Weizhou, Zhengzhou, and Bianliang faced each other across the Yellow River. The soldiers and people here saw the prosperity of the various state capitals in Henan, and they were already ready to move.

They wanted to surrender Li Yongxuan, but the Mongols stared too hard, so they never dared to act rashly.

Now that Li Yongxuan led his army north to Junzhou, with a solid backing, how could the soldiers and people in Weizhou be afraid of the Mongolian army's suppression?

Kublai Khan, Wu Liang Hetai, Chahan and Zhang Rou wanted to lead their army to a decisive battle with Li Yongxuan, but unfortunately they never found a chance.

They did not dare to divide their troops hastily, so as not to be defeated by Li Yongxuan's internal and external cooperation. They could only concentrate their forces in Daming Mansion, Dongping Mansion, Cizhou, Luzhou, Zezhou, and Huaizhou to prevent Li Yongxuan from leading his army northward, eastward, and westward.

Every time Li Yongxuan took action, he would find out the situation first, try to avoid the main force of the Mongolian army, and play a game of cat and mouse with them.

He still wasn't sure about going head-to-head with the Mongolian iron cavalry, and even though he had a lot of artillery and muskets in his hands, he was unwilling to take the risk of fighting easily.

Seeing that it was difficult to make any breakthrough, Li Yongxuan led his army to garrison Jixian County of the prefecture, and was ready to march west to the southeast of the river at any time to threaten Luoyang.

Secretly, he teleported to Jincheng to send 1 horses out of Sichuan to Lizhou, and then transferred 1 horses from Lizhou to prepare for a surprise attack on Chang'an.

Since Li Yongxuan arrived in Jincheng, he has placed chess pieces in Bianliang, Luoyang, and Chang'an so that he can use them when needed.

At present, the main force of the Mongolian army is in the north of the Yellow River, Luoyang and other places. Relatively speaking, Chang'an's defensive forces are very empty.

On the one hand, Li Yongxuan's main forces are all in the Henan area. Unless they first attack the southeast of the river or Luoyang, they will not be able to threaten the safety of Chang'an;

When the troops were deployed, Li Yongxuan personally led [-] elite soldiers into the Meridian Valley. He planned to imitate Wei Yan of the Three Kingdoms and stage a surprise attack on Chang'an.

When they were approaching the exit of Ziwu Valley, Li Yongxuan let the army lie in wait. He teleported to the ancient tomb and entered Chang'an with Xiaolongnu at night.

This strategy may seem dangerous, but it is not.

Li Yongxuan has a secret space, a backpack, and teleportation, so he doesn't need to think about supplies at all. More importantly, what he has to face is not the stable Wei state, but the unpopular Mongolian army.

Chang'an is to the north of Zhongnan Mountain, and it was the ancient capital of China's thirteen dynasties. It is not far from the ancient tomb to Chang'an. Li Yongxuan and Xiaolongnv have been there twice.

Li Yongxuan served as the magistrate of Jincheng and regained Lizhou. He arranged the manpower in Luoyang and Chang'an in advance and wanted to start an incident as soon as possible to restore the Central Plains.

Unexpectedly, Li Yongxuan led his troops to He Nan, and after two years, he thought of attacking Chang'an by surprise.

Not long after, Li Yongxuan and Xiaolongnu sneaked into Chang'an City, killed all the important officials who were unwilling to cooperate, and let the lurking people control the south gate of Chang'an.

After completing the affairs of Chang'an City, Li Yongxuan and Xiao Longnv went to meet the [-] elite troops hidden in Ziwu Valley.

The two killed the Mongolian guard, opened the door and entered Chang'an with the long-awaited 2 horses.

Before dawn, Li Yongxuan led his army to calm down the chaotic city of Chang'an.

They thought they could take Tongguan down before the Mongolian army reacted, but the surprise was that the Mongolian defenders had already prepared themselves when they got the news of the turmoil in Chang'an.

Li Yongxuan was not discouraged either. As soon as the sky was bright, he sent people to surrender the city near Chang'an.

He believed that there should be many people who were willing to surrender. Instead of being a running dog for the brutal Mongolian army, it is better to be a human being.

As the news spread that Li Yongxuan led the army to capture Chang'an, the surrounding cities surrendered one after another. Zhang Rou, who was guarding Luoyang, was confused again, and hurriedly reported to Chahan, Wulianghetai, and Kublai Khan.

These days, everyone has known about Li Yongxuan's deeds. It is said that he distributed the land to soldiers and common people in Ho Nan without paying taxes, and even the hundreds of thousands of Mongolian troops could not do anything about him.

The soldiers and people in the prefectures around He Nan dreamed that Li Yongxuan would lead the army to attack them, so that they would not be bullied by the Mongolian army, and they could live in peace and contentment in the fields.

Knowing that Li Yongxuan led the army to successfully capture Chang'an, the surrounding cities asked to surrender one after another.

Even Chang'an can't resist, let alone the surrounding cities?Not many people are willing to work hard for the Mongolian army.

In less than two days, most of the state capitals of Jingzhao Prefecture surrendered to Li Yongxuan, and only a small number of state capitals and cities had not yet surrendered.

Chahan, Wulianghetai, and Kublai Khan couldn't believe it when they learned that Li Yongxuan led an army of [-] to raid Chang'an via Ziwu Valley and regain most of the state capital of Jingzhao Prefecture.

Li Yongxuan was not leading an army to station in Weizhou, why did he suddenly go to Lizhou?Also led the army to take Jingzhao Chang'an?

If there hadn't been a precedent before, Chahan, Wulianghetai, and Kublai Khan all thought that the information was wrong.

They were all at a loss, could it be that Li Yongxuan is really a god?

Otherwise, how could he be able to disappear like a ghost, with world-class martial arts?
In order to confirm whether Li Yongxuan was in Weizhou, the Mongolian army took the initiative to attack, and it turned out that Li Yongxuan was indeed in Jixian County, Weizhou.

Kublai Khan, Wu Liang Hetai, Cha Han and Zhang Rou were completely dumbfounded. Could it be that there are actually two Li Yongxuan in this world?A twin brother?

It seems that only this explanation is reasonable.

The point is, one is a headache for them, wouldn't it be more difficult to deal with two?

After Li Yongxuan took Chang'an, the news quickly spread to He Nan, Lizhou, Jingxi South Road and other places.

Countless Song people rushed to tell each other, tears filled their eyes, and celebrated wantonly.

Li Yongxuan first led the Northern Expedition to recover Bianliang and Henan, and now he led the army to recover Chang'an. After a while, it must be just around the corner to restore the Central Plains and drive away the Mongol Tartars.

Emperor Song and those corrupt officials who were looted were not in such a good mood.

They want to tie up Li Yongxuan, lest he continue to develop and cause a situation where the tail is too big to lose.

However, the imperial envoys sent to He Nan looked for Li Yongxuan's decree everywhere, but they couldn't find it after several months of searching.

Obviously, Li Yongxuan deliberately avoided seeing him, which shows his wolfish ambition.

Originally, Emperor Song wanted to issue an order to warn Li Yongxuan of treason, but now Li Yongxuan led the army to recover Jingzhao Chang'an, and made great contributions to the court.

If you still want to issue an order, won't you be called a fool by the people?

No way, Song Emperor not only did not dare to give orders, but also had to reward Li Yongxuan against his will, and sent someone to Chang'an to promulgate the decree by the way.

When the situation in Jingzhao Mansion stabilized, Li Yongxuan asked Wang Jian to lead an army to garrison Chang'an.

After Guo Jing's reorganization and training for several months, Li Yongxuan's army strength increased by 5 horses, and his total strength reached 25.

Among them, there are 1 artillerymen, 10 cavalry, and [-] musketeers. The rest of the arms are all available.

Ever since He Nan had a bumper harvest of grain and all taxes were exempted, more and more people from the Song Dynasty flocked to He Nan, wanting to get a share of the pie.

Li Yongxuan is also happy to see the success of the large number of people, rich labor force and sufficient supply of soldiers.

In recent years, the Mongolian army has wantonly burned, killed and looted. He Nan is full of barren fields and empty houses. Most of the people who were lucky enough not to be killed fled to the south of the Yangtze River, or took refuge in the Mongols.

It is precisely because no one is farming that Li Yongxuan allocates the land and exempts it from tax for three years, hoping to restore vitality to this already devastated place.

He Nan is located in the North China Plain, with a lot of cultivated land, it is not a problem to accommodate hundreds of thousands more refugees.

When Li Yongxuan learned that Emperor Song ordered him to be rewarded, he wrote a memorial: He said that the recovery of the lost land was due to the contributions made by the soldiers, and he had no credit; if he wanted to reward him, he should reward all the soldiers, not himself.

With more and more troops under his command, he neither received a penny of tax nor provided supplies from the imperial court, and the financial expenditure was already difficult to support.

Since Emperor Song wanted to act, Li Yongxuan wanted a little salary to be a good person.

After receiving Li Yongxuan's note, Song Emperor almost didn't go mad, and wanted to provide him with food and supplies. This rebellious minister and traitor was too courageous: not only deliberately resisted the order, but also dared to blatantly raise conditions with the court .
