Ning Que nodded heavily.

immediately.

Song Yan gave Ning Que 20 pieces of glass products to take away. These glass products could at least allow King Yan to raise millions of taels of silver for military pay, even if the army expanded to [-], it would be more than enough.

In the blink of an eye, another half month passed.

The situation in the world is still deteriorating.

The entire Longyou province has been completely captured by Xue's army, mainly because many cities surrendered without a fight.

The rebel army with two provinces has formed a climate. Even if Weiguo can wipe them out, their vitality will be greatly damaged. By then, it will be the era when all kings rise together.

really.

After the Xue family army occupied two provinces, the court was completely panicked.

Emperor Wei also knew that the soldiers and horses mobilized from various military towns could not wipe out the rebels at all, so he directly ordered the Xizhou cavalry from Xiyuguan to go to the northwest province to wipe out the rebels.

Xiyuguan is connected to Liang State, and the Xizhou iron cavalry stationed there is an iron army with a hundred battles, and its combat power is very strong.

However, the number of Xizhou iron cavalry is not large, and Liang Guo must be guarded against. Therefore, only 1 Xizhou iron cavalry were mobilized this time, and the remaining [-] people were still stationed at Xiyu Pass.

Twenty days later.

Xiyuguan general Lu Qi led [-] Xizhou cavalry to the Northwest Province, and took over the [-] army led by the Minister of War.

Under the leadership of Lu Qi, the 3 troops broke through three cities in a short period of ten days, beheaded more than [-] heads of the Xue family's army, and even beheaded Xue Shan, the third brother of the Xue family.

This made Xue Ping, who was located in Longyou Province, quickly lead his troops back to aid the Northwest Province.

Lu Qi's victory seemed to give the court a reassurance.

In the next month, the army led by Lu Qi won many battles and almost recovered the entire Northwest Province, killing a terrifying 8 rebels.

And the 10 soldiers and horses he led were more and more in the Vietnam War, reaching [-].

Another ten days.

Lu Qi conquered the last city in the Northwest Province and recovered the entire Northwest Province.

However, at this point, the rations in Lu Qi's army were almost exhausted, and there was no energy left to continue attacking Longyou Province.

Lu Qi wrote several notes one after another and sent them to the capital to urge food, but there was no movement.

In the end, Emperor Wei issued an imperial decree to Lu Qi and promoted him to an official position, but he didn't have a penny of the money and food that he asked for, so he asked him to raise it on the spot.

Song Yan, who learned about this through a special channel, couldn't help saying: "I'm not afraid of opponents like gods, but opponents like pigs!"

The current imperial court of the Kingdom of Wei is a pig teammate. Obviously, after Lu Qi's successive victories, the imperial court no longer regards the rebel army as a serious problem. Naturally, it is not as urgent as when Lu Qi was just recalled. They want food and power. right.

After receiving the imperial edict, Lu Qi was almost so angry that he scolded his mother.

Originally, the northwest province was hit by a drought. After the uprising, the rebel army had almost robbed everything that should be robbed. Therefore, even if Lu Qi wanted to raise food on the spot, he couldn't do it.

In a fit of anger, Lu Qi directly requested an order to return to Xiyu Pass.

But what made Song Yan dumbfounded was that Emperor Wei agreed, and then sent Puyang Hou Wenchang, who had been promoted to the left governor of the Beijing camp, to lead [-] soldiers from the Beijing camp to take Lu Qi's place.

Hearing this news, Song Yan shook his head secretly, he knew that Weiguo was really doomed.

[Author's digression]: The second update is over

Chapter 94 Xue Ping

If Lu Qi could quickly extinguish the rebel army, the Wei Kingdom might still survive for a few more years, but this stupid decision made by Emperor Wei would only accelerate the defeat of the Wei Kingdom.

Not everyone can lead troops to win battles. Obviously, Hou Wenchang doesn't have that ability.

Lu Qi was able to retake the Northwest Province and kill [-] rebels, relying on his rich combat experience and superb combat skills. What does Hou Wenchang have?

He was just a lord, he was good at eating, drinking, having fun and flattering by bribing Emperor Wei, but he was not good at leading troops to fight.

As expected, Song Yan did not expect it.

After Hou Wenchang arrived to take over the military power, he immediately ordered the army to march towards Longyou Province.

In his opinion, that group of rebels is a group of soft persimmons, who can be squeezed as they like.

But reality gave him a slap in the face.

As soon as they entered the territory of Longyou Province, the army led by Hou Wenchang was ambushed.

In this battle, nearly [-] troops lost [-].

Even Hou Wenchang almost died in the army.

That battle directly scared Hou Wenchang's courage, and he also understood that fighting is not a child's play, and it is simply not something that people like him can play well.

This guy was worried that Emperor Wei would punish him, so he did another stupid thing.

Not to mention the forgery of the battle report, exaggerating the failure into a big victory, and then killing the good and pretending to be meritorious, killing tens of thousands of civilians and sending them to the capital to ask for credit.

There were not many civilians in the northwest province.

After Hou Wenchang made such a move, those civilians were rebellious. After all, they would die if they rebelled, and they would die if they didn't rebel. Why didn't they rebel?

So, for the next month.

With the help of the new anti-commoners in the Northwest, Xue Ping actually took back half of the territory in the Northwest Province in one fell swoop.

As for Hou Wenchang, he was scared out of his wits and hid in Hanyin City, not daring to fight the rebels at all.

But after half a month.

The rebel army dug a passage leading to Hanyin City. Under the attack from inside and outside, Hanyin City was finally broken.

Hou Wenchang was captured alive, and the remaining tens of thousands of troops all surrendered.

For a while, the rebel army regained control of the Northwest Province and became very powerful. At the same time, with this defeat, the five northern provinces fell into a void. After all, the army defeated by Hou Wenchang came from the five northern provinces. drawn out.

As for why Song Yan could understand the situation in the northwest so clearly, it was because Wu Jingwei fled back to Liangzhou City with 300 people.

Two of the five northern provinces fell, and three remain.

After a short rest, the rebel army began to attack Beimo Province again.

The Northern Desert Province has six counties and more than 40 counties. It is considered to be the most extensive of the five northern provinces, and it is also the richest in products.
