After the song was played, black dots appeared on the horizon in the distance. The black dots moved rapidly, magnifying in front of people's eyes, and finally roared. The sound of iron hooves of thousands of war horses shook the ground as if they were moving.

Wang Hua walked down the city wall, and dozens of guards followed him down the city wall at the same time, and no one was left behind on the city wall.

But the soldiers looked at Wang Hua and looked at the guqin that was still on the top of the city, but they did not dare to lift the noose up and pull the suspension bridge up.

Qiu Shanli wanted to shout a reminder, but when the words came to his mouth, he endured it. Is it too late to pull it up? Or if the fierce man stood in the city, he would probably be recaptured.

I used to hear that after hearing only the three words Xue Rengui, all the Turks knelt down and found it incredible. Anyway, it was failure or even death. Why didn’t you struggle or run away? It was not until today that he realized that a person had reached a certain point and could not be explained by common sense.

Forget it, at worst, it’s okay if this official doesn’t work, at least he can survive.

Wang Hua came to everyone openly and looked at everyone. He didn't know each other, but when he came, he made detailed information. Everyone's appearance, age, surname, surname, habits, specialties, and personalities were all listed. He was a tiger and the other party was a rabbit. If he was careless, he would still let the rabbit slip away.

He walked to the governor Lin in Jingzhou and bowed, "Governor Lin, I have been looking forward to it for a long time."

"I dare not, I dare not," Governor Lin replied.

In fact, I was so depressed that I was so depressed, but I didn’t dare to show it on my face.

It was not unprepared. Even officials from the three states had gathered together to discuss. Wang Hua had shortage of food, but the three states had stockpiled a large amount of food, which would inevitably make Wang Hua salivate.

The three governors were not without wisdom at all. After discussing for most of the day, they found that they had strengths and weaknesses and weaknesses. After analyzing, they also analyzed many. Wang Hua dared not doubt the ability to use troops, and he did not even have the qualification to doubt. But it was not without shortcomings. He lacked military strength. If he had enough troops, why would he still have to abandon Dafeichuan City? You should know that there are many rivers from Dafeichuan to Shannan. As a ranch, it is the most abundant pasture, and many places can also be used as arable land. In fact, there are already many arable land in Shannan. Moreover, it is the territory of the border, and at least it is to recover the territory for the imperial court, which can better justify Wang Hua's reputation. It is precisely because of the lack of military strength that he gave up decisively.

The lack of troops also caused Wang Hua to be afraid that the court and Tubo would join forces to attack. Therefore, Wang Huawu used chrysanthemums to threaten the court, and Wen used great righteousness to suppress the court. He just didn't want to encounter this situation.

But he couldn't be careful, and Wang Hua wouldn't mind "borrowing" several states from the Tang Dynasty. As long as he was careful, Wang Hua might pay a serious price to seize the city of the state. His own, the Tang Dynasty, would make him lose justice. At the same time, because the three states were one step closer to the important place in the capital, the court would inevitably counterattack.

So what are your strengths and weaknesses? The weakness is that you use troops. You don’t doubt that Wang Hua can’t capture the city, but it’s not that you don’t have strengths. Wang Hua is no longer interested in the surrounding states and counties such as Guzhou, and will not be interested in the several counties under his jurisdiction. The only thing is grain, but all the grain is now in the city. As long as you guard the city well, everything will be fine.

It cannot be said that you can defend it if you want to. The second chrysanthemum in Lingzhou City began to be equally charming. God knows if there are any Taoist priests in the city? So it will be garrisoned most of the troops in the city. As long as you have enough troops, the chrysanthemums in the city will bloom, and there will be no big problem.

But there was no relaxation in all the roads and checkpoints to the original Lanzhou. Of course, with such a change, the soldiers outside the city were weak, but this problem was not big. These soldiers were originally used to check food, and the quantity was enough. Another one was to play the role of moving the beacon tower. Once the king drew his troops, he would immediately return to the city to inform him.

But no one is perfect, nothing is perfect, and there is no perfect plan. No matter how good the plan is, there are flaws.

The three governors' ideas cannot be said to be wrong, but they also have fatal shortcomings.

The army is concentrated in the city to prevent violence from the people. If the blood camp outside the city is combined with the outside, the troops outside the city will inevitably be weakened. Moreover, although there is only one big road to Lanyuan and the two prefectures, there are also many small roads. It turns out that the food was smuggled from these small roads to the Eight Prefectures. Send troops again, so that there are fewer troops on each road.

I really only think of the function of moving the beacon tower. This is what the gambling king Hua dared not start a civil war easily. The gambling itself is the right bet. Wang Hua doesn't want to start a civil war now. But it's all strangled the food, so he won't mind launching a small-scale war.

With only one point of force, the biggest disadvantage is revealed. How could Wang Hua not use it?

Once six thousand and hundreds of people were moved, they easily swept a road. Then the cavalry chased after him, which was to prevent any incidents. One of them could not be allowed to escape and inform him. The cavalry had omitted it, and there was still a third level waiting. That was the seventy or eighty soldiers who were preparing to "guard" the city gate and suspension bridge. Before dawn, they were ambushed on the avenue outside the city. If any soldiers escaped, they would be captured again. It is not said that Wang Hua was careful, and there were really four soldiers on Geshuhan who escaped. But when they approached Weizhou City, Geshuhan was killed.

After completing this, there is only the last difficulty left.

The city gates were opened at dawn, but the cavalry could not reach the city. They had to find a place not far away to hide. During this time, someone had to watch the city gate and the city head, and the soldiers in the city would not be allowed to close the city gate and pull up the suspension bridge. And it would have to be delayed until the arrival of the cavalry.

Wang Hua used a luxurious lineup.

Jingzhou was the one who presided over the matter himself. Although he might not have stood there alone, tens of thousands of Turkic people would kneel on the ground and surrender, but at least two, three, three, and four thousand soldiers did not dare to act rashly. Qingzhou was also extremely luxurious. Liu Tong led the cavalry after suppressing the enemy, but Wang Junchuo and Guo Qianguan were both famous.

There was no TV broadcast in this era. The most wise communication tool was 800 miles of speed. The soldiers took the news day and night to change horses and people at the inn. Eight hundred miles may not be possible, and six hundred miles is still not difficult. Otherwise, Yang Guifei would not be able to eat fresh lychees.

However, even though the communications in later generations were so developed, they were often misled by the media, or the media was deliberately arranged by some people, so they could only report distorted fact objects. Moreover, the source of the news in this era was nothing more than that Wang Er told Zhang San, Zhang San told Li Si again, and Li Si told Zhao Wu again. In the end, the truth was infinitely exaggerated, just like Wang Hua's killing out of the palace, it was rumored among the people that Wei used 10,000 imperial guards and set up a ten-sided ambush in the palace.

But the fact is that only one thousand people were used, and hundreds of soldiers followed. It was like this that Wang Hua used his wisdom and killed him to death. If it weren't for the sacrifice of three subordinates and Li Xuejun's help, he could have stayed in the palace.

Ten thousand soldiers are really ten thousand ants?

Although the palace city is very large, it is really stationed to ambush 10,000 soldiers. Let’s try it. In addition to the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace, people are stuck in their nests. Why did the Five Kings take care of the Shenlong coup? Li Chongjun took care of the failure and only moved a few hundred people. Li Longji was a little cruel. In addition to the bribery of the Yulin Army, there were also the murderous slaves raised by his own men. Zhong Shaojing also brought 200 craftsmen to the battle with big axes in his hands. It is not easy to count how many people participated in the battle, but it is definitely not more than two thousand people.

Although these hundreds of people sound very small, they are all Yulin soldiers on duty in the palace. Can ordinary people bribe? Transfer troops from outside into the city, and the official yamen runners are really good at it? Moreover, it would be equally difficult to attack the palace without the Yulin army in the cooperation.

So Lao Toozi's chrysanthemums bloomed in an unrealistic way. How did ten thousand people sneak into the capital? Even if Wang Hua had this idea, he would never put on his armor stupidly. He didn't take the initiative to remind the other party to close all the gates of the imperial city? Besides, there was a huge army of tens of thousands of people in the palace. It is estimated that no matter how big the imperial palace is, it will start to pile up inside. The queen doesn't know? She doesn't know about this, and she is talking about rebellion. She slapped her head open with a brick and turned on what was inside her brain.

But the people don’t know, and ordinary soldiers don’t know either. The governors of the three states may know the political trends in the court, but they have never entered the palace.

Not only was Wang Hua infinitely exaggerated, but the generals of the Blood Camp were also infinitely exaggerated. Needless to say, Wang Junchuo did not participate in the battle of Yangcailing, but later participated in the battle of the Blood Camp alone breaking through, the battle of defeating Geluo with the momentum of urging the rottenness, and the battle with Tuqishi. After arriving in Shannan, Mo Hegan was regarded as the most powerful general because of his personal vision. He became famous the earliest. Guo Qianguan's reputation was slightly weaker, but he also had a bad reputation. Ten thousand people were gone, and all of them were burned or shot to death, and almost no prisoners were taken in.

The two men brought dozens of subordinates into the city, and they could not bring too many people. Once they were brought too many, they would be selected from one hundred miles away. Hundreds of brave men stood at the gate of the city, and they could not help but attract attention. They could not enter the city one day in advance to prevent leaking news. Although it is not reasonable, it is better to be on guard against one's own advantage.

After scrambling into the city, he shouted like Wang Hua's subordinates, and said that Guo Qianguan and Wang Junchuo were here in the Blood Camp, surrendered and refused to kill them.

The reason why several brave generals were required to take risks alone is to demand their reputation.

Although it was not as shocking as Wang Hua's name, the shock brought to the soldiers was also very strong. The dozen soldiers guarding the city gate at that time were stunned. Wang Junchuo was not as pretentious or coquettish as Wang Hua, and directly disarmed the weapons in their hands. The same was true on the top of the city.

After a while, the defenders in the city arrived, Wang Junchuo still reported his name, and then said that those who resisted were killed and those who surrendered died. However, he did not encounter any trouble along the way. Because of the terrain, he was ambushed on a hill not far away. When the defenders in the city arrived, the cavalry outside the city were about to pounce on the gate.

After hesitating for a moment, the cavalry had entered the city, so why did they resist?

They all took away their weapons helplessly. Although the soldiers in the Blood Camp still had a disadvantage, their soldiers were all defeated. What was the prefect of Qingzhou who wanted to do? The soldiers didn't want to fight, so what could they do?

But Geshuhan encountered some trouble. He was not as famous as Wang Junchuo, but after the battle of Hululing, his reputation was as fierce as the sun. He also successfully seized the city, but the hidden location of the cavalry was slightly farther away.

The defenders in the city came and hesitated for a while, and the governor of Weizhou also issued an order to kill Geshuhan. However, because he had heard of Geshuhan's reputation, he hesitated for a while before he ordered it. Although the delay was delayed, it was very precious.

But still ordered.

Although his reputation is still not as good as Wang Hua, and there are only a few dozen people. At this time, he saw the personal force of Geshuhan and Wu Keli, one holding a gun and the other holding a knife, making one exaggerated, but he definitely made one as a hundred, firmly controlling the city gate without letting them close it.

After fighting for a while, more than 20 soldiers were sacrificed. Zhang Shougui came with cavalry outside. Seeing the cavalry coming from afar, the soldiers in the city immediately dropped their weapons and ran away. The officers and soldiers of Qingjing Prefectures were a little better. However, they did not take action. However, they took action in Weizhou, and Wang Hua was extremely protective of his weakness. So he felt panicked, and even some generals who participated in the battle fled. At this point, the governor of Weizhou surrendered directly.

One morning, all three cities were lost.

But Wang Hua was not interested in the three states, at least not interested now. He looked at the governor of Jingzhou and said, "Governor Lin, there is one thing to bother you."

"May I ask, Mr. Wang, if you have anything to do, I will serve you," said Governor Lin, who wanted to slap himself in the mouth.

"The main thing is food. You probably heard in Jingzhou that Tubo has changed to a more fierce general, Xinuoluo. This general led his troops to the borders of Heshan and the two prefectures in the Tang Dynasty and harassed him many times. The war was about to break out at any time. However, the treacherous ministers in the court were in power, and a certain chaotic court ruler tried to use food to make the eight prefectures not fight. I personally don't care, and my soldiers also don't care. But when the eight prefectures are in chaos, under the coveted Xinuoluo, the two prefectures of Heshan will fall first. I heard that many grain merchants in Guizhou transported food, but now they have been stockpiled, and there is no sales. Therefore, I brought the soldiers to buy food from them. Please ask the governor Lin to cooperate, don't be too weird."

Wang Hua said it very politely, but at this point, Governor Lin just didn't want to cooperate, so what?

Wang Hua was a little better. Wang Junchuo directly put a knife on the neck of the Gyeongju Governor and pulled it back and forth with the back of the knife, which scared the Gyeongju Governor so much that he almost pissed his pants.

But he had not yet killed anyone, Ge Shuhan was very annoyed. As soon as the army entered the city, he caught up with a guard, took a gun and pulled him into the air with one shot. A stream of blood spurted out in the air and landed on the ground, and there was no breath.

Then he pleaded with the collar of the Weizhou governor, regardless of whether he was breathing or not. He pleaded with him to arrange actions everywhere.

The three governors and related officials must be controlled, so that some soldiers in the city have other ideas and will inevitably be afraid of the enemy.

Then he went straight to the place where more than a dozen big families stockpiled food.

Some still owe Wang Hua food, but the food transported over far exceeds the amount still owed. Wang Hua paid the money in person. Not only them, but also some other smuggling merchants left in the city were also trapped in the city because of the food. At this time, Wang Hua controlled Jingzhou City. They were in charge of what Wang Hua wanted to do, and they all quickly took it off.

Not only these grains, but also those who saw that the price of grain was cheap in Benzhou City in Jingzhou, and ate some of the grain as a preparatory grain. Wang Hua held the governor Lin and forced him to "sell" him to Wang Hua at the original price.

Governor Lin wrinkled a bitter melon face, and it wouldn't be fine if he didn't sign it. Now Wang Hua is buying it with money, and he really paid for it. Feifu is ready. If he doesn't agree, Wang Hua won't mind not paying a penny, so he will take away the food.

The situation on Wang Junchuo's side was similar, but when he arrived at Geshuhan, he changed his nature and traded in a regular manner. Wang Hua repeatedly reminded him that there was no need for merchants to offend. There would be many good things in the Eight Prefectures in the future, and the strength of these merchants was needed to transport them into the mainland.

But because dozens of subordinates were killed, Geshuhan was so embarrassed that he did not pay a penny for tens of thousands of stones of official grain. He ignored how the Weizhou governor filled in this vacancy.

But it was not over yet. The food did not belong to Wang Hua, so he had to take it back to Yuanzhou, Lanzhou. So the soldiers of the Blood Camp forced all the livestock, horse carriages and ox carriages to gather together in the city, and drove away a large number of people to work as hard labor.

Especially the industries under more than a dozen large families, I received a secret notice from Wang Hua that when you arrive in the city of Sanzhou, the car will stay, so don’t take it back. Otherwise, the vehicles will be a little nervous. The amount of food is too huge. That’s it, and there is no way to transport the food together, so I drove away the people again. Not only the people, but also the soldiers were dismissed and they were asked to carry the car with a basket of shoulder poles. At this time, people could endure hardships. Later, they could not bear it, but at this time, they could not bear to carry one or two hundred kilograms of food at the same time.

Of course, it is impossible for them to carry two stones of food, and there is no light burden on the long journey. Each person only carries one stone.

The large group of people started to set off in the afternoon and left the city in a mighty manner. There was no word or a word, but it was impossible to see at first sight. The soldiers of the Blood Camp rode war horses and swam on both sides.

But the speed is very slow, and the sun sets, and it has only been more than twenty miles.

However, the three troops did not let them rest and traveled overnight. They could not rest. Food became the biggest constraint of Wang Hua. The news of the loss of the three states must be waiting and watching. Something happened to the three states had nothing to do with them. When Wang Hua faced Wang Hua, they didn't want to cause trouble.

But here is not far from the capital, and you can reach the capital in the middle of the night with a fast horse at most. When some people in the capital heard this news, they would definitely not let Wang Hua transport the food to the eight states. Therefore, they would definitely issue an edict to force the officers and soldiers of other states to forcibly stop them.

He had to leave overnight. When it was almost dawn, there were too many people, but it was not far from Lanyuan. Moreover, Zhu Tong had already started to arrange manpower yesterday, including countless cattle, horses, sheep, soldiers, and various vehicles, just like a grand welcome party. He took the food from the people of the three states.

When he arrived here, Wang Hua did another kind thing, and the vehicles and livestock he forced to capture were returned to the original owner, and everyone, including the porter, gave relatively generous labor. Although he used a lot of money, the money was earned. Moreover, this heart disease was finally relieved.

After hearing the news in Chang'an, Li Dan was silent for a long time, and finally said only one sentence: "This time, this dragon has truly reached the sky."

Once the food problem is solved, we need soldiers to have soldiers, to lead countless generals and to have a population base of 500,000 and 600,000 people. No force can stop Wang Hua from gaining a foothold in the northwest. v
