Ten days passed.
Liu Xian led his troops across Chang Shan and entered Shangdang.
Compared to the prosperity of Zhongshan, Shangdang was extremely desolate. There was no sign of cultivation in the fertile fields. There were even many skeletons buried in the fields in a hurry, like a land of death.
"My lord!"
"Although Bing Province has been invaded by foreign races all year round, Shangdang is the hinterland of Bing Province and borders Si Li. How can it be such a desolate scene?”Zhao Feng said in shock.
Liu Xian shook his head." I don't know. I'll have to go to Zhangzi County first to find out!"”
"Here!"
Zhao Feng and Dian Wei said respectfully.
Shangdang County, Xiangyuan County.
Dian Wei looked at the empty house in front of him and asked,""My lord, could the Shangdang people have been kidnapped?”
" No, the things are very clean. They must have escaped on their own accord. As for where they went, we still have to go to the First Born to find out!”Liu Xian said with a frown.
Zhao Feng looked at the carriage behind the army and said worriedly,"Lord, this matter should be related to Zhang Yang. I'm afraid it's inappropriate for Xiao Yu and Miss Zhang Ning to follow the army!”
"Zhao Feng, you will lead 400 men and Zhang Ning. Xiao Yu will rest in Tunliu County!”Liu Xian said after thinking for a while.
"My lord!"
"Why don't I go with Zhao Feng to the eldest son first to see what's going on?" Dian Wei said in a low voice.”
"There's no need to say anything else. Zhang Yang has He Jin backing him up. Killing you all will be in vain. I still need to make a trip personally!”Liu Xian waved his hand to stop Zhao Feng from speaking.
"Swoosh!"
The curtain on the carriage was lifted.
Zhao Yu looked at Liu Xian and said,"Brother Zizheng, it's fine if I go to the eldest son with Sister Zhang Ning!"”
"Hmm?"
Liu Xian frowned. He reached out his hand and took the bow from the red dragon. He casually shot an arrow into a civilian house in the northwest direction.
"Bring him out!" Dian Wei's eyes turned cold as he looked at the two generals on his left and right.
"Here!"
The young general shouted and dashed into the house with a soldier wearing a burly man's armor. There was an arrow stuck in the soldier's arm.
"What's your name?" Liu Xian asked.
"Wang Su!"
Wang Su swallowed and said fearfully.
"You're Zhang Yang's soldier?" Liu Xian frowned and asked in confusion.”
"Yes, this lowly one is General Zhang's lieutenant. General Zhang Yang sent this lowly one here to inquire about news regarding Marquis Anping!”Wang Su quickly explained.
"Haha!"
"He knows that I went to Zhongshan?" Liu Xian chuckled.”
"Ten days ago, the Great General sent General Zhang Yang back to the court to report on his work. He was also ordered by the Great General to expel all the Shangdang citizens into the mountains!”Wang Su said in fear.
"Expel!"
Liu Xian's expression was cold and stern." Dian Wei, bury him with the bones outside the city. Zhao Feng, immediately reorganize your troops and prepare for the battle against the eldest son!"”
"Here!"
Dian Wei and Zhao Feng shouted.
"Pei, do you people deserve to wear the armor of soldiers? You actually don't care about the lives of the people and chase them into the deep mountains!”Dian Wei grabbed Wang Su's collar and dragged him out of the city.
Zhao Feng took a deep breath and said,"If it wasn't for Xiao Yu calling out my lord's name, I'm afraid Wang Su wouldn't have made a sound!"”
"He Jin, Zhang Yang!"
The fierceness in Liu Xian's eyes grew stronger.
He was prepared for the struggle for power, the struggle between factions, and the struggle for chaos. However, he never thought that He Jin and Zhang Yang would actually affect the people.
"Lord, it's done!" Not long after, Dian Wei patted the dirt off his body and said.
"Bei Wei Army, prepare for battle. If there is an order, all troops charge!”Liu Xian mounted his horse and looked in the direction of Changzi County with an incomparably sharp gaze.
Dian Wei and Zhao Feng mounted their horses, both of them exuding a monstrous and fiendish aura.
The Bei Wei Army had always been an army of slaughter since its birth. They were absolutely loyal to Liu Xian and had the qualities of a soldier that surpassed this era. They were all too familiar with this kind of life, and in just a few moments, they had entered a state of preparation.
" Target, First Born. Let's go!"
Liu Xian shouted and led the Bei Wei Army, turning into a cloud of dust as they headed towards Changzi County.
At the same time.
In Changzi County, the Prefectural Governor's Office.
Xun Yu picked up a cup of tea that was served by a guard, narrowed his eyes and said,""General Zhang, as the commander of the Great General's Residence, actually came to Bing Province to recruit soldiers.”
"I've long heard of Mister Wen Ruo's great name.”Zhang Yang looked at Zhao Yun who was standing behind Xun Yu and asked.
"It's nothing serious!"
Xun Yu put down his teacup and said lightly," The Marquis of Anping has invited me to manage the internal affairs of Bingzhou. However, Shangdang seems to be a little desolate. There is no sign of life within a thousand miles!"”
"The commoners have fled to avoid the war. Now that we haven't recruited any soldiers, I have to return to Luoyang!”Zhang Yang said.
"Escape from the war?"
Xun Yu frowned, put down his teacup, and said lightly,""I'm afraid you've forced him to stay in the Taihang Mountains!”
" Xun Yu!" Zhang Yang stood up and shouted angrily." Xun Shuang is no longer Sikong. Do you know what you are saying?"”
"General Zilong, take down Zhang Yang!"
"A mere military commander dares to touch the foundation of the Marquis of Anping. Do you know what you are doing?”Xun Yu's tone was gentle and firm.
"Here!" Zhao Yun unsheathed her sword and pointed it at Zhang Yang's neck.
Xun Yu stood up and looked at Zhao Yun, saying in a deep voice,""General Zilong, change the flag to the Bei Wei Army's flag and open the city gates to welcome the Marquis of Anping into the city!”
"The soldiers outside?" Zhao Yun said worriedly.
"Don't worry!"
Xun Yu smiled faintly." Without Zhang Yang, they are just ordinary soldiers. They don't have the courage to go against the Marquis of Anping. They can just raise the Wei Army flag!"”
"Here!" Zhao Yun heaved a sigh of relief.
