Zhan Heng was woken up in his sleep.

It has just arrived at Mao hour, and it is still dark. At this time, as soldiers, many people have already gotten up, but Zhan Heng does not have the style and character of a military general. He gets up very late every day, especially after drinking the night before.

I woke up even later the next day.

Zhan Heng is a very arrogant person. He is from a royal family and has a high status. He grew up in the palace compound. In his opinion, being a soldier is just a fool, and it is something only the poor do. Of course,

As far as the Western Regions are concerned, nobles will never join the army. Only the poor will engage in such bloody and martial activities.

A general pulled Zhan Heng out of bed. Zhan Heng drank until late last night. He still smelled of alcohol and was still drunk. When he was pulled up, he suddenly became furious.

He pushed the person away and cursed angrily, "You lowly idiot, what do you want to do?"

The general who pulled Zhan Heng up was the middle-aged man who persuaded Chen Tu last night and immediately detained Chen Tu. He was pushed by Zhan Heng, but he did not move at all. He looked at Zhan Heng coldly and said through gritted teeth.

"My Lord Governor, the enemies have already been killed in front of you, you still have time to sleep soundly here."

Zhan Heng was stunned for a moment, then waved his hands and shouted loudly, "I am the governor of Xizhou, and I have tens of thousands of troops. Who dares to kill me?"

The middle-aged general glanced at Zhan Heng with extreme disappointment, shook his head and said, "Your Excellency, you can go out and see what's going on in the city now."

After that, the middle-aged general ignored Zhan Heng, turned around and walked out of the room, pulled out his sword, and shouted to the left and right, "Order all the soldiers to gather immediately, and follow me to protect the governor and break out of the city."

Zhan Heng put on his clothes and walked out of the room. Only then did he faintly hear shouts of murder coming from outside.

"Who is going to tell me what's going on?"

Zhan Heng roared loudly.

"My Lord Governor, it's Chen Tu. Chen Tu has rebelled."

The commander of the soldiers stepped forward and said.

Zhan Heng gritted his teeth and said, "Brother is right. The Han people are indeed untrustworthy. When I catch Chen Tu, I will kill him with a thousand knives to relieve the hatred in my heart."

While the two were talking, a short, fair-skinned, handsome officer came quickly. This man was Zhan Heng’s confidant and his friend of Long Yang. His name was Jing Ya. He had no skills at all. Damn.

Thanks to Zhan Heng's special hobbies and his ability to flatter others, he actually reached the high position of Chief Financial Officer of the Governor's Mansion.

Jing Ya took Zhan Heng's hand and said with panic on his face, "Sir, the enemy has entered the city. Chen Tu's troops are everywhere. Our troops stationed outside the city have also been beaten to pieces.

Moyang City can't be defended anymore, let's run away quickly."

Zhan Heng was surprised and said, "Chen Tu only has 10,000 troops. How can it be as exaggerated as you said?"

Jing Ya smiled bitterly and said, "There are enemies everywhere in the city, more than ten thousand people."

At this time, the middle-aged general returned and said in a deep voice, "Moyang City cannot be defended anymore. Chen Tu's troops stationed outside the city have entered the city. The garrison in the north of the city has been defeated. The number of enemy troops in the city should be about 20,000."

.”

Although Zhan Heng looked down on soldiers, he also knew that the middle-aged general had some skills. Hearing what he said, he suddenly panicked. At this time, 600 soldiers had already gathered. Zhan Heng just wanted to save his own life. He didn't care about anything else.

Ren Shengsheng immediately led 600 soldiers and more than 2,000 soldiers and horses in the hands of the middle-aged general, nearly 3,000 people, and broke out from the west of the city.

The war progressed extremely smoothly. There were nearly 10,000 troops stationed in the north of the city. After a slight resistance, they were completely defeated. More than 6,000 people were taken prisoner. However, there were some small episodes. An army of more than 3,000 people had strong combat effectiveness and was forcibly killed.

After breaking out of the siege, he gathered with Zhan Heng and broke out from the north of the city.

Li Cunxiao came to report, "Commander, Zhan Heng led nearly three thousand soldiers to escape from the north of the city. Do you want to pursue him?"

Li Xun thought for a while, nodded and said, "You and Yuan He will lead the five thousand cavalry in pursuit. If you can catch up, chase them. If you can't catch up, forget about it. Concentrate your forces and capture Haolan City."

"Yes, Marshal."

Li Cunxiao cupped his hands, turned and left, found Yuan He, and conveyed Li Xun's order. Then the two led 3,000 cavalry to the north of the city to pursue Zhan Heng.

Li Xun shouted loudly to the left and right, "I am ordering the whole army not to harass the people, not to burn, kill or loot. Anyone who dares to disobey will be killed without mercy."

"yes."

Everyone obeyed the order.

A normal war ends in less than an hour. Zhan Heng fled with less than 3,000 remnant soldiers. Less than 4,000 of his 20,000 troops died in battle, and the remaining 13,000 people were all killed.

took prisoners.

Xizhou Governor's Mansion.

Li Xun walked around and finally came to a dilapidated room at the back of the mansion. He looked at the two maps on the wall. One was a map of the entire Western Region, and the other was a map of the seven states in the west of Longyou.

map.

The map is quite old and has many marks on it, as well as marks left by long-term friction of the palms.

"Commander, this is the former governor of Western Province, Hammer Ezi. After Zhan Heng arrived, he only cared about pleasure, extortion, military matters, and his mood and interest. He is a complete waste."

Chen Tu whispered from the side.

Li Xun nodded. Hammer Oz was a person, but he was born at the wrong time. In his era, the Dashi Empire declined. He originally had the opportunity to become a prince. Unfortunately, the rise of the Persian Empire restrained the Dashi Empire.

With his great energy, a figure like Zhan Bai came out of the blue, shattering all his dreams.

Li Xun looked away from the map on the wall and said quietly, "How is Hammer Ozzie doing now?"

Chen Tu shook his head, "He is missing. He may have died in the chaos, or he may have fled elsewhere. After Xizhou was captured by Zhan Bai, there is no information about Hammer Oz."

Li Xun nodded. He just asked casually. Hammer Ozzie's life and death had nothing to do with him. He just felt a little sad that such a talent died like this.

Li Xun looked at Chen Tu, chuckled and said, "The people in the city are innocent, and this time I led the army here for the entire Western Region. I should use the right way to calm the people's hearts and achieve long-term peace and stability. General Chen knows my intentions."

Chen Tu chuckled and said, "I admire the commander's revenge."

Chen Tu knew Li Xun's plan and his intentions. It was the right thing to do, but he still felt a little uncomfortable.

After the army entered the city, Li Xun strictly ordered the three armies not to kill innocent people or harass the people. Li Xun's own army naturally obeyed the order, but Chen Tu's army was somewhat disobedient. Niu Jin and Zhao who were patrolling the city for public security were

Zhang killed dozens of people. For this reason, conflicts broke out between the two sides and they almost fought. Chen Tu forced it down and strictly ordered his troops to obey Li Xun's orders. Although he did so, one of his own people was killed.
