Yunxi Mansion, the command headquarters of the Second Army.
Director Chu Yue and Deputy Director Zhai Wenjing of the Intelligence Investigation Department are making a routine report to Chen Ziang in the study.
"In the province of Luyang, King Ning's son Long Jun commanded an army of 50,000 troops on the front line of Lanze Mansion to confront Xu Yong, the commander of the 20th Corps of the Jiangbei Provincial People's Army."
"So far, there have been 32 conflicts between the two sides with a scale of less than 100 people, and 11 conflicts with more than 1,000 people. I have also lost a lot of money, and I am under a lot of pressure from King Ning's subordinates."
The clear voice of Chu Yue, director of the intelligence investigation department, echoed in Chen Zi'ang's study, reporting the latest frontline intelligence.
Behind Long Jun stood King Ning, who now almost controlled most of the Hezhong Province and the entire Luyang Province.
Moreover, as a royal family, King Ning's forces are intertwined, and he can also get a lot of assistance from other places.
On the other hand, Xu Yong's 20th Corps of the People's Army was only rebuilt with the support of Governor Xu Zhenxiong, with a strength of less than 20,000 troops.
Even though Xu Yong has the support of Xu Zhenxiong, Governor of Jiangbei Province, it is still difficult to compete with King Ning.
If it weren't for the fact that both sides were court soldiers, King Ning might have launched a massive attack.
Although King Ning did not dare to open up a large-scale attack, he continued to make small moves, which put Xu Yong and the others under great pressure.
The area controlled by Xu Yong's headquarters and Xu Zhenxiong, governor of Jiangbei Province, is a buffer zone.
On that day, Chen Zi'ang deliberately set aside this buffer zone to avoid premature contact with King Ning's troops.
Because their Qinghe army still needs time to digest the occupied area, and it needs time to grow and develop. What they lack now is also time.
"Now we still need time to recuperate, so we need the Governor of Jiangbei Province to stand in front and block the pressure from King Ning." Chen Ziang rubbed his temples.
"We have secretly sent a group of officers to Xu Yong's headquarters to assist him in training the army, and allocated 100,000 gold coins to them." Deputy Director Zhai Wenjing said.
"These aids are far from enough." Chen Ziang shook his head.
Chen Ziang suddenly said: "By the way, how is the situation in Lujiang Mansion in Luyang Province?"
"General, are you referring to the soldiers and horses we stayed behind?" Chu Yue, Director of Intelligence Investigation, raised her head and asked.
"Yes, didn't we give them two flag regiments at the beginning, how are they doing now?"
When Chen Ziang and his main force withdrew from Luyang Province, they specially set up a stay-at-home envoy.
In addition to setting up left-behind envoys, the establishment of the Tenth Banner Regiment and the Eleventh Banner Regiment was also given.
Chen Zi'ang didn't expect them to play much role at first, it was just an attempt, hoping that they could make some noise and be able to contain the court.
"General, the latest information shows that their situation is not optimistic." Chu Yuexiu frowned.
"Oh, tell me."
"I also sent someone to contact them separately, but I couldn't find them."
"After many inquiries from our intelligence personnel, I heard that they were defeated by King Ning's mighty army, and thousands of people were beheaded at that time."
"The rest also fled in all directions, and they were wiped out by the local gentry and nobles and King Ning's mighty army. It is estimated that the scattered ones are also in bad luck."
After hearing the words of Intelligence Investigation Department Chu Yue, Chen Ziang couldn't help but sigh.
He had originally hoped that those who stayed behind would be able to play a role, but who knew they would fail so easily.
In fact, although most of the Qinghe Army personnel who stayed in the Lujiang Prefecture area of ??Luyang Province were strangled by the local tyrants and King Ning's mighty army, most of them died in battle, but they were not wiped out.
The left-behind envoy of Lujiang Mansion and the person in charge of the 11th Banner Regiment wanted to stick to Lujiang Mansion, which eventually led to the destruction of the city and was killed.
However, the left-behind envoys and the Tenth Banner Regiment in Wenshui County in the northern part of Lujiang Prefecture saw the situation was not good and went into the mountains.
Although King Ning's mighty army launched a series of campaigns against them, they were not completely wiped out.
Now Pang Lun, the left-behind envoy of Wenshui County, and Du Xiaoniu, a thousand-member general of the 11th Banner Regiment, hid in the mountains with only a few hundred people remaining, and they are still fighting against King Ning's mighty army.
"Although they have suffered failures, we cannot shrink back and be afraid."
Now King Ning's army is pressing down on the border of Jiangbei province, and it may rush over at any time, threatening Chen Ziang's development.
In order to prevent their controlled area from falling into war again in a short period of time, Chen Ziang decided that he still had to send someone to King Ning's Luyang Province.
"After you go back, immediately dispatch a group of capable intelligence personnel to sneak into Luyang Province, inquire about the situation of the garrisons in various places in Luyang Province, and send people to station for us again."
Although the remaining troops suffered a failure, Chen Ziang did not want to give up, but decided to send a small group of troops to harass King Ning's rear again in order to contain them.
In order to avoid repeating the same mistakes, Chen Ziang also asked the intelligence personnel from the Intelligence Investigation Department to sneak in first and take charge of the front.
"I'll arrange it when I get back."
Chu Yue, Director of the Intelligence Investigation Department, also hastily agreed.
"Have they got in touch, Commander?"
After dealing with this matter, Chen Ziang changed the subject and asked about the situation of contacting the commander-in-chief Chen Ru.
Chen Zi'ang and the others went north as part of the army to cover the main force of the commander-in-chief Chen Ru going south.
After more than a year of fighting, Chen Ziang and the others have gained a firm foothold in Jiangbei Province, and now they are eager to know the situation of the main force.
"General, we have sent three waves of personnel to the southern provinces to inquire about news, but the journey is far away. In addition, the southern provinces are the territory of the Southern Army. They have blocked and checked them tightly, and there is no news for the time being."
"You must pay attention to this matter, and get in touch with the commander as much as possible." Chen Ziang ordered.
Although the four armies of the Qinghe Army have conflicts with each other, they are still a whole.
Chen Ziang's Qinghe Army Second Corps is developing well in Jiangbei Province, but it is still difficult to support itself. It is under pressure to face King Ning, let alone compete in the world.
Once in contact with the other three legions, they will be able to serve as horns and support each other, and they will also be able to hug each other to keep warm when facing powerful enemies.
"Is there any other important news?"
"Now the imperial court has issued an edict to the powerful families in various places to form militia troops, and militia armies have been established in all provinces, and the rebel armies from all walks of life have suffered heavy losses."
"The more than 100,000 people under Zhang Zixia's rebel army were besieged by several militia troops. They were defeated in Fuyang a month ago, and Zhang Zixia's head was also sent to the capital."
"Su Chen's unit of the rebel army is now trapped in Nanchuan Province. It is in danger and will be destroyed soon."
"I heard that the wolf riders from the north invaded the Wuyuan province in the north again. More than a dozen cities fell and more than 100,000 people were taken away."
