    The entire West Route Army war has come to an end.  At this time, Huang Mingyuan had time to pay attention to the battle situation of Zheng Yanqing and Chen Yuan's troops.

    The Turks launched a massive attack on the Sui Dynasty, and after the Sui army sounded the clarion call for counterattack, Yang Jian ordered Han Wang Yang Liang to be the marching marshal of the East Route Army, and sent troops to Shuozhou (governing Shanyang, today's Shuo County, Shanxi Province) together with Shangzhu Guoshi Long Live to join forces with the Right Route Army.  Jin Wang Yang Guang and Shangshu Right Servant She Yang Su jointly attacked Bujia Khan.

    Yang Liang was still staying in Bingzhou and did not dare to leave lightly, so he ordered his deputy commander Shi Wansui to lead Shuozhou general Han Hong, Zhuguo Zhang Dinghe, general Li Yaowang, marching general Yang Yichen, Yuzhou governor Liu Long and other troops to go out.  Heng'an Town, Shuozhou, prepared to face the Turkic army.

    At this time, various states were also recruiting soldiers on a large scale. King Yang Liang of Han Dynasty ordered all the troops to gather in Heng'an Town and stand by. Zheng Yanqing's troops were also transferred to the front line of Shuozhou by King Yang Liang of Han Dynasty.  However, unlike Huang Mingyuan, who had a comfortable life in Lingzhou, Zheng Yanqing, who had just arrived, had a difficult time in Shuozhou.

    Zheng Yanqing does not have the support of Prince Jin and his son like Huang Mingyuan.

    "Although Zheng Yanqing was famous for his military exploits and fame, he came from a humble background, so everyone did not think highly of him. There were countless people who made sarcastic remarks, ridiculed and ridiculed him.  Zheng Yanqing also relied on going around the Monan Grassland and earning some military exploits to suppress some generals who were against him.  Then, relying on Huangfu Wei's help, Zheng Yanqing gradually took control of Jinhe's personnel and financial power, and promoted many low-born generals.  With the support of these trusted generals, he was able to barely control the Jinhe Army.

    But these are not enough to support Zheng Yanqing's status, at least not to make many high-ranking people take him seriously.

    And even before Zheng Yanqing arrived in Heng'an Town, many people already regarded him as a thorn in their side and wanted to get rid of him.

    It was widely spread that Zheng Yanqing led 300 Sui cavalry to attack the Turkic Yinshan Corps, so Zheng Yanqing's popularity in Shuozhou was not low.  But the Shuozhou Army's bad luck began exactly when Huang Mingyuan defeated Lan Khan, the capital, and Zheng Yanqing was Huang Mingyuan's first general when he defeated the Turks.  It can be said that Zheng Yanqing became a cavalry general and became famous all over the world because he stepped on the face of Shuozhou Army. How could he not be hated by Shuozhou Army.

    When Huang Mingyuan left Yinshan in the north, his troops were so tight that he did not transfer Chen Yuan's troops back from Shengzhou, just to give Zheng Yanqing some support at the critical moment and prevent Zheng Yanqing from being tricked by the Hedong armies.

    After Han Hong, the general manager of Shuozhou, cleaned up the Shuozhou Army, a large number of Shuozhou Army generals from the Zhao Zhongqing era were suppressed and purged, and the top generals were almost replaced. As a result, the Shuozhou Army's morale was weakened and its combat effectiveness declined.  The appearance of Zheng Yanqing provided a channel for the Shuozhou Army officers and soldiers to vent their grievances, so Han Hong was also happy to see the Shuozhou Army sharing the same hatred.

    "And Zheng Yanqing's personality is not as sharp as Huang Mingyuan's.  Although he was born a slave and hated evil, he was always cautious because of his background.  Although he usually has a low-key personality, he is considered weak by many people and looks down upon by many people.

    The Jinhe Army, including Yunzhong Town, only has more than 3,000 people, and it is just south of Dajin Mountain, facing the Turks, and is in the first position to bear the brunt. It is the hometown of Yunzhong County that fought against the Xiongnu in the pre-Qin and Western Han Dynasties. It has been a grassland since ancient times.  The nomadic peoples and the Central Plains dynasties were at war with each other and consumed this important area.  It is not appropriate for Yang Liang to transfer Zheng Yanqing to lead the main force to Shuozhou.

    But Yang Liang is the coach of the East Route Army after all, and Yu Juluo will not go around Yang Liang for a mere Zheng Yanqing.  Therefore, after receiving Yang Liang's order, Zheng Yanqing had no choice but to lead 1,200 infantry and 800 cavalry, a total of 2,000 people, to gather in Heng'an Town, Shuozhou.  And this has taken away all the cavalry and most of the infantry of the Jinhe Cheqi Mansion.

    After arriving at Heng'an Town, Zheng Yanqing found that it had become a large arsenal, and troops from all over the east of the river were arriving.  Zheng Yanqing originally thought that he was not from the Hedong clan, and had no contact with them, so he did not need to get involved in their affairs, but should keep a low profile and wait for the war to begin. However, he did not expect that on the first day, someone would be preparing  Attacked him.

    Zheng Yanqing took a detour and entered Heng'an Town from the south. At this time, various armies were arriving one after another, and there was a lot of traffic at the city gate.

    When they arrived at Heng'an City, the Jinhe Army applied to enter the city, but the clerk in charge of the inspection at the city gate was very arrogant. Seeing that the opponent was a fifth-grade cavalry general, he didn't even raise his eyes, turned his head and glanced at Zheng Yanqing, and then  He lost interest and said "just wait" impatiently, and said nothing more.

    Zheng Yanqing waited for a whole afternoon, and became a little anxious when he saw that the troops behind them had entered the city first.  There are rules for when each of these ministries will arrive, and it's already getting late and the city gate is about to close, so why should they be allowed to sleep outside the city overnight?

      Zheng Yanqing knew that someone might be deliberately trying to embarrass him, so he had to patiently go find the clerk at the city gate. The clerk was chatting with some rogue. He didn't even finish listening to Zheng Yanqing's words, so he waved his hand to let him go.  Zheng Yanqing left.

    Zheng Yanqing shouted several times, and the clerk became angry and scolded: "You are blind, you didn't see that this place is busy."

    Looking at the other party's appearance, Zheng Yanqing also became angry. Did thousands of soldiers who fought bloody battles rush all the way to Datong just to be humiliated by you?  So they started arguing with each other.

    This little official didn¡¯t expect that Zheng Yanqing would dare to turn against him, and shouted at Zheng Yanqing, ¡°Don¡¯t even think about entering the city today.¡±

    Seeing that the situation was also at a stalemate, Huangfu Wei advised Zheng Yanqing that the King of Hell was so troubled by the little devil that there was no need to lose face by arguing with the little official.

    Huangfu only gave 50,000 yuan to the minor officials and threatened the army not to enter the city. If things get serious, I don't know what these soldiers will do.  If the quarrel goes to Shangzhu Guoshi Long Live, it will be difficult for the soldiers and the petty officials may not have good fruits.

    This little official was also afraid that things would get serious. Besides, he got money and it didn't break the rules, so he let the Jinhe Army enter the city.

    Zheng Yanqing was a little indignant about this, but in the end he had no choice but to do anything.

    After entering the city, Zheng Yanqing was prepared to be made things difficult for him. After all, Zheng Yanqing also knew about his embarrassing identity, and what happened at the city gate had a huge impact on him, making him wary of the entire Heng'an Town.

    But to Zheng Yanqing's expectation, although the armies in Hedong made many sarcastic remarks to him, they actually did not embarrass him much.  As for the problems such as the dilapidated barracks, the moldy and rotten food and grass supplies, and the insufficient supply of weapons and horses, Zheng Yanqing had already expected it. This was not only the Jinhe Army, but also happened to many troops, so Zheng Yanqing did not do anything about it.  angry.

    But Zheng Yanqing knew very well that these things were trivial and could not be brought to the fore. They were just actions of low-level generals out of spite and could not hurt him.  If someone really wanted to touch him, it would probably be much more serious than this.

    After all, there is no peace in Hengan Town.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
