    Huang Mingyuan and Li Jing set out from Beiping County and arrived at Jixian County on June 22. By this time, the story of Yang Guang being surrounded in Yanmen had already spread to the whole world.

    Huang Mingyuan also received the news of Dugu Lan's death in battle, and felt sad in his heart.  Dugu Lan has been under his own tent since the beginning of the Northern Expedition to the Turks, relying on his confidant. He died on the battlefield today, which can be said to be a well-deserved death.  It's just that I must avenge this hatred for Dugu Lan.

    In the past few days, Chen Yuan has been mobilizing troops and supplies for the war, and he is very busy every day.  Huang Mingyuan entered Jicheng today, and he still found time to greet Huang Mingyuan despite his busy schedule.

    Looking at Chen Yuan's exhausted face and bloodshot eyes, Huang Mingyuan couldn't help but said: "Zhong Chang, please pay attention to your health, I can't live without you."

    "Thank you for your concern, my lord."

    In the past two years, thanks to the hard work of Chen Yuan and Zhang Fangxin, Zhuojun became the only peaceful land north of the river.

    After the Yang Xuangan Rebellion, the world became increasingly chaotic and bandits were rampant.  Chen Yuan then used Zhuojun to take charge of Anle County in the north and Yuyang County in the east on the grounds of strengthening the defense of various places.  The garrisons in the two counties belonged to the General Administration of Youzhou, so Zhuo County easily merged the two counties.

    Zhuojun has eight counties under its jurisdiction, making it a rare large county.  Anle County has jurisdiction over two counties, while Yuyang County has jurisdiction over only one county.  Except for Zhuojun, the other two counties of these three counties are sparsely populated places.  However, the land of Zhuojun first received tens of thousands of troops from "Uncle's Army" and then refugees from Shanggu County.  The people in other counties in Hebei also knew that Zhuojun was stable and moved to Zhuojun one after another. As a result, the population of Zhuojun increased sharply.

    Chen Yuannai actually added six counties: Tianjin, Yutian, Sanhe (today's Sanhedong, Hebei Province), Huairou, Huichang (today's Yongqing County, Hebei Province), and Guangping, making Zhuojun a county with 17 counties under its jurisdiction, with more than 100,000 households.  super large county.

    Whenever a person is rich, others will be jealous, and this is also true for states and counties.

    The people of Zhuo County live and work in peace and contentment and live a prosperous life, which naturally attracts the covetousness of people from neighboring counties who are still in dire straits.  Ordinary people were okay, and if they couldn't, they took their whole families and fled to Zhuojun. As for some bandits, they set their sights on Zhuojun, trying to take a bite of this piece of fat.

    After Lu Mingyue, a native of Zhuojun, rebelled in Hebei, his army quickly grew to more than 100,000 people and became extremely powerful. Lu Mingyue even called himself the "Supreme King".

    Seeing that Zhuojun was rich, Lu Mingyue prepared to lead his troops to plunder Zhuojun.

    At this time, the only troops of the Youzhou Governor's Mansion were deployed in the strategic areas of Yanshan. The southern front was empty of troops, and the only troops that could be used were the training troops led by Liu Yunfang and Li Jing.

    Lu Mingyue is menacing and arrogant.  However, although there are many people in his tribe, they are mostly a mob.

    Li Jing and Liu Yunfang led their troops to set up defenses on the Juma River line. The two sides were in a stalemate for more than half a month.

    Seeing that Lu Mingyue could not attack for a long time, she felt slack.  So Li Jing found the right opportunity and selected thousands of elite soldiers from the army as cavalry to sneak across the river from the shallow water and raid Lu Mingyue's camp.  Lu Mingyue was unprepared, and the military camp was invaded by the Sui army.  The mob under Lu Mingyue's command immediately collapsed. Lu Mingyue didn't know well and immediately fled with his cronies.

    The Sui army collected prisoners and obtained 120,000 men, women, old and children, which fully enriched the population of Youzhou and Liaodong.

    At this point, the bandits from all over the country were shocked to see that Lu Mingyue, who was one of the best in Hebei Province, was defeated. No one dared to covet the wealth of Zhuo County.

    In order to guard against thieves in Hebei, Li Jing and Liu Yunfang built three new checkpoints in the dangerous terrain south of the Juma River, namely Waqiao Pass (southwest of present-day Xiongzhou City, Hebei Province) and Yijin Pass (in today's Hebei Province).  Bazhou City) and Yukou Pass (today's Dongxin'an Town, Bazhou City, Hebei Province) are considered key passes on the southern line.

    Together with Tianjin City and Tianjin Port to the east, a southern barrier was formed to block the invasion of bandits from Hebei.

    In the past two years, after continuous development, the land of Youzhou has become self-sufficient and can support more than 100,000 troops.  At the same time, a large number of craftsmen, experienced farmers, horsemen and even women were transported to Liaodong, as well as countless supplies.  The glory that Liaodong has today is not only due to the strength of Liaodong soldiers, but also to the painstaking efforts of Chen Yuan.

    Huang Mingyuan held Chen Yuan's hand, and the two entered the city together.

    Huang Mingyuan, a civil and military general in Youzhou, has entered the General Manager's Mansion. This is Huang Mingyuan's territory, and Huang Mingyuan also holds the title of General Manager of Youzhou.

    The civil and military officials in Youzhou sat down, and Huang Mingyuan began to listen to everyone's reports.  This time he marched westward with only a thousand cavalry in hand, and the main force in countering the rebellion was the Youzhou Army.

    Youzhou's army originally numbered 50,000 to 60,000 people, but Huang Mingyuan's two eastern expeditions resulted in almost all of the elite lieutenants being mobilized.  Chen Yuan tried his best to maintain the defense of Youzhou. At this time, the general administration of Youzhou had about three troops.Thousands of people.

    And the garrison in Youzhou is not only this, the bulk is still the more than 100,000 soldiers brought by Huang Mingyuan last year.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Huang Mingyuan took away 40,000 of the 150,000 government troops, and the rest of the army, because it was embarrassing and useless, was left to Liu Yunfang and Li Jing for training.

    The two are also good generals, and Li Jing is an expert in military training. In the past year, the two have continuously eliminated the old and weak and trained new recruits, training a total of more than 80,000 troops.

    It has to be said that Huang Mingyuan's foresight in controlling Lin Yi was superior.  The total number of troops in Liaodong and Youzhou was hundreds of thousands, and the imperial court was simply unable to afford it. A large part of the various expenses had to be paid for by Huang Mingyuan himself.  If Huang Mingcong hadn't shipped tens of millions of tons of rice to the north to maintain supply and demand, Huang Mingyuan would have gone bankrupt long ago.

    At this time, there were 80,000 new troops on hand, so Huang Mingyuan ordered that the 80,000 new troops be divided into four armies, namely Longxiang, Huwei, Yingyang, and Baotao, each with 20,000 troops.

    The Longxiang Army was led by Li Jing, and was assisted by Huang Mingyuan's close confidant Hu Yalang General Song Junming and the former Anle County Weihou Mo Chenxuan.

    The Huwei Army was led by Liu Yunfang, supported by Zhang Zhi, the former Pingzhou Hubenlang general, and Wang Junkuo, the Huyalang general.  Wang Junkuo was from Hedong. He was a bandit in his early years. He surrendered to Huang Mingyuan as early as the first year of Renshou. He was later transferred to Youzhou and made many military exploits, reaching the rank of General Hu Yalang.

    The Yingyang Army was led by Li Jing, assisted by Huang Mingyuan's younger brother Huyalang General Huang Mingxu and Huyalang General Lin Mo.  Huang Mingxu and Lin Mo were both generals from Fengzhou, and were later transferred to Youzhou.  Guard the frontier and use your merits to the general Huya Lang.

    The Baotao army was led by Huang Mingpu, the former general of Hu Benlang in Liaozhou, and was assisted by the former Yingzhou general of Hu Benlang, Hou Mo Chenyi, and Li Jing's younger brother, General Huyalang, Li Keshi.

    Hou Mo and Chen Yi were originally the generals of Yingzhou, and were specially transferred from Yingzhou by Huang Mingyuan.  Li Keshi was Li Jing's younger brother, who was transferred from Luoyang to Youzhou before Huang Mingyuan's three expeditions to Goguryeo.

    Huang Mingyuan originally wanted to put Li Keshi under Li Jing's command, but Li Jing was cautious and was unwilling to kill him in order to avoid suspicion. In the end, he had to exchange with Lin Mu.

    These 80,000 troops have not experienced many battles, but they are the main force in Huang Mingyuan's defeat this time.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
