At the city of Weizhou, Di Qing looked at the broken city and was silent for a while before saying, "Dangxiang's defeated army fled to Lingzhou, and ordered Xie Neng to lead the cavalry to chase him. I wonder if he could catch up."

Cui Xuan, the commander of the city on the side, said: "Catching one or two hundred miles to the left and right, you can chase it as much as you can. So what if the Dangxiang people fled back to Lingzhou? The imperial army has arrived, they just died early and late! We captured the city of Weizhou in just ten days."

Di Qing sighed: "But Liu deployed there, not only captured the Xishou Military Supervisory Office, but also captured Yingli. The military leader, we have been slow since we sent troops and many of the courts were dissatisfied. According to Di reports, since Liu Ji attacked Xishou, the court officials have been talking about it."

Cui Xuan said: "What do court officials know? The 300,000 troops are concentrated all the way, and it is rare not to have any trouble!"

Di Qing shook his head: "Yes, it's rare to be orderly in an orderly manner in the 300,000 army along the way. I didn't even dare to think about this kind of thing after a decade of retreating. But now it's different. Not to mention Du Zhongcheng's consecutive battles and winning consecutive victories on Hequ Road, Xiang Wudi, even the Taiwei Han, who sent troops with us, also captured Liangzhou. Taiwei Han governed 30,000 troops, traveled 2,000 miles, broke the five states, and we only traveled more than 300 miles. The difference between them was too big, so the court officials naturally discussed it. There was no idea how much food and grass were for the 300,000 army every day, and it was difficult for the court to support it."

Cui Xuan bowed: "Taiwei, you can't calculate this way! Our 300,000 army is heading straight for Lingzhou, and Dangxiang dares not leave troops in other places at all. Taiwei Han just took advantage of the opportunity to enter. Only when our army left Tiandu Mountain and occupied Mingsha County did Dangxiang realize that it was powerful!"

Di Qing felt confused and said, "What big battles have we fought in the past two months? Forget it, it's annoying not to talk about these! Weizhou has been sent to the city, and you will take your subordinates into the city to make things happen in the city clearly. Remember, the court now does not allow military soldiers to harass the people and restrain their subordinates!"

Cui Xuan crossed his hands and said that he had been with Di Qing for more than ten years, and he would never forget his good job.

Di Qing said: "Han Taiwei has already gone to Liangzhou, and Liu Ji occupied Yingli. The court ordered Liu Ji and his army to join Han Taiwei. I went back to the village and led the army in the middle to attack Mingsha. You led the Weizhou army to sweep away the Qingyuan army and flee the city. There were no more Dangxiang troops along the way. After you occupied the cities, you left the army to guard it. When I led the army to occupy Mingsha, we will attack Lingzhou together."

Cui Xuan said: "Don't worry, Taiwei, the general will never go wrong! Now the Dangxiang army has retreated back to Lingzhou, and there is no large army outside. Since we should have made the outer cuisine refreshed. After taking Qingyuan City, the general will hand over to Huanqing Road and the army will station in Fule City."

Di Qing nodded: "Be careful about everything. No matter what, this is the first big victory since we set out. Your army will rest in Weizhou for a few days."

After finishing the order, seeing that it was getting late, Di Qing took his personal soldiers and headed straight to the village.

The first time it was to use artillery to attack the city, the troops were not used to it. It took too long to attack Weizhou, and it took ten days to take a large number of artillery to pile outside the city. In ten days, the entire city wall almost completely collapsed. At this time, Weizhou City was in chaos, and Di Qing was really not in the mood to enter.

In fact, if Dangxiang dared not go up to the city wall like Han Qi attacked Ganzhou, he would be able to capture it in one or two days. However, these troops were only trained in military academy, and had never actually fought guns and cannons, and were not familiar with them. He attacked the weak with strong, and thought of using cannons to smash the city, which took more time.

In the slashing camp, the commander Zhang Yu was in a panic. Di Qing led his troops to attack Weizhou, and the army was temporarily handed over to him. In the past few days, he was very upset by various military supplies, food and grass, and marching routes. A 200,000 army, which army went first, camped wherever it was, who was nearby, and the two armies were harmonious and not harmonious. I don’t know many things every day. When Di Qing was there, the generals were afraid of Di Qing and did not report many things. Once Di Qing left, he had everything.

When he heard that Di Qing was back, Zhang Yu brought the generals out of the gate and crossed his hands and said, "The Grand Marshal won the flag this time, and the last general congratulated me!"

Di Qing said: "Everyone is happy. Now Weizhou and Xishou have been broken, and there is no threat to come out of Huluchuan. It is time to coordinate the three armies and attack Mingsha directly. Let's go back to the commander's tent and discuss the strategy. By the way, everyone in the army will come to the commander's tent."

Zhang Yuying sent his personal soldiers to recall the generals who were dealing with affairs nearby and discuss military and political affairs together.

After entering the general's tent, Di Qing said, "Along the Hexi Road to the west, Han Taiwei has led his troops to occupy Liangzhou, and the road to this place has been opened. Liu Ji led his troops to occupy Yingli and seized Guojiadu. In the future, the military resources needed by Han Taiwei's troops can be transported from Zhenrong Army. Now that the two armies meet, it is time to destroy Dangxiang. Because there are Weizhou and Xishou, the troops in front are not moving fast, so they should work hard in the future."

Zhang Yu said: "The Taiwei, from Zhenrong Army, it has been more than 300 miles from the Zhenrong Army, so it is not easy to transport materials."

Di Qing said in a deep voice: "No matter how difficult it is, it is always enough to send 30,000 troops to transport it! This time, there are no shortage of mules, horses, camels, and carts in the army. The rivers and valleys are very flat. My army of more than 200,000 troops can still make the soldiers on the front line short of supplies?"

Seeing Di Qing unhappy, Zhang Yu bowed: "What the Taiwei said is that the general is too much."

Di Qing said: "This time the imperial court sent more than 300,000 troops to attack Lingzhou in the north, and was determined to destroy Dangxiang. Since sending troops, the rear supplies were transported to whatever they wanted, and there was never a shortage. The Taiwei Han from the west, more than 30,000 troops rushed to more than 2,000 miles and headed straight to the bank of the Yellow River. Remember, the imperial court has invested a lot this time and cannot tolerate any negligence! In Hulu River, 300,000 troops were crowded together and could not be carried out. Every day, for the camp, for which army is well eaten, and the army is poor, there is constant dispute. After Hulu River, the army is unfolding, so there is no longer such chaos!"

Seeing Di Qing's serious expression and bad expression, the generals hurriedly bowed to him.

Di Qing said again: "From this place to Mingsha for more than 100 miles, General Zhang and I led 30,000 troops to arrive first and arrived in two days. The army temporarily returned to Yang Sui and Lu Zheng to manage together. All military affairs must be negotiated and agreed before they can be implemented!"

All the generals said yes, but no one dared to speak more.

Looking at everyone, Di Qing said, "Our army of 300,000 has been set off for more than two months since the Zhenrong Army. It has been a great victory in defeating Xishou and Weizhou in a row. However, the Han Taiwei in the west has broken Liangzhou, and the land west of Dangxiang Helan Mountain has been lost, and the army has been retracted to Xingling and the two states. The next battle will not be easy, especially in Lingzhou, where Dangxiang has been operating for many years and has a large army. It is said that most of the artillery cast by Dangxiang in recent years is in Lingzhou. If this is the case, we must wait until the heavy artillery is transported before we dare to say that the city will be attacked."

Speaking of this, Di Qing's expression became more and more serious: "Mingsha City, it is not difficult to attack Lingzhou, the most difficult thing is Lingzhou! In the next days, military orders will be given, and those who dare to violate the orders will be killed! Who dares to delay the battle in Lingzhou? My sword is not eye-catching!"

After hearing this, the generals couldn't help but tremble and crossed their hands together to claim that it was.

Di Qing stood up, looked at the generals, and said, "You will go back and prepare. People will not remove their armor, and horses will not untied their saddles. Wait for military orders!"

When the generals left, Zhang Yu whispered to Di Qing: "Taiwei, why force everyone under the new victory?"

Di Qing sighed: "According to news from the capital, since Liu Ji defeated Xishou, the court officials have discussed it many times, thinking that we left the Rong army to go too slowly. Another Taiwei Han defeated Liangzhou. Compared with the two, many people are dissatisfied with us. If we continue to procrastinate like this, alas--"

Zhang Yu said: "Now, he uses guns and cannons to fight. He has only a lot of courage, but he cannot go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. There are indeed many changes in the army. But now that Weizhou is broken, there is always a big victory. If you take advantage of the victory, what else will others say?"

Di Qing nodded and said to Yang Sui and Lu Zheng on the side: "Zhang Yu and I will take 30,000 troops first to attack Mingsha. You two lead the remaining troops and horses and follow along the river valley. If you have more than 100,000 troops, it is not easy to march, be cautious in everything!"
