    Huang Mingyuan received the news of the Jinyang Incident after he occupied Qingyuan City.

    At noon on the 28th, three hours after Yang Liang¡¯s army left Qingyuan City, Sui army pioneer Dugu Lan arrived at Qingyuan City.  The Han rebels who stayed in Qingyuan County immediately surrendered without a fight and handed over Qingyuan City to the Sui army.

    After Dugu Lan learned about the Jinyang Incident, he had no time to report to Huang Mingyuan, so he made a prompt decision and led his troops to Jinyang City in an attempt to reinforce Doulu Yu.  Yang Liang left three hours earlier than him, and Dugu Lan was confident that he could catch up with him.  Once he blocks Yang Liang's troops outside Jinyang City, with the weak combat power of Yang Liang's rebel army, he is afraid that they will surrender immediately without a fight.

    In fact, this is indeed the case. As long as Fan Dou, Lu Yu and others can hold on for an hour or two, Dugu Lan's cavalry arrives. Yang Liang only has 20,000 weak soldiers and horses under his command, and he is simply unable to fight.

    Dugu Lan accelerated his advance, but unfortunately, less than ten miles away from Jinyang City, a scout came to report that the Han Dynasty rebels had entered the city.

    Dugu Lan saw that Jinyang City had been lost, and he had only cavalry under his command, unable to attack the city, so he had no choice but to retreat to Qingyuan City.

    After Dugu Lan returned to Jinyang City, Huang Mingyuan had led the main force into Qingyuan City.

    Huang Mingyuan was shocked when he heard that Doulu Yu in the city couldn't even last three hours.  Huang Mingyuan fell into deep thought when he heard that Han King Yang Liang had almost effortlessly asked the defenders in Jinyang City to open the city gate and let him in.

    Han Wang Yang Liang will undoubtedly be defeated, but how to better capture Jinyang City is still a very important matter.  Especially when Dou Luyu's original talents have been lost.

    Jinyang City can be said to be the first fortified city north of the river. It is an important place that has controlled Monan since the Qin and Han Dynasties.  After the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, it was managed by three kings, Yang Guang, Yang Jun, and Yang Liang. It has high walls and strong walls, and is surrounded by the Fen River. It can be said that it is an easy-to-defend but difficult-to-attack place.  There are hundreds of thousands of residents in Jinyang City. With Yang Liang's prestige, he can instantly draw tens of thousands of people to his use. In addition, Yang Liang has 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers and millions of stones of grain. Yang Liang can hold on for a long time.  years and above.

    Of course Huang Mingyuan cannot spend a year here with Yang Liang.

    Huang Mingyuan was thinking about how to attack Jinyang City. At this time, Dugu Lan hurriedly came to Huang Ming's military tent and reported: "General Manager, according to the report from the scouts I sent, after Yang Liang returned to Jinyang, he killed all the rebellious generals.  Killed. Kaifu Yi and his third commander, Panshi Hou Su Qinwu, Kaifu Yi and his third commander, Yuwen Yongchang, and others all died in battle. The former Sima Huangfudan of the Bing Prefecture Governor was killed by Yang Liang, and the chariot and cavalry general An Chenghou Yuan Shiya and Han Wang  Kuzhi chief Sun Hengbu and more than ten people were all beheaded on Yang Liang's order. Doulu Yu, the chief clerk of the Han Dynasty who led the Jinyang rebellion, committed suicide and his body was quartered on Yang Liang's order."

    Huang Mingyuan frowned and asked, "Who did you just talk about? Changsun Hengbu? Which Changsun Hengbu?"

    Dugu Lan knew about the relationship between Huang Mingyuan and Changsun Sheng, so he said with an ugly face: "It is Changsun Hengbu, the eldest son of Changsun Duhu. He is only twenty-seven years old this year."

    After a while, Huang Mingyuan said: "It did not disgrace his father. At least he proved his loyalty with his death and did not cause trouble to his father."

    It is a pity that Changsun Hengbu happened. Among Changsun Sheng's sons, the second son Changsun Heng'an was mediocre, the third son Changsun Anye was a rogue, and Changsun Wuji was greedy for power. Only the eldest son Changsun Hengbu had the style of being a father. He died today.  , very regrettable.

    Huang Mingyuan was not too upset about this matter. He looked at the map and summoned the generals again to discuss the matter.

    It was already evening, and the generals had dinner and were ready to rest.  These days, the generals have been eating and sleeping in the open air, working non-stop. This is the first time they have entered the city for repairs since the city was closed, and it is a rare feeling of comfort.

    After Huang Mingyuan summoned the generals to enter the account, he ordered all ministries to immediately send troops northward, heading straight to Jinyang City.

    The generals were all puzzled. At this time, the King of Han had already fled back to Jinyang, like a mouse trapped in a rice vat, unable to crawl out.  The counter-rebellion army has been marching all night these days and is exhausted. It would be better to recuperate for a day and then head north again, which would be more stable.

    However, the generals did not dare to disobey Huang Mingyuan's order.  At this time, Huang Mingyuan had completely established his authority in the army and no longer did anything to establish his authority. However, the generals were frightened by Huang Mingyuan's fierceness and did not dare to disobey in the slightest.

    The generals marched all night according to the order.  There is a distance of thirty miles from Qingyuan City to Jinyang City, and this night was another arduous march.

    However, the officers and soldiers were still relatively stable. Although they had some complaints, following Huang Mingyuan, they won battles, were promoted to high positions, and captured. Everyone gained a lot, so they didn't care about this little hard work.

    Everyone marched for more than an hour and finally arrived ten miles south of Jinyang City.  Huang Mingyuan looked far through the night. At this timeYangcheng is looming in the vast night and is already in sight.

    Huang Mingyuan ordered Duan Wenzhen, Xue Shixiong, and Cui Peng to march quietly from the two wings to surround Jinyang City in the east, north, and west directions. He also ordered Dugu Lan to lead the cavalry to patrol through the four gates of Jinyang City.  Huang Mingyuan led the remaining troops to surround the south of Jinyang City.

    Huang Mingyuan asked all armies to spread flags and tents around Jinyang City, creating a scene of thousands of troops and horses.  He also ordered the armies not to attack the city, but to hold on to the camp, and at the same time organized the Han rebels in the city to break out.

    "My lord's strategy of spreading a net on all sides, I'm afraid Yang Liang will be scared out of his wits if he sees it tomorrow morning."

    Huang Mingyuan said with a smile: "This last battle is just to build some momentum, use a bluff, fish in troubled waters, and scare Yang Liang into surrendering as soon as possible."

    Chen Yuan asked: "Master, do you think Yang Liang will surrender?"

    Huang Mingyuan raised his eyebrows and asked: "He doesn't want to surrender, but what can he do if he doesn't surrender? In the past few battles, Yang Liang has long been discouraged and has no courage to fight at all, even if he is holding Jinyang City now  He won't even beg for this golden rice bowl. Our army surrounded Jinyang overnight, wouldn't Yang Liang feel scared? Now if we just make Yang Liang more desperate, he will be bound obediently."

    "My lord's name!"

    Chen Yuan suddenly asked: "Master, what do you think the emperor is going to do with Yang Liang?"

    "What does Mr. Zhong mean by this?"

    "If Yang Liang arrives in Chang'an, the emperor will be in trouble"

    Huang Mingyuan directly stretched out his hand to stop Chen Yuan's words, and then said: "Zhong Chang, let's stop it. These days, many people have signaled to me, either overtly or covertly, but I will never dirty my hands. Yang Liang will definitely do it.  There is no doubt that he will be sent to Chang'an alive."

    After hearing this, Chen Yuan bowed his head to the ground and said, "My lord said this, and Chief Zhong is relieved."

    Huang Mingyuan said in a long voice: "Zhongchang, I will not do something I don't want to do in order to gain the emperor's favor. And this kind of thing cannot be done, it cannot be done!" (Remember this site's website address:  www.hlnovel.com
