    Yang Xuanting gathered Pei Hongce's defeated troops and marched all the way to Jin Yong City.  Jinyong City was built during the reign of Emperor Wei Ming of the Three Kingdoms and is the northeastern gateway of Luoyang City.  There are many soldiers and horses in the city, and the one guarding Jinyong City is Pei Renji, the general of Hu Benlang, the Youwu Guard.

    Pei Renji is brave and good at fighting, and good at riding and shooting.  Yang Xuanting had few troops and could not attack the city several times, so he chose to besiege the city and wait for the arrival of Yang Xuangan's main force.

    Yang Xuanting and Yang Jishan won consecutive battles, which greatly strengthened the power of Yang Xuangan's rebels.  At the same time, various places in Henan became more optimistic about Yang Xuangan, and there were many followers of Yang Xuangan.

    Yang Xuangan's army went west from Xingyang to Luoyang City. There were already more than 100,000 troops.

    Yang Xuangan now has more than 100,000 troops under his command. His people are high-spirited and ambitious. They are completely different from the unpredictable life and death situation a few days ago.

    Yang Xuangan stationed troops outside the Shangchun Gate (East Gate of the Tang Dynasty) in the northeast of Luoyang City, and there was an endless stream of people coming to seek refuge with him every day.  Folks in Henan Province competed to send cattle and wine to express their condolences to Yang Xuangan.

    At this time, Yang Xuangan also knew that winning people's hearts was the only way to win, so he often said to everyone in public: "I, Yang Xuangan, belong to the Shangzhu Kingdom, and my family has a lot of money. As for wealth, I have nothing to ask for. Today, regardless of the genocide, I am angrily  The purpose of raising troops is to alleviate the world's desperate situation!"

    When everyone heard this, they shouted "Hello!"

    Although the Sui Dynasty is still powerful, the people's hearts are no longer there.  Thirty years after the founding of the Sui Dynasty, although the political situation was stable before, it was obvious that the two generations of emperors Yang Jian and Yang Guang did not know what the people of the Sui Dynasty needed.  Therefore, although the father and son were outstanding in both civil and military affairs, their labor was heavy, the people's livelihood was exhausted, and the people were miserable, which finally led to the bitter consequences today.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????  The structure of vassal towns in the Tang Dynasty, the conquests of various countries in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the common people were so exploited and oppressed that they became numb and did not care who the emperor was. In those days, emperors were as numerous as dogs, and princes walked all over the streets.

    At this time, the people are still full of spirit.

    The Yang family of Hongnong is a famous family in the world.  After Yang Xuangan, the famous official, and both the lower class people and the upper class ruling class also hoped to overthrow Yang Guang, the mountain that was pressing on them, so the rebellion quickly spread south of the river.  More than a thousand people spontaneously came to seek refuge with Yang Xuangan every day.

    Yang Xuangan also knew the principle of quick victory. Although he had many soldiers, they were all a mob and could only bluff people. It was difficult to capture Luoyang City. Therefore, Yang Xuangan personally wrote a letter of divorce and ordered it to be sent to Fan Zigai.

    Fan Zigai, who received the letter of persuasion to surrender, saw that Yang Xuangan wrote in the letter that the emperor had sinned, and said, "Now that I want to abolish the dusk and establish the Ming Dynasty, I hope that I will not be constrained by small rituals, which will bring trouble to my family." He was so angry that he tore up the letter of persuasion to surrender on the spot.  He smashed it into pieces and ordered people to chop off the head of Yang Xuangan's messenger and give it to Yang Xuangan.

    Fan Zigai did not have high qualifications and was not young, but he was a tough man. He immediately ordered the defeated Pei Hongce to lead troops to fight again.

    Although Pei Hongce was afraid of Fan Zigai, he had been scared out of his wits after losing five of the five battles before, and he would not dare to leave the city again.  Pei Hongce felt that Fan Zigai was deliberately trying to trick him. Before, his 8,000 troops could not defeat Yang Xuanting, who had 3,000 men. This time, he asked him to fight Yang Xuangan, who had more than 100,000 troops. He was not deliberately trying to kill him.

    Pei Hongce firmly refused.

    Fan Zigai was about to show off his power when Pei Hongce jumped out.

    Pei Hongce was defeated in the previous battle. Although he was guilty, his crime was not worthy of death, and Fan Zigai could not kill him.  But this time Pei Hongce refused, Fan Zigai directly pushed Pei Hongce out and beheaded him, hanging on the city gate on the grounds that the enemy was in front of him and he was afraid to move forward and disturbed the morale of our army.

    Pei Hongce¡¯s head immediately shocked most of the people in the city who were ready to make a move.

    Although Fan Zigai was someone Yang Guang trusted, after all, no one in the capital was convinced by the foreign ministers who came to the capital.  Although no one dared to oppose him on the surface, secretly everyone was waiting for people to laugh at his jokes.

    Fan Zigai had followed Huang Mingyuan for a long time, but he admired Huang Mingyuan's method of killing people to establish his authority.  In Fan Zigai's opinion, the best way to establish authority is to kill people. Although he was left behind before, he could not kill courtiers, but this time he wanted to let everyone know his determination.

    After all, Fan Zigai was not Huang Mingyuan. He was good at killing courtiers, which put him under a lot of pressure. Officials in Luoyang City also talked about it.  Yang Wang, the son of the state who offered wine to the emperor, was an old minister and had always had great prestige.  After Fan Zigai killed Pei Hongce, he accused Fan Zigai of abusing punishment in front of everyone, which was a crime.

    Fan Zigai killed one person and killed ten people. Of course, he could not lose his authority at this time, so he ordered Yang Wang to be killed as well.  Yang Wang was shocked. After all, he was afraid of death.??So he bowed down to apologize, kowtowed and the blood came out.  In fact, Fan Zigai did not dare to kill Yang Wang. The other party was a third-grade official after all, but he still needed to use Yang Wang to kill chickens and scare monkeys, so he imprisoned Yang Wang.

    At this point, Fan Zigai used Pei Hongce's head and Yang Wang's imprisonment to initially establish his prestige.  All the three armies in the city were not afraid of him, and the generals did not dare to look up at him.

    At this time, Fan Zigai summoned Zhang Fangyi and others to discuss matters. He hoped that Zhang Fangyi and Hu Benlang would go to the battle together with Liu Changgong.

    Liu Changgong didn't dare to fight. He wanted to refuse at that time, but after seeing Pei Hongce's fate, he didn't dare to say anything.

    "General Liu has any objections!"

    "IIIdidn'tdidn't!"

    Liu Changgong was so frightened that he could not speak at all when faced with Fan Zigai's cold eyebrows.

    The other courtiers did not dare to speak, so they could only curse in their hearts that Fan Zigai was really a "living Cao Cao".

    Everyone was silent, but Zhang Fangyi stood up and said to Fan Zigai: "Mr. Fan, our army cannot go out to fight."

    Everyone was stunned, and Fan Zigai also had a chill on his face, but he said coldly: "Zhang Shaoyin, are you afraid today and want to refuse like Pei Hongce?"

    There was an unstoppable coldness in his words.

    But Zhang Fangyi is not afraid. He has gone from being a general manager to becoming the Henan Shaoyin he is today. Although he has Huang Mingyuan to support him, his abilities are as good as anyone's.

    "Fan Gong, today the city of Luoyang is high and deep, with many soldiers and sufficient food. However, our soldiers are poorly trained and have weak fighting power. If we hold on to the city, it can still be effective, but if we go out to fight the enemy, it will be  Defeat is inevitable. If we go out of the city to fight the enemy now, it will suit Yang Xuangan's wishes. Yang Xuangan has come all the way, and although he has gathered a ragtag group of people, they lack the weapons to attack the enemy. What he hopes most is to fight with our army in the field. "

    Fan Zigai stared at Zhang Fangyi, but Zhang Fangyi was not afraid at all.

    In the end, Fan Zigai dismissed everyone, leaving Zhang Fangyi alone.

    "Pengju (Zhang Fangyi), I don't know what you are saying. In today's current situation, from military considerations alone, it is safest to hold on to the city. But Yang Xuangan is a rebel, and Luoyang City is the eastern capital of the Sui Dynasty.  Once Yang Xuangan besieges the city for a long time, how will the people of the world view me, the Sui Dynasty! There is not much time left for us to defeat Yang Xuangan's rebels."

    After hearing this, Zhang Fangyi also felt sad, but he still said: "Fan Gong, it is precisely because Yang Xuangan's siege of Luoyang City had such a huge impact that it is even more important to hold on. After all, as the eastern capital of the Sui Dynasty, Luoyang City was in danger of being lost.  Not allowed." (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
