Madam, She Has a Tender Heart

By the time Mu Congke got the news, Lü Bocheng had already left with his men before dawn. Read М

Mu Qionghua was secretly teased by her sisters who got the news. She was too embarrassed to see anyone and locked herself in her room.

In order to appease Lü Bocheng, Mu Congke picked a general who had lost his wife and arranged Mu Qionghua's marriage.

When Lü Bocheng returned to the camp, he had a fever and runny nose. He lay down for several days before he recovered.

That night, after he jumped out of the window, he soaked in cold water for two or three hours before the drug effect was relieved.

When the people were more awake, they immediately led their men out of Jincheng.

Later, Mu Congke invited him several times, but Lü Bocheng refused to accept the invitation. He just stayed in the camp to train his troops.

After a few days, Lü Bocheng got the news that Wen Gongren and his son in Yandi were at odds with each other, and Yandi was in turmoil. Mu Congke was secretly thinking of leading his troops to attack to avenge the shame of Wen Gongren and his men rebelling in Jindi.

Before, Mu Congke helped Yan to repel the attack of Liang Dynasty, but it was just a matter of life and death. Helping Yan was also helping Jin.

But he had never vented his anger.

Now that Wen Gongren had killed himself, he had to vent his hatred and anger.

After hearing the news, Lu Bocheng did not want to give up this opportunity.

He had been thinking about what to do.

If his 10,000-man army could not stand on its own and could only rely on others, then he would have to act according to others' wishes.

The south had its own forces and territories, and they were all developing and strengthening themselves, with no intention of competing with Liang Dynasty.

Among the major forces in the north, the two largest forces were Jin and Yan. He wanted to avenge the Fengxiang Army, so he could only choose the powerful ones.

But he had a rift with Jin now, and Yan, after Wen Gongren proclaimed himself the King of Yan, also became arrogant and wanted to learn from Wu and Shu to become emperor.

Now Wen Gongren has built a palace in Dale Mountain and selected many beauties to live in it. Wen Gongren was enjoying himself with a group of beauties in the harem in Dale Mountain, while at the same time he ordered Taoist priests to make elixirs in order to achieve immortality.

He, Lü Bocheng, was stupid to surrender to him.

It is said that some of Wen Gongren's sons were disgusted with his behavior and opposed him. Wen Guangshou, his beloved son whom he regarded as his successor, committed adultery with his concubine Luo, which made Wen Gongren very angry.

After beating him, Wen Gongren severed the father-son relationship and expelled Wen Guangshou.

Now it is heard that Wen Guangshou led troops to attack Youzhou, probably wanting to take advantage of his father Wen Gongren still enjoying himself in Dale Mountain and the city's lax defense to seize Yan land.

Mu Congke would not let go of this news. He naturally wanted to have a share of the pie.

Dog bites dog, snipe and clam fight, then he, Mu Congke, plans to be the fisherman who benefits.

And Lü Bocheng would not let go of this news.

First, he wanted to train his troops. Second, a general with a city and a stronghold was very different from a general without a city or a source of income.

He now wanted to seize a city and use it as a base. In this way, he would have a source of military supplies and could also bring his wife and son to his side.

Lü Bocheng discussed with a group of generals in the army for several days and nights and worked out a detailed battle plan.

He began to quietly march towards Yan.

On the way, he learned that Wen Guangshou had led his army into Youzhou and then sent troops to attack Dale Mountain, and King Wen Gongren of Yan had been captured.

The King of Yan was captured alive and imprisoned by his own son, and Yan changed its master.

Wen Guangshou took his father's position and then proclaimed himself emperor in Youzhou, calling himself the Emperor of Great Yan and changing the reign to Yingtian.

Wen Gongren's other sons were naturally dissatisfied, and each of them raised a big flag to compete with Wen Guangshou for territory.

Yan State was in chaos.

Mu Congke saw that Yan State was in chaos, and then led the army of Jin to attack many places in Yan.

When Lü Bocheng got the news, he discussed with his generals and turned to Zhaozhou.

He had led his army to support Luzhou before, and was very familiar with Luzhou and Zhaozhou next door.

Lü Bocheng avoided the Jin army and focused on Zhaozhou.

It took less than ten days to capture Zhaozhou.

He took advantage of the fact that Jizhou next door was not well prepared and Yan was in chaos, and Lü Bocheng captured Yizhou. In one month, he took the land of two states in Yan.

Weizhou, Caozhou, and Xuzhou of the Liang Dynasty next door sat on the mountain and watched the tigers fight. Lü Bocheng successfully launched a sneak attack and caught the Liang Dynasty off guard.

First, he used 10,000 elite troops to seize two states in Yan, and then seized three states in Liang. Lü Bocheng had five states in his hands at once.

The morale of the army was greatly boosted.

On the other side, Mu Congke led the Jin army into Yan territory from Qigou Pass, and the states of Chan, Zhuo, Wu, and Shun surrendered upon hearing the news.

Wen Guangshou had been emperor for only a few days. He had several brothers attacking him from time to time, and Mu Congke's army besieged the city from outside, and he was suffering from both sides.

Wen Guangshou was besieged for a long time and was defeated repeatedly. Not long after, he could not resist and surrendered to the Liang Dynasty.

The Liang Dynasty had always wanted to recover the northern territory. Before, it sent an army of 100,000 to attack Yan, but was repelled by the Jin-Yan coalition. Now Yan sent a letter and was willing to be a younger brother. Liang Dynasty was overjoyed to get Yan without any effort.

Now Yan was divided, and Jin was the only largest force left in the north. Liang Dynasty would naturally not let Jin become bigger.

And Lu Bocheng, who suddenly appeared and seized the three states of Liang Dynasty, was naturally unbearable for Liang Dynasty.

But now he had no time to care about him. Lu Bocheng was not yet a force to be reckoned with, and Liang Dynasty did not take him seriously. Let's leave it alone first, and deal with Jin first and then deal with him.

In early June, Wu Quanzhong personally led an army of 500,000 from Luoyang to support Yan.

He planned to adopt the strategy of "encircling Wei to save Zhao" and first attack Zaoqiang and Xinxian in Jin to ease the crisis in Yan.

The army rushed to attack day and night. Due to the small size of the city, Zaoqiang was quickly captured.

Wu Quanzhong was overjoyed.

But before he could be happy, hundreds of Jin cavalry raided the military camp and almost burned the tents and food. Liang Jun was cut off from food and grass, and for a while, his military morale was devastated.

Taking advantage of the disheartenment of the Liang Dynasty army, Jin launched a rapid offensive and almost annihilated Wen Guangshou's army.

The morale of the Jin army was greatly boosted.

Because the offensive was too fierce, Liang Chao could not resist it. And because Wu Quanzhong was old and frail, he was already sick, and just to vent his bad breath, the bumps on the road during the march aggravated his condition.

He has only been emperor for two years, and he doesn't want to die early. So he decided to gather his army and retreat to Luoyang first.

At this point, Yan was annexed by Jin.

Taking advantage of the fierce battle between the two big men, Lu Bocheng led his troops all the way south and captured the two states of Yan and Liang Dynasty. After that, Lu Bocheng had nearly 100,000 troops.

In July, Mu Congke fell seriously ill and died. The eldest son Mu Youxian took over and became the new king of Jin.

Lu Bocheng led others to express condolences. He took three million taels of silver from Mu Youxian and ceded Zhaozhou and Yizhou in the original Yan region to Jin.

Lu Bocheng gathered the army and headed south.

The land of Yan was destroyed, Mu Congke of Jin died, and Wu Quanzhong's army was defeated and returned to Luoyang to rest.

The big bosses from all parties who got the news were ready to take action.

When Emperor Wu Yang Bi saw that an unknown boy had captured several states in northern Jiangsu, he was not angry and went all the way to the east to conquer. Seeing that Ma Mingwen had been silent for more than a year, he frequently provoked him.

Ma Mingwen has no ambitions, but he is not a vegetarian.

Yang Bi wanted to fight for Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and Yue Di was next to Wudi. Ma Mingwen naturally didn't want Yang Bi to become big, otherwise Yue Di would be swallowed up by Yang Bi at any time.

Ma Mingwen also started to prepare for the battle.
