This war came suddenly and went away suddenly! It really came and went in a hurry; four days, just four days! But the various problems and consequences caused by this war are enough to make people like Yan Ze'an's brain knotted.
But one thing is certain—the death knell of the Great Xia Kingdom has officially been sounded! And Anyang will certainly gain countless benefits in this war to suppress the rebellion.
In addition, the Kong family's performance in the war fully revealed their ambitions.
In this war, apart from the Li family, no one else went out, including the eldest prince. It seemed that everyone wanted to see the Great Xia country fall apart, and then they could go to war on their own!
After the war, Xu Ren immediately sent a flying vehicle to inform Li Yulong and Li Liang; and the message to Li Liang also brought a plan of Xu Ren.
The aircraft will first go to Li Liang, then to Li Yulong; finally, it will carry Song Xing and others to the west to report to Li Xian.
After the aircraft took off, Xu Ren sent a normal messenger to report the victory to the imperial capital - this is called a "formal report". Xu Ren's work is flawless, so that others can't find any obvious problems! Also sent to the imperial capital were Shi Chengsong, the governor of Zhongshan County, who had awakened but "completely destroyed his cultivation", and Ye Mingquan, the minister of the Honglu Temple of the State of Cai.
After returning to Anyang City Lord's Mansion, Xu Ren and Yan Ze'an decided to bypass Xia Qingqing and immediately march south to directly confront or intercept the Nanyang army, that is, the Kong family's forces, that were dawdling in the rear of Zhongshan County.
This time, it was no longer about suppressing a rebellion, but rather had some flavor of a warlord war, so Xia Qingqing was not notified.
At the same time, Xu Ren and Yan Ze'an jointly filled out two blank imperial edicts. The first one was sent to Nanyang County, ordering the Kong family to withdraw from Zhongshan County immediately. Li Xian, the governor of the East of Daxia, had quelled the rebellion and no longer needed your Kong family.
The second imperial edict was sent to Zhao Youdan of Luliang County, to immediately dispatch soldiers to the south to defend Nanyang County and Dongyuan County as much as possible; at the same time, to clear the fields and evacuate all the people to the north of Luliang County as much as possible. Xu Ren knew very well that with Anyang's current strength, it was impossible to occupy all of Luliang County and Zhongshan County alone; if that was the case, they had to compete for population.
After doing all this, Xu Rencai sent Beichen Yuqing to Dongyuan County in the south to negotiate with the Yuan family.
In addition, in order to get the Yuan family to "cooperate", Xu Ren ordered the three ironclad ships to continue sailing southwards to show off their power at the seaside of Dongyuan County! For this purpose, a large number of spiritual stones were specially added to the three ironclad ships; these spiritual stones were consumed in the battle and recharged. Beichen Yuqing sailed south on the ironclad ship!
Turning back, Yan Ze'an has already started to restore all things in Anyang, including funerals, rewards, post-war reconstruction, and overtime work in the factory. Everything is so complicated that Xu Ren is helpless with these details; fortunately, there is Yan Ze'an! Yan Ze'an is very familiar with handling these things, which makes Xu Ren amazed.
Despite his busy schedule, Yan Ze'an has not even forgotten the 13 merchants who died in Luliang County. He also made generous compensation to their families and issued hero medals.
