But now the situation has changed, and the two sides have fought like this, and the peace treaty has become a waste of paper. There are still more than 10,000 people in this army, stationed in the second government, and the strength is still there.

Although the attention of the Great General's Mansion is focused on the north, it is not surprising that Sun Jiaji, who has "nothing to do" recently, has moved his brain to the Qing troops in Taiwan and Wen.

Li Ruhai originally did not react, the main reason was that he did not want to disobey Wu Zheng's order, for Li Ruhai, from a small county to catch the head to today's commander from the deputy capital of Wupin, Li Ruhai is already quite satisfied.

But this time is really different, King Wu is trapped in Huai'an, if there is really a difference, the General's Mansion will fall apart, except for Wu Zheng, who can pinch the forces under the General's Mansion together?

Let's not talk about my own group of descendants who followed Wu Zheng from Shining Town, let's just say that Zhang Guowei, Qian Sule, Xiong Danglin, these old ministers of the former dynasty, who can hold them down? Not to mention the forces of all parties that were gathered later, such as Li Guo who is now in Guangxin Mansion, how can he lie in favor of others under his original loyalty camp?

Therefore, Li Ruhai had a huge sense of crisis, so he agreed to Sun Jiaji's "unreliable" tactical suggestion - to attack Taiwan and Wen Erzhou.

The reason why it is said to be "unreliable" is not that it is unreliable in strategy, but because it refers to excuses and troops.

Jinhuawei's predecessor was Lihaiwei, the original full number of 20,000 people, which was already the largest establishment of the four guards, and the rest of the guards only had 10,000 people, but because Lihaiwei was the old foundation of Wu Zheng's family, and the important position of Lihai, so the establishment was particularly large.

However, as Wu Zheng continued to expand his territory to the north, the importance of Lihai gradually decreased, so after the failure of Duoduo to launch the Shaoxing Campaign, the establishment of each guard was expanded at the same time, and it could be reorganized into Lihaiwei of Jinhuawei, which was still 20,000 people.

Now that Chen Sheng has taken away 5,000 people, in the hands of Li Ruhai, there are only 15,000 people when they are full, and this also includes about 3,000 recruits who were replenished before the war.

As a garrison, it is bound to be impossible for the whole army to leave the garrison, after all, there are still enemy troops in Taiwan and Wenzhou, and if you are not careful, Lao Wei will be in danger, and the gains will outweigh the losses.

In other words, Li Ruhai can cooperate with the maximum number of troops dispatched, and it cannot exceed 8,000 people.

And Sun Jiaji's state guard, the same is the case, 20,000 establishments, forty percent of them are recruits who were replenished not long ago, ordinary battles or defending the city, training and training are also OK, but this kind of tough battle, the recruits are almost all together.

Sun Jiaji can only produce 10,000 people at most, which is already the limit of the second guard.

Then, in fact, the two guards together are only 18,000 people, which is not much different from the Qing army in Taiwan and Wen.

Everyone knows that when the number of troops is the same, the defenders always take advantage of the big advantage, and it is very difficult to take advantage of the chaos to recover the second province in a very short time, which is the first "unreliable".

The second "unreliable" is the excuse that needs to be found.

Of course, it is not an excuse to explain to the Qing court, but to explain to the general's palace, after all, there is no explicit order to lift the ban of the previous king of Wu.

And Sun Jiaji's excuse is too ...... Rough, he sent a team a few days ago to quietly enter the Wenzhou boundary along the waterway from Qingtian and catch two "tongues" back. Then he declared that the Qing army "blatantly" crossed the border, and when King Wu was trapped in Huai'an, he intended to get involved in Qingtian.

This excuse is really rough, and everyone knows that the Qing army in Taiwan and Wenzhou is now taking care of itself, and you must know that since the previous armistice between the Yixing Dynasty and the Qing court, for two long years, how could these more than 10,000 Qing troops dare to move in the slightest under the firm clamp of the two guards of Chuzhou and Jinhua?

There is only one way for them to supply, one is to transport from the south of Fujian, and the other is to supply from the sea, but it is a pity that the naval division of the Qing court has not been formed for a long time, and there is no ability to go south to supply, and the Qing army can only buy from local merchants, which is really buying, and the Qing army in these two provinces has an unprecedented "strict military discipline".

In fact, they were afraid of the Northern Expeditionary Army almost every day, so how could they dare to bully and rob the local people? For fear that this would give the Northern Expeditionary Army an excuse to attack.

Therefore, Sun Jiaji's excuse is too rough, and he can't even be deceived by Li Ruhai, let alone deceive experienced people like Zhang Guowei and Xiong Rulin?

But Sun Jiaji's explanation of Li Ruhai is, excuses, since it is an excuse, this does not need to be demonstrated, otherwise is it still called an excuse, it is called a fact! Since the enemy army has "come to attack", then the state guard has the responsibility of protecting the territory and the people, and Jinhuawei learned that the friendly army was attacked, how could he not save it?

In a word, the reason why the two of them sent troops without the consent of King Wu and even the general's mansion was made up, completely bypassing all laws.

And this statement "persuaded" the hesitant Li Ruhai.

In fact, "persuasion" and "excuse" are both excuses, and the most real reason is that these two people have itchy hands, and seeing that the troops that account for half of the strength of the Northern Expeditionary Army are fighting fiercely in the north, how can they still sit still, and if they don't take the opportunity to do something and make some contributions, how can they be calm?

You know, the second guard's refitting ended three months ago, and hundreds of new guns with a shiny glow are idle there, can you be willing?

So, the day after the two parted, a battle between Taiwan and Wen suddenly broke out.

There is a way, pulling a hair and moving the whole body, Wu Zheng, got a bad head.

However, many things, or many historical progresses, are precisely changed by such casual people and events.

……。

Let's talk about Guangxinwei.

Li Guo and Gao Yigong are also not idle.

In fact, Guangxinwei is almost under the jurisdiction of the General's Mansion, and the only existence that is "independent".

Of course, after the military reform, all officers above the battalion level came from the Jiangnan Military Academy, which was an iron law that could not be shaken.

But in addition to the army, Li Guo and Gao Yigong have other prefectures and incomparable powers, such as taxation, the taxes of Guangxin and Raozhou, which must be handed over to the general's mansion in name, but in fact, it is also nominal. For example, although the local officials in the counties under the jurisdiction of the government were nominally appointed by the General's Office, in fact, they were all nominated by Li Guo and Gao Yigong in the past two years, and the General's Office never rejected them once.

This is a privilege given to them by Wu Zheng, not that Wu Zheng wants to connive at the appearance of a mountain under the jurisdiction of the General's Mansion.

In fact, the second government is located in Jiangxi, and the staggering of enemies and friends is one of the reasons, but the real reason is the xenophobia of the former loyal battalion soldiers, in fact, they all know in their hearts that the loyal battalion soldiers are basically from the west and north, and they have strong concerns about sending people under the fence in their hearts. As a result, the demobilized soldiers and their families of the loyal battalions who had been arranged in the workshops in Hangzhou, Songjiang, and Wusong kept returning to Guangxin and begging Li Guo to take them in.

As a result, Wu Zhengcai made an exception and gave Li Guo their privileges, which was almost equivalent to the autonomy of the two prefectures.
