Thinking of Mrs. Xing, a great beauty, Yu Zhijie felt that he couldn't miss this rare opportunity.

When he first entered the city, his team was only 500 people, but now through recruiting troops and horses and containing the rest of Gao Jie, there are various small means, his headquarters has reached thousands of people, plus at least 17800 people in each battalion under his command, and has become the mainstay of Yangzhou City and the general soldier Liu Zhaoji's department and He Gang's Zhongguan battalion, and Shi Kefa also temporarily added him the title of chief soldier.

Although there are more and more Qing troops outside the city, Yu Zhijie's team not only did not disperse, but also showed signs of getting stronger and stronger, which made Yu Zhijie feel more and more that this was a godsend and must not be missed.

And the Zhongguan battalion to which He Gang, the chief soldier in the city, belonged to Liu Zhaoji, originally felt that the strength was weak and it was hopeless to defend the city, but with Yu Zhijie, more than 1,000 soldiers and the batch of food and salary he sent were also a shot in the arm, and the three families together seemed to have the possibility of creating a miracle.

It's just that Yu Zhijie doesn't know that the reason why his battalion head did not fall apart, but was trained in the war was completely the result of Liu Yongxi's training in Jiangdu for several months, and Li Xiangjun was still the first to take the lead in this matter, and it was not Yu Zhijie's turn at all, it was Li Xiangjun's propaganda that made the officers and soldiers of the whole battalion full of infinite hatred for Jianyu, and every time they fought, they were desperate, but most of the outposts of the Qing army were new annexes with weak combat effectiveness.

Not to mention that the weapons and equipment at the head of his battalion were the result of Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing's best efforts, but Yu Zhijie took all of this as his own credit.

Now he thought to himself: "If this defense battle in Yangzhou is completely won, how can I get the position of an earl?" I don't know what knighthood the imperial court will give me at that time, by the way, since Liu Liangzuo, the uncle of Guangchang, has already surrendered, maybe he will give me this position, and there is ......"

He thought lightly: "It's best if Xiao Chengyi and Mrs. Xing don't come to help, I will defend this Yangzhou City alone, and then I will be the second Zuo Liangyu!"

He didn't know why Bolo, outside the city, didn't attack, just waited for the arrival of the red-coated cannon.

And for Wang Sunfan, who is thousands of miles away, he now knows what it means to have ups and downs in life.

After Yuan Jixian was coerced by Zuo Liangyu, he soon became the new governor of Jiangxi and was ready to take office, becoming another governor of the Ming Dynasty.

However, he had just arrived in Hangzhou and had not been able to take office, and a decree from the imperial court had caught up, not only announcing that he was no longer the new governor of Jiangxi, but also that he was reduced to the people.

Although the court found a lot of reasons, Wang Sunfan knew that the problem should lie with Liu Kongzhao and Liu Yongxi's father and son, and most of them were dissatisfied with the father and son but took out their anger.

But this alone knows how turbid the government is, after all, he is also a decision-making hero, and although he has a connection with Empress Zhang, he has always supported Emperor Hongguang, but he was cut to the people, I am afraid that the current court has become a court of Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng.

Therefore, after he took over the will, he asked left and right: "Do you want to go to Quzhou to take office?" ”

He asked not "Jiangxi", but "Quzhou", and a group of Xiongxian and Jining people around him all said in unison: "Xianggong has not come to this point with great difficulty, how can he not take office?" This is not His Majesty's holy decree, but a chaotic fate, and the problem now is that Xianggong is not going to meet Zhang Niangniang!"

These people around him have followed Wang Sunfan for many years, and Wang Sunfan can be said to be a relationship of both glory and loss, Wang Sunfan can be the governor of Jiangxi, then they can enjoy glory, wealth and amazing power, but Wang Sunfan can't be the governor of Jiangxi or even cut his post to the people, then their ending will be more tragic than anyone else!

Therefore, they not only suggested that Wang Sunfan go to Jiangxi to take office, but also went to Jinhua to meet Empress Zhang, although this may make a complete reversal between central Zhejiang and Nandu, but these people feel that this risk is worth taking!

In fact, Wang Sunfan also meant the same, but he still felt that he had to be more reserved: "Let's go to see Niangniang like this, we have to bring some gifts!"

When he was making excuses for himself, he heard a trot outside the news: "Zhang Niangniang is here to send a message from Jinhua, Wang Sunfan has made a meritorious contribution in escorting in Nandu, hurry up and go to Jinhua to see the driver!"

Although this is still the territory under the rule of Emperor Hongguang, Empress Zhang's influence in Hangzhou is quite large, so it was only a few hours after the Jinyi Wei from Nanjing passed the holy decree, and Empress Zhang's envoy rushed to Hangzhou, so Wang Sunfan also made up his mind: "Since it is the mother who is invited, Wang naturally wants to go to Jinhua to escort!"

He felt that no matter what Nanjing meant, he, the governor of Jiangxi, must take office!

And Liu Yongxi is now finally relieved, although the Qing army may chase the river at any time, but the entire Linhuai Town has crossed the Yangtze River from Yizhen with the help of Liu Kongzhao's Jiang Shui Division!

As long as you cross the Yangtze River, everything will make a difference, Mrs. Xing next to her suddenly cried for some reason, Ma Huangcai can only comfort this daughter-in-law who suddenly appeared: "Daughter-in-law, don't cry, it's a good thing to be able to cross the river!"

Madame Xing finally stopped her tears, but she knew that the reason why she cried was because she and Gao Jie had failed to lead the army across the river by all means.

Liu Kongzhao of the Golden Sword Horse was not angry and arrogant, although he personally led the Jiangshui Division to take over Liu Yongxi's troops over the river, but there was a feeling of hating iron and not steel: "Yongxi, you are so unoptimistic about the imperial court? You can obviously make a big difference in Yangzhou, but you are running away, in case the court is investigated, your father doesn't know how to explain to the court!"

Liu Yongxi smiled bitterly: "Father, Guangchang Bo Liu Liangzuo has already surrendered to thieves, when I crossed the river, Li Benshen, Li Chengdong, Guo Hu and others have already surrendered, and even the Chinese army Bu Congshan of the Shi Pavilion Department has already surrendered, wouldn't it be a dead end for me to stay in Yangzhou!"

And Mrs. Xing next to her quickly wiped away her tears and said: "Daddy, don't complain about Yongxi about this matter, it's the daughter-in-law who feels that she can't support it, so she asked Yongxi to bring people across the river!"

Liu Kongzhao had heard of this daughter-in-law who almost fell from the sky before, and also knew that she was thirty years old this year and even had a seven-year-old son, but now she is really a little uncomfortable, after all, although he is already thinking about Liu Yongxi's life events, but the status and strength of this daughter-in-law are really not low, and no matter how she looks at it, she is only twenty-five or sixteen, so as soon as Mrs. Xing opened her mouth like this, Liu Kongzhao didn't know to communicate with this daughter-in-law.

But the more Ma Huangcai looked at Mrs. Xing, the more he liked it: "This is our family's Liu Yongxi, since you can't support it, you have to cross the river as soon as possible, Yongxi, what are your plans next?" ”

Liu Yongxi had already thought about everything: "I went to Zhejiang to join Zhang Niangniang, but I don't know if my father is willing to go to Zhejiang Central with me?" ”
