Chapter Seventy-Four: Strength

Because Empress Zhang and Jin'er were staring at her, Liu Yongxi was naturally very polite to Mrs. Xing: "Sister Xing, didn't you deliberately send General Xing to escort Zhang Niangniang to the south, just to support His Royal Highness King Fu?" ”

When it came to Xing Shengping, Mrs. Xing was so angry that she stomped her feet, she never thought that as soon as she walked on the front foot, her clan brother would join forces with Liu Yongxi to stage such a big show, and even forgot to notify herself in advance.

But stomping and stomping, Xing Shengping is his own brother after all, so he informed himself before Lu Jiude arrived, if Xing Shengping didn't fight for reason, I'm afraid Liu Zeqing would have snatched the position of the first merit: "Uncle Sincerity said it too well, that's really the case!" Shengping did a good job this time, and I want to take a lot of credit for him! ”

Liu Yongxi has to make inches: "Now that Zhang Niangniang has no available guards and horses, can General Xing's team take on the mission of protecting Zhang Niangniang first?" As long as it takes two or three months, it will definitely be completed afterwards! ”

Although he was a little worried that Liu Yongxi was borrowed by Liu Bei from Jingzhou, Mrs. Xing decided to agree after weighing the benefits and disadvantages: "It is his honor for Shengping to serve Niangniang and our couple, this must be no problem!" ”

Gao Jie has 30,000 soldiers and 9,000 elite cavalry, Xing Shengping is not only his own brother, but also the soldiers under his command are all members of the Gao family's army, and he is not afraid that Xing Shengping's army will break out of the control of the Gao family's army.

Moreover, there is a guard and horse belonging to the Gao family army by Empress Zhang's side, which is naturally the first to get the moon near the water, which will be very beneficial to Gao Jie and Mrs. Xing.

Mrs. Xing didn't know until now that Liu Yongxi and Xing Shengping had reached an agreement on the transfer of people, and the 500 people under Xing Shengping were not all of Gao's team now, and Chen Yuan was not even prepared to go back to Xing Shengping's side after being included in Liu Yongxi's command, otherwise he would not easily agree to lend Xing Shengping's troops to Empress Zhang and Liu Yongxi.

It's just that Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing haven't finished talking yet, and Liu Zeqing has already said angrily: "As long as Gao Yingwu is not ranked first, it is no problem for me Liu Zeqing's name to be placed anywhere!" ”

Hearing Liu Zeqing say this, Gao Jie had the bottom: "I don't care where Liu Zeqing's name is, anyway, I must rank first among the marshals of Jiangbei!" ”

It's just that although Gao Jie finally ranked first among the marshals of Jiangbei, his position was not only behind Liu Yongxi, but even under Tong Yili, and Shi Chaoli and Xing Shengping also got a name on the letter to be a hero who can make a decision.

Shi Chaoli felt that this was a beautiful thing for the glory of the sect, and he was naturally grateful to Empress Zhang and even cried: "Weichen doesn't know how to repay the kindness of the mother......

Although Tong Yili couldn't enter the courtroom, he wrote the first draft of "Nandu Record" overnight: "Fuwang horn scarf is half dirty, hand-cranked white bamboo fan, there is an ancient imperial style, and the Virgin Mary knows that it is the lord of Zhongxing, so the three chapters of the law, Jinshi Tong Yishi entered Zhongxing three strategies in the imperial boat, and His Royal Highness was overjoyed......"

And Empress Zhang's letter was sent overnight to the eunuch Han Zanzhou in Nanjing, although everyone knows that there will definitely be some waves in Nanjing, but King Fu's succession to the unification is already a foregone conclusion.

In addition to His Royal Highness King Fu himself, the biggest beneficiaries of this matter are Empress Yi'an Zhang on the imperial boat, Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang, Lu Zhenfei, the governor of Huaiyang, and the four marshals of Jiangbei are now all heroes of the decision, and Liu Yongxi, a small group, actually benefited the most.

For Liu Yongxi, the sincere uncle, everyone used to call him "little sincerity", but now everyone removes the word "small" and calls him "sincerity".

Although everyone knows that Liu Yongxi will inherit Liu Kongzhao's sincerity earl sooner or later, since Liu Kongzhao is still the commander of Caojiang Chengyi, Liu Yongxi can only be a "little sincerity uncle".

But today, since Liu Yongxi has made such a great contribution and is an out-and-out hero of the decision, maybe the "Sincerity Uncle's Mansion" will become the "Sincerity Hou Mansion" or even the "Chengguo Mansion", and everyone will naturally change their words to "Sincerity Uncle".

But the most important change for Liu Yongxi is to take this opportunity to vigorously expand the strength, Xing Shengping's department was originally only 500 people, but now there are almost 900 people, Gao Jie and Mrs. Xing also took the initiative to send a group of soldiers and military funds, and Liu Yongxi's own battalion of men and horses has also expanded from more than 400 to nearly 800 people.

The world is turbulent, there are countless displaced people between Jianghuai, Lu Zhenfei sent Liu Yongxi enough money and food for five thousand people for three months for the first time, and then played the banner of the queen's pro-army, recruiting new soldiers is not a problem at all, and even has a choice for the first time.

Liu Yongxi not only demanded that these "Huai'an soldiers" be strong but also loyal and reliable, and that they absolutely not be indiscriminately replenished.

Although in addition to replenishing a large number of new soldiers, the overall combat strength and quality have declined, but the total number of the two battalions has reached 16,700 people, plus the naval division commanded by Zhou Zhisheng, it can already be called a "Jianghuai strong force."

Although Liu Yongxi's troops and horses were rushed to the army, but now among the Jiangbei armies, only Gao Jie and Huang Degong are the elite of a hundred battles, and Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing are just a combination of outlaws and rabble.

If Liu Yongxi's biggest flaw before was his weak strength, as long as Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo were ruthless enough to gather thousands of people to attack, Liu Yongxi would not be able to find a way to deal with it, but now there are a total of 2,000 people on land and water, and they are completely fighting with Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo.

And Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo are already the main field groups of the imperial court in Jiangbei, since they can fight with them, the soldiers and horses under Liu Yongxi can definitely be called the "Jianghuai Force".

Of course, the biggest problem is to rush into the army, compared with the "Huai'an soldiers" who have just enlisted in the army, whether it is "Cangzhou soldiers", "Shandong soldiers", and "Linqing soldiers", they have now become the core backbone and have even been promoted to petty officers, but these "Cangzhou soldiers", "Shandong soldiers", and "Linqing soldiers" have at most only experienced one or two battles with less than a month of military experience, and even the "Beijing battalion soldiers" with the oldest qualifications are also new recruits in a certain sense.

But Liu Yongxi knew very well that this was not a big problem at all, although the time was still very short, but the battle of Nandu had come to an end, and he would have at least two or three months to train this army according to his own intentions.

Of course, Xing Shengping's independence is very strong, and he will maintain his independence for a long time, but considering the snowy night terror and the earth-shattering waves that followed, Liu Yongxi felt that Xing Shengping's independence was a matter of course.

It's just that he hasn't figured out how to contact the Sincerity Bofu to decide on the next move, and Shi Chaoli has already leaked the heavenly secret to him: "His Royal Highness King Fu means that Niangniang's guards and horses are temporarily staying in Jiangbei." ”
