Chapter 105: Jiangdu

Li Benshen, Guo Hu, Yang Chengzu, Li Chengdong, these old generals of Gaojie all pinched their noses and watched Mrs. Xing and Liu Yongxi go south, but for the small court of Hongguang, Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing did not take the court seriously at all when they went south this time, and even rebelled, and Liu Yongxi was still the biggest support of Empress Zhang's camp in central Zhejiang.

Therefore, Liu Yongxi had just left Xuzhou, and the imperial court had repeatedly ordered Liu Yongxi's troops to immediately withdraw to Xuzhou and go to Kaifeng and the German front, but Liu Yongxi did not take the order of the Hongguang small court as a thing at all: "This southward trip is to rescue Jiangdu, as long as Jiangdu is foolproof, I will immediately return to Guide to avenge Xingpingbo!"

Whether it is Shi Kefa and Huaiyang Governor Tian Yang, they all know that Liu Yongxi is purely lip service, and when Liu Yongxi arrives in Jiangdu, he will definitely continue to cross the river south into Zhejiang and even prepare to capture Nanjing, but after Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing merge, the total number of troops has exceeded 10,000, and they are all elites in a hundred battles, and even have red-clothed cannons to help in the battle, no one is willing to suffer for themselves.

Although no one dared to take the initiative to provoke Liu Yongxi, but Linhuai Town still took the initiative to attack and Dongpingbo Liu Zeqing had a hard battle, although both sides did not invest in the main force, but Dongpingbo Liu Zeqing still suffered a big loss, as many as 700 people were captured, and Liu Yongxi said unceremoniously afterwards: "This is the end of blocking our Linhuai Town to aid Jiangdu, who dares to stop our army from rushing to aid Jiangdu will definitely be a dead end!"

Dongpingbo Liu Zeqing felt a hundred grievances, he obviously didn't do anything, he was just going to wait for Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing to go south before copying the back road of Linhuai Town, but Linhuai Town gave him a hard blow first, but this defeat made him soberly realize that his subordinates were all a combination of guerrillas and outlaws, and their combat effectiveness was not in the same realm as Linhuai Town at all.

The more Liu Zeqing thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, just half a year ago, let alone a Linhuai Town, it was easy for him to clean up a few Linhuai Towns, but after half a year, Linhuai Town has developed to tens of thousands of elites, although he has 20,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, but now he is afraid of provoking Linhuai Town's unhappiness and forcing Liu Yongxi to fight to the death with himself.

Although there are no more than 10,000 people in Linhuai Town, and Liu Zeqing has more than 20,000 people in his hands, Liu Zeqing really doesn't dare to provoke Liu Yongxi now, he and Liu Liangzuo are both bullying the soft and afraid of the hard.

Although Liu Zeqing will definitely be able to fight with Liu Yongxi with all his capital, Liu Zeqing has been able to survive until now because of his ability to bully the soft and fear the hard, and to see the wind and steer the rudder.

He couldn't get any benefit from fighting with Liu Yongxi, so Liu Zeqing hurriedly withdrew his troops far away while crying to the court about the lawless behavior of Liu Yongxi, the son of his sincere uncle, and asked the court to deal with Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing strictly.

Although the prefectures and counties on both sides of the canal received the imperial court's order to stop Liu Yongxi from going south, they were scared to see Liu Yongxi's long line rolling along the canal for more than ten miles, as well as warships, horse teams, infantry teams, and a number of red-clothed artillery, and they were scared first, and they were not afraid to stop Linhuai Town from going south, and even provided a lot of convenience.

And Linhuai Town has been moving along both sides of the canal not once or twice, everyone knows that Liu Yongxi, the son of the sincere uncle, has money and food, and the military discipline is good, rarely disturbs the people, and even brings many opportunities to the local government, and this time Mrs. Xing took away all the money left by Gao Jie and filled nearly a hundred cargo ships, so the officials and people along the road did not panic, and came over from time to time to deal with each other, hoping to find an opportunity to make a lot of money.

From Xuzhou to Yangzhou, in addition to taking the initiative to fight a tough battle with Liu Zeqing, the journey was peaceful and smooth, and later even the Hongguang small court in Nanjing acquiesced in the fact that Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing went south together, and only urged them to return to the north as soon as possible after arriving in Jiangdu.

It's just that the imperial court also knows that Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing don't even want to stay in Xuzhou, how can they return to the battlefield of Guide, so they just hope that Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing will not take this opportunity to play the anti-flag, and even Liu Kongzhao, the sincere uncle, sent an envoy under the pressure of Emperor Hongguang and Ma Shiying: "Linhuai Town's arrival in Jiangdu is already the last bottom line of the imperial court, if it continues to mess around, the court will definitely deal with it strictly, and I hope Xi'er will know that the precipice is reined in!"

Liu Yongxi knew that Liu Kongzhao was angry at both ends now, so he naturally wouldn't make it difficult for Liu Kongzhao: "Please rest assured, father, I will return north immediately after resting in Jiangdu, and I will never go south without an order from the imperial court!"

Yangzhou is too close to Nanjing, and Liu Kongxi and Mrs. Xing's arrival in Jiangdu is already the limit of what the imperial court can tolerate, so Liu Kongzhao's envoy couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Little Chengyi Uncle does this, Old Chengyi Uncle must be very pleased!"

It's just that just after sending off Liu Kongzhao's envoy, Mrs. Xing immediately asked, "The whole army stopped at Jiangdu?" No more south? ”

Liu Yongxi immediately laughed: "Madame is thinking about going south all the way? Actually, you don't have to go south, it's no problem here in Jiangdu!"

Mrs. Xing's eyes are circulating, and Mei Guang seems to be able to swallow Liu Yongxi's whole person, after all, Liu Yongxi loves her a lot during this time, as the so-called "if you want to be pretty, you are filial", although Gao Jie's bones are not cold, but Liu Yongxi has no respect for her, the surviving person, and spoils her to the bone every day, and every time she can make Mrs. Xing's love explode, Mrs. Xing really regards Liu Yongxi as her great husband for so many days.

So now, although Liu Yongxi is just verbally teasing, Mrs. Xing can't help but want to have a good relationship with the beautiful young man in front of her.

But although Mrs. Xing's flattering light was tempting, she finally knew the priority of the matter: "Husband can go anywhere, but you have to make things clear, otherwise I really don't feel at ease!"

There are more than 11,000 people who followed Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing to the south, including almost 6,000 people from Gao Jie's old department, and the reason why they followed Mrs. Xing to the south is naturally to pin all their expectations on her, plus the dependents left behind in Jiangdu and Xing Shengping's old department, and now there are almost 10,000 people in Gao Jie's old department and his dependents gathered near Jiangdu, and Mrs. Xing naturally does not want to let these subordinates hate for life because of their mistakes.

And now Mrs. Xing's pressure is amazing, although it is said everywhere that "the sun and the moon are hanging together", but Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing's side is the real sun and moon hanging together, and major matters must be decided by Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing, if there is a dispute, the final decision can only be made after repeated battles in bed.
