"In order to pass on the story, the two ancestors of the Ming Dynasty were founded, and the Emperor Lizong inherited in an orderly manner, and the sea was stable. However, in recent years, eunuchs have been in power, blocking the holy hearing, blinding the way of speech, and it is difficult to stretch the righteousness of the court. It was the Liaodong slaves and thieves who advocated the rebellion, and the Shaanxi Liukou was a disaster. As a result, my great son was martyred in Beijing, and the heavens and the earth changed. Now the whole situation is in danger, and it is embattled. The slaves and thieves stole the capital and swept the land of Hebei, and the land of Yanyun has fallen into the hands of the fishy. Liukou crossed Xi'an, Mu monkey and crowned, and the elite soldiers and horses in Shaanxi and Gansu fell into the hands of thieves. Between the north of Jiangsu, the south of the Jiangsu, and the south of the Yangtze River, there are soldiers and horses who are good at threatening, slaughtering the soldiers and people, and the poison spreads all over the prefectures and counties, staying inside and outside the capital, and there is no way to cry, and the people's grievances have shown a raging trend. This is the fault of the second and third princes of the court. Over the past few years, the corruption of this generation has been a great situation, and the crimes are difficult to count, and today, it is the empress dowager and the emperor wants to seek a peaceful and prosperous honor, and the Ming billions of people want to seek a way of life but do not see it. If the princes of the Gai Dynasty do not change their ways for a day, the trapped soldiers of the people will die of hunger and hunger, how can tens of thousands of people die every day? Liangyu and the others can't bear to have scum in the universe, how dare they sit back and watch the danger of public opinion and not save it? I would like to lead the whole army into Beijing, and the prince will bitterly show the benefits and harms, the ancestors and gods, and learn from the real formula. Tears boarded the boat, died and arrived, and I would like to play on my behalf. ”

This document drafted by Hou Fangyu on behalf of Zuo Liangyu was released a few days later than his troops set off for Nanjing. The purpose is very simple, that is, to compete with the troops of the East and West Li families.

Hou Fangyu's trick is actually very simple, to put it bluntly, it is to take advantage of a time difference. It is important to know that large-scale troop mobilization and mobilization will take time to be deployed. On weekdays, troops are scattered and stationed in various places, and they can only be concentrated in one place when there is a need. But this process takes time. With the kind of world beacon of the United States imperialism that said that it would fight whoever it wanted, and after fighting the earth and fighting aliens, it took half a year to deal with Saddam Hussein in Iraq before the troops were mobilized in place, and the bomb fell on the city of Baghdad.

The higher the level of technical equipment and the more modern the army, the more so. Why? With more equipment and more equipment, and a large dependence on road transportation, your space requirements are high, and the requirements for time will inevitably go up.

Today, Zuo Liangyu's military posture is somewhat similar to the Chahar Anti-Japanese Allied Army in 1933, with the Japanese Kwantung Army in front and the Central Army of the Nanjing government in the back. Zuo Liangyu faced his old rival Li Zicheng's Dashun army to the west, and to the east was the Nanyue army of Li Shouhan, the Duke of Liang Guogong of the Ming Dynasty.

(Phew!) Zuo Liangyu is a bullshit thing! Also worthy of being compared with the Chahar Anti-Japanese Allied Army? The Allied forces successively recovered Duolun, Baochang and other places from the Japanese invaders, and drove the Japanese devils out of Chahar Province. The result? By the cooperation of the Japanese devils and the Nanjing Nationalist Government, political disintegration, military pressure, and finally many soldiers of the Anti-Japanese Allied Army did not die on the battlefield to resist the invaders, but fell under the guns of the Central Army sent by the Nanjing Nationalist Government. Oh, by the way, it seems that it was also supported by the Japanese army, which sent planes and troops to help. There is a version that the Japanese devils even borrowed the flag of the Central Army to pass through the so-called demilitarized zone. Hehe, this is also one of the great diplomatic achievements of the Nationalist Government in the golden decade, cooperating with the aggressor to destroy the armed forces that resist the aggression. However, this Guan Division Commander has a descendant Ji Qiu Chengzu Ze, you cooperated with the devil to kill your country's anti-Japanese armed forces, naturally, under your granddaughter, there will also be a volume that can accommodate golf. ）

The Dashun Army and the Nanyue Army were the same, not to mention that the soldiers and horses were scattered and stationed everywhere, and both had a large number of heavy equipment and heavy food and salaries that needed to be transported, and it took time for the soldiers and horses to assemble and mobilize and march. However, Zuo Liangyu, a warlord armed like a bandit, is different. On weekdays, his army is gathered like locusts, no matter what impact you will have on the local state and county. As long as you want to go, just pull your legs and go. As for whether he will eat the prefecture and county where he is stationed like a desert, it is not something that Zuo Dashuai considers. It's a big deal to set a fire in the camp before leaving, and then kill the woman who stole it, and everyone goes to the next place to continue robbing.

Hou Fangyu said that it was not as good as going down the east of the river to the south of Zuo Liangyu's army and crossing the river to the north. As soon as his post came out, there was a sense of response from all directions. In various cities along the way, the Donglin Party members have dispatched, not to say that they are eating pot pulp to welcome the king's division, at least to raise grain and grass, and apportioning military salaries to comfort this "our own army." ”

Moreover, Zuo Liangyu's army took action before Li Zicheng's army launched an attack, which undoubtedly caught Li Zicheng and Li Shouhan by surprise. By the time the people in the camp of the Xiaogu Mountain Masters in Anqing found out that the situation was wrong and sent a fast boat down the river to investigate, tens of thousands of horses from the left army had already crossed the mouth of the lake, which was famous for Shizhong Mountain, and the vanguard arrived in Pengze County, and quickly controlled Madang! Outpost rangers have appeared in the Chizhou area.

When Hao Shaoqi, Yuan Zongdi and others found out that the situation was not right, and waved their troops to pounce on Jiujiang, this city, which had been frightened for a long time under the threat of Zuo Liangyu's army, finally let go of its courage and opened its doors to welcome the Dashun army into the city.

The camp of the Left Army outside the city, the camp that stretched for dozens of miles in the past, was set on fire by the Left Army when it was withdrawn and burned to a white ground. The burnt grain, the baggage that can't be taken away, smells of burnt paste in the air. Outside the camp, the heads, skins, intestines, and lungs of cows and donkeys, as well as the corpses of people, were everywhere. The women who had been looted searched among the ashes with sticks to see if there was anything that could come in handy and allow them to struggle to survive in this troubled world.

"Donkey balls! It is said that Lao Tzu is a thief, and when Lao Tzu was a thief, his appearance was not as ugly as theirs! Hao Shaoqi scolded immediately.

"Brother Flag Waver, stop scolding, let's think about what to do!" Yuan Zongdi was thoughtful on the side.

"What to do, I'll take someone to kill him. You are here to comfort the people, to surrender the city, and to write an inscription for Your Majesty! Hao Shaoqi grinned, stroked his beard like a steel needle and smiled.

Not to mention that Hao Shaoqi was like a dog chasing a rabbit, driving Zuo Liangyu's army all the way east, receiving the county towns along the way. Constantly cutting meat like a knife, cutting a piece of soldiers and horses from the left army brigade, surrounding and eating them, and then looking at the young adults who were coerced into joining the army, Hao Shaoqi clicked his lips, and secretly calculated how many good things these people could exchange for from the merchants of Nanzhong. However, the military situation of the left army's eastward march along the river and Hou Fangyu's eastward march to the Jianghuai Shimin to complain about the grievances made our general, Li Shouhan, the Duke of Liang, furious.

"We have so many spies, so many dark stakes are all dry food?! People's brigades are almost under the nose of your sailors, and they are crawling the boat by touching your guns, and you have just found out!? What to eat! ”

Grandpa Guo was furious, and naturally his subordinates were terrified.

The soldiers and the heads of the intelligence departments such as the business intelligence room, and even Li Huamei and Shi Lang, who happened to be at the meeting, knelt in the courtyard in silence and waited for the fate of their father.

Originally, Shi Lang led six gunboats from Shanghai County to Nanjing, preparing to meet his father. After receiving the opportunity to resign, he led the six gunboats and a battalion of naval divisions and land battalions to the direction of Anqing, and joined forces with the naval divisions there to carry out the task of blockading the river. But I didn't want to, but I was scolded by my father like a storm for no reason.

"What kind of thing is he Zuo Liangyu, he can't fight a war, he will harm the people, and he is a first-class good hand in the world to loot the state and county. is such a good thing, and he actually licks his face and says that he is asking for the people's life and avenging the grievances of all the people in Jiangbei! You're stupid to be a rabbit, aren't you?! What a big purple face! ”

Li Shouhan was also really angry. Hou Fangyu's escape document under the guise of avenging the grievances of the people of Jianghuai was spread by the Donglin Party at the speed of infectious diseases, and it was immediately applauded all over the south of the Yangtze River.

In anger, naturally there will be no good words. Even if Li Huamei is known as the Scarlet Winged Tiger, she is used to killing on the battlefield, and she already has a child with Shi Lang, and she can't help but blush a little when she hears a series of foul words from her father's mouth.

"Father, pay attention to the decency." She quietly reminded Li Shouhan when she was changing tea for Li Shouhan, which made Li Shouhan stop reprimanding.

"Let every man go about his own business. If you let Zuo Liangyu's rabbit master come to Nanjing, Lao Tzu will personally bring people up! ”

Grandpa Guo made such cruel words, and immediately asked the soldiers of the military department, the business information room, and the investigation room to be busy. Efforts should be made to intercept Zuo Liangyu's army, which claims to be one million people, and at least four or five hundred thousand people in the military department and the investigation room, to the west of Anqing.

But there is no one-way street.

"Miss! Woe to you! The military secretary and several directors of the investigation room and the business intelligence room had solemn faces.

Li Huamei knew that these people didn't dare to go directly to see Li Shouhan, but they came to look for themselves, for no more than two reasons, one was related to the sailor. Second, the stakes are high. They can't afford it.

Sure enough, Zuo Liangyujun got the help of the local gentry in Madang and other places, collected dozens of merchant ships of all sizes, and robbed more than ten large and small ships on the river, and a full fifty or sixty ships were lined up on the river, which also had the feeling of covering the sky and the sun.

"The left thieves broke through the fortification of our naval division in Anqing with these ships and came east."

"Why don't you open fire to intercept?!" Li Huamei was also a little angry, could it be that the life in Jiangnan was too comfortable, so that these people in the inland water division forgot the means of interception?

"These ships were disguised as merchant ships, and there was no flag of the Left Army, so at first everyone thought that it was just a merchant fleet, but they didn't want them to hide their soldiers in the cabin, and the large fleet of ships broke through."

Hiding in the cabin to evade inspection is not a new tactic. Li Hongzhang set out from Anqing to lead his troops to Shanghai, which was such a means of operation. As for the brigade of vehicles breaking through, it is not a new thing, and there are still heavy trucks breaking through in order to escape high-speed tolls?

"County Lord." Shi Lang was calm and stopped Li Huamei, who was about to have a seizure, "Something has happened to Hengzhu, and it's useless to get angry." I'll go to the dock and go west at once. As long as there are more than three ships, they will be checked immediately, and those who dare to disagree will be sunk on the spot! Don't let Zuo Rabbit's shrimp soldiers and crabs disturb his father! ”

The matter is urgent, and Li Huamei can't care about the words of the rabbit master in Shi Lang's words. Just nod your head and say, "Be careful on the road." ”

Not to mention how Li Huamei and the others went to tell Li Shouhan about the military situation of the former enemy, let's just talk about Shi Lang's westward fleet. He ordered people to check the situation of the gunpowder, cannons, rockets, and other objects he carried, and ordered the accompanying naval division and land battalion to rest in shifts, and the personnel on duty to prepare for battle. As soon as the affairs were settled, Shi Lang's fleet had already passed through Wujiang Town.

Twisting the oil lamp, Shi Lang took out the text written by Hou Fangyu, he wanted to see how this famous genius Hou Gongzi reversed black and white, smeared his father's face, and splashed dirty water on his body.

"Between the north of Jiangsu, the south of the Jiangsu, the south of the Yangtze River, there are soldiers and horses who are good at threatening, slaughtering the soldiers and the people, and the poison spreads all over the prefectures and counties, staying inside and outside the capital, crying and complaining, and the people's grievances have been raging. This is the fault of the second and third princes. Seeing these words, Shi Lang couldn't help but have a cruel smile on his face, "Sure enough, the fox's tail was exposed!" My wife and brother fought hard to kill the enemy's horse leather shroud for the sake of the Daming Jiangshan Society, why didn't this group of thieves mention a word? ”

He was so angry that he couldn't help but slap the table hard, shaking the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, oil lamp, and teapot on the table. "I can't blame others for this matter, I can only blame my father! In the past few years, Te's heart has been soft! If it were like Damu in Nanyang, this group of thieves and birds couldn't hold back their urine when they saw the Li family, and their pants were wet, they wouldn't be so bad! Or is it that as soon as Beijing falls, he will immediately ascend the throne in Nanjing and claim the throne, in the name of righteousness and righteousness, this group of dog thieves is afraid that they will not come to us immediately? ! There's so much trouble out there! ”

After slandering for a while, Shi Lang still made up his mind, this westward march was an opportunity for him to make meritorious contributions again in front of his father. Even more than the previous trip to the sea to find the Hawaiian Islands!

"Kill! Kill him personally on his back, and he is afraid in his dreams, so come and reason with him again! Looking at the foggy river outside the porthole, Shi Lang's heart settled down a lot. That Wu Xing was criticized in Shandong, saying that he had made several mass graves to kill people, and today Lao Tzu will use blood to dye the water of the Yangtze River red! ”

Hou Fangyu scolded Wu Xing and others for slaughtering good people in Shandong, northern Jiangsu, and even Jianghuai in Shandong, and Shi Lang also said that he would follow Wu Xing's example and use the thunderbolt to suppress Zuo Liangyu's rebellion.

So, what is the situation in northern Jiangsu, southern Lunan, and even between Jianghuai?

Let's take a clip and take a look.

Although the winter has not yet passed, the warm sunshine is still sprinkled on the streets of Xiaoheji, which has just experienced the war. Although there are still ruins, and although blood can still be seen on some walls, the streets have begun to bustle with joy. This is not surprising, because just now Xiaoheji held a public trial meeting, and a group of evil officials and gentry were collectively corrected, people were cut in two by guillotines, and their bodies were thrown into a big pit, and a group of slaves and lackeys were also killed and exiled. Most of the gold and silver immovable property of the offenders was confiscated by He Fengshan, and the grain and cloth were distributed to the poor people. The people who had benefited from it rushed to tell each other, and at the same time, they also needed to exchange their surplus food and cloth for other supplies. So the Xiaoheji was noisy, and the lively atmosphere was not inferior to the New Year's Fair.

Song Qiaomei and He Fengshan, who were the initiators, did not mix in this lively scene, they asked people to buy a little wine and meat, and then took these things to a small courtyard in the town. The courtyard is not large, and traces of war can still be seen, but there are already people cleaning it, and it has become very clean and tidy. He Fengshan was not polite, he directly pushed open the half-hidden wooden door, and shouted when he entered the hospital: "Godfather, godmother, Qiaomei and I have come to see you!" ”

As soon as the words fell, two old men put down the work in their hands and greeted them with a smile, which were the old couple who had shown them the way before. The old lady looked at the things in He Fengshan's hand, pretended to be unhappy and said, "Fengshan, you are just going to see your godmother, and now your godmother is not a few days ago." You have forgotten that at the public trial meeting, the government gave us a credit for the two of us, and gave us a set of small courtyards and five hundred silver dollars, a donkey, an ox, and a pair of plough sticks, and the old man and I became big overnight. Before this, we had never seen a single Tongbao, and now there are a lot of heavy silver dollars. I'm still thinking, the two of us have no children and no daughters, this money, just give it to the two of you, we, we have a cow to farm, we don't have to worry about eating and drinking in the future, we can also raise a chicken and a pig or something, if you want to eat meat in the future, come to your godmother. But when you came to see me and brought so many things, it's your fault. ”

Song Qiaomei smiled and said, "Godmother, the juniors come to see the elders, how can you not bring things." If you come empty-handed, your godson is also a general, and it won't make people laugh. Besides, you and your godfather have made great contributions, and we, as government officials, should send you some thank-you gifts. The aunt also smiled when she heard it: "Or Qiaomei can speak, before this, I still never dreamed that I am a poor old woman, just because I have helped you so much, I can live in such a good house, with cows, donkeys and new clothes." I think now, even if I go to see Hades tomorrow, I'll be satisfied. ”
