After Liu Juntao received the reply, although he was still worried about the stability of the rear, he also believed that Tang Yu, Guo Yongzhong, Liu Zi'an, Chen Ziping, Gao Ran and others could guard their homes and deal with this natural disaster.

So, Liu Juntao forced himself to stabilize his mind and began to deal with the war in front of him.

First of all, Liu Juntao informed the whole army that disaster relief had begun in the rear, and Yushan Town was not affected much, so as to stabilize the morale of the army.

At the same time, the news collected by the Investigation Department also came over one after another, and Liu Juntao was not until Ye Zong left Deng Mao Qiyi before, and the two thieves had already fallen out, and he was also relieved in his heart.

But within a few days, the Investigation Department sent a bad news: Deng Maoqi and Ye Zongliu began to contact frequently, and the two thieves showed signs of reuniting!

So, Liu Juntao hurriedly asked to see the general Dai Jingkui, and asked to go to the military department, and the army immediately attacked.

"General! At this time, Deng Maoqi and Ye Zongliu have already broken up, and it is a great opportunity for us to break through! If these two thieves collude again, the thieves are bound to resurge, and if the imperial court wants to exterminate them again, it will cost several times the price! ”

Anyone with a discerning eye can see this truth, where would General Dai Jingkui not understand?

It's just that now the Ministry of War has strictly ordered the army to suspend the attack, and the follow-up money, food, and baggage have also begun to be reduced.

Liu Juntao said eagerly: "General! If we don't give it a try, how will we know that it won't work? Instead of sitting in Wuping County and watching the resurgence of thieves, it is better to go to the Ministry of War to gamble! ”

"Good!"

Staff General Dai Jingkui was also moved by Liu Juntao's words, and immediately said: "Liu Guerrilla is temporarily back, I will go to the military department today to ask for battle!" ”

At the same time, Ye Zongliu was commanding an army of 100,000 thieves to storm the city of Ganzhou, Jiangxi, at this time there were only more than 2,000 officers and soldiers in the city, plus 6,000 people.

Although after the bloody battle of the officials, soldiers and civilians in the city, the thieves at the head of the city were finally killed, but this was a serious blow to the morale of the officials and soldiers.

At this time, Wang Nengzheng led another army of 100,000 troops to garrison Ruijin County in the east, which was the closest route for Fujian Tingzhou Prefecture to enter the northern part of Ganzhou Prefecture.

The remaining 80,000 thieves and soldiers were scattered in Xingguo County, Ningdu County, and Shicheng County in the north of Ganzhou Prefecture.

Ye Zongliu had already begun to train elite soldiers, hoard money and grain, and set up institutions in the north of Ganzhou Mansion, preparing to change his style of rogues and try his best to gain a firm foothold in Ganzhou Mansion.

On this day, Ye Zong stayed under the protection of a group of thieves and came to the east of Ganzhou Mansion to watch the battle, only to see that the boundless army of thieves was attacking the city, and the black pressure was climbing on the city wall, squirming towards the city head like countless insects.

"It seems that it won't take a few days to attack the capital city of Ganzhou!"

Thinking that his great cause was about to be realized, Ye Zongliu couldn't help but feel a lot of pride in his heart.

"Now that the Yellow River embankment has burst, the imperial court can't take care of the south, I have this time, I can train elite soldiers, expand my power, and stabilize my territory, even if Liu Juntao and the rest of the officers and soldiers come to kill in the future, I will have the strength to fight!"

Thinking of this, Ye Zongliu was even more excited.

At this moment, a team of scouts rushed over and said, "King Qiyu, King Shoveling has sent someone to deliver a message, and I want to invite the king to meet and discuss the plan!" ”

"Humph!"

Ye Zongliu snorted coldly and said secretly: "It seems that Deng Maoqi also learned the news of the Yellow River embankment burst, and wants to take the opportunity to make trouble!" ”

Ye Zongliu thought for a while, and then said: "Tell the person who came, if the king of Shoping wants to meet with this king, then ten days later, we will meet in Huichang County!" ”

"Order!"

Huichang County is located in the south of Ruijin County and north of Anyuan County, which is located in the middle of Ganzhou Prefecture.

And Ruijin County has 100,000 troops stationed under Wang Neng's department, and Anyuan County also has Deng Mao's seven troops hoarding soldiers and horses, which is exactly a central place for both sides, and Deng Maoqi will not object.

Really!

Ten days later, Ye Zongliu had just arrived more than ten miles north of Huichang County when he heard that Deng Maoqi had arrived with a thousand soldiers and horses.

On the same day, the two sides met ten miles west of Huichang County.

"Bulldoze the King!"

Ye Zongliu laughed and took the lead in greeting Deng Maoqi.

Although Deng Maoqi was so angry with Ye Zongliu, at this time, for the sake of the overall situation, he could only smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, and bow his hand to Ye Zongliu.

Subsequently, the two did not have any politeness, and talked about the current situation directly.

Ye Zongliu said; "King Pingping, now that the Yellow River has flooded, the imperial court has been too busy to take care of itself, and the more than 40,000 conquest troops have also been stationed in Wuping County, Tingzhou Prefecture, obviously because of the lack of money and food, and there is no ability to continue the war, this is our opportunity!"

Deng Maoqi said coldly: "Then what does Ye Shuai think?" ”

Although Deng Maoqi's tone was very blunt, Ye Zongliu didn't care, and continued: "Fight back! Our two sides formed an alliance, I led the army to develop in the north of Ganzhou Mansion, and bulldozed Wang led the army to develop in the south of Ganzhou Mansion, and our two sides will take this Huichang County as the boundary! Taking advantage of the fact that the imperial court can't take care of us now, the two sides of us are concentrating their forces to attack the city and conquer the city, and on the other hand, they are training elite soldiers and continuing their strength. During this period, either of our two families was besieged by the official army, and the other family had to go all out to save each other, how about it? ”

Deng Maoqi suddenly laughed when he heard this, and said: "Ye Shuai said that he took the opportunity to develop his power, and this king naturally agrees. But what about this alliance, ......, Ye Shuai, can this king still trust you? ”

"Naturally!"

I saw Ye Zongliu say with a straight face: "Raze the king!" Ye did some wrong things before, so that the king of bulldozing suffered a big loss, today Ye specially brought 50,000 stone of grain as an apology, in the future, if the king needs to be bulldozed, Ye will also try his best to help! Now, only if the two of us work together can the righteous army develop and grow as soon as possible, otherwise once the imperial court comes to its senses, we are still not the opponent of the official army! ”

After listening to Ye Zongliu's words, Deng Maoqi also hesitated, especially when he heard that Ye Zongliu brought 50,000 stones of grain and grass to him, Deng Maoqi was even more moved, after all, what his army lacked most now was food!

"Good!"

After thinking about it, Deng Maoqi still decided to believe in Ye Zongliu again, and said: "Since Ye Shuai is so sincere, then this king will believe you again!" From this day on, the king will lead his troops to the south, west, and east, but not to the north. ”

"Rest assured, the king of the bulldozel! Ye will never march south, and the two of us must also strengthen liaison and develop together, so as to deal with the encirclement and suppression of the official army in the future! ”

After the two discussed it again, Deng Maoqi took the 50,000 stone grain and went back satisfied.

And Ye Zongliu looked at the people of Deng Maoqi's department who had gone away, and also sneered, and said secretly: "With Deng Maoqi, a rising bird, I can develop my power and accumulate strength with peace of mind!" ”

Then, Ye Zongliu hurried back to the capital city of Ganzhou, commanding an army of 100,000 to storm the city day and night.

Two days later, Ye Zongliu led his troops to capture the capital city of Ganzhou.

At this point, the entire northern part of Ganzhou Mansion was occupied by Ye Zongliu!

At the same time, after Deng Maoqi returned to Anyuan County, the capital of Ganzhou, he also began to mobilize troops and horses, preparing to vigorously expand to the surrounding areas.

For a time, the situation in Jiangxi took a sharp turn for the worse, and there was a trend of complete collapse!
