The direction of Jinling was decided, and a letter was sent to Monk Feng the next day.

The next step of the Chuzhou army was to go south, first attacking Huzhou and Muzhou, and then taking Hangzhou and Mingzhou.

Because Huzhou is in the north of Hangzhou Mansion and south of Changzhou and Suzhou, Jinling will send a force of soldiers and horses to attack Huzhou first, and then attack Hangzhou Mansion with Monk Feng's department.

Master Lin wrote a letter to Shou Tianwan on behalf of Huo Wu, which was stamped with Huo Wu's private seal.

It's just that the Chuzhou army did not deliberately send a messenger to Wuchang Mansion, but directly connected the letter to Monk Feng and handed it to Tie Sheng.

The person sent back by Monk Feng this time was Tie Sheng.

Since the Chuzhou army and the Qichun army are facing each other outside Hongzhou City, then it will be resolved there.

The Chuzhou army did not want to go to war with the Qichun army, but they were not afraid to go to war with the Qichun army.

If Jinling sent a special envoy to Wuchang Mansion, it would seem that the Chuzhou army was too active.

If Qi Chunjun's brain was pumping, he would have to regard it as the Chuzhou army's fear of war, and put forward some messy conditions, it would become a joke.

Tie Sheng went back to Jiangzhou.

Jinling, on the other hand, is not in a hurry to send troops.

Huzhou is just south of Changzhou, 300 miles away from Jinling, and the soldiers can reach it in five or six days.

Monk Feng is now in Jiangzhou, nine hundred miles away from Jinling.

Tie Sheng hurried along the way, and it took three or four days to arrive.

Monk Feng had to reorganize his troops, and he also had to negotiate with the generals of the Qichun Army on the truce in Hongzhou.

Wait until there is almost the same negotiation on the neutrality of Hongzhou, and then lead the troops back to Xuanzhou to Muzhou, which is a few hundred miles away.

Calculated before and after, it will take half a month to say the least.

Jinling got the news of the opening there, and it was too late to prepare for departure.

Monk Feng now has 80,000 troops, but Xuanzhou, Jiangzhou, and Raozhou are newly occupied places after all, even if they don't guard against the Qichun army, they have to be guarded by soldiers.

A few counties in one state, to say the least, will cost more than 10,000 people.

At that time, about 50,000 people can be dispatched to fight Muzhou.

"There are tens of thousands of Jiangxi soldiers in Hangzhou, and the number of people cannot be less...... There is also a naval division in Hangzhou, and it is necessary to prevent officers and soldiers from escaping from the sea......"

Huo Wu looked at the map and pointed to Hangzhou Bay Road.

"The troops can be divided into three routes, Feng Shuai enters Hangzhou from the direction of Muzhou, Deng Shuai enters Hangzhou from Huzhou, and Yu Shuai enters Hangzhou from sea and land."

Master Lin said.

Deng Jian bowed his head beside him, with a little squint on his face.

What if there are tens of thousands of Jiangxi soldiers in Hangzhou?

A soldier bears a nest of bears.

Originally, the Jiangxi soldiers were well-known for their good fighting, but now the commander of the Jiangxi soldiers is far away, and the Jiangxi soldiers have no leader, so they can just take it.

Shui Jin couldn't help but be anxious: "Fifth master, Mr. Lin, what about me?" ”

Huo Bao stood next to Shui Jin, also a little eager to try.

Huzhou people, no matter whether the coach is Deng Jian or Huo Bao, can they follow him for a spin?

followed Deng Jian's "Eastern Crusade" before, but in fact, Huo Bao didn't get a battle at all.

There are really many young generals in the battle, and everyone wants to grab all the achievements.

However, Master Lin proposed that Deng Jian be the head coach, not Shui Jin, which surprised Huo Bao.

Because Master Lin had been mentioning to Huo Wu what was the way of balance, he didn't approve of Deng Jian's great credit.

It's Huo Wu here, helping the water in, which somewhat balances Deng Jian's meaning.

Huo Wudao: "Since the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, our Chuzhou army began to conquer, and it was fought down in one state and one county...... I stayed in Jinling, and it was not good to leave for a long time, so Boyang took Xiaobao to inspect the state capitals...... If there's anything wrong, find out as soon as possible......"

Although Shui Jin thought that the guards were not as interesting as fighting, he also responded honestly.

Huo Wu was quite surprised, and then understood the intentions of his father and Mr. Lin.

It is easy to build a territory, but it is not a simple matter to govern a place.

Not to mention anything else, it was the funeral in September last year, and Shui Jin and Huo Bao saw with their own eyes the tax increase in Quyang County.

In the eyes of the officials of Quyang County, only collecting commercial taxes will not affect the livelihood of the people, but also provide a sum of military funds for the Chuzhou Army.

But in this way, what is the difference between it and the corrupt officials under the rule of the imperial court?

It was Du Laoba, who heard that Huo Bao and Shui Jin were going out, and couldn't help but be moved: "Fifth brother, why don't you count me as one?" ”

Huo Wu's gaze was fixed on Du Laoba's stomach.

Du Laoba got married at the end of April, and it has been less than half a month, but his belly is smaller.

Looking at the face plate again, there are still several layers of chin, but the eyes that were originally squeezed into a slit because of obesity...... It's still a slit, but it's a little wider than before.

Huo Wu saw it and was secretly satisfied in his heart.

I had heard that the bride of Du Mansion was diligent, and every time she washed her hands and made soup, Huo Wu was still worried.

Du Laoba is too fat, and it is not a good thing to be fat again.

He is greedy and delicious, and nothing is good, so he has a good appetite.

After decades of habit, it is harder to avoid than to kill him.

The bride not only made Du Laoba's favorite food, but also took care of his body and made him lose weight, which shows that she is a very careful woman.

.

"It's hot when you see it, aren't you afraid of the heat?"

Huo Wu asked curiously.

Du Laoba is not a diligent person, if he is a diligent person, he will not raise a fat body.

Because of his fat physique, he has the most bitter summer.

Du Laoba said "hehe" twice: "In previous years, it was only hot in June, and this is still more than half a month ......" Speaking of this, his eyes rolled: "My good cook, why don't you bring her too?" Just on the way, I made a delicious ...... for Xiaobao."

Huo Wu listened with a smile, and had some guesses.

Since the Chuzhou army entered Jinling last year, or the Chuzhou army formed an army in Chuzhou even earlier, many people have been staring at the top leaders.

To put it bluntly, it's just a trend of inflammation.

When he was in Chuzhou, he was a local gentry in Chuzhou.

When he arrived in Jinling, he was the gentry under the rule of the Chuzhou army in Jinling and the surrounding areas.

Everyone knows that Taiwei Huo is the master of the Chuzhou Army, and the most important thing to worry about is the Taiwei Mansion, but the ordinary people on the Taiwei Mansion are really clinging to it.

Even the Huo clan relatives are also very restrained, and they shouldn't pull the line from it.

The rest, including Deng, Ma, Lin, Du, Feng, Shui, and other leaders, are also the targets of everyone.

But it's not easy for these people to cling to.

When Tang Guang was alive before, he also received foreign guests, and it was a bridge between the Chuzhou army and the local gentry.

When Tang Guang passed away, everyone just couldn't get out of a good relationship.

Now that the owner of the horse village is remarried, Du Lao is married, and he has opened a hole for everyone.

Do not receive foreign guests, always receive in-laws.

The Guo family is the old surname of Chuzhou, and most of the Guo family's cousins are understanding people, and their children are also excellent, so they don't need to worry about crooked ways.

But the in-laws are old, and most of them are eyeing the Guo family.

Before going out, everyone flattered the girl that she had a good future, and this time she went out and became a little daughter-in-law, and the elders of the relatives found an excuse to come to the door, and the Guo family was unbearable.

On the side of the owner of the horse village, Master Shi was cautious, and he had already explained to his relatives, and the relatives acted in a somewhat measured manner.

Du Laoba is also a lazy person, and he is not happy to let him change his clothes several times a day to meet his in-laws; But he also knew that this was not for the face of the in-laws who came to the door, but for the face of his wife, and he went out to deal with it if he was not happy.

It's just that I got bored again and again, so I thought about hiding from it.

When Huo Wu thought of this, he didn't mean to stop it, but said: "Then go out and go around, and wait until June to come back ......."

The Chuzhou army now occupies the fifteen state capitals of Chuzhou, Hezhou, Luzhou, Taipingfu, Jinling, Zhenjiang, Yangzhou, Changzhou, Suzhou, Songjiang, Shuzhou, Shouzhou, Xuanzhou, Jiangzhou, and Raozhou.

Among them, Chuzhou, Hezhou, Luzhou, Yangzhou, Shuzhou, and Shouzhou are Jiangbei and Huainan Province.

Taipingfu, Jinling, Zhenjiang, Changzhou, Suzhou, and Songjiang are in the south of the Yangtze River and are under the rule of the host province of Jiangnan.

Xuanzhou, Jiangzhou, and Raozhou are also in Jiangnan, but they are under the rule of Jiangnan West Province.

Huo Bao, Shui Jin and others inspected, it should be the state capitals of Huainan Province first, followed by the Jiangnan East Road, and finally the Jiangnan West Road that was captured.

The temperature in Jiangbei is slightly lower than that in Jiangnan, and it doesn't feel hot in the past now.
