Ruan Dacheng listened to the conversation between the two, couldn't help but smile, and said: "General Zhang is so decisive, I really admire it, I never thought that Qian Lao'er would be like this, it's really a poor time." ”

Among the group, Ruan Dacheng felt the most happy.

The relationship between Ruan Dacheng and Qian Qianyi is not much better, but he is now following Luo Yulong, and he does not press the previous right and wrong for the time being, not that Ruan Dacheng is magnanimous. It's that he knows that he is by Luo Yulong's side and has not yet gained a firm foothold. There are many things that can't be done, otherwise if he is too selfish, it will shake Luo Yulong's trust in him.

Today's events, Ruan Dacheng felt that he couldn't be happier, the people in Donglin boasted of being loyal ministers one by one, Ruan Dacheng even wanted to show Qian Qianyi's performance today, so that many Donglin people knew what kind of face they had, and the leader of Donglin and his eunuch party surrendered to the thieves together.

When Ruan Dacheng thought about it, he felt extremely funny.

It doesn't get much like this. The feeling for Zhang Xuan is also a little closer.

Zhang Xuan listened to Ruan Dacheng's words, and said secretly in his heart: "It seems that Ruan Dacheng are some kind of loyal person. ”

However, this can't be said, it's too much of a slap in the face. Zhang Xuan smiled lightly and said, "Lord Ruan, I don't know much about talents in the southeast, but I don't know what talents are in the southeast. As for Dr. Wenchenshi, I won't ask. Want to know if there are any generals in the southeast? ”

Zhang Xuan has found his own position, and after seeing Zhang Qian's internal affairs ability, Zhang Xuan has to admit one thing, that is, he seems to have a lot of new ideas and new ideas, but he lacks the ability to execute. I'm afraid that it can't compare to Zhang Zhen in terms of internal affairs ability.

Zhang Zhen didn't have any reputation at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and he didn't know if he died early. Or for some other reason. Zhang Xuan guessed that Zhang Zhen's internal ability was probably not first-class in the world. In addition, Zhang Xuan spent so long learning to march and fight, and he felt that he had entered the door. It would be a shame to give up.

He positioned himself as a general of his relatives and the founding general. Political bigwigs, after the world is leveled in the future, he doesn't care about anything, just take Luo Yujiao's Youzai from the south and the north of the world. If there is a title on the head of the children and grandchildren, maybe the grandchildren will still be princesses.

Among the founding generals of previous dynasties, there are many people who have such treatment.

Therefore, Zhang Xuan decided to give up meddling in the civil service. This time, if Ruan Dacheng's persuasion didn't go well, Zhang Xuan wouldn't have made a move. And if it weren't for Zhang Xuan's decision not to get too close to Wenchen, even if he made a move, it wouldn't be like this.

I believe that even after Qian Qianyi will be in a high position in the future, he will never thank Zhang Xuan, the person who led the way.

That's because of the abandonment

There are so many that Zhang Xuan is ready to strengthen his military strength more. This sentence is actually a polite remark for nothing to do. Looking for a general to come to Jiangnan to find it, it's a joke.

"The general doesn't know, the Jiangnan literary style is prosperous, talented and beautiful, that is not lacking in the past dynasties, but the generals are very few, the generals of the past dynasties are more than the northwest, the Han Dynasty is related to the east out of the prime minister, the Guanxi out of the generals, and now, the generals are more than nine sides, and there is only Yiwu in the south of the Yangtze River, and many generals have been brought out by General Qi, and there are no generals in other places at all."

Speaking of Yiwu, Ruan Dacheng suddenly paused and said: "Speaking of which, there is really a general in Jinhua. ”

"But who is it?" Zhang Xuan asked.

"Xu Du." Ruan Dacheng said.

Zhang Xuan asked casually, but he didn't want to really ask someone. Even Luo Yulong was interested, and said, "Who is Xu Du?" ”

Ruan Dacheng said: "His Royal Highness, Xu Du is a Jinhua person, and he is also a scholar, a good soldier, and his family is also a local hero, and Chen Zilong has a very good relationship, and even someone wrote to the court, recommending Xu Du as a general, but it is all over, this is implicated in a story, Chongzhen eight or nine years, Chongzhen ordered the ministers to recommend people who can be generals, and someone recommended a warrior monk, Chongzhen ordered to summon, allocated him 3,000 soldiers and horses, went out of the city to meet the enemy, and took over the resistance in the army, only a few hundred weak soldiers in hand, forced to go out of the city, Surrounded by the eastern captives by the river, his subordinates surrendered or fled, and he himself was killed in battle. After such a big defeat, both the DPRK and the Chinese government said that the people in Jiangnan should not be generals. So although Xu Du was recommended, it was just a reward. Just this year, there was an incident, the Xu family was rich, and no one in the family was an official, although he had a fame, but he couldn't stop the greed of the magistrate, the top urged taxes, urged tightly, and the people below naturally had something to do, forcing the people on the ground to rebel a lot, and the Xu family had some prestige in the local area, and Xu Du also had some dealings with these people, and the officials and soldiers also included the Xu family. Of course, Xu Du can't obey his fate, he knows too well that after entering the yamen, life and death can't be up to him. Therefore, he gathered a crowd to make trouble, and Jinhua reported to him that it was a rebellion, and it was a stalemate at the moment. However, I heard that Hangzhou had already sent Chen Zilong, and as soon as Chen Zilong arrived, Xu Du would definitely surrender. ”

"How did I not know about this?" Zhang Xuan said with great joy. When I think about it, his intelligence network in Jiangnan, no, he doesn't have such a thing as an intelligence network in Jiangnan at all. There are some things that Ruan Dacheng knows, but Zhang Xuan doesn't know.

However, Zhang Xuan heard the opportunity from here, and said to Luo Yulong: "Your Highness, the current situation is like a bamboo, and Jiangnan has almost no resistance power, so we don't have to gather together, it is best to divide the troops, and the matter of Xu Du is an opportunity." The reason why the last general had to force Qian Qianyi to surrender was to find a meeting in Jiangnan

The one who made it. No matter what Xu Du thinks, there is already a gap between him and the government at the moment. If we can bring Xu Du under our command, in the Jinhua area, we will also be supported, wouldn't it be wonderful. ”

Gangnam is Gangnam after all.

What Zhang Xuan has been thinking about is who is our friend and who is our enemy. The distinction between friend and foe is the primary issue. The rebel army is invincible in the north because the north has reached the verge of bankruptcy, and under natural and man-made disasters, the imperial court is still burdened, and the only way to survive is to join the rebel army.

This is the general trend. The most important reason for Li Zicheng's invincibility.

Gangnam is different.

Jiangnan is rich, although under the oppression of the official gentry and even geniuses, the people are no longer overwhelmed, but they are just overwhelmed, and they still live. Xu Du's kind of thing also happened in many places, but Xu is just a typical example.

What Xu Du did was not an uprising, but a bargain with the government.

The Chinese people will not rise up to make trouble until they are at a critical moment of life and death.

Why Jiangnan is easy to settle is so difficult to determine, that's it. Regardless of the moment of life and death, the common people would not throw themselves into the rebels, and in their opinion, the gentry who usually had prestige in the local area were more worthy of refuge. There are such unstable factors, which is the reason why it is easy to determine and difficult to settle.

But with Xu Du and these people, the righteous army can easily grasp the reality of Jinhua. even selected some from the Xu Du people to be the magistrates of Jinhua, thinking that these people must be loyal.

After Luo Yulong heard this, he said: "Mr. Ruan said that it is easy for Xu to surrender, and when the time comes, won't the army run in vain?" ”

"So, I propose to divide the troops." Zhang Xuan said: "The army is divided into three routes, one to Songjiang, one to attack Hangzhou from Suzhou, and the other to Jinhua. Jinhua's journey, I said, I naturally led the troops south, but I don't know what the prince wants? ”

After Luo Yulong heard this, he immediately understood a problem, it seemed that there were three ways to divide the army, but in fact, there were two ways.

Without him, between Changzhou and Suzhou, there is a Taihu Lake, Songjiang is in the east of Taihu Lake, Zhang Xuan goes south, and he will definitely go to the west of Taihu Lake, but Luo Yulong goes to Suzhou to go to the east of Taihu Lake.

In other words, attacking Songjiang and Suzhou can almost be classified as one road. From Changzhou to Jinhua, it is a considerable distance. Passing through several prefectures and counties, this is the real division of troops.

Luo Yulong pondered for a while and said, "Since you want to go, go ahead." I'll leave it to me. ”

Zhang Xuan said: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your permission." ”

Luo Yulong said: "Since this is the case, without further ado, after going back, let's prepare quickly." ”

"Yes." Zhang Xuan said.
