When turmoil broke out inside and outside Jiujiang City, Liu Nengzheng and several of his subordinates stayed in a house outside the city.

conspired with Huang Shu to kill Zuo Liangyu and helped Huang Shu seize control of the 200,000 army, which made Liu Neng very proud in his heart. As long as these 200,000 troops obey the command and no longer fight timidly, Jiujiang City will definitely be able to block the enemy's eastward path. In this way, Hou Ye had enough time to deal with the Qing army of Duoduo that had already attacked Huaiyang.

In his excitement, Liu Neng even wanted to write a letter to Chen Yue to report the results of this trip.

But the turmoil came so quickly that Liu Neng was completely caught off guard.

When he heard that Zuo Mengeng had rebelled and led the army to attack Jiujiang City and the garrison outside the city, Liu Neng was completely stunned, he didn't know why this happened.

"My lord, leave quickly, Inspector Yuan has been captured by Hao Xiaozhong, and Jiujiang City is in chaos." One of the Enemy Intelligence Division's men hurried out of the city to report what had happened.

"My lord, when Huang Shu, the superintendent of the army, was drinking with Wu Xiaoli, he was caught by Wu Xiaoli and was being escorted to Zuo Menggeng's warship, and Wu Xiaoli also reversed." Another subordinate came in and reported another piece of bad news.

Yuan Jixian and Huang Shu were arrested one after another, and the situation in Jiujiang can no longer be said. Zuo Mengeng did this kind of thing, he must have reported the intention of betraying the Ming Dynasty, maybe he has already joined the enemy, I don't know if he voted for Mantar or a thief.

Huang Shu was arrested, if he confessed to poisoning Zuo Liangyu by himself, he would definitely not be able to escape death, and he couldn't stay in Jiujiang anymore.

Just when Liu Neng led people to withdraw from the house, he saw that the riverbank was full of routs, and countless soldiers rushed into the shops on the street, rushed into the people's homes, committed adultery and plunder, and cried one after another.

More than a dozen soldiers walked along the street, saw Liu Neng and his party, and when they saw the packages carried by several people in their bright clothes, their eyes showed a greedy light, and they couldn't help but dance their weapons and kill them, regardless of the identity of the person opposite.

In this kind of chaotic situation, don't say that you are an officer or a brocade guard, even if you are a high-ranking official, what can you do, killing people and robbing money is the right thing, throwing the body into the river, who will know about this matter?

Liu Neng and the others had no choice but to resist, and the soldiers of the Enemy Intelligence Division were all selected from the Pingnan Army, and their combat power was extraordinary.

"Hurry up, they'll call for reinforcements and it's over." Liu Neng said hurriedly. Several people fled in embarrassment outside Jiujiang.

On the shore, looking at Huang Shu who was escorted over, Zuo Mengeng was full of ambition, "It's a small one, just because you dare to fight with the master!" Zuo Mengeng waved the whip, beat Huang Shu to the ground, and wailed and begged for mercy.

"Young Marquis, the last general shouldn't have listened to this surnamed Huang's fool and made something sorry for you, please spare the last general this time!" Seeing Zuo Mengeng looking at him, Wu Xiaoli knelt on the ground and hurriedly said.

beat Huang Shu hard, Zuo Mengeng's anger was out of most of it, and when he looked at Wu Xiaoli again, his disgust was much lighter, thinking that Wu Xiaoli took the initiative to catch Huang Shu, it can be regarded as a lost return, Zuo Mengeng thought about how to deal with this guy.

At this moment, a dozen or so routs ran over the shore crying and shouting.

"Go see what's going on?" Zuo Mengeng frowned and commanded casually.

A few guards ran over, stopped the rout, quickly asked about the matter, and walked back.

"They said they found a few brocade guards, and several brothers were killed during the battle." A guard said.

Jin Yiwei? Zuo Mengeng was stunned for a moment.

"I know, I know," Wu Xiaoli hurriedly raised his hand and shouted, and after getting Zuo Menggeng's permission, he crawled over, "These people are not Jinyiwei, but soldiers of the Enemy Intelligence Department under the Jiangbei Governor's Mansion, these people have a close relationship with Huang Shu, and Huang Shu has discussed many things with the leader named Liu Neng.

Jiangbei Governor's Mansion Enemy Intelligence Division? Zuo Mengeng instinctively realized that something was wrong, his father died very strangely, his condition had improved, but he died suddenly, and then Huang Shu colluded with Wu Xiaoli and Xu Yong and others to seize military power, everything came so suddenly.

Huang Shu has been arrested, and if he catches that Liu Neng again, the ins and outs of the matter will be clear.

"Zhao Shen, you take five hundred people to arrest this Liu Neng, you must capture him alive for me!" Zuo Mengeng ordered at a guard general beside him.

......

Running with a few of his subordinates in embarrassment, Liu Neng felt that his chest was hot, and he was almost out of breath.

When I first joined the Xishan Army, I had to run such a long mountain road every day. And today, the distance run has far exceeded the morning exercise when joining the army training.

The accomplices of the slain soldiers called for reinforcements, and hundreds of troops surrounded and killed several of their own people. Fortunately, Liu Neng's sense of smell on the battlefield was extremely sensitive, and he successfully avoided Jiujiang City, where he met the pursuers and finally stayed away, but at this time, he was also discovered by the pursuers, and then chased and killed him.

The pursuers seemed to know the direction they were heading to, and they copied from the east along the riverbank, forcing Liu Neng to flee to the southwest.

And this group of pursuers didn't know why, they were entangled like dog skin plasters, forcing Liu Neng and others to run all the way to the southwest.

At this moment, Liu Neng's heart was very remorseful, and the situation had developed to such a point that it was completely out of his control. Originally, he wanted to control the 200,000 left army through Huang Shu, so as to help hold Jiujiang and block the Manchu Tartars and thieves.

And now everything is in chaos, Zuo Mengeng rebelled blatantly, took Yuan Jixian and Huang Shu, and occupied Jiujiang City.

All this, Liu Neng thinks that it is completely his own fault. If it weren't for his self-righteous poisoning of Zuo Liangyu and colluding with Huang Shu to try to grasp the military power, Zuo Mengeng would not have been forced to rebel!

The 200,000 troops that originally belonged to the imperial court have now become rebels in the blink of an eye, Jiujiang is lost, and only the Wuhu Taiping Defense Line guarded by the old marquis is left to the east, and the old marquis has 40,000 Beijing troops in his hands!

What's next? Liu Neng couldn't imagine that at this moment, he wanted to die!

Running all the way west, it was not until he entered the mountains that he was free from the pursuers.

To the west of Jiujiang is the Taiping Mountain and other mountain ranges, although the mountains are not too high, the road is difficult to walk. When night came, several people had to stay in the mountains for a night, and did not dare to return to Jiujiang, so they could only continue to the west, and it took another day to climb over the mountains to reach the territory of Huguang, and a river appeared in front of them.

After asking the mountain people, I knew that this was called the Fushui River, which led to the Yangtze River to the north.

After finding a boat and rowing towards the Yangtze River, it took half a day to reach the mouth of the river flowing into the Yangtze River, Liu Neng ordered the boat to stop, and it was necessary to find out whether there were any Left Army troops on the riverside before he could make the next step.

As soon as I went ashore, I saw that in the west, a huge army appeared in the distance on the bank of the river, and in the middle of the Yangtze River, countless ships were going downstream.
