A pyrrhic victory is a pyrrhic victory, but the result is not unacceptable.

In this battle, the number of his own soldiers, 5,000 people from the Pingnan Army in Chen Yue's hands, plus 1,000 people from Jin Shenghuan's department, and Lu Zhenfei's standard battalion, the total number was more than 8,000 people, but they defeated Gao Jie Liu Liangzuo's 20,000 army in one fell swoop.

Gao Jie committed suicide, Liu Liangzuo was defeated and fled, and most of the rest surrendered.

In just this battle, the army of the four towns that supported King Fu was broken in half, and the other two towns must have been frightened.

Under the long-term dissipation, the governors and officials of the provinces naturally know how to choose, and the people of the world naturally know what the people want.

King Fu, there is no need to worry!

The battlefield in the canal can be cleaned up by Jin Shenghuan. At this moment, Chen Yue had to go to meet Chongzhen and report to him the course of the battle.

In this battle, to put it bluntly, Chen Yue used Chongzhen as a bait and won the battle with a surprise attack, if Chongzhen gave birth to mustard because of this, it would be very troublesome, so Chen Yue had to comfort Chongzhen.

"Pingnan Hou Mo go!" Just as Chen Yue was about to take a small boat to Chongzhen's official ship, Lu Zhenfei dealt with the surrender of the rest of Gao Jie's troops and rushed over by boat.

So, the two took a small boat together and headed towards Chongzhen's official boat.

"The Marquis of Pingnan strategized and defeated the rebel army of 15,000 with a mere 3,000 troops, and Sun Wu is nothing more than this when he is alive!"

Lu Zhenfei said to Chen Yue, although the words were compliments, but when he heard it, his ears were full of ridicule.

"Master Lu has an overreputation, Chen Yue just won a small battle. It was only by surprise attack that the rebels were defeated, and besides, the main forces of the rebels were in the river to storm our fleet, and although there were many people on the shore, they were only some fish belly. With such a small victory, how dare you compete with the Soldier Saint? ”

Chen Yue replied lightly, and the whole person became vigilant.

"Hehe, the Marquis of Pingnan was able to anticipate the enemy's opportunity, send the main force of the cavalry battalion and infantry to the enemy's back, pretend to be the main force of the Pingnan Army with regimental training, and use the fleet as a bait, so that the rebels are completely ignorant of the reality of our army. Then he suddenly killed the rebels when they stormed the fleet, and played tens of thousands of rebels in the palm of their hands. With such a strategy, such a means to gain insight into the first opportunity, why should you be humble. ”

Lu Zhenfei stared at Chen Yue with scorching eyes, and said the four words of the enemy's first opportunity very seriously, and the word bait was mentioned, so Chen Yue knew that he had seen through all his plans, and there was a hint of beating himself in his words, criticizing himself for not being bold and reckless, and putting Emperor Chongzhen in danger.

"The urgency of the situation is not enough to break the rebels quickly." Chen Yue said calmly, with no guilt in his heart, and he didn't want to explain too much.

Lu Zhenfei nodded and said no more. Although he was very dissatisfied with Chen Yue's concealment of military information and putting Chongzhen in a dangerous place, the result of this battle was so perfect that he couldn't say anything.

......

"Two Aiqing, hurry up!" Seeing the two, Chongzhen Longyan was happy, and a happy smile appeared on his face.

Although Chongzhen was greatly frightened when he was attacked by the enemy, it made Chongzhen even more angry to hear that King Fu dared to send an army to kill him. But in the end, he still won a big victory, killed the rebel general Gao Jie who attacked the fleet, and defeated 20,000 rebels on the shore, which made Chongzhen feel extremely happy, and his eyes were full of joy when he looked at Chen Yue.

"Let Your Majesty be frightened, and Weichen will die." Chen Yue pleaded guiltily and told the story of the battle as he spoke.

When he was in Huai'an, Weichen detected that Gao Jie and Liu Liangzuo had moved, but he didn't know that they were so bold and dared to attack the fleet to rebel. At that time, in order to be cautious, the minister sent the Pingnan Army cavalry battalion and infantry battalion to march on the land route, hiding the tracks along the way and carefully protecting the fleet.

Who knew that the crooked attack was going on, and in the middle of the night I heard a report from my men that a large number of troops were approaching. In order not to cause confusion in the fleet, I ordered Vice Admiral Jin Shenghuan to take charge of the command, and I found the cavalry battalion and infantry battalion of the Pingnan Army, and took them back to reinforce the fleet.

The ministers also arrived in time with the cavalry battalion and the infantry battalion and routed the main rebel force. ”

Chen Yue carefully recounted the battle, attributed everything to accident, and lightly washed away the fact that he used Chongzhen as bait.

Chongzhen didn't think much about it, being able to win the battle was enough to make him excited, where would he think too much. At the moment, he praised Chen Yue and Jin Shenghuan repeatedly, and his expression was extremely happy.

Lu Zhenfei looked at Chen Yue with a complicated expression, but he didn't say much.

......

"Father hasn't been so happy for a long time." At the stern of the second floor of the official ship, Princess Kunxing leaned on the railing, gently kicked the boat with her feet, and said to Chen Yue happily.

Smelling the faint fragrance of the girl's body, Chen Yue was extremely calm, and looked at Kun Xing with a smile, without saying much.

"I feel like I'm so useless, watching you fight bloody. I couldn't help anything, so I sat in the cabin in fear. ”

Kun Xing's voice changed, and his face showed sadness again.

"Haha, of course I will do the fighting, and you should be a dignified princess in the palace! I'm in charge of fighting and fighting, and you're in charge of being as beautiful as a flower. Chen Yue laughed.

"I don't, I don't want to stay in the palace every day and do nothing, what's the difference between that and waste?" Kunxing's face was slightly red.

"And what do you want?" Chen Yue spread his hands and asked with a smile.

"I, I often dream of my mother's suicide, my sister Zhaoren lying in a pool of blood, and I dream of the crown prince and Yongwang Dingwang, whose whereabouts are still unknown. I don't hate my father for forcing my mother to hang herself, nor do I hate him for killing Zhaoren, because he did it for our own good, and he didn't want us to fall into the hands of thieves and be humiliated.

All of this is because of the thieves, and when the Ming Dynasty is in such a situation, it is all caused by the thieves.

I want to avenge my mother and sister, but I don't know what to do. ”

Two lines of tears fell from Kun Xing's white face, and her expression was full of sadness.

Do you blame Li Zicheng and others for everything? Chen Yue smiled, and didn't want to explain more. Kunxing should be very bored herself, and she doesn't have time to spend more time with her, so maybe it's better to find her something to do.

"Revenge doesn't have to be in person, and fighting a war is never just about fighting. Food, salary, weapons, and baggage are all important factors in determining whether or not we can win a war.

You are a woman, and you can't go to war, but you can read more, and maybe you can help Your Majesty from somewhere else. For example, when I was in Beijing, did the honeycomb coal we made together earn a lot of money for Your Majesty? If Da Ming has enough money and food, are you afraid that you won't be able to destroy the thieves? ”

"Yes, the honeycomb coal last time really helped my father a lot, but unfortunately he was impeached by those ministers, and in the end the honeycomb coal was taken by my grandfather. Chen Yue, you said that I can still make money in business in the future? Kun Xing asked excitedly.

"Of course you can, and see who dares to impeach us in the future!" Chen Yue said with a smile.
