For the first time, the gentry and people in Anqing City saw the imperial face of the Son of Heaven directly face to face, or the soldiers and civilians who received his attention and raised their hands to him in salute, of course, felt extremely honored. Even if www.biquge.info people are crowded behind the crowd and can't see the Son of Heaven himself, he only sees the standard-bearer holding the big banner and the public servant carrying the shoulder, he is also very excited.

In the three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, the orthodoxy has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the sacredness of the Son of Heaven has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

The ceremony of entering the city at the parade greatly boosted the morale of the military and people in the city and played a role in calming people's minds.

At the same time, the pro-conquest army also brought a large amount of grain cloth, a cart full of sackcloth grain was taken from the transport ship at the wharf, and mules and horses were carried into the city, which was a reserve of grain for Anqing City, to prevent the city from running out of grain after the siege.

After entering the city, Zhu Youhua cared about the Jiujiang battle situation, and that night he summoned the superintendent Gu Yinxi, Jingnan Hou Huang Degong, the chief soldier Zhang Tanggong, Zhu Chenggong, and the overseer Chen Bangyan, the chief soldier Zhang Mingzhen, and the Anqing prefect Xiao Gan to the superintendent to inquire about the battle situation and discuss the strategy of the thief.

War trains people, there is no natural commander, even if Zhu Youhua is a traveler who is familiar with the history of the Ming Dynasty, it is impossible to conquer the world, in his previous life, he was just a pseudo-military fan, so he can only learn step by step in the war, step by step to mature, as for how far he can grow in the end, it depends on the creation.

Anqing is only more than 300 miles away from Jiujiang, and it can be reached almost in a day to go down the river to the east, and he knows a lot more about the battle situation on the front line than Zhu Youhua Junchen, and as soon as he arrived at Anqing, he sent out several waves of patrol battalion rangers, going back and forth between Jiujiang and Anqing, and transmitting news from the front line at any time.

He reported the military information he had obtained to Zhu Youhua 1510, so that Zhu Youhua could generally understand the battle situation on the front line, and knew that Jiujiang had not been lost for the time being, and he was a little relieved.

After inquiring about the situation of the battle, Zhong Wenwu began to discuss the matter of discussing the thief.

Jingnan Hou Huang Degong led 20,000 battalion soldiers of nearly five battalions to enter Anqing with Guanyinxi, he was heroic and brave, eager to see the merits, and advocated an immediate attack and an upright field battle with the rebels in order to win a complete victory. On the grounds that "there are many generals and soldiers in the pro-conscription army, and the morale is high at the moment, if the battle is delayed for a long time, the morale will definitely decline, and it will be unfavorable to the army."

Chen Bangyan also agreed with Huang Degong's suggestion, and said: "The soldiers have a thunderous saying that they cannot hide their ears, and the proposal of pro-conscription is established, and it is better to go out early than to go out late. ”

The young and vigorous Zhu Chenggong asked to be the vanguard with Huang Degong, leading the naval fleet of the headquarters to defeat the rebel sailors in one fell swoop and cut off their way back.

Other Zhang Tanggong, Zhang Mingzhen, and others also spoke one after another, and their opinions were basically the same, all of them advocated an immediate attack, and attacked the Ming army inside and outside Jiujiang City, striving to annihilate the left part of Jiujiang City in one fell swoop.

Only the old Cheng seeks the country, and the cautious plug Yinxi advocates holding on to the heavy action, aiding and defending in parallel, exhausting the food and salary of the left army, and when his army is in turmoil, he will unite inside and outside, and do his best to fight the whole army, and he can win with one blow.

Plug Yinxi's words were approved by some conservatives in Anqing City, the weight of which cannot be ignored, everyone has different opinions, Zhu Youhua thought about it again and again, and decided to compromise,

He got up and pulled up the wall chart, set up the sand table, and began to assign the generals the task of battle and defense with a serious face.

Zhu Chenggong's 3,000 sailors battalion was responsible for destroying the rebels' sailors, and all the rebels' ships and food and supplies on board were confiscated.

Zhang Mingzhen dispatched 3,000 sailors to transport Huang Degong's 5,000 battalions of Tian Xiong to Qizhou in the upper reaches of the Jiujiang River, and was responsible for cutting off the rebels' return route.

There are 5,000 other troops in Anqing City, responsible for defending the city and waiting for help at any time.

The remaining 10,000 battalions were led by Huang Degong and Zhu Youhua's 8,000 imperial battalion and horse infantry artillery team to land at Nanhuzui Wharf on the north shore of Poyang Lake, marched along Lushan Mountain to the southern boundary of Jiujiang, to prevent the rebels from escaping into Nanchang Mansion when they heard the news, and to encircle the rebels on the left to death in the east of Jiujiang City and on the bank of the Yangtze River. Annihilation in one fell swoop.

The other three towns in Jiangbei were stationed in situ, strictly guarding Shandong, and the left army stationed in Henan for a generation has completed the relocation of the capital since entering November, and the Qing court after the defeat of Li Chuang began to move frequently, repeatedly sending troops deep into the Huai River area, successively breaking Haizhou, entering Suqian, and almost all of Shandong, Feng and Pei fell.

History has not left much time for Zhu Youhua, if he can't quickly put down Zuo Liangyu's rebellion, the consequences will be unimaginable, and with those second-rate troops in the three towns of Jiangbei, he will not be able to stop the iron cavalry of the left army from moving south.

After assigning the task of defending the battle, Zhu Youhua sent another order to send people to Jiujiang to report to Zhu Dadian, and the reinforcements would arrive immediately, and after the soldiers and civilians in Jiujiang City got the news, the morale of the army would inevitably be greatly boosted, which was conducive to holding the city.

Zhu Youhua also knew that the soldiers and civilians in Jiujiang City hoped that the army of Wang Shi would be like the hope of a great drought, so he sent 20 letter cavalry as pioneers to Jiujiang to report the news, and he personally led the waterway army to land on the south bank of the Yangtze River, preparing to reach Jiujiang as soon as possible and complete the encirclement and annihilation plan.

After a day and a night, the Ming army patrolling the city at the head of Jiujiang City, found that there was a Biao men and horses galloping outside the city, and the left army rangers along the way saw that they went out to block the attack, but they could not stop them from slashing and killing, axes and swords, the left army rangers were defeated and scattered, and did not dare to pursue, this Biao men and horses rushed to the foot of the city gate like a flying wind, and shouted the door.

The Ming army in the city hurriedly told the governor Zhu Dadian, the general Yan Yingyuan and others, Yan Yingyuan recognized that the knights under the city were from the imperial camp, and knew that it was his own people, so he hurriedly lowered the drawbridge and opened the door to welcome them in.

Twenty letter riders, from the day of departure, in one day and one night, galloped more than 300 roads, during which they only ate some dry food to satisfy their stomachs, their clothes and turbans were covered with a thick layer of dust, and the blood that had just been splashed was glued into one dark gray stain after another, the eyes were deeply sunken, the surrounding black lines were dense, and the face was written with deep exhaustion, but a pair of eyes were indeed bright and bright.

When they entered the city, they counted the men and horses, and when they set out, there were twenty people, and when they entered the city, there were still sixteen people left, and everyone could not help but let out a cry of regret. After waiting for the horses to rest for a while, the leader of the letter cavalry sent Zhu Dadian a message that the pro-conquest army was about to enter Jiujiang within a few days, and completed the task of reporting. Jiujiang Dean! Jiujiang Dean! ”

Not to mention the joy of the soldiers and civilians in Jiujiang City, it took Zhu Youhua a day to complete the river crossing and successfully arrived at the Nanhuzui Wharf on the north shore of Poyang Lake, and the soldiers pointed directly at Jiujiang.
