Lin Zexu deduced that the advance came so quickly, it must have been mostly cavalry, and the logistics of the army were probably not yet in Guizhou.

Lin Zexu reasoned that the reason is very sufficient, the first point, the time for the army to prepare, unless Wu Sangui has been prepared for a long time, but at present, after Xiao entered the Shun'an Mansion, the result through various sources is that it is very likely that Wu Sangui was countered by Wu Pingzhi's unauthorized actions.

itself is at the key point of the three kings entering Beijing, Wu Sangui is like a bird with a frightened bow, he was made by Wang Pingzhi like this, he can't think about it, if he doesn't commit it, Shun'an will be lost, and the court will weaken him step by step, so it is better to take advantage of the situation to raise troops with lightning speed.

In the final analysis, it doesn't matter who is right or wrong for the imperial court now, the important thing is that Wu Sangui is now divided into three ways and invaded Hunan, Guizhou, Guangzhou and other places.

This second point, since Wu Sangui is mainly the forward cavalry, the pursuit of mobility and time from the perspective of these two points, logistics and the Chinese army can not keep up with the speed of the cavalry, this is the most important point, the first point in front is the speculation of Lin Zexu and Xiao Jin, and the last point is to seek truth from facts.

Lin Zexu said, "Whether Wu Sangui himself led the troops or not, it can be seen that this leading general is a veteran, with a cautious and bold style, such a large-scale cavalry-based forward, throwing down the Chinese army and logistics, and rashly breaking into the territory, just like a knife, sharp and fast, where it passes, I am afraid that the rest of the counties in Guizhou will definitely fall when they hear the wind." ”

Xiao Jin said, "These southern counties are unreliable, and they are praised for calling them wall-topping, and they are almost wearing a pair of pants with Wu Sangui." ”

Lin Zexu saw that Xiao Jin was so sure, and continued, "Whether it is as the adults said, even if it is a grass on the wall, if you encounter such a cavalry striker, I am afraid that it should be lowered." ”

From a historical point of view, Xiao Jin knows much more than Lin Zexu and them, as long as the history books are not too wrong, he nodded and said, "Wu Sangui has been fighting for decades, and his subordinates will not be mediocre, and the person who leads the army must have expected this situation. ”

Looking at all of you, he said, "This sneak attack logistics must bypass this striker, but even if we bypass the logistics to find them, the time in the middle is enough for the strikers to come to the city, and the delaying strategy we set before may not be realized." ”

Lin Zexu agreed, "The adults said to bypass it, but from the humble point of view, it is impossible to bypass it." Pointing to the place where Dalongshan Linxian is at the front of the army, "This is a big mountain, not suitable for cavalry marching, if you want to reach the rear of the forward, you can only Huashan Road, hard to face." With such a large cavalry, spies are indispensable, and it is almost impossible not to be discovered. ”

Zheng Banqiao and Butcher Zhu looked at the terrain of the sand table, and cooperated with what Lin Zexu said, the reason was simple and popular, and they both frowned and nodded in agreement.

After Lin Zexu's words, half a sound, everyone did not speak, and the cruel reality was placed in front of everyone's eyes.

Xiao Jin sighed, looked at everyone and said, "Hitting hard is equivalent to hitting a stone with an egg, which is not advisable." Let's think about it again, but what is the solution? ”

Even Butcher Zhu, who was usually very arrogant, rarely didn't scream, and looked at Xiao Jindao, who was about to walk out of the room, "My lord, if you want me to say, let's withdraw." ”

As soon as these words came out, except for Lin Zexu, everyone looked at Butcher Zhu in a daze, a little incredible. And Lin Zexu was not familiar with Butcher Zhu, so he behaved normally, and he had also mentioned to Xiao Jin before that it was the best policy.

The atmosphere in the room cooled down, Xiao Jin didn't reply, turned his head and walked out of the room, he was already beating the drum in his heart, even Butcher Zhu began to retreat, needless to say, everyone must have this thought, in the face of Wu Sangui's army, he began to have no hope, did he really want to withdraw? Compared with fame, wealth, power or something, how can your own life and the safety of the people around you be important, even if your life is gone, what else to talk about.

Shaking his head, he went out of the prefect's yamen, and saw a high-headed horse on the official road in front of him, sitting on a white-clothed man, and when Xiao Jin saw that the person who came was Xue Lingyun, he saw Miss Xue just sitting on a horse and watching him, and when he saw that Xiao Jin had found her, he lost his head and left. Xiao Jin chased two steps, and the person was gone.

With an inexplicable mood, he came to the backyard and saw Master Xue, who wanted to invite Xiao Jin to his temporary mansion for a meal at night, which could be regarded as a farewell, his horse team was gone, and the goods were also purchased by Xiao Jin.

Xiao Jin nodded after hearing this, because of the dream last night and Miss Xue's attitude towards him, he couldn't put up a score for Master Xue now, nodded and said, "It's right to leave this place of right and wrong, Wu Sangui's army will be in the city in a few days, and I will let my subordinates escort you out of the city tomorrow." ”

Listening to Xiao Jin's attitude, Master Xue seemed to be much better after a night, and said boldly, "I want to put Yun'er here with you, and you can help me take care of her." ”

Xiao Jin said vigilantly, "Why is this? ”

Master Xue said with guilt on his face, "It's all my fault for me and my wife, who promised the marriage of Jiafu before, but now people are blocking my house every day, just waiting to marry Yun'er, otherwise you will say why I came all the way to Yungui and brought her to do this, just come out to hide from the marriage." ”

After Xiao Jin listened, he stared at Master Xue's eyes, and didn't reply a word, in fact, he really wanted to scold this old thing, this kind of person is like this, why did you go in the first place, there is no regret medicine in the world, but when I heard Master Xue mention that Yun'er had to run out with him, he couldn't say this cruel word before he came to his mouth.

Seeing that his attitude was unclear, Master Xue gritted his teeth and said, "I really didn't know about you and Yun'er before, if I had known that you and Yun'er already had a relationship, I wouldn't have said it, he didn't say it, he was weak-hearted, and he was afraid that if he said such a shameless thing, Xiao Jin would scold him, and he wouldn't be able to get down the steps at that time."

Xiao Jin sighed, didn't care what Master Xue said, and said, "I'll tell my uncle the truth, Wu Sangui's army is right in front of me, and I don't have any chance of winning. I am a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect myself. ”

Master Xue, he had heard the people in the city and around him say that Wu Sangui was not the opponent of the imperial army, and even the notice said that Wu Sangui's army was not worth mentioning, but now when he heard what Xiao Jin said, he was a little retreating in his heart, looking at his eyes, this kind of thing should not frame him, and hurriedly said, "What are you waiting for, hurry up and pack up with me, and go on the road together, let's escape to Guiyang first and then find a way, no matter how powerful he Wu Sangui is, is it bigger than the imperial court?" ”

When he first talked about Guiyang, Zheng Banqiao hurriedly came to the backyard, his face was happy, and he arched his hand, "I have good news for my lordship, I just received an official letter from Mo Ke, the governor of Guizhou, and the imperial court reinforcements will arrive in Guiyang in a few days." “

Xiao Jin also said excitedly after hearing this, "Oh? Seriously, why did the imperial reinforcements come so quickly? ”

Zheng Banqiao shook his head and said, "This incident has only been in less than ten days, and the capital is afraid that it has not received Merck's twists and turns." ”

Xiao Jin wondered, "Where did the reinforcements come from?" ”

Merck said in the official letter that he was afraid that it would be too late to wait for a reply from the capital, and that he had asked not only the imperial court for help, but also the Shaanxi Wang Fuchen. This rescue came so quickly, it should be the soldiers and horses of Shaanxi. ”

Xiao Jin heard Zheng Banqiao say that it was a rescue from Shaanxi, Wang Fuchen, why is this name so familiar?

This person must be famous in history, but he can't remember who it is for a long time! Ignoring Master Xue and Zheng Banqiao, they looked at themselves suspiciously, walked to the stone bench in the garden and sat down, and as soon as they sat down, a clever man stood up and shouted, ", I know who this special person is, Moke, this pit." ”

Xiao Jin covered his face, he had an urge to cry, there is a good saying, he is not afraid of god-like opponents, but he is afraid of pig-like teammates. This pit is a real pit to kill them, this Wang Fuchen used to be a confidant general under Wu Sangui, and it can be said that he is the descendant of the lineage, although in the later period of the Ping San Domain, he also began to disobey Wu Sangui's words, but it is still not the same heart as the court. Isn't there a wolf in front and a tiger in the back?
