In addition to the local garrisons in various prefectures and counties, Chen Wen in Huainan arranged three divisions, Jinhua, Yongjia, and Jiangdu, to deal with the Qing troops in Huaibei and Henan, and in Jiangxi, the four divisions of Danyang, Yuyao, Yuzhang, and Siming were lined up in Jiujiang, Nanchang, Yuanzhou, and Ji'an, and the remaining three divisions of Dalan, Minzhong, and Luling were in Quzhou, Fujian, Guangdong, and Zhejiang, respectively, to control the three coastal provinces. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It seems that there are no field troops in the richest area from the Qiantang River to the north to the Yangtze River, but whether it is the Jiangdu Division stationed in Yangzhou going south, or the Luling Division in Quzhou going downstream, it will not take long, especially today when Zheng Chenggong has lost troops and lost generals, it is unrealistic to expect the Manchu Qing Dynasty to send troops that are enough to pose a threat.

However, when it came to the two things of King Zheng Chenggongqin and Cao Conglong's rebellion, Chen Wen said a word, and everyone showed a serious look, and even Zhang Huangyan was quite thoughtful. However, Chen Wenzi did not give them time to continue fermenting, but directly explained his plan and inventory.

"Our troops are not many, and the situation in Huguang Province, through which King Qin passed, is complicated. The king decided to issue an order immediately, and the whole army of the Yuyao division was dispatched to attack Wuchang in the north of Huguang, and the Danyang division attacked the north bank of the Yangtze River to intercept the Fan thief. ”

The army is going west, Fan Wencheng will definitely not sit idly by, and those armies who are fighting him in the wild are not Chen Wen's opponents, but it is still possible to send cavalry to cut off the grain route and harass Jiangxi. Solve Fan Wencheng first, in fact, it is also a kind of deterrent to Sun Kewang, and tell him clearly, I am going to do it, you had better think clearly.

"There will be a delay in time, the Yuzhang division will set off at the same time to attack Changsha, and the four masters will follow up to attract Sun Yan's attention as much as possible and prevent him from trying his best to commit crimes despite the threat behind him."

The officials of the various ministries needed to implement it as soon as possible, and the meeting ended quickly, and Chen Wen did not leave anyone, not even Zhang Huangyan, but found Zhang Jun over, and after a moment of secret discussion, he returned to the palace to rest.

"Lady, as soon as you are pregnant again, I am going to go on an expedition, and I am really ashamed to be a husband."

Hearing this, Zhou Yueying shook her head with a wry smile, and then said to Chen Wen: "What the husband is doing is a big thing, there is no need to do this. It's just that this expedition, no matter what, will inevitably intersect with today. The storm pavilion more than 500 years ago is still there, and the husband is now no less meritorious than King Yue, and the concubine is really worried about whether there will be another Song Gao today, and whether there will be a traitor like Qin Hui and Wan Qiao. ”

Chen Wen had already expected this worry. When she passed by Hangzhou, Zhou Yueying visited the Storm Pavilion, although she didn't say anything, Chen Wen could also feel the panic.

Five hundred and fourteen years ago, what was staged on the Storm Pavilion was unwarranted, it was full of red rivers, it was the empty sorrow after looking up at the sky and howling, and the eternal pain left to the Chinese nation in that sorrow.

Today, five hundred and fourteen years later, the Southern Ming Dynasty, which was also on the verge of extinction and now has only half of the country, Chen Wen has gradually restored most of the area south of the Yangtze River from scratch, which is not inferior to Yue Wumu's great achievements. However, in this way, it is inevitable that the master will be crowned with high merit.

At that time, the existence of the other three of the four famous generals of ZTE, as well as the presence of many famous generals such as the Wu family Sanxiong in Sichuan, could make Yue Fei's light not so dazzling. However, the remnants of Zhang Huangyan have already surrendered to the Ming army of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Wen'an, and the generals of Kuidong under the command of Wen Anzhi are in decline, Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu are trapped in Yunnan, and Zheng Chenggong has turned to Taiwan to seek development.

"Those who cover the world will not be rewarded, and those who bravely shock the master are in danger!"

There are too many such examples in history, and what Zhou Yueying pointed out and Chen Wen did not know what he meant. Moreover, this is something that is difficult to avoid for any hero who wants to change his life.

As long as the banner of the Ming Dynasty is carried out, this possibility exists. However, the anti-Qing movement in the Southern Ming Dynasty died in infighting, and the Han family sons and daughters killed each other, and finally cheapened the Manchus. For example, while Chen Wen enjoyed the benefits brought by the banner of supporting the Ming Dynasty, he also had to be afraid, so he would have to endure humiliation and bear the burden again and again for so many years, in order to be able to solve the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the great enemy of life and death of Chinese civilization.

"I will save myself, for you, for our daughter, and for those who follow and trust me."

………………

Now the strength of Chen Wen's power will inevitably cause the jealousy of the Yongli court, and the two sides still maintain a minimum of decency, it is nothing more than Sun Kewang is on the side, and the Yongli court does not dare to provoke Chen Wen again; On Chen Wen's side, he hated the infighting, and he was full of satisfaction with the destruction of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and now under the banner of the Ming Court, he could not be interfered by the Yongli Court, but because of the existence of Sun Kewang; And Sun Kewang's side, because of the Yongli Imperial Court, did not dare to continue to fight against Chen Wen, and because of Chen Wen's existence, he did not dare to attack the Yongli Imperial Court, which also stemmed from the stability of this triangle.

The weakest Yongli court did not dare to provoke Sun Kewang, so he had to retreat again and again; Sun Kewang, who has an overwhelming advantage over the Yongli court, is jealous of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang tigers behind him; And Chen Wen was still accumulating strength to prepare for the Northern Expedition.

But this tripartite balance will be broken sooner or later, for Chen Wen, it will be the best solution until he raises troops to fight in the Northern Expedition, and then the two groups of people break out into infighting, but those two aspects may not let him get his wish. So far, Sun Kewang, who is most reluctant to get his wish, is obviously ready to break the peace, so he only has to see the move.

As soon as the mobilization order was issued, the chariots of the Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Ming armies were once again in operation. According to Chen Wen's plan, the number of troops used this time is still the same as when he attacked Guangdong last time.

The stall is too big, and the four divisions in Jiangxi are already Chen Wen's limit. There are still a large number of recruits in the recruit training camp who are about to finish their training, but when they complete their training and are assigned to various garrisons, and then select veterans from the garrison to enter the war barracks for training, I am afraid that the daylily will already be cold. As for the troops that completed their training at the end of last year but have not yet been formed, Chen Wen does not intend to slow down the progress because of this, and can simply stay in Jinhua as a reserve unit.

The order was issued, and he ran to Jiangxi in the distance as fast as he could. The Danyang division was in Jiujiang, the Yuyao division was in Nanchang, the Yuzhang division was in Yuanzhou, and the Siming division was in Ji'an. It's just that no matter which enemy he faces, Chen Wen's army is at a disadvantage.

After a day of preparation, early in the morning of the third day, Chen Wen boarded the military ship with the cavalry guards of the Yue Wangfu, which had been expanded to 600 cavalry.

The officials of the Yue Wangfu were still busy, and Chen Wen did not allow them to see them off, but Zhang Huangyan, the director of the Military Justice Department, who had the lightest task, was the representative, and the others continued to dispatch personnel, supplies, and other things in full swing.

On the dock, Zhang Huangyan seemed a little restless, and wanted to speak several times, but had to shut up because there were still others around. It wasn't until Chen Wen noticed this, instead of walking to a relatively secluded place, that Zhang Huangyan had a chance to speak.

"Furen, when you go to Huguang, you should take King Qin's rebellion as the priority, and the soldiers will be dangerous, but you must not hurt Your Majesty."

"Cangshui is afraid that I will bring Sun Rei, King Jin, and King Shu with me to serve the pot today, right?"

Zhang Huangyan said it to this point, how could Chen Wen not know what he meant, and even before Zhang Huangyan spoke, he already had this expectation, expecting that Zhang Huangyan would mention this matter.

"I only have less than 50,000 soldiers, Sun Kewang has nearly 200,000 troops, and the King of Jin and the King of Shu also have tens of thousands, so your confidence in me is too great."

Chen Wen said with a smile, but Zhang Huangyan had a serious face, this solemn matter, even Chen Wen had never seen it in the past two years.

"You are a famous general who can create miracles, Sun Kewang has a lot of troops, but is it possible that you really look down on that waste?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Huangyan shook his head, and then said: "Furen, I remember that last year, you sent troops to Fujian and Guangdong, and afterwards sent His Royal Highness King Lu's Xigong Concubine and Brother Rong, the prince of the world, to Kinmen to reunite with His Royal Highness King Lu. His Royal Highness King Lu mistakenly believed slander back then, and you can do the same. Now whether it is Fenyang Guo Linggong or Wuxing Chen Yongding, it is only up to you to decide. ”

Guo Ziyi and Chen Baxian, a rebellion in the history of peace and a rebellion in the rebellion of Pinghou Jing, are both famous generals who have the grace to reinvent the dynasty, but the former chose to abide by the way of the ministers and was respected as the prince of Ling and the father, and the latter established a new dynasty and was called a lonely widow. Chen Wen returned the prince of Lu to King Lu, and at the same time gave up the road of changing to the Lu domain. Now that the choice has come again, the temptation for him is even greater than before.

Zhang Huang said this, and Chen Wen couldn't help but become serious. Looking at it squarely, with Chen Wen's majesty, few people can withstand this coercion now, but Zhang Huangyan met Chen Wen's gaze without the slightest dodge.

A moment later, the guards had already finished boarding, Chen Wen looked directly at Zhang Huangyan's gaze, and his mouth was also so broken: "Director Zhang, the work of the Military Justice Department seems to be very leisurely." Do your own thing, the meaning of this king's existence in this era, I, Chen Wen, know better than you Zhang Cangshui, and I know better than everyone in this era. ”

With that, Chen Wen turned around and walked towards the warship. It was Zhang Huangyan who twitched in the winter river breeze, but his body stood on the dock like a rock, watching the military ship slowly move away.

………………

When Chen Wen's order was delivered, the troops on the Jiangxi side began to move. According to Chen Wen's plan, the first to move was naturally the Danyang Division and the Yuyao Division, as for the Yuzhang Division and the Four Ming Divisions who attacked the southern part of Huguang from Yuanzhou, they would take Changsha down first to scare and scare Sun Kewang, but the rest of the matter would have to wait until Wuchang had an eyebrow before acting, otherwise Sun Kewang would be defeated individually, and it would affect the overall situation.

Fortunately, as the capital of Huguang Province, it is precisely in the northeast of this province, and Jiujiang Prefecture in Jiangxi Province is in close proximity.

Mobilization takes time, but Lou Jiye and An Youfu looked down on Mr. Fan Wencheng Fan, who claimed to be Kong Ming's living, and even Chen Wen announced the dispatch of troops a few days after arriving in Jiujiang.

The Ming army of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Zhejiang sent troops, and Fan Wencheng got the news almost immediately. It's just that Fan Kongming couldn't have imagined that Chen Wen hadn't thought of attacking him so early, if Sun Kewang hadn't made the first move, it wouldn't have been his turn to be beaten at this time.

Suffered such an unwarranted disaster, Fan Wencheng has nothing to do, now the Manchu power has retreated, the capital is said to be still training a new army, Chongqing has withdrawn back to Baoning in northern Sichuan, and his southwest shogunate is already the last nail left by the Manchus south of the Yangtze River.

However, the weight of this nail is not at all, and it is enough pressure on three sides. The Kuidong Ming Army in the west, the Southwest Ming Army of the Qin Domain System in the south, and the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Ming Army in the east. On the other side of Kuidong, Yunyang and Xiangyang will hold the road; There is also Dongting Lake in the south, and the defense surface is greatly reduced; Only the downstream direction of Jiangxi is basically a situation where there is no danger to defend.

At the end of the first month, the Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Ming armies sent troops from Jiujiang, and the armies of the two divisions of Danyang and Yuyao, with the naval division as a link, marched together along the north and south banks of the Yangtze River.

"On the first day of the second month, Xingguo Prefecture of Wuchang Prefecture fell, and the guards opened the door and surrendered."

"On the second day of the second month of February, Qizhou and Guangji County in Huangzhou surrendered, and the defenders of Qizhou surrendered to the rebels. On the same day, the defenders of Huangmei County surrendered to the Zhejiang bandits in the direction of Susong. ”

"On the fifth day of the second month, Daye County, Wuchang Prefecture, was captured by Zhejiang bandits, and the defenders were killed."

"On the seventh day of the first month of February, Qishui County, the capital of Huangzhou, changed hands, and the defenders fled north."

"On the tenth day of the second month, Wuchang County, Wuchang Prefecture, fell. In the evening of the next day, the capital city of Huangzhou on the other side of the Yangtze River was captured by Zhejiang bandits, and the defender committed suicide and martyrdom. ”

“……”

This sealed battle report represents that the Ming army of Jiangsu and Zhejiang is like a storm and clouds, and it can take a county seat every one or two days, two or three days, and stride towards Wuchang City. And today, Fan Wencheng has received the news that the soldiers of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Ming are coming to the city of Wuchang.

In fact, it is reasonable to have this. Since entering the customs, the Eight Banners have always been the courage of the Green Battalion, and with the presence of the Eight Banners Army, even if they did not participate in the battle, the Green Battalion soldiers seemed to have added something to the state, and their combat effectiveness has greatly increased. However, with the shrinking power of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, there were only more than 1,000 Eight Banners left in the entire northern area of Huguang, and they were basically the Eight Banners of the Han Army.

As a result, the courage is gone, and the combat effectiveness is not inferior to the Eight Banners Army, and even more powerful Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Ming Army, those who can surrender without surrendering the city are already rare diehards, and it is not a new thing to surrender to the wind, just like when the Manchu Qing Dynasty just entered the customs, it can be called the same.

Fan Wencheng sat in the southwest shogunate yamen of Wuchang Mansion City, and the only people around him who could be trusted were the more than 1,000 Han army and eight banners, and there were many green battalion soldiers in the city, but he couldn't be trusted at all. However, the scale of this Wuchang Mansion City is not small, the city wall alone is nearly twenty miles long, and there are nine city gates, relying on more than 1,000 Han army and eight banners, even the city gates can't be taken care of, let alone others.

Therefore, from the moment Shunzhi decided to withdraw a large number of the Eight Banners Army and some of the elite of the Green Battalion, he was already an outcast. And he, an abandoned son, still had to collect as much grain and goods as possible for the Manchu Qing Dynasty before the Ming army of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Zhejiang, and transport them to the capital through Henan for the use of the Eight Banners Army.

"Master Jingluo, there are still boats outside the Hanyang Gate, while the city gate is still there, let's quickly withdraw to Jiangbei, if it's too late, I'm afraid that the sailors of the Zhejiang bandits will block the river."

"The old man can't leave, and he won't waste this position. Xunchen, once the city is broken, retreats to Jiangbei with the Han army flag, leaving Qingshan without worrying about no firewood. ”

The offensive of the Ming army in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Zhejiang was too fierce, and it was really difficult to say how long this city could be defended, after all, those green battalion soldiers were really not trustworthy.

However, Sun Sike, who is now the white flag of the Han Army, failed to convince Fan Wencheng, and even Fan Wencheng already knew his fate from the beginning.

As soon as the two of them finished talking, an officer of the Han Army Banner rushed in, bowed down in front of Fan Wencheng and Sun Sike, and startled them with one mouth.

"Master Jingluo, the green battalion soldiers of the small east gate have turned back, they have opened the city gate, and the Zhejiang bandits have entered the city at this moment!"
