After Yang Mingzhao left, Chen Ming looked at the pocket watch, it was not yet five o'clock. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info he was drunk, and he was sleepy, but he couldn't sleep well in the study.

Let's go to Liu Bangyun. Chen Ming is a nostalgic person.

At this time, Liu Bangyun's psychological surprise had completely dissipated, and he asked the maid to inquire what Chen Ming was doing, and when she heard that she was busy with business, she felt that she would not be idle for a while. After soaking her feet, she asked the maid to bring her a list of the five large boxes of books, and she fell asleep on the bed and looked at the long book titles happily. When Chen Ming came in, Liu Bangyun was woken up by the maid next to her, and she was busy getting up to serve, but Chen Ming stopped her. He took off his coat and sat down and said, "You don't need to get up, I'll lie down for a while." ”

There was also a smell of alcohol in his speech, and his face was a little red. Liu Bangyun knew that Chen Ming was drunk.

That's nothing to say. Her personal maid came in and waited for Chen Ming to take off her boots and pour water, and she gave the maid a look. Chen Ming doesn't know how long he will lie down? But it's dark for sure. Hurry up to the kitchen and instruct them to prepare dinner and ask for some soup and porridge to nourish the stomach.

The maid nodded to show that she understood, walked out of the room silently, and gently closed the door before leaving.

There were only the two of them left in the inner and outer rooms.

Liu Wanyun said that he had slept for a while, but he fell asleep after lying down for a while. Chen Ming's brain was dizzy, but his brain was still spinning about Shandong's affairs, the mixed Yuan Sect Army had already been divided into three shares, and the Yang family's surrender would make Liu and Fan think and think? What will the Shilin of Shandong think of the Han army? After all, it was the Mixed Yuan Sect who came forward to spoof some old Master Confucius, and he had also fallen on the embankment of the Yellow River before. The sewage of the Mixed Yuan Sect has a share of the Yang family.

Now the old master's P diagram incident continues to spread, and it has been brought to the south of the Yangtze River, and in the future, the entire gentry in the world will be scolded by the mixed Yuan Sect army, and they have not taken off the infamy of the Yellow River embankment, Chen Ming approved the Yang family's surrender, of course, he knows that the Yang family is also consolidating their position by using the prestige of the Fu Han Army, but will the basin of sewage on the mixed Yuan Sect also stain the Fu Han army?

Chen Ming has now agreed to the Yang family, he has thought about these considerations for a long time, and he has not measured a definite gain or loss, but he still accepts the Yang family. Chen Ming thought about it in his mind, it stands to reason that he couldn't sleep, but Liu Bangyun was too quiet here, he turned his head to look at the woman next to him, and he had already fallen asleep again, Chen Ming was also taken away by the silence of this room and the rhythm of the people around him sleeping soundly, and he fell asleep unconsciously.

Get a good night's sleep. When he woke up, Chen Ming had a feeling that he was more energetic and awake than he had slept all night.

Chen Ming read the Suzhou battle report delivered from outside the sleeping room, and the Fu Han army had comprehensively captured the strategic points in the north, east, and west of Suzhou, such as Hushu Pass, Yangcheng Lake, and Mudu Town, and the naval division battalion also went ashore from the south, as if it was about to completely encircle the 10,000 Qing troops in Suzhou City.

At noon today, Yin Jishan led a Qing army to counterattack Zhenze.

Chen Ming felt that the Qing soldiers in Suzhou City really couldn't sit still, and they wanted to escape from top to bottom. That's it, half an hour passed, and it was half past eight when I looked at my watch.

For dinner, there is a table of fragrant rice porridge, a plate of salted duck eggs cut in half, an urn of stewed tofu, which is a famous dish in the south of the Yangtze River, a cup of stewed pork ribs with yam, and stewed pork belly with vinegared cabbage and shiitake mushrooms.

A table of very, very home-style dishes, and all stomach-nourishing. Chen Ming smiled, and he also appreciated it in his heart. He took a salted duck egg first, and used chopsticks to rip all the egg yolks into the porridge bowl in front of Liu Wanyun's surprised gaze, this way of eating has never been done in front of her. This is what he learned in the south.

Chen Ming slept with Liu Bangyun that night, and only slept for an hour in the evening, and the energetic Chen Ming showed his strength, making Liu Bangyun collapse. The little brother's staying power is like following the enhancement of Chen Ming's physique and strength, and it has also been buffed.

At dawn the next day, Chen Ming got up and put on his clothes neatly, those clothes were leaning on the stove all night, not too hot and not cold, and they were warm when they were put on. Liu Bangyun, who was delicate and weak, couldn't do it when she thought about it, so she had to tell the maid to hurry up and pass the meal.

Chen Ming picked up two bowls of white porridge, ate the cage soup dumplings, and hurried out. When Liu Wanyun, who had slept for a while, woke up again, and when he got up to dress up, he was told by the maid that Chen Ming had gone to Suzhou.

……

In the early morning, when everything was silent, a glimmer of light on the eastern horizon carefully soaked the light blue sky, and a new day gradually moved from afar.

The first rays of sunlight shine on the city of Suzhou in the early morning, and under the morning light, the beautiful ancient city of Gusu is wrapped in a thin morning mist. Outside the city of Suzhou, the banner of the Fu Han army was waving in the wind, and the thin white mist could not cover the red, just like the cold of the winter in the south of the Yangtze River could not extinguish the fighting spirit of Peng Bo of the Fu Han Army at this moment.

Chen Ming was determined to pull out this nail, and the Fu Han army was also curious about Suzhou, which had the reputation of heaven.

There is heaven above, and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. This sentence is known to countless people throughout China. Those sour talents in the army, as long as they mention Suzhou, always show an intoxicated expression that makes many big and rough people's teeth sour, in order to show their fascination. After doing so much, the Fu Han army really has a kind of determination and will to win Suzhou from top to bottom. This is purely Chen Ming's consideration in military strategy, and it is also a need for soldiers to satisfy their curiosity.

It is said that Chen Ming also spent a year in Shanghai in his last life, but he has never been to Suzhou, which is very close to Shanghai. It's not that I don't have any time when I'm busy with part-time work, but I'm shy in my pocket. The last time he was outside Suzhou for a long time, but in the end he did not set foot in Gusu City, now he not only has to really pull out this nail close to Nanjing, but also to take a good look at the world-famous Suzhou garden scenery.

A large number of city residents fled from Suzhou City, and Yin Jishan, the governor of Liangjiang, also fled with his troops, and he led people to take back Zhenze County, but he didn't see him bring his troops back to Suzhou for a long time, but he just fled.

The people who wanted to leave had already left, and life in Suzhou had entered a dull rhythm, which was so ordinary that the officers and soldiers defending the city could not raise the slightest passion, and even made some people forget the precarious environment they were in. The only thing that reminds people of their enthusiasm for allegiance to the court is the call for someone to give money. This matter was opened in the city of Suzhou after the battle of northern Jiangsu ended with the victory of the Han army, and the official document presented by the government became a thing that must be done in the past period of time and in the current situation.

As the enemy gradually closed in, the attitude of the people of Suzhou towards their situation, as is often the case with those who see the impending catastrophe, not only did not become more serious, but became more rash. When danger is imminent, there are often two equally powerful voices in the human head: one that intellectually tells the person to consider the nature of the danger and the way out of it; The other voice is more rational and says that the impending danger is simply beyond your resistance, so don't try to avoid it. Hurry up and enjoy the last moments!

There are always elites and people who think they are capable of listening to the first voice, but among the general public, there are even more people who listen to the second voice. Now Suzhou residents are like that. Since the Fu Han army came to the south of the Yangtze River, the people of Suzhou have not been so relaxed for a long time.

Like the defenders of Suzhou, and like the Jiangning general Rong Bao, they all believed in their bones that they were simply powerless to resist the attack of the Han army. Now in the empty streets and alleys of Suzhou, there are not officials and soldiers who come to post notices, or shout along the streets: beware of spies, strictly investigate and do meticulously, the people of the Qing Dynasty are loyal to the monarch and patriotic, and protect the Qing Dynasty together, all of which are peaceful and make people forget the war. When most relatives and friends sat together to chat, they talked about who in which alley provided the government with the whereabouts of the detailed work, and how much silver they rewarded; Whoever else catches a fine work, how much silver will be rewarded......

Wu Xiongguang returned home, and the servant handed him two newly posted official documents from the government that day.

The first official document said that the rumor that the official army had begun to prohibit the people from leaving Suzhou was untrue. On the contrary, if a large number of people in the city were willing to leave Suzhou, this would make the burden on the officials and soldiers lighter. Because when the war was burning, the Fu Han army would not care about the deaths and injuries of the people in the city, and they bombed indiscriminately, which would fill the city with terror and cause a major threat to the lives of the residents in the city.

The second official document was still the same as before, and continued to call on the people of the city to join the militia, and the government's arsenal prepared all the weapons for them: knives, guns, rattan cards, shotguns, artillery, grenades, and so on. As long as they are willing to join the militia group, each person will be given one or two pieces of silver first.

Wu Xiongguang pondered. He thought of the changes in his battalion these days, not only did no one come to join the army, but some people fled. Even the escape of one patrol and one patrol made him not dare to draw from one formation as he did before, but a few people from each of the three or four formations were combined together.

The morale of the ranks in the city was really low to the extreme. Such an army, I am afraid that the Fu Han army outside the city will disperse in a hurry after a few shells, right? It is true that Wu Xiongguang is a native of Suzhou, but he has never had the idea of coexisting and dying with Suzhou. As early as when the dust settled on the battle of Northern Jiangsu, he knew in his heart that it was not good. Let his father move to Hangzhou with his family early, at that time, few people felt the danger, Wu Xiongguang and his father did not attract people's eyes at all when he left.

Now Wu Xiongguang only needs to think about his own team. This is his capital, thinking about his team, which people can be trusted. As long as the backbone is still there, as long as there is food and silver in hand, as long as their reputation is not lost, and the banner is erected, it will not take a few days to recruit hundreds of people. The key is these backbones, and if you want to run, you have to run with them......

……

In the camp of the Fu Han army outside the city.

Wang Zhizheng ate wotou and pickles with rice porridge, and all he thought about was his father, mother and brother. Since he was captured by the Fu Han army, Wang Zhizheng has not seen his father and mother for several months, and he doesn't know how they are now, and I don't know if they have also fled south with the tide of fleeing south...... (To be continued.) )
