Nanyang, Henan, the garrison of the rebel army led by the Red Lady, the Red Lady is personally training the army under her command.

Taking advantage of the chaotic situation, Li Zicheng's rogue suffered a crushing defeat and fled in the direction of Xi'an, the Red Lady captured Nanyang and used this famous city as a temporary station for his army. After capturing Nanyang, she ordered the city walls to be consolidated and the armaments strengthened, while also beginning to recruit and expand the army.

All of this was Cao Yue's idea, and the red lady felt that Cao Yue's ideas to her were very correct, so she obeyed Cao Yue's arrangement, first developed in Henan, recruited and expanded the army, threatened Zuo Liangyu, and then considered others.

However, during this time, the red lady's mood was a little heavy, after all, she led too many people, after the expansion of the army, she led nearly 100,000 rebels, so many people to master her a female generation is a bit powerless, if Cao Yue did not send those capable generals, and some of the plaintiff's cronies, she really can't control all the horses.

But this is not what makes her most anxious, what makes her most restless is the letter that Cao Yue gave her last time.

She didn't know how much she thanked for reading the letter, and even the letter was curled, but she always carried it with her. In that letter, Cao Yue asked her to be his woman, follow him all her life, fight the world with him, and create miracles.

In fact, the red lady was not too surprised by Cao Yue's request, she didn't know why, it may be that after a few contacts, the two had an ambiguous relationship, and there were kisses and other affectionate actions, she kind of acquiesced to having feelings with Cao Yue. Li Yan is dead, although she is sad, but the last bit of psychological burden is gone, as long as she avenges Li Yan, it is not a big deal for her to remarry or have a personal relationship with Cao Yue.

But she didn't dare to agree, or didn't know how to respond to Cao Yue.

She knew that Cao Yue had already married a wife and became a lieutenant of the horses, if she agreed to him. It is impossible to be his wife, only to be a concubine. She also knows that if a woman with no status like her wants to marry Cao Yue as his wife, it is almost impossible, and it is not the right household in the end. But now, she has a little unrelenting concern for Cao Yue, and from time to time she thinks of this man who is younger than her.

She often remembered the lewd smile of this little man, and the scenes of several intimate contacts with her. Cao Yue is handsome. is also very magnanimous, and more importantly, he is a hero, a man who stands up to the sky, and a pillar of the country who saved the Ming Dynasty from fire and water. Such a man will be liked by any woman when she meets her, not to mention a woman like the Red Lady who has suffered emotional setbacks and needs comfort very much. Cao Yue treated her so well, and now he personally offered her to be his woman. Following the creation of myths together, the red lady has no courage to refuse.

But if she doesn't have the courage to refuse, it doesn't mean that she will accept it, she has been struggling.

this day. Before the training was over, someone handed over a secret letter from Cao Yue to her. After knowing that it was a secret letter from Cao Yue, the red lady immediately beat faster and handed over the training to others. I can't wait to read the letter.

It's just that Cao Yue didn't have anything personal to tell in this letter, but asked the red lady to lead the department to find a way to beat Zuo Liangyu and make Zuo Liangyu have scruples. I have to guard against it. Cao Yue told the Red Lady in the letter that he was ready to deal with Zuo Liangyu's men. After Zuo Liangyu's men and horses are to be solved, he will hand over his subordinates to the command of the Red Lady. Daming now has a female general, Qin Liangyu served as Shi Yan's Xuanfu envoy on behalf of her deceased husband, Cao Yue hopes that the red lady can become another famous female general of the Ming Dynasty, surpassing Qin Liangyu in prestige and achievements.

Cao Yue hoped that after solving Zuo Liangyu's matter, the two would be able to meet, and many things would be discussed in detail after meeting.

Cao Yue said at the end of the letter, I miss you, beauty, and the red lady's face flushed with irritation, and after spitting a few words hatefully, she felt sweet in her heart. In the end, she folded the letter with a complicated mood and stored it closely, so that the soldiers summoned the main generals in, and she had a new deployment-

Zuo Liangyu has fought with the Red Lady's men and horses several times, but how can these rabble led by him be the opponents of these tens of thousands of well-trained rebels led by the Red Lady? Originally, when Li Yan was in charge, the combat effectiveness of these tens of thousands of righteous troops was very strong, and later after the systematic training of the people sent by Cao Yue, there was a well-equipped musket battalion with Cao Yue's help, and the combat effectiveness became more and more powerful. The red lady obeyed Cao Yue's secret order, and recruited troops in Hunan to expand her power. After Zuo Liangyu suffered several defeats, he didn't dare to take the initiative to provoke the red lady again.

For Zuo Liangyu, the Red Lady Department has been stationed not far from him, which is a heart disease, which makes him very uncomfortable. But what made him even more uncomfortable was that the edict of the newly established imperial court to let him serve in Nanjing was sent to Xiangyang, and after seeing this edict and the subsequent appointment of the generals under his command by the Ministry of War, he almost jumped three feet high in anger.

He knew very well that the imperial court wanted to deprive him of his military power, and by promoting the generals under his command, he divided and disintegrated his troops and forced him to finally accept. Of course, he would not accept such an arrangement, so he refused to obey the orders of the imperial court, but he did not dare to give a clear reply to refuse the appointment of the imperial court. He has also been sending people to inquire about the movements of Gao Jie, Huang Degong, Liu Liangzuo, Liu Zeqing and others.

After learning that Huang Degong, Gao Jie, and Liu Liangzuo finally accepted the will of the imperial court and handed over their military power to serve in Nanjing, Liu Zeqing refused to obey the order, and led his troops north to be killed by his subordinates, and his troops were taken over by the Nanjing New Army, he knew that the next target for the imperial court to deal with was him. Whether he refuses or ignores it, the court will think that he is disobedient and disrespectful, and will send troops to suppress him.

The terrible combat effectiveness of the Nanjing New Army made him shudder, and the Red Lady tens of thousands of horses were cruising nearby, so he didn't dare to let go, and he already knew from some channels that the Red Lady was following Cao Yue's orders and had already been appeased by Cao Yue. The Red Lady has been fighting against other departments, and it should be the instruction of Cao Yue. Thinking of this, Zuo Liangyu really wanted to cut Cao Yue with a thousand knives, this guy made it difficult for him to sleep.

According to Zuo Liangyu's character, it would be the opposite, but many strategists around him advised him not to be impulsive and to seek a balance between many forces. Perhaps as the situation develops, there will eventually be an opportunity to resolve this huge problem.

In the end, Zuo Liangyu listened to their persuasion and prepared to take a delaying strategy. He submitted a letter to the imperial court, expressing his willingness to serve in Nanjing, and led a group of men and horses to leave Xiangyang and march to Nanjing. But a few days after leaving, he suddenly became seriously ill, and had to go to the table again, saying that he was unwell and could not travel long distances, and that he should first recuperate and then take up his post in Nanjing, hoping that the imperial court would understand.

Zuo Liangyu has also repeatedly stated that he will not disobey orders and disrespect, and will definitely obey the orders of the imperial court.

Cao Yue saw that Zuo Liangyu did not make a fierce confrontation and adopted a delaying strategy, he also breathed a sigh of relief, and asked the little emperor to reply to Zuo Liangyu, agreeing that he would recuperate first and then take up his post in Nanjing when he was well.

The matter of the soldiers and horses taking over by the soldiers and horses north of the Yangtze River is still a mess, since Zuo Liangyu is not in a hurry to rebel, then let him go first, wait to deal with the affairs here, and then pay attention to Hubei. But he still ordered the red lady to continue to put pressure on Zuo Liangyu. (To be continued.) )
