Xu Ruyu turned over and dismounted, helped Zhao Jingyun up from the ground, and said, "If a master like Li Sixun hides his whereabouts, the Northern Five Counties Division will not be able to find out. ”

Zhao Jingyun got up from the ground and introduced the recent counties to Xu Ruyu in detail.

Fang Su led Xuanji, Ge Jing, and Zi Zhongnan to Xu Ruyu and said, "Except for Tian Wenguang and Chu Wenchang, the other three people who have escaped from Bayang City are here, Ruyu, you come to meet them." ”

When Xu Ruyu was in Wanling twice, the three of them didn't have a chance to see him, and when Xu Ruyu and Zhao Jingyun and others were talking, the three of them had carefully examined this world-famous strange man from a distance. felt that he was just a handsome and elegant man, with an indifferent expression on his face, and a pair of eyes that did not have any sharp light, but revealed a faint tiredness.

Xuanji thought of the people who died under Bayang City, and her heart ached, Xu Ruyu's momentum at this time was just like the indifference and tranquility of Xu Xing and Zhang Boyang, and he was tired and hated of Bingxie. Secretly: Although he is the main man, he is afraid that few people will know the entanglement in his heart. He whispered: "Xuanji has seen General Qingfeng." ”

Xuanji was wearing a light green dress, with a turquoise bamboo flute diagonally inserted behind her waist, her hair tied in blue light silk, hanging down her waist, and her eyes were as clear as a clear spring.

Xu Ruyu looked at Xuanji's beautiful face, remembered the girl who was wearing a white dress and a green bamboo flute pinned to her waist ten years ago, smiled faintly, and whispered: "My small characters and names are taken by Mr. Boyang, the father of Xuanji. Xuanji is listed under the godfather's door, and I am considered to be the same family, and the three of you will call me as brothers. ”

With Xu Ruyu's status, how dare Ge Jing and Zi Zhongnan make a mistake, they don't dare to shout, and they avoid standing aside with their hands down.

Xuanji smiled, revealing shallow dimples, leaned back and saluted, and said, "Xuanji has seen Senior Brother Xu. ”

Xu Ruyu laughed, pointed at Ge Jing and Zi Zhongnan, and said, "Are you two willing to work for me Jiang Ning?" ”

Ge Jing and Zi Zhongnan glanced at Fang Su, and the meaning of the inquiry in their eyes was clear at a glance.

Ge Jing and Zi Zhongnan kept their duties and did not dare to go beyond calling Xu Ruyu as their senior brother, so they intended to seek a job in Jiangning. Can Fang Suyan not know their thoughts?

Among the five children in Bayang, Chu Wenchang and Xuanji have the best talent and the highest achievements.

Chu Wenchang and Tian Wenguang have always been at odds because of Chen Shuyu. When Xu Ruyu was in Yongyang at the beginning, he organized a battalion of 4,000 feathers, and Chu Wenchang and Tian Wenguang each led a battalion under the rule of Chen Zifang. Under the instruction of Xu Ruyu, Yongyang has been implementing a policy of resisting the Chen forces, and Chu Wenchang and Tian Wenguang have not performed well.

When Xu Ruyu reorganized the political situation in Yongyang, he took back the military power of the 4,000 battalion army, and Chen Zifang, Chu Wenchang, and Tian Wenguang returned to Wanling. At that time, Chen Shuyu married Zhang Jidao, and Fang Su was relieved of military power by Chen Pre, Chen Ziyi and Fang Su lived in seclusion in the Houshan Thatched Cottage together, and Chu Wenchang and Tian Wenguang were under Zhang Jidao's command.

Chu Wenchang is good at military strategy, and the Chen clan has made great contributions to Suining, Bayang and other places, and has become the most outstanding collateral son of the Chen clan after Zhang Jidao, Fang Su, and Zhang Zhongdao.

Wanling and Jiangning are boundary, and both have the grand goal of dominating the world, perhaps before going north, Xu Ruyu has no clear hostility towards Wanling in his heart, but when the Hulan Iron Cavalry invaded the south, Chen Pre and Zhang Jidao did not want to resist the foreign insult together, but for the selfish interests of the clan, they sent troops to besiege Pengcheng, and the Qingzhou soldiers were stuck in Pengcheng, making the situation of Youji a dead end.

Xu Ruyu should have a decision in his heart, Chen Ang and many old people in Wanling are no longer obstacles to Xu Ruyu's plot to take Wanling.

Fang Su's gaze stopped on Xu Ruyu's face, only those who knew his surname well knew that his indifference at this time was his resoluteness.

Fang Su secretly sighed, lifted his expression, and said: "Gu Shida's soldiers have been besieging Chaojing for more than a month, and Xun Zhuwu covets it on one side, the Han court will fall, Hulan has gathered more than 100,000 troops in Mayi and is about to cross Yanmen, how can the world's self-proclaimed heroes stay out of the matter?" He pressed Ge Jing and Zi Zhongnan's shoulders hard, and said, "Ru Yu settles down in the south, and you should help him." ”

When Fang Su said such a thing, he also made his mind clear, and with his relationship with Xu Ruyu, there was no need to say anything extraordinary. Zhao Jingyun smiled and secretly thought: Fang Su and Fan Wenlong both have great talents, and they are not weak to Jiangning people, but I am afraid that it is the biggest gain of the adults who go north this time.

Xu Ruyu patted Fang Su's shoulder gently, turned his head and said to Luo Boyuan, "You quickly lead people to scout the road north to Fanyang." ”

Zhao Jingyun was taken aback and said, "My lord wants to go to Fanyang? ”

Xu Ruyu said: "Maybe before Fanyang, Hulan's middle road soldiers and horses have already poured into Youji. ”

Zhao Jingyun said: "General Wei has been authorized by the three governments of Jiangning to transfer most of the water battalion of Yongyang to carry out the battle of sea wolf predation, at present, the strength of Yongyang's water battalion is limited, and the Jiangning water battalion has to face the 20,000 sailors of Lingfengjing, and it cannot be ......lightly adjusted."

Everyone went north to Fanyang at this time, and when they arrived at Fanyang, the nearly 200,000 Hulan soldiers and horses that poured into Youji would completely block the way south. At that time, the only way to return to Jiangning was by sea.

Xu Ruyu's whereabouts have been revealed to the world, without the escort of the water camp warship, how can he pass through the waters of Qingzhou and the East China Sea by sea?

It's not that Zhao Jingyun can't guess Xu Ruyu's thoughts, but if he goes to Fanyang again at this time, he is afraid that there will be twists and turns, so it is far better to cross the river and return to Jiangning from Jeju, Bianzhou, and Qinghe while the news has not yet spread.

Zhao Jingyun looked at Fang Su, since Fang Su had made his position clear, it was most appropriate for him to dissuade him at this time.

Xu Ruyu smiled and said, "I know all this, you quickly send someone to contact the Jun family, I want to see Jun Zhuoyan." ”

Fang Su said: "I'll go see Jun Zhuoyan, and then I can go to Fanyang with him......

Xu Ruyu shook his head, didn't let him say any more, and said, "I need to go to this matter in person, don't dissuade me." Jingyun went and arranged it. ”

Zhao Jingyun saw that Xu Ruyu had made up his mind, and said: "Jun Xiaoyun gathered a fleet of 500 people and stopped at the mouth of the river, originally preparing for us to evacuate from Bianzhou, and they attracted some people who wanted to be unfavorable to us by sea, so I will send a letter to them." ”

Xu Ruyu nodded, looked at Fang Su, and said, "Zisu, how long do you see the situation in Youji?" ”

Fang Su said: "The Cai family's control over the central and southern regions of Youji is not quite strong. It is almost foreseeable that when Chu Shize led a powerful force composed of 60,000 iron cavalry and 100,000 foot soldiers from Fukou or Jingcheng into the central part of Youji, in the absence of reinforcements, the families in the south and central of Youji were very likely to lose the courage to resist in the face of more than 200,000 Hulan soldiers and horses. The offensive of the Hulan army in the central and southern parts of Youji can only be described as overwhelming. ”

Zhao Jingyun interjected and said: "Hulan and Yaoguangdian joined forces to open the passage to the western foot of Taihang, crossed the frontal defense line of Fanyang, and more than 200,000 soldiers and horses went around to the Cai family's weakest central and southern Hebei, not to mention that Hulan still has more than a dozen soldiers and horses stationed in Yancheng and Pingcheng, and at that time, it will be the Cai clan alone to face Hulan's 400,000 behemoth troops." ”

Xu Ruyu sighed and said: "I am poor in Jiangning's strength, and the transfer of 100,000 elites by the sailor may solve the danger of Youji, but the victory of Youji is also a tragic victory, but it makes Xun Zhuwu, Rong Yanmen and others finally steal the world." Where is the righteousness of the world, I don't want it today. Since the world's crimes and counties have begun to mess up the world, I will personally clean up these scattered mountains and rivers and return the world to a peaceful world. The words were sad and irrepressible, and Fang Su and the others sighed secretly when they heard it.

Wei Yan said secretly: If Mr. Shao and Mei Tierui heard this, they would be overjoyed, but when they heard it, their chests were jammed.

Xu Ruyu said to Zhao Jingyun: "You quickly draft a text for me, I have a military order to hand it over to Jiangning immediately." ”

Zhao Jingyun prepared the paper and ink and looked at Xu Ruyu.

Xu Ruyu thought about it and said slowly: "In view of the agreement between Jiangning and Wanling on the border of Yongyang, Biling, Tairu and other places to reduce troops and settle disputes, when Lingfengjing and Xu Bodang withdraw from Baishi, our department will actively move to Baishi, and we must obtain the area east of Jinshui and south of Cuiping Mountain, set up a new land and set up a war zone independently, transfer the Qingwei army to its territory, promote Zhang Xu as the head of the line, and Xu Tingyi as the left of the capital. With that, his gaze stopped on Fang Su's face.

Fang Su smiled gloomily and said: "Chen Yu is the selfishness of the clan, so that the situation in Youji has been corrupted to an irretrievable realm, you foolish want to seek the East China Sea, who can be sick in heaven and man?" ”

So far, the Nanmin Xingyuan has been set up, and it governs two-thirds of the original Nanmin County, including the land of four prefectures and six yi. Qingjiang Xingyuan is also equivalent to two-thirds of Nanmin County, with six prefectures and more than 40 counties. Jiangning is the smallest, and it also includes nearly 20 counties in Jinghai, Yongyang and Jiangning.

The area east of Jinsu and south of Cuipyeongsan includes the eastern part of Wanggang-eup, all of Jinnyeong-eup, and the southern part of Baekseok-eup, and the area is equivalent to Gangnyeongfu. And the southeast of its place is Jiangning Mansion and the east of Yongyang Mansion, which is classified as a government and is more suitable to be included in Jiangning Xingyuan.

When Fan Wenlong heard Xu Ruyu's dictation of the military order, he thought that he had set up a separate war zone in Zhenning to express his territorial ambitions for Liyang in the southwest of Zhenning, Jiangjin in the west, and Baishi in the north. After thinking about it again, the Qingwei army was stationed in its territory, but the elite of the Wanling army could not get out of the north, but to destroy Wanling's plan to invade Pengcheng in the north, so that Qingzhou could concentrate its forces in the north to guard against the Hulan Iron Cavalry. Listening to Fang Su's words again, secretly thinking about the meaning, the edge of this military order was directed at Wanling, seeing that Zhao Jingyun, Wei Yan and others were a little confused in their eyes, and secretly said: Wei Yan can't guess the meaning behind this military order, but I'm afraid that some of them are secrets between adults and the Chen family.

Xu Ruyu continued: "Xu Boying is also the commander of the Shifu Soldiers and Horses, Xiao Wuye was transferred to Sima Ya, awarded the post of General Sima of Qingyan, the rank of General of Jiawei, and chose to enter Putian in Southern Fujian, and assisted Liang Bao, the general of Southern Fujian, to exterminate the Yan clan of Yi'an. ”

At the time of the Battle of the East China Sea, Xiao Wuye was already the commander of the Mei family, and later because of the situation, he served in Wanling for an idle job, until Zhang Zhongdao invited him back to Yongyang from Wanling, and first served as a military captain of the fifth school, and then specialized in military tun. In Jiangning, Xiao Wuye's army is slightly unmatched, Xu Ruyu's affairs are getting heavier, and the two subjects of Yanwutang tactics and military strategy are taught by Xiao Wuye, and at this time he was transferred to Southern Fujian, which is to take on the heavy responsibility of exterminating the Yan clan.

Zhao Jingyun said: "To exterminate the Yi'an Yan clan, Li Gonglin cannot be missing. General Wei presided over the battle of sea wolf predation in Dongyang, and the situation in eastern Fujian gradually eased, Jingyun asked Longyan, Longquan and other eastern Fujian provinces and prefectures to cut the new garrison army, and transfer the reduced garrison new army to the Su Guard. ”

Xu Ruyu thought for a while and said: "Promote Li Gonglin to the captain of the Suwei Guard, the Longyan garrison will not be reduced for the time being, and the elite 6,000 will be transferred from the rest of the garrisons from all over eastern Fujian, organized into an army of the Suwei Army, and will go to Huizhou." ”

When the Gao Nanmin Xingyuan was first set up, in order to disarm the local army, the private soldiers of the family were integrated into the Nanmin garrison, with nearly 100,000 troops, plus the surrender of Nanmin, Xu Ruyu and Zongzheng Xunda fought for Nanmin, and got about nearly 200,000 troops, most of which were transferred to the military tun, but the Nanmin garrison still had 60,000 people, plus 15,000 Su guards in Nanmin, 15,000 people in Quanzhou and Fengzhushui camps, and the strength of Nanmin was as much as 90,000, which was the limit of Nanmin's financial resources.

Although the Southern Fujian garrison was under the command of the Southern Fujian Xingyuan, the Southern Fujian family still had a certain influence on it.

In the battle with Puji Island, Jiangning completely had the upper hand. Puji was unable to attack Nan Min from afar, and Nan Min only had the threat of the Yan family in the southwest corner. As long as the Yan family's worries are relieved, it is enough to garrison 20,000 garrisons, 10,000 sailors, and 10,000 Su guards in Southern Fujian.

A few months after the end of the Battle of Southern Fujian, Xu Ruyu finally freed up his hands to solve the residual problem of the Yan clan.

Xu Ruyu saw that everyone was silent, and said: "Hulan invaded Youji, and it will not be long before Rongyanmen enters Chengyu in the west. Gu Shida has besieged Chaojing for ten months, and he probably cheapened Xun Zhuwu in the end. Xu Ruyu looked at Zhao Jingyun and said, "Why did you say that the Gu family chose Gu Shida as the commander of the Eastern Army?" The cannibal general, the people of the western region heard his name and retreated thirty miles, and he really had a good reputation for fighting in the western region. ”

Zhao Jingyun replied: "Gu Shida is famous for his ferocity in the west, and he has expanded the land for thousands of miles to the west for the Gu family. The Gu family wanted to fight for Qin Chuan and chose him as the handsome, but it was a mistake. The various ethnic groups in the west live by the water, gather and scatter uncertainly, the strong beam comes, and avoids it, so Gu Shida conquers the west, and the ferocious can make war exploits. The foundation of the Qinchuan family is all in the past, and if you go to another country, it is useless, and if it is not necessary, you will not leave your hometown. If there is no Xun Zhuwu coveting one side, Gu Shida may be able to succeed. However, Xun Zhuwu's entire division is stationed in the east of Xijing, and if the people of Qinchuan can't bear Gu Shida's brutality, they will secretly welcome Xun Zhuwu into Xijing. ”

Xu Ruyu smiled faintly and said: "Jingyun wrote another military order: authorize General Wei Yu to control the Suwei, Xiaowei, Baiyi armies and Yihu armies in Fuzhou and Dongyang, and actively exterminate the Puji bandits entrenched in the Wenling area, and authorize General Wei Yu to have the right to dictate foreign affairs to the Yuhang Fan family. ”

Everyone was shocked in their hearts, and secretly said: As long as Wei Yu thinks that the time is right, he can launch an offensive against the Fan family.
