The seven generals who wanted to emulate Wang Lanping's siege of Nanjing, when they determined that the champion army had been withdrawn and Nanjing was already an empty city, everyone did not have a trace of joy and a sense of accomplishment in their hearts, because when they led their own soldiers into the city of Nanjing, except for a few people named Huazi begging on the side of the road, no one came to greet them.

Seven people hung their heads and rode horses on the streets of Nanjing, the loss in their hearts made them feel deceived, this is more than a defeat to make people look up, in a blink of an eye the division of justice has been reduced to not only the officials do not want to see, even the people are not able to see the army of the troubled country, all this is only because Wang Lanping is gone, under the banner of going north to resist the captives, he Wang Lanping with the actual movement shows that he is not a chaotic minister, nor does he want to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the world.

Originally, I wanted to wait for the war to rush into Nanjing City to loot and loot, send out chaotic military wealth, and then push all the brains to the head of the defeated champion army, but now, not only did the wealth not be fished, but even the reputation stinked Nanjing Street, damn Wang Lanping, the goddamn Wang Lanping, the scheming Wang Lanping, how can you just leave, you are gone, how can we 'clear the king's side', how to flaunt loyalty and love for the king.

Not only did these rebels who wanted to take advantage of the fire to loot not reap any benefits in Nanjing City, but even the seven generals who thought they had the heavenly merit of 'King Qin's escort' did not reap any substantial benefits except for a marquis who had no practical use.

The seven people all thought that Wang Lanping was squeezed away now, whether it was possible to occupy the palace and give orders to hundreds of officials in the world, but Wang Lanping had already guessed that none of these seven people were fuel-efficient lamps, everyone wanted to cover the sky with one hand, and no one was convinced, so they almost didn't pull the rack to fight in a group.

Everyone finally settled down and didn't quarrel, at this time, the hundred officials left by Wang Lanping played a role, it was one after another to send it to the palace like snowflakes, and sent it to Zhu Yousong, all the folds were one, and the seven governors and generals who entered Nanjing were added to the knights, don't pick the door, and give them enough face and honor.

According to the arrangement left by Wang Lanping, Zhu Yousong personally led a hundred officials in the Fengtian Temple for these seven people to officially issue a decree, and sealed the seven Dingbian Marquis in one breath, and then promoted all the positions of the seven people to the position of the border army general, there is no distinction between high and low grades, according to the Yangtze River defense line, Wang Lanping planned in advance, from Songjiang Mansion in the east to Jingxiang in the west, and drew out seven major defense lines as a place to guard, and all the prefectures guarded by each person were sealed to them as their fiefdoms, this honor is not high, and only the Ming clan relatives have this qualification to enjoy the taxes in the fiefdom. Although there are many nobles with different surnames who are dukes and marquises, these people are all eating the court's money and are not allowed to touch the place.

Songjiang General Soldier smiled so much that he even grinned to the back of his head, it seems that this time he led the troops to Nanjing to make a lot of money, and within a few days, his grade was upgraded to five or six levels, but when he looked at the holy decree again, he was dumbfounded, Zhu Yousong gave him a Jingxiang Marquis, Xiangyang Supervisor, this is Zhu Yousong blind or deliberate, Xiangyang was not occupied by Li Zicheng a month ago, how can I take office, do you want me to go to Li Zicheng to collect taxes?

Not only is the Songjiang General Army like this, but the other six are no exception, the most infuriating of this is probably the Jiangxi General System, he came this time with the most soldiers, and it stands to reason that he got the most rewards, Zhu Yousong is really generous, and he gave him all the rewards of Hebei, Shanxi, and Shandong in one go, and sealed him as the Central Plains General Town, God knows, none of these places are in the hands of the Ming Dynasty, do you want to go to grab land with Duo Ergon?

At this time, none of the seven people had the idea of entering the imperial court, because as soon as Wang Lanping's army left, if he won, the champion army would be more vigorous, and he would be killed again.

When Zhu Yousong heard the embarrassment when the eunuch came back and said that the seven newly promoted marquis received the holy decree, he suddenly felt very proud, and finally raised the emperor's spirit under the tiger power of the Ming Dynasty, and his heart also felt for a while, Wang Lanping is really not simple, everyone is gone, and more than 100,000 horses can be played in disgrace, it seems that the Ming Dynasty is just around the corner to recover the northern Xinjiang, and I am about to become the master of the Ming Dynasty.

The Seven Dingbian Marquis received a reward that was higher than the sky, and in the scolding of the people, they walked out of Nanjing City in a gloomy manner, but they did not go to the fiefdom to take office, and they could not go, so they had to get together again, reconcile, discuss countermeasures, and set up camp again in the former Wang Lanping training army Xiangshan, waiting for the news from Jiangbei, all together to ask God for divination, and pray that the champion army would best be wiped out.

…………

The champion army of 30,000 people crossed the Yangtze River with the only remaining 300 warships of Zheng Hongkui and marched towards Yangzhou.

Liu Liangzuo, who was about to forcibly break through the resistance of the Dingyuan camp and return to Nanjing, heard that Wang Lanping had personally led the army across the river, and then the spies came to report, saying that the other seven people besieging Nanjing had already been released to Nanshan, and there was no sign of fighting.

Without waiting for him to walk out of 200 miles, he happened to encounter the 50,000 people of Kong Youde, the vanguard of the Qing soldiers who came to besiege Yangzhou, only one face, Liu Liangzuo's tens of thousands of horses were washed to pieces, Liu Liangzuo was cornered, led the only remaining more than 5,000 people to shave their hair and descend to the Qing, and now only Huang Degong is left in the town of Daming Jiangbeisi.

When Wang Lanping, who was on the march, received Song Dali's return to Liu Liangzuo to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, he actually laughed.

made Fang Guoan and Song Xian, who were traveling with him, inexplicably wonderful.

Song Xian asked, "Master Hou, General Liu's troops have lowered the Tatars, which has helped the Tatars' troops even more, and also increased the pressure on Yangzhou's defense, how can you still laugh?" ”

Wang Lanping looked at the generals around him, and pretended to smile mysteriously, "The broken tartar should be on this person"

Fang Guoan was even more puzzled, and asked, "Could it be that Master Hou knows that this thief will descend to the Tartars?" ”

Wang Lanping waved his hand, "Don't ask more, listen to my orders, Yangzhou, it's not the cemetery of you and me, it's the burial place of Duoduo, Song Xian, how far is this place from Yangzhou?" ”

Song Xiandao, "less than one hundred and fifty miles"

Wang Lanping nodded, and then asked, "Where are Kong Youde and Duoduo?" ”

Song Xian said, "According to the military report from the vigorous probe, it should have entered the boundary of Yangzhou, these two days, Tatar should be busy collecting Liu Liangzuo's remnants, it is estimated that the army will be able to come to Yangzhou in two days at most, Duoduo is still in Sizhou, the army did not move, but sent a 30,000-strong partial division, it is a starry night, it is estimated that it is to support Kong Youde"

Song Dali is now demoted to a pro-soldier, leading more than 100 soldiers to collect military information.

"Okay, give the order, speed up the march, before dark tomorrow, you must enter Yangzhou City, order Cao Dingjiao of Anyuan Battalion, and let him hurry to Yangzhou to meet, in addition, Song Xian, you personally come to 2,000 cavalry, go to delay Kong Youde's marching speed, don't fall in love with the battle, only harass his baggage rear team, and give me some time to rush to Yangzhou"

"Yes!"

Song Xian took the order and left.

The army has come all the way, and the fertile fields are full of weeds everywhere, these are all done by the general soldiers of several towns stationed in Jiangbei, and the abuse of the people is too much, it is impossible for Wang Lanping to collect some military rations along the road, and when he sees these Wang Lanping thinks of a person, that is, Zuo Liangyu, who is killing in Nanjing under the banner of 'Qingjun side', may not know the changes that have occurred in Nanjing City.

So, Wang Lanping personally wrote a letter, and then asked people to copy a thousand letters, and sent someone to send it to Zuo Liangyu's army, and then said that the generals said, as soon as this letter arrives, Zuo Liangyu will die, and everyone feels that this matter is too absurd, and it is difficult to become a method for Dingnan Hou to take people's heads for thousands of miles.

Wang Lanping's messengers had a total of 20 people, and they went to Zuo Liangyu's army along the state capitals, and along the way, they were lively, beating gongs and drums, and exposing every yamen along the way, these messengers would stop and display the letters written by Wang Lanping to Zuo Liangyu.

…………

Just after breaking away from Chizhou from the pursuit of the Great Western Army Ainengqi, Zuo Liangyu was physically and mentally exhausted, all the way to flee for his life, at this time he had entered the boundary of Huizhou, the 150,000 army continued to flee all the way, at this time it has run 100,000 people, you must know that the army is over 100,000, this command system is almost impossible to play, let alone a group of frightened deserters, Zuo Liangyu is worried that he will not be able to catch up with Nanjing, his soldiers will run almost, in the face of this situation, he is also at a loss.

When Zuo Liangyu was in trouble in the face of a large number of people fleeing, his spies also spread the news from Nanjing to his handsome case.

Zuo Liangyu, who was full of white hair and thin cheeks, stared at the handsome case in a daze, he was very reluctant to believe that all this was true, how could it be possible, how could Wang Lanping go north to resist the Qing Dynasty, you are gone, what should I do? If I am on the 'Qingjun side', you will become unknown in the blink of an eye, so you will become a traitor and a rebellious minister, this, what should I do?

In Huizhou City, Zuo Liangyu stopped the army, he had to re-examine the current situation, the 'Qingjun side' couldn't play, but the eastward escape must be carried out to the end, otherwise sooner or later he would be eaten by Zhang Xianzhong behind his buttocks, what should I do? What to do?

Zuo Liangyu couldn't afford to be sick, and his consciousness was a little trance, after all, he was old, he was sixty years away, and he fled for more than a month, and he was afraid that even the young soldiers couldn't stand it.

At this moment, Wang Lanping's messenger arrived, not only the messenger, but also the voice of the people and local officials asking the Hou, this was the first time that Zuo Liangyu was so loved by the people on the way to escape, he was a little dazed, but when he asked the reason, after reading the letter sent by the messenger, suddenly a mouthful of old blood spurted out, and in the middle of the night, he was dying.

Zuo Mengeng, the son of Zuo Liangyu, picked up the letter and looked at it, and his face was also blue, only to see a few words written on the letter: Ningnan Hou Zuo Gongjun saw: the younger generation Wang Lanping has sworn north with the seventh day of August, Ninghou Su is the pride of my dynasty, for decades, looking at the world, Lian is not old, now he is in command of 150,000 people, helping the decline of the Ming Dynasty, revitalizing the soul of the Han family, and listening to the people's recitation. Now reciting and reciting it to you, Jun said: The Ming Dynasty has my good jade, and it is not taught to become a river; The Ming Dynasty has my good jade, and it is in vain to offer loyalty to Wang Xichuan.

The words of the prince and the marquis, deafening, our younger generations are determined to regard the general as a model in this life, and the thief is prosperous, in order to inspire the subjects of the world, Lan Ping dares to dare to send this letter to a thousand letters, spread the world, and the Nanjing garrison commander Wang Lanping worshipped.

Zuo Mengeng was so angry that he tore the letter into pieces, overturned everything in the military tent like crazy, pointed in the direction of Nanjing, and scolded, "Wang Lanping, thief, you can't die well"

With this letter, Zuo Liangyu's more than 100,000 horses have become the mainstay of the Ming Dynasty's prosperity again, and have become the loyal and good generals of the Ming people's oral recitation, and at the same time, they will also attract the eyes of the thieves and the thieves, thinking that once these letters reach their ears, the world is so big, where is Zuo Liangyu's place, yes, in the palace of the king of Hades.

The news of Zuo Liangyu's death exploded in the army, and more than 100,000 soldiers and horses all over Huizhou were leaderless, making a crowd of birds and beasts scattered, and the Ming magistrate took the opportunity to dig up the corner of the wall and take in a large number of fleeing soldiers.

More than 20,000 people in Zuo Liangyu's remaining department supported his son Zuo Menggeng as the main general, crossed the river overnight, went out day and night, and went north to find the Manchu Ying Prince Azig, and only that side could give them a place to live among the heroes in the world at this time.

…………

Within the time specified by Wang Lanping, the champion army came to the city of Yangzhou.
