Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

A hundred oxen, a hundred horses, a hundred pairs of iron armor, and a thousand taels of silver, and chests of silk and silk.

This is the dowry of the great general.

It's not grand, because it's not a wife, it's just a concubine. For several days, Liu Suifeng was full of smiles when he saw the commanders, and they all congratulated him.

Gao Huijun hid in Mrs. Gao's camp and listened to her aunt talk about the rules of marrying a wife.

"Since you were a child, you have traveled the north and south of the river with King Chuang, you have seen the cruelty and sinister of the world, and you must learn to be obedient when you arrive at the General's Mansion."

Gao Huijun stroked the glorious silk and replied in a mosquito-like voice: "I know"

"Actually, in my heart, I never thought of letting you marry someone else as a concubine" Mrs. Gao sighed, "but that person is a general"

"I know, the general is a loyal battalion to rely on" Gao Huijun has seen the leaders of various thieves calculating each other and fighting for power since he was a child, and he didn't understand anything in his heart. is the death of King Chuang, and she also has an inexplicable relationship with those people, she doesn't want to be involved, she just wants to live her own life, just like her aunt.

"The general has two sons," Mrs. Gao still felt a little sorry. Her own biggest regret is that she couldn't give birth to a son for King Chuang.

"That has nothing to do with me" Gao Huijun is full of longing for her marriage. She had met the Great General once, and although he looked mighty, he was not as rude as the commanders of the Loyal Battalion.

The daughter of the Gao family, even Mrs. Gao herself, is not a strong person. If it weren't for that, Liu Suifeng would not have told the general about this family business. Saying goodbye to the general is a job that offends people, Liu Suifeng weighed the pros and cons, and still took this step.

Liu Suifeng has been in the loyalty camp for a year, and has been following behind Du Yinxi quietly, and his heart is far from being as honest as he seems. His civil official system in the General's Mansion is neither as good as Chen Zilong, a famous scholar of the Fushe, nor as good as the general's personal soldier Zong Mao, if he wants to change from a cloth staff member to a weighty civil servant, the loyalty battalion is his last chance.

He had an awkward past with the Loyal Battalion, but that was a substantial step. The loyalty battalion has no support in the General's Mansion, and Gao Huijun's status as the general's concubine is not high, but if these three can be combined, no one dares to underestimate it.

In the following days, the attack on Jingzhou City seemed to be a secondary matter, and even the outermost soldiers in the loyal battalion knew that the general wanted to take Gao Huijun as a concubine.

The commander of the thirteenth battalion came to find Li Guo and Gao Yigong, and they were both willing to accept to join the General's Mansion.

Marriage is marriage, and military is military.

Facing Li Guo and Gao Yigong, who came to visit, Zhai Zhe made it clear that he only needed 20,000 troops, and the rest of the soldiers and horses remained loyal battalions. He doesn't need to control those good and bad soldiers, his purpose is to control the loyal battalion.

Zhai Zhe gave Li Guo and Gao Yigong the power to elect the commanders of the soldiers and horses directly under the General's Mansion. The affairs of the Loyalty Battalion still have to be solved by the Loyalty Battalion itself, and Zhai Zhe has no intention of getting involved in this complex organization.

After several heated arguments, Li Laiheng and Yuan Zongdi finally got these two positions. Li Laiheng is Li Guo's righteous son, representing the forces of Li Guo and Gao Yigong, and Yuan Zongdi was elected by Liu Tichun and others.

The 20,000 soldiers were separated from the loyal camp, and Li Laiheng and Yuan Zongdi went to the Jiangnan military camp to collect them before they were transported to the uniforms, armor and firearms. They were equipped with the weapons of the Great General's Mansion earlier than Jin Shenghuan.

Each 10,000-strong team had 1,000 pairs of armor, 3,000 bird guns, and 2,000 knives. These are all produced by the weapons workshop in Hangzhou City. Li Laiheng stretched out his hand to take the heavy chain armor, his heart was full of joy, he had never used such elite equipment under the command of King Chuang.

The scale of the weapons workshop in Jiangnan is getting bigger and bigger, and it is gradually meeting the needs of the soldiers and horses of various departments, and Huguang is fighting, so it is given priority to supply the Huguang army.

When the 20,000 troops returned to the General's Mansion, they had to obey Zhai Zhe's orders and be separated from the loyalty camp from now on. But they will be able to get a bigger picture.

Zhai Zhe was in no hurry to let Li Laiheng and Yuan Zongdi fight right now, just like Zuo Ruo and Feng Qin's soldiers. They also need to familiarize themselves with the orders of the Ming army in Jiangnan and practice the use of various firearms. But a qiē has already begun. Jingzhou is a good place for drills.

Jingzhou City is like a lonely companion. Luckedhun harassed the besieging Ming army with light cavalry every day, and after trying to storm the camp twice without taking advantage, he gave up his useless efforts. The Ming army under the city of Jingzhou was powerless to attack the city, but after supplementing Fang Yuanke's 10,000 people and leaving 10,000 people left and right, and adding a general who coordinated the overall situation, it was no longer the current Jingzhou defenders who could shake it.

The excitement here has not yet passed, and on the day when the osmanthus flowers are in full bloom, a column of cavalry galloped from the south.

"Good news, good news"

The running knight's delighted appearance made the sergeant know that this must be conquering news.

The knight of the "Left General Army Reported Victory" went straight to the Chinese army and reported the victory to the general.

Zuo Ruo finally raised his eyebrows and exhaled

News came from Yuezhou Mansion that Zuo Ruo used Neiying to attack Yuezhou City yesterday night, and after half a year of hard fighting, the Jiangnan Ming army finally achieved the first substantial victory in the Jiangbei battlefield.

The battle in Yuezhou City was not over yet, and Zuo Ruo immediately sent a messenger to report the victory. He had waited too long for this moment, and he was also grateful to Zhai Zhe for his trust in him.

Zhai Zhe took a long breath, for Zuo Ruo, but also for himself.

I don't know if the official letter sent to the cabinet to punish Zuo Ruo arrived in Nanjing, depriving Zuo Ruo of the title of Marquis of the Army, and he will soon be restored, this is just a game played by the general, poor Fang Guoan can't understand it, and he dug a trap by himself.

After the Ming army captured Yuezhou, the connection between Jingzhou and Hanyang was severed, and the Qing court was cut off on one side of the triangle of the Huguang defensive line. The Huguang War began to show the light of day.

Zhai Zhe immediately sent an order to the book, ordering Zuo Ruo to behead all the Qing soldiers and generals above the 100 generals in Yuezhou Prefecture, and immediately lead the army to Hanyang City to lead the Ming army to attack Hanyang City.

Under the city of Jingzhou, it just opened a game.

After Luck Dehun led the army to Jingzhou, Zhai Zhe was not prepared to gain anything here, so he carried out various actions here in a row, but none of them were directly related to the battlefield.

Now that the problem was thrown in front of Hong Chengchou, after He Tengjiao was imprisoned, he lost the space to operate in Huguang.

Hanyang City is in danger, the most powerful mobile soldiers and horses are trapped in Jingzhou City, he only has one hand, but he wants to cover three places, how can there be no loopholes. In fact, the wisest strategy at the moment was to retreat to Xiangyang, as long as Xiangyang was in hand, the Qing court would have a gateway to Huguang, and at the same time be able to prevent the Ming army from entering the Central Plains.

But he is only a Han man, if the decision to give up Jingzhou and Hanyang Mansion is made, will those Manchus in the court understand his distress?

Hong Chengchou held the battle report, as if there were a hundred cats scratching in his heart, and the court of the Qing court was not much simpler than that of the Ming court. If there are people, there will be fights.
