When Zhai Zhe arrived at Jiujiang, there were patches of rafters floating in the waves of the eastward flowing river, and occasionally floating corpses could be seen flowing eastward. Chen Huwei defeated the Qing court's naval division in Huguang with eighteen heavily armed ships, severed the connection between Jiangnan and Jiangbei, and pursued the victory to blockade the upper reaches of the Jiujiang River.

"Just give me another year, one more year"

After recovering Huguang, he can ensure the safety of Jiangnan. Only by removing the direct threat of the Qing captives could he free up his hands to solve this chaotic situation in Jiangnan.

The General's Mansion was just Ning Shao's General Military Mansion a year ago, and he needed more talents, talents who had read books.

He will only set up an enemy for himself, and the most formidable opponent now is still Qinglu.

Outside Jiujiang City.

The two camps were fifty miles apart, and Zuo Ruo handed back the military talisman arrow to Zhai Zhe.

In this battle, there is not much skill to speak of. The Qing court did not have many troops in Huguang, and there was no trust between Jin Shenghuan and the Qing court.

Zheng Zhilong captured Ji'an, and Zhai Zhebing captured Anqing.

Zheng's soldiers and horses entered Nanchang, and Jiangnan soldiers and horses entered Jiujiang. Jin Shenghuan was sandwiched by two ways and was miserable.

The water battle is an appetizer, and the battle under Jiujiang City is the main meal.

When Zhai Zhe arrived at the camp, everything was ready, and he only owed the east wind. Zuo Ruo did not dare to start a big battle in the absence of the commander, but all preparations in the barracks had been made. Yao Qisheng organized more than 20,000 people to come to help in Anqing Prefecture, and the artillery set up an artillery array on a small hillside in Dongcheng, dug trenches around it, and arranged wooden fences and mud walls.

Duoduo's defeat under the city of Hangzhou was a bloody lesson丨 He thought that his troops were strong, and he did not take the Ming army trapped in Hangzhou City seriously, and did not arrange a well-arranged position in the artillery array, and finally let Feng Qin's sneak attack succeed.

Hong Chengchou arrived in Jingzhou and strongly persuaded Luck Dehun Beyler to personally command the main force of the Qing army to reach outside Jiujiang City and protect Jiujiang.

The coup d'état in Nanjing could not be concealed from those who had intentions, and the Qing court had many spies in Jiangnan, which gave Hong Chengchou the opportunity to operate, and also gave He Tengjiao a reason for not wanting to go east. In fact, if He Tengjiao wants to go south, he doesn't need the holy decree of Emperor Longwu, if he doesn't want to, even if the city of Nanjing is calm, he has the same reason.

Changsha Province.

There seemed to be more soldiers in the streets than there were civilians.

He Tengjiao trusted himself to recruit new recruits from Yungui and Liangguang, those people were untrained, most of them were bandits from all over the country, and the security on the streets of Changsha was very bad.

Ten mighty men escorted a scribe to walk hurriedly through the streets, and Liu followed the wind before returning to Changsha from Kuidong. Back and forth, he is now the general's envoy.

The holy decree arrived in Changsha Mansion four days ago, and He Tengjiao received the decree, but there has been no response in the past few days.

The governor's yamen was in front, and Liu followed the wind to meet Gu Yinxi.

The mutiny in Nanjing City was a hidden mystery, except for Zheng Zhilong, who knew part of the truth after receiving Zheng Sen's secret report, everyone else was looking at flowers in the fog. Even Zheng Sen doesn't understand all the inside stories. Although this turmoil was led by Zong Mao, there is no doubt that Zhai Zhe is the center of speculation from all sides.

Subsequently, several holy decrees came out of the city of Nanjing, which seemed to prove this. Zhai Zhe became the biggest beneficiary of the coup d'état and became the general who commanded the war against the Qing captives.

He is a native of Yixing, and is a fellow villager with Zhou Yanru and Lu Xiangsheng, so his impression of Zhai Zhe is kinder than that of other literati.

Liu Suifeng prepared a heavy salute, which was not the same as seeing He Tengjiao.

The silver he needed only had to be withdrawn from the merchant alliances in various places. Liu Suifeng did not have an official position, nor did he have a field shop, but he was from the same family as Liu Quan, the god of wealth in the General's Mansion. As long as the amount is not particularly huge, Liu Quan is willing to use silver to support his own brother.

The power of the General's Mansion is getting bigger and bigger, and the subordinate civil ministers and military generals have also become a backer.

The servant was presented with a delicate wooden box.

Liu swayed with the wind with long sleeves and said: "It's just a small courtesy, not a respect"

Gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times. This box of yellow gold ingots was worth three thousand taels of silver. There are not many people in Jiangnan who can give this heavy gift.

Regardless of whether he is incorruptible or not, he needs silver now. In order to raise soldiers, He Tengjiao levied "caption" salaries in Huguang, eager to scrape the ground, and plug Yinxi is a child raised by his stepmother, and he is most short of silver.

"Liu Changshi, I have heard of a great name for a long time." Du Yinxi was very polite, at least in terms of reception attitude, so that Liu Suifeng saw the hope of success.

Liu carried people with the wind and said: "When the general sacrificed in front of the Lu cemetery, he often said that the people of Yixing were outstanding and highly respected by the governor, and they never had the opportunity to meet. ”

After the imperial court re-justified Lu Xiangsheng's name, Lu Gong was the glory of Yixing people. Zhai Zhe is a student of Lu Xiangsheng, and Du Yinxi, as Lu Xiangsheng's fellow villager, also wants to use this to get closer to Zhai Zhe. He was ostracized by He Tengjiao in Huguang, and his life was very unsatisfactory.

"The general's exploits in recovering Jiangnan make us ashamed" He remembered the battle to recover Jingzhou last year, and he still regretted that Huguang had almost shined with Jiangnan. At that time, the Qing court's defenders in Jingzhou were on the verge of collapse, and it only took four or five more days to storm the city. Unexpectedly, He Tengjiao was so cowardly, not only did he not capture Wuchang, but also lost Yuezhou.

"The will of the imperial court has arrived in Huguang, and I am ordered by the general to invite the vast army of Huguang to go down the river, what does the governor think?"

Liu Suifeng didn't look for He Tengjiao, he first looked for Yinxi, and the intention was self-evident.

Du Yinxi looked embarrassed, he only had more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and after the loyal battalion refused to go east, Huguang's troops were concentrated in the hands of He Tengjiao.

Today's talk is about a big event, Liu Suifeng's attitude is humble and polite, "Last year, the war in Huguang was unfavorable, and the general couldn't get away in Jiangnan, and now Jiang Ji is in Datong, and he missed the opportunity now, I am afraid that Huguang will be more auspicious." ”

Of course Du Yinxi knew, but it was impossible for him to spit out all his suffering, and He Tengjiao defended himself: "Huguang was defeated last year, and he was short of soldiers and salaries, and he wanted to go east, but he was afraid that Governor He would have more than enough heart and not enough strength." ”

"Last year's defeat was defeated, and the initial imperial court was ready to investigate Huguang's crimes, but the general tried his best to protect Huguang in front of the saint, so he won the fighter this time. At present, everyone is working hard, as long as they persist in passing this hurdle, they will see the sun as soon as the clouds are cleared. ”

Liu Suifeng hinted to Du Yinxi that He Tengjiao's position was not necessarily stable.

"As for the issue of food and salary," Liu Suifeng smiled, "as long as the soldiers and horses of Huguang capture Yuezhou, enter Wuchang, and open up the Yangtze River channel, the food and salary of the imperial court will naturally be able to be transported over." ”

At present, it is all the land endowment harvested by the various rulers, and the most fertile land in Huguang belongs to the Qing court. Jingzhou and Xiangyang are both under the control of Luckdehun. He Tengjiao has raised ** 10,000 soldiers in Hunan, which is already the limit, where is there still food and salary to supply Yinxi.

Liu returned from a trip to Kuidong with the wind to learn the inside story of the loyalty camp's refusal to go south. The thirteen remnants of the Dashun pushed Mrs. Gao and "a tiger" Li Guo as the leaders of the alliance, and accepted the imperial court to adapt it into the "Loyalty Battalion", which was originally intended to be more than one, but the battle of Jingzhou made them cold. He Tengjiao was stingy in giving the remnants of the Shun army an official and did not provide food and salary, which anyone with a discerning eye could see. Yuezhou lost the back road of the loyal camp was secretly attacked, and there were already rebels who suspected that He Tengjiao was borrowing a knife to kill people.

Gu Yinxi has no money in his hands, so please don't move these soldiers and horses, so he can only deliberately pretend to be stupid and not give a clear answer.

Liu Suifeng's heart was like a mirror, weighed for a moment, and then said: "Lord Fu led the troops east, and the general is willing to provide 100,000 taels of silver for military salaries first. ”

Although he had stayed in the camp of thieves, he had no friendship with the commanders of the Dashun army.

Plug Yinxi once had a friendship with the thirteen Dashun troops in Kuidong, and asked him to ask the loyal battalion to go south, so as to facilitate the unified command of Huguang soldiers and horses, which was conducive to the war against the Qing captives. Mrs. Gao and "One Tiger" Li Guo are the leaders of the loyalty camp, but the Thirteen Kuidong families are only a loose alliance. Many people in Huguang still regard the "Loyal Camp" as a thief, and it is the most convenient way to ask Yinxi to come forward.

"The general is willing to provide military salaries?" Plug Yinxi was pleasantly surprised. In these years, silver is strength, who wants to cheapen others for no reason.

Liu Suifeng nodded, and then said: "Jiangnan is expanding the army this year, and the food and salary are not abundant, but the general's meaning, at the moment, the war in Huguang is the most important. ”

This is what Liu Suifeng admires most about Zhai Zhe. The meaning of the general is very clear, for a period of time, only one thing is important.

After Zhang Mingzhen's death, Zhai Zhe was not carried away by the power in his hands, but took the initiative to take a step back.

Chen Zilong was the governor of Jiangnan, which was particularly important to appease the hearts of officials in various parts of the Ming Dynasty. Except for He Tengjiao, who is impossible to make friends with Zhai Zhe, at least he did not give Du Yinxi the impression that he is a martial artist in politics and domineering. He Tengjiao, Du Yinxi, Chen Zilong, and Guangxi Governor Zhai Shibao are all members of the Donglin Party, although they are also close to each other, but they have had friendships with each other.

In the dispute between the government and the government, as long as the face is not torn, both sides can take a step back.

Plug Yinxi promised: "As long as the silver arrives, I can supervise the loyal camp to the east." "He knew the crux of the Loyalty Camp. Liu came back from Kuidong with the wind and knew that Du Yinxi was not talking empty words. Mrs. Gao and others highly respected Plug Yinxi, because only Plug Yinxi in Huguang regarded these former thieves as officers and soldiers.

Whether it is Zhai Zhe or Plug Yinxi. In the eyes of people of insight, resisting the Qing Dynasty is still the only plan.

Liu withdrew from the governor's yamen with the wind and conveyed the news to Zhai Zhe through the secret camp. He is only responsible for negotiations, and the final decision must be determined by Zhai Zhe himself. 100,000 taels of silver is not a small amount, Chen Zilong is in charge of Jiangnan, and the silver is only afraid that it will still come out of the business alliance. The salt administration in Jiangnan is almost single-handedly controlled by the Shang League, and it should be able to squeeze out this silver

Two days later, Du Yinxi asked He Tengjiao for his life and went east to Yuezhou.

There is a court saint, He Tengjiao has no excuse to refuse his intentions, but he refuses to supply food.

Plug Yinxi personally went to Kuidong to meet the commander of the loyal battalion.

The Qing court concentrated its troops on the Huguang Line in Jiujiang and Wuchang, and the soldiers and horses on the Western Front were concentrated in Jingzhou, and the garrison in Yuezhou was empty.
