Chapter 539: The Situation in Jiangnan

"It's a pity. Fubo. After half a ring, Liyang City quickly regained calm, Du Fuwei led the rest of the soldiers and horses and Lin Dong into Liyang City, and was greeted by Kan Leng, Wang Xiongdan was leading the army to quell the rebellion in Liyang City, Du Fuwei came to the body of Fu Gongyi, slightly stunned.

"Father-in-law, Fu Gong Yi colluded with Wang Da Hammer and others to conspire to rebel, although Fu Gong Yi was killed, but Wang Da Hammer and these people were mostly arrested, just waiting for the disposal of the father-in-law." Kan Ling said seriously: "There was a look of embarrassment on his face. ”

"Drive out all these people, I don't want to see these people, the prime minister has already supported a group of my soldiers, and these people are divided into the remnants of the army, and your soldiers and horses are still under your command, remember the prime minister's words, and select the elite in the Jianghuai army." Du Fuwei said with some unconvincing: "The prime minister's soldiers and horses are elite, why aren't your soldiers and horses elite?" The prime minister's soldiers and horses are professional soldiers, no need to produce, only for the sake of fighting, the court will give Yulu every month, will reward the field, as long as there are military merits, you will get more, if such soldiers can not form an elite, then don't mix in the Jianghuai army. ”

"The army is about to conquer Xiao Miao, and the tens of thousands of troops in the hands of the Marquis of Liyang will play a vital role. There must be no loss. Lin Dong also said out loud. In fact, he belonged to the prison army, but if something really happened to Du Fuwei, Lin Dong would not be able to benefit, and said at the moment: "Guanzhong was crowned a marquis by virtue of his military merits, although the title of marquis is good, but if he is promoted to the county duke, it will be the best." ”

Du Fuwei's face moved when he heard this, he was a city and surrendered, on the condition of Jianghuai, Li Xin sealed himself as a marquis, but this marquis does not have much gold content, and was despised by the nobles of Guanzhong. Although what Lin Dong said was more difficult to hear. But it also made Du Fuwei feel that the military discipline in Guanzhong was strict, at least his life would definitely be guaranteed, and it would not be difficult to climb one level in the future. Li Xin doesn't care about his identity.

"Thank you Brother Lin for the reminder." Du Fuwei nodded and said: "A good man should join the prime minister's command, and you will not bury your talents because of your background, Kan Leng, Wang Xiongdan, you two have to remember." Soon after, when you set out to fight Xiao Miao, it was the time for you to make meritorious contributions. ”

"Yes." Kan Ling and Wang Xiongtan glanced at each other, and they also sighed in their hearts. These two people can achieve such achievements, on the one hand, it is certainly the efforts of the two, but it is also related to the identity of the two.

"After I go back, I will reorganize my troops and horses, wait for the prime minister's order, and attack Xiao Mo at any time, and there must be no mistakes." Du Fuwei glanced around seriously, Li Xin handed over the Jianghuai Army to himself, which shows Li Xin's trust in him, and he thought that he would just make himself a marquis. Now it seems that this is not the case at all, and I still want to let myself lead the army to attack Xiao Miao, this is what it looks like to make military merits! Military merits are marquis, and in the future, as long as you have military merits. It may not be possible to seal the county duke, which is much better than Li Mi back then.

"Yes." Kan Ling and Wang Xiongtan glanced at each other.

The matter of Liyang soon spread all over the world, and many forces around suddenly gasped, Du Fuwei was really powerful. He even killed his own righteous brothers. The originally somewhat scattered Jianghuai Army was completely controlled by Du Fuwei this time, although Du Fuwei was disarming, but Wang Shichong and others did not dare to underestimate Du Fuwei. Although the number of Jianghuai troops is smaller, but it is more elite, 30,000 of the 80,000 troops are sailors, blockading the river, Li Zitong and Shen Faxing on the opposite side do not dare to attack at all, and the 50,000 army in Liyang is the elite of the elite, and more importantly, behind Du Fuwei, there are more than 100,000 troops, although these people are disarmed and returned to the field, as long as Li Xin gives an order, these people gather together again.

You must know that Li Xin's army, in addition to the regular army, there are also government soldiers, who maintain local order and security, these people join the training of the government when they are not working, and if there is a big war, these people can also join the camp of the army as reserve soldiers. With these hundreds of thousands of troops, who would dare to rashly attack Du Fuwei.

Jiangling City, although Xiao Mo is in his thirties, but now he looks as if he is in his forties, in order to resist Li Xin, gather military power, and kill Dong Jingzhen, the king of Jin, although the speed of seizing Changsha is very fast, but it is still affected in the army, and the military heart is turbulent, and after the military heart is stable, Li Xin has already fought Xinye, captured Xiangyang, and is only a few hundred miles away from Jiangling, Jiangling shook again, both Xiao Mo and Cen Wenwen felt the pressure.

After Li Xin occupied Xiangyang, he collected Xiangyang and surrendered his soldiers and horses, and got 40,000 soldiers and horses, making Li Xin's soldiers and horses reach nearly 100,000, which made the pressure on Xiao Mian increase again, and there was also a Qin Qiong who led an army of 20,000 to guard Kuizhou, and it was possible to enter Jiangling at any time along the Yangtze River, which made Xiao Mian have to send soldiers and horses to carefully defend Kuizhou Qin Qiong.

"Your Majesty, winter is coming, Li Xin's soldiers may be later, Li Xin's soldiers and horses are mostly people from Guanzhong, and they are not accustomed to the water and soil in the south of the Yangtze River, if they rashly attack Jiangling, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties, and our pressure will be less." Cen Wenwen whispered. He glanced at Xiao Yuexian, who was serving by Xiao Miao's side, this No. 1 beauty in Jiangnan has also caused a lot of trouble recently. Zhang Jin, the son of King Qi, fell in love with Xiao Yuexian, and Zhang Xiu also asked Xiao Mo in private, wanting Xiao Yuexian to marry Zhang Jin.

Cen Wenwen thought of this, and sighed deeply, although he killed Dong Jingzhen, but now there is another Zhang Xiu, and even Zhang Xiu is more arrogant than Dong Jingzhen, Xiao Mo even canonized him as Shang Shuling, and the position is even above Cen Wenwen, which still makes him not satisfied, and even asks for marriage, which makes Xiao Mo extremely angry in his heart. This made Cen Wenwen very worried, Xiao Mian was bound to repay him, he was relatively narrow-minded, he was really not a qualified king, and Zhang Xiu's various performances were basically the rhythm of wanting to die. Cen Wenwen believes that Xiao Mo may not be able to endure Zhang Xiu for long, what he needs is a reason and an opportunity, and he will definitely get rid of Zhang Xiu.

It's just that after getting rid of Zhang Xiu, how many people in the Great Liang Dynasty can calm down to deal with Li Xin? Cen Wenwen is even more optimistic about Daliang now, but Xiao Mo trusts him very much, so he has to continue to serve in the Daliang Dynasty. It's just that how long can such a Liang Dynasty last? Cen Wenwen has no bottom in his heart.

"Mr. Cen, there is news from Xiangjun Mountain that Du Fuwei has surrendered to Li Xin, and just the day before yesterday, he killed Fu Gongyi, and the 200,000 army has been reorganized into 50,000 elite troops and 30,000 sailors, although it has not yet been determined when to go south, but it will definitely go south to attack us." Xiao Yuexian said.

Cen Wenwen's body shook when he heard this, Du Fuwei surrendered to Li Xin, he knew it, he sighed Du Fuwei's vision, and at this time, he took refuge in Li Xin, at least he could ensure the safety of his life. It's just that what he didn't expect was that Li Xin didn't leave Du Fuwei by his side, or send him to Chang'an, but let him return to Liyang, rectify the Liyang army, and kill the auxiliary princess, so that the Jianghuai army would go to the chaff and become a powerful army, completely in the hands of Du Fuwei, and Li Xin's trust in Du Fuwei made Du Fuwei willingly surrender under Li Xin, and Li Xin had the land of Jianghuai at his fingertips, and nearly 100,000 troops.

At this point, Xiao Mian is obviously inferior to Li Xin, Li Xin's broad-mindedness will make Du Fuwei willingly attached to Li Xin, although Jianghuai is still in the integration stage at present, but this chaos is temporary, it is short-term, and soon this chaos will return to normal, at that time, Li Xin's army will attack Xiao Mian from another direction, and tens of thousands of troops will attack together, which is definitely not something that Xiao Mian can resist.

Xiao Mill's army is very many, there are 400,000 people, after a period of sorting, there have been 300,000 people gathered around Jiangling, part of Qin Qiong defending Kuizhou, the rest are resisting Li Xin, what I didn't expect is that Li Xin actually subdued Du Fuwei, so that Du Fuwei can attack Jiangling from Liyang and Chaisang. Du Fuwei's subordinates also have water divisions, and they can attack the various cities of Daliang against the river, so if they want to defend Du Fuwei, they also need a certain amount of troops. The army that really resisted Xiao Mo was only 200,000 people, so it really didn't have the upper hand against Li Xin's army of nearly 100,000.

"Cen Qing, how to solve this matter now?" Xiao Mo looked at Cen Wenwen and said.

"It's nothing more than desperate resistance." Cen Wenwen thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, you can let Shen Faxing and Li Zitong join forces to attack Jianghuai, so that Du Fuwei of Jianghuai does not dare to send troops, so that we only need to deal with Li Xin." Cen Wenwen sighed in his heart, although so, but in fact, it was still very difficult to resist Li Xin's attack.

"That's all there is to it." Xiao Mo felt tired, and he found that in the face of Li Xin's attack, he still had more than enough strength to do it. And more importantly, the soldiers under his command. Lei Shimeng, King of Qin, Zheng Wenxiu, King of Chu, Xu Xuanche, King of Yan, Wan Zhan, King of Lu, Zhang Xiu, King of Qi, Yang Daosheng, King of Song, these people either have 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers and horses in their hands, or 40,000 or 50,000, and the combined soldiers and horses of these people can resist half of their own country, and now there is a kind of tail that cannot be dropped, which makes Xiao Mo regret that he should not have canonized so many thrones in the first place, just like Li Xin, and now he is also a county prince of Li Jing.

Cen Wenwen glanced at Xiao Miao, his mouth opened, and finally thought about it, but he still didn't continue, he really wanted to tell Xiao Mi that in the face of this situation, if he surrendered to Li Xin, he might be able to get some good reputation, and even save his life. rashly resisted, and the soldiers were in trouble, and in the end it was definitely Xiao Mo who was unlucky, but it was basically difficult to make Xiao Mo give up the imperial power. Nor are these words that a courtier should say. (To be continued......)
