Occupying Wuchang, Li Yunzhong can be described as high-spirited, occupying the governor's yamen and convening generals to discuss matters.

Hu Yihuang, Zhang Suimou, Meng Shengsheng and other military-level generals arrived in the first wave, and they were happily talking about something together, sometimes laughing, sometimes shaking their heads, it seems that they are also full of joy about the capture of Wuchang.

Luo Xuan, Li Xiucheng, Li Shixian, Chen Qirong, Li Desheng and other regimental and battalion levels were much more restrained, each found a seat to sit down, and occasionally talked head to head and whispered.

After the most reluctant, Hong Xuanjiao, Su Sanniang, Yang Changmei, Xiao Yunmei, Xu sisters and other female generals also came in, and came to the seat specially prepared for them by Li Yunzhong and sat down, all a little nervous, and did not squint. However, it still attracted everyone's attention, in the past, there was only Su Sanniang who was the female general, and most of the time she didn't come, so it was a group of big men who were deliberating. Now not only have a group of new battalion-level generals been promoted, but these female generals have also been recruited, and they all understand that today's meeting is unusual, and Hu Yihuang and the others no longer speak, and they are all sitting and waiting for Li Yunzhong.

Li Yunzhong came to the hall and saw them sitting there quietly for the first time, as if there was something beautiful in front of their eyes that attracted them, and they didn't want to blink.

"Everyone, the capture of the three towns of Wuchang is a great joy, what's wrong? Not happy, huh? Li Yunzhong sat on the top spot.

Ling Shibai said with a smile: "Straight lady thief, look at your bear-like appearance, it doesn't make me feel uncomfortable." ”

Hahaha......

Hu Yihuang waited for everyone to finish laughing, and said: "Wuchang is a big city, located in the Central Plains, I think the Han can establish a country here." ”

Li Yunzhong saw that many people below nodded in agreement, and he was a little worried that they would lose motivation and plan to enjoy themselves in Wuchang, and the smile on his face gradually faded.

Zhang Suimou saw that Li Yunzhong did not think much of Hu Yihuang's words, so he said his thoughts: "Henan Province is empty of troops, and our army can take advantage of this to attack Henan, and then go north to Hebei and occupy Beijing, so a great cause can be accomplished." ”

Ling 18 agreed: "Yes, yes, break through the capital, cut off the head of the emperor Lao'er, and use it as a stool to sit on." ”

Hu Yihuang objected: "No, I'm afraid that before our army reaches Hebei, the imperial court will transfer all its forces to encircle us, and the north is where the cavalry comes in, and even if our army breaks through Beijing, the emperor can escape, there are not many stupid emperors like Chongzhen." ”

Ling Shibai shouted: "What are you afraid of, if the officers and soldiers come to one, I will kill one, and if they come two, I will kill a pair." ”

Xu Yuexiang saw that he was a reckless man, and he was unreasonable here, and sneered: "The official army wants to come with 100,000? What about millions? ”

Xu Yuegui knew that Ling Eighteen was Li Yunzhong's sworn brother, pulled down her sister, and signaled her not to talk nonsense, Xu Yuexiang pouted, and looked at Li Yunzhong with her head held high in disbelief.

Li Yunzhong had a headache and said: "Our army's strength is not strong now, Li Zicheng was defeated by the official army several times in Henan, and he made a detour to Shanxi before breaking through Beijing, which shows that Henan is really undesirable." ”

Meng Sheng figured out Li Yunzhong's thoughts, thinking that he had three points of certainty, and said: "Henan is easy to attack and difficult to defend, I look west to take Sichuan, Sichuan is the country of abundance, to the north you can attack Hanzhong, peep into Shanxi, Hebei, and south you can attack Yungui as a way back." ”

Li Yunzhong wondered, why didn't anyone propose to go east, how good Jiangnan is, what is the purpose of the rebellion, isn't it just to rob money and women, Jiangnan has the most of these two things!

Su Sanniang saw her sweetheart smiling on it, and relieved him of the siege and said: "If you want to talk about wealth, Jiangnan is the most, why don't our army go downstream, capture Nanjing, and follow Hongwu to drive out the Tartars, and the righteous people in the world will definitely come to vote when they hear the wind." ”

Jiao Liang exclaimed: "No, not to mention that the city wall of Nanjing is strong and the road is far away, not comparable to Wuchang and Changsha, the Qing army must deploy heavy troops there to defend, and besides, Jiangnan and east are close to the sea, our army has no warships, and it is easy to be surrounded by the Qing army." ”

Li Yunzhong saw that everyone looked pensive, but no one refuted, only went into battle in person and said: "Nanjing is the land of Longxing, which is of great political significance, and the reason why our army has won many battles with the Qing army is that on the one hand, our army fought bravely, and because they are not equipped with firearms on a large scale, if the imperial court buys guns and artillery from foreigners, then it is useless for us to be heroic." ”

Meng Sheng saw that Li Yunzhong liked Jiangnan, and hurriedly remedied: "Your Highness is wise, our army is the first to buy firearms from foreigners, and it will be easy to hit Beijing." ”

Ling Eighteen was a little disgusted by the rising flattery of Li Yunzhong, several brothers, he was the most spineless, and he had the heart to refute him, but he was pulled by Zhang Weikun next to him, and swallowed his words back unwillingly.

Seeing that Li Yunzhong was determined to go to Jiangnan, everyone also felt that it was good, put down the goal in their hearts, and agreed in unison.

Li Yunzhong was very depressed and beckoned everyone to dinner, thinking that there would be many people who suggested that he march into Jiangnan, but he didn't expect that in the end, he was singing a one-man show, and it seemed that the next time he discussed the matter, he would have to reveal his meaning to a few people, let them test it, and sit firmly in Diaoyutai.

Since it was decided to attack Nanjing, of course, it was necessary as soon as possible, Li Yunzhong sent Hu Yihuang's First Army as the vanguard on the same day, promising that all those who had meritorious service would be promoted to one rank, and the entire 8,000 people of the First Army immediately burst into thunderous cheers, and everyone was smiling and gearing up, planning to do a big job; in the Han Army, it was extremely difficult to be promoted, such as Luo Xuan, Li Desheng and other regimental levels, Li Xiucheng, Lin Qirong and other battalion levels, whenever there was a war, they acted as the vanguard of the whole army, repeatedly made meritorious contributions, and occasionally crossed the level to command units at the same level, but their posts remained unchanged. Now that I heard Li Yunzhong promise that I could be promoted, of course, I was full of energy.

Anqing City

Lu Jianying, the governor of Liangjiang, walked back and forth in the lobby like an ant on a hot pot, and sent more than 30 waves of spies to Hubei in turn to inquire about the movements of the Han army, for fear that they would go down the river and attack Nanjing.

Jiang Wenqing, the governor of Anhui, ran into the lobby out of breath and said in a panic: "Your Excellency, the ...... The Great Han Army is coming! ”

Lu Jianying's eyes were about to faint as soon as his eyes darkened, so he hurriedly held on to the table and asked, "Where have they been, is that Shouchun general soldier dead?" ”

Jiang Wenqing said: "Not yet, the vanguard of the thief army has just set off from Wuchang and has not yet arrived in Guangji County." ”

Hearing that the Han army had just set off, Lu Jianying rolled his eyes and said: "Bastard, the thief army is thousands of miles away, what are you panicking about, you are the governor of Anhui, and it is your duty to defend Anqing, I am going to Jiujiang to supervise the battle now, and I will go first." ”

Jiang Wenqing heard that Lu Jianying was going to the front line of Jiujiang to supervise the battle, and said with emotion: "The lower officials are willing to live and die with Anqing." ”

Lu Jianying nodded with satisfaction, since the thief army is advancing eastward, it is intended to be in the south of the Yangtze River, and the responsibility of losing Jiujiang is much lighter than the responsibility of losing Anqing, and if Jiujiang is lost, Anqing will inevitably not be protected.
