It is a good season for spring flowers to bloom, Zhejiang Jinhua Dongyang Aoli Temple.

Two servants dressed as a middle-aged man all the way up the stream, the mountain path here in the Ori Temple is winding, the stream is rapid, the waterfall on the mountain is down, and the front is the first waterfall in Dongyang, the Ori River. The environment of Ori Creek is quiet, it is the season when the mountain flowers are blooming, the stream is murmuring, the flowers are clear, and people swim in it is a paradise, how pleasant.

Next to the stream, there is a stone table, on which tea sets are scattered around. On several mottled stone benches, an old man with a gray beard sat in the first place, and next to him sat three middle-aged people with gray hair. These people are dressed in scholarly clothes, all of them have no crowns, and all of them are tied with scarves, and they look leisurely.

"Someone actually went to find Zuo Liangyu, Zuo Kunshan once fought against the thief Zhang Xianzhong under me, this Zuo Liangyu is too strong, how can there be any loyalty, a feudal town that does not obey the control of the imperial court! In recent years, it has poisoned the people, and the battle is miserable.

The one who spoke was Zhang Guowei, the former secretary of the Ministry of War, and the people on the side were Liu Fuzhi, the former squire of the Nanjing Military Department, and another middle-aged man who was about the same age as him, and the other white-haired old man in the first seat was obviously not ordinary.

"I, Jiang Can, have seen through this new dynasty, this Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng are in cahoots, the court is rampant, and several towns are intrigued, where is the hope of this new court? Who's for me?"

Liu Fuzhi's name is Jiang Can, Dongyang Louguan Jiang's, the word Taozhong, the number Pheasant Garden, the first year of the Apocalypse, Chongzhen Wuchen Huiyuan, the palace examination in the Jinshi, the examination of Yuyao County magistrate. After the expiration of his term, he was transferred to Shangcai Zhi County. Later, he successively served as the director of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War and the Tianjin Military Preparation Road. He has made great contributions in repairing the long-collapsed city wall of Tianjin, consolidating Tianjin's city defense, and preserving the grain from the south of the Yangtze River that arrived in Tianjin from the north. After the loss of the northern capital, he came to Nanjing, and after Ma Shiying came to power, he was ostracized and returned to his hometown.

Jiang Can shook his head as he spoke, obviously a little disappointed in the new dynasty.

The old man with white hair finally spoke: "Didn't the jade say that Zhou Yuji was completely usable?" This Zhou Yuji defeated Li Zicheng's hundreds of thousands of thieves in Shanxi, and he also fought with Jiannu many times and rarely lost! His son Zhou Huchen is a rising newcomer and a commander. In addition, Huang Degong is also good, the military discipline is also strict, his soldiers are strong and strong, there are Zhou Yuji and Huang Degong, as long as the court does not continue to fight, it can compete with Jiannu! ”

"Master, there is no need to question Zhou Cuibei's loyalty, but how many soldiers and horses does Zhou Cuibei have? The battle of Shanxi only took advantage of the terrain, and the battles with Jiannu were some small-scale operations, and now, once Jiannu went south, the remaining three towns were deserters, that is, Huang Degong helped, the defense line in the south of the Yangtze River was too wide, and the river defense stretched for thousands of miles. ”

This old man is Zhang Guowei's teacher Wu Qizheng, since the teacher asked, Zhang Guowei also expressed his opinion according to the truth, he didn't seem to be optimistic about the military situation of this new dynasty, and his words were full of worry.

Wu Qizheng fell into a brief silence, obviously his understanding of the current situation was far less than that of Zhang Guowei who was in Nanjing some time ago.

Jiang Can took a sip of tea, put down the teacup and spoke again: "Zuo Kunshan has nearly one million troops in Wuchang, and there are many people who can take it as a calculation, if this million army holds the Jiangfang before, plus the cooperation of soldiers and horses in several towns, what can Jiannu do to me?" ”

Jiang Can said that Zuo Kunshan is Zuo Liangyu, as for "there are many people who can be calculated", it means: There are many people in the Donglin Restoration Society who were suppressed by Ma and Ruan who defected to Zuo Liangyu.

"An army of millions?" Zhang Guowei also spoke again: "If Zuo Liangyu can fight, how can this so-called million-strong army be afraid of Li Zicheng's thieves, they are just some vassal people!" As long as Cui Bei's subordinates send 10,000 troops to deal with Zuo Liangyu's million-strong army, I am afraid that it will not take half a day to completely collapse Zuo Liangyu. It was a soldier trained by Zhou Xiaohu, the battle of Yang Liuqing in the past was one of the battles I experienced, and I know best how strong Zhou Yuji's soldiers are! At the time of the Battle of Shanxi, Zhou Yuji was already stronger than back then, and Li Zicheng's hundreds of thousands of troops were not blocked by Zhou Yuji in Shanxi. Not long ago, who didn't know Zhou Xiaohu's northern capital 'playing soy sauce'? Zhou Xiaohu's bravery is not blown! Zuo Liangyu wastes and! ”

"Zuo Liangyu is so unbearable?" Jiang Can questioned Zhang Guowei's statement:

"Zhou Yuji's subordinates are too few, only 50,000 soldiers, which is what worries people the most. Jiannu is now strong and strong, with the help of the victory and those who surrendered the army, Zhou Cuibei and Huang Degong may be difficult to fight against them! ”

Zhang Guowei did not answer the question, he did not mention the other three towns, let alone Zuo Liangyu, and completely pinned the hope of the new dynasty on Zhou Yuji and Huang Degong.

"That's exactly what happened! I heard that the naval armies of Suzhou, Hangzhou and Fujian have arrived in Jiangfang, which can be regarded as some help! Liu Fuzhi interjected, he had just returned from Nanjing not long ago, and he obviously had some understanding of the military situation.

At this moment, two servants who had rushed over came not far away.

A servant of Zhang Guowei greeted him, and the two sides exchanged two words, and the servant took a few steps back: "It's Master Liu's person from Yongkang, and he sent an important letter!" ”

What Master Liu said was Liu Fuzhi, and he beckoned: "Present it!" ”

Accepting the letter presented by the servant, the font and writing on it made Liu Fuzhi frown.

When I opened the letter, there was only one piece of paper in it, and the words on the paper were even more pitiful: "I am short of people, come to Yangzhou!" ”

The signature is Zhou Huchen's three words, and the other is the date.

"Wonderful!" Liu Fuzhi couldn't help but scream and handed the letter to Wu Qizheng: "Zhan Weng, look at it, this Zhou Xiaohu is doing things so well!" ”

Zhan Weng is talking about Wu Qizheng, and Wu Qizheng's name is Zhan Zhan, so Liu Fuzhi calls him Zhan Weng. After reading the content, Wu Qizheng couldn't help but laugh dumbly, Liu Fuzhi's evaluation was really accurate, this Zhou Huchen, who Zhang Guowei had praised many times, was a wonderful person.

Zhang Guowei and Jiang Can were very curious, and the two also came over.

"Brother Haoxuan, do you want to go?" Jiang Can read those words and couldn't help but ask with a smile.

Liu Fuzhi hesitated, how to say that he was also a high-ranking official in the imperial court, and he went to Yangzhou to rely on military generals, which was too faceless.

"Ma Ruan is in charge, Jiannu is wanton, it is the time when the warriors are dominant, how can I sit idly by! Cui Rong and Xiaohu are both kind-hearted people, and Brother Haoxuan Weishenme is not going? Zhang Guowei spoke, his eyes were a little foggy, obviously some words were not completely said, which made Liu Fuzhi even more hesitant.

Wu Qizheng, who had white hair, also spoke: "Zhou Cuihui and Zhou Xiaohu have never lived up to people, if they can be taught!" Big things can be expected! ”

Wu Qizheng and Zhang Guowei have already expressed that this is to let Liu Fuzhi put down his son and go to Yangzhou, so that he can influence the thoughts of Zhou Yuji's father and son. Zhou Yuji's father and son will never have any excesses towards their own people, and Liu Fuzhi will not be in danger when he goes to Yangzhou, so he can rest assured.

This is against Ma Ruan's behavior, Zhang Guowei's master and apprentice are obviously very optimistic about Zhou Huchen's father and son, given time, if Zhou Yuji's father and son can rise to strength, Liu Fuzhi can do a lot of things.

Seeing Liu Fuzhi's hesitation, Jiang Can couldn't bear it: "I, Jiang Can and Zhou Cuibei, are also old acquaintances, and I am also good at rectifying water transportation and military affairs, and I am willing to go together!" ”

Jiang Can can be regarded as volunteering, and the legendary experience of Zhou Yuji's father and son is obviously very attractive to him. Liu Fuzhi couldn't hesitate, since everyone supported it, and Jiang Can went with him, Liu Fuzhi decided: "Yangzhou is not a tiger's den, so why not go!" What's more, with Tao Zhong by his side, let's go and be a counselor for Zhou Cuibei! ”

This is not a scholarly atmosphere, everyone here used to be a high-ranking official of the imperial court, and went to a military general, and the status of a person with such an identity is already very low in this era. But at the same time, this act also has its purpose, a kind of political speculation, and the target is Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng.

Originally, he just wanted to find some people to help, but Zhou Huchen didn't know that someone had begun to calculate their father and son thousands of miles away, and he invited it himself.
