Chapter Ninety-Eight—Scouting

Lin Qu's apology, Zhang Yun didn't hear it.

Of course, what exactly did he think? Zhang Yun is clear in his heart!

Therefore, Zhang Yun did not choose to stay and try his best to persuade Lin Qu, and he did not leave any clues in Liu's mansion......

Instead, he chose to leave immediately, because Zhang Yun also thought very clearly, Kong Youde, an old traitor, should be a person who is very afraid of death, and under the premise that Duoduo and Geng Zhongming are already dead, he will definitely leave with the troops, but this time is not easy to determine!

Then after he leaves, Yan Yingyuan will be able to recover the whole of Jiangsu immediately, and it will be a little difficult for Dolgon, who is difficult to defend himself, to organize the next wave of attacks.

At that time, there will be no worries, and he will be charged with collusion with the Donglin Party, and the time will come to stretch out his black hand to the landlord class in the southeast half of the country......

Outside the city of Yangzhou, Zhang Yun carefully recalled the national map of later generations and the next national situation, so as to determine the next area of action.

Kong Youde will definitely be stationed in Shandong after retreating, and he will never dare to lead his troops back to Beijing City to wait for death so easily, plus there are eight traitorous merchants in Shanxi, and then there will be no place for the entire north to get involved.

And the southwest half of the country is the back garden he left to Li Dingguo, for Li Dingguo, who is brave and good at fighting, and his character is very good, Zhang Yun is still quite optimistic, so of course he can't touch his back garden.

Li Zicheng led hundreds of thousands of remnants of the defeated general, entrenched at the junction of the two lakes, and asked him to fight with the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

In this way, even Jiangxi may be regarded by Li Zicheng as his own territory, and it is not easy to move!

There is an old traitor Zheng in Fujian, but he is bent on surrendering to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he originally had to attack him, but this old boy has always had trade relations with the West, maybe he doesn't know how many muskets in his hands, and the muskets of this era are of course burned with fire sticks.

But when it is used against a certain person, especially someone like himself who is superior in skills and likes to walk alone, the effect is very good......

After thinking about it like this, Zhang Yun suddenly found that the only territory left for Chongzhen was Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui, and the places where he could do it were almost these three provinces.

Touching his head, Zhang Yun felt sad for Chongzhen, how bad is this mix? Only then did he, as a rightful emperor, get mixed up in this step!

……

After almost a month of moving around Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui, Zhang Yun secretly returned to Yangzhou at night with a shocking stack of landlord information......

In this survey, at least one household in each of the three counties is a large landlord family with more than 10,000 mu of land, and in some counties there are even two or three large landlords with more than 10,000 mu of land.

And the more deeply involved in maritime trade, the easier it is to become a big landlord.

Because the huge benefits brought by maritime trade are dominated by the deep-rooted land complex in the hearts of the Chinese people......

As a result, the number of such large landlords in the seaside prefectures and counties of Jiangsu and Zhejiang is obviously much larger than that of Anhui, an inland province, and the number of landlords owning more than 20,000 mu of land is also quite large.

Feeling the darkness and returning to Yan's Mansion, Zhang Yun immediately lit the lamp in the guest room arranged by Yan Yingyuan for him, carefully looked through the investigation materials in his hand, and wondered where to start?

With such a large amount, there is definitely no way for him to do it all, Yan Yingyuan has too few troops in his hands, not to mention that he will not allow himself to do so.

Just as Zhang Yun was frowning and thinking hard about who to take, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the small courtyard.

Yan Yingyuan's hearty voice also came, "I received a report from the next person before, and the lights suddenly lit up in the Dao Chief's room, Yan still didn't believe it, I didn't expect the Dao Chief to be here." ”

Looking at Yan Yingyuan, who was in a good mood, Zhang Yun scolded with a smile: "Wow! I can't imagine that you, Yan Yingyuan, have also planted spies around Poor Dao, and now you have been spotted by Poor Dao, what should you use to make up ......for it?"

"Planting spies? Dao Chief, you are serious, how could Yan do this? It's just that I'm worried that the Taoist Chief, before your injuries have healed, will be squeezed away by Lin Qu, a disobedient kid, Yan Mou is a little worried, so he ordered the people to pay attention to the Taoist Chief's room. ”

As soon as Yan Yingyuan's words fell, Lin Qu, who was following him, stepped forward with a little shame and said: "I didn't think about it before, after Brother Yan came back, he had already reprimanded him, and I hope that the Taoist Master should not blame Brother Yan, everything is Lin Mou's own opinion." ”

Zhang Yun waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care, and in order to avoid the embarrassment of Yan Yingyuan and Lin Qu, he deliberately asked about the situation in Huai'an.

Regarding Zhang Yun's question, Yan Yingyuan was a little strange, could it be that this Daoist Zhang spent a month recuperating in the deep mountains? He didn't even know about such a big thing?

Therefore, Yan Yingyuan immediately said with concern: "Let's not talk about the situation in Huai'an, what Yan is concerned about is, Dao Chief, what is your injury?" ”

Zhang Yun stood up and jumped, proving to Yan Yingyuan that he was all right, and then hurriedly beckoned Yan Yingyuan to take a seat.

Seeing this, Lin Qu hurriedly had a good eye, and retreated with a group of subordinates, while guarding the door himself.

When there were only two people left in the room, Zhang Yun thought about it and handed the information in his hand to Yan Yingyuan, and in his puzzled eyes, Zhang Yun had to explain.

"For more than a month, the poor road was injured, and he couldn't make any big moves, so he went to various places to run errands, and the people on these materials are inextricably linked to the Donglin Party......

Yan Yingyuan was shocked in his heart, and couldn't wait to look at the information in his hand, but the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, and the hands holding the information were trembling slightly!

After a long time, Yan Yingyuan closed the information and took a deep breath, "The Taoist chief collected these materials and should give them to the emperor to see, why should he show them to Yan?" ”

Zhang Yun smiled and said: "The people above make strategies, and the people below are responsible for implementation, so if you don't look for General Yan, who will you look for?" ”

After thinking about it, Zhang Yun added: "In view of the general direction of the Donglin Party, Poor Dao has already discussed it with His Majesty, just to avoid falling behind, so Poor Dao didn't come over with the holy decree to show General Yan, but if necessary, Poor Dao can immediately go to Nanjing City to ask for a holy decree for General Yan to send troops......

Yan Yingyuan stroked his forehead painfully, since ancient times, those who have shot at the landlord class have basically not ended well.

But now looking at what Zhang Yun means, I'm afraid Chongzhen wants to push himself out and carry this pot......
