Ling Jingyang suddenly slammed the white fungus soup in his hand to the ground, the white fungus and broken fragments poured on the ground, Wen Mandarin Duck was almost frightened, she thought that the white fungus was not in taste, and hurriedly bent down and said sorry to Ling Jingyang.

Her voice made Ling Jingyang's thoughts come back, he looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, and finally returned to reality, Wen Yuanyang is not her, and this is not the early morning eight hundred years later.

He was a little apologetic and said to Wen Mandarin Duck: "Mandarin Duck, the white fungus is very delicious, I remembered some angry things, and it has nothing to do with the white fungus, you go and serve another bowl, I will clean it here." ”

Wen Yuanyang's eyes were full of tears just now, and they disappeared in an instant, she returned to the kitchen to give Ling Jingyang a bowl of white fungus, Ling Jingyang used a broom to put the white fungus and fragments of the broom, and the guards and maids outside the door saw this, and they hurriedly came over to help, and swept the ground clean after a while.

Wen Yuanyang brought a bowl of white fungus to Ling Jingyang again, Ling Jingyang did not smash the white fungus angrily this time, but savored the craftsmanship of Wen Yuanyang, after drinking the white fungus, Ling Jingyang felt transparent, he and Wen Yuanyang said: "Let's go, take a walk with the officials." ”

But Wen Yuanyang refused, she was a very traditional woman, her body and mind belonged to Ling Jingyang, and she didn't want to show her face outside, so Ling Jingyang didn't force her, just took a walk in the yard, took a walk for a while, felt bored, and prepared to wash and rest.

This night, Ning Wuguan was exceptionally quiet, Ling Jingyang changed into sleeping clothes, hugged Wen Yuanyang to sleep, slept until midnight, suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the mansion, there was still someone visiting so late, Ling Jingyang let Wen Yuanyang sleep first, he put on his coat, carried a weapon to the courtyard, the guards saw him get up, and hurriedly said to him: "Dudu, it is Lord Zhou who asks to see." ”

Zhou Yuan, he's finally back?

Ling Jingyang hurriedly asked the guards to open the door and welcome Zhou Yuan in, under the light of the fire, Ling Jingyang saw Zhou Yuan's face full of vicissitudes, but his eyes really couldn't suppress the excitement.

"Zhou Yuan, you're finally back."

"My lord, I see Inspector Wang."

"Come on in."

Ling Jingyang took Zhou Yuan's right hand, and the two came to the lobby one after the other, Ling Jingyang asked the guards and maids to go to the kitchen to live and cook, he wanted

chatted with Zhou Yuan all night, wondering if Wang Yingxiong would accept his defection?

The soldiers who went to Sichuan with Zhou Yuan, only seven people came back with him, and the others died protecting him on the way, and these seven people were later promoted by Ling Jingyang to the small banner of the internal and external guards.

In fact, Zhou Yuan arrived near Ningwu Pass in the evening before yesterday, but he was surprised to find that the army in the pass was fighting, and he saw the Dashun army, the Daxi army, and the Ming army and the Qing army fighting.

In order to avoid being injured by mistake, he waited until the end of the battle, and the nearby people who came to Ningwuguan to avoid the battle mixed into the city, and when he returned to the city, he did not immediately meet Ling Jingyang, but stayed in an inn, and waited until the dead of night to report to Ling Jingyang.

He and Ling Jingyang recounted the hardships along the way, and their group entered Sichuan from Shaanxi, although Sichuan was not attacked by the Qing army, but it was also attacked by war all the year round, and some big cities were empty, but there were many people who had taken refuge in the mountains, and he concluded that there were still many people in Sichuan, and it was a very good place.

After he arrived at the border between Sichuan and Shanxi, he inquired and learned that Wang Yingxiong was not in Chengdu Mansion, but in Zunyi (Banzhou Xuanwei Division).

About half a year ago, Wang Yingxiong was appointed by the Hongguang Imperial Court to supervise the military affairs of Sichuan, Hu, Yun and Guizhou provinces, but the warlords in various places basically did not listen to the dispatch, he only took all the family wealth, raised soldiers and horses, and after the opening of the government in Zunyi, recommended the generals of Luo Yuxin, Hou Tianxi, Zeng Ying, Wang Xiang and other generals in Sichuan, which gradually gained recognition in the local area, and gradually gained a firm foothold in Sichuan, and the military leaders in various places basically obeyed the dispatch.

Zunyi is located in the middle of Guizhou and Sichuan, Wang Yingxiong here to send troops, after the Qing army retreated from Huguang and Henan, Wang Yingxiong ordered Yang Zhan, Zeng Ying two troops and horses to send troops to Huguang Chenzhou Mansion, Chenzhou Mansion was occupied by He Tengjiao not long ago.

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

After He Tengjiao withdrew from the Qing army, he also recovered some strength, and gathered tens of thousands of stragglers to fight bravely, the combat effectiveness was not strong, but the number was large, under He Tengjiao's order, stationed in Chenzhou Mansion, Yang Zhan and Zeng Ying tens of thousands of soldiers and horses blocked the way forward, Wang Yingxiong did not want to conflict with He Tengjiao, so Zeng Ying and Yang Zhan went north to Kuizhou Mansion and Baoning Mansion.

At this moment, suddenly from Dongchuan Mansion in southern Sichuan, news came that made him almost faint.

The Mu family who guarded Yunnan was stolen by Tusi, Mu Tianbo, the Duke of Qianguo, was forced to retreat to Xining, and the Ming army and Tusi rebels fought in the entire Yunnan region.

The civil strife in Yunnan forced Wang Yingxiong to mobilize troops and horses to garrison the border between Sichuan, Guizhou and Yunnan to prevent rebels from entering Sichuan and Guizhou.

But most of the troops subordinate to him were in northern Sichuan and northern Guizhou, used to resist the Yunnan rebels, and for a time he had no other army to support Mu Tianbo, and reorganized a new army, not only the combat effectiveness had not yet taken shape, but also needed more military salaries, at this time, Zhou Yuan came to visit.

Sent him to the Chongzhen Imperial Court and the five armies of the Governor Listening to Jingyang more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, Wang Yingxiong was ecstatic, he was suffering from insufficient troops these days, and he could hardly sleep at night.

Who is Ling Jingyang? However, he was able to come to the Qing generals who fought dozens of battles with the Qing army, which was an affirmation of him, and it could also enrich his strength and enhance his reputation.

As long as Ling Jingyang's troops enter Shu, they can also liberate the garrison forces of Sichuan and other places in Guizhou to a large extent, and he can mobilize the garrison troops of Sichuan, Guizhou and other places to go to the cities bordering Yunnan.

But he also thought that he was the governor of the Hongguang Imperial Court, and Ling Jingyang was the governor of the five armies of the Chongzhen Imperial Court, and Ling Jingyang came to vote, didn't this cause a contradiction between the Hongguang Imperial Court and the Chongzhen Imperial Court?

Wang Yingxiong has been in officialdom for many years, he only hesitated for a moment, and immediately agreed to Zhou Yuan and agreed to Ling Jingyang's entry into Shu, but he would not send troops to meet Ling Jingyang, as long as Ling Jingyang arrived in Sichuan, he would use Songpanwei and Long'an Mansion as Ling Jingyang's garrison, so that Ling Jingyang's army would rest in the Ming army and the Dashun army to deal with the threat of the Shaanxi Dashun army to Sichuan.

After Zhou Yuan got Wang Yingxiong's positive attitude, he took his subordinates back, and he was attacked by Tusi, routs, and rogues on the way to come, leaving seven guards, but fortunately, Wang Yingxiong supported him, and selected five hundred soldiers from the Zunyi garrison to escort him.

There were 500 soldiers escorting, Tusi and the rout did not dare to raid Zhou Yuan and his party, Zhou Yuan came to the border line between Shaanxi and Sichuan, 500 soldiers did not dare to enter the territory of the Dashun army, and Zhou Yuan also said goodbye to the escort soldiers here.
