"Get on your knees!"

The knee joint was kicked heavily, and Li Shiyuan's feet were weak, so he knelt heavily in the lobby of the Guangxin Mansion.

In front of him, Zhang Mingyang and Su Dingyuan, who were majestic in armor, looked at him expressionlessly, and several generals and soldiers standing around him also stared at him with unkind eyes, and that expression was like they were going to eat him, which made Li Shiyuan shudder.

"Is that Li Shiyuan, the deputy general of Guangxin?" Zhang Mingyang asked indifferently.

"Sin, sin will be exactly." Li Shiyuan swallowed his saliva and replied cautiously.

He was originally a general of the Ming Dynasty, and after the Qing army went south, he surrendered and became a Qing general, but now he was captured by the Ming army, and his heart was empty, so he naturally called himself a criminal general.

"The sin general Li Shiyuan, you turned your back on the court, betrayed the lord for glory, attacked and killed my Ming soldiers, slaughtered my Ming people, the crime is unforgivable, this official should have dragged you out to break the corpse into thousands of pieces, but this official is not a good person to kill, I will give you a chance, and then the official will ask about it, you must tell the truth, otherwise your life will not be guaranteed."

"Sin shall be condemned, and it shall be known and shall be spoken." Li Shiyuan kowtowed heavily and said.

"Well, this official asked you, how many Qing troops are there in Jiangxi? Where are they all located? Zhang Mingyang's eyes stared at Li Shiyuan tightly and asked.

"This ......" Li Shiyuan's brain quickly turned, recalling the correct answer that should be given to Zhang Mingyang, and after a few seconds, he said urgently: "My lord, in addition to the 2,000 guards stationed in the state capitals, there are at least 23,000 green battalions in Jiangxi that can be mobilized. ”

"Among them, Jiangxi ...... More than 15,000 people under the command of Yang Jie, the puppet governor of Jiangxi, are besieging Jianchang Mansion, Hu Yousheng, the chief soldier of the puppet Southern Jiangxi, is leading more than 10,000 people to garrison Ganzhou, and Xia Yiju, the governor of Jiangxi, is stationed in Nanchang. ”

Hearing that the Qing army still had at least more than 20,000 troops in Jiangxi, Zhang Mingyang and Su Dingyuan glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of solemnity in each other's eyes, but this trace of solemnity was quickly dispelled, because they noticed a detail, there was no Eight Banners stationed in Jiangxi.

In fact, there was a Qing generation, the Qing Dynasty did not set up a full city in Jiangxi, nor did it maintain the garrison of the Eight Banners for a long time, and the Qing court did not think it was necessary to station the Eight Banners Army in Jiangxi, because if something happened in Jiangxi, the Eight Banners in Jiangnan could be mobilized and supported at any time.

Although Zhang Mingyang and Su Dingyuan did not know the plans of the Qing court, they also knew that Jiangxi did not have a strong force of the Eight Banners, and although the Eight Banners were rapidly corrupted after entering the customs, they still retained a certain combat effectiveness until the Kangxi Dynasty, and the current Eight Banners were still a strong enemy in front of the Ming army.

Therefore, after noticing that there was no Eight Banner Army in Jiangxi, they all thought that there was no need to worry too much about the difficulty of the next battle.

Subsequently, Zhang Mingyang asked a few more questions, and Li Shiyuan also answered them one by one, and after asking what he wanted to know, Zhang Mingyang did not break his promise, but adopted Su Dingyuan's proposal to integrate Li Shiyuan and the Qing soldiers who surrendered in the battle of Guangxin into the punishment camp.

It is worth mentioning that in the battle of Guangxin, the resistance of more than 5,000 Qing troops defending the city was not strong, and they surrendered in the next few hours after the city wall was breached, and less than 800 people died in the battle, and the rest either became prisoners, or took off their armor and fled into the city to disguise themselves as civilians.

The military supplies hoarded by the Qing army in Guangxin Mansion also fell into the hands of the Ming army, so that Zhang Mingyang did not need to worry about supplies.

What surprised him was that in his eyes, the Cossack infantry who did not abide by military discipline did not do what he imagined to burn and loot after entering the city, and they did not commit any crime against the people in the city, which made Zhang Mingyang speculate wildly, is it that this group of alcoholic soldiers only has wine in their eyes, and nothing else?

No matter how Zhang Mingyang guessed, the impact of Guangxinfu's recovery quickly spread to the surrounding areas with Guangxinfu as the core, and the Gandong Righteous Army, which was marching to Guangxinfu, couldn't help but be annoyed that they were a step slow and didn't catch up with the battle to recover Guangxin.

However, they continued their march and arrived at the city of Guangxin on August 17, but Cao Dahao did not lead his army into the city and stationed there, but he entered the city with Fu Dingquan, the right attendant of the army, Zhang Zisheng, Pingjiang Bo, Feng Guoyu, and a small number of guards.

In Guangxin Fucheng, the four of them met Zhang Mingyang, the governor of Jiangxi and the governor of the Chinese army, Zhang Mingyang and Pingyang Bosu Dingyuan, as well as the military department Shangshu Jie Chongxi.

After introducing himself, the group took a seat, Cao Dahao, as the highest level official, naturally represented the Gandong Righteous Army and Zhang Mingyang and others to negotiate, he first reaffirmed that he was the orthodox court official canonized by the Yongli Imperial Court, and then expressed the hope that the Gandong Righteous Army could join forces with Zhang Mingyang and Su Dingyuan to resist the enemy and recover Jiangxi.

In his words, Cao Dahao did not show the slightest signal of fighting for power and profit, and his initial statement was just to tell Zhang Mingyang and Su Dingyuan that he was also an official of the imperial court, so that the two of them would dispel the idea of annexing his troops and horses.

He also did not publicize the identity of the governor of Zhejiang, Jiangsu, and Fujian provinces granted by the imperial court, and he and Jie Chongxi both saw very clearly that although his official title sounded very long, in fact, the real power was almost zero.

If he was stupid enough to use this identity to order Zhang Mingyang and Su Dingyuan to let them fight under his command, then the two of them would directly turn their faces the next moment, and something would happen to the relatives and the enemies.

No one who has survived under the encirclement and suppression of the Qing army until now is not a fool, so Cao Dahao is very wise to only represent that the Gandong Righteous Army wants to unite with the Ming army on the opposite side, and has no intention of fighting for power and profit.

However, Zhang Mingyang and Su Dingyuan both had the same opinion, they didn't think that this group of rebels who had just come out of the mountains still had combat effectiveness, and it was okay for them to carry out relatively easy tasks, and it was better not to let them participate in the battle with the main force of the Qing army.

Otherwise, it doesn't matter if the rebels are defeated, if the morale of the defeated army is affected, or if the Qing army seizes the opportunity to make some trouble, it will be a big trouble.

Therefore, after Zhang Mingyang and Su Dingyuan exchanged a round of opinions, they agreed to the cooperation proposed by Cao Dahao, and the two sides made a decision, and the Gandong Righteous Army also changed from then on to become the regular army of the Ming court.

Then, the two invited Cao Dahao and Jie Chongxi to the military map to discuss the next moves, Jie Chongxi pointed out that Fuzhou Fucheng was the transit point of the Qing army's Yang Jie's military grain and grass, and the grain and grass brought down by Yang Jie were placed in Fuzhou City, so it was heavily guarded, and a large number of grain ships set off from Fuzhou every day and went south along the Fuhe River to deliver grain to the Qing army camp outside Jianchang City.

If you want to inflict heavy damage or even annihilate Yang Jie's troops, it is indispensable to capture Fuzhou, as long as the supply line of the Qing army is cut off, it will be a long time, and the Qing army will inevitably collapse without a fight.

This task naturally fell to Cao Dahao - they had captured Fuzhou City as early as the fourth year of Yongli, and most of the soldiers were Fuzhou locals, who knew the local terrain very well, and they also had internal responses in the city.

Therefore, there was no other suitable candidate for the task of attacking Fuzhou City except Cao Dahao's department.
