In Jinling City, Zhu Tong was also nervous.

At this moment, he had also received the news, and his face turned pale.

He said, "How can it be so fast?" What does the Governor of Liangjiang eat? ”

After the defeat of the naval division, the governor of Liangjiang mobilized the troops of Liangjiang to resist the Yingzhou army on the front line, and Zhu Tong retreated to Jinling, which was regarded as rebuilding two lines of defense to ensure the situation in Jiangnan, and on the other hand, he was also waiting for reinforcements from the imperial court.

But now, Yingzhou is approaching Jinling, which means that the governor of Liangjiang on the front line has been defeated.

Although this was expected, the timing was obviously beyond expectations.

You must know that Liangjiang is an important place, and there are not a few troops stationed, and the first defeat was due to the defeat of Neiying and the Sailor Battalion, the Sailor Battalion has never accepted much challenge, and in recent years, all kinds of ships have not been updated, and the imperial court's investment in the Sailor Battalion is not enough, and it is slowly corrupting.

Compared with the elite sailors of Lotus Island, it is indeed a lot worse.

Coupled with the internal traitors, the defeat is also reasonable.

But except for the sailor battalion, the other forces are different, and the strength is not so unbearable, but now it is ......

Let's ask Zhu Tong how not to panic.

"Your Highness, there are still many people from Ning Wangfu in the Liangjiang Army, and this defeat is because of this." A soldier replied.

"Damn!"

Hearing this, Zhu Tong couldn't help but scold, but the matter has come to this point, it is in vain to say anything, King Ning once commanded the southwest battlefield, and the sailor battalion, and operated in Jiangnan for so many years, no one knows how many henchmen are hidden in the army.

These people may not be visible in normal times, but when it comes to such a moment, it is undoubtedly a big trouble.

Of course, these people may not be so loyal, and they are dedicated to Zhu Kang's use.

The reason why this is so is nothing more than seeing the successive defeats of the imperial court, and the defeat of the imperial court makes these people unable to see any hope, in this case, coupled with the relationship with Ning Wangfu, maybe there is something in his hand that is held by Ning Wangfu, and as a last resort, it can only be so.

Kong Qiu was also on the side, sighing: "It's all because of the defeat of the reinforcements, the red-coated cannons were taken, the morale of the Yingzhou army is like a rainbow, and the garrisons everywhere have been greatly affected, so I'm afraid that it will ......."

He had a worried look on his face.

is still the previous sentence, Ning Wangfu may not really control so many generals, some of these people may be King Ning's former subordinates, or some of them have been manipulated by Zhu Kang, but they may not want to oppose the imperial court, the sailor battalion lost the first battle, and almost all those who should have rebelled rebelled.

The rest are some wavering, these people, if the court behaves strongly, there will probably be no problems.

However, the reinforcements were defeated, the red-coated cannons were taken, and they could not see hope.

Under the pressure of the Yingzhou army, rebellion also became natural.

"Zhu Tai, this waste, is simply not enough to succeed and more than to lose."

Zhu Tong couldn't help but scold, his teeth gurgling.

It's no wonder that there is a problem with the Jiangnan he guards, and the above is really to blame, and he can't escape the blame.

But in this situation, there is no point in talking about anything else.

Kong Qiu twisted his eyebrows slightly, subconsciously glanced at Zhu Tong, a little like he wanted to say something, when he was in the southwest, Zhu Tong and Zhu Kang had a good relationship, and the two trafficked Tianzhu hemp together, and even the boat of the Lotus Island sailor was built by Zhu Tong with the help of the Longhu boat.

Now Zhu Kang suddenly launched an attack on Lichao, and it is still the place where Zhu Tong is guarding, which is ......

He was a little unconvinced, and the light in his eyes when he looked at Zhu Tong became a little deep.

But after all, he didn't speak.

Zhu Tong didn't see anything unusual on the surface, he still looked anxious, and asked in his mouth: "Where is the Yingzhou army at the moment, and how is Jiangzhou doing?" ”

The soldier hurriedly said: "Back to Your Highness, the Yingzhou army will arrive soon, as for the Jiangzhou side, they did not attack it, but bypassed it." ”

"What do you say? Bypassed? ”

Zhu Tong's eyes flashed with a slight light, revealing a look of disbelief.

Kong Qiu was also stunned for a moment and asked, "You mean that the Yingzhou army did not capture Jiangzhou, but twisted Jiangzhou?" ”

"Not bad!"

The soldier hurriedly replied, "The Yingzhou army passed by Jiangzhou, and looking at the previous movements, it should have been going to Jiangzhou, but after that, for some reason, they directly gave up Jiangzhou. ”

As soon as these words came out, Kong Qiu and Zhu Tong couldn't help but look at each other.

Zhu Tong also showed a look of disbelief on his face, and muttered, "How is this possible?" Why did the Yingzhou army abandon Jiangzhou? ”

"Could it be because of ......"

Kong Qiu didn't continue to talk about this, because he knew that Zhu Tong understood.

Jiangzhou is that person's hometown, and the Yingzhou army deliberately bypassed this place, is it because they are afraid of something?

Or is it something else?

Neither of them is sure, but the Yingzhou army has bypassed Jiangzhou, and it seems unlikely that there is no factor in it.

Just when the two were confused, the news quickly spread to Changjin County.

Changjin Wharf.

The huge Banshu is preparing to embark on this voyage.

Yan Wenliang has also come to the dock.

Because his brother-in-law set off today, he naturally didn't dare to slack off, and led a group of officers and soldiers to see him off.

On the dock, Lin Bai led Wu Qiaojun and looked at the sea in the distance, surrounded by the guards of the Southwest Palace, Tie Ying and others.

Yan Wenliang opened his mouth and said: "Brother-in-law, this trip is dangerous, and you need to be more careful along the way." ”

Lin Bai smiled and said: "Big brother, don't worry, the Southwest Water Division Battalion has already set off, I just rushed to meet them, and it will be fine." ”

Yan Wenliang nodded when he heard this, there was such a big change in Jiangnan, as a courtier, he didn't want to leave the dynasty in such a mess, his brother-in-law had already expected him, and it was also in his hope.

Outsiders don't know what the strength of the southwest is, but he knows very well that the southwest sailor battalion is incomparably powerful, and it is natural to defeat Lotus Island.

What's more, there is Wu Qiaojun, the Red Eagle Flying General, and the Red Eagle Eighteen Cavalry accompanying him, which can ensure that nothing goes wrong.

What else did he have to worry about.

immediately spoke: "In this way, the eldest brother wishes you a smooth journey and a victorious start." ”

"Well said!"

Lin Bai smiled, hugged his eldest brother, and explained a few words about the northern front, the old man was desperate there, he naturally didn't dare to slack off, and the disaster in Hedong and the Red Lotus Sect were in turmoil, so the eldest brother cooperated.

In fact, the problem in Hedong is no longer big, so many internal should be uprooted, coupled with Liu Qingqing's defection, it is difficult for the Hedong Red Lotus Sect to do anything.

Immediately, the group was about to leave, and Lin Bai led Wu Qiaojun and prepared to board the boat.

At this time, a soldier came quickly, "Lord Qi, Jiangnan urgently, the Yingzhou army has approached Jinling......"
