During the period when the letter arrived in Beijing, because he did not see the Qing army arrive at Muzaffarpur within the stipulated ten-day period, Marlborough had no choice but to put down his "shelf" and lead his troops to Ashsor. When he arrived, Yu Zhong ignored them and allowed them to camp outside the city of Azasor. Although Marlborough couldn't stop provoking during this period, and even gave more than ten challenge letters to Yu Zhong, moreover, during this period, Marlborough also let the coalition forces publicize that they had captured the princes and dukes of the Qing Empire, plus they took advantage of Yu Zhong's immobility to send a large number of envoys to make friends with various forces, as a result, many Indian kings who were already vacillating between the two forces of the Chinese and the Europeans once again began to lean towards the Westerners. These forces had formed an alliance with the Europeans, but because Yu Zhong came back from Burma and went on a killing spree as soon as he returned, many people remembered the strength of the Qing army in the past, and stopped to watch. However, this time, the Qing army even the prince was captured, because they knew that the Qing Dynasty was a unified dynasty, and the emperor had absolute authority, so many Indians believed that in this case, Yu Zhong could only be beaten and had no possibility of fighting back, and almost fell into a certain defeat. In addition, Marlborough continued to send troops to provoke, but Yu Zhong only couldn't hold on, which made many people think that Yu Zhong was afraid of the Europeans. As a result, Marlborough's invitation to form a coalition of Europe and India was responded to by many local Indian forces, and even Bangladesh behind Yu Zhong once again rebelled, and several groups of nobles were "bewitched" by the coalition army in Kolkata, and actually intended to take advantage of the opportunity when Yu Zhong could not be relieved to get involved in Dhaka!

In this case. Yu Zhong naturally did not sit idly by, and as a result, the reinforcements who had just entered India from Myanmar had something to do. You must know that the Qing court already attaches the most importance to military merits, and some generals even do not hesitate to slaughter ordinary people to pretend to be military merits in order to be promoted and make a fortune. The wealth of India has been famous in China as early as when it invaded here and sent various treasures worth tens of millions of taels of silver to the capital. Although these soldiers from Huguang came as reinforcements from Yuzhong this time, more of them were to be able to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune. When Song Zhu was selecting soldiers from various departments in Huguang. For such an opportunity, there are not a few soldiers in various departments who have caught fire and fought to the point of bleeding! Originally, that Song Zhu heard that Yu Zhong's military discipline was very strict, and if he committed a crime, he might be killed by Yu Zhong without asking, so he kept telling his subordinates to be honest and not to cause trouble, so as not to die before the master "sends"! But. He didn't expect that just a few days after the vast army of Huguang arrived in India, Yu Zhong sent them a wisp of "Tianlun Voice": Yugara surrendered and rebelled, and his behavior was extremely despicable. However, the commander had to lead the troops against the Xikou army, and it was difficult to withdraw, so he specially ordered the Jingzhou general Song Zhu to lead his troops to quell the rebellion. Wherever the army goes, show no mercy, all traitors. No matter how big or small the crime is, all the nine clans will be punished! The rebellious property was all used as military funds, and General Songzhu allocated it himself......

This time. Song Zhu and his vast army of the lake are happy! The whole army swept away the boredom of marching for many days, and there was jubilation everywhere!

is so happy, not only because they can have military merits to stand up for and be promoted to make a fortune immediately, the key is that they have a handwritten warrant from Yu Zhongdi, they are equivalent to having a talisman, even if they have done too much, there is also Yu Zhong, the general Zhenyuan, in front of him, and there is no need to be afraid of anything, that is to say. They can do almost anything. And what made them even happier was that Yu Zhong actually allowed Songzhu to mix the loot by himself...... It's pie in the sky!

And so, the people of Bengal who betrayed again poured blood mold! They didn't know that in the eyes of the vast number of soldiers and soldiers in the land and lake who had long been holding their breath and wanted to be promoted to become rich, they had become a plate of fragrant delicacy! By the time they reacted, it was too late, all the nobles and wealthy people in all the regions of Bengal that showed signs of rebellion...... It's all! They were all sent to hell by this army of Hu, which was more ferocious than the central part of the country, and incidentally, many unknown Indian people had to ascend to heaven in advance. …… can be entrusted by Kangxi to send to the front line to help the war, although Song Zhu is from the famous and corrupt Eight Banners Army, but he is not as unbearable as those of his colleagues, on the contrary, this person not only knows how to use soldiers, but also is good at raid tactics. Although he only brought less than 3,000 cavalry from Huguang all the way, it was these 3,000 cavalry that almost became the lifeline of those Bengali nobles. The erratic blows, the sudden raids, and the strong advance of the army became the main means by which Songzhu quickly quelled the Bengali rebellion.

In this way, when Kangxi's holy decree of "Aixinjue Luo is not captured" was transmitted to India, Songzhu almost completed the task delivered by Yu Zhong, and arrived at Asansol, who was stationed in Yuzhong, with his own army that had already killed red-eyed people in a short period of time and Kangxi's holy decree one after another.

……

"The last general Songzhu, meet the general!"

His subordinates were all red-eyed, and they were all dazzled by the loot of these days, but as a rare outstanding general in the Eight Banners Army, Song Zhu had not lost his cool, and when he saw Yu Zhong, he honestly took his generals to give a big salute.

"Generals, please get up!" Yu Zhong looked at the Jingzhou general in front of him, who was about the same age as himself, with a pale face, like a scholar more than a soldier, and took a few steps forward to help him up with his own hands, and at the same time worried about the information of the other party he had just gotten from the rear. Song Zhu, a native of Manchuria with a white flag, was born in the Hesheri clan. At the beginning, he started with grace. In the 32nd year of Kangxi's expedition to Geerdan, he was promoted to a cabinet bachelor in 33 years, and in the following year he was the military counselor of the Zhaowu general Ma Sika, and in the 41st year he was awarded the governor of Guangdong, and he commanded the army to attack the Yao people in Lianzhou, and it didn't take long to recruit more than 19,000 Yao people, and quickly pacified the "chaos" of the Yao people; In the forty-eighth year of Kangxi, Kangxi ordered him to act as a general of Fuzhou, and more than two years ago, he was transferred to the general of Jingzhou. Arguably. The speed of this Song Zhu's promotion is almost no less than that of Yu Zhong, but its influence cannot be compared. Moreover, according to rumors, more than two years ago, Kangxi originally intended to use Songzhu as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but for some reason he was reappointed as the general of Jingzhou, and then. Song Zhu has been in this position until now. It is worth mentioning that shortly after Songzhu arrived in Jingzhou, he immediately asked Kangxi to allocate firearms and build a firearms battalion. Today, there are 3,000 musketeers in the vast army of Hu, and the ground firearms battalion was established by Song Zhu and Ming Kangxi.

"General Xie!"

Song Zhu respectfully bowed to Yu Zhong, and then took his subordinates to greet the other generals under Yu Zhong.

"General Song must have had some hard work all the way here, right?" After everyone sat down, Yu Zhong asked Song Zhu with a smile. (Text: 'heart', hand, 'hit', group, hand, hit, 'whole')

"Don't dare. We're just marching. How can it be as laborious as the general to lead the generals to confront the enemy? Song Zhu smiled.

"General Song is too modest, you have to fight the rebellion and kill the enemy all the way, but it is much harder than our city tower......" Yu Zhong said with a smile. is worthy of being the person who almost became the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the modesty shown by Song Zhu is far stronger than that of many Eight Banner generals.

"General. I wonder what the military situation is now? Song Zhu said a few more polite words, and when Yu Zhong never mentioned the military situation that Asansol was facing now, he mentioned it himself.

"Hehe, it's nothing. Confrontation only! Namarlborough now gathered fifty or sixty thousand men and horses outside the city of Azazor, and did not attack. Second, if you don't surround it, you just hide there and stare at us! Presumably General Song, when you led the troops into the city, you also saw them, right? Song Ai interjected and laughed.

"Only fifty or sixty thousand soldiers?" Someone under Yu Zhong spoke. One of the generals under Song Zhu's command also shouted, "General, since the enemy army is about the same strength as ours, what else do we care?" Why don't you just take advantage of the opportunity of high morale and eat the enemy army in front of you in one go? ”

"Shut up! Before the general, no noise! Song Zhu glanced at the general and reprimanded loudly.

"Hehe, it turned out to be Mangkadutong! I've admired your name for a long time! Yu Zhong smiled, he had information about some of the main generals that Song Zhu brought this time, so he naturally knew who this Mangka was. What a brave and unscrupulous Han army all said, not only him, but also others will not take it to heart. That's right, after getting the support of the vast army of Hu led by Song Zhu, the number of Qing troops is indeed almost the same as the strength of Marlborough's department, and there may even be a victory, but just when he knows that the strength of the army is about the same, he wants to "eat" the other party in one bite, this kind of reckless man can only say this kind of thing except for rushing forward.

"General, our army has been ordered to come here to be incorporated into your command. ……… Now that our army has just put down the rebellion in Bangladesh, the morale is not bad, and the soldiers are eager to fight, please take more care of them! Although he taught Mangka a lesson, Song Zhu knew that his subordinates had just tasted the sweetness, and they were thinking of going to northern India, which was richer than Bengal, to make more money and become the main general. If you want to be able to control this army, you naturally can't ignore the thoughts of this group of people, you know, at this moment, even he himself thinks so, and the morale can be boosted but not discharged, his Huguang army has just killed a few battles, and it is when the front is strong, of course he doesn't want to rub it down...... Therefore, although he knew that doing so might be a steal of credit, he still euphemistically mentioned the request to ask for battle.

"General Song has come all the way to the west, and he must have seen some things, I don't know what you think of those Indians?" Yu Zhong did not answer Song Zhu's request, but asked a question.

"This ...... I don't know what kind of opinion the general is asking? Song Zhu asked rhetorically.

"It's nothing specific, General Song, you just talk about it!" Yu Zhong said with a smile.

"Then the last will be ugly!" Song Zhu glanced at Yu Zhong, pondered for a moment, and said: "The last general led his troops into India this time, and he was careful every step of the way, and he was conscientious as if he were walking on thin ice, lest there be any mistakes...... However, after receiving the general's military order and leading his troops to quell the rebellion, the last general felt that the caution in front seemed to be a little redundant! These Indians, as if they are made of paper at all, are really incomprehensible! ”

"Hehe, General Song's thoughts are similar to everyone......" Yu Zhong pointed at Yang Tianzong, Song Ai and others, and then pointed at himself: "Even when I first entered India before. That's what I think. ”

"Then I don't know if the general knows the reason?" Another of Song Zhu's subordinates, Dong Nafu, asked.

"That's too much to talk about...... However, I think that India, a big country that has been inherited for thousands of years, will be beaten around so easily, and it can't even fight back, and the main reason is probably because the people here are not united! Yu Zhong said with a smile.

"Dagejun Mingjian!" Song Zhu nodded, he knew what Yu Zhong meant. This is to warn all the generals in the field, when there is a possibility of a decisive battle with the Westerners at any time, the big guys had better have one heart and not play any twists and turns, otherwise, if they lose the battle, then they can't complain about anyone! However, although he understood the meaning of Yu Zhong's words, Song Zhu knew. It may not be easy for the Huguang army to cooperate with the Yungui army in Yuzhong. Perhaps, Yu Zhong previously allowed Hu Guangjun to kill in Bangladesh in order to gain the favor of Hu Guangjun first! Song Zhu thought secretly in his heart.

Not to mention how Yu Zhong integrated the two armies in the city, a small village outside the city of Azasor, the headquarters of the European coalition forces!

Marlborough was frowning as well.

Yu Zhong's lack of immersion did not surprise him too much...... The idea of "forced" Yu to send troops to the army with the two noble identities of Yinwei and Oro Dai was born by Richard. The diplomat, who has studied Chinese culture deeply, thinks. Yu Zhong would not risk being blamed by the emperor for being killed, regardless of the safety of the two of them, even if Yu Zhong would not really let his army run more than a thousand miles in ten days for the sake of the overall arrangement of the battle situation, and then go to fight with the army of Marlborough, but as long as the lives of the two of them were threatened. It is still possible to achieve a certain advantage for the coalition army, and even if it does not have any effect, there will inevitably be a rift between Yu Zhong and the Qing royal family. In the state of mind that you are always worried that you may be liquidated in the future. Yu Zhong's command ability will definitely be greatly reduced, which is also beneficial to the coalition forces.

Marlborough didn't think Richard's approach would work any way, but he didn't dislike it. The British have pirate genes in them, not to mention that they are just kidnapping tickets...... I think that at the beginning, the British admiral Drake did not forget to take his flagship to rob the enemy the night before he led the fleet against the Spanish Invincible Armada, and almost missed the battle. Although his approach made the generals of the other countries of the coalition a little disgusted. For this reason, he was even ridiculed by French Army Major General Rensted in front of everyone, but he did not regret it. War, defeating the enemy is the only purpose, so he doesn't want to be that kind of stupid knight, he has to have a face-to-face duel with the enemy! …… He was responsible for the lives of tens of thousands of officers and soldiers of the coalition forces.

Therefore, after discovering that the hostage threat did not work for China, he immediately used other means, on the one hand, preaching the weakness and deception of China, hoping to reunite the major Indian forces that had been somewhat scattered, and on the other hand, sending people to "touch" back to Calcutta, so that Calcutta could send people to provoke the Indians in Bangladesh to rebel again. But. He didn't expect that his plan was only half successful.

Yes, now his men have reassembled a lot of Indian troops, and those Indians have even brought a lot of supplies to the coalition forces, but there are also reinforcements in Yuzhong. Moreover, under Yu Zhong's order, the support army almost washed Bangladesh in blood in just over a month! I really don't know if it came from the army of a "civilized country", how could they be so ruthless? However, this is not what Malborough feels most depressed, what makes him most depressed is that the Indians in Bengal almost did not resist and let the Qing army kill him...... He suspected it was a bunch of fools! However, now it is too late for him to regret it, after such a bloodbath, even if the blood feud between the Indians and the Chinese is as deep as the abyss, but before the end of this war, his plan to use the Indians to stir up the "chaos" in China has failed. Moreover, after learning that Yu Zhong's reinforcements had arrived, some of the Indian kings who had joined forces with him began to be half-hearted...... If he hadn't set the tone of "friendliness" with the Indians from the beginning, he even wondered if he would have been tempted to kill these erratic guys! …… It's still a good time in Yuzhong! At least, he doesn't have to grieve himself!

……

"Your Excellency Marshal, the Chinese are moving!" Marlborough was feeling a little nervous about his mind when Colonel Collins came in from outside.

"What? That Yu Zhong is going to fight us? Marlborough asked.

"No...... Your Excellency, the supporting army...... Reinforcements from the Chinese who just came! Colonel Collins replied.

"Reinforcements? What's wrong? Marlborough asked.

"They're gone again!" Colonel Collins had a visibly foggy look on his head.

"Gone?!"

"That's right. Your Excellency, Marshal, they withdrew again...... How did you get here, and how did you go! Collins smiled wryly.
