Henan, Nanyang Fu Shiqiao Station.

General Jingxi and Prince Kang Jieshu are temporarily located.

The Eight Banners soldiers who accompanied Jieshu to the south were 9 Niu Lu drawn from the Eight Banners of Mongolia and 14 Niu Lu from the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, totaling 6,000 people.

The accompanying clan included the third son of Prince Yu Duoduo, Gushan Beile Dong'e, and the fifth son of Taizu's eldest grandson Du Du, and the prince of Fuguo.

Dong E and Tel are both candidates personally selected by the Empress Dowager to go to the expedition, and Ama has made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty, and is also a material that can be created among the young children of the fourth generation of the imperial family, so he was favored by the Empress Dowager to accompany Jieshu to the southern expedition.

It seems that the young children of the imperial family are allowed to go to the front line to train, but in fact, the continuous growth of the Aobai party in the court has threatened the imperial power, causing the empress dowager to have to start cultivating the children of the imperial family, hoping that they can be able to assist the emperor and balance the Aobai party after they grow up.

The previous Babur led the garrison of the Eight Banners to Jingzhou through Xiangyang, but Jie Shu and his entourage went straight to Yun County, where Yunyang Prefecture was located.

Yun County, which is also the residence of Hu Quancai, the current governor of Hubei, is very close to the West Mountain, where the remnants of the Ming army are entrenched.

It can be said that I am on the front line.

This move is Jieshu to show the court and the world his determination to suppress thieves, and of course, he also wants to create his image of the young hat king as brave and decisive.

After all, before this, Jieshu had never led an army, giving people the impression of almost a gentleman.

Hu Quancai, the governor of Hubei, sent people to report to Prince Kang every day half a month ago, and asked Prince Kang for instructions on everything, which made Jieshu very satisfied, and it was not in vain that he "set aside" Zhang Changgeng, the governor of Huguang.

The reason why Zhang Changgeng was left aside was because Jie couldn't write to him.

The reason is that Zhang Changgeng is constantly moving closer to the Aobai party.

And it is precisely because of the stupidity of Aobai's younger brother Mulima and Zhang Changgeng's incompetence that the situation in Huguang has become extremely dangerous after the Xishan thieves are prominent.

Although the fifth thief king of the West Mountain has been appeased by the Aobai brothers, and the situation has been controlled, Jieshu, as the general appointed by the Empress Dowager personally, understands the Empress Dowager's good intentions in letting him succeed Mulima.

Undoubtedly, the Empress Dowager hopes that Jieshu, the young hat king, can become the new representative of the clan.

The previous virtuous king was Prince An Yue Le, who was "abolished" by the Empress Dowager herself.

It is precisely because of Yue Le's "abolition" that the Aobai party has become big.

Knowing what he is doing now and what he will do in the future, Jie Shuzi can't let the Empress Dowager disappoint him.

Therefore, before he arrived in the war zone, he began to "cut off" with the Aobai party.

Those who can be transferred away are transferred, and those who cannot be transferred are overhead.

In short, we must not let the worshippers do bad things.

This is also one of the "true scriptures" that Jieshu went to the mansion of Prince An Yue Le to obtain.

Yue Le is worried that the Huguang war has always been dominated by Aobai, and his younger brother Mulima has fought the biggest loss since the entry of the Qing Dynasty, and almost made Huguang erosive, so Yue Le is worried that the Aobai party will prevent Jieshu from successfully pacifying the Xishan thieves, so that the Aobai brothers are not only incompetent, but also irrepressible, and it is very likely that they will take small actions in private to drag Jieshu's hind legs, and even "Yin Zong's defeat".

Promoting the division of Huguang into provinces, making the Xishan "war zone" the governor of Hubei, Hu Quancai, the governor, and operating Yu Yangzhi, who was born in the royal palace, to serve as the governor of Hubei, so that Hu and Yu could completely control the money and grain army in the war zone, was Jieshu's preventive means to prevent accidents.

But the young general Wang would never have thought that before entering the Xishan Theater, bad news came from Jingzhou.

The bad news was sent by Zhang Changgeng, the governor of Huguang, to send people to hurry up.

"Jingzhou general soldier Wang Yaowu led the rebellion, led the troops into the city to kill the general Babur, the deputy capital of Gabula, the pine chief below the eight banners of more than 3,700 officers and soldiers Jingzhou is now occupied by the rebels, Wang Yaowu called himself the puppet president of the general of soldiers and horses, it is reported that the people of the city banner are all called, all called"

The messenger sent by Zhang Changgeng didn't dare to say it directly, and Jieshu, who looked hesitant, was furious, and slapped the table angrily: "Say, what's the matter!" ”

The envoy was frightened by the appearance of the great general king, and hurriedly gritted his teeth and said: "The women and children in the city are all divided by the rebels!" ”

How to divide it, and how the flag woman ended up after the partition, needless to say.

"Horn!"

A porcelain bowl was smashed to the ground by the enraged Jieshu, and a broken piece of porcelain jumped into the right side of Belletel's face, cutting a gap, and blood flowed out.

Terrqin did not cover the wound with his hand, but looked at the messenger who came to report in a daze.

Jingzhou was slaughtered all over the city?!

The young Fu Guogong was as stunned as if he had been struck by lightning.

This bad news also stunned the Eight Banners who accompanied Jieshu on his southern expedition.

The general Wang's pen-style supervisor, Hanlin attendant Fu Lata was even more frightened and almost screamed.

The two generals of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty who had just come over also listened to it with a "grunt", and their eyes were in disbelief.

"Traitors dare to slaughter my city!"

The angry roar of the young hat king resounded throughout the post station, echoing in the ears of the Han Wenwu of the Southern Banner, making them all frightened.

From generals to armored men, nearly 4,000 bannermen were slaughtered, and tens of thousands of women and children of the Eight Banners were divided and abused by the rebels, which was an unprecedented tragedy since the founding of the Qing Dynasty.

The impact is even worse than Mulima's defeat at Huanglongshan, and the losses are even heavier!

There are 20,000 garrison flag men, and they are gone?

Gone!

This bad news made the Eight Banners civil and military, who were accustomed to slaughtering the Han city, unacceptable, and couldn't react for a while, so they collectively stood in front of Prince Kang and lost their minds.

The air, the silence is terrible.

It was Prince Kang's bodyguard Mang Yitu who came to his senses first, and hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down in front of his master: "The prince is angry!" ”

Seeing this, a group of officials reacted and quickly knelt down.

"Anger? How do you call this king to calm his anger? The city of Jingzhou was slaughtered, and the 20,000 bannermen were gone, how do you let this king be angry! ”

Jie Shu really made Jingzhou's bad news extremely angry and angry.

Jingzhou's surrender and rebellion completely disrupted his encirclement and suppression deployment, and even he didn't know what to do now.

"Damn, damn, Wang Yaowu deserve to die, this king will definitely cut this thief with a thousand knives!"

Because of his anger, the young hat king's face became flushed, his forehead and neck were also protruding, and his eyes were like cannibalism.

"Lord Wang, it's not just that Nikan traitor who is going to die, it's Mulima, it's Aobai!"

A voice resounded in everyone's ears, and all the flag officials kneeling on the ground were shocked.

Someone instinctively looked up and found that it was the son of Prince Yu Duoduo, Gushan Belle Dong.

This man was the cousin of the great general Wang.

Lord Belle, who was only one year younger than his nephew Jieshu, didn't care how complicated everyone's eyes were when they looked at him, and went straight to his nephew and said angrily: "If it weren't for Aobai, An would have this matter!" Prince Kang should immediately write to the court, please bow to thank the world! ”
