There were tanks in the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 438 Time difference

For the people in the south of the Yangtze River, this matter is indeed a big thing.

There was news from Kaifeng, and it was not gossip, but an imperial decree.

He abolished the Jiangsu and Hangzhou production bureaus and suspended the Huashi Gang, dismissed Zhu Meng's father and son and brothers from their official positions, and appointed him as the envoy of Jiang, Huai, Jing, Zhejiang and other roads. 15 Tibetan and Han troops from the Six Routes went south to suppress and annihilate Fang La.

Jiangning City.

When Zhu Mian heard the content of the imperial decree, he was completely dumbfounded, and looked at the angel who came to deliver the decree with astonishment on his face.

He was bewildered.

Didn't he write about the Jiangnan matter? He reported the news of Fang La's being defeated, and even asked Yin Zi to ask Wang Xiang to speak for him. How did he wait for such a result?And didn't the imperial court already send the Qilin army to destroy Fang La? If it wasn't for the fact that the imperial court sent the Qilin army, he wouldn't even mention the name of the Qilin army in the original request for credit. Now that Fang La is dead, the whole The Qilin army in the Jiangnan area can already completely wipe out the remaining bandits, so why go to war and send people from the Western army?
"Master Zhu, why didn't you accept the order?"

Although Zhu Mian was dismissed from his official position, he had a good relationship with Beijing and China. The angel was still polite to Zhu Mian, but Zhu Mian's reaction surprised him a bit.

Zhu Xi was in a bit of trouble.

Is this purpose to be accepted, or not to be accepted?
As soon as this is about to be taken over, this official position will really be dismissed, but he can't figure out why this is the case. The papers that clearly ask for credit have been passed on, why did this result come?

He didn't answer the order, but before answering, he asked the angel a word: "May I ask the angel, have you ever read the brochure that Zhu handed over two days ago?"

"Master Zhu, what do you mean by that?"

Zhu Xi said: "Fang La was beheaded by our army's General Cheng Yi at the foot of Danyang City the day before yesterday. Fang La's 50 bandit soldiers have all been defeated."

"Ah." The angel exclaimed, his face full of disbelief.

He asked weakly: "Fang La is dead?"

Zhu Xi nodded.

Angel:"……"

Zhu Mian asked, "Don't tell me the officials don't know about this?"

The angel shook his head and said, "Our family doesn't know about this. It was May 29th when our family was ordered to leave Tokyo, and now it's the second day of June."

Zhu Xi understood.

It's a time difference.

The decree brought by this angel was the decree made after the incident in the south of the Yangtze River. Now the new booklet I uploaded may not have arrived in Tokyo, or it may have arrived, or the new angel has already arrived with a new decree.

After telling the angel about these things, Zhu Xi looked at the angel and asked, "I don't know about the angel, this decree..."

The angel said: "Since Fang La is gone, there will naturally be a new imperial decree. Lord Zhu, let's pretend that our family has not yet arrived in Jiangning. When the new angel arrives, we will receive the decree together."

Zhu Mo nodded, so he left the angel to have a banquet in Jiangning City. At the banquet, Zhu Mo asked about the Qilin Army again, and wanted to find out about the situation of the Qilin Army from the angel. When the Qilin army marched eastward to destroy Fang La according to the order of the imperial court, they couldn't help but exclaimed.

That night, Zhu Xi hurriedly made a copy and sent someone to send it to Tokyo quickly.

It is strictly stated in the zhezi that the Qilin army did not respect the will, and they mobilized troops from Southwest Beijing Road to attack the Jiangnan area without authorization. He kept pointing out various crimes against the Qilin Army, the biggest of which was disrespecting the emperor's order and asking the court to punish the Qilin Army for various crimes.

This point, Li Chu still does not know.

At this time, he was still training with these sailors in the naval base to familiarize himself with the performance of various warships.

Then they were waiting for Lu Junyi's army.

After a three-day trip, Lu Junyi has already passed Shouzhou and arrived in Dingyuan.

Dingyuan, this has already entered Huainan West Road, only two state capitals away from Jiangning.

During the phone call, Li Chu asked Lu Junyi to rush to Xuanhua Town, Chuzhou to be on standby.

After estimating the time, it was almost time for the imperial edict to arrive in the south of the Yangtze River.

When the imperial court decided to send the Western Army into the south of the Yangtze River, Li Chu got the news in advance through King Su Zhao Shu, and passed the news to Li Chu by satellite phone.However, the imperial court did not have a telephone, and all imperial decrees had to be transmitted by human power, so there was a time difference.

This is also the reason why Li Chu wanted to attack Fang La quickly in the past few days, but he didn't expect to kill Fang La directly.

Now that Fang La was killed by the Qilin Army, the Qilin Army became famous among the common people.

When the imperial court's order arrives here, there will definitely be huge conflicts here, and the officials in the Jiangnan area will definitely disobey the arrangement of the Qilin Army.

Fortunately, Lu Junyi's large army has arrived, so what if Jiangnan knows about it?

As for Beijing Northwest Road.

Humph.

It takes a few days for the imperial court to send the imperial decree to Jiangnan, and then the unicorns of the Qilin Army will be reported to the imperial court.

Then the imperial court sent an imperial decree to Shaanxi to the Western Army, which also took a few days, and then sent a letter to the Western Army to change the destination, which took another few days.

Moreover, it will take another few days for the negotiations between the DPRK and China, and various interest entanglements.

In this way, the transmission of traffic information by the ancients was too slow, enough to give Li Chu a lot of time.

I'm afraid that when the imperial court knows the movement of the Qilin Army, it will immediately change the destination of the Western Army, prevent the Western Army from entering the south of the Yangtze River, and transfer the Western Army to attack the Southwest Road of Beijing to attack Li Chu's old lair in Ruzhou .

Li Chu doesn't have to worry about this.

If it doesn't work, at worst, give up Ruzhou.

The predicament in Ruzhou is too great.

To the east is Kaifeng, to the north is Shaanxi, and the only way out is to go south and west.

After acquiring the whole of Jiangnan, if Ruzhou has no choice but to abandon it, it doesn't matter.

But Li Chu also has his own chances of winning. Now the flying fish airship is still in Tongzhou. If the Western Army really attacks Ruzhou at that time, Li Chu will directly dismantle the tanks and some cannons on the battleship and bring them back to Ruzhou with the airship. Going to Ruzhou, anyway, the journey is only about ten hours or so, with the help of cannons, his Western Army may not be able to fight down to Ruzhou.

At that time, as long as the main force here goes all the way to the west, leveling the south of the Yangtze River and connecting Jingzhou, then the worries of Ruzhou will naturally be resolved.

But at this time, Li Chu could only continue to wait.

But while waiting, Li Chu invited Wang Delin over to participate in the first sea-going exercise of the East China Sea Fleet of the Kirin Army.

After two or three days of groping, it's time to go out to sea for a walk, test the artillery fire by the way, and let all the navy soldiers see the real combat method of the navy.
