"I'm afraid the Chuangjun has already entered Huguang. We have to go to the mountains and see the situation." Jin Shengheng looked at Zuo Menggeng secretly with contempt.

"Okay, listen to General Jin, let's go to the west." Zuo Menggeng was able to bend and stretch, and he called General Jin on the spot.

A man in the uniform of a soldier kept his head down, silently listening to the conversation between Zuo Menggeng and Jin Shengheng. He had already decided to find someone and almost sneaked away after he left.

Nanjing Huang Shu couldn't go back. The people on the left had already been beaten up like this, so they couldn't be counted on.

He has already made plans to invest money before Zuo Menggeng and seek a place.

......

In Anqing City, Zhu Youjian looked at Huang Degong, and looked around him angrily.

"Are you injured? I told you a long time ago that you will not be allowed to charge, so why do you keep going?"

"Hey, I'm fine. This battle wasn't fun, I didn't even make a move, and those bastards surrendered. It's really boring." Huang Degong smiled, as if he just did a morning jogging exercise.

"How's the result?"

"The enemy suffered [-] casualties, and [-] prisoners. The rest of them all ran away, and there were no large-scale lumps. They were scattered in all directions. I don't even know where to chase them."

"Don't chase, we don't have enough manpower for so many prisoners. If there is a mutiny, it won't be worth it." The biggest harvest of this battle has already been obtained, and those who run away will be fine.There are still so many people waiting to be resettled in Jiang Xinzhou, it is indeed too busy.

"What about Zuo Liangyu? Do you want to flog the corpse?" Huang Degong felt that Zuo Liangyu should be flogged. This fellow is so hateful that he dared to rebel against the emperor.

Zhu Youjian glared at him, and said leisurely: "He has made contributions to Daming a few years ago. Since he is dead, let's hold a funeral for him."

"All the soldiers and generals on the left must participate." Zuo Maodi stood aside, took a deep look at Zhu Youjian, and nodded.

Chapter 1 Seventy: A handsome man is also very human

Zuo Liangyu's funeral was simple and grand.

Simply, there was only a coffin-carrying team composed of generals from the left tribe, carrying Zuo Liangyu's coffin on the road.

For a rebellious general, naturally he would not receive Zhu Youjian's farewell courtesy, and it is even more impossible for Zhu Youjian to personally carry the coffin like Gao Jie did.

Outside the city of Anqing, a crowd of spectators had already surrounded them. These were Zuo Liangyu's subordinates, including some young men who had been coerced.Zhu Youjian has already explained that he adopts the principle of voluntariness.

Some people came purely to watch the fun, while others came with complicated thoughts.

When the coffin came out of the city gate, Zhu Youjian was wearing a dragon robe and stood on the top of the city gate looking at it, motionless.

"The emperor is too benevolent to Zuo Liangyu. According to me, the corpse should be whipped." Huang Degong was drinking with Zuo Maodi in the gate building, and his face was flushed from drinking.

"A man is dead, and he can let go of his hatred at this time. This is the grandeur of a king! Come on, Huang Shuai, drink more. The emperor said a long time ago, the battle is over, you can drink as you like." Zuo Maodi gave Huang Degong He poured a full glass and tried to persuade him to drink.

"Don't, don't call me Commander again. I think it sounds nice to be called Commander. Commander is the one lying in the coffin below."

"Commander Huang is famous far and wide now. He has wiped out a total of 80 enemy troops. Your contribution is not small." Zuo Maodi looked at Huang Degong and smiled.

Huang Degong was taken aback, and quickly waved his hands: "What does Mr. Zuo mean by this? I, Lao Huang, don't dare to take your credit."

"This is what the emperor meant. In this battle, I will report victory to the imperial court in your name. The pressure you are facing in Hezhou is not small. The emperor asked you to guard here just to strengthen your deterrence."

Zuo Maodi looked at Huang Degong and said seriously: "Li Zicheng has followed behind to Wuchang, and Duoduo has already arrived in Xuchang. Do you think Li Benshen can hold on?"

"Didn't you agree to surround Duoduo in Fengyang?"

"So, you can't have any problems here. To fight Duoduo, you can't do without fewer people. The emperor is still counting on the soldiers outside."

"Can these people succeed?" Huang Degong looked suspiciously.

"If it can't be done, it must be done. I will leave the Yangtze River Navy in Anqing to block Li Zicheng. All the soldiers here will go north." Zhu Youjian walked in, just in time to hear their conversation.

"One hundred thousand soldiers can be picked out here, but these people have not been trained, and they will not work on the battlefield."

Huang Degong started fighting with Hou Jin at the age of 12. He was too familiar with the fighting power of the Tartars.Not to mention these untrained soldiers, even Daming's regular army would struggle to fight the Tartars.

"If you can't do it, you have to do it. Just pick out 10 people according to what you said, and add your Hezhou Army, a total of 20 people. If Duoduo really comes, follow the established plan and follow him in Fengyang Will fight."

"Will my old Huang personally command?" Huang Degong immediately became excited when he heard about the war, and he had forgotten the doubts just now.

"Yes! I'll teach you everything." Zhu Youjian smiled.

"That's great. I won't drink this wine for the time being. I'll save it for the victory. I'll prepare it right away." Huang Degong got up and ran, proudly descending the city wall.

"Your Majesty, can this be done?" Seeing Huang Degong leaving, Zuo Maodi asked worriedly.

"Let's treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor. Henan will definitely not be able to defend it. If Duoduo is really desperate to attack Fengyang, we can only fight him desperately."

"Why don't we withdraw the Shandong troops to the south? Fight in Xuzhou?"

"It's absolutely impossible. With Li Yan here, Houjin's army can still be restrained. In this way, even if we fight in Fengyang, we will only face Duoduo. But once we concentrate in Xuzhou, if Houjin gives up Huguang, we will face a concentrated attack from all the military forces of the entire Houjin in Xuzhou. May I ask who can lead the army in Daming now?"

Zuo Maodi and Zhu Youjian knew very well in their hearts that letting Huang Degong lead the army was a matter of driving ducks to the shelves.A battle of several 10 corps is beyond the capabilities of ordinary generals.

There were Bai Qi and Wang Jian in the pre-Qin period, Han Xin and Wei Qing in the Han Dynasty, and Li Jing in the Tang Dynasty; even the champion Hou Huo Qubing may not have this kind of ability.

If this matter was put in the past, Daming still had Hong Chengchou, but he is already a member of Houjin.Besides, Zhu Youjian also found that there was another Dorgon in the Later Jin Dynasty. If such a situation really formed, Dorgon might not come out of the mountain in person.

As far as Ming's current generals are concerned, there may not be many who can compete with Azig and Duoduo.Li Yan is one, but Li Yan's foundation in the court is too shallow.Zuo Maodi was at best a good staff officer, while Huang Degong was not at all worth mentioning.

Yan Yingyuan's genius for defending the city should be reserved for defending the city.People like Shi Kefa, if they are sent, they will probably only be sent to death. At most, they can gain a reputation for themselves.

In the Huaihai War in the later generations, General Su directly exhausted his mind.To fight such a battle, it is impossible to just make up a name like in a novel.

"Exaggerating Huang Degong's record, it's best to be jealous of Duoduo. If we really reach that point, let's go together. I don't believe it. If you beat Duoduo, you don't have to resurrect Han Xin, right?"

"Hou Jin didn't have that many soldiers, did he? Your majesty also said that when he was in a stone, Dorgon only had 20 soldiers and horses."

Zuo Maodi really didn't expect Zhu Youjian to say that Hou Jin was so terrible. According to the thinking of many people in Ming Dynasty, Hou Jin just picked up a bargain, so why did he turn pale when he talked about it.

"Where did Li Zicheng's million-dollar army go? And Wu Sangui's 13 people." Zhu Youjian asked Zuo Maodi after drinking a glass of wine.

"If Hou Jin had a source of troops to go south, these people might be placed there. If the decisive battle in Xuzhou really broke out, the old thief Dorgon and Hong Chengchou would definitely put all these people on board.

When the time comes in Huaisi, there will be a battle of millions of people, and that will be the real war to subjugate the country. "

"Your Majesty, I can't match your vision!" Zuo Maodi stood up, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, admiring Zhu Youjian.

Regarding the current situation, Zhu Youjian knew very well that what he wanted was time, time, or time.

As long as the army does not surrender on a large scale, and the Huaisi line of defense is stabilized, the rest will be left to time.

This is a question of testing the strategic vision of the commanding departments of both sides. Zhu Youjian has already tried his best to create a favorable situation. As for what to do with Dorgon and Hong Chengchou, he really doesn't know.

The reason why Nanming lost so quickly in history was due to internal struggles. Another aspect was that Shi Kefa could not integrate the four towns in Jiangbei, which led to almost all rebellion and surrender. An occupation that could have been stabilized or delayed became one-sided.
