Jiangxi Province, Fuzhou Prefecture, Yihuang County.

The magistrate Yang Quan returned to the county government with a tired face. Although the Yihuang victory two months ago and the bandits rushed west, there were countless bandits scattered in the countryside. You should know that Jiangxi was the province with the most frequent robbers in the south.

But the deadly one is not here. Qi Jimei, who was promoted to general, is still stationed in Yihuang. The problem is that the bandit army was in chaos in Jiangxi in August and September, and it was the time of a bumper harvest. The bandit army plundered a large amount of food. Now the rice price is rising. Not to mention the countryside, even in the county town, a few bodies have to be carried out every morning.

"Brother Chaoyang." Qi Jimei stepped inside, "I just received the order from the Governor's Office and drove the army westward."

Yang Quan smiled bitterly and said, "There is no food or grass, and even if the soldiers are so powerful, there is nothing we can do."

Qi Jimei's face was also bitter, "I have already asked the messenger of the Governor's Office to report..."

Liang Sheng, who followed Qi Jimei in, cursed without hesitation: "Zhao Bid should die..."

"Stop!" Yang Quan glared at Liang Sheng, "Another without any obstruction, go back to Zhenhai!"

Liang Sheng shrank his head. He knew that this was also a scholar in Suiyuan and came to help Yihuang. He saw Yang Quan's bloody battle on the city, his official robe was stained with blood, and he was wearing three wounds and never retreated.

But Yang Quan himself was not that timid, and spat fiercely, "Party disputes ruined national affairs!"

The situation in Jiangxi is now complicated and hard to describe. The bandit army is entrenched in Qingjiang County in Linjiang Prefecture, and between Xinyu County and Fenyi County in Yuanzhou Prefecture. It has been confronting Yu Dayou for a long time. After several major battles, there have been wins and defeats.

Then Hu Zongxian personally led a large army to recover Fengcheng County, Nanchang Prefecture, and went south with Liu Xian as the vanguard. He defeated the bandit army outside Qingjiang County and beheaded more than a thousand.

But the reason why the government troops did not dare to attack fiercely was very simple.

In mid-November, Liu Xian and Yu Dayou jointly attacked the bandit army, and Hu Zongxian personally led a large army to cover the killing. The bandit army fled west into Yuanzhou Prefecture and attacked Fenyi County.

Hu Zongxian himself clinged to the Yan Party and fought a war... and eventually fell into Yi County, Yan Song Township. Maybe the Yan family and Manchus were destroyed. What should Hu Zongxian do?

As a result, he could only stay here. Hu Zongxian cursed Yu Dayou in anger... and scolded him for going north from Ji'an Prefecture, so why didn't he protect Fenyi County first!

Yu Dayou could only take the blame silently. He couldn't say that Xinyu County had not been broken at that time, so he should have gone north to recover Xiajiang County.

Jiangxi Governor Zhao Zhenji was excited and urged Hu Zongxian to advance every day... The bandit army was defeated and was not strangled. When will it be when?

If the thief army breaks the ground...w tsk, maybe it will be overwhelmed for so many years, and it will be successful at this time!

For this reason, Zhao Zhenji even wrote a letter to the court to impeach Hu Zongxian to raise the thief and respect himself. That's right. A total of nearly 10,000 officials and soldiers surrounded tens of thousands of thieves, but did not fight and stared at him.

Hu Zongxian bit Zhao Zhenji and sent grain to Fujian and Jiangxi, but Jiangxi Governor Zhao Dazhou was not able to transport grain effectively, so that there was no three-day grain in the army and the morale of the army was disintegrated.

When Hu Zongxian was appointed as the governor of Zhejiang, he only cared about silver and no matter the supply of grain and rice, which was all Wu Baipeng's business, and Zhao Zhenji obviously did not have the demeanor of Wu Baipeng's tolerance for his country.

Hu Zongxian was transferred to the position of governor of Fujian and Jiangxi for only a few months, and his control over the local government was very limited and he had no name to plunder local governments. These should be the power of Jiangxi Governor Zhao Zhenji.

Zhao Zhenji and Hu Zongxian bit each other, and the court also made a fuss... In the end, the two unlucky guys Yu Dayou and Liu Xian were actually unlucky guys.

Emperor Jiajing was furious and dismissed Yu Dayou, Nangan General, Liu Xian, Jiangxi Deputy General, and ordered the two to temporarily take over their original positions and destroy the bandits within a time limit.

In this case, Zhao Zhenji sent most of the grain and rice north through the Rushui River in Linchuan County, Fuzhou Prefecture and transported it to Linjiang Prefecture and Nanchang Prefecture... while Yihuang, Le'an and other counties in the southern part of Fuzhou Prefecture were basically hungry.

Yang Quan was fine, after all, he didn't know much about Zhao Zhenji, but Liang Sheng knew about the incident at the beginning of the year and couldn't help but secretly guess that Zhao Zhenji was probably Qi Jimei going to intervene.

Liang Sheng saw Yang Quan, Qi Jimei was frowning and muttered unhappily: "It's just to go directly to Linchuan County..."

"The military order of the Governor's Office, from Fuzhou Prefecture to the westward into Linjiang Prefecture and Ji'an Prefecture. If you go north to Linchuan and then to Nanchang Prefecture, you will go down the river. Not to mention violating the military order, there will be no time to go."

Liang Sheng looked at Qi Jimei disdainfully: "I didn't say that I went to Linchuan, just go to Linchuan County to grab a handful. Anyway, all the grain and rice that entered Jiangxi must pass through Linchuan County!"

"Nonsense!" Yang Quan scolded: "Zhao Dazhou is now in Linchuan County!"

Two days ago, Yang Quan went to Linchuan County, but he couldn't even see Zhao Zhenji.

Wang Yi, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said: "It may not be impossible."

Qi Jimei was rejuvenated, and Wang Yi was sent to be a military teacher by Qi Jiguang in his early years. Qi Jiguang attached great importance to him and once asked Qian Yuan for people several times, promising at least one general.

"Looking at the wars in Fujian and Jiangxi for several months, only General Qi Shen has Gutian, and Yihuang has two great victories, and the army is well-known." Wang Yi whispered: "When you go to the letter to the governor of Fujian, Duke Yaoshan, you will be able to allocate grain. General Qi Shen went to Linchuan again and asked for help. If Zhao Dazhou refused, he led his troops to the wharf and robbed the grain ship."

After looking at Yang Quan, Wang Yi whispered: "Anyway, I have already broken my face with Zhao Dazhou. It's enough to have the title of Yaoshan Gong."

Qi Jimei hesitated for a moment, "Why do you want to go to Zhenhai?"

Liang Sheng was scolded, "It's too late to lead the army north to Nanchang Prefecture, but it's too late to go to Xinzhenhai?"

Seeing that Qi Jimei was a little timid, Liang Sheng added: "Brother Wang means that grain and rice do not come out of Jiangxi's share, but take it from Fujian's share. This face is definitely given by Duke Yaoshan... Nowadays, how much grain and rice in Fujian and Jiangxi provinces rely on Zhenhai."

Wang Yi stood up and said, "Let me go there in person. Duke Yaoshan is now stationed in Shaowu. The distance is not far. If you change horses or people, you can go back and forth in two days."

After a while, Qi Jimei nodded and responded. Yang Quan, who was beside him, noticed the smile on the corner of Wang Yi's mouth.

Looking at Wang Yi's hurriedly leaving, Liang Sheng was also a little surprised. He had been in the Qian family's guards for several years. It seemed that except for during the war, Wang Yi was always taciturn and rarely spoke, let alone such an idea.

At night, Liang Sheng asked Zhang San to drink and asked casually why Wang Yi was like this today.

Zhang San's expression darkened. There were only two people around Qian Yuan who knew Wang Yi's identity, one was Yang Wen and the other was Zhang San.

After thinking for a while, Zhang San whispered: "Does anyone else know about this?"

Seeing Liang Sheng shook his head blankly, Zhang San grabbed Liang Sheng's arm and squeezed it hard, "I told the young master after returning to Zhenhai that he should not tell anyone else."

"Back to Zhenhai?"

"Well, the young master has written a letter." Zhang San withdrew his hand and picked up the wine cup. "You who are not in the army are relaxed. You can leave just by leaving, and maybe you can still rush back to celebrate the New Year."

Liang Sheng was stunned for a while and suddenly smiled, "I'm sorry Zhou Ze."

"I deserve it!" Zhang San was overjoyed. The matter between Zhou Ze and Qingwen was decided, but the battle was still in progress, so there was no time to get married.

"By the way, what if the young master returns to Beijing next year?"

"Of course I will follow!" Zhang San glared and said, "No matter whether General Qi Shen stayed in Fujian, Jiangxi or returned to Liangzhe after the war, the brothers in the army would definitely return to Zhejiang. Most of the brothers followed the young master back to Beijing. What about you?"

Liang Sheng took a sip of wine, "If the young master is willing to ask me to bring my wife and children, then follow me to Beijing."

"But you have been to Suiyuan for a small matter, so it's a big deal." Zhang San sneered: "No one is like the guy named Yang!"

Yang Wen had already decided to stay in the army and would not belong to the Qian family again.
