It has been raining for several days in a row without any sign of stopping. A large area of ​​wet land outside the city has become a wetland overnight. Although the gunpowder in the camp is well preserved, many of it has been affected by dampness.

If you can't use firearms, you have to attack by force if you want to take over the small county town in front of you.

After Zhu Gan weighed it up, he immediately ordered people to start building large-scale siege equipment, and sent spies everywhere to check whether there were large Ming army activities around. At the same time, he also sent an order to the Red Army in Jiujiang to send troops.

Come to the rescue.

For everything unfamiliar around you, when you are about to succeed, you must not relax at all, but become even more cautious.

This abnormal climate is like the postponed plum rain season. Zhu Gan is sitting in the middle of the army, and his heart is constantly rising and falling with the sound of rain outside the tent. What he is really worried about is not the Ming army in Meilin City, but the Ming army in Meilin City.

This is a trap that has been prepared long ago. These mountains are suitable for the Tibetan army.

During this period of time, he had been going too smoothly, attacking cities and fortresses, and conquering all enemies. But after all, he had very little background, so he led the army to Bashu, not only to have a base to compete in the world, but also to accumulate his knowledge.

, laying a solid foundation for the fierce battle in the future.

However, although he was proud of these days, he always stayed awake, constantly reminding himself that the more he was at this time, the less careless he could be. However, the sneak attack of the Ming army last night still made Zhu Gan see his carelessness, and he actually thought that he would never be careless again.

The Ming army dared to steal the camp, so they randomly found a piece of high ground and settled down. If they had been a little more vigilant last night, they would not have stolen the camp. There were so many casualties, which was a huge blow to the morale of the new soldiers.

The bloody lesson last night told Zhu Qian to be sober and more sober, so he kept reflecting and suddenly laughed at himself: "It is said that the older you get, the less courageous you are. I have come from nothing to something, and now I am where I am today."

One step, I am in a high position, and I have become so timid."

He snorted angrily, if he became timid and did not dare to move forward just because some people died, how could he still have the courage to fight for world supremacy? He slammed the table and said angrily: "Here comes someone.

!”

"The humble duty is here!" Several soldiers waiting outside the tent ran in and knelt down on one knee and said.

Zhu Gan didn't even raise his head, as if he had made a great determination, he wrote quickly on the desk, and said in a cold voice: "Order the new army camp to take the heavy supplies and hit the road now, take the official road, go through the mountains, and go to Jiujiang

Meet up with Yu Gao and the others."

"Yes, I humbly accept the order." After receiving the order, several people took the order handed over by Zhu Gan and stamped it with a big red seal. This was done by Zhu Qian in Dezhou City. After conveying the order to the three armies, he became the commander-in-chief and since then

Above the centurions, there is a rubbing comparison in their hands.

Although everyone received the order suddenly, they did not dare to delay looking at the big red cinnabar seal. Most of the new military camps were soldiers from the Ming army in the south, and some refugees recruited voluntarily. However, in the land of Jiangnan, if you want to

It seems a bit difficult to recruit some soldiers with higher quality.

After all, the land south of the Yangtze River is relatively wealthy. Although a large number of people from the north who were affected by the disaster went south, there are a large number of textile workshops in the south and they can still find some living jobs. They are not willing to join the Red Army and do the work of holding their heads.

thing.

Everywhere Zhu Gan went, he always acted on the principle of voluntariness. He rarely did anything forced, but it was indispensable. The method of ruthless shock, one piece and one piece, one stick and one carrot was the right way. If he was just blindly kind, he would only be

Being regarded as cowardly, if one is blindly violent, it will be a recipe for destruction and death.

Although the new barracks were established on a voluntary basis, most of them were just for the full five taels of silver every month. Now I want them to escort such a thick amount of silver alone, except for those officers who came from Zhuozhou

Or those from Tongzhou City, the others are unreliable!

So after receiving this order from Zhu Gan, these old people from Zhuozhou and Tongzhou became worried. Maybe their lord had been stimulated by something, otherwise how could he make such a foolish move.

Although he muttered in his heart, Zhu Gan's prestige was too high and he didn't dare to question it. He carried out the order meticulously and notified the people below to start packing and get ready to go on the road.

The new barracks escorted the heavy materials and formed a long queue, slowly passing under Meilin City and heading towards Jiujiang City along the official road.

Naturally, the officers and soldiers in the city also saw the actions of the red-coated troops, but they did not dare to act rashly. There were five thousand red-coated cavalry waiting eagerly on the side, preparing to fight and take revenge on them!

Thinking about the day when Guan Ning's cavalry were afraid of their own hands and feet, Cao Bianjiao felt unhappy for a while. He really wanted to open the city and test the edge of the red army. It was rumored that the red army was close to these five people outside Dezhou City.

Thousands of cavalrymen completely annihilated Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army. However, the Tianxiong Army did disappear, but it is unknown whether this rumor is true or not.

"As expected, he is a decisive and ruthless person." Cao Bianjiao was wearing a heavy raincoat, and his tall, young and mighty face revealed a look of admiration. In that situation last night, he actually did not pursue him and tried to regain his morale.

We can see the decisiveness of the Red Army. This is an army whose morale cannot be judged by ordinary common sense.

However, they were obviously helping the army this day. The Guan Ning cavalry were not only good at firearms, but also good at bows and arrows. In this bad season, they had the upper hand.

Dabie Mountain faces Nanjing to the east and Wuhan to the west. It is basically located in the middle of Nanjing and Wuhan. It is its unique geographical location that makes Dabie Mountain of great military value to Nanjing and Wuhan. However, now Dabie Mountain has nothing to do with these two cities.

, but Huangmei County is located at the southernmost tip of the Dabie Mountains.

This place belongs to Qizhou, Huangzhou Prefecture, the Chief Secretary of Huguang, but today it is occupied by a group of uninvited guests. These people are all elite, wearing chain armor and black cotton armor. They look extremely evil. A car with eight large horses

The luxurious carriage drove quickly and smoothly into the city.

The magistrates and guards in the city came out to greet them. They had obviously received the order from above. The carriage stopped at the gate of the county government office, but there was no movement at all. They just handed out a piece of paper, and the black-armored officers under them took it.

Seeing that, he took a step forward and said in a cold voice: "Listen up, my lord is now the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and now he is coming to your little Huangmei County. Everything here is now decided by my lord. Who dares to do anything?

If you are nagging at all, I will definitely call on Shang Fangjian and I will kill you without mercy."

The position of governor is not a formal official title, so it can be set temporarily. Therefore, Li Mingyang was able to become the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi in one fell swoop. It was just a title. If he had not been a powerful and well-respected scholar-bureaucrat group in Jiangnan, he would not have been able to do so.

Queen Yi'an will ask him to appoint him as governor.

However, the name of advocating the military and political affairs of Guangdong and Guangxi is only in name only. All he can command is the power in his hands. However, he has the right to talk to all parties, coupled with the huge financial resources in his hands, he is definitely a leader in Jiangnan.

A force that cannot be underestimated.

Although he does not have the strength behind him to be supported by a few political parties or big bosses in the court, and he has no fame, he still belongs to the southern scholar-bureaucrat group, and his fundamental nature is still the same, and he has countless subordinates.

They also had control over the fertile land and the sea trade channels and fleets for smuggling, which was one of the reasons for their compromise.

However, it was obvious that Li Mingyang was not optimistic about these scholar-bureaucrats. As soon as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi was appointed, a flood of invitations came into his hands, but he never went to any banquet. This time he came with the army, and he spent almost all his money on it.

's private army.

This move is crucial. As long as he plays it well, it is not impossible for him to build a kingdom for his sister and give her a dowry.

Li Mingyang, who was sitting in the carriage, felt the heat from the animal furnace in the four corners of the carriage. Warmth rushed to his face, accompanied by the pure and concentrating sandalwood. However, his heart was not at all peaceful. Instead, it was like the heat in the animal furnace.

The coals of fire are uncertain, and if anyone guesses his thoughts, they will definitely be deeply shocked.

"The four young masters, the four bullshit young masters." Li Mingyang suddenly lowered his head and looked at the collection of poems in his arms. These were all from the Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival on the Qinhuai River that day, as well as some scattered manuscripts. These were actually all

It is the original manuscript, not an excerpt, and it also contains news about various changes in the city of Nanjing.

When he learned that Shi Kefa had appeared and put Li Jintang in charge of the Li family, a flash of sternness flashed in his eyes. He was holding up a wall for the Li family in front, but the people of the Li family were actually digging up the wall behind. He knew very well that his

Life can't last long in this life, so he fights for his sister at all costs. His sister is the bottom line in his heart and the only bottom line.

Now the people of the Li family dared to extend their dirty hands to their own sister. They felt cruel in their hearts. They were just a few magistrates, magistrates? So what if they were eradicated together.
