The moonlight has passed the zenith, the stars are sparse, and there is a moist atmosphere in the air. Thirty thousand troops marched all night, and by dawn, they had arrived at Shaobo Town.

At this time, the latest news came from the scouts sent by Geng Si.

The commander-in-chief of the Yuan army became Xuexue, Tuotuo, King Xining and Chahan were all removed from their posts, while Dong Tuanxiao was appointed commander-in-chief of the left army.

Zhang Yangquan was overjoyed. No wonder those who mutinied became the Right Army Army. Just because Dong Tuanxiao was transferred to a regular post, Chahan Timur was dismissed from his post!

He no longer had any doubts in his mind and ordered the army to advance at full speed!

When he arrived at Gaoyou, it was already the evening of the second day. The sky was gray and it seemed like it was going to rain again.

Zhang Shicheng had already assembled eight thousand soldiers and led the civil and military ministers to greet them outside the south gate.

"Thank you, Manager Zhang, for your help many times. Now that the Yuan camp is in chaos, it's time for you and I to work together to defeat the Yuan!" Zhang Shicheng stepped forward and gave a big gift.

Zhang Yangquan returned the courtesy and said: "Prince Cheng, there is no need to be polite. I wonder what the situation in Yuanying is like now?"

Zhang Shicheng said with a smile: "The right route army is fighting with the left route army, and the front route army is fighting with the central army. In short, it's chaos!"

Zhang Yangquan was silent for a while and said: "Although the enemy is fighting internally, after all, the advantage in strength is still there. If we attack rashly, we may lose our troops and generals. Does King Cheng have a plan to defeat the Yuan Dynasty?"

Zhang Shicheng smiled and said: "To be honest with Mr. Zhang, after Xuexue took charge of the Yuan Army, he concentrated all the food for the four armies in Luoshen Mountain, ten miles outside the north gate. I thought I could bypass the Yuan Army camp that was fighting among themselves and go straight to Luoshen Mountain!

”

Zhang Yangquan's eyes flashed and he said with a smile: "King Cheng's method can be said to penetrate the enemy's vital points. I have no objection. I wonder when King Cheng plans to take action?"

"How about midnight tonight?"

"Okay!"

The two high-fived each other as an alliance, and Zhang Shicheng invited Jiangdu's army into Gaoyou City. There were not many people visible on the streets in the city, and many houses along the way had been demolished.

When Zhang Yangquan saw it, he couldn't help but sigh. It's really not easy for Zhang Shicheng to be able to support himself until now.

Jiangdu's army was stationed in the southwest area of ​​Gaoyou City. After settling in, Zhang Yangquan convened the generals in the camp for discussion.

Qin Lingjun said: "Zhang Shicheng's move is quite selfish. If he burns the Yuan army's food, the Yuan army will have nothing to rely on and will have no choice but to surrender to Gaoyou!"

Zhang Yangquan nodded and said: "I can see it too, but this is indeed the best way to defeat the Yuan army, and Jiangdu is not far away, so we can also get a large number of prisoners!"

Fang Yuan rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "His grandma has an army of nearly 300,000 yuan. We must at least grab 100,000 prisoners!"

Wang Da grinned and said: "There are also horses and weapons, but we can't let the Gaoyou Army take them all!"

Qin Lingjun said seriously: "We haven't won the battle yet. It's too early to think about this now. We need to prepare well for the battle and don't underestimate the enemy!"

All the generals responded in unison.

At this time, Yang Baihu followed a soldier into the camp and said, "General manager, the chief shopkeeper asked me to report to you the internal situation of the Yuan army!"

Zhang Yangquan's eyes lit up and he said: "Has Geng Si been found out?"

Yang Baihu said: "We originally only found out some fragmentary information, but yesterday afternoon we caught two big fish. They know the internal situation of Yuanying very well!"

Zhang Yangquan wondered: "Big fish?"

Yang Baihu smiled and said: "They are all high-level figures in the Yuan army. I have already brought them, just outside the tent!" He turned and left the tent and brought the two people in.

Zhang Yangquan was slightly startled. It turned out that one of the two people who came in was Polo Buhua.

I saw him with his head hanging down, looking downcast, and the other person was a middle-aged Mongolian man.

Yang Baihu pointed at the middle-aged man and said with a smile: "General Manager, this man is the former commander-in-chief of the Left Route Army of the Yuan Army, the King of Xining, Yahansha!"

After saying that, he kicked both of them on the knees and shouted: "When you see my manager, why don't you kneel down and salute!"

Both of them looked angry.

Zhang Yangquan waved his hand and said: "Don't be unreasonable."

He stepped forward to help the two of them up, and ordered someone to bring two chairs for the two of them to sit on. Then he smiled at Boluo Buhua and said, "Your Highness, King Zhennan, we meet again."

Polo dodged without any expression, and said quickly: "I, I didn't mean to escape, but it was Brother Yahansha who sent someone to rescue me!"

King Xining glared at him, but did not say a word.

Zhang Yangquan smiled slightly and said: "You don't have to panic. Since I let you out, I won't restrict your freedom. I just want to ask you a few questions now."

Seeing his gentle attitude, Polo Buhua breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You can ask whatever you want!"

Zhang Yangquan returned to his seat, sat down, and said with a smile: "I want to know what happened in Yuanying and why Chahan Timur's right army mutinied!"

King Xining suddenly said: "What he knows is not clear, let me tell you!"

Wang Da glared and said: "You are just a prisoner now, how dare you call yourself the king in front of our manager?"

Qin Lingjun already understood Zhang Yangquan's purpose of paying courtesy to the two of them, and winked at Wang Da, telling him to shut up.

"My subordinates don't know the rules, please forgive me, Your Highness!" She apologized to King Xining.

King Xining snorted and said, "It's okay if I tell you guys, but you must promise to let us go afterwards!"

Zhang Yangquan smiled slightly and said: "Of course, but the area around Gaoyou is currently in chaos. Why don't you two follow me back to Jiangdu to settle down? If you want to leave then, I will never stop you!"

King Xining and Polo Buhua looked at each other, and when the latter nodded, he said: "Okay, if you want to know anything, just ask!"

Zhang Yangquan thought for a while and said: "Let's start with Chahan Timur leading his troops back to Gaoyou. At that time, the Left Army rebelled, and Chahan's Right Army and Central Army had already surrounded the Left Army. Why didn't they suppress it?

”

The King of Xining said in a muffled voice: "The Left Route Army is very powerful. The Prime Minister is worried that even if the Left Route Army is suppressed, it will cause serious damage to the vitality and give you an opportunity to take advantage of it!"

"It happened that news came at that time that the front army had defeated the Haozhou rebels. The prime minister wanted to wait for the front army to return before taking action. Therefore, he sent people to negotiate with the generals of the left army to delay the attack."

In fact, Tuotuo had other plans. He felt that the mutiny of the Left Route Army might not be an opportunity, because Gaoyou Army and Jiangdu Army had been huddled in the city, and now that they learned of the civil strife in the Yuan Army, they might be drawn out.

So while he sent people to stabilize the left army, he asked Chahan to set up an ambush. As long as the Gaoyou army left the city or Jiangdu army was led to Gaoyou, he would annihilate it!

As a result, both Zhang Shicheng and Zhang Yangquan were able to keep their composure, and all Tuotuo's arrangements came to nothing.

The King of Xining did not know these secrets, so he could not tell them.

Zhang Yangquan asked again: "What happened after King Jing came over?"

King Xining showed a look of resentment and said: "The traitor King Jing did not come alone, he came with Xuexue, and Xuexue still carried the imperial edict with him!"

Li Er smiled and said: "Did the Tatar Emperor let Xuexue take over Tuotuo's position as commander in chief?"

The King of Xining glanced at him, nodded and said: "Yes, Xuexue is just a jester, who knows nothing about military matters. As soon as he took office, he removed me and Chahan from the commander-in-chief position, and let Dong Juanxiao... er... let Dong

Tuanxiao and Yuekoteer take over!"

He also thought that Dong Tuanxiao was colluding with Jiangdu's army, so he did not dare to scold him in front of Zhang Yangquan.

Zhang Yangquan asked curiously: "Hasn't King Jing been removed from office? He should also be a Tuotuo, right?"

King Xining sneered and said: "He is a spineless thing. Xuexue promised him some benefits, but he betrayed the prime minister!"

"What did Xuexue promise him?"

King Xining curled his lips and said: "Didn't you just ask Chahan's right army why they mutinied? It was because Xuexue promised King Jing to modify the results of the Battle of Baoying!"

Zhang Yangquan asked: "How to change it?"

The king of Xining said: "After the battle was fought, the prime minister said that the front army won first and then lost, with half the credit and half the credit. The right army's timely rescue was a great achievement!"

"In the end, Xuexue went back to the dredging, and credited the front army for the credit. The right army failed to stop the Gaoyou navy, which led to the front army's defeat. Not only was it useless, but it was also a mistake! Many were rewarded

The generals were deprived of their merits, so they rebelled in anger!"

"In this case, the right route army should be more dissatisfied with Xuexue. Why did they attack the front route army?" Zhang Yangquan asked again.

The king of Xining said: "They are here to rescue Chahan Timur, who is being held in a military camp on the front road."

Zhang Yangquan nodded and said: "Then why did the Chinese army mutiny?"

King Xining snorted and said: "It's not because of Xuexue that most of the generals in the Chinese army were promoted by Prime Minister Tuotuo. As soon as he took office, he dismissed all of them. It would be strange if these people didn't mutiny!"

Zhang Yangquan was secretly happy that Xuexue single-handedly made the two men of Yuanying rebel. He was truly a top performer who surpassed Timur before him!

Qin Lingjun suddenly asked: "Where is Tuotuo now?"

The king of Xining said: "The prime minister has been taken to Xuzhou!"
