"No! How many brothers died in our Huai Army in order to take down Huai'an City? Now the government army has been driven away by us. The city needs money and food, why do you have to give up going to Yangzhou in one sentence! I can't figure it out!"

Cheng Lin firmly opposed it. On the one hand, he was really reluctant to give up Huai'an City. On the other hand, Lu Si's decision was too sudden and everyone was unaware of it in advance.

"Yes, little son, we finally occupied Huai'an City. You said you wanted to marry young people in the city and set up an old camp to accommodate our families. How could you leave just by saying that you would leave? I think Huai'an City is very good. As long as our Huai army is united, manages well, and strengthens the city defense, the government army will not be able to conquer it."

Xia Dajun could not accept the plan to give up Huai'an and go to Yangzhou. He heard that he would set up an old camp in the afternoon, so he planned to send someone home to take his father and wife into the city.

"Only when Huai'an City is in our hands, the court will recruit us. Without Huai'an City, can the court still pay attention to us?" The person who spoke was Zheng Wancai, a team official in Fengying.

"We finally rushed into Huai'an City from the canal. Now everyone is in the city. Brother Lu, you said you don't want Huai'an City. I don't care. I'm afraid everyone will be unable to turn their minds in a short time." Xu Shang Yinhui reminded Lu Si that there must be many people who are unwilling to go to Yangzhou, which can easily cause a great division of the Huai army.

After all, compared with Huaian City, which has already been obtained, it has food and drink, although Yangzhou is richer than Huaian, it is not very attractive to the Huai Army.

Everyone worked hard to survive when they worked with the government army. The Huai Army established the Taohuawu to call on Hegong to attack Huai'an City to allow the court to recruit them. Now this goal has been achieved. The Huai Army will only defend Huai'an City and let the government army not be able to capture the government and wait for the court to recruit them. Why did they rush to say no to Huai'an City?

So many people died in vain?

Monk Xu couldn't figure it out either.

There were also Xie Jinsheng, Jude, Zhou Tiesheng, Li Mi, Colonel Zheng and others in the house. They all followed Lu Si to capture Huai'an City and serve as team officials in each battalion. They were Lu Si's direct lineage. Among them, Colonel Zheng was also Lu Si's cousin.

"Everyone, please listen to Mr. Lu!"

Sun Wujin couldn't explain to these people, and he was half-knowing about some things.

Lu Si spoke, looked at everyone and said calmly: "I know you can't accept giving up Huai'an City, even if I don't want to give up, but we have to leave because there is only a dead end to stay."

After saying that, he reached out and pinched a few fried soybeans from the bowl on the table and put them in his mouth, and then lifted the cotton jacket covered with it.

"Huai'an left and right rivers, and it is a major area for transportation between the north and the south. At present, wars in the north are in a tight position, and the capital relies on grain to save lives. Our Huai army suddenly occupied Huai'an and cut off the transportation. What do you think the court would think?" Lu Si chewed the soybeans in his mouth, which was very crisp.

"We will definitely be invited!" Xie Jinsheng blurted out.

Zheng Wancai nodded in agreement: "Yes, the imperial court will definitely send someone to talk to us for the sake of the canal transportation."

The others didn't say anything, but they probably thought so, judging from their expressions.

"The question is who is talking to us and who is willing to invite us?" Lu Si shook his head, turned his head and ordered Sun Wujin, "Hang it up."

"Why!"

Sun Wujin hurriedly lifted the Huaiyang map and tied it to the wall with a nail. Everyone couldn't read it. They couldn't understand what the words marked on the map, nor did they know what they were drawing. They were all a little stunned. However, they could see that there were several circles on the map drawn with brushes, and these circles surrounded a place that looked like a city.

Lu Si picked up the wooden stick that had been prepared long ago and pointed to the place that looked like a city, and said, "This is Huai'an City under our feet, and the river beside it is the canal."

After Lu Si said this, everyone suddenly realized that Xie Jinsheng pointed to the south of Huai'an City not far from Huai'an City and whispered to Monk Xu. That was Yangzhou City.

Monk Xu said "Oh": "From the picture, it's quite close."

"These circles around Huai'an are the places where the nearby government troops I marked were stationed. They may be wrong, but they are generally not bad."

Lu Si pointed his wooden stick at several circles toward the north side of Huai'an: "This is Sizhou, with the Jinshenghuan troops stationed by the official army; this is Taoyuan, with the Zhu Guobi troops stationed by the Marquis of Funing, and the troops of Shandong general Liu Zeqing in Xuzhou and Haizhou..."

As Lu Si's wooden stick continued to shift, everyone's faces gradually became solemn, because according to Lu Si, Huai'an City was surrounded by official troops.

"We have the Huai'an General Zhang Pengyi to the east, and the Yangzhou and Nanjing City officials in the south. But the most threat to us is the west!"

Lu Si knocked on several circles on the west side of Huai'an City on the map.

"According to the instructions of Luo Jiying, the Huai Army before our Huai Army broke through the city, Lu Zhenfei, the governor of the canal transportation, sent people to the west of the Fengyang Governor Ma Shiying and the eunuch Lu Jiude for help. The official army in Fengyang is very close to Huai'an, and there is a cavalry among them, and the leader is a man named Huang Degong."

Lu Si had a great impression of Huang Degong. This person was a powerful general promoted from the Warriors' camp by Chongzhen himself. He was nicknamed "Huang Chuangzi". He made great achievements in fighting the peasant army. He once defeated Zhang Xianzhong and was also the strongest town in the four towns in Jiangbei.

"...Huai'an is a good place. If Huai'an was not captured by our Huai army, such as Huang Degong, Jin Shenghuan, and Liu Zeqing, who are good at fighting, wouldn't come to Yuezhen, but now Huai'an is in the hands of our gang of thieves, do you think they will come?"

Lu Si put down the wooden stick, touched the soybeans and put them into his mouth.

Sun Wujin hurriedly said, "Huai'an City is a big fat piece of meat. These people are used to fighting with the thieves and the others. Now they are all tyrants. When they smell the smell of meat, they will definitely rush to Huai'an. At that time, I will forgive Sun Erlang for his unpleasant words. Our Huai Army can't even beat someone with a little finger."

"Now you say that the officials around Huai'an really want to surround us and regard us as dishes on the table. Do we still have the right to invite us to the hospital?"

Lu Si looked at everyone.

Everyone was also a little confused at this time. They didn't know that there were so many official troops around Huai'an City, especially a cavalry.

Cheng Lin spoke and asked, "What does Brother Lu mean?"

"Stay in Huai'an and will surely die!"

Lu Si was determined.

Zheng Wancai shook his head and said, "If you really can't defend Huai'an, at worst we can go back to our hometown."

Sun Wujin laughed after hearing this: "Secretary of the Zheng team, we can't hold on with Huai'an City. If you leave the city, the cavalry chases you. Where can you run?"

"What should I do?" Zheng Wancai was a little stunned.

"The only way to break the deadlock is to abandon Huai'an and attack Yangzhou."

Lu Si proposed that there are three benefits to attack Yangzhou. The first is that it can obtain space for the Huai Army to move around; the second is that there are not many official troops in Yangzhou, and the Huai Army can use the attack on Yangzhou to temper the team; the third is that someone is willing to recruit them when they go to Yangzhou.

"Who recruits us?"

Cheng Lin was puzzled. Lu Si just said that the government army would only regard them as fat and could not attract them.

"Shi Kefa, Minister of War in Nanjing."

Huai'an is surrounded by wolves. The Huai army is trapped in Huai'an and can only die. Only by strategic transfer can one have a way out. This is the policy that Lu Si secretly decided when he was in Taohuawu.

The purpose of attacking Huai'an City is to only make money, food and materials in the city.

In fact, Lu Si did not believe that Shi Kefa would recruit Huai Army at all, but he had to present the civil servant Shi Kefa and "tempt" everyone to go to Yangzhou with him.

Only through Shige's troops can we completely cut off the idea of ​​the Huai Army's desire to recruit peace.

Rebellion, there is no way to go back!

Cheng Lin frowned, then gritted his teeth and said, "If Brother Lu really said this, I would not object to going to Yangzhou, but I am afraid that most of them would not want to go."

"Someone must stay in Huai'an to restrain those officials for us, otherwise they will chase us and die in Yangzhou."

The one who spoke was Xia Dajun. The rest of the people were stunned at first, and then silently.
