Jiujiang is an important city in Jiangxi, which is close to Poyang Lake and the Yangtze River. It is the most important military city to guard Jiangxi. In addition, the Chidaotong has reached this place. The only Chidao building city in Jiangxi is now stable.
After stabilizing the pressure in Nanchang Prefecture, in just two years, the second largest prefecture in Jiangxi has a vague trend of taking the lead.
However, during these days, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. The new army and 30,000 to 50,000 troops from all over the country were moved in, and the guard began to be tight. Even the nearby county towns also had heavy troops. Youqi and scouts were spread outside the city. This was originally dangerous.
In an extremely terrible place, people should have been panic, and a large number of refugees fled abroad emerged.
What makes people strange is that not only does not happen, but this Jiujiang City is much more lively than before.
Things have changed. The war that once thought it was hateful also has many benefits. For example, tens of thousands of troops gathered together. Although there is food and forage from the court, the court still has some places that cannot be taken care of.
In addition, the war is about to begin, and the rewards from the court have been issued, not to mention the new army, it is impossible to rely on rewards alone, and these people have become popular in the eyes of merchants.
What disappointed the merchants was that the richest new army did not earn much money. After the new army arrived in Jiujiang, they were not allowed to go out of camp. They practiced every day, never interrupted from morning to night, except for the big one.
The battalion's military officers bought several cows, dozens of pigs and some fragmented ingredients every day, and it was almost unprofitable.
Fortunately, not all the official troops are like the New Army, and the other battalions of military horses are not as strict as that. From the streets to brothels and casinos, the officials and soldiers are crowded with people. These people are shouting, although they are very domineering, but
He would pay the money obediently. It was not that these lawless soldiers changed their temperaments, but that it was said that a few days ago, the Beizhen Fushi ordered the local Jinyiwei and the Anti-Securities Bureau to take the streets, and any business dared to bully them
, do it immediately.
The order was Liu Chengfeng, who was the governor of Liangjiang's military affairs. It is said that the Duke Lian had arrived in Jiujiang last night, but he did not show up in public. He was very low-key. Even if the official army on the street had no king's laws, he would not dare to let go.
Even if you don’t know this ruthless man, you have heard of him. Whoever dares to kill someone if he violates his taboo?
In the eyes of outsiders, Duke Lian seemed to be out of light after arriving in Jiujiang, and he did not have the majesty of an imperial envoy to command military affairs. However, in the ears of some insiders, he knew that this guy who could cause trouble everywhere he went was not a good person.
Simple. As soon as the person arrived, he issued three military orders in a row.
First, all military information must be sent to Duke Lian’s headquarters as soon as possible, and no mistakes must be made.
The second route is to be on guard, and the navy on the other side of Poyang Lake must also be on standby.
The third way, he denounced the commanders of various battalions, thousands of households, and ordered them to restrain their troops and practice day and night.
The first one is easy to understand. After all, this imperial envoy is here to overview military affairs. And the general commander must first be well-informed so that he can react at any time. The second one is also the only way for the imperial envoy to supervise the war.
But the third article is a bit of a swearing person, and let everyone restrain their subordinates. Isn’t it mean that in the past, everyone indulged the people who were superior to the law and let them practice day and night, so everyone should learn the new army?
The military officers in the army are different from those outside. These people are local emperors. Although civil officials look down on them, they have the life and death of countless people in their hands on this acre of land in the military office. Therefore, these
People are not only greedy, but also the most popular. They will not provoke others, but they will never be ambiguous when someone points fingers in front of them.
Liu Chengfeng's third order is simply a curse. You are a good commander and plan your own strategy. Why do you still have to take care of the troops? Is this hand too long?
Therefore, as soon as Liu Chengfeng arrived, the army had a lot of resentment.
Although King Ning was in trouble near Nanchang Prefecture, Jiujiang was still peaceful. Except for the occasional thieves in Poyang Lake, no thieves appeared. On the third day, the latest military information was passed on to Jiujiang.
Immediately, in Liu Chengfeng's headquarters, military generals from all walks of life began to convene, and the first military meeting of Jiujiang Prefecture opened.
At least the people who came were military officers at the commander level, and of course, there was also the newly appointed governor of Jiangxi by the court. The former governor of Jiangxi had died in his country, and Nanchang and other places also fell into the hands of King Ning. The court still occupied a part of Jiangxi. In fact, even the entire Jiangxi
All of them fell, and this governor was also set up, but Nanchang was not allowed to go, so he had to temporarily resettle in Jiujiang Prefecture.
The governor is named Zhu Shimao, who is said to be from Jiangxi. He was also a bachelor's degree in the Hanlin Academy a few months ago. This time he was directly released and ordered to inspect and pacify Jiangxi.
The governor is the highest official in the local military and political affairs. It can be said that everyone has to rely on him. For example, the commanders of those military offices seem to be temporarily returning to Liu Chengfeng to control him, but once the turmoil is quelled, the governor has the power.
Ask them.
Zhu Shimao came to serve as the chief official of the border, which was said to be jointly recommended by the cabinet, and Zhu Futai arrived at Jiujiang almost at the same time as Liu Chengfeng. However, Liu Chengfeng and his civil and military journey were different, and both sides did not have much dealing with each other.
Today's meeting is the first time everyone has met.
The flower hall in the pedestal is relatively simple, with more than a dozen people sitting inside. Zhu Shimao naturally sat at the bottom of his left hand. Liu Chengfeng was the imperial envoy, and he was also considered half an imperial envoy. Liu Chengfeng was naturally the chief general.
No one has any objection to this second-in-command.
But what is indignant is that Qian Fang, the commander of the new army, actually sat in the first position on the right. This position is usually the third-in-command. What is Qian Fang? He was just like that when he was in Xuanfu.
Well, in this position, it is not his turn to be on his head if he is a senior.
However, Qian Fang is said to be the earliest person to come. His butt had fallen from the chair and no one could go up to argue with him. The other commanders were displeased, but they could only sit in the lower head.
Although everyone has their own thoughts, everyone wants to see who this Duke Lian is and what kind of style he is.
Everyone waited anxiously for a moment, and then they saw a man wearing a python robe coming in with his hands in his arms. This man was very young, with a magnificent temperament, with a starry eyebrow and a high nose bridge, but his face was very bad. Although he was handsome, he was always
With a very cold temperament, it is daunting.
Liu Chengfeng walked in step by step, without looking sideways, and sat on his head without hesitation. Before he could speak, Qian Fang was the first to leave his seat and salute, saying, "I have seen the adults."
The other commanders were shocked that Liu Chengfeng was so young. Seeing Qian Fang's actions, they all stood up reluctantly and saluted with their hands: "I have met the lord."
Only Jiangxi Governor Zhu Shimao sat steadily on the chair, but nodded to Liu Chengfeng, saying hello.
After all, the identity of the governor is different. In addition, Zhu Futai is from a Hanlin family and has never seen any world. He is a second-rank chief official and has no reason to salute a military officer.
Liu Chengfeng just nodded with a calm and then looked down, and said in a heavy tone: "It's all our first meeting. My name is Liu Chengfeng. I believe everyone has heard of it. It's good for everyone to know me. Now the military affairs are urgent.
, I don’t say anything off topic to you, it’s better to be straightforward.”
His straightforward words made people feel that the imperial envoy seemed to have no interest in getting along with everyone. This made people feel a little angry. Although you are the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei and the Duke of the State, you are now quelling the rebellion of the court.
, Don’t you rely on everyone? You don’t even want to lower your posture at all. You are so arrogant, where can you put your face?
Although I think about it, the matter in this scene has to be resolved. Everyone laughed and said, "I really admire you for your wholeheartedness."
Liu Chengfeng chuckled softly, not sure if he had flattered him, but he gave everyone a good face. However, this good face was very stingy, and only existed for a moment, and then he became serious again.
Chengfeng glanced at everyone and said in a heavy tone: "The latest military information has been sent just now. The bandits advanced eastward and broke into Raozhou yesterday. It is said that there was a bandits' supporter in Raozhou City.
At night, the thief army was opened and the thief army was released into the city. The official army was defeated, and one out of ten was left. Except for a few defeated soldiers who had to retreat to Anqing, the rest of the people were killed and surrendered. In short, the thief army won the first battle.
Now.”
This is the latest news. In the hearts of many people, King Ning gathered a mob after all, and the number of people was only 100,000. The official army was several times higher than him. King Ning would sooner or later be defeated, but who would have thought that
, Just now, they took Raozhou with thunder, which was also close to Poyang Lake. If they go north, it will be Anqing Prefecture. Once the thief army takes the opportunity to take Anqing, the gateway to Nanjing will be completely opened.
The war will not only burn to Jiangnan, but will even be affected by Jiangbei.
Therefore, the news came out, and a buzzing discussion suddenly came from the hall, and many people looked surprised and looked a little panicked.
Raozhou Prefecture has accumulated 30,000 to 40,000 troops. Like Jiujiang, they are all sieges of Nanchang. It has only been a few days since it was said, and more importantly, once Raozhou is occupied by the thief army, then
Jiujiang's strategic value has completely lost, because whether it is the Northern Expedition or the capture of Nanjing, there are only two roads to go, one is to go to Jiujiang, the other is to bypass Jiujiang, first take Raozhou, and then go north along Poyang Lake. Now Rao
The state is gone, and people can simply bypass Jiujiang. What's the use of having so many soldiers here?
