Regarding the Baigang soldier who suddenly emerged to block the army's advance and suddenly withdrew and refused to continue to resist, Ma Wei and Liu Jing were question marks, so they watched them run away with their armor and armor, without even chasing them.

"General, this..."

Sun Ting looked at the direction of the retreat of Bai Gan soldiers in surprise.

Ma Wei was also stunned for a while, not knowing what was going on.

Liu Jing rode forward to meet Ma Wei and Sun Ting, but he was at a loss for the strange situation in front of him.

Ma Wei and Liu Dou discussed for a long time, and finally the two came to a conclusion.

"This team of men probably doesn't want to fight with us. They just have to come due to orders. But coming does not mean they will fight to the death. If the soldiers they trained themselves suffer too much, no one can bear it. Just a slander!"

Ma Wei finally summarized this idea.

"In other words, they just pretended to fight symbolically. If they really wanted to fight, they would immediately withdraw and not fight with us. Choose to wait and see?"

Liu Dou also reacted.

Ma Wei nodded.

"It seems that at this time, when encountering such a thing, no one is a fool, and no one is willing to be cannon fodder. Not only will they not get any benefits, but they may also compensate themselves. If they do not want to be involved, they can only choose to wait and see. Although they will not help us clearly, they will not be enemies with us until the situation is clear.

General Liu, this is a good thing, which shows that at least in Sichuan and Sichuan, the words of the Sichuan Governor were no longer useful. The troops from all over the country were frightened by our army and began to disobey him. I guess even if we attack directly to Chengdu, the Sichuan Governor would be isolated and helpless!"

Liu Dou was overjoyed.

"That's the reason! If we are stronger, when we can sweep the world, these cities will all open their doors to surrender? Hahahahahaha!"

Ma Wei also laughed, but as he smiled, Ma Wei suddenly sighed and said, "Before going to the war, General Xiao convened a military meeting and told us that although the court is a hundred times stronger than me, he really has to fight with all his strength, and the court is not as strong as he imagined.

At that time, I was in a sympathy with the other generals, thinking that General Xiao was trying to encourage me to wait and not to fight timidly, but who knew that it took more than one month to send troops, and it was less than two months before, and it was progressing so smoothly. Along the way, they were all smart people."

Liu Jing smiled and said, "Isn't it okay to be all smart people? This is easier to fight. If it is all hard and hard, how can we make progress so smoothly? After all, we have few soldiers, so this is the best! But it is also true. This battle is too easy. Those officials and men usually face me with their nostrils. Now, hum!"

Liu Jing was a bullied person, and now this situation is venting his anger. He is so happy.

Ma Wei thought a little more.

"That's right, but it can be seen how far the Ming Dynasty has reached. There are too many smart people. Everyone knows how to seek profit and avoid harm, but there are not many people who really dare to fight to the death. General Liu, do you think that if the northern enemy went south, would they have surrendered like this?"

刘綎瞬间明白了麻威的意思.

There are not many people who remember the shame of Jingkang and the shame of Yashan. The threat of the Northern Barbarians is still there. After the incident of the Northern Barbarians going south to Shanxi, it gave people a very panic. Everyone is worried that the Northern Barbarians will go south again.

Nowadays, the mainland of Ming Dynasty is like a layer of paper, broken with one stab. The Ming Empire, known as a million troops, has no power to fight back against the 100,000 Zhennan Army. Even the local officials and troops are not willing to resist, but are waiting and watching one by one.

Ma Wei couldn't help but imagine that if the Northern Lu marched like this, would they have waited and watched like this?

Will the Northern Lu bring the Ming Dynasty back to the barbarian era again like the way he destroyed the Song Dynasty?

How far has the Ming Dynasty reached now?

If the troubles are successful in the future, will the Ming Dynasty become better?

If the Ming Dynasty could not get better, why did Xiao Ruxun raise an army?

What is the significance of their launching this war?

Liu Jing suddenly fell silent.

Ma Wei didn't say anything anymore.

The two continued to reorganize the troops and then advanced towards Jianwei. The Baigan soldiers were no longer seen along the way. In the afternoon of the same day, Ma Wei and Liu Zhen soldiers came to Jianwei's city. Cannons were set up. Before the city was attacked, the gate of Jianwei was wide open. Jianwei's guard tied up the magistrate of Jianwei County to open the city and surrender.

Before Ma Wei could persuade the surrender, the county magistrate of Jianwei knelt down and begged for surrender, saying that he was willing to rectify the trouble and not do anything for the traitors, but only asked the Zhennan Army not to hurt his wife, children and young people in the city.

Ma Wei's mood was not happier, but instead became a little heavier.

Why, people are just waiting and watching, not resisting?

Without real evidence, Shen Yiguan even occupied the title of righteousness, while Xiao Ruxun just claimed that he did not even do anything forged the emperor's edict to raise an army to fight against rebellion. He simply launched a northern expedition. Before the situation in Jiangnan was clear, they gave up resistance.

If things go wrong in the future, can these people be trusted by putting them in the place?

Ma Wei finally understood why Xiao Ruxun was not worried about the court's "million-strong army".

If millions of heroes have this kind of virtue, it would be useless to have another million.

While feeling heavy, Ma Wei was full of contempt for the so-called court in the north, and had no doubt about whether Xiao Ruxun could rectify the trouble and succeed in the Northern Expedition.

Of course, the same is true for Liu Jing.

After resting for a night, the army continued to attack without stopping.

On August 27, the same day when Xiao Ruxun captured Guilin, Shen Yiguan received news that Li Rusong did not send troops south but led his troops eastward to suppress the rebellion of the Haixi Jurchens.

Shen Yiguan immediately turned dark and slapped the table in front of him hard.

"A bastard! He dares to resist the order?!"

Shen Yiguan roared at the messenger.

The messenger was so scared that his face turned pale and he kowtowed constantly on the ground.

"The chief minister calms his anger, the chief minister calms his anger, and the officials are helpless. They suddenly said there was a war report, saying that the Haixi Jurchens raised 30,000 troops and invaded the border. He wanted to deal with the Haixi Jurchens, so they asked the court to give him two months to calm the border troubles, and then..."

"Stupid! You believe whatever he says?! Why don't you stop it?!"

Shen Yiguan continued to roar.

The messenger was frightened and trembled, and could not say a word.

The tycoon Xiao next to him couldn't stand it anymore, so he spoke tentatively: "The Chief Auxiliary, Li has a great authority in Liaodong, and his elite soldiers are servants. He only listened to Li Rusong's orders. This is not a matter of one day or two. A mere messenger of the court can't do anything to him."

Shen Yiguan stared at Daheng Xiao, making Daheng Xiao look stunned, and then immediately lowered his head.

"Li Rusong is not here, what about Li Chengliang? Can he lead the soldiers anymore?!"

Chen Yiguan continued to shout angrily.

"Li Chengliang said he couldn't afford to be ill and did not see outsiders..."

The messenger said tremblingly.

"ah!!"

Chen Yiguan grabbed the tea bowl in his hand and threw it out hard. The tea bowl hit the ground and was smashed to pieces.

The officials in the room were so scared that they didn't dare to let out a word.
